1 To better document simulator examinations, the Chief Examiner will have the facility simulator operator record predetermined plant conditions (i.e., plant m

' pressure,-temperature, pressurizer level, etc.), for each simulator scenario.

-The applicants will be responsible for providing this information with A

.any appeal of a simulator operating examination. 'Therefore, the facility training ~ staff-should retain the simulator examination scenario information until all applicants who took the examinations have either passed the

operating. examination, accepted the denial of their license, or filed an t

appeal.

l.[

Preliminary reactor operator and senior reactor operator license applications.

i-

,' should be. submitted;at least 30' days before the-.first examination dates, so that we will be able to review the training'and experience of the candidates, process the medical-certifications, and prepare final examiner assignments

'after applicant eligibility-has been determined.

If the applications-are not

.o received atsleast 30 days before the exanination dates, it is likely that a 7

postponement will be necessary.

Final signed applications certifying that all' training has been completed shall be submitted at least 14 ' days before the first examination date.- However,-if processing of a license application.is

~

lnot completed in time-to'make a determination of -applicant eligibility, the candidate shall not be' permitted.to sit for the examination.

Therefore, it is J reconnended that license applications be provided as soon as possible to-L!

ensure an appropriate. level of review.
