'i CHAIRMAN SELIN'S COMMENTS ON

{

SECY-93-092 - ISSUES PERTAINING TO THE ADVANCED REACTOR (PRISM, MHTGR, AND PIUS) AND CANDU 3 DESIGNS AND THEIR RELATIONSHIP TO CURRENT REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS i

I approve of the staff's conclusion that, based on the position that the CANDU 3 design is an evolutionary heavy-water design j

deriving from CANDU designs operating in Canada and elsewhere, a i

prototype CANDU 3 is not required for design certification.

I approve of the staff's recommended positions in Enclosure 1 to SECY-93-092 with the following exception:

For the issue of Control Room and Remote Shutdown Area l

Design, the staff should change this to a Category 1 issue for which departures from current regulations may be j

considered.

The preapplication review should be used to j

evaluate the preapplicant's design to determine whether or l

not a different approach to designing the main control room j

and remote shutdown area would be acceptable.
