2 / 1 (Q36) 022 K3.04 Unable to make distractors plausible for the effects of a loss of containment cooling on Containment (temp and press will rise).

Reselected 022 A3.01 at CE direction.

2 / 1 (Q44) 073 A4.03 Operations department does not perform source checks on RMs at PVNGS therefore this KA has no operational relevance.

Reselected 073 A4.02.

2 / 1 (Q51) 059 K3.05 Myself and the Operations Representative could not find any tie between a failure of the Main Feedwater System and Extraction Steam and therefore could not write a question for the selected KA. Reselected 059 K3.02.

2 / 2 (Q55) 001 K2.03 KA replaced at Chief Examiners request based on the recent Ovation Rod Control modification (installed only on Unit 3 as of the exam date). New KA is 001 G 2.2.3 2 / 2 (Q56) 028 K3.01 The Hydrogen Recombiner System was retired in place in fall of 2022 and therefore has no operational relevance. Given the modification in Unit 3 (with Units 1 and 2 to follow in the next 18-24 months), reselected 014 K3.02 to add a newly modified system to the outline in lieu of the retired system.

Rev. 12 2 / 2 (Q63) 075 A2.04 Unable to create a plausible distractor for how to adjust turbine load during excessive heat and/or humidity conditions.

S1: The applicant will be directed to restore CEA overlap following a Reactor Power Cutback per 40AO-9ZZ09, Reactor Power Cutback (Loss of Feedpump). The applicant will determine how far Group 4 CEAs must be withdrawn to re-establish proper CEA group overlap, then use the new Ovation Rod Control System to realign the CEA groups. This is a new JPM covering Safety Function 1.

DUE TO THE OVATION MODIFICATION ONLY BEING INSTALLED IN SIMULATOR A, THIS JPM WILL ONLY BE RUN IN SIMULATOR A.

S2: The applicant will be directed to respond to an inadvertent Train A CSAS per 40AO-9ZZ17, Inadvertent PPS-ESFAS Actuations. The applicant will stop the A CS Pump and attempt to override and isolate the A CS Header. The A CS Header Isolation Valve will be seized in the open position, requiring the operator to isolate the header using an alternate isolation flowpath. This is a bank alternate path JPM covering Safety Function 2 S3: The applicant will be directed to place the Pressurizer in Boron Equalization per 40OP-9CH01, CVCS Normal Operations. When the first Pressurizer Backup Heater is energized, the output on Pressure Master Control, RCN-PIC-100, will fail high, resulting in the Main Spray Valves both opening and Pressurizer Pressure lowering. The applicant will address the ARP and take actions to diagnose the failure and regain control of Pressurizer pressure prior to an automatic Reactor trip. This is a bank alternate path JPM covering Safety Function 3.

S4: The applicant will be directed verify a RAS actuation during a large break LOCA per 40EP-9EO03, Loss of Coolant Accident. One of the Train B SDC suction valves from containment will be seized closed requiring the applicant to trip the B HPSI and B CS Pumps. The applicant will then manually close the RWT outlet valves (time critical action to close within 5 minutes of the RAS actuation), then ensure all of the HPSI, LPSI, and CS Pump recirc valves are closed (one will fail to auto close and must be manually closed by the applicant). This is a bank alternate path time-critical JPM covering Safety Function 4P.

S5: The applicant will be directed to swap from B Stator Cooling Water Pump to A Stator Cooling Water Pump per 40OP-9CE01, Stator Cooling System. During the pump swap, the standby pump is started using the auto start test feature prior to securing the running pump. The A Pump (standby, initially) will have a sheared shaft when started. This will not show indications until the B Pump is stopped. When the B Pump is stopped, 2-3 Stator Cooling Water trouble alarms will annunciate and temperatures will begin to rise on Stator Cooling Water cooled equipment. The B Pump will have a fail to auto start malfunction installed so the applicant will have to recognize that the A Pump is not providing sufficient cooling, and manually re-start the B Pump within 70 seconds of stopping the B Pump or the Main Turbine will trip. This is a new alternate path JPM covering Safety Function 4S.

