SUBJECT: VIRGIL C. SUMMER NUCLEAR STATION - NOTIFICATION OF LICENSED

OPERATOR INITIAL EXAMINATION 05000395/2015301

Dear Mr. Gatlin:

During a meeting on October 1, 2014, between Mr. Robert Johnston, Lead Developer, and

Mr. Michael Meeks, Senior Operations Engineer, arrangements were made for the

administration of licensing examinations at the Virgil C. Summer (Unit 1) Nuclear Station. The

operating test is scheduled to be administered during the week of May 4, 2015. The written

examination is scheduled to be administered the week of May 18, 2015. The on-site

preparatory week is scheduled for the week of April 6, 2015.

As agreed during the meeting, 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 April 13, 2015. 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.

Your staff provided the NRC regional office with the reference materials identified in

Attachment 3 to ES-201 and the operating test outlines on April 10, 2014. The full submission

of the operating tests will be due by February 22, 2015. 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 final outlines and operating 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.

T. Gatlin 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, medical certifications, and waiver

requests (if any) 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 the Office of

Management and Budget (OMB) under approval number 3150-0018, which expires on April 30,

2016. The public reporting burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 500

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 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 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).

T. Gatlin 3

Thank you for your cooperation in this matter. Mr. Johnston has been advised of the policies

and guidelines referenced in this letter. If you have any questions regarding the NRC's

examination procedures and guidelines, please contact Mr. Michael Meeks at (404) 997-4467,
