J JUN 19 E86 Docket No: 50-54 Cintichem, Inc.
ATTN: Mr. James J. McGovern Plant Manager P. O. Box 324 Tuxedo, New York 10987 Gentlemen:
Subject:
REACTOR OPERATOR AND SENIOR REACTOR OPERATOR LICENSING EXAMINATIONS In a telephone conversation between Mr. William Ruzicka, training coordinator and Mr. Douglas Coe, Examiner, arrangements were made for the administra-tion of the examinations at Cintichem, Inc.
The examinations are scheduled for September 17-18, 1986.
In order for us to meet the above schedule, it will be necessary for the facil-ity to furnish the approved reference material listed in Attachment 1, " Refer-ence Material Requirements for Reactor / Senior Reactor Operator Licensing Examinations," to Mr. W. Apley, Pacific Northwest Laboratories and to Region I by July 15, 1986. Any delay in receiving properly bound and indexed reference material will result in a delay in administering the examinations. Our examina-tions are scheduled far in advance with considerable planning to utilize our present limited examiner manpower and to meet the examination dates requested by the various facilities. Therefore, missing the July 15, 1986 deadline, even by a few days, likely will result in a long delay because it may not be possible to reschedule examinations at other facilities. Mr. W. Ruzicka has been advised of our reference material sets that are required, and the examiner's names and addresses where each set is to be mailed.
Please disregard those items in Attachment I which do not apply to your facil-ity (e.g. simulator reference material).
The facility management is responsible for providing adequate space and facil-ities in order to properly conduct the written examinations. Attachment 2,
" Administration of Reactor / Senior Operator Licensing Written Examinations,"
. describes our requirements for conducting these examinations. Mr. W. Ruzicka has also been informed of these requirements.
Attachment 2, also contains the Rules and Guidance that will be in effect dur-ing the administration of the written examination. The facility management is responsible for ensuring that all candidates are aware of these Rules.

I Cintichem, Inc. 2 All reactor operator and senior reactor operator license applications should normally be submitted at least 60 days before the first examination dates so that we will be able to review the training and experience of the candidates, process the medical certifications, and prepare final examiner assignments af-ter candidate eligibility has been determined. If the applications are not received at least 30 days before the examination dates, it is likely that a postponement will be necessary.
This request for information was approved by the Office of Management and Budget under Clearance Number 3150-0101, which expires May 31, 1989. Comments on burden and duplication may be directed to the Office of Management and Budg-et, Reports Management Room 3208, New Executive Office Building, Washington, D.C. 20503.
Thank you for your consideration in this matter. If you have any questions regarding the examination procedures and requirements, please contact Mr. Robert Keller, Chief, Reactor Projects Section IC, at (215) 337-5211.

ATTACHMENT 1 REFERENCE MATERIAL REQUIREMENTS FOR REACTOR / SENIOR REACTOR OPERATOR LICENSING EXAMINATIONS
- 1. Existing learning objectives and lesson plans (including training manuals, plant orientation manual, system descriptions, reactor theory, thermo-dynamics,etc.)
Training materials should include all substantive written material used for preparing candidates for initial R0 and SR0 licensing. The written material should be inclusive of learning objectives and the details pre-sented during lecture, rather than outlines. Training materials should be identified by plant and unit, bound, and indexed. Failure to provide complete properly bound and indexed plant reference material will result in canceling and scheduling of the examinations. Training materials which include the following should be provided:
System descriptions including of all operationally relevant flow paths, components, controls and instrumentation. System training material should draw parallels to the actua1 procedures used for oper-
~
ating the applicable system.
Complete and operationally useful descriptions of all safety-system interactions and, where available, B0P system interactions under emergency and abnormal conditions, including consequences of antici-pated operator error, maintenance error, and equipment failure.
Training material used to clarify and strengthen understanding of emergency operating procedures.
Comprehensive theory material that includes fundamentals in the area of theory of reactor operation, thermodynamics, heat transfer and fluid flow, as well as specific application to actual in plant compo-nents. For example, mechanical theory material on pumps should in-clude pump theory as well as descriptions of how these principles actually apply to major plant pumps and the systems in which they are installed (i.e., Reactor Coolant Pumps, all ECCS pumps, Recirculation pumps, Feedwater pumps and Emergency Feedwater pumps). Reactor Theory material should include descriptions that draw explicit ties between the fundamentals and the actual operating limits followed in the plant (i.e., reactor theory material should contain explanations how principles relate to the actual curves used by operators to verify shutdown margin or calculate an ECP).
- 2. Procedure Index (alphabetical by subject)
- 3. All administrative procedures (as applicable to reactor operation or safety) 0FFICIAL RECORD COPY OL 90 CINTICHEM - 0004.0.0 06/17/86
Attachment 1 2
- 4. All integrated plant procedures (normal or general operating procedures)
- 5. Emergency procedures (emergency instructions, abnormal or special proce-dures)
- 6. Standing orders (important orders that are safety related and may super-sede the regular procedures)

- 16. The following on the plant reference simulator
- a. List of all readily available initialization points.
- b. List of all preset malfunctions with a clear identification number.
The list should include cause and effect information. Specially, for each malfuaction a concise description of the expected result, or range of results, that will occur upon implementation should be pro-vided. Additionally, an indication of which annunciators are to be initially expected should be given.
- c. A description of simulator failure capabilities for valves, breakers, indicators and alarms.
- d. Where the capability exists, an explanation of the ability to vary the severity of a particular malfunction should be provided, i.e.,
ability to vary the size of a given LOCA or steam leak, or the abil-ity to cause a slow failure of a components such as a feed pump, turbine generator or major valve (e.g. drifting shut of a main feed-water control valve).

- h. Simulator instructions manual (voluntary by licensee),
- i. Description of the scenarios used for the training class (voluntary by licensee).
- 17. Additional material required by the examiners to develop examinations that meet the requirements of these standards and the regulations.
The above reference material should be approved, final issues and should be so marked. If a plant has not finalized some of the material, the chief examiner shall verify with the facility that the most complete, up-to-date material is available and that agreement has been reached with the licensee for limiting reference material should be bound with appropriate indexes or tables of con-tents so that they can be used efficiently.
