Ensure that at least two topics from every applicable KIA category are sampled within each tier of the RO and SRO-only outlines (Le., except for one category in Tier 3 of the SRO-only outline, the "Tier Totals" in each KIA category shall not be less than two).
2. The point total for each group and tier in the proposed outline must match that specified in the table. The final point total for each group and tier may deviate by +/-1 from that specified in the table based on NRC revisions. The final RO exam must total 75 pOints and the SRO-only exam must total 25 points.
3. Systems/evolutions within each group are identified on the associated outline; systems or evolutions that do not apply at the facility should be deleted and justified; operationally important, site-specific systems/evolutions that are not included on the outline should be added.

Refer to Section D.1.b of ES-401 for guidance regarding the elimination of inappropriate KIA statements.

4. Select topics from as many systems and evolutions as possible; sample every system or evolution in the group before selecting a second topic for any system or evolution.
5. Absent a plant-specific priority, only those KlAs having an importance rating (IR) of 2.5 or higher shall be selected. Use the RO and SRO ratings for the RO and SRO-only portions, respectively.
6. Select SRO topics for Tiers 1 and 2 from the shaded systems and KIA categories.

7.* The generic (G) KlAs in Tiers 1 and 2 shall be selected from Section 2 of the KIA Catalog, but the topics must be relevant to the applicable evolution or system. Refer to Section D.1.b of ES 401 for the applicable KlAs.

B. On the following pages, enter the KIA numbers, a brief description of each topic, the topics' importance ratings (IRs) for the applicable license level, and the pOint totals (#) for each system and category. Enter the group and tier totals for each category in the table above; if fuel handling equipment is sampled in other than Category A2 or G* on the SRO-only exam, enter it on the left side of Column A2 for Tier 2, Group 2 (Note #1 does not apply). Use duplicate pages for RO and SRO-only exams.

9. For Tier 3, select topics from Section 2 of the KIA catalog, and enter the KIA numbers, descriptions, IRs, and point totals (#) on Form ES-401-3. Limit SRO selections to KlAs that are linked to 10 CFR 55.43.

JPM JPM Description S-1 A plant startup is in progress with reactor power just below the APRM downscale setpoint (2%). The Control Room Supervisor (CRS) has directed the Operator at the Controls (OATC) to transfer the Mode Switch to RUN lAW OP 0105, "Reactor Operations", phase 20, step 10a -7 1Og. This involves withdrawing control rods to clear APRM downscales, transferring the mode switch to RUN, withdrawing IRM detectors, and switching recorders.

S-2 The crew has entered OT 3115, "Reactor Pressure Transients", due to a failed EPR. Direction has been given to perform OT 3115, step 2 to swap pressure regulation from the EPR to the MPR. Once the operator lowers pressure back to it's pre-transient pressure, the MPR will fail requiring the operator to take the immediate action of scramming the reactor due to a failed EPR AND MPR.

S-3 A plant startup is in progress. While operating at 57% RTP (OP 0105, "Reactor Operations", Phase 4B, step 12), the operator is directed to perform MSIV Full Closure Timing and RPS Relay Actuation Functional Test lAW OP 4113, Section "A". Steps 1 through 5 are complete. This is an alternate path JPM as follows: the closure time for MS-86A will be UNSAT (step 9.a.3) requiring the operator to suspend further MSIV testing and close MS-80A.

S-4 While operating at rated power, a trip of the "A" CRo Pump has resulted in the crew entering OPON-3145 01, "Loss of CRo Regulating Function". The operator has been directed to start the "B" CRo Pump to restore CRo Hydraulics lAW OPON-3145-01, step 3.5.

S-5 While operating at rated power, the operator is directed to perform the monthly Emergency Governor Test lAW OP 0150, "Conduct of Operations and Operator Rounds" VYOPF 0150.08 (Operations Department Monthly Task Performance Listing), and OP 4160, "Turbine Generator Surveillance", Section "G". This is an alternate path JPM as follows: the Emergency Governor will not reset requiring a second attempt at resetting it. After the second attempt is unsuccessful, the trip/test switch is left in the lockout position and Maintenance contacted.

