SUBJECT:

REQUALIFICATION PROGRAM INSPECTION - BRUNSWICK STEAM

ELECTRIC PLANT 50-325/2003-006 AND 50-324/2003-006

Dear Mr. Gannon:

In a telephone conversation on November 12, 2003, Ms. Kathleen ODonohue, Sr. Reactor

Inspector, and Tony Pearson, Supervisor - Operator Continuing Training, made arrangements

for the NRC to inspect the licensed operator requalification program at the Brunswick Steam

Electric Plant. The inspection is planned for the week of December 1, 2003, which coincides

with your regularly scheduled requalification examination cycle. The staff at your facility should

prepare and conduct the requalification examinations in accordance with your NRC-approved

requalification program. It is our understanding that your simulator is committed to ANSI

Standard 3.5, 1998.

In accordance with 10 CFR 55.59(c), the NRC has requested that you submit no later than

November 18, 2003, the material as specified in enclosure one, in order to support the NRC's

inspection program needs. Tony Pearson has been advised of this request and provided with

the name and address of the NRC lead inspector assigned to this inspection.

This letter contains information collections that are subject to the Paperwork Reduction Act of

1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.). These information collections were approved by the Office of

Management and Budget, approval number Part 55 (3150-0018), which expires on June 30,

2006.

The public reporting burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> per

response, including the time for reviewing instructions, gathering and maintaining the data

needed, and completing and reviewing the collection of information. Send comments on any

aspect of this collection of information, including suggestions for reducing the burden, to the

Information and Records Management Branch (T-6 F33), U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission,

Washington, DC 20555-0001, or by Internet electronic mail at SLF@NRC.GOV; and to the

Desk Officer, Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, NEOB-10202, (3150-0101), Office of

Management and Budget, Washington, DC 20503.

The NRC may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection

of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB approval number.
