SUBJECT: PEACH BOTTOM ATOMIC POWER STATION - NRC SECURITY INSPECTION REPORT NOS. 05000277/2009404 AND 05000278/2009404

Dear Mr. Pardee:

On October 23, 2009, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed a security baseline inspection at your Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station. The inspection covered one or more of the key attributes of the security cornerstone of the NRC's Reactor Oversight Process. The enclosed report documents the inspection results, which were discussed on October 23, 2009, with you, 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.

Based on the results of this inspection, no findings of significance were identified. In addition, unresolved item (URI)05000277/2008405-01 (ML081490058) was closed following inspector review of Exelon's response to the cited Notice of Violation (05000277, 278/2009009-01, ML092220502). No violations were identified.

When separated from its Enclosure, this document is DECONTROLLED. 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 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 information 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/ James M. Trapp, Chief Plant Support Branch 1 Division of Reactor Safety Docket No. 50-277, 50-278 License No. DPR-44, DPR-56
