1 Pt After a loss of all AC power (station blackout), ES 0.2 (Natural Circulation
Cooldown) is implemented after AC power has been restored.
Given the following conditions:
1) NC pumps cannot be restarted.
2) Power has been restored to all station AC busses.
3) A natural circulation cooldown is in progress.
Step 18 of ES 0.2 requires that the operators maintain subcooling greater than 50
degrees if ali CRD fans are running and greater than 100 degrees if less than all
CRD fans are running using core exit thermocouples.
What is the EOP basis for these limits?
A. To prevent degradation of reactor coolant pump seals due to steam.
B. To prevent possible void formation in the upper head.
C. To collapse any voids formed in the CRD housings.
D. To ensure adequate subcooling due to possible degradation of core
exit T/Cs accuracy.

1 Pt Given the following conditions:
Unit 1 has experienced a large break LOCA
30 minutes have elapsed since the LOCA
FWST Lo Lo level annunciator has just alarmed
Which one (1) of the following describes the operator actions for the alignment of
the containment spray system after a LOCA?
A Reset Containment Spray and Phase B and stop NS pumps within 45
seconds and manually swap the pump alignment to take suction on
the containment sump.
B. Reset Containment Spray and the NS pumps will automatically swap
over to take a suction on the containment sump when FWST level
reaches 33.
C. Reset Containment Spray and Phase B and stop the NS pumps
within 45 seconds when FWST level reaches 33 and initiate
containment spray flow from the ND system.
D. Reset Containment Spray and stop the NS pumps within 45 seconds
when FWST level reaches 33 and manually swap the pump
alignment to take suction on the containment sump.

1 Pt. A large break LOCA is in progress and the operators are responding in
FR-Z.l (Response to High Containment Pressure). Given the following
conditions:
ND pump 1A is tagged out of service for maintenance.
Containment pressure is 14 psig.
FWST level reaches the swap-over setpoint.
When shifting to cold leg recirc using ES-1.3 (Transfer to Cold Leg Recirc),
valve INI-184B (RB Sump to Train 1B ND & NS) fails to open. The
operators implement ECA-1.I(Loss of Emergency Coolant Recirculation).
FR-Z.l (Response to High Containment Pressure) requires both NS Dumps
to be in operation. ECA-1.1 limits the operators to only one NS Dump in
step 6. Which of these two procedures takes priority under these
conditions and what is the basis for this requirement?
k FR-2.1 takes priority because a total loss of ND causes the NS
system to become relatively more important to reduce
containment pressure.
6. FR-2.1 takes priority because it was implemented in response
to a red path and FRPs always have priority over ECA
procedures.
C. ECA-1.1 takes priority because it conserves FWST water level
as long as possible for injection while providing sufficient NS
flow to mitigate containment pressure.
D. ECA-1.Itakes priority because ECA procedures always have
priority over FRPs.

actuated inside the cable spreading area and what are the hazards to
personnel if they enter this room?
A. An NLO is dispatched to open a manual deluge valve. An
electrical shock hazard exists due to the use of water to
combat an electrical fire.
B. An NLO is dispatched to verify automatic sprinkler system
actuation. An electrical shock hazard exists due to the use of
water to combat an electrical fire.
C. An NLO is dispatched to verify automatic Halon system
actuation. An asphyxiation hazard exists due to the presence
of Halon gas.
D. An NLO is dispatched to actuate a manual Cardox system. An
asphyxiation hazard exists due to the presence of carbon

1 Pt Unit 1 was operating at 100% power when a total loss of feedwater
occurred. The operators reached Step 7 of FR-H.l (Response to Loss of
Secondary Heat Sink), which attempts to establish CA flow to at least one
S/G. Sub-step 7.k states:
Maintain feed flow rate less than o r equal to 100
GPM until S/G WR level is greater than 12% (17%
ACC).
Given the following conditions:
Loop A Loop B LOORC Loov D
S/G (WR) [%] @ 15 9 10
NC THO, [F] 150 555 530 545
Containment pressure is 3.4 psig
The TD CA pump is available to feed the SlGs
Which one of the following statements correctly describes the bases for the
restrictions for restoring feedwater flow following feed and bleed in FR-H.1?
k Restore flow to the ASIG because loop A T-hot is the lowest
of the loops and this will reduce the chance of thermal
shocking the SIG. Flow should not be restored to the Band
C SIGs because they will be reserved for use later to provide
a steam supply for the TD CA pump.
B. Restore flow to the B SIG because B SIG level is the highest
and this will reduce the chance of thermal shocking the SIG.
Flow should be preferentially restored to the B or C SIG to
maintain the TD CA pump steam supply.
C. Restore flow to the C SIG because loop C T-hot is less than
loop BT-hot and this will reduce the chance of thermal
shocking the SIG. Flow should be preferentially restored to
the Bor C SIG to maintain the TD CA pump steam supply.
D. Restore flow to the D SIG because the DSIG is higher than
ASIG level, which will reduce the risk of thermal shock. Flow
should not be restored to the B and C SIGs because they
will be reserved for use later to provide a steam supply for the
TD CA pump.

A. The safeguards systems are designed assuming that the only
heat being added to the NC system is decay heat and NC pump
heat. If the reactor will not trip, then the rods are manually
inserted to lower reactor power. For an ATWS event with a

prevent challenging the PZR PORVs.

heat being added to the NC system is decay heat and NC pump
heat. If the reactor will not trip, then the rods are manually

maintain SIG inventory.
C. The safeguards systems are designed assuming that the only
heat being added to the NC system is from less than 5%
power. If the reactor will not trip, then the rods are manually
inserted to lower reactor power to less than 5%. For an ATWS
event with a loss of normal feedwater, a Turbine trip within 30
seconds will maintain SIG inventory.
D. The safeguards systems are designed assuming that the only
heat being added to the NC system is from less than 5%
power. If the reactor will not trip, then the rods are manually
inserted to lower reactor power to less than 5%. For an ATWS
event with a loss of normal feedwater, a Turbine trip within 30
seconds will prevent challenging the PZR PORVs

accomplished?
k During the Injection phase by providing a spray of cold and
subcooled borated water from the FWST into the upper
containment volume.
B. During the Injection phase by providing a spray of water with
an alkaline pH from the containment sump into the upper
containment volume.
C. During the Recirculation phase by providing a spray of cold
and subcooled borated water from the FWST into the upper
containment volume.
D. During the Recirculation phase by providing a spray of water
with an alkaline pH from the containment sump into the upper
containment volume.

KC Pump discharge pressure increases
NC temperature decreases
Main Steam pressure decreases
1 Pt. Given the following conditions on Unit 1:
ORANGE Path on Core Cooling
RED Path on Heat Sink
Which one of the following describes why Red path on Heat Sink is
addressed prior to the Orange Path on Core Cooling?
A A Red path indicates the CSF is under challenge and
prompt operator action is required.
B. A Red path indicates the CSF is not satisfied and operator
action may be taken.
C. Heat Sink has a hiaher priority than Core Cooling due to
position on status trees.
D. A Red path indicates the CSF is under extreme challenge and
immediate operator action is required.

Which one of the following statements correctly describes the effect on this
Liquid Waste Release (LWR)?

C. lEMF-44 will alarm Trip 1 and Trip 2 terminating the release.
The Trip 2 alarm may be reset only one time, if no further
alarms are received. The LWR may proceed provided that
station RP performs an analysis of grab samples for
radioactivity at a lower limit of detection.
D. Nothing, there is no effect on this LWR. The LWR may proceed
provided that station RP performs an analysis of grab samples
for radioactivity at a tower limit of detection.
