Dear Mr. Heacock:

This letter provides you with the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission's (NRC's) final significance determination for a finding that was preliminarily determined to be of at least low to moderate security significance (Greater than Green). The finding was identified during an NRC inspection conducted at the Millstone Nuclear Power Station (Millstone) from August 16, 2010 -

September 28, 2010, and was presented at an exit meeting held on September 28, 2010. The finding was discussed in detail in the subject inspection report issued on November 9,2Q10.

Dominion Nuclear Connecticut, lnc. (Dominion) has taken immediate corrective actions to address any security-related vulnerability. The nature of the security-related finding, and the corrective actions taken to address the issue, are considered safeguards information (SGl) and are not included in this letter, but are described in the non-public enclosure.

Our November 9, 2010,letter also offered Dominion the opportunity to attend a Regulatory Conference or reply in writing to provide its position on the facts and assumptions the NRC used to arrive at the finding and its security significance. At Dominion's request, a Regulatory Conference was held on January 6, 2011, at the NRC's Region I office in King of Prussia, Pennsylvania with Leslie Hart, Vice President Nuclear Support Services, and other members of your staff. During the meeting, Dominion staff described Dominion's assessment of the significance of the finding and the corrective actions taken to resolve the issue. Dominion disagreed with the proposed significance of the issue, and presented new information to support Dominion's position.

After further consideration of the information developed during the inspection, and the additional information your staff provided at the conference, the NRC has concluded that the inspection finding is of very low security significance and should be characterized as Green. The NRC has also determined that the finding is associated with a violation of NRC requirements. The NRC is treating the issue as a non-cited violation in accordance with Section 2.3.2.a of the NRC Enforcement Policy because: 1) the violation was of very low security significance; 2) comptiance was restored immediately upon identification of the issue; 3) the violation was When separated from its Enclosure, this document is DECONTROLLED.
