nfigured, built, and installed to perform intended security functions in anticipated exposures to severe weather and environmental conditions. (c) Information to demonstrate that security measures and plans can be developed may reference and describe specific local and national building codes, consensus industry standards, and independent laboratories certifications, which prescribe designs and specifications for SSCs to withstand and operate in, and protect against, anticipated severe weather and environmental conditions. Where environmental conditions are extreme and/or not readily addressed in available industry standards, codes, or certifications, information should demonstrate that adequate security plans and measures can be developed given the site characteristics and design parameters. 4. Floods and Low Water Conditions The probable maximum flood conditions (e.g., streams and rivers, hurricane costal surges, wind-induced, seiches, tsunamis, seismically induced dam failures or breaches, landslides, stream blockage, ice accumulations) are considered in determining if such conditions present impediments to design of engineered and administrative controls for a physical protection system. (a) Identified probable maximum flood for individual types of flood-producing phenomena and combinations of flood-producing phenomena analyzed and established flood design bases for nuclear power reactor and operations on the proposed site are considered in determining challenges or impediments to
