ABSTRACT The regulations of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) require an applicant for combined preemption authority and enhanced weapons authority to submit a Weapons Safety Assessment (WSA) as part of its application. This document sets forth a process that the NRC staff finds acceptable for use by an applicant in developing a WSA. The information in this document can be used by an applicant to evaluate the potential onsite and offsite safety hazards, safety impacts, or safety risks and any onsite security risks that could arise from the deployment and potential use of enhanced weapons (e.g., machine guns) as part of a licensees protective strategy for defending against malevolent acts. Based on its assessment of these hazards, impacts, or risks, an applicant should identify preventive or mitigative measures that it intends to implement upon the deployment of enhanced weapons.

PAPERWORK REDUCTION ACT STATEMENT This NUREG provides voluntary guidance for implementing the mandatory information collections in 10 CFR Part 73 that are subject to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.). These information collections were approved by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) under control number 3150-0002. Send comments regarding these information collections to the FOIA, Library, and Information Collections Branch (T6-A10M), U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Washington, DC 20555-0001, or by email to Infocollects.Resource@nrc.gov, and to the OMB reviewer at: OMB Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs (3150-0002), Attn: Desk Officer for the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, 725 17th Street NW, Washington, DC 20503; email: oira_submission@omb.eop.gov.

PUBLIC PROTECTION NOTIFICATION The NRC may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a request for information or an information collection requirement unless the requesting document displays a currently valid Office of Management and Budget control number.

FOREWORD This NUREG describes an approach that the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) considers acceptable for use by licensees (hereafter referred to as an applicant) in developing a weapons safety assessment (WSA) when applying for combined preemption authority and enhanced weapons authority. The NRCs regulations in Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) 73.15, Authorization for use of enhanced weapons and preemption of firearms laws, require a completed WSA as a component of an application for such authority.

The purpose of a WSA is to evaluate the onsite and offsite risks associated with the deployment and potential use of a specific enhanced weapon and identify needed preventive or mitigative measures to address those risks.

Applicants may wish to, but are not required to, use this NUREG to complete a WSA. If an applicant elects to develop its own weapons safety assessment process, the NRC staff recommends an applicant review this NUREG for guidance on the types of information that should be addressed in a completed WSA.

Under 10 CFR 73.15(c), the Commission has designated the classes of facilities, radioactive material being transported, and other property that are eligible to apply for combined preemption authority and enhanced weapons authority. Only an applicant within the designated classes of licensed facilities and activities is eligible to apply for combined preemption authority and enhanced weapons authority. Under 10 CFR 73.15(f)(1)(i) and (f)(2)(iv) an applicant must also include a new weapons safety assessment for each type of proposed enhanced weapon. The NRC staff will evaluate an applicants WSA to: 1) determine if the potential risks associated with the use of a specific enhanced weapon have been properly identified and any necessary mitigative measures implemented; 2) take into account the risks and proposed mitigative measures; and 3) determine whether an applicants requested enhanced weapon in specific deployments is appropriate.

In addition to this NUREG, applicants should also refer to the NRCs regulatory requirements in 10 CFR 73.15 and supporting guidance in Regulatory Guide (RG) 5.86, Preemption Authority, Enhanced Weapons Authority, and Firearms Background Checks. This RG includes information on the application process and requirements for possessing, transferring, transporting, and using authorized enhanced weapons.

This WSA NUREG document consists of four publicly available volumes. The contents of each volume are as follows:

• Volume 1: Template InstructionsThis volume provides detailed instructions for an applicants use in completing a WSA Volume 2 template.

• Volume 2: TemplateThis volume provides a template an applicant may use for evaluating the potential onsite and offsite safety hazards, safety impacts, or safety risks that could arise from the use of specific enhanced weapons.

• Volume 3: Review CriteriaThis volume describes the criteria that the NRC staff will use in evaluating a WSA developed using the Volume 2 template process in an application for combined preemption authority and enhanced weapons authority.

