0 CFR 52.24(b). This approach applies to security and is acceptable for the reviewer to determine if the applicant’s security-related PPE values encompass the site characteristics consistent with 10 CFR Part 52.17(a)(1)(x). Specific Acceptance Criteria for Security Consistent with the framework established by RS-002, the SRP acceptance criteria below address the key site characteristics that potentially affect security in meeting the regulatory requirements of 10 CFR 52.17(a)(1)(x). This requirement is satisfied when the ESP applicant provides sufficient and adequate descriptions of how the site characteristics, as indicated in Table 1, are considered and provides the information and technical bases for the applicant’s licensing basis supporting the finding that security plans and measures can be developed. Specifically, the reviewer should evaluate whether plans and measures for a physical protection system that provides the security postures (i.e., capabilities to detect, assess, interdict, and neutralize threats and implement security programs) based on engineered and administrative controls can be developed to meet the requirements of 10 CFR Part 73. As applicable, management systems (which establish processes, procedures, and organizations to maintain reliable and available required security postures that may be affected by site characteristics) and information demonstrating that plans for management systems that meet the requirements of 10 CFR Part 73 can be developed are also considered. The requirements of 10 CFR 52.17(a)(1)(x) are satisfied when information submitted by the applicant is sufficient and complete to establish a licensing basis that considers the following site characteristics: 1. Site Location (a) Distance from the reactor or reactors to the site boundaries within the exclusion area provides sufficient spatial separations to provide for the design’s physical barriers and the designations of security boundaries (e.g., vital areas (VAs),
