g reviewed as part of the primary review responsibility of other branches, the acceptance criteria necessary for the review and their methods of application are contained in the referenced SRP section of the corresponding primary branch.38 II. ACCEPTANCE CRITERIA Acceptability of the spent fuel storage facility design as described in the applicant's safety analysis report (SAR) is based on certain General Design Criteria and Regulatory Guides, and on independent calculations and staff judgments with respect to system functions and component selection. The design of the spent fuel storage facility is acceptable if the integrated design is in accordance with the following criteria: 1. General Design Criterion 2 (GDC 2), as it relates to structures housing the facility and 39 the facility itself being capable of withstanding the effects of natural phenomena such as earthquakes, tornadoes, and hurricanes. Acceptance for meeting this criterion is based on conformance to position C.3C.2 of Regulatory Guide 1.13, the applicable portions of 40 Regulatory Guide 1.29, Regulatory Guide 1.117, and ANS 57.2 paragraphs 5.1.1, 5.1.3, 5.1.12, 5.3.2, and 5.3.4. 2. General Design Criterion 4 (GDC 4), as it relates to structures housing the facility and 41 the facility itself being capable of withstanding the effects of environmental conditions and external missiles, and internally generated missiles, pipe whip, and jet impingement forces associated with pipe breaks, such that safety functions will not be precluded. Acceptance for meeting this criterion is based on meeting position C.3C.2 of Regulatory 42 Guide 1.13, Regulatory Guides 1.115 and 1.117, as well as appropriate paragraphs of ANS 57.2. 9.1.2-5 DRAFT Rev. 4 - April 1996 3. General Design Criterion 5 (GDC 5), as it relates to shared structures, systems, and 43 components important to safety being capable of performing required safety functions. 4.
