Content:
safety that are within the scope of this review have been properly classified, are within the scope of the applicant’s QA Program, and thus meet the relevant requirements of GDC 1, 2, and 60, 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, 10 CFR 50.34(a)(1), and 10 CFR Part 100, Appendix A. This conclusion is based on: 1. The applicant’s having met the requirements of GDC 1 by providing a commitment in the SAR that seismic Category I SSCs will be designed, constructed and operated under a QA Program, in compliance with the requirements of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B. 2. The applicant’s having met the requirements of GDC 2, 10 CFR Part 100, Appendix A and 10 CFR 50, Appendix S, by having properly classified SSCs important to safety as seismic Category I items in accordance with the positions of RG 1.29, RG 1.151, and RG 1.189. 3. Those SSCs not identified as seismic Category I, but whose failure could reduce the functioning of any seismic Category I feature to an unacceptable safety level or result in incapacitating injury to control room personnel, having been identified by the applicant for analysis during the detailed design stage to assure they will not fail during an SSE. 4. Radioactive waste system and fire protection SSCs requiring seismic design considerations having been identified consistent with the positions of RG 1.143 and RG 1.189. 5. For BWRs, the applicant’s having properly classified the main steam and associated systems in accordance with the guidance contained in Appendix A of SRP Section 3.2.2. For DC and COL reviews, the findings will also summarize the staff’s evaluation of requirements and restrictions (e.g., interface requirements and site parameters) and COL action items relevant to this SRP section. In addition, to the extent that the review is not discussed in other SER sections, the findings will summarize the staff’s evaluation of the ITAAC, including design acceptance criteria, as applicable. V. IMPLEMENTATION The staff will use this SRP section
