SUBJECT:

SEABROOK STATION, UNIT 1 - NRC SECURIry INSPECTION REPORT 05000443/2010404

Dear Mr. Freeman:

On May 16,2011, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed a focused Problem ldentification and Resolution inspection at your Seabrook Station Unit 1. The inspection covered one or more of the key attributes of the security cornerstone of the NRC's Reactor Oversight Process. The enclosed inspection report documents the inspection results, which were disCussed on May 16, 2011, with you and other members of your staff.

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

This report documents one self-revealing finding of very low security significance (i.e., Green as determined by the Baseline Security Significance Determination Process (BSSDP)). 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 the inspection before the inspector left the site. The inspector concluded that the finding did not have a cross-cutting aspect, because the primary contributing cause of the finding was not reflective of present performance.

Enclosure contains Sensitive Unclassified Non-Safeguards Information. When separated from enclosure, the transmittal document is decontrolled.
