SUBJECT:

R. E. GINNA NUCLEAR POWER PLANT. NRC SECURITY BASELINE TNSPECTTON REPORT 05000244t201 1 403

Dear Mr. Carlin:

On March 30, 2011, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed a security baseline inspection at your Ginna Nuclear Power Plant. The inspection covered one or more of the key attributes of the security cornerstone of the NRC's Reactor Oversight Process. The enclosed report documents the inspection results, which were discussed on March 30, 2011, with Thomas Harding, Licensing Director.

The inspection examined activities conducted under your license as they relate to security and compliance with the Commission's rules and regulations and with the conditions of your license, The inspectors reviewed selected procedures and records, observed activities, and interviewed personnel.

This report documents one NRC identified finding of very low security significance (i.e., Green as determined by the Baseline Security Significance Determination Process (BSSDP)). The deficiency was promptly corrected or compensated for, and the plant was in compliance with applicable physical protection and security requirements within the scope of the inspection before the inspectors left the site.

The finding had a cross-cutting aspect in the area of Human Performance (Decision Making component) because the licensee did not adequately conduct an effectiveness review of a security-significant decision IH.1(b)1. lf you disagree with the cross-cutting aspect assigned to any finding in this report, you should provide a response within 30 days of the date of this inspection report, with the basis for your disagreement, to the Regional Administrator, Region l, and the NRC Resident Inspectors at Ginna Nuclear Power Plant.

Enclosure contains Safeguards Information. When separated from enclosure, the transmittal document is decontrolled. However, because of the very low security significance and because it is entered into your corrective action program, the NRC is treating this violation as a non-cited violation consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the NRC Enforcement Policy. lf you contest this non-cited violation, you should provide a response within 30 days of the date of this inspection report, with the basis for your denial, to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Attn: Document Control Desk, Washington, DC 20555-0001;with copies to the RegionalAdministrator, Region l; the Director, Office of Enforcement, United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Washington, DC 20555-0001; and the NRC Resident Inspectors at Ginna Nuclear Power Plant.

However, because of the security-related concerns contained in the enclosure, and in accordance with 10 CFR 73.21, a copy of this letter's enclosure will not be available for public inspection.

ln accordance with 10 CFR 2.390(bX1)(ii), the NRC is waiving the affidavit requirements for your response, if any. This practice will ensure that your response will not be made available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public Document Room or from the NRC's document system, ADAMS. lf Safeguards lnformation is necessary to provide an acceptable response, please provide the level of protection described in 10 CFR 73.22.
