ic individual(s) will be designated and assigned responsibility and authority for implementing ALARA policy. Alternative proposed policies will be evaluated on the basis of a comparison with the above Regulatory Guides and NUREG-0761. 2. Design Considerations Acceptability will' be based on evidence that the design methods, approach, and interactions are in accordance with the ALARA provisions of 10 CFR Part 20, §20.1(c), and Regulatory Guide 8.8, and will include incorpora- tion of measures for reducing the need for time spent in radiation areas; maintenance; measures to improve the accessibility to components requiring periodic maintenance or inservice inspection; measures to reduce the pro- duction, distribution, and retention of activated corrosion products throughout the primary system; measures for assuring that ORE during 12.1- 3 Rev. 2 July 1981 decommissioning will be ALARA, reviews of the design by competent radia- - tion protection personnel; instructions to designers and engineers regarding ALARA design; experience from operating plants and past designs; and continuing facility design reviews. Alternative proposed design poli- cies will be evaluated on the basis of a comparison with the design guid- ance in Regulatory Guide 8.8 (c.2). 3. Operational Considerations Acceptability will be based on evidence that the applicant has a program to develop plans and procedures in accordance with Regulatory Guides 1.33, 8.8, and 8.10, which can incorporate the experiences obtained in facility operation into facility and equipment design and into operations plannning and which will implement specific exposure control techniques. 4. Radiation Protection Considerations Acceptability will be based on evidence that the Radiation Protection Plan has been prepared in accordance with the guidelines of Task Action Plan item II.D.3.1 and supplemented by NUREG-0761, including criteria, concepts, and implementation schemes to be included as part of opera- tional radiation
