requirements. Meeting these requirements provides assurance that the LLHS will be operate under adequately safe conditions structurally, procedurally, and under geometrically safe conditions to avoid criticality accidents and subsequent releases of radioactive materials resulting from damaged to fuel or to irradiated fuel, thereby ensuring acceptable levels of personnel radiation exposure.23 III. REVIEW PROCEDURES 9.1.4-7 DRAFT Rev. 3 - April 1996 The light load handling system provides for handling of fuel assemblies, and other associated light loads such as control rods, and burnable poison rods and flow limiting orifices. The general objective of the review is to confirm that the LLHS design precludes system malfunctions or failures that could result in criticality accidents, a release of radioactivity or excessive personnel radiation exposures. There are variations in the designs of proposed handling systems; hence, there will be variations in system requirements and the type and number of loads to be handled. For the purpose of this review, the LLHS will not include the equipment used to handle heavy loads, i.e., loads whose weight exceed that of one fuel assembly and its associated handling tool. The procedures listed here are used in the construction permit (CP) or early site permit (ESP) review to determine that the LLHS design criteria and bases and the preliminary LLHS design described in the SAR meet the acceptance criteria given in subsection II of this SRP section. For operating license (OL) or combined license (COL) reviews the procedures are used to verify 24 that the design criteria and bases have been appropriately implemented in the LLHS final design. Upon request from the primary reviewer, the coordinating review branches will provide input for the areas of review stated in subsection I of this SRP section. The primary reviewer obtains and uses such input as required to assureensure that this review procedure is complete. 1. The system
