  • Rogers, T., USNRC
  • Chief Examiner
3. Examination Review Meeting At the conclusion of the written examinations, the examiners provided Mr. H. McCallum with a copy of the written examinations and answer keys for review.: The following comments were made by the facility reviewers:
a. Reactor Operator Examination (1) Question 1.12 Comment: It is unclear from the question that a more detailed explanation as that required by the answer key is needed for full credit.

Recommendation: Either accept stating that fuel pellet swell and clad creep cause the doppler only power coefficient to become less negative over core life for full credit or weight the response so that a much greater proportion of the credit is given on the answer key for that portion of the response.

Reference:

No additional reference is required. NRC Resolution: Recommendation is not accepted. Clad creep and fuel pellet swell do not directly change the doppler coefficient. Without the temperature relationship between clad creep / pellet swell and doppler, full credit will not be awarded.

2 (2) Ouestion 2.02, Part 3 Comment: The answer given on the answer key for the normal power supply to 4160v bus IA breaker control power is not correct. The 125VDC vital bus (selection "e") is the correct choice. Recommendation: Change answer key to require selection "e" for Part 3 of this question.

Reference:

System Description Manual, Volume 2, Station Service 4160 Distribution System, page 2-2 (Attachment S-1). NRC Resolution: Recommendation accepted. The answer key has been revised. (3) Question 2.04 Comment: The normal power source for the EHC System depends on turbine speed, which was not given in the question. Recommendation: Accept PMG or semi-vital bus as correct answers.

Reference:

Main Turbine and Support System Lesson Plan, pages 6.17and7.12(Attachments-2). NRC Resolution: Recommendation is not accepted. The additional reference clearly identifies the semi-vital bus as an emergency power supply and is used only when turbine speed is less than 80% speed. It is not reasonable to assume that the question is asking for the normal power source when the turbine is operating abnormally. (4) Question 2.07 Comments: (a) -There a,re five sources for AFW supply to each unit, whereas the antwer key only lists three. Since the question requested listing three, two additional acceptable selections need to be added to the key. (b) An additional method for aligning the AFW System without operator action outside the Control Room is available, if listed in part (a) of the question. Recommendations: (a) Add the following two possible AFW System supplies as two of the possible three requested: 1 300,000 gal. Condensate Storage Tank (CN-TK-2).

                                                         .3 t-                           2       Aux feed cross-tie from the other unit (b). When the aux feed cross-tie from the other unit is listed as response to part (a), it should be included in part (b), and should be given credit.-

Reference:

EP-1, Step 45, response not obtained column (Attachments-3). NRC Resolution: Recommendations accepted. The Surry Power Station Steam Generator Auxiliary Feed System Description and Qualification Manual is incomplete. (5) Question 2.10 Comment: The question does not ask for the conditions under which the seal bypass is necessary. Recommendation: Delete the 0.5 point deduction for not including the condition under which the seal bypass is necessary.

Reference:

No additional reference is required. NRC Resolution': Recommendation is not accepted. The plant conriition specified on the answer key is the reason the seal bypass valve is necessary. (6) Question 2.12 Comment: The maximum listed blowdown rate of 70 gpm can increase to approximately 75 gpm before the blowdown PCV closes. Recommendation: Accept any value between 70 - 75 gpm as the correct response.

Reference:

Steam Generator Blowdown Cooler design change descrip-tion, see lines 20, 21, and 199 through 204 (Attachment S-4). NRC Resolution: Any value of 70 5 gpm is considered acceptable for full credit. (7)-Question 2.13 Comment: This question could be answered true or false based on the statement given. Hydrazine is added by two motor driven, positive displacement pumps to the Condensate System only; there-fore, false could also be chosen. Recommendation: Delete the question.-

Reference:

No additional reference is required.

4

        ~ NRC Resolution: Recommendation is not accepted. The statement is.
        -always TRUE since no other system adds hydrazine to the feedwater system. The statement did not -include the point of connection to the secondary system.

(8) Question 2.16 Comment: The first part of the answer given in the key was essentially stated in the question which precludes an individual addressing it as part of the expected reply. The individual

         . responding is going to address those items that should have been removed but were not.-

Recommendation: Allow full credit for replies similar to that of the answer key's second part.

