Security Organization and Program i

The licensee's Site Security Supervisor informed the inspector that the former Chief of the contract security force resigned for personal and health reasons and was replaced on January 15, 1987 by a senior member of the on-site security force who is very knowledgeable of the Maine Yankee security program.

The inspector verified that the individual was qualified and was performing his duties as described in the NRC-approved

'j physical security plan.

The inspector determined that 26 ' individuals lef t the contract security l

force since February 5,1986.

Twenty lef t for other employment opportunities, three expressed dissatisfaction with the job, two were terminated for cause, and one retired.

i j

The_ inspector reviewed the licensee's policy with regard to security force l

work schedules for the maintenance and refueling outage that began on March 23, 1987. The inspector found that the hours of work for the j

.,

security force were changed from an 8 hour9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> shift to a 12 hour1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> shift, with j

. officer had worked more than 60 hours6.944444e-4 days <br />0.0167 hours <br />9.920635e-5 weeks <br />2.283e-5 months <br /> in any week during the outage.
