Almost all of the airborne radioactivity within the plant is due to equipment leakage. The applicant has provided a tabulation of the maximum expected routine radioactive airborne concentrations in equipment cubicles, corridors, and operating areas, due to equipment leakage. The bases for these leakage calculations are in accordance with Regulatory Guide 1.112. The source terms used to develop these airborne concentration values are comparable to estimates by other applicants with similar designs, and are acceptable. For design certification reviews, the findings will also summarize, to the extent that the review is not discussed in other safety evaluation report sections, the staff’s evaluation of inspections, tests, analyses, and acceptance criteria (ITAAC), including design acceptance criteria (DAC), site interface requirements, and combined license action items that are relevant to this SRP section.25 V.
