t-benefit analysis are stated in Section II.D of Appendix I to 10 CFR Part 50 (Ref. 5). 7. The source terms meet the "as low as is reasonably achievable" objective for effluent releases as required by paragraph c of Section 20.1 of 10 CFR Part 20 (Ref. 6). 8.. The source terms result in meeting the design objectives for doses in an unrestricted area as set forth in Appendix I to 10 CFR Part 50. 9. For evaluating the source terms, the applicant should provide the relevant information in the SAR as required by 10 CFR Part 50, Section 50.34 (Ref. 7) and 10 CFR Part 50, Section 50.34a (Ref. 8). This technical information should include all the basic data listed in Appendix A (BWRs) and Appendix B (PWRs) to Regulatory Guide 1.112 (Ref. 9) required in calculating the releases of radioactive material in liquid and gaseous effluents (the source terms). An acceptable method for satisfying the criteria given in items 1 through 6 consists of using the gaseous and liquid effluent (GALE) Computer Code and the source term parameters given in NUREG-0016 or NUREG-0017 for BWRs and PWRs respectively. Complete listings of the GALE Computer Codes for BWRs and PWRs are given in NUREG-0016 and NUREG-0017 respectively. 11.1-3 Rev. 2 - July 1981 10. If the applicant's calculational technique or any source term parameter differs from that given in NUREG-0016 and NUREG-0017, they should be described in detail and the bases for the methods and parameters used should be provided. III. REVIEW PROCEDURES The reviewer will select and emphasize material from this SRP section as may be appropriate for a particular case. 1. In the review of the mathematical models and parameters given in the SAR to calculate primary coolant concentrations, and of the leakage rates to the radioactive waste management systems, ETSB compares parameters and calculations given in the SAR with the models and parameters given in NUREG-0016 and NUREG-0017. If the SAR includes models or parameters to estimate reactor
