SUBJECT:
NRC OPERATIONAL EVALUATIONS REPORT NO. OL-50-324/90-02
This refers to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) observation of crew
performance on the Brunswick simulator conducted by C. Casto during the period
May 18-19,1990.
The evaluation included a review of activities authorized
for your Brunswick facility. At the conclusion of the Operational Evaluations,
the findings were discussed with those members of your staff identified in the
enclosed report.
During the weeks of April 30 - May 7,1990, requalification examinations were
conducted at the Brunswick site in accordance with NUREG-1021
ES-601. An
unsatisfactory program evaluation was determined when three out of four crews,
and 14 out of 20 operators were judged to be unsatisfactory (Examination Report
OL-50-325/90-01).
In response, a meeting with NRC management was held in
>
Atlanta on May 15, 1990. As a result of that meeting, and in accordance with
NUREG-1021, ES-601, Operational Evaluations were scheduled.
C. Casto led a team which observed the Operational Evaluations on the simulator
during May 18-19, 1990.
It was found that four of four crews performed
unsatisfactorily during these evaluations. Performance deficiencies were noted
in the areas of command / control and communications, manipulative and cognitive
skills, and use of Emergency Operating Procedures.
Your attention is invited to the Details section of this report that incicates
significant operator weaknesses as a result of training program deficie0cies.
As discussed in the management meetings held in Atlanta during May 1590,
Carolina Power and Light (CP&L) will present a long term corrective action plan
to the NRC by June 30, 1990.
In accordance with Section 2.790 of the NRC's " Rules of Practice," Part 2,
Title 10, Code of-Federal Regulations, a copy of this letter and its enclosure
will be placed in the NRC's Public Document Room.
