1. USE AND APPLICATION
The TECHNICAL SAFETY REQUIREMENTS (TSRs) for the BUILDING991
COMPLEX establish those requirements that define the conditions, safe boundaries, and
ADMINISTRATIVE CONTROLS necessary to ensure safe operation of the facility and reduce
the risk to immediate workers, collocated workers, the public, and the environment from
uncontrolled releases of hazardous materials. There are four types of controls used to provide
this assurance: LIMITING CONDITIONS FOR OPERATION (LCOs), SURVEILLANCE
REQUIREMENTS (SRs), ADMINlSTRATIVE CONTROLS (ACs), and DESIGN
FEATURES. A separate “Use and Application” section proceeds each of the LCO and AC
sections providing information and instructions for using and applying each type of control.
Compliance with all TSRs as written is mandatory.
BASES for each of the TSR controls immediately follow the stated controls rather than
being included as an annex to the TSRs. This facilitates a better understanding of the need for
the control and avoids forcing the reader to search the document for such information.
1.1 DEFINITIONS
NOTE
The defined terms of this section appear in capitalized type throughout the TSRs.

Revision

Provisions relating to organization and management, conduct of
operations, procedures, record-keeping, assessment, and reporting
necessary to ensure the safe operation of a facility.
Specific administrative controls/limits that have been credited in
the Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR) Safety Analysis. AOLs
are credited as providing a reduction in postulated accident
scenario initiation frequency and/or a reduction in postulated
accident scenario consequences. Such controls are more precise
and discrete than those defined by a safety management program
(SMP) or the program elements of a SMP. The AOLs are an
administrative equivalent to hardware requirements specified in
LCOs and, as such, have requirements for verification of the AOL
and requirements for actions following DISCOVERY of a
noncompliance with the AOL.
