SUBJECT:

NRC INSPECTION REPORT 50-483/99-301 In a telephone conversation on April 29,1998, between Bruce Moody, Operating Supervisor for Training, and Howard Bundy, Chief Examiner, arrangements were made for the administration of licensing examinations at Callaway Plant during the week of January 11,1999.

As agreed during the telephone conversation, your staff will prepare the examinations based on the guidelines in Revision 8, of NUREG-1021, " Operator Licensing Examination Standards for Power Reactors." The NRC regional office will discuss with your staff any changes that might be necessary before the examinations are administered.

To meet the above schedule, it will be necessary for your staff to fumish the examination outlines by August 31,1998. The written examinations, operating tests, and the supporting reference materials identified in Attachment 2 of ES-201 will be due by October 26,1998. 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. A validation of the final examination material will be conducted at your facility the week of November 16,1998.

In order to conduct the requested 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. Mr. Bundy understands that the simulation facility will only be available on backshift for examination validation. 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 waiver request's (if any) (OMB approval number 3150-0090) at least 30 days before the first 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 before the first examination date.
