The enclosed examination report documents the examination results, which were discussed on June 18, 20 1 5 , with Mr. Nick Lizzo, Training Manager, and other members of your staff.
| |
|
| |
| The examination included the evaluation of one applicant for a reactor operator license, and four applicant s for instant senior reactor operator license s. The written and operating examinations were developed using NUREG-1021, "Operator Licensing Examination Standards for Power Reactors," Revision 9, Supplement 1. The license examiners determined that all applicants satisfied the requirements of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) Part 55, and the appropriate licenses were issued on June 18, 2015.

OTHER ACTIVITIES (OA)
4OA5 Other Activities (Initial Operator License Examination)
.1 License Applications
a. Scope
The examiners reviewed all the license applications submitted by the licensee to ensure the applications reflected that each applicant satisfied relevant license eligibility requirements. The applications were submitted on NRC Form 398, Personal Qualification Statement, and NRC Form 396, Certification of Medical Examination by Facility Licensee. The examiners also audited all of the license applications in detail to confirm that they accurately reflected the subject applicants qualifications. This audit focused on the applicants experience and on-the-job training, including control manipulations that provided significant reactivity changes.
b. Findings
No findings were identified.
.2 Operator Knowledge and Performance
a. Examination Scope
On May 18, 2015, the licensee proctored the administration of the written examinations to all five applicants. The licensee staff graded the written examinations, analyzed the results, and presented their analysis to the NRC on May 28, 2015.
The NRC examination team administered the various portions of the operating examination to all applicants on May 11-14, 2015. The one applicant for a reactor operator license participated in two dynamic simulator scenarios, in a control room and facilities walkthrough test consisting of eleven system tasks, and an administrative test consisting of four administrative tasks. The four applicants seeking an instant senior reactor operator license participated in two or three dynamic simulator scenarios, a control room and facilities walkthrough test consisting of ten system tasks, and an administrative test consisting of five administrative tasks.
b. Findings
All applicants passed the written examination and operating test. For the written examinations, the one reactor operator applicants score was 92 percent, the senior operator applicants average score was 88.25 percent and ranged from 82 to 94 percent. The overall written examination average was 89 percent. The text of the examination questions and the licensees examination analysis may be accessed in the ADAMS system under the accession numbers noted in Attachment 1. In accordance with current NRC policy, the release of this written examination in ADAMS to the public will be delayed for 2 years.
The NRC examiners completed the final grading of the written examination on June 1, 2015, and conducted a review of each missed question to determine the accuracy and validity of the examination questions.
Chapter ES-403 and Form ES-403-1 of NUREG 1021 require the licensee to analyze the validity of any written examination questions that were missed by half or more of the applicants. The licensee conducted this performance analysis for all questions that met these criteria and submitted the analysis to the chief examiner. No post exam comments were submitted.

a. Examination Scope
The NRC developed the examinations in accordance with NUREG-1021, Revision 9, Supplement 1. All licensee facility training and operations staff involved in examination preparation and validation were listed on a security agreement. The NRC conducted a final onsite validation of the operating examinations and written examination review during the week of January 26, 2015.
b. Findings
No findings were identified.
.4 Simulation Facility Performance
a. Examination Scope
The examiners observed simulator performance with regard to plant fidelity during the examination validation and administration.
b. Findings
