Note:
- 1.
Ensure that at least two topics from every applicable K/A category are sampled within each tier of the RO and SRO-only outline sections (i.e., except for one category in Tier 3 of the SRO-only section, the Tier Totals in each K/A category shall not be less than two). (One Tier 3 radiation control K/A is allowed if it is replaced by a K/A from another Tier 3 category.)
- 2.
The point total for each group and tier in the proposed outline must match that specified in the table. The final point total for each group and tier may deviate by +/-1 from that specified in the table based on NRC revisions. The final RO exam must total 75 points, and the SRO-only exam must total 25 points.
- 3.
Systems/evolutions within each group are identified on the outline. Systems or evolutions that do not apply at the facility should be deleted with justification. Operationally important, site-specific systems/evolutions that are not included on the outline should be added. Refer to Section D.1.b of ES-401 for guidance regarding the elimination of inappropriate K/A statements.
- 4.
Select topics from as many systems and evolutions as possible. Sample every system or evolution in the group before selecting a second topic for any system or evolution.
- 5.
Absent a plant-specific priority, only those K/As having an importance rating (IR) of 2.5 or higher shall be selected. Use the RO and SRO ratings for the RO and SRO-only portions, respectively.
- 6.
Select SRO topics for Tiers 1 and 2 from the shaded systems and K/A categories.
- 7.
The generic (G) K/As in Tiers 1 and 2 shall be selected from Section 2 of the K/A catalog, but the topics must be relevant to the applicable evolution or system. Refer to Section D.1.b of ES-401 for the applicable K/As.
- 8.
On the following pages, enter the K/A numbers, a brief description of each topic, the topics IRs for the applicable license level, and the point totals (#) for each system and category. Enter the group and tier totals for each category in the table above. If fuel-handling equipment is sampled in a category other than Category A2 or G* on the SRO-only exam, enter it on the left side of Column A2 for Tier 2, Group 2. (Note 1 does not apply). Use duplicate pages for RO and SRO-only exams.
- 9.
For Tier 3, select topics from Section 2 of the K/A catalog and enter the K/A numbers, descriptions, IRs, and point totals (#) on Form ES-401-3. Limit SRO selections to K/As that are linked to 10 CFR 55.43.
G* Generic K/As
- These systems/evolutions must be included as part of the sample (as applicable to the facility) when Revision 3 of the K/A catalog is used to develop the sample plan. They are not required to be included when using earlier revisions of the K/A catalog.
- These systems/evolutions may be eliminated from the sample (as applicable to the facility) when Revision 3 of the K/A catalog is used to develop the sample plan.

(Q#5) 022 AK1.01 (2.8) 022 - Loss of Reactor Coolant Makeup. The original K/A concerns a potential loss of reactor coolant makeup as RCS pressure rises. This is not applicable on Unit 1 for several reasons. RCS makeup flow is controlled with a makeup valve that controls pressurizer level. By design, the shutoff head of the makeup pumps is so high that any change in RCS pressure wont be enough to affect makeup flow in the long term. Also, the Loss of Makeup AOP only addresses leaks within the makeup system or a trip of a running makeup pump. Randomly selected AK1.01 which focuses on the consequences of thermal shock to RCP seals after a loss of makeup scenario.

Note:
- 1.
Ensure that at least two topics from every applicable K/A category are sampled within each tier of the RO and SRO-only outline sections (i.e., except for one category in Tier 3 of the SRO-only section, the Tier Totals in each K/A category shall not be less than two). (One Tier 3 radiation control K/A is allowed if it is replaced by a K/A from another Tier 3 category.)
- 2.
The point total for each group and tier in the proposed outline must match that specified in the table. The final point total for each group and tier may deviate by +/-1 from that specified in the table based on NRC revisions. The final RO exam must total 75 points, and the SRO-only exam must total 25 points.
- 3.
Systems/evolutions within each group are identified on the outline. Systems or evolutions that do not apply at the facility should be deleted with justification. Operationally important, site-specific systems/evolutions that are not included on the outline should be added. Refer to Section D.1.b of ES-401 for guidance regarding the elimination of inappropriate K/A statements.
- 4.
Select topics from as many systems and evolutions as possible. Sample every system or evolution in the group before selecting a second topic for any system or evolution.
- 5.
Absent a plant-specific priority, only those K/As having an importance rating (IR) of 2.5 or higher shall be selected. Use the RO and SRO ratings for the RO and SRO-only portions, respectively.
- 6.
