SUBJECT:

QUAD CITIES NUCLEAR POWER STATION, UNITS 1 AND 2 NRC SECURITY BASELINE INSPECTION REPORT 05000254/2007401(DRS); 05000265/2007401(DRS)

Dear Mr. Crane:

On March 9, 2007, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed a security baseline inspection at your Quad Cities Nuclear Power Station, Units 1 and 2. The inspection covered one or more of the key attributes of the security cornerstone of the NRCs Reactor Oversight Process. The enclosed inspection report documents the inspection results, which were discussed on March 9, 2007, with Mr. T. Tulon and other members of your staff.

This inspection examined activities conducted under your license as they relate to security and compliance with the Commissions rules and regulations and with the conditions of your license.

The inspector reviewed selected procedures and records, observed activities, and interviewed personnel.

This report documents one finding of very low security significance (i.e., Green as determined by the Physical Protection Significance Determination Process). 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 this inspection before the inspector left the site.

EXEMPT FROM PUBLIC DISCLOSURE May be exempt from public release under the Freedom of Information Act (5 U.S.C. 552)

Exemption number: 5 Nuclear Regulatory Commission review required before public release.

D. Funk, RIII/DRS/PSB Name and organization of person making determination.

In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390(b)(1)(ii), the NRC is waiving the affidavit requirements for your response, if any.
