Note:1.
Ensure that at least two topics from every applicable K/A category are sampled within each tier of the RO and SRO-only outlines (i.e., except for one category in Tier 3 of the SRO-only outline, the Tier Totals in each K/A category shall not be less than two).
- 2.
The point total for each group and tier in the proposed outline must match that specified in the table. The final point total for each group and tier may deviate by +/-1 from that specified in the table based on NRC revisions. The final RO exam must total 75 points and the SRO-only exam must total 25 points.
- 3.
Systems/evolutions within each group are identified on the associated outline; systems or evolutions that do not apply at the facility should be deleted and justified; operationally important, site-specific systems that are not included on the outline should be added. Refer to ES-401, Attachment 2, for guidance regarding the elimination of inappropriate K/A statements.
- 4.
Select topics from as many systems and evolutions as possible; sample every system or evolution in the group before selecting a second topic for any system or evolution.
a)
Absent a plant-specific priority, only those K/As having an importance rating (IR) of 2.5 or higher shall be selected. Use the RO and SRO ratings for the RO and SRO-only portions, respectively.
- 6.
Select SRO topics for Tiers 1 and 2 from the shaded systems and K/A categories.
7.*
The generic (G) K/As in Tiers 1 and 2 shall be selected from Section 2 of the K/A Catalog, but the topics must be relevant to the applicable evolution or system.
- 8.
On the following pages, enter the K/A numbers, a brief description of each topic, the topics importance ratings (IRs) for the applicable license level, and the point totals (#) for each system and category. Enter the group and tier totals for each category in the table above; if fuel handling equipment is sampled in other than Category A2 or G* on the SRO-only exam, enter it on the left side of Column A2 for Tier 2, Group 2 (Note #1 does not apply). Use duplicate pages for RO and SRO-only exams.
i)
For Tier 3, select topics from Section 2 of the K/A catalog, and enter the K/A numbers, descriptions, IRs, and point totals (#)
on Form ES-401-3. Limit SRO selections to K/As that are linked to 10 CFR 55.43.

ES-401, Rev. 9 Record of Rejected K/As Form ES-401-4 Justification for Systems/Evolutions not included for selection in the Outline Note 1: Cooper Nuclear Station does not have a Mark III containment and therefore this category is not applicable to Cooper.
Note 2: This category is not applicable to Cooper because Cooper does not have an isolation condenser.
Note 3: This category is not applicable to Cooper because Cooper does not have a HPCS system.
Note 4: Cooper no longer uses a RSCS.
Note 5: Cooper does not have a RCIS.
ES-401, Rev. 9 Record of Rejected K/As Form ES-401-4 Tier /
Group Randomly Selected K/A Reason for Rejection 1/1 SRO 295024.EA2.10 K/A is for containment Temperature Mark III containment. Cooper Nuclear Stations does not have a Mark III containment.
1/1/ SRO 295024.EA2.07 K/A is for containment radiation levels Mark III containment.
Cooper Nuclear Stations does not have a Mark III containment.
1/2/SRO 295002.G2.1.30 There is no applicability to 10CFR55.43(b) for 295002 Loss of condenser vacuum as it applies to 2.1.30 Ability to locate and operate components / including local controls.
2/1/RO 239002.K5.03 This K/A is not applicable because Cooper does not have acoustic monitors on the SRVs.
2/1/RO 261000.K2 No K2 with importance greater than 2.5 and no plant specific priority for any K2 in 261000. Reselected category randomly selected A2 as the category.
2/1/RO 264000.K2 No K2 with importance greater than 2.5 reselected randomly selected K6 as the category. Now that K6 is oversampled changed the category for 400000 CCW to K2.
2/2/RO 201006.K1.06 This K/A is not applicable to Cooper because cooper does not use a Rod Sequence Control System.
2/2/RO 215001.K4.02 Importance rating less than 2.5 with no plant specific priority.
2/2/RO 256000.K5.06 Importance rating less than 2.5 with no plant specific priority.
