SUBJECT:

REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION VIO 05000440/215010-01

Dear Mr. Hamilton:

On January 15, 2016, you responded to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC)

regarding a finding of very low safety significance (Green) and an associated violation of Technical Specification 5.3.1 when an unqualified individual was designated and performed the duties of Radiation Protection Manager (RPM) (ML16020A453). In order to complete its review, the staff requires additional information.

Request of Additional Information (RAI-1):

Your response indicated the reason the violation of NRC requirements occurred was due to not implementing a formal decision making and documentation process which prevented adequate justification and basis for RPM qualifications. However, the corrective steps that have been taken do not appear to address the identified cause for the violation. Please provide a copy of the revised decision making and documentation process that will ensure an adequate justification and basis for RPM qualifications.

RAI-2:

Your response indicated that you revised the Updated Safety Analysis Report to allow for the assignment of a Technical Specification qualified RPM in the event the Manager - Radiation Protection does not satisfy the Regulatory Guide 1.8 requirements. Please provide a copy of the affected Updated Safety Analysis Report page(s) and any supporting evaluation documentation associated with this change.

RAI-3:

Your response indicated that on January 12, 2016, you designated a supervisor as the Technical Specification qualified RPM. Please provide the education and work history/

experience for this individual along with any documentation that resulted from the decision making and documentation process that was used to conclude the supervisor satisfied the requirements for RPM. This letter does not contain new or amended information collection requirements subject to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.). Existing information collection requirements were approved by the Office of Management and Budget, Control Number 3150-0011. The NRC may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a request for information or an information collection requirement unless the requesting document displays a currently valid Office of Management and Budget Control Number.

In accordance with Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) 2.390, Public Inspections, Exemptions, Requests for Withholding, of the NRC's "Rules of Practice," a copy of this letter will be available electronically for public inspection in the NRCs Public Document Room or from the Publicly Available Records (PARS) component of the NRC's Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS). ADAMS is accessible from the NRC Web site at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html (the Public Electronic Reading Room).

Please provide the requested information within 30 days of the date of this letter. Because your response will be made available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public Document Room or from the NRCs ADAMS, accessible from the NRC Web site at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html, to the extent possible, it should not include any personal privacy, proprietary, or safeguards information so that it can be made available to the public without redaction. If personal privacy or proprietary information is necessary to provide an acceptable response, then please provide a bracketed copy of your response that identifies the information that should be protected and a redacted copy of your response that deletes such information. If you request withholding of such material, you must specifically identify the portions of your response that you seek to have withheld and provide in detail the bases for your claim of withholding (e.g., explain why the disclosure of information will create an unwarranted invasion of personal privacy or provide the information required by 10 CFR 2.390(b) to support a request for withholding confidential commercial or financial information).

Sincerely,

/RA/
