Note:
1.
Ensure that at least two topics from every applicable K/A 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). (One Tier 3 Radiation Control K/A is allowed if the K/A is replaced by a K/A from another Tier 3 Category).
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 with justification; 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.
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. Refer to Section D.1.b of ES-401 for the applicable K/As.
8.
On the following pages, enter the K/A 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 a category 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.

Group Randomly Selected K/A Reason for Rejection RO 1/1 008 AK3.01 This KA is for a Pressurizer Vapor Space Accident and states, Why PZR level may come back on scale if RCS is saturated. Could not develop a question for this K/A with one correct answer and three incorrect but plausible distractors. Replaced with K/A AK3.03.
RO 1/1 025 AA1.23 This K/A is for monitoring/operating RHR heat exchangers as they apply to a loss of RHR. Another question relating the DH heat exchangers is being asked on another system so to remove this duplication the K/A was replaced with AA1.03.
RO 1/1 038 EK1.03 The EPE is Steam Generator Tube Rupture and the K/A concerns natural circulation. ANO-1 does not have any unique actions in 1202.006, Tube Rupture, for natural circulation conditions. Replaced with K/A EK1.02.
RO 1/1 056 AK3.01 ANO-1 does not have individual load sequencers. Sequencing of loads is accomplished by time delay relays on the individual breakers.
RO 1/1 062 AA1.03 ANO-1 does not use the Service Water System as a backup to CCWS. The Unit 1 equivalent of CCWS is Intermediate Cooling Water (ICW) and Service Water provides cooling to the ICW heat exchangers but it is not considered a backup system to ICW. Replaced with K/A AA1.06.
RO 1/2 003 AK1.21 ANO-1equivalent of Delta Flux (DI) is Axial Power Imbalance. The Technical Specification (3.2.3) is used in conjunction with the Core Operating Limits Report (COLR). COLR Figures 6A-C, 7A-C, 8A-C give such broad limits for Axial Power Imbalance such that a single dropped control rod would have little operational implications other than performing the surveillance for TS 3.2.3. Replaced with K/A AK1.13.
RO 1/2 032 AK2.01 ANO-1 AOP 1203.021, Loss of Neutron Flux Indication, Section 3 contains no actions for resetting the power supplies for Source Range indication. There are actions for resetting power supplies for Intermediate Range detectors, replaced with system 000033 K/A AK2.01, RO Importance Rating 2.4. JUSTIFICATION FOR USE OF K/A WITH RATING LESS THAN 2.5: Monitoring of neutron flux during power changes, particularly startups, is important to reactor safety and thus the health, safety, and welfare of the general public.
RO 2/1 004 K5.32 This KA concerns purpose and control of heat tracing. This is NLO knowledge. Replaced with K/A K5.26.
RO 2/1 005 K1.01 ANO-1 equivalent of CCWS is Intermediate Cooling Water (ICW) and the ICW system has no interconnection with the RHRS equivalent, the Decay Heat System. Replaced with K/A K1.09.
RO 2/1 007 K4.01 This K/A concerns the design features which allow for Quench Tank cooling. This is the only K/A in this category with an importance rating greater than 2.5 and has thus been over-used in exams. Changed to category K5 and replaced with K/A K5.02.
RO 2/1 008 2.2.12 Knowledge of surveillance procedures would best be tested via a JPM instead of the written exam, and ANO-1 does not have any surveillances for the ICW system since it is not in Tech Specs. Replaced with K/A 2.4.31.
Page 16 of 16 ES-401 Record of Rejected K/As Form ES-401-4 RO 2/1 013 K3.03 This K/A concerns the impact a malfunction of the ESFAS would have upon containment. A question was developed for this K/A, however this question was a better fit for the other K/A selected for the 013 system.
Replaced with K/A K3.02.
RO 2/1 022 K4.04 This K/A concerns Containment Cooling System design features and/or interlocks which provide for cooling of the control rod drive motors.
ANO-1 does not have direct cooling of the CRDMs via the CCS, therefore no question could be developed for this K/A. Replaced with K/A K4.03.
RO 2/1 026 A1.02 This K/A concerns the ability to monitor containment temperature as relates to operating Containment Spray controls. ANO-1 Reactor Building Spray System is not operated based upon containment temperature but upon containment pressure. Replaced with K/A A1.03.
RO 2/1 039 K5.01 This K/A concerns the definition and causes of steam/water hammer. A licensed level question could not be developed for this K/A. Replaced with K/A K5.05.
RO 2/1 061 A1.03 This K/A concerns Emergency Feedwater System interactions with multi-units. ANO-1 does not have cross-connects with Unit 2 for the EFW system. Replaced with K/A A1.01.
RO 2/1 062 K4.06 This K/A concerns 6.9KV one line diagrams. A licensed level question could not be developed for this K/A. Replaced with K/A K4.03.
RO 2/2 002 K5.02 This K/A concerns the need for a vent path during draining. A licensed level question could not be developed for this K/A. Replaced with K/A K5.10.
RO 2/2 075 K3.07 This K/A concerns the connection between Circulating Water and ESFAS.
ANO-1 has no connection between the two systems. A CW K/A with a rating greater than 2.5 and a lack of conflict with other questions could not be found. Replaced with system 016 and K/A K3.01.
RO 3 2.1.14 This K/A concerns the knowledge of things which require plant wide announcements. A licensed level question could not be developed for this K/A. Replaced with K/A 2.1.2.
RO 3 2.1.26 This K/A concerns the knowledge of industrial safety requirements. A licensed level question could not be developed for this K/A. Replaced with K/A 2.1.15.
RO 3 2.2.41 This K/A concerns the ability to obtain and interpret station electrical and mechanical drawings. This K/A can only be used to develop a system based question. Replaced with K/A 2.2.6.
RO 3 2.3.5 This K/A concerns the ability to use fixed radiation monitors and alarms which would result in a radiation monitoring system question, or use of portable survey instruments which would best be evaluated via a JPM.
Replaced with K/A 2.3.4.
RO 3 2.4.46 This K/A concerns ability to verify alarms are consistent with plant conditions. This K/A can only be used to develop a system based question. Replaced with K/A 2.4.25.

