Made closing 2CV7 and 2CV8 at step 3.2 critical steps.
Re-printed and placed in Master Folder in Exam Room Cabinet.
Sime Removed required performance of step 5.2.1, and changed initiating cue to start at step 5.2.2 vs. perform Section 5.2. Initialed step 5.2.1 as complete in procedure.
Added time compression to JPM, by putting in malfunction to open 21 MS167 tied to a trigger that the Simulator Operator will insert after cue is given by evaluator that time compression will be used. Added cue that the valve stroke time was 3 minutes 50 seconds. Added direction to Simulator operator to remove malfunction once valve is open between steps 5.2.7 and 5.2 8.
Added malfunction to Simulator Setup.
Added "No other testing is being performE~d in the inner penetration area." to Initial Conditions.

SRO Admin A2 (static)
No changes SROAdminA3 Replaced with different JPM. Sent to I\lRC on 4/8/10.
SRO Admin A4's A4-1 (ESG-1) No change A4-2 (ESG-2) No change A4-3 (ESG-3) Step 3 changed Attachment 2 to Attachment 3 (ECG call is SAE which is attachment 3, not Attachment 2 which is ALERT. The Standard had correct attachment listed, the Step did not.
A4-4 (ESG-4 Spare) Step 3 changed Attachment 2 to Attachment 3 (ECG call is SAE which is attachment 3, not Attachment 2 which is ALERT. The Standard had correct attachment listed, the Step did not.
Re-printed both and placed in Master Folcler in Exam Room Cabinet.
RO Admin A 1-1 On page 22 of procedure key, changed Final Data Time from "100" to "1000".
On page 28 of key, 7.0 Acceptance Criteria, the third Parameter is "Primary to Secondary Leak Rate Line 2E". The key originally had "2.0" as the correct answer, since the Acceptance Criteria is in GPD. I added the corresponding GPM, since Line 2E on page 27 has the Gandidate turn the GPO number, provided on their copy of the procedure, into GPM to add to the Total Leak Rates, whose Acceptance Criteria are also contained in Section 7.0 Page 2 of3
The actual JPM paperwork, on page 6 of 8, in the Standard for 7.0, already stated ... "(Line 2E may be in gpm)" but since I added the 0.001 to the procedure key, I changed this to remove the statement in parentheses, and added (or 0.001) after the 2.0 for Line 2E.

- Also removed the Simulator operator step at top of page 13 about ensuring ET-5 was true since it is not activated on RT-1.

Instructions
[Refer to Section 0 of ES-401 and Appendix B for additional information regarding each of the following concepts.]
- 1. Enter the level of knowiedge (LOK) of each question as either (F)undamental or (H)igher cognitive level.
- 2. Enter the level of difficulty (LOO) 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 (i.e., 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 0.2.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).
