-2-DOCUMENT CONTAINS SAFEGUARDS INFORNATION station operators were inconsistent when logging alarm response information into the computer (Section 1.2).
Testing records for detection aids and access control equipment were on
file and completed. However, the procedure used to conduct the tests did not include specifics to ensure that all security personnel conducting tests do'so in a uniform manner that challenges the equipment (Section 1.3).
Compensatory measures were being implemented for degraded security
equipment as required by the NRC-approved Physical Security Plan.
However, a program weakness was identified in that alarm station operators continue to demonstrate a lack of aggressiveness in implementing compensatory measures for degraded cameras (Section.1.4).
A test of the emergency power supply demonstrated that the security
diesel was performing as designed (Section 1.5).
The security equipment required frequent repairs, and compensatory-
posting for some equipment had become the normal routine rather than the exception.
Overtime was controlled, and security officers were receiving appropriate time off (Section 1.6).
Problems continue with _ the quality of the video cameras, the monitors,
and the adjustment of the monitors by alarm station operators. Some alarm station operators continue to operate with video monitors out of adjustment during day and/or nighttime operation (Section 1.7).
Required training had been conducted in accordance with the security
program plans. However, lesson plan instructions being provided to the security officers for many of the crucial tasks were too general.
Training facilities were very good and weapons training was conducted in a very professional and competent manner (Section 1.8).

Inspection Followup Item 498/9323-01; 499/9323-01 was opened
(Section 1.4).
