Revision 2 – October 2016 protected area (PA), isolation zones, and owner control area (OCA)). The proposed site contains sufficient spatial separations or provides for sufficient distances to allow for design, installation, and implementation of engineered and administrative controls (i.e., security measures) for a physical protection system (i.e., detection, assessment, communications, and security response for interdiction and neutralization) to protect against threats. (b) Where spatial separation is limited because of a natural topography or existing or planned manmade structures for a proposed site, the specific methods and approaches (e.g., engineered or administrative controls) that may be applied are described to demonstrate that security plans and measures meeting regulatory requirements for security boundaries, physical barriers, and access controls can be developed. (c) Distances from a reactor to the boundary of the PA or OCA provide sufficient spatial separations necessary to protect the nuclear island, structures, systems, and components, and plant operations against postulated consequences of vehicle bomb threats. Appropriate PPE is identified for bounding the design and installation of land-based or waterborne vehicle barrier systems to establish safe standoff distances. In addition, based on an the assumption that spatial distances may be limited, the information includes how engineering approaches and methods (e.g., hardening structures, installation of blast walls or barriers buried underground) may be applied to protect structures, systems, and components relied on for nuclear safety against postulated land-based and/or waterborne vehicle bombs. (d) Highways, railroads, and waterways that traverse the exclusion area, the OCA, or the PA are sufficient distances from planned location(s) of the nuclear power reactor(s), structures, systems, or components (SSCs), and plant operations on the proposed site such that routine use of these routes or
