Abstract:
In lieu of the NRC preparing the initial operator licensing examinations using reference materials provided by the facility licensees, the NRC is now proposing to revise 10 CFR Part 55 to require power reactor facility licensees to prepare the written examinations and operating tests and submit them to the NRC for review. The NRC would review the examinations and tests, direct changes as necessary to l
maintain acceptable levels of quality, difficulty, and i
consistency, and authorize the facility licensee to l
administer and grade the written examinations.. The NRC l
