SUBJECT:

SHEARON HARRIS NUCLEAR POWER PLANT - NRC PHYSICAL SECURITY PROBLEM IDENTIFICATION AND RESOLUTION INSPECTION REPORT 05000400/2007404

Dear Mr. Duncan:

On August 17, the U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed a Problem Identification and Resolution inspection at the Shearon Harris Nuclear Power Plant. The enclosed report documents the security-related inspection results, which were discussed with you and other members of your staff. Additionally, a telephone re-exit was conducted with Mr. M. Findley on September 11, 2007.

This inspection examined activities conducted under your license as they relate to problem and identification of security related issues, compliance with the Commissions rules and regulations and conditions of your license. Within these areas, the inspection involved examination of selected procedures and representative records, observations of activities, and interviews with personnel. Inspection Report 05000400/2007006, dated September 14, 2007, documents the non-security results of the Problem Identification and Resolution inspection.

On the basis of the sample selected for review, the team concluded that in general, problems were properly identified, evaluated, and corrected. This report documents one finding a finding of very low security significance (i.e., Green as determined by the Physical Protection Significance Determination Process). Additionally, one licensee-identified violation which was determined to be of very low security significance is listed in this report. 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.
