[Refer to Section 0 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 (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 (I.e., clues, specific determiners, phrasing, length, etc).

The answer choices are a collection of unrelated truelfalse 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 (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 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 0.2.1.
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?

S. At a minimum, explain any *U" ratings (e.g., how the Appendix B psychometric attributes are not being met).

HISTORICAL INFO ON PAST SCENARIOS WAS FOUND IN QC SIM PPC Work Against: N Name: TRNG- SIMULATOR PPC DATA RETENTION Equipment Location: PLC Simulator Required Information Condition

Description:

On 03-30-12, the simulator IT group was notified of a condition that exists at Clinton Power Station.

Historical information for a training scenario was found while using the Simulator Plant Process Computer (PPC). It was determined that the historical data in the Simulator PPC was not being erased when Initial Conditions were reset, the file was being appended.

Quad Cities IT SAM personnel notified the Quad Cities OTM of the possible condition existing with QC simulator PPC.

Quad Cities simulator IT and an Operations instructor were dispatched to verify the configuration of Quad Cities simulator PPC. They found that the PPC SOE (Sequence of Events) message log file does not get cleared out upon IC reset The SOE message file continues to accumulate information, up to its size limit, and then it overwrites old data.

A similar condition exists at other MW Exelon plants.

Immediate actions taken: 1. The Quad Cities Training Director and Corporate Operations Training were notified immediately after the condition was confirmed at QCNPS.

2. QCNPS has removed the file that contained historical data from prior scenarios that dated back to 02 06-2012.
3. A procedure change has been developed by Quad Cities Operations Training and Simulator IT group for steps to manually perform this action of deleting files. File removal method developed has been tested successfully. These changes are needed until an automatic removal method is developed and installed.
4. TQ-AA-201 reviewed by Training management, initial review determined no indication of exam compromise.

Recommendation for action: 1. Operations Training perform adequate procedure changes to TQ-AA-201-0113, Simulator Examination Security Actions Checklist that will remove saved PPC SOE files after exam material has http://eamgenco.ceco.com/cap/servletiOriginatorServlet 4/1/2012

Exelon Nuclear Issue Entry Page 2 of2 '

been exposed in the simulator until automated method has been developed, installed, and tested at QCNPS simulator.

The PPC regenerates this file for each scenario and it must be removed manually after each exam until automated.

2. Simulator Corp IT develop an automated method of ensuring the historical files are deleted upon simulator reset and promulgate to Exelon sites affected.
3. Training to conduct Work Group Evaluation to assess impact on exam security.
4. OTM to brief all Operations Training Instructors on this issue.

QCNPS White Paper on Exam Security Concerns wrt PPC SOE

[IR #1348733]

(11 :20 AM, 4/1112)

Condition

Description:

Clinton simulator recently found (11 :53 AM on Friday, 3/30112) that "the PPC SOE (Sequence of Events) message log file docs not get cleared out upon IC reset, .... The SOE message file continues to accumulate information, up to its size limit, then it overwrites old data."

The issue is that, normally, an IC reset is expected to clear out all old data. If not, after an exam scenario, old data could be accessed in the system by going to message retrieval and looking for older data. This has exam security ramifications that must be explored.

Actions Taken:

1. Clinton Simulator BSC Guy notified other BSC personnel (including Willie Hemm at QCNPS) via e-mail at 1153 AM, 3/30112.
2. Willie Hemm notifies QC Sim Coordinator and IT SAM Guy (Lechmaier and Baker) by forwarding message at 11 :58 AM, 3/30112.
3. OTM at QCNPS notified of issue that could impact exam security at 1:03 PM, 3/30112. Condition verified to exist at QCNPS.
4. Notifications escalate. Clinton had notified Snook. Pannell notifies Quick.

Pannell sends e-mail to Moser who is in Ops Performance Conference with Cantera and Kennett Square which also involves Ludlam and Coon.

5. Fleet Conference calls abound on the evening of Friday, 3/30/12.
6. Clinton documented the issue in IR 1348127 in which they stated that they assessed the issue for exam compromise and determined none occurred. This determination was based on the fact that the discovering operator had already had his LORT OBE for the week and therefore didn't see anything "new". However, it did not necessarily look at whether other operators were able to somehow view data for their upcoming OBE by looking backward one week, or what if anything the data could even tell them. Dresden has also documented the issue in IR 1348182.

