Re: Florida Power CorporationCrystal' River Unit #3Docket No. 50-302

Dear Mr. Schwencer:

On November 7, 1975, Florida Power Corporation submitted toyou the Technical Qualifications of Mr. W. R. Nichols -Crystal River #3 Operations Supervisor, for review by yourstaff.

In a recent phone conversation with Mr. Leon Engle, he in-dicated that additional detail concerning Mr. Nichols' nuclearexperience would be required in order to complete their reviewof the Crystal River Plant Staff.

In response to Mr. Engle's request,. attached is a copy ofMr. Nichols' Technical Qualifications which have been expandedto include additional detail related to his previous nuclearjob responsibilities and experience.

Please feel free to contact this office should additional-

discussion be required.
