Thank you for your response of October 2,1987, to our Notice of Violation,
I
issued on September 2,1987, concerning activities conducted at your Hatch
facility.
We have evaluated your response and found that it meets the
requirements of 10 CFR 2.201.
j
We have carefully reviewed your request to reduce the Severity Level for
Violation A (87-18-05) from Level IV to Level V and have concluded that the
violation was appropriately classified.
Your position is that the violation
has minor safety significance since the individuals who had not received annual
training had initial training, had participated in drills and exercises, and
it was believed then could have adequately performed their responsibilities.
Since an individual is not frequently called upon to implement the emergency
plan implementing procedures, it is important that the system established to
maintain proficiency be fully implemented, including annual training.
We find
that failure to perform this training is a matter of more than minor safety
significance.
In addition, your response stated that the violation had been previously
identified and corrective actions were planned. This is acknowledged; however,
it was also noted that there have been several findings addressing emergency
organization training and/or the documentation thereof identified by both the
NRC (1984-1985) and your own audit results (1982-1986). As referenced in your
response to the Notice of Violation, the recent Quality Assurance Audit Finding
(AFR 87-EP-1/10) identified during February further indicated a need for
attention to this training.
In that this matter had still not been fully
corrected as of July 1987, the violation does not meet the Enforcement Policy
criteria for exercising discretion.
We will examine the implementation of your corrective actions during future
inspections. We appreciate your cooperation in this matter.
Sincerely,
dim W v m %
