Dear Mr. Eliason:
From July 8-12, 1996, the NRC administered examinations to six employees of your
company who had applied for licenses to operate the Salem Nuclear Generating Station,
Units 1 and 2. The examination was conducted in accordance with Revision 7 of NUREG-
1021, "Operator Licensing Examiner Standards." At the conclusion of the examination,
generic findings and observations that evolved as a result of the examination were
discussed with Messrs. J. Zerbo and C. Bakken and other members of your staff identified
in the enclosed report.
Based on the results of the examinations, all six of the senior reactor operator (SRO)
candidates, which included five SRO instant and one SRO upgrade, passed the
examination. The licenses for the SRO instant candidates were not issued, however,
because the five plant reactivity manipulations required by 10 CFR 55.31 (a)(5) had not yet

- ~Jmpletion of the reactivity manipulations, licenses will be issued to these five candidates .
