Oct 2,2006 NMP Outline Review Comments e RO Admin 1 - this task is overly leading and is effectively cuing the applicants that there is something wrong with this particular instrumentation. A more appropriate task would be to have the applicants take multiple log readings on one section of the panels for example, and then identify the problems. This is more operationally valid and does not cue an obvious problem. The licensee did not disagree and will look into revising the proposed task.
e RO Admin 2 - Appears that the task may be overly simplistic. In discussions with the exam developer he indicated that the applicants would have to determine that the system electrical alignment was wrong for one or more components. Will withhold final judgment until the exam item is presented.
e RO Admin 3 - Appears to be overly simplistic but will withhold final judgment until the exam item is presented.
m JPM 7 - Appears to be overly simplistic but will withhold final judgment until the exam item is presented.
e JPM 8 - Licensee plans to replace task based on his own personal concerns prior to submittal.
e JPMs 9, 10 & 11 - Noted all proposed in plant JPMs were being taken from the licensees exam bank. Concerned with a relatively small in plant JPM bank may not be discriminating. Licensee proposed that he make JPM 10 alt path.
e Scenario #1 - Typo in summary description should be 90%vice 100%.
e Scenario #2, Event 8 - very lengthy - licensee indicated may not be required action. It would not be counted then.
e Scenario #2 - Some verbage missing from event summary top of pg. 6 of 11.
e General Comment - TS calls that do not involve operator actions will not count as a malfunction - i.e., other than for the TS calls for the SRO applicants acting in the CRS position only.
e Written Exam, Tier 2/Grp 1, RO 13 - maybe better tested in dynamic exam will withhold final judgment until the exam item is presented.
Written Exam, Tier UGrp 1, RO 117 & 26 - cautioned electrical power supplies make sure you examine at the appropriate level not just asking power supplies.
0 Written Exam, Tier 2/Grp 1, RO 34 - EDG alarm set points - cautioned okay if exam item tests remote alarms but not CR alarms that are extensively examined during the dynamic exam portion.
0 Written Exam, Tier 2/Grp 1, RO 35 - make sure this a licensed operator task and has a valid LO not just NLO knowledge.
Written Exam, Tier 3, RO 2 - maybe be more appropriately tested on dynamic or JPM.
Written Exam, Tier 3, RO 9 - prioritizing EOPs implementation more appropriate for SRO topic.
Record of rejected WAS - reasons for rejections for several WAS in-appropriate e.g.,
NOT RO level topic 2.1.17 . Please go back and re-consider all justifications for rejection and ensure if rejecting a WA it is for a valid reason.
Written Exam, Tier 3, SRO 6 - recognizing EOPs entry conditions more appropriate for RO topic not SRO level knowlege.

CT-1.O Flood to Main Steam Lines CT-2.0 Containment Spray Scenario 1 Summary The scenario begins a t J h 5 reactor power, with the Mechanical Pressure Regulator (MPR) in service. The crew will shift pressure control to the Electronic Pressure regulator (EPR) per normal operating procedures. Shortly after assuming the shift, Feedwater Booster Pump 13 automatically trips and the standby booster pump automatically starts. The pump is a HPCl component and must b e declared inoperable. SRO enters TS 3.1.8 and the pump must be restored within 15 days. While shifting regulators, one of the four drywell pressure transmitters fails downscale, preventing that channel from actuating protective functions. The transmitter inputs to RPS, Core Spray, Containment Spray and Automatic Depressurization Systems (ADS). Tech Spec entry is required.
Recirc Pump 13 Motor Generator experiences an overheating condition and generator slot temperature rises. The crew will reduce power and remove Recirc Pump 13 from service. As turbine load is reduced, a pre-existing failure in the Turbine Steam Seal regulating system is revealed. The turbine seals are normally self-sealing at high power levels. The component failure is only evident as load is reduced from the Recirc Pump trip. Seal header pressure drops below normal values. The crew restores seal header pressure by manually opening the steam seal bypass valve.
A failure of the Recirc Master Flow Controller results in an unplanned power changes, as Recirc Flow is reduced to minimum. Plant parameters are such that the Restricted Zone of the Power/Flow Map is entered. The crew implements N1-SOP-1.5 and must exit the Restricted Zone by inserting cram rods. The transient is complicated by a failure of the Turbine Steam Seal Regulator Bypass valve which causes a degraded condenser vacuum, due to loss of steal seals. Vacuum lowers and now results in a required turbine trip due to low load (<I90 MWe) and high backpressure (>5 inches). The crew trips the turbine, but the reactor remains at power, since power is now within turbine bypass valve capability. The crew is expected to manually initiate a scram, due to the degrading conditions. If the crew does not initiate a manual scram, a spurious automatic scram will occur.
Several minutes after the reactor is scrammed, a steam leak inside the drywell develops along with a failure of an additional drywell pressure transmitter. The transmitter failure results in loss of function for actions occurring on high drywell pressure. These functions include loss of automatic scram, automatic start of Core Spray and Containment Spray systems and ADS. Following the scram, all RPV water level indicators will become erratic as reference legs flash, due to the elevated drywell temperature. The crew will be required to flood the RPV to the Main Steam Lines 9/22/2006 7:22:40 AM 2 of 11 NRC Exam Outline Submittal
per N1-EOP-7, RPV Flooding. The crew will also control Primary Containment parameters by implementing NI-EOP-4, Primary Containment.
Major Procedures Exercised: N1-SOP-1.3, N1-SOP-1.5, N1-SOP-25.1, N1-EOP-2, N1-EOP-4, N1-EOP-7 EAL Classification: SAE 2.1.2 RPV Flooding is required.
Termination Criteria: RPV Flooding conditions are met. Containment Spray initiated and secured when DWP drops below 3.5 psig.

