REVIEW RESPONSIBILITIES Primary - Organization responsible for the review of physical security Secondary - None I. AREAS OF REVIEW For ESP applications, the review involves the evaluation, pursuant to 10 CFR 100.21(f), of the site characteristics to provide reasonable assurance that adequate security plans and measures can be developed to meet applicable 10 CFR Part 73, 10 CFR 73.55 requirements, as well as guidance provided in NRC Regulatory Guide (RG) 4.7, Revision 2, "General Site Suitability Criteria for Nuclear Power Stations," issued April 1998.
