As agreed during the telephone conversation, your staff will prepare the examinations based on the guidelines in Interim Revision 8, if 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.

The written examinations, operating tests, and the supporting reference materials requested by the chief examiner will be due by August 14,1998.

In order to conduct the requested written examination 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
