SUBJECT:

SHEARON HARRIS NUCLEAR POWER PLANT - NRC SECURITY INSPECTION REPORT 05000400/2008401

Dear Mr. Duncan:

On March 20, 2008, the U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed a security baseline inspection at your Shearon Harris Nuclear Power Plant, Unit 1. The inspection covered one or more of the key attributes of the security cornerstone of the NRC=s Reactor Oversight Process. Portions of the inspection were conducted at the corporate office from January 7 through 10, 2008. The enclosed report documents the inspection results, which were discussed with Mr. C. Burton, Director Site Operations, and other members of your staff on March 20, 2008. A re-exit was conducted with Mr. Dave Corlett and Mr. Mark Findley on April 28, 2008, to communicate the results of the NRC Security Findings and Review Panel (SFRP).

This inspection examined activities conducted under your license as they relate to security and compliance with the Commission=s rules and regulations and with the conditions of your license.

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

This report documents one finding of very low security significance (i.e., Green as determined by the Physical Protection Significance Determination Process). The deficiency was 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 finding had a cross-cutting aspect in the area of Problem Identification and Resolution because the licensee did not thoroughly evaluate the problem such that the resolution addressed causes and extent of condition, as necessary. CP&L 2 Additionally, licensee-identified violations which were determined to be of very low safety significance are listed in this report. However, because of the very low safety significance and because they are entered into your corrective action program, the NRC is treating these violations as non-cited violations (NCVs) consistent with Section VI.A.1 of the NRC Enforcement Policy. If you contest these non-cited violation(s), you should provide a response within 30 days of the date of this inspection report, with the basis for your denial, to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, ATTN.: Document Control Desk, Washington DC 20555-0001; with copies to the Regional Administrator Region II; the Director, Office of Enforcement, United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Washington, DC 20555-0001; and the NRC Resident Inspector at the Shearon Harris Nuclear Plant.

In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390 of the NRC's "Rules of Practice," a copy of this letter will be available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public Document Room or from the Publicly Available Records (PARS) component of NRC's document system, ADAMS.

ADAMS is accessible from the NRC Website at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html (the Public Electronic Reading Room). However, because of the security-related concerns contained in the enclosure, and in accordance with 10 CFR 2.390, a copy of this letter=s enclosure will not be available for public inspection.

In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390(b)(1)(ii), the NRC is waiving the affidavit requirements for your response, if any. This practice will ensure that your response will not be made available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public Document Room or from the NRC=s document system, ADAMS. If Safeguards Information is necessary to provide an acceptable response, please provide the level of protection described in 10 CFR 73.21. Otherwise, mark your entire response ASecurity Related Information-Withhold Under 10 CFR 2.390" and follow the instructions for withholding in 10 CFR 2.390 (b)(1).

Sincerely,

/RA./
