Due to the proximity of the responses to the many actual values or "thumbrules" the question will be delete Question 1.08 Facility Comment:

The solution requires the candidate to assume an initial Keff in order to calculate the reactivity additions. We request that d., not enough data given, also be accepted for full credi NRC Resolution:

If any Keff of less than 1 assumed initially the correct answer can be obtained using either "thumbrules" or equations, given on equation sheet. No change to answer ke Question 1.10 a and b Facility Comment:

Part a: Since time of core cycle will affect core axial flux profile and the concentration of fission product poisons, both of which will affect differential rod worth, we request that 4., Time of Core Cycle, also be accepted for full credi Part b: The question does not solicit an explanation.

Question 1.11b Facility Comment:

Since the question did not describe the rate of temperature increase as linear,

'

this question could also be TRUE. The equation needed for the solution (i.e.,

heat flux as a furiction of T y -T is not provided on the equation sheet anditscomplexityisbeyondfNscoh8tof knowledge required by the Reactor Operator position. We request this question be deleted or both TRUE and FALSE be accepted for full credi NRC Resolution:

Knowledge of the boiling water curve is all that is necessary to answer this questio It is agreed that the question could have been stated clearer; therefore, since both answers could conceivably be correct, the question will be delete Question 1.14 Facility Comment:

The answer as keyed neglects mechanical moisture removal in the MS There is, essentially, no latent heat added to the steam leaving the moisture separator.

Assuming then that the enthalpy change is due to superheating only, a. 85 BTU /

l lbm should also be accepted for full credit. The equations needed to solve this problem as keyed were not provided on the equation sheet which is in conflict with ES 2-2-E GENERAL GUIDANCE POINT 22 of NUREG 1021. We request that on future examinations, all required equations be given for calculations of this type either in the body of the question or on the equation shee NRC Resolution:

This question tests knowledge and use of the Steam Tables and Moller diagram, no equations are required. Use of Steam Tables is covered in ES-202 Section B.1 of NUREG 1021.

L The wording of the answer key is a direct quote from the training article (PGS-2A pg 25), however, if the response of the candidates mentions

" heating caused by friction of turbine blading moving-inside the casing",

full credit will be give Question 2.09b Facility Comment:

The question asks for the (one) feature. Since there are two features which are lost, we request that either one be awarded full credi NRC Resolution:

Agree, answer key changed to accept either feature for full credi Question 2.10b -

Facility Comment:

PGS-10 page 6 states that the Feedwater Isolation Signal causes Trip of Main Feed Pump . Closure of Feed Regulating Valve . Closure of Feed Line Isolation Valve PGS-10 page 37 does not list FW Isolation as a trip, but lists Reactor Trip las a FW Pump Tri The main feedpump trip is actually the result of the reactor trip (see attached DWG OP-1-98101-3 and OP-1-98211-6). Since the MFP trip is not a result of the Feedwater Isolation but will " occur with" a FWI (from reactor trip and low TAVE)

and the question asked for "three", we request that full credit be awarded whether the response includes " Trip of Main Feedpump" or no NRC Resolution:

Upon review of OP-1-98101-3, OP-1-982'l-6(c-4), and OP-1-98508-1(G-3), it was proved that the Main Feedpumps are tripped by Safety Injection or Steam Generator H -H, water level signals. These are two of the Feedwater Isolation signals. Tberefore,"tripofthemainfendpumps"willremainasarequired respons In addition drawing OP-1-98508-1(g-3) also lists turbine trip as a result of the same signals listed above, therefore, " turbine trip" will also be accepted as a proper respons ,

SECTION 3 Question 3.01 Facility Comment:

For a rapid PT-505 failure, rod motion is generated by both power mismatch and the large deviation between Tref (generated by PT-505) and auctioneered high Tav The answer assumes that the rods will overshoot the no load Tavg setpoint. If this assumption is not made, the remaining 0.75 points of the answer will not be provide We request that the answer be modified to include both reasons for initial rod insertion and that the discussion of why rod motion doesn't occur after a T no-load overshoot not be required for full credi NRC Resolution:

