SUMMARY

  • Initial Conditions:

o The plant is operating at 9% power just after the Mode Switch was taken to RUN.

o APRM 4 is out of service and bypassed for repair.

o The 1C Feed Pump is Out-of Service.

  • Event 1: The BOP establishes the Drywell Inerting lineup per QCOP 1600-20.
  • Event 3: During rod withdrawal, one rod will not move from position 00. When the ATC raises CRD drive water pressure, the rod can be withdrawn normally. Drive water pressure should then be returned to normal.
  • Event 5: A steam leak in the RCIC Room results in RCIC Steam Line high DP and High area Temperature alarms, but RCIC fails to isolate as designed. A report from the Reactor Building confirms a steam leak. The BOP will manually isolate the RCIC Steam Lines and the Crew will perform the QCOA 0201-05, Primary System Leaks (Slow Leaks) Outside Primary Containment, and QGA 300. The SRO will address Technical Specifications for inoperable RCIC and inoperable PCIV valves/instrumentation.
  • Event 6: A LOCA inside the Drywell results in a reactor scram and entry into QGA 100 and 200. The crew restores RPV Water Level and controls Drywell Pressure and Temperature with Containment Sprays.
  • Event 7: A loss of Bus 11 deenergizes the 1A RFP. The 1B RFP degrades and cannot maintain RPV Level. Manual initiation of HPCI is necessary for high-pressure injection to restore RPV water Level.
  • Approximate Run Time: 1.5 Hours CRITICAL TASKS:

Critical Task #1: Given a reactor plant with a reactor building area radiation alarm or temperature alarm, isolate all discharges into the area.

Critical Task #2: Given a shutdown reactor with a LOCA in progress, restore and maintain RPV water level with available high pressure systems IAW with QGA 100.

Critical task #3: When Torus pressure exceeds 5 psig, INITIATE drywell sprays while in the safe region of the drywell spray initiation limit (DSIL). (BWROG PC-5.1 INIT DW SPRAY)

Quad Cities 2011 NRC EXAM Scenario 1 EXERCISE PERFORMANCE OBJECTIVES SR-1600-P01 Given a reactor plant during a startup, inert the primary containment using the electric vaporizers and the reactor building ventilation system in accordance with QCOP 1600-20.

SR- 0300-P05 Given a reactor plant during a startup with a stuck control rod, restore the ability to drive the control rod or declare the rod inoperable in accordance with QCOA 0300-02.

SR 0700-P07 Given an operating reactor plant with an APRM failure, take actions to bypass the failed APRM and meet TS requirements in accordance with QCOP 0700-04 and QCAP 0230-19. (SOER 90-3 r1)

SR-0001-P40 Given a reactor plant with a reactor building area radiation alarm, temperature alarm, differential pressure at or above 0 inches, or area water level above 1 inch, attempt to isolate all discharges into an area except systems needed for fire fighting or other QGA actions in accordance with QCOA 201-5 and QGA 300.

SR-0002-P03 Given a reactor plant at power with a reactor scram, place the plant into a stable condition in accordance with QCGP 2-3.

SR-0203-P07 Given a reactor plant in a QGA condition, inhibit ADS in accordance with QGA 100 or QGA 101. (Important PSA task / Inhibiting ADS terminates 5 of top 200 Core Damage Sequences)

SR-1000-P02 Given a reactor plant in an accident condition (QGA), operate torus sprays in accordance with QCOP 1000-30 and appropriate QGA. (Important PRA Operator Action - starting containment sprays has a RAW value of 82.5)

SR-1000-P04 Given a reactor plant with rising containment pressures due to a LOCA or steam leak and RHR is not needed for core cooling, verify parameters are in the safe region of the Drywell Spray Initiation Limit (QGA Figure K), verify tripped or trip recirc pumps and drywell coolers, and attempt to initiate drywell sprays when torus pressure exceeds 5 psig in accordance with QGA 200 and QCOP 1000-30. (Important PRA Operator Action - starting containment sprays has a RAW value of 82.5)

SR-0001-P45 Given a reactor plant in a QGA condition, verify the proper actuation of containment isolations and ECCS and emergency DG starts in accordance with QGA 100 or QGA 101.

SUMMARY

  • Initial Conditions:

o The plant is operating at 100% power.

o HPCI maintenance complete. Restore HPCI to its standby lineup.

o Drywell Spray Valve MO 1-1001-23A is inoperable, on Day 2 of a 7-Day TLCO.

