Dear Mr. Franke:

On October 23, 2015, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed a security inspection at your Susquehanna Steam Electric Station, Units 1 & 2. On December 3, 2015, the NRC inspectors discussed the results of this inspection with Mr. Robert Franssen and other members of your staff. Inspectors documented the results of this inspection in the enclosed inspection report.

The NRC inspectors documented two findings of very low security significance (Green) in this report. These findings involved violations of the NRC requirements. The NRC is treating this violation as a non-cited violation (NCV) consistent with Section 2.3.2.a of the Enforcement Policy.

If you contest these violations or the significance of these NCVs, you should provide a response within 30 days of the date of this inspection report, with the basis for your denial, to the U.S.

If you disagree with a cross-cutting aspect assignment or a finding not associated with a regulatory requirement in this report, you should provide a response within 30 days of the date of this inspection report, with the basis for your disagreement, to the Regional Administrator, Region I; the Director, Office of Nuclear Security and Incident Response; and the NRC resident inspector at the Susquehanna Steam Electric Station, Units 1 & 2.
