Title | Attempted Entry Onto the Site by an Illegal Alien with False Identification |
Event Description | This event is being reported as a newsworthy concern to the public under 10 CFR 50.72(b)(2)(xi). All times listed are approximate Mountain Standard Time.
On September 26,2012, at 13:36 pm, Arizona Public Service (APS) was notified of the intention of Maricopa County Sheriff's Office (MCSO) to issue a press release regarding an attempted entry to the Palo Verde Nuclear Generating Station's (PVNGS) Security Owner Controlled Area (SOCA) by an individual with suspicious identification earlier this morning. An individual employed with a construction project sub-contractor arrived at the SOCA checkpoint and presented suspicious identification to PVNGS security officers to gain access to the site. The individual was not admitted through the checkpoint into the SOCA. MCSO was notified and placed the individual into custody. MCSO determined the identification was false and the individual was an undocumented immigrant. The individual did not enter nor was he previously granted access to the site's Protected Areas surrounding the three units and Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation. No evidence of malicious intent has been identified. MCSO is investigating the incident. The station notified NRC Resident Inspectors and Region IV staff of the condition. APS does not intend at this time to issue a press release, but is responding to media inquiries. |
