Title: Which sites require a Jr to take NUF?
Post by: Rennhack on Jul 29, 2014, 03:34
We have talked about whether it's a 5 year, or 4 years site for seniors, how about Juniors?

Which sites require Juniors to take the NUF, and do they require an 80%, or a 70?

But, Seabrook is the only site I have been to since 1991 that makes you take the test even if you passed the NRRPT...

Closer to topic, I have never been anywhere that made Juniors take the NUF (to my knowledge.)

Progress Energy/ Duke plants do require passing the NUF to work as a Jr. Tech.

I did not have to take the NUF as a Contractor Jr. at Palo Verde. The NUF was available for those that wish take it. They had their own site specific exam.

Good to know, when I worked there as a Jr, they DID require Jr's to take it. But that was soooo long and many RPM's ago.

May hold true for all of Entergy.

As a JR Tech, every site I've been to has required an NEU exam score of 70% for JRs.  The plants were Arkansas Nuclear, Waterford 3, Vermont Yankee and Davis-Besse.

When was this?  Was it recently?  Now days everyone but Diablo uses the NUF.

I understand that Progress Energy/ Duke plants require the NUF for Jrs.  70% or 80%?

I worked as a Jr. RP from 2004 to 2009 at PV. It could be different now.
