ES-401 Written Examination Review Worksheet Form ES-401-9 Instructions

[Refer to Section D 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 (LOD) 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 true/false 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 K/A 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 K/A and those that are designated SRO-only (K/A 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 D.2.f.
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?
8. At a minimum, explain any U ratings (e.g., how the Appendix B psychometric attributes are not being met).

Link units ward K/A Only 1 H 2 X M U 007 EK1.06 S Stem Focus: AFW manipulations would not be required until after STM Dumps, PORVs and BD Isolation valves are closed. To address this, consider the following.

Initial conditions:

Unit 1 is operating at 100% power when a reactor trip occurs RCS Temperature is being monitored IAW ES-0.1 Tave is 556 oF and dropping Current conditions:

Steam dumps, SG PORVs and blowdown isolation valves have been ensured closed All SG levels are 26% and stable Total AFW flow is 400 gpm Tave is 555 oF and dropping Change the 1st part of the question to: Based on the current conditions, AFW flow ________

Needs to be increased (Correct by procedure)

Needs to be dropped (plausible because your cooling down)

Cred Dist. B&D 2nd part are not plausible. It is not discriminating to test if decay heat level decreases with time.

Cred Dist: The first part of C&D is not plausible enough when compared to the 1st part of A&B. Recommend asking for the first part. The Ice Condenser Air handling Unit Breakers _____ (are/are not) opened to prevent hydrogen combustion in teh air duct system.

Changed question as recommended.

SAT 2/6 KDS 3 F 2 X N S 011 EG2.4.47 015 AK2.08 4 F 2 N S 5 H 2 X N U 026 AA1.06 Cred Dist: Second part of A&C having flow automatically restored to the IX is not plausible. Recommend for the second part: Based on a maximum temperature out of the letdown heat exchanger (actual TI) the CVCS mixed bed demineralizers _________ should/should not have automatically bypassed.

6 H 3 X B E 027 AK2.03 Cred Dist: Using the logic that both heaters and spray are controlled by the master controller in this instance (incorrectly), A & D are plausible in that they are what you would expect for a high or low pressure condition. In B however, they go in the opposite direction i.e. if pressure appeared to be low, the spray valves would go closed but the heaters would remain energized. B is not plausible due to the interrelation between heaters & spray.

14 H 2 X X N E 065 AK3.08 S Partial: Were concerned that D could be argued as correct. Need to discuss.

Stem Focus: The question states a large air line rupture. In section 3.3 step 7 it states: check control air pressure greater than 83 psig. If not, the RNO has you go to section 3.2. Based on the enclosed procedure, you assume that the operator stays in section 3.3.

Licensee to walk through this procedure step by step to ensure ONLY one correct answer. May need to give an air pressure greater than 83 psig.

Changed question as recommended.

SAT2/7 KDS 15 H 2 X N E 077 AG2.1.7 S Cred Dist: The second part of A&C. The voltage of both components are obviously high as opposed to low so moving in the positive direction is not plausible. Change voltage in the question stem to 510 Kv.

Leaving this out of the question could affect the operational validity of the question. Recommend testing the following: If RCS pressure is stable after 1-FCV-63-94 is closed, ECA-1.2 requires 1-FCV-63-94 to be _____ (open/closed). Changed as recommended.

Ok 2/6 W/E05 EK2.1 17 H 2 X B U Cred Dist: The only thing in the stem of the question that could have S caused a FWI was the SI. Unless its possible to reset FWI without resetting SI, A&C are not plausible. Re-wrote question.

Ok 2/21 18 H 3 X M S W/E11 EK1.3 19 F 2 X N E 001 AA2.02 S Step Focus: The first bullet states that control rods moved out a step. The 4th bullet stated that the control rods continue to withdraw after being placed in MANUAL. When did the control rods start to withdrawal? The stem to be more clear. The rest of the question is ok. Modified 4th bullet to be more straight forward.

Link units ward K/A Only 23 H 2 X M U/E 059 AK3.02 S Cred Dist: The 1st question when coupled with C&D do not make a lot of sense. It the monitor works properly, nothing happens? Not plausible. Could you remove the RIA from the stem and ask which RIA should have isolated the release? If it wouldnt be too obvious.

KA: Knowledge of the KA does not appear to be tested. It may be difficult to write an RO question for this KA. May need to replace the KA. Replaced KA. New question good.

Modified question to ask if permissive light goes back out as pressure decreases.

Ok 2/6 W.E14 EA1.1 26 H 3 X M E Cred Dist: Too much emphasis is placed on the applicants confusing S the one hour with other times. Recommend putting an initial pressure something above 9.5 psi such that containment pressure is greater than 9.5 psi the whole time. Then give one option that is less than one hour. This would be incorrect IAW FR-Z.1 due to not being one hour. Changed question per recommendation.

A possible solution could be to test exactly what the note states.

