Content:
for application of these acceptance criteria to the areas of review addressed by this SRP section is discussed in the following sections and paragraphs: 1. Independent of the licensing regulations and licensing approaches established in 10 CFR Part 52 (or 10 CFR Part 50), the physical protection for a nuclear power plant must meet the requirements of 10 CFR Part 73. Under Subpart B, “Standard Design Certifications,” of 10 CFR Part 52, a design certification application must include performance requirements and design information sufficient to permit the NRC to prepare acceptance and inspection requirements and the applicants to prepare procurement specifications and construction and installation of physical security systems. In accordance with the requirements of 10 CFR 52.48, “Standards for Review of Applications,” the NRC will review the applications for compliance with the standards set out in 10 CFR Part 73. 2. The scope of a DC application includes the physical security systems relied on for implementing operational requirements (i.e., administrative controls) for protecting against the DBT of radiological sabotage. The referenced sections of 10 CFR Part 52 13.6.2-22 Draft Revision 2 – September 2013 (or 10 CFR Part 50), and the associated sections of RG 1.206 (or RG 1.70 for 10 CFR Part 50), specify the scope, content, and format of the material in an application and the staff’s associated technical review. Under 10 CFR Part 52, the DC review is limited to the designs of physical security systems. The review of operational requirements and elements of physical protection programs (i.e., administrative controls and management systems) that are relied on or applied to physical security systems for establishing physical protection for nuclear material and nuclear operations of an operating reactor are reserved for a COL licensing review. 3. The acceptable level of detail for the design descriptions of physical security systems submitted with the DC
