Gentlemen:
SUBJECT:
(NRC INSPECTION REPORT NO. 50-261/88-32)
This refers to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC)
inspection conducted by
J. D. Ennis at the H. B. Robinson plant on November 2-3, 1988. The inspection
included a review of the circumstances surrounding a vital area access control
problem discovered and reported by the licensee on October 28,
1988.
The
report documenting this inspectionwas sent to you by letter dated November 16,
1988. As a result of this inspection, a sfgnificant failure to comply with NRC
regulatory requirements was identified, and accordingly, NRC concerns relative
to the inspection findings were discussed in an Enforcement Conference held on
December 8, 1988.
The letter summarizing this conference was sent to you on
December 20, 1988. The violation described in the enclosed Notice of Violation
involved a failure to provide adequate vital area access control.
The events
or circumstance that resulted in this violation included the failure of a
member of the security organization to remain alert and attentive to duty while
posted at an open vital area portal.
The plant was at power operating levels
at the time of the event.
In accordance with the "General
Statement of Policy and Procedure for NRC
Enforcement Actions," 10 CFR Part 2, Appendix C (1988), the violation described
in the enclosed Notice has been classified as a Severity Level IV violation.
While the failure of a security officer to perform assigned duties is of
significant concern, the unpredictability of the failure, in this particular
case, led to the categorization of the event as a Severity Level IV violation.
You are required to respond to this letter and the enclosed Notice and should
follow the instructions specified therein when preparing your response.
In
your response,
you should document the specific actions taken and any
additional actions you plan to prevent recurrence.
After reviewing your
response to this Notice, including your proposed corrective actions and the
results of future inspections, the NRC will determine whether further NRC
enforcement action is necessary to ensure compliance with NRC regulatory
requirements.
