t the applicant used the method and guidance described in SRP Sections 2.4.13, SRP 11.2 using BTP 11-5, SRP 11.3 using BTP 11-6, and the analysis of RG 1.143 in assigning the safety classifications of RWMS for design purposes. 4. The staff has reviewed the proposed augmentation of programmatic elements in assessing the adequacy of the design and resulting effects on the development of associated radioactive source terms. The staff’s evaluation and conclusion of the acceptability of the augmented programmatic elements are addressed in SER 11.1-16 Revision 4 – January 2016 Section 13.4, “Operational Programs,” and relevant SER sections for the systems and components identified in the supplemental or new programmatic elements. 5. For an ESP application, the staff confirms that the applicant has provided enough information for the staff to conclude that the application provides a bounding assessment in demonstrating the capability to comply with the regulatory requirements of 10 CFR Part 20 and 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix I design objectives. The staff’s evaluation confirmed that physical attributes of the site that could affect the design basis of SSCs (in the context of this SRP section and SRP Sections 11.2 and 11.3) that are important to safety or risk significant are reflected in the site characteristics, design parameters, and conditions stipulated in the ESP, including COL action items. The staff’s finding are presented in SER Sections 11.2 and 11.3 in addressing the requirements of 10 CFR Part 20 for effluent concentration limits and dose limits for members of the public, and 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix I design objectives and ALARA provisions. The staff confirms that the approach used by the applicant in developing the annual average liquid and gaseous effluent source terms is consistent with the identified type of reactor design, as presented in the DC or other selected reactor technology. For a coolant source term based on two or more types of reactor
