Dear Mr. Storz:

SUBJECT:

INSPECTION REPORT NOS. 50-272 AND 311/95-08 (REPLY)

This refers to your September 28, 1995, correspondence in response to our

letter, dated June 2, 1995, regarding Salem, Units 1 and 2.

This

correspondence dealt with our concern over the manner in which security

measures were implemented during the development and conduct of the annual

operator examinations in order to prevent examination compromise.

This

concern was identified durihg our evaluation of your licertsed operator

r~qualification program in accordance with NRC Inspection Manual Procedure

71001.

We have reviewed this matter in accordance.with NRC Inspection Manual

Procedure 92901, "Followup - Plant Operations."

We concur with your assessment of the root cause, which essentially involved a

procedure noncompliance issue due to overconfidence* by involved individuals

with respect to the security's form content and intent.

We will further

review the effectiveness of your planned corrective actions taken to prevent

reoccurrence during a future evaluation of your licensed operator

requalification .program.

We appreciate your cooperation.

Docket Nos. 50-272; 50-311/95-08
