It outlines compliance expectations with DOE Order 420.1B, 10 CFR 851, and referenced codes, and explains risk-based approaches using Highly Protected Risk and defense-in-depth. The chapter covers requirements for new construction and modifications, automatic sprinklers, fire protection backflow preventers, and detailed fire alarm system design criteria including
