Revision 2 – December 2011 There are two types of information presented: $ General information that enables the reviewer or reader to obtain a basic understanding of the overall facility without having to refer to the subsequent chapters. Review of the remainder of the application can be accomplished with a better perspective and recognition of the relative safety-significance of each individual item in the overall plant description. $ Specific information that relates to regulatory considerations that applies throughout the balance of the application (e.g., conformance with the SRP acceptance criteria). The specific areas of review are as follows: 1. Introduction The principal aspects of the overall application are reviewed. These principal aspects include: the type of license requested, the number of plant units, a brief description of the proposed plant location, the type of containment structure and its designer, the type of nuclear steam supply system and its designer, the core thermal power levels (both rated and design), the corresponding net electrical output for each thermal power level, and the scheduled completion date and anticipated commercial operation date of each unit. 2. General Plant Description A summary description of the principal characteristics of the site and a concise description of the facility is reviewed. The facility description should include a brief discussion of the principal design criteria, operating characteristics, and safety considerations for the facility; the engineered safety features and emergency systems; the instrumentation, control, and electrical systems; the power conversion system; the fuel handling and storage systems; the cooling water and other auxiliary systems; and the radioactive waste management system. The general arrangement of major structures and equipment should also be indicated by the use of plan and elevation drawings in sufficient number and detail to provide a reasonable understanding of the general
