CONFIRMATION OF INlTlAUREQUALlFlCATlONOPERATOR LICENSE EXAMINATIONS: DRESDEN STATION
Dear Mr. Skolds,
In a letter dated July 18, 2002 (RS-02-123) your staff requested we schedule an initial license operator examination in June 2004. In a subsequent telephone conversation on June 19, 2003, between Mr. D. McNeil of my staff and Mr. M. Otten, Dresden Station ILT Group Lead, the requested examination was tentatively scheduled to occur during the week of August 16, 2004.
On-site validation of the examination will occur at the station approximately 3 weeks before the examination administration. In the unlikely event that we are unable to support the examination during the scheduled weeks, we will inform you immediately upon discovery of such conditions and make arrangements to administer the examination at a mutually acceptable date.
As stated in your letter, your staff will develop the examination. Mr. Otten indicated that you are training approximately eight candidates for the examination. Mr. Otten confirmed that the week of May 31, 2004, scheduled for the biennial requalification program inspection (IP 71111.I 1 B),
was still within the anticipated requalificationexamination administration cycle. Please inform us at your earliest opportunity if you discover you need to change the scheduled,dates for either of the examinations.
A supplementary letter will be sent to the training department approximately 120 days prior to the initial examination informing them of the chief examiners name. The letter will also outline examination security expectations, list the materials required by the NRC to conduct the examination, reconfirm the examination dates, and reconfirm the number of candidates you have in the training program. If you have any questions concerning this information, please contact Mr. C. Phillips of my staff at 630-829-9739.

Response to NRC Regulatory Issue Summary 2003-14 Preparation and Scheduling of Operator Licensing Examinations
Reference:
NRC Regulatory Issue Summaty (RIS) 2003-74, Preparation and Scheduling of Operator Licensing Examinations, dated August 27,2003.
In the Reference letter, the NRC requested licensees to voluntarily submit a response concerning initial operator licensing examination needs, lnduding an estimate of the number of applicants to be examined and intentions regarding the preparationof the examinations.
Attachments 1through 10 provide the responses to RIS 2003-14 for the Exelon Generation Company, LLC (fkelon) and AmerGen Energy Company, U C (AmerGen) plants identified above.
The operator licensing examination informationfor each facility is provided on a separate NRC Form 536.
During Calendar Year CY 2005, a total of 6 candidates are expected to take the dual site Limited Senior Reactor Operator (LSRO) initial license examination as indicated in Attachment 6. The schedule for the indicated exam is as follows: the written exam and part of the operating exam will be given at Limerick Generating Station (LGS); the remainder of the operating exam will be completed at Peach bottom Atomic Power Station (PBAPS). Since the LSRO exam is a dual site exam that invdves both LGS and PBAPS, rather than repeatingthe same information on both attachments, the exam scheduling information is provided on Attachment 6 for LGS only and Attachment 8 for PBAPS references Attachment 6.
Ifyou have any questions or require additional information, please do not hesitate to contact us.

