quired by 10 CFR 52.17 and 10 CFR 100.23 have been combined with the staff's independent review of the data and other information sources. These results provide an adequate basis to establish that the most severe seismic factors for the site have been adequately characterized and have accounted for uncertainties. (2) Based on the results of the applicant's regional and site seismological investigations and the staff's independent evaluation, the staff concludes that all seismic sources significant to determining the site-specific GMRS have been identified and appropriately characterized by the applicant in accordance with RG 1.208 and SRP Section 2.5.2. 2. Design Certification Reviews The following statement should be preceded by a summary of geologic and seismic parameters used for the plant: The applicant has selected the site parameters referenced above for plant design inputs (a subset of which is included as Tier 1 information), and the staff agrees that they are representative of a reasonable number of sites that have been or may be considered for a COL application. Local and regional geologic and seismic parameters are specific to the site and region and will be addressed by the COL applicant. This should include the provision of information sufficient to demonstrate that the design of the plant falls within the values of the actual site characteristics specified in a COL or CP application. 3. Construction Permit, Operating License, and Combined License Reviews If the staff completes review of geologic and seismic aspects of the plant site and confirms that the applicant has met all applicable requirements (i.e., appropriate portions of GDC 2 in 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix A to 10 CFR Part 50; and 10 CFR 100.23) and guidelines (i.e., RGs 1.208, 1.132, 1.138, 1.198, 4.7,and 1.206), the conclusion in the SER should state that 2.5.2-19 Draft Revision 5 – 2013 investigations and analyses performed and information provided support the applicant's conclusions
