Operator Licensing Examination Question Bank; Notice of Public 
Availability

AGENCY: Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

ACTION: Notice of Availability.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission has developed the NRC 
Operator Licensing Examination Question Bank (EQB) to be used by 
examiners for the construction and storage of operator examination 
questions for Reactor Operators (ROs) and Senior Reactor Operators 
(SROs). The data base and the mainframe computer on which it resides is 
located at the Idaho National Engineering Laboratory (INEL) in Idaho 
Falls, Idaho, and is maintained under contract to the NRC by INEL.
    The EQB data is in the form of questions, answers, and references 
and is being made available on request. All information requested can 
be transferred in magnetic tape, diskette, or paper computer printout. 
Personal computer software and a user's manual for active on-line 
access may also be provided. Procedures to request specific information 
from the EQB and to obtain on-line access are enclosed. Costs in 
providing this information and EQB access are normally charged to the 
requestor by the INEL unless provisions of the Freedom of Information 
Act that provide for public access to information are invoked.
    Requestors of information should be aware that the information, 
software, or user documentation provided will be current only at the 
time it is requested, since updates and changes occur frequently. INEL, 
under the terms of its contract with NRC, is not required to provide 
training or technical assistance software support for requestors.
