SUBJECT:

Arkansas Nuclear One - Unit 2 Docket No. 50-368 License No. NPF-6 Comments on NRC SR0 Exam of July 15, 1986

Dear Mr. McCrory:

I have attached my comments on the SR0 examination for your review and consideration.

I thought that the test was well written and the key was for the most part accurate.

l The only general comment I have is that although I felt the questions included in section 5 were very good, the section took too long to complete!

I would like to express my appreciation for your efforts in providing us I

with a good wrftten examination.

If you have any comments, please contact me.

Very truly yours, i

Walt Perks l

TM/LP should be changed to DNBR or Low Pressurizer Pressure.

ERC860484 07/16/86 Question 6.08 Part b.

High Steam Generator water level results in a Reactor Trip, not a turbine trip.

If it is assumed that the feedwater level control system level switch is in its normal position (both),

failure of a single channel will not affect system operation due to the high select feature of the feedwater control system. Failure of one channel would result in a level deviation alarm on panel 2C-12 at a setpoint of 10% level deviation.

Level transmitter for ANO-2 are 2 LT 1033, 2LT 1034, 2LT 1133 and 2LT 1134.

Reference:

STM-2-69 Question 8.01 Answer should be at > 40 gpm of 1731 ppa boric acid solution.

Question 8.11 ANO OP2502.01 previously listed Operations Superintendent and Nuclear Engineering. Latest Rev. lists Operations Superintendent and Reactor Engineering.

ANO has never had a group called Nuclear Operations.

Should accept Nuclear Engineering or Reactor Engineering.