1.
Ensure that at least two topics from every applicable K/A 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). (One Tier 3 Radiation Control K/A is allowed if the K/A is replaced by a K/A from another Tier 3 Category).
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 with justification; 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.
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. Refer to Section D.1.b of ES-401 for the applicable K/As.
8.
On the following pages, enter the K/A 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 a category 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.

Group Randomly Selected K/A Reason for Rejection SRO T1G1 BW/E04 EA2.2 This is not a rejection, just a record of a correction. Sample plan submitted to ANO used EA2.2 from BW/E05 Excessive Heat Transfer instead of the EA2.2 for the T1G1 topic BW/E04Inadequate Heat Transfer. Excessive Heat Transfer was already being tested in topic 000040 in T1G1. The word Excessive was changed to Inadequate and IR changed from 4.0 to 4.4.
SRO T1G2 000059 AA2.02 This APE is titled Accidental Liquid Radioactive-Waste Release. The KA is The permit for liquid radioactive-waste release. If it is an accidental release, then a permit is not in effect. The APE for Accidental Gaseous Radwaste Release does not have any K/As referring to release permits.
After reviewing the remaining AA2 K/As for this topic, concluded that none of the K/As would produce an SRO level question. Replaced with generic K/A 2.3.11.
SRO T1G2 000067 2.4.18 The APE is Plant Fire on Site and 2.4.18 refers to the knowledge of specific bases for EOPs. Our Fire and Explosion AOP does not have a bases document so this would be a difficult K/A to develop a question for.
Replaced with K/A 2.4.25.
SRO T2G2 000014 2.1.32 This generic K/A concerns the explanation of system limits and precautions. An SRO level question could not be developed for this KA.
Additionally, Rod Position Indication is being evaluated by a JPM so a different system had to be selected. Selected system 000011 PZR Level Control System and K/A A2.11 as a replacement.
SRO T3 2.1.40 This generic K/A concerns fuel handling. Randomly selected K/A 2.1.35 also concerns fuel handling. Fuel handling was randomly over sampled.
Selected K/A 2.1.5 as a replacement.
SRO T3 2.3.6 This generic K/A concerns the ability to approve release permits. It is difficult to evaluate this K/A with a written exam question. This is best evaluated with an administrative JPM. Replaced with K/A 2.3.4.
SRO T3 2.4.9 This generic K/A concerns the knowledge of low power implications during accident situations. This K/A would only result in a system type question which is not desired in Tier 3. Replaced with K/A 2.4.29.