S6: The applicant will be directed to vent the Reactor Vessel Head to the RDT to collapse voids during a LOCA per Appendix 15, RCS Void Control. During the vent alignment, one of the head vent valves will fail to open requiring the applicant to align the vent from RCS to Containment atmosphere instead. This is a bank alternate path JPM covering Safety Function 5.

S7: The applicant will be directed to secure from an EDG load run. During the load reduction, Train A 125 VDC Control Power Bus, PKA-M41, will de-energize resulting in an automatic trip of the A EDG.

The loss of PKA will also result in the loss of control power to the A EDG Output Breaker, resulting in the A EDG being motorized by the grid. The applicant will address either the ARP or AOP (or use guidance in the precautions section of the ST) and direct an AO to locally open the A EDG Output Breaker to prevent damage to the EDG. This is a bank, time critical, alternate path JPM covering Safety Function 6.

S8: The applicant will be directed to place the Boron Dilution Alarm System in service per Appendix 8, Boron Dilution Alarm Check. The applicant will select the Startup Channel NIs in the Control Room, then manipulate switches at the Excore cabinet outside the Control Room and evaluate voltage differences between the two BDAS channels to ensure proper indication. This is a bank JPM covering Safety Function 7.

P1: The applicant will be directed to perform (simulate) the field actions of Appendix 208, LM - Charging Pump Hot Leg Injection Train A HPSI, to establish a valve lineup for hot leg injection. This is a new RCA JPM covering Safety Function 2.

P2: The applicant will be directed to establish a control source of steaming from the SGs and establish Auxiliary Feed flow to the SGs from the Remote Shutdown Panel following control room evacuation due to a fire. This JPM will be performed in the RSD Panel simulator following the applicants identifying the location of the RSD during in-plant JPMs. This is a new JPM covering Safety Function 4S.

P3: The applicant will be directed to establish conditions to re-energize communications equipment following a blackout per Appendix 109-A, Energize NHN-M03 Loads From the SBOG. The applicant will locate panels in the Turbine and Control Buildings and simulate aligning breakers as directed by Appendix 109-A. This is a new JPM covering Safety Function 6.

Form 3.2-2 Instructions for Control Room-Plant Systems Outline

1.

Determine the number of control room system and in-plant systems job performance measures (JPMs) to develop using the following table:

License Level Control Room In-Plant Total Reactor Operator (RO) 8 3

11 Senior Reactor Operator-Instant (SRO-I) 7 3

10 Senior Reactor Operator-Upgrade (SRO-U) 2 or 3 3 or 2 5

2.

Select safety functions and system for each JPM as follows:

Refer to Section 1.9 pf the applicable knowledge and abilities (K/A) catalog for the plant systems organized by safety function. For pressurized-water reactor operating tests, the primary and secondary systems listed under Safety Function 4, Heat Removal from Reactor Core, in Section 1.9 of NUREG-1122 or NUREG-2103 may be treated as separate safety functions (i.e., two systems, one primary and one secondary, may be selected from Safety Function 4).

From the safety function groupings identified in the K/A catalog, select the appropriate number of plant systems by safety functions to be evaluated based on the applicants license level (see the table in step 1).

The emergency and abnormal plant evolutions listed in Section 1.10 of the applicable K/A catalog may also be used to evaluate the applicable safety function (as specified for each emergency and abnormal plant evolution in the first tier of the written examination outlines in ES-4.1, Preparing Written Examination Outlines).

For RO/SRO-I applicants: Each of the control room systems JPMs and, separately, each of the in-plant systems JPMs must evaluate a different safety function, and the same system or evolution cannot be used to evaluate more than one safety function in each location. One of the control room systems JPMs must be an engineered safety feature.

