Dear Mr. Kingsley:
E"
On October 19,1998, the NRC completed an inspection at your Braidwood Nuclear Generating
Plant reactor facility. The onsite inspection was conducted between October 13-19,1998. The
enclosed report presents the results of that inspection.
Areas examined within your security program are identified in the report. Within those areas,
the inspection consisted of a selective examination of procedures and representative records,
observation of performance, and interviews with staff. The objective of the inspection effort was
to determine whether activities authorized by the license were conducted safely and in
accordance with NRC requirements.
One violation of NRC requirements was identified, as specified in the enclosed Notice of
Violation (Notice). The violation concemed three occasions between August 26 and October 2,
1998, when security officers were inattentive to duty (asleep). The NRC has concluded that
information regarding the reason for the violation, the corrective actions taken and planned to
prevent recurrence is already adequately addressed on the docket in Commonwealth Edison
l
'
letter dated February 4,1998; Subject: " Reply To Violation" for Inspection Reports 50-456/
97020; 50-457/97020, dated January 7,1998. Therefore, you are not required to respond to
'
this letter unless the description therein does not accurately reflect your corrective actions or
'~}g/'
f
your position. In that case, or if you choose to provide additional information, you should follow -
the instructions specified in the enclosed notice.
The overall management and utilization of the security force in support of the Steam Generator
Replacement Project was very good. The overtime for the security force and turnover rate were
demanding, but managed well. Loggable security incidents were not excessive, considering the
number of contractors onsite for the project, which is indicative of a workforce aware of their
security responsibilities. We are monitoring your investigation of a fitness-for-duty matter.
