s for protecting the plant against potential acts of radiological sabotage and the theft of special nuclear material. The applicant adequately described the design of the physical security elements in accordance with 10 CFR 73.2, 10 CFR 73.55, and applicable regulatory guidance. The applicant identified, in its application, the physical security elements within the scope of the design used for the protection of the facility and special nuclear material, provisions for addressing ITAAC for design features, and COL action items. Accordingly, the staff concludes that the applicant provided reasonable 13.6.2-16 Revision 1 – October 2010 assurance that the physical security elements within the scope of the plant design will provide adequate protection against acts of radiological sabotage and the theft of special nuclear material in accordance with 10 CFR 73.55. (Note that the theft of nuclear material consideration is only for those designs intended to use mixed oxide fuel.) V. IMPLEMENTATION The staff will use this SRP section in performing safety evaluations of DC applications submitted by applicants under 10 CFR Part 50 or 10 CFR Part 52. Except when the applicant proposes an acceptable alternative method for complying with specified portions of the Commission’s regulations, the staff will use the method described herein to evaluate conformance with Commission regulations. The provisions of this SRP section apply to reviews of applications immediately to accommodate DC and COL application schedules. VI. REFERENCES 1.
