Dear Mr. Edington:

On February 4, 2016, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed a security inspection at Palo Verde Nuclear Generating Station, Units 1, 2, and 3, and the NRC inspectors discussed the results of this inspection with Ms. M.

The NRC inspectors did not identify any findings or violations of more than minor significance.
