irements are reviewed by MTEBEMCB as 8 described in SRP Section 5.3.1. 5. Shipment and Installation Protective measures taken during shipment of the reactor vessel and its installation at the site are reviewed by MTEBEMCB to verify that the as-built characteristics of the reactor 9 vessel are not degraded by improper handling. 6. Operating Conditions All the operating conditions as they relate to the integrity of the reactor vessel are reviewed by MTEBEMCB as described in SRP Section 5.3.2, "Pressure-Temperature 10 Limits." 7. Inservice Surveillance Plans and provisions for inservice surveillance of the reactor vessel are reviewed by MTEBEMCB as described in SRP Sections 5.3.1 and by ECGB as described in SRP Section 5.2.4.11 Review Interfaces:12 This SRP Section involves the integrated review of SRP Sections 5.2.3, 5.2.4, 5.3.1, and 5.3.2 as they relate to reactor vessel integrity. The EMCB has responsibility for these SRP sections, except for 5.2.4 which is the primary responsibility of ECGB (EMCB is secondary review branch). The review interfaces with these SRP sections are described in the above Areas of Review.13 In addition, the MTEBEMCB will coordinate evaluations of other branches that interface with 14 the overall review of the reactor vessel as follows: 5.3.3-3 DRAFT Rev. 2 - April 1996 1. The Mechanical Engineering Branch (MEB)(EMEB) reviews the reactor vessel design 15 16 regarding compliance with §50.55a of 10 CFR Part 50 and regarding applicable Code Cases, as part of its primary review responsibility for SRP Sections 5.2.1.1 and 5.2.1.2. 2. The review for Quality Assurance is coordinated and performed by the Quality Assurance Branch (QAB) Quality Assurance and Maintenance Branch (HQMB) as part 17 of its primary review responsibility for SRP Sections 17.1 and 17.2. For those areas of review identified above as part of the primary review responsibility of other branches, the acceptance criteria necessary for the review and their method of application
