tion, the design features are consistent with the radiation exposure and radiation source control requirements in 10 CFR 20.1406, 10 CFR 20.1601, 10 CFR 20.1602, 10 CFR 20.1801, 10 CFR 20.1901, 10 CFR 20.1902, and 10 CFR 20.1905. Many of these design features have been incorporated as a result of the applicant’s radiation protection design review and from radiation exposure experience gained during the operation of other nuclear power plants. [Include examples of design features incorporated to reduce radiation to workers during maintenance operations, reduce radiation sources where operations must be performed, allow quick entry and easy access, provide remote operation capability or reduce the time required for work in radiation fields, and examples of other features that reduce radiation exposure of personnel. These design features are consistent with those contained in RGs 8.8 and 8.38 and are acceptable. Plant design and layout facilitates the control of access to and work within plant areas in accordance with the requirements of 10 CFR 20.1601, 10 CFR 20.1602, 10 CFR 20.1901, 10 CFR 20.1902, and 10 CFR 20.1903 and access control alternatives in the Standard Technical Specifications (NUREG-1430, NUREG-1431, NUREG-1432, NUREG-1433, and NUREG-1434) and are acceptable. Areas within the restricted area are divided into [number of zones] radiation zones. The dose rate criterion for each of these zones is derived from expected occupancy and access restrictions. These criteria are then used as the basis for the radiation shielding design. This allows for arrangements of radioactive equipment that are in accordance with the requirements of 10 CFR Part 20 and the guidelines of RG 8.8. The plant design and layout facilitates the control of access to and work within plant areas in accordance with the requirements of 10 CFR 20.1601, 10 CFR 20.1602, 10 CFR 20.1901, 10 CFR 20.1902, and 10 CFR 20.1903 and access control alternatives in the Standard Technical Specifications
