PERRY INITIAL LICENSE EXAM MARCH 5 THRU 13, 2002 NRC Review Comments to facility developed written exam and operating test

Comments on PERRY Written Exam Material Question Number Comment(s)

3.

NRC:

Psychometric Flaw; one or more distractors are partially correct. Distractor "D" is also correct. A low SFP level could UNSAT1 cause the SFP surge tank level to decrease resulting in a FPCC pump trip.

LICENSEE

RESPONSE

The licensee modified distractor "D" to be clearly wrong.

4.

NRC:

Get rid of "Note." You didn't give a partial list as a possible answer.

LICENSEE

RESPONSE

The licensee agreed and deleted this from the question.

6.

NRC:

This is a MEMORY LEVEL question. The applicant is expected to know the automatic and immediate actions for annunciators, including MSL high rads.

LICENSEE

RESPONSE

The licensee agreed and changed the designation to MEMORY level.

15.

NRC:

Psychometric Flaw; distractors "B" and "C" are implausible.

UNSAT2 LICENSEE

RESPONSE

The licensee agreed and improved the distractors for plausability.

17.

NRC:

Psychometric Flaw; one or more distractors are partially correct. Distractor "B" is also correct. "Minimizing the amount UNSAT3 of water injected into the reactor vessel" REGARDLESS of the source is synonymous with "preventing flooding of the main steam lines."

LICENSEE

RESPONSE

The licensee modified distractors "B" and "D" to be clearly wrong.

Sheet 1 of 14

Comments on PERRY Written Exam Material Question Number Comment(s)

19.

NRC:

Psychometric Flaw; one or more distractors are partially correct. Distractor "C" is also correct. "continue executing PEI UNSAT4 B13" is synonymous with "re-enter PEI-B13."

LICENSEE

RESPONSE

The licensee modified distractor "C" to be clearly wrong.

21.

NRC:

Psychometric Flaw; one or more distractors are partially correct. Distractor "D" is also correct. The system isolates at a UNSAT 5 tank pressure of 9-psig. The stem states that the IA system is at 89 psig. This is too close to the set point. The valves may have not closed yet.

LICENSEE

RESPONSE

The licensee modified the stem and distractor "D" to ensure the distracor was clearly wrong.

26.

NRC:

State "half-scram" in distractors "C" and "D."

LICENSEE

RESPONSE

The licensee agreed and modified the distractors to include the term "half-scram."

27.

NRC:

Psychometric Flaw; distractors "A" and "D" are implausible. When would power decrease and period remain UNSAT 6 stable and positive? When would power rise yet period be negative?

LICENSEE

RESPONSE

The licensee modified distractors "A" and "0" to be "more plausible."

Sheet 2 of 14

Comments on PERRY Written Exam Material Question Number Comment(s)

28.

NRC:

Will reactor pressure go from 1090 to <1083 in 25 seconds or less (particularly under ATWS conditions)? If not, one or more distractors would be correct.

LICENSEE

RESPONSE

The licensee will enhance the stem to make the 20 second time frame, discussed in the stem, clear.

31.

NRC:

By giving a value of suppression pool level and temperature right on the line, the LOD is < 2.0. However, if you gave values between such that the applicant would have to "higher" or "lower" lAW the graph, that would increase LOD.

LICENSEE

RESPONSE

The licensee will enhance the question by providing values that require application of the notes on the graph to interpret.

33.

NRC:

Psychometric Flaw; one or more distractors are partially correct. Distractor "C" is also correct. The question asks for UNSAT 7 the "most effective" method. Distractors "A" and "B" would not result in rod motion thus would not be effective. The methods described in distractors "C" and "D" would cause rod motion but how would the applicant determine if "C" or "0" were the most effective?

LICENSEE

RESPONSE

The licensee modified distractor "C" to be clearly wrong.

Sheet 3 of 14

Comments on PERRY Written Exam Material Question Number Comment(s)

35.