Agree, the fact that rods moving out is not solicited in the question and will not be counted for credit, however, since rods will drive in for approylmately 200 sec. at a decreasing rate, there will be a temperature overshoot and C-5 will be active and rods will not drive out. If mention is made that rods will drive out a .25 will be added to the grade, however, no deduction will be made if C-5 is not mentione Question 3.04 Facility Comment

The possibility exists that a candidate may arrive at a different answer from the key because Rx Makeup control is normally in " manual." If is is assumed that VCT low low level is reached early in the sequence of events, a refueling water sequence (swapover to RWST suction) may occur. This would result in pressurizer low pressure or OTAT tri The Technical Specification minimum value for the high level trip setpoint is 92%, the actual trip setpoint is slightly less, at 91%.

We request that the answer key be modified to reflect a setpoint alternative and that an alternate reactor trip scenario be accepted for full credit if additional correct assumptions are mad NRC Resolution:

A setpoint of 91% will be accepted for full credit. If it is stated by the candidate that makeup control is in manual, full credit will be given for mentioning RWST swapover sequence, however, the boron addition will not be sufficient to lower temperature and the pressure (which will be held up by pressurizer heaters) to the point of a reactor trip before pressurizer level

,

increases to the trip setpoint.

Question 3.05 Facility Comment:

The answer requires both P-10 and P-13 in addition to P-7 for those trips that are unblocked by P-7 permissive. The question does not elicit the permissives that are used in the generation of the P-7 signal. The referenced plant drawing shows only P-7 as the permissive interlocked with the reactor trips of concer We request that P-7 be a sufficient answer for full credit and that P-10 and P-13 be placed in parenthesis for the following trips:

-

Pressurizer low pressur Pressurizer high leve Turbine tri loop loss of RCS flow (UV, UF, flow, and breaker position).

NRC Resolution

Will accept P-7 as the answer for full credi P-10 and P-13 will be placed in parenthesis and will not affect the grad Question 3.07a, b, c Facility Comment: The PORVs will open together at approximately 2335 psig. For all of the PORVs, an interlock pressure of 2335 psig increasing and a set pressure of 2335 psig must be present, in addition tn the selector switch in "AUT0",

for the valve to open. The interlock pressures are not rate sensitiv (Refer to referenced drawing.)

We recommend that the answer key be changed to indicate that the valves will open together at approximately 2335 psi A single pressure channel failing high would not result in any PORV opening. The " interlock" channel would also have to fail high to unblock its respective PORV(s). (Refer to referenced drawing.)

We recommend that the answer key be changed to indicate that a single channel failure will not result in PORV openin With channels 1-2 selected (switch position #2), no PORV actuation will occur (as previously discussed in parts "a" and "b"). Heater and spray operation are only affected by pressure channel 1 in this position. The only action to occur would be that of indication and the respective annunciator alarm l

troubleshooting on energized or pressurized systems may be conducted without ,

a clearance, provided it is performed in accordance with PMI-2290 (Job Orders)

or an approved plant procedure, and so long as there is no personnel or equipment hazard involved." While the exam item quotes the first phrase of this sentence and may be assumed to be true if the reader infers that the conditions expressed in the deleted qualifying clause have been satisfied, the statement is not entirely true as it stands.

The question was designed to elicit characteristics of subcritical multiplica-tion in regards to reactor theory. Choice "a" is not a characteristic of subcritical multiplication but of installed source decay and instrument sensitivit Choice "a" will not be accepte _ Question Comment:

The doppler coefficient becomes more negative over core life due to the buildup of resonant absorbers (Pu-240). Clad creep affects doppler defect by reducing the 0 to 100% fuel temperature rise but the doppler coefficient (pcm/ F) is not affected by clad creep. We request this question be deleted as there is no correct response in the list of choices provide Examiner's Comment:

The examiner accepts the premise presented by the utility; however, the question did solicit the Doppler defect vice the Doppler coefficient. The question was editorially corrected prior to the administration of the exam to the Doppler defect which reflects the correct answer of clad creep. The copy of the question given to utility at exam review did not reflect the updated revision to the Coppler defec Question 5.12 Comment:

