SUMMARY

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) continued monitoring the licensees performance by conducting a security baseline target set inspection at Oconee Nuclear Station,

Units, 1, 2, and 3, in accordance with the Reactor Oversight Process (ROP). 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.

List of Findings and Violations

No findings nor violations of more-than-minor (MTM) significance were identified during this inspection.

Additional Tracking Items

None.

INSPECTION SCOPES

Baseline security target set inspections were conducted using the appropriate portions of the inspection procedures (IPs) in effect at the beginning of the inspection, unless otherwise noted.

Currently approved and publicly available IPs with their attached revision histories are located on the public website at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/doc-collections/insp-manual/inspection-procedure/index.html.

Samples were declared complete when the IP requirements most appropriate to the inspection activity were met, consistent with Inspection Manual Chapter (IMC) 2201, Security Inspection Program for Commercial Nuclear Power Reactors.

The inspector 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 industry standards.

SAFEGUARDS

- SECURITY BASELINE

71130.14 - Review of Power Reactor Target Sets

The inspector evaluated the licensees Security Target Set Program. The following elements were evaluated:

Review of Power Reactor Target Sets (1 Sample)

(1) [List Inspection Requirements: 02.01, 02.02 (a-d, f), 02.03, 02.04 (a-b), 02.05]

Review of Events and Logs (Section 02.01)

The inspector reviewed any licensee event reports (LERs), safeguards log entries, and corrective action program (CAP) entries since the last Target Set inspection that concern the target set identification, development, and maintenance program.

Target Set Identification and Development Process Review (Section 02.02)

The inspector assessed the licensee's documentation and maintenance of the process used to develop and identify complete and accurate target sets as required by 10 CFR Part 73 by reviewing applicable portions of procedures and samples of records and conducting interviews with responsible personnel and plant employees. The inspector ensured all the Target Sets addressed the high-level adversary objectives in the target set analysis.

Verification of Target Sets Changes (Section 02.03)

The inspector reviewed any changes to the licensees documented target sets since the last Target Set inspection. The inspector verified that any design modifications and procedure or configuration changes that have occurred were appropriately documented in the site's target sets, in order to verify the sets were complete and accurate.

Verification of Complete and Accurate Target Sets (Section 02.04)

The inspector interviewed licensee personnel and reviewed a sample of target sets for reactor operation and for modes other than operation. Additionally, the inspector reviewed assumptions used in the licensees development of the site's Target Sets to include all modes of reactor operations and any configuration or modification changes.

Physical Protection Program Review (Section 02.05)

The inspector verified that the licensee performed a review of Target Sets for accuracy, completeness, and applicability at least every 24 months and as otherwise required, documented the results and recommendations, and entered findings in the sites corrective action program (CAP).

INSPECTION RESULTS

No findings were identified.

EXIT MEETINGS AND DEBRIEFS
