Dear Mr. Ridenoure:

On July 05, 2006, the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed a Special Inspection pursuant to Inspection Procedure 93812 at your Fort Calhoun Station facility, regarding a potential security related vulnerability. The enclosed inspection report documents the inspection results, which were discussed on July 05, 2006, with Mr. J. Reinhart, Site Director, and other members of your staff.

This inspection examined activities conducted under your license as they relate to security and compliance with the Commissions rules and regulations and with the conditions of your license.

The inspection charter for this special inspection was issued by the NRC on April 18, 2006.

The inspector reviewed selected procedures and records, evaluated activities, and interviewed personnel.

This letter discusses a finding that appears to have greater than green security significance, as described in Section 3.4 of this report. This finding was assessed based on the best available information, including influential assumptions, using the Physical Protection Significance Safeguards Information determination made by:
