l Specifications Branch (TSB) will 17 review the proposed technical specifications for each system at the operating license stage of review as part of the primary review responsibility for SRP Section 16.0. For those areas of review identified above being reviewed as part of the primary review 18 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.19 II. ACCEPTANCE CRITERIA CSBSCSB acceptance criteria for the design of the containment heat removal system is based 20 on meeting the relevant requirements of General Design Criterion Criteria 38, 39, and 40. The 21 relevant requirements are as indicated below. 1A. General Design Criterion 38 (GDC 38) as it relates to: 22 23 a. Containment heat removal system being capable of reducing rapidly the containment pressure and temperature following a LOCA, and maintaining them at acceptably low levels. b. The containment heat removal system performance being consistent with the function of other systems. c. The containment heat removal system being safety-grade design; i.e., have suitable redundancy of components and features, and interconnections, to assure that for either a loss of onsite as a loss of offsite power, the system function can be accomplished assuming a single failure., suitable redundancy in components and features, and suitable interconnections, leak detection, isolation, and containment capabilities shall be provided to ensure that for onsite electric power system operation (assuming offsite power is not available) and for offsite electric power system operation (assuming onsite power is not available) the system safety function can be accomplished, assuming a single failure. d. Leak detection, isolation and containment capabilities being incorporated in the design of the containment heat removal system.24 2B. General Design Criterion 39 (GDC 39), as it relates to the
