2 Note: 1.

Ensure that at least two topics from every applicable KJA category are sampled within each lier 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 KJA category sl1all 11ol be less than two).

2.

The point toti:ll for each group and tier in the proposed oullfne must match that speclfled in the table.

The final point total for each group and lier 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 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 berore selecting a second topic for any system or evolution.

5.

Absent a plant*spectfic 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 porllons. respectlveiy.

6.

Select SRO topics for Tiers 1 and 2 from the shaded systems and KIA categories.

7!

The generic (G) KIAs In Tiers 1 and 2 shall be selected from Section 2 of the KJA Catalog, but the topics must be relevant to the applicable evolution or system. Refer to Section D.1.b of ES-401 for the applicable K/As.

8.

On the following pages, enter the KIA numbers, a brief description of each topic, the topics' importance ratings (I Rs) 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 II on the left side of Column A2 ror 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 Sectlon 2 of lhe KJA catalog, and enter the KJA numbers, descriptions, IRs, and point totals(#) on Form ES-40i-3. Limit SRO selections to K/As that are linked to 10 CFR 55.43.

Ensure that at least two topics from every applicable KJA category are sampled within each lier 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 KJA category sl1all 11ol be less than two).

2.

The point toti:ll for each group and tier in the proposed oullfne must match that speclfled in the table.

The final point total for each group and lier 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 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 berore selecting a second topic for any system or evolution.

5.

Absent a plant*spectfic 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 porllons. respectlveiy.

6.

Select SRO topics for Tiers 1 and 2 from the shaded systems and KIA categories.

7!

The generic (G) KIAs In Tiers 1 and 2 shall be selected from Section 2 of the KJA Catalog, but the topics must be relevant to the applicable evolution or system. Refer to Section D.1.b of ES-401 for the applicable K/As.

8.

On the following pages, enter the KIA numbers, a brief description of each topic, the topics' importance ratings (I Rs) 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 II on the left side of Column A2 ror 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 Sectlon 2 of lhe KJA catalog, and enter the KJA numbers, descriptions, IRs, and point totals(#) on Form ES-40i-3. Limit SRO selections to K/As that are linked to 10 CFR 55.43.
