l protect a nuclear power plant and its nuclear operations against the DBT of radiological sabotage resulting from significant core damage or loss of spent fuel pool cooling. The requirement of 10 CFR 73.55(b)(3)(ii), as it relates to the design of physical protections systems, is satisfied when design descriptions include how physical security systems will be designed to address each element of a physical protection system for capability to detect, assess, communicate, and respond (interdict and neutralize). It includes the design and specifications addressing the reliability and availability of physical security systems that are providing or are relied on by administrative controls (i.e., people and procedures) for meeting high assurance of detection, assessment, interdiction, and neutralization. Therefore, the design descriptions should address each element of a physical protection system and must meet the requirements of 10 CFR 73.55(b)(3)(i) and (b)(3)(ii), as they relate to the design of physical security systems. At a minimum, applicants should address the following to satisfy the requirements of 10 CFR 73.55(b)(3)(i) and (b)(3)(ii) as they relate to design of physical security systems. The information submitted must be sufficient for completing detailed design for procurement, construction, and installation of physical security systems that meet regulatory requirements: A. Interior and Exterior Intrusion Detection and Assessment: The descriptions of designs and specifications should be of sufficient detail to establish, but not limit, the following for engineered physical security systems providing intrusion detection and assessment: (1) types of systems, their applications, and intended functions; (2) installation and location of systems and subsystems, including specific areas of coverage; (3) configurations of major structures, systems, and subsystems and their locations and systems interfaces; (4) configurations and protection of electrical and alarm
