Dear Mr. Pardee:
On August 29, 2008, Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) examiners completed the initial operator licensing examination process for an examination administered at your LaSalle County Station, Units 1 and 2. The enclosed report documents the results of the examination which were discussed during a debrief on August 26, 2008, with Mr. D. Rhoades, and other members of your staff. An exit meeting was conducted by telephone on September 10, 2008, between Mr. J. White, Training Manager, of your staff and Mr. B. Palagi, NRC Chief Examiner, to review the proposed final grading of the examination for the license applicants. During the telephone conversation the NRC review of post examination comments received by the NRC on August 29, 2008, were discussed.
The NRC examiners administered an initial license examination operating test during the week of August 18, 2008. The written examination was administered by LaSalle training department personnel on August 25, 2008. Five (5) Senior Reactor Operator (SRO) and four (4) Reactor Operator (RO) applicants were administered license examinations. The results of the examination were finalized on September 24, 2008. All nine (9) applicants passed all sections of their respective examinations and were issued applicable operator licenses. In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390 of the NRC's "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 System (PARS) component of NRC's Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS), accessible from the NRC Web site at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html (the Public Electronic Reading Room).
We will gladly discuss any questions you have concerning this examination.
Sincerely,

.1 Initial Licensing Examinations
a. Examination Scope
The NRC examiners conducted an announced operator licensing initial examination during the week of August 18, 2008. The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC)examiners and members of the facility licensees staff used the guidance prescribed in NUREG-1021, Operator Licensing Examination Standards for Power Reactors, Revision 9 Supplement 1, to develop, validate, administer, and grade the written examination and operating test. Members of the facility licensees staff prepared the outline and developed the written examination and operating test. The NRC examiners validated the proposed examination during the week of July 21, 2008, with the assistance of members of the facility licensees staff. The NRC examiners administered the operating test, consisting of job performance measures and dynamic simulator scenarios, during the period of August 18, 2008. The facility licensee administered the written examination on August 25, 2008.
b. Findings
Written Examination The NRC examiners determined that the written examination, as originally submitted by the licensee, was within the range of acceptability expected for a proposed examination.
All changes made to the submitted examination, were made in accordance with NUREG-1021, "Operator Licensing Examination Standards for Power Reactors, and documented on Form ES-401-9, Written Examination Review Worksheet. The licensee submitted post-examination comments by letter dated August 29, 2008.
Neither the facility licensee nor any of the candidates requested a change to the as administered examination. The recommendations were from applicants who suggested that three of the written questions be reformatted.
Operating Test The NRC examiners developed the Operating Test. Operating Test changes agreed upon between the NRC and licensee were made according to NUREG-1021, Operator Licensing Examination Standards for Power Reactors. The licensee submitted one post examination comment by letter dated August 29, 2008. Neither the facility licensee nor any of the candidates requested a change to the as administered examination.
The recommendation was from an applicant who suggested that the initiation cue for one of the Job Performance Measures be changed to add clarity.
Examination Results Nine applicants passed all sections of their examinations resulting in the issuance of five senior reactor operator and four reactor operator licenses.
.2 Examination Security
a. Inspection Scope
The NRC examiners briefed the facility contact on the NRCs requirements and guidelines related to examination physical security (e.g., access restrictions and simulator considerations) and integrity in accordance with 10 CFR 55.49, Integrity of Examinations and Tests, and NUREG-1021, Operator Licensing Examination Standard for Power Reactors. The examiners reviewed and observed the licensees implementation and controls of examination security and integrity measures (e.g.,
security agreements) throughout the examination process.
