30703 - Exit Interview The inspector met with the licensee representatives identified in paragraph I at the conclusion of the inspection on November 21, 1986. At that time the purpose and scope of the inspection were reviewed and the findings of the inspection were presented by the inspector.

At no time during this inspection was written material provided to the Itcensee by the inspector.

3.

92701 - Status of Inspector Followup Items (Closed) Inspector Followup Item 50-247/85-08-01: The inspector confirmed by a review of maintenance records that major repairs to the security diesel generator, including the replacement of a rear seal, installation of an alternator, and replacement of lead acid batteries with nickel cadium batteries, had been accomplished. The licensee had also assigned a qualified maintenance specialist to the security diesel. The maintenance specialist informed the inspector that no problems with load tests were experienced since June 1986.

The inspector observed a suc-cessful surveillance test of the diesel on November 21, 1986.

(Closed) Inspector Followup Item 50-247/86-02-05: The inspector

,

!

confirmed by review of documentation, which included previous meeting

minutes, and physical attendance at a routine scheduled security organ-ization management meeting (that included attendance by a non manage-

ment member of the security force), that the licensee had effectively

)

implemented improved management controls over matters involving security.

Topics of discussion at the meeting attended by the inspector included goals, self inspection techniques, personnel and program changes, and

'

effectiveness and status of compensatory measures. The inspector con-

,

l firmed by direct observations of security supervisors and members of the

'

security force during this inspection that changes in management controls i

have had a beneficial effect on the overall performance of the security

'

organization.

(Closed) Inspector Followup Item 50-247/86-02-06: The inspector confirmed

the basis for a 10 CFR 50.54(p) change to the security plan that was re-

,

cently submitted to.the NRC by the licensee. The change involved the clarification of the functions of the electronic monitoring features'of

,

the perimeter intrusion detection system. The inspector found that the plan change clearly describes the features.

>

(Closed) Inspector Followup' Item 50-247/86-02-07: The inspector confirmed

via visual observation and testing of certain protected and vital area barriers on November 19 and 20, 1986, that the barriers had been appro-priately modified (hardened) and that the alarm system operated in accordance with the NRC-approved security plan.

,

!

(Closed) Inspector Followup Item 50-247/86-02-08: The inspector confirmed

'

'by review that the licensee had developed formalized lesson plans for the

,

security organization training program.

Lesson plans were developed for i

each position in the security organization based on qualification require-ments contained in the NRC-approved Training and Qualification Plan. The

,

i inspector also confirmed that the licensee implemented revised security i

organization procedures and post instructions consistent with a compre-hensive revision to the security plan that was submitted to the NRC on

October 7, 1986 under the provisions of 10 CFR 50.54(p).

l 4.

MC 81018 - Security Plan and Implementing Procedures

The licensee submitted a revision of the physical security plan on October 7, 1986 under 10 CFR 50.54(p). The inspector reviewed the re-

,

vision for clarity of commitments and inspectability.

The inspector found

!

.

the revision to be generally adequate with respect to those criteria. The

,

l revision is currently under NRC review for acceptability.

5.

MC 81022 - Security Organization l

The inspector reviewed the restructured security organization described in a recent security plan change submitted to NRC under the provisions of

'

!

10 CFR 50.54(p). Observations during this inspection indicated that the Itcensee was operating in accordance with the restructured organization

-

I and that the organization was as described in the plan change. In ad-

+

'

dition, the inspector found that the security program appeared to have

'

been more formally and better integrated with other plant activities, e.g., operations and maintenance, in terms of awareness of plant status and technical support for security program related equipment. Security i

-

supervisors also demonstrated an increased awareness of the status of

<

!

security systems and promptly responded to inspector requests for detailed

{

program information.

Security force members were aware of their duties and responsibilities and, during interviews with the inspector, correctly

demonstrated that they knew who to call when they had questions.

Tech-nical support from maintenance was found to be provided on a much more timely basis and appeared to be well coordinated and in accordance with security program performance objectives.

The licensee implemented a total of 36 revised program procedures and a total of 37 security force post instructions on November 20, 1986. These revised procedures and instructions were developed to be consistent with the revisions made to the security plan, to improve communications with the security organization and to clarify the duties and responsibilities for the members of the security organization. While the inspector did not review all the revised procedures and instructions, those that were re-viewed showed improvement in terms of development, format and clarity over previous revisions. They also indicated to the inspector that the review process had been strengthened.

'

The inspector also observed that the security organization had implemented a recognition and awards program for their members. Guard of the Month awards and other methods of recognition, e.g., letters of commendation, are examples of incentives used by management to improve performance, compliance and to appropriately recognize the contributions of security force members.

The inspector observed the new offices and conference rooms assigned to both the proprietary and contract security organizations. The new quarters appeared to be responsive to the needs of the security organ-ization and combined all security functions in one facility.

The inspector also observed that management and supervisory meetings

.

dealing with security matters were now being scheduled on a routine and more frequent basis and include all levels of the licensee's organization.

L i

The inspector found assessment aids, access control process and f

equipment, and intrusion detection equipment / systems to be operable in

!

accordance with the NRC-approved security plan.

Equipment failures which did occur during the inspection were observed by the inspector to

have been adequately compensated for as prescribed in the licensee's l

procedures.

!

'

The inspector noted that the licensee has established a Nuclear Power /

I Corporate Central Engineering goal of improving security equipment /

i systems performance. The goal ob11 gates the Nuclear Power Department and l

Central Engineering to jointly analyze the present Indian Point Security l

System for such things as: capabilities of the existing system; needs l

compared to regulatory requirements; experience with systems at other nuclear plants; currently proven technology; and cost factors for imple-menting improvements.

The completion date for this joint goal is December, 1987.

Progress on this goal will be reviewed by the inspector periodically in future inspections of the licensee's security program.

This is an Inspector Followup Item (IFI) 86-30-01.

The inspector noted that the licensee was testing a new computer software program that simplifies re-booting of the computer, eliminates the exist-ing anti passback feature for access control, and will facilitate the addition of another CRT terminal. A preliminary test of the new program was conducted on the evening of November 18, 1986. Utilization of this new software is expected upon completion of a successful testing program.

7.

MC 81034 - Security Program Audit The inspector reviewed the annual Quality Assurance Corporate Audit of the Security Program concluded on September 24, 1986. The audit findings and corrective actions were reviewed and found completed except for the following item:

The licensee is currently in the process of further improving the effectiveness of the audit program. A new self inspection program based on both compliance requirements and program performance objectives is under development by the Corporate Site Security Representative. This project is expected to be completed in 1987. The status of this project will be reviewed in future inspections of the security program. This is an Inspector Followup Item (IFI 86-30-03).
