lation staff responsible for the review of applications to construct and operate nuclear power plants. These documents are made available to the public as part of the Commission's policy to Inform the nuclear Industry and the general public of regulatory procedures and policies. Standard review plans are not substitutes for regulatory guides or the Commission's regulations and compliance with them is not required. The standard review plan sections are keyed to the Standard Format and Content of Safety Analysis Reports for Nuclear Power Plants. Not all sections of the Standard Format have a corresponding review plan. Published standard review plans will be revised periodically, as appropriate. to accommodate commrents and to reflect new Informa- tion and experience. Comments and suggestions for Improvement will be considered and should be sent to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission. Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation. Washington, D.C. 20M. c. Arrangements where neither separation nor protective enclosures are practical and special protective measures are taken to ensure the operability of safety-related features. 2. SPLB, coordinates with other review branches as detailed be'-:! and reviews design features recommended in Section B.2 of BTP SPLB 3-1 as follows: a. The Mechanical Engineering Branch (EMEB) confirms the seismic and quality group classifications of systems and components defined as essential safety-related features in Appendix A of BTP SPLB 3-1, as part of its primary review responsibility for SRP Sections 3.2.1 and 3.2.2. b. SPLB identifies protective structures, piping restraints, and other measures used for protection against pipe breaks outside containment. Review of the specific aspects of these elements recommended in item B.2.b of BTP SPLB 3-1 is done by the Structural and Geosciences Branch (ESGB) and EMEB as follows: (1) ESGB reviews the design of protective structures in connection with the review of other Category I structures under SRP
