REPORT DETAILS

1. Examiners T. Burdick T. Reidinger F. Jaggar, INEL B. Picker, INEL P. Isaksen, INEL
2. Examination Review Meeting No meeting was held. The examiners left copies of the SR0 and R0 exams with the licensee for review and comment. Comments and their resolutions are enclosed as an attachment to this report.

3. Exit Meeting On September 20, 1985, the Region III examiners met with members of the Byron plant staff and the NRC resident inspectors to discuss generic weaknesses identified during the operating examinations. One major concern the examiners had was the candidates' use of symptomatic procedures. It appeared that the candidates would not take corrective action unless directed to do so by the procedure which is not entered unless there is a reactor trip or safety injection. A number of situations arose in which the event did not cause an inmediate reactor trip or safety injection, such as steam generator tube ruptures, feed line breaks, or primary depressurization. In these cases the operators demonstrated a lower level of confidence and a reduced capability to terminate the event in a timely manner because they did not enter the symptomatic procedure for an extended period of time. When the examiners suggested that the operators should initiate the necessary reactor trip and/or safety injection to enter the procedures a licensee staff member stated such action causes an undesired shock to the plant systems.

On completion of the operating examinations during the week of October 14, 1985, the INEL contract examiners met with members of the plant staff and NRC residents to discuss generic weaknesses. They cited the following items:

a. General unfamiliarity with Nuclear Instrumentation systems.
b. Superficial usage and evaluation of Technical Specifications.
c. E-0 does not verify total ECCS flow,
d. Procedure usage and compliance.
e. There is no clear acceptance criteria for channel check performance.

Byron Reactor Operator Examination .

Facility Comment

~1.6 Candidates may have used 1x10 ' amps as point of adding heat. This information would have come from Byron Startup Test 52.33.

Examiner's Response Although 1% is approximately closer to 10 ' amps the answer key also allowed (1 to 10) x 10 ' amps as acceptable. Answer key was amended.

Facility Comment 1.11 a. Alternate answer: Condensate depression is the amount condensate is subcooled.

Examiner's Response Although the answer key is the technical definition, the alternate answer will be acceptable.

Facility Comment 1.12 Alternate answer: "a" section of curve more restrictive because in case of small break LOCA top of core could be uncovered longer. (uncovered first recovered last)

Examiner's Response The alternate answer by the facility is a translation of the answer key. It is part of the answer key. No amendments to answer key.

Facility Comment 1.13 b. Alternate Answer: Cold Shutdown surveillance requirement T.S. 4.1.1.2.b (Any 3 of 6)

(1) RCS boron concentration (2) Control rod position (3) RCS av'erage temperature (4) Fuel burnup (5) Xe concentration (6) Sm concentration Examiner's Response The facility alternative answer supplied three additional responses, answer key was amended.

3

Facility Comment 1.15 Additional answers: Reference Lesson Plan LO15 pages 22 through 29 Source Range High Neutron Flux Intermediate Range High Neutron Flux Power Range High Neutron Flux (Low Range)

Power Range High Neutron Flux (High Range)

OPAT Steam Generator Low-Low Level Turbine Trip Containment High Pressure Manual SI, Low Steam Line Pressure Manual Reactor Trip Examiner's Response It is my opinion that the facility misread the question, such as they based their answer key on reactor trip's that are based on DNB. The question asked the reverse. No amendment to answer key.

Facility Comment 2.4 Answer Key: " Manual actuation" not required only whether the question was True or False.

Examiner's Response Examiner concurs to comment, it was intended only for clarification.

Facility Comment 2.10 Answer key is reversed, that is, b is the answer to a and a is the answer to b. Verified by Project 0AD.

Examiner's Response The error was corrected in the answer key.

Facility Comment 2.12 Training has indoctrinated the candidates to associate " protective trips" with reactor trips, turbine trips, pump trips. The lesson plan that is referenced in the answer key is associated with FW 009 interlock. For this reason we request this question be deleted.

4

Examiner's Response The question will be deleted although the question was taken verbatim from the lesson plans provided for the training examinations. The lesson plan terminology doesn't support or reflect the facility indoctrination related to protective trips.

Facility Comment 2.13 SI minimum flow valves are manually closed by the operator when switching to Cold Leg recirc.; Example - BEP ES 1.3 step 5.

Examiner's Response The question solicited whct the basic reason for the flow valves for the safety injection system when RCS pressure is 1835 psig, to wit; provide flow path for pump recirculation at 1833 psig until pressure is below shut off head of pump. No mention in question for cold leg recirculation. The alternative first part answer will not be accepted. The second part of facility's comment is a translation of answer key. Their comment noted.

