SUBJECT:
BRUNSWICK NUCLEAR POWER PLANT - OPERATOR LICENSING WRITTEN
EXAMINATION APPROVAL 05000325/2017301 AND 05000324/2017301
Dear Mr. Hicks:
The purpose of this letter is to confirm the final arrangements for the upcoming operator
licensing operating examination at the Brunswick Nuclear Power Plant.
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) has completed its review of the operator
license applications submitted in connection with this examination and separately provided a list
of approved applicants to your office. The NRC staff will administer the operating tests to
individuals, as applicable, the weeks of July 24, 2017, and July 31, 2017. Note that any
examination waivers and application denials have been addressed in separate correspondence.
The NRC has approved the subject written examination and hereby authorizes you to
administer the written examination in accordance with Revision 10 of NUREG-1021, Operator
Licensing Examination Standards for Power Reactors, the week of August 7, 2017.
This examination has undergone extensive review by my staff and representatives responsible
for operator training at your facility. Based on this review, I have concluded that the
examination meets the guidelines of NUREG-1021 for content, operational, and discrimination
validity. By administering this examination, you also agree that it meets NUREG-1021
guidelines, and is appropriate for measuring the qualifications of licensed operators at your
facility. If you determine that this examination is not appropriate for licensing operators at your
facility, do not administer the examination and contact me at (404) 997-4551.
Please contact the Chief Examiner, Mr. Phillip Capehart, at (404) 997-4483, if you have any
questions or identify any errors or changes in license level (RO or SRO) or type of examination
(operating examination) specified for each applicant on the list of approved applicants.
Sincerely,
/RA/
Gerald J. McCoy, Chief
