Check the applicant level and enter the operating test number and Form ES-D-1 event numbers for each event type; TS are not applicable for RO applicants. ROs must serve in both the "at-the-controls (ATC)"

and "balance-of-plant (BOP)" positions; Instant SROs must serve in both the SRO and the ATC positions, including at least two instrument or component (I/C) malfunctions and one major transient, in the ATC position. If an Instant SRO additionally serves in the BOP position, one I/C malfunction can be credited toward the two I/C malfunctions required for the ATC position.

2.

Reactivity manipulations may be conducted under normal or controlled abnormal conditions (refer to Section D.5.d) but must be significant per Section C.2.a of Appendix D. (*) Reactivity and normal evolutions may be replaced with additional instrument or component malfunctions on a 1-for-1 basis.

3.

Whenever practical, both instrument and component malfunctions should be included; only those that require verifiable actions that provide insight to the applicant's competence count toward the minimum requirements specified for the applicant's license level in the right-hand columns.

and "balance-of-plant (BOP)" positions; Instant SROs must serve in both the SRO and the ATC positions, including at least two instrument or component (I/C) malfunctions and one major transient, in the ATC position. If an Instant SRO additionally serves in the BOP position, one I/C malfunction can be credited toward the two I/C malfunctions required for the ATC position.

2.

Reactivity manipulations may be conducted under normal or controlled abnormal conditions (refer to Section D.5.d) but must be significant per Section C.2.a of Appendix D. (*) Reactivity and normal evolutions may be replaced with additional instrument or component malfunctions on a 1-for-1 basis.

3.

Whenever practical, both instrument and component malfunctions should be included; only those that require verifiable actions that provide insight to the applicant's competence count toward the minimum requirements specified for the applicant's license level in the right-hand columns.

Watts Bar Nuclear Plant 2009-302 ES-401 Written Examination Review Worksheet Form ES-401-9 Instructions

[Refer to Section D of ES-401 and Appendix B for additional information regarding each of the following concepts.]

1.

Enter the level of knowledge (LOK) of each question as either (F)undamental or (H)igher cognitive level.

2.

Enter the level of difficulty (LOD) of each question using a 1 - 5 (easy - difficult) rating scale (questions in the 2 - 4 range are acceptable).

3.

Check the appropriate box if a psychometric flaw is identified:

The stem lacks sufficient focus to elicit the correct answer (e.g., unclear intent, more information is needed, or too much needless information).

The stem or distractors contain cues (Le., clues, specific determiners, phrasing, length, etc).

The answer choices are a collection of unrelated true/false statements.

The distractors are not credible; single implausible distractors should be repaired, more than one is unacceptable.

One or more distractors is (are) partially correct (e.g., if the applicant can make unstated assumptions that are not contradicted by stem).

4.

Check the appropriate box if a job content error is identified:

The question is not linked to the job requirements (Le., the question has a valid KIA but, as written, is not operational in content).

The question requires the recall of knowledge that is too specific for the closed reference test mode (Le., it is not required to be known from memory).

The question contains data with an unrealistic level of accuracy or inconsistent units (e.g., panel meter in percent with question in gallons).

The question requires reverse logic or application compared to the job requirements.

5.

Check questions that are sampled for conformance with the approved KIA and those that are designated SRO-only (KIA and license level mismatches are unacceptable).

6.

Enter question source: (B)ank, (M)odified, or (N)ew. Check that (M)odified questions meet criteria of ES-401 Section D.2.f.

7.

Based on the reviewer's judgment, is the question as written (U)nsatisfactory (requiring repair or replacement), in need of (E)ditorial enhancement, or (S)atisfactory?

8.

At a minimum, explain any "U" ratings (e.g., how the Appendix B psychometric attributes are not being met).

'4.l!"I~!!!'11!i1P0111~~~;~~,~~i;~;~~!'II~~!~;~:~~~~~~~5~~~~j,,~~~;1 Is there an alarm received? If an alarm is received, what actions will the operator be directed to take. At what level will the alarm come in? Will it come in before the auto action occurs?...... Consider identifying the alarm in the stem. The fact that "on low level in Surge Tank" in choices "A" and "B" is not included, could possibly cue the applicant to exclude them. Consider moving "on low level in Surge Tank" into the stem after the first fill-in-the-blank and remove from choices "c" and "0". (MINOR CHANGES) (OK)

(OK)

(OK)

The stem is confusing. Consider asking the applicant what could cause the alarm. How and where would you go to determine what caused the alarm? (CHANGED AS SUGGESTED) (OK)

(OK)

(OK) o not plausible. The word operated instead of opened or closed has the potential to make all 4 answers incorrect. If FCV-72-40 were partially open for whatever reason, can I close it with the suction valve from the RWST open? (CHANGED DISTRACTOR, MINOR CHANGE TO STEM) (OK)

With RCS temp comparable to about 370 psig, Stm Line Low Pressure causing an isolation (when it hasn't already) is not plausible. This x2 is unsat.

Will an open PORV reduce pressure at 100/50 sec when at 370 psig?

Rec: Make RCS pressure - 1900 psig? (MADE CHANGES TO PRESSURE AND TEMP) (OK)

Tc and power changing in the same direction is not plausible x2 is unsat.

Rec; Does COLR have a power that your not allowed above without a negative CXTmod (like 80% or so). If so, make this question immediately after a refueling outage to add the potential of being overmoderated OR maybe after stabilizing, power will be: Pzr level will be: Power will be:.....
