SUBJECT:
COMANCHE PEAK NUCLEAR POWER PLANT - NRC WRITTEN RETAKE EXAMINATION REPORT 05000445/2020301 AND 05000446/2020301
Dear Mr. Peters:
On June 10, 2020, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed an initial operator license written retake examination at your Comanche Peak Nuclear Power Plant, Units 1 and 2. The enclosed report documents the examination results and licensing decisions.
The preliminary examination results were discussed on May 21, 2020, with Mr. J. Ruby, Examination and Simulator Supervisor. A telephonic exit meeting was conducted on June 10, 2020, with Mr. A. Marzloff, Director, Training, who was provided the NRC licensing decisions.
The examination included the evaluation of one applicant for a reactor operator license, one applicant for an instant senior reactor operator license, and two applicants for upgrade senior reactor operator licenses. The license examiner determined that all applicants satisfied the requirements of 10 CFR Part 55, and the appropriate licenses have been issued. There were no post-examination comments submitted by your staff. The enclosure contains details of this report.
No findings were identified during this examination.
This letter, its enclosure, and your response (if any) will be made available for public inspection and copying at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html and at the NRC Public Document Room in accordance with 10 CFR 2.390, Public Inspections, Exemptions, Requests for Withholding.
Sincerely, Gregory E. Werner Gregory E. Werner, Chief Operations Branch Division of Reactor Safety Docket Nos. 50-445 and 50-446 License Nos. NPF-87 and NPF-89

SUMMARY
ER 05000445/2020301; 05000446/2020301; May 21-June 10, 2020; Comanche Peak Nuclear
Power Plant, Units 1 and 2; Initial Operator Licensing Written Retake Examination Report.
The NRC examiner evaluated the competency of one applicant for a reactor operator license, one applicant for an instant senior reactor operator license, and two applicants for upgrade senior reactor operator licenses at Comanche Peak Nuclear Power Plant, Units 1 and 2.
The licensee developed the examination using NUREG-1021, "Operator Licensing Examination Standards for Power Reactors," Revision 11. The written retake examination was administered by the licensee on May 21, 2020.
The NRC examiner determined that all applicants satisfied the requirements of 10 CFR Part 55, and the appropriate licenses have been issued.
NRC-Identified and Self-Revealing Findings
None.
Licensee-Identified Violations
None.
REPORT DETAILS
OTHER ACTIVITIES
- INITIAL LICENSE EXAM
.1 License Applications
a. Scope
The NRC examiner reviewed all license applications submitted to ensure each applicant satisfied relevant license eligibility requirements.
b. Findings
No findings were identified.
.2 Examination Development
a. Scope
The NRC examiner provided the written retake examination outlines and reviewed the draft written retake examinations submitted by the licensee against the requirements of NUREG-1021.
b. Findings
The NRC examiner provided draft examination and post-validation comments to the licensee. The licensee satisfactorily completed comment resolution prior to examination administration.
The NRC examiner determined the written retake examination initially submitted by the licensee was within the range of acceptability expected for a proposed examination.
.3 Operator Knowledge and Performance
a. Scope
On May 21, 2020, the licensee proctored the administration of the written retake examinations to all applicants. The licensee staff graded the written retake examinations, analyzed the results, and presented their analysis to the NRC on June 4, 2020.
b. Findings
No findings were identified.
All applicants passed the written retake examination. The final written retake examinations and post-examination analysis may be accessed in the ADAMS system under the accession numbers noted in the attachment. There were no post-examination comments as indicated in the licensee submittal.
Post-examination analysis revealed seven generic weaknesses associated with applicant performance on the written retake examination:
- Ability to predict changes in pressurizer spray valve differential temperature
- Ability to determine rod position indication on a failure of the plant computer
- Ability to determine pressurizer pressure control on loss of a vital AC instrument bus
- Ability to predict a high flux reactor trip signal in response to loss of a source range instrument
