support and administration building.
I 2.2 ElaDS The inspectors determined through a review of proposed changes to the NRC-
,
approved Security Plan (the Plan) that the changes would not decrease the effectiveness of the Plan. Licensee management stated its intent to submit the Plan changes to the NRC in the near future.

2.3 Audits The inspectors reviewed the report of the licensee's annual Quality Assurance
l Audit (No. 811) of the security program, which was conducted from May 26 -
l June 16,' 1993. The inspectors verified that the audit had been planned and carried out in accordance with the Plan. During the audit, one deviation / event
'
report (DER) and fourteen recommendations 'were written.
The inspectors reviewed the DER and recommendations and concluded that they were not
,
!
indicative of programmatic weaknesses. The audit was very comprehensive in i
scope and the results were reported to the appropriate level of management. The l
auditors had devised a checklist based on an audit matrix which contained security I
requirements in accordance with the licensee's Plan and security procedures. The
inspectors determined, by a review of the corrective actions taken in response to I
the DER, that the identified concern was adequately addressed. No deficiencies were noted by the inspectors.
j Additionally, the inspectors reviewed the report of the licensee's annual Quality i
Assurance Audit of the fitness-for-duty (FFD) program, No. 92-44, which was conducted on November 30 to December 4,1992 and February 24 and 25,1993.
No findings or recommendations were issued as a result of the audit. On September 21 and 22,1993, the inspectors reviewed licensee FFD procedures,
,
l permanent record books, and records of personnel who tested confirmed-positive during random and for-cause testing during 1992 to the present. The inspectors determined that all applicable documentation was readily available, procedures
,
!
were well written and satisfied the in ent of the Rule, and the program was being effectively managed. No deficiencies were noted.

4.0 Protected and Vital Area Physical Barrier. Detection and Assesement Aids i
4.1 Protected Area (PA) Barrier -
The inspectors conducted a physical inspection of the PA barrier on :
September 20,1993. The inspectors determined by observation that the barrier was installed and maintained as described in the NRC-approved Plan.
i 4.2 Protected Area Detetion Aids
!
The inspectors observed the perimeter detection aids on September 20,1993, and
l
^ determined that they were installed, maintained and operated as committed to in l
the Plan. On September 21,1993, the inspectors observed licensee testing of 20
!
intrusion detection system zones at 46 locations. All test results were satisfactory l
with no adjustments required.
I
,
l-4.3 Protected Area and Isolation Zone Lichting The inspectors conducted a PA and isolation zone lighting survey on September 21,- 1993, from approximately 8:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m., accompanied by a licensee security supervisor. The inspectors determined by observation and l
by the use of the licensee's calibrated light meter that the station's lighting system
'
was very effective and that the isolation zones were adequately maintained to
'
permit observation of activities on both sides of the PA barrier.
4.4 Assessment Aids The inspectors observed the PA perimeter assessment aids during day and night periods and' determined that they were installed, maintained and opemted as committed to in the Plan. The inspectors also noted that the licensee is in the process of developing an action plan for the implementation of a major CCTV upgrade to be completed by 1996. This issue will be reviewed during subsequent inspections.
4.5 Vital Area (VA) Barriers The inspectors conducted a physical inspection of selected VA barriers on September 22, 1993. The inspectors determined by observation that the VA barriers were installed and maintained as described in the Plan.
4.6 Vital Area Detection Aids The inspectors observed licensee testing of 18 VA detection aids on September 23,1993, from approximately 8:30 a.m. - 11:00 a.m. One detection
_

