tion of the ESF systems following automatic initiation by the protection system or manual initiation by the plant operator. The NRC staff concludes that the design of the ESFAS is acceptable and meets the relevant requirements of GDC 1, 2, 4, 10, 13, 15, 16, 19-24, 29, 33, 34, 35, 38, 41, and 44, and 10 CFR 50.34(f), 10 CFR 50.54(jj) and 10 CFR 50.55(i), and 10 CFR 50.55a(h). The staff conducted a review of these systems for conformance to the guidelines in the RGs, industry standards and branch technical positions applicable to these systems. The staff concludes that the applicant/licensee acceptably identified the guidelines applicable to these systems. Based upon the review of the system design for conformance to the guidelines, the staff concludes that the systems conform to the guidelines applicable to these systems. Therefore, the staff finds that the requirements of GDC 1 and 10 CFR 50.54(jj) and 10 CFR 50.55(i) have been met. The review included the identification of those systems and components for the ESFAS and ESF control systems that are designed to survive the effects of earthquakes, other natural phenomena, abnormal environments, and missiles. Based upon the review, the staff concludes that the applicant or licensee has identified those systems and components consistent with the design bases for those systems. Sections 3.10 and 3.11 of the SER address the qualification programs to demonstrate the capability of these systems and components to survive the above effects. Therefore, the staff finds that the identification of these systems and components satisfies the requirements of GDC 2 and 4. Based on the review of ESFAS and ESF control system status information, manual initiation capabilities, control capabilities, and provisions to support safe shutdown, the staff concludes that information is provided to monitor the system over the anticipated ranges for normal operation, for anticipated operational occurrences, and for accident conditions as