For the SRO-U applicants: Evaluate SRO-U applicants on five different safety functions. One of the control room systems JPMs must be an engineered safety feature, and the same system or evolution cannot be used to evaluate more than one safety function.

3.

Select a task for each JPM that supports, either directly or indirectly and in a meaningful way, the successful fulfillment of the associated safety function. Select the task from the applicable K/A catalog or the facility licensees site-specific task list.

If this task has an associated K/A, the K/A should have an importance rating of at least 2.5 in the RO column. K/As that have importance ratings of less than 2.5 may be used if justified based on plant priorities; inform the NRC chief examiner if selecting K/As with an importance rating less than 2.5.

The selected tasks must be different from the events and evolutions conducted during the simulator operating test and tasks tested on the written examination. A task that is similar to a simulator scenario event may be acceptable if the actions required to complete the task are significantly different from those required in response to the scenario event.

Apply the following specific task selection criteria:

At least one of the tasks shall be related to a shutdown or low-power condition.

Four to six of the tasks for RO and SRO-I applicants shall require execution of alternative paths within the facility licensees operating procedures. Two to three of the tasks for SRO-U applicants shall require execution of alternative paths within the facility licensees operating procedures.

At least one alternate path JPM must be new or modified from the bank.

At least one of the tasks conducted in the plant shall require the applicant to enter the radiologically controlled area.

This provides an excellent opportunity for the applicant to discuss or demonstrate radiation control administrative subjects.

If it is not possible to develop or locate a suitable task for a selected system, return to step 2 and select a different system

4.

For each JPM, specify the codes for type, source, and location:

Form 3-3.1 Scenario Event Summary NRC Exam Scenario #1 2023 NRC Scenario #1 2023 NRC Exam Scenario #1 Overview Event 1 Upon taking the shift, the OATC will perform a 20 gallon shiftly dilution per 40OP-9CH01, CVCS Normal Operations.

Event 2 Following the dilution, Containment WR Pressure transmitter, HCC-PI-352C, will fail high. The BOP will address the ARP, the CRS will address Technical Specifications, and direct the BOP to bypass the affected bistable at the PPS cabinet.

Event 3 After the affected bistable has been bypassed, Charging Line to RC Loop 2A DP Controller, CHN-PDIC-240, output will fail high in Auto. The OATC will address the ARP and take manual control of CHN-PDIC-240 and adjust the output to restore DP to the normal band and restore Seal Injection to the normal band.

Event 4 When PDIC-240 has been restored to normal output, Main Condenser vacuum will begin to degrade. The CRS will enter 40AO-9ZZ07, Loss of Condenser Vacuum, and direct the crew to search for the source of the loss of vacuum and take load off the Main Turbine to stabilize vacuum. When the crew starts to reduce turbine load, an AO will report that they discovered an empty loop seal and have commenced filling it.

Event 5 After the crew has lowered Main Turbine load and directed filling the loop seal, a loss of Train B 4kV Bus PBB-S04 will occur. The CRS will enter 40AO-9ZZ12, Degraded Electrical Power. The OATC will either start the E Charging Pump to prevent a loss of letdown (may occur using Prompt and Prudent action), or letdown will isolate on high letdown temperature. If letdown isolates, the CRS will enter 40AO-9ZZ05, Loss of Charging or Letdown, and establish conditions for extended operation with letdown isolated. Additionally, on the loss of PBB-S04, the CEDM and Containment Normal ACUs will lose power. The standby Containment Normal ACUs will fail to auto start, requiring a manual start from the BOP or OATC. The CRS will also address Technical Specifications as a result of the loss of the class bus.

Event 6 After Technical Specifications have been addressed, the A MFP will trip. The CRS will enter 40AO-9ZZ09, Reactor Power Cutback (Loss of Feedpump), and direct the crew to take RPCB out of service, and remove CEDMCS from automatic.

