equipment (e.g., key card and biometric device) for each access control point. 12. A description should identify locks that are used for the protection of the facility and special nuclear material by location and function. The description should distinguish all locks identified for the protection of the facility and special nuclear material as possessing the applicable characteristics in accordance with the definition of locks provided in 10 CFR 73.2. 13. A design description of the physical barrier(s) comprising the protected area barrier (e.g., a fence constructed of No. 11 American wire gauge or a heavier wire fabric and building walls that comply with the definition of physical barriers provided in 10 CFR 73.2) should address how the barrier(s) meets the applicable requirements of 10 CFR 73.55(e). For example, physical barriers are designed and constructed to protect against the design-basis threat of radiological sabotage, provide deterrence, delay or support access control, and support the effective implementation of the protective strategy. 13.6.2-14 Revision 1 – October 2010 14. A design description should address the methodology used to secure (e.g., the lock on an access gate) and monitor (e.g., intrusion detection system or surveillance by a member of the security organization) penetrations through the protected area barrier that prevents or delays and detects the exploitation of the penetrations. The description should address those penetrations that perform an intended function within the protected area perimeter barrier itself (e.g., access gates within the protected area fence that provide access to the isolation zone and associated intrusion detection equipment). The description provided may identify the protected area perimeter intrusion detection and assessment equipment as the methodology used to monitor penetrations within the actual protected area perimeter barrier. 15. A description should address the methodology used to protect unattended
