1.

a.

Verify that the outline(s) fit(s) the appropriate model, in accordance with ES-401 or ES-401 N.

b.

Assess whether the outline was systematically and randomly prepared in accordance with T

Section D.1 of ES-401 or ES-401 N and whether all K/A categories are appropriately sampled. 7_

c.

Assess whether the outline over-emphasizes any systems, evolutions, or generic topics.

7_ 4 d.

Assess whether the justifications for deselected or rejected K/A statements are appropriate.

2.

a.

Using Form ES-301-5, verify that the proposed scenario sets cover the required number of normal evolutions, instrument and component failures, technical specifications, and major S

transients.

M b.

Assess whether there are enough scenario sets (and spares) to test the projected number and U

mix of applicants in accordance with the expected crew composition and rotation schedule L

without compromising exam integrity, and ensure that each applicant can be tested using at A

least one new or significantly modified scenario, that no scenarios are duplicated from the T

applicants audit test(s), and that scenarios will not be repeated on subsequent days.

c.

To the extent possible, assess whether the outline(s) conform(s) with the qualitative and quantitative criteria specified on Form ES-301-4 and described in Appendix D.

3.

a.

Verify that the systems walk-through outline meets the criteria specified on Form ES-301 -2:

(1) the outline(s) contain(s) the required number of control room and in-plant tasks distributed W

among the safety functions as specified on the form

,iJ A

(2) task repetition from the last two NRC examinations is within the limits specified on the form L

(3) no tasks are duplicated from the applicants audit test(s)

K (4) the number of new or modified tasks meets or exceeds the minimums specified on the form (5) the number of alternate path, low-power, emergency, and RCA tasks meet the criteria on T

the form.

H R

b.

Verify that the administrative outline meets the criteria specified on Form ES-301-1:

o (1) the tasks are distributed among the topics as specified on the form U

(2) at least one task is new or significantly modified G

(3) no more than one task is repeated from the last two NRC licensing examinations

H c.

Determine if there are enough different outlines to test the projected number and mix of applicants and ensure that no items are duplicated on subsequent days.

4.

a.

Assess whether plant-specific priorities (including PRA and IPE insights) are covered in the 9j4 appropriate exam sections.

f/f E

b.

Assess whether the 10 CFR 55.41/43 and 55.45 sampling is appropriate.

E c.

Ensure that K/A importance ratings (except for plant-specific pnonties) are at least 2.5.

q d.

Check for duplication and overlap among exam sections.

i L

e.

Check the entire exam for balance of coverage.

f.

Assess whether the exam fits the appropriate job level (RO or SRO 4 f a.

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 1

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 1tT systems/evolutionsthatare not induded on the outline should be added. Refer to Section D.1.b of ES-401N 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 L

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 I

selected. Use the RO and SRO ratings for the RO and SRO-only portions, respectively.

7 fjL. 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 I and 2 shall be selected from Section 2 of the K/A Catalog, but the topics must 4t be relevant to the applicable evolution or system. Refer to Section D.1.b of ES-401 N 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 V

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). LIRe dupliQate pages fer RO and RO-anly exams. Al/A - - gef,a.

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 N-3. Limit SRO selections to K/As that are linked to 10 CFR 55.43.

Safety Function a.

Recover a dropped control rod.

==

Description:==

The unit is at 65% power and rod H14 has fully dropped into the core. The candidate is directed to re-align rod H14 to its bank at 82 steps in accordance with 3-AOP-104 (Rod M

Control System Malfunction) Attachment 2 (Move Individual Rod or Group to Realign Rods).

SF1 DRCS A4.09 RO/SRO 4.0 b.

Perform RCS Blended Makeup

==

Description:==

With the unit at 80% reactor power, the candidate is directed to perform a 150 gallon blended makeup to the RCS in accordance with 3-CVS-SOP-001 (Chemical and Volume N, S 2

Control System) Attachment 3 (RCS Makeup System Operation).

SF2 CVS A4.04 RO/SRO 3.5 c.

Reduce RCS Pressure Using ADS Valves

==

Description:==

The unit has been shutdown due to a steam generator tube leak. The candidate is directed to lower RCS pressure via ADS in accordance with 3-AOP-1 03 (Steam Generator Tube Leak) to less than 1920 psig. When attempting A, EN, L, M, to place Division A ADS in service to lower pressure, a S

malfunction occurs requiting ADS Division B to be placed in service.

SF3 ADS A4.04 RO/SRO 4.1

U.

Respond to Condensate System Malfunctions in Accordance With AOP-202

==

Description:==

The unit is at 59% reactor power with CDS Pump A degraded. The candidate is directed to perform 3-AOP-202 (Condensate System Malfunctions) due to the reduced discharge pressure on CDS Pump A. During performance, CDS Pump A will trip and CDS Pump C will have a sheared shaft, requiring the candidate to manually run back the unit. Once the run back is complete, CDS Pump B will trip, requiring a Reactor Trip, securing all Main Feed Pumps, and securing SG blowdown.

SF4S CDS A4.04 ROISRO 2.8 e.

Shutdown VES

==

Description:==

A spurious Main Control Room Isolation occurred.

The candidate is required to remove VES from service in accordance with AOP-501 (Loss of Main Control Room Air N, S 8

Conditioning) Attachment 1 (Alternate MCR Cooling).

SF8 VES A4.01 RO/SRO 3.6 f.

Manual Reset of SR High Flux Signal

==

Description:==

The unit tripped from 100% reactor power.

IRNI Excore Detector A failed after the trip. The candidate is required to perform 3-EOP-ES-0. 1 (Reactor Trip Response) steps 28 and

29. During performance, the candidate will restore blowdown to A, L, D, S 7

sample the steam generators and re-energize SRNI A at the PDSP.

SF7 NIS K4.08 RO/SRO 4.0 g.

Verify Containment Isolation in Accordance With FR-Z.3

==

Description:==

The unit was tripped due to a small RCS leak.

Entry into FR-Z.3 (Response to High Containment Radiation) is required. The candidate is directed to perform FR-Z.3. During A EN L D performance, VFS valve failures require the candidate to restore

9 a ventilation flowpath for VAS by securing VFS-MA-O1A, closing the failed valves, and starting VFS-MA-02B.

FR-Z.3 EA1.03 RO/SRO 3.1 h.

Warm the Main Steam Lines

==

Description:==

The unit is being held at 557 °F Tavg. The candidate is directed to re-open the MSIVs, close the MSIV bypass valves, and place steam dumps in service holding 1085 L
