content valid examinations used for licensing operators at nuclear
power plants under the Commission's regulations contained in part 55 of
title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR), ``Operator
Licenses.'' The examinations developed using NUREG-1122 and NUREG-1123,
along with NUREG-1021, ``Operator Licensing Examination Standards for
Power Reactors,'' will sample the topics listed in 10 CFR part 55.
Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 10th day of April, 2017.
For the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
