Content:
o mitigate accidents or transients or are used in plant EOPs (i.e. radiation monitors or radiation protection features described in Section 12.3), are capable of fulfilling their intended functions. A leakage control program for systems outside of containment that contain (or might contain) accident source term concentration of radioactive materials following an accident, that satisfies the requirement of 10 CFR 50.34(f)(2)(xxvi), has been described by the applicant. The utility management structure and technical resources meet the criteria in NUREG-0731 and are acceptable. On the basis of the information presented in the [CP PSAR, OL FSAR, DC FSAR, or COL FSAR] by the applicant, the staff concludes that the applicant intends to implement a radiation protection program that will maintain in-plant radiation exposures as far below the applicable limits of 10 CFR Part 20 as is reasonably achievable and will maintain radiation exposures ALARA. The applicant described the radiation protection program in conformance with 10 CFR 20.1101. The program and its implementation milestones are included within the license condition on operational program implementation. V. IMPLEMENTATION The staff will use this SRP section in performing safety evaluations of DC applications and license applications submitted by applicants pursuant to 10 CFR Part 50 or 10 CFR Part 52. Except when the applicant proposes an acceptable alternative method for complying with specified portions of the Commission’s regulations, the staff will use the method described herein to evaluate conformance with Commission regulations. The provisions of this SRP section apply to reviews of applications submitted six months or more after the date of issuance of this SRP section, unless superseded by a later revision. The referenced regulatory guides and NUREGs include implementation schedules for conformance to parts of the method discussed herein. VI. REFERENCES 1. 10 CFR Part 19, “Notices Instructions, and
