gical monitoring programs for normal operation and anticipated operational occurrences, while ANSI N42.18-2004 and ANSI/HPS N13.1-1999 provide guidance on the selection and use of continuous radiation monitoring equipment and methods in sampling airborne radioactive materials in nuclear facilities. The regulatory guides cited above also provide guidance on the requirements of quality assurance programs. In addition to Regulatory Guide 4.15, the review addresses the process used to develop, review, verify, validate, and audit digital computer software used in radiation monitoring and sampling equipment, including software used to terminate or divert process and effluent streams. This aspect addresses software developed by the applicant, purchased through a vendor, or included with the instrumentation. Meeting the requirements of GDC 63 and 64 provides reasonable assurance that the levels of radioactivity in effluents from nuclear power plants will not exceed specified limits and design objectives. The review conducted in this SRP section, with supporting information drawn from SRP Sections 11.2, 11.3, and 11.4, evaluates the method used to demonstrate compliance with these requirements. 7. The requirements specified in 10 CFR 50.34(f)(2)(xvii) and 10 CFR 50.34(f)(2)(xxvii) include provisions for monitoring gaseous effluents from all potential accident release points. 11.5-12 Revision 4 - March 2007 In examining the applicant’s system for sampling process streams and effluents under accident conditions, the reviewer considers Regulatory Guides 1.97 and 1.101; NUREG-0737, items II.B.2 and II.B.3 (Clarification Items 1, 3, 6, and 11), item II.F.1, Attachment 1, and the August 16, 1982, letter from D.G. Eisenhut; SRP Section 9.3.2; and the applicant’s emergency plan and implementation procedures. SRP BTP 7-10 (see SRP Section 7.5) provides additional guidance on the application of Regulatory Guide 1.97. Provisions for the following should be included: A. Purging
