COLUMBIA GENERATING STATION - NRC SECURITY INSPECTION REPORT 05000397/2012201

Dear Mr. Black:

On November 20, 2012, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed a security baseline inspection at the Columbia Generating Station. The inspection covered one or more of the key attributes of the security cornerstone of the NRCs Reactor Oversight Process. The enclosed inspection report documents the inspection results, which were discussed on November 20, 2012, and December 20, 2012, with M and other members of your staff.

The inspection examined activities conducted under your license as they relate to security 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.

Two NRC-identified findings of very-low security significance (i.e., Green as determined by the Baseline Security Significance Determination Process) were identified during this inspection.

The deficiencies were 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 inspectors left the site. The findings were determined to involve violations of NRC requirements. The NRC is treating these violations as non-cited violations (NCVs) consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the NRC Enforcement Policy.

If you contest the violations or significance of these NCVs, you should provide a response within 30 days of the date of this inspection report, with the basis for your denial, to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, ATTN: Document Control Desk, Washington DC 20555-0001; with copies to the Regional Administrator, Region IV; the Director, Office of Enforcement, U.S.

Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Washington, DC 20555-001; and the NRC Resident Inspector at Columbia Generating Station.

Two cross-cutting aspects were assigned to these findings, both were in the area of Human Performance because the licensee failed to conduct effectiveness reviews of security-significant decisions to verify the validity of the underlying assumptions and identify possible unintended
