health and safety of the public. 9. The acceptability of the design of physical security systems will be based on descriptions that demonstrate (i.e., provide evidence) how the applicant’s proposed standard design incorporated physical security systems or plant systems or features that meet requirements of 10 CFR Part 52 or 10 CFR 50 and 10 CFR Part 73. III. REVIEW PROCEDURES The generic considerations covered in the staff’s review of a DC application include the following: 1. The staff bases its review on the identified SRP acceptance criteria stated in Section II of this SRP section. The SRP is not a substitute for the NRC’s regulations, and compliance with it is not required. Identifying the differences between this SRP section and the design features, analytical techniques, and procedural measures proposed for the facility, and discussing how the proposed alternative provides an acceptable method of complying with the regulations that underlie the acceptance criteria, is sufficient to meet 10 CFR 52.47(a)(9). For deviations from these acceptance criteria, the staff must review the applicant’s evaluation of how the proposed alternatives provide an acceptable method for complying with the relevant NRC requirements identified in Section II of this SRP section. 2. The primary reviewer reviews the application for DC (i.e., Tier 1 and Tier 2 (FSAR) and referenced technical reports) related to the design bases and design descriptions for physical security systems. The reviewer determines whether the scope of the DC application conforms to, and descriptions are provided to address, the physical security systems design descriptions and requirements identified in Table No. 13.6.2.1 in Section I of this SRP section. This section provides the basis for acceptance of the application for consideration of further technical review. The failure to provide, in the contents of the application, the design descriptions addressing the physical security systems conforming to
