shall include proposed generic technical specifications, as required by 10 CFR 50.36(a)(2), which should be derived from the analyses and evaluations included in the proposed DC FSAR. Throughout this guidance, it should be understood, when referring to the DC, that both the specifications and associated bases are encompassed in the term “generic technical specifications.” In accordance with the DCR appendices of 10 CFR Part 52, departures from the generic technical specification bases are treated the same as departures from the associated generic technical specifications. NRC has published Standard Technical Specifications (STS) for various reactor designs as NUREG publications in response to the “Final Commission Policy Statement on Technical Specifications Improvement for Nuclear Power Plants”, dated July 22 1993 (FRN 39132) (Ref. 41). The STS represented by NUREGs 1430 (Ref. 42), 1431 (Ref. 43), 1432 (Ref. 44), 1433 (Ref. 45), and 1434 (Ref. 46) as well as NUREG-2194 were developed with extensive public technical meetings with owners groups and vendors for each reactor type. They are maintained for each of the Nuclear Stream Supply Systems owners groups. Office Instruction LIC-600, Review of Technical Specifications Task Force (TSTF) Travelers and Creation of "CLIIP" Model Applications” (Ref. 47) provides information on this process. A DC application’s proposed generic technical specifications should conform to the format and be consistent with the content of the most recent version of the STS appropriate to the design proposed for certification to the extent that existing STS apply. DG-1325, Page-21 A COLA referencing a DC should include proposed plant-specific technical specifications and bases. The plant-specific technical specifications should be derived from the analyses and evaluations included in the proposed SAR. They should encompass the generic technical specifications and bases of the certified design, the departures from the DCD of the
