ication, and inservice testing programs for pumps, valves, and dynamic restraints. 8. SRP Section 3.11 defines the environmental qualification of safety-related mechanical and electrical equipment. 9. SRP Section 3.13 defines the adequacy of programs for assuring the integrity of bolting and threaded fasteners, including provisions for installation and maintenance of mounting and bolting details equivalent to those used for equipment qualification. The specific acceptance criteria and review procedures are contained in the referenced SRP sections. II. ACCEPTANCE CRITERIA Requirements Acceptance criteria are based on meeting the relevant requirements of the following Commission regulations: 1. GDC 1 and 30 as they relate to qualifying equipment to appropriate quality standards commensurate with the importance of the safety functions to be performed. 2. GDC 2 and Appendix S to 10 CFR Part 50 as they relate to designing equipment to withstand the effects of natural phenomena such as earthquakes. 3.10-4 Revision 3 - March 2007 3. GDC 4 as it relates to qualifying equipment as capable of withstanding the dynamic effects associated with external missiles and internally generated missiles, pipe whip, and jet impingement forces. 4. GDC 14 as it relates to qualifying equipment associated with the reactor coolant boundary so that there is an extremely low probability of abnormal leakage, of rapidly propagating failure, and of gross rupture. 5. 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, as it relates to qualifying equipment using the quality assurance criteria provided. 6. 10 CFR part 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, as it relates to verifying and checking the adequacy of design, such as by the performance of a suitable test program, among other things, and which specifically requires that a test program used to verify the adequacy of a specific design feature shall include suitable qualifications testing of a prototype unit under the most adverse design conditions. 7. 10 CFR 52.47(b)(1),
