2013 FERMI POWER PLANT INITIAL LICENSE EXAMINATION MISCELLANEOUS CORRESPONDENCE
UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION REGION Ill 2443 WARRENVILLE ROAD, SUITE 210 LISLE, IL 60532-4352 February 19, 2010 Mr. Jack M. Davis Senior Vice President and Chief Nuclear Officer Detroit Edison Company Fermi 2-210 NOC 6400 North Dixie Highway Newport, Ml 48166
SUBJECT:
CONFIRMATION OF INITIAL OPERATOR LICENSE EXAMINATIONS:
FERMI 2 POWER PLANT
Dear Mr. Davis:
In a letter dated July 27, 2009 (NRC-09-0047), your staff notified us that the number of applicants scheduled to take the Initial License Examination scheduled for the weeks of August 23 and August 30, 2010, had declined below nine applicants. In that letter you requested that the initial license examination be administered during the week of August 30, 2010, and the examination validation week be conducted during the week of August 9, 2010. We have adjusted our schedule to comply with your request and the examination and validation of the examination will occur during the weeks you have requested.
In addition to the August 30, 2010, examination, you are scheduled to have an initial license examination during the weeks of March 19 and March 26, 2012, and another examination during the weeks of September 2 and September 9, 2013. In the unlikely event that we are unable to support these examinations 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.
We understand that our staff will develop the August 2010 examination and your staff will develop the examination scheduled in 2012 and 2013 unless we discover the need for the NRC to develop an examination. Please inform us if the number of candidates declines below ten for the 2012 or 2013 examinations as this will impact the examination schedule. Please inform us at your earliest opportunity if you discover you need to change the scheduled date for any examination.
A supplementary letter will be sent to the training department manager approximately 120 days prior to each initial examination. The letter will provide the training staff the chief examiner's name, an outline of examination security expectations, and a list the materials required by the NRC to conduct the examination. The letter will 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.

Davis 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 System (PARS) component of NRC's Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS), accessible from the NRC Web site at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html (the Public Electronic Reading Room).

Subject:
Request to Revise Initial Lic~n~ed_Qp_erator Examination Date2 This letter formalizes communications between Mr. Scott Schmus of the Fermi 2 training staff and Mr. Dell McNeil of NRC Region III regarding the scheduling of initial licensed operator examinations at Fermi 2. Specifically, this letter is to inform the NRC of the need to revise the previously proposed examination date for the initial operator license examination scheduled to take place during the two week period of August 23, and August 30,2010 (Reference 2).
Due to the size of the initial licensed operator class being less than ten candidates, Detroit Edison no longer requires two weeks for administration of its 2010 NRC examination and requests that it be administered during the week of August 30, 2010. Additionally, Detroit Edison requests that the on-site validation of this examination, by the NRC, be conducted during the week of August 9, 2010.
If any additional information is needed regarding this matter, please contact Mr.
David G. Coseo of my staff at 734-586-4055.

CONFIRMATION OF INITIAL OPERATOR LICENSE EXAMINATIONS:
FERMI 2 POWER PLANT
Dear Mr. Davis:
In a letter dated May 2, 2008 (NRC-08-0029), and a in a subsequent letter dated August 5, 2008, your staff provided a response to NRC Regulatory Issue Summary 2008-16, "Preparation and Scheduling of Operator Licensing Examinations." Your staff requested initial license examinations in March 2009, August 2010, February 2012, and September 2013.
We have tentatively scheduled examinations for the following weeks: March 16, 2009, August 23, 2010, March 19, 2012, and September 2, 2013. We were not able to provide an examination on the primary date or the alternate date for the February 2012 examination. The examination is scheduled to occur one week after the alternate date proposed by your staff.
On-site validation of the examinations will occur approximately three weeks prior to the start of the examination. In the unlikely event that we are unable to support these examinations 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.
We understand that your staff will develop the examinations unless we discover the need for the NRC to develop the examination. The March 2009 examination was scheduled for one week, while the 2010, 2012, and 2013 examinations were scheduled for two weeks because the number of candidates was greater than nine. Please inform us if the number of candidates declines below ten for any of these examinations as this will impact the examination schedule.
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 manager approximately 120 days prior to each initial examination. The letter will provide the training staff the chief examiner's name, an outline of examination security expectations, and a list the materials required by the NRC to conduct the examination. The letter will reconfirm the examination dates, and reconfirm the number of candidates you have in the training program.

Subject:
Request to Revise Initial Licensed Operator Examination Dates This letter formalizes communications between Scott Schmus and Tim Horan of the Fermi 2 training staff and Mr. Dell McNeil ofNRC Region III regarding the scheduling of initial licensed operator examinations at Fermi 2. Specifically, this letter informs the NRC of the need to revise the previously proposed prim?ry and alternate dates for the initial operator llcense examination requested in Reference 2.
Detroit Edison requests that an examination be administered with a primary date during the week of August 23, 2010. If this date is not available, then an alternate date during the week of November 1, 2010 is requested. Please note that Refueling Outage 14 (RF14) at Fermi 2 is currently scheduled from September 25,2010 to October 25, 2010. Therefore, Detroit Edison requests that if the alternate date is chosen as the exam date, that examination validation be conducted prior to the week of September 13, 2010. This will ensure that adequate resources are available from the operations and training departments for the validation process before RF 14 begins.
If any additional information is needed regarding this matter, please contact Mr.
Timothy P. Horan, General Supervisor Operations Training, at 734-586-4961.
