nch (ASB) determines that the EDESS is in accordance with Branch Technical Positions ASB 3-1 and MEB 3-1 for breaks in high-energy and moderate-energy piping systems outside containment. The Materials Engineering Branch (MTEB) verifies, upon request, the compatibility of the materials of construction with service conditions. The Procedures and Test Review Branch determines the acceptability of the pre- operational and startup tests as part of its primary review responsibility for SRP Section 14.0. The reviews for fire protection, technical specifications, and quality assurance are coordinated and performed by the Chemical Engineering Branch, Licensing Guidance Branch, and Quality Assurance Branch as part of their primary review responsibility for SRP Sections 9.5.1, 16.0, and 17.0, respectively. For those areas of. review identified above as being part of the primary review responsibility of other branches, the acceptance criteria necessary for the review and their methods of application are contained in the referenced SRP section of the corresponding branch. II. ACCEPTANCE CRITERIA Acceptability of the diesel engine starting system, as described in the appli- cant's safety analysis report (SAR), is based on specific general design criteria, regulatory guides, and industry standards. Information obtained from other Federal agencies and reports, military specifications, available tech- nical literature, and operational performance data obtained from similarly designed systems at other plants having satisfactory operational experience will also be utilized to determine EDESS acceptability. The design of the EDESS is acceptable if the integrated design of the system is in accordance with the following criteria: 1. General Design Criterion 2, as related to the ability of structures housing the system to withstand the effects of natural phenomena such as earthquakes, tornadoes, hurricanes, and floods, as established in Chapters 2 and 3 of the SAR. Acceptance is based on
