Security Program Audit The inspector reviewed the scope of the annual Quality Assurance (QA)

j audit of the security program that began on September. 29, 1987.

The

)

results of that review disclosed that the audit plan included all facets j

of the security program as described in Chapter 14 of the NRC-approved Physical Security Plan (security plan).

Further, the review disclosed that the audit would involve the issue of timely retrieval of security training records that is identified as an unresolved item in Region I Combined Inspection Report Nos. 50-289/87-15 and 50-320/87-11.

During that inspection, review of source training records by the inspector was not possible because the training records were not filed by discipline or by an individual's name and were not maintained in a single location. At that time, licensee personnel estimated that it would take up to 3 hours3.472222e-5 days <br />8.333333e-4 hours <br />4.960317e-6 weeks <br />1.1415e-6 months <br /> to retrieve the source training documents for any individual selected for review.

The inspector determined that the scope of the on going QA Security Program audit will include a review of training records for four indivi-duals, from initial qualification through current requalification, and a review of requalification records for 10"4 of the security organization.

Additionally, after the required source documents are obtained, the timeliness of retrievability of the records will be evaluated by the licensee's QA auditors.

The results of the annual QA Security Program audit and the evaluation of the timeliness of' retrievability of the security force training records will be reviewed by the NRC during a subsequent inspectio.

Physical Protection of Safeguards Information As a result of an occurrence involving the possible mishandling of Safe-guards Information, the licensee contracted an investigator to review the occurrence and the licensee's Safeguards Information protection program.

This investigation was completed in April 1987, and identified several potential weaknesses and ambiguities.

In April 1987, licensee management reviewed the completed investigation report and determined that one applicable procedure required revision.

During this inspection,.the inspector reviewed the licensee's Procedure No. 1000-ADM-1510.01, titled " Protection of Safeguards Information".

That review disclosed that the latest revision to the procedure was dated May 7, 1985, indicating that it had not yet been revised as determined to be necessary by licensee management.

During discussions with licensee management, the inspector expressed concern over the apparent lack of timely revision of the procedure.

Licensee management stated during the exit meeting that the procedure would be revised by October 30, 1987.

On that date, the licensee provided the inspector with a copy of the revised procedure. The procedure has been reviewed ard was found to have been appropriately revised.

4.

Protected Area Detection Aids During Region I Combined Inspection Nos. 50-289/87-15 and 50-320/87-11, the inspectors observed the on going installation of a new protected area perimeter intrusion detection system (PIDS) for Unit 2.

The licensee had previously committed to the installation by December 31, 1987. The installation of the new PIDS was completed and the system was declared operational on August 19, 1987.

During this inspection, the inspector observed the licensee conduct operability tests of all PIDS zones.

The new PIDS performed its function as designed.

The inspector identified a potential reduction in the detection capability in one zone because of the placement of a detector.

The dectection reduction was not obvious and would not have been easily exploited'since it was in a high traffic area with adequate assessment coverage.

The licensee initiated immediate action to evaluate the zone in order to determine if modifications were necessary to enhance the intrusion detec-tion coverage in the zone.

The licensee stated that the modifications, if necessary, would be completed by December 31, 1987.

This matter will be reviewed during a subsequent inspection.

Exit Interview The inspector, met with the licensee representatives listed in paragraph I at the conclusion of the inspection on October 2, 1987. At that time, the purpose and scope of the inspection were reviewed and the findings were presented.
