Licensee overall performance in implementing the security program was good.
Weaknesses were identified in one portion of protected area access control activities. These weaknesses involved poor implementation and less than effective management overview of search activities of hand-carried items. A weakness was also identified in management's effort to resolve in a timely manner a reliability problem with some intrusion alarm detection devices.
Positive performance was noted regarding the effectiveness and implementation of alarm station activities, resolving reactive and preventative maintenance issues, and conducting security training activities regarding tactical drills.
Positive licensee performance was noted in planning and implementation of security activities relating to the independent spent fuel storage installation (ISFSI). During our review of this activity, the inspector identified one minor weakness involving the height of a security barrier in one location.
The licensee implemented action to correct the problem.
'
Specific inspection results showed, except for the issues noted above, that the licensee was implementing a security program that addressed security plan commitments and that management activities supported the security program in-an appropriate manner.
