teristics and safety functions of SSCs based on their safety significance. 4. The reviewer should ensure that appropriate guidance is provided to other branches such that structural engineering issues in Tier 1 are treated in a consistent manner among branches. 5. Reviewers should ensure that the review of Tier 1 is coordinated with the ECGB review of site parameters in SRP Section 14.3.1 and piping design in SRP Section 14.3.3. 6. Reviewers should ensure that inputs from the secondary review branches (PERB and SPLB) as discussed in the "Areas of Review" section above are reflected in Tier 1 information.
