Six members of California Plant Protection (CPP) security force contracted by General Electric Co. at Vallecitos hbclear Center,
' ye recently completed the additional escort training require-L,:nts per 10 CFR Part 73.37, "The Physical Protection of Irradia-ted Fuel in Transit".
Eight CPP individuals, including the instructor, have previously received 120 hours0.00139 days <br />0.0333 hours <br />1.984127e-4 weeks <br />4.566e-5 months <br /> of specialized nuclear training in accordance with 10 CFR Part 73.50, "The Physical Protection of Plants and Materials".
Five of these individuals have received additional training in Firemanship and Alam Response Tactics.
CPP has provided plant security at Vallecitos since 1974 and has an outstanding service record.
I have encle::ed for your infoma-tion and coments, copies of lesson plans and a list of those in-dividuals who have completed the escort training requirements per 10 CFR Part 73.37, as amended July 3, 1980.
We anticipate using CPP escorts on August 26, 1980 for a shipment of irradiated fuel from Sweden to Yallecitos. CPP escorts will be stationed at the Port of Oakland when the vessel docks and will escort the shipment to Vallecitos over the approved route. The CPP escorts will be unifomed, and amed with 38 caliber revolvers at all times during the shipment. The escorts will have hand-held single channel B1 2-way radios, and one escort will be located near a designated telephone at all times while at the dock. While in transit, CPP escorts will use the 2-way R1 radios to maintain com-munications with the shipment vehicle and each other. The shipment vehicle will have the specialized communications equipment, radio-telephone, CB radio and FM co=unicator used by escorts.
