SEQUOYAH NUCLEAR PLANT - NRC PHYSICAL SECURITY BASELINE INSPECTION REPORT 05000327/2006007 AND 050003282006007
Dear Mr. Singer:
On September, 21 2006, the U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed a security baseline inspection at your Sequoyah Nuclear Plant. The enclosed report documents the inspection findings, which were discussed with Mr. R. Douet, and other members of your staff on September 21, 2006. A final telephone exit was conducted with Mr. D. Kulisek and other members of staff on October 17, 2006.
This inspection examined activities conducted under your license as they relate to and compliance with the Commissions rules and regulations and with the conditions of your license.
The inspector reviewed selected procedures and records, observed activities, and interviewed personnel.
This report documents one finding of very low security significance as determined by the Physical Protection Significance Determination Process. The deficiency was promptly corrected or compensated for, and the plant was in compliance with applicable physical protection and security requirements within the scope of this inspection before the inspector left the site.
The NRC is treating this violation as a non-cited violation (NCV) consistent with Section VI.A.1 of the NRC Enforcement Policy because of the very low security significance of the violation and because it was entered into your corrective action program. If you contest this non-cited violation, you should provide a response within 30 days of the date of this inspection report, with the basis for your denial, to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, ATTN: Document Control Desk, Washington DC 20555-001; with copies to the Regional Administrator Region II; the
