DRESDEN NUCLEAR POWER STATION OPERATOR LICENSING EXAMINATION APPROVAL


==Dear Mr. Pardee:==
==Dear Mr. Pardee:==
The purpose of this letter is to confirm the final arrangements for the upcoming operator licensing examinations at the Dresden Nuclear Power Station. The U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) has completed its review of the operator license applications submitted in connection with this examination and separately provided a list of approved applicants to Mr. George Graff, Training Director.
Note that any examination waivers and application denials have been addressed in separate correspondence. The NRC has approved the subject examinations and hereby authorizes you to administer the written examinations in accordance with Revision 9, of NUREG-1021, "Operator Licensing Examination Standards for Power Reactors," during the weeks of March 3 and 10, 2008. The NRC staff will administer the operating tests during the week of March 3 and 10, 2008. This examination has undergone extensive review by my staff and representatives responsible for licensed operator training at your facility. Based on this review, I have concluded that the examination meets the guidelines of NUREG-I021 for content, operational, and discrimination validity.
By administering this examination, you also agree that it meets NUREG-I021 guidelines, and is appropriate for measuring the qualifications of licensed operator applicants at your facility.
If you determine that this examination is not appropriate for licensing operators at your facility, do not administer the examination and contact me at 630-829-9707.
Please contact your Chief Examiner, Mr. Dell R. McNeil, at 630-829-9737, if you have any questions or identify any errors or changes in the license level (RO or SRO) or type of examination (partial or complete written examination and/or operating test) specified for each applicant. 


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 the NRC's Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS).

NRC Regulatory Issue Summary 2007-17, "Preparation and Scheduling of Operator Licensing Examinations," dated July 12,2007 The referenced Regulatory Issue Summary (RIS) requested that facility licensees provide a proposed schedule of operator licensing examinations and an estimate of the number of candidates to be tested in operator licensing examinations and the Generic Fundamentals Examinations (GFEs) for calendar years 2008 through 2011. Attachments 1 through 10 provide responses to RIS 2007-17 for the Exelon Generation Company, LLC (EGC) and AmerGen Energy Company, LLC (AmerGen) plants identified above. The requested information for each facility is provided on a separate NRC Form 536.
In calendar year 2009, 6 candidates are expected to take the dual site Limited Senior Reactor Operator (LSRO) initial license examination as indicated on Attachment 8. The schedule for the indicated examination is as follows: the written examination and part of the operating examination will be given at Limerick Generating Station (LGS); the remainder of the operating examination will be completed at Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station (PBAPS). Since the LSRO examination is a dual site examinationthat involves both LGS and PBAPS, rather than repeating the same information on both attachments, the examination scheduling information is provided on Attachment 8 for PBAPS. Attachment 6 for LGS references Attachment 8 where necessary.
The operator licensing examination information for each facility is provided on a separate NRC Form 536. There are no regulatory commitments contained within this letter. Should you have any questions about this letter, please contact Michelle Yun at (630) 657-2818.

FOR THE DRESDEN INITIAL EXAM MARCH 2008

UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION REGION Ill 2443 WARRENVILLE ROAD, SUITE 210 LISLE, ILLINOIS 60532-4352 February 27,2008 Mr. Charles G. Pardee Chief Nuclear Officer and Senior Vice President Exelon Generation Company, LLC 4300 Winfield Road Warrenville IL 60555

SUBJECT:

DRESDEN NUCLEAR POWER STATION OPERATOR LICENSING EXAMINATION APPROVAL

Dear Mr. Pardee:

The purpose of this letter is to confirm the final arrangements for the upcoming operator licensing examinations at the Dresden Nuclear Power Station.

The U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) has completed its review of the operator license applications submitted in connection with this examination and separately provided a list of approved applicants to Mr. George Graff, Training Director. Note that any examination waivers and application denials have been addressed in separate correspondence.

