SUBJECT:

MONTICELLO NUCLEAR GENERATING PLANT - NRC SECURITY INSPECTION REPORT 05000263/2015201

Dear Mr. Gardner:

On November 20, 2015, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed a security inspection at your Monticello Nuclear Generating Plant. On November 25, 2015, the NRC inspectors discussed the results of this inspection with Mr. Don Bosnic and other members of your staff. Inspectors documented the results of this inspection in the enclosed inspection report.

The NRC inspectors documented one finding of a very low security significance (Green) in this report. This finding involved a violation of NRC requirements. The NRC is treating this violation as a non-cited violation (NCV) consistent with Section 2.3.2.a of the Enforcement Policy.

If you contest this violation or the significance of this NCV, you should provide a response within 30 days of the date of this inspection report, with the basis for your denial, to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, ATTN: Document Control Desk, Washington DC 20555-0001; with copies to the Regional Administrator, Region III; the Director, Office of Nuclear Security and Incident Response; the Director, Office of Enforcement, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Washington, DC 20555-0001; and the NRC resident inspector at the Monticello Nuclear Generating Plant.

If you disagree with a cross-cutting aspect assignment or a finding not associated with a regulatory requirement in this report, you should provide a response within 30 days of the date of this inspection report, with the basis for your disagreement, to the Regional Administrator, Region III; the Director, Office of Nuclear Security and Incident Response; and the NRC resident inspector at the Monticello Nuclear Generating Plant.

In accordance with Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) 2.390, Public Inspections, Exemptions, Request for Withholding, of the NRC's "Rules of Practice," a copy of this letter will be available electronically for public inspection in the NRCs Public Document Room or from the Publicly Available Records (PARS) component of the NRC's Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS). ADAMS is accessible from the NRC Web site at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html (the Public Electronic Reading Room).

The material enclosed herewith contains Safeguards Information (SGI) as defined by 10 CFR 73.21, Protection of Safeguards Information: Performance Requirements, and its disclosure to unauthorized individuals is prohibited by Section 147 of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended; therefore, the material in the enclosure will not be made available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public Document Room or from the PARS component of NRC's ADAMS. If you choose to provide a response and SGI is necessary to provide an acceptable response, please provide the level of protection described in 10 CFR 73.21. Otherwise, if Security-Related Information is necessary to provide an acceptable response, please mark your entire response Security-Related Information -

Withhold from Public Disclosure Under 10 CFR 2.390 in accordance with 10 CFR 2.390(d)(1)

and follow the instructions for withholding in 10 CFR 2.390(b)(1). In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390(b)(1)(ii), the NRC is waiving the affidavit requirements for your response.

Sincerely,

/RA E. Byre for/

Daniel Cardenas, Acting Chief Security Performance Evaluation Branch Division of Security Operations Office of Nuclear Security and Incident Response