NRC:

Psychometric Flaw; no correct answer is provided. The basis provided in the answer only applies under DBA conditions.

UNSAT 8 Since DBA conditions do not exist, the basis for LLS is simply to minimize valve cycling and prolong the life of the SRVs.

LICENSEE

RESPONSE

The licensee modified the correct answer, "A," to be based on the basis provided in the student text for LLS.

36.

NRC:

The question does not match the referenced K/A. The K/A concerns reactor low water level and the reasons for spray UNSAT 9 cooling. The question simply asks which system responds to the conditions in the stem. The applicant need only know that HPCS initiated. No knowledge of the reasons for the concept of spray cooling is required to answer the question.

LICENSEE

RESPONSE

The licensee re-wrote the question and provided it to the NRC for review. The re-written question was also unsat, in that, it was considered a memory level question concerning ECCS acceptance criteria from 10 CFR 50. The licensee again re wrote the question and was able to develop a question that met the K/A.

37.

NRC:

Psychometric Flaw; one or more distractors are partially correct. Distractors "C" is also be correct. The basis states UNSAT1Q that the temperature limits are based on "equipment qualifications." Why doesn't this include the qualifications of the cooling units?

LICENSEE

RESPONSE

The licensee modified distractor "C" to be clearly wrong.

Sheet 4 of 14

Comments on PERRY Written Exam Material Question Number Comment(s)

39.

NRC:

Psychometric Flaw; one or more distractors are partially correct. Distractor "A" is also correct. "Maintenance UNSAT11 representatives" assigned to a crew are typically also "operating representatives."

LICENSEE

RESPONSE

The licensee modified distractor "A" to be clearly wrong.

41.

NRC:

Psychometric Flaw; one or more distractors are partially correct. Distractor "C" may also be correct. Won't run out UNSAT 12 eventually lead to cavitation thus distractor "C" would also be correct.

LICENSEE

RESPONSE

The licensee included pump flow information in the stem that precludes the concept of run-out from being a possible answer.

43.

NRC:

Psychometric Flaw; one or more distractors are partially correct. Distractor "A" is also correct. Reactor pressure less UNSAT 13 than 250 psig would prevent an operator from manually opening the SRV.

LICENSEE

RESPONSE

The licensee replaced this question. The new question meets NUREG-1021 requirements.

46.

NRC:

Tech Spec basis questions are not appropriate for an RO exam. It would; however, be considered an "SRO only" UNSATI4 question.

LICENSEE

RESPONSE

The licensee decided to use this as-is on the SRO exam. The proposed replacement question for the RO exam did not meet the intent of the K/A. The replacement question meets NUREG 1021 requirements.

Modified the RO version to test at the appropriate level.

50.

UNSAT, 6 L

NRC:

LICENSEE

RESPONSE

NRC:

LICENSEE

RESPONSE

The question does not match the referenced K/A. The K/A concerns manipulation of controls. The questions tests the applicant's knowledge of a procedural limitation on rod withdrawal.

The licensee replaced this question. The proposed replacement had two correct answers. The licensee replaced it with a question from their bank. The new question meets NUREG 1021 requirements.

Not modified in accordance with NUREG-1021. In order fora question to be considered modified, lAW NUREG-1021, you must:

Change at least 1 pertinent condition in the stem; and

° Change at least 1 distractor.

OR Change the conditions in the stem such that one of the three distractors in the original question becomes the correct answer.

In this case, no pertinent condition in the stem was changed.

The licensee agreed and changed the designation to BANK.

In this case, no pertinent condition in the stem was changed.

The licensee agreed and will change the designation to BANK.

53.

NRC:

This EOP question is not appropriate for an RO exam. It would; however, be considered an "SRO only" question.

UNSAT 17 LICENSEE

RESPONSE

The licensee decided to use this as-is on the SRO exam. The replacement RO exam question meets NUREG-1021 requirements.

54.