.
'
aid tested unsatisfactorily. The inspectors verified that the detection aid tested satisfactorily during the previous periodic functional test.
The licensee implemented immediate corrective actions which included the establishment of-compensatory measures in the area. Repair and retesting of the detection aid was completed within one hour of the time of discovery.
In summary, the licensee's PA and VA physical barriers detection, and assessment aids satisfied NRC requirements.
5.0 Protected and Vital Areas Access Control of Personnel. Packanes and Vehicles 5.1 Personnel Access Control The inspectors determined that the licensee was exercising positive control over personnel access tc the PA and VAs. This determination was based on the following:
5.1.1 The inspectors verified that personnel were properly identified and authorization was checked prior to issuance of badges and key cards.
5.1.2 The inspectors verified that the licensee was implementing a search program for firearms, explosives, incendiary devices and other unauthorized materials as committed to in the Plan. The inspectors observed both plant and visitor personnel access processing during peak and off-peak traffic periods on September 21 and 23,1993.
The inspectors also interviewed members of the security force and licensee security staff about personnel access procedures.
5.1.3 The inspectors determined, by observation, that individuals in the PA and VAs displayed their badges as required.
5.1.4 The inspectors verified that the licensee had escort procedures for visitors into the PA and VAs.
5.2 Egekare and Material Access Control The inspectors determined that the licensee was exercising positive control of packages and materials that were brought into the PA through the warehouse and main access portal. The inspectors reviewed the package and material control procedures and found that they were consistent with commitments in the Plan.
The inspectors also observed package and material processing and interviewed l
members of the security force and the licensee's security staff about package and material control procedures.

5.3 Vehicle Access Control The inspectors determined t nat the licensee properly controls vehicle access to the PA. The inspectors deterriined that vehicles were properly authorized prior to L
being allowed to enter the PA, with identification verified.by a security force
,
member (SFM). The inspectors also reviewed the vehicle search procedures and l
observed that at least two SFM's control vehicle access at the main vehicle access portal. These procedures were consistent with the commitments in the Plan. On
!
September 21 and 23,1993, the inspectors observed vehicle searches and
[
interviewed members of the security force and the licensee's security staff about vehicle search procedures.
The' inspectors determined that they were j
knowledgeable of the requirements.
In summary, the licensee had effective programs which satisfied NRC requirements for PA and VA control of personnel, packages, and vehicles.
,
6.0 Alarm Stations and Communications The inspectors observed the operations in the Central Alarm Station (CAS) and Secondary Alarm Station (SAS) and determined they were maintained and operated as l
committed to in the Plan. CAS and SAS operators were interviewed by the inspectors
and found to be knowledgeable of their duties and responsibilities. The inspectors verified that the CAS and SAS did not require any operational activities that would interfere with the assessment and response functions. The inspectors verified that the licensee had communications with locallaw enforcement agencies as committed to in the Plan. No deficiencies were noted.
7.0 Testine. Maintenance and Comnensatory Measures The inspectors determined that the licensee was conducting testing and maintaining security systems and equipment as committed to in the Plan. This determination was
{
based upon a review of the test records for security equipment. The station provides instrumentation and controls (I&C) technicians who are specifically assigned to maintain j
security equipment. A review of these records indicated repairs are being comp'eted in l
a timely manner and that a prioritization schedule is assigned to each work request. The inspectors also reviewed the use of compensatory measures and security force overtime and found them to be minimal, largely due to the efforts and prompt response of the maintenance group.
Additionally, the inspectors met with the I&C Supervisor and reviewed the newly developed and implemented preventive maintenance program. Based on a review of the security equipment maintenance schedules and applicable procedures, and discussions
,. -

!
with licensee management, it appeared that the program will further enhance the effectiveness of the maintenance program. No deficiencies were noted.
8.0 Security Trainine and Oualification The inspectors randomly selected and reviewed training and qualification records for
!
eight security force members (SFMs).
The physical qualification and firearms
'
requalifications records were inspected for armed and unarmed SFMs and security supervisors.
The inspectors determined that the training had been conducted in accordance with the security training and qualification (T&Q) plan and that it was properly documented.
I Several SFMs were interviewed to determine if they possessed the requisite knowledge l
and ability to carry out their assigned duties. The interview results indicated that they were professional and knowledgeable of the job requirements. No deficiencies were
!
'noted.
