Safety Evaluation Report (SER). For additional information, the staff should consider the information provided in Section 17.4 of previous SERs for advanced reactors. Through the review of information provided by the applicant and of applicable NRC audit/inspection reports, a conclusion is made regarding the acceptability of the applicant's RAP. 17.4-15 Draft Revision 1 – May 2013 The following regulatory guides provide information on categorizing risk significance of SSCs and can facilitate the review of the methodology for identifying SSCs within the scope of the RAP under acceptance criteria A.3 in Subsection II of this SRP section: • RG 1.174, "An Approach for using Probabilistic Risk Assessment in Risk-Informed Decisions on Plant-Specific Changes to the Licensing Basis," and • RG 1.201, "Guidelines for Categorizing Structures, Systems, and Components in Nuclear Power Plants According to Their Safety Significance." The PRA staff should request assistance from other technical organizations, as necessary, to participate in the review of the list of RAP SSCs and the evaluation methodology (e.g., review of RAP SSCs identified from deterministic methods). To facilitate the review of the process for integrating the RAP into operational programs, the PRA staff should interface, as necessary, with the organizations responsible for reviewing these operational programs. For review of both DC and COL applications, SRP Section 14.3 should be followed for the review of the proposed D-RAP ITAAC. SRP Section 14.3 references SRP Section 17.4 for specific review guidance on D-RAP ITAAC. Therefore, the proposed D-RAP ITAAC should be consistent with the discussion of D-RAP ITAAC in Subsection II of SRP Section 17.4. The review of the proposed D-RAP ITAAC cannot be completed until after completing the review of RAP in accordance with this document. It should be noted that SRP Section 14.3 provides general guidance for reviewing both system and non-system based ITAAC. As such,
