administration, and grading of examinations used for licensing
operators at nuclear power plants pursuant to the Commission's
regulations in Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR)
Part 55, ``Operator Licenses.'' This draft NUREG also provides guidance
for maintaining operators' licenses, and for the NRC to conduct
requalification examinations when necessary.
Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 2nd day of December, 2013.
For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
