Dear Mr. Dietrich:
On October 24, 2012, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed an initial operator license examination at San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station, Units 2 and 3. The enclosed report documents the examination results and licensing decisions. The preliminary examination results were discussed on October 22, 2012, with Mr. George Pickar, Operations Training Manager, and other members of your staff. A telephonic exit meeting was conducted on November 13, 2012, with Mr. Scott Rua, Operations Training, who was provided the NRC licensing decisions.
The examination included the evaluation of eight applicants for reactor operator licenses, nine applicants for instant senior reactor operator licenses and four applicants for upgrade senior reactor operator licenses. The license examiners determined that all of the applicants satisfied the requirements of 10 CFR Part 55, and the appropriate licenses have been issued. There were no post-examination comments submitted by your staff. The enclosure to this letter contains the details of this report.
No findings were identified during this examination.
In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390 of the NRC's "Rules of Practice," a copy of this letter and its enclosure will be available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public Document Room or from the Publicly Available Records (PARS) component of NRCs document system (ADAMS).
