MEMORANDUM FOR: James Y. Vorse, Director, Office of h ,stigitNn, '

Field Office FROM: Richard C. Lewis, Director, DRP

SUBJECT:

CASE NO. RII 84A0023 This case relates to training of non-licensed personnel with specific reference to mechanical maintenance technicians. Applicable regulatory requirements can be found in 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion V and Grand Gulf Technical Specifica-tions Chapter 6. The requirements do not include specific acceptance criteria for training other than requirement for the licensee to implement procedures for those activities af fecting quality. Accordingly, the use of " Qual Cards" or practical f actor books is not a specific regulatory requirement for mechanical maintenance personnel. Our experience from Regional training assessments reveals certain other utilities do not incorporate this technique in their procedures.

Notwithstanding the fact that the mechanical maintenance practical factors book is not a regulatory requirement, Region II NRC expects that all training records maintained by the Mississippi Power and Light Company at the Grand Gulf facility will accurately reflect the qualifications and abilities of plant personnel, Even though practical factor books are not a specific requirement of non-licensed (p}

v training, the NRC relies upon these and other training records when conducting assessments and inspections to accurately indicate the training which has been received by Grand Gulf maintenance personnel . Inaccurate and incomplete main-tenance training records, whether or not they are related to a regulatory requirement or a licensee commitment, reflect adversely upon the integrity of the licensee and cast suspicion on all records maintained by the facility.
