SUBJECT:
SENIOR REACTOR OPERATOR INITIALEXAHINATIONS TURKEY POINT NUCLEAR PLANT - EXAHINATION REPORT NOS. 50-250/97-300 AND 50-251/97-300
Dear Hr. Plunkett:
In a telephone conversation on Hay 15,
- 1997, between Hr. George
- Hopper, License Examiner, and Hr. Glen Blinde, arrangements were made for the administration of licensing examinations at the Turkey Point Nuclear Plant.
The written examination is scheduled for September 5, 1997.
The operating tests are scheduled for the week of September 8,
1997.
This examination will be developed and administered as part of the NRC pilot initial examination process based on your staff's request to participate in the pilot process.
The NRC pilot initial examination process will permit your staff to draft the written examinations and operating tests for operator and senior operator license applicants.
The NRC will review and approve the'roposed examinations and tests and independently administer the operat'ing tests to license applicants.
Your staff will not administer any portion of the operating tests;
- however, they will administer the written examinations.
The NRC will review the graded written examinations, grade each applicant's operating test performance, make the final pass or fail decisions, and issue
- licenses, as appropriate.
Your staff will develop the licensing examinations in accordance with the guidelines in Revision 7, Supplement 1, of NUREG-1021, "Operator Licensing Examiner Standards,".
Additional information on the development of the licensing examinations will be issued separately.
To prepare and administer the examinations on the above schedule, Hr. Hopper, License Examiner, identified to Hr. Blinde the subset of reference materials identified in Attachment 2 of ES-201 that would be necessary under the pilot process.
This material should be submitted by August 4, 1997.
Your staff will prepare and, after NRC review and approval, administer the written examinations in accordance with ES-401 and ES-402 of NUREG-1021.
The NRC's guidelines for administering the written examinations are described in ES-402, Attachment l.
Your staff will prepare and the NRC will administer the operating tests in accordance with ES-301 and ES-302 of NUREG-1021.
In order to conduct the requested operating tests, it will be necessary for your staff'o make the simulation facility available on the dates noted above.
Your staff should retain the original simulatis performance data (e.g.,
system pressures, temperatures, and levels) gener ated during the dynamic operating tests until ghg examination results are final.
FPSL ES-402,,
and ES-302, Attachment 1, contain a number of NRC policies and guidelines that will be in effect while the written examination and operating tests are being administered.
Your staff should submit preliminary reactor and senior reactor operator license applications and waiver requests at least 30 days before the first examination date so that the NRC will be able to review the applications and the medical certifications and evaluate any requested waiver s. If the applications are not received at least 30 days before the examination date, a
postponement may be necessary.
Finally, signed applications certifying that all training has been completed should be submitted at least 14 days before the first examination date.
This request is covered by Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Clear ance Number 3150-0101, which expires April 30, 2000
