SUMMARY
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) continued monitoring the licensees performance by conducting a security baseline inspection at Nine Mile Point Nuclear Station,
Units 1 and 2, in accordance with the Reactor Oversight Process. The Reactor Oversight Process is the NRCs program for overseeing the safe operation of commercial nuclear power reactors. Refer to https://www.nrc.gov/reactors/operating/oversight.html for more information.
List of Findings and Violations
No findings or violations of more than minor significance were identified.
Additional Tracking Items
None.
INSPECTION SCOPES
Inspections were conducted using the appropriate portions of the inspection procedures (IPs) in effect at the beginning of the inspection unless otherwise noted. Currently approved IPs with their attached revision histories are located on the public website at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/doc-collections/insp-manual/inspection-procedure/index.html. Samples were declared complete when the IP requirements most appropriate to the inspection activity were met consistent with Inspection Manual Chapter (IMC) 2201, Security Inspection Program for Commercial Nuclear Power Reactors. The inspectors reviewed selected procedures and records, observed activities, and interviewed personnel to assess licensee performance and compliance with Commission rules and regulations, license conditions, site procedures, and standards.
SAFEGUARDS

71130.04 - Equipment Performance, Testing, and Maintenance
The inspectors evaluated the security equipment testing and maintenance program. The following elements were evaluated from IP:
Equipment Performance, Testing, and Maintenance (1 Sample)
(1)38 Requirements (02.01 a, 02.02 a - i, 02.03 a - c, 02.04 a - c, f, g, 02.06 a, b, d, e, 02.07 a - d, 02.08 a - e, 02.09 a, 02.09 a, 02.10 a, 02.11 a, c, 02.12 a, 02.14)

71130.09 - Security Plan Changes
The inspectors evaluated the security plan changes through completion of the following
===procedure elements:
Security Plan Changes===
- (1) Since the last NRC baseline inspection of this program area, Security Plan Revision 15 to 16 was implemented. Based on Nine Mile Point Nuclear Station's evaluation, and in accordance with Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR)50.54(p)(2), the changes resulted in no decrease in safeguards effectiveness of the security plan and the revised security plan changes continues to meet the requirements of 10 CFR 73.55(b). The inspectors conducted a review of the security plan changes to evaluate for a potential decrease in safeguards effectiveness of the security plan; however, this review does not constitute formal NRC approval of those changes. Therefore, the changes remain subject to future NRC inspection in their entirety.