Scenario starts with plant power at 100%. During turnover the BOP will be directed to drain the Reactor Building Sump to the Auxiliary Building Sump. This will be completed with no malfunctions. After the sump draining is complete, LT-1001 - Pressurizer Level Transmitter will fail high causing two alarms (Hi Level and Hi HI Level) and results in the RCS Makeup Valve being demanded closed due to the false high level. The ATC / BOP will determine which transmitter has failed and the ATC will select a good signal for pressurizer level control. The CRS will also enter T.S. 3.3.15 (PAM) for the failed transmitter. Next, PT-2618A, the A Steam Generator Pressure Transmitter, fails high causing the associated Atmospheric Dump Valve (ADV) to open fully. An initial condition built into the scenario is leakby of the ADV Isolation Valve, so the open ADV will result in a steam release and power rise. A call from the field will prompt the crew to look at the components in the Pent House which should lead them to identifying the open ADV, if they havent already noticed prior to the call from the field. PT-2618A also impacts EFIC and will result in Channel A being INOPERABLE and the CRS will enter T.S. 3.3.11 for the inoperable channel. The BOP should be directed to place Channel A in Maintenance Bypass to comply with T.S. 3.3.11. Next, a tube leak in Feedwater Heater E-3A will result in a lowering of Main Feedwater Pump Suction (MFWP) and a rise in reactor power.
Power will stabilize at ~103% with no operator action. The crew should take action to maintain power <100%. Next a Condensate Pump (P-2A) will trip with a failure of the standby Condensate Pump to automatically start. The standby Condensate Pump (P-2C) can be manually started from the control room. The trip of P-2A will result in an automatic runback to 40% power. Following the runback a loss of the Non-Vital 480V Load Center (B3) will occur with a failure of C-5B, Condenser Vacuum Pump to automatically start. C-5B can be started manually from the control room. The major event occurs next and is a Pressurizer Steam Space Leak that results in a LOSM and an ESAS actuation. The size of the leak will result in pressure stabilizing around 1200 psig. During the ESAS actuation Channel 2 (HPI) will fail to actuate. Both trains of HPI are required to regain adequate SCM for the given leak size.
Therefore manual actuation of ES Channel 2 is a critical task. Additionally, RPS is failed and will not result in an automatic reactor trip, so the ATC will manually trip the reactor and this is also a critical step.

This scenario starts with plant power at 90%. During turn over the crew was directed to raise power to 95%. Following the up power, the running Makeup Pump will trip. This results in a loss of makeup and seal injection. The BOP will start the standby Makeup Pump and the ATC will restore makeup and seal injection. The CRS will then direct the BOP to restore letdown flow. Next NI-5 power range indicator will fail low, this will have no immediate effect on the plant but does require the CRS to declare RPS Channel A INOPERABLE and entry into T.S. 3.3.1.
The BOP will place the RPS Channel A in Manual Bypass to comply with T.S. 3.3.1 Condition A.
Next a Critical Trouble Alarm on low oil pressure for the #2 EDG will alert the crew to a significant oil leak rendering the #2 EDG INOPERABLE. The CRS will enter T.S. 3.8.1 and should direct the BOP to place the EDG in Lock Out to prevent an automatic start. Next, the RSP Seal Injection Total Flow Recorder (FR-1239) will fail high which will cause the Seal Injection Flow Control Valve (CV-1239) to go closed. This will isolate seal injection and result in an alarm and rising seal bleedoff temperatures. The ATC will take manual control of CV-1239 and open it enough to restore 8-10 gpm flow to each RCP. Next, a Loss of Offsite Power (LOOP) will occur with a failure of the #1 EDG to automatically start requiring the BOP to manually start the #1 EDG (critical task) to provide power to the Red Train ES components.
Following the reactor trip a Main Steam Safety Valve (MSSV) on the A Steam Generator will fail open resulting in an overcooling and a transition to the Overcooling section in the Degraded Power EOP. Isolating the A Steam Generator is a critical task to stop the overcooling. Once the overcooling is stopped and temperature is being controlled the scenario is complete.

