SUBJECT:

SUSQUEHANNA STEAM ELECTRIC STATION - NRC INSPECTION REPORT 50-387/01-11, 50-388/01-11

Dear Mr. Byram:

On December 29, 2001, the NRC completed an inspection at your Susquehanna Steam Electric Station Units 1 and 2. The enclosed report documents the inspection findings which were discussed on January 3, 2002, with Mr. B. Shriver, Vice President - Nuclear Site Operations, and other members of your staff.

This inspection examined activities conducted under your license as they relate to safety and compliance with the Commissions rules and regulations and with the conditions of your license.

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

No findings of significance were identified.

Since September 11, 2001, the Susquehanna Steam Electric Station has assumed a heightened level of security based on a series of threat advisories issued by the NRC.

Although the NRC is not aware of any specific threat against nuclear facilities, the heightened level of security was recommended for all nuclear power plants and is being maintained due to the uncertainty about the possibility of additional terrorist attacks. The steps recommended by the NRC include increased patrols, augmented security forces and capabilities, additional security posts, heightened coordination with local law enforcement and military authorities, and limited access of personnel and vehicles to the site.

The NRC continues to interact with the Intelligence Community and to communicate information to PPL Susquehanna, LLC. In addition, the NRC has monitored maintenance and other activities which could relate to the site's security posture.

Mr. Robert In accordance with 10 CFR 2.790 of the NRC's "Rules of Practice," a copy of this letter and its enclosure will be available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public Document Room or from the Publically Available Records (PARS) component of NRCs document system (ADAMS). ADAMS is accessible from the NRC Web site at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm.html (The Public Electronic Reading Room).

If you have any questions please contact me at 610-337-5209.

Sincerely,

/RA/