NRC:

This Tech Spec basis question is not appropriate for an RO exam. It would; however, be considered an "SRO only" UNSAT18 question.

LICENSEE

RESPONSE

The licensee replaced this with a question that meets NUREG 1021 requirements.

56.

NRC:

This is a MEMORY LEVEL question. The applicant is expected to know the automatic response of the ATWS inverter to an undercurrent condition.

LICENSEE

RESPONSE

The licensee agreed and changed the designation to MEMORY level.

Sheet 7 of 14

Comments on PERRY Written Exam Material Question Number Comment(s)

57.

NRC:

Where does the basis for condenser over pressurization come from?

LICENSEE

RESPONSE

The licensee produced a GE "design document" that discusses this. They will incorporate this basis into the system lesson plan.

60.

NRC:

Psychometric Flaw; one or more distractors are partially correct. Distractor "D" is also correct. If the Superintendent of UNSAT 19 Plant Operations can be a licensed senior reactor operator, distractor "D" is also correct.

LICENSEE

RESPONSE

The licensee modified distractor "D" to indicate that the Plant Manger is not licensed.

64.

NRC:

Poor distractor balance. Should modify distractors "B" and "C" to remove the term "automatic."

LICENSEE

RESPONSE

The licensee agreed and removed the term "automatic."

68.

NRC:

This EOP question is not appropriate for an RO exam. It would; however, be considered an "SRO only" question.

UNSAT20 LICENSEE

RESPONSE

The licensee decided to use this as-is on the SRO exam. The licensee re-wrote the RO exam question. The licensee reworded the distractors and the question now meets NUREG 1021 requirements.

Sheet 8 of 14

Comments on PERRY WrittenExam Material Question Number Comment(s)

69.

NRC:

The question does not match the referenced K/A. The K/A concerns EOPs, high suppression pool temperature, and UNSAT21 temperature monitoring. The question test the applicant's knowledge of how CAMS works.

LICENSEE

RESPONSE

The licensee replaced this with a question from a previous NRC exam.

74(ro).

NRC:

Psychometric Flaw; one or more distractors are partially correct. Distractor "D" is also correct. Halon will coat the fuel UNSAT22 source and, via chemical reaction, prevents oxygen from reaching the fuel.

LICENSEE

RESPONSE

The licensee modified distractor "D" to be clearly wrong.

77(ro).

NRC:

This EOP question is not appropriate for an RO exam. It would; however, be considered an "SRO only" question. If the UNSAT. 3 question is really a systems fundamental question (i.e.,

knowledge of system arrangements or component elevations, etc.), we will allow it. In this case, the RO would have to know the basis of the SRV tail pipe limit and HCTL to answer the question.

LICENSEE

RESPONSE

The licensee modified the question to test a "concept" rather than requiring the memorization of EOP basis by an RO.

79(ro).

NRC:

The reference material does not state whether the EDG will start with only one air bank available or not.

LICENSEE

RESPONSE

The discussion of this concept, from TS basis, will be incorporated into the system lesson plan.

Sheet 9 of 14 on PERRY Written Exam Material Comments

Comments on PERRY Written Exam Material Question Number Comment(s) 85(ro).

NRC:

Not modified in accordance with NUREG-1 021. In order for a question to be considered modified, lAW NUREG-1021, you must:

Change at least 1 pertinent condition in the stem; and Change at least 1 distractor.

OR Change the conditions in the stem such that one of the three distractors in the original question becomes the correct answer.

In this case, no pertinent condition in the stem was changed.

LICENSEE

RESPONSE

The licensee agreed and changed the designation to BANK.

91 (ro).

NRC:

The stem asks "which of the following describes the adverse consequences of this event?" Distractors "B", "C" and "D" describe conditions that may not be adverse.

LICENSEE

RESPONSE

The licensee modified the stem so as not to cue the applicant.

99(ro).

