Task: Establish Excess Letdown to the VCT in accordance with OP-107, Section 8.2 Verifiable actions: The candidate will perform a valve lineup to establish a flow path from Excess Letdown to the Reactor Coolant Drain Tank. This flow path will be used to flush the lines to establish the same boron concentration as the RCS. They will then establish a valve lineup to the VCT and adjust a hand control valve to establish Excess Letdown flow at a rate that does not cause Excess Letdown temperature to exceed 174°F or pressure to exceed 150 psig. The MCB has indications and alarms for the parameters. Temperature and pressure limits prevent damage to the Excess Letdown Heat Exchanger and prevent lifting a relief in the Excess Letdown line. | |||

Verifiable actions: The candidate will be required to perform a change valve positions to establish a flow path from the existing ECCS injection flow path lineup to the Hot Legs. | |||
They will also have to secure the lineup due to a valve that fails to open. Additionally, this will require them to start a CSIP and open valves that had been pressure locked. | |||
Alternate Path - YES. During the valve alignment 1SI-107, Alternate High Head SI to Hot Leg will fail to open. This failure will require the operator to use RNO actions to reopen the previously shut alternate high head SI to Cold Leg valve 1SI-52 then restart the Train A CSIP and use Attachment 1 to open 1SI-107 from a pressure locked condition. | |||

Turnover: The plant was operating at 100% power steady state Middle of Life (MOL) when a SG tube leak developed in the A SG. The tube leak has deteriorated into a tube rupture which prompted the crew to perform a manual Reactor trip / Safety Injection. The crew is presently implementing EOP-E-3, Steam Generator Tube Rupture. The CRS has directed the BOP to continue with the performance of E-3 commencing with step 28. | |||
Task: The candidate must determine the required core exit target temperature based on the lowest ruptured SG pressure. ERFIS will NOT be available a lower conservative RCS temperature must be selected. By using RVLIS panel or active loop WR Thot. the candidate should then commence the Max Rate cooldown to the required core exit temperature utilizing the Steam Dumps. | |||
Verifiable actions: The candidate will manipulate a switch to change Steam Dump operation from Tavg mode to Steam Pressure mode and two other switches to bypass the Steam Dump Interlock to allow continued Steam Dump operation when the RCS low temperature interlock signal closes the Steam Dumps. The Steam Dumps will fail closed in the JPM which will then require the candidate to operate the SG PORV M/A station controllers in manual to establish a Max Cooldown rate. They will then have to again use the M/A stations to secure the cooldown when the target temperature that they have determined is met. | |||

Thursday, May 19, 2016 5:04:38 PM 1 | |||
QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct:Tcold is the correct indication to use, per EOP-ES-0.1, and because there are no RCPs in service, Tcold is the most accurate indication. Basis is in accordance with WOG Background Document for ES-0.1. | |||
A. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since Tavg is a commonly used indication for many aspects of transients, but in this case, with a loss of offsite power, there is no power to the RCPs, and therefore Tavg is not a reliable indication. The second part is the correct. | |||
B. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since Tavg is a commonly used indication for many aspects of transients, but in this case, with a loss of offsite power, there is no power to the RCPs, and therefore Tavg is not a reliable indication. The second part is plausible since checking for natural circulation is plausible since this is a goal of the procedure, but only towards the end, and is not the specific reason. | |||
C. Correct. | |||
D. Incorrect. The first part is correct, since Tcold is the correct indication to use, since there are no RCPs in service.

Given the following plant conditions: | |||
- A Reactor Trip and Safety Injection have occurred | |||
- Containment pressure is 2.5 psig and rising | |||
- RCS pressure is 900 psig and lowering | |||
- Tavg is 550°F and lowering slowly | |||
- PRZ level is 85% and rising Which ONE of the following identifies the cause of this event? | |||
A. Small break on an RCS hot leg B. Large break on an RCS cold leg C. A stuck open PRZ PORV D. A stuck open PRZ Spray Valve Thursday, May 19, 2016 5:04:38 PM 4 | |||
QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: A steam space (or vapor space) LOCA is occurring as evident by PRZ level rising with RCS pressure lowering and Containment pressure rising. An open PRZ PORV or PRZ Safety will depressurize the RCS and an opening on the PRZ will allow the vapor space to exit the PRZ. Both the PORV and Safety valves relieve to the PRT. The PRT will eventually rupture (100 psig with 2 rupture discs) at which time the relief valves will essetially be relieving directly into the Containment which will cause Containment pressure to rise. Safety Injection flow will cause RCS temperature (Tavg) to lower. | |||
A. Incorrect. Plausible since a break in the RCS to Containment would result in the conditions provided in the stem (rising Containment pressure, lowering RCS pressure, Reactor Trip and Safety Injection and eventually rising PRZ level as SI flow exceeds break flow) except RCS pressure is below saturation pressure so a Small Break LOCA cannot be in progress. | |||
B. Incorrect. Plausible since a break in the RCS to Containment would result in the conditions provided in the stem (rising Containment pressure, lowering RCS pressure, Reactor Trip and Safety Injection and eventually rising PRZ level as SI flow exceeds break flow) except RCS pressure would be rapidly lowering and PRZ level would be lowering to zero or at zero and NOT rising. | |||
C. Correct. | |||
D. Incorrect. Plausible since a stuck open PRZ spray valve failure would result in lowering RCS pressure and rising PRZ level; however this is incorrect because this condition will not result in Containment pressure rising unless there was a break in the RCS or a open release path such as a open PORV or PRZ safety valve. | |||

Given the following plant conditions: | |||
- The crew is implementing EOP-ES-1.2, Post LOCA Cooldown And Depressurization Subquently the following plant conditions exist: | |||
- Containment pressure is 3.4 psig and lowering | |||
- PRZ level is 35% and lowering slowly | |||
- RCS pressure is 1325 psig and stable | |||
- RCS Loop THOT is 555°F in all 3 loops and lowering | |||
- Highest CET indicates 568°F and lowering slowly | |||
- ERFIS is NOT available Which ONE of the following completes the statements below? | |||
For the current plant conditions, SI Re-Initiation is (1) , AND RCS cooldown will be maintained by the (2) . | |||
A. (1) required (2) SG PORVs B. (1) required (2) condenser steam dumps C. (1) NOT required (2) SG PORVs D. (1) NOT required (2) condenser steam dumps Thursday, May 19, 2016 5:04:38 PM 7 | |||
QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: The conditions of the plant are indicative of a small break LOCA. Based on the parameters monitored RCS saturation temperature at 1340 psia is 581.5°F and in accordance with EOP-ES-1.2, to determine if SI re-initiation is required RCS subcooling is required to be greater than 40°F for adverse containment conditions. With CET at 568°F the subcooling margin is 13.5°F. Because containment pressure is above 3 psig a MSLI signal has occurred and the condenser steam dumps are not available therefore the SG PORVs will be used as the method to cooldown the RCS. | |||
A. Correct. | |||
B. Incorrect. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible since the Steam Dumps are the normal method of heat removal post trip; however this is incorrect since contaiment pressure has generated a MSLI the main condenser is not available. | |||
C. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since the RCS subcooling is greater than the 10°F requirement for non-adverse conditions in containment; however this is incorrect because containment is greater than 3 psig and adverse values apply therefore the RCS subcooling is required to be greater than 40°F. The second part is correct. | |||
D. Incorrect. The first part is plausible see B(2). The second part is plausible see C(1). | |||

QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: With a CNMT Spray pump running and 2/4 low-low levels present, the following valves reposition for the running pump: | |||
1CT-105 or 1CT-102, CNMT Sump to CT Pump, opens. | |||
1CT-26 or 1CT-71, RWST to CT Pump, shuts. | |||
During a a large break LOCA after successful initial operation of the ECCS, the reactor core is once again covered with borated water. This water has enough boron concentration to maintain the core in a shutdown condition. Decay heat is removed by a continuous supply of water from the ECCS. This supply initially comes from the refueling water storage tank (RWST). When the RWST level reaches the switchover setpoint the ECCS pumps are transferred into the recirculation mode (using ES-1.3, TRANSFER TO COLD LEG RECIRCULATION) wherein water is drawn from the containment sump and is cooled in the residual heat removal heat exchangers. | |||
A. Incorrect. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible since ALB-001-3-1, Containment High 3 Press Alert, is in alarm the pressure inside CNMT has exceeded 10 psig and the design pressure of CNMT is based on a Main Steamline break inside CNMT; however this is incorrect because ALB-004-2-4, Refueling Water Storage Tank 2/4 Low Low Level, indicates the RWST inventory has been discharged into the CNMT sump which can only occur due to a loss of coolant accident vice a loss of secondary inventory, which reduces the volume of the RCS due to contraction of the RCS volume as a result of cooling down. This change in volume is correctable once the contents of the faulted SG are isolated from the intact SG's requiring only AFW to remove decay heat. | |||
Thursday, May 19, 2016 5:04:38 PM | B. Correct. | ||
C. Incorrect. The first part is plausible if the candidate misapplies the RHR pump CNMT Sump suction valves logic to the CNMT Spray pump CNMT suction valve logic since the RHR pump CNMT Sump suction valves SI-300, 301, 310 and 311 automatically open due to the presence of an SI signal and low low RWST level; however this is incorrect for the CNMT Spray pump CNMT suctions valve because they require the breaker for its associated pump to be closed in addition to the low low RWST level. | |||
The second part is plausible see A(2). | |||
D. Incorrect. The first part is plausible see C(1). The second part is correct. | |||

When the 'A' CSIP tripped Tech Spec 3.1.2.3 could not be met since it requires a CSIP injection pump with the flow path and NO other CSIP is availabe due to being under clearance. The action statement for the loss of boron injection flow paths becoming inoperable is to suspend all operations involving CORE ALTERATIONS or positive reactivity changes. | |||
A. Incorrect. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible if the candidate has a misconception that LCO 3.1.2.1 requires the flow path from the BAT or the RWST to be operable the RWST gravity drain flowpath remains available and the BAT does not have a gravity drain flowpath; however this is incorrect because a CSIP is required to be operable in both 3.1.2.1 AND 3.1.2.3. | |||
A. | B. Correct. | ||
C. Incorrect. The first part is plausible if the candidate has a misconception that the RWST gravity drain flowpath meets the requirements for both LCO 3.1.2.1 and 3.1.2.3; however this is incorrect because a CSIP is required to be operable in both 3.1.2.1 AND 3.1.2.3. The second part is plausible see A(2). | |||
A. | D. Incorrect. The first part is plausible see C(1). The second part is plausible since during refueling the boron concentration in the RCS would be more than adequate to keep the Reactor shutdown with a Keff of more than 0.95 but Tech Spec 3.1.2.1 deals with RCS boration flow paths and not shutdown margins. | ||

- CNMT Wide Range Sump level 138.2 inches Which ONE of the following describes the significance of the indicated CNMT wide range sump level as operators take action to transfer to cold leg recirculation? | |||
A. Sump Boron may be inadequate to maintain the Reactor shutdown. | |||
B. RHR pump NPSH may be inadequate to maintain recirculation. | |||

Thursday, May 19, 2016 5:04:38 PM 16 | |||
QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: Because RWST level is less than 23.4% the RHR system has automatically aligned to the Containment Recirc sump. A loss of RHR would occur in the conditions due to a degraded Contianment sump. Degraded sump performance could only occur if water level fell below this level OR the strainer modules experienced excessive clogging. Inadequate sump inventory can be diagnosed by observation of CNMT Wide Range Sump Level (LI-7162A SA/LI-7162B SB) and Recirculation Sump level (LI-7160A SA/LI-7160B SB). A minimum of 142 INCHES CNMT wide range level ensures the recirculation sump strainers are completely submerged and assures a long term recirculation suction source. | |||
A. Incorrect. Plausible because a CNMT Wide Range Sump high level of 196 inches is associated with RB flooding and could be indicative of a leak of service water, CCW or other non-borated water source into containment, which could lower sump boron concentration to less than expected. However this is incorrect because 138.2 inches. of CNMT Wide Range Sump level is low, not high. | |||
B. Correct. | |||
C. Incorrect. Plausible because a low sump level would indicate that an abnormal Sodium Hydroxide level may be present in the sump, which would affect sump pH. However this is incorrect because in accordance with EOP-ES-1.3 Attachment 1 post-accident sump pH should remain within acceptable limits provided that the RWST inventory is not refilled and subsequently added to the CNMT Wide Range Sump level. | |||
D. Incorrect. Plausible because a CNMT Wide Range Sump high level of 196 inches is associated with RB flooding and would indicate a potential for flooding of vital equipment. However this is incorrect because 138.2 inches. of CNMT Wide Range Sump level is low, not high. | |||

- The plant is operating at 100% power Subsequently PK-444A, PRZ Pressure Master Controller malfunctions | |||
- The crew enters AOP-019, Malfunction of RCS Pressure Control | |||
- PK-444A, PRZ Pressure Master Controller, is placed in MANUAL | |||
- PRZ Pressure is 2050 psig and stable Which ONE of the following describes the action required to return pressure to 2235 psig using PK-444A? | |||
A. Lower the output B. Lower the setpoint C. Raise the output D. Raise the setpoint Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: From the PRZPC Student Text, with the controller in MANUAL, the output of the controller is controlled by two manual pushbuttons. While in MANUAL, pressing the raise pushbutton will affect the system by simulating a pressure that is above reference pressure, therefore, it is sensed as a demand to decrease plant pressure. Conversely,pressing the Lower pushbutton is sensed as a demand by the operator to increase plant pressure. Lowering controller output will energize heaters and raise pressure. | |||
A. Correct. | |||
B. Incorrect. Once in manual adjusting the setpoint will have no effect. Plausible if applicant believes setpoint is still in the control circuitry while in manual. | |||
C. Incorrect. Raising controller output will de-energize heaters/open spray valves lowering pressure. Plausible if candidate doesn't understand the inverse relationship between controller output and actual pressure, ie., believes raising controller output raises pressure. | |||

A. Trip the Turbine from the MCB. | |||
B. Shut all MSIVs and bypass valves. | |||
C. Trip the Turbine locally at the front standard. | |||
D. Manually runback the Turbine using fast action. | |||
Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: EOP-FR-S.1 checks the status of the Turbine Throttle Valve to determine if the Turbine has tripped. In the event the Turbine did not trip automatically the first action directed is to trip the Turbine from the MCB. | |||
A. Correct. | A. Correct. | ||
B. Incorrect. | B. Incorrect. Plausible since this is an RNO action that is procedurally directed in the event that the turbine is not successfully tripped from the main control board. However this is not the most preferred method to trip the Turbine. | ||
C. Incorrect. Plausible since local action is required to Trip the Reactor the candidate may misapply the Reactor Trip breaker local action requirements to the requirements for the Turbine. Additionally the user's guide states that "if the operator cannot satisfy a condition with actions at the MCB, the RNO column should be consulted for instructions regarding local actions. If no local actions are specified in the RNO, the operator should continue attempts to satisfy the condition using all means at his disposal. However this is not the most preferred method to trip the Turbine. | |||

Thursday, May 19, 2016 5:04:38 PM 23 | |||
QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: If SI flow is not terminated, leakage into the secondary will eventually fill the steam generator with water and lift the atmospheric relief valves. | |||
This could damage the relief valve and main steamline which would complicate subsequent recovery and aggravate the radiological consequences. Hence, SI must be terminated when the criteria in subsequent steps are satisfied to prevent steam generator overfill. | |||
A. Correct. | |||
A. Correct. B. Incorrect. | B. Incorrect. Plausible since the RWST is the suction source the ECCS pumps are aligned to following an actuation signal; however for this event since the RCS inventory is being lost into the S/G, the inventory is recoverable once the RCS pressure is reduced below ruptured S/G pressure. | ||
Plausible since the | C. Incorrect. Plausible since operation of the SI system results in reflood of the RCS and once break flow is reduced to less than SI flow the PRZ will refill and repressurize which could result in PRZ PORVs cycling once the PRZ becomes solid; however this is incorrect for this event since the Secondary PORV and Safety setpoints are lower than the PRZ PORV and Safety setpoints which results in the re-establishing of break flow as the RCS inventory is being lost in to the S/G prior to the PRZ PORVs reaching their actuation setpoint. | ||
Plausible since the | D. Incorrect. Plausible since the RWST water temperature is normally maintained less than 125°F, injection of this water source when mixed with the RCS coolant will lower the RCS temperature; however this is incorrect for this event since the inventory is being lost into the S/G the effect of lowering the bulk RCS temperture is mimimal compared to the inventory transfer from the RCS. | ||

Given the following plant conditions: | |||
- EOP-FR-H.1, Response to a Loss of Secondary Heat Sink, is being implemented | |||
C. | - RCS bleed and feed has been initiated Subsequently the following conditions exists: | ||
- All SGs are completely dry and depressurized | |||
- Auxiliary Feedwater capability is restored Which ONE of the following describes the STRATEGY used to re-establish Feedwater AND why? | |||
A. Feed ONLY one (1) SG to ensure RCS cooldown rates are established within Technical Specification limits. | |||
B. Feed ONLY one (1) SG to ensure a failure due to excessive thermal stresses is limited to one SG. | |||
C. Feed ALL SGs to establish subcooled conditions in the RCS as soon as possible. | |||
D. Feed ALL SGs to allow termination of RCS bleed and feed as soon as possible. | |||
Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: One SG is fed at minimal rate to minimize thermal shock and potential damage to the SG tubesheet when SGs are hot and dry. If a failure in an SG occurs due to excessive thermal stresses, the failure is isolated to one steam generator. | |||
A. Incorrect. Plausible as operator is cautioned to control feedwater rates to prevent excessive cooldown for enhanced plant control, not to comply with tech spec requirements. | |||
B. Correct. | |||
C. Incorrect. Plausible as the operator is allowed to depressurize multiple steam generators to allow condensate flow to be used for recovery of heat sink . | |||

A. Incorrect. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible since the 25% | |||
minimum SG level required for Heat Sink is not satisfied the candidate may misapply the CSFST terminus; however this is incorrect since the minimum AFW flow of 210 KPPH is satisfied the CSFST terminus is YELLOW. | |||
B. Correct. | |||
C. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since the normal protocol when transitioning from E-0 is to implement monitoring of the CSFSTs; however this is incorrect because the EOP network actions are based on power being available to one train of ECCS equipment and therefore once power is restored the CSFST's are monitored and the procedure is exited.

