Ensure that at least two topics from every applicable K/A category are sampled within each tier of the RO and SRO-only outline sections (i.e., except for one category in Tier 3 of the SRO-only section, the Tier Totals in each K/A category shall not be less than two). (One Tier 3 radiation control K/A is allowed if it 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 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 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.

Change Rev. 2 ES-401 (STP LOT 21 RO Exam) Record of Rejected K/As Form ES-401-4 All replacement K/As were requested from the NRC Chief Examiner per ES-401 D.1.b.

Tier/Gro Randomly Selected Reason for Rejection up K/A 1/1 APE 008 AK1.01 This K/A tests knowledge of thermodynamics of a leaking or open valve associated with a Pressurizer vapor space accident. A (Outline Question 12) question for this K/A is similar to a question written K/A 010 K5.02 (Outline Question 9) on this exam. Therefore the K/A was replaced with APE 025 AK1.01.

1/1 EPE 009 EK3.12 This K/A tests the knowledge of the reason for a letdown isolation during a SBLOCA. There were not enough plausible distractors to (Outline Question 13) answer this K/A. Therefore the K/A was replaced with EPE 009 EK3.03.

1/1 APE 065 AA2.07 This K/A tests the ability to determine if backup nitrogen supply is controlling a valve upon the loss of IA. This is not applicable at STP.

(Outline Question 24) There are no valves that have an automatic backup nitrogen supply.

Therefore the K/A was replaced with APE 065 AA2.06.

1/2 APE 001 AK2.01 This K/A tests the knowledge of relations between rod bank step counters and continuous rod withdrawal. There were not enough (Outline Question 29) plausible distractors to answer this K/A. Therefore the K/A was replaced with APE 001 AK2.06.

1/2 APE 061 AA1.01 This K/A tests the ability to operate or monitor automatic actuations associated with ARMs. There are no auto actions associated with (Outline Question 34) the ARMs at STP. Therefore the K/A was replaced with APE 037 AA1.11.

2/1 076 K4.03 This K/A tests the knowledge of the automatic opening features associated with SWS isolation valves to CCW heat exchangers.

(Outline Question 52) This does not apply at STP. These valves have no automatic opening features. Therefore the K/A was replaced with 076 K4.02.

2/1 078 G2.2.3 This K/A tests the differences between units associated with IA system. There is nothing of significance that is different with IA (Outline Question 53) between the two units at STP. Therefore the K/A was replaced with 078 G2.1.30.

2/2 033 A3.02 This K/A tests the ability to monitor automatic operations of the SFPCS. There is no auto functions associated with this K/A at STP.

(Outline Question 60) Therefore the K/A was replaced with 016 A3.02.

2/2 045 K5.18 This K/A tests the knowledge of the purpose of low power reactor trips as applied to MT/B system. There were not enough plausible (Outline Question 62) distractors to answer this K/A. Therefore the K/A was replaced with 045 K5.01.

2/2 072 A2.01 This K/A predicts the impacts of a malfunction on the ARM system and use procedures to mitigate the consequences of an erratic or (Outline Question 64) failed power supply. There were not enough plausible distractors to answer this K/A. Therefore the K/A was replaced with 075 A2.03.

3 G2.1.39 This K/A tests the knowledge of conservative decision-making. The question written was determined to have a LOD of 1. Therefore, the (Outline Question 68) K/A was replaced with G2.1.40.

Tier/Group Randomly Selected Reason for Rejection K/A 1/1 EPE 025 AA2.03 This K/A tests the ability to determine an increasing RCB sump level upon a loss of RHR. This event applies to an off-normal (Outline Question 77) procedure and only 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> TS or less action statements at STP.

An SRO only question could not be written. Therefore, the K/A was replaced with W E04 EA2.1.

1/1 W E11 G2.2.37 This K/A is a generic K/A that determines operability of safety related equipment associated with the Loss of Emergency (Outline Question 81) Coolant Recirculation. There was too much overlap with this K/A and associated question with Outline Question 76 on this exam.

Therefore, the Generic portion of the K/A was kept but replaced to APE 057.

1/2 APE 037 A2.11 This K/A tests the ability to determine when to isolate a SG as it applies to the off-normal. There was no plausibility for an SRO (Outline Question 83) only question. Therefore, the K/A was replaced with W/E09 EA2.1.

1/2 APE 069 G2.2.40 This K/A is a generic K/A to test the ability to apply Tech Specs and is related to Loss of Containment Integrity. This K/A was (Outline Question 84) changed in order to avoid over sampling of TS on the SRO exam and also due to the majority of the TS associated with it being a 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> or less action. Therefore, the K/A was replaced with APE 059 G2.3.6.

2/1 008 G2.2.25 This K/A is a generic K/A to test knowledge of TS bases and was associated with CCW. There was no plausibility for an SRO (Outline Question 87) only question. Therefore, the Generic portion of the K/A was kept but replaced to 061 system.

2/2 041 G2.4.21 This K/A is a generic K/A to test knowledge of the parameters and logic used to assess the status of safety functions and was (Outline Question 93) associated with Steam Dumps. The generic portion of this K/A did not match the system well and an SRO only question could not be written. Therefore, the Generic portion of the K/A was kept but replaced to 017 system.

3 G2.2.1 This K/A tests the ability to perform pre-startup procedures including operating the controls associated with equipment that (Outline Question 96) could affect reactivity. A plausible SRO only question could not be written for this K/A. Therefore, the K/A was replaced with G2.2.43.

3 G2.4.45 This K/A tests the ability to prioritize alarms. A question was written for this K/A. However, it was decided to replace it to (Outline Question 100) avoid over sampling of questions regarding TS on the SRO exam. Therefore, this K/A was replaced with G2.4.27.
