To meet the above schedule, it willbe necessary for your staff to furnish the examination outlines by September 27, 1998. The examinations and the supporting reference materials identified in Attachment 2 of ES-201 willbe due by November 30, 1998.
The NRC will review the finalized examinations and complete validation of the examinations at your facilityduring the week of or just prior to January 25, 1999. Any delay in receiving the required examination and reference materials, or the submittal of inadequate or incomplete materials, may cause the examinations to be rescheduled.
In order to conduct the requested written examinations and operating tests, it will be necessary for your staff to provide adequate space and accommodations in accordance with ESQ02 and to make the simulation facility available on the dates noted above, In accordance with ES-302, your staff should retain the original simulator performance data (e.g., system pressures, temperatures, and levels) generated during the dynamic operating tests until the examination results are final.
