| |
| | |
| The NRC evaluated the submitted operating test by combining the scenario events and JPMs in order to determine the percentage of submitted test items that required replacement or modification. The NRC also evaluated the submitted written examination questions (RO and SRO questions considered separately) in order to determine the percentage of submitted questions that required replacement or modification, or that clearly did not conform with the intent of the approved knowledge and ability (K/A)
| |
| statement. The percentage of submitted test items that were unacceptable was compared to the acceptance criteria of NUREG-1021, "Operator Licensing Standards for Power Reactors."
| |
| | |

Examination changes agreed upon between the NRC and the licensee were made per NUREG-1021 and incorporated into the final version of the examination materials.
| |
| | |
| 4 Using NUREG-1021, the NRC determined that the licensee's initial examination submittal was within the range of acceptability expected for a proposed examination.
| |
| | |
| Nine RO applicants and seven SRO applicants passed both the operating test and written examination. All applicants were issued licenses.
| |
| | |
| Copies of all individual examination reports were sent to the facility Training Director for evaluation of weaknesses and determination of appropriate remedial training. A copy of the final RO and SRO written examinations and answer keys may be accessed not earlier than September 25, 2017 in the ADAMS system (ADAMS Accession Numbers ML15300A490, ML15300A485).
| |

1021, "Operator Licensing Examination Standards for Power Reactors," the week of September 21, 2015.
This examination has undergone extensive review by my staff and representatives responsible for operator training at your facility. Based on this review, I have concluded that the examination meets the guidelines of NUREG-1021 for content, operational, and discrimination validity. By administering this examination, you also agree that it meets NUREG-1021 guidelines, and is appropriate for measuring the qualifications of licensed operators 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 (404) 997-4662. Please contact the Chief Examiner, Mr. Richard S. Baldwin, at (404) 997-4642, if you have any questions or identify any errors or changes in license level (RO or SRO) or type of examination (written examination) specified for each applicant on the list of approved applicants.
Sincerely,/RA/