Select SRO topics for Tiers 1 and 2 from the shaded systems and K/A categories.
- 7.
The generic (G) K/As in Tiers 1 and 2 shall be selected from Section 2 of the K/A catalog, but the topics must be relevant to the applicable evolution or system. Refer to Section D.1.b of ES-401 for the applicable K/As.
- 8.
On the following pages, enter the K/A numbers, a brief description of each topic, the topics IRs for the applicable license level, and the point totals (#) for each system and category. Enter the group and tier totals for each category in the table above. If fuel-handling equipment is sampled in a category other than Category A2 or G* on the SRO-only exam, enter it on the left side of Column A2 for Tier 2, Group 2. (Note 1 does not apply). Use duplicate pages for RO and SRO-only exams.
- 9.
For Tier 3, select topics from Section 2 of the K/A catalog and enter the K/A numbers, descriptions, IRs, and point totals (#) on Form ES-401-3. Limit SRO selections to K/As that are linked to 10 CFR 55.43.

ES-401 Record of Rejected K/As Form ES-401-4 Tier/Group Randomly Selected K/A Reason for Rejection SRO T1/G1 027 AA2.14 (2.9)
(Q#78) 027 AA2.11 (4.1) 027 - Pressurizer Pressure Control System Malfunction. The original K/A concerned interpreting RCP injection flow given a PZR control system malfunction. This is not applicable on Unit 1 as RCP injection flow has its own flow controller which will maintain flow based on its own set point. Also the 1203.015 doesnt specifically discuss any effects on RCP seal injection flow for any type of control system failure.
Randomly selected AA2.11 which concerns the effect on RCS pressure.
SRO T1/G1 056 2.4.42 (3.8)
(Q#81) 056 2.4.20 (4.3) 056 - Loss of Offsite Power. Since this is a T1 K/A, generic K/As must be selected from the list provided in D.1.b of ES-401. The original KA was not found in this list.
Utilized 2.4.20 which was originally in the T3 section at Q#100, but was rejected since it is a T1 K/A not a T3 K/A.
SRO T1/G2 067 AA2.13 (4.4)
(Q#83) 067 AA2.17 (4.3) 067 - Plant Fire On Site. The original K/A concerned the need for an emergency plant shutdown based on a plant fire. 1203.49 is written generically to first allow assessment from the operators and then later determine if a reactor trip is required. There is no specific trip criteria based on a fire alone, so any conditions given in a question that would require a reactor trip would already have guidance in another EOP or AOP.
Randomly selected AA2.17 which concerns systems that may be affected by an onsite fire.
SRO T1/G2 078 2.2.40 (4.7)
(Q#84) 037 2.2.40 (4.7) 078 - RCS Leak. This APE is not in Rev 2 K/A catalog but will be released in Rev 3.
Randomly selected APE37 Steam Generator Tube Leak instead.
SRO T2/G1 103 A2.02 (3.2)
(Q#90) 103 A2.03 (3.8) 103 - Containment System. The original K/A concerns conditions needed for work in containment given a malfunction or operation of the containment system and a procedure that would be used to control or mitigate the situation. There is no clear procedural guidance on when entry into containment is allowed based upon containment conditions. This would be governed by Radiation Protection or industrial safety procedures/personnel. Randomly selected A2.03 which concerns the procedures that would be used to mitigate or control the effects of containment SRO T2/G2 002 2.4.30 (4.1)
(Q#91) 002 2.4.8 (4.5) 002-Reactor Coolant System. The original K/A concerns the knowledge of system operation/status that must be reported to outside agencies. This K/A belongs in T3, not T2. Since the K/A for Q#100 in T3 was rejected, moved 2.4.30 for Q#91 to Q#100.
Randomly selected K/A 2.4.8 for Q#91 which is the knowledge of how AOPs are used with EOPs.
SRO T3 2.4.4 (4.7)
(Q#99) 2.4.14 (4.5)
The original K/A concerns the recognition of entry conditions for EOPs and AOPs. This is RO level knowledge. Randomly selected 2.4.14 which concerns the general guidelines for EOP usage.
SRO T3 2.4.20 (4.3)
(Q#100) 2.4.30 (4.1)
The original K/A concerns the knowledge of the operational implications of notes cautions and warnings of EOPs. This is a T1 question and was moved to Q#81 since Q#81 K/A was rejected. Moved 2.4.30 for Q#91 to Q#100 because it is a T3 K/A.