The start of 1AH-15A SA will automatically open 1CZ-1 SA, Control Room Normal Supply Intake Valve. | |||
A. Incorrect. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible since the loss of power to the MCR OAI damper radiation monitors results in a Control Room Isolation Signal (CRIS). The CRIS signal will shut both Control Room Normal Supply Intake Valves, 1CZ-1 SA and 1CZ-2 SB. This however is incorrect because the CRIS has a time delay to allow the EDG to restore power to the Safety Bus before the signal will generate an actuation. | |||
B. Correct. | |||
C. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since the loss of power to the MCR OAI damper radiation monitors results in a Control Room Isolation Signal (CRIS). The CRIS signal will trip 1E-9A, Control Room Cooling Unit Normal Exhaust Fan and the candidate may misapply this knowledge to the 1AH-15 SA, Control Room Cooling Unit Normal Supply Fan. This however is incorrect because the CRIS generates a start signal for 1AH-15 SA. The second part is plausible since the 1CZ-1 SA, Control Room Normal Supply Intake Valve repositions based on the status of the 1AH-15A SA and will automatically shut with the air handler not running. This however is incorrect because the CRIS generates a start signal for 1AH-15 SA. | |||
D. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since the loss of power to the MCR OAI damper radiation monitors results in a Control Room Isolation Signal (CRIS). The CRIS signal will trip 1E-9A, Control Room Cooling Unit Normal Exhaust Fan and the candidate may misapply this knowledge to the 1AH-15 SA, Control Room Cooling Unit Normal Supply Fan.

QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: Technical Specification 3.7.1.2 states at least three independent steam generator auxiliary feedwater pumps and associated flow paths shall be OPERABLE with: | |||
: a. Two motor-driven auxiliary feedwater pumps each capable of being powered from separate emergency buses. and | |||
: b. One steam turbine-driven auxiliary feedwater pump capable of being powered from an OPERABLE steam supply system. | |||
EOP-FR-H.1 attempts to restore feedwater flow in the following sequence: | |||
Step 5, Establish AFW Flow To At Least One SG Step 10, Establish Main FW Flow To At Least One SG Step 13, Depressurize One SG To Less Than 500 PSIG AND Establish Condensate Flow Based on the conditions in the stem of the question both MDAFW pumps ( 'B' MDAFW pump has no power and 'A' MDAFW pump has a breaker trip) and the TDAFW pump are not available, and the use of the first preferred source to restore heat sink capabilities with AFW flow is not available. The use of the Main Feedwater system is available via the 'A' train equipment. The 'A' Condensate pump, Condensate Booster pump and Main Feedwater pump all have power available and do not require the SG pressure to be reduced in order to restore feedwater flow. | |||
A. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since both the CCW pumps and the CSIPs only require two of the three available pumps to be operable; however this is incorrect because the Technical Specifications require all three of the AFW pumps to be operable for the LCO. The second part is correct. | |||
B. Incorrect. The first part is plausible see A(1). The second part is plausible since it is normal for ALB-017-5-3, Aux Feedwater Pump A Trouble, to alarm when the 'A' MDAFW pump is started via the sequencer and the pump is available; however this is incorrect because ALB-017-5-4, Aux Feedwater Pump A Trip Or Close Ckt Trouble, is an indication of a breaker trip or breaker control power issue that must be investigated locally. | |||

QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: Operation of RCPs for greater than 10 minutes without CCW cooling to the motor oil coolers may result in RCP bearing damage. | |||
A. Incorrect. This is plausible since AOP-018 has a 3 to 5 minute time window to isolate seal water to a failed # 1 seal. 9 gpm seal leak off flow is indication of a failed # 1 seal; however this is incorrect because the candidate is provided seal injection flow of 9 gpm and this 3 to 5 minute time window is not applicable to the conditions provided. The second part is correct. | |||
B. Incorrect. The first part is plausible see A(1). The second part is plausible since the themal barrier heat exchanger is cooled by CCW flow and it minimizes the temperature gradiant of the RCS to minimize the heat up of the pump radial bearing; however this is incorrect because the requirement to stop the RCP is based on no CCW flow to the Motor cooler not the thermal barrier heat exchanger. | |||

A. Allows opening the associated dampers. | |||
B. Clears the alarm in order to minimize MCR distractions. | |||
C. Ensures the dampers will remain open on rising radiation levels. | |||
D. Ensures alarm and auto-closure occur again on rising radiation levels. | |||
Thursday, May 19, 2016 5:04:39 PM 57 | |||
QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: Alarm response for a radiation monitor in alarm will direct the operator to enter AOP-005. In accordance with note prior to AOP-005, Attachment 4 step 4, reason the alarm setting is adjusted is so that it will alarm on subsequent higher radiation levels and to regain auto-closure capability on high radiation alarm at the emergency OAIs. | |||
A. Incorrect. Plausible since the high radiation alarm generates a Control Room Isolation Signal and the associated (AH-15) dampers reposition; However this is incorrect because adjustment of the alarm setpoint is not required since the associated supply fan dampers are opened via a 42X contact based on the status of the associated fan. | |||
B. Incorrect. Plausible since AD-OP-ALL-1000 defines a nuisance alarm as an alarm although valid, repeated actuation of the alarm distracts the plant operators. AD-OP-ALL-1000 provides guidance to consider disabling alarms that will remain in for an extended period of time. It is possible for the CRS/SM to determine the high radiation alarm is a distraction and direct the setpoint be adjusted in response to a nuisance alarm since the crew will remain in the MCR; However this is incorrect with respect to the requirements of AOP-005 and is not the reason the alarm setpoint is adjusted. | |||
C. Incorrect. Plausible since the Control Room Isolation Signal is a single shot actuation. This can be reset with an alarm condtion present which will result in the defeat of the auto-closure capability during subsequent high radiation conditions; However this is incorrect since the procedure sequence requires the adjustment of the high radiation setpoint above the current value prior to opening the emergency OAI's which will reset the single shot actuation and restore the auto-closure capability. | |||
D. Correct. | |||

Thursday, May 19, 2016 5:04:39 PM 60 | |||
QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: RCS over pressure protection is provided by PRZ PORV's (lift pressure setting of 2335 psig) and PRZ Safety Valves (lift pressure setting of 2485 psig). While checking for a RCS vent path in EOP-FR-C.1 the operator checks that the PRZ PORVs are SHUT. The expected condition of the PRZ PORV's when pressure is | |||
> 2335 psig is OPEN. The procedure instructions when pressure exceeds 2335 psig is to ensure at least ONE PRZ Block valve is OPEN. With a lifting PORV and an OPEN Block Valve RCS pressure can be relieved to the PRT preventing an overpressure event prior to the lifting of the PRZ Safety Valves. | |||
A. Correct. | |||
B. Incorrect. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible since the Reactor Vessel vent valves may be OPEN to relieve RCS pressure; however this is incorrect because they are not designed to prevent an RCS overpressure event. The PRZ PORV's and Safety valves are designed for the prevention of RCS overpressurization. | |||
C. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since the pressure is below the High PRZ Presseure Reactor trip setpoint of 2385 psig the candidate may believe PRZ PORVs have not reach the opening setpoint and are shut; however this is incorrect because the PRZ PORVs lift setpoint is 2335 psig. The second part is plausible since when coupled with the first part the answer "to prevent primary plant depressurization." would be a correct result for the action. | |||
D. Incorrect. The first part is plausible see C(1). The second part is plausible since operation of the RCPs is desired during the implementation of EOP-FR-C.1 with the PRZ PORVs SHUT the RCP seal d/p will be maintained. However this is incorrect because the PRZ PORVs are checked to ensure they prevent an RCS overpressurization event. | |||

During implementation of EOP-FR-Z.1, Response to Containment High Pressure, which ONE of the following is the major concern if ESW Booster pumps are not running and Containment pressure is 35 psig? | |||
A. Potential damage to the ESW pumps. | |||
B. Radioactivity release to the environment. | |||
C. Reduced Containment cooling capability. | |||
D. Reduced Margin to Containment design limits. | |||
Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: In accordance with the EOP-FR-Z.1 step deviation document plant specific Steps 7 through 10 were added to ensure there is no unmonitored release of radioactivity from CNMT through the ESW system. The steps also ensure design heat removal capability is maintained. The ESW system configuration following SI actuation has no remote radiation monitoring capability. A leakage path could exist from CNMT atmosphere if fan cooler tube leaks were present with indicated CNMT pressure greater than 11.6 PSIG, and either the ESW booster pumps or the associated orifice bypass isolation valve failed (ref ESR 951022). These EOP steps isolate the potential ESW release path. | |||
A. Incorrect. Plausible since the higher the CNMT pressure the closer the ESW pump is to its design operating margin of 225 ft of head and therefore the potenial to damage the ESW pump is higher; however this is incorrect because the ESW booster pump and orifice bypass isolations are designed to prevent the ESW Pump from exceeding its design margin. | |||
B. Correct. | |||
C. Incorrect. Plausible since the ESW Booster pump has a higher discharge pressure than the ESW pump therefore the potential for higher flow through the CNMT Fan Coolers is possible; however this is incorrect because the ESW pumps are able to provide cooling for the CNMT Fan Coolers and prevent exceeding the FSAR design limits. | |||
D. Incorrect. Plausible since the higher the CNMT pressure the closer the plant is to the design margin of 45 psig; however this is incorrect because the ESW pumps are able to provide cooling for the CNMT Fan Coolers and prevent exceeding the FSAR design limits. | |||

QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: Because the crew is implementing EOP-ECA-3.1 and the EOP-Users Guide rules of usage dictate any time EOP-E-0 has been exited to transition to another EOP, FRs are to be implemented based on the status of the CSFST. With a valid Orange condition on the CSFST terminus for Containment Flooding the crew will transition to EOP-FR-Z.2 and Step 2 of EOP-FR-Z.2 will have the crew check Containment Sump activity level. | |||
A. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since RWST level is approaching the foldout critieria of 23.4% for Cold Leg Recirculation Switchover at 24.9%; | |||
however this is incorrect because the criteria is not satisfied until RWST level is below 23.4%. The second part is plausible since EOP-ES-1.3 will sample the Primary and Secondary for activity; however this is incorrect because the Containment sump water is only sampled to determine boron concentration and pH. | |||

(Reference provided) | |||
A. Failed B. Degraded C. Blocked D. Repsonding to a #2 seal failure Thursday, May 19, 2016 5:04:39 PM 73 | |||
QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: AOP-018 Attachment 2 Specific Symptoms of Seal Malfunctions #1 Seal degraded. Total #1 seal flow > 6.0 gpm but < 8 gpm (indicated is 7.4 gpm) with both RCP seal water inlet and radial bearing temperature STABLE (as defined in Note 2, "Stable" temperature). A slow rise in temperature or a rise in temperature but at a lowering rate and well below 230°F. Under these conditions, additional time is available to evaluate the trend and contract Engineering. In the absence of additional guidance, if temperature has risen to > 190°F and is still rising, it should be considered STEADILY RISING. Since the temperature is rising at a lowering rate and no temperature has exceeded 190°F these conditions meet STABLE. | |||
A. Incorrect. Plausible since this would be correct answer if the RCP seal water inlet or radial bearing temperature was evaluated as STEADILY RISING. | |||
B. Correct. | |||
C. Incorrect. Plausible since this would be correct answer if the RCP seal flow was lower since both RCP seal water inlet and redial bearing temperatures are STABLE. | |||
D. Incorrect. Plausible since in accordance with AOP-018-Basis Document, discussion item #15 a failure of the RCP #2 seal will result in an rise in the RCP #2 seal leakage flow with a proportionate reduction in the RCP #1 seal leakoff flow. A #2 RCP seal failure does have an effect on the #1 seal flows but will NOT cause a temperature rise of either the seal water inlet or RCP radial bearing temps. Since a #2 RCP seal failure can affect the | |||
#1 seal a candidate could have a misconception that a #2 seal failure would not only cause a #1 seal flow rate change but also cause both Seal water inlet temps and RCP radial bearing temps to rise. | |||

- The unit is operating at 100% power | |||
- RCS boron concentration is 1192 ppm Subsequently the following occurs: | |||
- A new CVCS Cation Bed Demineralizer is to be placed in service and is to be flushed to the Recycle Holdup Tank for sampling | |||
- 1CS-120, Letdown To VCT/ Holdup Tank LCV-115A is placed in the RHT position AND the valve FAILS to reposition | |||
- The Cation Bed Demineralizer flush is initiated Which ONE of the following will occur? | |||
A. RCS Tavg will rise B. RCS pressure lowers C. Letdown flow rises above 60 gpm D. RCS lithium and cesium concentrations rise Thursday, May 19, 2016 5:04:39 PM 76 | |||
QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: 1CS-120 failing to divert will cause a dilution of the RCS with an unsaturated CVCS cation demin placed in service. RCS Tavg will rise due to an increase in Reactor power. In accordance with OP-107.02, CVCS Demineralizer Operations, a caution when placing a Cation Bed in service states that "until a new bed is borated, the effluent boron concentration is less than RCS boron concentrations. | |||
Therefore, if a new cation bed was inadvertantly placed in service RCS boron concentrations would be reduced, Reactor power would rise and Tavg would rise. | |||
A. Correct. | |||
B. Incorrect. Plausible since RCS pressure would tend to rise on a power increase versus lower. RCS pressure lowering is plausible if the candidate were to think the cation bed is borating the RCS while in service or inverts the effects. | |||
C. Incorrect. Plausible since Letdown flow is limited to 60 gpm in accordance with OP-107.2. Limiting Letdown flow to 60 gpm prior to flushing the demin will minimize any RCS inventory losses as voids in the Cation Bed that cannot be removed during the fill and vent are collapsed and pressure surges if the RC filter clogs. Additionally, 1CS-94, Mixed Bed Demins to VCT Isol Vlv is locally throttled with a flow rate NOT to exceed 60 gpm. | |||
This choice is plausible if the candidate thinks letdown flow would increase due to placing the cation bed in service by having an additional flow path for Letdown to travel through. | |||
D. Incorrect. Plausible if the candidate has a misconception (thinks opposite effect) on how the cation demineralizers effect lithium and cesium concentrations in the RCS. Lithium and cesium concentrations would actually lower with the CVCS cation bed placed in service. | |||

Thursday, May 19, 2016 5:04:39 PM 79 | |||
QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: AOP-002 directs the candidate to first start a boric acid pump in order to establish a Boration flow path. If a boric acid pump is not available the operator is directed to open 1CS-291(LCV-115B) and 1CS-292(LCV-115D) RWST supply to the CSIPs, then shut 1CS-165(LCV-115C) and 1CS-166(LCV-115E) to provide a Boration flow path from the RWST to the CSIP suction. | |||
A. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since AOP-002 Section 3.0 step 7 identifies this as part of the actions required to align the alternate boric acid flow path; however this is incorrect because no boric acid pump is running. The second part is plausible since VCT level is at the value which an auto make up will occur and this action will raise VCT level to eliminate the potential for gas binding due to low VCT level; however this is incorrect because gas binding is not a concern until the VCT level is below 5%. | |||

AOP- | AOP-002, Step 6, Rev. 24, Page 5 References to be provided: None Learning Objective: AOP-LP-3.2 Objective 2.a Question Origin: New Comments: HNP does not have a flow path around the boric acid storage tank. Attempted to match the K/A by having the student determine the operational implications of the failure of 1CS-278, Emergency Boric Acid Addition which bypasses the boric acid blender(mixing tee). The student is given the purpose of the flowpath in the stem of the question which is to deliver boric acid from the BAT to the CSIP suction during emergency boration. | ||
See drawing on reference page. | |||
Phonecon 5/03: HNP states that they are concerned about a possible K/A match because the plant design lacks a bypass around the BAST. I dont think this one matches the K/A. Mark Bates didnt think so either. | |||
Mark and I agree that the line from the RWST through 291 & 292 is effectively a flowpath around the BAST, so if you wanted to do something with that you could. | |||

Given the following plant conditions: | |||
- The RCS is in solid plant operation | |||
- 'A' CSIP is in service | |||
- 'A' train RHR is in service providing both core cooling and low pressure letdown | |||
- Letdown Line Pressure Control valve PCV-145, (1CS-38) is in AUTO | |||
- Charging Flow Control valve FCV-122 is being operated with its controller in MANUAL with demand set at 20% | |||
Which ONE of the following will raise RCS pressure? | |||
A. 'A' RHR Pump trips B. Loss of Instrument Air to Letdown Pressure Control Valve, (1CS-38) | |||
C. FK-122.1, Charging Flow Controller (1CS-231), is adjusted towards 0% demand D. 1CC-146, RHR HX Outlet Throttle valve is opened raising flow to the 'A' RHR Heat Exchanger Thursday, May 19, 2016 5:04:39 PM 82 | |||
QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: RHR Pump trip will take away the motive force for Letdown in this circumstance. With Charging in manual, inflow will be greater than outflow, and pressure will rise. | |||
A. Correct. | |||
Thursday, May 19, 2016 5:04: | B. Incorrect. Plausible since the loss of air to 1CS-28, RHR Letdown, will shut this valve raising RCS pressure; however this is incorrect because 1CS-38 is a 'fail open' valve, so pressure would be reduced. | ||
C. Incorrect. Plausible since reducing the setpoint on controllers such as the PRZ Master Pressure controller, Steam Dump controller or SG PORV controller will result in the assosciated valve opening; however this is incorrect because reducing demand on the charging flow control valve will cause the valve to close, lowering charging flow and reduce RCS pressure while the plant is solid. | |||
D. Incorrect. Plausible since the CCW to the RHR heat exchanger will rise; the candidate may misapply this concept and determine the RHR system flow has risen which would raise RCS pressure; however this is incorrect because the heat exchanger outlet temperature would lower reducing RCS temperature and reduce RCS pressure while the plant is solid. | |||

A. | Fleet review of question developed for K/A 005K5.05 resulted in disagreement among the exam writer's that the question may not fully meet the K/A. 2 of the 3 exam writer's felt the question met the K/A based on the candidate having to analyze the conditions in the stem, determine that the plant is solid, then evaluate the 4 operational implications to determine which one would result in the plant response identified in the stem of the question. The exam writer originally in disagreement agreed with K/A match after the explanation of how the question meets the K/A but recommended the question be discussed with the NRC to determine if the question meets the K/A as currently developed. | ||
Phonecon 5/03: HNP states that they are concerned about a possible K/A match based on feedback during their exam review by fleet exam writer's. I think it meets the K/A. I thought distractor A, A CSIP trips was weak (my note to myself was, Why plausible?"). Reading the D/A didnt change my mind. Im not sure thats possible to write, so we might need a different distractor. Distractor D I thought was weak, because its very similar to a pump tripping. Not as sudden, of course, but you get to the same end-state. After reading the D/A I thought, Okay, maybe.. Still weak in my opinion, but plausible enough. | |||

A. Incorrect. Plausible since 1SI-301 will automatically open with a lowering RWST level of 23.4%; however this is incorrect because this annunciator alarms at 94.3% which is above the automatic swap over level of 23.4%. | |||
B. Incorrect. Plausible since 1SI-301 will automatically open with a lowering RWST level of 23.4%; however this is incorrect because this annunciator alarms when 23.4% is sensed on any ONE of the 4 RWST level transmitters reaches 23.4% and automatic swap over requires 2/4 level transmitters to reach a level of 23.4%. | |||
C. Correct. | |||

