UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION REGION I 2100 RENAISSANCE BLVD., Suite 100 KING OF PRUSSIA, PA 19406-2713 October 31, 2017 Mr. Richard Bologna Site Vice President First Energy Nuclear Operating Company Beaver Valley Power Station P. O. Box 4 Shippingport, PA 15077-0004

SUBJECT:

BEAVER VALLEY POWER STATION, UNIT 2 - INITIAL OPERATOR LICENSING OPERATING TEST APPROVAL

Dear Mr. Bologna:

The purpose of this letter is to confirm the final arrangements for the upcoming operator licensing examinations for the operating test at the Beaver Valley Power Station Unit 2. Please note that written examination approval will be communicated under separate correspondence.

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

The NRC approved the subject operating test in accordance with NUREG-1021, "Operator Licensing Examination Standards for Power Reactors," Revision 11. The NRC staff will administer the operating tests during the weeks of November 6 and November 13, 2017.

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 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 (610) 337-5306.

R. Bologna 2 Please contact your Chief Examiner, Joseph M. DAntonio at (610) 337-5085, if you have any questions or identify any errors or changes in the license level Reactor Operator (RO) or Senior Reactor Operator (SRO) or type of examination (partial or complete operating test) specified for each applicant.

Sincerely,

/RA/
