NRC OPERATOR LICENSING EXAMINATION REPORT 50-275/02-301; 50-323/02-301
Dear Mr. Rueger:
On November 1, 2002, the NRC completed an examination at your Diablo Canyon Nuclear Power Plant, Units 1 and 2. The enclosed report documents the examination findings which were discussed on November 1, 2002, with Paul Roller, Maintenance Director, and other members of your staff.
The examination included the evaluation of 7 applicants for reactor operator licenses and 3 applicants for senior operator licenses. We determined that 9 of the 10 applicants satisfied the requirements of 10 CFR Part 55, and the appropriate licenses have been issued.
In accordance with 10 CFR 2.790 of the NRCs "Rules of Practice," a copy of this letter and your response will be made available electronically for public examination in the NRC Public Document Room or from the Publicly Available Records (PARS) component of NRCs 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).
Sincerely,
/RA/

Report Details 4. OTHER ACTIVITIES 4OA4 Initial License Examinations
.1 Operator Knowledge and Performance a. Examination Scope On October 25, 2002, the licensee proctored the administration of the written examination to all 10 applicants. The NRC monitored the proctoring of the examination and noted that the written examination was appropriately proctored, security met the requirements of NUREG 1021, and the clarification of questions proffered by the applicants was appropriate to the circumstances of the questions involved. The licensee staff graded the written examinations, analyzed the results, and presented their analysis to the NRC on November 1, 2002.
The NRC examination team administered the various portions of the operating examination to the applicants on October 28 - November 1, 2002. The seven applicants for reactor operator licenses participated in two dynamic simulator scenarios, a control room and facilities walkthrough test consisting of ten system tasks, and an administrative test consisting of four administrative tasks. The two applicants that were upgrading from a reactor operator license to a senior operator license participated in one dynamic simulator scenario apiece, while one senior operator applicant participated in two dynamic scenarios. The two upgrade senior operator license applicants participated in a control room and facilities walkthrough test consisting of five system tasks, and an administrative test consisting of five administrative tasks. The single senior operator license applicant participated in, a control room and facilities walkthrough test consisting of ten system tasks, and an administrative test consisting of five administrative tasks.
b. Findings Nine of the ten applicants passed all parts of the examinations. One upgrade senior operator applicant failed the administrative section of the operating test. The examiners determined that the applicant who failed, did not demonstrate performance that compromised the applicants status at the time as a licensed reactor operator. The applicants demonstrated good 3-way communications, alarm response, and peer checking. For the written examinations, the reactor operator applicants average score was 91.8 percent and ranged from 88 to 98 percent. The scores for the senior operator applicants averaged 91.3 percent and ranged from 89 to 93 percent. The overall written examination average was 91.7 percent. The text of the examination questions may be accessed in the ADAMS system under accession number noted in the attachment.
The licensee conducted a performance analysis for the written examinations with emphasis on three questions missed by half or more of the applicable applicants. The licensee concluded that there were no commonalities in the knowledge deficiencies.
The licensee recommended that no questions be modified to accept other answers or deleted from the written examination. The chief examiner reviewed the licensees
-2-analysis and applicant performance and found the conclusions to be technically valid.
The licensee scheduled an exam review with the applicants to provide remedial training to address the knowledge deficiencies.
No findings of significance were identified.
