- 1. WHICH ONE of the following describes the reason for a reactor scram that occurs as a result of a Main Turbine trip?
A. Limits positive reactivity due to a reduced void concentration when turbine stop valves close.
B. Minimizes level transient that occurs when feed pumps swap to high pressure steam.
C. Limits positive reactivity due to increased feedwater su b-cooling when extraction steam is lost.
D. Minimizes level transient that occurs when voids collapse due to turbine control valves closing.

B C
D Basis or Justification Void concentration will rapidly decrease on closing of the turbine steam admission valves resulting in a large positive reactivity addition.
While the reactor feed pumps do swap from cross-around (LP) steam to main steam (HP) and this does contribute to the post-scram level transient that will occur, it is not part of the basis for the scram.
While this will occur, the Reactor power rise will be slight and gradual. This is not the reason for the Scram.
While this level transient will occur, it is not part of the basis for the scram I

c 3R-0 Basis or Justification Per OT-I 01 bases, the Drywell may be vented if pressure is less than 1.68 psig. Therefore, slowing the rate of Drywell pressure rise allows time to vent.
The reason for Maximizing Drywell cooling is to slow the rise or prevent reaching 1.68 psig in the Drywell. It is not to protect the Recirc pumps.
The Drywell chill water isolation may be bypassed after entry into and meeting the Drywell temperature requirements of T-I 02 The design Drywell temperature of 340°F is to protect the ADS solenoids.
This is beyond the bases for OT-I 01.

Basis or Justification 295026 EA2.03 SP temp is 20°F from HCTL and rising slowly despite having 2 loops of SP Cooling in service. T-102 SPK-8 directs that if SP temp cannot be maintained on the safe side of HCTL, then maintain RPV pressure on the safe side of HCTL.
SP level is high but 3.5 feet away from SP/L-l limit and level is stable -
Reducing pressure for the purposes of maintaining this curve is not warranted.
While RPV Level is e-186, it is only 9 OOB and rising slowly. The criteria for T-l17LQ is level can be restored. With SRVs being used for pressure control, it is not unusual to go e-186 for short periods of time. T-I12 is not warranted under these conditions.

Incorrect Incorrect Incorrect A
B C
D SRd Basis or Justification Core Cooling is assured in steam cooling as long as level is between -161 and -201, with no injection and pressure less than the value recorded in T-I I I LR-14. Even though pressure is <I OO# below recorded value, this supply calls for a new pressure load.
Calculations for MZI RWL assures that there is no sub cooling at the core inlet. Since any injection would invalidate this assumption, adequate Core Cooling cant be assured if RPV level is <-I61 and water is being injected.
Once stabilized, if RPV pressure rises above the value recorded in CR-14, MZIRWL calculations are no longer valid and the core may not be adequately cooled.
The candidate would select this answer if he didnt recognize that the safe area of this curve is below the curve. This is a common error because this varies between curves. It is also incorrect because water is being injected.

WHICH ONE of the following describes the procedure(s), which must be entered for valid alarms, and the required operator action(s)?
A. Enter ON-I 02 ONLY; reduce reactor power in accordance with GP-5, Appendix 2.
B. Enter T-103 ONLY; perform a GP-3 Normal Plant Shutdown.
C. Enter ON-I02 and T-103; p.erform a rapid plant shutdown and close the MSIVs.

Answer Key
~~
Main steam line high rad requires entry into ON-102 and 1-103. The high-high rad alarm indicates three times NFPB. Per T-I03 this requires a rapid plant shutdown and closure of the MSIVs While reducing power is an immediate action per ON-102, question conditions also require entry into T-103 and the actions described in C above ON-I02 entry is also required and a GP-3 shutdown would be appropriate per T-103 if 2 or more areas exceeded MSO rad level, but is not adequate for the stated conditions An emergency blow-down would be appropriate per T-I 03 if two or more areas exceeded MSO and a primary system was discharging into the Reactor Enclosure. but is not reauired for MSL Hiah-Hiah Rad onlv Choice Correct:

This is incorrect because it requires a loss of both IAYI 85 and 1 BY185 for the APRMs to fail downscale. In addition, a full scram would not occur.

