SUBJECT: NORTH ANNA NUCLEAR POWER PLANT - OPERATOR LICENSING

WRITTEN EXAMINATION APPROVAL 05000338/2016301 AND 05000339/2016301

Dear Mr. Standley:

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

written examination at North Anna Nuclear Power 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 will begin administering the operating tests to individuals, as

applicable, the weeks of June 20, 2016, and June 27, 2016. 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 10 of NUREG-1021, Operator Licensing Examination

Standards for Power Reactors, the week of July 4, 2016.

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. Bruno Caballero, at (404) 997-4608 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/

Eugene F. Guthrie, Chief
