f a single entry in these columns is sufficient to address the design commitment. If multiple entries are required in these columns, each entry is numbered using the lower case Roman numeral numbering format “i, ii, iii, and so on.” Entries in the “Acceptance Criteria” column should align with the entries in the “Inspections, Tests, DG-1325, Page-76 and Analyses” column and should have corresponding numbering. For a specific DC; inspection, test, and analysis; or acceptance criteria entry, which has multiple parts, the individual parts should be listed using bullets. The number of ITAAC tables provided will depend on the individual applicant or on whether a DC is incorporated by reference or the COL applicant has chosen to provide its own “ITAAC Design Descriptions.” In either case, the ITAAC incorporated into Appendix C of the COL will be listed with a sequential ITAAC index number starting from 1 to XX. DAC are a set of prescribed limits, parameters, procedures, and attributes that the NRC relies on in a limited number of technical areas to make a final safety determination to support a DC. DAC are designated as “{{DAC}}” in the “Inspections, Tests, and Analyses” column and “Acceptance Criteria” column of the ITAAC tables where appropriate. Section C.2.8 provides explanatory information and guidance on this topic. The applicant should minimize the use of codes and standards in the ITAAC, with exceptions granted on a case-by-case basis. Instead, the applicant should state the applicable requirements from the regulations, codes, or standards instead of referencing them. It is more important to provide substantive ITAAC verification criteria (even if by reference) than to leave the ITAAC acceptance criteria open for interpretation. In general, the specific code edition, volume, version, date, and other such information should be specified in the FSAR rather than in the ITAAC or Tier 1 of the DCD.