NRC:

Psychometric Flaw; no correct answer provided. According to the reference provided and given the conditions in the stem, UNSAT24 M25-F010A remains closed and M25-FO20B remains open since train "A" was shutdown. This response is not included in the answers provided.

LICENSEE

RESPONSE

The licensee corrected the stem of the question such that there is a correct answer.

72(sro).

NRC:

This question is not considered "SRO only." You asked the same question to ROs in question 82(ro).

LICENSEE

RESPONSE

The licensee changed the designation to a "Both" question.

Sheet 10 of 14

Comments on PERRY Written Exam Material Question Number Comment(s) 73(sro).

NRC:

I'll have to see some strip chart data that clearly indicates that a high pressure scram would not also occur based on the given UNSAT 2, plant conditions.

LICENSEE

RESPONSE

The licensee ran this on the simulator and found that their original correct answer was not correct. the question was modified and is now correct but is no longer "SRO only."

80(sro).

NRC:

Psychometric Flaw; all answers partially correct. Can the Plant Manager also be assigned as the Duty Management UNSAT 26 Representative? If he/she can, "A" is also correct. Also, FTI B0002, Note 3 states that contacting the reactor engineer to obtain verbal direction for rod recovery is considered "expeditious." Therefore, distractors "C" and "D" are correct.

LICENSEE

RESPONSE

The licensee modified the stem to indicate no "Duty Management Representative" had been assigned. Also, the licensee modified distractors "C" and "D" to be clearly wrong.

83(sro).

NRC:

Psychometric Flaw; ineffective distractors. Distractors "A" and "B" are ineffective. A reasonable supervisor would not stop UNSAT27 an operator from taking mitigating actions unless their life were in danger.

LICENSEE

RESPONSE

The licensee rewrote the question. The new question meets NUREG-1021 requirements.

NRC:

This question is not be considered "SRO only." ROs are also required to know RO responsibilities for emergency plan implementation. Need to see RO responsibilities form EPI-B5 and compare them to shift supervisor responsibilities to see if there is a "significant delta."

LICENSEE

RESPONSE

The licensee changed the designation of this to a "Both" question.

Sheet 11 of 14

Comments on PERRY Written Exam Material Question Number Comment(s) 86(sro).

NRC:

This question is not considered "SRO only." ROs are also required to know SJAE system automatic responses to alarming conditions. An RO would be expected to also know that vacuum pump operation is limited to 5% reactor.

LICENSEE

RESPONSE

Although the question remains on the SRO exam, the licensee changed the designation to a "Both" question.

87(sro).

NRC:

This question is not considered "SRO only." ROs are also required to know the impact on shutdown cooling when E12 F008 closes. An RO would also be expected to know alternate means of shutdown cooling.

LICENSEE

RESPONSE

Although the question remains on the SRO exam, the licensee changed the designation to a "Both" question.

88(sro).

NRC:

The K/A concerns EOPs, high drywell pressure, and drywell pressure. The question tests the applicant's knowledge of the basis of the Tech Spec limit for containment differential pressure but the tie to EOPs is weak.

LICENSEE

RESPONSE

The licensee replaced the question with a question from their bank. No longer considered "SRO only." Also, not considered UNSAT due to having been used on a previous NRC exam.

90(sro).

NRC:

This question is not be considered "SRO only." ROs are also required to know which instruments are considered post UNSAT 28 accident monitoring instruments.

LICENSEE

RESPONSE

The licensee modified to be a "SRO only" question.

Change at least 1 pertinent condition in the stem; and Change at least 1 distractor.

OR Change the conditions in the stem such that one of the three distractors in the original question becomes the correct answer.

In this case, no pertinent condition in the stem was changed.

The licensee agreed and changed the designation to BANK.

92(sro).

NRC:

This question is not be considered "SRO only." ROs are also required to know the immediate actions in ARPs. ROs are UNSAT 29 also expected to know entry conditions into off-normal procedures.

LICENSEE RESPONSE.