How Can Data be Viewed?:

The data can be viewed through the use ofRTViewer from any of the PCs on the RO/SRO desks in the simulator at MW plants only. RTViewer allows LAN access to the PPC to view plant system graphics, computer points, sequence-of-events (SOE) logs, etc.

When in the simulator, it allows viewing simulator PPC data. The potential exists for remote access, but this requires special software and access rights.

1

The SOE data is a collection of digital points that change state with a word description included. For example, it might read "RPOOIA: OFF - RPS DIV 1 'A' SCRAM RELAY", telling you half ofRPS may have received a scram signal. It DOES NOT show live or static numerical values such as power, pressure, level, flow, etc.

RTViewer was newly installed ~1 month ago on the PCs ofthe RO/SRO desks of the Clinton simulator. At QCNPS, it has been installed since the PPC upgrade 3 to 4 years ago.

ON Friday, 3/30/12, an operator in the Clinton simulator was demonstrating the capabilities of the system at the conclusion of a LORT training scenario when he discovered that he could go back several days and read SOE infonnation.

How to Get a PPC SOE Report:

1. Starting at the "Main Menu" screen:
2. Click the "System Administration" button.
3. Click the "Message Retrieval" button.
4. Click on line "Primary SOE Messages" to select it.

S. The START and END dates and times can be changed to desired range.

6. Click the "Retrieve" button.
7. A PDF SOE report opens.

What Can be Inferred From Viewing the Files?

Based on a review of a copy of the SOE log from the QDC simulator PPC system as viewed in RTViewer, the Corporate Training assessment is:

  • The log provided enough information to determine that in one time period a turbine/generator trip, scram and electrical ATWS occurred, followed by SBLC injection, lowered RPV level, etc.
  • Numerical values of parameters are not provided.
  • No information is provided as to who is in the Simulator or what the scenarios are or why they are run.

To access this data, there is a deliberate series of commands that must be used to get to view the file. Unintentional compromise is unlikely to occur.

The potential exists for exam compromise should someone access historical aspects of this data and attempt to decipher with several other pieces of information that would have to be acquired elsewhere. Reconstruction would require technical and diagnostic skills applied to a deliberate effort.

As stated in TQ-AA-201, Examination Security and Administration, 2

"The actions in this procedure are intended to prevent inadvertent compromise, but not willful compromise of examination materials."

Assessment of Impact on ILT NRC Exam Development:

There is NO indication of Exam Compromise at this time.

The files are not readily viewable and require interpretation. ILT candidate access to said information is limited to time in the Simulator. During this time an instructor (or two) is normally present. No suspicious activity by candidates has been reported.

The chances can be further mitigated by implementing actions to remove the data from the Simulator PPCs following exam development activities, validations, and administration.

This will be discussed with the NRC ILT Lead Examiner on Monday, 4/2112, prior to commencement of validation activities and the final resolution documented in the WGE for the station IR #1348733.

Solutions:

IT personnel with oversight of fleet PPC systems have provided a means to delete the data while they work on a longer term fix.

ATTACHMENT 2 Event I Issues Report Format Title - Midwest Simulator Plant Process Computers Retain Historical Data Note: Most verbal reports should take no longer than one minute to compete.

1. Briefly Describe the EventJlssue that is Being Reported:

The intent is to describe with as few words as necessary. Avoid pre or post event information that is not directly related to the breakdown in defenses I barriers that contributed to the event. Avoid equipment EPN's (system and component noun names are sufficient.

IR# 1348127 On March 30 th at approximately 11 :00 a Clinton licensed operator accessing historical information from the Simulator Plant Process Computer (PPC) during a simulator training scenario identified that the sequence of events from previous scenarios could be reconstructed. It was determined that the historical data in the Simulator Plant Process Computer was not being deleted when the simulator Initial Conditions are reset.

The operator who discovered this condition had already taken the cycle's Out of-the-Box Evaluation (OBE) so there was no inadvertent compromise of exam material as a result of this discovery. Clinton Training personnel reviewed TQ-AA-201, the exam administration procedure, and determined that no exam compromise had occurred.

