Also pages 7 & 8 provide clarification in the first bullets by stating that if the question involves prescribing a procedure, then it may be SRO-only.
To further clarify: One area of SRO-level knowledge (with respect to prescribing or selecting procedures) is knowledge of the content of the procedure (SRO knowledge) versus knowledge of the overall mitigative strategy of the procedure (RO knowledge). To satisfy the 10CFR55.43.5 topic, the question must be linked to procedure selection.

[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 (i.e., 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 K/A 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 (i.e., 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 K/A and those that are designated SRO-only (K/A 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 reviewers 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).

90 H 2 X X N U 400000A2.02 S This question is not SRO Only. An RO could determine the answer by using knowledge of the overall mitigative strategy of the procedure.
The 1st half of choice B or D can be determined using RO knowledge of Rx trip criteria (i.e. a Rx trip is required for a loss of RBCCW). Only one ARM reading is given; therefore, by knowing that it requires at least 2 ARM readings > Max Safe to ED, distractors C & D can be eliminated (this is knowledge of overall mitigative strategy). From this analysis of RO information the correct answer can be determined as choice B.
EOI-3 was not provided for use in evaluating distractor analysis.
Could correct by rewording 2nd question to ask what procedure is used to C/D the plant?
4/20/10, Reviewed again for draft submittal. This is not meeting the KA. The impact of the high surge tank level (i.e., the KA) is stated in the stem of the question: RBCCW is isolated to containment. This should be in the distractor statements as a choice. To make this possible, more bullets need to be added to the stem to reflect the leak is from the RCP seal cooler [rise in 2-RM-90-131(Panel 2-9-10) activity (2-RR-90-131/132 on Panel 2-9-2) or 2-TE-68-54 or 67 temperature (Panel 2-9-21) or a lowering of any Recirc pump seal pressure.]. Does the 2nd question need to broken out? The question could be read to mean that the criteria to scram and initiate the cooldown are contained in the same procedure (in this case that assumption is correct). Would it make the other choices more plausible to break this into two statements?
The impact of losing CCW to the drywell is a required scram.
However, what is the impact of high/low surge tank level on the CCWS? ES-401, Section D.2.a states that for A2 K/A statements, try to test both aspects of the K/A and if that is not possible without expending an inordinate amount of resources, then limit the scope to the question to that aspect of the K/A statement requiring the highest cog level, i.e., the 2nd portion dealing with using procedures.

OPL171.059 for Startup has this shown under an objective for the 100 deg. Heatup limit. This was used on last years NRC exam, verify this is noted on the QA form. I could not locate the question on last years NRC exam.

ROs are expected to know the LCO statement (TS 3.4.9 RCS Temp & Press Limits), applicability, and any notes; i.e., the information above the double line separating the actions from the LCO and applicability statements.

The knowledge associated with Modes is also RO knowledge. Suggest writing a question testing the applicants knowledge of WHEN alternate SDCg is REQUIRED (based on a trend) IAW the AOP and the minimum REQUIRED emergency classification.
5/20/10 Revised question on site. Changed 1st part to derive exact time of mode change and 2nd part to state that the EAL is met.
81 H X U 295024G2.1.31 S This does not appear to be SRO Only level knowledge. Can use RO knowledge alone to determine both responses. The OI for manual operation specifies 5K for the setpoint. OPL171.201 Objective V.B.7 requires an RO to know that EOI appendices are used instead of OI when in the EOI arena.
Q=KA The proposed test item does not meet the K/A because it does not test the applicants knowledge of the required lineup for switches/
controls and/or required indications following a high drywell pressure condition. [The proposed item tests the applicants knowledge of whether the HPCI controller setpoint is at the required standby lineup setpoint and the required procedure after the EOI high drywell entry condition has been reached.] The HPCI controller setpoint is always true, even if no high drywell pressure condition exists. The question should test the applicants ability to confirm a switch or indication is lined up correctly following a high drywell pressure actuation.

83 F X U 295010G2.2.4 S Distractors C&D do not appear plausible. If emergency depressurization is required EOI-1 RCP is not plausible at this point.
Suggest a change to the 2nd part of the distractor to a reason why ED is necessary from the basis statement. Part D plausibility is incorrect.
5/20/10 Question is still UNSAT upon onsite review. The 2nd part of the distractors is still missing. (See above in blue).
Upon editorial changes being made to the question the question is acceptable even though no explanation is involved. The KA is met via the technical process of understanding the unit difference to arrive at the answer.
84 H X U 295014AA2.01 S This question does not meet the KA because the applicants are not being tested on their ability to determine or interpret reactor power because this value is already provided in the stem, i.e., 16%. Instead, the proposed question tests the applicants knowledge of the applicability of TS 3.1.6, i.e., when rod pattern control is required. If the intent was to require the applicant to interpret reactor power, then provide a disparity between various indicated power levels and test the applicants knowledge of which indication means power is less than 16%.
5/3/10, Reviewed again for draft submittal. Agreed with licensees argument. Since the T.S. applicability requires knowledge of the power level, this question is considered as an original SAT.

85 H X X E 295033G2.3.13 S Distractors A&C justification referenced that EPIP-8 provided this guidance if all TVA EROs were activated. This guidance could not be confirmed. Also EPIP-8 is Personnel Evacuation & Accountability not Dose Assessment. The question is misleading.
- /units: Use ONLY the exact titles of procedures in NRC questions, i.e., in A and C. Since the exact title of EPIP-8 makes choices A and C not plausible, then suggest incorporating another knowledge item to test associated with the required operator actions when a fuel assembly is dropped (in accordance with the AOP). The 2nd portion of the proposed test item is SRO (i.e., E-plan classification) 5/20/10 Add: Based on the above conditions, which ONE 86 H X E 203000A2.09 S Replace distractor A with 1600 (0300 + 13hrs to Mode 3) vs. 1800.
This is a more realistic error an operator would make. The applicant is more likely to apply the T.S. 3.5.1 clock start time from the time the ST failed for the 2nd ECCS pump than from the time the 1st pump was tagged out for maintenance.

The 2nd part of B states you will loose SFP if the tie comes in outside the SDC loop valves, is this plausible?
5/21/10 Reviewed again with same result. Validation showed misses for A & B. No one chose C. May need new KA.

40 H X M U 218000K4.02 S Can ADS be armed at your site? The question as written does not meet the KA. The KA is for manual ignition of ADS logic. The question is asking about manual operation of the ADS SRV, which can always be accomplished and auto ADS logic.
5/21/10 This question will be moved to question 41. A new KA will be needed for this question.

5/21/10 Upon review with the licensee, this question is SAT.
44 F X N U/E 239002K2.01 S This question seems convoluted. Not all SRVs have 2 power supplies and not all SRVs have an automatic backup. Therefore, it appears that this could lead to an argument for multiple correct answers.

47 F 1 X B U 262001K5.02 S No plausibility reason given for an operator to possibly choose choices A, B, or D. D seems especially not plausible. This implies we could never operate a breaker (remotely or locally) on a loss of control power. When would a breaker trip open on a loss of control power?
The operator would have to loose sight of what control power is for to even consider this as an option. LOD=1 5/21/10 Review w/licensee. I will discuss their rationale for believing the question is SAT as is with the region and provide feedback.

G2.1.27 Part: The correct answer A is a subset issue. If the actual acceptance criteria are to maintain cladding temperature < 2200 degrees, then it is E also to maintain it < 2600 degrees (A).
67 F 2 X B S Change to 1800 oF. Its incorrect yet plausible because 1800 degrees is when DNB becomes significant.
