- 1.
Ensure that at least two topics from every applicable KIA category are sampled within each tier of the RO and SRO-only outlines (i.e., except for one category in Tier 3 ofthe SRO-only outline, the A 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 'V1 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 that are not included on the outline should be added. Refer to ES-401, Attachment 2, 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.
- 7.
- The generic (G) K/As in Tiers 1 and 2 shall be selected from Section 2 of the K/A Catalog, but the topics must be relevant to the applicable evolution or system.
- 8.
On the following pages, enter the KIA numbers, a brief description of each topic, the topics= importance ratings (IRs) for the applicable license level, and the point totals(#) for each system and category. Enter the group and tier totals for each category in the table above; if fuel handling equipment is sampled in other than Category A2 or G* on the SRO-only exam, enter it on the left side of Column A2 for Tier 2, Group 2 (Note
- 1 does not apply). Use duplicate pages for RO and SRO-only exams.
- 9.
For Tier 3, select topics 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 10 CFR 55.43.

a.
Recovery from Recirc System Runback 202001 A4.01 Ability to operate and/or monitor in the control room:
Recirculation Pumps This is a previous exam (2012) simulator alternate path JPM that will have the examinees preparing to start the second recirc pump.
When the pump is started and the discharge valve is being throttled open the only running pump will trip requiring a reactor manual scram. This JPM was randomly selected from the 2012 exam.
- b. Start HPCI with Exhaust Diaphragm failure 206000 A3.09 Ability to monitor automatic operation of HPCI including response to system isolation This is a banked JPM that will require the examinee to start HPCI for injection per the Hard Card and restore RPV water level. As an alternate path the exhaust diaphragm breaks and HCI does not auto isolate requiring manual isolation of HPCI.
c.
Emergency Equalize around MSIVs 239001 A4.01 Ability to manually operate and or monitor in the Control Room:
MSIVs This is a banked simulator JPM that will require the examinee to perform the control operator actions associated with emergency equalization around the MSIVs. This JPM was randomly selected from the 2010-2 exam.
d.
SDC restoration with RHR valve overload 295021 AA1.04 Ability to manually operate Alternate Heat Removal Methods This is a low power banked simulator JPM that will require the examinee to perform Alternate Shutdown Cooling lAW OAOP-15.0.
As an alternate path the RHR pump has on overload condition.
