. u ,, , y, TEEUs R. E. Engelken Director, 30 V DIVERSIM RISK ANALYSIS - EXION NUCLEAR CMPANT We agree that a Diversion Risk Analysis should be made for each asjor taal facility to determine the risk potential and the type of response to threats, particularly for risks relating to threats of explosion.
Licensees may be estegorised La order of diminishing risk potential and vulnerability, with only those routinaly possessing significant I quantities of strategic materials in suitable form for fabrication I of a soclear device fneluded in the top category.
Current Regulatory requirements for bimonthly physical inventories and increased physical protection of strategic materials minimism the possibility of diversion of a quantity of such material in sufficient quantity and of a suitable form to permit fabrication of viable device within the two month period. In addition, a number of licensees l possessing the foregoing asterials perform at least an ites accounting
. monthly.
i In event of a threat involving a possible nuclear explosiva device, relatively few licensees need be requested to verify an inventory as an initial response. The request and response could be by predetermined codes. 99,t;,.
In regard to radiological threats, current Reg 21 story requirensets for materials and plant protection are not designed to prevent diversion of a quantity of plutonipes sufficient to be useful as a radiological hasard. In addition, any number of basardous radioactive by prodects such as cobalt 60, are readily available and vulnerable to theft to support a radiological threat.
,@ W[a have selected Exxon Nuclear Company for the prototype Diversion Risk l o n. Analysis because they routinely process plutonium in the manufacture o of mixed oxide reactor fuel. Exxon is permitted by license to possess
,Q 0, not more than 100 kilograms plutonium at any ties and not more than ,
y 10 kilograms may be in unsealed or unencapsulated form. Material not l 8<t o in process, in low-level waste or assembled fuel elements is stored
$8@ in a locked vault equipped with active intrusion detectors. .g.g

- 1. Security Plan hhi?
Implementation of the plan's physical and mA=infatrative features in regard to prevention of diversion of SnDi are considered highly effective within the limitations of 10 CFR 73 requirements.
No partirutar weaknesses have been W reified.
- 2. Suitability of Haterial
- a. Explosive threat Material is unsuitable for fashioning into an amplosive device in the form in which the material is routinely used. The Puo2 , prior to combination with the UO must be converted to ;
the estal. After combination with UO.,2a complex cha=femi processing would be required to separtes the Fu followed by a y,;;
difficult conversion to meta.1. Pu contained in Ice-level wastes would be extremely difficult to separate and process to a suitable form in sufficient quantity to present a threat.
~ b. Radiological threat
-Puo2 in any quantity in the dispensable forms would present a significant radiological threat. Usefulness of the material *4 as a radiological hazard would diminf eh af tar combining with UO2 and further diminfah in the form of low-level waste and assembled fuel bundias.

If MUF greater than allowed limit but less than 1.5 LEtWF, py' "
advise licenses to re-inventory and investigate to determine cause. Diapatch RO inspector if seems advisable.
- b. Licensee Response Make inmediata pra14minan investigation to determina possible cause. If excessive HUF not corrected as a result of pre-liminary investigation, report to AEC Regional Office. Follow " fi with the inventory, review of docuneatation and measurements, and shutdown of all material movements and processing. Report results of investigation to AEC in writing vithin 30 days.

- m. Regional Response. .
r.
Analyse the basia and risk potential. Contact individual Licensees depending on type, gnantity, and form of material *vt~-
involved in the threat, if known, and request inventory check -
of deemed necessary. If extortion is based on a nuclear bomb threat it is not credible that the material may have been diverted from a facility having only material in oxide forms and have been processed to a suitable form within a two month inventory period. Any M- e routinely in possession of 3 stratagic material in a suitable matal form should be requested to make a thorough inventory check of such material immediately.
Materials as scrap, vaste and product where the Stei has been rendered to a form which must be subjected to a 2magthy and l difficult processing operation for recovery in a suitable form I need not be included if all accounted for within the preceding two mont.h period.
If extortion is based on a radiological threat, all 14e=naees possessing plutonium in any form should be requested to inventory all such material in any form. Licensee's possessing only uranh= in any form need not be contacted unless the threat specifically refers to uranium, which would be unlikely.
- b. Licensee Responsa
. j Since the reaction to a general extortion threat would usually be initiated by the AEC through Regional Offices, response should be in accordance with AEC instructions.
