SUBJECT: PROTECTION PROGRAM OPERATIONS
ORDER
DOE 5632. lA
2-9-88
1. PURPOSE. To establish Department of Energy (DOE) policies for the
physical protection of security interests and baseline physical
protection standards.
2. CANCELLATION. DOE 5632.4, PHYSICAL PROTECTION OF SECURITY INTERESTS, of
11-4-85, and DOE 5631.3, ISSUANCE AND CONTROL OF CREDENTIALS, SHIELDS,
AND COURIER CARDS, of 2-3-87.
3. SCOPE. The provisions of this Order apply to all Departmental Elements
and contractors performing work for the Department as provided by law
and/or contract and as implemented by the appropriate contracting
officer.
4. BACKGROUND.
a. Physical protection of security interests encompasses three major
activities: physical security systems, protective forces, and system
performance tests. It covers the entire physical security program at
a facility including security equipment, procedures, protective
forces, management and supervision, and the integration of these
elements into a total physical protection security system.
b. This Order establishes the authorities and responsibilities for
managing and implementing the protection of security interests and
sets forth the framework for the following 5632 Order series which
defines the policies and baseline requirements specific to related
aspects of protection program operation:
( 1 ) Physical Protection of
(2) Physical Protection of
(3) Physical Protection of
Facilities;
(4) Protective Forces;
DISTRIBUTION:
All D2pa rt mental El e rrents
Special Nuclear and Vital Equipment;
Classified Matter;
Departmental Property and Unclassified

(5) Protection Program Operations - Systems Performance Tests; and
(6) Issuance, Control, and Use of Badges, Passes, and Credentials.
c. The standards set forth in the DOE Standards and Criteria have their
foundation in DOE Orders which contain the policy for developing a
safeguards and security program. These standards are supported by criteria
which are examples of some of the mechanisms available for use by management
in appropriately implementing the policy. The Protection Program Operations
section of the DOE Safeguards and Security Standards and Criteria provides
information and guidance for operation of an effective protection program.
The Standards and Criteria shall be considered when designing, modifying, or
operating DOE facilities. Standards and Criteria applicable to each
facility shall be identified on a site-specific basis and modified, as
appropriate, to address site-specific needs. Protection programs must be
designed to address site-specific characteristics.
d. The classified generic threat guidance issued by the Assistant Secretary for
Defense Programs (DP-1) must be considered in the design and implementation
of protection programs.
5. POLICY. The Department's security interests are to be protected from theft or
diversion of special nuclear material (SNM), industrial sabotage, radiological
sabotage (e.g., induced criticality), espionage, loss or theft of classified
matter or Government property, and other hostile acts which may cause unaccept
able adverse impacts on national security or on the health and safety of the
public. Specific policies and objectives, as identified in this Order series,
are expressed in terms of what is required. Levels of protection appropriate to
particular security interests are to be provided in a graded fashion in
accordance with the potential risks to national security and the health and
safety of the public. The protection provided Departmental security interests
shall be comparable to that provided by other Government agencies with similar
security interests.
Section 2
6. CONCEPT OF OPERATIONS.
a. DOE's policy for protecting security interests applies equally to all
Departmental Elements. However, this policy is implemented at a wide range
of facilities; site-specific characteristics must be considered to assure
that Departmental security interests are provided appropriate and cost
effective protection. In order to allow for effective protection, programs
shall be designed to address site-specific requirements.
DOE 5632.lA
2-9-88
b. When it is impractical or not cost-effective to meet a specific
requirement of this Order series, alternate means of providing
adequate protection may be proposed. There are two categories of
exceptions involving the following:
3
(1) Security of Category I and II quantities of SNM and/or
materials, facilities, or operations covered by the classified
threat guidance issued by DP-1. These exceptions shall be
developed and approved by the Heads of Field Elements and
submitted in writing to the Director of Safeguards and Security
(DP-34) for review and concurrence prior to implementation.
Written records of such exceptions shall be included in the
appropriate site-specific safeguards and security plan(s) and/or
Master Safeguards and Security Agreements (MSSAs).
(2) Security of less than Category II quantities of SNM and/or
materials, facilities, or operations not covered by the classi
fied threat guidance issued by DP-1. These exceptions shall be
approved by the Head of Field Elements and included in the
appropriate site-specific safeguards and security plan(s) and/or
MSSAs.
c. MSSAs are the preferred mechanism for implementing DOE policy and
defining appropriate protection levels and strategies for particular
security interests on a site-specific basis that are consistent with
the operational requirements, the applicable threat, the target
attractiveness, and the potential risks. The MSSA process is also an
appropriate mechanism for identifying, justifying, and documenting
site-specific protection systems or procedures that do not conform
with the baseline requirements of this Order series.
d. Site-specific protection programs shall be documented in appropriate
safeguards and security plans and/or MSSAs which shall specifically
identify and justify deviations from the basic requirements of this
Order series.
e. Implementation of emergency management/preparedness elements of this
Order shall be in accordance with DOE 5500.lA, EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT
SYSTEMS, and subsequent issuances of the 5500 series Orders.
f. For all facilities having MSSAs, evaluations, inspections,
appraisals, and audits shall be formulated utilizing the MSSAs as the
basis for developing the requirements.
4 DOE 5632.lA
~9-88
g. Safeguards and security protective measures will be developed and
implemented to assure balance of the impact on safety requirements.
7. REFERENCES. See Attachment 1.
8. DEFINITIONS. See Attachment 2.

