OPERATOR LICENSING WRITTEN EXAMINATION APPROVAL SALEM GENERATING STATION

Dear Mr. Braun:

The purpose of this letter is to confirm the final arrangements for the upcoming operator licensing examinations at the Salem Nuclear Generating Station. The NRC has approved the written test portion of the examination. Your staff is authorized to administer those tests to the applicants during the week of September 1, 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 concl uded that the examination meets the guidelines of NUREG-1021, Revision 9, Supplement 1 for content, operational, and discrimination validity. You also agree that it meets NUREG-1021 guidelines, and is appropriate for measuring the qualifications of lic ensed 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 (610) 337-5046. The operating test portion of the exam was previously approved for administration in my letter dated August 21, 2008.

Please contact your Chief Examiner, Brian C. Haagensen at 610-337-5084, if you have any questions or identify any errors or changes in the license level (RO or SRO).

Sincerely, /RA/ Samuel L. Hansell, Chief Operations Branch Division of Reactor Safety
