ates to sufficient design information being provided to demonstrate that design objectives for equipment necessary to control releases of radioactive effluents to the environment have been met. 11.4-2 Rev. 2 - July 1981 C. General Design Criterion 60 as it relates to the radioactive waste management systems being designed to control releases of radioactive materials to the environment. D. General Design Criterion 63 and 64 as it relates to the radioactive waste system being designed for monitoring radiation levels and leakage. E. 10 CFR Part 71 as it relates to radioactive material packaging. The relevant requirements of the Commission regulations identified above are met by using the regulatory positions contained in Regulatory Guide 1.143 as it relates to the seismic design and quality group classification of com- ponents used in the gaseous waste treatment system and structures housing the systems and the provisions used to control leakages. Specific criteria necessary to meet the relevant requirements of the Commission's regulations are as follows: 1. The system design parameters are based on radionuclide concentrations and volumes consistent with reactor operating experience for similar designs. 2. All liquid wet wastes will be solidified in accordance with a process control program prior to shipment offsite or there will be provisions to verify the absence of free liquid in each container and to reprocess containers in which free liquid is detected in accordance with Branch Technical Position (BTP) ETSB 11-3 (Ref. 1). 3. Other wet wastes will be solidified or dewatered (subject to receiving burial site acceptance) in accordance with a process control program or there will be provisions to verify the absence of free liquid in each container and to reprocess containers in which excess water is detected, in accordance with Branch Technical Position (BTP) ETSB 11-3 (Ref. 1). 4. Solid waste containers, shipping casks, and methods of packaging meet applicable
