SUBJECT: SURRY NUCLEAR POWER PLANT - OPERATOR LICENSING WRITTEN

EXAMINATION APPROVAL 05000280/2017301 AND 05000281/2017301

Dear Mr. Philpot:

The purpose of this letter is to confirm the final arrangements for the upcoming operator

licensing written examination at Surry Power Station.

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) has approved the subject examinations,

and you may administer the written examination in accordance with Revision 11 to NUREG-

1021, Operator Licensing Examination Standards for Power Reactors, during the week of

November 6, 2017. The NRC staff will administer the operating tests during the week of

October 30, 2017. The list of the applicants approved to take the examination has been

provided to your office. The 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 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

(404) 997- 4551.

Please contact the Chief Examiner, Mr. Michael Donithan, at (404) 997-4538 if you have any

questions or identify any errors or changes in license level (RO or SRO) or type of examination

(partial or complete written examination) specified for each applicant on the list of approved

applicants.

Sincerely,

/RA/