D. Insert control rods until the Restricted Region of the Power/Flow Map is exited.

~
D A
Answer Key Because the speed of the operating Recirc Pump is >60%, the Core Flow and Reactor power indications provided should be used to determine operating point. With the given information, the plant is in the Restricted Region, and the correct action is an immediate exit by the insertion of control rods or the raising of Recirculation flow.
Immediately scram the reactor is not correct because the operating point is not in the Exclusion Region, therefore, a reactor scram is not required.
Choice Correct:
B Incorrect:
Restart 1 B Recirc Pump and raise core flow with 1 B recirc pump is wrong as restarting a pump to raise flow is not allowed in OT-I I 2 Incorrect C
Incorrect Reduce Recirc pump speed to less than 60% and manually scram the reactor is not correct as reducing speed drive the reactor further into the restricted region.

RPV pressure is sufficient to cause a SDC isolation. Pressure must be reduced before SDC can be restored. The cooling tower draining makes the Main Condenser unavailable per ON-I 21 bases and therefore, pressure must be reduced with SRVs.
Dedicated LPCl Pumps will not work because SDC is isolated.

~~~
Suppression Pool Water level and pressure are in the UNSAFE region of the PSP Curve. T-I 02 directs a T-I 12 blowdown based on steam in the suppression pool airspace preventing pressure suppression function if conditions further degrade.
This is a legitimate reason for spraying the drywell if conditions supported this action. Current conditions are unsafe to spray.
This is a legitimate reason for spraying the drywell if conditions supported this action. Current conditions are unsafe to spray.
While the action is correct, the basis is not. At the given RPV pressure, Suppression Pool level would have to be 38.7 ft, in order to threaten the integrity of the SRV tailpipes.

A B
C Answer Key With the RClC flow controller in MANUAL, it is maintaining constant speed.
With the turbine at constant speed, as, RPV pressure goes down, injection will rise and RPV level will rise. The controller output must be lowered to reduce turbine speed. This is a simple quick act per OP-LG-108-101-1001.
This valve would be closed to transfer to pressure control mode. Given the conditions, pressure is going down with just the steam used to drive RCIC, therefore, level will go up. Transfer to pressure control would not be appropriate. The procedure would be appropriate if this were the correct action.
Raising RClC controller output would only exacerbate the level trend that will result from the given conditions. The procedure would be appropriate if this were the correct action.
This valve would be opened to transfer from level control to pressure to pressure control mode. The procedure would be appropriate if this were the correct action.

Basis or Justification Reactor pressure will increase slightly requiring entry into OT-I 02. OT-I02 requires power to be lowered to below 90% on a control valve closure.

This is incorrect as Reactor pressure will not reach the scram setpoint.
Electrical failure of the solenoid for the control valve does not affect bypass valve response. While power may rise slightly, if OT-104 were entered, it does NOT reference pressure.

While T-217 and T-218 are required, T-I01 requires SLC injection.
T-213, T-215, T-216, and T-219 are not required because the scram valves are open. In addition, T-101 requires SLC injection.

Basis or Justification The A Chlorine detector causes a partial chlorine isolation. The Loss of Div 3 DC completes the isolation and causes the A CREFAS Fan to start due to de-energizing the trip logic. Therefore, a manual isolation is not required and only verification of the existing isolation.
The procedure reference is correct, however the A CREFAS is running.
~~~
The fan status is correct, however manual isolation is not required and only verification of the existing isolation.
The A CREFAS is running and manual isolation is not required and only verification of the existing isolation.

WHICH ONE of the following describes the required action(s)?
A. Check RWCU and Condensate Deep Bed Demin effluent conductivity to identify the source.
B. Reduce power per GP-5, Appendix 2 and sequentially remove Circulating Water system loops from service to identify the source.