C. | |||
QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: Annunciator ALB-009-8-1 has multiple inputs that causes the annunciator to alarm. One of which is high temperature which has a setpoint of 120°F. | |||
At 1010 the PRT temperature is above the temperature at which the annunciator will go into alarm. | |||
A. Incorrect. Plausible since at this PRT input temperature annunciator ALB-009-8-2, Pressurizer Relief Discharge High Temp goes into alarm. The alarm comes on when the PRZ PORV discharge line temperature exceeds 140°F as sensed by TI-463. To confirm the alarm the operator checks PRT level, pressure, and temperature for corresponding changes. | |||
B. Incorrect. Plausible since at this PRT input temperature annunciator ALB-009-8-3, Pressurizer Safety Relief Discharge High Temp goes into alarm. The alarm comes on when the PRZ Safety valve discharge line temperature exceeds 250°F as sensed by TI-465, TI-467, or TI-469. To confirm the alarm the operator checks Safety valve discharge line temperatures and PRT level, pressure, and temperature for corresponding changes. | |||
C. Correct. | |||
D. Incorrect. Plausible since an input temperature of > 400°F would require that the Safety valve be declared inoperable. It is an indication that there has been a loss of loop seal. The loss of loop seal may cause the associated safety lift setpoint to shift down to normal operating pressure. PRT input temperature annunciator ALB-009-8-3, Pressurizer Safety Relief Discharge High Temp would have already been in alarm when the PRZ Safety valve discharge line temperature exceeded 250°F as sensed by TI-465, TI-467, or TI-469. The alarm would have been confirmed by they operator checking Safety valve discharge line temperatures and PRT level, pressure, and temperature for corresponding changes. | |||

A. must be started by the operator B. cannot be started until the sequencer is reset C. will start when at least 2 SG levels are less than 25% | |||
D. will start in Load Block 9 due to loss of both Main Feed pumps Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: The failure of the 'B' MDAFW pump sequencer start relay will prevent the automatic start of the 'B' MDAFW pump. Both EOP-E-0 and the EOP-Users Guide direct the operator to attempt to manually start equipment that should have automatically started once the sequencer has reached Load Block 9. | |||
A. Correct. | |||
B. Incorrect. Plausible since the actuation of the sequencer disable redundant automatic start signals during its operation; however this is incorrect because the manual operation of the MCB switch is not defeated during sequencer operation. | |||
C. Incorrect. Plausible since this is an available start signal under normal conditions for the AFW system pumps; however this is incorrect because during sequencer operations this start signal is defeated and will not be restored until the sequencer is reset. | |||

QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: On a loss of IA to 1CC-337, TCV-144 fails full open, raising CCW flow through the letdown heat exchanger, this causes temperature to lower. Lower letdown temperature results in absorption of BA in the demineralizers, resulting in a dilution of the RCS, raising Reactor power to >100% | |||
requiring the crew to reduce power in accordance with AD-OP-ALL-0203. | |||
A. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since multiple CCW isolation valves fail in the shut position. | |||
1CC-304 and 305, Gross Failed Fuel Detector sample isolation valves, 1DW-15, Makeup to the CCW Surge Tank, and both RHR sample cooler heat exchangers are examples; however this is incorrect since TCV-144 opens to ensure the LD Heat Exchanger effluent temperature is reduced in order to protect the downstream piping from over pressurization. The second part is correct. | |||
B. Incorrect. The first part is plausible see A(1). The second part is plausible since letdown system temperature control valve 1CS-50, TCV-143 is a three way valve that realigns to bypass around or align process water flow through the demineralizer beds to protect the demineralizer resin material from damage due to high temperature. If the candidate misapplies the letdown system TCV design and determines TCV-144 operates the same as TCV-143 they would assume that valve would shut to align CCW flow around the heat exchanger. Since the letdown temperature would rise and reduce the absorption of boric acid in the demineralizers. This would result in an uncontrolled boration of the RCS and reduce Reactor power requiring the crew to stabilize the plant at the current reactor power once control of 1CC-337 has been re-established. In accordance with AD-OP-ALL-0203 the crew should stablize the unit at a power level at or below the pre-transient level. However this is incorrect since TCV-144 opens to align more flow through the LD Heat Exchanger. | |||
C. Correct. | |||
D. Incorrect. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible since letdown system temperature control valve 1CS-50, TCV-143 is a three way valve that realigns to bypass around or align process water flow through the demineralizer beds to protect the demineralizer resin material from damage due to high temperature. If the candidate misapplies the letdown system TCV design and determines TCV-144 operates the same as TCV-143 they would assume that valve would open to align CCW flow around the heat exchanger.

In accordance with AD-OP-ALL-0203 the crew should stablize the unit at a power level at or below the pre-transient level. However this is incorrect because the will stabilize at at power level above 100% and power must be reduce to a power level at or below the pre-transient level. | |||

A. CCW heat load lowers B. Thermal expansion of liquid in the PRZ C. PRZ spray valves are shut while drawing a bubble D. Switchover of letdown to orifices from RHR-CVCS cross-connect Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: Thermal expansion of the liquid due to the heaters being energized results in a pressure rise in the RCS. PK-145.1 opens to maintain letdown pressure, resulting in rising letdown flow. | |||

B. Correct. | |||
C. Incorrect. Plausible since the spray valves are shut while a bubble is being drawn; however this is incorrect since PK-145.1 opens to maintain letdown line pressure, not RCS pressure. | |||

QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: Two PRZ pressure detectors provide inputs for the PRZPCS (PT-444 and 445) and three other PRZ pressure detectors provide RPS and ESFAS protective (PT-455, 456 and 457) functions. PRZ LT-461 shares a common reference leg location with PRZ PT-444 and because the sensing line for PT-444 has developed a leak a level error can result from a reference leg leak. PRZ level indication would be erroneously high because the pressure sensed by the reference leg would lower, and the resulting differential pressure would lower and results in the indicated level being higher. This failure can be confirmed by comparison of the other level indications to identify the incorrect channel. | |||
A. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since the PRZ level transmitter provide inputs to both the control and protection functions the candidate may conclude that the PRZ pressure transmitters function in the same fashion. However this is incorrect because PT-444 and 445 only provide input into the PRZ pressure control function and not the RPS or ESFAS protection functions. | |||
PT-455, 456 and 457 provide the inputs for RPS. The second part is correct. | |||
B. Incorrect. The first part is plausible see A(1). The second part is plausible since the candidate has to recall the location of the level transmitter tap in reference to PT-444. The candidate could conclude the connection is on the variable side of the level transmitter and the indicated level will be the same as actual level and lower as inventory is lost through the leak. | |||
However this is incorrect because the connection between LT-461 and PT-444 is via the reference leg and a leak from this location will reduce the transmitter D/P and LT-461 will indicate higher. | |||
C. Correct. | |||
D. Incorrect. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible see B(2). | |||

QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: Train ESFAS slave relays are powered from Instrument Bus SI (SIV). A loss of SI or SIV will result in a loss of ESFAS functions driven by slave relays for that train. | |||
A. Incorrect Plausible since the ESFAS relays are powered from the safety instrument buses. If SI or SIII is lost, the MCB controller for MDAFW pump flow control valves will not be operable; flow control valves will not shut on an AFW isolation signal and will not open on an auto open signal. Train ESFAS slave relays are powered from Instrument Bus SI (SIV). A loss of SI or SIV will result in a loss of ESFAS functions driven by slave relays for that train. A loss of SI will cause a loss of 'A' Train ONLY the question is asking for BOTH 'A' and 'B' Train. | |||
B. Incorrect Plausible since the ESFAS relays are powered from the safety instrument buses. If power is lost to Instrument Bus SII (B Train and TDAFW) or SIII (A Train) the associated AFW pump suction pressure instrument will read low. If the AFW pump is running, it will not trip on Lo-Lo suction pressure nor will it be prevented from being started. Additionally, if power is lost to Instrument Bus SII (B Train) or SIII (A Train), the associated CNMT Spray Additive Tank level indicators will read empty but their associated CNMT Spray Chemical Addition Valve will not automatically shut. If necessary, the valve(s) may be manually operated. | |||
C. Correct D. Incorrect Plausible since the ESFAS slave relays are powered from Instrument Bus SI (SIV). To answer this question it would take BOTH SI and SIV and only one of the two (SIV) are listed. If power is lost to Instrument Bus SII (B Train and TDAFW) or SIII (A Train) the associated AFW pump suction pressure instrument will read low. If the AFW pump is running, it will not trip on Lo-Lo suction pressure nor will it be prevented from being started. | |||

Which ONE of the following identifies the MINIMUM required logic for MANUAL actuation of the Containment Spray System using the MCB Containment Spray activation switches? | |||
A. ANY one of the four switches. | |||
B. ANY two of the four switches. | |||
C. EITHER the LEFT two switches OR the RIGHT two switches. | |||
D. EITHER the INSIDE two switches OR the OUTSIDE two switches. | |||
Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: There are 4 channels for Containment Spray actuation logic on MCB. (2 channels per train) To manually initiate Containment Spray the operator must turn 2 switches on either the left panel or 2 on the right panel (BOTH switches from either train). In addition the Containment Spray logic is an energize to actuate circuit. | |||
A. Incorrect. Plausible since each switch is labeled as CSAS, the operator may misinterpret the labeling and incorrectly believe 1 switch would be sufficient to actuate spray. | |||
B. Incorrect. Plausible because it is partially correct. The reset does require operation of 2 of 4 switches, however they must be the 2 right or the 2 left switches in combination. | |||
C. Correct. | |||

Which ONE of the following is the REASON why Containment Spray is operated in accordance with the guidance from EOP-ECA-1.1, Loss of Emergency Coolant Recirculation, while implementing EOP-FR-Z.1, Response to High Containment Pressure? | |||
A. Actions required by ECA's normally have priority over those in FR's. | |||
B. Containment pressure is expected to be below the HI-3 reset setpoint. | |||
C. Conservation of RWST inventory is required to ensure availability of core cooling. | |||
D. There is no available suction source for the pumps if the recirc sump is unavailable. | |||
Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: In accordance with the ERG Background Document, Guideline ECA-1.1 uses a less restrictive criteria, which permits reduced spray pump operation depending on RWST level, containment pressure and number of emergency fan coolers operating. The less restrictive criteria for containment spray operation is used in guideline ECA-1.1 since recirculation flow to the RCS is not available and it is very important to conserve RWST water, if possible, by stopping containment spray pumps. | |||
A. Incorrect. Plausible since the EOP-Users Guide states "certain E-, ES- and ECA procedures take precedence over some FR procedures because of their treatment of specific initiating events"; however this is incorrect because this precedence will be identified in a Note or Caution at the beginning of the applicable EOP. | |||
B. Incorrect. Plausible since the RWST minimum volume is designed to "assure sufficient water is available within containment to permit recirculation cooling flow to the core and the reactor remain subcritical in cold conditions" it may be assumed the equilibrium containment presssure once the RWST volume is exhausted will be below the HI-3 reset value. | |||
However this is incorrect because the reason to use the less restrictive criteria for containment spray operation from EOP-ECA-1.1. | |||
C. Correct. | |||
D. Incorrect. Plausible since the Containment Spray pump take a suction from the because RWST or the Containment Recirculation Sump; however this is incorrect because EOP-ECA-1.1 determines the availablility of the Containment Recirculation Sump based on the status of the RHR system not the Containment Spray system. | |||

QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: Any Reactor Trip generates a Turbine Trip signal. Since a Turbine Trip signal is present all of the Turbine Throttle valves would be shut and the Auto Stop Trip header would be depressurized causing the Turbine Ventilating valves to OPEN and MSR Non-Return valves to SHUT. 1GS-97 and 1GS-98 automatically open, while 1HD-2, 1HD-3, 1HD-302 and 1HD-303 shut automatically based on the status of the Turbine Throttle valves or the Auto Stop Trip header pressure which are used to determine if the Turbine is tripped or latched. | |||
A. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since with the Turbine tripped 1st stage pressure is reduced to the pressure of the Main Condenser which is less than the 5 psig. The Gland Sealing Steam Spillover Regulator to the condenser to modulates open if header pressure is > 5 psig and therefore the valve would be shut on a turbine trip, however the ventilating valve open to provide a flowpath to the condenser for the steam trapped in the HP turbine. The second part is correct. | |||
- | B. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since with the Turbine tripped 1st stage pressure is reduced to the pressure of the Main Condenser which is less than the 5 psig. The Gland Sealing Steam Spillover Regulator to the condenser to modulates open if header pressure is > 5 psig and therefore the valve would be shut on a turbine trip, however the ventilating valve open to provide a flowpath to the condenser for the steam trapped in the HP turbine. The second part is plausible since the turbine drain valves automatically open following a turbine trip to provide a drain path for the residual steam trapped in the turbine as this steam begins to condense, however this is . | ||
- | C. Correct. | ||
- | D. Incorrect. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible since the turbine drain valves automatically open following a turbine trip to provide a drain path for the residual steam trapped in the turbine as this steam begins to condense. | ||

No automatic start signal has been generated for the TDAFW pump (only 1 SG low-low level has occurred) so the steam supply valves should be closed. | |||
A. Incorrect. Plausible since the valve controller is set at 100% per OP-137, and a MDAFWP start signal has been generated which would open the FCVs from the MDAFW pumps (not TDAFW), however it received an AFW isolation signal due to the Main Steam Isolation signal coincident with high differential steam pressure. Second half is plausible since this valve would open on low-low level in 2 SGs. | |||
B. Incorrect. Plausible since the valve controller is set at 100% per OP-137, and a MDAFWP start signal has been generated which would open the FCVs from the MDAFW pumps (not TDAFW), however it received an AFW isolation signal due to the Main Steam Isolation signal coincident with high differential steam pressure.

QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: OP-134 P&L #9 states: To satisfy Condensate Pump start permissive, the Condensate Pump Discharge Valve has to be open 10 to 13% for the first pump to start and the discharge valve fully open for the second pump to start. With neither Condensate Pump running, taking the Condensate Pump Discharge Valve control switch to the OPEN position and releasing it will cause the valve to open to the 10 to 13% open position. A note in section 5.3 for starting the first condensate pump states: When the breaker for the first condensate pump shuts and MFP suction pressure reaches 210 psig (sensed by PS-2201), the discharge valves for BOTH condensate pumps stroke full open. | |||
A. Incorrect. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible since the A Condensate Pump discharge valve does open after starting the first Condensate pump; however this is incorrect because BOTH Condensate pump discharge valves will automatically fully open when MFW pump suction pressure reaches 210 psig (sensed by PS-2201).. | |||
B. Correct. | |||

QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: APP-ALB-017 window 7-3 is an indication that the TDAFW Pump has loss control power to the governor valve. Without power the governor fails open and is not able to control the turbine speed which results in an overspeed condition on the TDAFW Pump. The APP response provides guidance the the Trip and Throttle valve will shut automatically and the operator is required to manually shut the steam admission valve to the TDAFW Pump 1MS-70 SA and 1MS-72 SB. | |||
- | A. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since the governor valve is controlled via a leakage assembly similar to the Trip and Throttle valve and the candidate may misapply this operation to the cause of the turbine trip alarm and determine the governor valve is shut. However this is incorrect because the governor valve is normally held open by a spring and a hydraulic operator overcomes the spring pressure to modulate the turbine speed. | ||
The second part is correct. | |||
- | B. Incorrect. The first part is plausible see A(1). The second part is plausible since the trip and throttle valve operates when the trip setpoint is reached and shut the steam supply to the TDAFW pump. But inaccordance with the APP the corrective action is to shut BOTH 1MS-70 and 1MS-72. | ||
C. Correct. | |||
D. Correct. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible see B(2). | |||

Given the following plant conditions: | |||
- The 1A-SA EDG started automatically due to an undervoltage condition on 6.9-kV Bus 1A-SA. | |||
Subsequently a 1A-SA Emerg Bus Differential and a Low Lube Oil Pressure signal occur. | |||
Based on the conditions above, which ONE of the following identifies the signal(s), if any, that would result in a trip of the 1A-SA EDG? | |||
A. NEITHER Emerg Bus Differential NOR Low Lube Oil Pressure B. BOTH Emerg Bus Differential AND Low Lube Oil Pressure C. Low Lube Oil Pressure ONLY D. Emerg Bus Differential ONLY Thursday, May 19, 2016 5:04:40 PM 127 | |||
QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: The automatic start of the Diesel due to the undervoltage condition on the 1A-SA Safety Bus results in the bypassing of non-emergency diesel generator trips, additionally with Breaker 105, Emergency Bus A-SA To Aux Bus D Tie Breaker, open the non-emergency diesel generator trips are bypassed. The following five Diesel trips remain active during emergency start conditions: | |||
Overspeed Trip Emergency Stop (Manual) | |||
Emergency Bus Differential Trip Loss Of Both Gen Pot CKS Trip Gen Diff Protection Trip A. Incorrect. Plausible since the diesel started from an emergency start signal due to the undervoltage condition on the 1A-SA Safety Bus which results in all non-emergency trips being bypassed; however this is incorrect since the bus differential trip is an emergency trip this signal will not be bypassed. | |||
B. Incorrect. Plausible since both conditions result in the trip of the diesel during normal (Non-emergency) start conditions; however this is incorrect since the diesel started from an emergency start signal due to the undervoltage condition on the 1A-SA Safety Bus which results in all non-emergency trips being bypassed therefore only the bus differential trip is active. | |||
C. Incorrect. Plausible since this condition will result in the trip of the diesel during normal (Non-emergency) start conditions; however this is incorrect since the diesel started from an emergency start signal due to the undervoltage condition on the 1A-SA Safety Bus which results in all non-emergency trips being bypassed therefore only the bus differential trip is active. | |||

QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: Raising the discharge rate on a battery reduces the battery capacity in a non-linear function such that raising the discharge rate by 1/4, reduces the capacity by more than 25%. | |||
A. Correct. | |||
B. Incorrect. Plausible since the discharge rate has been raised 25%, so it could appear that the capacity would be linearly reduced by 1/4 (4 x .25 = 3 hours, 0815 + 3 hrs = 1115), but this is not correct because it is a non-linear relationship. | |||
C. Incorrect. Plausible since the discharge rate has been raised, so it would appear that the capacity would be reduced based on the time the change in the battery load occurred (15 minutes after the test started) the candidate may misapply this and determine the time to discharge the battery is only reduced by the amount of time between the change in battery load, i.e. 4 hours - 15 minutes = 3 hours and 45 minutes, 0800 + 3 hrs and 45 minutes = 1145), but this is not correct because it is a non-linear relationship. | |||
D. Incorrect. Plausible if the candidate misapplies the concept of the 4 hour battery rating being affected by the change in the discharge rate and determines the change in the load does not affect the discharge rating and the test termination time does not change; but this is not correct because it is a non-linear relationship Thursday, May 19, 2016 5:04:40 PM 131 | |||

