SUMMARY: Six licensed'. Senior Operators (SRO) and six licensed Reactor
Operators-(RO) were administered written and operating examinations. Two
operators failed the operating examination and nine operators failed the=
written examination. The requalification program was evaluated as unsatisfac-
- tory per the criteria provided in the Operator Licensing Examiner Standards,
NUREG-1021, Chapter ES-601, Paragraph F.1.
Operator weaknesses were extensive and individualized. No apparent root cause
for the high number of failures could be identified.

Summary of NRC Comments
!
The examiner reviewed the number and types of examinations which had
been administered as part of the requalification program
evaluation. Two operators had been evaluated as unsatisfactory
during the operating examination. The operators' names and identi-
.fied major. areas of weakness were provided to the Plant Manager so
that appropriate actions could be taken in accordance with the
requalification program. The examiner stated that the details of the
operating examinations and the results of the written examinations
would be provided to the training department, as soon as the evalu- '
ations were completed, so that appropriate actions could be taken in .
accordance with the facility requalification program. '
The examiner stated that there was no consistency during the
operating examinations in the use of procedures during normal and
abnormal evolutions. Some shifts reviewed procedures prior to
performing evolutions while other shifts occasionally reviewed
procedures after completion of evolutions.
The examiner explained that problems with the simulator had required
running an additional scenario in order to adequately evaluate the
operators' ability to use the Emergency Operating Procedures. The
examiner thanked the simulator staff for their support during the
operating examination.
Summary of Weaknesses Identified on Written Examinations:
The following weaknesses were identified during grading the
written examinations. This information is provided for use in
developing future training programs.

The areas ,rrf indicated knowledge deficiencies on the written examinations
comprised only 9% of each examination. On 91% of the written examinations a
majority of the operators demonstrated adequate knowledge in the area being
examined. There was a wide range of grades on each section of the written
examinations and resulted in a spread of 15% to 25% between the lowest and
highest grade on each section. However the range of final grades was much
narrower with a spread of 11% and 16% on the SRO and R0 exar.,f nations
respectively. The average grades on the written SR0 and RO were 77% and 79%
respectively.
Summary of Weaknesses on Operating Examinations:
The following weaknesses were identified as part of evaluating operator
performance during the operating examinations. Details are provided on
individual operating examination report forms. This information is provided
for use in developing future training programs.

-

-

orders over the phone.
Changes to the Writcon Eemination:
Not all facility comments resulted in changes to the written examination
answer key, however, all comments were considered during grading of the
examinations.
Multiple choice' questions will continue to be used in future examinations.
Additional efforts will be taken to ensure that questions which have been
successfully' used at other facilities are consistent with the Beaver Valley
facility procedures.
The knowledges required of an operator are defined by NUREG-1122, Knowledges
and Abilities Catalog for Nuclear Power Plant Operators: Pressurized Water
Reactors. Utility enabling objectives are also used to define areas of
required knowledges. An enabling objective must define the conditions of f
performance and be of sufficient detail so that trainees can identify the
required depth of knowledge without reference to a terminal objective or an
administrative procedure. The required understanding and knowledge of normal
and abnormal procedures is defined by NUREG-1122 and the facility enabling i
objectives.

Simulator Performance:
The ability to evaluate the performance of the operators during the operating
examination was hampered by simulator problems. One scenario, which resulted
in two phase flow conditions, was invalidated since the simulator response did
not correspond to the laws of nature. The simulator response was a result of j
the failure to enter constants into the model at the proper time. A second !
problem occurred with the turbine plant control system. It was unclear whether l
an operator's inability to properly control turbine load was a simulator l
problem or an indication of an operator weakness.
NRC Follow up:
During a telephone conference conducted on June 2,1987, the licensee was
informed of the number of written examination failures. The licensee was
requested to take appropriate actions in accordance with its requalification
program and attempt to identify root causes for the large number of failures.
The completed operating examinations, the corrected written examinations, and ,
the final written examinations' question and answer keys were mailed to the !
training department on June 3, 1987.
Conclusion:
The requalification program is evaluated as unsatisfactory. No root cause
could be identified for the large number of failures. Reviews of the
unsatisfactory evaluation were conducted considering the licensee's review
comments, the questions dealing with information presented in the last
requalification cycle, and the questions answered incorrectly by the majority
of individuals. None of the reviews changed the pass fail decision for
individual operators nor identified generic training program weaknesses.

It appears that the requalification program has been unable to maintain a
minimum level of operator knowledge and ability. The average knowledge level
of the operators appears to be uniform. However, the knowledge of specific j
items varies greatly between operators.
The licensee is requested to identify the root cause of the high failure rate
and develop corrective action as required by NUREG-1021, Chapter 601, Parsgraph
F.2.6(1). The short term and long term' corrective actions should be submitted
to the NRC within 60 days.

ANSWER 1.05 (2.90)
rhol = (Keffl - 1)/ Keffi -0.05
Keff1 = 1/((1 - (-0.05)) = 0.9524 [0.5]
120(1 - 0.9524) = 196(1 - Keff2)
Keff2 = 0.9709 [0.5]
rho 2 = (0.9709 -1)/0.9709 = -0.03 [0.25]
delta rho = rho 2 - rhol = -0.03 - (-0.05) = 0.02 = 2000 pcm [0.4]
1000 pcm is due to xenon, so the remaining 1000 pcm is due to boron [0.5]
change in boron concentration for 1000 pcm is:
1000 pcm / 10 pcm/ ppm = 100 ppm [0.25].
new boron concentration = 1200 - 100 = 1100 ppm [0.5)

The plant is operating at 75% power and the latest leak rate data shows:
12.2 GPM - Corrected RCS leakage rate
1.5 GPM - Leakage into the Pressurizer Relief Tank
1.5 GPM - Leakage into the Primary Drains Transfer Tank
.
3.2 GPM - Leakage through SI-23, RCS Loop 1A, cold leg isolation
(Previous leakage rate was 1.6 GPM)
0.4 GPM - Primary to secondary leakage in SG #1
0.2 GPM - Primary to secondary leakage in SG #2
0.2 GPM - Primary to secondary leakage in SG #3
4.0 GPM - Leakage rast RCP seals
What RCS leakage limits, if any, have been exceeded? Refer to attached
Technical Specifications.

Operator Written Examination Report
Dear Mr. Keller:
Please find enclosed comments generated by the Training Section
concerning the R.0, and S.R.0. examinations administered May 19 and
20. 1987 at our facility.
As you review the specific exam comments, you will see that certain
generic concerns are evident on our part. We would like to resolve these
issues as they challenge our candidates unfairly. These concerns cause
excessive amounts of time to be used and in some cases adds unneeded
confusion in an already stressful situation. In addition, our candidates
are being tested extensively in areas that are not required knowledge from
memory. The specific areas of concern are:
. Multiple choice questions that do not have any correct answers to
choose from.
. Questions were asked of candidates concerning steps frcm normal and
abnormal procedures that are required to be present and followed.
These steps are not immediate manual actions and are not required to
be reproduced from memory. It should be remembered that operators
have a very large number of approved procedures which they are
required to use when operating a licensed facility. We train our
personnel on the content, interpretation, and proper use of these
procedures and to have these procedures present when they are
performing their operational duties. It is not expected that they
would perform these large numbers of operations without the use of
the latest revisions of their controlled operating copies.
. Questions appeared on the four exams that were the same but had
different answers depending on which exam was being reviewed.
