The purpose of this Executive Summary is to present, in a readily assimilable form, the salient features of the CRBRP PSAR. To achieve this, the Summary is subdivided into two Parts and is supplemented by four Appendices. In Part I are presented, in condensed form, the important contents of each PSAR Chapter and Appendix. Each summary is intended to convey an overview of the material contained in the Chapter or Appendix, an appreciation of the more significant commitments that the Project is making in that Chapter with emphasis on changes made since the Reference Design Report was issued, and any other items worthy of note in relation to that Chapter. (Note that, although third level design margin requirements are treated in each Chapter of the PSAR, in this Summary they are given in Chapter 15 and are not mentined in the other Chapter Summaries). In Part II are given synopses of items of special interest from the Licensing viewpoint. The majority of these are treating matters which cut across a number of Chapters and it has been considered appropriate to focus on each of these items outside the framework of the Chapters of the PSAR. 3 refs., 15 figs., 16 tabs.
