| PEACH BOTTOM ATOMIC POWER STATION, UNITS 2 AND 3 LICENSED OPERATOR POSITIVE FITNESS-FOR-DUTY TEST
| |
| | |
| ==Dear Mr. Navin:==
| |
| | |
| On November 4, 2017, your facility reported to the NRC via 10 CFR 26.719 that an NRC-licensed operator tested positive following a fitness-for-duty test administered under 10 CFR 26.31(c) on November 3, 2017 (Event Report 53053). Although we have obtained preliminary information, this letter is a formal request for information pertaining to this occurrence. Within 30 days of the date of this letter, please provide responses to the questions listed in the enclosure. In addition, please provide other records and information on this operator's fitness-for-duty that are relevant to this occurrence. If you are unable to meet this deadline, please notify us no later than 15 days from the date of this letter, with the reasons for the delay and a proposed date of submittal.
| |
| We request that any personal privacy, proprietary, or safeguards information in your response be contained in a separate enclosure and appropriately marked. The affidavit required by 10 CFR 2.390(b) must accompany your response, where applicable.
| |
| | |
| You should determine whether the operator meets the requirements of 10 CFR 55.33(a)(1). You should ensure that: (1) the operator meets the general health requirements of ANSI/ANS-3.4-1983; (2) the operator does not have a disqualifying condition under Section 5.3 of that standard; and (3) documentation describing the designated physician's conclusion that the operator meets the requirements of ANSI/ANS-3.4-1983 is available for review by the NRC. If a conditional license is requested per 10 CFR 55.25, that condition should be documented on NRC Form 396, "Certification of Medical Examinat ion by Facility Licensee," and sent to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, ATTN: Regional Administrator, Region I, 2100 Renaissance Blvd., Suite 100, King of Prussia, PA 19406-2713.
| |
| | |
| If you determine that the operator no longer meets the medical qualifications described in 10 CFR 55.33(a)(1), then, in accordance with 10 CFR 55.25, you must notify the NRC, in writing, of the operator's permanent incapacitation. For example, you must notify the NRC if you determine, based on your employee assistance program in consultation with your designated physician, that the operator can no longer meet the medical criteria of ANSI/ANS-3.4-1983.

| |
| | |
| Please provide a copy of this letter, as well as your response to this letter, to the operator. If you
| |
| | |
| are unwilling to provide this information to the operator for any reason, the NRC will provide the information to the operator when it is available as part of the operator's docket file.
| |
| | |
| If you have any questions concerning this matter, please contact Donald E. Jackson, Chief, Operations Branch, (610) 337-5306. The requested information should be sent to Mr. Jackson's attention at the NRC Region I Office, 2100 Renaissance Boulevard, Suite 100, King of Prussia, PA 19406-2713. Your cooperation is appreciated.