Scenario 2 Summary The crew assumes the shift with the plant operating at rated conditions and Containment Spray Pump 122 removed from service for maintenance. The crew will perform NI-ST-Q4, Reactor Coolant System Isolation Valves Operability Test, on the Emergency Condenser (EC) Loop 12 Isolation Valves (IVs) per Section 8.2. This test consists of stoke time tests for EC Steam Isolation Valves. A valve failure will result in entry into Tech Specs for the failed coolant and containment isolation valve w j / / LlbL & b d f When the surveillance on the EC Loop 12 IVs is addressed, the crew will respond to an inadvertent opening of an ERV. The crew will perform b n emergency power reduction to about 85%. A failure of the Master Recirc Flow Controller will require the crew to either take manual control of the pump MA stations or insert the cram rods to complete the power reduction. The ERV will be closed when the crew pulls the control power fuses. The SRO must also assess the Tech Spec impact of the inoperable ERV.
1 E C I 1 vent radiation monitor alarms and the crew determines that a tube leak exists, based on confirmed alarms and rising shell water level. The crew will isolate E C I 1 to stop the release. The'SRO reviews Tech Specs and determines with E C I 1 inoperable Tech Spec 3.1.3.b applies. However, with a confirmed EC Tube Leak a plant shutdown is required. Additionally both EC are now inoperable and unavailable for pressure control.
Following the power reduction, turbine vibration will rise and steam leak in the turbine building develops.
These reach a severity level that requires a turbine trip and a reactor scram.

the turbine building, the main condenser will only be available as a heat sink for a short period of time after the scram before the MSlVs are closed, on high steam tunnel temperature. The crew will terminate and prevent injection to lower reactor water level and suppress reactor power. When the main condenser is lost as a heat sink, the crew will maintain reactor pressure using the ERVs and will place torus cooling in service. Because of the rising torus water temperature the crew will inject Liquid Poison (LP). When the Liquid Poison Pump1 1 is started, it will trip after several minutes of injection, requiring recognition of its failure and with pump 12 already out of service, alternate boron injection must be directed. The SRO will direct the actions of EOP-3 and EOP-4 including alternate control rod insertion per EOP-3.1. The crew will be able to insert control rods, after starting a CRD pump, using the Reactor Manual Control System (RMCS) and manual reactor scrams will be successful in inserting the control rods. The SRO will be required to reduce the pressure control band to remain within the heat capacity temperature limit, since the loss of both Emergency Condensers adds additional heat to the torus due to additional heat rejected through ERVs.
Major Procedures:
EAL Classification: SITE AREA EMERGENCY 2.2.2 Termination Criteria: All control rods inserted, EOP-3 exited, EOP-2 entered and crew directed to restore reactor water level restored to 53-95 inches.

CT-1.O Initiate scram before blowdown CT-2.0 Insert rods using ARI CT-3.0 Blowdown when 2 areas above 135 Scenario 3 Summary The scenario begins at about 2% reactor power, during plant startup. RPV pressure is 845 psig. The crew will continue the startup raising pressure to 918 psig and establishing pressure control on the Electronic Pressure Regulator (EPR). As pressure is raised to about 900 psig, the second Reactor Water Cleanup Pump is started per normal operating procedures. IRM 11 failure due to an inop trip occurs resulting in a trip if RPS Channel 11. The crew will bypass the failed instrument and reset the resulting RPS channel trip.
Service Water Pump 11 trips occurs requiring a standby pump to be placed in service. Control Rod 30-31 will drift out. The rod is fully inserted and isolated. With power level below RWM setpoint the RWM must be bypassed to insert the drifting rod. The startup now continues the startup by pulling control rods. Reactor Building radiation monitor 11 inop condition occurs. Tech Spec entry into 3.6.2.j is required because the monitor is part of RB Emergency Ventilation initiation instrumentation.
RPV Narrow Range level input to Feedwater Level Control System (FWLC) fails upscale. With the level transmitter failed high, an RPV water level transient results requiring crew to take manual control of level control valve to prevent an automatic protective trip function per N2-SOP-16.1, Feedwater Failures. When level is stabilized the crew will either maintain manual level control or transfer to a redundant Narrow Range transmitter per normal operating procedures and subsequently return FWLC to automatic control.
The major transient begins when an Emergency Condenser steam leak into Reactor Building occurs.
Automatic and manual attempts to isolate the leak will be unsuccessful. Entry in EOP-5, Secondary Containment Control is required and the reactor will be manually scrammed. When the manual scram is initiated both RPS channels fail to trip. The crew enters EOP-3 Failure To Scram and takes initial actions to mitigate the event. When the crew manually initiates ARI, all control rods will fully insert and EOP-3 is exited. The crew transitions back to EOP-2 RPV Control. During the scram the operating Feedwater Pumps trip, complicating post scram level control. When Reactor Building general area temperatures exceed 135°F in more than one area, an RPV Blowdown using EOP-8 is required. Reactor Building Ventilation system malfunctions require manually action to mitigate steam leak into the building which could lead to a release.

CRITICAL TASK DESCRIPTIONS:
CT-I .O Initiate Containment Spray CT-2.0 Restore and maintain RPV level above -109 inches CT-3.0 Terminate Containment Sprays Scenario Alternate Summary Crew assumes the shift with the plant at 95% power with Feedwater Pump 12 out of service for repairs. The crew is directed to restore reactor power to <I 00% following performance of N1-ST-W 1, Control Rod Exercising and Operability Test. Following the power reduction the crew is directed to swap CRD Stabilizing Valves from A and B to E and F. After this, APRM 13 will fail upscale, producing a half scram that may be reset. Crew will bypass the failed APRM, reset the half-scram and review Technical Specifications for the failed instrument.
After the Technical Specifications review, a seal leak develops on Reactor Recirculation Pump 11. Crew will remove that pump from service, attempt to isolate it, and review Technical Specifications. Reactor pressure will then begin to oscillate. Crew will recognize a failing EPR, place the MPR in control, move the EPR to its high stop, and review Technical Specifications for operation without a backup regulator. When the plant is stable, the MPR will fail, causing a reactor scram. Crew enters EOP-2 on low RPV water level.
After scram actions are complete, Powerboard 102 will develop a fault; EDG 102 will start, but its output breaker will not close. The Crew crossties PB 166 and PB 16A and restore loads. Shortly afterwards, FWP 11 will trip, leaving only CRD pumps and Liquid Poison pumps for high-pressure injection.
A medium break LOCA begins to develop inside Primary Containment. Crew enters EOP-4 on high drywell pressure. When Core Spray pumps start, one of the operable pumps will trip. Recognizing its inability to maintain level above TAF with high-pressure injection, the crew aligns alternate injection sources, and enters EOP-8 for blowdown.
Core Spray slowly begins to recover water level when suction strainer clogging occurs causing the running Core Spray Pump to trip. By this time, RPV pressure is low enough for firewater to inject. Crew will restore and maintain RPV water level above -109 inches.
Major Procedures: N1-EOP-2, 4, and 8 EAL Classification: Alert EAL 3.1.1 Termination Criteria: RPV depressurized with level recovered above -1 09 inches 9/22/2006 7:22:40 A M 11 of 11 NRC Exam Outline Submittal
