Dear Mr. Gagliardo:

As committed in Reference 3, the following is the course of action OPPD intends to utilize concerning the violations reported in Reference 2.

OPPD management is concerned about the generic aspects of violations which have resulted from failure of personnel to comply with established procedures. An increased level of consciousness and attention to detail by all personnel is needed to minimize procedural violations.

In order to improve the level of awareness, a training document has been issued to personnel in the Nuclear Production Division and Generating Station Engineering to make them aware of the situation and to request their increased attention to detail in the area of procedural compliance.

In addition, supervisory involvement in the field will continue to be emphasized by management.

In order to better address human performance problems on an ongoing basis, OPPD plans on becoming a full participant in INP0's Human Performance Evaluation System (HPES).

HPES is a problem-solving methodology used to identify the root causes of human performance problems, and to select appropriate corrective actions.

Selected District personnel will attend a training session at INP0 during December 1986.

Implementation of the programs at the Fort Calhoun Sta-tion 5;ill begin in early 1987, with full implementation planned by June 1987.

OPPD management is also concerned about the apparent lack of responsiveness to issues raised by the Senior Resident Inspector.

In order to provide improved interface and coordination between the station staff and licensing, a licensing engineer has been assigned to the Fort Calhoun Station on a full-time basis.

Mr. J. E. Gagliardo LIC-86-623 Page Two This action will enhance the District's responsiveness in addressing the Senior Resident Inspector's concerns and will provide for better tracking of commitments.

It'is' expected that these actions by OPPD will substantially reduce the number of instances of failure of personnel to follow procedures and will better ensure adherence to NRC commitments.

Sincerely, 2
