SAFEGUARDS INFORMATION October 28, 2004 Mr. J. V. Parrish Chief Executive Order Energy Northwest Columbia Generating Station Snake River Warehouse North Power Plant Loop Richland, WA 99352
SUBJECT:
COLUMBIA GENERATING STATION - ADMINISTRATIVE CHANGE TO FACILITY OPERATING LICENSE IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE COMMISSION ORDER EA-03-086 REGARDING REVISED DESIGN BASIS THREAT (DBT) AND REVISIONS TO PHYSICAL SECURITY PLAN, TRAINING AND QUALIFICATIONS PLAN, AND SAFEGUARDS CONTINGENCY PLAN (TAC NO. MC2905)
Dear Mr. Parrish:
By letter dated April 29, 2004, Energy Northwest submitted a supplemental response in accordance with Order EA-03-086, the Order requiring compliance with the revised design basis threat, dated April 29, 2003, (DBT Order) for Columbia Generating Station.Section III.A of the Order requires licensees to revise their physical security plans (PSPs), training and qualification plans (T&Q Plans), and safeguards contingency plans (SCPs) to provide protection against the revised DBT set forth in Attachment 2 to the DBT Order. These revised plans, along with an implementation schedule, were required to be submitted to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC or the Commission) for review and approval no later than April 29, 2004.
In the revised security plans for Columbia Generating Station, you included information related to the independent spent fuel storage installation (ISFSI) co-located at the site. The DBT Order did not require this information to be included in the revised security plans for Columbia Generating Station. However, Order EA-02-104, dated October 16, 2002, required licensees to comply with the requirements, set forth in an attachment to the Order, that described the compensatory measures necessary to protect the ISFSI as a result of the heightened threat environment following the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.
NOTICE: Enclosure 2 contains Safeguards Information.
Upon separation from Enclosure 2, this letter and Enclosure 1 are DECONTROLLED.
SAFEGUARD INFORMATION Mr. Parrish On September 10, 2004, the NRC staff requested that you clarify whether the information provided in the revised security plans for Columbia Generating Station related to the ISFSI, modified the response you provided to Order EA-02-104. By letter dated September 28, 2004, you indicated that the PSP, T&Q Plan, and SCP submitted in response to Order EA-03-086 present no decrease in the effectiveness of the ISFSI-related Interim Compensatory Measures implemented in response to NRC Order EA-02-104. The effectiveness of these security provisions will continue to be the subject of NRC review and inspection.
The NRC staffs review of the PSP, SCP, and T&Q Plan submitted in your letter dated April 28, 2004, as supplemented on May 27, July 8, July 21, July 22, August 6, August 31, September 9, September 15, September 30, October 7, and October 13, 2004, has focused on ensuring the necessary programmatic elements are contained in these plans in order to provide high assurance that activities involving special nuclear material are not inimical to the common defense and security and do not constitute an unreasonable risk to the public health and safety.
The NRC staff has determined that these plans contain the necessary programmatic elements that, when effectively implemented, will provide the required high assurance that the Columbia Generating Station will be protected against the revised DBT. The NRC staff, therefore, approves the PSP, SCP, and T&Q Plan for Columbia Generating Station. However, ultimately, the effectiveness of these plans will be judged on your ability to meet regulatory requirements through facility implementing procedures and site practices. As such, your facility implementing procedures and practices will continue to be subject to future NRC review and inspection, including NRC-conducted force-on-force exercises.
In addition, the NRC staff noted that your PSP included alternatives to certain requirements of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) Section 73.55. In each case, the NRC staff found that the alternative measures provide an equivalent level of protection to that of the associated requirement and meet the high assurance objective of 10 CFR 73.55(a). The NRC staff, therefore, approves the alternatives shown in the table below. The NRC staffs evaluation is discussed further in the enclosed Safety Evaluation (SE).
Approved Alternatives to the Requirements of 10 CFR Part 73 PSP Alternative to SE Section Section 10 CFR Description 3.6.2 6.2 73.55(c)(3) Isolation Zone 3.9.4.3 9.4.3 73.55(d)(4) Protected Area (PA) vehicle search requirements 3.9.4.4 9.4.4 73.55(d)(1) PA personnel search requirements 3.9.5.2 9.5 73.55(d)(1) PA access control requirements 73.55(d)(4) 3.10.1 10.1 73.55(c)(5) PA illumination requirements
3.13.1 14.1 73.55(c)(1) Temporary reclassification of Vital 73.55(d)(7)(i)(B) Areas to PA status (devitalization)
Mr. Parrish Finally, consistent with Order EA-03-086, conforming administrative license changes to Facility Operating Licenses (FOLs) are required to ensure implementation of the DBT Order requirements. Therefore, an administrative license change to FOL No. NPF-21 is being made to incorporate the reference to the revised required by the DBT Order. This change complies with the standards and requirements of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended, and the Commission's rules and regulations set forth in 10 CFR Chapter I.
Please replace the enclosed page to your FOL as indicated in the Enclosure.
A copy of our SE (designated as Safeguards Information), is also enclosed.

The issuance of this administrative license change will not be inimical to the common defense and security or to the health and safety of the public; and E. The issuance of this administrative license change is in accordance with 10 CFR Part 51 of the Commission's regulations and all applicable requirements have been satisfied.