ES-301 Transient and Event Checklist Form ES-301-5 Instructions:
1.
Check the applicant level and enter the operating test number and Form ES-D-1 event numbers for each event type; TS are not applicable for RO applicants. ROs must serve in both the at-the-controls (ATC) and balance-of-plant (BOP) positions. Instant SROs (SRO-I) must serve in both the SRO and the ATC positions, including at least two instrument or component (I/C) malfunctions and one major transient, in the ATC position. If an SRO-I additionally serves in the BOP position, one I/C malfunction can be credited toward the two I/C malfunctions required for the ATC position.
2.
Reactivity manipulations may be conducted under normal or controlled abnormal conditions (refer to Section D.5.d) but must be significant per Section C.2.a of Appendix D. (*) Reactivity and normal evolutions may be replaced with additional I/C malfunctions on a one-for-one basis.
3.
Whenever practical, both instrument and component malfunctions should be included; only those that require verifiable actions that provide insight to the applicants competence count toward the minimum requirements specified for the applicants license level in the right-hand columns.
4.
For new reactor facility licensees that use the ATC operator primarily for monitoring plant parameters, the chief examiner may place SRO-I applicants in either the ATC or BOP position to best evaluate the SRO-I in manipulating plant controls.

Appendix D Scenario Outline Page 3 of 5 SCENARIO 1 NARRATIVE Event One: Normal operation to swap ICW Pumps The crew will assume plant responsibility at ~100% power. The SRO will direct swapping ICW Pumps in accordance with OP-1104.028 Section 10.0. The BOP will open cross-connect valves, direct venting the pump, then start P-33B and after 3 minutes stop P-33A. (BOP-N)
(SRO-N)
Event Two: P-3A Circ Water Pump sheared shaft The first indication will be lowering vacuum. The crew will then receive K05-B2, Condenser Vacuum Low alarm and take actions as directed by the ACA. The SRO will enter Loss of Condenser Vacuum AOP and direct the ATC to maintain power less than 100% and gradually lower power to stabilize vacuum. The BOP should diagnose the sheared shaft with the help of the Outside AOs report of back flow coming from the A CW Bay. The SRO will direct starting P-3D and stopping P-3A. Once vacuum is stabilized the down power will be stopped. (ATC-C)
(BOP-C) (SRO-C) AOP Event Three: Pressurizer level transmitter (LT-1001) fails low Once the plant is stabilized, the controlling pressurizer level transmitter will fail low. This will cause K09-C3, Pressurizer Level Lo and K09-A3, Pressurizer Level Lo-Lo. The crew should diagnose the failure by comparing diverse indication of pressurizer level and the lack of RCS pressure drop. The SRO will utilize OP-1203.015, Pressurizer Systems Failure, Section 4 -
pressurizer Level Indication Malfunction. The ATC will determine that LT-1002 is the valid signal and select it for level control. The SRO will enter Post Accident Monitoring (PAM)
Instrumentation T.S 3.3.15. (ATC-C) (SRO-C) AOP, TS Event Four: Pressurizer Steam Space Leak (15 gpm) develops The crew will recognize indications of an RCS leak (Makeup flow rising, Reactor Building temperature rising, RCS pressure lowering) and receive K10-B2, Process Monitor Radiation Hi alarm. The crew will calculate a leak rate of ~15 gpm. The SRO will enter OP-1203.039, Excess RCS Leakage AOP and direct the crew accordingly. The SRO will also enter RCS Operational Leakage T.S. 3.4.13 Condition A. The crew will commence a plant shutdown at a rate ~ 5%/min in accordance with OP-1203.045, Rapid Plant Shutdown (ATC-C) (BOP-C)
(SRO-C) AOP, TS Event Five / Six: Pressurizer Steam Space Leak (~800 gpm) RPS failed, will not automatically trip the reactor Once the TS entry is announced RCS leak will get larger which will ensure that a plant maneuver has started. Additionally RPS is failed such that a manual reactor trip will be required when an RPS trip setpoint is exceeded. The critical task of tripping the reactor must be performed within one minute of exceeding an RPS trip setpoint. This is a time critical operator action as described in EN-OP-123, Time Critical Action/Time Sensitive Action Program Standard. This critical task will be met even if the crew decides to trip prior to exceeding a setpoint. (ATC-C) (BOP-C) (SRO-C) EOP, CT CT Justification: CT-23 Safety significance - Failure of Reactor Protection System (RPS)
Initiating Cue - RCS Pressure <1800 psig Measurable Performance Standard - Manually trip the reactor within 1 minute of exceeding the RPS trip setpoint. This criterion is based on EN-OP-123, Time Critical Action / Time Sensitive Action Program Standard, which describes the following: On failure of RPS trip and failure of Main Reactor Trip pushbuttons. Within 1 minute, trip CRD backup trip breakers (A-501 and B-631) from C03. While this is not exactly the same situation, one minute provides adequate time for the crew to recognize the condition and trip the plant as required.
