Examiner Observations

L l

During preparation of the written and operating examinations, the

[

examiners found'the reference material provided by the facility to be well indexed and properly labeled which allowed the examiners to

. efficiently locate and extract necessary information.

However, the examiners found the system lesson plans, in general, to be lacking the in-depth description of system operations, interlocks, and interconnections with other systems as well as containing techncially incorrect information'on a few occasions.

In addition, one complete L

section of. simulator malfunctions was missing from the provided t.

material. The following are a few specific examples of reference t

material deficiencies:

System 17, Safety Injection, Lesson Plan did not contain detailed information concerning system operations, associated system interlocks, and interconnections with other plant systems.

The entire section of malfunctions pertaining to the Main Steam System was missing from the Simulator Information Book.

This section of malfunctions was provided to the examiners upon request.

System 19, Reactor Protection, Lesson Plan,'page 19 incorrectly states that the setpoint for a steam generator low level reactor trip is 23.5 percent.

The actual setpoint is 14.8 percent.

This was identified by the facility representatives during the I

pre-examination review of the written examinations.

The facility is encouraged to ensure that System Lesson Plans are technically correct, and consistent with Plant Operating Procedures to preclude training on technically incorrect and contradictory l

information.

l During the quality assurance review of the grading of the written examinations, one generic knowledge deficiency on the part of the i

candidates was identified concerning the requirements and control of entry into radiologically controlled areas.

l 2

l

p, F

j p

A common question to the R0 and SRO examinations concerning requirements n

1

['

for entry into a radiologically controlled area was incorrectly answered by five out of seven candidates.

The question as stated on the SR0 examination was as follows:

l Which ONE of the following correctly describes the entry precautions and t

limitations / requirements in accordance with HTP-ZZ-06001, "High Radiation (HRA)/Very High Radiation Areas (VHRA)"?

A.

Personnel escorted by Health Physics are exempt from having a RWP for entry into an HRA.

B.

All entries to areas inside the Biological Shield at power require a SRWP written specifically for that entry.

C.

Entries to VHRA must have continuous Health Physics coverage.

D.:

Any individual that is permitted to enter a HRA is required to only have a TLD and a self-reading pocket dosimeter in their possession.

In accordance with HTP-ZZ-06001 Rev. 11, the only correct response is Choice A.

Contrary to this, the candidates incorrectly chose a variety of the remaining three choices.

Additionally, three out of four SRO candidates incorrectly answered a question concerning the issuance of keys required to enter locked radiologically controlled areas.

This question, which was used exclusively on the SR0 examination, was rtated as follows:

Which ONE of the following correctly describes how keys are controlled for issuance to locked areas in accordance with HTP-ZZ-06031, "High Radiation (HRA)/Very High Radiation Area (VHRA) Access"?

A.

The Shift Supervisor shall authorize issuance of the key needed for entry into the incore instrument tunnel only after he verifies that the incore thimbles are fully inserted into the core and that the moveable incore detectors are'in their stored positions, and WPA is hung on the supply breaker to the incore detector drive units.

B.

Plant personnel may be issued keys to a HRA at the Key Issue Station after receiving verbal authorization from Health Physics.

C.

A VHRA Access Request Form must be approved by the Health Physics Supervisor and the Shift Supervisor prior to issuance of a VHRA key for the Reactor Building.

D.

Distributions of keys to areas under HRA key control shall be restricted to Health Physics personnel and the Shift Supervisors key ring.

In accordance with HTP-ZZ-06001, Rev. 11, the only correct response is Choice B.

Contrary to this, the candidates incorrectly chose either Choice A or C.

V

' ~

The above two examples demonstrates a knowledge deficiency on the part of

[

the candidates of the requirements and control of entry into radiologically controlled areas. Tht' facility is encouraged to cover this area during scheduled requalification training to ensure that this knowledge deficiency is not generic to all licensed plant personnel.

E During the administration of the Operating Examinations the following strengths in the candidates' performance were observed by the examiners in the majority of the candidates that were examined in each particular ability:

The candidates' ability to reference and utilize system flow diagrams was very gcod.

The candidates' ability to keep plant personnel outside of the control room informed of plant status by use of the plant page system was very good.

An additional comment is that the examiners felt that the plant general housekeeping program is doing a good job at maintaining plant appearance as well as plant cleanliness.

3.

Exit Meeting An exit meeting was held to discuss the aforementioned examiner observations as well as the simulation facility report, as contained in Section 5 of this report, on October 20, 1989, with facility management and training staff representatives.

REFERENCE:

OT0-BB-00002, Pgs. 3-5 NRC RESPONSE:

P Comment not accepted.

The supplied reference is a systems lesson plan which is not controlled material, and not used to operate the plant.

The off normal operating procedure OT0-BB-00002, " Reactor Coolant Pump Off-Normal," was used by the NRC to develop the question.

Step 5.1.1 of OTO-BB-00002 requires the operator to trip the reactor and turbine and trip the affected RCP (answer Choice c) if vibration exceeds 5 mils on the frame, or 20 mils on the shaft.

Contrary to this, indication No. 2 clearly states that RCP frame vibration is at 5 mils and an oscilalting band of.5 mils wide or more should not be assumed.

Therefore, Choice c is incorrect and will not be accpepted.

The facility is encouraged to ensure that system lesson plan technical content is consistent with actual plant operating procedures.

Consideration will be given to recommended rewording of the question for future examinations.

REFERENCE:

System 3, Standby Generation, Pg. 23 L

NRC RESPONSE:

Comment not accepted.

Since the Overspeed Trip Hechanism, Column A, Part C, specifically does not move the fuel racks to the no fuel position, Column B, Item 2 is an incorrect response for Part C.

In addition, recommended correct responses 4 and 7 of Column B are functions of the Engine Shutdown Relay and not the Overspeed Trip Mechanism.

Since there are no correct responses from Column B for the Overspeed Trip Mechanism, Part C has been deleted.

The p

. answer key has been revised to reflect this.

In accordance with System 3, Standby Generation, Page 20 and TP-22, the generator output breaker will trip automatically following an emergen:y start by either the Differential Current Relay or the Engine Shutdown Relay.

Since recommended correct response 7 of Column B is a function of the Engine Shutdown Relay and not a direct function of Differential Current Relay, it will not be accepted as a correct response.

Therefore, the only correct response that will be accepted for Column A, Item C will be Column B, Item 4.

No revisions to the answer key are required for this Item.

QUESTION:

17 (1.00)

Which ONE of the following describes the effect of a loss of DC power to the Emergency Diesel Generator:

(1.0) a.

On a diesel generator automatic start, the generator would not come up to rated voltage, since the generator field would not be established.

b.

The voltage droop mode of operation would be inoperable.

Therefore, reactive load sharing with the generator in parallel with off-site power would not be allowed, c.

Manual shutdown of the diesel generator with the exciter shutdown pushbutton on the Local Generator Control Panel would not be possible.

d.

Starting air from the air receivers could not be manually supplied to the engine cranking.

Therefore, the diesel generator would not start.

Simulator malfunction EPS-7 provides for a loss of 125 VDC distribution bus NK04. This action should result in a loss i

of 120 VAC Instrument Bus NN04 also, since NK04 supplies the L

inverter which feeds instrument bus NN04. Contrary to this, the loss of NK04 did not result in a loss of NN04.

3.

Low failure of radiation process monitors incorrectly 30 resulted in interlock functions such as Control Room Ventilation Isolation, Containment Purge Isolation, and Fuel Handling Building Ventilation Isolation to occur.

This incorrect simulator response had already been identified by the facility and corrective actions were taken prior to administration of the simulator portion of the operating examinations.
