Standard Plant Design.
The APR1400 stands for Advanced Power Reactor with a 1,400
megawatts electrical power and two-loop pressurized water reactor,
developed in the Republic of Korea. Based on the self-reliant
technologies and experiences from the design, construction, operation
and maintenance of the Optimized Power Reactor 1000 (OPR1000), the
APR1400 adopts advanced design features to enhance plant safety,
economical efficiency, and convenience of operation and maintenance.
The APR1400 application includes the entire power generation complex,
except those elements and features considered site-specific. The
acceptability of the tendered application for docketing and other
matters relating to the requested rulemaking pursuant to 10 CFR 52.51
for design certification, including provisions for participation of the
public and other parties, will be the subject of subsequent Federal
Register notices.
Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 30th day of October 2013.
For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
