SUBJECT:

PILGRIM NUCLEAR POWER STATION _NRC SECURITY INSPECTION REPORT NO. 05000293/2010402

Dear Mr. Bronson:

On May 14, 2010, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed a security baseline inspection at your Pilgrim Nuclear 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 May 14, 2010, with you and members of your staff.

The inspection examined activities conducted under your license as they relate to security and compliance with the Commission's rules and regulations and with the conditions of your license.

The inspectors reviewed selected procedures and records, observed activities, and interviewed personnel.

This report documents two findings of very low security Significance (i.e. Green as determined by the Baseline Security Significance Determination Process). One of these findings was determined to involve a violation of NRC requirements. The deficiencies were promptly corrected Qr compensated for, and the plant was in compliance with applicable physical protection and security requirements within the scope of the inspection before the inspectors left the site. The findings had cross-cutting aspects in the areas of human performance because complete, accurate, and up-to-date procedures were not provided H.2(c), and problem identification and resolution because operational experience (OE) was not used to change station procedures [P.2(b>>). Additionally, a licensee-identified violation which was determined to be of very low security significance is listed in this report. However, because of the very low safety significance and because they are entered into your corrective action program, the NRC is treating these violations as a non-cited Violation (NCV) consistent with Section VI.A.1 of the NRC Enforcement Policy.

When separated from its Enclosure, this document is DECONTROLLED.
