REVIEW RESPONSIBILITIES Primary - Radiological Assessment Branch (RAB) Secondary - None I. AREAS OF REVIEW The following areas of the applicant's safety analysis report (SAR) are reviewed, as they relate to radiation sources in normal operations, anticipated operational occurrences, and accident conditions, affecting in-plant radiation protection: 1. Contained Sources The description of radiation sources, durin normal operations and accident conditions in the plant, is used as the basis for designing the radiation | protection program and for shield design calculations SAR Chapter 11 con- tains the description for sources contained in equipment of the radioactive waste management systems). This description should include isotopic com- position, location in the plant, source strength and source geometry, and the basis for the values in the preliminary safety analysis report (PSAR), and update in the final safety analysis report (FSAR). The descriptions should include any required radiation sources containing byproduct, source, and special nuclear materials. 2. Airborne Radioactive Material Sources The description of airborne radioactive material sources in the plant con- sidered in the design of the ventilation systems, and used for design of personnel protective measures and for dose assessment. (SAR Chapter 11 contains the description for airborne sources to be considered for their contribution to the plant effluent releases, through equipment of the radioactive waste management systems or the plant ventilation system.) This description should include a tabulation of the calculated concentrations of radioactive material, by nuclide, expected during normal operation, Rev. 2.July 1981 USNRC STANDARD REVIEW PLAN Standard review plans are prepared for the guidance of the Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation staff responsible for the review of applications to construct and operate nuclear power plants.
