August 16,2004 NMP#1 OUTLINE COMMENTS Overall, the outlines received from the licensee on August 1 3th appeared to meet expectations with one exception there were no low power scenarios proposed ES-301, D.4.b (04%

proposed). Comments provided on May 16* per telecom to the licensee.

Written Exam Some general feedback or cautions were provided. Some of these topics may still result in acceptable exam questions depending on exam developers ingenuity.

0 0

0 0

0 0

0 A number of proposed WAS appeared to be testing set points which tend to be overly simplistic non-discriminating (29501 9, 295037, 207000).

Some topics appeared to be generally simplistic and may not discriminate (29501 2)

Several topics involved alarm response which is generally better examined during the dynamic scenarios (295008,218000,295002,201 001).

Several topics appeared to test simple power supplies which may be acceptable in limited numbers (206000).

Ability to manually operate and/or monitor valves in the CR may be better examined during the dynamic scenarios or JPMs (259001).

For TS SRO questions make sure not direct look-up - make integrated TS calls which are better for an SRO for ROs okay to ask more direct simple TS (295013).

Several SRO maybe just testing system knowledge (295004,295028).

Operatina Exam (Draft In-house Comments)

JPMs - Admin, Simulator, and Plant JPM topics appeared to be acceptable. One RO topic on applying yellow and red stickers on equipment in the CR may be acceptable but will it be overly simplistic and tie up too much time in the Simulator?

0 Also asked how many of the Admin. JPM topics are new. Dave W. stated all proposed scenarios are new?

Scenarios 0

0 0

No low power scenarios were proposed.

Good idea to have extra malfunctions beyond minimum just in case another applicant is aggressive and hogs the show.

Make sure CTs are well scripted and comply with APP. D guidance.

Page 2 August 12,2004 NMP-97990 Please withhold this examination material from public disclosure until after the examinations have been completed.

Nine Mile Point Nuclear Station has used the methodology outlined in ES-401 Attachment 1 "Example Systematic Sampling Methodology." The written examination outlines for the Nine Mile Point Unit 1 RO and SRO examinations and the topics were randomly generated using the method described in ES-401, Attachment 1. These outlines were then saved with password protection on a non-networked computer.

If you have any questions regarding this examination outline submittal, please contact Gregg Pitts (General Supervisor Operations Training) at 3 15-349-1864 or Michael Jaquin (Initial Training Supervisor) at 3 15-349-1 508.

The crew will rem"oe RRPI 5 from service and take appropriate actions including those actions to support 4-loop operation. When reactor power is between 45% and 90% the thermal limit penalty must be applied because no backup pressure regulator is available.

ARP F2-2-5, Nl-Of-I; F.4;H.2; H.3, The crew will be required to lower reactor power to support removal of RRP15 from service. When manual control of RRP15 is established, recirc flow control reduction by the BOP must be coordinated with the RO.

When the actions for the loss of PB16A and reduced drywell cooling are taken, a gradually increasing LOCA will occur.

The crew must enter EOP-2, EOP-4, and eventually EOP-8.

During and after the blowdown the crew must maintain RPV water level using high pressure and low pressure systems.

N1-EOP-I; Att. 4 and 16, Nl-EOP-2, Nl-EOP-4, After containment sprays are placed into service, containment spray pump 11 1 trips requiring that the other available containment spray pump be placed into service (Containment Spray Pump 112 is removed from service and not available). With insufficient containment spray available for the size of the break both the drywell design temperature and Pressure Suppression Pressure can be exceeded.

When it is determined that the Pressure Suppression Pressure will be exceeded, the crew will perform a blowdown per EO P-8.

ARP A2-3-5, SOP-1.3, OP-41 H.7.0 The unbalanced condition on the main turbine results in turbine vibration. If power is not lowered in response to the turbine vibration, it will be lowered to 80% to allow isolation of the second stage reheaters.

ALL NRC EXAM During the emergency power reduction the crew will transfer normal house service to the reserve transformers. When the transfer is made both PB 11 supply breakers will trip. The crew can recover PB 11. The trip of PB 11 will cause a trip of RRPs 11 and 12, this will result in entry into the restricted area of the Power to Flow map and the reactor should be manually scrammed.

Nl-SOP-30. I, Nl-SOP-30, Nl-SOP-1.3, Tech Specs, NI-SOP-?

When the reactor is scrammed (If the crew does NOT scram the reactor this malfunction will iequire a reactor scram) a piping rupture will occur in EC Loop 11. The steam isolation valves fail to fully close.

Nl-SOP-1.3, Nl-SOP-I, A bank of control rods will fail to fully insert requiring the crew to perform actions to manually inseft control rods. (if PBI 1 was not transferred previously it will fail to automatically transfer and must be manually transferred.)

Nl-EOP-2, Nl-EOP-3, Nl-EOP-4; Att. 2 and 4, NI-OP-12, H.l.O and G.0 Rising reactor coolant activity and radiation levels will require a blowdown. When EOP-8 is entered the crew must enter the path for all control rods not inserted. This will require the crew to terminate and prevent injection prior to emergency depressurization.