Which ONE of the following completes the statement below? | |||
When placing the 1A-SA battery charger in service, the DC output breaker must be closed before energizing the charger from an AC source to . | |||
A. prevent a possible undervoltage battery charger trip B. check for DC bus grounds before energizing the charger C. warmup the charger internals before placing it in service D. allow the charger output filter capacitors to charge from the battery Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: When energizing a Battery Charger, the DC Output Breaker and feeder breaker to the associated Distribution Panel should be closed before energizing the charger from an AC source. This allows the output filters to become charged from the battery, and prevents drawing excessive current through the AC input rectifiers. To prevent a possible High Voltage trip, the output filters should be charged a minimum of 30 seconds before closing the AC Input Breaker. | |||
A. Incorrect. Plausible since the Low DC Volt alarm will be recieved during this evolution; however this is incorrect because the alarm is expected to annunciate. | |||
B. Incorrect. Plausible since the procedure has the candidate test the battery charger for grounds; however this is incorrect because the ground test is not performed until both the DC Output and AC input breakers are closed. | |||
C. Incorrect. Plausible since the procedure has the candidate wait a minimum of 30 seconds prior to closing the AC input breaker and during this time the battery charger internal temperature is rising as a by product of I2 r losses; however this is incorrect because the reason for the 30 second minimum is to prevent an inadvertent High Voltage trip. | |||

Given the following plant conditions: | |||
- Post Maintenance Testing is in progress on the 1A-SA EDG. The 1A-SA EDG has been started in accordance with OP-155, Diesel Generator Emergency Power System The following problems are occurring on the EDG during the test: | |||
- A Fuel Oil leak in the Day Tank room is lowering Day Tank level | |||
- A mechanical failure within the EDG is causing crankcase pressure to rise | |||
- A Jacket Water leak is lowering the Jacket Water Standpipe level | |||
- Debris in the lube oil is clogging the lube oil filter Which ONE of the following would cause an automatic trip of the EDG? | |||
A. Low Low Day Tank level B. High Crankcase Pressure C. Low Jacket Water level D. High Lube Oil Filter P Thursday, May 19, 2016 5:04:40 PM 135 | |||
QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: In accordance with APP-DGP-001 when an EDG is running during a NON-emergency start when EDG crankcase pressure reaches 2.5 psig the EDG will automaticaly trip. | |||
A. Incorrect. Plausible since this is an alarm that will occur when the Fuel Oil Day Tank level decreases to 45.4% and without fuel the EDG cannot run. There isn't an automatic trip associated with low fuel and with the Low Low Day Tank Level (window E-4) alarm in there is still fuel in the day tank and the EDG will continue to run. | |||
B. Correct. | |||
C. Incorrect. Plausible since the lack of Jacket Water will lead to high lube oil temperatures. Lube Oil high temp (window A-1) will trip the EDG during a Non-emergency run when temperatures reach 195°F but the low level alarm for Jacket Water does not automaticaly cause an EDG trip. | |||
Additionally, low level in the Jacket water system could lead to a low Jacket Water pressure which is also a Non-Emergency EDG trip. But, when the low level alarm comes in there is still adequate level in the Jacet Water Standpipe to support EDG cooling. | |||
D. Incorrect. Plausible since a clogged filter could lead to low lube oil pressure which is a Non-emergency trip (window B-2 setpoint 31 psig) but high lube oil filter P is not a direct automatic Non-emergency trip. | |||

- The unit is operating at 100% power | |||
- ALB-010-4-5, Rad Monitor System Trouble, alarms Which ONE of the following completes the statement below? | |||
The (1) radiation monitoring panel used to confirm the alarm in accordance with APP-ALB-010 AND the display/control key push button will (2) to indicate the channel in alarm. | |||
A. (1) RM-11 (2) blink B. (1) RM-11 (2) be solid C. (1) RM-23 (2) blink D. (1) RM-23 (2) be solid Thursday, May 19, 2016 5:04:40 PM 138 | |||
QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: Only safety related radiation monitors provide input in to ALB-010-4-5. All safety related radiation monitors have an associated RM-23 mounted in a safety cabinet in the Main Control Room. APP-ALB-010 directs the operator to confirm the alarm using the RM-23. If a channel high or alert signal is received, the appropriate HIGH or ALERT indicator goes on and the corresponding backlighted channel display/control key BLINKS. The display/control display key can be extinguished by depressing it, but the indicator remains illuminated until the condition clears. | |||
A. Incorrect. the first part is plausible since the RM-11 provides monitoring capability for safety related radiation monitors; however this is incorrect since the RM-11 does not have the ability to change the status of a safety related radiation monitor, RM-23 is directed to be used by APP-ALB-010. The second part is correct. | |||
B. Incorrect. The first part is plausible see A(1). The second part is plausible since the RM-23 primary channel HIGH, ALERT and OPER lights stays solid to indicate the status of the radiation monitor; however this is not correct because the alarm status on the RM-11 will blink until the alarm is acknowledge on the RM-11 console. | |||
C. Correct. | |||

Given the following plant conditions: | |||
- The unit is in Mode 4, performing a cooldown on RHR | |||
- Both trains of CCW are in service | |||
- NSW Pump 'A' is operating | |||
- NSW Pump 'B' is in standby | |||
- Both ESW Pumps are available, but are NOT running Subsequently the following occurs: | |||
- NSW Pump 'A' experiences a sheared shaft Which ONE of the following completes the statement below? | |||
ESW automatically aligns on a low (1) signal to cool (2) train(s) of CCW. | |||
A. (1) flow (2) BOTH B. (1) flow (2) ONLY 'A' C. (1) pressure (2) BOTH D. (1) pressure (2) ONLY 'A' Thursday, May 19, 2016 5:04:40 PM 141 | |||
QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: With the a shaft shear occurring on the running NSW pump the standby pump will not automatically start. The result will be lowering NSW and ESW header pressure due to the loss of NSW flow. Twenty (20) seconds after the associated ESW header pressure lowers to 53 psig the ESW pump will start and realign the header isolation valves in order to restore pressure. Because both trains of CCW are in service to support RHR operation once ESW pressure and flow are restored the system will supply both trains of CCW. | |||
A. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since a shaft shear results in both low header flow and pressure. Additionally multiple cooling systems (Water cooled Air Handling Units) in the plant have the standby unit automatically start when a low system flow is detected; however this is incorrect because the ESW system automatic start signals are generated based on a low system pressure. The second part is correct since both CCW trains are in service. | |||
B. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since a shaft shear results in both low header flow and pressure. Additionally multiple cooling systems (Water cooled Air Handling Units) in the plant have the standby unit automatically start when a low system flow is detected; however this is incorrect because the ESW system automatic start signals are generated based on a low system pressure. The second part is plausible since NSW 'A' is the service water pump supplying the system at the being of the event candidate misinterpret the system response and determine that only the | |||
'A' header will be effected; however this is incorrect because NSW 'A' pump is supplying both service water headers and both will automatically isolate to supply the associated loads. | |||

QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: The lost of Aux Bus 1D will cause CAS to lose power. With the loss of power auto starts will be generated according to the local low pressure transducer switches. C will start at 101 psig, A at 96 psig, and B at 95 psig. 'A' A/C is supplied by emergency bus 1A1 off of the 1A-SA safety bus and has been lost until operator action is taken to restore, once the control room restores power to the 'A' A/C local operator action is require to reset the loss of power relay to restore 'A' A/C to operation. | |||
A. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since the 'A' A/C is the CAS lead compressor in sequence 1; however this is incorrect because the loss of Auxiliary Bus 1D will disable CAS. With CAS disabled compressors will start off of their local low pressure transducer switches (see attachment 7 of AOP-017). | |||
The second part is plausible since this would be correct if 1D had not lost power. | |||
B.Incorrect. The first part is plausible see A(1). The second part is plausible if the candidate believes CAS Sequence 1 and Local Pressure transducer switch start orders are the same; however this is incorrect because the 'C' A/C local low pressure transducer switch will start it at 101 psig. | |||
C. Incorrect. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible if the candidate believes that because the 'C' A/C is disconnected from CAS and it will always start prior to the 'B' A/C as in sequence 3; however this is incorrect because the CAS controller has lost power and is not able to control the | |||
'B' A/C. | |||

Given the following plant conditions: | |||
- The unit is operating at 90% power after a reduction from 100% one hour ago The following indications exist for Power Range % Flux (AFD) and TI-408A, Tavg / | |||
Tref mismatch meters. | |||
Subsequently, the OATC manually withdraws Control Bank 'D' four steps for Tavg control. | |||
Which ONE of the following completes the statement below describing the effects that the rod motion had on the indication for AFD and TI-408A? | |||
The AFD indication became more (1) AND the Tavg / Tref mismatch indication became more (2) . | |||
A. (1) positive (2) negative B. (1) positive (2) positive C. (1) negative (2) positive D. (1) negative (2) negative Thursday, May 19, 2016 5:04:40 PM 150 | |||
QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: The first part of the question deals with AFD. AFD is a measure of the difference of power produced on the upper part of the core compared to power produced in the lower part of the core. If AFD is at zero there is an equal amount of power produced in the upper and lower parts of the core. A positive value indicates that more power is being produced in the upper part of the core where a negative value indicates more power is being produced in the lower part of the core. | |||
Currently AFD is slightly negative (~ negative 1). Control rod withdrawl at 90% will expose more of the upper part of the core to neutrons increasing the power produced in the upper portion of the core. The increase in power in the upper part of the core will cause AFD to become more positive. | |||
The second part of the question deals with a mismatch indication between Tavg and Tref. The indication is a difference in the actual selected median Tavg minus the calculation of value of Tref which is based on Turbine first-stage pressure. As control rods are withdrawn positive reactivity is added to the core which causes the core to produce heat. The increase in heat will cause the measured median Tavg indication to rise which will cause the indication of mismatch of Tavg to Tref to become more positive. | |||
A. Incorrect. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible if the candidate has a misconception about how the mismatch is calculated. If they have it backwards where Tref - Tavg is the readout then as Tavg is increased the mismatch will become more negative. | |||
B. Correct. | |||
C. Incorrect. Plausible since the unit had been ramped down from 100% to 90% one hour ago. The ramp caused a change in xenon conditions which could be thought to impact AFD causing AFD to become more negative and this negative effect could be greater than the positive effect that a rod withdrawl would have on AFD. | |||
D. Incorrect. The first part is plausible (see C.1). | |||
The second part is plausible (see A.2) | |||

Negative could also be acceptable on the Tavg - Tref indication since a candiate could have a misconception and believe that the measurement is the difference between Tref and Tavg. Additionally, the mismatch indication does NOT read out in a temperature, it reads out degrees of mismatch. Also discussed LOD and determined LOD to be at least a 2. | |||

Given the following plant conditions: | |||
- A Reactor startup was in progress when the Reactor trips on Source Range High Flux The following conditions existed at the time of the Reactor trip: | |||
- The crew was verifying proper overlap and preparing to block the SR High Flux Trip | |||
- IR Channel N-35 indicated 4 x 10-11 amps | |||
- IR Channel N-36 indicated 7 x 10-11 amps Which ONE of the following could be the cause of the Reactor trip? | |||
A. IR N-35 failed low causing the trip when P-6 cleared. | |||
B. IR N-36 was overcompensated and caused the trip prior to P-6 being satisfied. | |||
C. SR N-31 pulse height discrimination circuit failed causing an artificially high indication. | |||
D. SR N-32 failed low causing the negative rate bistable to trip. | |||
Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: If the pulse height discriminator is set too low, higher readings will result. | |||
A. Incorrect. Plausible since P-6 automatically unblocks the Source Range NI's when Intermediate Range NI's are below; however this is incorrect since both IR NI's are below the 1 x 10-10 amps therefore P-6 is not yet satisfied. | |||
B. Incorrect. Plausible since IR NI-36 is reading higher than IR NI-35 the candidate may misinterpret the system response to overcompensation; however this is incorrect because an overcompensated NI will result in a lower indicated power level. | |||
- | C. Correct. | ||
D. Incorrect. Plausible since the RPS system generates a Reactor trip signal due to a negative rate trip from the Power Range NI's; however this is incorrect because the Source Range NI's do not generate a Reactor trip due to the change in flux rate. | |||

QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: The flow sensor FS-01RP-7970 provides input into a flow switch to actuate the alarm ALB-027-5-5. While the low flow and thermal overload conditions actuate the ALB-027-5-5, only the thermal overload condition will energize the white light on the fan control switch. Because the Primary Shield Cooling fans do not automatically start the APP response is for the operator to manually start the standby Primary Shield Cooling fans. | |||
- | A. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since the student has to recall the indications on the S-2 fan control switch and this alarm is associated with the white indication light; however this is incorrect because the white indication on the control switch indicates the presence of a thermal overload condition. | ||
The second part is plausible since the containment cooling system fans E80 and 81's for CRDM cooling automatically start the standby fan if a low flow condition occurs; however this is incorrect because the S-2 and S-4 fans do not have an automatic start feature. | |||

Given the following plant conditions: | |||
- The Post Accident Hydrogen Monitoring System is in standby mode | |||
- A LOCA develops inside Containment | |||
- Containment hydrogen concentration is 0.5% | |||
4 days later the following conditions exist: | |||
- Safety Injection system is aligned for Cold Leg Recirculation | |||
- Containment pressure has lowered to atmospheric | |||
- Containment hydrogen concentration is 5% | |||
Which ONE of the following completes the statement below in accordance with EOP-E-1, Loss Of Reactor Or Secondary Coolant? | |||
The Hydrogen Monitoring System is required to be aligned (1) AND the Hydrogen Purge System (2) allowed to be in service. | |||
A. (1) to continuous sample mode (2) is B. (1) to continuous sample mode (2) is NOT C. (1) for remote dilution panel operations (2) is D. (1) for remote dilution panel operations (2) is NOT Thursday, May 19, 2016 5:04:40 PM 160 | |||
QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: During the performance of EOP-E-1 once the Low Head and High Head safety injection systems are in cold leg recirculation mode the hydrogen monitoring system is placed in continuous mode. The hydrogen concentration is monitored until the concentration rises to 4% or more at which time the plant staff evaluates additional recovery actions including the use of hydrogen purge in order to reduce hydrogen concentration. With Containment pressurized the Hydrogen Purge system is designed for operation during atmospheric conditions. | |||
A. Correct. | |||
B. Incorrect. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible since the hydrogen concentration is 4% the potential exist to create and explosive enviornment if oxygen from purge air is mixed in the containment volume; however this is incorrect because the hydrogen purge system is designed to dilute the hydrogen concentration and reduce it below 4% during atmospheric conditions. | |||
C. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since a large break LOCA is in progress; however this is incorrect because remote dilution operation is only required during the performance of post accident sampling. The second part is plausible see B(2). | |||

The design purpose of the Steam Dump System includes (1) as well as (2) . | |||
A. (1) removing residual heat from the primary following a Turbine trip (2) eliminating the need for rod movement during a secondary load rejection B. (1) removing residual heat from the primary following a Turbine trip (2) maintaining the plant in a Hot Standby conditions above the Point of Adding Heat C.

(1) preventing overpressurization of the Steam Generators after an MSIV goes shut (2) maintaining the plant in a Hot Standby conditions above the Point of Adding Heat Thursday, May 19, 2016 5:04:40 PM 163 | |||
QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: In accordance with the FSAR, the Steam dump system is designed to perform the following 4 functions: | |||
a) To permit the plant to accept sudden load rejections up to 50 percent external electrical load without incurring a reactor trip or lifting the main steam safety valves. | |||
b) To remove stored energy and residual heat from the primary system following a turbine/reactor trip. | |||
c) To maintain the plant in hot stand-by condition. | |||
d) To permit manual controlled cooldown of the plant to the point where the Residual Heat Removal System can be placed in service. | |||
A. Incorrect. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible since one of the steam dump system functions is to permit the plant to reject up to 50 percent external electrical load; however this is incorrect because the 50 percent load rejection is based on preventing a trip of the reactor or actuation of the MS Safety valves not prevent movement of the rod control system. | |||
B. Correct. | |||
C. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since the stream dumps relieve pressure from the main steam system; however this is incorrect since the steam dump system taps off the MS system down stream of the MSIVs they are not physically able to relieve SG pressure with the MSIVs shut. The second part is plausible since one of the steam dump system functions is to permit the plant to reject up to 50 percent external electrical load; however this is incorrect because the 50 percent load rejection is based on preventing a trip of the reactor or actuation of the MS Safety valves not prevent movement of the rod control system. | |||
D. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since the stream dumps relieve pressure from the main steam system; however this is incorrect since the steam dump system taps off the MS system down stream of the MSIVs they are not physically able to relieve SG pressure with the MSIVs shut.

