spections, tests, and analyses are performed and the acceptance criteria met, a facility that incorporates the DC has been constructed and will be operated in conformity with the DC, the provisions of the Atomic Energy Act, and the Commission’s rules and regulations. 4. 10 CFR 52.80(a), which requires that a COL application contain the proposed inspections, tests, and analyses, including those applicable to emergency planning, that the licensee shall perform, and the acceptance criteria that are necessary and sufficient 3.7.3-5 Revision 4 – September 2013 to provide reasonable assurance that, if the inspections, tests, and analyses are performed and the acceptance criteria met, the facility has been constructed and will operate in conformity with the COL, the provisions of the Atomic Energy Act, Commission’s rules and regulations. SRP Acceptance Criteria Specific SRP acceptance criteria acceptable to meet the relevant requirements of the Commission’s regulations identified above are as follows for review described in this SRP section. The SRP is not a substitute for the Commission’s regulations, and compliance with it is not required. However, an applicant is required to identify differences between this SRP section and the design features, analytical techniques, and procedural measures proposed for the facility, and discussing how the proposed alternatives provide acceptable methods of complying with the regulations that underlie the SRP acceptance criteria. 1. Seismic Analysis Methods. The acceptance criteria provided in SRP Section 3.7.2, Subsection II.1 are applicable. 2. Determination of Number of Earthquake Cycles. During the plant life at least one SSE and five OBEs, if applicable, should be assumed. The number of cycles per earthquake should be obtained from the time history used for the system analysis, or a minimum of 10 maximum stress cycles per earthquake may be assumed. When the OBE is defined as less than one-third the SSE (and therefore the
