STP September 2011 Written Exam Outline Generation The South Texas Project used a software product called NRC KA Exam Generation Program (NKEG) (version 1.1) to generate the Reactor Operator and Senior Reactor Operator written exam outline. This software is authored by Westinghouse and is distributed through the PWR Owners Group.

In discussion with Paul Hippley, the PWR Owners Group representative for this software, he confirmed the software does fulfill the criteria for randomly and systematically selecting KAs for the written exam outline in accordance with NUREG 1021, ES-401. For example, the program will:

o Ensure all systems are selected for use on the outline before selecting a system again.

o Generate a replacement KA (if a KA is rejected) using the same systematic and random sampling process, thus ensuring all systems are selected at least once before a system is selected again.

Refer to Form ES-401-4 for a summary of rejected KAs.

KAs pre-screened prior to outline generation are attached

STP LOT-18 NRC Scenario #1 Description Initial Conditions: The plant is at 75% power. The crew is at step 7.44 of POP03-ZG-0005, Plant Startup to 100%, with instructions to raise power to 88-90% at 10%/hr.

Event 1: The crew is to raise power to 88-90% using POP03-ZG-0005. This is a normal evolution with no malfunctions.

Event 2: Controlling PZR level Channel LT-0465 fails high. The crew will respond using POP04-RP-0002, Loss Of Automatic Pressurizer Level Control, to select an alternate channel and stabilize the plant. The SRO will address Tech Spec implications.

Event 3: Feedwater header pressure PT-0557 fails to an intermediate position causing all Turbine Driven Steam Generator Feedwater Pumps to slow down. The crew will respond and stabilize the plant using POP04-FW-0002, Steam Generator Feed Pump Trip.

Event 4: After the crew has stabilized steam generator levels, PZR PORV seat leakage will occur. The crew will respond using POP04-RC-0003, Excessive RCS Leakage, to isolate the leaking PORV and stabilize the plant. The SRO will address Tech Spec implications.

Event 5: After the crew has addressed PZR PORV Seat Leakage Tech Spec, a 250 gpm SGTR will develop on SG 1B. The crew may initially respond using POP04-RC-0004, Steam Generator Tube Leakage, however, since the tube rupture is greater than 200 gpm, the crew may go right to POP05-EO-EO00, Reactor Trip or SI, and then to POP05-EO-EO30, Steam Generator Tube Rupture.

Event 6: When the Reactor is Tripped, 13.8KV Standby BUS 1G will LOCKOUT with a failure of the Train B Sequencer. Standby DG #12 will automatically start but the crew will have to manually start ESF equipment on Train B. This will be performed using Addendum #5 of POP05-EO-EO00.

Termination: The scenario will terminate after the crew performs a RCS depressurization in POP05-EO-EO30.

Critical Tasks:

  • Manually starts ECW Pump 1B prior to completing Addendum #5 of POP05-EO-EO00 and prior to ESF DG #12 tripping.
  • Correctly determine target CET temperature and maintain CET temperatures less than the target CET temperature established for the RCS cooldown in POP05-EO-EO30.

Tornado Watch is in effect. 0POP04-ZO-0002, Addendum 1 has been completed to step 10.

Management has made the decision to hold reactor power at 48% until a current line of thunderstorms moves through the area. Start Train A and secure Train C Control Room HVAC for surveillance testing later in the shift.

Event 1: Train A CRE HVAC Supply Fan will develop a sheared shaft after starting. The crew will respond to the POP09 for the associated trouble alarm. The POP09 will have the crew secure Train A CRE HVAC. The SRO will address Tech Spec implications.

Event 2: SGFPT #12 trips with the SU SGFP #14 failing to start. The crew will respond and stabilize the plant using POP04-FW-0002, Steam Generator Feed Pump Trip.

Event 3: CCW Pump 1A trips and CCW Pump 1C fails to auto start. The POP09 for CCW Pump 1A trip will have the crew ensure that CCW Pump 1C has started. Depending on the CCW pressure perturbation, the crew may have to also respond to a loss of CCW to the RCP Thermal Barriers. The SRO will address Tech Spec implications.

