mation items. 5. Update and establish acceptance criteria based on all performance-based and prescriptive regulatory requirements in 10 CFR 73.55 that are applicable to the design of physical security systems, including the regulatory basis for DC based on 10 CFR Part 52. 6. Update technical rationale based on applying acceptance criteria for areas of review that are rooted in the regulations for licensing, specific requirements for DC, and security requirements applicable to nuclear power reactors. Establish a technical rationale for acceptable level of detail for design descriptions for a DC application and conformance with RG 1.206. 7. Update guidance in review procedures for DC and establish specific standards for physical security reviews of descriptions of the detail of designs and design bases for meeting the performance and prescriptive regulatory requirements of 10 CFR 73.55. 13.6.2-33 Revision 2 – June 2015 8. Revise evaluation findings to reflect the limitations of the approvals available in connection with DC to address only design descriptions of physical security systems within the scope of the DC application. 9. Revise listing of references to guidance that are related to the design of physical security systems and list in a hierarchy of NRC (RG, generic communications, policy statements, NUREGs) and external guidance. The revision considered the licensing experience from physical security reviews of DC applications for new large light-water reactor (LWR) designs (e.g., the U.S. Evolutionary Pressurized Reactor (U.S. EPR), U.S. Advanced Pressurize Water Reactor (U.S. APWR), the NRC security regulatory framework applicable to the licensing of nuclear power reactors, including small modular reactors (integrated pressurized water reactors and advanced reactors), as discussed in SECY-11-0184, “Security Regulatory Framework for Certifying, Approving, and Licensing Small Modular Nuclear Reactors (M110329)” (Agencywide Documents Access and Management
