SUBJECT:
NRC TRAINING ISSUE
FOLLOWUP INSPECTION AND OPERATIONAL EVALUATION
(REPORT
NO. 50-397/92-04)
This refers to the inspection
by Hr. T. Headows
and
Hr . L. Vick on February
24-27,
1992
and communications
between Hr. Headows,
and your management staff,
on Harch 19,
and again
on March 24,
1992, of activities authorized
by NRC
License
No. NPF-21, at the Washington Nuclear Project, Unit 2.
This included
an operational
evaluation of a sixth operating
crew on February
27,
1992.
After the inspection,
the findings were discussed
with those
members of your
staff identified in the enclosed report,
Inspection
Report 50-397/92-04.
The inspection activities involved
a review of the closure status of short
and
intermediate
term corrective action plan
(CAP) commitments.
These
commitments
were part of your corrective actions in response
to your unsatisfactory
licensed
operator requalification training program.
The
NRC determined that the crew passed
the operational
evaluation
The crew
exhibited strong
command
and control,
and communications
competencies.
The inspection
concluded that all of the short term
CAP items were closed.
However, the inspectors
determined that two intermediate
term
CAP items remain
open.
,Your staff identified these
items to the inspection
team.
At the
inspection exit meeting, your staff agreed to complete closure of these
two
CAP items,
and to provide closure documentation
to the
NRC by the end of April
1992.
The
NRC will consider reclassifying your requalification program
as
provisionally satisfactory
once these
items are completed.
The inspectors
observations
regarding the examination
bank materials
in
Paragraph
3.c. of the enclosed
report appear to warrant management
attention.
The effectiveness
of your training staff to evaluate
licensed
operators
hinges
on having good evaluative material.
The inspectors
did determine
some
improvement
had
been
made producing simulator scenarios,
but more attention
needs to be placed
on improving the written examination material.
In accordance
with 10 CFR 2.790(a),
a copy of this letter and the enclosure
will be placed in the
NRC Public Document
Room.
