SUBJECT: SHEARON HARRIS NUCLEAR PLANT - NOTIFICATION OF LICENSED | |||
OPERATOR INITIAL EXAMINATION 05000400/2009301 | |||
Dear Mr. Burton: | |||
In a telephone conversation on September 11, 2008, between Mr. Ken Bailey, Supervisor, | |||
Licensed Operator Requalification, and Mr. Frank Ehrhardt, Chief Examiner, arrangements were | |||
made for the administration of licensing examinations at Harris Nuclear Plant. The operating | |||
test is scheduled to be administered during the weeks of March 9 and March 16, 2009. The | |||
written examination is scheduled to be administered the week of March 16, 2009. The on-site | |||
preparatory week is scheduled for the week of February 16, 2009. | |||
As agreed during the telephone conversation, your staff will prepare both the operating tests | |||
and 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 December 17, 2008. Mr. Frank Ehrhardt provided the written examination outline to | |||
your staff in August 2008. The operating tests, written examination, and the supporting | |||
reference materials identified in Attachment 3 to ES-201 will be due by January 30, 2009. | |||
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. | |||
CP&L 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 | |||
CP&L 2 | 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 OMB, under | |||
approval number 3150-0018, which expires on June 30, 2009. The public reporting burden for | |||
this collection of information is estimated to average 400 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 Management Branch (T-6 F33), U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, | |||
Washington, DC 20555-0001, or by Internet electronic mail at gregory.trussell@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- | |||
rm.adams.html (the Public Electronic Reading Room). | |||

SUBJECT: SHEARON HARRIS NUCLEAR PLANT - NOTIFICATION OF LICENSED
OPERATOR INITIAL EXAMINATION 05000400/2009301
Dear Mr. Burton:
In a telephone conversation on September 11, 2008, between Mr. Ken Bailey, Supervisor,
Licensed Operator Requalification, and Mr. Frank Ehrhardt, Chief Examiner, arrangements were
made for the administration of licensing examinations at Harris Nuclear Plant. The operating
test is scheduled to be administered during the weeks of March 9 and March 16, 2009. The
written examination is scheduled to be administered the week of March 16, 2009. The on-site
preparatory week is scheduled for the week of February 16, 2009.
As agreed during the telephone conversation, your staff will prepare both the operating tests
and 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 December 17, 2008. Mr. Frank Ehrhardt provided the written examination outline to
your staff in August 2008. The operating tests, written examination, and the supporting
reference materials identified in Attachment 3 to ES-201 will be due by January 30, 2009.
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

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 OMB, under
approval number 3150-0018, which expires on June 30, 2009. The public reporting burden for
this collection of information is estimated to average 400 hours0.00463 days <br />0.111 hours <br />6.613757e-4 weeks <br />1.522e-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,

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

made for the administration of licensing examinations at Harris Nuclear Plant. The operating
test is scheduled to be administered during the weeks of March 9 and March 16, 2009. The
written examination is scheduled to be administered the week of March 16, 2009. The on-site
preparatory week is scheduled for the week of February 16, 2009.
As agreed during the telephone conversation, your staff will prepare both the operating tests
and 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 December 17, 2008. Mr. Frank Ehrhardt provided the written examination outline to
your staff in August 2008. The operating tests, written examination, and the supporting
reference materials identified in Attachment 3 to ES-201 will be due by January 30, 2009.
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.

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 OMB, under
approval number 3150-0018, which expires on June 30, 2009. The public reporting burden for
this collection of information is estimated to average 400 hours0.00463 days <br />0.111 hours <br />6.613757e-4 weeks <br />1.522e-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 gregory.trussell@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-
