Content:
10 CFR 50.36(c)(2)(ii), and present the results of this review in its COL application. An applicant for a COL under 10 CFR Part 52 should propose TS in Section 16 of the FSAR (plant–specific design certification document (DCD)). The proposed TS should be based on the 16.0-3 Revision 3 – March 2010 current STS and any approved STS changes not yet incorporated, or the DCD GTS if referencing a certified plant design. To support issuance of an OL under 10 CFR 50.57 or a COL under 10 CFR 52.97, the staff must approve the final version of TS, which were originally proposed in the PSAR, FSAR, or generic DCD and subsequently completed as part of the OL or COL application. The approved TS reflect the final refinements in design, test results, and expected method of operation, and are issued with the OL or COL in Appendix A to the license. Compliance with the Appendix A TS is a condition of the license. The specific areas of review are the following: 1. The proposed TS are reviewed for whether content and format are consistent with the applicable reference TS (the current STS, the certified generic TS, or both). Special attention is given to TS provisions that depart from the reference TS to determine whether proposed differences are justified by uniqueness in plant design or other considerations so that 10 CFR 50.36 is met. The licensing project manager (PM) and the assigned reviewers compare the proposed TS to the reference TS for whether the application states adequate technical justification for each departure from the reference TS. In addition, reviewers verify whether the final numerical values, graphs, and other data are correct; i.e., in conformance with the FSAR. At the PSAR and DC application stage, numerical values, graphs, and other data are not as complete as necessary for plant operation because of the preliminary nature of the plant design or because determination of specific numerical values is pending future decisions by the OL or COL applicant on