Performance Feedback - Reactor tripped, all rods inserted, and reactor power dropping.
Appendix D Scenario Outline Page 4 of 5 NOTE to Kelly - This CT will likely be completed before the RCS pressure reaches 1800 psig (it takes ~10 seconds to reach setpoint). In other words, conservative action by the crew will take place when they realize the rate of pressure drop due to the steam space leak. I want to make sure with you, during this initial submittal that you agree we still have a CT even if we dont exceed an RPS setpoint prior to the trip.
Event Seven: Steam Space Leak results in a Loss of Subcooling Margin Following the reactor trip RCS pressure will continue to drop resulting in a Loss of Subcooling Margin, this will require a transition to the contingency EOP. The second critical task of tripping all RCPs within two minutes of a LOSM will be required during this event. The SRO will direct the crew in accordance with OP-1202.002 Loss of Subcooling Margin. (ATC-C) (BOP-C) (SRO-C) EOP, CT CT Justification: CT-1 Safety significance - Failure of a fission product barrier (RCS)
Initiating Cue - SCM monitor on ICCMDS indicates <30 oF and timer counting. Train A/B ICC Event alarms on K11.
Measureable Performance Standard - Trip ALL RCPs within 2 minutes of LOSM following the reactor trip.
Performance Feedback - Change of status lamps on control console for RCPs and indicated RCS flow near zero.
The scenario can be terminated at the discretion of the lead examiner.

Appendix D Scenario Outline Page 3 of 6 SCENARIO 2 NARRATIVE Event One: Normal operation align for two minute delithiation The crew will assume plant responsibility at ~100% power. The SRO will direct commencing Chemistry requested two minute delithiation in accordance with OP-1104.002 Section10.0.
(ATC-N) (SRO-N)
Event Two: Pressurizer Heater ground fault Following the delithiation, an annunciator will alert the crew of a pressurizer heater ground fault K09-E3, the SRO will direct the crew from OP-1203.015, Pressurizer System Failure -
Inoperative Pressurizer Heater section. The BOP will direct the NLO to investigate breakers in accordance with the ACA. Report from the field will be that the breaker for Bank 2 vital powered heaters cannot be closed. The SRO will declare Bank 2 Inoperable and enter T.S.
(T.S 3.4.9 Condition C) (SRO-C) TS Event Three: Degrading Vacuum due to low seal water pressure Once the T.S. entry has been announced to the crew, vacuum will begin to degrade due to a loss of seal water to the in service vacuum pump. K05-B2, Condenser Vacuum Lo, will alert the crew to the degrading vacuum. The SRO will direct the crew from OP-1203.016, Loss of Condenser Vacuum and OP-1203.045, Rapid Plant Shutdown. The ATC will take SG/RX to HAND and initially maintain power <100%, then will continue to lower power in an attempt to stabilize vacuum. The BOP will direct the filed operators to look for issues that could be causing the lowering vacuum. A report from the field will indicate that a loss of seal water pressure to in service vacuum pump, C-5A is the cause of the transient. The BOP will start the standby vacuum pump and secure the running vacuum pump. Vacuum will then begin to recover. The ATC should then stabilize reactor power.
Event Four: P-33C ICW Pump trips with a failure of P-33B to automatically start Once vacuum and power are stabilized, the running Nuclear ICW Pump (P-33C) will trip with a failure of the standby pump P-33B to automatically start. This will require the ATC to diagnose and manually start P-33B ICW pump. It will also result in a high temperature automatic isolation of the letdown flowpath. The BOP will utilize OP-1104.002 Section 14.0, Recovery of Letdown Following High Letdown Temperature. (ATC-C) (BOP-C) (SRO-C) ACA Event Five: Inverter Y11 Failure Once letdown is recovered, Annunciator K01-A5 will alarm to inform the control room of an RS1 Inverter Trouble. The BOP will dispatch the NLO to investigate. Report from the field will be that the Y11 Inverter has failed and has automatically selected the Alternate Power Supply. The SRO will declare Y11 Inoperable and enter T.S. 3.8.7 Condition A and direct the NLO to make preparations for placing Y13 into service. (SRO-C) TS Event Six: Main Steam Header Pressure Bias Failure Once the T.S. entry has been announced to the crew, the 50 psig bias to the Turbine Bypass Valves (TBVs) will fail to zero. This will cause the TBVs to open slightly, which will lower header pressure and MWe output. The Turbine Governor Valves will close and rods will pull in an attempt to raise header pressure. The ATC will take SG/RX to hand and keep power less than 100% while the BOP places the Turbine in Manual and the TBVs in Hand and closed. The ATC and BOP will work together to maintain power <100% while recovering header pressure. Once header pressure is recovered, the Turbine and SG/RX can be returned to automatic control.
