mmary of the applicant’s coverage, the staff’s basis for review and acceptance criteria, and the findings of the review. The following is a brief representation of typical evaluation findings: The staff concludes that the radiation protection design features are acceptable and meet the relevant requirements of 10 CFR Part 20, 10 CFR Part 50, GDC 19 and 61, and 10 CFR Part 70. This conclusion is based on the following. 12.3-12.4-28 Revision 5 – September 2013 The radiation protection design features at [plant name] are intended to help maintain occupational radiation exposures within regulatory limits and ALARA, consistent with 10 CFR 20.1101(b) and the definition of ALARA in 10 CFR 20.1003, as well as RGs 8.8, and 8.10, the dose-limiting provisions of 10 CFR 20.1201, 10 CFR 20.1202, 10 CFR 20.1203, and 10 CFR 20.1204, and the non-effluent limits in 10 CFR 20.1301 and 10 CFR 20.1302. In addition, the design features are consistent with the radiation exposure and radiation source control requirements in 10 CFR 20.1406, 10 CFR 20.1601, 10 CFR 20.1602, 10 CFR 20.1801, 10 CFR 20.1901, 10 CFR 20.1902, and 10 CFR 20.1905. Many of these design features have been incorporated as a result of the applicant’s radiation protection design review and from radiation exposure experience gained during the operation of other nuclear power plants. Include examples of design features incorporated to reduce radiation to workers during maintenance operations, reduce radiation sources where operations must be performed, allow quick entry and easy access, provide remote operation capability or reduce the time required for work in radiation fields, and examples of other features that reduce radiation exposure of personnel. These design features are consistent with those contained in RGs 8.8 and 8.38 and are acceptable. Plant design and layout facilitates the control of access to and work within plant areas in accordance with the requirements of 10 CFR 20.1601, 10 CFR 20.1602, 10 CFR
