Dear Mr. Byram:
In a telephone conversation on December 22, 1998, between Mr. Larry Briggs and Mr. A. Fitch, arrangements were made for the administration of licensing examinations at the Susquehanna facility during the week of May 10, 1999.
As agreed during the telephone conversation, your staff willprepare the examinations based on the guidelines in Interim Revision 8, of NUREG-1021, "Operator Licensing Examination Standards for Power Reactors."
The NRC regional office willdiscuss with
~ your staff any changes that might be necessary before the examinations are administered.
To meet the above schedule, it willbe necessary for your staff to furnish the examination outlines by March 15, 1999. The written examinations and operating tests will be due by April 1, 1999. Any delay in receiving the required examination, or the submittal of inadequate or incomplete materials, may cause the examinations to be rescheduled.
In order to conduct the requested written examination and operating tests, it willbe necessary for your staff to provide adequate space and accommodations in accordance with ES-402, and to make the simulation facility available on the dates noted above.
In Ig 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, Appendix E of NUREG-1021 contains a number of NRC policies and guidelines that will be in effect while the written examinations and operating tests are being administered.
To permit timely NRC review and evaluation, your staff should submit preliminary senior reactor operator license applications [Office of Management and budget (OMB) approval number 3150-0090], medical certifications (OMB approval number 3150-0024), and waiver request (if any) (OMB approval number 3150-0090) at least 30 days before the first examination date.
If the applications are not received at least 30 days before the examination date, a postponement may be necessary.
Signed applications certifying that all training has been completed should be submitted at least 14 days before the first examination date.
