Content:
when the alarm system or a component of the alarm system fails, or when the system is operating on backup power. 13.6.1-67 Revision 2 – August 2018 The physical security plan shall describe how the intrusion-detection system is used to initiate a timely response in accordance with implementing procedures, the licensee’s protective strategy, and communication/notification protocols. The physical security plan shall confirm that an uninterruptible power supply keeps the intrusion-detection and -assessment equipment at the protected area’s perimeter operable during the loss of normal power. 30. 10 CFR 73.55(i)(4)—Alarm Stations Guidelines The physical security plan shall confirm that both alarm stations required by 10 CFR 73.55(i)(2) are designed and equipped to ensure that a single act within the capabilities of the design-basis threat addressed in 10 CFR 73.1(a)(1) cannot disable or remove the capabilities of both alarm stations. The physical security plan should generally describe the physical protection program’s design features that support a conclusion that in the event of a single act, at least one alarm station will remain operable where personnel can detect and assess alarms, initiate and coordinate an adequate response to an alarm, summon offsite assistance, and provide command and control, and perform other functions required to successfully accomplish the goals and objectives of the site-specific protective strategy. The physical security plan shall confirm that the central alarm station is located inside a protected area; is bullet-resisting; and has an interior that is not visible from the protected area’s perimeter. The physical security plan shall confirm that both alarm stations are continuously staffed with at least one trained and qualified alarm-station operator and that the alarm-station operator is not assigned other duties or responsibilities which would interfere with their ability to execute the functions required by 10 CFR
