s, the approach used is equivalent to, or is superior to that referenced in the standard or peer review process document. Alternatively, the reviewer may rely on a demonstration that the impact on the results used in the application is not significant. IV.2 Significant Assumptions and Approximations Assessed The reviewer should be satisfied that the assumptions and approximations made to address the sources of uncertainty identified as having the potential to significantly impact the particular PRA results have been characterized in an acceptable manner given the current state of knowledge, and that the characterization has taken into account the results of the peer review. V. IMPLEMENTATION This SRP is intended to be used in conjunction with, and in support of, an application-specific SRP. 1 Copies may be obtained from the General Accounting Office, 441 G Street, NW., Washington, DC 20548; phone (202)512-6000. 2 Copies may be obtained from the American Society of Mechanical Engineers, Three Park Avenue, New York, NY 10016-5990; phone (212)591-8500. 3 Copies may be obtained from the Nuclear Energy Institute, Attn: Mr. Biff Bradley, Suite 400, 1776 I Street, NW, Washington, DC 20006-3708; phone (202)739-8083. 4 Copies are available electronically through NRC’s web site, <www.nrc.gov> through the Electronic Reading Room to Commission Documents.
