INDIAN POINT ENERGY CENTER - NRC PHYSICAL SECURITY BASELINE INSPECTION REPORT NOS. 05000247/2008402 AND 05000286/2008402

Dear Mr. Pollock:

On July 11, 2008, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed a security baseline inspection at your Indian Point Energy Center. 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 July 11, 2008, with Mr. Patric Conroy, Director, Nuclear Safety Assurance, and other members of your staff.

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

This report documents three NRC identified findings of very low security significance (i.e. Green as determined by the Physical Protection Significance Determination Process). The deficiencies were 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 findings had cross-cutting aspects in the area of Human Performance, including work practices and resources. Additionally, a licensee-identified violation which was determined to be of very low security significance is listed in this report.

However, because of the very low security significance and because they are entered into your corrective action program, the NRC is treating these violations as non-cited violations (NCVs)

consistent with Section VI.A.1 of the NRC Enforcement Policy.

When separated from its Enclosure, this document is DECONTROLLED. If you contest these non-cited violations, 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 Regional Administrator Region I; the Director, Office of Enforcement, United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Washington, DC 20555-0001; and the NRC Resident Inspector at Indian Point Energy Center (IPEC).

In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390 of the NRC=s ARules of Practice,@ a copy of this letter will be available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public Document Room or from the Publicly Available Records (PARS) component of NRC=s document system, ADAMS. ADAMS is accessible from the NRC Website at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html (the Public Electronic Reading Room). However, because of the security-related information contained in the enclosure, and in accordance with 10 CFR 2.390, a copy of this letter=s enclosure will not be available for public inspection.

In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390(b)(1)(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 NRCs document system, ADAMS. If Safeguards Information is necessary to provide an acceptable response, please provide the level of protection described in 10 CFR 73.21. Otherwise, mark your entire response Security-Related Information - Withhold Under 10 CFR 2.390 and follow the instructions for withholding in 10 CFR 2.390(b)(1).

Sincerely,

/RA/
