SUBJECT:
CATAWBA NUCLEAR POWER PLANT - OPERATOR LICENSING
EXAMINATION APPROVAL 05000413/2024301 AND 05000414/2024301
Dear Nicole Flippin:
The purpose of this letter is to confirm the final arrangements for the upcoming operator
licensing written examination at Catawba Nuclear Plant.
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. Michael Denton, Superintendent Nuclear Operations Training -
Initial License. The NRC staff will administer operating tests to these individuals, as applicable,
during the week of September 22, 2024.
The NRC has approved the subject written examination and hereby authorizes you to
administer the written examination in accordance with Revision 12, of NUREG-1021, Operator
Licensing Examination Standards for Power Reactors, on the week of September 29, 2024.
This examination has undergone extensive review by my staff and representatives responsible
for 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 operators 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) 997-4703.
Please contact your Chief Examiner, Mr. Michael Kennard, at (404) 997-4627 if you have any
questions or identify any errors or changes in license level (RO or SRO) or type of examination
(partial or complete written examination and/or operating test) specified for each applicant on
the list of approved applicants.
Sincerely,
Thomas A. Stephen, Chief
Operations Branch 1
Division of Reactor Safety
