7. REQUIREMENTS.
a. General. The Department's diverse safeguards and security
interests are to be protected from malevolent acts (e.g., sabotage)
and from events such as disasters and civil disorders. Details of
the protection and control requirements set forth in this Order are
found in DOE M 5632.1C-1.
b. Threat. The "Design Basis Threat Policy for the Department of
Energy Programs and Facilities (U)" shall be used to identify and
characterize the range of potential adversary threats to
Departmental programs and facilities. Field Elements should review
and develop, as appropriate, supplementary local threat policy to
take into account site-specific and regional-specific threat
considerations.
c. Graded Protection. By graded approach, DOE intends that, in the
development and implementation of protection and control programs,
the level of effort and magnitude of resources expended for the
protection of a particular security interest are commensurate with
the security interest's importance or the impact of its loss,
destruction, or misuse. Interests whose loss, theft, compromise,
and/or unauthorized use will have serious impact on the national
security, program continuity, and/or the health and safety of DOE
and contractor employees, the public, the environment, or
Department of Energy programs, shall be given the highest level of
protection. For example, use of a weapon of mass destruction by a
terrorist(s) could have consequences so grave as to demand the
highest reasonably attainable standard of security. Protection of
other interests shall be graded accordingly. Protection-related
plans shall describe, justify, and document the graded protection
provided the various interests. Asset valuation, threat analysis,
and vulnerability assessments shall be considered, along with the
acceptable level of risk and any uncertainties, to decide how great
is the risk and what protection measures are to be applied. Heads
of Departmental Elements shall provide a rational, cost-effective,
and enduring protection framework using risk management as the
underlying basis for making security-related decisions.
d. Protection Planning. Protection planning is essential to all
Departmental facilities and contractor facilities used for
Department of Energy work. Sites, as appropriate, shall develop a
Site Safeguards and Security Plan as required by DOE 5630.14A,
SAFEGUARDS AND SECURITY PROGRAM PLANNING. Sites and facilities not
covered by DOE 5630.14A should use the Order as guidance when
developing local security plans.
(1) Protection Strategy. A protection strategy shall be
developed and delineated by each DOE site and approved by the
Head of the Field Element for all safeguards and security
interests. The strategy used will be determined by the impact
that a malevolent act would have on the national security,
program continuity, the health and safety of DOE and
contractor employees, the public, and/or the environment.
(NOTE: Safeguards and security programs shall provide a high
degree of assurance of the capability to deter, detect,
assess, delay, prevent, and/or inhibit unauthorized access to
nuclear weapons, nuclear test devices, or completed nuclear
assemblies, Category II or greater quantities of special
nuclear material, and Vital Equipment. The safeguards and
security system shall be capable of responding, denying
access, preventing removal, and/or recovering these
Departmental assets from an adversary, while providing command
and control to protective forces. Strategies for the
protection and control of classified matter shall incorporate
the applicable requirements established in DOE M 5632.1C-1.)
(2) Contingency/Emergency Planning. Plans that address protection
measures shall be developed and in place for events such as a
threat guidance event, natural disasters, civil emergencies,
personnel shortfalls (e.g., work force shortfalls, work force
disruptions, walkouts, disputes), call-out of off-duty
employees, and other credible situations.
(3) Outside Agency Protection Support Planning. Plans shall
document the support to be expected from outside agencies in
response to security incidents. Required actions of outside
agencies shall be determined and documented, as appropriate,
in Memoranda of Understanding. Each Memorandum of
Understanding shall be reviewed with the appropriate
agency(ies) at least annually to ensure its validity.
e. Protection Program Elements. Applications of protection system
elements shall be tailored and integrated to provide the levels of
protection appropriate for safeguards and security interests.
Effective physical protection shall rely on the interaction between
security systems, protective personnel, and administrative
procedures. In addition, physical protection programs shall be
integrated with other Safeguards and Security Program elements,
such as Material Control and Accountability and Information
Security, to achieve total system integration. See the DOE 5633
series of directives regarding Material Control and Accountability
and DOE 5639 series for Information Security.
(1) Security Areas and Restricted Access Areas.
(a) Security Areas, described more fully in DOE M 5632.1C-1,
shall be established when the nature, size, revealing
characteristics, sensitivity, monetary value, or
importance of safeguards and security interests is such
that access to them cannot otherwise be effectively
controlled. Limited Areas, Protected Areas, Exclusion
Areas, Vital Areas, and Material Access Areas shall be
defined by barriers and access to them shall be
controlled. Property Protection Areas may be defined by
barriers and access to them may be controlled.
