Nuclear Regulatory Commission Attention: Document Control Desk One White Flint North 11555 Rockville Pike Rockville, MD 20852 South Texas Project Units 1 & 2 Docket Nos. STN 50-498, STN 50-499 Supplemental Response to April 29, 2003, Order for Compensatory Measures Related to Training Enhancements Applicable to Armed Nuclear Power Plant Security Force Personnel (EA-03-039)

Reference 1: Letter, J. J. Sheppard to NRC, "Answer, Response and Request for Clarification in Response to April 29, 2003, Order for Compensatory Measures Related to Training Enhancements On Tactical and Firearms Proficiency and Physical Fitness Applicable to Armed Nuclear Power Plant Security Force Personnel (EA-03-039)," June 2, 2003, NOC-AE-03001536 In several telephone conferences held between members of the NRC staff and licensee representatives we discussed a portion of STP Nuclear Operating Company's (STPNOC) initial response (Reference 1) to the Armed Security Officer Training Order.

As discussed, this letter amends STPNOC's initial response by withdrawing Enclosure 3 of our initial response. Enclosure 3 pr.ovided clarification of training frequencies to allow necessary flexibility during implementation of the Order. NEI 03-09, Security Officer Training Program, which is being submitted to the NRC for endorsement, provides adequate guidance on training frequencies, therefore clarification by STPNOC is no longer necessary.

Please direct any questions regarding this letter to Scott Head at (361) 972-7136.