• Volume 4: Sample TemplateThis volume provides an example of a completed WSA using the Volume 2 template process at a hypothetical power reactor site. Consequently, this sample template is intended only as a tool and visual aid to an applicant.

GLOSSARY OF TERMS Area Danger Ring (ADR) (not to be confused with surface danger zones)

Initial (IADR)

An encompassed area that represents the worst-case scenario of a fired round of ammunitions potential range (i.e., maximum range without considering any physical limitations on the flight of a round).

Mitigated (MADR)

An encompassed area that represents a fired round of ammunitions potential range (i.e., maximum range considering any physical limitations on the flight of a round) with mitigative measures in place to reduce the potential range or effect of the round.

Blowback A system in which automatic or semiautomatic firearms operate through the energy created by combustion in the chamber and bore acting directly on the bolt face through the cartridge.

Other operating systems are recoil operation, gas-actuated, Gatling, and chain.

Blowback System A system in which there is no positive lock between the bolt and the barrel. The mass of the bolt and force of its recoil spring act to keep the breech closed. The expanding gases from the fired round overcome this inertia and blow back the breech. The breech must be kept closed until the round has left the barrel and gas pressures have subsided.

Breech Block The block in breech-loading firearms that closes the rear of the barrel against the force of the charge and prevents gases from escaping.

Brinell Hardness (HB)

The hardness of a metal or alloy measured by hydraulically pressing a hard ball under a standard load into the specimen. Brinell hardness may also be designated as HBW, BN, or BHN.

Cannelure (1) Ring-like groove in the jacket of a bullet, which provides a means of securely crimping the cartridge case to the bullet, analogous to the crimping groove in artillery ammunition.

(2) Ring-like groove for locking the jacket of an armor piercing bullet to the core. (3) Ring-like groove in the rotating band of a gun projectile to lessen the resistance offered to the gun rifling. (4) Ring-like groove around the base of a cartridge case where the extractor takes hold.

(5) Ring-like groove cut into the outside surface of a water-cooled machine gun barrel into which packing is placed to prevent the escape of water from the breech end of the water jacket.

Collaborative Research into Small Arms Technology (CRISAT)

The NATO standard in the manufacture of military equipment. The CRISAT Target is defined as a 1.6-millimeter titanium plate (UK IMI Ti 318) supplementing 20 layers of Kevlar (UK/SC/4468) as defined in STANAG Agreement 4512. Weapons are measured against this standard in respect to their ability to penetrate, and protective equipment is manufactured to adhere to it.

xix

Designated Firing Position A designated firing position predetermined by the security operating procedures. These positions can be redeployable based on the security strategy.

Enhanced Weapons As defined in 10 CFR 73.2(b),1 enhanced weapons are short-barreled shotguns, short-barreled rifles, and machine guns. These terms have the same meaning as defined in ATF regulations under 27 CFR 478.11.2 Enhanced weapons do not include destructive devices as defined in 18 U.S.C. § 921(a)(4).3 Fixed Firing Position A firing position where the weapon is fired only from a fixed mount; may include multiple fixed positions from which the weapon can be moved to another fixed mount.

Foot-Pound A unit of work equal to the work done by a force of 1 pound acting through a distance of 1 foot in the direction of the force.

Frangible Capable of being broken; breakable. Frangible, or soft, rounds are designed to break apart when they hit walls or other hard surfaces to prevent ricochets during close-quarters combat.

Also known as the Advanced Energy Transfer (AET) round.

Handgun Any firearm including a pistol or revolver designed to be fired by the use of a single hand. The term also includes any combination of parts from which a handgun can be assembled. See 18 U.S.C. § 921(a)(29).

Joule A unit of work or energy equal to the work done by a force of 1 newton acting through a distance of 1 meter.

Pintle A usually upright pivot pin on which another part turns. The pin on which a gun carriage revolves.

