at short-term and long-term coolability to cool the core has been achieved by confirming that the primary reactor 28 coolant system is maintained in a safe status for a break equivalent in area to the double-ended rupture of the largest steam line. RSBSRXB acceptance criteria are based on meeting the relevant requirements of the following regulations: A. General Design Criterion 17 (GDC 17), as it relates to the requirement that an onsite and offsite electric power system be provided to permit the functioning of structures, systems, and components important to safety. The safety function for each system (assuming the other system is not functioning) shall be to provide sufficient capacity and capability to ensure that the acceptable fuel design limits and the design conditions of the reactor coolant pressure boundary are not exceeded during an anticipated operational occurrence and that core cooling, containment integrity, and other vital functions are maintained in the event of an accident.29 AB. General Design Criteria 27 (GDC 27) and 28 (GDC 28), as they relate to the reactor 30 coolant system being designed with appropriate margin to assureensure that acceptable 31 fuel design limits are not exceeded and that the capability to cool the core is maintained. 15.1.5-5 DRAFT Rev. 3 - April 1996 BC. General Design Criterion 31 (GDC 31), as it relates to the reactor coolant system being 32 designed with sufficient margin to assureensure that the boundary behaves in a nonbrittle manner and that the probability of propagating fracture is minimized. CD. General Design Criterion 35 (GDC 35), as it relates to the reactor cooling system and 33 associated auxiliaries being designed to provide abundant emergency core cooling. In addition, task action plan items necessary to meet the requirements to maintain adequate decay heat removal and reactor coolant pump integrity and operation are Items II.E.1.2, II.K.2.1, II.K.2.8, II.K.3.5, II.K.2.16, II.K.3.25, and II.K.3.40 of NUREGs
