SUBJECT: BROWNS FERRY - OPERATOR LICENSING WRITTEN EXAMINATION

APPROVAL 50000259/2009301, 5000260/2009301 AND 5000296/2009301

Dear Mr. Grissette:

The purpose of this letter is to confirm the final arrangements for the upcoming operator licensing written

examination at Browns Ferry Nuclear Station.

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) has completed its review of the operator license

applications submitted in connection with this examination and separately provided a list of approved

applicants to your office. The NRC staff will administer operating tests to these individuals, as applicable,

during the week of July 13, 2009. Note that any examination waivers and application denials have been

addressed in separate correspondence.

The NRC has approved the subject written examination and hereby authorizes you to administer the written

examination on July 22, 2009, in accordance with Revision 9, Supplement 1, of NUREG-1021, Operator

Licensing Examination Standards for Power Reactors.

This examination has undergone extensive review by my staff and representatives responsible for operator

training at your facility. Based on this review I have concluded that the examination meets the guidelines of

NUREG-1021 for content, operational, and discrimination validity. By administering this examination, you

also agree that it meets NUREG-1021 guidelines, and is appropriate for measuring the qualifications of

licensed operators at your facility. If you determine that this examination is not appropriate for licensing

operators at your facility, do not administer the examination and contact me at (404) 562-4550.

Please contact your Chief Examiner, Mr. Rick Baldwin, at (404) 562-4642 or Mr. Bruno Caballero at

(404) 562-4608 if you have any questions or identify any errors or changes in license level (RO or SRO) or

type of examination (partial or complete written examination and/or operating test) specified for each

applicant on the list of approved applicants.

Sincerely,

/RA/