Facil.ity Comment 2.14 Additional answers: FSAR 5.4-23

-Limits Steam Generator internal stress

-Limits Main steamline piping stresses

-Limits RCS cooldown

-Limits containment pressure rise Examiner's Response The answer key will be amended only to accept "-Limits RCS cooldown" as the remaining listed answers are essentially indirectly derived from RCS cooldown.

Facility Comment 2.18 Letdown orifice isolation valve interlocks are:

a. Pzr level > 17%
b. Letdown isolation valves (LCV-459/460) are open
c. Phase A isolation reset (This is a recent modification)

Charging pump running as stated in the answer key is not an interlock for these valves.

5

Examiner's Response Since the recent modification was not supplied to the NRC examiners it will not be accepted. The answer key will reflect the first two answers listed in the facility's comment.

Facility Comment 2.20 d. Candidates could have included for the Main Generator 1,361,000 KVA 1,175 MW 0.9 Power Factor Examiner's Response The additional responses will be accepted.

Facility' Comment 3.7 Delta I exceeds + 10%

T.S. Table 2.2-1 (Recent T.S. change)

Examiner's Response The facility provided material that reflected a different target band initially. The answer key will reflect this data.

Facility Comment 3.19 Load rejection controller dead band has been changed to 4*.

Ref. PLS June 5, 1985.

Possible 5th answer is the error bistables have different setpoints.

Examiner's Response The examiner's notes that it is a recent modification and will be accepted.

Facility Comment 3.18 1. "A" Jockey pump auto starts at 145 psig "B" Jockey pump auto starts at 140 psig Ref: BOP-FP-3 Examiner's Response The jockey pumps setpoints are acceptable. Answer key will be amended although the lesson plans reflects slightly different setpoints.

! Facility Comment 3.20 Additionally the motor operated discharge valve closes on an SI.

Examiner's Response Will accept the additional answer. The examiner's notes that the question and answer were taken verbatim from the facility question bank.

Facility Comment 4.6 Please consider the list of parameters listed in BEP ES 01 Step 14:

Subcooling Steam Pressure stable Hot leg temperature ,

10 highest TC Cold leg temperature There could have been some confusion as to whether the R0 was monitoring Natural Circ. cooldown or the establishing of Natural Circ.

. Examiner's Response The facility makes comment that there was confusion whether the R0 was monitoring Natural Circ cooldown or the establishing of Natural Circ. No R0 candidate during the examination period expressed any confusion about the question. The question stated Byron Natural Cooldown procedure and asked for specific parameters for cooldown. The examiner notes that the supplied answer is extracted from the Reactor Trip procedure vice the Natural Cooldown procedure. The additional answers will be accepted.

Facility Comment 4.8 a. During refueling when the more restrictive of the following reactivity conditions is not met.

Keff of .95 or less or Boron concentration of Greater than or equal to 2000 ppm. This means euergency boration is required if Keff is 0.95 or greater or Boron Concentration is 2000 ppm or less.

Examiner's Response The supplied answer is word for word for answer key. The examiner's notes the facility's comment about the exact interpretation of the answer key. No answer i

revision noted.

Facility Comment 4.15 Per recent procedure revision BOA-ENV-1 the diesel generators are no longer started. They are checked and prepared for standby conditions.

Examiner's Response The examiner's notes the procedure revision and will amend the answer key.

Facility Comment 4.14 Possible optional answer: BRP 1000-Al 125 REM Thyroid for less urgent action.

Examiner's Response ,

The alternative answer is still optional. The examiner notes that the thyroid is not an extremity as called for in the question.

Facility Comment 4.18 Optional answer would be:

Place channel in test by tripping bistables and pulling fuses.

Examiner's Response The optional answer is acceptable.

SECTION 1 PRINCIPLES OF NUCLEAR POWER PLANT OPERATIONS, THERMODYNAMICS, HEAT TRANSFER AND FLUID FLOW 1.1 Byron Unit 1 is operating at 100% power with all rods out and the core at end of life. The SR0 instructs you to decrease reactor power to 50% by boration leaving the rods out in order to maintain Delta I on target. He says that by not moving rods he will not affect power distribution and therefore AFD will remain constant. Do you agree or disagree with his assessment?

