*Approximately hald of RTRs (i.e. 16) licensees have control of reactor facilities with power levels of 1 MW or greater and are assumed to have security plans containing vital areas and are
costed above. An additional 12 RTRs have power levels between 1 KW and 1 MW and are assumed to have security plans, but no vital areas other than storage areas. For these RTRs,
the amount of time to perform this requirement is expected to be insignificant. The remaining 5 licensees control reactor facilities with power levels of 1 KW or less and are assumed not to
have security plans and would not incur any related costs.
