SUBJECT: COMANCHE PEAK STEAM ELECTRIC STATION - NRC SECURITY

BASELINE TEAM INSPECTION REPORT 05000445/2007402 AND

05000446/2007402.

Dear Mr. Blevins:

On January 25, 2007, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed a security

baseline inspection at your Comanche Peak Steam Electric Station Units 1 and 2. The

inspection covered one or more of the key attributes of the security cornerstone of the NRCs

Reactor Oversight Process. The enclosed inspection report documents the inspection results,

which were discussed on January 25, 2007, with Mr. R. Flores, Vice President Nuclear

Operations, and other members of your staff.

This inspection examined activities conducted under your license as they relate to security and

compliance with the Commissions rules and regulations and with the conditions of your license.

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

personnel.

Based on the results of this inspection, no findings of significance were identified. However, a

licensee-identified violation which was determined to be of very low safety significance is listed

in this report.

NRC is treating this violation as a noncited violation (NCV) consistent with Section VI.A.1 of the

NRC Enforcement Policy because of the very low security significance of the violation and

because it is entered into your corrective action program. If you contest this noncited violation,

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,
