re could reduce the functioning of any seismic Category I feature to an unacceptable safety level, or could result in incapacitating injury to control room personnel, to assure that such items will be analyzed and designed to maintain their integrity under seismic loading from the SSE. a. The information in the SAR is also reviewed to identify radioactive waste management system and fire protection SSCs to assure that those SSCs calling for seismic design considerations have been identified consistent with those systems specified in RG 1.143 and RG 1.189. 6. In the event an applicant intends to take exception to RGs 1.29, 1.143, 1.151, or 1.189 but has not provided an adequate justification for resultant proposed seismic classifications, the staff prepares questions whose answers may require additional documentation or analysis to establish an acceptable basis for the proposed seismic classification. The staff may also prepare comments requesting clarification in order to assure a clear understanding of the seismic classification assigned to a system by the applicant. a. If the staff’s questions are not resolved in a satisfactory manner, a staff position is taken requesting conformance to RGs 1.29, 1.143, 1.151, 1.189 and with the positions discussed in the above Review Procedures. 7. For review of a DC application, the reviewer should follow the above procedures to verify that the design, including requirements and restrictions (e.g., interface requirements and site parameters), set forth in the FSAR meets the acceptance criteria. DCs have referred to the FSAR as the design control document (DCD). The reviewer should also consider the appropriateness of identified COL action items. The reviewer may identify additional COL action items; however, to ensure these COL action items are addressed during a COL application, they should be added to the DC FSAR. a. For review of a COL application, the scope of the review is dependent on whether the COL applicant references
