If yes, you can use only one area to map the whole facility because that kind of area is often private and reserved for some extension. In France, beside our ~20 nuclear plants EDF (who operates that kind of plant) is keeping enough room to build extensions of the existing buildings. That reservation is fenced with the rest of the plant and there's no separation between the production facility. So plant area would concern the builded and non-builded zone with operator=EDF. I hope I'm clear enough :) I would write something in proposal to explain more precisely the way we can choose areas around plants.
