An Academic Refresher Ccurse of 80 hours9.259259e-4 days <br />0.0222 hours <br />1.322751e-4 weeks <br />3.044e-5 months <br />, and a Basic l.cadnic Training Course of 80 to 126 hours0.00146 days <br />0.035 hours <br />2.083333e-4 weeks <br />4.7943e-5 months <br /> were developed and presentra to the station staff by this organizat.cn. Other training courses 4 r the staff included 6 weeks of Pl!R Technology, 6 weeks of PNR Operation,one day of Health Physics and Emergency Procedures, and one week of Reactor Safety and fianagement of Radiation Accidents. Additional specific courses for selected personnel were conducted by the University of Michigan, Couglas United Huclear, Babcock and Wilcox, and several vendor specialist schools.
Personnel in trair.ing for fiRC licenses will be given on-the-job instruction by way of PWR observation at an operating nuclear station (8 weeks), PWR
~
observation at the Lynchburg Pool Reactor (2 weeks), and PWR simul' tor training at the Babcock & Wilcox sinulator (8 weeks).
The applicant has provided a description of his licensed operator requalification program. The lecture series to be administered covers the specific manipulations of controls to meet the requirements
. of Section 3a of Appendix A of 10 CFR Part 55; the methods to be eaployed to assure individual review of design, procedure and license changes; the methods to be c.aployed to assure individual review of abnormal and emergency procedures; the specific evaluation criteria for determining attendance at a specific lecture, required participation in an accelerated requalification program and other additional training, as applicable; and the recceds to ce maintained to document each individual's participation in the prograa.
'!e have revicuad the operator requalification program and we have deter:ained that the irogran meet the requirer..ents of Section 50.34(o)(3) and 50.54 (i-1) of 10 CFR Part 50, and Appendix A of 10 CFR Part 55.

The plan also describes arrangements inade for providing necessary medical attention for persons with contaminated injuries, and provisions for maintaining an adcouate Emergency. preparedness posture throughout the expected lifetime of the plant through training, exercises, and drills.
The plan will be coordinated with the radiological response planning of the State of Ohio Environmental Protection Agency.
The State plan is presently being developed.
However, an agreemant between the applicant and the Ottawa County Sheriff's Department provides assurance that prompt emergency acticn will be initiated in the environs of the plant upcn notification, by the Plant Superintendent or the Emergency Duty Officer, that protective measures for the public may be necessary.
. We have reviewed the applicant's Emergency Plan and conclude that it meets the requirements of 10 CFR Pa;-t 50, Appendix E, and provides an adequate basis for an acceptable state of emergency preparedness.
