Mr. Charles Senior Vice President, Exelon Generation Company, LLC President and Chief Nuclear Officer (CNO), Exelon Nuclear 4300 Winfield Rd.

Warrenville, IL 60555 SUBJECT OYSTER CREEK GENERATING STATION - NRC SECURITY INSPECTION REPORT NO. 05000219/2009403

Dear Mr. Pardee:

On June 19, 2009, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed a security baseline inspection at your Oyster Creek Generating Station. 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 June 19, 2009, with Mr. Michael Massaro, Site Vice President 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 three NRC identified findings of very low security significance (i.e. Green as determined by the Physical Protection Significance Determination Process). The deficiencies were promptly corrected or compensated for, and the plant was in compliance with applicable physical protection and security requirements within the scope of the inspection before the inspectors left the site. Two of the findings had cross-cutting aspects in the area of Human Performance, because; procedures were not accurate (1 finding) [H.2 (c)] and personnel were not properly trained (1 finding) [H.2 (B)]. However, because of the very low safety significance and because they are entered into your corrective action program, the NRC is treating these violations as non-cited violations (NCV) consistent with Section VI.A. of the NRC Enforcement Policy. DETERMINATION Warning: Violation of Section 147 of the Atomic MADE BY:
