SUBJECT: VIRGIL C. SUMMER NUCLEAR STATION - NOTIFICATION OF LICENSED

OPERATOR INITIAL EXAMINATION 05000395/2017301

Dear Mr. Lippard:

During a meeting on March 16, 2017, between Mr. Robert Johnston, Lead Developer, and

Mr. Daniel Bacon, Senior Operations Engineer, arrangements were made for the administration

of licensing examinations at the Virgil C. Summer (Unit 1) Nuclear Station. The operating test is

scheduled to be administered during the week of September 18, 2017. The written examination

is scheduled to be administered the week of September 25, 2017. The on-site preparatory

week is scheduled for the week of August 28, 2017.

As agreed during the meeting, your staff will prepare both the operating test and written

examination based on the guidelines in Revision 11, of NUREG-1021, "Operator Licensing

Examination Standards for Power Reactors." The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC)

regional office will discuss with your staff any changes that might be necessary before the

examinations are administered. Your staff has also agreed to make copies of all examination

materials that are necessary for administering the examination.

Your staff provided the NRC regional office with the operating test outlines on December 15,

2016. Mr. Mark Bates provided the written examination outline to your staff on September 29,

2016. The operating test, written examination, and the supporting reference materials identified

in Attachment 3 to ES-201 will be due by July 12, 2017. Pursuant to Title 10, Section

55.40(b)(3), of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR 55.40(b)(3)), an authorized

representative of the facility licensee shall approve the examinations before they are submitted

to the NRC for review and approval. All materials shall be complete and ready-to-use.

We request that any personal, proprietary, sensitive unclassified, or safeguards information in

your response be contained in a separate enclosure and appropriately marked. Any delay in

receiving the required examination and reference materials, or the submittal of inadequate or

incomplete materials, may cause the examinations to be rescheduled.

G. Lippard 2

In order to conduct the requested written examinations and operating tests, it will be necessary

for your staff to provide adequate space and accommodations in accordance with ES-402, and

to make the simulation facility available on the dates noted above. In accordance with ES-302,

your staff should retain the original simulator performance data (e.g., system pressures,

temperatures, and levels) generated during the dynamic operating tests until the examination

results are final.

Appendix E of NUREG-1021 contains a number of NRC policies and guidelines that will be in

effect while the written examinations and operating tests are being administered.

To permit timely NRC review and evaluation, your staff should submit preliminary reactor

operator and senior reactor operator license applications, medical certifications, and waiver

requests (if any) at least 60 days before the first examination date. If the applications are not

received at least 60 days before the examination date, a postponement may be necessary.

Signed applications certifying that all training has been completed should be submitted at least

14 days before the first examination date.

This letter contains information collections that are subject to the Paperwork Reduction Act of

1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.). These information collections were approved by the Office of

Management and Budget (OMB) under approval number 3150-0018. The public reporting

burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 2500 hours0.0289 days <br />0.694 hours <br />0.00413 weeks <br />9.5125e-4 months <br /> per response,

including the time for reviewing instructions, gathering and maintaining the data needed, writing

the examinations, and completing and reviewing the collection of information. Send comments

on any aspect of this collection of information, including suggestions for reducing the burden, to

the Information and Records Management Branch (T-6 F33), U.S. Nuclear Regulatory

Commission, Washington, DC 20555-0001, or by Internet electronic mail at

infocollectsresource@nrc.gov; and to the Desk Officer, Office of Information and Regulatory

Affairs, NEOB-10202, (3150-0018), Office of Management and Budget, Washington, DC 20503.

The NRC may neither conduct nor sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, an

information collection, unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number.

In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390 of the NRCs Rules of Practice, a copy of this letter will be

available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public Document Room or from the

Publicly Available Records (PARS) component of the NRCs document system (ADAMS).
