Gentlemen:
SUBJECT: NRC INSPECTION REPORT NOS. 50-348/89-19 AND 50-364/89-19-
This refers to- the; Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) inspection conducted
by B.~ ' Breslau on August 21-25, 1989.
The inspection included' a review' of
'
activities authorized for your, Farley Units 1 and 2 facility.
At the conclu-
h
sion of' the inspection, the findings were discussed with t ose members of your
staff identified in the enclosed Inspection Report.
Areas examined during the inspection are. identified in the report.
Within
these areas, the inspection consisted of selective examinations of procedures
and representative records, interviews with personnel, and observation of
activities in progress.
Within the scope of the inspection, no violations or deviations were identified.
We direct your attention to areas where improvements are needed.
We observed
that the licensed operator performance during simulator training did not meet
- our expectations.
Specifically, deficiencies were noted. in the areas of
communications, normal operations, immediate operator actions, and accident
mitigation strategies.
Please respond, within 30 days,- with your plans to
address. these areas. - Additionally, we feel staffing levels in the Training
Department could be improved to allow more effective preparation time for
classroom instructions and to allow utilization of more than one instructor in
the simulator, thereby achieving greater effectiveness in simulator training.
!In accordance with Section 2.790 of the NRC's " Rules of Practice," Part 2,
Title 10 Code of Federal Regulations, a copy of this letter and its enclosure
will be placed in the NRC Public Document Room.