Justify your answer. (1.0) 1.2 Why is nitrogen-16 of major concern during plant operations but not a concern when the plant is shutdown? (1.0) 1.3 Answer the following True or False:

a. The production rate of xenon from iodine is faster than the decay rate of xenon to cesium. (.33)
b. During an increase in power from equilibrium xenon

._ conditions, xenon concentration initially decreases. (.33)

c. Slowing the rate of a power decrease lowers the height of the resultant xenon peak. (.33) 1.4 a. Are neutrons best shielded by light or heavy material? (.25)
b. Are gammas best shielded by light or heavy material? (.25) 1.5 a. Explain why the effective delayed neutron fraction changes from BOL to E0L, and how this affects reactor control. (1.0)
b. What two factors cause the delayed neutron fraction to be different than the effective delayed neutron fraction? (1.0) 1.6 With a constant startup rate of +.25 DPM and an initial power level of 10 10 amps, how long will it take for reactor power to reach 1%? State all assumptions and show all work. (1.5) 1.7 If the effective delayed neutron fraction is .0055 and there is 50 pcm of positive reactivity in the core, how much more positive reactivity, in pcm, can be added to the core before the core becomes prompt critical? (1.0)
1. 8 Why is the most negative reading on the source range meter

.5 DPM? (1.0) 1.9 Why does the moderator temperature coefficient have its least negative value at the beginning of the fuel cycle? (1.0) e

4 1.10 In preparation for reactor startup, you are directed to dilute the RCS with 400 gallons of water in 100 gallon increments. After completing the first 100 gallon addition, you observe the source range instruments have doubled their count rate. Would you proceed as directed to dilute the plant with a second 100 gallon addition? Explain.

(1.0) 1.11 a. Define condensate depression. (0.5)

b. What is the advantage and disadvantage of condensate depression? (0.5) 4 1.12 Fuel damage from a loss of coolant accident is strongly core height dependent as such that the F(Q) (total peaking factor) have different limits for each core elevation per j Figure 3.2-2. Explain why the K(Z) curve is more limiting in Sec, tion (a). (1.0)

, 1.13 a. How does the reactor operator ensure adequate shutdown margin when the reactor is operating? ,

(0.5)

b. What three factors must be considered to ensure adequate shutdown margin is maintained during cold shutdown?' (1.5) 1.14 How will a rod-drop affect reactor power in the following ,

situations? Assume rods are in manual and a reactor trip does not occur. Carry out the event until stable conditions are 4

achieved.

a. Reactor is just critical at 10 8 amps. (1.0)
b. Reactor is at 50% power. (1.5) 1.15 Byron Reactor Protection Chapter states that all reactor trips except two are based on DNB. Name these two reactor trips. (1.0) 1.16 Why will a reactor trip from 100% power without a turbine trip result in severe pressurized thermal shock? (1.5) 1.17 a. ,

What is RT NDT

? (1.0)

b. Why does RT NDT increase with reactor operation? (1.0) 1.18 a. How does the required NPSH of a centrifugal pump change with an increase in flow? (0.5)
b. Name two indications of pump cavitation. (0.5) j

l SECTION 2 PLANT DESIGN INCLUDING SAFETY AND EMERGENCY SYSTEMS 2.1 The reactor is in hot shutdown and. primary pressure is 1845, you are the R0 and Mr. Goodwrench (I&C) wishes to conduct maintenance on the turbine first stage pressure instrument.

Would you authorize him to do the maintenance? Defend your answer. (1.5) 2.2 According to Byron Technical Specifications the Power Range Nuclear Instrumentation is only required in power operations.

In spite of this fact, no more than one channel can ever be removed from service during shutocvn modes. Explain why. (1.0) 2.3 Which of the following will actuate tr,e Unit 1 Rod Control Urgent Failure annunciator light? (1.0)

a. ' Internal failure of the power cabinet because of failure of the slave cycler.
b. Internal failure of the logic cabinet due to the removal of a printed card.
c. Internal failure of the logic cabinet from phase failure detector,
d. Normal alarm occurring during the dropped rod recovery procedure.

2.4 Indicate whether the following statement is true or false. On Unit 1, the automatic reactor trip signal will cause both the undervoltage coil to deenergize and the shunt coil to operate. (1.0) 2.5 a. List the radiation monitoring systems that respond to a high radiation signal and initiate automatic actions to prevent the release or spread of radiation at Byron Unit 1. Be specific, list five (5) out of the eight (8) systems. (.75)

b. List all the automatic actions which are initiated in the event a high radiation signal is detected for five radiation monitoring systems. (.75) 2.6 Mr. Goodwrench has the one (1) diesel in test mode and loaded 3000 KW and a spurious SI signal is received from the results of a faulty test procedure. How does the diesel generator and its electrical load respond in this condition? (1.25) 2.7 While performing a cooldown with RCS temperature at 450* and l pressure at 1100 psig, Mr. Goodwrench (I&C) requests that he be allowed to calibrate two (2) 0-30 psig lower containment pressure
