Site-specific information should be reviewed and evaluated in accordance with the requirements of 10 CFR 73.56. Those sites that fall under an existing NRC-approved AA program would be considered acceptable if the full operational program is applied to the applicable personnel as described in 10 CFR 73.56. These sites would still need to provide a description of their intent to use the operating reactor plant AA program at the construction site(s) and whether a change is made to operational security plan that is not consistent with industry standards of acceptance. This description shall meet the requirements of 10 CFR 52.79(a)(44). The AA program will remain in force until the operating phase security plan provisions approved by the NRC are implemented by the new commercial power reactor licensee. These measures may apply to the following entities: • COL applicants (under 10 CFR Part 52) who have been issued a LWA under 10 CFR 50.10(e); • COL holders; • Construction permit applicants (under 10 CFR Part 50) who have been issued a LWA under 10 CFR 50.10(e); and • Construction permit holders. Licensee or applicants may voluntarily implement the AAprogram criteria no later than the commencement of construction activities of any security-related or safety-related SSCs. “Security-related SSCs” are those SSCs that licensee or applicants will rely on
