function as assumed in the safety analysis as part of its primary review responsibility for SRP Sections 7.2 through 7.5. The Chemical Engineering Branch (CMEB) reviews the functional and operational characteristics and potential failure modes of the CVCS as part of its primary review responsibility for SRP Section 9.3.4. The RSB reviewer makes use of this review to evaluate initiating causes and the expected sequence of events. The Core Performance Branch (CPB) reviews the values of the reactivity parameters used in the analyses as part of its primary review responsibility for SRP Section 4.3 and also performs, upon request, additional analyses related to these accidents for selected reactor types as part of its primary review responsibility for SRP Sections 4.2 and 4.4. For those areas of review identified above as being reviewed as part of the primary review responsibility of other branches, the acceptance criteria necessary for the review and their methods of application are contained in the referenced SRP section of the corresponding branch. II. ACCEPTANCE CRITERIA The RSB acceptance criteria are based on meeting the relevant requirements of the following regulations: A. General Design Criterion 10 (Ref. 2), as it relates to the reactor coolant system being designed with appropriate margin to assure that specified acceptable fuel design limits are not exceeded during normal operations including anticipated operational occurrences. B. General Design Criterion 15 (Ref. 3), as it relates to the reactor coolant system and its associated auxiliaries being designed with appropriate margin to assure that the pressure boundary will not be breeched during normal operations including anticipated operational occurrences. C. General Design Criterion 26 (Ref. 4), as it relates to the reliable control of reactivity changes to assure that specified acceptable fuel design limits are not exceeded, including anticipated operational occurrences. This is accomplished by assuring