The NRC has approved the subject examinations and hereby authorizes you to administer the written examinations in accordance with Revision 9, of NUREG-1021, "Operator Licensing Examination Standards for Power Reactors," during the weeks of March 3 and 10, 2008. The NRC staff will administer the operating tests during the week of March 3 and 10, 2008. This examination has undergone extensive review by my staff and representatives responsible for licensed operator training at your facility. Based on this review, I have concluded that the examination meets the guidelines of NUREG-I021 for content, operational, and discrimination validity. By administering this examination, you also agree that it meets NUREG-I021 guidelines, and is appropriate for measuring the qualifications of licensed operator applicants at your facility. If you determine that this examination is not appropriate for licensing operators at your facility, do not administer the examination and contact me at 630-829-9707.

Please contact your Chief Examiner, Mr. Dell R. McNeil, at 630-829-9737, if you have any questions or identify any errors or changes in the license level (RO or SRO) or type of examination (partial or complete written examination and/or operating test) specified for each applicant.

C. Pardee 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 the NRC's Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS).

UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION REGION Ill 2443 WARRENVILLE ROAD, SUITE 2 10 LISLE, ILLINOIS 60532-4352 December 3,2007 Mr. Christopher M. Crane President and Chief Nuclear Officer Exelon Nuclear Exelon Generation Company, LLC 4300 Winfield Road Warrenville, IL 60555

Dear Mr. Crane:

In a telephone conversation on November 16,2007, between Mr. F. Ferrero, Senior Instructor, and Mr. Dell McNeil, Senior Operations Engineer, arrangements were made for the administration of licensing examinations at the Dresden Nuclear Power Station the weeks of March 3 and March 10, 2007. In addition, the NRC will make an examination validation visit to your facility the week of February 11,2007.

As agreed during the telephone conversation, your staff will prepare the examinations based on the guidelines in Revision 9 of NUREG-1021, "Operator Licensing Examination Standards for Power Reactors." The NRC regional office will discuss with your staff any changes that might be necessary before the examinations are administered.

To meet the above schedule, it was necessary for your staff to furnish the examination outlines by October 22, 2007. Your staff has already provided the examination outlines. The written examinations, operating tests, and the supporting reference materials identified in Attachment 2 to ES-201 will be due during the week of January 7,2007. Pursuant to 10 CFR 55.40(b)(3), of the Code of Federal Regulations ( I O CFR 55..40(b)(3)), an authorized representative of the facility licensee shall approve the outlines, examinations, and tests 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.

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-I021 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

C. Crane (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 the Office of Management and Budget, approval number 3150-0018, which expires on June 30,2009.

Response to NRC Regulatory Issue Summary 2007-17 "Preparation and Scheduling of Operator Licensing Examinations"

Reference:

NRC Regulatory Issue Summary 2007-17, "Preparation and Scheduling of Operator Licensing Examinations," dated July 12,2007 The referenced Regulatory Issue Summary (RIS) requested that facility licensees provide a proposed schedule of operator licensing examinations and an estimate of the number of candidates to be tested in operator licensing examinations and the Generic Fundamentals Examinations (GFEs) for calendar years 2008 through 2011. Attachments 1 through 10 provide responses to RIS 2007-17 for the Exelon Generation Company, LLC (EGC) and AmerGen Energy Company, LLC (AmerGen) plants identified above. The requested information for each facility is provided on a separate NRC Form 536.

In calendar year 2009, 6 candidates are expected to take the dual site Limited Senior Reactor Operator (LSRO) initial license examination as indicated on Attachment 8. The schedule for the indicated examination is as follows: the written examination and part of the operating examination will be given at Limerick Generating Station (LGS); the remainder of the operating examination will be completed at Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station (PBAPS). Since the LSRO examination is a dual site examinationthat involves both LGS and PBAPS, rather than repeating the same information on both attachments, the examination scheduling information is provided on Attachment 8 for PBAPS. Attachment 6 for LGS references Attachment 8 where necessary.

The operator licensing examination information for each facility is provided on a separate NRC Form 536. There are no regulatory commitments contained within this letter. Should you have any questions about this letter, please contact Michelle Yun at (630) 657-2818.
