blish the acceptability of such a material. Similarly, any new quality control procedures or construction techniques are evaluated in detail to assure that there will be no degradation of quality that might affect the structural integrity of the foundation. 7. Testing and Inservice Surveillance Programs For the containment foundation, testing and in-service surveillance programs are reviewed in accordance with subsection 11.7 of SRP Section 3.8.1 for concrete containments. Any testing and in-service surveillance programs for other seismic Category I foundations are reviewed on a case-by-case basis. IV. EVALUATION FINDINGS The reviewer verifies that sufficient information has been provided to satisfy the requirements of this SRP section, and concludes that his evaluation is sufficiently complete and adequate to support the following type of conclusive statement to be included in the staff's Safety Evaluation Report: The staff concludes that the design of the seimic Category I foundations are acceptable and meets the relevant requirements of 10 CFR Part 50, §50.55a, and General Design Criteria 1, 2, 4, and 5. This conclusion is based on the following: 1. The applicant has met the requirements of Section 50.55a and GDC 1 with respect to assuming that the seismic Category I foundations are designed, fabricated, erected, constructed, tested and inspected to quality standards commensurate with its safety function to be performed by meeting the guidelines of Regulatory Guides and industry standards indicated below. 2. The applicant has met the requirements of GCD 2 by designing the seismic Category I foundation to withstand the most severe earthquake that has been established for the site with sufficient margin and the combinations of the effects of normal and accident conditions with the effects of environmental loadings such as earthquakes and other natural phenomena. 3. The applicant has met the requirements of GDC 4 by assuring that the design of seismic Category I
