DISCLAIMER
This information is furnished by the United States Government and is accepted and used by the
recipient with the express understanding that the United States Government makes no

FORWARD
Submission of a weapons safety assessment (WSA) is one component of an application by a
licensee or certificate holder (hereafter referred to as “applicant”) to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory
Commission (NRC) for combined enhanced weapons authority and preemption authority. Refer
to 10 CFR 73.181 and DG-50202 for complete details on the application process. Applicants for
stand-alone preemption authority are not required to complete a WSA.
Enhanced weapons, as defined in 10 CFR 73.23, means any short-barreled shotgun, shortbarreled rifle, or machine gun as defined in 27 CFR 478.114. Enhanced weapons do not include
destructive devices as defined at 18 U.S.C. § 921(a)(4)5.
This report presents a WSA methodology acceptable to the NRC for an application for
combined enhanced weapons authority and preemption authority; however, it is not exclusive.
Other methodologies based on sound safety, scientific, and engineering principles are also
acceptable.
This report is presented in five volumes. The content of each volume is described below.
•

Volume 1: Template Instructions - This volume provides detailed instructions for
completing the WSA template presented in Volume 2: Template. Section numbering of
the explanations and instructions in this volume correspond to the section numbering of
the template to facilitate ease of navigation between the two volumes.

•

Volume 2: Template – This volume provides a template for information to be included in
the WSA for submittal to NRC.

Volume 3: Review Criteria – This volume describes the criteria that NRC will use in
evaluation of a submitted WSA.

•

Volume 4: Reference Documents – This volume is a collection of digital files that can be
used by the applicant for additional information. The information pertains to weapons,
weapons maintenance, training, and range design and range safety.

•

Volume 5: Sample Template – This volume provides an example of a completed WSA
template for a fictitious site. This is a clarification tool and visual aid to the applicant.

Completion of the template should be accomplished by a team composed of members from
various elements of the applicant’s organization. Examples of elements outside of security and
what they can contribute are as follows:
•

Facility safety office personnel can provide information on chemicals and other
hazardous items on the site.

•

Facility emergency preparedness office personnel can provide information on the
surrounding community.

•

Facility engineering office personnel can provide drawings and maps as well as
construction details for structures containing risk items.

The applicant’s team should include at least one subject matter expert familiar with automatic
and large caliber firearm usage to assist with the selection, risk evaluation, documentation,
planning, training, and possible training range modifications for use of the enhanced weapons.
The information in this report has been determined to be Official Use Only – Security-Related
Information and is to be withheld from public disclosure under 10 CFR 2.3906.
However, once site specific information has been placed in the template contained in Volume 2,
the applicant should mark, label, control, store, and transmit the document as safeguards
information or classified information, as appropriate. The applicant should determine, using
applicable guidance, the appropriate sensitivity level of the information and protect it
accordingly.

2-8: RISK IDENTIFICATION, EVALUATION AND MITIGATION
Risk Items
Identify all risk items within the initial ADR. Assign each at Risk Item a level of likelihood and
consequence. There are empty spaces left in the tables to add 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”.
It is recommended that initial risk identification involve several people from various elements
of the applicant’s organization.

38. Chemical and Petroleum/Fuel Risks in the initial ADR
For evaluating risk items associated with chemicals and the potential release of chemical
gases, fire or explosions; consider chemicals and fuels stored at the facility first, but also
consider that storage tanks 500 – 1500 meters away can easily be punctured by some of the
ammunitions listed in Appendix B, Volume 4. The Facility Chemist/Engineer should be
consulted on the selection of said chemicals. The applicant is responsible for determining the
content of the table input and analyzing their risks.

39. Key Facilities/areas Inside the PA
For evaluating Risk Items associated with key facilities and areas inside the protected area
(PA), consider Risk Items that are not always obvious. For example, a diesel generator that if
destroyed would not be hazardous, but it is a vital backup power source.
Note: Applicants should include those systems, structures, components and operator actions
that if unable to perform their required function, would lead to significant core damage or
radiological sabotage of spent fuel. This section identifies key facilities or areas within the
sectors of fire. All facilities should be identified and risks associated with each as pertaining to
“Public Health and Safety” or under “Business Category” with consideration to how it affects
future plant operations. Refer to the instructions in Volume 1 for additional information.
(Do not select Spent Fuel Rods, Dry Storage) if it is an independent fuel storage installation
(ISFSI) outside of the PA.

41. Key Facilities/areas Outside the Property Boundaries
For evaluating risk items associated with key facilities outside the property boundaries, refer
often to the IADR created in 2-6 of the Volume 1 Template Instructions. Create lists of
structures, companies, shopping areas and facilities within the ring, then discuss how a stray
round may affect that item and if there are other barriers between it and the facility that would
lessen the chance of a stray round reaching it. This section identifies key facilities or areas
within the sectors of fire. All facilities should be identified and risks associated with each as
pertaining to “Public Health and Safety” or under “Business Category” with consideration to
how it affects future plant operations. Refer to the instructions in Volume 1 for additional
information. .

For evaluating risk items associated with critical asset items outside the property

Create lists of any other risk items that have not been covered in the analysis from previous
sections. List these items within the ring, then discuss how a stray round may affect that
item and if there are other barriers between it and the facility that would lessen the chance
of a stray round reaching it. This section identifies critical assets within the sectors of fire.

2-9: MADR MAP
Refer to Volume 1 for instructions on creating a MADR map. After the MADR map has been
created, the applicant should review the Risk Items in item numbers 38-42 and change the
value in the “MADR” column to “No” for each risk no longer in the mitigated ADR footprint.
The applicant, upon signing and submitting the application agrees and is committed to any
identified mitigation measures. These measures will be inspected by the NRC.
NOTE: Items 43-45 should be answered for the MADR footprint or for the initial ADR footprint
should there be no mitigating factors to reduce the ADR.
43. What is the estimated population density within the MADR (people/sq. mile)?
44. Is the population evenly distributed within the MADR?
45. If NO, describe population distribution. (For example, since the facility has a lake on the
eastern side, most of the population is on the North, South and Western sides of the facility.)

46. The applicant has a firing range on the facility property.
47. If yes, will training for this weapon be on the facility’s range?
47a. Has the local Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) office been contacted to
determine if special use airspace (SUA) needs to be established in the vicinity of
the training range when enhanced weapons are in use?
47b. Summarize the results of discussions with FAA and include information for
point of contact (i.e., name and telephone numbers)
48. Who uses the on-site firing range?
49. If the existing range will not support training for this weapon, or if there is no range, have
arrangements been made to train with this weapon at another location?
50. What reference materials were used for modifying the existing training and weapon
maintenance plans? (i.e., Military Standards, NRA documents, etc.)
51. If routine weapon maintenance and/or minor repair will not be done on site, describe
needed inventory levels to continue normal operations and repair/maintenance shipping
considerations.
