  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 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 (PARS) component of the NRC's document system (ADAMS).  ADAMS is accessible from the NRC Website at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm.adams.html (the Public Electronic Reading Room).

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

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

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,
