ogram requirements, the applicability of these exceptions to a particular plant must be considered and justified on a plant-specific basis as discussed above in Section III.C.2.a. g. Risk Implications For cases in which the licensee proposes a risk-informed basis for not performing certain transient tests, SPSB should be consulted to assist in the review. Risk-informed justifications for not performing power ascension tests should be carefully weighed against the potential benefits of performing the tests. In addition to the risks inherent in initiating a plant transient, the review should also consider the benefit of identifying potential latent equipment deficiencies or other plant problems under the controlled circumstances afforded by the test program. In any case, a risk-informed justification should not be used as the sole basis for not performing the power ascension tests that are referred to above in Sections III.A and III.B.
