represented by the following four groups.

Code of Federal Regulations

1.2.1

Generally, these criteria are provided in federal

regulations from specific sections of Title 10 of the Code of

Federal Regulations (10 CFR). In addition, other federal regula-

tions are listed that were identified in separate NRC criteria

sources for application to licensed reactors.

USNRC Regulatory Guides, SRP Branch Technical Positions

1.2.2

and Appendices

USNRC regulatory guides issued under Division 1, "Power

Reactors," and Division 2, "Research and Test Reactors" are

Regulatory guides from other divi-

listed in this subsection.

sions, such as Division 8, "Occupational Health" also are listed

when pertinent to the areas of safety addressed in the safety

analysis report.

Branch technical positions and appendices to

sections of the SRP are listed because they contain guidance and

requirements that supplement or, in some instances, replace those

provided in regulatory guides.

1.2.3

Codes and Standards

The industry codes and standards listed in this subsec-

tion are those endorsed by the NRC in 10 CFR and regulatory

guides, and those specified in the acceptance criteria and review

procedures of the appropriate sections of Regulatory Guide 1.70

and the SRP.

Depending on when sections of these documents were

revised, their criteria often reference and endorse different

issues of a code or standard. In addition, many of the industry

standards specified in the NRC criteria have been revised or

withdrawn and replaced by more recent standards.

Most of these obsolete standards are no longer issued by

their sponsoring organization and, therefore, are not available

for use by DOE or DOE contractors. Standards specified in the NRC

criteria that were revised or replaced are identified and their

replacement standards also listed.

In most instances, the

revised issues of obsolete standards that are endorsed by

regulatory guides have incorporated the additional requirements

specified in the regulatory guide.

1.2.4
