2 - July 1981 USNRC STANDARD REWW'd! PLAN Standard review plans are prepared for the guidance of the Office of Nue'oar S-eactor Regulation staff responsible for the review of applications to construct and operate nuclear power plants. These documents are made available to the public as part of the Commission's policy to Inform the nuclear industry and the general public of regulatory procedures and policies. Standard review plEns are not substitutes for regulatory guides or the Commission's regulations and compliance with them Is not required. The standard review plan sections are keyed to the Standard Format and Content of Safety Analysis Reports for Nuclear Power Plants. Not all sections of the Standard Format have a corresponding Teview plan. Published standard review plans will be revised periodically. as appropriate, trco .....onmodate comments and to reflect new informa- tion and experience. Comments and suggestions for Improvement will be considered and should be sent to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission. Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation. Washington. D.C. similarity of the design with that for previously reviewed plants with satis- factory operating experience. There are no general design criteria or regula- tory guides that directly apply to the safety-related performance requirements for the design and use of the communication system during normal plant opera- tions and transient conditions. The PSB will use the following criterion to assess the system design capability: the communication system is acceptable if the integrated design of the system will provide effective communication between plant personnel in all vital areas during normal plant operation and during the full spectrum of accident or incident conditions (including fire) under maximum potential noise levels. III. REVIEW PROCEDURES The information provided in the SAR pertaining to the design of the communica- tion system will be evaluated to determine that intra-plant communication
