N FINDINGS The reviewer verifies that the applicant has provided sufficient information and that the review and calculations (if applicable) support conclusions of the following type to be included in the staff’s safety evaluation report. The reviewer also states the bases for those conclusions. The new and spent fuel storage facilities include the new and spent fuel storage racks, the spent fuel storage pool, the new fuel storage vault, and equipment storage pits. After review of the applicant’s proposed DC, design bases, and safety classification for the new and spent fuel storage facilities and the provisions necessary to maintain a subcritical array and prevent uncontrolled releases of radiation, the staff concludes that the design of the spent fuel storage facility and supporting systems complies with NRC regulations in 10 CFR 20.1101(b), 10 CFR 50.68, and GDCs 2, 4, 5, 61, and 63. This conclusion is based on the following findings: 1. The applicant has met the requirements of GDC 2 by compliance with positions C.1 and C.2 of RG 1.13 and with applicable portions of RGs 1.29 and 1.117. For the spent fuel storage facility, acceptance is also based on compliance with ANS 57.2, paragraphs 5.1.1, 5.1.3, 5.1.12.9, and 5.3.2. For the new fuel storage facility, acceptance is also based on compliance with ANS 57.3, paragraphs 6.2.1.3(2), 6.2.3.1, 6.3.1.1, 6.3.3.4, and 6.3.4.2. 2. The applicant has met the requirements of GDC 4 for environmental and missile protection design basis by compliance with position C.2 and C.3 of RG 1.13 and the applicable portions of RGs 1.115 and 1.117. 3. The applicant has met the requirements of GDC 5 because the failure of any portion of the shared new and spent fuel storage facilities will not impair the ability of plant systems to perform safety functions. 4. The applicant has met the requirements of GDC 61 for new and spent fuel provisions for inspections, shielding, containment, residual heat removal, coolant flow through wet
