I Entergy Nuclear Operations, Inc. (Licensee or Entergy) is the holder of Reactor Operating License No. DPR–20 issued by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC or Commission) pursuant to 10 CFR Part 50 on March 24, 1971. The license authorizes the operation of the Palisades Nuclear Plant in accordance with conditions specified therein. This Confirmatory Order is the result of an agreement reached during an Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) mediation session conducted on September 15, 2009. erowe on DSK5CLS3C1PROD with NOTICES II On May 22, 2008, the NRC completed a security baseline inspection at the Palisades Nuclear Plant. The inspection covered one or more of the key attributes of the security cornerstone of the NRC’s Reactor Oversight Process. As a result of the inspection observations, the NRC Office of Investigations (OI) initiated an investigation (OI Case No. 3–2008–020). Based on the evidence developed during the inspection and investigation, the NRC identified a violation of 10 CFR 50.9 for inaccurate and incomplete information. This violation is described in the separate Notice of Violation, included as Enclosure 3 to the transmittal letter. VerDate Nov<24>2008 15:22 Nov 18, 2009 Jkt 220001 (Because the Notice of Violation contains Security-Related information, it is not being made publicly available.) The results of the investigation were sent to Entergy in a letter dated July 14, 2009. This letter offered Entergy the opportunity to either participate in ADR mediation or to attend a Predecisional Enforcement Conference. On July 28, 2009, the NRC and Entergy agreed to mediate. On September 15, 2009, the NRC and Entergy participated in an ADR session mediated by a professional mediator, arranged through Cornell University’s Institute on Conflict Resolution. As used by the NRC, ADR is a process in which a neutral mediator with no decision-making authority assists the parties in reaching an agreement on resolving any differences regarding the dispute. This Confirmatory Order is issued pursuant to the agreement reached during the ADR process. III During the September 15, 2009, ADR session, a preliminary settlement agreement was reached. The elements of the agreement consisted of the following: 1. Entergy will publish the corrective actions set forth in this Confirmatory Order to the Entergy fleet nuclear workforce, via Inside Entergy, within one month of the issuance of the Confirmatory Order. Entergy will provide a copy of the publication to the Regional Administrator, Region III, within one month of publication of the article. 2. Entergy agrees to develop and implement a formal process, within the current Corrective Action Program (CAP), that ensures that Safeguards and Security-Related information, which would otherwise not be contained in the CAP, is processed in an auditable manner, consistent with Entergy’s existing CAP. Entergy will develop and implement this process within 6 months of the date of the Confirmatory Order and will provide a description of these program changes to the Regional Administrator, Region III, within one month of their implementation. Entergy will complete training for those personnel with Safeguards access on the program described above within 90 days of the effective date of the procedure or process described above. 3. Entergy will provide training to Entergy’s nuclear workforce on the sensitivity and importance of providing complete and accurate information to the NRC. This training will be completed within 1 year of the date of the issuance of the Confirmatory Order. Entergy will tailor the training, as PO 00000 Frm 00038 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 59995 appropriate, to reflect the level of the individuals within the organization and their specific responsibilities for communicating with the NRC. Entergy will maintain auditable records of the training and will provide notification to the Regional Administrator, Region III, within one month of completion of the training. 4. Entergy will assess its succession planning process with respect to how that process addresses unanticipated, short-term personnel losses in key positions. Entergy will complete this assessment, and will develop corrective actions, as appropriate, within 6 months of the date of the issuance of the Confirmatory Order. Entergy will provide the results of this assessment to the Regional Administrator, Region III, within one month of its completion. 5. An Entergy executive will meet with the three NRC Regional Administrators for the regions in which Entergy owns and operates plants, to share and discuss the results of the safety culture workplace survey conducted at each Entergy nuclear plant in 2009. Subject to the schedules of the Entergy and NRC executive participants, Entergy will seek to have these meetings conducted by March 31, 2010. 6. Entergy will provide a lessonslearned presentation to the Regional Utility Groups for the NRC Regions in which Entergy operates nuclear facilities within 1 year of the date of the issuance of the Confirmatory Order. That lessons-learned presentation will address the events which gave rise to the Confirmatory Order and the corrective actions taken. Entergy will provide a copy of the proposed presentation to the Regional Administrator, Region III, for review prior to the presentation. 7. The NRC agrees to cite Entergy for a single violation of 10 CFR 50.9, associated with incomplete and inaccurate information, based exclusively on the information contained in Condition Reports CR– PLP–2007–05448 and CR–PLP–2007– 05758 and the February 5, 2008, verbal communications with the NRC. The NRC will not assign a Severity Level to the violation and will not issue a civil penalty for the violation. 8. Entergy, by signing the Agreement in Principle, makes no admission that any employee or former employee deliberately violated any NRC requirements and that this agreement is settlement of a disputed claim in order to avoid further action by the NRC. On October 13, 2009, Entergy consented to issuing this Order with the commitments, as described in Section V below. Entergy further agreed that this E:\FR\FM\19NON1.SGM 19NON1
