Revision 2 – October 2016 assumed in the design and licensing bases for engineered controls to perform their intended security functions. 2. Hazardous Material in Vicinity, Onsite, and Nearby Industrial, Military, and Transportation Facilities (a) Potential hazardous materials (gases, liquids, solids) in vicinity and on-site, such as chemicals, flammables, explosives, or radioactive materials, do not present impediments to design of or plans for engineered and administrative controls for a physical protection system. Information demonstrates that engineered and administrative controls for physical security can be developed and planned, respectively, in events of postulated maximum credible accidents (e.g., explosions, flammable vapor clouds, toxic chemicals, fires, liquid spills) involving hazardous material in vicinity and on site, including onsite transportation of hazardous materials, to maintain at all times the required security postures meeting the requirements of 10 CFR Part 73. (b) Postulated maximum credible accidents and consequences analyzed for vicinity and onsite hazards for safety of nuclear reactor and operations are applied to determine possible impediments. Information demonstrates that the designs, specifications, and configuration of physical security systems and plans for operational requirements can be developed such that required security measures can be maintained available and reliable to perform their intended security functions. Examples: (1) security structures or fighting positions can be spatially separated at safe distances to protect against effects of hazard, (2) engineered physical security systems can be designed to protect security functions by protecting against hazardous environments for continued security functions of systems and security responders, (3) engineered measures can be designed to protect security functions of SSCs exposed to hazardous or corrosive environments and consequences of postulated maximum credible
