SUBJECT:
Dear Mr. Cruse:
Your facility reported on May 1,1998 to the NRC's Headquarters Operations Center, that an NRC-licensed operator was determined to be under the influence of alcohol following a random fitness-for-duty test. This letter is a request for information pertaining to this occurrence. Please provide, within 30 days after the date of this letter, answers to the questions listed in the enclosure and other records and information on the operator's past fitness-tor-duty, which are relevant to this occurrence. We request that any personal, proprietary, or safeguards information in your response be contained in a separate attachment and appropriately marked. The affidavit required by 10 CFR 2.790(b) must accompany your response, where applicable.
You should determine whether the operator meets the requirements of 10 CFR 55.33(a)(1).
You should ensure that: (1) the operator meets the general health requirements of ANSI /ANS-3.4-1983 (or later revision of this standard used by your facility); (2) the operator does not have a disqualifying condition under Section 5.3 of that standard; and (3) that documenta' tion describing the designated physician's conclusion that the operator meets the requirements of ANSI /ANS-3.4 is available for review by the NRC. If a conditional license is requested per 10 CFR 55.25, that condition should be documented on NRC Form 396 and transmitted to the NRC.
1 If you determine that the operator no longer meets the medical qualifications described in 10 CFR 55.33(a)(1), then, in accordance with 10 CFR 55.25, you must notify the NRC, via j
letter, of the operator's permanent incapacitation. For example, you'must notify the NRC if you determine, based on your employee assistance program in consultation with your designated physician, that the operator can no longer meet the medical criteria of ANSl/ANS-3.4.