  • Event 1: The BOP re-pressurizes the HPCI Steam Lines and restores HPCI to its standby lineup per QCOP 2300-01 Step F.5.
  • Event 2: (Optional for Surrogate) The BOP responds to Annunciator 912-1 G-12 CONTROL ROOM STANDBY HVAC SYS. MAJOR TRBL and determines that the Toxic Gas Monitor is inoperable. The SRO refers to Technical Requirements Manual TLCO 3.3.e, Cond A and QCOS 5750-06. If the signal from the faulty monitor is inhibited within 40 minutes, TS 3.7.4 Condition A for inoperable CREV system will not apply.
  • Event 3: The CRD Flow Controller Auto output will fail upscale, which raises Drive Pressure and Cooling Flow. This causes a single control rod to drift INWARD to position 12. The ATC must fully insert the rod per the QCAN and QCOA for Rod Drift. The ATC may also restore CRD parameters to normal by taking the controller to MANUAL per the QCOA for a failed CRD Flow Control valve.
  • Event 4: Drywell N2 controller fails, causing the makeup valve to open fully. The BOP can take manual control of the valve and close it to stabilize Drywell pressure. Without operator action, Drywell pressure will continue to rise and eventually exceed the Drywell High Pressure alarm setpoint.
  • Event 5: (Optional for Surrogate) The IMD Supervisor calls the US to report that an unqualified replacement part was recently used the Torus Level Transmitter for Control Room Narrow Range indications. The SRO will address Technical Specifications for an inoperable Post Accident Monitoring (PAM) instrument.
  • Event 6: The running Gland Seal Exhauster will trip. The BOP will start the standby Exhauster and adjust Gland Exhaust pressure.
  • Event 7: An air leak will result in lowering Main Condenser Vacuum. The crew performs QOA 3300-02 and Emergency Power Reduction. Prompt action by Equipment Operators to re-fill a loop seal line will stabilize Main Condenser Vacuum.
  • Event 8: Drywell Pressure starts to rise when a LOCA is initiated. The Manual Scram Pushbuttons, the Mode Switch to SHUTDOWN, and Drywell Pressure >2.5 psig will fail to trip RPS. The ATC must perform Alternate Rod Insertion procedures, most likely ARI initiation, to successfully insert all control rods. QCGP 2-3 actions for the Scram Discharge Volume, SRMs and IRMs are different will be different with the failure of RPS to trip.
  • Event 9: A LOCA inside the Drywell results in a reactor scram and entry into QGA 100 and 200. The crew restores RPV Water Level and attempts to control Drywell Pressure and Temperature with Containment Sprays.
  • Event 10: When Division 2 Containment Spray valves cannot be opened, the crew must Blowdown in order to avoid exceeding Pressure Suppression Pressure (PSP).

CRITICAL TASKS:

Critical Task #1 With a reactor scram required and the reactor not shutdown, TAKE ACTION TO REDUCE POWER by injecting boron (prior to exceeding 110oF torus temperature) and/or inserting control rods, to prevent exceeding primary containment design limits.

Critical task #2: When Drywell temperature CANNOT be maintained < 280 F OR Torus pressure CANNOT be maintained < the Pressure Suppression Pressure Limit, (PSP),

INITIATE an Emergency Depressurization.

SUMMARY

  • Initial Conditions:

o The plant is operating at 100 power.

o Drywell Spray Valve 23A is inoperable.

  • Event 1: The BOP performs QCOS 1400-01, Quarterly Core Spray System Flow Rate Test (A Pump only). When the Minimum Flow valve fails to auto close, the BOP will stop the Core Spray Pump and secure the system. The SRO will address Tech Specs for one Core Spray System inoperable, 3.5.1 Condition B.
  • Event 2: The 1A Feedwater Heater level switch fails, resulting in the isolation of a Feedwater Heater String. The Crew responds per QCOA 3500-01, Feedwater Temperature Reduction with the Main Turbine Online. The crew performs QCOA 0400-01, Reactivity Addition, by performing an Emergency Power Reduction. When the level switch is restored, the reactivity addition is terminated after closure of the LP Heater String Bypass Valve.
  • Event 3: During Emergency Power Reduction, neither the Runback Pushbutton nor the Master Recirc Controller will respond. The ATC must diagnose this problem and take manual control of individual Recirc Controllers.
  • Event 4: The Bellows Failure annunciator will alarm for the Target Rock Relief Valve, which makes the Safety Function of this valve inoperable. The SRO will address Tech Specs for one or more Safety valves inoperable, 3.4.3 Condition C.
  • Event 5: When a second FWLC transmitter fails, the reg valves shift to manual. The ATC must control level manually during power operations, a scram, and QGA 100 and 300 performance.
  • Event 6: Due to the loss of FW Heating, a fuel element failure begins. The crew will respond to High Offgas radiation per QCOA 1700-04. When SJAE Rad levels cannot be maintained

< High-High alarm, the crew will isolate Offgas, Scram, and close the MSIVs/Drains. A leak in the HPCI room then begins that requires the crew to enter QGA 300. The crew will attempt to isolate the leak, but the leak cannot be isolated.

