ANSWER J.01 (4.00) a. The anti-syphon valves prevent syphon draining of the core tank following a break of the reactor coolant inlet line (0.50).

'The convection valves permit convection cooling during periods of . no forced flow (0.50). (1.00) The anti-syphon valve's ball is forced upward to cover the syphon break during normal primary pump operation (0.75). If the

-  inlet line were to break the pressure holding the ball ball would be lost and gravity would cause the ball to drop which would
,

uncover the syphon break (0.75).

The convection valve's ball is forced upward to cover what is effectively a core bypass hole during normal primary pump operation (0.7b'. If primary coolant flow was Icst, gravity would cause the ball to drop which would uncover the core bypass hole completing a path that would allow for natural circulation (0.75).

QUESTION C.0 Facility Comment: The plugs in the cooling tower standpipe overflow must first be remove NRC Resolution: Comment is valid. No credit will be deducted if this step is included in the discussio QUESTION C.07 Facility Comment: Operators are taught to distinguish between steady (asympotic) and dynamic periods. See MITR Physics Note NRC Resolution: Comment is valid. Full credit will be given if a discussion of prompt and long term effects on reactor perio@'is included in the answer. The answer sheet will be modified to reflect this by adding "Will also accept correct

Facility Comment:

* Also, provide core cooling in event of loss of off-site power (Mode I).

NRC Resolution: Comment is not valid. Although this function is provided by keeping the coolant temp. less than boiling it could not be considered acceptable for full credit. Partial credit will be given this response for one of the two required answer QUESTION F 02(b) Facility Comment: Answer.as given is correct, but sometimes we have both a duty shift supervisor (examples, MIT Physical Plant, customer

*

relations) and a shift supervisor (reactor operation only).

So, question could be confusin NRC Resolution: Comment is valid. For this test the answer will be changed to False and for future tests the question will be changed to read "Reactor Supervisor on Duty" instead of "Duty Reactor Supervisor".

QUESTION F.03(b) Facility Comment: The Electronics Technician is currently also the Electronics Supervisor, a licensed SR KRC Resolution: t Comment is valid. For this exam the Electronics Technician l will be accepted as an acceptable substitute for Electronics ' Superviso QUESTION F.04 )

Facility Comment:

-

Question inappropriate for and RO exam. Decisions of this type would be made by the shift supervisor.

l NRC Resolution: l Comment is not valid. The question directly addresses authority limitations placed on the RO by 10CFR, it does not ask him to make the decision. However, since it would be l l reasonable to expect the RO to immediately bring such an action to the SRO for approval this will be taken into account during grading.

Comment is valid. This could be a possible consequence of not opening the breaker and will be added to the answer as an alternate acceptable answe QUE5 TION G.04 Facility Comment: Appears to be a typo. Should be "Beta" not "Alpha".

, NRC Resolution: Comment is valid. Answer will be changed to read "Beta" instead of "Alpha".

CHANGES MADE BY EXAMINER DURING THE EXAM GRADING 1. QUESTIONS C.06(c) - Added " per pump or 1800 rpm total" immediately after "900 gpa" in the answer. This will account for total secondary flo . QUESTION D.04(a) - Added "with the reactor in automatic control" to end of the answer. This will make the answer exact.

SENIOR REACTOR OPERATOR EXAMINATION JANUARY 25, 1988 Specific facility coments concerning the SRO examination, followed by the NRC resolutions, are listed in the following paragraph OVESTION H.09(a) FACILITY COMMENT: Question implies a step insertion of the regulating rod whereas in practice the regulating rod cannot be decoupled from its drive and its maximum speed of insertion would be a ramp rate at 4.25 inches per minute. Both ramp and step insertions of the regulating rod should be accepte RSM 1. ' NRC RESOLUTION: It is agreed that answers assuming ramp insertion should be accepted in addition to those assuming step insertions. The answer key is changed as follows:

 "0R For a normal insertion of ten inches, the power will begin to ramp down immediately (0.50] due to the quick response of the prompt neutrons to the ramp change in reactivity [0.50]."

t OVESTION I.02(a) FACILITY COMMENT: Answer should also be the emergency director who may be the most senior NRC-licensed member on shift if the director for operations is not l ' presen NRC RESOLUTION: l In accordance with the "MITR-II Procedure Manual Chapter #4jEmergency Plans and Procedures," paragraph 4.3.1.2.1,

- "The senior NRC-licensed staff member on shift...is responsible for i decisions and coordination of all immediate actions in an emergency..."

In light of the above procedural direction, the answer "Emergency Director" is not accepte . I 1 '

FACILITY COMMENT: The answer is not consistent with the answers from previous NRC exam The correct answer should be that the point at which maximum reconcentration occurs for a stack release is far away from the reactor where the population is concentrated, whereas the maximum concentration for a containment building release is at the containment wall where a 60 foot distance is available before normal occupancy by the general publi NRC RESOLUTION: The question is not the same as on previous NRC exams. It is much more general and, therefore, a much more general answer was expecte However, a correct detailed answer explaining why the dilution factor is more for containment than fo: stack releases is acceptable. The

* following is added as an alditional correct answer:
 "Because the point of maximum concentration for a containment release is some distance away from the point of concern (where the public has access) [0.50] whereas the point of maximum permissible concentration and point of concern are the same for stack releases (0.50).

ADD REFERENCE:

 "Emergency Plan and Procedures, PM 4.7.2.2.1."

@ESTION I.03(c) FACILITY COMMENT: Answer should be: Stack gas monitor i Stack particulate monitor l Stack area monitor Portable monitoring l < ' REFERENCE: PM 4.4.4.14 page 1 and PM 4.4.4.15 page 2 which give thejEALS for general emergencie RC RESOLUTION: , Agreed, additional answer will be added as follows: I "6.

NRC RESOLUTION: The facility comment and the examination answer are both.too limitin Reactor reentry for any valid purpose is authorized by, "The Emergency Director who is the Director of Reactor Operations or, in his absence, the Senior NRC-licensed staff member on site." Therefore, the on-Duty , Shift Supervisor could authorize reentry any time he was the Senior NRC-licensed staff member on-site (Reference - PM 4.4.4.13, "Rea~ctor ' Reentry") at whenever," the building macuation was necessitated by the buildup of Argon-41 following a loss of ventilation for routine reasons such as loss of off-site electrical power or steam," ~(Reference PM 4.3.3.3, "Authorization for Reentry.") f Also note that the Emergency Director is the Director of Reactor

- Operations but his function is carried out by the on-duty Shift Supervisor and then the on-site senior licensed member of the Reactor Operations Staff (who may be the on-duty SS) until properly relieved of this resporsibility by the Director of Reactor Operations, (Reference PM 4.3.2.1, "Emergency Director.")