This scenario starts with plant power at 35%. During turnover the BOP is directed to complete a Decay Heat Pump (P-34A) surveillance already in progress. After starting the Decay Heat Pump and establishing the required flowrate P-34A shaft will shear requiring the BOP to diagnose the failure and stop the decay heat pump. The crew will declare P-34A INOPERABLE and the CRS will enter T.S. 3.5.2 Condition A (ECCS). Next, Pressurizer ERV will start leaking which will require the ATC to recognize that the RCS pressure is below the ERV setpoint and he will close the isolation valve, the CRS will enter TRO 3.4.2 Condition A for the RCS Vent Path.
Next the Main Chillers Chilled Water Pump will trip which will result in a Reactor Building temperature rise. The BOP will place Service Water Cooling to the Reactor Building Cooling Units in service while the Auxiliary AO works on recovering the chilled water pump. Next, an RCS leak will begin to develop and continue to degrade. Initial response will require a downpower to take the unit off line. During the downpower, the main turbine controlling header pressure instrument will fail resulting in the Main Turbine failing to respond correctly. The BOP will take manual control of the Main Turbine and the ATC will be required to close TBVs that responded to the failed high pressure. The downpower will be continued after the crew selects the good header pressure transmitter and return the Main Turbine to ICS Auto. They will proceed with the downpower using the SG/RX to manually control the shutdown rate. The RCS leak will degrade to the point resulting in an automatic reactor trip and RCS pressure stabilizing below 150 psig which will result in a LOSM and a transition to the ESAS EOP. CV-1400, (B LPI Isolation valve) will fail to open on ES Channel 4 actuation, a critical task will be for the BOP to identify the failure and manually open CV-1400 to provide the only available LPI flow. The RCS leak will also cause Reactor Building pressure to exceed the setpoint for ES Channels 5 and 6, these channels will fail to actuate and the ATC will have a critical task of manually actuating these channels in order to provide Reactor Building Isolation.

This scenario begins with plant power at 100% and Group 7 rods at 96%. During turnover the crew is directed to dilute and insert rods 2% (Approximately 4 ppm dilution). After the dilution is started, the CFT (Core Flood Tank) pressure will rise above the T.S. limit which will require entry into T.S. 3.5.1 Condition B. The BOP will be directed to vent tank pressure off. After venting the CFT, the B Steam Generator S/U Level will fail low. The ATC will have to identify the failure, he will then place the B MFW Pump H/A Station to HAND, the BOP will verify the other channel reading properly and the BOP will select the NNI-Y channel. After the MFW Pump control is back in automatic, a Heater Drain Pump (P-8A) will trip which requires a rapid downpower to 70% (10%/min) during this time the Main Turbine will stop responding to the downpower requiring manual action by the BOP to balance the plant and continue with the downpower. After the downpower is complete, an RCP Seal Cooler leak will develop requiring entry into T.S. 3.4.13 for RCS Leakage and taking the unit off line. The major event will begin with a large Condensate System leak which will result in the loss of both Main Feedwater Pumps and prevent the use of the Auxiliary Feedwater Pump (P-75). EFIC will fail to actuate EFW requiring the ATC to complete the actuation (critical task). This will result in P-7A being the only source of feed since P-7B was out of service as indicated in the initial conditions. Next, the steam driven EFW pump P-7A will trip which will require a critical action of the BOP to initiate HPI Cooling.

This scenario starts with plant power at 60%. During turnover the BOP will be directed to swap the in service Condensate Pumps. Following the pump swap the Gland Sealing Steam Pressure Controller will fail closed resulting in lowering condenser vacuum. The BOP will throttle open the pressure regulator bypass valve to regain sealing steam to the main turbine.
Next, a rod will drop in (Group 6 Rod 3) which should result in a plant runback to 40% but the automatic runback fails which will require the ATC to manually lower power to 40% using the SG/RX station. After power is reduced to 40%, the ICS signal to the A MFW Pump will fail low which will lower Feedwater flow to the A SG. The ATC will trip the A MFW Pump and verify flow to both steam generators. Next, the running EH Oil Pump will trip with a failure of the standby pump to automatically start. The BOP will be able to manually start the standby EH Oil Pump from the control room to prevent a turbine trip. Then a small steam generator tube leak will develop in excess of the T.S. limit requiring a plant shutdown. The major event will be an escalation of the tube leak to a Tube Rupture. Post trip there will be two stuck rods which will require emergency boration which is a critical task. The second critical task is to commence a cooldown and depressurization. Initially the TBVs will be utilized for the cooldown in order to reduce the tube leak by lowering the dp between the RCS and the secondary side of the steam generator. Once the cooldown is in progress Condenser Vacuum will degrade to the point where the TBVs are interlocked closed, this will require a transition to the ADVs in order to continue the cooldown. The scenario will complete once the cooldown is re-established on the ADVs.
