Ensure that at least two topics from every applicable KJA category are sampled within each tier of the RO and SRO-only outlines (i.e., except for one category in Tier 3 of the SRO-only outline, the Tier Totals in each K/A category shall not be less than two).
2. The point total for each group and tier in the proposed outline must match that specified in the table.

The final point total for each group and tier may deviate by +/-1 from that specified in the table based on NRC revisions.

The final RO exam must total 75 points and the SRO-only exam must total 25 points.

3. Systems/evolutions within each group are identified on the associated outline; systems or evolutions that do not apply at the facility should be deleted and justified; operationally important, site-specific systems/evolutions that are not included on the outline should be added. Refer to Section D.1 .b of ES-401 for guidance regarding the elimination of inappropriate K/A statements.
4. Select topics from as many systems and evolutions as possible; sample every system or evolution in the group before selecting a second topic for any system or evolution.
5. Absent a plant-specific priority, only those K/As having an importance rating (IR) of 2.5 or higher shall be selected.

Use the RO and SRO ratings for the RO and SRO-only portions, respectively.

6. Select SRO topics for Tiers 1 and 2 from the shaded systems and K/A categories.

Use duplicate pages for RO and SRO-only exams.
9. For Tier 3, selecttopics from Section 2 of the K/A catalog, and enter the K/A numbers, descriptions, IRs, and point totals (#) on Form ES-401 -3. Limit SRO selections to K/As that are linked to 1 0 CFR 55.43.

[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., ifthe 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 samrled 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).

2. Stem focus: add approximately to the Q statement, for example: Based on the given conditions, the current subcooling value is approximately
3. Job link: Is there a plant document that specifies that subcooling is calculated using CETs instead of Thot? A better way to ask the Q is to state that qualified SPDS (or whatever that is Vogtle specific) subcooling monitor is reading erratically. The 55 directs you to verify the reading by manually calculating subcooling margin. Based on the given conditions, the correct reading as displayed on SPDS TI-XXX, Subcooling, should be approximately I.e., this introduces a little bit of operational validity to the exercise of using steam tables. Another suggestion would be to give five highest CET values, see if applicant knows to use average of 5 highest, or the very highest L value 4 Cred Dist when would operators ever average Thots and CETs (making distractor B non plausible)?

03/15/2012 1 Discussed at length w/licensee. NRC position is that it is better to provide hot leg and cold leg temperature values and CET values, and then ask what the subcooling monitor calculates (more operationally valid). Licensee agreed to table the Q.

3. Multiple correct answers. First part of the Q, SDM limits are power distribution and reactivity limits (subset) due to the imprecision of the phrase power distribution and reactivity limits.

Because the Q stem clearly states that l&C determines that the rod control system is demanding motion properly but the rod will not move, it is clear that the rod is somehow mechanically stuck. This determination does not require any specific knowledge of TS bases and is something any operator could determine. For example, an ECCS pump breaker that trips obviously renders the pump mopthis is an operability determination, but not at the SRO level.

is U due to multiple non-plausible distractors.

03/14/2012 1 Licensee provided two different modifications to the Q. Neither was completely acceptable. NRC modified Q statement and second part of all distractors to achieve a Q hat would meet NUREG requirements, by testing whether additional actions were required in the ODCM vs. timing requirements for samples, etc.

Wi 6/2012 1 Answer/distractor analysis needs to be updated for this Q to reflect final version of Q.

No additional changes needed to actual Q in final submittal, Q appears SAT. MKM.

2. Stem focus: Must ask required actions; is entry into INFO LCOs ever required?

. Cred dist: D is not plausible. With all NSCW pumps in both trains in PTL, how is hat NOT LCO 3.0.3? C is also not plausible because why would the operators decide 0 PTL all train A NSCW pumps when the LO PRESS condition has cleared?

03/14/2012 I Licensee provided modified Q for discussion. NRC provided recommendations for fixing the Q, Q should be now SAT. First part: is/is not required to place all NSCW pumps in PTL; second part: is/is not required to immediately enter LCO 3.0.3?

Q is NOT SRO only, because it tests on whether applicant is required to trip Rx or not. Criteria to trip the Reactor are essentially entry conditions into E-O and these conditions are RO-level knowledge.

2. Stem focus: Recommended changes to the Q statement, need to test requirements and be clear that voltages were constant during period under review:

Based on the current conditions, which one of the following correctly completes the following statement?

If bus voltages were a steady 3595V, the Normal Incoming Breakers would have tripped after and the Shift Supervisor is required to .

Q is U due to not meeting SRO-only.

03/14/2012 I Licensee presented argument that due to Rx trip requirement being buried in the OP that Rx trip requirements in this case would not be normal entry in E-0. NRC

2. Based on the information in the Q, correct answer to the Q is A because step 23 RNO would first require repressurization before a transition to ES-O.3. Also try to keep Q on one page if at all possible.

-Cooldown per 19002-C, ES-O.2 Natural Circulation Cooldown is in progress.

-The SS is at the step in I 9002-C to check that a steam void in Reactor Vessel does NOT exist.
