SUBJECT:

NOTIFICATION OF LICENSED OPERATOR INITIAL EXAMINATION -

SURRY POWER STATION - 05000280/2009301 AND 05000281/2009301

Dear Mr. Christian:

In a telephone conversation on February 2, 2009, between Mr. David Wilson, Operations

Training Supervisor, and Mr. Mark Bates, Senior Operations Engineer, arrangements were

made for the administration of licensing examinations at the Surry Power Station. The operating

test is scheduled to be administered the week of July 20, 2009. The written examination is

scheduled to be administered the week of July 27, 2009. The on-site preparatory week is

scheduled for the week of June 29, 2009.

As agreed during the telephone conversation, the staff of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory

Commission (NRC) will prepare the written examination and your staff will prepare the operating

test based on the guidelines in Revision 9, Supplement 1, of NUREG-1021, "Operator Licensing

Examination Standards for Power Reactors." Your staff will be given the opportunity to review

the written examination during the week of May 29, 2009. The NRC regional office will discuss

with your staff any changes to the operating test that might be necessary before the tests 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 reference materials

identified in Attachment 3 to ES-201 by February 6, 2009. The operating test outline will be due

by April 27, 2009 and the operating tests will be due by June 8, 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 outline 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.

VEPCO

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 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 NRC's Rules of Practice, a copy of this letter will be

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

Publicly Available Records (PARS) component of NRC's document system (ADAMS). ADAMS
