AREAS OF REVIEW This standard review plan (SRP) section provides guidance to staff responsible for reviewing inspections, tests, analyses, and acceptance criteria (ITAAC) for design certification (DC) and combined license (COL) applications under 10 CFR Part 52. The overall review approach ensures that the complete facility is verified and that the ITAAC are necessary and sufficient to verify conformance with the applicable regulations (10 CFR 52.97(b)). Previous DC applicants’ used the convention design control document (DCD) Tier 2 information for their FSAR and Tier 1 for inclusion within the DC rule. ITAAC was included within Tier 1 information. This SRP section continues with this convention as the anticipated COL applications should be referencing these certified designs. Related information on the previously certified designs reviews is in Appendix A to this SRP and in Appendices A through D to 10 CFR Part 52. For a COL application that does not reference a DC, there would be no Tier 1 or Tier 2 information. The type of information and the level of detail in Tier 1 are based on a graded approach commensurate with the safety significance of the structures, systems, and components (SSCs) for the design. The top-level information selected should include the principal performance characteristics and safety functions of the SSCs and should be verified appropriately by ITAAC. Design-specific and unique features of the facility should be considered carefully for inclusion in Tier 1. The SRP Section 14.3 subsections provide specific review area guidance. The general areas of review are as follow: 1. Staff
