of the system concept, system requirements, system design, and plans for system development. 7.0-7 Revision 6 - May 2010 System Concept Evaluation The system concept evaluation should be based on the following review points: 1. The overall I&C system design's relationship to both the functions required by 10 CFR Part 50, "Domestic Licensing of Production and Utilization Facilities," and the functions required to support the assumptions of the plant accident analysis (see SRP Section 7.1). 2. The adequacy of any research and development plan necessary to resolve any outstanding questions concerning the design of systems or components. 3. Compliance with the technically relevant portions of 10 CFR Part 50 (see SRP Section 7.1). 4. Proposed resolution of technically relevant, unresolved safety issues and medium- and high-priority generic safety issues identified more than 6 months prior to the application (see RG 1.206, Section C.IV.8). System Requirements Evaluation The system requirements evaluation should be based on the following review points: 1. Principal design criteria with respect to the guidance of 10 CFR 50.55a(h), "Protection and Safety Systems," which requires compliance with IEEE Std. 603-1991 or IEEE Std. 279-1971, and 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix A (see SRP Section 7.1). 2. The design bases, including functional design requirements, and the relationship of the design bases to the principal design criteria (see SRP Section 7.2 through 7.9). The following additional review points apply to applications under 10 CFR Part 52 only: 3. ITAAC proposed to provide reasonable assurance that, if the inspections, tests, and analyses are performed and the acceptance criteria are met, a plant that incorporates the DC is built and will operate in accordance with the DC. SRP Section 14.3 describes the general acceptance criteria and review procedures for ITAAC. SRP Section 14.3.5 describes the specific acceptance criteria and review procedures for I&C system ITAAC. 4. The
