SUBJECT:

REQUALIFICATION PROGRAM INSPECTION - OCONEE NUCLEAR STATION

Dear Mr. Jones:

In a telephone conversation on February 8, 2005, Mr. Ronald F. Aiello, Senior Operations Examiner, and Mr. Neil Constance, Operations Training Manager, made arrangements for the NRC to inspect the licensed operator requalification program at the Oconee Nuclear Station.

The inspection is planned for the week of March 28, 2005, 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/ANS-3.5-1998, American National Standard for Nuclear Power Plant Simulators for use in Operator Training and Examination.

In accordance with 10 CFR 55.59(c), the NRC has requested that you submit (two weeks prior to the inspection/make ready upon arrival), the material as specified in the enclosure, in order to support the NRC's inspection program needs. Mr. Constance 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.

In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390 of the NRC's "Rules of Practice," a copy of this letter and its enclosure will be available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public

2 DPC Document Room or from the Publicly Available Records (PARS) component of NRC's document system (ADAMS). ADAMS is accessible from the NRC Web site at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html (the Public Electronic Reading Room).

Thank you for your cooperation in this matter. If you have any questions regarding this inspection, please contact Ronald F. Aiello at (404) 562-4641 or me at (404) 562-4647.

Sincerely,
