Joseph M. Farley Nuclear Plant Response to Request for AdditionalInformation Related to Plant Staff Oualifications Ladies and Gentlemen:
On September 8,1998, Southern Nuclear Operating Company, Inc (SNC) received a request for additional information from the NRC dated September 2,1998, related to plant staff qualifications for the Joseph M. Farley Nuclear Plant (FNP), Units 1 and 2. In that letter, the NRC stated a concern related to FNP licensing basis commitments associated with 10 CFR 55, " Operator's Licenses." The concern stems from the disparity between the FNP commitment to American National Standards Institute (ANSI) N18.1-1971 made during the licensing of the plant and the revision to 10 CFR 55, which occurred in 1987. Regulatory Guide (RG) 1.8, Revision 2, issued April 1987, endorses, with conditions, certain parts of ANSI /ANS-3.1-1981 as an acceptable approach for certain plant positions for complying with the qualification and training requirements of 10 CFR 50 and 55. Endorsement for all other positions remains with ANSI N18.1-1971, " Selection and Training of Eclear Power Plant Personnel."

Joseph M. Farley Nuclear Plant Response to Request for AdditionalInformation Related to Plant Staff Oualifications Ladies and Gentlemen:

On September 8,1998, Southern Nuclear Operating Company, Inc (SNC) received a request for additional information from the NRC dated September 2,1998, related to plant staff qualifications for the Joseph M. Farley Nuclear Plant (FNP), Units 1 and 2. In that letter, the NRC stated a concern related to FNP licensing basis commitments associated with 10 CFR 55, " Operator's Licenses." The concern stems from the disparity between the FNP commitment to American National Standards Institute (ANSI) N18.1-1971 made during the licensing of the plant and the revision to 10 CFR 55, which occurred in 1987. Regulatory Guide (RG) 1.8, Revision 2, issued April 1987, endorses, with conditions, certain parts of ANSI /ANS-3.1-1981 as an acceptable approach for certain plant positions for complying with the qualification and training requirements of 10 CFR 50 and 55. Endorsement for all other positions remains with ANSI N18.1-1971, " Selection and Training of Eclear Power Plant Personnel."

The FNP Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR) and the Technical Specifications (TSs) reflect FNP commitments made during the licensing of the plant. When 10 CFR 55 was revised in 1987, FNP modified the licensed operator training requirements to reflect the guidance provided in RG 1.8, Revision 2, " Qualification and Training of Personnel for Nuclear Power Plants." Additionally, in response to GL 87-07, SNC letter dated May 10,1990 certified that the FNP licensed operator training program is both accredited and based upon a Systems Approach to Training (SAT). The INPO accredited, SAT-based licensed operator training program implemented at PNP encompasses the applicable requirements of the later standards.

O FNP continues to have an accredited and S AT-based licensed operator training program.

Although the FSAR and TSs continue to identify the FNP licensing basis commitment with regard to licensed operator training, FNP standards meet the requirements of 10 CFR 55.
