SUBJECT:        WOLF CREEK NUCLEAR OPERATING COMPANY - NOTIFICATION OF NRC
                INITIAL OPERATOR LICENSING EXAMINATION 05000482/2013301
Dear Mr. Sunseri:
In a telephone conversation on January 9, 2013 between Ms. Jane Hartley and Duane
Strickland, Chief Examiner, arrangements were made for the administration of licensing
examinations at Wolf Creek during the week of July 22, 2013.
As agreed during the telephone conversation, your staff will prepare the examinations based on
the guidelines in NUREG-1021, Operator Licensing Examination Standards for Power
Reactors, Revision 9, Supplement 1, and NUREG-1122, Knowledge and Abilities Catalog for
Nuclear Power Plant Operators, Revision 2, Supplement 1. The NRCs regional office will
discuss with your staff any changes that might be necessary before the examinations are
administered,
To meet the above schedule, it will be necessary for your staff to furnish the examination
outlines by May 3, 2013. The written examinations, operating tests, and supporting reference
materials identified in Attachment 3 to ES-201 will be due by May 31, 2013. Pursuant to Title 10,
Section 55.40(b)(3), of the Code of Federal Regulations, 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 examinations and reference materials, or the submittal of inadequate or
incomplete materials, may cause the examinations to be rescheduled. In addition, your support
for on-site validation of the examinations is required during the week of June 17, 2013.
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.
 
M. Sunseri                                    -2-
Appendix E to 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 operator and
senior 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 February 28, 2013. The public reporting burden
for this collection of information is estimated to average 50 hours per response, including the
time for reviewing instructions, gathering and maintaining the data needed, and completing and
reviewing the collection of information. Send comments regarding this burden estimate or any
other aspect of these information collections, including suggestions for reducing the burden, to
the Records and FOIA/Privacy Services Branch (T-5 F52), U.S. Nuclear Regulatory
Commission, Washington, DC 20555-0001, or by Internet electronic mail to
INFOCOLLECTS@NRC.GOV.
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 NRCs 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 electronic Reading Room
page of the NRCs public Web site at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html.
Thank you for your cooperation in this matter. Ms. Hartley has been advised of the policies and
guidelines referenced in this letter. If you have any questions regarding the NRCs examination
procedures and guidelines, please contact Mr. Strickland at 817-200-1570 or myself at
817-200-1159.
                                                      Sincerely,
                                                            /RA/
