STD DEP 1.1-1 STP DEP 1.1-2 STP DEP 10.1-3 (Figure 1.1-2) STD DEP Vendor 1.1.1 Format and Content The information in this subsection of the reference ABWR DCD is incorporated by reference with the following site-specific supplement. The STP Combined License Application (COLA), Part 2, Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR) incorporates the ABWR DCD, as applicable, by reference, without repeating the information from the DCD. The reference ABWR DCD refers to U.S. ABWR Design Control Document, GE Nuclear Energy, Revision 4 dated March 1997, as approved in 10 CFR Part 52, Appendix A, and as modified by the STP Nuclear Operating Company Application to Amend the Design Certification Rule for the U.S. Advanced Boiling Water Reactor (ABWR), "ABWR STP Aircraft Impact Assessment (AIA) Amendment Revision 3," dated September 23, 2010. The FSAR, as required by the ABWR design certification rule (10 CFR 52, Appendix A, Section IV.A.2.a), maintains the ABWR DCD organization and numbering system.
