U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission ND-20-1405 Enclosure Page 2 of 3 ITAAC Statement Design Commitment

6. An access control system with numbered picture badges Is installed for use by individuals who are authorized access to protected areas and vital areas without escort.

Inspections/Tests/Analvses A test of the access control system with numbered picture badges will be performed.

Acceptance Criteria The access authorization system with numbered picture badges can identify and authorize protected area and vital area access only to those personnel with unescorted access authorization.

ITAAC Determination Basis A test of the access control system with numbered picture badges was performed to confirm that the system can identify and authorize protected area and vital area access only to those personnel with unescorted access authorization, and satisfy the applicable access control requirements of the Vogtle Electric Generating Plant(VEGP) Unit 3 and Unit 4 Physical Security Plan associated with 10 CFR Part 73.55(g)(6)(ii). The VEGP Unit 3 Plant Security System ITAACs only cover the Unit 3 plant security system design commitment scope.

A test of the access authorization system was performed using numbered picture test badges prepared both with and without unescorted access authorization to the protected area and vital areas. The test badges and associated biometric data were prepared and controlled per the applicable station procedures. Test badges and associated biometric data were used to attempt access to the protected area, and test badges were used to attempt access to a vital area. The test confirmed the access authorization system will only allow access to the protected area and vital area for which the test badges are authorized. Similarly, the test confirmed the access authorization system will not allow access for test badges that do not have authorization. The testing confirmed the test badge access successes and failures are recorded by the access authorization system. The testing also confirmed the Central and Secondary Alarm Stations received alarms following multiple unauthorized test badge access attempts and provided the protected or vital area test location causing the alarm. The test procedure included a record of protected and vital area test results, as well as confirmation that the access authorization system appropriately annunciated and accurately recorded test results.

The numbered picture badge access control system test results are documented in SV3-SES-ITR-800666 (Reference 1) and confirm that the access authorization system with numbered picture badges can identify and authorize protected area and vital area access only to those personnel with unescorted access authorization to these areas.

Reference 1 is available for NRC inspection as part of the Unit 3 C.2.6.09.06 ITAAC Completion Package (Reference 2).
