VIRGINIA ELECTRIC AND POWER COMPANY PNi 2. 4 \\

RICHMOND, VIRGINIA 23261 November 20, 1980 Mr. Harold R. Denton, Director Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation Attn:

Mr. Paul F. Collins, Chief Operator Licensing Branch U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Washington, D.C.

Dear Mr. Denton:

Serial No.

928 NO/JAH:mmf Docket Nos. 50-280 50-281 50-338 50-339 License Nos. DPR-32 DPR-37 NPF-4 NPF-7 Mr. Paul F. Collins' letter of July 5, 1978, approved Virginia Electric and Power Company's startup certification program based on the Surry Nuclear Training Center being "functionally and administratively independent of the staff of the station for which certification-training is being conducted."

We have identified an inconsistency with this basis as a result of a review of the newly reorganized Power Group organizational structure and recent per-sonnel changes.

As a result of this recent reorganization, the Surry and North Anna Nuclear Training Supervisors have become functionally responsible to their respective Station Manangers.

In light of the basis for approval of our certification program, that is, functional and administrative independence, we intend to utilize Corporate Office personnel as certifiers in order to regain this independence from the power station staffs.

We expect to forward resumes of our proposed certifiers for your review prior to the next startup certification, presently scheduled for February 19 and 20, 1981.

If you have any questions or require additional information, please contact this office.

f Very Truly Yours, J. H. Ferguson Executive Vice President Power
