1 REVIEW RESPONSIBILITIES Primary - Civil Engineering and Geosciences Branch (ECGB) Secondary - Plant Systems Branch (SPLB), Emergency Preparedness and Radiation Protection Branch (PERB), Safeguards Branch (PSGB) I. AREAS OF REVIEW ECGB reviews Tier 1 of the Design Control Document (DCD), and DCD Tier 2 Sections 3.7, 3.8 and 14.3 submitted by the applicant. Review responsibilities may be consistent with those contained in Appendix A to SRP Section 14.3. ECGB has primary review responsibility for building structures and structural aspects of major components such as the reactor pressure vessel (RPV). The review includes definitions, key dimensions, general provisions, and legends for figures in Tier 1. ECGB reviews Tier 1 information for issues regarding structural, mechani- cal, materials, and chemical engineering. Review Interfaces SRP Section 14.3 provides general guidance on review interfaces. ECGB performs related reviews and coordination activities, as requested by other branches, for issues in Tier 1 as discussed above. ECGB also performs the following reviews under the SRP sections indicated: 1. ECGB determines that Tier 1 information is adequate for site parameters for the design in SRP Section 14.3.1. DRAFT Rev. 0 - April 1996 14.3.2-2 2. ECGB determines that Tier 1 information is adequate for piping design, including piping DAC if applicable, in SRP Section 14.3.3. In addition, ECGB will coordinate other branches' evaluations that interface with the overall review of the systems as follows: 1. The Electrical Engineering Branch (EELB) determines the acceptability of Tier 1 information regarding the separation requirements and locations of major electrical components and systems in SRP Section 14.3.6. 2. The Reactor Systems Branch (SRXB) determines the acceptability of Tier 1 information regarding the arrangement of reactor and core cooling systems, including design considerations for preventing intersystem loss-of-coolant accidents in SRP Section 14.3.4. 3.
