uct removal function, considering conditions that could result in fast as well as slow injection of the spray solution. 1Regulatory Guides 1.3 and 1.4 provide guidance related to Technical Information Document (TID) 14844, “Calculation of Distance Factors for Power and Test Reactor Sites.” This guidance is applicable to a holder of an operating license issued prior to January 10, 1997 or a holder of a renewed license under 10 CFR Part 54 whose initial operating license was issued prior to January 10, 1997. These license holders may voluntarily revise the accident source term. Regulatory Guide1.183 is applicable to applicants or license holders issued after January 10, 1997. 6.5.2-10 Revision 4 - March 2007 2. Testing (secondary reviewer). At the construction permit stage, the containment spray concept and the proposed tests of the system are reviewed to confirm the feasibility of verifying the design functions by appropriate testing. At the operating license stage, the proposed tests of the system and its components are reviewed to verify that the tests will demonstrate that the system, as installed, is capable of performing—within the bounds established in the description and evaluation of the system—all functions essential for effective fission product removal following postulated accidents. 3. Technical Specifications (primary reviewer/secondary reviewer). The technical specifications are reviewed to verify that the system, as designed, is capable of meeting the design requirements and that it remains in a state of readiness whenever the reactor is critical. A. Limiting Conditions for Operation. The limiting conditions for operation should require the operability of the containment spray pumps, all associated valves and piping, the appropriate quantity of additives, and any metering pumps or mixing devices. B. Tests. Preoperational testing of the system, including the additive storage tanks, pumps (if any), piping, and valves, is required. In particular,
