/
./_
I In light of the recent intrusion at the Three Mile. Island Nuclear I
Power Plant.and the apparent bomb event in New York City,-the i
Commission believes.it is an appropriate time for the NRC to
{
reevaluate and, if necessary, update the design' basis threat for vehicle intrusion and the use of vehicular bombs.
The Commission-requests that the staff prepare an analysis on the adequacy of the current regulatory requirements to protect licensed nuclear
.i facilities against threats by. vehicle intrusion.
The analysis 1
should include an assessment of the threat posed by vehicular l
bombs'and'a recommendation on what step,.if any, should be-taken f,
to address'such threat.
In the course of its work, the staff should take into account the findings and recommendations-~of the forthcoming Incident Investigation Team report on the;TMI
{
incident and other Intelligence Community input.
The NRC staff j
should prepare recommendations for changes to NRC's regulatory l
requirements, if the staff believes that such changes are 1
warranted.
t Please advise the Commission of the staff's plan for review-by-March 10, 1993.
