October 7, 2008 Mr. Richard L. Anderson Vice President Duane Arnold Energy Center 3277 DAEC Road Palo, IA 52324-9785
SUBJECT:
CONFIRMATION OF INITIAL OPERATOR LICENSE EXAMINATIONS:
DUANE ARNOLD ENERGY CENTER
Dear Mr. Anderson:
In a letter dated January 10, 2008 (NG-08-0021), your staff requested we schedule initial license operator examinations during the week of June 20, 2011, or on the alternate week of June 27, 2011. We have tentatively scheduled the requested examination to occur during the alternate requested week of June 27, 2011. In addition to this examination, our calendar indicates a September 14, 2009, initial operator license examination at Duane Arnold Energy Center. On-site validation of these examinations is tentatively scheduled to occur approximately three weeks before the examination week. In the unlikely event that we are unable to support an 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.
We understand that your staff will develop the examinations unless we determine the need for the NRC to develop an examination. The letter indicated that more than nine applicants were being considered for the examinations. The examinations have been scheduled for two weeks to accommodate more than ten applicants. If the number of applicants should decrease below ten applicants, please inform us as soon as possible, as this will result in a schedule change.
Please inform us at your earliest opportunity if you discover you need to change the scheduled date for the examination.
A supplementary letter will be sent to the training department approximately 120 days prior to each of these initial examinations. The letters will inform the training department of the chief examiner=s name, 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. Dell McNeil of my staff at 630-829-9737.
In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390 of the NRC's "Rules of Practice," a copy of this letter will be available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public Document Room or from the Publicly Available Records (PARS) component of NRC's Agencywide Documents Access and
