Content:
impacts and fires is such that the plant safety-related SSCs meet the GDC 3 and GDC 4 criteria, then 10 CFR Part 100 requirements are considered to be met and a conclusion of the following type may be included in the staff’s safety evaluation report: The staff concludes that the operation of the plant in the vicinity of ___________________ does not present an undue risk to the health and safety of the public from aircraft hazards and meets the relevant requirements of GDC 3 and 4. This conclusion is based on the staff having independently verified the applicant’s assessment of aircraft hazards, including aircraft fires and impacts, at the site and that, if the appropriate safety-related SSCs are designed to withstand the aircraft selected as the design-basis aircraft, then the probability of an aircraft strike causing radiological consequences in excess of the exposure guidelines of 10 CFR Part 100 is less than about 10-7 per year. For Design Certification Reviews The following statement should be preceded by a list of the applicable site parameters used for the plant: The applicant has selected the site parameters referenced above for plant design inputs (a subset of which is included as Tier 1 information), but does not claim that they are representative of any particular percentile of possible sites in the United States, and does not assert the acceptability of the basis for the choice of values with respect to siting. The aircraft hazard is site-specific and will be addressed by the COL applicant. This should include the provision of information sufficient to demonstrate that the design of the plant falls within the values of the actual site characteristics specified in a COL or CP application. V. IMPLEMENTATION The staff will use this SRP section in performing safety evaluations of DC applications and license applications submitted by applicants pursuant to 10 CFR Part 50 or 10 CFR Part 52. Except when the applicant proposes an acceptable alternative method