Rolled Homogeneous Armor (RHA)

Armor having uniform composition and heat treatment throughout. RHA is frequently characterized as hard or soft. Homogeneous hard armor typically has a Brinell hardness in excess of 400 and is unmachinable, except with special tools. Homogeneous soft armor typically has a Brinell hardness of 350 or less and is machinable. RHA is sometimes referred to as homogeneous rolled armor.

Sabot (1) A lightweight carrier in which a projectile of a smaller caliber is centered so as to permit firing the projectile within a larger caliber weapon. The carrier fills the bore of the weapon from 1 10 CFR 73.2, Definitions.

2 27 CFR 478.11, Meaning of terms.

3 Title 18 of the U.S. Code, Crimes and Criminal Procedure; Chapter 44, Firearms; § 921, Definitions.

xx

which the projectile is fired; it is normally discarded a short distance from the muzzle. (2) A thrust-transmitting carrier that positions a missile in a gun barrel or launching tube and that prevents the escape of gas ahead of the missile. (3.) Aluminum body of a high-velocity, armor-piercing tracer projectile having a tungsten carbide core; in this case, the core may be considered as the subcaliber projectile.

Stray Round Misdirected or accidental firing and ricochets.

The weapon will be used in a remotely operated weapon system (ROWS) from fixed position/s. (If checked, applicant must describe system in Item 31.)

The weapon will be fired from fixed position(s) (i.e., attached to pre-positioned mount or mounts).

The weapon will be used from a designated firing point/s (e.g., guard towers, roof tops, etc.).

The weapon will be used while patrolling the property (e.g., foot patrols, vehicle patrols, etc.).

The weapon will be used inside facility buildings (e.g., interior fighting position, checkpoints, patrols, etc.).

The weapon will be used only within a small defined area of the property.

The weapon will be used in many situations and areas of the property.

29. Additional description of weapon deployment:

(Describe how and where this weapon will be used to implement the licensees protective strategy. Include fixed positions or how the weapon will be carried, either by individuals or roving patrol (i.e., locked in a rack or loaded with unchambered round, etc.). Also note if the weapon will be replacing a different caliber weapon.)

30. Range Cards. Create a Standard Range Card for any enhanced weapon that is being used from a fixed position or designated firing position and attach the card to the end of the WSA. A Standard Range Card is not required for mobile positions but may be considered as appropriate. (See WSA Reference Information volume for guidance; note that all manuals change periodically, and a Web search should be conducted to ensure that the latest version of a given manual is being used.)

31. ROWS Discussion: If a remotely operated weapons system will be combined with an enhanced weapon, then provide the following information:

a. Describe how many ROWS will be in use at the facility.

b. Describe where these ROWS will be placed.

c. Describe where the ROWS will be controlled from (location).

d. Describe how many ROWs each operator will control.

An applicant is responsible for submitting all maps, facility diagrams, Standard Range Cards, and other materials used to determine encroachments, buffer zones, and mitigating measures, risk items, likelihoods, and consequences.

33. Provide any pertinent map comments or explanations:

4-6 INITIAL AREA DANGER RING Create the initial area danger ring (IADR), following the instructions in Volume 1.

Depending on weapons desired, ammunition used, deployment, and site geometry, an IADR may be composed of multiple individual rings rather than a single continuous ring. Refer to Volume 4, Appendix A, for examples of constructing IADRs.

Describe any pertinent information pertaining to property buffer or encroachment areas (i.e., describe the usage of any property owned by Federal, State, or local governments such as parks, recreation, military purposes). Describe natural barriers such as mountains, sloping terrain, manmade earthen berms, etc. An applicant should add to, or update, Item 35 as necessary while working through Items 36-40, as map comments may arise throughout the process of completing this template.

4-4 SECURITY BANNER HERE

SECURITY BANNER HERE 4-8 RISK IDENTIFICATION, EVALUATION, AND MITIGATION Risk Items Identify all risk items within the IADR. Assign each risk item a level of likelihood and consequence. Empty spaces are left in the tables for the addition of other risk items that are not already identified. Note: Items can be mitigated as a group if they are in close proximity to each other and have similar likelihood and consequence.

