SUBJECT:
VOGTLE NUCLEAR POWER PLANT - OPERATOR LICENSING
EXAMINATION APPROVAL 05000424/2015301 AND 05000425/2015301
Dear Mr. Stiles:
The purpose of this letter is to confirm the final arrangements for the upcoming operator
licensing examination at the Vogtle Nuclear Power Plant.
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 your office. The NRC staff will administer the operating tests to
individuals, as applicable, the weeks of August 31, 2015, and September 14, 2015. Note that
any examination waivers and application denials have been addressed in separate
correspondence.
The NRC has approved the subject written examination and hereby authorizes you to
administer the written examination in accordance with Revision 10, Supplement 1, of NUREG-
1021, Operator Licensing Examination Standards for Power Reactors, the week of
September 21, 2015.
This examination has undergone extensive review by my staff and representatives responsible
for 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 operators 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 (404) 997-4662.

Sincerely,
