SUBJECT: QUAD CITIES NUCLEAR POWER STATION, UNITS 1 AND 2 - NRC SECURITY INSPECTION REPORT 05000254/2009201 AND 05000265/2009201

Dear Mr. Pardee:

On August 21, 2009, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed a security baseline inspection at the 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 NRC's Reactor Oversight Process. The enclosed inspection report documents the inspection results, which were discussed on August 21, 2009, with Mr. Tim J. Tulon, Site Vice President, and other members of your staff.

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. No findings of significance were identified.

In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390 of the NRC's "Rules 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 System (PARS) component of NRC's Agency-wide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS), 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 concerns 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 NRC's 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).

Should you have any questions concerning this inspection, we will be pleased to discuss them with you.

Sincerely,/RA/ Michael Shannon, Acting Chief Security Performance Evaluations Branch Division of Security Operations Office of Nuclear Security and Incident Response Docket Nos.: 50-254, 50-265 License Nos.: DPR-29, DPR-30 Nonpublic
