e COL applicant references a DC, an early site permit (ESP) or other NRC approvals (e.g., manufacturing license, site suitability report or topical report). For review of both DC and COL applications, SRP Section 14.3 should be followed for the review of ITAAC. The review of ITAAC cannot be completed until after the completion of this section. IV. EVALUATION FINDINGS The reviewer verifies that the applicant has provided sufficient information and that the review and calculations (if applicable) support conclusions of the following type to be included in the staff's safety evaluation report. The reviewer also states the bases for those conclusions. The staff concludes that the plant design is acceptable and meets the requirements of GDC 2. This conclusion is based on the following: The applicant has met the requirements of GDC 2 with respect to the structures' capability to withstand the effects of the highest flood and groundwater levels so that their design reflects 1. appropriate consideration for the most severe flood recorded for the site with an appropriate margin, 2. appropriate combination of the effects of normal and accident conditions with the effect of the natural phenomena, and 3. the importance of the safety functions to be performed. The applicant has designed the plant structures with sufficient margin to prevent structural damage for the most severe flood and groundwater levels for the site and used appropriate dynamic effects for structural design, in accordance with U.S. Army Coastal Engineering Research Center, “Shore Protection Manual” (Vol. I, June 2002, reprinted from 1973 edition and Vol. II, June 2002, reprinted from 1973 edition) or in EM 1110-2-1100, Coastal Engineering Manual, Part II, Chapter 1, “Water Wave Mechanics,” U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, April 30, 2002 as applicable, so that the requirements of Item 1 listed above are met. In addition, the design of seismic Category I structures, as required by Item 2 listed above, has