S-6 While operating at rated power, the Control Room receives annunciator CRP 9-5-H-1, "RX BLDG/REFUEL FLR CH A RAD HI". The operator is directed to verify the validity of the alarm and if necessary confirm/initiate the automatic actions associated with the Alarm Response Sheet (ARS). These actions include verifying Standby Gas Treatment (SBGT) automatically started, a full Group III Primary Containment Isolation System (PCIS) isolation occurred, and Reactor Building (RB) Ventilation isolated.

This is an alternate path .IPM as follows: Reactor Building ventilation failed to isolate and the operator is expected to take action lAW EN-OP-115, "Conduct of Operations", section 5.3[21.

S-7 A plant startup is in progress. While operating at 86% RTP, the operator is directed to start the "B" RFP lAW OP 0105, "Reactor Operations", Phase 4B, step 22. This is an alternate path JPM as follows: the discharge valve strokes closed following pump start. The operator is expected to trip the "B" RFP lAW OP 0105 Phase 4B caution for step 22 (If minimum flow path or normal flow cannot be established, the pump shall be immediately secured).

S-8 While the plant was operating at rated power, an electrical fault on Bus 3 resulted in the loss of Buses 3 and 8. The crew has entered ON 3171, "Loss of Bus 3". The operator is directed to cross tie buses 9 and 8 lAW ON 3171, operator action step 4 and OP 2143, "480 and Lower Voltage AC System", Appendix "C",

Energizing 480Vac Bus 8 (Dead Bus) From Bus 9".

P-l The Control Room has been abandoned and actions of OP 3126, "Shutdown Using Alternate Shutdown Methods" have been taken. The Control Room Supervisor has directed you to shutdown the "A" Emergency Diesel Generator locally lAW OP 3126, Appendix 19, step 19 using OP 2126 "Emergency Diesel Generators", section "0".

P-2 While operating at rated power, an electrical ATWS occurred resulting in the failure of all control rods to insert. The crew has entered EOP-2, ""ATWS RPV Control". The operator has been directed to vent the scram air header lAW OE 3107, "EOP/SAG Appendices", Appendix "0", "Manual Isolation and Venting of the Scram Air Header".

P-3 While operating at rated power, spurious electrical trips have resulted in the trips of the Reactor Protection System (RPS) MG set output breaker and RPS Power Protection Panels PP-A-1 and PP-A-2. The operator has been directed to reset the RPS Power Protection Panel trips lAW OP 2134, "Reactor Protection System", section "F".

I Appendix D Scenario Outline Form ES-D-1 Facility: VERMONT YANKEE Scenario No.: 1 Op Test No.: VY 2010 Examiners: Operators: CRS OATC BOP-ff Initial Conditions: A reactor power reduction is in progress to support planned maintenance on the "C Reactor Feedwater Pump seal and electrical grid maintenance.

Turnover: The crew is directed to continue with a power reduction to 80% RTP to support planned maintenance on the "C" Reactor Feedwater Pump seal. The seal has minor leakage and there are no operational restrictions on operating with the current leakage. From there, maintain 80% RTP until the maintenance is complete and RFP restored to service. The plant is expected to remain at 80% RTP for -48 hours to support maintenance activities.

Critical Tasks: 1. When PCIS Group 1, 2, 3, 5, or 6 fails to isolate (2 valves in PC IS Group 3 for this scenario) with a leak present, initiate PCIS Group manually. STANDARD:

Leak or release terminated within 10 minutes of receipt of the auto isolation signal.

2. When torus pressure exceeds the suppression chamber spray initiation pressure, initiate drywell containment spray while in the safe region of the drywell spray initiation limit. STANDARD: spray the drywell within 10 minutes of exceeding a Torus pressure of 10 psig AFTER power has been restored to Bus 3 AND RPV level not an overriding priority.

I Appendix D Scenario Outline Form ES-D-1 Vermont Yankee 2010 NRC Scenario #1 The crew takes the watch with the reactor operating at 90% RTP. They will continue a power reduction to 80% and remove the "C" Reactor Feedwater Pump (RFP) lAW OP-0105, "Reactor Operations". This will be done to perform corrective maintenance on the 'c" RFP.

The crew will respond to annunciator 3-J-9, "RHRlCS A BUS/LOGIC FAIL".

When an operator is sent to investigate, it will be determined that DC-2C circuit breaker #2 was found tripped. As a result, the CRS will enter TS LCO 3.5.A.6 (24 hour2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> cold shutdown).

