to the SRP acceptance criteria provide acceptable methods of compliance with the NRC regulations. 1. Description of the Containment. The descriptive information in the safety analysis report (SAR) is considered acceptable if it meets the criteria set forth in Section 3.8.1.1 of RG 1.206. If the concrete containment has new or unique features that are not specifically covered in RG 1.206, the reviewer determines whether the information necessary to accomplish a meaningful review of the structural aspects of these new or unique features is presented. RG 1.206 provides the basis for evaluating the description of Seismic Category I structures to be included in a DC or a COL application. RG 1.70 provides guidance for information to be submitted with an application for construction permit (CP) or operating license (OL). 2. Applicable Codes, Standards, and Specifications. The design, materials, fabrication, erection, inspection, testing, and inservice surveillance of concrete containments are covered by codes, standards, specifications, and guides that are applicable either in their entirety or in part. The following codes and guides are acceptable: Codes Title ASME Code Section III, Division 2, Subsection CC, “Code for Concrete Reactor Vessels and Containments” ASME Code Section XI, Subsection IWL, “Requirements for Class CC Concrete Components of Light-Water Cooled Plants” ASME Code Section XI, Subsection IWE, “Requirements for Class MC and Metallic Liners of Class CC Concrete Components of Light-Water Cooled Power Plants” RG Title 1.7 Control of Combustible Gas Concentrations in Containment Following a Loss-of-Coolant Accident 1.35 Inservice Inspection of Ungrouted Tendons in Prestressed Concrete Containments 1.35.1 Determining Prestressing Forces for Inspection of Prestressed Concrete Containments 1.90 Inservice Inspection of Prestressed Concrete Containment Structures with Grouted Tendons 3.8.1-10 Revision 2 - March 2007 1.91 Evaluations of Explosions
