SUBJECT: EXAMINATION REPORT No. 50-412/88-06 (OL)

During the week, of February 22, 1988, the NRC administered an examination to an j

employee of Duquesne Light Company (DLC) who had re-applied for a license -to  !

operate the Beaver Valley Unit 2 facility. Based on the results of this j

examination, an SRO license was granted. Details of the examination are .

described in the NRC Region I Examination Report which is enclosed with this ,

letter,

i

During our review of the comments provided to us by your facility's Training {

Section dated February 29, 1988, on the NRC administered written examination. -j

we noted instances where questions were challenged on the basis that the  ;

knowledge needed to answer the question was in an Abnormal Operating Procedure  !

(AOP) which an oper1 tor is not required or trained to memorize at Beaver  !

Valley. We are concerned that OLC has not identified steps in the AOPs which j

appear to the NRC to require prompt operator actions and, therefore, should be  ;

memorized. We further note that OLC A0Ps identify no immediate actions, only i

"manual actions." We request that OLC review its operational practices and  !

procedures and identify those actions needed to mitigate the conser,uences of l

the abnormal condition for inclusion in the AOPs. Attachment 3 ,,rovides  ;

further details of this concern. l

You are requested to review the concern discussed above and provide a response  !

to the NRC regarding OLC policy and any actions planned to resolve this

concern. g

'

,

In accordance with 10 CFR 2.790, a copy of this letter and the enclosure will j

be placed in the NRC Public Occument Room. l
