Gentlemen:
This refers to the inspection conducted by Mr. James Kelly of this office
during the period June 13-17, 1988, of activities authorized by NRC Operating
License NPF-47 for River Bend Station, and to the discussion of our findings
with you and other members of your staff at the conclusion of the inspection.
The NRC inspection covered certain areas of your physical security program.
Within these areas, the inspection consisted of selective examination of
procedures and representative records, interviews with personnel, and
observations by the NRC inspector.
The areas inspected and the inspection
findings are documented in the enclosed inspection report.
During this inspection, it was found that certain of your activities were in
violation of NRC requirements.
Consequently, you are required to respond to
this violation, in writing, in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.201
of the NRC's "Rules of Practice," Part 2, Title 10, Code of Federal
Regulations. Your response should be based on the specifics contained in the
Notice of Violation enclosed with this letter.
In addition to the findings identified in this report, there are certain other
matters that need to be brought to your attention for your investigation and
evaluation.
These matters will be supplied to you in some detail in a separate
transmittal. Our concerns with regard to these matters are presently focused
on the apparent lack of candor exhibited by your staff when the NRC inspector
pursued allegations, reviews of internal investigations, and records related to
your failure to report certain security events. We want to be assured that
events are properly reported and that there are no proprietary records of
investigations being withheld from NRC review. We will review your evaluation
co
of these matters at a later date.
to o
So$
We have also examined actions you have taken with respect to previously
$8
identified inspection findings. The status of these items is identified in
gg
paragraph 2.
