Summary Mr. Starostecki opened the meeting and discussed the results of a recent inspection which identified violation of a Limiting Condition for Operation (LCO) with respect to operability of reactor vessel water level indication.
It was discussed that LCO violations are normally classified as Severity Level III, but in this case because of the circumstances surrounding the event, including facility and plant status and compensatory measures to monitor water level, this violation has been classified as Severity Level
!
IV. Mr. Starostecki indicated that in order to prevent recurrence, addi-tional operator training is warranted to insure that inspectors are thoroughly familiar with multiple Technical Specifications which may apply during given operational situations. Additionally, operators should be completely familiar with reactor protective system logic in order to determine the appropriateness of putting portions of the reactor protective system in trip when specific parameter inputs are lost.
The licensee's management representatives were concerned with the indicated i
operator training weakness and agreed that future training would reflect the need to improve operator knowledge in these identified areas.
Specific licensee corrective action will be identified in their response to the NRC l
