en designed to preclude damage from dropped heavy objects. f. Sharing of a storage facility in multi-unit plants does not result in any added potential for increasing the Keff of the storage array. 3. The reviewer verifies that the safety function of the facility will be maintained, as required, if the facility is subjected to natural phenomena such as earthquakes, tornadoes, hurricanes, and floods. In making this determination, the reviewer considers the following points: a. The facility design basis and criteria, and the component classifica- tion tables presented in the SAR are reviewed to verify that the new fuel storage facility; including storage vault and racks, have been classified and will be designed to seismic Category I requirements. b. The essential portions of the new fuel racks and storage vault are reviewed to verify that protection from the effects of floods, hurri- canes, tornadoes, and internally or externally generated missiles is provided-_ Flood protection and missile protection criteria are 9.1.1-4 Rev- 2 - July 1981 discussed in sections of the SRP contained in Chapter 3. The reviewer utilizes the procedures of those SRP sections, as appro- priate, to assure that the analyses presented are valid. A state- ment to the effect that the storage will be located in a seismic Category I structure that is designed to withstand the effects of internally and externally generated missiles and floods is an accept- able commitment at the CP stage. The review for seismic design is performed by SEB and the review for seismic and quality group classi- fication is performed by MEB as indicated in subsection I of this SRP section. IV. EVALUATION FINDINGS The reviewer verifies that the information provided and his review support con- clusions of the following type to be included in the staff's safety evaluation report: The new fuel storage facility includes the fuel assembly storage racks, the concrete storage vault that contains the storage racks, and
