FOR REVIEW ONLY DO NOT DISTRIBUTE - 1LT42 ONS SRO NRC Examination QUESTION 2 General Discussion Answer A Discussion Incorrect. First part is correct. Second part is plausible because RC-66 does have alternate control power. However it will not operate if power to the solenoid is lost (IDIB Breaker #24). Answer B Discussion Correct. 1RC-66 will still have an open signal. Per AP/44, IRC-66 opens at 2450 psig and closes at 2400 psig. IDIB Breaker #24 supplies power to I RC-66 solenoid, It will not operate in Auto or manual without power to the solenoid. Answer C Discussion Incorrect. First part is plasuible because 2427 is below the 2450 psig setpoint which opens IRC-66 but above close setpoint of 2400. Second part is plausible because RC-66 does have alternate control power. However it will not operate if power to the solenoid is lost (1 DIB Breaker

FOR REVIEW ONLY DO NOT DISTRIBUTE - 1LT42 ONS SRO NRC Examination QUESTION 15 is General Discussion Answer A Discussion Incorrect: Plausible in that a rapid unit shutdown is required; however the method directed is a manual Rx trip. Second part is plausible as it is the immediate trip criteria for loss of CC flow to the CRDMs during the loss of TA is valid. Answer B Discussion Incorrect: Plausible in that a rapid unit shutdown is required; however the method directed is a manual Rx trip. Second part is plausible in that OMP 1-18 dictates a Manual Rx Trip and tripping of both MFWPS if any SG reaches >96% on the OR level. Answer C Discussion Correct. AP/22 requires the reactor to be tripped when FDW is not controllable. The OAC alarm actuates at about 30 psig, well below the 65 psig where FDW valves can stop responding to control signals. Applicants need to know when the OAC alarm actuates. (See referenced SAEL and Step 4.3 of the AP) Therefore, the AP requires that the reactor be tripped and the MFDW pumps to be tripped. Answer D Discussion Incorrect: AP/22 requires MFDW pumps to be tripped immediately after the reactor is manually due to loss of FDW controllability. Plausible in that the candidate could erroneously think that Feedwater control valves (and FDW demand) would still be controllable if taken to Hand on the ICS stations.

FOR REVIEW ONLY DO NOT DISTRIBUTE - 1LT42 ONS SRO NRC Examination QUESTION 24 24] General Discussion Answer A Discussion Incorrect. Plausible because increasing FDW would stabilize reactor power. However OMP 1-18 does not allow increasing FOW during performance of PTR. Answer B Discussion Incorrect. Plausible because increasing FDW would stabilize RCS pressure. However OMP 1-1 8 does not allow increasing FDW during performance of PTR. Answer C Discussion Correct. With Th failing low, indicated Tave decreases and ICS causes control rods to withdraw (based on Tave error) and FDW to decrease in an attempt to restore (indicated) Tave to setpoint. Since actual Tave is increasing, Control rods should be inserted to stop the pressure increase. Answer D Discussion Incorrect: First part is plausible since actual inserting control rods is correct.

FOR REVIEW ONLY DO NOT DISTRIBUTE - 1LT42 ONS SRO NRC Examination QUESTION 53 53] General Discussion Answer A Discussion Incorrect: First part is plausible since it is reasonable to assume that the pump in standby vill auto start once power is available and LPSW pressure is low. With a 30 minute loss of power, LPSW pressure will be well below the 70 psig start setpoint and the misconception of the 10 second time delay operation would result in this choice. Second part is plausible since the LPSW RBCU Waterhammer Isolation valves (which are also addressed in AP/24) do isolate at the same low pressure setpoint of 18 psig as the RB Aux Coolers however the Waterhammer Isolation Circuitry will automatically reinstate itself as LPSW pressure returns to normal. Answer B Discussion Incorrect: First part is plausible since it is reasonable to assume that the pump in standby will auto start once power is available and LPSW pressure is low. With a 30 minute loss of power, LPSW pressure will be well below the 70 psig start setpoint and the misconception of the 10 second time delay operation would result in this choice. Second part is correct. Answer C Discussion Incorrect: First part is correct. Second part is plausible since the LPSW RB waterhammer mod valves (which are also addressed in AP/24) do reopen automatically once LPSW pressure is restored. Answer D Discussion Correct. Following a LOOP when power has been restored to the Main Feeder Busses if pressure remains 70 psig for 10 seconds the standby LPSW pump will start. If only 5 seconds have passed since MFBs re-energize the standby pump will not be operating. Low LPSW pressure will isolate the RB Auxiliary Coolers and the RBCU Waterhammer Prevention Circuitry. Once the RB Aux Cooler isolation valves close, they must be manually re-opened. AP/24 directs the operator to OP/I IAJI 1 04/010 (Low Pressure Service Water) to restore the system once pressure is restored.
