Introduction Complete Inspection Manual Chapter (IMC) 1245, Appendix A, Basic Inspector Certification Journal before completing any activities or courses in this journal. You may complete the General Proficiency requirements contained in Appendix B together with the Technical Proficiency requirements outlined in this journal.
This journal includes the certification requirements for security risk analysts (SRA)s that conduct target set inspection and provide target set support on Force-on-Force (FOF) inspections. To be qualified under this qualification journal (i.e., Appendix C-11), a qualification board is required, unless the individual has already completed a qualification board under IMC 1245.
Note: To be a fully qualified Regional SRA, an individual must complete one entire reactor series (i.e., the Boiling Water Reactor or Pressurized Water Reactor course series). However, the individual should only conduct target set inspections for the reactor type they are qualified.
To be a fully qualified Headquarters SRA, an individual must complete the Boiling Water Reactor course series, Pressurized Water Reactor course series, and applicable cross training courses. However, an individual qualifying as a Headquarters SRA can hold an interim SRA qualification, if they have completed one entire reactor series (i.e., PWR or BWR). Individuals that hold an interim qualification can only conduct inspections at the type of reactor they have been qualified until they complete their full SRA qualification.
Required Reactor SRA Training Courses for both headquarters and regional Inspectors:
- Power Plant Engineering (self-study)
- BWR Technology Series (R-304B, R-504B, and R-624B) or equivalent
- PWR Technology Series (R-304P, R-504P, and R-624P) or equivalent
- AP1000 Introduction to Differences Course (R-107P)
- Westinghouse AP1000 Cross Training (R-327C)
- Perspectives on Reactor Safety (R-800)
- Introduction to Physical Security Systems Self-Study (S-118S)
- Security Fundamentals Course (S-301)
- Explosives, Blast Effects, and Breaching Field Course (S-502)

Security Risk Analyst Individual Study Activity TOPIC: (ISA - Security Risk Analyst - 1) Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR)
PURPOSE: The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) requires power reactor licensees comply the physical protection requirements in 10 CFR 73. It provides the content and scope with which various licensees must comply or receive NRC approval to deviate from the requirements. For this reason, it is important that all Security Risk Analysts (SRA)s gain a general and comprehensive knowledge of applicable security requirements in the 10 CFR 73. This activity will provide the SRA with detailed knowledge of the requirements and how to apply specific security regulation requirements to target sets.

Security Risk Analyst Individual Study Activity TOPIC: (ISA - Security Risk Analyst - 2) Target Set Regulatory Guidance and Framework PURPOSE: The NRC requires that licensees establish a documented process to develop and maintain target sets. The NRC develops regulatory guides and other documents to provide guidance to licensees on one acceptable method to meeting regulations.

Security Risk Analyst Individual Study Activity TOPIC: (ISA - Security Risk Analyst - 3) Technical Specifications, Operability, and Updated Final Safety Analysis Report PURPOSE: The NRC requires that licensees operate their facilities in compliance with the NRC-approved technical specifications (TS). The TS provides the limits for facility operation with which the licensee must comply or receive NRC approval to deviate from the requirements. For this reason, it is mandatory that all SRAs possess a general knowledge of the content of the TS. This activity will provide an analyst with general knowledge of the contents of the TS (i.e., standard tech. specs vs. site specific). This level of knowledge is equivalent to the required TS specific knowledge level to successfully complete either the Boiling Water Reactor (BWR) or Pressurized Water Reactor (PWR) series of instruction. Additionally, NRC requires that licensees update and maintain their Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR) at a required frequency. The FSAR describes important structure, systems, and components at a site and can provide useful information for a target set inspection. For this reason, it is important for all SRAs to be able to locate and review a licensees updated FSAR (UFSAR) before a target set inspection.

Security Risk Analyst Individual Study Activity TOPIC: (ISA - Security Risk Analyst - 4) Target Set Flowchart and Baseline Security Significance Determination Process (BSSDP)
PURPOSE: The Significance Determination Process (SDP), as described in Appendix E of Manual Chapter 0609, aids NRC inspectors, SRAs, and staff in determining the safety significance of inspection findings. Target set findings are assessed through the Target Set Flowchart of IMC 0609, Appendix E, Part I. While this flowchart focuses on the areas applicable to target sets, including target set processes, consideration of cyber-attacks, and target set oversight, it also provides a link to the BSSDP Flowchart and cyber security SDP, when applicable. The baseline worksheets and cyber security worksheets are used to determine the risk-significance of target set findings that either resulted in a change to the protective strategy or impacted the cyber security program. The purpose of this activity is for the SRA to gain the requisite knowledge, understanding, and practical ability, such that upon completion of this activity, the SRA will be able to use the appropriate SDP to determine the safety significance of target set findings.

Security Risk Analyst Individual Study Activity TOPIC: (ISA - Security Risk Analyst - 5) Licensee Force-on-Force Exercise PURPOSE: The NRC requires that a licensee be able to adequately defend the site against the design basis threat (DBT) addressed in 10 CFR 73.1. This rule specifies the specific elements of the DBT against which each licensee is required to defend. Additionally, 10 CFR 73.55 delineates the physical protection requirements for power reactor facilities to protect against the DBT. The headquarters performance evaluation program, generally called Force-on-Force (FOF) program, evaluates execution of a licensee protective strategy through performance-based drills. During these FOF exercises, licensees must adequately defend against the loss of a target set. Furthermore, the Energy Policy Act requires development of the most challenging exercises. This activity will provide SRAs with detailed knowledge of the contents of the rule requirements, how to apply any applicable site-specific security bounding time (SBT) or reasonable assurance of protection time (RAPT), and DBT requirements in evaluating a licensees protective strategy.

Security Risk Analyst On-the-Job Activity TOPIC: (OJT - Security Risk Analyst - 3) Safety and Security Interface PURPOSE: The purpose of this activity is to familiarize SRAs with the proper method for performing the safety and security interface aspect of the target set inspection procedure. This review ensures that the plant operations staff is not adversely affected by the security measures currently in place and that site safety and security personnel are aware of what the other departments are doing. During this review, the licensees operations staff should verify they can effectively perform the actions required for safe shutdown of the facility and no critical operator timelines are affected by security measures. The review must also verify that operations staff are informed in a timely manner of a possible or current security threat to the site, so that operations staff may begin any applicable actions and safely perform these actions without being adversely affected by plant security equipment or barriers.
