. ALFRED 4. MORABITO SERVED AUG 1 8 1989 (SeniorOperatorLicense Docket No. 55-60755-SP for Beaver Valle Station, Unit'1)y Power i

CLI-89-16 ORDER On July 15,1988,' the Commission determined that be:aus r Mr. Alfred J.

. Morabito, a candidate for a Senior Reactor Operator's license, had taken employment outside the nuclear area, and was therefore ineligible for a c

license, the controversy over his examination grade was moot. We therefore vacated both the decision of the Administrative Judge which ruled that he had passed the necessary examinations, and the NRC staff's denial of his license.

In a request for reconsideration filed on August 12, 1988, Mr. Morabito urged E

that issuance of a license, even though retroactively issued and retroactively P

revoked, would assist him in seeking employment in the nuclear area with another employer. We conclude that Mr. Morabito has not shown that reconsideration of our decision is appropriate.

Notwithstanding that tnat decision for legal reasons held the dispute over the license to be moot, Mr. Morebito can validly assert to anu i

prospective employer that as of April 20, 1988, an NRC Administrative Judge had ruled that he had passed all examinations necessary for a license.

In the absence of a ' currently valid certification of need, however, there is no basis for the Comission to add its own determination as to whether the requirements for a license were satisfied at'some time in the past. The request for reconsideration is therefore denied.

It is so ORDERED.
