l conditions. III. REVIEW PROCEDURES The reviewer will select material from the procedures described below, as may be appropriate for a particular case. 2.4.14-6 Revision 3 - March 2007 The procedures outlined below are used to review CP applications, ESP applications, and COL applications that do not reference an ESP to determine whether data and analyses for the proposed site meet the acceptance criteria given in Subsection II of this SRP section. For reviews of OL applications, these procedures are used to verify that the data and analyses remain valid and that the facility’s design specifications are consistent with these data. As applicable, reviews of OLs and COLs include a determination on whether the content of technical specifications related to hydrology-related site characteristics are acceptable and whether the technical specifications reflect consideration of any identified unique conditions. These review procedures are based on the identified SRP acceptance criteria. For deviations from these acceptance criteria, the staff should review the applicant’s evaluation of how the proposed alternatives provide an acceptable method of complying with the relevant NRC requirements identified in Subsection II. 1. Bases for Emergency Actions: The staff reviews controlling hydrological events, including floods and low-water events, that may require emergency actions to ensure safe operation of the plant. The staff reviews flood-causing mechanisms in SAR Sections 2.4.2 through 2.4.7 and in Section 2.4.9. The controlling hydrologic event with its effects (e.g., flood water surface elevation, hydrostatic and hydrodynamic forces, erosion, sedimentation) should be identified as well as the emergency actions are to be initiated. The staff also reviews low-water events that may require emergency actions. Low-water events resulting from loss of storage due to dam-failures are reviewed in SAR Section 2.4.4; those due to surges and seiches are reviewed in SAR Section