The crew will respond to an inadvertent initiation of Reactor Core Isolation Cooling lAW OT 3110, "Positive Reactivity Insertion". After verifying the requirements of EN-OP-115, "Conduct of Operations", the crew can override the system by tripping RCIC. The CRS will determine that RCIC is INOPERABLE and enter TS LCO 3.5.G.2 (14 days). RCIC will remain AVAILABLE for the remainder of the scenario.

The crew will respond to a downscale failure of the Steam Flow Summer. The failure will result in RPV water level lowering and require the OATC to take manual control of the FWLC system to restore level lAW OT 3113, "Reactor Low Level" and transfer the FWLC System to Single Element.

The crew will respond to a small leak in the DrywelllAW OT 3111' "High Drywell Pressure. Efforts to control drywell pressure will be unsuccessful, and the crew will insert a manual scram prior to reaching the high Drywell pressure setpoint.

Entry into EOP-1, "RPV Control" and EOP-3, "Primary Containment Control", will be required.

After the RPV water level band has been given to the OATC, the crew will respond to the loss of Bus 1 and the loss of ALL feedwater lAW OPOT-3169-01, "Loss of Bus 1". The "B" EDG will not start automatically or manually due to an air start solenoid failure. lAW EOP-1, RPV level control will be shifted to alternate preferred injection systems (Table "C").

As the water level control issues are being addressed, the steam leak will become larger requiring additional actions in EOP-3. Two PCIS Group 3 valves will fail SGT-6 and AC-6B) requiring manual operation to shut them with a leak in containment (CRITICAL TASK). As Torus pressure rises to 10 psig, action will be taken to initiate Drywell Sprays (CRITICAL TASK). To do this power will have to be restored to Bus 3 from the Vernon Tie for the "B"/"D" RHRSW pumps.

I Appendix D Scenario Outline Form ES-D-1 Facility: VERMONT YANKEE Scenario No.: 2 Op Test No.: VY 2010 Examiners: Operators: CRS OATC BOP-Initial Conditions: The plant is operating at 100% RTP. RHR-39A (TORUS SPRAY/CLG RHR) valve motor actuator is being repaired (30-day LCO entered 1 day ago per TS 3.5.B.1).

Turnover: Maintain 100% RTP in conjunction with performing "OncelWeek Pump Performance Testing" lAW OP 4160, 'Turbine Generator Surveillance", section B.1.c -7 B.1.f.

Local testing is not desired. Sections B.1.a and B.1.b have been completed.

Critical Tasks: 1. During an ATWS with conditions met to perform power/level control TERMINATE AND PREVENT INJECTION into the RPV using appendix GG, until conditions are met to re-establish injection. STANDARD: completion of Terminate and prevent injection lAW OE 3107 Appendix GG within 7 minutes of loss of forced circulation.

2. With a reactor scram required and the reactor not shutdown, TAKE ACTION TO REDUCE POWER by injecting boron and/or inserting control rods, to prevent exceeding the primary containment design limits. STANDARD: Actions taken within 15 minutes of the scram failure to implement appropriate appendices and/or inject SLC (Implement Appendix "G" in this scenario). Only one method needs to be used. The method must result in successful control rod insertion or SLC injection (Control rod insertion in this scenario).

The crew will respond to a loss of OC-2AS. The CRS will take actions lAW ON 3163, "Loss of OC-2AS" and enter required TRM and TS LCOs (section 3.10)

Shortly after the "A" EOG control power has been transferred to its alternate source, a failure of the 'A' feedwater regulating valve controller will occur. The crew will respond lAW OT 3114 (Reactor High Level) and place the "A" FRV Controller in manual control to block the auto signal failure.

Once level has been restored to its pre-transient value, Main Condenser air in leakage will result in rising condenser backpressure and entry into OT 3120.

While attempts are made to determine the cause, a power reduction will be ordered lAW OT 3120. The leak will be slow enough to perform a controlled power reduction in order to get a reactivity manipulation.

After Main Condenser backpressure is stabilized, the crew will respond to a loss of Bus 8. SBGT "A" fan will fail to auto-initiate upon receipt of the Group III isolation signal. The crew will backup the Group III isolation and initiate SBGT "A". Review of Tech Specs will reveal a 24-hour shutdown LCO due to inadequate RHR torus cooling/spray capability and inadequate LPCI (loss of emergency bus 8 will also get the plant into a 24 hour2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> LCO).

