Dear Mr. Keppler:
MONTICELLO NUCLEAR GENERATING PLANT Docket No. 50-263 License No. DPR-22 As requested by IE Circular No. 76-07, a review has been completed concerning plans and programs which assure chat operating and support staff are, in fact, co= plying with safety proce+.es and that they are aware of safety-related incidents that occur at Monucello and similar f acilities.
Applicable Reportable Occurrences and Gignificant Operating Events which occur at this facility are reviewed in detail with the Shift Operators in conjunction with the Licensed Operator Requalification Program.
Infor=ative material relating to events at other facilities is received from a wide variety of sources. Such material is routed to the Shift Supervisors for review with their shift crews or to appropriate staff personnel as applicable.
Assessment of personnel performance in areas such as procedure adherence, use of checklists, tagging procedures, etc., is included in audit and inspection programs conducted by the Safety Audit Committee, NELPIA, and the IGC.
In addition, audits and inspections of these areas are conducted to satisfy the internal audit requirements of the Operational Quality Assurance Program. The administrative control processes for these areas include reviews and checks which are designed to identify problems which require corrective measures. Periodic retraining in these areas is conducted as part of the Operational Quality Assurance Program and Operators Requalification Program.
Procedure and checklist formats include signoffs of:
1 1.
Individual procedure steps, where necessary.
l 2.

3.
Independent review of completion.
(In most cases, this is performed by supervisory or technical staff personnel.
In many cases, completion review is required by more than one person.)
The degree to which signoffs are required is determined during the procedure preparation, review, and approval process which normally involves independent review by two knowledgeable supervisory technical staff personnel as well as review by the Operations Committee.
Each operating shift is supervised by a member of plant management. The Shif t Supervisor's responsibilities encompass monitoring and assessment of operations including crew canning and performance, equipment status, and plant conditions.
Yours very truly, L. J.