  • Event 7: When the Torus Area also exceeds Max Safe Radiation level, the crew will Emergency Depressurize the RPV.
  • Approximate Run Time: 1.5 Hours CRITICAL TASKS:

Critical Task #1: Given an operating reactor plant and a loss of Feedwater heating, perform actions to control reactor power and reclose the MO 1-3403, LP HTR STRING BYP VLV, to terminate the reactivity addition.

Critical Task #2: The Crew will take action to isolate the RPV and reduce the release of radioactivity by manually closing the MSIVs, Main Steam drains and verifying the Offgas System is isolated as required.

Critical task #3: Given an operating reactor plant with a primary system discharging into the reactor building and the discharge cannot be isolated, INITIATE an emergency depressurization when two or more areas exceed the maximum safe operating levels of the same parameter (radiation, temperature, or water level).

Quad Cities 2011 NRC EXAM Scenario 3 EXERCISE PERFORMANCE OBJECTIVES SR-1400-P05 Given a reactor plant with a core spray loop in a standby lineup, perform the Quarterly Core Spray Pump Flow Rate Test and return the core spray loop to standby in accordance with QCOS 1400-01.

SR-3500-P02 Given an operating reactor plant when an 'A' heater high level (loss of FW heating) occurs, perform actions to control reactor power and reclose LP heater bypass valve in accordance with QCOA 3500-01 and QCOA 0400-01.

SR-0002-P05 Given a reactor plant at power, perform a power change discernible on neutron monitors using recirc flow in accordance with QCOP 0202-03 and QCGP 3-1.

SR-0002-P03 Given a reactor plant at power with a reactor scram, place the plant into a stable condition in accordance with QCGP 2-3.

SR-1700-P03 Given a reactor plant at power and a fuel clad failure or high activity in off-gas, take action to reduce the release in accordance with QCOA 1700-05 or QCOA 1700-04.

SR-0001-P42 Given a reactor plant with a primary system discharging into the reactor building and the discharge cannot be isolated, verify/initiate an emergency depressurization when two or more areas exceed the maximum safe operating levels of the same parameter (radiation, temperature, or water levels) in accordance with QGA 300 and QGA 500-1.

SUMMARY

  • Initial Conditions:

o The plant is operating at 75% power.

o The 1A EHC Pump is out of service.

o The 1B Service Water pump is out of service.

o Drywell Spray Valve 23A is inoperable.

  • Event 1: The BOP starts the 1A Condensate pump and secures the 1B Condensate pump.
  • Event 2: GCB 4-6 is inadvertently tripped open during a Switchyard breaker inspection. The problem is resolved and the US directs the BOP to reclose GCB 4-6 per QCOP 6400-08.
  • Event 3: The 1A Service Water Pump capacity will degrade to the point that the low-pressure alarm is received in the Control Room. Reports from the Equipment Operator confirm a problem with the pump. The BOP should start the 1/2 or the 2A Service Water Pump and secure the 1A pump.
  • Event 4: 1A Recirc Pump Seals fail due to pump vibration. Drywell pressure begins to rise.

The ATC must shutdown the Pump and isolate it. The SRO must address Technical Specifications for Single Loop Operation.

  • Event 6: The 1B Recirc Pump trips. When the second Recirc pump trips, the ATC must manually scram the reactor. Only 1/2 of the withdrawn control rods insert. The crew performs the actions of QGA 100 and 101 for a Hydraulic ATWS.
  • Event 7: The crew terminates and prevents injection per QGA 101 (Level/Power Control).

During this period, the running EHC pump trips which closes the Turbine Bypass valves.

The crew must manually control RPV Pressure with Relief Valves.

  • Event 8: When SBLC is initiated for the ATWS, the 1st pump selected will fail to start. The ATC will recognize this malfunction and start the other SBLC Pump.
  • Scenario ends when actions are being taken to shutdown the reactor and RPV water level is being controlled in the specified band.
  • Approximate Run Time: 1.5 Hours CRITICAL TASKS:

Critical Task #1 With a reactor scram required and the reactor not shutdown, TAKE ACTION TO REDUCE POWER by injecting boron (prior to exceeding 110oF torus temperature) and/or inserting control rods, to prevent exceeding primary containment design limits. (BWROG RPV-6.1 ATWS PWR/LVL S/D REACTOR)

Critical task #2: During at ATWS with conditions met to perform power/level control, TERMINATE AND PREVENT INJECTION, with the exception of boron, CRD and RCIC into the RPV until conditions are met to re-establish injection.

Critical task #3: When conditions are met to re-establish injection, use available injection systems to MAINTAIN RPV water level above the Minimum Steam Cooling RPV Water Level (-166).
