Content:
detailed review schedule will commonly include public meetings with the applicant to ask clarifying questions and allow the applicant to present new data or other information to justify conclusions in the application. Staff reviews the applicant's responses to questions and remaining issues may be resolved by supplemental RAIs, public meetings or by staff positions. A staff position is usually in the form of a requirement for the applicant to provide confirmatory information or to design for a specific condition in a manner deemed to be adequate and consistent with requirements of 10 CFR 100.23. Site Audit and Confirmatory Activities Staff will conduct a site audit to examine geologic features revealed by outcrops, trenches, test pits, surface and subsurface geophysical tests, and borehole data. For Section 2.5.3, staff will focus on geologic features within the site vicinity, area and location that may indicate surface deformation. Staff prepares a site audit report to document what staff did at the site and to aid in the development of the staff’s Safety Evaluation Report (SER). The report is subsequently submitted to Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) and retained as a record. As part of confirmatory activities for the site audit review, staff might conduct an independent geologic reconnaissance of the site vicinity and area as necessary to examine soil and rock samples from core borings and test pits and geologic features in trenches and excavations for other site facilities.
