SUBJECT: RIVER BEND STATION - NRC INITIAL OPERATOR LICENSING

EXAMINATION APPROVAL 05000458/2022301

Dear Mr. Scott:

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

licensing examination at River Bend Station.

The 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. Gabriel

Kimich, Simulator and Regulatory Exam Supervisor. 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 12, on December 14, 2022. The NRC staff will

administer the operating tests during the week of December 5, 2022. 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.

K. Scott 2

Please contact Thomas Farina, chief examiner, at 817-200-1117, if you have any questions or

identify any errors or changes in the license level (RO or SRO) or type of examination (partial or

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

take the examination.

Sincerely,

Signed by Gepford, Heather
