SUBJECT:

PEACH BOTTOM ATOMIC POWER STATION, UNITS 2 and 3 -

SECURITY INSPECTION REPORT 05000277/2016404 AND 05000278/2016404

Dear Mr. Hanson:

On August 12, 2016, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed a security inspection at your Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station, Units 2 and 3. The NRC inspectors discussed the results of this inspection with Mr. Mike Massaro, Site Vice President, and other members of your staff. Inspectors documented the results of this inspection in the enclosed inspection report.

NRC inspectors documented one finding of 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 its significance, 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 I; the Director, Office of Enforcement, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Washington, DC 20555 0001; and to the NRCs Resident Inspector at the Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station.

One cross-cutting aspect was assigned to the finding in the area of Human Performance, Conservative Bias, because Exelon failed to ensure individuals used decision making practices that emphasize prudent choices over those that are simply allowable (H.14). If you disagree with the cross-cutting aspect assignment 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 I; and to the NRCs Resident Inspector at the Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station.