Reference:

No additional reference is required. NRC Resolution: Recommendation is accepted, in part. The first part has been deleted and the question has been reduced in point value to 0.5 points. Partial credit will be awarded for contain-ment isolation and to initiate / isolate SI to the cold leg. The answer key has been revised. (9) Question 2.18 Coment: Expecting operators to recall from memory the design basis for this piece of equipment does not support performance based training. During-the conditions listed on the answer key, an operator can take no actions that would affect the performance of this equipment. Additionally,.the question should have stated that three responses are required so that the person evaluated does not have to guess what the grader is expecting. Recommendation: Delete the question. 4

Reference:

No additional reference is required. NRC Resolution: Although we believe this question is relevant knowledge for an operator, NUREG-1122 does not give it an importance F factor. The utility's recommendation is therefore accepted and~

the question has been deleted.

l (10) Question 3.06, Part 1 Consnent: This question has two possible correct answers based on the assumed time after the detector failure. Immediately at time 4 of failure it goes to 72 S/M; or later it goes to O S/M. ' Assuming that those being examined would envision a longer period of-time

5 based on the length of time following the failure in which the procedure requires the control fuses to be removed is not a safe assumption. The relationship to the procedure could be discarded when it is noted that rods are in AUTO just prior to pulling the fuses, which is not in'accordance with procedure. Recommendation: Accept either (a) 0 S/M, or (e) 72 S/M. i

Reference:

No additional reference is required. NRC Resolution: Recommendation is not accepted. The operator would not know to pull the fuses unless he observed the failed indicator. With the indicator in the fully failed position, the power mismatch rate signal would no longer exist. (11) Question 3.12 Comment: Remote EHC load dispatch is not an allowable method of unit operation. Recommendation: Change answer key to: (a) Blocks auto rod withdrawal (b). Initiates load reference runback (c) Initiates load limit runback

Reference:

Student handout on permissives (Attachment S-5) NRC Resolution: Recommendation is accepted. The answer key has been revised. (12) Question 3.15 Comments: (a) TheLquestions did not specifically ask the power supplies to the RMP as required on the answer key. The blue lights being lighted, as given in the question statement, indicates that power is available to the RMP from each unit. (b) Committing to memory the significance of the amber and white light on the RMP is unnecessary, since it is readily apparent at the panel which unit is selected to supply power to the RMP. Recommendation: Accept power is avaijable from each unit, and one of the power sources has been selected to energize the RMP as satisfactory responses.

Reference:

No additional reference is required.

6 NRC Resolution: Recommendation is accepted. The answer key has been revised. (13) Question 3.16 Comment: The question did not request the specific values listed on tne answer key. Additionally, memorization of the exact values is not warranted as they are specified in the annunciator response procedure. Recommendation: Accept the following as adequately " explaining" the meaning of the sensor status lights: (a) Same as stated on the answer key (b) Margin to saturation is satisfactory (c) Alert that RCS is approaching margin to saturation (d) Conditions in the RCS have reached saturation

Reference:

No additional reference is required. NRC Resolution: Recommendation is accepted. The setpoints were not intended to be required. (14) Question 3.18 Comment: No answer was given on the answer key for Surry. Recommendation: Require as answer: (a) Condenser vacuum available (b) 1/4 condenser CW outlet valves not fully closed

Reference:

Instrumentation Manual, Chapter 6, Figure 6 (Attachment S-6). NRC Resolution: Recommendation is accepted; however, the 2/2 logic for condenser vacuum is required for full credit since it is required by the question. (15) Question 4.05 Comments: (a) There are other available correct responses for the first two blanks.

7 (b) 5 Rem per year is now the administrative limit as set by the Vice President, Nuclear Operations. Recommendation: (a) Accept any of the following combinations as satisfactory for ~ the first two blanks: 1 Supervisor, Health Physics - 1.25 Y Station Manager - 1.75 7 Vice President, Nuclear Operations (Corporate Management) - 2.25 4 Senior Vice President, Power Operations (Corporate Management) - 2.75 (b) Accept 5 R/yr for third blank.

