Standard Review Plans for Safety Evaluations The ccmpletion and publication of the set of Standard Review Plans (SRP's) for. the safety evaluation of nuclear power plants represents a najor accomplishment and milestone. You, the staff, and Joe Hendrie are all to be commended. The SRP's represent the integrated result of the hundreds of conscious choices nade by the staff and by the nuclear industry in developing design criteria and design requirements for nuclear power plants. Now that the~ plans are published and in use, they represent the most definitive basis available for specifying NRC's interpretation of an "acceptabic level of safety" for light water reactor facilities.
In recognition of the importance. of SRP's to the staff, the nuclear industry, and the public in a'ssuiing that features that Ere essenliafto protect the public ' health and safety are included in nuclear pouer plant designs, I' expect that the content of the SRP's' will remain fixed except a
for clarification or correction of error. Proposals to modify the plans
~
uill be considered only for catters of major safety significance. Each proposal to modify the Standard Review Plans nust include an i= pact /value, 4
assessment.
Adoption of a substantive increase or decrease in the safe'ty requirenents.
of the Standard Review Plans will require consideration by_ the Directors of Reactor Licensing and Technical Review, review by the Regulatory '
~
Requirements Review Comnittee, and authorization by the Director, NRR.
Standard Review Plans should be used by each NRR project manager and technical reviewer to assure consistent evaluation for all applications.
Careful attention to the uniform implementation of SRP's by each individual NP3 staff cember will assure an acceptable level of safety for all plants
-licensed. The Directors of Reacter Licensing and Technical Review should develop jointly, procedures and guidelines for inplementing' these require--
cents.
