- 4. Job Content Flaws
- 5. Other Instructions
[Refer to Section D of ES-401 and Appendix B for additional information regarding each of the following concepts.]
- 1. Enter the level of knowledge (LOK) of each question as either (F)undamental or (H)igher cognitive level.
- 2. Enter the level of difficulty (LOD) of each question using a 1 to 5 (easy to difficult) rating scale (questions in the 2 to 4 range are acceptable).
- 3. Check the appropriate box if a psychometric flaw is identified:
- a. The stem lacks sufficient focus to elicit the correct answer (e.g., unclear intent, more information is needed, or too much needless information).
- b. The stem or distractors contain cues (i.e., clues, specific determiners, phrasing, length, etc).
- c. The answer choices are a collection of unrelated true/false statements.
- d. The distractors are not credible; single implausible distractors should be repaired, more than one is unacceptable.
- e. One or more distractors is (are) partially correct (e.g., if the applicant can make unstated assumptions that are not contradicted by stem).
- 4. Check the appropriate box if a job content error is identified:
- a. The question is not linked to the job requirements (i.e., the question has a valid K/A but, as written, is not operational in content).
- b. The question requires the recall of knowledge that is too specific for the closed reference test mode (i.e., it is not required to be known from memory).
- c. The question contains data with an unrealistic level of accuracy or inconsistent units (e.g., panel meter in percent with question in gallons).
- d. The question requires reverse logic or application compared to the job requirements.
- 5. Check questions that are sampled for conformance with the approved K/A and those that are designated SRO-only (K/A and license level mismatches are unacceptable).
- 6. Enter question source: (B)ank, (M)odified, or (N)ew. Check that (M)odified questions meet criteria of ES-401 Section D.2.f.
- 7. Based on the reviewer's judgment, is the question as written (U)nsatisfactory (requiring repair or replacement), in need of (E)ditorial enhancement, or (S)atisfactory?
Place the answer letter here Place the 55.41 or 55.43 item here

B 41.7 ON 2011 NRC EXAM. Discuss why student would think an ADV opening on a loss of power is plausible (distractors B and D).
There are malfunctions where the ADVs fail open off and the off-normal procedures direct the crew to take manual control of the ADVs and close them (such as a failure low of the ADV setpoint or controller output failure). The student could determine that the SUPS failure affects the ADV in this manner or the student may determine that an ADV fails open to maintain cooling to a Steam Generator to prevent opening a MSSV upon an accident. Let's please discuss this.Revised, Q now S 15 H

Changed the stem to state HPSI flow to Cold Leg 1A is zero gpm instead of HPSI flow is not meeting the HPSI flow curve.
This question is valid because the student must know that if any HPSI flow leg is not meeting the curves than the HPSI curve is considered not met. This is different than the LPSI flow curves which only requires one train to meet the curves.Discuss changes -

Is there a reason why we can't provide actual B31 bus voltage? Not sure that the conditions in C and D are plausible without requiring more than a TRM entry considering they refer to mitigation of a design basis accident and activation of protective relays. Are the reasons in B and D something that could ever actually happen? Replaced this question. Changed this question from an approved question from 2014 NRC SRO Exam that had the same K/A.
The previous question required the student to have the voltage from OP-903-066 memorized, which is not expected.REPLACED WITH BANK Q FROM 2014 EXAM.
Don't see where reference is for this question. Discuss; is there any way to reword distractors to eliminate "may" from A(2) and C(2) (as almost anything "may" happen)? Distracor C does not appear plausible requiring only a TRM entry when unable to combat a design basis accident?

43.5 Discuss possibility of deleting unnecessary information from the stem. Shouldn't the student be able to conclude that a trip is required and the reason for it without cueing that instrument air is lost in the stem? The bullet that instrument air is 70 psig and dropping is required for the question. The offnormal requires a rapid plant power reduction but the fact that the plant is about to reach the instrument air pressure that requires a manual reactor trip (65 psig) means that OP-902-000 is the right answer and not OP-901-212. Would like to leave the question "as is". Let's have discussion as need to better understand why loss of TGB-DC bus doesn't cue the loss of IA.

C 43.2 REFERENCE PROVIDED.
Underline "and" in distractor A.
Discuss why references are required. If so, this is essentially an admin JPM. Placing admin JPMs on the written exam should be avoided. Underlined and in distractor A. References are required because it is not expected that the student memorize what train the containment purge rad monitors are powered from and to a lesser extent the surveillance requirement. It is still a challenge to the licensed operators to apply the surveillance requirement to actual readings and the setpoints even with a reference provided.
Could remove the references for the surveillance requirements if you insist OK as is. Q is S a Rev 2

D 43.5 I'm completely missing how this question meets the K/A. In the event the MSR TCVs did not close from the control room, the contingency action in OP-902-000 is to direct the turbine building watch to isolate the MSRs by locally closing the air operated TCVs. This is a verbal report required to be given to the NAO in the field. This report does not provide the information on how to isolate the MSRs. This report can be made more concise and be more accurate by directing the NAO to isolate the MSRs by isolating the air and opening the petcocks to all 5 and 10 TCVs.
This direction is given in OI-038-000 as indicated in the references provided. I think this question meets the K/A. Discuss operating instruction expectations as it pertains to providing verbal reports.Revised, Q now S 95 H

C 43.2 Why is BAM spelled out in A and B, but not C and D? Why is it desirable to have both train BAM pumps powered from train A and both gravity feed valves powered by train B power? Spelled out BAM in C and D. It is still two different ways to emergency borate powered by different trains.
Little strange but makes for good test questions. Discuss to verify understanding. Discussed Q now S a Rev 2
