INSPECTION SCOPES
Inspections were conducted using the appropriate portions of the inspection procedures (IPs) in effect at the beginning of the inspection unless otherwise noted. Currently approved IPs with their attached revision histories are located on the public website at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/doc-collections/insp-manual/inspection-procedure/index.html. Samples were declared complete when the IP requirements most appropriate to the inspection activity were met consistent with Inspection Manual Chapter (IMC) 2201, Security Inspection Program for Commercial Nuclear Power Reactors. The inspectors reviewed selected procedures and records, observed activities, and interviewed personnel to assess licensee performance and compliance with Commission rules and regulations, license conditions, site procedures, and standards.

71130.09 - Security Plan Changes
The inspectors evaluated the security plan changes through completion of the following
procedure elements: Security Plan Changes
- (1) Since the last NRC baseline inspection of this program area, Virgil C. Summer Nuclear Station Physical Security Plan, Revision 21, was implemented based on Virgil C. Summer Nuclear Station's evaluation, and in accordance with 10 CFR 50.54(p)(2), that the change resulted in no decrease in safeguards effectiveness of the security plan and the revised security plan continues to meet the requirements of 10 CFR 73.55(b). The inspector conducted a review of the security plan change to evaluate for potential decreases in the safeguards effectiveness of the security plan; however, this review does not constitute formal NRC approval of this change.
Therefore, the change remains subject to future NRC inspection in its entirety.