DRESDEN NUCLEAR POWER STATION CONFIRMATION OF INITIAL OPERATOR LICENSE EXAMINATIONS
Dear Mr. Crane:
In a letter dated September 26, 2003, your staff responded to NRC Regulatory Issue Summary (RIS) 2003-14, "Preparation and Scheduling of Operator Licensing Examinations,"for all Exelon Nuclear Stations. This letter responds to the request for initial license examinations at Dresden Nuclear Power Station, Units 1 and 2.
Initial license examinations were requested during the week of August 16, 2004, during the week of August 22, 2005, and during the week of August 21, 2006. The initial license examination scheduled for August 16,2004, has been scheduled and a chief examiner assigned to the examination. Because of a heavy work load, the examination requested for August 2005 was rescheduledto the week of September 19,2005, per a telephone conversation between Mr. M. Carey, Dresden Station Operations Training Manager, and Mr. D. McNeil of my staff. That examination has been scheduled and a chief examiner assigned to that examination. The examination requested for August 2006 will be scheduled as we approach that date.
On-site validation of the examinations will occur at Dresden Nuclear Power Station approximately 3 weeks before the examination administration date. In the unlikely event that we are unable to support the examination during the scheduled weeks, we will inform you immediately upon discovery of such conditions and make arrangements to administer the examinations at a mutually acceptable date.
As indicated in your RIS response letter, your staff will develop the examination. Your letter also indicated that you are training less than 10 candidates for each of the examinations.
Please inform us if the number of candidates rises above 10 as this will impact the examination schedule.
A supplementary letter will be sent to the training department approximately 120 days prior to the initial examination informing them of the chief examiner's name. The letter will also outline examination security expectations, list the materials required by the NRC to conduct the examination, reconfirm the examination dates, and reconfirm the number of candidates you have in the training program. If you have any questions concerning this information, please contact Mr. C. Phillips of my staff at 630-829-9739.

Dear Mr. Crane:
In a telephone conversation on March 31, 2004, between Mr. S. Frey, Initial Operator License Examination Lead, and Mr. M. Bielby, Region Ill NRC Chief Examiner, arrangements were made for the administration of licensing examinations at the Dresden Nuclear Power Station the week of August 16, 2004. In addition, the NRC will make an examination validation visit to your facility the week of July 26, 2004.
As agreed during the telephone conversation, your staff will prepare the examinations based on the guidelines in Revision 9 of NUREG-I 021, "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 will be necessary for your staff to furnish the examination outlines by June 2, 2004. The written examinations, operating tests, and the supporting reference materials identified in Attachment 2 of ES-201 will be due by June 30, 2004.
Pursuant to I O CFR 55.40(b)(3), an authorized representative of the facility licensee shall approve the outlines, examinations, and tests 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.
In order to conduct the requested written examinations and operating tests, it will be necessary for your staff to provide adequate space and accommodations in accordance with ES-402, and to make the simulation facility available on the dates noted above. In accordance with ES-302, your staff should retain the original simulator performance data (e.g., system pressures, temperatures, and levels) generated during the dynamic operating tests until the examination results are final.
Appendix E of NUREG-I021 contains a number of NRC policies and guidelines that will be in effect while the written examinations and operating tests are being administered.
C. Crane To permit timely NRC review and evaluation, your staff should submit preliminary reactor operator and senior reactor operator license applications (Office of Management and Budget (OMB) approval number 3150-0090), medical certifications (OMB approval number 3150-0024),
and waiver requests (if any) (OMB approval number 3150-0090) at least 30 days before the first examination date. If the applications are not received at least 30 days before the examination date, a postponement may be necessary. Signed applications certifying that all training has been completed should be submitted at least 14 days before the first examination date.
This letter contains information collections that are subject to the Papenvork Reducfion Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.). These information collections were approved by the Office of Management and Budget, approval number 3150-0018, which expires on June 30,2006.
The public reporting burden for this collection is estimated to average 500 hours0.00579 days <br />0.139 hours <br />8.267196e-4 weeks <br />1.9025e-4 months <br /> per response, including the time for reviewing instructions,gathering and maintaining the data needed, writing the examinations, and completing and reviewing the collection of information. Send comments on any aspect of this collection of information, including suggestions for reducing the burden, to the Information and Records Management Branch (T-6 F33), U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Washington, D.C. 20555-0001, or by Internet electronic mail at BJSI@NRC.GOV; and to the Desk Officer, Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, NEOB-10202, (3150-0018), Office of Management and Budget, Washington, D.C. 20503-0001.
The NRC may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number.
Thank you for your cooperation in this matter. Mr. Frey has been advised of the policies and guidelines referenced in this letter. If you have any questions regarding the NRC's examination procedures and guidelines, please contact M. Bielby at 630-829-9762 , or me at 630-829-9631.
