procurement, construction and installation, and to support the required inspections, tests, and analyses (ITA), used to establish that the acceptance criteria are met, as required by 10 CFR 52.103(g). The NRC staff will: 1. Review the design of physical security systems intended to meet the performance and prescriptive requirements of 10 CFR Part 73, as well as conform to guidance provided in NRC Regulatory Guide (RG) 1.206, ”Combined License Applications for Nuclear Power Plants (LWR Edition).” The review addresses the interface between the standard design and the combined operating license (COL) application by examining any COL information items necessary to address the designs of physical security systems and physical security (PS)-ITAAC as site-specific or COL information, that are outside the scope of the standard design certification. 2. Identify interfaces to ensure that the review (i.e., as secondary reviewer) includes information addressed under other sections of NUREG 0800 for the design descriptions for plant structures, systems, and components that are credited to perform security functions (e.g., physical barrier, plant lighting, communications, primary and backup 13.6.2-3 Draft Revision 2 – September 2013 electrical power, uninterruptable power supply) and any early site permit design parameters that must be addressed in the design of physical security systems. Scope of the Technical Review for Physical Security 1. As stated in SECY-11-0024, “Use of Risk Insights To Enhance the Safety Focus of Small Modular Reactor Reviews,” dated February 18, 2011, the level of review for a particular SSC is derived from both the SSC’s safety importance (i.e., safety-related or nonsafety-related) and risk significance. The introduction to NUREG-0800, Part II, describes the licensing review philosophy and framework the NRC staff applies for new reactor design certification and combined license applications under 10 CFR Part 52. The introduction states that
