ons will focus on the effectiveness of the QAPD implementation. Through review of the information provided by the applicant or holder and, as required, meetings with the applicant or holder; review of applicable NRC inspection reports; and discussion with involved NRC inspectors, a judgment is made of the applicant's or holder’s capability to carry out its QA responsibilities. The reviewer’s satisfaction with the QA program commitments, the description of how the commitments will be met, the organizational arrangements, and the capabilities to fulfill the QAPD should lead to the conclusion of acceptability as described in Subsection IV of this document. The reviewer verifies that the QAP - Operation is fully described and that implementation milestones have been identified. The reviewer verifies that the program and implementation milestones are included in FSAR Table 13.x. Implementation of this program will be inspected in accordance with NRC Inspection Manual Chapter IMC-2504, “Construction Inspection Program – Inspection of Construction and Operational Programs.” For review of a DC application, the reviewer should follow the above procedures to verify that the design set forth in the FSAR meets the acceptance criteria. DCs have referred to the FSAR as the design control document (DCD). The reviewer should also consider the appropriateness of identified COL action items. The reviewer may identify additional COL action items; however, to ensure these COL action items are addressed during a COL application, they should be added to the DC FSAR. For review of a COL application, the scope of the review is dependent on whether the COL applicant references a DC, an ESP or other NRC approvals (e.g., manufacturing license, site suitability report or topical report). For review of both DC and COL applications, SRP Section 14.3 should be followed for the review of ITAAC. The review of ITAAC cannot be completed until after the completion of this section. IV.