Event 7 After the crew has stabilized the plant, a loss of offsite power will occur, resulting in a Reactor trip. The A EDG will trip 60 seconds after starting due to a loss of lube oil, putting the unit in a blackout condition. Following SPTAs, the CRS will transition to 40EP-9EO08, Blackout, and direct the crew to start and align an SBOG to PBA-S03 to restore class 4kV power to the unit.

Event 8 AFAS will fail to auto actuate, requiring the BOP to manually start turbine-driven AFW Pump, AFA-P01 to restore feed flow to the unit.

When power has been restored to a class 4kV bus and feed has been restored to at least one SG, the scenario may be terminated.

Form 3-3.1 Critical Task Summary NRC Exam Scenario #1 2023 NRC Scenario #1 Critical Task # 1: Re-establish steaming and/or feeding to at least one SG to prevent lifting a Primary Safety Valve Safety Significance: Failure to reestablish a steaming/feed source to at least one SG will result in the continued heatup of the RCS, potentially to the point at which an otherwise preventable lifting of a primary safety valve, increasing the risk of a stuck-open valve and unisolable steam space leak inside Containment.

Cueing: Procedural direction in SPTAs as well as the Blackout EOP to feed at least one SG and use the SGs to maintain RCS temperature in the post-trip bands, which will directly aid in maintaining RCS pressure in the post-trip bands, preventing the lifting of a primary safety valve.

Measurable Performance Indicator: The status of RCS pressure is able to be read on several control board indications as well as any ERFDADS terminal. The status of the pressurizer safety valves is available on B04. The status of feedwater to the SGs is also available on multiple control board indicators as well on every ERFDADS terminal.

To restore feed:

To start AFA-P01:

o Open EITHER (or both) SGA-HS-134A or SGA-HS-138A to admit steam to AFA-P01 and start the pump To feed SG 1:

o Open AFA-HS-37A and throttle open AFC-HS-33A To feed SG 2:

o Open AFC-HS-36A and throttle open AFA-HS-32A To establish steaming:

For SG 1 Line 1 ADV: Place SGA-HS-184A and SGC-HS-184B to OPEN PERM, then raise output on SGA-HIC-184A until SG 1 Line 1 ADV opens For SG 1 Line 2 ADV: Place SGB-HS-178A and SGD-HS-178B to OPEN PERM, then raise output on SGB-HIC-178A until SG 1 Line 2 ADV opens For SG 2 Line 1 ADV: Place SGB-HS-185A and SGD-HS-185B to OPEN PERM, then raise output on SGB-HIC-185A until SG 2 Line 1 ADV opens For SG 2 Line 2 ADV: Place SGA-HS-179A and SGC-HS-179B to OPEN PERM, then raise output on SGA-HIC-179A until SG 2 Line 2 ADV opens Performance Feedback: The crew can confirm that feed has been restored using the control board indications and/or ERFDADS terminals. The status of the pressurizer safety valves may be monitored using the safety valve indicators on B04.

Form 3-3.1 Critical Task Summary NRC Exam Scenario #1 2023 NRC Scenario #1 Critical Task # 2: Align an SBOG to a Class 4kV Bus within one hour of the blackout condition Safety Significance: Restoration of power to at least one class 4kV bus is required to ensure the class batteries do not drop below minimum voltage values, which would result in an escalation from a site area emergency to a general emergency condition. Failure to align an SBOG within 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> also requires entry into 79IS-9ZZ07, PVNGS Extended Loss of All Site AC Guideline MODES 1-4, which represents an escalation in response, increased personnel dispatch, and alignment of FLEX equipment which is otherwise avoidable with minimally competent crew response.

Cueing: Procedural guidance in the Functional Recovery procedure will direct the crew to restore power (the SBOG is the preferred available method to do so in this case).

