Content:
eference a previous ESP, staff evaluation findings will include the evaluation findings identified above for ESP reviews. For a COL referencing a previous ESP, 2.5.1-2 Draft Revision 5 – August 2013 staff should refer to the previous ESP and include an evaluation of any new pertinent information that might have been discovered after the ESP was issued that affects the design and operability of the proposed facility. For a CP application, findings will be similar to the ESP findings. For an OL application, findings will include evaluation of excavations for safety-related structures. For COL reviews, the findings will also summarize the staff’s evaluation of requirements and restrictions (e.g., interface requirements and site parameters) and COL action items relevant to this SRP section. V. IMPLEMENTATION The staff will use this SRP section in performing safety evaluations of ESP, COL, CP, applications submitted by applicants pursuant to 10 CFR 100.23, 10 CFR Part 52 or 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix A, and GDC 2, as applicable. The staff will use the method described herein to evaluate conformance with Commission regulations. If the applicant proposes an alternative method for complying with specified portions of the Commission’s regulations, the applicant must demonstrate the acceptability of its alternate method in meeting those regulations. The guidance of this SRP section has been accepted as an alternative method for complying with 10 CFR 52.47(a)(9), “Contents of applications; technical information,” which states, in part, that the application must contain an evaluation of the standard plant design against the SRP revision in effect six months before the docket date of the application, FSAR does not deviate from the design assumptions made by the NRC staff while preparing this SRP section. If the design assumptions deviate from the SRP, the staff will use the SRP consistent with 10 CFR 52.47(a)(9). Alternatively, the SRP section might be revised consistent
