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 licensee’s 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.
Volume 2 of the WSA document consists of Chapter 3, “Applicant Information,” and Chapter 4, “Fillable Template.”
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 NRC’s 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 applicant’s 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 applicant’s requested enhanced weapon in specific deployments is appropriate.
In addition to this NUREG, applicants should also refer to the NRC’s 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 Instructions—This volume provides detailed instructions for an applicant’s use in completing a WSA Volume 2 template.
Volume 2: Template—This 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 Criteria—This 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 Template— This 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.
Electronic copies of this NUREG, previous versions of this NUREG, and other recently issued NUREGs are also available through the NRC’s public Web site in the NRC Library at https://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/doc-collections/, under Document Collections, in NUREG‑Series Publications.

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 ammunition’s 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 ammunition’s 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.
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 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.

Maps and other documents can be referred to or sent as electronic or paper attachments. 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. |
|

35. 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. |
|
|
4-8: 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 applicant’s initial risk identification involve multiple knowledgeable staff members from various elements of an applicant’s organization. |
If the WSA relies on certain measures to mitigate risk items, then the NRC’s 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. |
Please scroll to the next table. Do not “Tab.”
36. Justify the likelihood and consequence levels for each risk item in the areas provided below. Select the type of mitigation for each risk item. Describe in detail the single or multiple mitigation steps taken to alleviate or lower the risk factor. The “Other Discussion” field can be used for any additional information supporting risk mitigation. |

37. 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 is a vital backup power source). |
Note: An applicant should include those systems, structures, components, and operator actions that, if unable to perform their required function, could lead to an accidental criticality, dispersal of special nuclear material, significant core damage, radiological sabotage, or dispersal of spent nuclear fuel (SNF). This section identifies key facilities or areas within the sectors of fire. All facilities should be identified, and risks associated with each should be categorized as pertaining to “Public Health and Safety” or “Business,” with consideration of how a risk item affects future plant operations. Refer to the instructions in Volume 1 for additional information. |
Please scroll to the next table. Do not “Tab.”
37. Justify the likelihood and consequence levels for each risk item in the areas provided below. Select the Type of Mitigation for each risk item. Describe in detail the single or multiple mitigation steps taken to alleviate or lower the risk factor. Use the “Other Discussion” field for any additional information supporting risk mitigation. |

39. Key Facilities/Areas Outside the Property Boundaries |
For evaluating risk items associated with key facilities outside an applicant’s property boundaries, refer often to the IADR created in Section 2.6 of Volume 1, “Template Instructions.” An applicant should create lists of structures, companies, shopping areas, and facilities within the IADR, and then discuss how a stray round may affect that item and if there are other barriers that would lessen the chance of a stray round reaching the item. This section identifies key facilities or areas within the sectors of fire. All facilities should be identified, and the risks associated with each should be categorized as pertaining to “Public Health and Safety” or “Business,” with consideration of how the risk item affects future plant operations. Refer to the instructions in Volume 1 for additional information. |

40. Critical Asset Items Outside the Property Boundaries (Refer to ADR Assessment) |
For evaluating risk items associated with critical asset items outside the property boundaries, refer often to the IADR created in Section 2.6 of Volume 1, “Template Instructions.” An applicant should 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 that would lessen the chance of a stray round reaching the item. This section identifies critical assets within the sectors of fire. All critical assets should be identified, and risks associated with each categorized as pertaining to “Public Health and Safety” or “Business,” with consideration of how the risk item affects future plant operations. Refer to the instructions in Volume 1 for additional information. |

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 licensee’s 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. Volume 2 of the
WSA document consists of Chapter 3, “Applicant Information,”
and Chapter 4, “Fillable Template.”
