'i!

zone'is provided along both sides of the barrier, except at I,

i the plant entry and security building to permit observation I

of activities at.the perimeter.. Isolation zones are kept clear of foliage, material., and structures, except for i tems Listed in the Accendix.

The staff has reviewed those locations and determined that I

the s e c u ri t y in e a s u'r e s 11 n p l.a c e are satisfactory and continue

4.0 Identification of Vital Areas

,The Appendix *contains a discussion of the applica1t's vital area

p r o g r a'm and identifies those areas and items of equipment determined to be vital for protection parpcses.

Vital equipment

i s located.Within vital areas which are located within the 3

protected, area and which' require passage through at least two

~

barri.ers, as defined in 10 CFR 73.2(f)(1) and (2), to gain accesstothevital, equi $ ment.

Vital area barriers are 1

_ _, separated from the protected area barrier.

~

j' The control room and central alarm station are provided with j

bullet-resistant walls, doors, ceilings and floors.

Based on

i

.)I these findi.ngs'and the. analysis set f or.;,h4 in.. paragraph Q f

  • s.

the Appe'ndix, the' staff has concluded that the applicant's m-program"for identification'a'nd protectio'n of vital equipment-i f

satisfies the regulatory intent.

However, this program is subject to on' site validation by the staff in the future,'and to su6sedue'nt changes if found to be necessary.

5.0 Access Reouirements i

In accordance with 10 CFR 73.55(d) aLL' points,.pf personnel and

The 1

individual responsible for controlling the final point of' access i nto the protected area is Located in a bullet-resistant structure.

As p a r.t of the access control program, vehicles i

I (except under emergenc'y conditions), personnel, packages, and materials entering the protected area are searched for

Licensee designated vehicles are limited to on-site' station fun'ctions and' remain in the protected area except for operational maintenance, repair, security and emergency purposes. ' Positive control over the vehicles is maintained.by personnel authorized to use the vehicles or by the escort' personnel.

The central al. ara station is located

~

such that the interior of the station is'^not visible from'

In addition, y

j the central station is constructed so that walls, floors, s..

ceilings, doors, and windows are bullet resistant.

The alarm stations are located and designed in such a manner

.z.--

so a single act cannot interdict the ca'pability of calling for assistance or responding to alarms.

The central alarm station contains no other functions or duties that would j

interfere with-its alarm response function.

has established a program for the testing and-maintenance of I

alL intrusion alarms, emergency alarms, communication equipment, i

physical barriers and other security related devices and I

equipment.

Equipment or devices that do not meet the design I

i performance criteria or have failed to otheruise operate will be compe'nsated for by appr;priate compensatory measures as defined'in the "Vogtle Electric Generating Plant Units 1 and 2 Physical Security Plan and Contingency Plan" and in site

10.0 Employee Screening Procram I

ll In meeting the requirements of 10 CFR'73'.55(a) to protect

<.l against the design basis threat as stated in 10 CFR 73.1 l ' *.

( a ) (1 ) (~i i ), the Georgia Power Company has provided an 1

l employee screening program.

Personnel who successfulLy k

complete the employe'e screening program or its equivalent I

-aay b,e-granted unes co rted a c ce s s to.p rot e ct ed and vital areas at the Vogtle Plant site.

AlL other personnel requiring access to'the site are escorted by persons author.ized and trained for escort duties a nd w h o -h gVe tucc.essfully w s.

j completed the employee screening programg_,The employee screeni$g program is based upon accepted industry standar8s

-r and includes.a.backgrobnd investigation, a psychological evaluation, and a continuing observation program. In addition, the $pplic nt may recognize the screening program of other nuclear utilities or contractors based upon a comparability re, view conducted by the Georgia Power Companyr The plan i

also provides for a." grandfather clause" exclusion which l,l!

allows recognition of a certain period of trustworthy I

service'with the utility or contractor, as being equivalent 4

y to the.overa.L.L employee screening pr'ogram. The staff has l 4 reviewe'd'the applica'nt's screening program against the accepted
