SUBJECT:

OPERATOR AND SENIOR OPERATOR LICENSING EXAMINATIONS In a telephone conversation between Mr. Sam Harmon, Training and Mr. Larry Dimmock, Operator Licensing, arrangements were made for the administration of examinations at the LaSalle County Nuclear Station.

The written and oral examinations are scheduled for the week of November 18, 1985.

Mr. Harmon has been advised of our reference material requirements, the number of reference material sets that are required, and the examiners' names and addresses where each set is to be mailed.

The facility management is responsible for providing adequate space and facilities in order to properly conduct the written examinations.

Enclosure 1, " Administration of Operator / Senior Operator Licensing Written Examinations," describes our requirements for conducting these examinations.

Mr. Hannon has also been infonned of these requirements.

. All operator and senior license applications should nonnally be submitted at least 60 days prior to the first examination dates so that we will be able to review the training and experience of the candidates, process the medical certifications, and prepare final examiner assignments af ter candidate eligibility has been determined. If the applications are not received at least 30 days prior to the examination dates it is likely that a postponement will be necessary.

This request for information was approved by the Office of Management and Budget under Clearance Number 3150-0101, which expires June 30, 1986.

Coments on burden and duplication may be directed to the Office of Management and Budget, Reports Management Room 3208, New Executive Office Building, Washington, D.C. 20503.
