SUBJECT:
KEWAUNEE NUCLEAR POWER PLANT SCHEDULING OF INITIAL OPERATOR LICENSE WRITTEN RETAKE EXAMINATION
Dear Mr. Coutu:
In a telephone conversation on June 16, 2004, between Mr. Wyatt Godes, Kewaunee Nuclear Power Plant Initial Operator License Training Supervisor, and Mr. Dell McNeil, Reactor Inspector, arrangements were made for the administration of a written re-take operator license examination at the Kewaunee Nuclear Power Plant the week of August 16, 2004.
As agreed during the telephone conversation, your staff will prepare the examinations based on the guidelines in Revision 8, Supplement 1, of NUREG-1021, "Operator Licensing Examination Standards for Power Reactors." The NRC regional office will discuss with your staff any changes that might be necessary before the examinations are administered.
To meet the above schedule, it was necessary for your staff to furnish the examination outlines by June 21, 2004. We have received the examination outline. The written examination and the supporting reference materials identified in Attachment 2 of ES-201 will be due by July 26, 2004. Pursuant to 10 CFR 55.40(b)(3), an authorized representative of the facility licensee shall approve the outline and written examination before they are submitted to the NRC for review and approval. All materials shall be complete and ready to use. Any delay in receiving the required examination and reference materials, or the submittal of inadequate or incomplete materials, may cause the examinations to be rescheduled.
Appendix E of NUREG-1021 contains a number of NRC policies and guidelines that will be in effect while the written examination is being administered.
To permit timely NRC review and evaluation, your staff should submit a preliminary reactor operator license application (Office of Management and Budget (OMB) approval number 3150-0090), medical certification (OMB approval number 3150-0024), and waiver requests (for the operating test) (OMB approval number 3150-0090) at least 30 days before the examination date. If the application is not received at least 30 days before the examination date, a postponement may be necessary. A signed application certifying that all training has been completed should be submitted at least 14 days before the examination date.
