Revision 2 – October 2016 security plans and measures. Any other facilities or activities that, because of the products manufactured, stored, or transported may warrant consideration with respect to possible adverse effects for safety of nuclear reactor and plant operations, also are considered for security. Information demonstrates that nearby hazards do not present impediments to developing security plans and measures. Similar to onsite hazards, the applicant may demonstrate that spatial separation provides protection of the nuclear power plant and operations from potential nearby offsite hazards and associated consequences or demonstrate that engineered structures or systems can be designed, specified, constructed, or installed—and conduct of operations can be planned—to provide and maintain available and reliable the required security postures under anticipated offsite hazardous conditions. 3. Regional Climatology and Local Meteorology Regional Climatology (general climate, seasonal and annual severe weather, and meteorological conditions—high and low pressure systems, wind direction and speeds, precipitation, snow and ice load, hurricanes, tornadoes, waterspouts, wind, thunderstorms, lighting, hail, snow, freezing rain, ice storm, dust (sand) storm, etc.)— analyzed are considered in determining if such conditions present impediments to the design of engineered and administrative controls for a physical protection system. (a) Information includes identification and consideration of acute and prolonged exposure to severe weather and resulting environmental conditions (e.g., extreme low or high temperatures, high wind, heavy snow and icing, dense fog, corrosive salt environment, lighting strikes, sand and dust particles, and other weather-caused and environmental conditions that may challenge the designs engineered and administrative controls for operations) to determine if security plans and measures can be developed. Information demonstrates that
