(1) the outline(s) contain(s) the required number of control room and in-plant tasks W distributed among the safety functions as specified on the form
/ (2) task repetition from the last two NRC examinations is within the limits specified on the form T (3) no tasks are duplicated from the applicants' audit test(s)
(4) the number of new or modified tasks meets or exceeds the minimums specified on the form (5) the number of alternate path, low-power, emergency, and RCA tasks meet the criteria on the form. i
- b. Verify that the administrative outline meets the criteria specified on Form ES-301-1: i (1) the tasks are distributed among the topics as specified on the form R
I c. Ensure that WA importance ratings (except for plant-specific priorities) are at least 2.5.

ES-301 Operating Test Quality Checkiist Form ES-301-3 Facility: River Bend Station Date of Examination: 12/1/2008 Operating ?st Number: 1
- 1. General Criteria
- a. The operating test conforms with the previously approved outline; changes are consistent with sampling requirements (e.g., 10 CFR 55.45, operational importance, safety function distribution).
- b. There is no day-to-day repetition between this and other operating tests to be administered during this examination.
C. The operating test shall not duplicate items from the applicants' audit test(s). (see Section D.l .a,)
- d. Overlap with the written examination and between different parts of the operating test is within acceptable limits. w
- e. It appears that the operating test will differentiate between competent and less-than-competent applicants at the designated license level.
- 2. Walk-Through Criteria
- a. Each JPM includes the following, as applicable:
- initial conditions initiating cues references and tools, including associated procedures
- reasonable and validated time limits (average time allowed for completion) and specific designation if deemed to be time-critical by the facility licensee operationally important specific performance criteria that include:
- detailed expected actions with exact criteria and nomenclature
- system response and other examiner cues
- statements describing important observations to be made by the applicant
- criteria for successful completion of the task
- identification of critical steps and their associated performance standards
- restrictions on the sequence of steps, if applicable
- b. Ensure that any changes from the previously approved systems and administrative walk-through nut!ines (Forms ES-391-1 and 2) have not caused ?hetest to deviate from any of the acceptance criteria (e.g., item distribution, bank use, repetition from the last 2 NRC examinations) specified on those forms and Form ES-201-2.
- 3. Simulator Criteria The associated simulator operating tests (scenario sets) have been reviewed in accordance with Form ES-301-4and a copy is attached.

- 1. The initial conditions are realistic, in that some equipment and/or instrumentation may be out of service, but it does not cue the oDerators into exDected events.
- 3. Each event description consists of the point in the scenario when it is to be initiated
- 4. No more than one non-mechanistic failure (e.g., pipe break) is incorporated into the scenario without a credible preceding incident such as a seismic event.
- 6. Sequencing and timing of events is reasonable, and allows the examination team to obtain complete evaluation results commensurate with the scenario objectives.
7 If time compression techniques are used, the scenario summary clearly so indicates Operators have sufficient time to carry out expected activities without undue time constraints Cues are aiven.
- 8. The simulator modeling is not altered. I
- 9. The scenarios have been validated. Pursuant to 10 CFR 55.46(d), any open simulator t performance deficiencies or deviations from the referenced plant have been evaluated to ensure that functional fidelity is maintained while running the planned scenarios.
10 Every operator will be evaluated using at least one new or significantly modified scenario All other qrenarios have heen altered in accordance with Section D 5 of ES-301 . ..
