Dear Mr. Krich:
In a telephone conversation on March 25, 2010, between Mr. Ronald E. Crews, Operations
Training Manager, and Mr. Gerard W. Laska, Senior Operations Examiner, arrangements were
made for the administration of licensing examinations at Watts Bar Nuclear Plant. The
operating test is scheduled to be administered during the weeks of August 23 and 30, 2010.
The written examination is scheduled to be administered during the week of September 6, 2010.
The on-site preparatory week is scheduled for the week of August 2, 2010.
As agreed during the telephone conversation, your staff will prepare the operating test outlines,
operating tests, and the written examination based on the guidelines in Revision 9, Supplement
1, 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.
To meet the above schedule, it will be necessary for your staff to furnish the operating test
outlines by June 09, 2010. Mr. Laska provided the written examination outline to your staff on
November 18, 2009. The operating tests, written examination, and the supporting reference
materials identified in Attachment 3 to ES-201 will be due by July 02, 2010. 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 outlines, examinations, and tests 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.

Dear Mr. Krich:
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 (if any)(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 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. The public reporting burden for this collection of information is
estimated to average 500 hours 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

OPERATOR INITIAL EXAMINATION 05000390/2010301

Dear Mr. Krich:

In a telephone conversation on March 25, 2010, between Mr. Ronald E. Crews, Operations

Training Manager, and Mr. Gerard W. Laska, Senior Operations Examiner, arrangements were

made for the administration of licensing examinations at Watts Bar Nuclear Plant. The

operating test is scheduled to be administered during the weeks of August 23 and 30, 2010.

The written examination is scheduled to be administered during the week of September 6, 2010.

The on-site preparatory week is scheduled for the week of August 2, 2010.

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

operating tests, and the written examination based on the guidelines in Revision 9, Supplement

1, 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.

To meet the above schedule, it will be necessary for your staff to furnish the operating test

outlines by June 09, 2010. Mr. Laska provided the written examination outline to your staff on

November 18, 2009. The operating tests, written examination, and the supporting reference

materials identified in Attachment 3 to ES-201 will be due by July 02, 2010. 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 outlines, examinations, and tests 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.

TVA 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 (if any)(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 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. The public reporting burden for this collection of information is

estimated to average 500 hours0.00579 days <br />0.139 hours <br />8.267196e-4 weeks <br />1.9025e-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 not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection

of information 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 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 document

system (ADAMS). ADAMS is accessible from the NRC Website at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-
