Gentlemen:
SUBJECT: NRC REVIEW 0F V0GTLE READINESS REVIEW MODULE 2, OPERATIONS TRAINING
AND QUALIFICATION
The NRC has completed a detailed review, inspection, and verification of the
subject module which you submitted to the NRC on August 19, 1985.
Periodic
inspections were conducted at the Vogtle site, and the resultant findings were
discussed with members of your staff at the conclusion of these inspections.
Technical reviews were also conducted in NRC Bethesda offices, and the findings
from these reviews have also been discussed with your staff.
Areas contained in the module which were reviewed, examined, and verified are
identified in the enclosed report.
Within these areas, the inspection and
verification consisted of selected examinations of procedures and representative
records, discussions with personnel, observations of activities in progress, and
review of your licensing commitments.
The primary results of module 2 reviews and inspections are provided in the
summary and conclusions section of the enclosed report.
Within the findings
section, several deficiencies are identified.
Your attention is invited to these
matters which will be pursued during future reviews and inspections.
Based upon the NRC review and inspection of those activities identified in the
module, we consider that several examples existed where regulatory requirements
and guidance were not adequately implemented, that significant administrative
deficiencies existed with training program implementation, and that, in our
judgement, some specific areas of training required improvement to assure effec-
tive training of personnel.
In many cases, you initiated appropriate corrective
actions which should resolve the noted deficiencies.
In some cases, your
previously planned activities for improved training had not been completely
established or implemented at the time of our inspections and consequently could
not be evaluated by the NRC at that time.
As described in the enclosed report,
some areas of training considered by the NRC to be deficient still require
^
further resolution.
This resolution will be integrated into the plant licensing
process.
Training content, quality, and effectiveness appeared to be satisfactory,
with the exception of walkthrough training, Technical Specification training,
emergency planning training and training for mitigation of core damage. .
Additionally, sufficient resources appeared to be allocated to ensure '
satisfactory training program implementation, and Georgia Power Company
employees appeared to be supportive of your training programs.

We will again be inspecting your programs for training and qualification of
personnel prior to licensing as part of the Near Term Operating License inspec-
, =
tior' program and during that inspection, we will assess the adequacy of implemen-
tation of corrective actions as:;ociated with this review.
It is expected that,
~ t that time, all open items and unresolved issues associated with training
a
should be corrected.
Based upon your responsiveness and your ongoing efforts to correct the deficien-
cies noted during this review, it appears that module 2 will be acceptable once
corrective actions have been satisfactorily implemented and remaining concerns
have been adequately resolved.
Should you have any questions concerning this letter, please contact us.
Sincerely,
(original signed by)
