Full text

(a) In addition to the PSAR, the application must include the following: (1) An environmental report either under § 51.50(a) of this chapter if an LWA under § 53.1130 is not requested in conjunction with the CP application, or under §§ 51.49 and 51.50(a) of this chapter if an LWA is requested in conjunction with the CP application; or (2) If the applicant wishes to request that an LWA under § 53.1130 be issued before issuance of the CP, the information otherwise required by § 53.1130, in accordance with either § 2.101(a)(1) through (a)(5), or § 2.101(a)(9) of this chapter. (b) If the CP application references an early site permit, standard design approval, standard design certification, or ML issued under this part, then the following requirements apply: (1) The PSAR need not contain information or analyses submitted to the Commission in connection with the referenced NRC approval, license,, or certification, provided, however, that the PSAR incorporates the material by reference and confirms that the site and design of the facility falls within parameter values postulated in the referenced NRC approval, license, or certification. (2) The PSAR must provide a means to demonstrate that all terms and conditions that have been included in the referenced NRC approval, license, or certification will be satisfied by the date of issuance of the OL, as appropriate. If the PSAR does not demonstrate that each site characteristic falls within the corresponding postulated site parameter and each design characteristic of the facility falls within the corresponding postulated design parameter, the application must justify a departure, variance, or exemption from the referenced NRC approval, license, or certification in regard to that particular site or design characteristic in compliance with the requirements of this part. (3) If a referenced early site permit approves complete and integrated emergency plans, or major features of emergency plans, then the PSAR must include any new or additional information that updates and corrects the information that was provided under § 53.1146(b)(2) and discuss whether the new or additional information materially changes the bases for compliance with the applicable requirements.
