Content:
ecific areas of review are as follows: 1. Contained Sources. The description of radiation sources, during normal operations and accident conditions in the plant, is used as the basis for designing the radiation protection program and for shield design calculations. (Safety Analysis Report (SAR) Chapter 11 describes the sources contained in equipment of the radioactive waste management systems.) This description should include isotopic composition, location in the plant, source strength and source geometry, and the basis for the values (in the CP PSAR and updated in the OL FSAR, DC FSAR, or COL FSAR or, for sources not described in a referenced certified design, the COL FSAR). The descriptions should include any required radiation sources containing byproduct, source, and special nuclear materials. 2. Airborne Radioactive Material Sources. The staff will review the description of airborne radioactive material sources in the plant considered in the design of the ventilation systems and used for the design of personnel protective measures and for dose assessment. (SAR Chapter 11 contains the description for airborne sources to be considered for their contribution to the plant effluent releases, through equipment of the radioactive waste management systems or the plant ventilation system.) This description should include a tabulation of the calculated concentrations of radioactive material, by nuclide, expected during normal operation, AOOs, and accident conditions for equipment cubicles, corridors, and operating areas normally occupied by operating personnel. It should also include models and parameters for the calculations (PSAR and updated in the OL FSAR, DC FSAR, or COL FSAR or, for sources not described in a referenced certified design, the COL FSAR). 3. Inspections, Tests, Analyses, and Acceptance Criteria (ITAAC). For DC and COL reviews, the staff reviews the applicant's proposed ITAAC associated with the structures, systems, and components (SSCs) related to this
