Licensed and Non-Licensed Staff Training This inspection was performed to meet the NRC commitment of the Systematic Assessment of Licensee Performance (SALP) Board Report for Fort Calhoun Station (NRC Inspection Report 50-285/85-07), dated May 14, 1985, which stated in Sections III.K.3 for licensee training. recommendations that:

"The NRC inspection effort in this functional area should be increase An evaluation of the licensee's corrective' actions and their impact on the training program should be performed by August 31, 1985."

The NRC issued a revision to Module 41701, " Licensed Operator Training,"

and a new inspection module.(41400) " Training of Non-Licensed Staff," on May 29, 1985, for .this management area. These modules recognized the INPO-managed accreditation of utility training programs,L and licensee initiatives Eto become accredited, in the following areas:

• Nonlicensed operator

The_ licensee has made reasonable progress towards INPO accreditatio This. area _will be reviewed in a subsequent inspectio Vendor Technical Information (VTI) Used for Training

- .

Licensee control of vendor manuals and other VTI is covered by NRC Generic Letter 83-28, dated July 8, 1983, " Subject: Required Action

'

Based on Generic Implications of Salem ATWS Events," Section 2. The latest licensee response to the NRC dated May 24, 1985

. (LIC-85-214), does not discuss that portion of Section 2.2.2 of Generic. Letter 83-28 which states that licensees shall establish,

implement, and maintain a continuing program to insure that vendor

information for safety-related components is appropriately referenced t

or incorporated in plant instructions and procedures after this j information has been determined to be complete, current and

controlled. The OPPD response did not commit to accomplish this action. This OPPD response committed to provide NRC with a completion schedule for accomplishment of other actions relating to Section 2.2.2 of Generic Letter 83-28 prior to the next refueling

,

outage, which is presently scheduled for September 27, 1985.

The NRC inspector reviewed one of the Student Handbooks (9-6-56)

developed for the OPPD INPO-Accredated Non-Licensed Operator Training Program. This handbook contained seven (7) items of VTI as reference The licensee initiatives for the INPO-accreditation program were not interfaced with the program to accomplish licensee corrective actions

'

required by NRC Generic Letter 83-28, to assure that vendor technical information used for training has been verified and controlled prior to its incorporation in the OPPD training program. As a result, training program documents produced, and training performed, may have been accomplished utilizing superseded VTI or VTI that is not applicable to the specific equipment installed at-Fort Calhoun Statio Fort Calhoun Station (FCS) Training Manual Specific, apparently long-standing-anomalies that the NRC inspector found in his review of the FCS Training Manual (Manual) are as follows:

The Manual does not include the American Institute of Steel Construction (AISC) Manual of Steel Construction, which providas criteria for installation and reinstallation of structural

, maintenance supervisors with the following findings:

(1) General Findings Qualification /on-the-job training (0JT) is performed by craft journeyman who have no documented training themselves in instruction. There are no documented minimum required scope and proficiency levels forfeach categor Complex categories such as "all electrical or maintenance I&C related to Engineered Safety Features (ESF)," which may <

take up to 3 years to complete, have no documented progress I sheets or sign off All required qualification /0JT steps

(eleven total) during the period reviewed by the inspector.

form requires a determination and documentatioe of VT! pages applicable to l " existing procedures and equipment at the Fort Calhoun Station."
