| ==Dear Mr. Krich:== | | ==Dear Mr. Krich:== |
| During the period February 7-16, 2011, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) administered operating tests to employees of your company who had applied for licenses to operate the Browns Ferry Nuclear Plant. At the conclusion of the tests, the examiners discussed preliminary findings related to the operating tests and the written examination submittal with those members of your staff identified in the enclosed report. The written examination was administered by your staff on February 18, 2011.
| | In a telephone conversation on August 9, 2010, between Mr. David Malinowski, Operations Training Manager and Mr. Ronald F. Aiello, Senior Operations Engineer, arrangements were made for the administration of licensing examinations at the Browns Ferry Nuclear Station. The operating test is scheduled to be administered during the weeks of February 7 and 14, 2011. The written examination is scheduled to be administered on February 17, 2011. The on-site preparatory week is scheduled for the week of Jan 17, 2011. |
|
| |
|
| Six Reactor Operator (RO) and Six Senior Reactor Operator (SRO) applicants passed both the operating test and written examination. One RO applicant passed the operating test but failed the written examination. There were no post-examination comments. A Simulator Fidelity Report is included in this report as Enclosure 2.
| | As agreed during the telephone conversation, your staff will prepare both the operating test and written examination based on the guidelines in Revision 9, Supplement 1, of NUREG-1021, "Operator Licensing Examination Standards for Power Reactors." The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) regional office will discuss with your staff any changes that might be necessary before the examinations are administered. Your staff has also agreed to make copies of all examination materials that are necessary for administering the examination. |
|
| |
|
| In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390 of the NRC's "Rules of Practice," a copy of this letter and its enclosure will be available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public Document Room or from the Publicly Available Records (PARS) component of NRC's document system (ADAMS). ADAMS is accessible from the NRC Web site at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html (the Public Electronic Reading Room).
| | To meet the above schedule, it will be necessary for your staff to furnish the operating test outline by November 2, 2010. Mr. Aiello provided a written examination outline to your staff in May 2010. The written examination, operating test, and the supporting reference materials identified in Attachment 3 to ES-201 will be due by November 16, 2010. 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 outline, examination, and test before they are submitted to the NRC for review and approval. All materials shall be complete and ready-to-use. |

| |
| | |
| Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) examiners conducted an initial examination in accordance with the guidelines in Revision 9, Supplement 1, of NUREG-1021, "Operator Licensing Examination Standards for Power Reactors." This examination implemented the operator licensing requirements identified in 10 CFR §55.41, §55.43, and §55.45, as applicable.
| |
| | |
| Members of the Browns Ferry Nuclear Station staff developed both the operating tests and the written examination.
| |
| | |
| The NRC administered the operating tests during the period of February 7-16, 2011. Members of the Browns Ferry Nuclear Plant training staff administered the written examination on February 18, 2011. Six Reactor Operator (RO) and Six Senior Reactor Operator (SRO) applicants passed both the written examination and operating test. One RO applicant passed the operating test but failed the written examination. Twelve applicants were issued licenses commensurate with the level of examination administered.
| |

| |
| | |
| No findings of significance were identified.
| |
| | |
| Enclosure 1 Report Details 4. OTHER ACTIVITIES 4OA2 Problem Identification and Resolution Annual Sample Review a. Inspection Scope The inspectors selected Problem Evaluation Report (PER) 324228 for a detailed review. The PER was initiated because the inspector identified several procedure issues during NRC Exam 2011-301 that lacked clear procedure guidance thus making them difficult to follow. The facility has committed to reviewing their current practices and procedures to better clarify or specify the applicable procedures in question. These procedures need to be strengthened to ensure that the actions operators take are clear and easy to follow. The inspectors checked that this issue had been completely and accurately identified in the licensee's Corrective Action Program (CAP) and properly classified and prioritized for resolution. Corrective actions have not been verified complete.
| |
| | |
| b. Findings No findings of significance were identified.
| |
| | |
| 4OA5 Operator Licensing Initial Examinations a. Inspection Scope Members of the Browns Ferry Nuclear Plant staff developed both the operating tests and the written examination. All examination material was developed in accordance with the guidelines contained in Revision 9, Supplement 1, of NUREG-1021, "Operator Licensing Examination Standards for Power Reactors." The NRC examination team reviewed the proposed examination. 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.
| |
| | |
| The NRC reviewed the licensee's examination security measures while preparing and administering the examinations in order to ensure compliance with 10 CFR §55.49, "Integrity of examinations and tests."
| |
| | |
| The NRC examiners evaluated Seven Reactor Operator (RO) and Six Senior Reactor Operator (SRO) applicants using the guidelines contained in NUREG-1021. The examiners administered the operating tests during the period of February 7-16, 2011. Members of the Browns Ferry Nuclear Plant training staff administered the written examination on February 18, 2011. Evaluations of applicants and reviews of associated documentation were performed to determine if the applicants, who applied for licenses to operate the Browns Ferry Nuclear Station, met the requirements specified in 10 CFR Part 55, "Operators' Licenses."
| |
| | |
| 4 Enclosure 1 b. Findings No findings of significance were identified. The NRC determined, using NUREG-1021 that the licensee's examination submittal was within the range of acceptability expected for a proposed examination.
| |
| | |
| Six SRO and six RO applicants passed both the written examination and operating test. One RO applicant passed the operating test but failed the written examination. Twelve applicants were issued licenses commensurate with the level of examination administered.
| |
| | |
| Copies of all individual examination reports were sent to the facility Training Manager for evaluation of weaknesses and determination of appropriate remedial training.
| |
| | |
| There were no post-examination comments. A copy of the final written examination, answer key, and references with all changes incorporated, may be accessed not earlier than February 28, 2013, in the ADAMS system (ADAMS Accession Numbers ML110760682 and ML110760683).
| |
| | |
| 4OA6 Meetings Exit Meeting Summary On February 16, 2011, the NRC examination team discussed generic issues associated with the operating test with Mr. Jay Miller, Operations Manager, and members of his staff. The examiners asked the licensee if any of the examination material was proprietary. No proprietary information was identified.

Mr. R. Vice President, Nuclear Licensing Tennessee Valley Authority 3R Lookout Place 1101 Market Street Chattanooga, TN 37402-2801
SUBJECT: BROWNS FERRY NUCLEAR STATION - NOTIFICATION OF LICENSED OPERATOR INITIAL EXAMINATION - 05000259/2011301, 05000260/2011301 AND 05000296/2011301
Dear Mr. Krich:
In a telephone conversation on August 9, 2010, between Mr. David Malinowski, Operations Training Manager and Mr. Ronald F. Aiello, Senior Operations Engineer, arrangements were made for the administration of licensing examinations at the Browns Ferry Nuclear Station. The operating test is scheduled to be administered during the weeks of February 7 and 14, 2011. The written examination is scheduled to be administered on February 17, 2011. The on-site preparatory week is scheduled for the week of Jan 17, 2011.
As agreed during the telephone conversation, your staff will prepare both the operating test and written examination based on the guidelines in Revision 9, Supplement 1, of NUREG-1021, "Operator Licensing Examination Standards for Power Reactors." The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) regional office will discuss with your staff any changes that might be necessary before the examinations are administered. Your staff has also agreed to make copies of all examination materials that are necessary for administering the examination.
To meet the above schedule, it will be necessary for your staff to furnish the operating test outline by November 2, 2010. Mr. Aiello provided a written examination outline to your staff in May 2010. The written examination, operating test, and the supporting reference materials identified in Attachment 3 to ES-201 will be due by November 16, 2010. 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 outline, examination, and 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.
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.
TVA 2 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.
