Content:
ristics of the region and a description of the design bases of safety- related canals and reservoirs. The description should be sufficient to assess the acceptability of the site and the potential for those characteristics to influence the design of SSC important to safety. Meeting this requirement provides a level of assurance that canals and reservoirs important to safety have been designed to withstand the effects of the site’s physical characteristics and that the safety-related water supply to the proposed plant is adequate. III. REVIEW PROCEDURES The reviewer will select material from the procedures described below, as may be appropriate for a particular case. The procedures outlined below are used to review CP applications, ESP applications, and COL applications that do not reference an ESP to determine whether data and analyses for the proposed site meet the acceptance criteria given in Subsection II of this SRP section. For reviews of OL applications, these procedures are used to verify that the data and analyses remain valid and that the facility’s design specifications are consistent with these data. As applicable, reviews of OLs and COLs include a determination on whether the content of technical specifications related to hydrology-related site characteristics are acceptable and whether the technical specifications reflect consideration of any identified unique conditions. These review procedures are based on the identified SRP acceptance criteria. For deviations from these acceptance criteria, the staff should review the applicant’s evaluation of how the proposed alternatives provide an acceptable method of complying with the relevant NRC requirements identified in Subsection II. 1. Hydraulic Design Bases for Protection of Structures: The staff review protection of structures such as riprap from wave and runup action coincident with the highest flood water elevation that may result from one or a reasonable combination of flooding mechanisms
