7590-01 NUCLEAR REGULATORY C0iMISSION DRAFT REGULATORY GUIDE Notice of Issuance and Availability The Nuclear Regulatory Comission has issued for public comment a draft of a proposed revision to a guide in its Regulatory Guide Series together with a draft of the associated value/ impact statement.
This series has been developed to describe and make available to the public methods acceptable to the NRC staff of implementing specific parts of the Commission's regulations and, in some cases, to delineate techniques used by the staff in evaluating specific problems or postulated accidents and to provide guidance to applicants concerning certain of the infomation needed by the staff in its review of applications for permits and licenses.
The draft, temporarily identified by its task number, RS 807-5 (which should be mentioned in all correspondence concerning this draft guide), is the second proposed Revision 2 to Regulatory Guide 1.8 and is entitled " Personnel Qualification and Training." Revision 1 of Regulatory Guida l. 8, dated September 1975, which endorsed ANSI N18.1-1971, " Selection and Training of Nuclear Power Plant Personnel,"
was issut.d to describe a method acceptable to the NRC staff for complying with portions of the Commission's regulations governing the qualification and training of nuclear power plant personnel. In February 1979, a draft Revision 2 of Regulatory Guide 1. 8 was i ssued for public womment. It was intended that Revision 2 would endorse 8 01 J,20 0 60
j 7590-01 l
.z.
ANSI /ANS 3. l_1978, which was a revised version of ANSI N18.1-1971.
In May 1979, additional coments on the draft revision 2 in the area of personnel qualifications were requested in light of experience gained from the accident at Three Mile Island.
Copies of all comments received, both on the February 1979 draft guide and as a result of the May 1979 request for coments, were provided to the ANS-3 Subcommittee, which was developing a revision to the 1978 standard.
This second proposed revision to the guide was developed in parallel with the revision to the 1978 standard as a result of the lessons learned from the accident at Three Mile Island Nuclear Station, other operating experience, and public coments on the first proposed revision 2 issued in February 1979.
Further revision to this guide is anticipated before the active guide is issued as a result of planned changes to the Comission's regulations, the reccamendations of studies and investigations now in progress, and public coment expected on this draft.
This draft guide and the associated value/ impact statement are being issued to involve the public in the early stages of the development of a regulatory position in this area.
They have not received complete staff review and do not represent an official NRC staff position.
Public coments are being solicited on both drafts, the guide (including any implementation schedule) and the draft value/ impact statement.
Comments on the draft value/ impact statement should be accompanied by supporting data.
Comments on both drafts should be sent to the Secretary of the Commission, U. S.
Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Washington, D. C. 20555, Attention: Docketing and Service Branch, by December 5,1980.
