references a DC, an ESP or other NRC approvals (e.g., manufacturing license, site suitability report or topical report). For review of both DC and COL applications, SRP Section 14.3 should be followed for the review of ITAAC. The review of ITAAC cannot be completed until after the completion of this section. IV. EVALUATION FINDINGS The reviewer verifies that the applicant has provided sufficient information and that the review and calculations (if applicable) support conclusions of the following type to be included in the staff's safety evaluation report. The reviewer also states the bases for those conclusions. The staff concludes that the design of the seismic Category I foundations is acceptable and meets the relevant requirements of 10 CFR 50.55a, 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, and GDCs 1, 2, 4, and 5. This conclusion is based on the following: 1. The applicant has met the requirements of 10 CFR 50.55a and GDC 1 with respect to ensuring that the seismic Category I foundations are designed, fabricated, erected, constructed, tested, and inspected to quality standards commensurate with the safety functions to be performed by meeting the guidelines of RGs and industry standards indicated below. 2. The applicant has met the requirements of GDC 2 by designing the seismic Category I foundation described in this section to withstand not only the most severe earthquake that has been established for the site with sufficient margin, but also the combinations of the effects of normal and accident conditions with the effects of environmental loadings, such as earthquakes and other natural phenomena. 3. The applicant has met the requirements of GDC 4 by ensuring that the designs of seismic Category I foundations are capable of withstanding the dynamic effects associated with missiles, pipe whipping, and discharging fluids. 4. The applicant has met the requirements of GDC 5 by demonstrating that SSCs are not shared between units or that, if shared, they have demonstrated that
