On the basis of the information presented in the [CP PSAR, OL FSAR, DC FSAR, or COL FSAR] by the applicant, the staff concludes that the applicant intends to implement a radiation protection program that will maintain in-plant radiation exposures as far below the applicable limits of 10 CFR Part 20 as is reasonably achievable and will maintain radiation exposures ALARA. The applicant described the radiation protection program in conformance with 10 CFR 20.1101. The program and its implementation milestones are included within the license condition on operational program implementation. V. IMPLEMENTATION The staff will use this SRP section in performing safety evaluations of DC applications and license applications submitted by applicants pursuant to 10 CFR Part 50 or 10 CFR Part 52. Except when the applicant proposes an acceptable alternative method for
