NUREG-1537, Part 2 - NRC

DESIGN OF SRUCrURES Sysms. AND COMPOmiS
hydrological historical data and predictions as specified in the format and content
guide for this section. For any such structure, system, or component, the reviewer
should ensure that the design bases are planned to address the consequences and
are described in detail in appropriatechapters of the SAR'.
Evaluation Findngs
This section of the SAR should contain sufficient information to support the
following type of conclusion, which will be included in the stafrs safety evaluation
report:
The design bases to protect'against potential hydro6logical (water) 'daiage
provide'reasonable assurance that the faility structures, systems, and
components will perform the functions necessary to allow any required
reactor operation to continue safely, to'allow safe reactor shutdown, and to
thehealth 'protect and safety of the pubic from'ridi6active materials and
radiation exposure.
3.4 Seismic Damage -
Areas of Reiew ;
Areas of review should include the designs and design bases of structures, systems,
and components that are required to maintain function in case of a seismic event at
the fidlity site.
Acceptance Critena -
The acceptance criteria for the information on seismic damage include the
following: .
* The reactor facility design should provide reasonable assurance that the
reactor can be shut down and maintained in a safe condition.
* The seismic design should be consistent with local building codes to
prvide assurance that significant damage to the facility and associated
safety functions is unlikely.
* The applicant shoild demonstrate that all potential consequences from a
seismic event are within the acceptable limits considered or bounded in the
accident analyses of Chapter 13 to ensure that conditions due to a seismic
event will not pose significant risk to the health and safety of the public.
