a. The operating test conforms with the previously approved outline, changes are consistent with sampling requirements (e.g.. 10 CFR 55.45. operational importance, safety function distribution). .
b. There is no day-to-day repetition between this and other operating tests to be administered during this examination. f
c. The operating test shall not duplicate items from the applicants audit test(s) (see Section D.1.a.) &
d. Overlap with the written examination and between different parts of the operating test is within acceptable limits. rC)
e. It appears that the operating test will differentiate between competent and tess-than-competent applicants at the designated license level, a
2. Walk-Through Criteria
a. Each JPM includes the following, as applicable:
  • initial conditions
  • initiating cues
  • references and tools, including associated procedures
  • reasonable and validated time limits (average time allowed far completion) and specific designation if deemed to be time-critical by the facility licensee
  • operationally important specific performance criteria that lnciude 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 on those forms and Form ES-201.2.

QUALITATIVE ATTRIBUTES Initials a b*

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. 1
2. The scenarios consist mostly of related events.

-w-

3. Each event description consists of

. the point In the scenario when it is to be Initiated

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

  • the symptoms/cues that will be visible to the crew
  • the expected operator actions (by shift position)

. the event termination point (if applicable)

4. The events are valid with regard to physics and thermodynamics.
5. Sequencing and timing of events is reasonable, and allows the examination team to obtain complete evaluation results commensurate with the scenario objectives. Li
6. If time compression techniques are used, the scenario summary clearly so indicates.

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

Cues are given.

The simulator modeling is not altered.

7.

8. The scenarios have been validated. Pursuant to 10 CFR 55.4 6(d), any open simulator performance deficiencies or deviations from the referenced plant have been evaluated to ensure that functional .

fidelity is maintained white running the planned scenarios. 10

9. Every operator will be evaluated using at least one new or significantly modified scenario. All other I scenarios have been altered in accordance with Section D.5 of ES-301. .

/6

10. All individual operator competencles can be evaluated, as verified using Form ES-301-6 (submIt the form along with the simulator scenarios). .t
11. The scenario set provides the opportunity for each applicant to be evaluated in each of the applicabte rating factors. (Competency Rating factors as described on forms ES-303-1 and ES-303-3.) LI)
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). F),

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, 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 and justified; operationally important, site-specific systems that are not included on the outline should be added. Refer to section 0.1 .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 fIR) 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 I and 2 from the shaded systems and K/A categories.
7. *The generic fG) K/As in Tiers I 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.I .b of ES-401 for the applicable KAs.
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 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. Forlier3, select topics from Section 2ofthe K/A catalog, and enter the K/A numbers, descriptions, IRs, and point totals (#) on Form ES4OI-3. Limit SRO selections to K/As that are linked to 10 CFR 55.43..