The TBVs will remain in Hand.
Appendix D Scenario Outline Page 4 of 6 Event Seven: Generator H2 Temperature Controller Setpoint Failure When directed by the lead examiner, the setpoint for the Main Generator H2 temperature controller will fail high causing the controller to raise H2 temperature. The crew will respond to the rising temperatures or the annunciator K04-B6. The BOP will take manual control of the control valve with TIC-4018 and return temperatures to pre-transient values. (BOP-C) (SRO-C)
ACA, CT CT Justification:
Safety significance - Prevent an unnecessary reactor trip.
Initiating Cue - Generator Hydrogen temperature rising and Annunciator K04-B6 Measurable Performance Standard - Manually control Hydrogen temperature with TIC-4018 and prevent the need for a Turbine / Reactor Trip Performance Feedback - Hydrogen temperatures and ACW flow returns to near pre-transient values Event Eight: Main Steam Line break inside containment Once H2 temperature is recovering, the major event will begin. A main steam line break inside containment will result in RB pressure rising to the ESAS actuation setpoint of Channels 1-6.
After the immediate actions of Reactor Trip are completed, the SRO should identify the need to transition to the Overcooling EOP. (ATC-C) (BOP-C) (SRO-C) EOP Event Nine: ESAS Channels 5 & 6 fail to actuate automatically A main steam line break inside containment will result in RB pressure rising to the ESAS actuation setpoint of Channels 1-6. However, Channels 5 & 6 are failed and will not automatically actuate. The ATC will identify the failure and manually actuate Channels 5 & 6. If the ATC does not recognize the failure, then the BOP will identify the failure during the performance of RT-10 which verifies actuation of ESAS. The critical task of actuating Channels 5 & 6 must be performed prior to the completion of RT-10. (ATC-C) (BOP-C) (SRO-C) EOP, CT CT Justification: CT-19 Safety significance - Isolate possible RCS leak paths and assure containment integrity.
Initiating Cue - RB Pressure HI (2.175 psig) alarm on K11 and Reactor Building pressure >4 psig (ESAS setpoint).
Measurable Performance Standard - Manually actuate Channels 5 & 6 prior to reporting the completion of RT-10.
Performance Feedback - Annunciators for RB Isolation Channel 5 & 6 on K11 and components reposition to ESAS position for Channels 5 & 6.
Appendix D Scenario Outline Page 5 of 6 Event Ten: EFIC Vector Isolation failure for one EFW flow path to faulted generator A malfunction of the Vector Isolation signal to the faulted generator will result in continuing to feed the bad steam generator. The ATC should identify this failure and manually isolate the flowpath by closing CV-2670 or CV-2646 or both in accordance with RT-6. This will stop the feed source of overcooling. Once the bad steam generator depressurizes the overcooling will be terminated and the crew will stabilize RCS temperature.
CT Justification: CT-16 Safety significance - Excessive primary to secondary heat transfer due to overfeeding faulted steam generator.
Initiating Cue - RCS overcooling in progress, lower than normal steam generator pressure, skewed EFW flow to faulted steam generator.
Measurable Performance Standard - Manually isolate all FW flow (MFW and EFW) to the faulted steam generator prior to steam generator reaching 400 inches (Carry-over into main steam lines)
Performance Feedback - EFW flowrate near zero, faulted steam generator pressure trending towards zero, RCS temperature stable or rising.
The scenario can be terminated at the discretion of the lead examiner.

Appendix D Scenario Outline Page 3 of 5 SCENARIO 5 NARRATIVE Event One: Place A MFWP in service and secure P-75 Aux FW Pump The SRO will direct the ATC to place the A MFW pump in service as directed in 1102.002 Plant Startup Procedure. When the A MFW pump is supplying feedwater to the steam generators, the SRO will direct the BOP to secure P-75 the Aux. FW pump.
