The attachment to this letter is considered exempt from public disclosure according to 10 CFR Section 2.790. It is requested that this document not be placed in the Public Document Room.

ryy; 9,' ~ ~ ~ '.y, 10 CFR 2.790(d) Information Exempt From Public Eisclosure Attachment Response to IE Inspection Report No. 79-18 Following the date of this inspection by Messrs. J. R. Creed and C. A. Schwan, Wisconsin Public Service Corporation contracted with a new security services contractor for security activities at the Kewaunee Nuclear Power Plant. The r.cw security contractor has more experience at nuclear power plants and better management and training capabilities than the previous agency.

Although many members of the Kewaunce Plant security guard force transferred companies and remain on the force at Kewaunee, all personnel have received medical examinations from the new contractor that satisfy all requirements.

~

Additionally, the re-emphasis placed on job performance, that comes with such a enange in contractors, is expected to improve the overall guard force p erformance.

The deficiency item on E-field operational checks has been corrected by incorporating a daily E-field zone walk-up into the normal protected area patrol scheduling.
