nalyses associated with design basis accidents are reviewed under SRP Section 15.0.3. The specific acceptance criteria and review procedures are contained in the referenced SRP section. II. ACCEPTANCE CRITERIA Acceptance criteria are based on meeting the relevant requirements of the following Commission regulations: 1. 10 CFR Part 20, “Standards for Protection Against Radiation” 2. 10 CFR Part 50, “Domestic Licensing of Production and Utilization Facilities” (especially 10 CFR 50.46 and Appendix A) 3. 10 CFR Part 100, “Reactor Site Criteria” 4. 10 CFR Part 52, “Early Site Permits; Standard Design Certification; and Combined Licenses for Nuclear Power Plants” The following GDC from Appendix A to 10 CFR Part 50 are relevant to SRP Section 15: 1. GDC 2, as it relates to the seismic design of structures, systems, and components (SSCs) whose failure could cause an unacceptable reduction in the capability of the residual heat removal system. 2. GDC 4, as it relates to the requirement that SSCs important to safety be designed to accommodate the effects of and be compatible with the environmental conditions associated with normal operation, maintenance, testing, and postulated accident conditions, including such effects as pipe whip and jet impingement. 3. GDC 5, as it relates to the requirement that any sharing among nuclear power units of SSCs important to safety will not significantly impair their safety function. 4. GDC 10, as it relates to the RCS being designed with appropriate margin to ensure that specified acceptable fuel design limits are not exceeded during normal operations including AOOs. 5. GDC 13, as it relates to instrumentation and controls provided to monitor variables over anticipated ranges for normal operations, for AOOs, and for accident conditions. 6. GDC 15, as it relates to the RCS and its associated auxiliaries being designed with appropriate margin to ensure that the pressure boundary will not be breached during normal operations,
