D. Both instrument legs are at the same temperature. The uncompensated level instrument legs will boil first.
REFERENCE:
SD-01.2 page 11-12 EXPLANATION:
If an accident should occur that causes drywell temperature to increase and reactor pressure to decrease, boiling can take place in the level instrument legs. The question is; which arrangement, compensated or uncompensated, will boiling most likely occur in first? Since the compensated level instrument legs are at a higher temperature than the uncompensated legs, they will reach a higher temperature first. It should be pointed out that the legs do not heat up to drywell temperature immediately, as there is a thermal time constant that can be 4 to 6 minutes. A time constant is the amount of time required for a signal or a parameter to reach 63.21 % of the final value. After 5 time constants the signal is > 99% of the final value.
A 4 to 6 minute time constant means that it can take from 20 to 30 minutes for the reference legs to heat up to drywell temperature.
CHOICE "A" Correct answer.
CHOICE "B" The compensated legs are at a higher temperature than the uncompensated legs.
CHOICE "C" Both instrument legs are not at the same temperature.

injection to maximize the time peak clad temperatures in the uncovered portion of the core do not exceed of.
A. with 1500 B. with 1800 C. without 1500 D~ without 1800
Reference:
001-37.7 Section 2.0 overview and step 017 basis Explanation: Steam Cooling is entered when level drops below the minimum steam cooling reactor water level (LL4) and no injection sources are available. LL4 calculations are based on peak clad temperature of 1500°F. Steam cooling is meant to delay emergency depressurization with no injection sources until peak clad temperature reaches 1800°F, the basis for the minimum zero injection reactor water level or LL5. Note that if entry into steam cooling is required, peak clad temperature has already reached 1500°F by definition of LL4 .
Choice A is incorrect but plausible since this would be correct for LL4 providing adequate core cooling.
LL4 is defined as steam cooling with injection Choice B is incorrect because steam cooling is without injection but plausible since LL5 allows peak clad temperature to rise to 1800°F .
Choice C is incorrect because peak clad temperature can rise to 1800°F but plausible since LL5 calculations are based on zero injection sources Choice D is correct Page 78 of 147

REFERENCE:
Given the acceptance criteria of OMST-PCIS21 Q pages 5/6 Given 001-18 page 13 Given TS 3.3.6.1 (values whited out)
EXPLANATION:
From the acceptance criteria, LL2 must have a current reading of greater than 11.7 mAdc and LL3 must have a current reading of greater than 4.99 mAdc.
Tech spec - LL2 function is outside of its allowable isolation setpoint so it is not operable. From the bases isolation functions are considered to be maintaining isolation capability when sufficient channels are operable or in trip, such that one trip system will generate a trip signal from the given function on a valid signal. For functions 1a. (LL3) this would require both trip systems to have a total of three channels. For function 5g. (LL2) this would require one trip system to have two channels, each operable or in trip.
From 01-18 A1 and A2 are the affected instruments.
The LL3 trip logic is A1 or A2 and B1 or B2. (which still would work)
The LL2 trip logic is A1 and B1 for half and A2 and B2 for the other half of the isolation.
Based on this the LL2 function is inoperable and unable to provide isolation capability on a valid signal.

Which one of the following identifies whether or not the time requirements for recirculation and sampling of the U/1 SWRT have been met in accordance with OOP-06.4?
The requirements of OOP-06.4 for recirculation and sampling of the U/1 SWRT:
A'I have been met.
The recirculation and sample times are satisfied.
B. have NOT been met.
The recirculation time was incorrectly calculated.
C. have NOT been met.
The recirculation time was calculated correctly; however, the tank was not recirculated long enough.
D. have NOT been met.
The recirculation time was calculated correctly; however, the sample valve was not open long enough before obtaining the sample.

REFERENCE:
1OP-6.4 Discharging Radioactive Liquid Effluents the Discharge Canal, (only section 5.7 provided to examinee)
EXPLANATION:
The student must evaluate the data and determine that all of the criteria are met. First determines that 83 times 4 does equal 332 minutes, second that 332 minutes correlates to the start of recirc until the sample is taken and that the sample valve was open for greater than 5 inutes before the sample was taken.
CHOICE "A" - Correct answer CHOICE "B" - Incorrect. May determine to be correct if miscalculation is performed.
CHOICE "C" Incorrect. may determine to be correct if misapplies the time (based on going past midnight)
CHOICE "0" - Incorrect the allowable time has passed.
