of the effective date of this BTP, to specific guidance in assessing the radiological consequences of a postulated failure of a tank containing radioactive materials. D. EVALUATION FINDINGS The health physics and hydrologic engineering staff will document the results of the evaluation of site characteristics and conformance with the SRP radiological acceptance criteria. In its evaluation and conclusions, the health physics staff will refer to the evaluation performed by the hydrologic engineering staff and not reiterate in its analysis and conclusions the results presented by the hydrologic engineering staff in response to SRP Section 2.4.13. Together, the evaluations of the hydrologic engineering and health physics staff support the staff’s conclusions as to whether the SRP acceptance criteria have been met and whether the applicant has appropriately applied applicable NRC guidance. The reviewers will describe what was done to evaluate the applicant’s SAR. The staff’s evaluation will verify the applicant’s results, determine whether the applicant followed applicable regulatory guidance or used an alternative approach, perform independent calculations, and confirm the adequacy of all stated assumptions and model parameters used in the consequence analysis, as well as conclusions presented in the analysis. The reviewers will summarize the information used in assessing the consequence of tank and component failures, including the assumed failure scenarios, the basis of the radioactive source term, site characteristics and parameters used in modeling the transport of radioactivity to the point of entry in unrestricted areas, and exposure scenarios and resulting doses to members of the public who use impacted surface water or groundwater. The reviewers will then articulate the bases for the staff’s conclusions and for acceptance of the results and supporting information. The reviewers will verify that the applicant has provided sufficient information and that