Although the question remains on the SRO exam, the licensee changed the designation to a "Both" question.

93(sro).

NRC:

No basis was provided that discusses carbon buildup in the exhaust system.

LICENSEE

RESPONSE

The licensee provided a letter stating the "official station stance" on this issue and it supports the question.

Sheet 13 of 14

Comments on PERRY Written Exam Material NRC:

LICENSEE

RESPONSE

The question does not match the referenced K/A. The K/A concerns AOPs, high drywell pressure, and leak rates. The question tests the applicant's knowledge of Tech Spec entry conditions.

The licensee re-wrote the question. The new question meets NUREG-1021 requirements. Although the question remains on the SRO exam, the licensee changed the designation to a "Both" question.

98(sro)

NRC:

Distractor "B" appears implausible. Why would an operator determine that an inoperable piece of equipment was required to be operable yet think that no action was required?

LICENSEE

RESPONSE

The licensee modified distractor "D" to be "more plausible."

Comments on the PERRY Operating Exam Material JPM/Scenario Event Number Comment(s)

A..a (ro)

NRC:

The Task Standard needs to be modified to include (shift turnover) the need to identify control board errors (RCIC, pressure regulator).

LICENSEE

RESPONSE

The Task Standard was updated to reflect control board errors.

NRC:

Can this review be condensed (i.e., limit panels)?

Should shoot for no longer than 30 minutes...

LICENSEE

RESPONSE

The JPM was modified to NOT include a walk-down of the "long response" panels.

NRC:

Second Performance Step is not considered critical.

Failure to identify the problem does not appear to impact continued operation of reactor plant.

LICENSEE

RESPONSE

The step was changed to NOT be critical.

A.1.b (ro)

NRC:

The Task Standard needs to be modified to include (jet pump operability) the need to identify that the surveillance acceptance criteria was not met.

LICENSEE

RESPONSE

The Task Standard was modified to include the need for the applicant to identify that the surveillance acceptance criteria was not met.

NRC:

The Standard for Performance Step 5.3.1 should also include the need for the applicant to properly complete the surveillance package including indicating unsat results were obtained. This is how the RO makes the "operational judgement" required by the K/A.

LICENSEE

RESPONSE

The JPM was modified to require the applicant to complete the surveillance package including indicating unsat results were obtained.

A.2 (ro)

NRC:

Note 3 should state...1N27-F714B...

(tagout a pump)

LICENSEE

RESPONSE

Note 3 was modified.

A.3 (ro)

NRC:

There is no need to evaluate the applicant's response (select a rwp) to identification of personal contamination. The referenced K/A for this J PM, 2.3.1, states "knowledge UNSAT 1 of 10 CFR 20 and related facility radiation control requirements." Contamination control requirements fall under K/A 2.3.4. Also, this JPM is not discriminating (i.e., does not provide the examiner with sufficient opportunity to determine if the applicant would be a competent operator).

LICENSEE

RESPONSE

The JPM was replaced with a task requiring the applicant to review a proposed work assignment and determine if administrative dose limits would be exceeded. The replacement JPM meets NUREG 1021, Appendix C requirements and is discriminating.

A.4 (ro)

NRC:

Recommend the JPM be initiated with simulated plant (site accountability outside page informing the applicant that site accountability is control room) being established and to report tot he OSC. We can then evaluate their knowledge of 1) how to report for accountability and 2) where the OSC is located.

LICENSEE

RESPONSE

The JPM was modified as discussed above.

NRC:

Where does the "30-minute" requirement come from?

LICENSEE

RESPONSE

The 30-minute requirement did not apply and was deleted.

NRC:

Performance Step 3 should be deleted. In accordance with NUREG-1021, an administrative task can be evaluated using either a JPM or two prescripted questions. The only time the examiner would ask a follow-up question would be if they had identified a performance deficiency, per the NUREG.

LICENSEE

RESPONSE

The step was deleted.

