Content:
t the design and operation of the proposed facility are identified and adequately investigated and characterized. Application of 10 CFR 100.23(c) requires that the geologic and seismic characteristics of the site and its environs be investigated in sufficient scope and detail to permit an adequate evaluation of the proposed site;, to provide sufficient information to support estimates of the SSE ground motion, and to permit adequate engineering solutions to actual or potential geologic and seismic effects at the proposed site. 10 CFR 100.23(c) also specifies that all geologic and seismic factors that might affect design and operation of the proposed nuclear power plant must be investigated. Application of 10 CFR 100.23(d)(2) requires that the geologic and seismic siting factors considered for design include a determination of the potential for surface tectonic and non- tectonic deformations. III. REVIEW PROCEDURES The procedures outlined below are used to review ESP and COL applications that do not reference an ESP to determine whether geologic and seismic information for the proposed site meets the Subsection II “Acceptance Criteria” of this SRP. As applicable, reviews of COLs include a determination on whether the content of technical specifications related to continued
