CNS 13.2 TRAINING 13.2.1 GENERAL PROGRAM DESCRIPTION The principal objective of the nuclear station training program is to assure-qualification of all station personnel through effective training. The program | |||
-is also designed to accommodate future growth and meet commitments to and com-ply with applicable established regulations. | |||
Qualification, with respect to training is indicated by successful completion of prescribed formal training, demonstration of the ability to perform assigned work or tasks competently with a minimum of supervision, and where required by regulation, holding a current and valid license issued by the agency esta-blishing the requirement. | |||
lTheVicePresidentProductionSupporthasoverallresponsibilityforthead-ministration and conduct of the training program. The station Manager is-responsible for the timely and effective development of assigned personnel. | |||
The station Training and Safety Coordinator is responsible for coordinating the day-to-day support activities for all training. The Nuclear Production Department's Nuclear General Services Group, with input and assistance from applicable General Office technical staff, assists the station Manager in accomplishing related training responsibilities. | |||
Training is developed and conducted according to a systematic plan as shown on Figure 13.2.1-1. The plan provides the employee with formal training to esta-blish the knowledge foundation and structured on-the-job training to perfect work performance skills. Special training is provided, as required, to accom-modate further employee growth in specific areas. Periodic and general station training aid in maintaining these knowledge and skill components. | |||
The nuclear station traiaing program is designed to prepare initial and replace-ment station personnel for safe, reliable and efficient operation of the nuclear facility. The program is intended to meet or exceed regulatory requirements. | |||
Appropriate training for personnel of various training and experience back-grounds is provided. The level at which an employee initially enters the training program is determined by an evaluation of the employee's past exper-ience and level of ability. | |||
Training instructors who teach systems, integrated responses, transient, and simulator courses to operations personnel at Catawba either have previously held an SR0 license or will successfully complete an SRO certification. Instructors are required to participate in periodic refresher /requalification training to maintain current knowledge of plant modifications procedural changes and administrative policies. This training will parallel the operator requalifica-tion program described in Section 13.2.2.3. | |||
13.2-1 Rev. 7 | |||
CNS 13.4 REVIEW AND AUDIT In matters of nuclear safety, both onsite and off-site review of station startup, operation, maintenance and technical matters is performed. Off-site review is performed by the Nuclear Safety Review Board (NSRB) whereas onsite review is performed by the Nuclear Station Safety Review Group (SRG) and by other designated, qualified individuals. This review process com-mences at least six months prior to the initial operation of a station, so as to include preoperational testing and checkout of the station. Guidance in the development of the review program for test and operation is derived from ANSI N18.7-1976, Administrative Controls for Nuclear Power Plants. | |||
13.4.1 ONSITE REVIEW Qualified individuals from the station supervisory staff are assigned to review procedures, procedure changes, Technical Specifications changes and plant modifications involving nuclear safety. These individuals are pre-viously designated by the station Manager to perform these reviews. The | |||
( .- | |||
final approval of the above reviews is by the station Manager or other cenior station management. In addition, for each review conducted, a deter-mination is made as to whether or not additional cross-disciplinary review is necessary. If concluded that it is necessary, the additional review would be performed by the appropriate designated station review personnel. | |||
Incident investigation including LERs and special reviews are perfcrmed by # | |||
the SRG or other designated qualified individuals. | |||
13.4.2 INDEPENDENT REVIEW | |||
''3.4.2.1 0FFSITE The Nuclear Safety Review Board (NSRB) is established to verify that the operation of a station is performed in a safe manner consistent with Company. | |||
policy, approved operating procedures and license provisions; to review impor-tant proposed station modifications, tests and procedures; to verify that re-portable occurrences are promptly investigated and corrected in a manner which reduces the probability of occurrence; and to detect trends which may not be apparent to a day-to-day observer. The Board reports its findings and re-commendations to the Executive Vice President, Power Operations; Vice President, l Nu:: lear Production; and the applicable station Manager. | |||
The membership of the NSRB collectively has the competence required to review problems in the following areas: Nuclear power station operations, nuclear engineering,' chemistry, radio-chemistry, metallurgy, instrumentation and control, radiological safety, mechanical engineering and electrical engineering. | |||
and administrative control and quality assurance practices. The NSRB is com-posed of not less than five persons, of whom no more than one is a member of the station organization. A quorum consists of three members and must include either the chairman or his designated alternate. | |||