The keyed answer requires the examinee to assume that the cause of the dropped rod also resulted in a "possible" urgent failure.

i Because the assumption is that a failure of a control or instrument circuit is preventing rod withdrawal, we request that any one rod stop condition listed  ;

below or a general statement of a possible rod stop be accepted for full credit. OPAT, OTAT, rod uregent failure, PRNIS overpowe Examiner's Comment

Alternative answers are acceptabl Question 6.16 Comment: The wording of the question is distractive in that the pressure transducers associated with CTS and Phase B Containment Isolation are known as " Lower Containment" pressure instruments. An additional three instruments measure upper containment pressure which do not affect any safety system actuctions. We request that this be considered while grading the questio . The keyed answer contained about four defenses of the "No" answe We request that only one defense be required for full credi Examiner's Comment:

The answer says that the Shift Supervisor must obtain permission from the SRO-C Plant Manager Instruction (PMI-4050) states that the SRO-CA is responsible to the Plant Manager for refueling operations and 1 Paragraph 3.6.2.8 states that he will authorize bypassing any crane interlocks. The Refueling Shift Supervisor referred to by the reference

Alternative answer is acceptabl Question 7.04 Comment:

The answer key does not recognize that there are normally two "N" train battery chargers available for the "N" train battery. If the candidate assumes that the second charger is not available/ inoperable, then the answer l key is correct. If the other charger is assumed to be operable, then the AFWP would also be operable, and no action would be required per Technical Specification We request that either of the two possible answers be given credit based on the assumption made by the candidat Reference: DWG # OP-2-98210- Examiner's Comment:

The facility provided additional information not available prior to the examination and is acceptable.

Question 7.13

'

Comment:

The procedure (OHP 4023.001.002) states four conditions that it will assist in diagnosing. These conditions are listed as the four answers in the answer ke " Spurious Actuation of Safety Injection" is not an emergency procedure but

'

rather is a part of procedure OHP 4023.001.002 (Section 5.8 on page 5 of 5).

I We request that answer No. 1, Spurious Actuation of Safety Injection, not be required for full credit and that the answer key be modified to more closely parallel the actual procedure titles as follows:

!

(1) Loss of Reactor Coolan (2) Steam Line Brea (3) Steam generator Tube Ruptur Reference: OHP 4023.001, pages 1 and 5.

Comment:

The referenced procedure lists the following immediate manual actions:

(1) Reduce load if necessar (2) Check proper operation of steam seal syste (3) Check proper operations of air ejector (4) Insure adequate circulating water flo (5) Insure proper venting of condenser water boxe (6) Check vacuum breaker position and proper seal water.

f We request that the answer key be modified to more closely follow the referenced procedur '

SECTION 8 i

Question 8.12 Comment:

There has been a very recent change to PMI-2210 " CLEARANCE PERMIT SYSTEM" which impacts this situation. Procedure Change Sheet #3 to PMI-2110 was placed in effect on Friday, July 12th (2 working days prior to the exam date). This change was instituted as a result of NRC Generic Letter 84-15 which addresses Diesel Generator Reliability and established an objective to reduce the number of cold fast star LER 50-316/78-037 commitment referenced in the keyed answer has been rescinded via revised LER dated May 15 with a proposed affective date of June 30. Attachment 1 of PMI-2110 now states that if an EDG is to be taken out of service, the other must be proven operable per

-

Technical Specification requirements. As Technical Specifications do not require the other diesel generator to be proven operable prior to removing the affected EDG from service, PMI-2110 does not now require any prior action ! Therefore, we are requesting that you accept either "no prior requirememts" (follow applicable Technical Specification action statement for subsequent actions) or the keyed answer as correc , Examiner's Comment:

The alternative answer is acceptabl Question 8.18 Comment:

(a) We request that you change your answer to reference T.S 3.4. Overpressure Protection Systems applicability statement: "When the temperature of one or more RCS cold legs is less than or equal to (Unit 1: 188 F, Unit 2: 152 F), except when the reactor vessel head is removed." We also request that you accept the temperature associated with either uni (b) In addition to the keyed answers, we request that you include as correct responses:

. PORV must time open in < 10 seconds. (Reference: 1-0HP 4021.001.004

" Plant Cooldown form Hot Standby to Cold Shutdown" Step 6.2.7.1.)

c Question 8.19 Comment:

The keyed answer to c categorizes a body leak on QRV-301, the low pressure letdown valve, as pressure boundary leakag Referencing the Definitions section of Technical Specifications, " PRESSURE BOUNDARY LEAKAGE shall be leakage (except steam generator tube leakage)

through a non-isolable fault in a Reactor Coolant System component body, pipe wall or vessel wall".

