PLYMOUTH, Mass. -- The National Guard will no longer be part of the security contingent protecting the Pilgrim nuclear power plant in Plymouth.
Homeland Security officials said the drawdown of the 18-person force will begin Sunday under a new security plan developed between plant owner Entergy and state and local officials. The transition will be complete by July.
Juliette Kayyem, undersecretary of the state Homeland Security department, told The Patriot Ledger of Quincy that a modern and more sustainable system was needed to protect the plant. The new plan includes a direct phone line between plant security employees and state emergency management, state police and Plymouth police.
This is one of those things that would have been better off not publishing. I think it would have been better for people to not know of the new security plans.

From one who knows, the National Guard was just a feel good measure for the general public.
The specific measures that were in place prior are more then enough to terminate the DBT (Design Basis Threat) that we are told will be used against us. Else the NRC wouldn’t have allowed the plant to operate in the first place.
Whether you believe the DBT is another story.
Just my two cents worth.
