" " October 23, 2011 Mr. Adam C. Heflin, Senior Vice President and Chief Nuclear Officer Union Electric Company P.O. Box 620 Fulton, MO 65251

SUBJECT: CALLAWAY PLANT - NRC SECURITY INSPECTION REPORT 05000483/2011402

Dear Mr. Heflin:

On September 16, 2011, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed a security baseline inspection at your Callaway 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 September 16, 2011, with Mr. L. Graessle, Director, Plant Support, and other 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. This report documents two NRC identified findings of very low security significance (i.e., Green as determined by the physical protection significance determination process). These deficiencies 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. Additionally, one licensee identified violation, which was determined to be of very low security significance, is listed in this report. However, because of their very low security significance, and because these violations were entered into your corrective action program, the NRC is treating these violations as noncited violations (NCVs)

consistent with Section 2.3.2 of the NRC Enforcement Policy. Union Electric Company - 2 If you contest these noncited violations, you should provide a response within 30 days of the date of this inspection report, with the basis for your denial, to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, ATTN.: Document Control Desk, Washington, D.C. 20555-0001; with copies to the Regional Administrator, Region IV, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, 612 E. Lamar Blvd, Suite 400, Arlington, Texas, 76011-4125; the Director, Office of Enforcement, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Washington, D.C. 20555-0001; and the NRC Resident Inspector at the Callaway Plant. Additionally, the NRC identified findings had crosscutting aspects in the area of human performance associated with work planning H3.a] and procedural compliance H4.b]. If you disagree with the crosscutting aspects assigned to the findings in this report, you should provide a response within 30 days of the date of this inspection report, with the basis for your disagreement, to the Regional Administrator, Region IV, and the NRC Resident Inspector at the Callaway Plant.

In accordance with 10 CFR 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 (PARS) component of the NRC's document system, ADAMS. ADAMS is 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 Room or from the NRC's document system, ADAMS. If safeguards information is necessary to provide an 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).

Sincerely,/RA/

Michael C. Hay, Chief Plant Support Branch-1 Division of Reactor Safety Docket: 50-483 License: NPF-30 Union Electric Company - 3 Nonpublic