NRC Resolution: Recommendations (a)3, (a)4, and (b) are accepted. (a)1 and (a)2 are not accepted because tTey do not have the autliority to extend the yearly dose. (16) Question 4.09 Comment: Emergency boration is not an immediate operator action by the ATWT procedure. Even if it were, the four responses required by the answer key are not necessary. Emergency boration is contained in substep 6.c. of ECA-1. Only two actions are - necessary to perform the task. Recommendation: Accept for full credit the two steps listed in the procedure: (a) Switch BATP to FAST speed (b) Open M0V-()350

Reference:

ECA-1, pages 2, 3, and 4 of 5 (Attachment S-9). NRC Resolution: Recommendation is accepted. The answer key has been revised. (17) Question 4.11, Part (b) Comment: Only MOV- numbers are listed on the answer key whereas verbal valve functions may also suffice.

8 Recommendation: Accept valve function as stated below as addi-tional satisfactory response: (a) MOV-102B . Can be stated as SW pump supply header or CC HX supply header isolation valve. (b) MOV-106 Condenser CW inlet isolation valve (s) (c) M0V-100 Condenser CW outlet isolation valve (s)

Reference:

No additional reference is required. i NRC Resolution: Recommendation is accepted since they are equiva-lent answers. (18) Question 4.12 ,. Comment: Inclusion of containment conditions normal as a Post-LOCA SI termination criteria should be deleted from the answer key. Although this item erroneously appears on the foldout page, it has been corrected in the body of the LOCA procedure. Recommendation: Remove " containment conditions nonnal" from the answer key and redistribute points to the five criteria as listed !- - on the answer key.

! NRC Resolution: Recommendation is accepted. The answer key has l been revised. l -(19) Question 4.14 i Conunent: This question could be answered.either true or false based on the examinees' interpretation of the presented statement. Since a safety injection signal does not start a containment spray pump, some examinees might assume the statement as false. If it. is assumed that a CLS signal was either automatically or manually initiated in addition.to the SI signal stated in the question,

                                   - then the reqeired actions for the failure of a containment spray

! pump to start are those stated, and the questions assumed true. ! Recommendations: Delete the' question.

(13) Question 8.03 Comment: Selection (d) is as correct as selection (b). Reconnendation: Accept either (b) or (d) as correct responses.

Reference:

No additional reference is required. Review TS 3.1-5, item 6.c. NRC Resolution: Selection (d) is neither correct nor as correct as selection (b). Removal of power from the block valve does not

12 completely satisfy 6.c. and therefore the reactor must be put in at least hot shutdown within the next six hours. To do this, keff must be reduced .to .9823 in accordance,with the definition of hot shutdown and subsequently Tave must be reduced to less than 200 F. No change is required. (14) Question 8.04 Comment: Selection (c) is as correct as selection (a). As worded, selection.(c) can be interpreted as if one rod is, in fact, inoperable and the plant is being operated below tee Tech Spec limit for this condition. The examiner meant for the opera-tor to- assume that all rods were operable and bank D was only below the more restrictive inoperable- Tech Spec curve. The poor wording of selection (c) allows for the alternate interpretation. Recommendation: Accept either (c) or (a) as correct responses.

Reference:

No additional reference is required. Review TS 3.12, c.5. NRC Resolution: Recommendation is accepted. The answer key has been revised. (15) Question 8.05 Comment: Selections for additional correct responses to sections F and G. are contained in column B and should be accepted as satisfactory. Recommendations: F. Accept-3. as an acceptable response. G. Accept 1. as an acceptable response.

Reference:

No additional reference is required. NRC Resolution: Recommendation is accepted. The answer key has been-revised. (16) Question 8.12 Comment: It is inappropriate to expect memorization of in-the-body steps of detailed procedures of this nature. The immediate general actions contained in EPIP-1.01 should more than suffice concerning expected. memorized steps contained in the Emergency Plan. Recommendation: Delete the question.

Reference:

No additional reference is required. NRC Resolution: ' Recommendation is accepted. .The question has been deleted. (17) Question 8.14 Comment: Due to the .ery non-restrictive nature of this specifi-cation, it seems totally inappropriate to expect memorization of such a low priority item. This was a very poor choice of ques-tions on Technical Specifications when such a large quantity of more pertinent material is required knowledge and was immediately available. Recommendation: Either delete the question or reduce its point value.

