EXAMINATION REPORT

NO. 50-244/96-0 2 (OL)

Dear Mr. Mecredy:

During the period of February

13-15,

1996, the

NRC administered initial

examinations

to two employees of your company,

who had applied for Reactor

Operator

(RO) licenses for the Ginna Nuclear

Power Station.

At the conclusion

of the examinations,

the preliminary findings were discussed

with yourself and

members of your staff in an exit meeting.

The final results

are that both applicants failed the written examination.

Generic weaknesses

from this examination

are detailed in the examination

report.

This examination

was developed

and administered

as part of the recent

NRC

pilot process that utilized the resources

of the Ginna Training Department to

propose

the written and operating

examinations.

The

NRC appreciates

your

voluntary participation in this process.

At the exit meeting, your staff

conveyed

some perspectives

regarding this pilot examination

process,

and

stated their intent to conduct

a root cause

evaluation of the examination

failures.

We continue to be interested

in your comments

and perspectives

and

will review any further comments.

Regarding the results of your root cause

evaluation of the failures,

we would appreciate

knowing your conclusions,

either in an open meeting or in writing.

Please

contact

us

and inform us

as

to your preferences,

once the evaluation is completed.

In accordance

with 10 CFR 2.790 of the Commission's

regulations,

a copy of

this letter and its enclosure will be placed in the

NRC Public Document

Room.

Should you have

any questions

regarding this information, please

contact

me at (610) 337-5211.

Sincerely,
