pent fuel. 4. The design meets the requirements of General Design Criterion 44 regarding decay heat removal redundancy and power supplies, since the system has the capability to remove decay heat from the spent fuel under both normal operating and accident conditions. The system has redundancy so that decay heat can be removed assuming a single active failure coincident with a loss of all offsite power, and is designed with isolation capability of system components and piping, if required, such that the ability of the system to remove decay heat will not be compromised. 9.1.3-10 Rev. 1 - July 1981 5. The system meets the inspection and testing requirements of General Design Criteria 45 and 46 since the system is designed and constructed with suitable clearances and location to allow periodic inspection of major components, and is designed to permit functional operational testing to assure structural integrity and system leak tightness, operability, and adequate performance of active system components. 6. The system is designed in accordance with the requirements of General Design Criterion 61 as it relates to the system design for fuel storage since the system has the following-design capabilities: the system has the capability for periodic testing of components important to safety. The system is designed to provide suitable shielding by maintaining a minimum water level above the fuel. There is redundancy and testability of the decay heat removal portions of the system, and the system is designed to prevent reduction in fuel storage coolant inventory under accident conditions in accordance with position C.6 of Regulatory Guide 1.13. The spent fuel pool cleanup portion of the system (1) provides the capability and capacity of removing radioactive materials, corrosion products, and impurities from the pool water and thus meets the require- ments of Criterion 61 as it relates to appropriate filtering systems for fuel cooling and storage, (2) reduces occupational
