Document Control Desk Washington, D.C. 20555 NRC DOCKETS 50-321,50-366 OPERATING LICENSES DPR-57, NPF-5 EDWIN I. HATCH NUCLEAR PLAN UNITS 1, 2 INSPECTION REPORT 86-37 Gentlemen:
This letter is in response to the Notice of Violation cited in Inspection Report Nos. 50-321/86-37 and 50-366/86-37, dated December 17, 1986.
The referenced report relates to an NRC inspection conducted November 17-20, 1986.
The inspection covered a broad range of the security operations at the plant and resulted in the identification of two Severity Level V findings.
Georgia Power Company (GPC) has undertaken numerous security improvements at both Plant Hatch and Plant Vogtle, and at our Corporate office to further enhance the Nuclear Security Program, as indicated in previous correspondence and meetings. We specifically wish to note that GPC has created and fully staffed a corporate nuclear security organization that monitors and provides assistance and direction to Plant Security Operations.
The recent Regulatory Effectiveness Review of Plant Hatch, which concentrated on actual physical security issues, resulted in a favorable preliminary report on the security operation of the plant. We believe this review is but another confirmation of our efforts to achieve excellence and the exemplary results accomplished in the past year.
Georgia Power Company believes that the effort and attention given to these two minor findings and the related implications of performance indicators and noncompliance statistics is contrary to effective and efficient regulatory practices inherent in the NRC's Enforcement Policy (10 CFR 2 Appendix C).
In our
- view, neither of the findings had safeguards significance.
The enclosure to this letter addresses in detail these two minor findings and the actions taken by GPC.
In addition, the enclosure describes the reasons which support our request that these two violations be withdrawn.
Our request that these two proposals be withdrawn is respectfully submitted.
An affirmative response would reinforce the positive movement our nuclear security program has already made, i
