Technical Safety Requirement (TSR) Format and Content (cont.)

Process variables that are initial conditions for those design basis

accidents or transient analyses which involve the assumed failure

of, or present a challenge to, the integrity of a radioactive material

barrier.

Systems and equipment that are used for handling fissile material

The term unusual conditions is made clear in the final rule by

specifying that alternatives which would preclude exposures higher

than the prescribed dose limits must be either unavailable or

impractical.

h. Special test exceptions may be allowed under controlled conditions.

4. Surveillance Requirements (SRs)

SR Statements consist of short descriptions of each requirement and its

frequency of performance. A frequency of performance is mandatory.

These statements should be as brief as possible, but should identify

those requirements needed to ensure compliance with the LCS or LCO.

Each Surveillance Requirement should begin with a verb. Consistency in

the use of terms and sentence structure between requirements is

important.

5. Administrative controls (ACs)

This section should impose administrative requirements necessary to

control operation of the facility such that it meets the TSRs. These

include:

Contractor Responsibility

Contractor Organization