(ATC-N) (BOP-N) (SRO-N)
Event Two: Reset ARTS The SRO will then direct that the Anticipatory Reactor Trips (ARTS) reset in RPS for the A MFW pump. Failure to perform the ARTS reset will result in a reactor trip when reactor power exceeds 7% power. (CT) ARTS must be reset prior exceeding 7% NI Power.
(BOP-N) (SRO-N) CT CT Justification:
Safety significance - Prevent unnecessary reactor trip Initiating Cue - A MFW Pump in service feeding steam generators.
Measurable Performance Standard - Reactor does not trip on Loss of Feedwater when power is raised above 7%.
Performance Feedback - Light indication on the A MFWP contact buffer will have the top red light ON, bottom red light OFF for the A RPS Channel. Due to space restraints Channels B-D are not mimicked like the plant, for the other three channels the white TRIPPED light for the A MFWP goes dim on the contact monitors when ARTS is reset. Inform the applicant that another operator will reset the channels. A trigger is set up to reset the additional channels.
Event Three: Raise power to 10%
When ARTS is reset, the SRO will then direct that plant power will be raised to ~10% power.
(ATC-R) (SRO-R)
Event Four: Group 7 Rods do not sequence on resulting in no overlap between Groups 6 & 7 As reactor power is raised, a failure of the group 7 Control Rod Sequencing circuit will result in group 7 Control Rods not withdrawing when group 6 Control Rods are between 75% and 85%.
This should be recognized by the ATC and/or BOP and the SRO should be notified. The SRO should direct that rod withdrawal be stopped and then reference Tech Specs.
(ATC-C) (BOP-C) (SRO-C)TS Event Five: S/U #2 failure After the TS entry has been declared to the crew, K02-B3, SU2 L.O. Relay Trip, will annunciate.
The BOP will perform actions from the ACA while the SRO assesses TS.
C-(SRO) TS, ACA Event Six: L/D Cooler Leak After the TS entry has been declared to the crew, a 75 gpm Letdown Cooler leak will develop.
This will be identified by a rising ICW Temperature and alarm on K12-E4. It is possible that K10-A1 Letdown Temperature Hi will also alarm. With the given alarms the crew will diagnose a Letdown cooler leak into the Nuclear ICW System. The SRO will direct the crew from OP-1203.039, Excess RCS Leakage.
(ATC-C) (BOP-C) (SRO-C) TS, AOP
Appendix D Scenario Outline Page 4 of 5 Event Seven: Loss of Offsite Power Once the leaking Letdown Cooler is isolated, a Loss of Offsite Power will occur and the SRO will direct actions from OP-1202.007, Degraded Power. If asked, Unit 2 will report that the Alternate AC Diesel Generator is not available due to governor control issues and maintenance has been contacted for investigation.
(ATC-C) (BOP-C) (SRO-C) EOP Event Eight: #1 EDG fails to start During verification of RT-21, Check EDG Operation, the BOP will identify that the #1 EDG failed to start automatically and he will start the associated EDG from C10. In addition to the failure of the #1 EDG, the Service Water Pump, P-4C which provides cooling to the #2 EDG will fail to start following restoration of power to A4. If P-4C is not started the #2 EDG will trip in ~10 minutes. The combination of the two failures makes either starting #1 EDG or starting P-4C a critical task to ensure a 4160 Volt power supply remains available to a vital bus.
(BOP-C) (SRO-C) CT CT Justification: CT-8 Safety significance -Prevent degradation of the mitigative capability of the plant Initiating Cue - Loss of Offsite Power, A3 de-energized, normal lighting in the control room off.
Measureable Performance Standard - BOP will start the #1 EDG within 15 minutes of Blackout.
EAL escalation is required if the EDG is not started within 15 minutes.
Performance Feedback - Change of status lamps on control console for #1 EDG, components on C18 and normal lighting returns for the control room.
OR CT Justification: CT-8 Safety significance -Prevent degradation of the mitigative capability of the plant Initiating Cue - Loss of Offsite Power, low Service Water Pressure, and eventually a Critical Trouble Alarm K01-C2.
Measureable Performance Standard - BOP will start P-4C before the #1 EDG trips on high temperature.
Performance Feedback - Change of status lamps on control console for P-4C Service Water Pump and Service Water Pressure rise.
The scenario can be terminated at the discretion of the lead examiner.
