LOS ANGELES, Jan 14 (Reuters) - From 2001 to 2006 a worker who was supposed to make hourly fire patrols at the San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station in Southern California faked records to show checks had been made when they had not been, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission said on Monday.

It was one of a series of lax behavior -- and the most significant -- by workers at the nuclear power plant in the past year, the NRC found.

In 2007, SCE got into trouble with California utility regulators for a case of systemic records falsifying, which SCE admitted. In that case, company mangers four years ago urged workers to skew customer survey results so the investor-owned utility could get higher financial incentive awards.
