Content:
mining the acceptability of the mass and energy release data in the minimum containment pressure analysis. This information is derived from the applicant's evaluation of ECCS performance capability in accordance with 10 CFR 50.46. The specific acceptance criteria and review procedures are contained in the referenced SRP sections. II. ACCEPTANCE CRITERIA Requirements Acceptance criteria are based on the relevant requirements of 10 CFR 50.46, which allows either an acceptable ECCS evaluation model that realistically describes the behavior of the 6.2.1.5-3 Revision 3 - March 2007 reactor during LOCAs or an ECCS evaluation model developed in compliance with 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix K. The primary reviewer accepts the analysis if it meets the following requirements, as applicable: 1. 10 CFR 50.46(a)(1)(i), with respect to an acceptable ECCS evaluation model that realistically describes the behavior of the reactor during LOCAs or 2. 10 CFR 50.46(a)(1)(ii), with respect to an ECCS evaluation model developed in compliance with 10 CFR 50, Appendix K, paragraph I.D.2, which requires that the containment pressure used for evaluating cooling effectiveness during reflood and spray cooling not exceed pressure calculated conservatively for that purpose. 3. 10 CFR 52.47(b)(1), which requires that a DC application contain the proposed inspections, tests, analyses, and acceptance criteria (ITAAC) that are necessary and sufficient to provide reasonable assurance that, if the inspections, tests, and analyses are performed and the acceptance criteria met, a plant that incorporates the design certification is built and will operate in accordance with the design certification, the provisions of the Atomic Energy Act, and the NRC's regulations. 4. 10 CFR 52.80(a), which requires that a COL application contain the proposed inspections, tests, and analyses, including those applicable to emergency planning, that the licensee shall perform, and the acceptance criteria that are necessary and