A QRV-301 body leak would not qualify as pressure boundary leakage because it is not a Reactor Coolant System Component and its ability to be isolate As a minimum, 2 containment isolation valves exist in the letdown flowpath upstream of QRV-30 Since the Reactor Coolant leakage criteria does not apply to QRV-301, we request that item c be deleted or both "not applicable" or "10 gpm" (since the leak location is known) be accepted for full credi Examiner's Comments:

10 gmp will be accepted for full credi Question 8.20 Comment:

The D.C. Cook Unit 1 and Unit 2 Technical Specification basis for the Reactor Core Safety Limit (2.1.1) reads as follows: "The curves of Figures 2.1-1 show the loci of points of THERMAL POWER, Reactor Coolant System pressure and average temperature:

. Unit 1: For which the minimum DNBR is no less than the applicable design DNBR limit, or the average enthalpy at the vessel exit is equal to the enthalpy of saturated liqui . Unit 2: Below which the calculated DNBR is no less than the correlation DNBR limit value or the average enthalpy at the vassel exit is less than the enthalpy of saturated liqui We therefore request for part (b) that you accept " ACTUAL DNBR > DESIGN DNBR" as a correct response so as to reflect the D.C. Cook Reactor Core Safety Limit design basis wordin Examiner's Comment:

Alternative answer is acceptable.

4 If the reactor is shutdown long enough, the source range instruments will lose their ability to determine the subcritical multiplication level even though the core may still be at FOL.

Doubling the indicated count rate by reactivity additions will reduce the margin to critical by approximately one hal For equal reactivity additiens, it takes longer for the equilibrium subcritical multiplication level to be reached as Keff approaches unity.
If ten steps of rod withdrawal increases the subcritical

, multiplication level by 10 cps, then twenty steps of rod l withdrawal will increase the subtritical multiplication

5.13 Although the saturation tenperature of the steam exiting the steam generators decreases slightly as power increases, the temperatures of the feedwater increases with power because of the improved

' effectiveness of the low and high pressure feedwater heaters. Since-feedwater temperature increases, the enthalpy change across the steam generator decrcases with powe Q s/g = M (h2-hy )

5.14 T-average initially decreases due to increased heat removal through S/G's to heat FW. Rod control system will eventually react to the delta - T signal (if significant enough) to raise T-average back to its initial level, Reactor power will initially increase due to MTC. The rod control system may initially insert rods due to an unnecessary mismatch between nuclear and turbine power. The power level will reach equilibrium at a value slightly higher than the initial power level to overcome the added effect of feedwater heatin The decrease in T-average will cause the RCS fluid to contract, lowering the pressurizer level. The CVCS will react to lowering changes which will cause VCT level to decrease. When T-average subsequently increases, charging will reduce and the VCT level will return to its initial leve Reference: 004-000-K1.02 (3.8) .

5.15 Dilution will cause rods to insert pushing flux towards bottom core. Top half of core: Flux decreases, Xenon increases as burnout decreases. As iodine decreases, Xenon will start to decay to lower flux equilibrium level and neutron flux will start to increase. As flux increases, Xenon will again build and push flux towards bottom or core; causing cycle to repeat. Bottom half of core: Increased flux.will cause Xenon to burn out further increasing flux. As increased flux burns out Xenon, flux will migrate towards top of

~

core reducing burnout and causing Xenon to increase. Xenon continues to increase until iodine from previous high power level is a decayed. Xenon will decrease causing flux to increase and repeat cycle, Observe history of Delta-I swing and initiates insertion before reaching positive Delta-I peak. Maintain inserted position until Delta-I drops below target band and then withdraw rods.