In accordance with AOP-005, Radiation Monitoring System, which ONE of the following identifies the response to a HIGH radiation (RED) alarm on the WPB Stack 5 PIG monitor (REM-*1WV-3546)? | |||
A. Alarm only (no auto actions) | |||
B. WG Decay Tank E&F to Plant Vent valve (3WG-229) will shut C. WPB Control Room HVAC System swaps to recirculation mode D. Normal WPB supply fans (S-61's & 62's) and WPB nonfiltered exhaust fans (E-59 & | |||
: 83) trip. Emergency filtration exhaust fans (E-45, 46, 47, & 49) start Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: In accordance with AOP-005 and AOP-005-BD when rad monitor 1WV-3546 (WPB Stack 5) goes in high alarm 3WG-229, WG Decay Tanks E & F To Plant Vent Vlv should automatically shut. | |||
A. Incorrect. Plausible since there are Plant Vent Stack rad monitors that can go into High Alarm but do not have any auto actions. Example: | |||
RM-21AV-3509-1, Plant Vent Stack 1 WRGM can be in ALERT OR HIGH ALARM with NO auto actions. The action would be to manually start a RAB Emergency Exhaust Fan per OP-172, RAB HVAC B. Correct. | |||
C. Incorrect. Plausible since AOP-005 guidance for a rad monitor in alarm for an affected area is to establish proper ventilation for that area (Attachment 3 step 8). Step 8.b has the MCR operators direct the Radwaste Control Room to align WPB Ventilation using OP-171, Waste Processing Building Heating and Air Conditioning. This alignment is in the recirculation mode but the alignment is not something that swaps automatically. | |||
D. Incorrect. Plausible since RAB and FHB ventilation fans trip on High Radiation conditions and the emergency exhaust filtration automatically aligns with the start of the emergency fans. The WPB supply fans have auto trip features. But the trip signals to the supply fans are overcurrent, low temperature, low flow, or smoke detection. They do NOT trip on High Radiation from REM-1WV-3546. | |||

C. Verify that the 'C' Circ Water Pump Bearing/Seal Water Pump starts. | |||
D. Dispatch the Outside AO to shut 'C' Circ Water Pump discharge valve 1CW-12. | |||
Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: In accordance with AOP-012, if a Circulating Water Pump trips, the associated pump discharge valve automatically shuts. The follow up actions of AOP-012 have the status of the automatic action verified using the pump and valve MCB indications. | |||
A. Incorrect. Plausible since the vacuum has degraded past the <60% Turbine load trip setpoint of 5.0 inches Hg; however this is incorrect because the turbine load is 75% and the >60% Turbine load trip setpoint is 7.5 inches Hg. | |||
B. Correct. | |||
C. Incorrect. Plausible since the bearing/seal water pump on other large plant components, RCP's, Main Turbine, etc., automatically start or are continuously in-service to ensure the bearings are adequately cooled during coast down of the component; however this is incorrect because the required seal flow for the CWP's pump seals during coast down is provided by the pump discharge. | |||

QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: In accordance with AD-OP-ALL-1000, Conduct Of Operation Starting or stopping plant equipment of 4 kv loads or greater that are operated from the Control Room. | |||
(1) When starting or stopping plant equipment, Operations personnel will announce the planned activity with direction for plant personnel to stand clear of the equipment. | |||
(2) For equipment with electrical switchgear 4 kv or greater, the announcement includes direction to stand clear of its associated electrical switchgear. | |||
A. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since the AD-OP-ALL-1000 states Operations personnel make plant annoucements to alert personnel in the plant of changing plant conditions and the candidate may conclude that closing a 480V breaker is a change in plant conditions; however this is incorrect because AD-OP-ALL-1000 requires a plant announcement for the closing operation of a breaker that is rated greater than 4kV. The second part is plausible since breakers are located in various rooms throughout the plant, 286' RAB, 286' Turbine building, etc. the candidate may determine they are required to announce the room location of the switchgear as the minimum to be announced; however this is not correct since the minimum required in accordance with AD-OP-ALL-1000 is to announce stand clear of the switchgear not the entire switchgear room. | |||

- | |||
- | |||
QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: AOP-031 has the crew verify that the Transfer Cart is parked in the FHB. The cart is currently on the Reactor side and therefore the MCR crew would direct the Fuel Handling crew to move the Transfer Cart to the Fuel Handling Building side. IF the Fuel Transfer Cart is on the Reactor side the Fuel Transfer Gate Valve 1PP-427 cannot be shut due to the design of the Fuel Transfer system at HNP. | |||
A Correct. | |||
B Incorrect. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible since another procedure will direct Maintenance to install and inflate the Fuel Pool gates; however this is incorrect because this is the direction that would be provided in AOP-041 for a loss of Fuel Pool Level but is not a direction from AOP-031. | |||
C. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since the Fuel Transfer Cart can traverse from the REACTOR side or the FUEL HANDLING BUILDING side during refueling operations the candidate may misapply the required location in order to remove the cart emergency cable from the travel path of the Fuel Transfer Tube Gate Valve. However this is incorrect because the cart is required to be on the FUEL HANDLING BUILDING side of the transfer tube in order to remove the cart emergency cable from the travel path of the Fuel Transfer Tube Gate Valve.

: | Given the following plant conditions: | ||
- An RCS heatup is in progress | |||
- RCS temperature is 358°F | |||
- 1B-SB EDG is declared INOPERABLE due to failure of the shutdown relay Which ONE of the following identifies (1) the current plant OPERATIONAL MODE and (2) the Technical Specification requirements regarding Mode changes? | |||
A. (1) Mode 3 (2) Change to Mode 2 may be performed provided the TS 3.8.1, AC Sources - | |||
Operating, Action Statements for 1B-SB EDG inoperability are satisfied. | |||
B. (1) Mode 3 (2) Change to Mode 2 may NOT performed. | |||
C. (1) Mode 4 (2) Change to Mode 3 may be performed provided the TS 3.8.1, AC Sources - | |||
Operating, Action Statements for 1B-SB EDG inoperability are satisfied. | |||
D. (1) Mode 4 (2) Change to Mode 3 may NOT performed. | |||
Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: Mode 3 is defined in Tech Spec Table 1.2 as a plant condition where the average coolant temperature is > 350°F Tavg. With an RCS Tavg of 358°F Tech Spec Mode 3 applies. Tech Spec 3.8.1.1 states that in Modes 1-4 as a minimum two seperate and independent diesel generators must be operable. With the 1B-SB EDG declared inoperable and is required to be returned to operational within 72 hours or the unit be placed in HSB within the next 6 hours (already below HSB - Mode | |||
: 3) and in Cold Shutdown (Mode 5) within the following 30 hours. Since the EDG is inoperable Tech Spec 3.0.4 applies. A change of operational modes shall not be made when the conditions for the LCO are not met and the associated action requires a shutdown if they are not met within a specified time interval. | |||
A. Incorrect. The first part is correct The second part allowing a Mode change is plausible because some Tech Specs indicate TS 3.0.4 is not applicable. | |||
In this instance, 3.0.4 does apply, and even though action requirements are met, the LCO does not have an indefinite time requirement as defined by TS section 3.0. | |||
B. Correct. | |||
Thursday, May 19, 2016 5:04:41 PM 187 | |||
QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal C. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since Hot Stutdown is Mode 4, which is 350°F > | |||
Tavg > 200°F and the temperature of 358°F is >350°F. The second part allowing a Mode change is plausible because some Tech Specs indicate TS 3.0.4 is not applicable. In this instance, 3.0.4 does apply, and even though action requirements are met, the LCO does not have an indefinite time requirement as defined by TS section 3.0. | |||
D. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since Hot Stutdown is Mode 4, which is 350°F > | |||
Tavg > 200°F and the temperature of 358°F is >350°F. The second part is correct as the actions are correct since they represent the wording in Tech Spec 3.0.4 which does not allow for a Mode change with an inoperable component that has an LCO with an shutdown action time. | |||

QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: In accordance with APP-ALB-008 window 2-2 if the RCP Seal Injection flow remains below 4 gpm for 2 minutes and 30 seconds, the ASI SQUIB valves (1ASI-21 & 1ASI-22) are actuated and the ASI Pump starts 15 seconds later. | |||
Review of CWD 2166 B-401 0210 determines in both the START and AUTO switch positions contact 5-6 is closed to energize the 42 and 42Xrelays when the 2-3/210A relay contacts 3-5 are closed. With the 2-3/210A relay contacts closed the power applied to the 42X relay will close the 42X 9-10 contacts maintaining the 42 relay energized until CS-210.1 is taken to STOP A. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since the ASI system squib valve will actuate at 2 minutes and 30 seconds after the RCP Seal injection flow is below 4 gpm; however this is incorrect because the ASI pump does not start until 2 minutes and 45 seconds have elasped. The second part is plausible since 49/MR contact is required to be closed in order for the 42 and 42X relays to be energize; however the CWD is shown in the de-energized state, therefore the 49/MR contact in the ASI Pump motor starting circuit is open when the 49/MR is energized. | |||
B. Incorrect. The first part is plausible see A(1). The second part is correct. | |||
- | C. Incorrect. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible see A(2). | ||

Which ONE of the following is a condition that would result in excessive radiation exposure rates in the Containment (Keyway) Sump Area during a refueling outage? | |||
A. Movement of irradiated fuel in the reactor vessel. | |||
B. Withdrawal of the Incore Detectors from the core. | |||
C. Draining the RCS to mid-loop prior to core off load. | |||
D. A leak in the Auxiliary Building results in lowering Reactor Cavity level. | |||
Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: In accordance with OP-106, This procedure provides the radiological controls and approvals required per IER 11-41, Unplanned Personnel Exposures from Highly Radioactive In-Core Components. A radiation hazard exists in the containment during operation of the incore instrumentation system and when placing the detectors in storage. | |||
A. Incorrect. Plausible because the candidate may not understand location differences inside containment. Shielding would be provided by the Reactor Cavity water level. In addition, the distance between a worker in the sump and a fuel assembly in transit would increase as the fuel assembly was removed from the core. | |||
B. Correct. | |||
C. Incorrect. Plausible because the candidate may not understand location differences inside containment. Shielding would be provided by the Reactor Cavity water level. In addition, the distance between a worker in the sump and a fuel assembly in transit would increase as the fuel assembly was removed from the core. | |||
D. Incorrect. Plausible if the candidate did not understand how this leak affects RCS level and dose rates. A leak in the Aux Building could not cause RCS level to drop below the bottom of the RCS loops. In addition, lowering cavity level would affect dose rates in the region above the vessel flange. | |||
Someone in the sump would be in a location below the vessel flange and would be unaffected. | |||

Given the following plant conditions: | |||
- The unit is operating at 100% power | |||
- ALB-014-1-1B, SG A NR LVL/SP HI/LO DEV alarms | |||
- 'A' Steam Generator level is 51% and lowering | |||
- 'B' and 'C' Steam Generator levels are 57% and stable | |||
- FCV-478, SG A is throttling SHUT Based on these conditions which ONE of the following actions should be the MINIMUM performed in accordance with the APP-ALB-014? | |||
A. take manual control of FCV-478, SG A and restore SG level B. perform the immediate actions of AOP-010, Feedwater Malfunctions C. wait for CRS permission before taking manual control of FCV-478, SG A D. wait for control bands and trip limits before taking manual control of FCV-478, SG A Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: In accordace with the alarm procedure for SG A narrow range level going out of normal band of 52% to 62% the operator should check steam flow and feed flow for deviation and is the assoicated SG Flow Control Valve (FCV) is not sufficiently controlling level, switch the control to manal and restore level to normal (57% narrow range) | |||
A. Correct. | |||
B. Incorrect. Plausible since AOP-010 provides operator actions for Feedwater Regulator Valves that are NOT properly operating in AUTO by controling SG level with the Feedwater Regular Valves in MANUAL and maintaining SG levels between 52% and 62% but the expectations found in AD-OP-ALL-1000 for procedure compliance section 5.17.2 states: Written procedures are not necessary for situations where conditions exist which may require timely actions due to failure of automatic control systems or uncertain equipment status (e.g., taking manual control of hand/auto stations, position of selector switches, ect.) Operators at HNP are trained to take manual control of the FCV for a SG that has a manfunctioning controller rather than implementing AOP-010. The guidance for taking manual control is also found in OMM-001, Operations Adminstrative Requirements, Attachment 13. "During a transient situation, the RO/BOP may take manual control of a controller to prevent a transient or trip. The CRS will provide necessary guidance to the RO/BOP to stabilize the plant per this procedure for the affected controller. " Student text for SG Water Level Control states: | |||
AOP-010 - A failure of the SGWLCS can result in inadequate feed flow. | |||
This problem can be addressed by AOP-010. If it is due to an instrument Thursday, May 19, 2016 5:04:41 PM 200 | |||
QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal or controller failure, the operator can take manual control per OMM-001 guidance. | |||
C. Incorrect. Plausible since in accordance with AD-OP-ALL-1000 section 5.18.3, 2.b (1) Controllers/components and bypasses should be placed in manual control using the following guidance: Prior to taking manual actions, if known, the abnormal condition and the cause shall be communicated to the CRS. Although there is a communication from the individual that is placing the automatic controller to manual there isn't a need to wait for permission from the CRS to do so. In accordance with OMM-001, Operations Administrative Requirements section 5.1.11 2, the CRS shall direct control limits whenever controllers are placed in manual. The RO and BOP must understand these limits and implement the actions when the limits are reached. These actions must be taken without delay. This does not imply that CRS permission is required to initially place the controller in manual to prevent a transient or trip. | |||
OMM-001, Attachment 13. "During a transient situation, the RO/BOP may take manual control of a controller to prevent a transient or trip. The CRS will provide necessary guidance to the RO/BOP to stabilize the plant per this procedure for the affected controller. " | |||
D. Incorrect. Plausible since in accordance with AD-OP-ALL-1000 section 5.18.3, 2.c (1) Placing control systems in manual may require periodic manual adjustments in order to maintain desired plant conditions. The following shall be discussed with the CRS prior to placing any portion of a control system in manual: (b) control bands. | |||
Although the control bands are discussed with the CRS it is NOT required to wait for the CRS to provide these control bands prior to placing the controller in manual. In accordace with OMM-001 the CRS shall provide control bands whenever controllers are placed in manual. This does not imply that CRS permission is required to initially place the controller in manual to prevent a transient or trip. | |||

ES-0.1, Reactor Trip Response, Rev. 2 AOP-002, Emergency Boration, Rev. 24 Handout: Use simulator copy of EOP-ES-0.1 and AOP-002 Time Critical Task: No Validation Time: 8 minutes Critical Step Justification The operator must start one of the two BA pumps. A boric acid pump has to be running to deliver boric acid flow. The Boric Acid Tank provides the most preferred source of borated water for emergency Step 3 boration. If a Boric Acid Pump cannot be started, the RNO directs the operator forward to the step for establishing the flow path from the RWST. | |||
1 | After the emergency boration flow path cannot be established due to 1CS-278 failing to open the operator must establish an alternate boration valve lineup to establish a boration. Flow is established from Step 5 the BA Tank via a BAT pump through FCV-113A and FCV-113B to CSIP suction. This provides a method for the control room operator to use the preferred flow path if 1CS-278 cannot be used. | ||
A flow rate of > 30 gpm ensures that the boron concentration and Step 6 required flow of the action statements of LCOs 3.1.1.1 and 3.1.1.2 are being met. | |||

Appendix C Page 2 of 12 Form ES-C-1 Worksheet Task Standard: Determine the required core exit temperature based on the lowest ruptured SG pressure then cooldown the RCS to this target temperature utilizing the Steam Dumps and SG PORVs. | |||
- | Required Materials: None General | ||
==References:== | |||
NRC | EOP-E-3, Steam Generator Tube Rupture, Rev. 1 Handout: Use simulator copy of EOP-E-3 Time Critical Task: No Validation Time: 15 minutes Critical Step Justification Critical to determine the required core exit temperature is 495°F by identifying that ERFIS is NOT available and the lowest ruptured SG pressure (C SG) is 900 to 1000 psig. Without the correct temperature the Step 2 cooldown will be either stopped too soon which will require additionally cooldown later OR later than required and delay making progress through E-3. | ||
1 | Critical to place Steam Dumps to Steam Pressure mode to allow manual Step 5 control of Steam dumps to establish a Max Rate RCS cooldown. | ||
Critical to momentarily place Both Steam Dump Interlock Bypass Switches Step 7 To INTLK BYP if these switches are not taken to this position the Steam Dumps will not open. | |||
Critical to dump steam from intact SGs to condenser at Maximum Rate Step 9 which will decrease RCS temperature which will enable the operator to depressurize the RCS to equal the ruptured SG pressure. | |||
Critical to identify that the MAX RATE cooldown has stopped and the Steam Dumps have closed. Then reestablishes Max cooldown using SG PORVs. | |||
Step 10 If this is not recognized then the RCS will not be able to be depressurized to the ruptured SG pressure to stop the tube leakage. | |||
Critical to stop the RCS cooldown by securing the B and C SG PORVs prior to either Core Exit TCs reaching 480°F or 470°F if using Thot Step 12 indications for cooldown (due to readability of scale) to prevent RCS overcooling which would delay the RCS depressurization to ruptured SG pressure. | |||
Setting the SG PORV controllers correctly prevents a delay in RCS Step 13 depressurization to ruptured SG pressure. | |||

* Isolate A SG and shut A SG MSIV | |||
* Allow the Simulator to run to obtain the following conditions (approximately) o RCS temp 546° o PZR Pressure ~1800 psig o A SG Pressure ~ 940 psig (To get the above PZR pressure we opened the PZR Spray a few times to lower RCS pressure down otherwise you will have problems with RCS pressure causing an SI signal and a distraction that you would not want during the JPM. Also opened the A SG PORV to bring down pressure to be at the low end of the 900 - 1000 range. | |||

== | ==References:== | ||
EOP-E-0, Loss Of Reactor or Secondary Coolant Rev. 4 Handout: Simulator copy of EOP-E-0 Time Critical Task: No Validation Time: 10 minutes CRITICAL STEP JUSTIFICATION The RCP trip criteria should be monitored continuously while in EOP-E-0. Securing ALL 3 RCPs when EOP-E-0 foldout RCP Trip Step 1 Criteria is met is a required operator action to reduce the amount of RCS mass pumped out of the break. | |||
Starting one train of Containment Spray system will reduce Containment pressure. The combination of a CT pump running and the Containment Step 11 Ventilation system prevents the Containment from exceeding the design pressure limit during a LBLOCA. | |||
An automatic Phase B has occurred when Containment Pressure exceeded 10 psig. A Phase B actuation causes all CCW cooling to the Step 12 RCPs to automatically isolate. The RCPs cannot operate for prolonged periods when CCW flow to the RCP heat exchangers does not exist. | |||
Securing the RCPs will prevent motor damage due to excessive heat. | |||

EOP ECA-0.0 Step 9 Directs energizing AC Emergency Buses from Offsite Power using Attachment 1 The attachment allows flexibility of energizing Emergency Bus A with steps 2-8 or B with steps 9-15. There isnt a fault indicated on either bus so a candidate should NOT be suspecting that either bus has a fault. Butyou never know. | |||
Since the JPM is going to be ran as an ALTERNATE PATH the candidate has the choice of attempting to re-energize either bus first. Either choice will yield a failure of energizing the first bus Evaluator Note: but will have a success path for energizing the second bus. | |||
Since there could be a decision made by the candidate on which bus to restore first the JPM has a Part A (steps 2-8) and Part B steps 9-15). | |||
IF the candidate starts with trying to energize the A bus (more than likely) use Part A of the JPM. | |||
IF the candidate starts with trying to energize the B bus (least likely - maybe suspects a fault due to failure of EDG B to start) use Part B. | |||

Event 1 The first evolution for the crew is to commence a power reduction at 4 DEH Units / min from 100% to 95% in preparations of securing the A Heater Drain Pump. It is expected that the SRO will conduct a reactivity brief. | |||
Verifiable actions: The RO will borate as necessary to lower power and monitor automatic operation of rod control. The BOP will operate the DEH Main Turbine controls as necessary to reduce turbine load. The BOP will secure the A Heater Drain pump. | |||
Event 2 Failure of the Tref Processor (fails low). The crew should enter AOP-001 and carry out the immediate actions. | |||
Verifiable actions: The OATC will perform the immediate actions of AOP-001 by verifying that | |||
<2 rods are dropped (no rods have dropped), place Rod Control in MANUAL and then verify no rod motion. With concurrence from the SRO the OATC will restore Tave to pre-failure conditions by withdrawing the rods in manual. | |||
Event 3 SG B controlling level transmitter LT-486 fails low. Flow and level will rise as observed on B SG FI-486, FI-487 and NR level instruments LI-483, LI-484 and LI-485. | |||
Verifiable actions: The BOP should report and respond to annunciator ALB-014-5-3A Steam Gen B NR Low Level. The BOP should take manual control of the B SG flow control valve and lower the output of the M/A station to restore level to 57% Narrow Range. | |||
The SRO should provide trip limits and level bands IAW OMM-001 Attachment 13. The SRO directs the implementation of OWP-RP-06. | |||