Measurable Performance Indicator: The CT is met when the crew reenergized at least one class 4kV bus, which will be indicated by voltage indication on the bus (which can also be read on any ERFDADS terminal)

Performance Feedback: The crew will have positive confirmation that power has been restored based on breaker positions and bus voltage indications.

  • This Critical Task and the 60 minute time requirement meets Operations Management expectations for an Operating Crew NOTE: (Per NUREG-1021) If an operator or the Crew significantly deviates from or fails to follow procedures that affect the maintenance of basic safety functions, those actions may form the basis of a Critical Task identified in the post-scenario review

Form 3-3.1 Scenario Event Summary NRC Exam Scenario #2 2023 NRC Scenario #2 2023 NRC Exam Scenario #2 Overview Event 1 Upon taking the shift, the OATC will pump the Reactor Drain Tank from 60% to 57% per 40OP-9CH06, CVCS Miscellaneous Operations.

Event 2 After the RDT has been pumped, RCS Tcold transmitter, RCN-TT-121Y, will fail high.

The CRS will enter 40AO-9ZZ16, RRS Malfunctions, and direct the crew to take manual control of PLCS, select the unaffected Loop Tave instrument at the RRS cabinet, and restore automatic control of Pressurizer level..

Event 3 When PLCS has been returned to automatic control, HCB-UV-47, Containment Radiation Monitor Containment Isolation Inlet Valve, will spuriously close. The CRS will address Technical Specifications for the failure of the CIV and isolation of the Rad Monitor.

Event 4 After addressing Technical Specifications, a 10 gpm SGTL will occur in SG #1. The CRS will enter 40AO-9ZZ02, Excessive RCS Leakrate, and direct the crew to determine the leakrate and take actions to minimize release to the environment. The CRS will also address Technical Specifications due to the leakage.

Event 5 After the crew has determined the leakrate and the CRS has addressed Technical Specifications, a loss of Non-Class Instrument Bus, NNN-D11, will occur. The CRS will enter 40AO-9ZZ14, Loss of Non-Class Instrument or Control Power, and direct the crew to ensure PLCS and PPCS are selected to unaffected input transmitters and take CEDMCS out of Auto Sequential.

NOTE: Letdown will isolate as a result of this event, however performance of 40AO-9ZZ05, Loss of Charging or Letdown is not needed to be observed since letdown will be re-isolated shortly after the Reactor trip in the next event.

Event 6 When the plant has been stabilized following the loss of NNN-D11, RCP 2A will trip but the Reactor will fail to auto trip, resulting in an ATWS. The crew will recognize the ATWS and take action to manually trip the Reactor at B05.

Event 7 On the Reactor trip, one MSSV on SG #1 will lift and fail to reseat, resulting in a SGTL and unisolable ESD to the environment. Based on this, the CRS will transition to 40EP-9EO09, Functional Recovery, following SPTAs, and direct the crew to commence feeding SG #1 at a rate of 1360-1600 gpm in an effort to cover the top of the U-tubes to minimize the release to the environment.

Event 8 When the ESD causes SG pressures to lower to the MSIS setpoint, MSIS will fail to auto actuate. The crew will manually actuate MSIS to ensure that SG #2 inventory is not removed via the failed MSSV on SG #1.

When MSIS has been actuated and SG #1 is being fed at 1360-1600 gpm, the scenario may be terminated.

Form 3-3.1 Critical Task Summary NRC Exam Scenario #2 2023 NRC Scenario #2 Critical Task # 1: Following a failure of the Reactor to automatically trip, manually trip the Reactor prior to performing step 2 of SPTAs, Vital Auxiliaries verification Safety Significance: Failure to ensure the reactor is tripped following an automatic reactor trip signal with valid trip signals locked in will result in lowering the margin to safety limits.

Cueing: Failure of the reactor to trip with RPS reactor trip setpoints being exceeded as indicated by red RPS alarms on Board 5 in the Control Room.

Measurable Performance Indicator: The Reactor should be tripped by manually depressing the RTCB Pushbuttons on B05.

