Introduction

Standard Review Plans (SRPs) are prepared to guide Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation (NRR) staff responsible for the review of applications to construct and operate nuclear power plants; SRPs are "living documents" and are updated periodically to reflect changes in the regulatory environment such as Federal statutes, NRC and sister agency regulations, Commission policy and practices. SRPs and other regulatory guidance are made available to the public as part of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) policy to inform the nuclear industry and the general public of regulatory procedures and policies. SRPs are not substitutes for regulatory guides or for the Commission's regulations, and compliance with them is not required. Safety SRP sections are keyed to the Standard Format and Content of Safety Analysis Reports for Nuclear Power Plants, Regulatory Guide 1. 70. Not all sections of the Regulatory Guide have corresponding review plans.

This document was compiled as an overarching document to assist NRC staff, license transfer applicants and the general public by directing attention toward relevant regulatory guidance necessary to complete the license transfer application process pursuant to 10 CFR 50.80; this guidance includes the SRPs and other NUREG publications. The major areas of concentration of these documents are:

• Financial Qualification
• Decommissioning Funding
• Foreign Ownership
• Antitrust
• Nuclear Insurance
• Human Factors
• Technical Qualifications
