Ensure that at least two topics from every applicable K/A category are sampled within each tier of the RO and SRO-only outlines (i.e., except for one category in Tier 3 of the SRO-only outline, the Tier Totals in each K/A 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 K/A 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 K/As 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 K/A categories.
7.*
The generic (G) K/As in Tiers 1 and 2 shall be selected from Section 2 of the K/A 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 K/As.

SUMMARY
NRC #1 The crew will assume the watch at 100% power with no scheduled activities per IPO-003A, Power Operations.
The first event it is a high failure of TCOLD Temperature Instrument, TI-421A. Operator actions are per ABN-704, TC/N-16 Instrumentation Malfunction, and require stopping Control Rod motion and stabilizing Reactor Coolant System (RCS) temperature and Pressurizer level. The SRO will refer to Technical Specifications.
The next event is a Loss of Protection Bus IV1PC2. Crew actions are per ABN-603, Loss of a Protection or Instrument Bus, and include stabilizing the plant, restoring an alternate power source, and verification of instrument restoration. The SRO will refer to Technical Specifications.
The next event is initiated with Main Turbine high vibration. The crew enters ABN-401, Main Turbine Malfunction, which will require reducing load to 900 MWe. When the crew commences reducing load, Main Turbine vibration will improve over a 10 minute period.
When Main Turbine vibration is restored to normal, a Main Steam header leak will ramp in over 300 seconds. The crew should recognize the requirement to manually trip the Reactor. The crew will enter EOP-0.0A, Reactor Trip or Safety Injection. While performing the actions of EOP-0.0A, the RO will attempt to manually initiate both Trains of Safety Injection at CB-07; however, this task will be completed by the BOP at CB-02.
While performing actions in EOP-0.0A, the crew should recognize lowering Main Steam pressure with an associated Main Steam Isolation Signal. Steam Generator 1-03 Main Steam Isolation Valve HV-2335A will fail to automatically or manually close. The crew will transition from EOP-0.0A to EOP-2.0A, Faulted Steam Generator. When the Faulted Steam Generator (1-03) has been isolated, entry into EOS-1.1A, Terminate Safety Injection, is performed.
The scenario is complicated by Containment Spray Pump and a Residual Heat Removal Pump that fail to start upon initiation of the Safety Injection Sequencer. This scenario is terminated when the Faulted Steam Generator is isolated and the crew secures High Head Safety Injection.
Risk Significance:
Failure of risk important system prior to trip:
Loss of Inverter IV1PC2
Risk significant core damage sequence:
Main Steam Header Failure Main Turbine Vibration
Risk significant operator actions:
Restore Power to Protection Bus 1PC2 Manually Initiate Safety Injection Manually Start RHR Pump Manually Start Containment Spray Pump Isolate Faulted Steam Generator Page 2 of 6

SUMMARY
NRC #2 The crew will assume the watch at 72% power with no scheduled activities per IPO-003A, Power Operations. The Grid Controller has requested that power remain at this level due to transmission line overload until further notice.
The scenario begins with a recirculation of the Refueling Water Storage Tank per SOP-204A, Containment Spray System, following makeup to restore tank level. The Containment Spray Pump will remain operating during the scenario.
The first event is a failure of the Volume Control Tank Level Transmitter. The crew will reference annunciator ALM-0061A-4.5, VCT LEVEL LO, and ABN-105, Chemical and Volume Control System Malfunction, and establish an Alternate Operating Mode for the Reactor Makeup System.
When conditions are stable, the Atmospheric Relief Valve (ARV) on Steam Generator 1-04 will fail open. This event is recognized by a Reactor power increase, ARV Controller indicating 100% demand, and a Plant Computer System alarm. The BOP will place the affected Controller in MANUAL and close the ARV. ABN-709, Steam Line Pressure Instrument Malfunction, may be referenced.
When plant parameters are stable, a loss of the running Centrifugal Charging Pump will occur. The crew will enter ABN-105, Chemical and Volume Control System Malfunction, and perform actions to immediately restore Charging flow. The SRO will refer to Technical Specifications.
The next event is a Steam Generator tube leak of ~2.5 GPM. Crew actions are per ABN-106, High Secondary Activity. Given the size of the leak, a rapid power reduction will be performed. The SRO will refer to Technical Specifications.
When Technical Specifications are referenced and power has been reduced from 3% to 5%, a Steam Generator Tube Rupture occurs and leakage rises to 500 GPM. An uncontrolled loss of Pressurizer level will require a manual Reactor trip, initiation of Safety Injection, and entry into EOP-0.0A, Reactor Trip or Safety Injection. At Step 13, a transition to EOP-3.0A, Steam Generator Tube Rupture, will occur to isolate the ruptured Steam Generator. The event is complicated by a failure of Train A and B Containment Isolation Phase A.
The scenario is terminated when the ruptured Steam Generator is isolated, feedwater flow is properly aligned, and a Reactor Coolant System cooldown is completed.

SUMMARY
NRC #3 The crew will assume the watch with power at approximately 3% per IPO-002A, Plant Startup from Hot Standby. The crew will transfer Feedwater flow from the Auxiliary Feedwater System to the Main Feedwater System in preparation for raising power to 8%. This is followed by entry into SOP-304A, Auxiliary Feedwater System, Section 5.2, Shutdown and Standby of the Auxiliary Feedwater System.
When transfer of Feedwater has been completed, the crew will enter IPO-003A, Power Operations, Section 5.1, Warmup and Synchronization of the Turbine Generator and perform a power ascension using the Rod Control and Steam Dump Systems.
When power has been raised 3% to 5%, a Pressurizer Pressure Channel will fail low. Response is per ABN-705, Pressurizer Pressure Malfunction, Section 2.0, to ensure Pressurizer Heaters are controlled and Power Operated Relief Valves remain closed. The SRO will refer to Technical Specifications.
The next event is a Steam Generator Level Transmitter failure. Actions are per ABN-710, Steam Generator Level Instrumentation Malfunction. The BOP will be required to take manual control of the Feedwater Bypass Control Valve and then select an alternate controlling channel to return the Feedwater System to automatic control. The SRO will refer to Technical Specifications.
When Technical Specifications are addressed, a Reactor Coolant Pump will trip. Although an automatic Reactor trip is not generated, the RO should recognize the requirement to manually trip the Reactor. An attempt will be made to manually trip the Reactor via the normal Trip Switches and by deenergizing both buses supplying the Control Element Drive Mechanism Motor Generators. Once it is determined that neither of these methods have been successful, the crew will transition from EOP-0.0A, Reactor Trip or Safety Injection, to FRS-0.1A, Response to Nuclear Power Generation/ATWT.
When operators are dispatched, emergency boration is initiated, and the Reactor is locally tripped, the crew will transition from FRS-0.1A to EOP-0.0A. After it is determined that Safety Injection is not required the crew will enter EOS-0.1A, Reactor Trip Response and perform actions to restore Charging and Letdown flow. When in EOS-0.1A, a Centrifugal Charging Pump will trip and must be restarted to continue emergency boration.
The scenario is terminated when IPO-009A, Plant Equipment Shutdown Following a Trip, is referenced while in EOS-0.1A.
