St. Francisville, LA 70775

SUBJECT:

RIVER BEND STATION - NRC INITIAL OPERATOR LICENSING

EXAMINATION APPROVAL 05000458/2021301

Dear Mr. Vercelli:

The purpose of this letter is to confirm the final arrangements for the upcoming operator

licensing examinations at River Bend Station.

The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) has completed its review of the operator license

applications submitted in connection with this examination and separately provided a list of

approved applicants to Gabe Kimish, initial exam lead. Note that any examination waivers and

application denials have been addressed in separate correspondence.

The NRC has approved the subject examinations and hereby authorizes you to administer the

written examination in accordance with NUREG-1021, "Operator Licensing Examination

Standards for Power Reactors," Revision 11, on February 17, 2021. The NRC staff will

administer the operating tests during the week of February 8, 2021. This examination has

undergone extensive review by my staff and representatives responsible for licensed operator

training at your facility. Based on this review, I have concluded that the examination meets the

guidelines of NUREG-1021 for content, operational, and discrimination validity. By

administering this examination, you also agree that it meets NUREG-1021 guidelines and is

appropriate for measuring the qualifications of licensed operator applicants at your facility. If

you determine that this examination is not appropriate for licensing operators at your facility, do

not administer the examination and contact me at 817-200-1159.

S. Vercelli

complete written examination and/or operating test) specified for each applicant approved to

take the examination.

Sincerely,

Gregory E. Werner, Chief
