NRC-A. Cerne, Senior Resident Inspector The inspectors also interviewed other licensee employees and members of the security organizatio . MC 30703 - Exit Interview The inspectors met with the licensee representatives listed in paragraph 1 at the conclusion of the review on October 18, 1985. At that time, the purpose and scope of the review were discussed and the findings were presented. The licensee acknowledged the inspectors observations and

' finding At no time during this review was written material provided to the licensee by the inspector . MC 81020 - Management Effectiveness The inspectors observed that development of the security program is on schedule. Members of the Public Service of New Hampshire (PSNH) security organization staff were observed to be very knowledgeable of their respective areas of responsibility. These staff members are engaged in providing guidance and coordination in the development and implementation of the progra . MC 81022 - Security Organization The inspectors discussed the "Open Door Policy" and " Code of Conduct" for all members of the Security Organization. The licensee stated that there will be a grievance officer assigned to each security shift to serve the needs of the contract employees. Copies of the written policies were not available at this time. The inspectors stated that these policies will be reviewed during future preoperational security program review (Inspector Followup Item 50-443/85-27-01)

.

3 MC 81034 - Security Program Audit The inspectors observed that the licensee had hired a consultant, EBASCO Services Incorporated, to review the development of its security program. Discussions held by the inspectors with this consultant revealed that the licensee had progres<ed satisfactorily in its development of the security program. The inspectcts stated that a review will be conducted of all comments and recommendations made by EBASCO. (Inspector Followup Item 50-443/85-27-02) MC 81052 - Physical Barrier (Protected Area)

The inspectors observed that portions of the protected area barrier (PAB)

adjacent to the main guard house do not conform to the PAB description outlined in paragraph 4.2.1 of the Physical Security Plan. During dis-cussions with the. licensee on this matter, the inspectors also identified a similar problem on the main guard house roof. It appears that a portion of the main guard house that joins the protected area barrier is less than 18 feet in height and, therefore, requires intrusion detection and assessment capability. The licensee acknowledged this and stated that the barrier and assessment capability would be modified to conform to commit-

-ments in the Security Pla (Inspector Followup Item 50-443/85-27-03) MC 81054 - Physical Barriers (Vital Areas)

During a tour of vital areas with the licensee, the inspectors observed that air intake ports and cable penetrations in the Service Water Building (SWB) require additional reinforcement to ensure the integrity of the barrier In addition, during discussions on this matter, the licensee stated that an existing heavy steel, water tight, double door to the SWB was proposed for use as a normal personnel access control point. The inspectors stated that such a door would create serious problems, i.e.,

doors create nuisance alarms from being held open too long and therefore, unnecessary use of personnel for response and the potential for a degraded vital area barrier. The licensee acknowledged this and stated that alternate access control methods would be studied to address these problem (Inspector Followup Item 50-443/85-27-04) MC 81058 - Security System Power Supply

.

'

The inspectors observed that equipment for the security system's Uninter-ruptable Power Supply (UPS) was not properly secured. The licensee acknowledged this and stated that appropriate action to secure the equipment would be taken. (Inspector Followup Item 50-443/85-27-05)

W 4 MC 81070 - Access Control (Personnel)

The inspectors noted that the proposed configuration of the main access control facility for badge issuance and protected area (PA) access is inadequate in that the potential exists for unauthorized access. The licensee acknowledged this and stated that the configuration would be reviewed in an effort to correct the weakness. (Inspector Followup Item 50-443/85-27-06)

10. MC 81501 - Training and Qualification (T&Q) Plan The inspectors noted that the T&Q plan does not require the retention of written examinations after they have been graded. The inspectors reminded the licensee that all training records must be available for NRC review in order to demonstrate training and qualification in accordance with the T&Q plan at the time of the plant licensing for operation. The inspectors also discussed the need for written procedures to administratively control the training program. The licensee acknowledged these needs and stated that the records would be retained and procedures would be prepare (Inspector Followup Item 50-443/85-27-07)

As part of the review of training, the inspectors visited the Major Waldron Sportsmans Association, Inc., facilities in Barrington, New Hampshire and witnessed members of the licensee's contractor security force (Green Mountain Security) undergoing firearms qualification. The firearms. range was supervised and managed in a professional manner. No discrepancies were observe