LICENSEE

RESPONSE

See the licensee's response to NRC comments made to A.1.a (ro).

NRC:

A SRO applicant would also be expected to determine the tech spec applicability of both the RCIC and pressure regulator issues. NURGEG-1 021 requires that SROs be examined at an appropriate level commensurate with expected duties and responsibilities of the position.

LICENSEE

RESPONSE

The JPM was modified to require the applicant to determine the tech spec applicability of both the RCIC and pressure regulator issues.

Comment(s)

NRC:

So far as reactivity briefings are concerned, if the applicant needs time to review a procedure, he/she may take it. The examiner will not direct the applicant to discuss possible problems or concerns.

LICENSEE

RESPONSE

NRC:

The licensee agreed.

The applicant will be expected to announce all expected alarms.

LICENSEE

RESPONSE

NRC:

The licensee agreed.

Delete the first bullet of the third cue of step 5.3.1 Also, the fourth cue should be deleted.

LICENSEE

RESPONSE

These unnecessary cues were deleted.

B.1.b NRC:

Change K/A listed on the JPM cover sheet from (alt inject using crd pump) 295009 to 295031.

LICENSEE

RESPONSE

The listed K/A was changed.

B.1.e NRC:

Delete steps 3.6 and 3.7 from JPM.

(terminate rhr cont. spray)

LICENSEE

RESPONSE

These unnecessary steps were deleted.

UNSAT 3 L

NRC:

LICENSEE

RESPONSE

NRC:

LICENSEE

RESPONSE

The applicant's actions are not sufficient for the examiner to evaluate their understanding of how to perform an alternate boron injection.

Recommend starting the JPM at Step 5 of PEI-SPI 1.8. This would give the examiner an opportunity to evaluate the applicant's ability to:

1.

Locate and install temporary hoses;

2.

Locate and install starter cable for the ABI pump; and

3.

Valve lineups necessary to support Injection of the boron slurry into the reactor.

The JPM was modified to incorporate the above comments. The JPM meets the requirements of NUREG-1021, Appendix C.

Delete reference to 211000 from the cover sheet of the JPM.

The reference was deleted.

RESPONSE

There appears to be insufficient actions to credit this event as a component failure for the BOP.

RHR min flow valve failure was deleted.

No credit is given to the RO for a component failure.

There are no verifiable actions for the RO other than reporting conditions.

The event was replaced by a reactor power increase using recirc flow and a recirc loop "A" flow controller manual switch failure.

The RFP bearing failure would be combined with removing the RFP from service as one component failure. Since the RO will be reducing reactor power, isn't it likely that the SRO will assign the BOP to remove the RFP from service?

The event description was modified to credit the BOP with responding to the RFP "A" bearing failure and tripping of RFP. Also added was the RO's responsibility for reducing power.

The HPCS pump shaft shear and RCIC turbine trip latch failure complicate the event but would not be credited as component failures.

The licensee agreed and modified the scenario.

Scenario 2 Event 2 Event 6 NEED TO ADD AN ADDITIONAL EVENT FOR THE RO.

An APRM failure upscale was added to the scenario to ensure RO applicant's would get minimum number of competencies.

HPCS pump flow degradation event may not require the crew to take any actions aside from increased monitoring.

The event was deleted.

The failure of RPS and ARI are the basis for the ATWS. No additional credit would be given aside from actions taken to address the ATWS condition.

This event was reclassified as a MAJOR.

Need to add a NORMAL event for the BOP.

Recovering the CRD pump is a response to a component failure and would not be counted as a NORMAL.

Added a shift of the AEGT system for the BOP NORMAL event.

Based on the significance of required operator actions, need to regroup the events and assign responsibility to the appropriate operators.

The scenario was updated.

The spurious trip of the RFP and failure of the "B" FCV to runback are considered one event for the RO.

The licensee agreed and modified the scenario.

The failure of the level transmitter has no verifiable actions, no credit is given for an instrument failure.

The event was deleted.