2. Immediate Corrective Actions (examples listed below):
  • Emergency response (Le., First Aid, Rescue, Haz Mat, Security, Ambulance, Fire Department, etc.).
  • Stopped work & placed equipment in a safe condition
  • Quarantined area
  • Removed personnel from assigned duties (and/or pulled associated qualifications)
  • Initiated prompt investigation
  • Interim action(s) to prevent recurrence (including planned duration)
  • Other(s)

The simulator IT group and fleet simulator peer group were informed and a method was implemented that deletes the historical data from the Simulator PPC. This was completed at Clinton and the method was shared with each site's simulator coordinator.

Conducted fleet Training Director calls with corporate IT to develop immediate actions and initiate an extent of condition review.

3. Extent of Condition Site and/or fleet, if known.

Each of the Midwest sites' simulators is affected by this interface with the simulator PPC. The Mid-Atlantic sites have not completed the simulator PPC Prompt Investigation Page 1

upgrade and do not have the ability to access historical data from the simulator "at the controls" area.

Two Midwest sites (Dresden and Quad Cities) are in the process of developing regulatory exams. These sites completed a reset of the simulator PPC historical data. Additionally they determined that historical PPC computer points could be accessed from the simulator :at the controls" area however doing so would require a deliberate series of commands and specific knowledge of when exam material was being created and validated.

Accessing this information would require a willful act on the part of the student. It is unlikely that a student would inadvertently access the information and conclude it was part of an exam.

The remaining three Midwest sites (Braidwood, Byron, and LaSalle) are not developing exams and will complete the manual reset actions this morning prior to the start of training.

4. Planned Actions - Normally complete a QHPI assignment type or higher (examples listed below, as applicable):
  • Complete Quick Human Performance Investigation (QHPI)
  • Perform additional investigation (i.e., ACE, Root Cause, etc.)
  • Common Cause Analysis (CCA)
  • Fleet Communication (i.e., Safety Alert, HU Alert, CC Alert, etc.)
  • Peer Group Review CallI Meeting
  • NER The fleet simulator IT group will create a solution that automatically removes all files when the initial conditions are reset following a simulator scenario.

This will be implemented at all Exelon sites.

Each Midwest site will complete a review of the historical data from the Simulator PPC and determine if any inadvertent compromise may exist.

An NER will be created to track additional actions associated with this issue.

An NNOE will be created to share this discovery and recommended corrective actions with the industry.

ES-401 Record of Rejected KlAs (RO) Form ES-401-4 TIER 1 Group 2 T1/G2 295012 K2.01 Unable to write an operationally valid question about OW Became Ventilation. The only other K2 topic is OW Cooling (K2.02), which 295015 K2.07 would conflict with the KA Topic for 29502B, OW Hi Temp Emergency. From the field of unused T1 G2 evolutions, randomly selected 295015. Selected from K2 again in order to maintain Outline balance. Randomly selected K2.11, Instrument Air, but that topic would be over-sampled (See RO T1G1 and RO& SRO T2G1)

Randomly selected K2.10, SPOS, but were unable to write an operationally valid question on that topic. Randomly selected K2.05, RWM, but a question on that topic would conflict with the RWM question in RO T2G2. Randomly selected K2.0B, neutron monitoring, but a question on that topic would connict with previously developed SRO T3 question 2.4.46. Randomly selected K2.07.

T1/G2 295036 2.4.01 Unable to meet 2na part of KIA statement since there are no Became immediate operator actions for QGA 300 on Reactor Building water 295036 2.4.04 level. Randomly selected 2.4.04 from the field of un-used System Generic KAs.

T1/G2 500000 EA1.07 Unable to write an operationally valid question about N2 Purge Became during an H2 accident condition. Randomly selected an alternate 500000 EA1.01 A.1 topic T1/G2 295020 K3.04 The Chief Examiner ruled the submitted question on inadvertent Became containment isolation as UNSAT because it was backward logic.

295020 K3.01 Unable to write a psychometrically sound question on this topic because RPV pressure would always rise. Randomly selected K3.05, reaCtor water level response, but that topic would conflict with question #1 about void collapse. Randomly selected K3.02, OW pressure response, but that topic would conflict with several scenario events. Randomly selected K3.07, Torus temperature response, but were unable to write a psychometrically sound question on this topic because there are no isolations that would ever result in torus temperature lowering. Randomly selected K3.01.