(b) Restricted Access Areas, described in DOE M 5632.1C-1,
may be established for the purpose of controlling access
based on the appropriate access authorization and/or
official duties. Examples include:
1 Sensitive Compartmented Information Facilities.
2 Central and Secondary Alarm Stations.
3 Secure Communications Areas.
4 Automated Information System Centers.
(2) Intrusion Detection System and Assessment Capability.
Intrusion detection systems may be used to detect unauthorized
entry and/or presence in Security Areas and Restricted Areas.
Visual observations by protective personnel may be used in
place of or to complement an intrusion detection system
depending on the requirements for the area being protected.
See DOE M 5632.1C-1, page IV-3, for their required use at
Protected Areas, Vital Areas, Material Access Areas, and
Exclusion Areas.
(3) Access Controls and Entry/Exit Inspections.
(a) Access to classified matter and special nuclear materials
shall be limited to persons who possess an appropriate
access authorization and who require such access in the
performance of their official duties, on a need-to-know
basis.
(b) A person without appropriate access authorization
(security clearance), who is otherwise authorized to
enter a Limited Area, Exclusion Area, or Protected Area
(including Material Access Area or Vital Area within a
Protected Area) shall be escorted at all times within the
Security Area by an individual with the appropriate
access authorization.
(c) Personnel, hand-carried items, vehicles, and vehicle
contents shall be subject to inspections, as applicable,
at Security Area entry control points to deter the
introduction of prohibited articles. Personnel, hand-
carried items, vehicles, and vehicle contents shall be
subject to inspections, as applicable, at Security Area
exit control points to deter the unauthorized removal of
safeguards and security interests.
(4) Barriers. Permanent physical barriers shall be installed to
control, deny, impede, or delay unauthorized access into
Limited Areas, Protected Areas, Exclusion Areas, Material
Access Areas, and Vital Areas.
(5) Locks. Security locks shall be used to secure safeguards and
security interests.
(6) Secure Storage. Secure storage for the interest under
protection shall be provided in a graded manner.
(7) Protective Personnel/Protective Force. Protective personnel
are an essential part of the physical protection program.
Such personnel include the Protective Force as well as other
persons having administrative or other protective duties.
Protective force policy, responsibilities and requirements are
stated in DOE 5632.7A, PROTECTIVE FORCES.
(8) Communications.
(a) Voice communications systems used for security purposes
shall be reliable and provide intelligible voice
communications for all applicable modes of operation.
(b) Security system data transmission lines shall be
protected in a graded manner from substitution and
tampering.
(9) Testing and Maintenance.
(a) Physical protection systems' effectiveness shall be
determined through system acceptance and validation
testing that is consistent with DOE 5630.16A, SAFEGUARDS
AND SECURITY ACCEPTANCE AND VALIDATION TESTING PROGRAM.
(b) A program of scheduled testing and maintenance according
to DOE 4330.4B, MAINTENANCE MANAGEMENT PROGRAM, shall be
implemented to ensure an effective, operable security
system. The program shall include identification of
critical components and subsystems. The time interval
between tests shall be determined on a graded basis
according to the asset under protection and shall be
documented.
(10) Posting. Signs reflecting information on the Atomic Weapons
and Special Nuclear Rewards Act; prohibited articles; the
inspection of vehicles, packages, or persons either entering
or exiting; and trespassing, if applicable, shall be posted.
Signs prohibiting trespassing shall be posted around the
perimeter and at each entrance to a Security Area except when
one Security Area is located within a larger posted Security
Area. Also, notices shall be posted in each area where
physical protection surveillance equipment is operational.
f. Physical Protection Equipment Usage. Programs and procedures shall
be developed to deter and/or detect misuse of physical protection
equipment (e.g., video assessment equipment). Violations shall be
reported to the local cognizant authority for safeguards and
security. Physical protection equipment, when used in accordance
with this policy, is not considered technical surveillance
equipment and, therefore, is not subject to the policy requirements
for technical surveillance equipment.
g. Security Badges. Security badge systems shall indicate individuals
access limitations and/or approvals for the purpose of controlling
entrance and exit to Security Areas and facilities and for
Safeguards and Security-related identification purposes. Access
limitations indicated by badges shall not be used alone for the
release of classified and/or sensitive matter. Need-to-know
determinations shall be made before granting individuals access to
classified matter.
h. Credentials and Shields. The design of safeguards and security
credentials and shields will be approved on a case-by-case basis by
