-CONFIRMATION OF INITIAL LICENSE EXAMINATION
Dear Mr. Bezilla:
In a telephone conversation on May 30, 2019
, between Mr. T. Gaydosik , Lead, Fleet Exam Team , and Mr. G. Roach, Senior Operations Engineer, arrangements were made for the administration of operator licensing examinations at the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station during the weeks of February 3 and February 10, 2020
. In addition, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) will make an examination validation visit to your facility the week of January 6, 2020
. As agreed upon during the telephone conversation, your staff will prepare the examinations based on the guidelines in Revision 11 to NUREG
-1021, "Operator Licensing Examination Standards for Power Reactors."
The NRC's regional office will discuss with your staff any changes that might be necessary before the examinations are administered.
To meet the above schedule, it will be necessary for your staff to furnish the operating test outlines by August 3 0, 2019. The NRC staff has previously provided the written examination outline. The written examinations, operating tests, and supporting reference materials identified in Attachment 3 to ES-201 , will be due by November 26, 2019. Pursuant to Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations
, Part 55.40(b)(3), an authorized representative of the facility licensee shall approve the 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. Delays in receiving the required materials, or the submittal of inadequate or incomplete materials, may cause the examinations to be cancelled or rescheduled.
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, along with any video and audio recordings of the dynamic operating tests, until the NRC takes licensing action on all the applications and any adjudicatory actions on any hearing demands are complete.
Appendix E to 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 waiver or excusal requests (if any) (Office of Management and Budget (OMB)
Control Number 3150-0090) at least 60 days before the first examination date (if possible). Contact Mr. G. Roach to determine the method for submission of the waiver or excusal requests. Preliminary reactor operator and senior reactor operator license applications (OMB Control Number 3150-0090) and medical certifications (OMB Control Number 3150-0024) should be submitted at least 30 days before the first examination date.
If the preliminary applications are not received at least 30 days before the examination date, a postponement may be necessary. Final signed applications certifying that all training has been completed and requesting any waivers or excusals, as applicable, should be submitted at least 14 days before the first examination date.
Although the guidelines for receiving waiver or excusal request s call for at least 30 days before the first examination date (preliminary) and 14 days before the first examination date (final), the requests should be submitted as early as possible in the process (see the 60-day guideline above). Resolutions resulting from verbal inquiries by the licensee to the NRC are not binding. Submittals addressing waivers or excusals, or both, should be in writing (i.e., using NRC Form 398, "Personal Qualifications Statement
-Licensee ," or as directed by Mr. G. Roach when contacting him to determine the method for submission). The NRC will document its final decision on whether to grant a waiver or excusal on the final (not preliminary) NRC Form 398 submitted for the applicant. The NRC will not provide its decision until the final application is submitted to the agency.
