Mr. Cordell Reed Senior Vice President Licensing Department - Suite 300 Opus West III 1400 Opus Road Downers Grove, IL 60515

SUBJECT:

REQUEST FOR CANCELLATION OF NRC ADMINISTERED OPERATOR REQUALIFICATION EXAMINATION DURING FEBRUARY 1993

REFERENCE:

P. Piet to B. Davis letter dated October 26, 1992

Dear Mr. Reed:

on October 29, 1992, Region III received a letter from Mr. Peter Piet, Nuclear Licensing Administrator, Dresden Nuclear Power station, requesting that the NRC cancel its participation in the scheduled February 1993 requalification examination.

In response to your request, we reviewed Dresden's past requalification examination performance.

We determined that, although the previous requalification examination results were satisfactory, several weaknesses were identified during the September 1991 and 1992 examinations.

, Specifically, operators demonstrated weaknesses in (a) usage of Emergency Operating Procedures (EOP), (b) application of Technical Specifications, and (c) crew communications.

Because of the identified weaknesses, it would not be appropriate to cancel an NRC administered exam for 1993.

However, our schedule does allow for postponing the exam until the July/August time frame.

Based on my conversation with K. Graeser this

. postponement is acceptable.

If you have any questions, please contact me at (708) 790-5552.
