revision-number:
applicable-sections:
comments: Appendix E to Part 50,Section IV.A.7 states:
By June 23, 2014, identification of, and a description of the assistance expected from, appropriate State, local, and Federal agencies with responsibilities for coping with emergencies, including hostile action at the site.
2 10CFR Part 73.55(k)(9), Physical Protection of Plants and Materials Section, Response Requirements, states:
Law enforcement liaison. To the extent practicable, licensees shall document and maintain current agreements with applicable law enforcement agencies to include estimated response times and capabilities.
The identification of and the description of assistance provided by applicable law enforcement agencies for a hostile action at the site is already documented and maintained by security in accordance with 10 CFR 73.55(k)(9). Therefore, it should not be required to have redundant documentation in another licensee program.
When implementing Appendix E to Part 50,Section IV.A.7 is it acceptable to acknowledge that 73(k)(9) addresses the identification of and the description of assistance provided by applicable law enforcement agencies for the on-site response to a hostile action?
proposed-solution: When implementing Appendix E to Part 50,Section IV.A.7 it is not necessary to separately identify and describe assistances provided by applicable law enforcement agencies for the on-site response to a hostile action. Licenses address this requirement by following the provisions of 73.55(k)(9).
