Content:
15.6.5, Appendices A, B, and D. Each section will include an Evaluation Finding regarding the staff's independent analysis of the dose contribution and a reference to the table for all the LOCA doses calculated by the staff. The first section will be for the dose contribution from containment leakage in accordance with Appendix A of SRP Section 15.6.5. An Evaluation Finding of the following type should.be included in the section: The radiological consequences from containment leakage following a hypothetical design basis loss-of-coolant accident were evaluated. The staff reviewed the applicant's analysis and performed an inde- pendent calculation. The staff's calculation incorporates the appro- priate conservative assumptions of the regulatory positions in Regulatory Guide 1. (use Regulatory Guide 1.3 for a Bs facil- ity, Regulatory Guide 1.4 for a PWR facility). The atmospheric dispersion characteristics (X/Q values) stated in Section 2.3 of this report were used in the calculations. The results of the staff's calculation are presented in Table 15. _ and the contribution to the total radiological consequences is evaluated in Section 15. V. IMPLEMENTATION The following provides guidance to applicants and licensees regarding the staff's plans for using this SRP section. Except in those cases in which the applicant proposes an acceptable alternative method for complying with specified portions of the Commission's regulations, the method described herein will be used by the staff in its evaluation of conformance with Commission regulations. Implementation schedules for conformance to parts of the method discussed herein are contained in the referenced regulatory guides. VI.
