{

Description of Circumstances:

Because of the apparent failure of the operators at Three Mile Island to recognize certain plant conditions and take appropriate action to effec-tively cool the core and contain fission products after release from the core, the flRC Commissioners are evaluating licensee's requalification training programs. As one element in this evaluation, the NRC is interested in obtaining statistics about the failure rate on the annual requalification examinations. The information requested below, along with other inf armation, will then be used to evaluate the effectiveness of the operator requalification training program.

t Action to be Taken by Licensees:

For all power reactor facilities with an operating license.

1.

Provide both the total number and percentage of operators who have failed the annual requalification examination.

2.

Provide the percentage of those operators who take the annual requalification examination and are required to attend lectures on categoris of material for which they received a grade of less than 80 percent. Also provide the total number of supple-mental lectures attended (e.g., 3 operators had to attend 2 lectures,1 operator had to attend 3 lectures, etc.).

3.

Provide both the total number and percentage of operators under the requalification program that participated in accelerated training because they either scored less than 70 percent overall on the annual written examination or had an unsatisfactory performance on the oral examination.

4.

Provide the same information.

Operators.
