SUBJECT:

INDIAN POINT ENERGY CENTER - NRC INVESTIGATION REPORT NO. 1-2007-034

Dear Mr. Pollock:

This letter refers to the investigation initiated by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commissions (NRC) Office of Investigations (OI) on June 7, 2007, at the Indian Point Energy Center (IPEC).

The investigation was initiated after you informed the NRC, on June 5, 2007, that a Shift Security Supervisor (SSS) may have deliberately submitted inaccurate requalification training records for two security officers on May 18, 2007. The OI investigation was initiated, in part, to determine whether the SSS had deliberately falsified the training records in violation of the IPEC Security Plan.

Based on the evidence developed during the OI investigation, the NRC confirmed that a former Security Lieutenant engaged in deliberate misconduct by deliberately failing to conduct the required training for two security officers on May 18, 2007, creating an inaccurate record of said training. Because you identified the actions of your employee, and because you implemented appropriate actions prior to relying upon the incomplete training and qualification of the two affected security officers, the NRC concluded that Entergy was not in violation of NRC requirements. The current NRC Enforcement Policy is included on the NRCs website at http://www.nrc.gov; select About NRC, Regulation, Enforcement, The Enforcement Policy.

You are not required to respond to this letter. However, if you choose to respond, you should provide your response to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, ATTN: Regional Administrator, Region I, and marked, Open by Addressee Only (EA-08-185), with a copy to the NRC Resident Inspector at the Indian Point Energy Center.

In accordance with 10CFR 2.390 of the NRCs Rules of Practice, a copy of this letter and your response, if you choose to provide one, will be available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public Document Room or from the NRCs document system (ADAMS) accessible from the NRC Website at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html. To the extent possible, your response, if you choose to provide one, should not include any personal privacy,