Event 4: After the crew has addressed CCW Pump Tech Spec, a Main Turbine trip will occur.

The crew will respond and stabilize the plant using POP04-TM-0003, Main Turbine Trip Below P-9.

Event 5: When the crew places Steam Dumps in the Steam Pressure Mode per POP04-TM-0003, Main Turbine Trip Below P-9, a 300 gpm SBLOCA will develop on LOOP B.

The crew may initially respond using POP04-RC-0003, Excessive RCS Leakage, however, since the leak is greater than 200 gpm, the crew may go right to POP05-EO-EO00, Reactor Trip or SI, and then to POP05-EO-EO10, Loss of Reactor or Secondary Coolant. The leak will rise to a LBLOCA after the crew opens the instrument air OCIV in POP05-EO-EO10, requiring the crew to enter and perform the actions of POP05-EO-FRZ1, Response to High Containment Pressure.

Event 6: Feedwater Isolation will fail to automatically actuate after receiving the SI signal. The operator will have to manually align feedwater using Addendum #5 of POP05-EO-EO00.

Termination: The scenario will be terminated after the crew manually starts 2 CS Pumps per POP05-EO-FRZ1, Response to High Containment Pressure.

Critical Tasks:

  • Depressurize intact SGs to less than 1000 psig within 45 minutes of the initiation of the SBLOCA.
  • Manually start CS Pumps to address RCB pressure prior to exiting POP05-EO-FRZ1.

STP LOT-18 NRC Scenario #3 Description Initial Conditions: 100% Power and Stable. LPHD Pump #13 and RCFC 12C are OOS. LPHD Pump #13 has been repaired and is ready to be placed back in service.

Event 1: The crew will start LPHD Pump #13 and place in service. The crew will then proceed to secure Condensate Pump #13 as it is no longer needed. This is a normal evolution with no malfunctions.

Event 2: 3 minutes after LPHD Pump #13 is placed in auto, RCFC Fan 11A will have a sheared shaft. A Low Fan DP Alarm will have the crew secure RCFC Fan 11A and evaluate starting the only other available RCFC Fan 11C. Containment Pressure will rise and may bring in an RCB Pressure High Alarm if RCFC Fan 11C is not started. The SRO will address Tech Spec implications.

Event 3: After addressing RCFC Fan Tech Specs, PT-0505, a Turbine Impulse Pressure Channel, will fail low. The crew will respond using 0POP04-TM-0004, Failure of Turbine Impulse Pressure Transmitter (PT-505/506). The SRO will address Tech Spec implications.

Event 4: After addressing Tech Specs for PT-0505 failure, a CVCS charging line leak will develop in Containment. The crew will respond using 0POP04-RC-0003, Excessive RCS Leakage, and will be able to identify and isolate the leak.

Event 5: 2 minutes after the charging line is isolated, the main generator output breaker will open causing a total loss of load. An automatic reactor trip will likely occur since steam dumps are in steam pressure mode due to the PT-505 failure. The crew will respond using POP05-EO-EO00, Reactor Trip or Safety Injection Event 6: 10 seconds after the reactor trip, a safety valve on SG 1A will fail open (due to pressure spike caused by loss of load), resulting in a faulted steam generator. The crew will respond using POP05-EO-EO20, Faulted Steam Generator Isolation.

Event 7: On the SI, Phase A on Train A will fail to actuate and can not be manually actuated.

The crew will respond using Addendums 1 and 5 of 0POP05-EO-EO00, Reactor Trip or SI, which will require manually isolating any penetrations that are normally isolated by the Phase A signal.

Termination: The scenario will be terminated when POP05-EO-EO20 is exited.

Critical tasks:

  • Isolate feed and steam lines to steam generator 1A prior to exiting POP05-EO-EO20.

SG 1B LT-0528 (CH 3) has been inoperable for the past 4 days and is in the tripped condition as required by Tech Specs.

Event 1: Controlling PZR Pressure Channel PT-0457 fails low. Operators will take action in accordance with POP04-RP-0001, Loss of Automatic Pressurizer Pressure Control, to stabilize the plant and select an alternate channel. The SRO will address Tech Spec implications.

