NRC INFORMATION NOTICE 98-17: FEDERAL BUREAU OF INVESTIGATION'S (FBI)AWARENESS OF NATIONAL SECURITY ISSUES ANDRESPONSE (ANSIR) PROGRAM

Addressees

All U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) fuel cycle and power and non-power reactorlicensees.

Purpose

The NRC is issuing this information notice to advise addressees of the FBI's ANSIR Programand its availability to corporate security professionals. It is expected that recipients will reviewthis information for applicability to their physical protection programs and consider participationin the program. However, suggestions contained in this information notice are not NRCrequirements; no specific actions or written response is required.

Description of Circumstances

The FBI's ANSIR Program was designed and established to develop a nationwidecommunications network among non-U.S. government security managers, corporate securityprofessionals, law enforcement organizations, and others, on a variety of security-relatedissues. The ANSIR Coordinator in the local FBI field office is the primary point of contact for allinformation disseminated by this system. ANSIR provides unclassified information, via e-mail,to organizations that request to be placed on distribution and are approved by the FBI. Forfurther information or to request participation in the ANSIR program, contact the ANSIRCoordinator at the closest FBI Field Office (Attachment 1).Discussion:Among its many threat assessment program activities, NRC participates in the FBI terroristthreat advisory and warning system. NRC also is a recipient of the FBI's ANSIRcommunications and will review them as part of NRC's ongoing threat assessment andevaluation program. It Is expected that ANSIR communications will duplicate some of theinformation provided to NRC through the FBI terrorist threat advisory and warning system andother Intelligence Community communications.Although the ANSIR program is available to security managers, NRC licensees arereminded that NRC will continue to review all threat-related information, and NRC will advise9850/ g PR L'F A s q9_tl qv50l IN 98-17May 7, 1998 other agencies' assessments. Absent an NRC advisory, any licensee response to an ANSIRmessage to increase security above the licensee's normal level of security and commitmentswould be entirely voluntary. As in the past, licensees may contact NRC regional safeguardsstaff regarding threat-related matters at any time. Non-power reactor licensees should continuetheir contact with Headquarters staff.This information notice requires no specific actions or written response.
