UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION REGION Ill 2443 WARRENVILLE RD. SUITE 210 LISLE, IL 60532-4352 April?, 2016 Mr. Bryan C. Hanson Senior VP, Exelon Generation Company, LLC President and CNO, Exelon Nuclear 4300 Winfield Road Warrenville, IL 60555

SUBJECT:

OPERATOR LICENSING EXAMINATION APPROVAL

Dear Mr. Hanson:

The purpose of this letter is to confirm the final arrangements for the upcoming operator licensing examinations at the Quad Cities Nuclear Power Station.

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) has completed its review of the operator license applications in connection with this examination and separately provided a list of approved applicants to Mr. Edward J. Pannell, Training Director. Note that any examination waivers and application denials have been addressed in separate correspondence.

The NRC has approved the subject examinations and you may administer the written examinations in accordance with Revision 10, of NUREG-1 021, "Operator Licensing Examination Standards for Power Reactors," during the week of May 2, 2016. The NRC staff will administer the operating tests during the weeks of April18 and 25, 2016. 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 the 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 630-829-9834.

Please contact the Chief Examiner, Mr. Bruce Palagi, at 630-829-9611, if you have any questions or identify any errors or changes in the license level reactor operator (RO), senior reactor operator (SRO) or type of examination (partial or complete written examination and/or operating test) specified for each applicant.

In accordance with Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (1 0 CFR) 2.390, "Public Inspections, Exemptions, Requests for Withholding," of the NRC's "Rules of Practice," a copy of this letter will be available electronically for public inspection in the NRC's Public Document
