(10 CFR) Part 52, “Licenses, Certifications, and Approvals for Nuclear Power Plants.” Review Interfaces Other SRP sections interface with this section as follows: 7 Tsunamis typically consists of multiple waves in the form or a wave train in which the leading wave possesses the highest amplitude. Consequently, the inundation phase may extend well beyond the first wave in the wave train. 2.4.6-5 Revision 4 - September 2018 1. The flooding protection measures, if necessary, for ensuring that SSCs important to safety can perform their intended safety functions, are reviewed in SRP Section 2.4.10, “Flooding Protection Requirements.” 2. The staff review to ensure that adverse environmental conditions, including those from loss of water due to drawdown during the receding tsunami wave, seiching induced by the tsunami wave, or blockage from sedimentation, will not preclude the safety function of the ultimate heat sink is performed under SRP Section 9.2.5, “Ultimate Heat Sink.” 3. The NRC organization responsible for the review of issues related to seismology provides information regarding the seismic displacement that may result in tsunami or tsunami-like waves. For DC applications and COL applications referencing a DC rule or DC application, staff review of the site parameters in the Design Control Document (DCD) Tier 1 and Chapter 2 of the DCD Tier 28 submitted by the applicant is performed under SRP Section 2.0, “Site Characteristics and Site Parameters.” Staff review of site characteristics and site-related design parameters in ESP applications or in COL applications referencing an ESP is also performed under Section 2.0. The specific acceptance criteria and review procedures are contained in the referenced SRP sections. II. ACCEPTANCE CRITERIA Regulatory Requirements The acceptance criteria described in this SRP section are based on addressing the following Commission regulations: 1. 10 CFR Part 100, “Reactor Site Criteria,” as it relates to