Event 4 Failure of VCT level transmitter LT-115 (low). This failure will cause an automatic make up to the VCT to initiate. The crew should identify the failed level transmitter then enter AOP-003, Malfunction of Reactor Makeup Control. There are no immediate actions associated with AOP-003. | |||
Verifiable actions: The OATC will respond to the Reactor Makeup Control system malfunction and place the Reactor Makeup Water Control Switch to STOP. This action will secure the unneeded VCT makeup caused by the level transmitter failure. The SRO will contact Maintenance to investigate and repair the failure. | |||
Event 5 C Accumulator nitrogen leak causes pressure to decrease until annunciator ALB 01-9-1 alarms. | |||
Verifiable actions: The crew should respond to the low pressure condition and restore the Accumulator pressure to normal. The OATC will verify open 1SI-287, ACCUMULATORS & | |||
PRZ PORV N2 SUPPLY then OPEN the ACCUM N2 SUPPLY/VENT for the C Accumulator: | |||
1SI-297 for ACCUMULATOR C N2 Supply & Vent. | |||
Tech Spec Evaluation: The SRO should declare the C Accumulator inoperable per Tech Spec 3.5.1, due to being connected to Non-Safety piping (a one hour action statement in Modes 1 through 3 above 1000 psig). Additionally, The SRO should evaluate Tech Spec 3.5.1 for Accumulator pressure if pressure gets below Tech Spec operability limit. | |||

Event 6 DEH pump shaft shears and auto start failure of the standby DEH pump. When DEH pressure decreases to < 1600 psig annunciator ALB-020-4-2B EH Fluid Low Press will alarm. | |||
Verifiable actions: The BOP should manually start the standby DEH pump prior to system pressure reducing to <1500 psig. If the standby pump is not started prior to DEH pressure decreasing to < 1500 psig they should identify that the standby pump auto start feature has also malfunctioned. Once the standby pump is started DEH system pressure will return to normal. | |||
- | With DEH pressure decreasing the crew should dispatch an Aux Operator to investigate the DEH system for indications of leakage or pump failure. | ||
*NOTE: IF the crew does not respond to this event by starting the standby DEH pump they would enter AOP-038, Rapid Downpower when DEH fluid pressure drops to | |||
<1500 psig. Entering AOP-038 is ONLY appropriate IF the standby pump is not available. IF the crew fails to start the standby DEH pump system pressure will continue to slowly decrease. When system pressure decreases to 1150 psig an automatic Turbine Trip on Auto Stop Oil Pressure will occur. (ALB-018 window 3-4). Without any actions the crew would create an unanticipated critical task by allowing the Turbine trip to occur which would then cause an automatic Reactor Trip (Reactor Trip Turbine Trip P-7). | |||
(See Note after critical task justification statements for details on unanticipated critical tasks.) | |||
IF | Event 7 - MAJOR (Leading to Loss of Heat Sink) | ||

IF | Verifiable actions: The OATC should manually trip the Reactor IAW AOP-010 actions for loss of a Feed Water pump with initial Reactor power above 90%. | ||
Two minutes after the A MFW pump trips the B MFW pump will trip. The crew should recognize that the second pump has tripped by MCB annunciators, pump indications and Steam Generator level changes. | |||

Event 8 Main Turbine fails to automatically trip. In accordance with EOP-E-0, Reactor Trip or Safety Injection immediate action 2 the BOP should identify the automatic trip failure of the Main Turbine due to none of the Turbine Throttle valves indicating closed. | |||
Verifiable actions: The BOP should manually trip the Turbine in the preferred order: Turning the MCB Turbine trip switch to trip (this action if performed will be successful). If this action is NOT performed RNO actions would be: depress the Turbine Manual pushbutton on DEH then simultaneously depress the Fast Action and GV Lower push buttons or shut the MSIVs. IF the follow up actions are performed without first manually tripping the Turbine using the trip switch it does not constitute a failure since the Turbine will be tripped but the trip would be unnecessarily delayed. | |||
( | Event 9 MD AFW Pump A trips immediately upon starting. | ||
If | Verifiable actions: The BOP will identify a MD AFW pump trip by annunciator ALB017-5-4, Aux Feedwater Pump A Trip or Close Ckt Trouble alarm. At this time IF the TD AFW pump has not auto started on SG low levels the BOP should determine that starting the TD AFW pump is required and open both MS-70 and MS-72 steam supply valves to the TD AFW pump to maintain AFW flow to the Steam Generators. | ||
Event 10 Event 10: TDAFW Pump trips, (timing controlled by Lead Evaluator) while implementing EOP-ES-0.1, Reactor Trip Response. Annunciator ALB-017-7-4, Aux Feedwater Pump Turbine Trip. | |||

A RED path will exist for EOP FR-H.1, Response To Loss of Secondary Heat Sink due to a loss of all Feedwater flow to the SGs (< 210 KPPH) and Narrow Range levels in ALL SGs < 25%. Once identified the crew should make transition to EOP-FR-H.1. | |||
- | Verifiable actions: The OATC will secure ALL RCPs while the BOP continues efforts to restore AFW flow. The OATC will depressurize the RCS and block auto SI signals. The BOP will depressurize one SG to < 500 psig then establish Condensate flow to the SGs. | ||
The scenario ends when Condensate flow is established and verified to one SG. | |||

: 2016 NRC EXAM SCENARIO 1 (continued) | |||
CRITICAL TASK JUSTIFICATION: | |||
: 1. Initiate a MANUAL Turbine trip (Prior to the receipt of the Low Steam Line Pressure SI signal) | |||
Without tripping the main Turbine adverse consequences or significant degradation in the mitigative capability of the plant will occur. Taking actions will prevent the actuation of the ECCS. If the ECCS is allowed to actuate it will fill the RCS and challenge the RCS pressure boundary by challenging the Pressurizer PORVs and code Safety valves. Also, WOG ERG-Based Critical task E-0, Manually trip the main Turbine before a severe (Orange Path) challenge develops to either the Subcriticality or the Integrity CSF or before transition to EOP-ECA-2.1, Uncontrolled Depressurization of ALL Steam Generators) whichever happens first. | |||
: 2. Establish Condensate flow to the SGs before RCS bleed and feed required Failure to establish feedwater flow to any SG results in the crews having to rely upon the lower-priority action of establishing RCS bleed and feed to minimize core uncovery. This constitutes incorrect performance that fails to prevent degradation of any barrier to fission product release. The analyses presented in the ERG Background Document for FR-H.1 demonstrate that a complete loss of heat sink occurs when the SG inventories deplete (dry out). Unless some form of SG inventory is restored, the SG dryout deteriorates primary-to-secondary heat transfer, allowing core decay heat to increase the RCS temperature and pressure. The increasing RCS pressure automatically forces the pressurizer PORVs to open, which creates a small-break LOCA and simultaneously degrades the RCS fission-product barrier. As long as the RCS pressure remains high, the flow out the PORVs exceeds the ECCS flow into the RCS, which depletes RCS inventory. Eventually the core starts to uncover, degrading the core cooling CSF. | |||
Once the core is uncovered, fuel temperatures increase rapidly until severe fuel damage occurs, unless some form of core cooling is restored. Fuel over-heating constitutes severe degradation of a fission-product barrier (fuel matrix/clad). Establishing feedwater flow into the SGs offers the most effective recovery action to restore the heat sink. The introduction of feedwater flow immediately restores SG inventory and re-establishes primary-to-secondary heat transfer, decreasing RCS pressure and cooling the core. The RCS pressure decrease then precludes the opening of the PORVs and degradation of the RCS barrier. | |||
Note: An unanticipated critical task may be created in a scenario should an applicants action or lack of action cause an unexpected RPS or ESFAS actuation.

The BOP should review annunciator ALB-022-3-1, Unit Aux Xfer-A Trouble response and dispatch an operator to locally investigate the cause of the alarm. | |||
The report from the AO will be that all transformer cooling is lost. The crew should recognize this meets the entry conditions of AOP-039, Startup And Unit Auxiliary Transformer Trouble. The crew should monitor EFRIS to determine the UAT 1A temperature is approaching the limit that will require the transformer to be unloaded within 30 minutes. | |||

Event 6 - MAJOR - Main Steam Line Break outside of Containment Main Steam Line Break outside of Containment Verifiable Actions: The crew will trip the Reactor, initiate SI and enter EOP E-0, Reactor Trip or Safety Injection. | |||
Major Event: The crew will transition from E-0 to E-2 to EOP-ECA-2.1, Uncontrolled Depressurization of All Steam Generators. ECA-2.1 will also direct shutting air to RAB 261. ECA-2.1 will direct that feed flow is lowered to 12.5 KPPH to each SG. This will cause a RED PATH for FR-H.1 and require the crew to transition into the Loss Of Heat Sink procedure. Since the low flow (< 210 KPPH) was initiated by the operators and a flow rate of > 210 KPPH is available the crew will transition back into ECA-2.1. After returning into ECA-2.1 a cue will be provided to the Simulator Operator to shut the A and C MSIVs. This action will simulate that the air isolation was successful and 2 of the 3 MSIVs shut. Based on ECA-2.1 foldout back to E-2 IF any SG pressure rises at any time, THEN GO TO E-2, Step 1. | |||
With 2 MSIVs shut the crew will observe a pressure rise in the 2 SGs and return to E-2. | |||

Event 8 Automatic Main Steam Isolation does not occur. | |||
Verifiable Actions: The BOP will attempt to perform a manual Main Steam Isolation by actuating the Main Steam Line Isolation switch. The MSIVs will NOT close from this actuation. The BOP will then attempt to close the MSIVs using the individual switches on the MCB. Again, the MSIVs will fail to close. After the crew continues in E-0 they will transition to EOP E-2, Faulted Steam Generator Isolation, they dispatch an AO to locally shut the instrument air supply to RAB 261 (this will isolate air to the MSIVs in an effort to shut them when auto and manual isolation does not work from the MCB).

: 2016 NRC EXAM SCENARIO 2 (continued) | |||
CRITICAL TASK JUSTIFICATION: | |||
: 1. Control AFW flow to minimize RCS cooldown - prior to a severe (ORANGE path) challenge develops to the Integrity Critical Safety Function The crew must reduce and control the AFW flow rate to a maximum of 12.5 KPPH when directed by EOP ECA-2.1 when all SGs are faulted. | |||
Failure to control the AFW flow rate to the SGs leads to an unnecessary and avoidable severe challenge to the integrity CSF. Also, failure to perform the critical task increases the challenges to the subcriticality CSF beyond those irreparably introduced by the plant conditions. | |||
If AFW flow rate is not controlled, the cooldown transient for Reactor vessel inlet temperature will result in an ORANGE path challenge to the integrity CSF, especially after RCPs are tripped. Although the performance standard for this task is tied to the integrity CSF, the challenge to other CSFs is exacerbated by failure to perform the critical task. The other affected CSF would be subcriticality (since the steam break is located outside Containment the Containment CSF would not be challenged). | |||
Failure to control the AFW flow rate, means that the blowdown from all SGs continues at a higher rate than it would if the crew performs the critical task. This continuation of the blowdown at a higher-than-necessary rate significantly worsens the power excursion. It constitutes a challenge to the subcriticality CSF beyond that irreparably introduced by the plant conditions. | |||
: 2. Manually isolate MSIVs on SG A and C prior to a severe (ORANGE path) challenge develops to the Integrity Critical Safety Function NOTE: This critical task will be accomplished by first attempting to manually actuate a Main Steam Line Actuation when the automatic actuation failed then attempting to manually shut the MSIV via MCB switches. The MSIVs will not shut via the switches. | |||
Directions will be provided to an Auxiliary Operator to isolate the Instrument Air to the MSIVs. IF the Aux Operator is dispatched the A and C MSIV will shut and the task will be successful. | |||
Failure to close the MSIVs causes challenges to CSFs such an omission constitutes a failure by the crew to demonstrate (the ability to) recognize a failure of an automatic actuation of an ESF system or component. They should take one or more actions that would prevent a challenge to plant safety. Uncontrolled depressurization of all SGs causes an excessive rate of RCS cooldown, well beyond the conditions typically analyzed in the FSAR. The excessive cooldown rate creates large thermal stresses in the reactor pressure vessel and causes rapid insertion of a large amount of positive reactivity. | |||
Note: An unanticipated critical task may be created in a scenario should an applicants action or lack of action cause an unexpected RPS or ESFAS actuation. A critical task may be assigned and graded as unsatisfactory even if corrected by another team member prior to the unanticipated RPS/ESFAS actuation. Should the applicant self-correct the action or inaction prior to the unanticipated plant response, a critical task failure should not be assigned to the applicant. | |||

: 2016 NRC EXAM SCENARIO 3 Low power scenario - Turnover to crew is the unit startup on hold. The plant is in Mode 2 with Reactor power less than 5%. Power ascension is on hold until secondary chemistry parameters are within limits and 1SI-3 and the B Boric Acid pump are restored to service. At the conclusion of last shift the B Condensate Booster pump oil system leak repairs and PMT were completed and the clearance was removed. The pump is ready to be returned to service. When the crew takes the shift the expectation is to start the B Condensate Booster pump in accordance with OP-134, Condensate System, Section 5.6. After the pump is running they will hold power until secondary chemistry and the clearances are lifted on 1SI-3 and B BA pump. They should prepare to continue with GP-005, Power Operation, to obtain rated power conditions. | |||
The following equipment is under clearance: | |||
* B Normal Service Water Pump is under clearance for shaft inspection. The pump has been under clearance for 8 hours. Inspection and return to service is expected to be completed within 24 hours. (No Tech Specs are associated with this component) | |||
* 1SI-3, Boron Injection Tank Outlet valve has been under clearance the last 12 hours for breaker repairs. The repairs are close to completion and the valve is expected to be returned to service within the next hour. The valve is currently shut with power removed. OWP-SI-01 has been completed.

Upon turnover and assuming the shift the BOP will start the B Condensate Booster pump in accordance with OP-134, Condensate System, Section 5.6 Second Condensate Booster Pump Start up. | |||
( | Event 1 Start B Condensate Booster Pumps for short term 1 hour reliability run. | ||
Verifiable Action: The BOP will zero out the B Condensate Booster Pump M/A station, open the discharge and recirc valve for the pump then start the B Condensate Booster Pump. After the pump is running the BOP will increase B pump speed and place the controller in Automatic. | |||
After the B Condensate Booster pump is in operation the crew will still be on startup hold but should have evaluated and discussed raising power IAW GP-005 to prepare to place the Main Feedwater Regulating valves in service. | |||
Event 2 Trip of AH-39 Containment Fan Coil Unit fan with back up auto start failure. | |||
Verifiable Action: The failure will cause annunciator ALB-029 4-5 Containment Fan Coolers AH-39 Low Flow-O/L to alarm. The crew should identify that the standby fan did not auto start and start the standby fan. The SRO will complete OMM-001 Attachment 5 and request assistance from the WCC center. | |||
Event 3 Letdown Temperature Controller fails - LD/Diversion Valve fails to bypass demineralizers. This failure will cause temperature controller TK-144 output to decrease to zero. Without cooling to the letdown heat exchanger, temperatures observed on TI-143 will increase. At 135°F annunciator ALB-007-3-2, Demin Flow Diversion High Temp will alarm. | |||
Verifiable Action: The OATC will respond in accordance with the alarm procedure for ALB 007-3-2. The OATC should identify that the divert valve to the VCT has failed to respond and report the failure to the SRO. The OATC should manually bypass the CVCS Demineralizers with 1CS-50 (TCV-143), then take manual control of TK-144 to restore letdown temperature to normal Harris 2016 NRC EXAM Scenario 3 Rev. 2 | |||

(Temperature band guidance can be found in OP-107, Chemical Volume And Control). The CVCS Demineralizers should remain bypassed pending an evaluation for continued resin use. The SRO will complete OMM-001 Attachment 5 and request assistance from the WCC center. | |||
Event 4 Component Cooling Water system leak - requiring AOP-014, Loss of Component Cooling Water entry and manual makeup to maintain level. A CCW leak in the running pump suction header will develop. The leak will be within CCW Surge Tank makeup capability. | |||
Verifiable Action: The crew should identify the leak by observation of MCB indications for CCW Surge Tank level or MCB annunciators based on CCW Surge Tank low level. | |||
The OATC will respond to the CCW Surge Tank level change and/or alarm and enter AOP-014, LOSS OF COMPONENT COOLING WATER. The OATC will maintain CCW Surge Tank level in the normal operating range by opening the Demin water make up valve 1DW-15, on the MCB. After dispatching an AO and locally isolating the leak the OATC will then start the standby B CCW pump and secure the running A CCW pump in accordance with OP-145, Component Cooling Water, then isolate the leak. | |||
The SRO will complete OMM-001 Attachment 5 and request assistance from the WCC center. | |||
Tech Spec Evaluation: The SRO should evaluate TS 3.7.3. TS 3.5.2 and TS 3.0.3 (both trains of ECCS INOPERABLE). | |||

Vibrations will continue to increase and exceed AOP-018 Attachment 1 RCP trip criteria of 20 mils shaft. | |||
Verifiable Action: The OATC will perform a manual Reactor trip and secure the A RCP and associated PRZ spray valve after E-0 immediate actions are completed. | |||
The crew will then transition from EOP E-0 to ES-0.1, Reactor Trip Response. The Lead Examiner can allow the crew to stabilize the plant then have the Simulator Operator insert the next event (Small Break LOCA). | |||
Event 7 - Major - Small Break LOCA SBLOCA inside Containment (Loop A) | |||
The crew should recognize a rapid decrease in Pressurizer level and RCS pressure. | |||
If the crew responds quickly to the event they may manually actuate a Safety Injection based on ES-0.1 foldout criteria of not being able to maintain Pressurizer level > 5% or RCS subcooling < 10°F. If they do not respond quickly an Automatic Safety Injection will occur. The crew will then transition from ES-0.1 back to E-0, Reactor Trip or Safety Injection. They will again carry out immediate actions of E-0. | |||
Event 8 Failure of BIT outlet valve 1SI-4 to open requiring alternate high head injection flow path use. 1SI-4 will fail to automatically open with the Safety Injection signal and cannot be manually opened from the MCB switch. Additionally, 1SI-3 was under clearance and cannot be opened from the MCB due to control power being removed from the breaker. | |||
In order to obtain Safety Injection flow the crew will have to use the alternate high head injection flow path as directed by E-0 RNO actions. | |||
Verifiable Action: The OATC will OPEN alternate high head Safety Injection to cold legs valve 1SI-52 SA and then identify Safety Injection flow exceeding 200 gpm. | |||

