ATTACHMENT 1 Resolution to Facility Comments on Monticello R0 License Examination of March 2, 1988 QUESTION 1.12 Facility Comment: Double-jeopardy question - cannot answer second half of question if first half was not understood.

NRC Response: Disagree with comment. This question was not asked in two distinct parts. It was worded as part of the same integrated question to determine whether the candidate had complete and overall understanding of the term "reactivity anomaly." This includes why it may occur.

QUESTION 1.14(c) and (d)

Facility Comment: Rod Worth will tend to follow the keff vs. core age curve and will tend to decrease over core life for part (c). Part (d) should be "remains the same." The change in fuel temperature results in an insignificant change in Rod Worth.

NRC Response: For part (c) the answer key already shows "decrease" as a correct answer. Will however also accept "will follow keff vs. core age curve." For part (d) the reference supplied by the facility just states that this effect is small in comparison with the other effects. It does not support the statement that it "remains the same."

QUESTION 2.01 Facility Comment: Due to a recent design change on ',ne HPCI System, the answer is incorrect for current onditions. Should also accept "no adverse action." The rarrp generator is initiated from both the stop salve and the steam admission I supply valve (M0-2036) opening. HPCI should start normally, NRC Response: This recent design change was not depicted in references a originally supplied to the examiner. During the exam, the candidate mentioned this design change to the examiner.

i Tha examiner directed the candidate to then just describe the recent design change instituted to prevent any adverse

auto 7atic action in this case. Thus the question and answer key have been changed to reflect this additional guidance to the candidate.

L_

QUESTION 2.04 Facility Comment: Answer is incorrect as stated. A high drywell pressure will cause a full, not partial, Group II Isolation.

NRC Response: Group III isolation was a typographical error; thus, the answer key will be changed to a Group II isolation.

Operations Manual B.4.2. states that this is a partial Group II isolation while the reference supplied by the facility indicates a full Group II isolation. Either is acceptable for credit.

QUESTION 2.08(d)

Facility Comment: RHRSW side of heat exchangers are not normally flushed.

Also, question did not specify which side of heat exchanger. Condensate service water provides flushing for the RHR side of the heat exchanger.

NRC Response: Operations Manual B.8.1.3, Page 3, states that "the demineralized water supply line provides water for flushing the heat exchanger after the system has been operationally tested." However, as indicated in the facility comment, the question did not pecify which side of the heat exchanger. Therefore, either Demineralized Water System or Condensate Service Water is acceptable for full cred R.

QUESTION 2.09 Facility Comment: Upon sensing decreasing pressure, the standby pump will start. However, a runback, if initiated, due to low pressure will not be seen by the operator. The time that the runback is in effect will not cause the speed / load changer to affect the Turbine Control System.

NRC Response: Will accept either turbine runback or automatic start of the standby pump on low inlet pressure for full credit.

QUESTION 2.16 Facility Comment: Question does not look for a technical specification based answer. Other reasonable answers should be accepted.

NRC Response: The cited reference specifically states that the items given in the answer are the major concerns. However, will accept other reasonable concerns.

I 2

l

QUESTION 3.02 Facility Comment: Answer (d) should be considered because the operator knew enough to notify the control room, and at Monticello that is the way of notifying the fire brigade.

NRC Response: The purpose of the question was to determine whether the candidate knew that the flashing red warning light and the alarm klaxon at the entrance to the Compressed Gas Storage .

Building signified an area radiation alarm. The question specifically stated that there was.only one possible answer. Answer (b) is the only correct answer. While it may be sufficient for particular site personnel to only know enough to call the Control Room under these conditions, a licensed individual should know specifically what the conditions mean in case he receives the call.

-QUESTION 3.05 Facility Comment: Due to a design change for RWM, answer (a) or (b) should be considered because the question only looked for one response.

NRC Response: This recent design change was not depicted in references originally supplied to the examiner. Due to this design change, either answer (a) or (b) is acceptable for full credit.

QUESTION 3.12(a)

Facility Comment: High-high alarm will still result in a stack isolation regardless of whether or not the Storage System is being used.

NRC Response: Agree with facility comment. Although reference cited in answer key does not indicate this, the drawing provided by the facility does; therefore, answer key will be changed to "Stack Isolation."

QUESTION 3.15(c)

Facility Comment: Other answers should be accepted. Answers such as:

(1) RBM IN0P trip light on C37 (2) RBM IN0P alarm on C05 (3) Process computer alarm (4) C05 benchboard indicating light for Hi-Hi/INOP (5) C05 Recorder fails downscale (6) Rod withdrawal block based on RBM INOP NRC Response: Disagree with facility comment. The question specifically asks for indications other than a RBM IN0P trip and its associated indications.

