SUBJECT:
REPORT ON TRIP TO V. C. SUfMER NUCLEAR PLANT, ,
JULY 22 AND 23, 1985 On July 22 and 23, 1985, we conducted a limited training review at V. C.
Sumer as an incident follow-up on the February 21, 1985, high start-up rate and subsequent power range trip. We were accompanied by Dolan Falconer, Region II Inspector. Our objective was to detennine whether the training l program was in any way a contributing factor to the incident and further
' establish whether there might be any concerns related to INPO Accreditation.
We used the new " Training Review Criteria and Procedures" (21 June 1985) to structure this incident-based review.
To sumarize our analysis of the contributing factors in the incident and the plant staff's internally recomended corrections, we have prepared the following chart:

l \
t' August 12, 1985 Following our review, we strongly recommended to the ifcensee that OJT ;
activities be recognized as part of the training function and that .
administrative controls be established over this function in order to avoid l the breakdown in sequencing of learning that occurred here. In particular, we stressed that the SR0s who conduct OJT duties receive perfomance-based training in the skills necessary to properly instruct, monitor and evaluate trainees perfoming critical skills such as those labelled " Practical Factors." In addition, these SR0s should be listed as part of the training organization in their OJT capacity and should receive instructions concerning '
I their duties and responsibilities as part of the instructional staff. Added to this was the recommendation that the training department maintain
. administrative control over sequencing of learning so that perfomance of a . j l Practical Factors exercise would not be possible without a minimum of skills :
- and knowledge acquisition by the trainee. Such controls would be similar to i those which logically require that simulator training be scheduled late in '
I the training sequence, a consideration that .is not -Jisputed by professional training str.ffs. t l Two issues related to INPO Accreditation should be noted. First, the validation of plant-specific task information was a condition of Accreditation for V. C. Summer. When we attempted to trace the STA tasks l back to the INPO task analysis in an attempt to review the relevant training i for the STA, it was found that the INPO data base on the STA position was not
- available to the utility as it is apparently undergoing revision. The utility had not been aware of this and the training staff was not able to describe with certainty how or when INPO would infom utilities of changes so l they could update their training. This experience with the STA task analysis base pointed to the fact that Sumner has not yet validated all the relevant INPO task lists to make them plant-specific. There did not seam to be a timeframe for accomplishing this although the R0 and STA programs we reviewed are already accredited by INPO.
A second issue related to INPO Accreditation is that of the OJT program as a whole. The program at Summer (and apparently at most utilities) seems to
- exist more as an operations function than a training function. As such, it manages to elude the established Accreditation criteria which are applied to the other programs such as simulators - which clearly are established as falling under the purview of the training function. Allowing this situation i to occur seems to be a weakness which invites problems such as those described I
as contributing factors 3, 4, 5 and 6. These concerns should be discussed with INP0 during our next quarterly information exchange meeting.
I A concern raised by this issue is whether or not, given this type of situation, it is appropriate for the NRC to continue to allow Requalification credit to an SR0 who "either manipulates the controls or directs the activities of individuals during plant control manipulations during the tem l

I August 12, 1985 of their licenses" (10 CFR 55 App. A, 3.a). Although we did not specifically examine this issue, it seems appropriate to consider whether these two alternatives are interchangeable, as is implied in the regulation, or if the two represent entirely different sets of knowledge, skills and abilities. A study of outcomes such as the V. C. Summer incident could support a view that these two performance areas are both equally important and mutually exclusive.
We are most grateful to the Resident Inspector, C. W. Hehl, and Region II Inspector, Dolan Falconer, for their assistance and guidance during this review.
