SUBJECT: ST. LUCIE PLANT - NOTIFICATION OF LICENSED OPERATOR INITIAL
              EXAMINATION 05000335/2017301 AND 05000389/2017301
Dear Mr. Nazar:
During a telephone conversation on May 25, 2017, between Mr. Erik Feightner, Operations
Training Supervisor and Mr. Mark Bates, Senior Operations Engineer, arrangements were made
for the administration of licensing examinations at the St. Lucie Nuclear Plant. The on-site
preparatory week is scheduled for the week of November 6, 2017. The operating test is
scheduled to be administered during the weeks of December 4, 2017 and December 11, 2017.
The written examination is scheduled to be administered the week of December 18, 2017.
As agreed during the telephone conversation, your staff will prepare both the operating test and
written examination based on the guidelines in Revision 11 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
outline by July 7, 2017. Mr. Mark Bates provided a written examination outline to your staff on
April 3, 2017. The operating tests, written examination, and the supporting reference materials
identified in Attachment 3 to ES-201, will be due by October 2, 2017. 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, examination, 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.
 
M. Nazar                                      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) and medical certifications (OMB approval number 3150-
0024) at least 30 days before the first examination date. Any waiver and/or excusal requests
(OMB approval number 3150-0090) should be submitted at least 60 days before the first
examination date. Contact Mr. Bates to determine the method for submission of the waiver or
excusal requests. 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 (OMB) under approval number 3150-0018. The public reporting
burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 2500 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
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

The written examination is scheduled to be administered the week of December 18, 2017.

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

written examination based on the guidelines in Revision 11 of NUREG-1021, Operator

April 3, 2017. The operating tests, written examination, and the supporting reference materials

identified in Attachment 3 to ES-201, will be due by October 2, 2017. Pursuant to Title 10,

Section 55.40(b)(3), of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR 55.40(b)(3)), an authorized
