hout losing the capability to perform their safety functions. The design of nonsafety-related equipment, such as the pressurizer relief tank, should be consistent with this objective. GDC 2 applies to SRP Section 5.4.11 and the reviewer must verify that the design of the pressurizer relief system is consistent with transient analyses of related or adjacent systems and that a failure or malfunction of the pressurizer relief tank system will not adversely affect the performance (in accordance with applicable criteria) of safety- related SSCs. Meeting the requirements of GDC 2 provides assurance that the failure of the pressurizer relief tank system will not prevent SSCs important to safety from performing their intended safety functions. 2. Compliance with GDC 4 requires that the design of components important to safety accommodates the effects of, and is compatible with, environmental conditions associated with normal operation, maintenance, testing, and postulated accidents, including loss-of-coolant accidents and dynamic effects such as pipe whip, missiles, and discharging fluids. The design of nonsafety-related equipment such as the pressurizer relief tank should be consistent with that design objective. GDC 4 applies to SRP Section 5.4.11 and the reviewer must verify that a failure of the pressurizer relief tank system will not generate missiles or adverse environmental conditions that could damage safety-related SSCs. Meeting the requirements of GDC 4 provides assurance that the pressurizer relief tank system will not generate missiles or cause adverse environmental conditions that could damage safety-related SSCs to the degree that they cannot perform their intended safety functions. III. REVIEW PROCEDURES The reviewer will select material from the procedures described below, as may be appropriate for a particular case. 5.4.11-6 Revision 3 - March 2007 These review procedures are based on the identified SRP acceptance criteria. For deviations from these
