UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION REGION I 475 ALLENDALE ROAD KING OF PRUSSIA, PA 19406-1415 November 23, 2010 Mr. John Carlin Vice President R. E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant, LLC 1503 Lake Road Ontario, NY 14519

SUBJECT:

SENIOR REACTOR OPERATOR AND REACTOR OPERATOR WRITTEN RETAKE EXAMINATIONS - R. E. GINNA NUCLEAR POWER PLANT, LLC

Dear Mr. Carlin:

In a telephone conversation on November 3,2010, between Mr. D Silk, Senior Operations Engineer, and Mr. R. Adams, Supervisor Operations Initial Training, arrangements were made for the administration of the written retake licensing examinations at Ginna, during the week of January 24, 2011.

As agreed during the telephone conversation, your staff will prepare the written examinations based on the guidelines in NUREG-1021 , "Operator Licensing Examination Standards for Power Reactors," Revision 9, Supplement 1. 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 written examination outlines by December 6, 2010. The written examinations and the supporting reference materials will be due by January 3,2011. Pursuant to Title 10, Section 10 CFR 55.40(b)(3), of the Code of Federal Regulations 10 CFR 55.40(b)(3), an authorized representative of the facility licensee shall approve the outlines and examinations before they are submitted to the NRC for review and approval. All materials should be complete and ready-to-use. We request that any personal, proprietary, sensitive unclassified, or safeguards information in your response be contained in a separate enclosure and appropriately marked. Any delay in receiving the required examinations 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, it will be necessary for your staff to provide adequate space and accommodations in accordance with ES-402.

Appendix E of NUREG-1021 contains a number of NRC policies and guidelines that will be in effect while the written examinations are being administered.

To permit timely NRC review and evaluation, your staff should submit preliminary senior reactor operator license application (Office of Management and Budget (OMB) approval number 3150-0090), medical certification (OMB approval number 3150-0024), and waiver requests (OMB approval number 3150-0090) at least 30 days before the examination date. Because your applicant for this NRC written retake examination previously passed the operating test, administered on June 21 - 25,2010, you may request waivers of that portion. If the application

J. Carlin 2 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.

This letter contains information collections that are subject to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.). TheOMB, under approval number 3150-0018 approved these information collections. The public reporting burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 250 hours0.00289 days <br />0.0694 hours <br />4.133598e-4 weeks <br />9.5125e-5 months <br /> per response, including the time for reviewing instructions, gathering and maintaining the data needed, 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, DC 20555-0001, or by Internet electronic mail at BJS1@NRC.gov; and to the Desk Officer, Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, NEOB-10202, (3150-0018), Office of Management and Budget, Washington, DC 20503.

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.

In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390 of the NRC's "Rules of Practice," a copy of this letter and its enclosures will be available electronically for public inspection in the NRC's Public Document Room or from the Publicly Available Records (PARS) component of the NRC's Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS).
