ures in SRP Section 14.3 (proposed), to verify that the design set forth in the standard safety analysis report, including inspections, tests, analysis, and acceptance criteria (ITAAC), site interface requirements and combined license action items, meet the acceptance criteria given in subsection II. SRP Section 14.3 (proposed) contains procedures for the review of certified design material (CDM) for the standard design, including the site parameters, interface criteria, and ITAAC.83 IV. EVALUATION FINDINGS The reviewer should verify that sufficient information has been provided to satisfy the requirements of this SRP section and that the evaluation supports conclusions of the following type, to be included in the staff's safety evaluation report: The staff concludes that the fuel system of the ________ plant has been designed so that (a) the fuel system will not be damaged as a result of normal operation and anticipated operational occurrences, (b) fuel damage during postulated accidents would not be severe enough to prevent control rod insertion when it is required, and (c) core coolability will always be maintained, even after severe postulated accidents and thereby meets the related requirements of 10 CFR Part 50, §50.46; 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix A, General DRAFT Rev. 3 - April 1996 4.2-18 Design Criteria 10, 27 and 35; 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix K; and 10 CFR Part 100. 84 This conclusion is based on the following: 1. The applicant has provided sufficient evidence that these design objectives will be met based on operating experience, prototype testing, and analytical predictions. Those analytical predictions dealing with structural response, control rod ejection (PWR) or drop (BWR), and fuel densification have been performed in accordance with (a) the guidelines of Regulatory Guides 1.60, 1.77, and 1.126, or methods that the staff has reviewed and found to be acceptable alternatives to those Regulatory Guides, and (b) the guidelines for "Evaluation of Fuel