Performance Feedback: All CEAs inserted as indicated by rod bottom lights on Board 4 in the Control Room, lowering reactor power and a negative startup rate.

Form 3-3.1 Critical Task Summary NRC Exam Scenario #2 2023 NRC Scenario #2 Critical Task # 2: When the Main Steam Isolation setpoints are exceeded, ensure Main Steam Isolation has actuated prior to automatic AFAS-2 actuation Safety Significance: Prior to the MSIS, both SGs are affected by the failed open MSSV on SG #1.

As such, an AFAS-2 occurring prior to the initiation of MSIS will result in an avoidable loss of CST inventory (AFAS-1 is not preventable due to the lifted MSSV on SG #1).

Cueing: The crew should recognize the failure of MSIS to actuate when SG pressure lowers to less than 960 psia.

Measurable Performance Indicator: The crew will have to manually actuate MSIS by taking the four handswitches for each ESFAS channel actuation (on B05) to the actuate position. This can be confirmed by the red MSIS lights on the vertical section of B05 as well as the actuation logic lights for each actuation extinguishing on the horizontal section of B05. The AFAS-2 actuation will occur at 25.8% wide range in SG #2 and will be indicated by the red AFAS-2 alarm on the vertical section of B05.

Performance Feedback: The crew will have indication of successful actuations by observing the red MSIS lights on the vertical section of B05, the actuation logic lights for the MSIS actuation extinguishing on the horizontal section of B05, as well as by observing the actuated equipment for the MSIS (MSIVs, FWIVs, etc.)

Form 3-3.1 Critical Task Summary NRC Exam Scenario #2 2023 NRC Scenario #2 Critical Task # 3: Establish a feedrate of 1360-1600 gpm to SG #1 prior to exiting HR-2, RCS and Core Heat Removal, SG with SI Safety Significance: An event in which a SG has a tube leak or rupture concurrently with an unisolable steam leak to atmosphere will result in a radioactive release to the atmosphere. A feedrate of 1360-1600 gpm to the affected SG is performed in order to expeditiously establish sufficient inventory in the affected SG to ensure the U-tubes are covered (~ 45% NR), thus minimizing the release to the environment.

Cueing: The crew will have indication of SG tube leakage on SG #1 prior to the reactor trip (leak occurs in Event 4) from ERFDADS indicating a rising leakrate and SG #1 level rising. Once entering an EOP, the crew can also get confirmation of the SGTL from chemistry. The ESD outside of containment will be indicated steam flow on SG #1 rising and pressure on SG #1 lowering.

Measurable Performance Indicator: The crew will align 2 AFW pumps to supply feedwater to SG #1 for a total of 1360-1600 gpm, per step 15 of 40EP-9EO09, Functional Recovery, HR-2, SG with SI.

Performance Feedback: Total feed flow to the affected SG will be available using any ERFDADS computer terminal.

NOTE: (Per NUREG-1021) If an operator or the Crew significantly deviates from or fails to follow procedures that affect the maintenance of basic safety functions, those actions may form the basis of a Critical Task identified in the post-scenario review

Event 2 When the order of running Charging Pumps has been changed, SG #2 level transmitter, SGN-LT-1121, will fail low. The BOP will address the ARP and placed the failed transmitter in maintenance.

Event 3 When LT-1121 has been placed in maintenance, Pressurizer level transmitter, RCA-LT-110Y, will fail to 50%. The OATC will address the ARP and place the unaffected level transmitter in service for PLCS, restore automatic control of Pressurizer level, and ensure Pressurizer heaters are returned to normal configuration. The CRS will also address Technical Specifications for the failed transmitter.

Event 4 When Technical Specifications have been addressed, an inadvertent Train B AFAS-2 will occur. The CRS will enter 40AO-9ZZ17, Inadvertent PPS-ESFAS Actuations, and direct the BOP to override and stop feeding SG #2. The CRS will also address Technical Specifications following the inadvertent actuation.

