The NRC staff will administer the re-take examinations during the week of March 2, 2009. This examination has undergone review by my staff and representatives responsible for licensed

By administering this examination, you also agree that it meets NUREG-1021 guidelines, and is appropriate for measuring the qualifications of licens ed operator applicants at your facility.