Once the 24-hour shutdown LCO has been determined, the "0" APRM fails upscale, it will result in a trip of RPS Channel "B" which will fail and subsequently, an ATWS will result. The manual scram push buttons will only insert control rods partially and ARIIRPT pushbuttons will be used unsuccessfully. The crew will be evaluated controlling and shutting down the plant in accordance with EOP-1 and EOP-2. lAW EOP-2, "ATWS RPV Control", actions are taken to insert control rods and/or initiate SLC (CRITICAL TASK), and terminate and prevent injection (CRITICAL TASK). When SLC is initiated, the Group V isolation will fail and CU 18 and 68 will fail to isolate (CU-15 lost power and tripped the RWCU pump during the loss of Bus 8). After three minutes of operation, the "A" SLC pump will trip resulting in no SLC injection. PCV-CRO-22 will initially fail to manually close resulting in the crew having to insert individual control rods using OE 3107, Appendix "G". After several control rods are inserted, the valve can be opened to insert all control rods.

I Appendix D Scenario Outline Form ES-D-1 Facility: VERMONT YANKEE Scenario No.: 3 Op Test No.: VY 2010 Examiners: Operators: CRS OATC BOP-Initial Conditions: The plant is operating at 100% RTP. A seven day LCO is in effect for the "B" train of Standby Gas Treatment (SBGT) being INOPERABLE (TS 3.7.B.3.a)

Turnover: Maintain 100% RTP in conjunction with performing OP 0150, Section E, "Operations Department Weekly and Monthly Task Performance Listing", surveillance of swapping the TBCCW and RBCCW pumps lAW RP 4183 and OP 2182. VYOPF 0150.08 will be documented when the surveillances are completed. The TBCCW Heat Exchangers have been swapped and temperatures have stabilized.

Critical Tasks: 1. With a Primary system discharging into Secondary Containment and area radiation/temperature/water levels exceed Maximum Safe Operating Levels in more than one area, initiate an RPV-ED. STANDARD: Initiate RPV-ED within 5 minutes of area radiation/temperature/water levels exceeding Maximum Safe Operating Levels in more than one area.

2. When a leak is present, dispatch personnel to manually isolate associated PCIS valves that have failed to isolate automatically and manually from the Control Room. STANDARD: Direct I&C/Maintenance/AOs to manually isolate PCIS valves within 15 minutes of receipt of the isolation signal. (Environmental considerations and power source may affect the time standard for this critical task).

I Appendix D Scenario Outline Form ES-D-1 Vermont Yankee 2010 NRC Scenario #3 The crew will be directed to perform the OP 0150, Section E, "Operations Department Weekly and Monthly Task Performance Listing", surveillance of swapping the TBCCW and RBCCW pumps lAW RP 4183 and OP 2182. VYOPF 0150.08 will be documented when the surveillances are completed. The swap of the TBCCW heat exchangers will be turned over as being completed with all temperatures stabilized.

The crew will respond to 4-M-3, "DWL SUMP VLV CLOSED". After it is reported the cause of the valves closing is a blown fuse, The CRS will enter TS LCOs 3.6.C.2 (7 days) and 3.7.D.2/4.7.D.2 (close and deactivate a valve in the line containing the INOPERABLE PCIS valve and verify the line is isolated every 31 days).

The crew will respond to a loss of the inboard "A" Recirculation Pump seal lAW ON 3142. This will involve monitoring temperatures and pressures for the failed seal.

The crew will respond to a loss of Bus 7. The loss of Bus 7 will result in the trip of the "B" Recirculation Pump requiring entry into OT 3118, Recirculation Pump trip. The crew will take actions including a power reduction to 40-45% RTP. The CRS will address single loop operation Technical Specifications.

Following the power reduction, the crew will respond to a trip of the "A" Stator Water Cooling pump. They must realize that this will result in a complete loss of Stator Water Cooling. If actions are not taken in a timely manner (1 minute), the turbine will automatically trip. Direction will be provided by the CRS to manually trip the turbine and insert a manual scram within 1 minute of the "An Stator Water Cooling pump trip. A failure of the automatic (in the event the crew does not trip the turbine within 1 minute) and manual scram pushbuttons will require the OATC to initiate ARI/RPT. All Control Rods will insert and the crew will address reactor plant parameters in EOP-1.

