AREAS OF REVIEW Section 50.36 of 10 CFR Part 50 requires that each operating license issued by the Commission contain technical specifications that set forth the limits, operating conditions, and other requirements imposed upon facility operation for the protection of the health and safety of the public. As part of the regulatory standardization effort, the staff has prepared generic standard 3 technical specifications (STSs) for each of the light-water reactor nuclear steam supply systems 4 and associated balance-of-plant equipment systems. These STSs are subject to revision, and the 5 DRAFT Rev. 2 - April 1996 16.0-2 latest versions are available from the Division of Technical Information and Document Control, NRCGovernment Printing Office Sales Program and the National Technical Information Service. The initial implementation of the STS program was made on the D. C. Cook operating 6 license issued in October 1974. All subsequent operating licenses issued by the Commission will utilize the appropriate generic STS as the basis for issuance of Appendix A of licenses, 7 "Technical Specifications." The current STS were developed as the result of the Commission's Technical Specifications Improvement Program
