Revision 6 – October 2019 COL application referencing an ESP or a DC. For a COL application referencing either an ESP or DC or both, the staff should review the corresponding sections of the ESP and DC FSER to ensure that any ESP conditions, restrictions to the DC, or COL action items identified in the FSERs are appropriately handled in the COL application. Per 10 CFR 52.47(a)(1), a DC will provide site parameters postulated for the design. For a COL application referencing a DC, the reviewer verifies that the applicant provided a basis for each of the site parameters as stated in the DC site parameters summary table. EVALUATION FINDINGS The review should document the staff’s evaluation of geologic and seismic site characteristics with respect to the relevant regulatory criteria. The evaluation should support the staff’s conclusions as to whether the regulations are met. The reviewer should state what was done to evaluate the applicant’s safety analysis report. The staff’s evaluation might include verification that the applicant followed applicable regulatory guidance, performance of independent calculations, and/or confirmation of appropriate assumptions. The reviewer might state that certain information provided by the applicant was not considered significant to staff’s understanding of safety and, consequently, was not reviewed in detail. Although the reviewer might summarize or quote the information offered by the applicant in support of its application, the reviewer should clearly articulate the bases for the staff’s conclusions. If staff completes review of geologic and seismic aspects of the site related to potential for surface deformation and confirms that the applicant met all applicable requirements (i.e., appropriate portions of GDC 2 in Appendix A to 10 CFR Part 50, 10 CFR 52.79(a)(iii), 10 CFR 100.23(c), and 10 CFR 100.23(d)(2)) the conclusion in the SER should state that investigations and analyses performed and information provided
