dyron Initial Operating Staff Previous Experience At least one individual with previous operating experience will be available on each operating shift at Byron I for one year following initial criticality to include the attainment cf a nominal 100% power. Previous operating experience will be established in one of the following ways:
(1) previously licensed to operate a commercial PWR, (2) previous experience in the startup of a commercial PWR.
Conclusion We find the applicant's position to be acceptable, as it provides for sub-stantial operating experience on each operating shift to aid in the diagnosis and mitigation of abnormal plant conditions which could arise during initial plant startup and power ascension. Additionally, this experience will be provided for at least a year, thereby allowing a reasonable period of time for licensed individuals without previous commercial PWR operating experience to acquire familiarity with plant response under a variety of operating conditions.
