SUBJECT:

EDWIN I. HATCH - OPERATOR LICENSING WRITTEN EXAMINATION APPROVAL 05000321/2023301 AND 05000366/2023301

Dear Mr. Belcher:

The purpose of this letter is to provide U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) approval of the proposed written examination and operating test under Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) 55.40(b)(4) and to confirm the final arrangements for the upcoming operator licensing examination at the Edwin I. Hatch Nuclear Plant.

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) has approved the subject examinations, and you may administer the written examination in accordance with Revision 12 to NUREG-1021, Operator Licensing Examination Standards for Power Reactors. The NRC staff will administer the operating tests during the week of November 27. 2023. The NRC has provided the list of applicants approved to take the examinations to your office. The examinations have 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 examinations meet the guidelines of NUREG-1021 for content, operational, and discrimination validity. By administering the written examination, you also agree that the examination meets NUREG-1021 guidelines and are 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 404- 997-4718.

Please contact the Chief Examiner, Mr. David Lanyi, at 404-997-4487 if you have questions or identify any errors or changes in license level (reactor operator or senior reactor operator) or type of examination (partial or complete written examination or operating test, or both) specifiedfor each applicant approved to take the examination.

Sincerely,

/RA/

Matt Endress, Chief Operations Branch 2 Division of Reactor Safety Docket Nos.: 50-321, 50-366 License Nos.: DPR-57, NPF-5
