,

security shelters.

.

The licensee has purchased twelve bullet resistant vests for

the security of ficers (50's).

The licensee has provided the 50's with binoculars to better

observe the Owner Controiled Area during their tours.

New replacement binoculars were also placed in the defensive positions and in the bullet resistant area of the Guard Office.

The licensee's security contractor is in the process of purchasing

new weapons for the armed SO's.

Due to the need to train all armed S0's in the use of the now weapons, the contractor has enrolled an additional instructor in an approved firearms training course specifically developed by the manufacturer of the new weapons.

The addition of this new instructor will increase the contractor's training department to three instructors.

The licensee has scheduled unarmed self-defense training for

The inspectors randomly selected and reviewed the training and qualification records for 7 S0's, including supervisory personnel.

Their physical and firearms qualification records were also inspected.

No deficiencies were noted.

However, during Inspection No. 50-244/90-21, the inspector determined, from interviewing the security training coordinator, that the training coordinator had no mechanism to incorporate lessons learned during program implementation into the formal lesson plans.

For example, lessons learned-were being incorporated into security procedures, but no changes were made to the lesson plans, although the training on lessons learned was being accomplished through on-the-job training.

During this inspection, the inspectors determined through a selected review of the contractor's lesson plans that revisions initiated due to lessons learned were being incorporated in the security procedures, but stili had not been included in the lesson plans.

The licensee stated that the revisions were being' accumulated and would be included in the lesson plans as soon as possible. At the completion of the inspection, the licensee informed the inspectors that all applicable lesson plans had been revised'

to reflect the changes made to the security procedures. Due to time constraints, the inspectors did not verify these changes in the lesson plans.

This matter will be reviewed during subsequent inspections.
