SUMMARY
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) continued monitoring the licensees performance by conducting a security baseline inspection at Monticello Nuclear Generating Plant, in accordance with the Reactor Oversight Process. The Reactor Oversight Process is the NRCs program for overseeing the safe operation of commercial nuclear power reactors.
Refer to https://www.nrc.gov/reactors/operating/oversight.html for more information.
The NRC also conducted an independent spent fuel storage installation security inspection, in accordance with the Spent Fuel Storage Oversight Process. The Spent Fuel Storage Oversight Process is the NRCs program for overseeing the safe storage of spent nuclear fuel.
Refer to https://www.nrc.gov/waste/spent-fuel-storage/oversight.html for more information.
List of Findings and Violations
No findings or violations of more than minor significance were identified.
