P- The guestian of appropriate selsde design of nuclear power plants I

'13 toward shoosing design methods or design parameters with mon een-gF servatism ha is meesssary Adeguate seisnie design guides that ,

y Before seisnie design guides er parsmaters are adopted for sones of  ;

relative seismie gaiet, h Committee suggests further eensideration l of the guestion of earthquake probability and magnitude for these ,
