an accident. In addition to the above criteria, the acceptability of the RHR system may be based on the degree of design similarity with previously approved plants. Deviations from these criteria for other types of RHR systems (e.g., systems that are designed to withstand RCS operating pressure or systems located entirely inside containment) will be considered on an individual basis. For DC and COL reviews, the findings will also summarize the staff=s evaluation of requirements and restrictions (e.g., interface requirements and site parameters) and COL action items relevant to this SRP section. In addition, to the extent that the review is not discussed in other SER sections, the findings will summarize the staff's evaluation of the ITAAC, including design acceptance criteria, as applicable. V. IMPLEMENTATION The staff will use this SRP section in performing safety evaluations of DC applications and license applications submitted by applicants pursuant to 10 CFR Part 50 or 10 CFR Part 52. Except when the applicant proposes an acceptable alternative method for complying with specified portions of the Commission=s regulations, the staff will use the method described herein to evaluate conformance with Commission regulations. The provisions of this SRP section apply to reviews of applications submitted 6 months or more after the date of issuance of this SRP section, unless superseded by a later revision. The referenced BTP 5-4, RGs, NUREGs, and implementation of the acceptance criteria in Subsection II above provide the implementation schedules, summarized as follows, for conformance to parts of the method discussed in this SRP section: 1. Plants with an OL issued before April 1984 and OL applications docketed before April 1984 need not comply with the provisions of this item but may do so voluntarily. 2. Applicants for a construction permit must comply with the provisions of this item. 5.4.7-18 Revision 5 - May 2010 3. The staff will review applications for OLs, DCs,