The NRC staff recommends as a good practice that an applicants initial risk identification involve multiple knowledgeable staff members from various elements of an applicants organization.

If the WSA relies on certain measures to mitigate risk items, then the NRCs approval of the application may be conditioned upon implemtation of these measures. The licensee will commit to these mitigation measures in their physical security plan. and These commitments will be subject to inspection by the NRC.

36. Hazardous (Reactivity, Flammability, and Health) Risks in the ADR For evaluating risk items associated with chemicals and the potential release of chemical gases, fire, or explosions, first consider chemicals and fuels stored at the facility, but also consider that storage tanks 500-1,500 meters away can easily be punctured by some of the ammunitions listed in Section 2 of the WSA Reference Information volume. Consult a facility chemist or chemical engineer on the assessment of these chemicals. An applicant is responsible for determining the content of the table input and analyzing the risks.

4-9 MITIGATED AREA DANGER RING Refer to Volume 1 for instructions on creating a map of the mitigated area danger ring (MADR). After the MADR map has been created, review the risk items in Items 36-40, and change the value in the MADR column to No for each risk item no longer in the MADR footprint.

Depending on the weapons desired, deployment, limitations on round travel, and site geometry, the MADR may be composed of multiple individual rings rather than a single continuous ring. Refer to Volume 4, Appendix A, for information and examples of constructing an MADR.

NOTE: Items 41-43 should be answered for the MADR footprint or for the IADR footprint if there are no mitigating factors to reduce the IADR.

41. What is the estimated population density within the MADR (people/square mile)?

42. Is the population evenly distributed within the MADR?

43. If No, describe the population distribution. (Example 1, since the facility has a lake on the eastern side, most of the population is on the northern, southern, and western sides of the facility. Example 2, a continuously staffed fire station is located west of the facility.)

44. Does an applicant have a firing range on the facility property.

45. If yes, will training for this weapon be on the facilitys range?

45a. Has the local Federal Aviation Administration office been contacted to determine if special use airspace needs to be established in the vicinity of the training range when enhanced weapons are in use?

45b. Summarize the results of discussions with the Federal Aviation Administration and include information for point of contact (i.e., name and telephone numbers).

46. Who uses the onsite firing range?

47. If the existing range will not support training for this weapon, where will training take place?

48. What reference materials were used for modifying the existing training and weapon maintenance plans (e.g., military standards, National Rifle Association documents).

49. RESERVED 4-11 RISK ACCEPTABILITY

50. An applicant has reviewed the risks associated with using this weapon and the selected ammunition(s). An applicant finds the risks to be for this facility or transportation activity.

If an applicant finds the risks associated with using this weapon system at the facility unacceptable, the NRC may not authorize the requested enhanced weapon system. Volume 1 provides additional guidance.

NUREG-2264 Volume 2 Weapons Safety Assessment March 2023 Template Chapters 3 and 4 P. Brochman, H. Stone, D. Davis Technical Division of Physical and Cyber Security Policy Office of Nuclear Security and Incident Response U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Washington, DC 20555-0001 Division of Physical and Cyber Security Policy Office of Nuclear Security and Incident Response U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Washington, DC 20555-0001 P. Brochman The regulations of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) require an applicant for combined preemption authority and enhanced weapons authority to submit a Weapons Safety Assessment (WSA) as part of its application. This document sets forth a process that the NRC staff finds acceptable for use by an applicant in developing a WSA. The information in this document can be used by an applicant to evaluate the potential onsite and offsite safety hazards, safety impacts, or safety risks and any onsite security risks that could arise from the deployment and potential use of enhanced weapons (e.g., machine guns) as part of a licensees protective strategy for defending against malevolent acts. Based on its assessment of these hazards, impacts, or risks, an applicant should identify preventive or mitigative measures that it intends to implement upon the deployment of enhanced weapons.
