in SRP Section 2.4.10. 2. The review to ensure that adverse environmental conditions, including those from loss of water due to dam failure, will not preclude the safety function of the ultimate heat sink is performed under SRP Section 9.2.5, “Ultimate Heat Sink.” 3. The organization responsible for issues related to geoscience and geotechnical engineering reviews data necessary to justify seismic Category I classification of relevant dams and water control structures to verify that these structures will survive a local equivalent of the safe shutdown earthquake. 1 Additional supporting information of prior DC rules may be found in DCD Tier 2 Section 14.3. 2.4.4-3 Revision 3 - March 2007 4. For DC applications and COL applications referencing a DC rule or DC application, review of the site parameters in the Design Control Document (DCD) Tier 1 and Chapter 2 of the DCD Tier 21 submitted by the applicant is performed under SRP Section 2.0, “Site Characteristics and Site Parameters.” Review of site characteristics and site- related design parameters in ESP applications or in COL applications referencing an ESP is also performed under Section 2.0. The specific acceptance criteria and review procedures are contained in the referenced SRP sections. II. ACCEPTANCE CRITERIA Requirements Acceptance criteria are based on meeting the relevant requirements of the following Commission regulations: 1. 10 CFR Part 100, as it relates to identifying and evaluating hydrological features of the site. The requirements to consider physical site characteristics in site evaluations are specified in 10 CFR 100.10(c) for applications before January 10, 1997, and in 10 CFR 100.20(c) for applications on or after January 10, 1997. 2. 10 CFR 100.23(d) sets forth the criteria to determine the siting factors for plant design bases with respect to seismically induced floods and water waves at the site. 3. 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix A, General Design Criterion (GDC) 2, for CP and OL
