SUBJECT:
JAMES A. FITZPATRICK NUCLEAR POWER PLANT - NRC MATERIAL CONTROL AND ACCOUNTING PROGRAM INSPECTION - REPORT
05000333/2007201 Dear Mr. Dietrick
On March 22, 2007, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed a material control and accounting (MC&A) safeguards program inspection at the James A. FitzPatrick
Nuclear Power Plant. The enclosed inspection report documents the inspection findings, which
were discussed with you and other members of y our staff during an exit meeting on that date .
The inspection examined activities conducted under your license as they relate to safety, 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 storage of
special nuclear material in the spent fuel pool, and interviewed personnel. Areas examined
during the inspection included physical inventory and accounting records.
Based on the results of this inspection, no findings of significance were identified. However, a licensee-identified violation, which was determined to be of very low safety significance is
discussed in the report. The NRC is treating this violation as a non-cited violation (NCV)
consistent with Section VI.A.1 of the Enforcement Policy because of the very low safety
significance of the violation and because it was corrected prior to this inspection. If you contest
this non-cited violation you should provide a response within 30 days of the date of this report, with the basis for your denial, to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, ATTN: Document Control
Desk, Washington DC 20555-0001; with copies to the Regional Administrator, Region I; Office
of Enforcement, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Washington, DC 20555-0001; and the
NRC Resident Inspector at FitzPatrick.
When separated from the Enclosure, this document is DECONTROLLED.
