Content:
exhaust system, as described in the applicant's safety analysis report (SAR), is based on specific general design criteria and regulatory guides and industry standards. Information obtained from other Federal agencies and reports, military specifications, available technical literature, and operational perfor- mance data obtained from similarly designed systems at other plants having satis- factory operational experience will also be utilized to determine EDECAIES accept- ability. The design of the EDECAIES is acceptable if the integrated design of the sys- tem is in accordance with the following criteria: 1. General Design Criterion 2, as related to the ability of structures housing the system and system components to withstand the effects of natural phenomena 9.5.8-2 Rev. 2 - July 1981 such as earthquakes, tornadoes, hurricanes, and floods, as established in Chapters 2 and 3 of the SAR. Acceptance is based on meeting Appendix Position 13 of Regulatory Guide 1.117 as related to the protection of structures, systems, and components important to safety from the effects of tornado missiles. 2. General Design Criterion 4, with respect to structures housing the sys- tems and the system components being capable of withstanding the effects of external missiles and internally generated missiles, pipe whip, and jet impingement forces associated with pipe breaks. Acceptance is based on meeting Position C.1 of Regulatory Guide 1.115 as related to the pro- tection of structures, systems, and components important to safety from the effects of turbine missiles. 3. General Design Criterion 5, as related to shared systems and components important to safety being capable of performing required safety functions. 4. General Design Criterion 17 as related to the capability of the diesel engine air starting system to meet independence and redundancy criteria. Acceptance is based on meeting the following specific criteria: a. Regulatory Guide 1.9 as related to the design of the diesel
