FOR PUMPS, VALVES, AND DYNAMIC RESTRAINTS REVIEW RESPONSIBILITIES Primary - Organization responsible for the review of component performance and testing Secondary - None I. AREAS OF REVIEW This Standard Review Plan (SRP) section addresses the areas of the applicant’s final safety analysis report (FSAR) that cover the functional design and qualification provisions and inservice testing (IST)1 programs for safety-related2 pumps, valves, and dynamic restraints (snubbers) designated as Class 1, 2, or 3 under Section III of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code (BPV Code). The review 1The term “inservice testing” or IST used in developing programs for nuclear power plants to satisfy the ASME Code for Operation and Maintenance of Nuclear Power Plants (ASME OM Code) encompasses preservice and inservice testing for pumps and valves, and preservice and inservice examination and testing for dynamic restraints. The term “inservice inspection” or ISI used in developing programs for nuclear power plants to satisfy the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, Section XI, includes preservice and inservice examination and testing for dynamic restraints. To simplify the multiple acronyms in this SRP section, “IST program” for pumps, valves, and dynamic restraints is used to identify preservice and inservice testing programs for pumps and valves, and preservice and inservice examination and testing programs for dynamic restraints. 2 Safety-related is defined in Section 50.2, “Definitions,” of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations. 3.9.6-2 Revision 4 – March 2017 should also include any other pumps, valves, and dynamic restraints not categorized as ASME BPV Code Class 1, 2 or 3 that have a safety-related function.3 Conformance with the specific guidance in Subsection II of this SRP section will provide reasonable assurance that the functional design and qualification of pumps, valves, and dynamic restraints within
