rely reference that information in the ER, as the applicant will later update that information in the FSAR.” 6. Minimization of Contamination Compliance with 10 CFR 20.1406 requires the applicant to describe how facility design and procedures for operation will minimize, to the extent practicable, contamination of the facility and the environment, facilitate eventual decommissioning, and minimize, to the extent practicable, the generation of radioactive waste. The acceptability of these features will be based on the guidance contained in RG 4.21 and Appendix 12.3-12.4-A (CP PSAR and updates in the OL FSAR, DC FSAR, or the COL FSAR to the extent that they are not addressed in a referenced certified design). Technical Rationale The technical rationale for application of these acceptance criteria to the areas of review addressed by this SRP section is discussed in the following paragraphs: 1. The referenced sections of 10 CFR Part 20 specify that the licensee shall control the 12.3-12.4-23 Revision 5 – September 2013 radiation sources, and the radiation doses to workers and members of the public from exposures to these sources, during normal operations, AOOs, and decommissioning, so that they are within the regulatory dose limits and ALARA. 2. The referenced sections of 10 CFR Part 50 and 10 CFR Part 52, and the associated sections of RG 1.70 and RG 1.206, specify the scope of the material in an application and the associated technical review by the staff. 3. The references to the specific items in 10 CFR 50.34(f), their associated action item in NUREG-0737, and RG 1.97and BTP 7-10 specify that adequate in-plant radiation monitoring is provided for accidents and AOOs. Radiation protection design features are provided to allow personnel access to the plant under accident conditions sufficient to perform actions necessary to mitigate the consequences of the accident. 4. Compliance with GDC 61 requires that systems that may contain radioactivity be designed to ensure
