Subjec t: Response to NRC Generic Letter 89-07, Power Reactor Safeguards Contingency Planning for Surface Vehicle Bombs i

This letter is in response to NRC Generic Letter No. 89-07, entitled "Pover Reactor Safeguards Contingency Planning for Surface Vehicle Bombs," dated

{

April 28, 1989.

Pursuant to 10CFR50.54 (f), the response to this Generic i

Letter was requested within 180 days from the date of receipt, May 9, 1989 confirming that safeguards contingency planning for Indian Point Units No. 1 and 2 includes short-term actions that could be taken to protect against attempted radiological sabotage involving a land vehicle bomb, f

Accordingly, we have modified the Safeguards Contingency Procedures for l

Indian Point Units 1 and 2 to include short-term actions to protect against such threats per the requirements of Generic Letter 89-07. The safety i

functions associated with preventing a significant radiological release are identified in the Vital Area Analysis (VAA) performed at Indian Point Units 1 and 2 on October 1, 1987. Using the VAA and the approaches identified in Generic Letter 89-07 ve have developed :ontingency procedures to respond to a threat of a land surface vehicle bomb. However, due to the existing features and characteristics of

+he site and environs, expedient implementation of the contingency procedures will require the installation of permanent barriers at various locations.

The additional permanent

[

barriers vill permit us to respond with temporary barriers at the designated choke points. The installation of the permanent barriers is scheduled to be completed by June, 1991.

r The threat response vill be predetermined and it vill be a coordinated and integrated effort with Indian Point Units 1 and 2 Security, the New York Power Authority Security organization at Indian Point Unit 3 and the Local Law Enforcement Authorities.
