Content:
R Part 50, "Quality Assurance Criteria for Nuclear Power Plants and Fuel Processing Plants," establishes overall quality assurance program requirements for the design, fabrication, construc- tion, and testing of safety-related nuclear power plant structures, systems, and components. Section IX of Appendix B relates to the control of special processes. Coating systems are deemed to fall in this category. The qualification program for coating systems should confirm that the systems used on ESF will not possibly stop or slow down the flow rates of the ESF fluids during a design basis accident. Identified quantities of soluble acids and bases within the contain- ment must not be great enough to cause excessive hydrogen generation or deleterious corrosion. The criteria for coatings to be used in containments are described in Regulatory Guide 1.54, "Quality Assurance Requirements for Protective Coatings Applied to Water-Cooled Nuclear Power Plants." This guide describes an acceptable means for meeting the requirements of Appendix B to 10 CFR Part 50 stated above, with regard to protective coatings applied to ferritic steels, aluminum, stainless steel, zinc-coated (galvanized steel) concrete or masonry surfaces of water cooled nuclear power plants. 6.1.1-7 Rev. 2 - July 1981 III. REVIEW PROCEDURES The reviewer will select and emphasize material from the procedures described below, as may be appropriate for a particular case. To ascertain that the acceptance criteria given in subsection II of this SRP section are met, the reviewer examines each of the review areas given in subsection I of this SRP section for the required information, using the following procedure: A. Primary Review Area The MTEB reviewer verifies that the materials proposed for the ESF are in conformance with Appendix I of Section III of the Code, and with parts A, B, and C of Section II of the Code. He verifies that cold-worked austenitic stainless steels used in fabrication of the ESF are in conformance
