SUBJECT: WATERFORD STEAM ELECTRIC STATION - NRC INITIAL OPERATOR

LICENSING EXAMINATION APPROVAL 05000382/2014301

Dear Mr. Chisum:

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

licensing examinations at the Waterford Steam Electric Station.

The 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 John Signorelli,

Operations Training Facility Representative. Note that any examination waivers and application

denials have been addressed in separate correspondence.

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

written examination in accordance with NUREG-1021, "Operator Licensing Examination

Standards for Power Reactors," Revision 9, Supplement 1, on April 2, 2014. The NRC staff will

administer the operating tests during the week of April 7, 2014. This examination has

undergone extensive review by my staff and representatives responsible for licensed 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 operator applicants 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 (817) 200-1159.

Please contact your Chief Examiner, Chris Steely, at (817) 200-1432, if you have any questions

or identify any errors or changes in the license level (RO or SRO) or type of examination (partial

or complete written examination and/or operating test) specified for each applicant.

Sincerely,

/RA/
