Dear Chairman Zech:

SUBJECT:

UPDATED POLICY STATEMENT ON TRAINING AND QUALIFICATION OF NUCLEAR POWER PLANT PERSONNEL -- ACRS COMMENTS During the 336th meeting of the Advisory Committee on Reactor Safe-guards April 7-9, 1988, we considered a Subcomittee report and dis-cussed a draf t of the updated Comission Policy Statement on Training and Oualification of Nuclear Power Plant Personnel. Our Subcomittee on Human Factors met 'with representativas of the NRC Staff on March 28, 198P. to discuss this matter.

We also had the benefit of the referenced documnts.

I We endorse the Staff proposal to issue the proposed policy statement for public coment.

We are of the opinion that the training and accredita-tion precram of the industry and the Institute of Nuclear Power Opera-tions has beer. highly successful in establishing effective training programs for the personnel responsible for the operation of nuclear power plants.

We encourage continuation of the INPO-managed accredita-tion program and believe it is unnecessary for the NRC to consider rulemaking related to this issue.

Dr. Forrest J. Remick did not participate in the Comittee's delibera-tions regarding this matter.

Sincerely, W. Kerr Chairman
