This concern resolved by eliminating part 2 of the answer key for this question and adding y to each of the answers in part ' ATTACHMENT 3 R0 EXAMINATION COMMENTS AND RESOLUTIONS Question / Answer Comment ,

1.03 a Comment that 10 cycles may produce a slight difference is not accepted since the referenced training material clear-ly states "...no noticeable change over design life."

1.04 a, b, c Comment that use of the proper term Shutdown Margin will key candidates to include a stuck rod is not accepted since the question specifically ex-cludes consideration of a stuck rod.

1.06 a, b A discussion of MTC effects during these accidents is sufficient for full credit since the Doppler effect is relatively very small.

1.06 c Comment that discussion of DOPC is not necessary to fully answer the question is not accepted since this is the only power turning reactivity effect given the conditions set by the question.

1.07 a Answers based on the Technical Specification for Reactor Safety Limits will be accepted as they are equivalent in content to the referenced training material.

2.01 a Corrosion is not required for full credit since the PRT is stainless '

steel. Referenced training material is inconsistent on this point.

2.04 555 gpm is the correct setpoint for RH3 pumps as per LSK 27-7E, PLS page 74. Training material is not current.

2.06 a Time delay of 200 and 210 seconds is correct instead of five minutes, as per Emergency Generator Loading Se-quence Fig. Item 4 is deleted from l

Training material is not curren .01 b Will accept " defeats input to over-power Rod stop" for full credit since this is a correct answer the way the question is worde .02 Will accept " output" as a label for the vertical axi i l

l 3.05 a CAF = 15 psia and Hi-3 is also 25 psia. -

3.06 The 97.75% trip has been removed. An-swer changed as per revised Reactor Trips table of Topic 1, Lesson 2 which was not current when provided to NRC examiner .07 a Will accept " excessive Kw/ft" as an alternate answe .08 c Question was changed during the exam-ination to delete "Auctioneered high Tave... matched." Correct answer is now " rods nove out due to Tave/ Tref deviation."

4.03 b, c Answer key will allow for tripping the reactor on high VCT temperature in accordance with A0P 3561 page .04 b Due to confusion caused by question wording, will accept shutdown param-eters taken from LSK 24-9.3 .04 c " Generator Differential" added to answer as per LSK 24-9.3 In addition to the above, the following errors were discovered in the answer key after grading commenced:

4 Question / Answer Comments

- 1.04 b, c Mathematics' error correcte ~ 1.09 1050 psia should have been 1080 psia (typo)

= 2.01 Due to question wording, safeties and i reliefs are also correct respons '05

. Correct value is 375 psig as per PLS pg. 52 2.09 Additional correct answer is " Seal water heat exchanger / excess letdown -

normal flow path," as per Topic 2 Lesson 1 Figure CV- .03 Add " blocked when steamline SI is not blocked" as per Main Steam System pg. 2 .11'- A 250 mrem /qtr neutron exposure limit exists as per SHP 4902 pp. 10-11 which becomes more limiting than the beta-gamma limit in the answer ke ,

. 4 SENIOR REACTOR OPERATOR EXAM COMMENTS AND RESOLUTIONS

. Question / Answer Comment 5.01 b Answer key too specific for required

answers. A broader range should be allowed. Will be considered during gradin .03 a Answer key states: "With very short lifetime," "with very long...". Util-ity feels these may be implied rather than stated. Will be considered during gradin .03 c- Concern that students may use an al-ternate method for proving the 1/3 dpm SUR. Alternate methods will be con-

sidered during gradin .04 a Concern that the first 1.0 points in the answer key were not directly asked

~

for. Answer key changed to that re-quired by the questio .04 b Concern that an acceptable alternative for "photoneutron reaction" and "spon-taneous fission" should be the equa-tions. Equations are sufficient for full credi .05 a Concern that full credit should be given for writing the equations. This concern was resolved as follows for parts 1, 2, 3.

1) must include some discussion as to how OH affects p ) equation adequate for full credit and second half of answer key, "this is restricted to use on startups..."

was eliminate ) equation adequate for full credi .06 a Concern that reasonable value for Beff should be allowed. Other acceptable values will be considered during grading.

5.07 b Answer key should not include the words: " causing excessive wear," since it was not asked for in the questio This concern resolved by eliminating the words from the answer ke .08 Concern that many variables may occur in the answers given by examinees which are not stated in the questio For example, turbine load may decrease with stage pressure feedback not used by MP3. Will consider other assumptions during gradin .09 a, b, c Same comment and resolution as R0 1.0 .01 b Concern that the words "due to the high $ setpoints lowered" should not be required for full credit. This concern resolved by removing those words from the answer key and substi-tuting "due to the limited relieving capacity of the code safeties," in accordance with the basis for Tech Spec 3.7. .04 a Concern that the significance in this question is that an abnormal condition exists for temperature, not that the design discharge capability is affect-ed. This concern resolved as follows:

!- the words, "so the tank is capable of l handling the design discharge" were

! removed from the required answe Also concerned that the words, " cool l the tank" should be acceptable for full credit for second part of this ques-l tio Remainder of answer was not

6.07 Concern that answers under OPAT should all be "No change" since AI input to OPAT is set to 0 at MP3. This concern resolved by changing answer key as per Tech Spec Table 2.2.- Concern that OTAT will decrease. (if anything) because of the way AI input is used by OTAT circuitry. This con-cern resolved by changing answer key

, as per Tech Spec Table 2.2- .08 a- Concern that proper names for annunci-ator tiles should not be required and that other possible indications should ,

be allowed. Will be considered during gradin .09 b Listing the five entry conditions from AOP 3566 is acceptable for full credi .02 b Concern that other acceptable answers will be allowed. Will be considered during gradin .02 c Same comment and resolution as 7.02 .04 c Concern that some examinees may approach question from the point that they are at the ASP and list lights and indications seen there. Will accept either the answers in the key l or an explanation of lights and indi-cators at the ASP.

7.06 a Concern that word, " manually" should be eliminated from answer key. This concern resolved by deleting the word from the answer key since it was not i asked for in the questio .06 b Concern that, " shift to CST" is the only part of the answer necessary for full credit. The rest of the answer was not olicited by the question and was delete .02 Concern that Part 2 of the answer should not be included in the ke Part 2 was not elicited by the l

7 8.03 Concern that certain amount of lati-tude should be allowed on numbers to fill in the blanks. Also concerned that answer key is too specific for basis on the pressure and temperatur Will be considered during gradin .07 Concern that acceptable answers should be "#3" or "none." Due to poor wording within ACP-QA-2.02C either "#3" or

"none" will be accepted as a correct answe .09 b Concern that Part b.2 of the answer key is not asked for by the stem question and should, therefore, be eliminate This concern resolved by eliminating part 2 of the answer key for this
