REPORT 50-331/98018(DRS)
l ' Dear Mr. Franz:
! 4 r
L
On December 8,1998, the NRC completed a security inspection of your Duane Amold
j Energy Center reactor facility. The onsite inspection effort was conducted between ,
November 16-20,-1998. The enclosed report presents the results of that inspection.
~ - No violations of NRC requirements were identified during this inspection. Your security .
! ' equipment testing and maintenance program was a performance strength. The dedication
l of the maintenance technicians ensured that problems were corrected efficiently and
l effectively. JThe cooperation between the security department and various other
L maintenance departments resulted in' low equipment outage times and contributed to ;
L. . improvements in delay barriers. The security force had an aggressive and effective ;
equipment testing program. We also observed that your security organization implemented
'
'
. their duties and responsibilities in an effective manner.
L ;
,
'
.Two' issues were . identified that will require further analysis by us. One issue relates to ;
.several occasions when the required number of armed response force members were not
{
g immediately available, and the reporting requirements for such incidents. The other issue :
l ' pertains to the unescorted access authorization for a contractor employee. Resolution of ,
these issues will be addressed by separate correspondence,
