Dear Mr. Larson:

In a telephone conversation on June 4, 2014, Mr. T. Fish, Senior Operations Engineer, and Mr. J. Tolbert, Requalification Program Lead, made arrangements for the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) to inspect the licensed operator requalification program at the Unit 1 facility. The inspection is planned for the week of August 4, 2014, which coincides with your regularly scheduled requalification examination cycle. The staff at your facility should prepare and conduct the requalification examinations in accordance with your NRC-approved requalification program.

In accordance with Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) 55.59(c), the NRC may request facility licensees to submit their biennial comprehensive requalification written examinations or annual operating tests as necessary to support the NRC's inspection program needs.

Mr. Tolbert has been advised of this request and provided with the name and address of the NRC lead inspector assigned to this inspection.
