MEETING SUMMARY

Licensee: Georgia Power Company

Facility: Hatch Nuclear Plant, Units 1 and 2

Docket Nos: 50-321 and 50-366

SUBJECT: HATCH REQUALIFICATION EXAMINATIONS

On May 24,1985, _ representatives of Georgia Power Company (GPC) met with NRC

Region II personnel in Atlanta, Georgia, to discuss the requalification exami-

nation conducted at Plant Hatch during the week of March 11, 1985,

(0L-50-321/85-01). The meeting was held at the request of Georgia Power Company.

The purpose was to appeal the resolutions from the April 23, 1985 meeting between

the Region II staff and GPC.

Agenda items were unchanged from the April 23-

meeting. An attendance list is attached as Attachment A to this summary.

After opening remarks by Mr. J. Badgett, Mr. C. T. Moore presented Georgia

Power's analysis of selected examination items.

This analysis was limited to

Section 8 of the Senior Operator written examination (Administrative

Procedures, Conditions, and Limitations).

It was the opinion of GPC that this

-section was the most substantive for displaying items whose impact was signifi-

cant.

The specific methodology by which the evaluation was made, the deduced

implications on the accelerated-requalification training program, and the resul-

tant concerns with specific questions (to include corrective recommendations)

constituted the background information provided by the briefing.

The Region's

response (letter of May 3, 1985) was then summarized and rebutted.

.

Attachment B is the revised answer key with justification, for Question 8.04.

For all other questions, the examination and answer key will' remain unchanged.

All questions are considered to be both relevant and definitive.

The specific

comments presented previously by the staff are still considered to be valid and

appropriate.

As a generic statement, aids and support devices do not remove the

onus of responsibility from the licensed operator.

The requirements for

familiarity with, and understanding of, the basis and application of operating

procedures remain unchanged.

Similarly, candidates are expected to have a

thorough knowledge of Technical Specifications, the bases for the requirements

and means to comply with the requirements.

Review of individual performance on the written exam shows that no final statuses

will be_ changed based upon the answer key modifications made.

Individuals will,

however, be contacted concerning their revised scores.
