4. The individual stood a license required balance of plant watch on August 19, a non license required auxiliary building lower watch on August 20, was off August 21, and a license required at the controls watch on August 22. His supervisor and Operations Management have evaluated the individual's performance for August 19,20, and 22 and found nothing that indicated either aberrant behavior or drug use.

5. These were no procedural errors related to the occurrence. The testing was -

a random test, not for cause after a procedural enor,

6. The individual was released from employment and his license requested to ,

be terminated. This license termination was requested on 08/29/97.

The Medical Officer's evaluation of the individual meeting the requirements of 10 CFR 55.33(a)1 is not needed since the individual was terminated once a

confirmed positive was determined. This happened prior to the Medical Officer .

determining whether or not the medical qualifications,of the individual were within requirements. ,
