REVIEW RESPONSIBILITIES Primary: Organization responsible for the review of physical security. Secondary: Licensing organization and cognizant review organization according to the standard review plan (SRP) sections identified in the attached sample final safety analysis report (FSAR) Table 13.4-x for integrated review of safety and security in design. I. AREAS OF REVIEW This section provides guidance for the review of combined license (COL) and operating license (OL) applications and amendments for physical security. The staff reviews include the design of engineered physical security systems, hardware, and features (hereinafter referred to as “physical security systems” or PSS), the administrative controls (hereinafter referred to as “operational requirements”) and management systems (program, policies, processes, procedures) for operations and organization within the scope of a COL or OL application. The scope of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff review 13.6.1-2 Revision 2 – August 2018 includes the descriptions used to establish the licensing bases for acceptance of the licensee’s physical protection program; the information required to address the design, construction, and installation of PSS; and the implementation of operational requirements, management systems, and organization for meeting the performance and prescriptive requirements of Title 10, “Energy,” of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) Part 73, “Physical Protection of Plants and Materials.” The areas of review also include topical or technical reports incorporated by reference as part of the COL application (COLA). The NRC staff’s review of the applicant’s or licensee’s bases should consider how all regulatory requirements will be met to support a finding of whether the Commission should grant a request for an operating license or an amendment to a license in accordance with the standards and criteria set forth by the Commission in 10 CFR Part 50,
