52.17(a)(1)(xii), as applicable) as long as the DCD/FSAR does not deviate significantly from the design/facility/site assumptions made by the NRC staff while preparing this SRP section. The plants for which construction permit applications were tendered before July 1, 1973, may use design criteria for protection against postulated pipe ruptures outside containment as described in the A. Giambosso letter of December 1972 (Appendix B to BTP 3-3). The J.F. O’Leary letter of July 12, 1973 (BTP 3-3, Appendix C) emphasizes design criteria for protection against postulated pipe ruptures outside containment via plant arrangement and layouts utilizing the concept of physical separation to the extent practical for those plants for which construction permit applications were tendered after July 1, 1973, and before July 1, 1975. For a DC application, the application must identify and describe all differences between the standard plant design and this SRP section, and discuss how the proposed alternative provides an acceptable method of complying with the regulations that underlie the SRP acceptance criteria. If the design assumptions in the DC application deviate significantly from the SRP, the staff will use the SRP as specified in 10 CFR 52.47(a)(9). Alternatively, the staff may supplement the SRP section by adding appropriate criteria to address new design assumptions. The same approach may be used to meet the requirements of 10 CFR 52.79(a)(41) for COL applications or 10 CFR 52.17(a)(1)(xii) for ESP applications. VI. REFERENCES 1.
