R Part 50, Appendix I design objectives; and GDC 2, GDC 19, GDC 60, GDC 61, GDC 63, and GDC 64. The reviewer states the bases for those conclusions, as listed below: 1. With respect to the operational features of the PERMISS, the applicant has included instrumentation for monitoring and sampling radioactivity for contaminated liquid, gaseous, and solid waste process and effluent streams. The staff evaluated the provisions proposed to sample and monitor all appropriate process streams and effluent release points, including nonradioactive systems that could become contaminated through interfaces with radioactive systems. The staff determined that the design and operational features are in accordance with GDC 64 and meet the requirements specified in 10 CFR 50.34(f)(2)(viii), 10 CFR 50.34(f)(2)(xiv)(E),10 CFR 50.34(f)(2)(xvii), 10 CFR 50.34(f)(2)(xxvi), and 10 CFR 50.34(f)(2)(xxvii). 2. With respect to the operational features of the PERMISS, the applicant has included provisions for automatic termination of effluent releases that ensure control over discharges in accordance with GDC 60. The provisions proposed for sampling and monitoring liquid, gaseous, and solid waste process streams under the PCP, are in accordance with GDC 63. The provisions for sampling process and effluent streams and conducting analysis of samples, including the proposed analytical programs, are in accordance with the guidance of RG 1.21, RG 1.33, RG 4.1, RG 4.8, and RG 4.15 for routine plant operation and AOOs for liquid, wet, and solid wastes. 3. With respect to the design and operational features of the PERMISS, the applicant provided sufficient information describing the types, numbers, and placement of radiation monitoring and sampling equipment in plant systems, operational ranges and qualification of radiation detectors in supporting the functions of radiation monitoring systems. The applicant described the functional interdependence and logic in alarming and terminating or diverting
