SUMMARY
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) continued monitoring the licensees performance by conducting a security baseline inspection at Columbia Generating Station, in accordance with the Reactor Oversight Process. The Reactor Oversight Process is the NRCs program for overseeing the safe operation of commercial nuclear power reactors. Refer to https://www.nrc.gov/reactors/operating/oversight.html for more information. A licensee-identified non-cited violation is documented in report section: 71130.0
List of Findings and Violations
No findings or violations of more than minor significance were identified.
Additional Tracking Items

INSPECTION SCOPES
Inspections were conducted using the appropriate portions of the inspection procedures (IPs) in effect at the beginning of the inspection unless otherwise noted. Currently approved IPs with their attached revision histories are located on the public website at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/doc-collections/insp-manual/inspection-procedure/index.html. Samples were declared complete when the IP requirements most appropriate to the inspection activity were met consistent with Inspection Manual Chapter (IMC) 2201, Security Inspection Program for Commercial Nuclear Power Reactors. The inspectors reviewed selected procedures and records, observed activities, and interviewed personnel to assess licensee performance and compliance with Commission rules and regulations, license conditions, site procedures, and standards.

INSPECTION RESULTS
Licensee-Identified Non-Cited Violation 71130.08 This violation of very low safety significance was identified by the licensee and has been entered into the licensee corrective action program and is being treated as a non-cited violation, consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the Enforcement Policy.
Violation: While reviewing Action Request 425019 the inspector noted that Quality Assurance (QA) had identified regulatory requirements being implemented in FFDI-1.2 Drug Chemical Testing and Processing.
Title 10, 26.27(c) requires, in part, that each licensee shall prepare, implement, and maintain written procedures that describe the methods to be used in implementing the FFD policy and the requirements of this part. Contrary to this requirement, from January 1, 2009 to September 7, 2021, the licensee did not prepare, implement, and maintain written procedures to be used in implementing the requirements of part 26. Specifically, regulatory requirements according to 26.31(b) and 26.85(a)(b) and
- (c) were implemented in lower tier document FFDI 1.2, Drug Chemical Testing and Processing, Rev 27.
Significance/Severity: Green. When processed through the PPSDP this issue screened out as 1 point, 0-6 being green under the Physical Protection Severity Determination Process.