Event 2: SG 1A Steam Pressure for the controlling steam flow channel, PT-0514, fails high.

Operators will stabilize the plant and select an alternate channel in accordance with POP04-FW-0001, Loss of Steam Generator Level Control. The SRO will address Tech Spec implications.

Event 3: Lockout of 4.16KV bus E1A. The crew will stabilize the plant and take action in accordance with POP04-AE-0001, First Response To Loss Of Any Or All 13.8KV Or 4.16KV Bus. The next event will automatically occur 8 minutes after ESF DG #11 is placed in Pull-To-Stop.

Event 4/5: Inadvertent Feedwater Isolation occurs when a 2nd Hi-Hi level bistable trips on SG 1B. A reactor trip occurs, however the main turbine fails to automatically trip. The crew will perform the actions of POP05-EO-EO00, Reactor Trip or Safety Injection, trip the main turbine and stabilize the plant.

Event 6: Upon start, AFW Pump #14 trips on overspeed. AFW Pump #13 trips on overcurrent 3 minutes after start. This creates a loss of Heat Sink condition. When directed by the EOP to implement Functional Restoration Procedures, the crew will transition to POP05-EO-FRH1, Response to Loss Of Secondary Heat Sink, to address the loss of heat sink condition.

Termination: The scenario will terminate after feed and bleed is established in POP05-EO-FRH1 (completion of step 13).

Critical Tasks:

  • Manually trips the main turbine prior to transition out of POP05-EO-EO00.
  • Establishes feed and bleed of the RCS prior to transition out of POP05-EO-FRH1.

STP LOT-18 NRC Scenario BU Description Initial Conditions: 75% power and holding for completion of FWBP work to correct a common mode motor problem. Circulating Water Pump #11 and Containment Spray Pump A are out of service for maintenance. The crew is directed to start FWBP #13 and secure FWBP #11 to allow maintenance on the last FWBP motor.

Event 1: The crew will start FWBP #13 and secure FWBP #11 in accordance with POP02-FW-0001, Main Feedwater. This is a normal evolution with no malfunctions.

Event 2: After FWBP #11 is secured, ECW Pump A trips and the standby train does not automatically start. The crew will use the annunciator response and normal operating procedures to place the standby train in service and properly remove the tripped train from service. The SRO will address Tech Spec implications.

Event 3: After ECW Tech Specs have been addressed, the controlling level channel on SG C will fail low. The crew will perform the actions of POP04-FW-0001, Loss of Steam Generator Level Control, to stabilize the plant and place an alternate channel in service. The SRO will address Tech Spec implications.

Event 4: After Tech Specs have been addressed for the SG level channel failure, the Iso-phase cooling trouble alarm will be received. Use of the annunciator response and investigation by the local operator will reveal failure of both fans requiring a fast load reduction in accordance with POP04-TM-0005, Fast Load Reduction.

Event 5: After the crew has stabilized the plant following the fast load reduction, a sheared shaft on RCP B will occur causing an automatic reactor trip. The crew will respond using POP05-EO-EO00, Reactor Trip or Safety Injection and transition to POP05-EO-ES01, Reactor Trip Response.

Event 6: Following the reactor trip, the operators will notice 2 rods stuck partially out of the core. The determination will be made that the reactor is tripped in E0, however, ES01 will required initiation of emergency boration to account for the loss of negative reactivity.

Event 7: 3 minutes after the emergency borate valve is opened, a loss of offsite power will occur that results in a Loss of All AC Power and requiring entry into POP05-EO-EC00, Loss of All AC Power. EC00 has instructions for energizing one 4KV ESF bus from the Emergency Transformer which will be successful.

Termination: The scenario will be terminated after the crew energizes a 4KV bus from the emergency transformer in EC00.

Critical tasks:

  • Manually control SG C level such that a manual or auto reactor trip does not occur.
  • Following the reactor trip, initiate emergency boration prior to exiting ES01.
  • Energize a 4KV ESF bus from the Emergency Transformer prior to exiting EC00.