Event 5 When Technical Specifications have been addressed, the running Nuclear Cooling Water Pump will trip. The CRS will enter 40AO-9ZZ03, Loss of Cooling Water, and direct the BOP to cross-tie Train A EW with NC to restore cooling to the RCPs.

Letdown will be also be lost as a result of the loss of NC so the CRS will also enter 40AO-9ZZ05, Loss of Charging or Letdown, and direct the OATC to establish conditions for extended operation with letdown isolated. The CRS will also have to address Technical Specifications following the cross-tie of NC with EW.

Event 6 When NC and EW have been cross-tied and Technical Specifications have been addressed, the running Turbine Cooling Water Pump will experience a sheared shaft and the standby pump will fail to auto start. The BOP will address the ARP and start the standby TC Pump.

Event 7 When the standby TC Pump is started, a feed line break will occur on SG #2 inside Containment. The crew will trip the Reactor and perform SPTAs. When SIAS actuates, the RCPs will lose cooling flow and the crew will have to recognize this and trip all 4 RCPs. When SG #2 reaches dryout, the BOP will take action to stabilize RCS temperature to prevent lifting a Pressurizer Safety Valve.

Event 8 When Containment pressure exceeds 8.06 psig, CSAS will occur. However the B CS Pump is OOS and the A CSAS will fail to auto start on the CSAS, requiring the crew to manually start the A CS Pump to establish CS flow.

When the crew has stabilized RCS temperature and established adequate CS flow, the scenario may be terminated.

Form 3-3.1 Critical Task Summary NRC Exam Scenario #3 2023 NRC Scenario #3 Critical Task # 1: Secure all 4 RCPs within 30 minutes of the unrecoverable loss of cooling water Safety Significance: Engineering analysis shows that RCPs can only run for 30 minutes with no cooling water supplied to the seals until seal breakthrough will occur. This would create a new, unisolable LOCA inside Containment. The SIAS will close the NC-EW cross-tie valves, resulting in a loss of cooling water the RCPs.

Cueing: Procedural direction to stop RCPs with no cooling water available is contained in SPTAs.

Measurable Performance Indicator: The CT is met when all 4 RCPs have been stopped as indicated by each pumps red light off and green light on, as well as indication of 0 amps on each pump motor.

Performance Feedback: The crew will have confirmation that the RCPs have stopped by each RCPs red light off and green light on, as well as indication of 0 amps on each pump motor.

Form 3-3.1 Critical Task Summary NRC Exam Scenario #3 2023 NRC Scenario #3 Critical Task # 2: When the Containment Spray Actuation setpoint is exceeded, ensure adequate Containment Spray flow to meet the CTPC safety function prior to exiting Standard Post Trip Actions Safety Significance: Potential degradation of any barrier to fission product release. Failure to maintain containment temperature and pressure control may challenge containment integrity.

Restoring this safety function prior to the completion of SPTAs will prevent transition to the Functional Recovery procedure, which would slow the mitigation of the event in progress.

Cueing: In addition to the procedural cue, the crew may use indications of Containment pressure, Containment temperature, Containment fan coolers, Containment Spray pumps, and Containment Spray flow to provide cue to perform elements of this task.

Measurable Performance Indicator: The task is identified by at least one member of the crew manipulating the controls (starting the A CS Pump) to establish Containment Spray flow. If Containment pressure is > 8.5 psig, the crew should ensure a CSAS is actuated and at least one CS header is delivering > 4350 gpm on at least one header.

Performance Feedback: The task provides feedback by observing > 4350 gpm on B02 and ERFDADS flow indicators and Containment pressure lowering.

NOTE: (Per NUREG-1021) If an operator or the Crew significantly deviates from or fails to follow procedures that affect the maintenance of basic safety functions, those actions may form the basis of a Critical Task identified in the post-scenario review
