UNITE D S TATE S NUC LEAR RE GULATOR Y C OMMI S SI ON R E G IO N I V 1600 EAST LAMAR BLVD AR L I NGTON , TEXAS 7 601 1- 4511 December 19, 2013 Kevin Mulligan Site Vice President Operations Entergy Operations, Inc.
Grand Gulf Nuclear Station P.O. Box 756 Port Gibson, MS 39150
SUBJECT:
GRAND GULF NUCLEAR STATION LICENSED OPERATOR POSITIVE FITNESS-FOR-DUTY TEST
Dear Mr. Mulligan:
On December 11, 2013, in accordance with 10 CFR 26.719, your facility reported that an NRC-licensed operator tested positive following a random fitness-for-duty test, Event Notification 49625. You also informed us that this same licensed operator had tested positive on July 18, 2013, Event Notification 49210. Although we have obtained preliminary information, this letter is a formal request for information pertaining to these occurrences. Please provide answers to the questions listed in the enclosure and other records and information on this operator's fitness-for-duty that are relevant to these occurrences, within 30 days from the date of this letter. If you are unable to meet this deadline, please notify us no later than 15 days from the date of this letter, with the reasons for the delay and a proposed date of submittal. We request that any personal, proprietary, or Safeguards Information in your response be contained in a separate enclosure and appropriately marked. The affidavit required by 10 CFR 2.390(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; (2) the operator does not have a disqualifying condition under Section 5.3 of that standard; and (3) documentation describing the designated physician's conclusion that the operator meets the requirements of ANSI/ANS-3.4-1983 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.
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 in writing with a letter of the operator's permanent incapacitation. For example, you must notify the NRC if, based on your employee assistance program in consultation with your designated physician, you determine that the operator can no longer meet the medical criteria of ANSI/ANS-3.4-1983.
K. Mulligan The NRC will evaluate the information in your response to this letter to determine if further action is warranted pursuant to 10 CFR Part 50 or Part 55. The information supplied will be maintained in NRC Privacy Systems of Records-16 and will be subject to the Privacy Act.
Please provide a copy of this letter, as well as your response to this letter, to the operator.
If you are unwilling to provide this information to the operator for any reason, the NRC will provide the information to the operator when it is available as part of the operators docket file.
If you have any questions concerning this matter, please contact Vince Gaddy, Chief, Operations Branch (817) 200-1159. The requested information should be sent to Mr. Gaddys attention at NRC Region IV, 1600 East Lamar Blvd., Arlington, TX 76011-4511. Your cooperation is appreciated.
In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390 of the NRC's "Rules of Practice," a copy of this letter and its enclosure will be available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public Document Room or from the Publicly Available Records (PARS) component of NRC's Agencywide Documents Access Management System (ADAMS). ADAMS is accessible from the NRC Web site at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html.
