SUBJECT:
NRC SECURITY INSPECTION REPORT 50-282/99010(DRS);
50-306/99010(DRS)
l
Dear Mr. Wadley:
On August 12,1999, the NRC completed a routine, pilot program inspection at your Prairie
Island Nuclear Generating Plant. The enclosed report presents the results of that inspection.
The results of this inspection were discussed with Mr. D. Schuelke and other members of your
,
staff on that date.
{
The inspection was an examination of activities conducted under your license as they relate to '
the Safeguards Strategic Performance Area and compliance with the Commission's rules and
regulations and with the conditions of your license. Within this area, the inspection consisted of
a selected examination of procedures and representative records, observation of activities, and
i
interviews with personnel. Specifically, this inspection focused on performance involving the
Physical Protection cornerstone.
Based on the results of this inspection, the NRC identified two findings, each of low risk
significance. The first finding, relating to the training requirement, was determined to be a
violation of NRC requirements, and because of the low risk significance, the violation is not
j
being cited. This violation is being treated as a Non-Cited violation, consistent with Appendix C
]
of the Enforcement Policy. The NCV is described in the inspection report. If you contest the
violation or severity level of the NCV, you should provide a response within 30 days of the date
of this inspection report, with the basis for your .ienial, to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission,
ATTN: Document Control Desk, Washington DC 29555-001, with a copy to the Regional
Administrator, Region Ill, and the Director, Office of Enforcement, United States Nuclear
Regulatory Commission, Washington, DC 20555-0001. This issue has been entered in your
corrective _ action program.
l
The second finding pertained to the minimum numbu of armed personnel needed to respond to
I
the security design basis threat at the plant. The details for this finding are also addressed in
I
the enclosed inspection report. Our understanding of your commitment to resolve this finding is
identified in Section 3PP3.b.2 of the report deteils.
In addition to the above, NRC identified that incomplete information was gathered for the
security equipment performance indicator. This finding has also been entered in your corrective
action program.
