SUBJECT:
SOUTH TEXAS PROJECT, UNITS 1 AND 2 - NRC INITIAL OPERATOR
LICENSING EXAMINATION APPROVAL 05000498/2021301;
Dear Mr. Powell:
The purpose of this letter is to confirm the final arrangements for the upcoming operator
licensing examination at South Texas Project, Units 1 and 2.
The U.S. 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 Mr. Bobby Simpson, Operations Training Manager. Note that any
examination waivers and application denials have been addressed in separate correspondence.
The NRC has approved the subject examination and hereby authorizes you to administer the
written examination in accordance with NUREG-1021, "Operator Licensing Examination
Standards for Power Reactors," Revision 11, on July 29, 2021. The NRC staff will administer
the operating tests during the weeks of July 12 and 19, 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.
