MC 30703 - Exit Interview The inspector met with the individuals listed in paragraph 1 at the con-clusion of the inspection on August 6, 1986, and reviewed the purpose and scope of the inspection and presented the inspection findings.

MC 92701 - Inspector Followup on the Status of Previously Identified Security Program Concerns On May 29, 1986, NRC Region I transmitted to Boston Edison (BECo) the results of Inspection No. 50-293/86-08. During that inspection, signifi-cant security program concerns were identified.
These concerns were summarized in an enclosure to the May 29, 1986 letter that transmitted the inspection report. During meetings in Region I on June 12, 1986, and July 24, 1986, the licensee provided schedules for addressing the concerns.
However, completion dates for correcting problems were not provided be-cause most of the work was in the evaluation phase, and the scope of the work had not been established.
During this inspection, the inspector determined that the problem with the protected area perimeter lighting had been corrected and the lighting was in compliance with regulatory require-i ments. The other problems were still in various stages of evaluation to determine the scope of the work required.
The licensee agreed, during
,
I this inspection, to provide the NRC with a schedule identifying completion dates for the engineering evaluations on the remaining security hardware problems on or before August 18, 1986.

MC 927068 - Independent Inspection - Review of Security Preparations for the Current Outage The licensee is currently in an extended outage. The inspector reviewed the actions initiated by BECo to provide security support to the outage.
These actions included the following:
i
r a
.
The guard force contractor has been authorized to increase the guard
force by 15 positions.
A representative of the security organization is attending outage
meetings to assess the impact of outage work on security operations.
The security department has provided outage management w'ilh all open
security maintenance requests ~ in order to have them factored into the outage schedule.
Increased on site security management is being provided by four cor-
porate Security Shift Supervisors who were recently hired. The Shift Supervisors are scheduled to provide around-the-clock coverage of the security program.
5.
MC 92710 - Initial Implementation of Strike Plan On June 30, 1986, the contract security force went on strike. The poten-tial for a strike had been anticipated and a contingency guard force that had been previously trained in the Pilgrim Security Training and Qualifi-cation Plan was on site.
The inspector reviewed the training and qual-ification records for each member of the contingency force and found them to be complete.
The licensee had conducted a review of the security contractor's plan for.the use of the contirgency force prior to the strike and a review of their performance after the strike. The inspector re-viewed documentation of these reviews and noted no discrepancies. The strike ended on July 1,1986.
There were no problems identified with the transition from the regular guard force to the contingency force or from the contingency force back to the regular guard force.
6.
MC 927068 - Independent Inspection Review of Security Force Overtime During the week of July 20, 1986, the resident inspector conducted a re-view of overtime worked by members of the contract security force. The results of this review disclosed that members'of the security force were working overtime in excess of the contractual guidelines.
The overtime was being monitored by the licensee, however, because of an ineffective method of tracking, the guidelines were being exceeded.
The licensee took immediate action to correct the deficiency and to assure overtime guide-lines would be met in the future. At the time of this inspection, the revised method had been in effect for approximately a week and appeared to l
be working. Monitoring of security force overtime will be conducted
'
periodically during future resident and specialist inspections.
