CRQti Carolina Power & Light Company Shearon Harris Energy & Environmental Center Route 1, Box 327 New Hill, North Carolina 27562 June 23,'980 Mr. Paul F. Collins, Chief Operator Licensing Branch Division of Project Management U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission 7920 Norfolk Avenue
- Bethesda, Maryland
Dear Mr. Collins:
Pursuant to the H. R. Denton letter of March 28, 1980, Carolina Power
& Light Company requests your review and concurrence with our SRO certification progiam and retraining program as defined herein.
Enclosed is 'a brief description of the SRO certification program (Enclosure One) that. we will conduct at the Harris E&E Center commencing June 30, 1980.
All of the simulator instructors who have not held an SRO license on a Westinghouse Unit will be put through the program, with the exception of Mr.'ohn Vanderslice.
At the conclusion of this program the instructors will be ready to certify at the senior operator level, on the Shearon Harris simulator.
Mr. Vanderslice will not be put through this license program or be prepared to certify SRO on the Shearon Harris Simulator.
He was previously licensed SRO at CPGL's Brunswick facility which demonstrates his competence to teach BWR systems, integrated
- response, transients and BHR simulator courses.
His duties in these areas will be rest:ricted to BMR applications.
Enclosure Two is the description of the SRO retraining program that we will commence at the completion of the'RO,certification program.
Only the lecture series and self study program will be initiated in 1980.
The rest, of 'the program is fulfilled by the completion of the SRO certification program.
In 1981, the full retraining program will be put into effect.
Very truly yo rs,
,J.
