ddressing the transport of radioactivity in surface water and groundwater and deriving radionuclide concentrations in unrestricted areas, is the responsibility of the hydrologic engineering staff. The corresponding guidance for the Health Physics staff is described in this BTP and the guidance for the hydrologic engineering staff is provided in SRP Section 2.4.13. The review responsibilities are shared as follows: 1. The health physics staff will confirm the applicant’s approach used in developing the postulated tank failure scenario, will confirm the radiological source term for the assumed failed tank and components, will confirm the assumptions applied in modeling exposures and doses to members of the public, conduct an independent assessment of dose results, will confirm that dose results are consistent with the SRP acceptance criteria, and will determine whether the results of the analysis warrant, (as TS) the imposition of maximum radioactivity limits in the tank(s) identified by the applicant. The heath physics staff will coordinate its review with other technical disciplines, including civil engineering in evaluating building plant structures and foundations and mechanical engineering for the review of plant systems and components and design of mitigating features. The corresponding guidance for the health physics staff is described in SRP Section 11.2 and in this BTP. 2. In a parallel effort, the hydrologic engineering staff will review and evaluate the applicant’s approach in modeling the transport of radioactivity in surface water and groundwater, will confirm the validity of the defined point of entry in unrestricted areas in light of available site-specific information and stated assumptions, and will verify the resulting radionuclide concentrations at the point of entry in unrestricted areas. The hydrologic engineering staff will confirm whether the information and results comply with the acceptance criteria of SRP Section 2.4.13 and the
