REPORT 05000395/2017201

Dear Mr. Lippard:

On February 9, 2017, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed a security

inspection at the Virgil C. Summer Nuclear Station. NRC inspectors discussed results of this

inspection with you and other members of your staff. The results of this inspection are

documented in the enclosed inspection report.

NRC inspectors documented two findings of very low security significance (Green) in this report.

These findings involved a violation of NRC requirements. The NRC is treating these violations

as non-cited violations (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.

Nuclear Regulatory Commission, ATTN: Document Control Desk, Washington DC 20555-0001;

with copies to the Regional Administrator, Region II; the Director, Office of Nuclear Security and

Incident Response; the Director, Office of Enforcement; and the NRC resident inspector at the

Virgil C. Summer Nuclear Station.

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 U.S. Nuclear Regulatory

Commission, ATTN: Document Control Desk, Washington, DC 20555-0001; with copies to the

Regional Administrator, Region II; the Director, Office of Nuclear Security, and Incident

Response; and the NRC resident inspector at the Virgil C. Summer Nuclear Station.
