DUANE ARNOLD ENERGY CENTER

NRC SECURITY BASELINE INSPECTION REPORT 05000331/2014404

Dear Mr. Anderson:

On February 7, 2014, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed a security inspection at your Duane Arnold Energy Center. On February 7, 2014, the NRC inspector discussed the results of this inspection with Mr. G. Pry and other members of your staff. The inspector documented the results of this inspection in the enclosed inspection report.

The inspection examined activities conducted under your license as they relate to security and compliance with the Commissions rules and regulations and with the conditions of your license.

The inspector reviewed selected procedures and records, observed activities, and interviewed personnel.

No NRC-identified or self-revealing findings were identified during this inspection.

However, the inspector documented a licensee-identified violation which was determined to be of very low security significance in this report. The NRC is treating this violation as a Non-Cited Violation (NCV) consistent with Section 2.3.2a of the Enforcement Policy. The deficiency was 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 area.

If you contest the violation or significance of the NCV, you should provide a response within 30 days of the date of this inspection report, with the basis of your denial, to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, ATTN: Document Control Desk, Washington, DC 20555-0001; with copies to the Regional Administrator Region III; the Director, Office of Enforcement, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Washington, DC 20555-0001; and the NRC resident inspector at the Duane Arnold Energy Center.

In accordance with Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) 2.390, Public Inspections, Exemptions, Requests for Withholding, of the NRC's "Rules of Practice," a copy of this letter will be available electronically for public inspection in the NRCs Public Document Room or from the Publicly Available Records (PARS) component of the NRC's Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS). ADAMS is accessible from the NRC Web site at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html (the Public Electronic Reading Room).

If you choose to provide a response and Security-Related Information is necessary to provide an acceptable response, please mark your entire response Security-Related Information Withhold from public disclosure under 10 CFR 2.390 in accordance with 10 CFR 2.390(d)(1)

and follow the instructions for withholding in 10 CFR 2.390 (b)(1). In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390(b)(1)(ii), the NRC is waiving the affidavit requirements for your response.

Should you have any questions concerning this inspection, we will be pleased to discuss them with you.

Sincerely,

/RA/