Following the immediate actions of OT 3100 and the order to control plant pressure and level in band, a break will occur in the HPCI Steam Line upstream of HPCI-14. Rising temperatures in the Reactor Building will result in entry in EOP-4, "Secondary Containment Control". The PCIS Group VI automatic isolation signal will fail as well as manual attempts to shut the valves from the Control Room. The crew will have to take action to contact support personnel to shut the valves locally within 15 minutes in an attempt to shut the PCIS valves with an automatic isolation signal failure (CRITICAL TASK). Bypass valves will fail to open at 600 psig to allow an RPV-ED to be evaluated.

As EOP-4 is entered, once the first area reaches its Maximum Safe Operating Limit, the steam leak will get larger. Once temperatures reach the Maximum Safe Operating Limit in more than one area (RB 252' and 280' elevations), and RPV-Emergency Depressurization will be performed lAW EOP-5, "RPV-ED" within 5 minutes (CRITICAL TASK).

I Appendix D Scenario Outline Form ES-D-1 Facility: VERMONT YANKEE Scenario No.: 4 Op Test No.: VY 2010 SPARE Examiners: Operators: CRS OATC BOP-Initial Conditions: Power is -1 % with a reactor startup in progress.

Turnover: OP 0105, "Reactor Operations", is complete thru Phase 2.C. The crew will be directed to perform a Turbine Chest warm-up lAW OP 0105 Phase 2.0. Step 1 and continue Reactor Startup (60 to 80 degree/hour heat up rate).

Critical Tasks: 1. When torus level cannot be maintained above 7 ft, perform RPVemergency depressurization. STANDARD: Initiate RPV-ED such that RPV pressure is < 50 psig when Torus level reaches 5.5 ft.

2. During an ATWS with Emergency Depressurization required, terminate and prevent injection into the RPV (using OE 3107, "EOP/SAG Appendices", Appendix GG) until conditions are met to re-establish injection. STANDARD: Terminate and prevent injection lAW Appendix GG such that no system other than SLC, CRD, and/or RCIC is/are injecting during the RPV-ED.

I Appendix D Scenario Outline Form ES-D-1 Vermont Yankee 2010 NRC Scenario #4 The crew will initiate Turbine Chest Warming and continue with the reactor startup, withdrawing control rods to continue with the power ascension. As the startup progresses, IRM "F" will fail upscale resulting in a rod withdrawal block and a half scram, requiring the crew to evaluate Tech Specs, and bypass the failed IRM.

The crew will be evaluated responding to a seismic event that causes a leak in the SLC tank and a trip of the running TBCCW/failure of the standby TBCCW pump to auto start. The actions of OP 3127, "Natural Phenomena" and EN-OP 115, "Conduct of Operations"/OT 3165, "Loss of TBCCW", will be taken to respond to the seismic event and failure of the standby pump to start. Technical Specifications will be consulted, revealing a 24-hour shutdown LCO (TS section 3.4). Also, the Gland Seal Regulator will fail closed requiring the crew to open the bypass valve lAW the ARS to maintain condenser backpressure.

A seismic aftershock will occur resulting in the Loss of Normal Power (LNP) and a break in the weld of the 'A' RHR suction line to the torus. The crew will be evaluated responding to the seismic event (OP 3127), Loss of Normal Power (OT 3122, "Loss of Normal Power") and failure of the "B" Emergency Diesel Generator breaker to automatically close. The breaker will be able to be closed by the operator in the Control Room. A failure of both automatic and manual scram capability exists. ARIIRPT initiation will result in successful rod insertion of all rods but 4 control rods which are stuck out.

A loss of high pressure injection from Feed and Condensate will result in direction to control level with EOP-2 Table "H" systems: Based on the low power history, the CRS may direct the use of RCIC or maximizing CRD. HPCI should not be needed During the RPV-ED, an alternate injection system (EOP-2, Table "J") may be required although maximizing CRD flow may be enough to support rapid depressurization based on low power history.

Once the lowering torus level is noted, the crew will be evaluated on entry into and execution of EOP-3, "Primary Containment Control" and EOP-4, "Secondary Containment Control". The crew will also enter ON 3158, "Reactor Building High LeveIITemperature", due to high RB water level. Because of the size of the leak, the crew will perform an RPV Emergency Depressurization (CRITICAL TASK).

With an RPV-ED required during an ATWS condition, the crew will be required to terminate and prevent injection prior to the RPV-ED (CRITICAL TASK).
