SUBJECT:

Dear Mr.Eddington:
In a telephone conversation on September 29, 2005, between Messrs. Dave Tune, Operations
Training Superintendent, and Michael Murphy, NRC Chief Examiner, arrangements were made
for the administration of a licensing written retake examination at the Cooper Nuclear Station on

As agreed during the telephone conversation, your staff will prepare and administer the
examination based on the guidelines in Revision 9 of NUREG-1021, Operator Licensing
Examination Standards for Power Reactors. The NRCs regional office will discuss with your
staff any changes that might be necessary before the examination is administered.
Pursuant to Title 10, Section 55.40(b)(3), of the Code of Federal Regulations, 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. The examination 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 examination
to be rescheduled.
In order to conduct the requested written examination, it will be necessary for your staff to
provide adequate space and accommodations in accordance with ES-402.

in effect while the written examination is being administered.
