"Application to Engineering Design, Seismically Induced Floods and Water Waves and Other Design Conditions," requires that the design basis for seismically induced floods and water waves be considered in the plant design to prevent undue risk to the health and safety of the public. Under SRP Section 3.4.1, the reviewer determines the adequacy of the plant design for protecting SSCs from floods and related phenomena, including seismically induced flooding and high groundwater levels. This SRP section also examines the adequacy of the plant design for protecting against flooding caused by failure of liquid-carrying components within the plant. Regulatory Guide 1.59 specifies acceptable methods for determining design basis flood conditions that should be accommodated by the plant design. Regulatory Guide 1.102 specifies acceptable measures for protection against floods. Meeting the requirements of GDC 2, which includes the requirements of 10 CFR Part 100, provides assurance that the plant will retain the capability to shut down safely during a PMF event or under flood conditions that originate within the plant.40 3.4.1-5 DRAFT Rev. 3 - April 1996 III. REVIEW PROCEDURE The review procedures below are used during the construction permit (CP) or early site permit41 reviews to determine that the design criteria and bases and the preliminary design as set forth in the preliminary safety analysis report (PSAR) meet the acceptance criteria given in subsection II of this SRP section. For the review of an application for an operating license (OL) or a combined license (COL), applications the procedures are utilized to verify that the initial design criteria and bases have been appropriately implemented in the final design as set forth in the final safety analysis report (FSAR). The reviewer will select and emphasize material from the paragraphs below as may be appropriate for a particular case. The reviews of flood elevations and other hydrologic considerations pertinent to
