ATH E NS, AL A. 3 5611 hf 5, / f 5 Chairman nuclear Regulatory Coccission 1717 H st. NW
ashington, D.C. 20055 Dear Sir; You will find enclosed a letter which I wrote to Mr. H. J. Green at The 2rown's Ferry nuclear Plant on Janucryy 13, 1977 and its subsequent transmittal to T. H. Cash and J. R. Calhodn.
In =y letter I offer to expose cheating on URC exams that took place whild I was employed at Brown's-Ferry Nuclear Plant.
I was a licensed unit operator ($;* (OP-3653-1).
When I took the exam, the Assistant operations Supervisor assigned several o f the operators some of the questions to either write down or to memorize so TVA would have a copy of the exam.
I was personally assigned so=e questions.
Yle also received exa=s from other plants.
I do not know of any operator who took the exam while I was there that did.not know about the exam cheating.
NRC excniners did not keep track of
_=
the examinees, so it was co=peratively easy feF to Call the control room to
-=
have someone,look up the answers.
I understooH that at one time, a man was assigned to be FSAR to look up answers to questions phoned in by examinees.
Of course, you =ay know all this, and feel that it is not dangerous.
TVA of ficials are being less that candid with me' and I feel that they have done so with KRC for years.
Th nk You, W