Partial: Explain why D is incorrect. It appears to meet the entry criteria for the AOI section 3.4 Strainer DP alarm LIT AND LOW flow on individual supply header with HIGH pressure indicated on IPS supply header. Ok after discussion with licensee.

The times2100 and 0330 annunciators numbers are the same but the nomenclature is different. Corrected Licensee needs to walk through the issue with the drawing to explain why this could be anything other than a clogged strainer Ok 2/21 82 L 3 N E 059 AG2.4.21 S Add IAW EPIP-1 at the end of the second question. Added.

We want operations management concurrence that this is acceptable as a memory level question.

Ops mgmt ok with this as a memory item.

Ok 1/21 83 H 3 M E 067 AA2.04 S Are they required to know the attachments by number? Lets walk through the question with the reference.

The title is Small Reactor Coolant System Leak and your telling them that they are in Saturated Core Cooling. It seems that you are way beyond AOI-6. Re-wrote question, AOI-6 removed.

The first part of the question seems to match the KA but is it SRO level knowledge. The 2nd part doesnt appear to match the KA.

Knowledge of the KA must be tested at the SRO level.

Ok 2/21 85 H 2 X N S W/E15 EA2.2 86 H 3 X N U/E 004 A2.23 S Cred Dist: A&B, if the safety upstream of the orifices lifts, how would you determine what the leak rate is. Based on the information provided, how would you determine what that leak rate was from either relief. Is there any more information that could be added to fix this question. Rewrote 1st part and stem to specify the relief lifting. It goes to the VCT and counts as operational leakage.

Ok 2/21 87 H 3 X N U 006 A2.13 S Cred Dist: C&D 1st part. Stating that you would not transition to ES-1.1 from E-0 would have to include something credible to transition from. The analysis suggest that they would transition in from E-1 based on common methodology. Suggesting that with the set of conditions given, that they would be in E-1 LOSS OF REACTOR OR SECONDARY COOLANT is not plausible. Corrected Would the SI annunciator be lit? Test if both trains of SI need to be actuated IAW E-0 prior to transition to ES-1.1? Incorporated.

2nd part good.

Would you be allowed to substitute the C-S DG while performing the outage on the 1A-A DG? The note in the beginning of 3.8.1 states that it can be substituted for any of the required DGs.

Explain the analysis for A. I had a hard time understanding it. The surveillance mentioned in it ( 0-SI-82-13) could be part of a more discriminating question.

  • initial conditions initiating cues references and tools, including associated procedures
  • reasonable and validated time limits (average time allowed for completion) and specific designation if deemed to be time-critical by the facilty censee -
  • operationally important specific performance criteria that include:

detailed expected actions with exact criteria and nomenclature system response and other examiner cues statements describing important observations to be made by the applicant criteria for successful completion of the task identification of critical steps and their associated performance standards restrictions on the sequence of steps, if applicable

b. Ensure that any changes from the previously approved systems and administrative walk-through outlines (Forms ES-301-1 and 2) have not caused the test to deviate from any of the acceptance criteria (e.g., item distribution, bank use, repetition from the last 2 NRC examinations) specified fy on those forms and Form ES-201-2.

1. The initial conditions are realistic, in that some equipment and/or instrumentation may be out of service, but it does not cue the operators into expected events. 5
2. The scenarios consist mostly of related events. t.
3. Each event description consists of

. the point in the scenario when it is to be initiated

. the malfunction(s) that are entered to initiate the event

. the symptoms/cues that will be visible to the crew ..L 5 S

. the expected operator actions (by shift position)

  • the event termination point (if applicable)
4. No more than one non-mechanistic failure (e.g., pipe break) is incorporated into the scenario without a credible preceding incident such as a seismic event. .
5. The events are valid with regard to physics and thermodynamics. Jt S
6. Sequencing and timing of events is reasonable, and allows the examination team to obtain .

complete evaluation results commensurate with the scenario objectives. !_,c

7. If time compression techniques are used, the scenario summary clearly so indicates.

Operators have sufflcient time to carry out expected activities without undue time constraints.

Cues are given.

8. The simulator modeling is not altered. Sfts
9. The scenarios have been validated. Pursuant to 10 CFR 55.46(d), any open simulator performance deficiencies or deviations from the referenced plant have been evaluated to ensure that functional fidelity is maintained while running the planned scenarios.
10. Every operator will be evaluated using at least one new or significantly modified scenario.

All other scenarios have been altered in accordance with Section D.5 of ES-301.

11. All individual operator competencies can be evaluated, as verified using Form ES-301-6 fhl3 (submit the form along with the simulator scenarios).
12. Each applicant will be significantly involved in the minimum number of transients and events specified on Form ES-301-5 (submit the form with the simulator scenarios).
13. The level of difficulty is appropriate to support licensing decisions for each crew position. /L.