QUESTION 3.17 Facility Comment: What is covered ab;ut this system is purpose and general function. System specific details, as was asked in the question, are not covered. By our surveillance procedure, the only operator interface with the system is to do the valve lineups.

NRC Response: The calibration procedure supplied by the facility only indicates who operates the Hydrogen-0xygen Analyzing System sw!tch during a calibration check. It in no way indicates who operates this system under real post-accident conditions. The actual operating procedures in Operations Manual B.4.3 do not indicate who is responsible for each step in either the startup, shutdown, or post-accident conditions. (Steps that an operator would clearly do are not delineated from any other steps.) Since this system is required by Monticello technical specifications and the position of this particular control room switch has a direct bearing on operability of the system, it is not unreasonable to require candidate to know the significance of each of these switch positions. In addition, this knowledge is supported by NUREG-1123 K/A ratings of 3.5 and above. In light of no other references supplied by the facility to properly support this comment, the answer remains unchanged.

QUESTION 4.01 i

Facility Comment: Question is misleading. The procedure in question does

, not restrict us to withdraw only. The E0Ps allow us to use elevated drive pressure to insert control rods.

!C D+ - NRC Response: Operations Manual B.1.3, "Control Rod Hydraulic System,"

Section VI.F.1.1, "Operation of a CRD Under High Drive Pressure," g!ves instructions to "follow the procedure below for CRD withdrawal, but not for insertion." The only insert signals applied in the procedure are an attempt to unlatch a drive with a series of insert and withdraw signals followed by actual withdrawal of the rod. In addition, Operations Manual C.4-B.1.3.B, "Control Rod Drive Failure," gives instructions to "not increase drive pressure beyond 265 psig to insert a control rod. Elevated drive pressure beyond 265 psig above reactor pressure should only be used to withdraw a control rod." The. basis of this procedure goes on to say that "elevated drive pressure may be used to withdraw a drive but not to insert one.

Increased drive pressure to insert a stuck rod may lead to sticking of the directional control valves." However, Operations Manual C.5-1103, "RPV Power Control," Steps 0.8 and 15 B do prescribe using elevated drive pressure to insert control rods. Due to this apparent contradiction between the various Monticello procedures, this question is being deleted from the exam.

QUESTION 4.07 Facility Comment: The intent of the 5 minutes is to ensure that the controller has rundown to minimum. In doing this review, the answer in the answer key was not found in the reference document, therefore, should accept any reasonable answer.

NRC Response: The answer given in the facility comment is just another way of saying what is in the answer key. Alternate methods of saying the same thing is acceptable as long as it is clear that the concept is understood.

i 5

QUESTION 4.08(c)

Facility Comment: This question is unreasonable to expect an operator to know from memory the decay chains of various isotopes.

NRC Response: Agree with comment. The question is deleted from the answer key. The odds are that two different isotopes of two different elements will not decay in exactly the same way with the same energies. The argument still exists, however, failing to make this assumption, the candidate was not given all information required to answer the question.

UEI I OUESTION 4.13 (1.00) A spurious trip of both Reactor Feedpurips with degraded emergency high pressure injection systens causes reactor water level to drop below the low-low level setpoint. Prior to reaching the top of the active fuel, feedwater flow to the vessel is restored and resetor w0ter level stabilizes and slowly begins increasing. The reactor operator notes that the Automatic Depressurization System (ADS) 107 second timer is still counting down and that there is not enough tinie reniaining to restore Icvel to above the low-low level setpoint prior to automatic initiation of ADS. Operations Hanval E:. 3.3 'Resetor Prescure Relief Systeni ' states that the ADS inhibit shocid not be used unless the HPCI, RCIC or reactor feedwater systes.s have returned the reactor level to above the low-low level trip setting. However, Operations Manual C.5-1101 I 'RPV Level Coritrol' prescribes that if RpV water level can be maintained above the top of the active fuel and the ADS tin.cr has initiated ther, prevent autoniatic RPV depressurization by placing the ADS Inhibit switches i n INHIE:IT. The tisie reniainin3 before autos.stic initiation of ADS is insufficient for consultation with other personnel. CHOOSE which ONE of the f ollowing actions should be taken under these circusistances:

a. Inhibit autoniatic ADS initiation.
b. Allow ADS to autoniatically initiate.
c. Anticipate an autoniatic initiation of ADS and therefore sianual l y initiate ADS prior to that tisie as conservative l action.

d. Avoid a f ailure to follow procedure by decreasing f eedwater flow such that reactor water level drops to below the top of the active fuel before ADS autoniatically initiates.
