Warrenville, lL 60555 SUBJECT PEACH BOTTOM ATOMIC POWER STATION - NRC SECURITY INSPECTION RE PORT 0500027 7 l 20 1 1 403 AN D 05000 27 I l 20 I 1 403
Dear Mr. Pacilio:
On February 23,2011, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed a security baseline inspection at your Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station. The inspection covered one or more of the key attributes of the security cornerstone of the NRC's Reactor Oversight Process.
The enclosed inspection report documents the inspection results, which were discussed on February 23,2011, with Mr. Garey L. Stathes, Plant Manager, and other members of your staff.
The inspection examined activities conducted under your licenses as they relate to security and compliance with the Commission's rules and regulations and with the conditions of your licenses. The inspectors reviewed selected procedures and records, observed activities, and interviewed personnel.
This report documents one NRC-identified finding of very low security significance (i.e., Green as determined by the Baseline Security Significance Determination Process). The deficiency was promptly corrected or compensated for, and the plant was in compliance with applicable physical protection and security requirements within the scope of this inspection before the inspectors left the site.
The finding had a cross-cutting aspect in the area of Human Performance (Work Practices component) because Exelon did not effectively communicate expectations regarding compliance with regulatory requirements and personnel following procedures H.4(b). lf you disagree with the cross-cutting aspect assigned to the finding 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 RegionalAdministrator, Region l; and the NRC Resident Inspector at the Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station.
