SUBJECT: COMANCHE PEAK NUCLEAR POWER PLANT, UNITS 1 AND 2 - NRC INITIAL OPERATOR LICENSING EXAMINATION APPROVAL

05000445/201

6 301; 05000446/2016301 Dear Mr. Peters:

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

licensing examinations at

the Comanche Peak Nuclear Power Plant, Units 1 and 2.

The 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

R. Blankenship, Facility Representative. Note that any examination waivers and application denials

have been addressed in separate

correspondence.

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) has approved the subject examinations and you may administer the written examinations in accordance with Revision 10, of NUREG-1021, "Operator Licensing Examination Standards for Power Reactors," on

July 18, 2016. The NRC staff will

administer the operating tests during the week of July 11, 2016. This examination has undergone extensive review by my staff and representatives responsible for licensed 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 operator applicants 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 (817) 200

-1159. Please contact your Chief Examiner, Brian Larson, at (817) 200

-1172, if you have any questions

or identify any errors or changes in the license level (RO

or SRO) or type of examination (partial

or complete written examination and/or operating test) specified for each applicant.

Sincerely,

/RA/ Vincent Gaddy, Chief Operations Branch
