SUBJECT:
BROWNS FERRY NUCLEAR PLANT - OPERATOR LICENSING WRITTEN
EXAMINATION APPROVAL 05000259/2025301, 05000259/2025301, AND
Dear Bob Busick:
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 Browns Ferry Nuclear Plant
The NRC has approved the subject examinations, and you may administer the written
examination during the week of May 18, 2025, in accordance with Revision 12 to NUREG-1021,
Operator Licensing Examination Standards for Power Reactors, issued September 2021. The
NRC staff will administer the operating test during the week of May 11, 2025. The NRC has
provided the list of the applicants approved to take the examinations to Mr. Mike Schulte,
Examination Team Supervisor. 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 examinations meet NUREG-1021 guidelines and are appropriate for
measuring the qualifications of licensed operator applicants at your facility. If you determine
that these examinations are not appropriate for licensing operators at your facility, do not
administer the written examination and contact me at (404) 997-4718.
Please contact your Chief Examiner, Mr. David Lanyi, at (404) 997-4487, if you have any
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) specified for each approved applicant on the list to take the examinations.
Sincerely,
Matthew F. Endress, Chief
Operations Branch
Division of Operating Reactor Safety
