SUBJECT:  FERMI NUCLEAR PLANT - NRC SECURITY INSPECTION REPORT 05000341/2010201: PRELIMINARY GREATER THAN GREEN FINDING
Dear Mr. Davis:
On October 6, 2010, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed a security
baseline inspection at the Fermi Nuclear Plant.  The inspection covered one or more of the key attributes of the security cornerstone of the NRC's Reactor Oversight Process.  The enclosed inspection report documents the inspection results, which were discussed on June 15, 2010, and October 6, 2010, with members of your staff.
The inspection examined activities conducted under your license as they relate to security and compliance with the Commission's rules and regulations and with the conditions of your license. The inspectors reviewed selected procedures and records, observed activities, and interviewed personnel.
Based on the results of this inspection, a finding determined preliminarily to be of greater than very low security significance (i.e., Greater than Green as determined by the Physical Protection Significant Determination Process).  This finding does not have an associated cross-cutting area.  All deficiencies identified by the NRC were promptly corrected or compensated for, and the plant was in compliance with applicable physical protection and security requirements within
the scope of this inspection before the inspectors left the site. 
This finding is also an apparent violation of the NRC requirements and is being considered for escalated enforcement action in accordance with the Enforcement Policy, which can be found on the NRC's web site at: http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html.  Before we make a final significance decision regarding the preliminary "Greater than Green" finding, we are providing you an opportunity (1) to attend a Regulatory Conference where you can present to the NRC your perspective on the facts and assumptions the NRC used to arrive at the finding and assess its significance, or (2) submit your position on the finding to the NRC in writing.  If you request a Regulatory Conference, it should be held within 30 days of the receipt of this letter and we encourage you to submit supporting documentation at least one week prior to the conference in an effort to make the conference more efficient and effective.  If a Regulatory Conference is
held, it will be closed to public observation because it involves security sensitive information.  If you decide to submit only a written response, such submittal should be sent to the NRC within

  30 days of the receipt of this letter.  If you decline a Regulatory Conference and choose not to submit a written response, the NRC will proceed with its final determination.
Please contact Mr. Clay Johnson, Chief, Security Performance Evaluation Branch, Division of Security Operations, at 301-415-6640 within 10 business days of the date of receipt of this letter to notify the NRC of your intentions.  If we have not heard from you within 10 days, we will
continue with our significance determination and enforcement decision.  The final resolution of this matter will be conveyed in separate correspondence. 
Since the NRC has not made a final determination in this matter, no Notice of Violation is being issued for the inspection finding at this time.  In addition, please be advised that the number of
apparent violations and/or the characterization of the apparent violation described in the enclosed inspection report may change as a result of further NRC review.
In accordance with Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) Section 2.390 of the NRC's "Rules of Practice," a copy of this letter will be available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public Document Room or from the Publicly Available Records System (PARS) component of NRC's Agency-wide Documents Access and Management System
(ADAMS), accessible from the NRC Website at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html (the Public Electronic Reading Room).  However, because of the security-related concerns contained in the enclosure, and in accordance with 10 CFR 2.390, a copy of this letter's enclosure will not be available for public inspection.
In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390(b)(1)(ii), the NRC is waiving the affidavit requirements for your response, if any.  This practice will ensure that your response will not be made available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public Document Reading Room or from the NRC's document system, ADAMS.  If Safeguards Information is necessary to provide and acceptable response, please provide the level of protection described in 10 CFR 73.21. 
Otherwise, mark your entire response "Security-Related Information - Withhold Under 10 CFR 2.390" and follow the instructions for withholding in 10 CFR 2.390(b)(1).
Should you have any questions concerning this inspection, we will be pleased to discuss them with you.

SUBJECT: FERMI NUCLEAR PLANT - NRC SECURITY INSPECTION REPORT 05000341/2010201: PRELIMINARY GREATER THAN GREEN FINDING

Dear Mr. Davis:

On October 6, 2010, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed a security

baseline inspection at the Fermi Nuclear Plant. The inspection covered one or more of the key attributes of the security cornerstone of the NRC's Reactor Oversight Process. The enclosed inspection report documents the inspection results, which were discussed on June 15, 2010, and October 6, 2010, with members of your staff.

The inspection examined activities conducted under your license as they relate to security and compliance with the Commission's rules and regulations and with the conditions of your license. The inspectors reviewed selected procedures and records, observed activities, and interviewed personnel.

Based on the results of this inspection, a finding determined preliminarily to be of greater than very low security significance (i.e., Greater than Green as determined by the Physical Protection Significant Determination Process). This finding does not have an associated cross-cutting area. All deficiencies identified by the NRC were promptly corrected or compensated for, and the plant was in compliance with applicable physical protection and security requirements within

the scope of this inspection before the inspectors left the site.

This finding is also an apparent violation of the NRC requirements and is being considered for escalated enforcement action in accordance with the Enforcement Policy, which can be found on the NRC's web site at: http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html. Before we make a final significance decision regarding the preliminary "Greater than Green" finding, we are providing you an opportunity (1) to attend a Regulatory Conference where you can present to the NRC your perspective on the facts and assumptions the NRC used to arrive at the finding and assess its significance, or (2) submit your position on the finding to the NRC in writing. If you request a Regulatory Conference, it should be held within 30 days of the receipt of this letter and we encourage you to submit supporting documentation at least one week prior to the conference in an effort to make the conference more efficient and effective. If a Regulatory Conference is

held, it will be closed to public observation because it involves security sensitive information. If you decide to submit only a written response, such submittal should be sent to the NRC within

continue with our significance determination and enforcement decision. The final resolution of this matter will be conveyed in separate correspondence.

Since the NRC has not made a final determination in this matter, no Notice of Violation is being issued for the inspection finding at this time. In addition, please be advised that the number of

apparent violations and/or the characterization of the apparent violation described in the enclosed inspection report may change as a result of further NRC review.

However, because of the security-related concerns contained in the enclosure, and in accordance with 10 CFR 2.390, a copy of this letter's enclosure will not be available for public inspection.

In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390(b)(1)(ii), the NRC is waiving the affidavit requirements for your response, if any. This practice will ensure that your response will not be made available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public Document Reading Room or from the NRC's document system, ADAMS.
