Attention: Mr. Harold B. Ray

Senior Vice President, Nuclear

Dear Mr. Ray:

SUBJECT: NRC INSPECTION OF SAN ONOFRE UNIT ONE LICENSED OPERATOR SIMULATOR

TRAINING, REPORT NO. 50-206/92-21

During the period of June 10 through June 12, 1992 the NRC conducted a routine

inspection of the simulator portion of the Unit 1 licensed operator

requalification training program. This inspection was announced and conducted

at the plant referenced simulator in Montreal, Canada. The purpose of the

inspection was to evaluate the effectiveness of the simulator portion of the

Unit 1 licensed operator requalification training program to maintain the

currency and competency of operators. This evaluation was not a complete

dynamic simulator evaluation, as described in NUREG-1021, ES-601, Revision 6,

"Administration of NRC Requalification Program Evaluations."

The inspection evaluated the effectiveness of the program in terms of training

effectiveness, evaluator effectiveness, crew performance, and reference

material. Details and findings of the inspection are contained in the

enclosed inspection report. At the conclusion of the inspection, the.

preliminary findings were discussed with those members of your staff

identified in the report.

No significant concerns with the simulator portion of the requalification

training program were identified. However some scenarios had not been

adequately validated. In addition, several other minor weaknesses were

identified. The deficiencies are detailed in the report.

We request that you provide a response to this report, within 30 days,

detailing corrective actions for the weaknesses identified.

No violations or deviations of NRC requirements were identified within the

scope of this inspection.

In accordance with 10 CFR 2.790 of the NRC's "Rules of Practice," a copy of

this letter and its enclosure will be placed in the NRC Public Document Room.

.The

response directed by this letter is not subject to the clearance

procedures of the Office of Management and Budget, as required by the

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1980, PL96.511.
