cilities licensed under 10 CFR Part 50, in that verification of the satisfactory completion of these requirements will be a condition of the license. Once completion of ITAAC and the supporting design information demonstrate that the facility has been properly constructed, it then becomes the function of existing programs such as the technical specifications, the maintenance program, and the in-service inspection and in-service testing program to demonstrate that the facility continues to operate in accordance with the certified design and the license. Additionally, a utility referencing the design is required by 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, to have a quality assurance program that ensures that SSCs are appropriately designed, procured, and perform satisfactorily in service. Further, the operator ensures the facility is operated as designed, through the use of appropriate plant operating and emergency procedures. d. Discussion of Matters Related to Operations Descriptions in Tier 1 may refer to matters of operation, such as normal valve or breaker alignment during normal operational modes. These descriptions are not intended to require operators to take any particular action. The operational matters referred to in Tier 1 are governed by existing programs to ensure the ongoing safe operation of a facility, such as plant operating and emergency procedures. e. Interpretation of Figures The design descriptions include the figures in Tier 1, where the figures are provided. They are intended to depict the functional arrangement of the significant SSCs of the standard design. An as-built facility referencing the certified design must be consistent with the performance characteristics and functions described in the design descriptions and figures.