==SUMMARY== | |||
: 2016 NRC EXAM SCENARIO 3 (continued) | |||
Event 8 (continued) | |||
Establish SI flow prior to securing RCPs when EOP-E-0 foldout requires them to be secured. Shortly after entering E-0, the crew should recognize that the RCS pressure is low enough to meet Foldout Criteria for securing all RCPs but there is no flow indicated on FI-943 (normal SI flow indication). The crew will have to establish SI flow by opening the alternate high head Safety Injection to cold legs valve 1SI-52 SA. | |||
Verifiable Action: After the OATC opens 1SI-52 SA adequate flow (> 200 gpm) will be indicated on FI-940 (alternate SI flow indication). Once flow is verified the low press and SI flow criteria will be met and the OATC will then STOP the B and C RCPs. | |||
Event 9 Failure of automatic Main Steam Line Isolation to occur when Containment pressure exceeds 3 psig. As the Small Break LOCA continues to flow RCS to the Containment the pressure in the Containment will continue to rise. An automatic Main Steam Isolation signal is generated when Containment pressure is > 3.0 psig. The crew will have shut the MSIVs due to the cooldown encountered from securing the A RCP but the MSIV before seat drain valves (1MS-231, 1MS-266, 1MS-301) will remain OPEN. The MCB switch for manual actuation of MSLI will NOT function. | |||
Verifiable Action: The BOP will have to manually shut from the individual MCB switches for each MSIV before seat drain valve. These valves can be verified that they are not in the correct position by review the Safeguards panel on ERFIS (after a MSLI actuation). | |||
Event 7 (continued) | |||
After making transitions from E-0 to E-1 to ES-1.2 the crew will determine that the RCS cool down rate exceeded 100°F/HR and will have to wait prior to reducing RCS temperature further. The scenario ends when the crew has determined that the 100°F/HR cool down rate has been exceed. | |||
Harris 2016 NRC EXAM Scenario 3 Rev. 2 | |||
Appendix D Scenario Outline Form ES-D-1 HARRIS 2016 NRC EXAM SCENARIO 3 CRITICAL TASK JUSTIFICATION: | |||
: 1. Establish Flow from At Least One High-Head SI Pump. Prior to manually tripping ALL RCPs. | |||
Failure of the crew to manually align Safety Injection flow through the alternate high head injection flow path results in a degradation of the capacity of the ECCS systems. The only available makeup water source during this event is the high pressure safety injection from the CSIPs. Until the alternate high head safety injection flow is aligned the safety margin of the plant is significantly reduced and may result in irreparable damage to the reactor core. | |||
The acceptable results obtained in the FSAR analysis of a small-break LOCA are predicated on the assumption of minimum ECCS pumps injection. The analysis assumes that a minimum pumped ECCS flow rate, which varies with RCS pressure, is injected into the core. The flow rate values assumed for minimum pumped injection are based on operation of one each of the following ECCS pumps: Charging/SI pump, high-head SI pump and low-head SI pump. | |||
Operation of this minimum required complement of ECCS injection pumps is consistent with the FSAR assumption that only minimum safeguards is actuated. | |||
: 2. Manually trip all RCPs within 10 minutes of reaching RCP Trip Criteria of > 200 gpm SI Flow with < 1400 psig RCS Pressure Securing RCPs during a SB LOCA event will prevent depleting the RCS to a critical inventory by pumping more mass through the break than would occur if the RCP operation were ceased. (Critical inventory is defined as the amount of inventory remaining in the RCS when the break completely uncovers and the break flow changes from a mixture of liquid and steam to all steam.) The LOCA event in this scenario is a SB LOCA that requires the RCPs to be secured when E-0 foldout conditions are met. IF the crew continues to allow the RCPs to operate due to lack of establishment of SI flow of > 200 gpm then RCS inventory will continue to deplete. Manually tripping the RCPs before depletion below the critical inventory conservatively ensures that Peak Clad Temperature remains below 2200°F. This action should be accomplished within 10 minutes of RCP Trip Criteria of > 200 gpm SI Flow with < 1400 psig RCS Pressure and prior to transitioning out of EOP-E-0. | |||
Note: An unanticipated critical task may be created in a scenario should an applicants action or lack of action cause an unexpected RPS or ESFAS actuation. A critical task may be assigned and graded as unsatisfactory even if corrected by another team member prior to the unanticipated RPS/ESFAS actuation. Should the applicant self-correct the action or inaction prior to the unanticipated plant response, a critical task failure should not be assigned to the applicant. | |||

Given the following plant conditions: | |||
- At time 0704, the plant is operating at 100% power | |||
- 'A' RHR pump is under clearance Time 0706 PZR level has lowered to 56%, Containment pressure and radiation readings are rapidly rising 0707 The OATC attempts to manually trip the Reactor but neither Reactor Trip switch opens the Reactor Trip breakers 0710 Containment pressure is 26 psig and rising 0715 The Turbine Building AO manually opened the 'A' and 'B' MG Set Output Breakers and all rods insert into the Reactor 0728 The CRS transitions to EOP-E-1, Loss of Reactor or Secondary Coolant 0733 RHR Pump 'B' trips on overcurrent 0736 The CRS transitions to EOP-ECA-1.1, Loss of Emergency Coolant Recirculation 0744 The CRS is at step 19.c, determine minimum SI flow from Attachment 1 to establish the minimum SI flow needed. | |||

(Reference Provided) | |||
A. (1) 400 gpm (2) to ensure the existence of an adequate Reactor Vessel inventory such that core cooling is ensured B. (1) 400 gpm (2) to match decay heat in order to further decrease SI pump flow and delay RWST depletion. | |||
C. (1) 425 gpm (2) to ensure the existence of an adequate Reactor Vessel inventory such that core cooling is ensured. | |||

Thursday, May 19, 2016 5:04:41 PM 203 | |||
QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: At 0707 a valid Reactor Trip signal was generated but the Reactor Trip did not occur until 0715. The time that the CRS should use for "Time After Reactor Trip" is 29 minutes (0744 to 0715) and NOT the time that a Reactor Trip signal was generated but was ineffective in opening the Reactor Trip breakers. Using EOP ECA-1.1 Attachment 1 the time after a Reactor Trip of 29 minutes falles between the 25 to 30 minute area which will require a minimum SI flow of 425 gallons. IF the CRS used time from Reactor Trip signal (0707) a lower flow rate of 400 gallons would be used and would NOT satisfy the minimum SI flow rate required needed to remove decay heat. | |||
The WOG description for EOP ECA-1.1 when determining the minium SI flow states that the reason for calculating this minimum SI flow is to match decay heat in order to further decrease SI pump flow and delay RWST depletion. | |||
A. Incorrect. The first part is plausible if the candiate uses the time that a Reactor Trip signal was generated which would yeild a time of 37 minutes after a Reactor Trip and a minimum SI flow from Attachment 1 of 400 gpm. The second part is plausible since this is backgound document information for a Large Break LOCA but this reason is for RVLIS SI termination criteria. | |||
B. Incorrect. The first part is plausible see A(1). The second part is correct. | |||
C. Incorrect. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible see A(2). | |||

QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: To comply with Technical Specification 3.9.8.1 LCO the 'A' RHR Pump must be started. The requirement that at least one residual heat removal (RHR) loop be in operation ensures that: (1) sufficient cooling capacity is available to remove decay heat and maintain the water in the Reactor vessel below 140°F as required during the REFUELING MODE. and (2) sufficient coolant circulation is maintained through the core to minimize the effect of a boron dilution incident and prevent boron stratification. | |||
A. Correct. | |||
B. Incorrect. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible because 200°F is the transition to Mode 4 where additional concerns arise. | |||
C. Incorrect. The first part is plausible if the candidate misapplies the LCO mode of applicability and determines the actions for Mode 5 or lower cavity level were applicable which would require two RHR pump to be operable and one in operation. The second part is correct. | |||

- The unit is operating at 95% power beginning of life | |||
- RCS boron concentration is 1391 ppm | |||
- Tavg is 585.5°F | |||
- 'A' RHR Pump is being run for quarterly surveillance test on recirc to the RWST Subsequently: | |||
- Tavg is 586.1°F | |||
- An automatic diversion of the VCT to the RHT is in progress | |||
- CCW Surge Tank level is 15% and lowering | |||
- 1DW-15, CCW Makeup, is open in accordance with AOP-014, Loss of Component Cooling Water Which ONE of the following identifies (1) the location of the leak AND (2) the procedure direction(s) required to for this event? | |||
A. (1) 'A' RHR Heat Exchanger (2) Check RAB/Containment Sumps for rising level B. (1) 'A' RHR Heat Exchanger (2) Direct Chemistry to sample the 'A' RHR Heat Exchanger for corrosion inhibitors C. (1) Seal Water Return Heat Exchanger (2) Locally isolate the CCW side of the Seal Water Return Heat Exchanger D. (1) Seal Water Return Heat Exchanger (2) Locally bypass and isolate the Seal Water side of the Seal Water Return Heat Exchanger Thursday, May 19, 2016 5:04:41 PM 209 | |||
QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: With a CCW System leak in progress the candidate must evaluate the response of the RCS Temperature combined with the rise in VCT level to determine that a dilution event has occurred. Once the determination that a dilution event has occurred the candidate must compare the heat exchanger operating characteristics and determine that a leak in the seal water return heat exchanger will result in the transfer of non-borated CCW water into the borated seal water system. | |||
Finally the candidate must recall the mitigating action directed by AOP-014 to determine the proper sequence of actions required to isolated the non-borated water source. | |||
A. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since the 'A' RHR system is in service for surveillance testing; however this is incorrect because the 'A' RHR system is aligned to the RWST vice the RCS which is physically isolated by check valves when the unit is on-line. The second part is plausible since these would be correct actions if the RHR system pressure is less than the CCW system pressure; however this is incorrect because the RHR to CCW system pump pressure differential would result in leakage into the CCW system causing CCW surge tank level to rise. | |||
B. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since the 'A' RHR system is in service for surveillance testing; however this is incorrect because the 'A' RHR system is aligned to the RWST vice the RCS which is physically isolated by check valves when the unit is on-line. The second part is plausible see A2. | |||
C. Incorrect. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible since the candidate has determined the source of the leak from the CCW system is the seal water return HX and isolating the CCW side of the HX will isolate the leak and stop the inadvertent dilution; however this is incorrect because the seal return is required to be bypassed firsted to ensure a flowpath is maintiained while seal return is in service. | |||

Given the following conditions: | |||
- The unit is operating at 100% power | |||
- 'A' Reactor Water Makeup Pump is in operation Subsequently a loss of Offsite Power occurs | |||
- RCS cooldown to < 200°F will be required Which ONE of the following completes the statements below concerning the operation of the Reactor Water Makeup Pumps? | |||
The 'A' RW Makeup Pump (1) . | |||
To prevent an inadvertant RCS dilution event the standby Reactor Makeup Water Pump breaker must be opened and placed under clearance in accordance with (2) prior to reducing RCS temperature below 200°F. | |||
A. (1) re-starts automatically during sequencer operation (2) EOP-ES-0.2, Natural Circulation Cooldown B.

(1) must be manually re-started (2) GP-007, Normal Plant Cooldown Mode 3 to Mode 5 Thursday, May 19, 2016 5:04:41 PM 212 | |||
QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: The Reactor Makeup Water (RMWU) Pumps are powered by 1A24 and 1B24 which is energized from safety busses. The 480V loads from the emergency bus is manually energized after the sequencer completes running. The RWMU pumps will operate the same as they did prior to the LOOP once power is restored to their 480V bus. | |||
EOP-ES-02, Step 25 requires that only one RMWU Pump is operable and the standby pump breaker is opened and placed under clearance for inadvertent dilution prevention. | |||
A. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since the VCT is the normal suction source of a Charging pump that is sequenced on in load block 1 for all 3 sequencer programs. During a loss of power to a safety bus the sequencer runs in program "A". There isn't a Safety Injection during Program "A" and the normal suction source to the Charging pumps is the VCT. VCT makeup is provided by the RMWU pump and BA pump. It is plausible to have both the BA pump and RMWU pumps sequenced on to provide makeup to the VCT. But neither pump has power until after a manual 480V breaker for emergency loads is closed. The second part is correct. | |||
B. Incorrect. The first part is plausible see A(1). The second part is plausible since the RCPs do not have power and a Natural Circ Cooldown would be in progress to reduce RCS temperature to < 200°F and GP-007 provides guidance to place the RMWU pumps under clearance during a normal shutdown. However in accordance with EOP ES-0.2 step 25 the procedure will place the RMWU pumps under clearance to prevent an inadvertant dilution event and refer to GP-007 for additional action. | |||
C. Correct. | |||
D. Incorrect. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible see B(2). | |||

QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: In accordance with AOP-017, the Operator is required to maintain levels greater than 30% and Main Feedwater flow to ALL Steam Generators. | |||
FW regulating valves receive a shut signal when instrument air pressure fails to 60 psig. At 1040 the instrument air header pressure of 58 psig therefore the operator is no longer able to maintain Main Feedwater flow to all SG's. Without MFW to the S/G's AOP-017 directs the operator to insert a manual Reactor trip and perform EOP-E-0 while continuing with AOP-017. The operator is required to evaluate the event and determine that a loss of instrument air does not result in an actuation of the Safety Injection system. EOP-ES-0.1, Reactor Trip Response is the appropriate EOP to transition into after entering EOP-E-0 while continuing with AOP-017. | |||
A. Incorrect. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible since without an actuation of the Safety Injection system the correct procedure to implement is EOP-ES-0.1; however this in not correct since EOP-ES-0.1 alone does not address the loss of instrument air system and AOP-017 directs the CRS to continue with the implementation of the AOP while entering the EOP network in response to the Reactor Trip. Additionally the EOP-User's Guide allow the implementation of AOP's that enhance plant control. | |||
B. Correct. | |||
C. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since the Reactor is required to be tripped once SG levels cannot be maintained above 30%; however this is incorrect since it is not the FIRST time that a Reactor trip is required. The second part is plausible since without an actuation of the Safety Injection system the correct procedure to implement is EOP-ES-0.1; however this in not correct since EOP-ES-0.1 alone does not address the loss of instrument air system and AOP-017 directs the CRS to continue with the implementation of the AOP while entering the EOP network in response to the Reactor Trip.

Given the following plant conditions: | |||
- A Reactor Trip and Safety Injection has occured | |||
- EOP-E-0, Reactor Trip Or Safety Injection, is being implemented and SI has been reset The current conditions are as follows: | |||
- RCS Pressure is 1500 psig | |||
- PRZ level is off scale low | |||
- Subcooling is 3°F | |||
- Containment pressure 0.2 psig | |||
- RM-1RR-3597, RHR Pump 1B, is in HIGH alarm | |||
- MLB-4A-SA-6-3 and MLB-4B-SB-6-3, RAB Equip C/D Sump Alert Lvl, status lights are lit | |||
- SG levels are: A = 23%, B = 24%, C = 15% | |||
- Total AFW flow has been reduced to 215 KPPH Which ONE of the following procedures will be implemented when exiting EOP-E-0? | |||
A. EOP-ES-1.1, SI Termination B. EOP-ECA-1.2, LOCA Outside Containment C. EOP-FR-H.1, Response to Loss of Secondary Heat Sink D. EOP-ES-1.2, Post LOCA Cooldown and Depressurization Thursday, May 19, 2016 5:04:41 PM 218 | |||
QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: The transition to ECA-1.2 is correct. The Radiation Monitor in alarm and sump level alert lights indicate that the leak is in the B RHR Pump Room. | |||
LOCA outside containment. Transition to ECA-1.2 would occur at step 60 of E-0. | |||
A. Incorrect. Plausible if the candidate misundertands SI termination criteria and determines that positive subcooling satisfies the criteria (+ 3°F and improving), however this is incorrect because PZR level must also be above 10% and the current indication is offscale low which does not meet the requirement for SI termination. | |||
B. Correct. | |||
C. Incorrect. Plausible since S/G levels are all less than 25%, which meet FR-H.1 entry conditions (Containment conditions normal), however this is not correct because total feed flow must also be less than 210 KPPH. | |||
D. Incorrect. Plausible since this is the procedure that would be implemented for the question conditions if Auxiliary Building radiation levels were normal, however this is not correct because the RHR B pump room rad monitor is in High alarm and both channels of the RAB equipment drain sump are in Alert Alarm indicating that the sump level is rising. | |||

(2) Prevent water relief of liquid coolant through the PRZ safety valves. | |||
Thursday, May 19, 2016 5:04:42 PM 221 | |||
QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: Technical Specification 3.3.1 Functional Unit 11, Pressurizer Water Level - High (Above P-7) requires action 6 to be completed for an inoperable channel. During a unit startup in accordance with GP-005, Power Operation (Mode 2 to Mode 1), step 121, at 15% turbine load Rod Control is transferred from Manual to Automatic. Therefore if the OATC is placing Rod Control in Automatic the Reactor must be > 10% power (P-10 initiates P-7). The High PRZ water level trip setpoint provides sufficient margin such that the undesirable condition of discharging liquid coolant through the safety valves is avoided. | |||
A. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since this would be correct if P-7 was not present but since turbine power must be > 15% to place Rod Control in Automatic P-13 (Turbine > 10% power) has been exceeded. With either P-10 (Reactor power > 10%) or P-13 met P-7 which would be enabled which would re-instate the 92% PRZ High level Reactor trip. The second part is plausible since a PZR high level does result in the potential for damage to the piping downstream of the PZR PORV's and Safeties; however this is incorrect because this is the basis for the RPS P-14, High-High SG Level turbine trip. | |||

D. Dispatch an operator to open the breakers for A and B PRZ heater groups and restore pressure in accordance with AOP-019. | |||
Thursday, May 19, 2016 5:04:42 PM 224 | |||
QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: While control of the PRZ pressure control functions are transferred to the ACP in accordance with AOP-004 only the A and B bank of heaters are automatically controlled from the ACP. The first action required in accordance with AOP-004 is to remove control power fuses and trip PRZ heaters C and D locally in the associated switchgear room. By removing the fuses for the heaters the rise in PRZ pressure will be terminated. | |||
A. Incorrect. Plausible since RCS pressure is rising and the PRZ PORVs provide a relief path to lower pressure in the event that pressure rises to 2335 psig; however this is incorrect since the RCS pressure is 2255 psig the action to relieve pressure via the PRZ PORVs is not required . | |||
B. Inorrect. Plausible since other procedures could be referenced while controlling the plant from the ACP. ACP controls of the PRZ heaters have been established and implementing procedure AOP-004 followup actions provide the necessary information to safely shut down the plant. | |||
However, AOP-019 is the procedure normally entered to mitigate PRZ pressure control malfunctions and the action described is directed by AOP-019. | |||

