i Mr. D. R. Gipson Senior Vice President Nuclear Generation Fermi 2 Nuclear Power Plant The Detroit Edison Company 6400 North Dixie Highway Newport, MI 48166

Dear Mr. Gip;en:

i in a telephone conversation on January 12,1998, between Mr. Larry Sanders and Mr. Hironori Peterson, arrangements were made to revise the dates for the administration of licensing examinations at the Fermi 2 Nuclear Facility to the weeks of April 6 and April 13, 1998. In addition, the NRC will make an examination validation visit to your facility the week of March 23,1998.

As agreed during the telephone conversation, your staff will prepare the examinations based on the guidelines in Interim Revision 8, of NUREG-1021,

  • Operator Licensing Examination Standards for Power Reactors." The NRC regional office will discuss with your staff any ch6nges that might be necessary before the examinations are administered.

To meet the revised schedule, the written examinations, operating test::, and the supporting reference materials identified in Attachment 2 of ES 201 will now be due by March 6,1998.

Any delay in receiving the required examination and reference materials, or the submittal of inadequate or incomplete materials, may cause the examinations to be rescheduled.

In order to conduct the ree,uested written examinations and operating tests, it will be necessary for your staff to provide adequate space and accommodations in accordance with ES-402, and to make the simulation facility available on the dates noted above. In accordance with ES 302, your staff should retain the original simulator performance data (e.g., system pressures, temperatures, and levels) generated during the dynamic operating tests until the examination results are final.

Appendix E of NUREG 1021 contains a number of NRC policies and guidelines that will be in effect while the written examinations and operating tests are being administered.

To permit timely NRC review and evaluation, your staff should submit preliminary reactor operator and senior reactor operator license applications (Office of Management and Budget (OMB) approval number 3150-0090), medical certifications (OMB approval number 3150-0024),

and walver requests (if any) (OMB approval number 3150-0090) at least 30 days before the fist examination date, if the applications are not received at least 30 days before the examination date, a postponement may be necessary. Signed applications certifying that all training has been completed should be submitted at least 14 days beiom the first examination date.
