1.0 INTRODUCTION Examination report 50-245/92-23 (OL) documented the unsatisfactory Millstone Unit I
'
requalification program evaluation. Following the evaluation, a Confirmatory Action 12tter (CAL) 1-92-014 was issued that restricted those licensed operators who failed either the NRC
or facility requalification examination until either the facility requalification program was
determined to be at least provisionally satisfactory or until the licensed operators have been
evaluated as successful by the NRC. On February 12, 1993, the NRC administered a
,
simulator scenario wherein an SRO was required to demonstrate the ability to correctly l
classify an event. The examiner used the process and criteria described in NUREG-1021,
" Operator Licensing Examiner Standards," Revision 6.
2.0 INDIVIDUAL EXAMINATION RESULTS I
i The scenario involved a small loss of coolant accident coincident with a partial loss of i
electrical power to vital plant components. The individual correctly classified the event as an f
Alert-Charlie 1, in accordance with station emergency plan classification guides.
3.0 INSPECTION FINDINGS.
{
As a corrective action for the 1992 individual requalification examination failures, the
)
Millstone Unit I training department has developed and implemented individualized trainmg r
plans for each of the operators. The inspector reviewed the training plans for five operators
'
yet to successfully complete NRC administered requalification examinations. Completion of the actions specified in the individual plans was verified by discussions with training staff and i
review of records. The inspector also attended a staff training session dealing with
implementation of the Information Referenced Testing method now being used at Millstone i
'
Unit 1. The training session focused on development of the examination method, implementation, difficulties, and expected feedback to trainers on training effectiveness. No
-!
weaknesses were identified by the inspector. A more thorough assessment of training at the
unit will be completed in a future inspection.
6.0 EXIT MEETING
,
At the completion of the inspection and examination on February 12, 1993, the inspector
!
discussed results with Mr. R. Heidecker, Mr. M. Ross, and Mr. P. Prezkop, all of Millstone
Unit 1.
