The foregoing examples are for illustration and do not represent the only inaccuracies that were found bj the inspectors.
No failures to comply with NRC regulations or PSP com.mitment: were identified by the inspectors as a result of these inaccuracies and security personnel who were i.itervieaed were knowlodgeable of current practices.
The effective-ness of the licensee's system, management everview and audit program, for maintaining the PSP implementing procedures current was questioned.
The licensee stated that the matter would be reviewed and that corrective actions would be taken as necessary.
Tnis is an unresolved item (88-19-01).
3.
Cosensatory Heasureeents (81060 The inspectors reviewed the licensee's use of compensatory measures to ase.ertain whether they were adequate and appropriate for their intended function.
The inspectors found that, in general, the compensatory measures implemented by the licensee were adequate.
However, as discussed in Details, Paragraph 2, the licensee's implementing procedure 1-
.
.:
.
.
for compensatory measures is not sufficiently descriptive to ensure that consistent and timely actions are taken. This was. illustrated by the inspectors during their follow-up of a licensee event report, as discussed in Details, Paragraph 4.
4.
Records and Reports (81038)
The inspectors reviewed Licensee Event Report 88-501-00 dated July 12, 1988 which dealt with a degradation of the intrusion detection and access control systems. According to the report, on June 12, at 8:21 p.m., the licensee experienced significant protected area 't.
, ion detection and access coi) trol degradation for a period of 35 minutes.
Security personnel, on-site at the start of the event, provided compen-satory action. All protected area intrusion detection zones, protected area access points and vital area access points were affected. The report states that 19 security personnel were on-site and available to provide compensatory actions, e
In following up on the event, the inspectors discussed it with the senior resident inspector, who stated that, shortly after the event, licensee security management advised him that proper comHnsato,y measures were not taken within 10 minutes of the event, as required by the NRC.
r During this inspection, security management advised the security inspectors that procer compensatory measures had been taken within 10 minutes.
However, the security inspectors were not able to validate this later position, since no records could be found that documented either the time that compensatory measures were taken or what measures were actually taken. When questioned by the inspectors, security personnel could not clearly recall all the details of the event.
The licensee was advised that aeditional documentation of the event would be required to reflect t
i what actions were taken and when.
If upon subseouent review it is dete mined that the inforn.ation provided to the NRC in the 30-day event report is incorrect, a corrected, revised report would be required.
Tnis is an unresolved item (88-19-02).

Maintenance personnel appeared to be responsive to security maintenance needs in that equipment is repaired in a timely fashion and documentation of equipment testing performed is clear and readily retrievable.
No discrepancies were identified.
6.
Locks, Keys, and Combinations (81046)
The inspectors reviewed the licensee's program for control and protection of locks, keys, and combinations to verify that it was in conformance with the PSP.
- The inspector found the following conditions were in accordance with the PSP:
locks, keys, combinations, and related equipment used to control access to the PA and VAs were protected and controlled to reduce the possibility of compromise; locks, and related hardware, were of a substantial construction and were properly installed and maintained to afford penetration resistance; and procedures existed for controlling access to keys for locks used to protect SNM.
No discrepancies were identified.
7.
Physical Barriers - Protected Area (81052)
The inspectors reviewed the PA physical barriers and isolation zones for confo mance with the PSP and to determine whether they were adequate and app apriate for their intended function by touring them several times during the inspection.

This failure to provide positive personnel and material access control is a violation of regulatory requirements (88-19-03) and is also indicative of poor supervisory oversight of the guard force in that supervisors, on rounds, should have recognized that the guards posted at this location could not and were not carrying out their post duties.
10.
AccessControl-Packages (81072}
Observation by the inspectors of the ::ontrol of packages entering the protected area confirmed that the licensee conducts searches and identifies materials prior to entry.
Observation of ea:h activity at the persornel access portal and vehicle gate in the protected area pe*irreter, on several occasions during the insper. tion, indicated that effective searches were being performed, and sontrol of materials into the protected areas was appropriately maintained.
No discrepancies were identified, 11.
Access Control - Vehicles (81074)
Cbservation of vehicle access control activities at the prieary vehicle access gate to the protected area, by the inspectors, determined that vehicles are properly searched for contraband prior to being granted access to the protected area.
Vehicles entering the protected area, with the exception of licensee designated vehicles, were observed to be escorted by a member of the security force.
No discrepancies were identified.
