UNITED STATES

NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION

REGION II

245 PEACHTREE CENTER AVENUE NE, SUITE 1200

ATLANTA, GEORGIA 30303-1257

March 11, 2015

Mr. Brian K. Taber

Vice President

Southern Nuclear Operating Company, Inc.

Vogtle Electric Generating Plant

7821 River Road

Waynesboro, GA 30830

SUBJECT: VOGTLE ELECTRIC GENERATING PLANT - NOTIFICATION OF LICENSED

OPERATOR INITIAL EXAMINATION 05000424/2015301 AND 05000425/2015301

Dear Mr. Taber:

In a telephone conversation on February 12, 2015, between Mr. John Acree, Nuclear

Operations Training Supervisor, Mr. Kenneth and Mr. Richard S. Baldwin, Senior Operations

Engineer, arrangements were made for the administration of licensing examinations at the

Vogtle Electric Generating Plant. The operating test is scheduled to be administered during the

weeks of August 31, 2015 and September 14, 2015. The written examination is scheduled to

be administered the week of September 21, 2015. The on-site preparatory week is scheduled

for the week of August 3, 2015.

As agreed during the telephone conversation, your staff will prepare both the operating test and

written examinations based on the guidelines in Revision 10, 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 furnished the operating test outlines in February 2015. Mr. Richard S. Baldwin

provided written examination outlines to your staff in November 2014. The written

examinations, operating test and the supporting reference materials identified in Attachment 3 to

ES-201 will be due by May 8, 2015. 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, and test 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.

B. Taber 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 (Office of Management and Budget

(OMB) approval number 3150-0090), medical certifications (OMB approval number 3150-0024),

and waiver requests (OMB approval number 3150-0090) at least 30 days before the first

examination date. If the applications are not received at least 30 days before the first

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 OMB under

approval number 3150-0018, which expires on April 30, 2016. 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 BJS1@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, Public Inspections, Exemptions, Requests for Withholding,

of the NRCs Rules of Practice, a copy of this letter and its enclosures will be available

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

Available Records (PARS) component of the NRCs Agencywide Documents Access and

Management System (ADAMS). ADAMS is accessible from the NRC Website at

http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm.adams.html (the Public Electronic Reading Room).

B. Taber 3

Thank you for your cooperation in this matter. Mr. Acree has been advised of the policies and

guidelines referenced in this letter. If you have any questions regarding the NRC's examination

procedures and guidelines, please contact Mr. Richard S. Baldwin at (404) 997-4642, (Internet E-
