are used during the review. IV. EVALUATION FINDINGS The reviewer verifies that sufficient information has been provided in accordance with the requirements of this SRP section and that the evaluation supports the following type of concluding statement, to be included in the staff's Safety Evaluation Report: The staff has reviewed the available information relative to the onsite meteorological measurements program and the data collected by the program. The staff concludes that the system provides adequate data to 2.3.3-5 Rev. 2 - July 1981 represent onsite meteorological conditions as required by 10 CFR Part IOt §100.10. The onsite data also provides an acceptable basis for making estimates of atmospheric dispersion for design basis accident and routine releases from the plant to meet the requirements of 10 CFR Part 100, §100.11 and Appendix I to 10 CFR Part 50. These conclusions are based on the following: 1. The applicant has provided and substantiated information on the meteorological measurements program. 2. The applicant has met the Regulatory Position in Regulatory Guide 1.23 with respect to meteorological data collection and equipment. For the CP review, if adequate meteorological data have not been acquired by the applicant and presented to the staff, a statement requiring the applicant to obtain adequate data in a timely manner will be added. These statements should be preceded by a brief summary description of the onsite meteorological measurements program covering the following items: 1. height and location of meteorological sensors by type, 2. period of data record, 3. data recovery, 4. meteorological parameters used for atmospheric diffusion estimates. V. IMPLEMENTATION The following provides guidance to applicants and licensees regarding the staff's plans for using the SRP section. *Except in those cases in which the applicant proposes an acceptable alternative method for complying with specified portions of the Commission's regulations, the method
