UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION REGION I 2100 RENAISSANCE BLVD., SUITE 100 KING OF PRUSSIA, PA 19406-2713 January 13, 2015 Mr. Timothy S. Rausch Senior Vice President and Chief Nuclear Officer PPL Susquehanna, LLC 769 Salem Blvd - NUCSB3 Berwick, PA 18603-0467

SUBJECT:

OPERATOR LICENSING RETAKE EXAMINATION APPROVAL -

SUSQUEHANNA STEAM ELECTRIC STATION, UNITS 1 AND 2

Dear Mr. Rausch:

The purpose of this letter is to confirm the final arrangements for the upcoming operator licensing retake examinations at the Susquehanna facility.

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 Mr. Corey Goff, Manager, Training. Note that any examination waivers and application denials have been addressed in separate correspondence.

The NRC has approved the subject retake examinations and hereby authorizes you to administer the written examinations in accordance with NUREG-1021, Operator Licensing Examinations Standards for Power Reactors, Revision 9, Supplement 1 on January 19, 2015.

The NRC staff will administer the operating test during the week of January 19, 2015. 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 (610) 337-5306.

Please contact your Chief Examiner, Mr. Todd Fish, at (610) 337-5369, if you have any questions or identify any errors or changes in the license level Senior Reactor Operator (SRO) or type of examination (partial or complete written examination and/or operating test) specified for each applicant.

Sincerely,

/RA/

Donald E. Jackson, Chief Operations Branch Division of Reactor Safety
