Dear Mr. Bellamy:

In response to your letter of May 16, 1988, the Pennsylvania Power & Light Company (PP6L) has attached its revised reply to the Notice of Violation dated November 30, 1987.

Very truly yours, H. W. Keiser Attachment cc: NRC Document Control Desk (original)

NRC Region I Mr. F. I. Young, NRC Resident Inspector Mr. M. C. Thadani, NRC Pro)ect Manager

ATTACHMENT TO PLA-3043 Revised Res onse to Notice of Violation The Notice of Violation involved assignment of an individual to the position of Radiological Operations Supervisor who did not meet the requirements of ANSI N18.1-1971, Section 4.3.2. In subsequent discussions between Dr. Mohamed M. Shanbaky of your staff and Mr. Harry L. Riley and Mr. Raymond M. Harris of PP&L, the following temporary measures were agreed upon to permit the incumbent to remain in the position until fully qualified.

o The incumbent will be removed from the emergency plan position of Radiation Protection Coordinator.

o The incumbent will not have approval authority for issuance of radiation work permits or exposure control documents.

o The incumbent will not be allowed procedural signature authority as the "responsible supervisor" in accordance with plant administration procedures.

o The Health Physics Foremen will be provided direct access to the Health Physics/Chemistry Supervisor on all matters pertaining to radiological protection when in their )udgment such matters require a higher level of management attention.

o The incumbent will be provided training concerning radiological regulatory requirements contained in 10CFR, Regulatory Guides, ANSI standards, and NUREGS.

o The incumbent will not be assigned as a replacement for the Health Physics/Chemistry Supervisor during temporary Health Physics/Chemistry Supervisor absences.

Based on these temporary measures, PP&L is in full compliance. These measures will remain in force until January 1, 1989 at which time PP&L believes the incumbent will have obtained adequate experience and training to be considered fully qualified. We are aware that your staff believes that the incumbent will not be fully qualified until "January 1, 1990. By October 1, 1988 we will provide our Justification supporting our conclusion that the incumbent will be fully qualified on January 1, 1989.

To avoid similar noncompliances in the future with this and other middle management positions, PP&L will clarify the qualifications for these positions in the FSAR and implementing procedures as appropriate. We will also evaluate our existing mechanism for review and approval of individual qualification deviations.
