TS 3.9.4 (Refueling Ops- DHR and Coolant Circulation (High Water Level) is in effect as water level is 3 21.34 ft. This condition requires only I DHR loop to be operable and in service since the water can provide adequate backup decay heat removal.

Answer B Discussion Incorrect: First part is correct. 2nd part is incorrect but plausible since Spent Fuel Cooling (SFC) helps to provide decay heat removal but is not the basis for allowing the pump to be secured for up to an hour.

Answer C Discussion Incorrect: First part is incorrect but plausible if TS 3.9.5 criteria are misapplied to this situation. TS3.9.5 (DHR and Coolant Circulation Low Water Level) requires 2 operable DHR loops with one loop in service (no time is allowed for a pump to be secured). 2nd part is wrong but plausible in that it would be true if level was below the refueling level of 21.34 ft.

Answer D Discussion Incorrect: First part is incorrect but plausible if TS 3.9.5 criteria are misapplied to this situation. TS3.9.5 (DHR and Coolant Circulation Low Water Level) requires 2 operable DHR loops with one loop in service (no time is allowed for a pump to be secured). 2nd part is incorrect but plausible since Spent Fuel Cooling (SFC) helps to provide decay heat removal but is not the basis for allowing the pump to be secured for up to an hour.

1LT42 ONS SRO NRC Examination QUESTION 79 79j General Discussion Answer A Discussion Incorrect. First part is correct. Second part is plausible because HPI F/C would normally be the next choice for decay heat removal.

Answer B Discussion Correct. Per notes in the TBF tab:

Feeding to 95% OR. in Step 1 supersedes guidance in Rule 7 (SG Feed Control), Table 4 (SO Level Control Points)

For long term cooling, maintenance of stable shutdown conditions from the SSF is preferred over the initiation of HPI forced cooling.

Answer C Discussion Incorrect. First part is plausible because Rule 7 normally provides guidance on how to feed the SOs. Second part is plausible because HPI F/C would normally be the next choice for decay heat removal.

FOR REVIEW ONLY DO NOT DISTRIBUTE B

1LT42 ONS SRO NRC Examination QUESTION 82 82j General Discussion Answer A Discussion Incorrect. First part is correct. Second part is plausible since the reactor vessel wall is affected by exposure to neutron flux. Since neutron embrittlement of the vessel wall is a concern and increased QPT results in increased exposure of the RV wall to neutron flux it is plausible to associate elevated QPT levels with concerns over neutron embrittiement of the RV wall and therefore concerns over Brittle Fracture of the RV.

Answer B Discussion Correct. A dropped control rod will result in depressed power production in the quadrant in which the rod has dropped and depending on the proximity of the rod to other quadrant, it can cause slightly misaligned power production in other quadrants as well. QPT is a common issue that will arise in a dropped rod situation. The COLR provides 3 levels of QPT limits. Although the lowest limit is named steady state limit, it applies at all times the spec is applicable (even if the unit is not at steady state).

Answer C Discussion Incorrect. First part is plausible for two reasons: I. There is an RC Flow Runback in ICS that would attempt to perform an ICS runback on loss of a RCP at power. Reactor power is low enough in this question so that there would not be a Rx trip on fluxlflow when the RCP was lost. With Delta TC in hand there would be no automatic re-ration of feedwater which adds to plausiblility of unbalanced Excore NI indications 2. Since there are 4 pumps (one in each cold leg) it is plausible to associate a RCP with a quadrant of the core and therefore believe that a RCP trip could result in skewed power production in each core due to the flow and temperatures being believed to be different in each quadrant. With Delta TC

i hand there would be no automatic re-ration of feedwater which adds to plausiblility of unbalanced Excore NI indications. Second part is plausible since the reactor vessel wall is affected by exposure to neutron flux. Since neutron embrittlement of the vessel wall is a concern and increased QPT results in increased exposure of the RV wall to neutron flux it is plausible to associate elevated QPT levels with concerns over neutron embrittlement of the RV wall and therefore concerns over Brittle Fracture of the RV.

Answer D Discussion

mnco1ct. First part is plausible for two reasons: 1. There is an RC Flow Runback in ICS that would attempt to perform an ICS runback on loss of a RCP at power. Reactor power is low enough in this question so that there would not be a Rx trip on flux/flow when the RCP was lost. With Delta TC in hand there would be no automatic re-ration.offeedwater which adds to plausiblility of unbalanced Excore NI indications 2. Since there are 4 pumps (one in each cold leg) it is plausible to associate a RCP with a quadrant of the core and therefore believe that a RCP trip could result in skewed power production in each core due to the flow and temperatures being believed to be different in each quadrant. With Delta TC in hand there would be no automatic re-ration of feedwater which adds to plausiblility of unbalanced Excore NI indications. Second part is correct.

Basis for meeting the KA Requires the ability to determine that a Control Rod has been dropped into the core based on excore power range NIs and requires an understanding of the implications of opening with a dropped rod that skews neutron flux and results in Quadrant Power Tilt issues.

1LT42 ONS SRO NRC Examination QUESTION 84 8 General Discussion Answer A Discussion Correct. Both headers have only one HPI pump operating and both are exceeding 475 gpm. The A header must include Seal Inlet Flow. Both HPI pumps will be secured. However no HPI pumps are credited for a Large Break LOCA.. Since both LPI header flow together exceeds 3400 gpm, this would be a LBLOCA.

Answer B Discussion Incorrect. First part is correct. Second part is plausible because if not a LBLOCA this would be correct.

Answer C Discussion Incorrect. First part is plausible because if Seal Inlet Flow not added in to the A header this would be correct. Second part is correct.

Additional plausibility is from having to determine that the loss of the 3DIC panelboard would cause 3KVIC to de-energize. If this is not recognized then this is the correct choice. Second part is correct.

Answer B Discussion Incorrect: : First part is plausible as described in A. Second part is plausible since SK and SL breakers protective relaying is signaled out in the electrical specs as unique. It is unique because unit ls DIC and DID panelboards provide power to these breakers that all 3 units rely on. The fact that the power for SK and SL breakers comes from a units power panelboards and is signaled out as unique in the electrical specs combine to make this a plausible distractor since Condition F is itself unique for other reasons. Additionally, the breakers are getting power from the c and d strings of panelboards however it is from the DC panelboards instead of the AC panelboards.

Answer C Discussion CORRECT: When 3DIC is de-energized then 3KVIC would also de-energize. With both 3KVIC and 3KVID de-energized there is no TS Condition in TS 3.8.8 that allows for multiple Vital Instrumentation power panelboards to be inoperable therefore immediate entry into LCO 3.0.3 would be required. TS 3.8.8 Condition F allows 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> to restore KVIA and KVIB and then allows 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> to restore KVIC and KVID.

The difference is due to the fact that KVIA and KVIB provide power to the odd and even ES digital channels respectively therefore a loss of either panelboard would render all of the Odd or Even digital channels unable to trip since they fail in the untripped state when de-energized.

Answer D Discussion Incorrect: First part is correct. Second part is plausible as described in B.

Answer C Discussion Incorrect. First part is correct. Second part is plausible because the Diesel Air Compressors could provide air to FDW-3l5/316. However this is not the reason that they are started on low IA header pressure.

Answer D Discussion Correct. The Diesel Air Compressors will start at 90 psig IA header pressure. The reason they are started is to prevent exceeding RB design pressure during a subsequent MSLB/LOOP. This is done by ensuring the the FDW valves have enough air pressure to close because they fail as-is on loss of IA.
