of its primary review responsibility for SRP Chapter 17.38 21. For new plant applicants, the Reactor Water Cleanup System may be included in the systematic assessment of shutdown risks as an alternate feature that can maintain core cooling in the event of a loss of normal decay heat removal during shutdown conditions. The Probabilistic Safety Assessment Branch (SPSB) coordinates and performs the shutdown risk assessment reviews as part of its primary review responsibility for SRP Section 19.1 (Proposed).39 For those areas of review identified above as being reviewed as part of the primary review responsibility of other branches, the acceptance criteria necessary for the review and their methods of application are contained in the referenced SRP section of the corresponding primary branch.40 5.4.8-5 DRAFT Rev. 3 - April 1996 II. ACCEPTANCE CRITERIA The CMEBEMCB acceptance criteria are based on meeting the relevant requirements of the 41 following regulations: A. General Design Criterion 1 (GDC 1) as it relates to the design of the RWCS and 42 components to standards commensurate with the importance of its safety function. B. General Design Criterion 2 (GDC 2) as it relates to the RWCS being able to withstand 43 the effects of natural phenomena. C. General Design Criterion 14 (GDC 14) as it relates to assuring ensuring the reactor 44 coolant pressure boundary integrity. D. General Design Criterion 60 (GDC 60) as it relates to the capability of the RWCS to 45 control the release of radioactive effluents to the environment. E. General Design Criterion 61 (GDC 61) as it relates to designing the RWCS with 46 appropriate confinement. Specific criteria and the positions of Regulatory Guides 1.26, 1.29, and 1.56 are used to meet the relevant requirements of GDC General Design Criteria 1, 2, 14, 60, and 61 as follows: 47 1. The system should be capable of maintaining acceptable reactor water purity in normal operation and during anticipated operational occurrences, e.g.,
