NRC INSPECTION REPORT 50-440/98021(DRS)
.
Dear Mr. Myers:
1
On October 22,1998, the NRC completed an inspection at your Perry Nuclear Power Plant.
The enclosed report presents the results of that inspection.
]
During the 1-week period covered by this inspection period, your conduct of activities
surrounding the implementation of the licensed operator requalification program was generally
characterized by safety conscious operations and sound evaluation of licensed operator
performance. The inspectors determined that your licensed operator requalification program
was being implemented in accordance with 10 CFR Part 55 requirements.
However, the inspectors identified a lack of quality control measures in regard to management's
review and approval of the examination material used for NRC-style performance evaluations.
These re!!ews were not documented for the operating test portion of the examination. In
support of this concern, the inspectors identified a lack of appropriate evaluator cues and valid
performance standards for a number of the job performance measure checklists used to
administer the in-plant performance evaluations. The circumstances surrounding this issue are
described in detailin the enclosed report. Please note that you are not required to respond to
this letter,
i
in accordance with 10 CFR 2.790 of the NRC's " Rules of Practice," a copy of this letter and its
,
enclosures will be placed in the NRC Public Document Room (PDR).
Sincerely,

Dear Mr. Myers:
On October 22,1998, the NRC completed an inspection at your Perry Nuclear Power Plant.
The enclosed report presents the results of that inspection.
During the 1-week period covered by this inspection period, your conduct of activities
surrounding the implementation of the licensed operator requalification program was gennrally
characterized by safety conscious operations and sound evaluation of licensed operator
performance. We are concerned, however, about the lack of quality control measures in regard
to management's review and approval of the examination material used for NRC-style
performance evaluations. These reviews were not documented for the operating test portion of
'
the examination. In support of this concern, the inspectors identified a lack of appropriate
evaluator cues and valid performance standards for a number of the job performance measure
checklists used to administer the in-plant performance evaluations.
The circumstances surrounding our concern are described in detail in the enclosed report.
