SUMMARY

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) continued monitoring the licensees

Additional Tracking Items

None.

INSPECTION SCOPES

Unless otherwise noted, baseline security inspections were conducted in accordance with

the appropriate portions of the inspection procedures (IPs) in effect at the beginning of the

inspection. Samples were declared complete when the IP requirements most appropriate

to the inspection activity were met consistent with Inspection Manual Chapter 2201, Security

Inspection Program for Commercial Nuclear Power Reactors. The inspectors reviewed

selected procedures and records, observed activities, and interviewed personnel to assess

licensee performance and compliance with Commission rules and regulations, license

conditions, site procedures, and standards. Publicly available IPs are located at:

http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/doc-collections/insp-manual/inspection-procedure/index.html.

Starting on March 20, 2020, in response to the National Emergency declared by the President

of the United States on the public health risks of the coronavirus (COVID-19), regional

inspectors were directed to begin telework. The inspection documented below was determined

that the objectives and requirements stated in the IP could be, in part, performed remotely.
