d reactor design] design control document. Therefore, the staff concludes that the distance to the EAB and to the LPZ boundary of the [name] site, in conjunction with the engineered safety features as described in the [name] certified standard design, are sufficient to provide reasonable assurance that the total radiological consequences of the design basis accidents considered in the [name] certified design will be within the radiological consequence evaluation factors of 10 CFR 50.34(a)(1). [or:] As set forth above, the staff has reviewed the site-specific short-term χ/Q values at the EAB and at the boundary of the LPZ for the proposed site in the ESP application and found that they exceed the postulated design basis χ/Q values specified in the [name of certified reactor design] design control document. However, the staff has verified that the applicant has demonstrated that the radiological consequences associated with the bounding DBAs using its site-specific χ/Q values meet the radiological consequence evaluation factors identified in 10 CFR 50.34(a)(1). Therefore, the staff concludes that the distance to the EAB and to the LPZ boundary of the [name] site, in conjunction with the engineered safety features as described in the [name] certified standard design, are sufficient to provide reasonable assurance that the total radiological consequences of the design basis accidents considered in the [name] certified design will be within the radiological consequence evaluation factors of 10 CFR 50.34(a)(1). 2. ESP application that uses the PPE approach. As set forth above, the applicant submitted its radiological consequence analyses using the site-specific short-term χ/Q values and the plant parameter envelope (PPE) source term values and concluded that the proposed site meets the radiological consequence evaluation factors identified in Section 50.34(a)(1). The results of the applicant’s radiological consequence dose calculation are provided in Table [ ], and
