2.
Preoperational Test Program The inspector continued his review of the La Salle County Station startup manual for technical content and to familiarize himself with procedures governing the f acilities startup and preoperational testing phase program.
The licensee updated the inspector on the status of the preoperational test program with respect to system demonstrations performed, systems turnover, etc.
The inspector will continue this review on subsequent inspections.
No items of noncompliance or deviations were identified.
3.
Operational Staffing Review The inspector reviewed the qualifications of certain licensed operators, technicians, and mechanics to ANSI 18.1 requirements.
The licensee stated his position with respect to qualifying technicians and mechanics holding the positions of; "A" Control bystems Technicians;
"A" Electrician, and "A" Mechanic; to ANSI 18.1.
The licensee's position is that all personnel holding these positions at initial core loading will be qualified to this standard and that subsequent to initial core loading all personnel holding these positions will be so qualified or will not perforn work on safety related equipment. The licensee further statad that subsequent to initial core loading all personnel performing work on safety related equipment wi31 be qualified to ANSI 18.1.
The inspector concurred with the adequacy of the licensee's position-2-

.
and stated that changes in the licensee's procedures and FSAR to reflect this position should be initiated as necessary. These changes and a review of the qualications of the personnel effected will be the subject of the subsequent inspector examination.
No items of noncompliance or deviations were identified.
4.
Maintenance / Surveillance Procedure The inspector continued his review of selected plant procedures for performing maintenance and surveillance. The review of these procedures is for technical content, format and for scope of the procedure program. This review remains in progress with no signifi-cant concerns established.
The review will continue on subsequent inspections.
No items of noncompliance or deviations were identified.
5.
Operatine Staff Trcining The inspector reviewed the licensee's proposed change to Chapter 13 of the FSAR which concerns operating staff training. The inspector expressed concern that Paragraph 13.2.1.1.1.K, as changed, will relieve the licensee of the responsibility to examine personnel at the completion of the General Employee Training Course.
The licensee stated that the reason for the change was to bring this course into conformance with requirements for this course as it is presently being taught at other Co=monwealth Edison Company facilities. The licensee's intent is to standardize this course within the company so that personnel transferring from facility to facility will have to undergo a minimum of retraining. The inspectors position is that such standarization should occur at the highest common denominator and that the requirement for the examination should remain intact. The matter is open pending review of a regulatory basis that would require an exam.
No items of noncompliance or deviations were identified.
6.
Plant Procedure Review The inspector continued his review of plant operating procedures.
The review of these procedures is for format, technical content, and scope of the procedure program. No significant concerns were identified.
Procedure review will continue as more procedures are written and current procedures are revised.
No items of noncompliance or deviations were identified.
