No violations or deviations were identifie . Knowledge and Performance of Duties (Training) (82206)

Pursuant to 10CFR50.47(b)(15) and 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix E, Section IV.F, this area was inspected to determine whether emergency response personnel understood their emergency response roles and could perform their assigned function The inspector reviewed the description (in the Emergency Plan) of the training program, training procedures, and selected lesson plans, and interviewed members of the training staff. Based on these reviews and interviews, the inspector determined that the licensee had an emergency training progrcm, but found it difficult to determine the quantitative and qualitative requirements of the program. This was discussed in detail both before and during the exit interview with key licensee personnel. The inconsistencies in the requirements of EP training from that documented in the Emergency Plan and PEP 04.3 versus the training actually being conducted for some members of the emergency organization (specified alternates to the Dose Projection Team Leader were used as examples) was discussed in detail. The licensee provided~ docanentation of how the emergency training was being reviewed for needed improvement and that the formal classroom training being conducted was actually a part of this j improvement progra Based on the licensee's commitment to continue improving and better documenting the emergency training program, the {

inspector identified the training inconsistencies as an inspector followup item (50-325/87-34-01,50-324/87-33-01). 4 No violations or deviations were identifie . LicenseeAudits(82210)

Pursuant to 10 CFR 50.47(b)(14) and (16) and 10 CFR 50.54(t), this area was inspected to determine whether the licensee had performed an independent review or audit of the emergency preparedness progra Records of audits of the program were reviewed. The records showed that independent audits of the program were conducted by the corporate Quality Assurance Department on August 25-29, 1986, and August 24-28, 1987, and documented in Report Nos. QAA/0021-86-07 and QAA/0021-87-07, respectivel These audits fulfilled the 12-month frequency for such audits. The inspector noted that the 1986 audit report did not include an evaluation for adequacy of interfaces with State and local governments. When the inspector requested this information from the licensee, he was provided a preliminary finding of the 1987 audit report (the final 1987 audit report was faxed to the site during the week of the inspection). The finding ;

was: "none of the six audits conducted by CQA prior to 1987 addresses the )

adequacy of the licensee State and local government interface." The !

inspector stated this failure to perform an evaluation for adequacy of '

interfaces with State and local governments as required by 10 CFR 50.54(t)

would not be reported as a violation in accordance with the provisions of i
