SUBJECT: SEQUOYAH NUCLEAR PLANT - OPERATOR LICENSING WRITTEN

EXAMINATION APPROVAL 05000327/2010302 AND 05000328/2010302

Dear Ms. Ware:

The purpose of this letter is to confirm the final arrangements for the upcoming operator licensing written

examination at Sequoyah Nuclear Plant.

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 your office. The NRC staff administered the operating tests to individuals, as applicable,

during the weeks of September 13, 2010 and September 20, 2010. Note that any examination waivers

and application denials have been addressed in separate correspondence.

The NRC has approved the subject written examination and hereby authorizes you to administer the

written examination in accordance with Revision 9, Supplement 1, of NUREG-1021, Operator Licensing

Examination Standards for Power Reactors, on September 29, 2010.

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) 997-4550.

Please contact the Chief Examiner, Mr. Richard 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 (partial or complete

written examination and/or operating test) specified for each applicant on the list of approved applicants.

Sincerely,

/RA/
