ATTACHMENT 1 Diablo Canyon Nuclear Power Plant, Unit 2 Operating License DPR-i Operating S'taff Experience Requirements 1
PG&E shall have a licensed senior operator on each shift who has had at least six months of hot operating experience on a pressurized water reactor, including 4
]
at least sfx weeks at power levels greater than 20% of full power, and who has-had startup and shutdown experience.
For those shifts where such an individual is not available on the plant staff, an advisor shall be provided who has had at least four years of power plant experience, including two years of nuclear plant experience, and who has had at least one year of experience on shift as i
a licensed senior operator at a similar type facility. Use of advisors who j
were licensed only at the R0 level will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis.
1 Advisors shall be trained on_ plant procedures, technical specifications and i
plant systems, and shall be examined on these topics at a level sufficient to j
to assure familiarity with the plant.
For each shift, the remainder of the shift crew shall be trained in the role of the advisors. Advisors, or fully j
trained and qualified replacements, shall be retained until the experience

to Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E or the licensee) which authorizes operation of the Diablo Canyon Nuclear Power Plant, Unit 2 (the facility or Diablo Canyon Unit 2). This licensee authorizes operation at reactor core power levels not in excess of 3411 megawatts thermal (rated power) in accordance with the provisions of*the license, the Technical Specifications and the Environmental Protection Plan. However, the license contains a condition currently limiting operation to five percent of full power (170.55 megawatts thermal). Authorization to operate at greater than five percent will require Commission approval. Diablo Canyon, Unit 2 is a pressurized water reactor located in San Luis Obispo County, California.
The appilcation for license complies with the standards and requirements of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended (the Act), and the Comission's regulations. The Comission has made appropriate findings as required by the Act and the Comission's regulations in 10 CFR Chapter I, which are set forth in the License.
