LICENSING EXAMINATION APPROVAL 05000424/202 1301 AND

05000425/2021301

Dear Mr. Downs:

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

licensing operating examination at the Vogtle Nuclear Generatin g Station Units 1&2.

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) has approved the s ubject examinations, and

you may administer the written examination in accordance with R evision 11 to NUREG-1021,

Operator Licensing Examination Standards for Power Reactors, during the week of

November 22, 2021. The NRC staff will administer the operating tests during the week of

November 15, 2021. The list of the applicants approved to take the examination has been

provided to your office. The exam ination has undergone extensi ve review by my staff and

representatives responsible for licensed operator training at y our facility. Based on this review, I

have concluded that the examination meets the guidelines of NUR EG-1021 for content,

operational, and discrimination validity. By administering thi s examination, you also agree that it

meets NUREG-1021 guidelines and is appropriate for measuring th e qualifications of licensed

operator applicants at your facility. If you determine that th is examination is not appropriate for

licensing operators at your facilit y, do not administer the exa mination and contact me at

404-997-4662.

Please contact the Chief Examiner, Mr. Daniel Bacon, at 404-997 -4518 if you have questions or

identify any errors or changes in license level (reactor operat or or senior reactor operator) or

type of examination (partial or complete written examination or operating test, or both) specified

for each applicant approved to take the examination.

Sincerely,

/RA/