Formal meetings are held at least semi-annually. More frequent meetings are held if necessary. | |||
13.4-1 Rev. 7 | |||
CNS 13.5 STATION PROCEDURES 13.5.1 ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEDURES 13.5.1.1 Conformance With Regulatory Guides Regulatory Guide 1.33, Revision 2, " Quality Assurance Program Requirements," | |||
and ANSI N18.7-1976, " Standard for Administrative Controls for Nuclear Power Plants", is being used for the preparation of administrative and plant pro-cedures. | |||
13.5.1.2 Preparation of Procedures For operating, emergency, maintenance, instrument, periodic test, chemistry, radioactive waste management, health physics, emergency preparedness and modification procedures, each procedure is assigned to a member cf the station staff for development. Initial procedure drafts are reviewed by members of lthestationstaff;theNuclearProductionDepartmentGeneralOffice,theDesign Engineering Department and other departments within Duke; and by personnel from the NSSS supplier and other vendors; as appropriate. Following resolution of review comments, if any, a revised procedure is prepared and forwarded to a previously designated qualified reviewer for review and comment. This quali-fied reviewer also makes the determination whether or not any additional, cross-disciplinary review is required. After all required and appropriate reviews have been completed a final version of a procedure is prepared. Upon approval by the station Manager; or by the Superintendent of Operations, Superintendent of Maintenance or Superintendent of Technical Services as previously designated, a procedure becomes available for use. Additional discussion of procedure preparation control is contained in Section 17.2.6 of Topical Report, DUKE-1A, Quality Assurance Program and in the Technical Specifications. A typical schedule for completion of station procedures is given in Figure 13.5.1-1. | |||
Administrative, annunciator response, security and material control procedures are prepared by qualified personnel, reviewed as necessary and approved by the station Manager or his designee prior to use. | |||
13.5.1.3 Administrative Procedures Station administrative procedures (Station Directives) are written as necessary to control station testing, maintenance, and operating activjties. Listed below are several areas for which administrative procedures are written, including principle features: | |||
(a) The reactor operator's authority and responsibility: The reactor operator is given the authority to manipulate controls which directly or indirectly affect core reactivity, including a reactor trip if he deems necessary. He is also assigned the responsibility for knowing the limits and setpoints associated with safety-related equipment and systems as specified in the Tcchnical Specifications and designated in the operating procedures. | |||

CNS 13.2 TRAINING 13.2.1 GENERAL PROGRAM DESCRIPTION The principal objective of the nuclear station training program is to assure-qualification of all station personnel through effective training. The program
-is also designed to accommodate future growth and meet commitments to and com-ply with applicable established regulations.
Qualification, with respect to training is indicated by successful completion of prescribed formal training, demonstration of the ability to perform assigned work or tasks competently with a minimum of supervision, and where required by regulation, holding a current and valid license issued by the agency esta-blishing the requirement.
lTheVicePresidentProductionSupporthasoverallresponsibilityforthead-ministration and conduct of the training program. The station Manager is-responsible for the timely and effective development of assigned personnel.
The station Training and Safety Coordinator is responsible for coordinating the day-to-day support activities for all training. The Nuclear Production Department's Nuclear General Services Group, with input and assistance from applicable General Office technical staff, assists the station Manager in accomplishing related training responsibilities.
Training is developed and conducted according to a systematic plan as shown on Figure 13.2.1-1. The plan provides the employee with formal training to esta-blish the knowledge foundation and structured on-the-job training to perfect work performance skills. Special training is provided, as required, to accom-modate further employee growth in specific areas. Periodic and general station training aid in maintaining these knowledge and skill components.
The nuclear station traiaing program is designed to prepare initial and replace-ment station personnel for safe, reliable and efficient operation of the nuclear facility. The program is intended to meet or exceed regulatory requirements.
Appropriate training for personnel of various training and experience back-grounds is provided. The level at which an employee initially enters the training program is determined by an evaluation of the employee's past exper-ience and level of ability.
Training instructors who teach systems, integrated responses, transient, and simulator courses to operations personnel at Catawba either have previously held an SR0 license or will successfully complete an SRO certification. Instructors are required to participate in periodic refresher /requalification training to maintain current knowledge of plant modifications procedural changes and administrative policies. This training will parallel the operator requalifica-tion program described in Section 13.2.2.3.