Reference:

No additional reference is required. NRC Resolution: Recommendation is accepted. The question has been deleted from the examination. [18) Question 8.15 Comment: This is an example of a trick question. The question solicits a response to "... how they communicate with the SS." The expected response is that they do not. However, communica-tions :are _ established with the SS by one of several means to notify him of personnel availability. Recommendation: Change part (2) of- the answer key to allow for any of the following correct responses: (a) PBX

(b) Ringdown phone (c) Station radio

Reference:

No additional reference is required. NRC Resolution: The second part of the question has been deleted from the examination. (19) Question 8.16

            ~Connent:    More than three responses exist for this question. The

, question could be answered in very general terms as in the answer key, or it could be answered more specifically. Recommendation: Accept any of the following as satisfactory responses:

9 14 (a) Jumper log use (b) Blue tag (special order tag) use (c). Independent verification requirement (d) Technical review by Engineering Dept. or STA

Reference:

Administrative Procedure 29.5, pages 13 and 14 (Attachments-12). NRC Resolution: Recommendation is accepted. The answer key has been revised.

c. General Comments (1) Ensure that written examination. questions are valid when compared to actual work assignments.

Response: 'The NRC has issued NUREG-1122, " Knowledge and Abilities Catalog for Nuclear Power Plant Operators: Pressurized Water Reactors." Still under development is the Examiners Handbook, NUREG-1121, which provides implementing guidance for NUREG-1122. These NUREGs are scheduled for pilot-test efforts in Region II in February and March 1986, although much of the guidance contained in NUREG-1122 has been used extensively on our examinations for the last six months. NUREG-1122 was used as a basis for deter-mining'if several of the questions which h~ad specific comments by VEPC0 were performance based. (2) Comply with the NRC policy restricting the number of multiple choice questions used on written examinations. Response: The present NRC policy is that each written examination-shall contain no more than 25% True-False and multiple choice questions. This policy was fully complied with on both the Surry and North Anna written examinations. On the Surry examinations, for example, the final version of the R0 examination contained l eight multiple choice and six True-False questions out of a total of 65 questions. On the SR0 examination, there were twelve multiple choice and two True-False questions from a total of 64. The percentages were 21.5 and 21.9 respectively on the R0 and SR0 examinations. Approximately 27% of the questions were also highly , -objective, i.e., matching, fill-in-the-blank, and single word

responses. ThesJ were not included in the category of multiple choice /True-False. The remaining 50% of the questions were more subjective, i.e., explain, describe, list, etc. The North Anna

( examination wcs very similar in construction. l l i l L

15 (3) Conduct simulator evaluations using an anticipated shift complement. The simulator examinations were conducted in full compliance with applicable Examiner Standards.. The candidates . selected = for examinations represented the percentage of licensed personnel at each site, i.e., R0s, SR0s and staff personnel. Two of the three crews at North Anna and three of the four crews at Surry consisted of two R0s and one SRO. The remaining crew at each site was of necessity, comprised of three SR0s. Each of the SR0s in the latter type of crew, functioned in both an SR0 and an R0 capacity. This is consistent with their license which permits them to "... direct the licensed activities of licensed operators at, and to manipulate all controls ..." of their applicable facilities. In addition, VEPC0 staff instructors functioning in the capacity of Shift Technical Advisors, were made available to and were utilized by each of the crews at each site. We can therefore find no basis for this general coment. (4) NRC Post-Grading Review The following changes were made as a result of the NRC post-

                                                                      ~

grading review in accordance with NUREG-1021, ES-108, Quality Assurance Program for Review of Graded Examinations. The affected examinations were regraded accordingly. (a) R0 Exam 1 Question 4.02. Choice (b) is incorrect. Either choice (a) or (d) is the correct response to this question. However, since knowledge 'of these Technical Specifications is considered beyond the requisite knowledge of Reactor Operators, this question. was deleted from the R0 exam. The SRG answer key was modified to accept either (a) or (d). 2 Question 4.07. The answer key has been changed to require "'.oss of CCW" to the reactor coolant pump for: full credit in accordance with the foldout page. (b) SR0 Exam 1_ Question 7.01.
