NRC ISFSI SECURITY INSPECTION REPORT 05000255/2010405(DNMS)
Dear Mr. Schwarz:
On March 10, 2010, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed a security
inspection of the Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installations (ISFSI) at the Palisades Nuclear
Plant, Covert, Michigan. The purpose of the inspection was to evaluate whether the protection
of the ISFSI was in compliance with Title 10 Code of Federal Regulation (CFR) Parts 72 and 73,
the Physical Security Plan (PSP), and NRC Orders EA-02-104, Interim Safeguards and
Security Compensatory Measures (ICMs) for Palisades Nuclear Plant, and EA-03-097,
Implementation of Additional Security Measures (ASMs) Associated with Access Authorization
for Palisades Nuclear Plant. In addition, the inspector verified the location of your instrument
calibrator which contained a radioactive source that you reported for inclusion into the National
Source Tracking System (NSTS). At the conclusion of the on-site inspection on February 25,
2010, the inspector discussed the inspection findings with Mr. Tom Kirwin, General Manager
Plant Operations, and members of his ISFSI operations, licensing, radiation protection, and
security staff. During a telephone exit meeting on March 10, 2010 (conducted after an in-office
review of additional information was completed regarding an issue identified during the on-site
inspection), the inspector discussed the inspection findings with Mr. Marty Frato, Security
Manager, and Ms. Barb Dotson, Licensing Technical Specialist.
Based on the results of this inspection, no findings of significance were identified.
In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390 of the NRCs Rules of Practice, a copy of this letter will be
