ered in the evaluation of sites, which indicate the nature and proximity of man related hazards (e.g. airports, dams, transportation routes, military and chemical facilities) that must be evaluated to establish whether the plant design can accommodate commonly occurring hazards, and whether the risk of other hazards is very low. The acceptance criteria are also based on 10 CFR 50.34(a)(1)(i) as it relates to the site evaluation factors identified in 10 CFR Part 100. 2. For ESP applications, the acceptance criteria are based on meeting the relevant requirements of 10 CFR 52.17(a)(vii) as they relate to the factors to be considered in the evaluation of sites which require the location and description of any industrial, military, or transportation facilities and routes, and the requirements of 10 CFR 52.17(a)(ix) as they relate to compliance with 10 CFR Part 100. 3. For COL applications, the acceptance criteria are based on meeting the relevant requirements of CFR 52.79(a)(1)(iv) as they relate to the factors to be considered in the evaluation of sites, which require the location and description of industrial, military, or transportation facilities and routes, and the requirements of 10 CFR 52.79(a)(1)(vi) as they relate to compliance with 10 CFR Part 100. SRP Acceptance Criteria Specific SRP acceptance criteria acceptable to meet the relevant requirements of the NRC's regulations identified above are as follows for the review described in this SRP section. The SRP is not a substitute for the NRC's regulations, and compliance with it is not required. However, an applicant is required to identify differences between the design features, analytical techniques, and procedural measures proposed for its facility and the SRP acceptance criteria and evaluate how the proposed alternatives to the SRP acceptance criteria provide acceptable methods of compliance with the NRC regulations. 1. Event Probability The identification of design-basis events resulting from the presence of
