ate that the site parameters in the design certification rule are met at a given site as part of an application and issuance of a combined license under Subpart C of 10 CFR Part 52. If the site cannot meet these site parameters, an exemption must be requested in accordance with the change process in the rule certifying the design. Also, consideration of hazards and parameters that were not previously considered as part of the design certification is done as part of a combined license application on a site-specific basis. Examples may include proximity to air traffic patterns, toxic hazards, and transportation. III. REVIEW PROCEDURES 1. Follow the general procedures for review of Tier 1 contained in the Review Procedures section of SRP Section 14.3. Ensure that the DCD is consistent with Appendix A to SRP Section 14.3. 2. Review the site parameters in Tier 1 and DCD Tier 2 Chapter 2 to ensure that the appropriate site parameters are specified, and their values are appropriate for many potential sites. Review Tier 1 to ensure that all information is consistent with the DCD Tier 2 information. 3. Review the appropriate analyses for evaluation of the site parameters in the DCD Tier 2 for adequacy, and ensure that the top-level site parameters are specified in Tier 1. DRAFT Rev. 0 - April 1996 14.3.1-4 4. Ensure that the inputs from PERB regarding atmospheric dispersion site parameters are appropriately treated in Tier 1 and DCD Tier 2 Chapter 2. IV. EVALUATION FINDINGS The reviewer verifies that sufficient information has been provided to satisfy the requirements of this SRP section, and concludes that Tier 1 is acceptable. The findings should support the following type of overall conclusive statement to be included in the staff's safety evaluation report: "(The applicant) provided site parameters postulated for the certified design in Tier 1 and in the appropriate sections of the DCD Tier 2. The appropriate sections of the DCD Tier 2 information also provided an
