terface requirements and site parameters). For a COL application referencing a DC, a COL applicant must address COL action items (referred to as COL license information in certain DCs) included in the referenced DC. Additionally, a COL applicant must address requirements and restrictions (e.g., interface requirements and site parameters) in the referenced DC. Review Interfaces Other SRP sections interface with this section as follows: 1. The following aspects of the risk evaluations and severe accident evaluations are reviewed in SRP Section 19.0: • the probabilistic and severe accident evaluation methods • the risk insights and key assumptions • quality control, technical adequacy, and maintaining or upgrading of the PRA 2. The applicant’s program for RTNSS, which is reviewed under SRP Section 19.3, identifies RTNSS SSCs for passive plant designs. These RTNSS SSCs are within the scope of the RAP. 3. The applicant's QA program description, which is reviewed under SRP Section 17.5, and maintenance rule program, which is reviewed under SRP Section 17.6, address reliability assurance activities associated with reactor design, construction, and operation. 4. Additional guidance on ITAAC is provided in SRP Section 14.3. II. ACCEPTANCE CRITERIA Requirements Acceptance criteria are based on meeting the relevant requirements of the following Commission regulations: 1. Each design-specific rulemaking incorporates a requirement to provide a RAP. This becomes part of an application for a COL that references a certified design. The staff will verify the D-RAP using the ITAAC process. This is in accordance with Commission policy documented in the SRM for SECY-95-132, "Policy and Technical Issues Associated with the Regulatory Treatment of Non-Safety Systems (RTNSS) in Passive Plant Designs," Item E, “Reliability Assurance Program.” 2. 10 CFR 52.47(b)(1), which requires that a DC application contain the proposed ITAAC that are necessary and sufficient to provide
