General. shall-be by in a contractual action, (1) (2) (3) Safeguards and security acceptance and validation tests shall be developed for each facility to validate functional requirements and effectiveness of the safeguards and security elements implemented and operating as part of a total system and to assure continuing operation as a total system. Safeguards and security acceptance and validation tests shall be conducted with the highest regard for the safety and health of personnel, protection of the environment, protection of Government property, and national security interests with consideration to depict a level of realism for the test to be representative of the capabilities of the Design Basis Threat Policy issued by SA-1. The requirements contained in DOE Orders, Manuals, Site Safeguards and Security Plans (SSSPs), safeguards and security plans, and other guidance documents will be the basis for designing and evaluating the tests, including frequency of testing and acceptance criteria. DOE 5630.16A 5 6-3-93 (4) (5) (6) (7) (8) (9) Critical system elements shall be identified for each relevant key program element set forth in DOE 5630.11A, including Personnel Security, Protection Program Operation, Nuclear Materials Control and Accountability, and Information Security. Critical system elements may include safeguards and security equipment, procedures, and/or people. These elements shall be tested to verify their continued functionability, operability, effectiveness and/or performance.

Validation testing of safeguards systems shall include elements that can detect-in-time-to-prevent (e.g., portal monitors and material surveillance procedures) and elements that can effectively account for special nuclear material in order to provide assurance that safeguards and security systems are functioning properly (e.g., physical inventory). Testing of some safeguards systems, such as the physical inventory, does not necessarily require a specific stand alone test, but instead a check and evaluation of accounting records, measurements data, and procedures. Testing of elements which are not prone to failure and which are not subject to compromise without noticeable tampering, such as walls and fences, is not required. At least every 365 days, a performance test encompassing critical system elements associated with a comprehensive site or facility threat scenario shall be performed to demonstrate overall facility safeguards and security system effectiveness. Comprehensive threat scenarios shall be taken from facility specific vulnerability assessments. At least every 365 days, after each inoperative or ineffective state for safeguards and security equipment, and after any equipment repairs, each critical system element identified under paragraph 8a(4) and any other critical system elements directly integrated/affected by such. equipment shall be tested through the conduct of effectiveness tests. Effectiveness testing shall cover the range of performance parameters required in the facility’s approved safeguards and security plan, and include the number of tests specified in the safeguards and security acceptance and validation test program plan and justified in safeguards and security acceptance and validation test plans. These tests shall be performed immediately after such repairs, inoperative state, or ineffective state. The overall safeguards and security program shall be considered in a degraded mode until such testing has confirmed the operability of all applicable performance parameters. Compensatory measures may be required during such degraded modes. Critical system elements shall be evaluated for continuing operability through the conduct of operability tests. 6 DOE 5630.16A 6-3-93 b. Safeauards and Security Acceptance and Validation Test Program Plan. A documented and formalized safeguards and security acceptance and validation test program plan shall be developed for each facility and shall be included as part of the approved safeguards and security plan.
