OC NRC Re-Take Exam 2008 NRC 1 Simulator Scenario Summary Event Event Summary 1 The plant is at rated power. The BOP will peform 602.4.004, Main Steam Isolation Valve 10% Closure Test, for two MSIVs.
2 MSlV NS04B will stick open during the closure test requiring a TS 3.5.3 entry (TS-SRO) 3 The crew will respond to loss of the USS 1A2 480V Bus. Actions include starting RBCCW 1-2, CRD pump B and swapping RPS power supplies. The SRO will address TS 3.7.6. (TS-SRO) 4 The ATC will respond to an INOP failure of an APRM. The APRM must be bypassed and the % scram reset. TS will be reviewed by the SRO (no LCO required).
5 The ATC/BOP respond to indications of a single control rod drifting out. ABN-6, Control Rod Malfunctions, Section 5.0, will be entered.
The ATC will insert the control rod, which indicates still drifting out.
The BOP will scram the individual control rod from a back panel.
The control rod will be isolated and the SRO will declare the control rod inoperable, and will verify 6 inoperable control rods IAW TS 3.2.6.4.
6 The BOP will respond to a trip of running service water pump 1-2.
Actions will be taken IAW RAP-Klf and ABN-18 Service Water Failure Response to start the standby pump.
7 The crew will diagnose and respond to a loss of Main Condenser Vacuum IAW ABN-14 Loss of Condenser Vacuum. The SRO will direct a power reduction to maintain vacuum. The RO will reduce reactor power with recirc flow and condenser vacuum will stabilize.
8 The Crew will respond to an unisolable Reactor Water Cleanup System leak in the Reactor Building. Before any area temperature reaches MAX SAFE, the SRO will direct a manual scram, which will be successful. When two areas exceed the MAX SAFE temperature values, the SRO will direct emergency depressurization. (MAJOR TRANSIENT) 9 Following entry into in Primary Containment Control EOP due to high torus temperature from EMRC operation, a Containment Spray pump will fail to start while being placed in Torus Cooling, requiring the start of an alternate pump.

Additionally, one DW/Torus Vacuum Breaker will fail open, resulting in the pressurization of the Torus air space. Emergency Depressurization will be required when it has been determined that Torus pressure cannot be maintained below the PSP.

OC NRC Re-Take Exam 2008 Simulator Setup
- 1. Reset the simulator to the normal full power IC-65
- 2. Run CAEP file SIMPROB
- 3. Reduce power to 92% with recirculation flow
- 4. Place a tag on the RWM Switch in BYPASS
- 5. Place TBCCW Pump 2 in PTL and hang tag
- 6. Have a prepared ReMA with the following 3 steps:
- a. Reduce power to 92% with recirculation flow (already completed)
- b. Withdraw the following control rods from position 12 to position 14:
- i. 14-31, 14-23, 22-39, 22-15, 30-39, 30-15, 38-31, 38-23