13.2-1 Rev. 7
CNS 13.4 REVIEW AND AUDIT In matters of nuclear safety, both onsite and off-site review of station startup, operation, maintenance and technical matters is performed. Off-site review is performed by the Nuclear Safety Review Board (NSRB) whereas onsite review is performed by the Nuclear Station Safety Review Group (SRG) and by other designated, qualified individuals. This review process com-mences at least six months prior to the initial operation of a station, so as to include preoperational testing and checkout of the station. Guidance in the development of the review program for test and operation is derived from ANSI N18.7-1976, Administrative Controls for Nuclear Power Plants.
13.4.1 ONSITE REVIEW Qualified individuals from the station supervisory staff are assigned to review procedures, procedure changes, Technical Specifications changes and plant modifications involving nuclear safety. These individuals are pre-viously designated by the station Manager to perform these reviews. The
( .-
final approval of the above reviews is by the station Manager or other cenior station management. In addition, for each review conducted, a deter-mination is made as to whether or not additional cross-disciplinary review is necessary. If concluded that it is necessary, the additional review would be performed by the appropriate designated station review personnel.
Incident investigation including LERs and special reviews are perfcrmed by #
the SRG or other designated qualified individuals.
13.4.2 INDEPENDENT REVIEW
3.4.2.1 0FFSITE The Nuclear Safety Review Board (NSRB) is established to verify that the operation of a station is performed in a safe manner consistent with Company.
policy, approved operating procedures and license provisions; to review impor-tant proposed station modifications, tests and procedures; to verify that re-portable occurrences are promptly investigated and corrected in a manner which reduces the probability of occurrence; and to detect trends which may not be apparent to a day-to-day observer. The Board reports its findings and re-commendations to the Executive Vice President, Power Operations; Vice President, l Nu:: lear Production; and the applicable station Manager.
The membership of the NSRB collectively has the competence required to review problems in the following areas: Nuclear power station operations, nuclear engineering,' chemistry, radio-chemistry, metallurgy, instrumentation and control, radiological safety, mechanical engineering and electrical engineering.
and administrative control and quality assurance practices. The NSRB is com-posed of not less than five persons, of whom no more than one is a member of the station organization. A quorum consists of three members and must include either the chairman or his designated alternate.
Formal meetings are held at least semi-annually. More frequent meetings are held if necessary.

CNS 13.5 STATION PROCEDURES 13.5.1 ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEDURES 13.5.1.1 Conformance With Regulatory Guides Regulatory Guide 1.33, Revision 2, " Quality Assurance Program Requirements,"
and ANSI N18.7-1976, " Standard for Administrative Controls for Nuclear Power Plants", is being used for the preparation of administrative and plant pro-cedures.
13.5.1.2 Preparation of Procedures For operating, emergency, maintenance, instrument, periodic test, chemistry, radioactive waste management, health physics, emergency preparedness and modification procedures, each procedure is assigned to a member cf the station staff for development. Initial procedure drafts are reviewed by members of lthestationstaff;theNuclearProductionDepartmentGeneralOffice,theDesign Engineering Department and other departments within Duke; and by personnel from the NSSS supplier and other vendors; as appropriate. Following resolution of review comments, if any, a revised procedure is prepared and forwarded to a previously designated qualified reviewer for review and comment. This quali-fied reviewer also makes the determination whether or not any additional, cross-disciplinary review is required. After all required and appropriate reviews have been completed a final version of a procedure is prepared. Upon approval by the station Manager; or by the Superintendent of Operations, Superintendent of Maintenance or Superintendent of Technical Services as previously designated, a procedure becomes available for use. Additional discussion of procedure preparation control is contained in Section 17.2.6 of Topical Report, DUKE-1A, Quality Assurance Program and in the Technical Specifications. A typical schedule for completion of station procedures is given in Figure 13.5.1-1.
Administrative, annunciator response, security and material control procedures are prepared by qualified personnel, reviewed as necessary and approved by the station Manager or his designee prior to use.
13.5.1.3 Administrative Procedures Station administrative procedures (Station Directives) are written as necessary to control station testing, maintenance, and operating activjties. Listed below are several areas for which administrative procedures are written, including principle features:
(a) The reactor operator's authority and responsibility: The reactor operator is given the authority to manipulate controls which directly or indirectly affect core reactivity, including a reactor trip if he deems necessary. He is also assigned the responsibility for knowing the limits and setpoints associated with safety-related equipment and systems as specified in the Tcchnical Specifications and designated in the operating procedures.