onsite survey by the responsible operations office that a facility is
approved to receive, use, process, and/or store SNM.
108. SPECIAL NUCLEAR MATERIAL VAULT. A penetration-resistant, windowless
enclosure which has: (a) walls, floor, and ceiling substantially
constructed of materials which afford forced penetration resistance
at least equivalent to that of 8-inch thick reinforced concrete; (b)
any openings greater than 96 square inches in area and over 6 inches
in the smallest dimension protected by imbedded steel bars at least
5/8 inches in diameter on 6-inch centers both horizontally and
vertically; (c) a built-in combination locked steel door which in
existing structures is at least 1-inch thick exclusive of bolt work
and locking devices and which for new structures meets the Class 5
standards set forth in Federal Specification AA-D-6008 of the Federal
Specifications and Standards, cited in Title 41 CFR Part 101.
109. STANDARD. For the purposes of these guides, a standard shall be
considered as a model established by law, DOE regulation, policy,
custom, or general agreement against which a security system can be
measured. An example might be that a vault door containing special
nuclear material should have a certain delay time against a defined
threat.
110. STANDARD WORK CLOTHING. For evaluating closed-circuit television
motion detectors, standard work clothing is the equivalent of washed
denim jeans and jacket. Such clothing shall be a measure of
intruder-to-background contrast.

electronic or electromechanical equipment processing classified information.
113. TECHNICAL SURVEILLANCE COUNTERMEASURES (TSCM). All measures taken to prevent,
detect and neutralize devices used to clandestinely monitor classified activi
ties, for example, wiretap and eavesdrop devices. A TSCM Survey is a detailed
examination by specifically trained technicians using sophisticated equipment
to locate clandestine technical surveillance devices or other means by which
classified activity could be monitored.
114. TOP SECRET. The classification level applied to information whose unauthor
ized disclosure could reasonably be expected to cause exceptionally grave
damage to the national security; the highest classification level.
115. TRANSPORTATION SAFEGUARDS SYSTEM. The program, managed and operated by the
Manager, Albuquerque Operations Office, under the programmatic direction of
the Deputy Assistant Secretary for Military Application (DP-2O), which has the
administrative and courier personnel, special transport and escort vehicles,
and nationwide high frequency communications system, required to carry out the
total responsibility for the safe, secure, domestic transportation of all
Departmental-owned or controlled nuclear explosives, Category I or II
quantities of SNM (excluding naval reactor core shipments), and other cargos
deemed appropriate and agreed to by the Manager, Albuquerque Operations
Office, and respective Heads of Departmental Elements.

116. VAULT-TYPE ROOM. A DOE-approved room having combination-locked door(s) and
protected by a Departmental-approved intrusion alarm system activated by any
penetration of walls, floor, ceiling, or openings, or by motion within the
room.
117. VITAL AREA. A security area located within a protected area for the protec
tion of vital equipment.
118. VITAL EQUIPMENT. Equipment, systems, or components whose failure or destruc
tion would cause unacceptable interruption to a national security program or
an unacceptable impact to the health and safety of the public.

120. WASTE. A term applied to any source or SNM which is no longer useful
and uneconomical or infeasible to recover, including that which has
become radioactive to the extent that the material itself exhibits
radioactivity of such a level that it must be handled and disposed of
by special methods in order to protect the general public.
121. WEAPON DATA. Classified information, including Restricted Data or
Formerly Restricted Data, concerning the design, manufacture, or use,
including theory, development, storage, characteristics, performance,
and effects, of atomic weapons or components thereof, and information
incorporated in or relating to nuclear explosive devices.
122. ZONE (ISOLATION ZONE). The entire perimeter adjacent to the
protected area.
123. ZONE OF OBSERVATION--CLOSED-CIRCUIT TELEVISION. The zones of
observation for perimeter intrusion alarm assessment by closed
circuit television are those parts of the isolation zone and exterior
areas of the protected area extending from the nearest points on the
ground viewable by the closed-circuit television camera to the
similar point on the ground viewable by an adjacent closed-circuit
television camera that is pointed in the same direction or azimuth.
Each zone includes the mounting and cable runs of the adjacent
camera.
