NUREG-0800 U.S. NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION STANDARD REVIEW PLAN BRANCH TECHNICAL POSITION 7-19 GUIDANCE FOR EVALUATION OF DEFENSE IN DEPTH AND DIVERSITY TO ADDRESS COMMON-CAUSE FAILURE DUE TO LATENT DESIGN DEFECTS IN DIGITAL INSTRUMENTATION AND CONTROL SYSTEMS REVIEW RESPONSIBILITIES Primary – Organization responsible for the review of instrumentation and controls (I&C) to ensure the I&C equipment performs the functions credited in the safety analysis Secondary – Organizations responsible for (1) the review of reactor and containment systems, (2) the review of human factors engineering (HFE), and (3) the review of risk assessments Revision 9 — May 2024 USNRC STANDARD REVIEW PLAN This Standard Review Plan (SRP), NUREG-0800, has been prepared to establish criteria that the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff responsible for the review of applications to construct and operate nuclear power plants intends to use in evaluating whether an applicant/licensee meets the NRC's regulations. The SRP is not a substitute for the NRC’s regulations, and compliance with it is not required. However, an applicant is required to identify differences between the design features, analytical techniques, and procedural measures proposed for its facility and the SRP acceptance criteria, and to evaluate how the proposed alternatives to the SRP acceptance criteria provide an acceptable method of complying with the NRC’s regulations. The SRP sections are numbered in accordance with corresponding sections in Regulatory Guide (RG) 1.70, “Standard Format and Content of Safety Analysis Reports for Nuclear Power Plants (LWR Edition).” Not all sections of RG 1.70 have a corresponding review plan section. The SRP sections applicable to a combined license application for a new light-water reactor are based on RG 1.206, “Combined License Applications for Nuclear Power Plants (LWR Edition).” These documents are made available to the public as part of the NRC's policy to
