"Further, based on the staff's review of the site parameters in the (standard design) Tier 1, and a review of the selection methodology and criteria for the development of Tier 1 contained in DCD Tier 2 Section 14.3, the staff concludes that (the applicant) provided the top-level site parameters in Tier 1. Therefore, the staff also concludes that the site parameter information in Tier 1 meets the requirements for design certification applications in 10 CFR 52.47(a)(1)(iii), and is acceptable." For combined license reviews, the findings should support the following type of overall conclusive statement to be included in the staff's safety evaluation report: "(The applicant) provided sufficient information to demonstrate that the site parameters for the certified standard design in the DCD have been met by the proposed site, and that the analyses of the design in terms of the site parameters remain valid. Therefore, the site is acceptable for the standard design." V.
