Standard design certification or equivalent design information ... 

A combined license application can reference an early site permit, a standard design certification, both, or neither. If an application does not reference an early site permit and/or a standard design certification, the applicant must provide an equivalent level of information in the combined license application.

CFR Part 52 — Early site permits standard design certifications and combined licenses for nuclear power plants. 

The regulations contained in 10 CFR Part 50 have been used to license current generation light water reactors (LWRs) in the U S A. The regulations in 10 CFR Part 52 provide for many options. Subpart B — Standard design certifications discusses the requirements for testing. In particular. Part 52.47 Contents of applications states ... 

Any length of SPMD with an A V ratio of about 460 cm mL of >95% triolein, having an approximate 0.25 lipid-to-membrane-mass ratio (i.e., 20% lipid) and a 70-95 pm wall thickness is considered a standard SPMD. However, the aforementioned QC certification requirements for the membrane and triolein must be met. Because most SPMD calibration data and field data are based on the standard configuration, the use of non-standard designs for monitoring must be weighed against the lack of data comparability. 

The Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments (CLIA) set standards designed to improve the quality of all laboratory testing. In the first portion of this chapter, we discuss the CLIA requirements that apply to most Immunohistochemistry laboratories, and explain topics such as certification, test complexity, patient test management, proficiency testing, personnel, quality control, quality assurance, and compliance. 

Safety certification of the design would be completed by the supplier, similar to procedures with commercial aircraft. Licensing the use of a factory-fabricated standard design in many different countries would then be similar to approving the use of certified aircraft. The regulatory burden on the user country would be substantially reduced. 

Type Certification Basis All the Airworthiness Standards/Design Codes (e.g. 14 CFR Part 25 or CS-25) and the Operating Rules (e.g. 14 CFR Parts 91,121 or CS-26) which the aircraft has been designed to comply with. 

Committee s recommendation to decouple the OBE from the SSE this decoupling will be reviewed by the NRC staff as part of the review of CESSAR-DC. Any deviations from the requirement of 10 CFR 100 Appendix A, Section V(a)(2) will be authorized through the System 80+, Design Certification rulemaking or other appropriate means. GSI 119.3 is, therefore, resolved for the System 80+ Standard Design. 

An application for a sfandard planf design certification must contain proposed ITAAC for the standard design. Additionally, the application must demonstrate compliance with the Commission s relevanf regulations. 

In addition to the NRC reviews, the ACRS reviews each application for an SDC, together with the NRC staff s SER, in a public meeting. Upon determining that the application meets the relevant standards and regulatory requirements, the NRC staff drafts a rule to issue the SDC as an appendix to the 10 CFR 52 regulations. Members of the public may submit written or oral concerns on the proposed design certification rule however, at its discretion, the NRC may decide to hold a public hearing to address those concerns.

A pre-licensed design certification for a standardized plant with no site specific modifications ... 

Approval and/or certification of the 4S standard design for commercial deployment — in the early 2010s. 

Realization of a standardized design deployable in many countries requires the adoption of a licensing approach that incorporates criteria that are accepted multi-nationally. A model for such an approach is provided by the commercial aircraft industry for which the requirements to achieve certification of an aircraft in the U.S. and Europe are more or less universally accepted.