The FIRST time that Technical Specification 3.4.8, Reactor Coolant System: Specific Activity, action statement is required to be entered is at (1) . | |||
The basis of Technical Specification LCO 3.4.8 action to reduce RCS Tavg below 500°F is to (2) . | |||
A. (1) 0930 (2) ensure that the 1-hour dose at the SITE BOUNDARY will not exceed a small fraction of the 10 CFR Part 100 dose guideline limits in the event of a SGTR B. (1) 0930 (2) prevent a release of activity should a SGTR occur by preventing the SG atmospheric reliefs from automatically lifting C. (1) 1000 (2) ensure that the 1-hour dose at the SITE BOUNDARY will not exceed a small fraction of the 10 CFR Part 100 dose guideline limits in the event of a SGTR D. (1) 1000 (2) prevent a release of activity should a SGTR occur by preventing the SG atmospheric reliefs from automatically lifting Thursday, May 19, 2016 5:04:42 PM 227 | |||
QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: TS 3.4.8 requires verification of DOSE EQUIVALENT I-131 specific activity less than or equal to 1.0 uCi/gm. As stated in the stem, at some time between 0915 and 0930, Dose Equivalent I-131 exceeded the 1.0 uCi/gm limit. | |||
Therefore, 0930 is the first time at which LCO 3.4.8 is NOT met. | |||
The Tech Spec basis for second part of the question states: Reducing Tavg to less than 500°F prevents the release of activity should a steam generator tube rupture occur, since the saturation pressure of the Reactor Coolant is below the lift pressure of the atmospheric steam relief valves. | |||
A. Incorrect. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible since this is the Technical Specification basis for RCS specific activity but this is for 2 hour dose not a 1 hour dose and does not take into account the 500° RCS temperature. TS 3.4.8 Specific Activity Bases: The limitations on the specific activity of the Reactor Coolant ensure that the resulting 2-hour doses at the SITE BOUNDARY will not exceed an appropriately small fraction of 10 CFR Part 100 dose guideline values following a steam generator tube rupture accident in conjunction with anassumed steady-state reactor-to-secondary steam generator leakage rate of 1 gpm. | |||
B. Correct. | |||
C. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since the plant has experienced a transient and per Tech Spec 3.4.7 "RCS Chemistry" transient limits for Chloride and Floride are < 1.50 (ppm). Therefore, it is reasonable for a candidate to have a misconception about these limits through confusion. This misconception would result in the first time that RCS Dose Equivalent I-131 being out of spec was at 1000. | |||
The second part is plausible see A(2). | |||
D. Incorrect. The first part is plausible see C(1). The second part is correct. | |||

Given the following plant conditions: | |||
- Natural circulation cooldown and depressurization is in progress in accordance with EOP-ES-0.2, Natural Circulation Cooldown The following conditions exist: | |||
- An estimated leak rate from 'A' RCP #1 seal is 20 gpm and rising slowly | |||
- RCS Pressure is 825 psig and lowering | |||
- Thot is 495°F and lowering | |||
- PRZ level is 25% and lowering slowly | |||
- RVLIS Train A Upper Range level is 92% and lowering | |||
- RVLIS Train B Upper Range level Input Quality Code and Error Status is D0(BAD) | |||
The Plant Staff determines that cooldown and depressurization must CONTINUE. | |||
Which ONE of the following action(s) is correct? | |||
A. Transition to EOP-ES-0.4, Natural Circulation Cooldown With Steam Void in Vessel Without RVLIS. | |||
B. Transition to EOP-ES-0.3, Natural Circulation Cooldown With Steam Void in Vessel With RVLIS. | |||
C. Raise RCS subcooling to collapse voids and remain in EOP-ES-0.2, Natural Circulation Cooldown. | |||
D. Actuate SI and go to EOP-E-0, Reactor Trip or Safety Injection. | |||
Thursday, May 19, 2016 5:04:42 PM 230 | |||
QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: During natural circulation cooldown and depressurization with RVLIS available, the criteria for transition to ES-0.3 is met when unable to maintain RVLIS >94% and RCS depressurization must continue. In this instance RVLIS level is 92% and lowering and Plant staff has communicated that depressurization must continue. Transition to ES-0.3 is correct. | |||
A. Incorrect. Plausible because would be the required transition if the RVLIS were not available, however with RVLIS Train 'A' available, ES-0.4 is not the correct procedure. | |||
B. Correct. | |||
C. Incorrect. Plausible because maintaining subcooling is directed in the depressurization steps, but to increase subcooling, pressurizing the RCS would be required, and Plant staff has communicated that depressurization must continue. | |||
D. Incorrect: Plausible because PRZ level lowering, but SI Actuation Criteria is not currently met. Conditions (20 gpm leakage) currently do not warrant Safety Injection, and continuing to depressurize the RCS will lessen this leakage. | |||

- EOP-E-1, Loss of Reactor Or Secondary Coolant, is in progress Subsequently the following occurs: | |||
- A fire is reported from MCC 1B31-SB | |||
- The crew is evaluating if cold leg recirculation capability exists Which ONE of the following completes the statement below? | |||

QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: The main control board indicates the A' RHR pump has control power available by the green light for the pump, but the system valves which are powered by 480V MCC's do not have control power indicating that the 'A' EDG has not energized the 1A-SA Safety bus. Additionally MLB 2A-SA indicates the 'A' CSIP is not running confirming the 1A-SA Safety bus is not energized. Attachment 2 of EOP-E-1 provides the components and the condition of those components required to establish cold leg recirculation. The 'A' train has multiple components that do not meet the required conditions due to the loss of the 1A-SA Safety bus. After reviewing the Monitor light boxes, MLB 3B-SB indicates that 1SI-341, Low Head SI train B to cold leg valve is in the shut position by the status light being illuminated. This valve is normally open with control power removed, but the potential of a hot short due to the fire in 1B31-SB can reposition this valve. 1SI-323 which is powered from 1B31 does not have power as indicated by the lack of red or green valve indication on its control switch. | |||
With 1SI-341 in the shut position and no power available to 1SI-323 the 'B' train is not capable of being placed in cold leg recirculation. With both trains of RHR not capable of cold leg recirculation the procedure directs the candidate to go to EOP-ECA-1.1, Loss Of Emergency Coolant Recirculation". | |||
A. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since the 'A' RHR Pump and 1RH-1 have indication on the MCB; however this is incorrect because the MCB indication for the 'A' RHR Pump is an indication of the status of the breakers DC control power and 1RH-1 does have power but it is powered from the 1B-SB Safety bus. The second part is plausible since the 'B' RHR pump is running and has indication of flow; however this is incorrect because 1SI-341 is not in the correct position. Additionally the RWST level is 38% which does not meet the transition criteria of RWST level less than 23.4% | |||

QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal 2016 NRC SRO 012/NEW/C/A//TS 3.4.9.4/TS 3.4.9.4/EARLY/005A2.02/ENHANCE Given the following plant conditions: | |||
- A plant heat up is in progress on July 19th | |||
- RCS temperature is 175°F and rising slowly | |||
- The RCS is in a solid plant condition with both RHR Trains in service Subsequently the following occurs: | |||
- At 0830, 1RH-30, RHR HX Outlet Isolation Valve fails closed | |||
- ALB-010-5-1, RC Overpress, alarms | |||
- The first PORV to operate, LTOPS PORV 445A, cycles open at 480 psig and shuts | |||
- LTOPS PORV 445B remains shut during this event Which ONE of the following identifies (1) the operability status of the LTOPS PORV's AND (2) the required Technical Specification action(s), IF any, for the LTOPS? | |||

A. (1) ONE inoperable PORV (2) Plant heat up to draw a bubble may continue. | |||
B. (1) ONE inoperable PORV (2) Prepare and submit a special report to the Commision by August 20th. | |||

Thursday, May 19, 2016 5:04:42 PM 236 | |||
QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: PLP-106 provides a set value of +/- 65 psig as the tolerance for the LTOPS PORV actuation setpoint. RCS pressure actuation setpoint is 465 psig and 475 psig respectively for the Low and High PORV. Based on LTOPS PORV 445A actuating at 480 psig the valve is inoperable. Because this PORV is the first to operate the candidate should determine that LTOPS PORV 445B did not operate as designed also and both LTOPS PORVs are inoperable. This condition requires the implentation of TS 3.4.9.4 action statement c. With both PORVs inoperable, depressurize and vent the RCS through at least a 2.9 square inch vent within 8 hours. | |||
A. Incorrect. The first part is plausible in the event the candidate misinterpets the Figure 3-4.4 curve and determines the PORV operated within the PLP-106 maximum tolerance of 80 psig for the Reactor Vessel P-T limits which would be 480 psig; however this is incorrect since the PORV actuation occurs at 480 this is higher than the allowed tolerance of 465 psig. The second part is plausible since the candidate determines the PORV remains operable the evolution the was in progress may continue; however this is incorrect since the PORV actuation occurs outside of the calculated tolerance therefore the PORV is inoperable and will not allow the plant heat to continue. | |||
B. Incorrect. The first part is plausible see A1. The second part is plausible in the event the candidate misapplies the action d due to the operation of the PORV to reduce RCS pressure; however this is incorrect since the assumption is the PORV remains operable therefore the requirements of action d. do not apply. | |||
C. Incorrect. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible since this action is correct if only one PORV is determine to inoperable, the candidate misinterpets the Figure 3-4.4 curve and determines the PORV operated within the PLP-106 maximum tolerance of 80 psig for the Reactor Vessel P-T limits which would be 490 psig for the high PORV; however this is incorrect since actuation pressure of the first PORV to operate is above the maximum actuation setpoint pressure for both the low and high pressure LTOPS PORV both PORVs are inoperable. | |||
D. Correct. | |||

Given the following plant conditions: | |||
- The unit is operating at 100% power | |||
- 'A' Train equipment is in service | |||
- CCW indications on the MCB are as follows: | |||
(See Reference Photo 1) | |||
Subsequently on July 18, 2016 at 1100, multiple CCW low flow and both 'A' and 'B' low pressure annunciators alarmed on ALB-005. | |||
- BOTH 'A' and 'B' CCW pumps have red running lights illuminated | |||
- CCW indications are now as follows: | |||
(See Reference Photo 2) | |||
Which ONE of the following completes the statement below? | |||
Based on the conditions above AND the indications provided in the reference, the 'A' CCW pump has a (1) . If the CCW system is not restored, in accordance with Technical Specification 3.7.3, Plant Systems: Component Cooling Water System the unit must in at least HOT STANDBY no later than (2) . | |||
A. (1) shaft shear (2) 1100 on July 21, 2016 B. (1) shaft shear (2) 1700 on July 21, 2016 C. (1) leak upstream of flow transmitter FI-652.1 CCW HTX A Outlet Flow (2) 1100 on July 21, 2016 D. (1) leak upstream of flow transmitter FI-652.1 CCW HTX A Outlet Flow (2) 1700 on July 21, 2016 Thursday, May 19, 2016 5:04:42 PM 239 | |||
QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: For the first part: Indications for the 'A' CCW pump shaft shear are a lack of outlet flow indication on FI-652.1 (reads 0 GPM), the red running light is still illuminated indicating that the pump is not tripped or just the green light would be on. Low flow and pressure annunciators alarming indicate that the 'A' CCW pump has at one time not provided adequate discharge flow to maintain conditions above the alarm setpoints. At 52 psig and decreasing the 'B' CCW pump which was in standby would have automatically started. The indication that this occurred was that the red running light is illuminated on the 'B' CCW pump and the flow indications on 'B' pump (FI-653.1) initially were at zero and are now at approximately 10,500 GPM. | |||
There are no changes in other pressures, temperatures or flows that would indicate that a leak in the CCW system has occurred. | |||
The second part: Tech Spec 3.7.3 LCO for only ONE CCW flow path being OPERABLE now applies. The CCW flow path needs to be restored within 72 hours or the plant needs to be placed in HSB within the next 6 and CSD within the following 30 hours. July 18 at 1100 + 72 hours + 6 hours to HSB would be July 21 at 1700. | |||
A. Incorrect. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible if ONLY 72 hours is used to place the plant in HSB. | |||
B. Correct. | |||
C. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since a leak could cause low pressure in the CCW system which could also reduce system pressure to below the autostart pressure (52 psig) of the standby pump. Multiple low flow and pressure alarms could also occur with a CCW leak. This leak can be elimated by the absense of reduced pressures and flows from reference photo 1 compared to reference photo 2. The second part is plausible (see A.2) | |||
D. Incorrect. The first is plausible (see C.1). The second part is correct. | |||

- PRZ Heater Group A is de-energized due to overcurrent | |||
- PRZ Pressure indicates 2215 psig and lowering slowly | |||
- PRZ Level is 27% and rising Which ONE of the following completes the statements below? | |||

(1) subsequent closure of the breaker may render the Diesel Generator inoperable (2) NOT required Thursday, May 19, 2016 5:04:42 PM 242 | |||
QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: The PRZ Heater group breakers do not have anti pump logic to mechanically prevent the breaker from reclosing in the event that it trips open due to overcurrent. APP-ALB-009 directs the breaker to be racked out until that cause of the overcurrent conditions is investigated. Technical Specification 3.4.3 action a requires at least two groups of pressurizer heaters be restored to operable status within 72 hours with only one group of heaters operable. | |||
A. Correct. | |||
B. Incorrect. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible since the LCO only requires 2 heater groups with a capacity of 125 KW and the capacity heater groups A, B C and D all meet this minimum 125 KW requirement. | |||
However this is incorrect because in accordance with OWP-RC-08 and MST-E0023 group A and Group B heaters are required to exhibit output of 125 KW or greater to successfully comply with the T.S. 3.4.3 surveillance requirement. | |||
C. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since components that are powered from the diesel backed safety bus may not properly load shed the EDG may be inoperable. This caution and limitation is found in multiple operations procedures as a reminder to evaluate the EDG operability for potential impacts to sequencing and load shedding requirements. However this is incorrect because the PRZ Heater Group A is powered from the emergency bus which is stripped from the safety bus during sequencer operations and only the 1A1 supply breaker is required to be stripped for EDG operability. The second part is correct. | |||
D. Incorrect. The first is plausible see C(1). The second part is plausible see B(2) | |||

Given the following plant conditions: | |||
- A LOCA occurred 45 minutes ago | |||
- The crew is performing actions in accordance with EOP-ES-1.3, Transfer to Cold Leg Recirculation | |||
- The OATC is in the process of performing the valve alignment During the valve alignment the following alarms are received: | |||

QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: Reason the first part of question is correct: Once EOP ES-1.3 is entered a caution prior to step 1 states that steps 1 through 9 should be performed without delay. Even though there is indications of a degraded sump on the | |||
'A' train of equipment, the contingency EOP-ECA-1.1 should not be transistioned to at this time because cold leg recirculation capibility is still available using the 'B' train equipment. EOP-ES-1.3 should be carried out until reaching step 10 where initation of monitoring of CSF Status Trees are started. The second part of question is correct in accordance with the APP for ALB-001-2-2 when the discharge pressure for the spray pump is low due to no suction source (degraded sump prevents suction to the pump) the pump should be secured. | |||
A. Correct. | |||
B. Incorrect. The first part is correct. In the second part of the question the stem information is that the RHR pumps are experiencing cavitaion. It is plausible that increasing the CSIP discharge which raises RCS level will give the RHR pumps a greater NPSH. The increased NPSH should stop the RHR pump cavitation problem making this answer plausible. | |||
C. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since there are indications that the suction sources to the Containment Spray and RHR pumps are inadequate but during the alignment for Cold Leg Recirculation the procedure is implemented without transitioning to another procedure until after the alignment is completed (step 10). The second part is correct. | |||

Given the following plant conditions: | |||
- A load reduction was initiated in accordance with GP-006, Normal Plant Shutdown From Power Operation To Hot Standby (Mode 1 To Mode 3) | |||
The following indications are observed: | |||

Thursday, May 19, 2016 5:04:42 PM 248 | |||
QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: The Rod Insertion technical specification 3.1.3.6 limit is a linear curve that increases the limit 1.86 steps for each percent power. With the reactor at 70% power the rod insertion limits for control bank C and D are 225 and 130 steps repectively. The control rods indicate they are at 228 on control bank C and 125 steps on control bank D therefore control bank D is clearly below the technical specification 3.1.3.6 limits at time 0630 as indicated. At that time the candidate must apply action statement a or b within 2 hours to either restore rods to above the insertion limits for action a or reduce thermal power below the required fraction of rated thermal power for the rod height at that time for action b. | |||
A. Correct. | |||
B. Incorrect. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible since the normal progression of LCO action statements is to perform the first action, i.e. | |||
action a, then if not completed perform the second action, i.e. action b, within the following time frame after the elapse of the first action; however this is incorrect since the LCO allows the candidate to perform either action statement to restore compliance with the LCO within the 2 hour timeframe therefore the cumulative time of 4 hours is improperly applying the technical specification 3.1.3.6 LCO. | |||
C. Incorrect. The first part is plauible since it is correct at that current time; however this is incorrect since it is not the earliest time. The second part is plausible since it is the correct action based on the current time; however this is incorrect since it is not the earliest time. | |||
D. Incorrect. The first part is plauible since it is correct at that current time; however this is incorrect since it is not the earliest time. The second part is plausible since the normal progression of LCO action statements is to perform the first action, i.e. action a, then if not completed perform the second action, i.e. action b, within the following time frame after the elapse of the first action; however this is incorrect since the LCO allows the candidate to perform either action statement to restore compliance with the LCO within the 2 hour timeframe therefore the cumulative time of 4 hours is improperly applying the technical specification 3.1.3.6 LCO. | |||

Thursday, May 19, 2016 5:04:42 PM 251 | |||
QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: Per the asterisk in the LCO statement and it's associated note: WIth N-31 unaffected and selected for audible count rate, substitution of an operating Wide Range Neutron Flux Monitor is allowed, the LCO is met, and no action is required. Therefore refueling operations may continue. | |||
A. Correct. | |||
B. Incorrect. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible since the neutron monitoring system is does provide audible indication of neutron flux level in both containment and the MCR; however this is incorrect since the Wide Range Flux monitors are indication only and not selectable for audible indication. | |||
C. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since these are the required actions in the event that both required monitors are inoperable or not working; however this is not correct since NI-31 remains available the only action required is to suspend core alterations until Wide Range Flux monitor NI-61 is verified operable.

QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: In accordance with the Westinghouse Owners Group (WOG) | |||
Background document for step descriptions of the Steam Generator Tube Rupture procedure (E-3) the setpoint for the ruptured SG PORV controller should be adjusted so the setpoint is greater than no load value (85% at HNP this would be 1106 psig) in order to minimize atmospheric releases from the rupture steam generator and less than the minimum safety valve setpoint to prevent lifting of the code safety valves, which at HNP there are 5 safety valves with lift settings of 1170, 1185, 1200, 1215, and 1230 psig. The 25 psig margin is a typical value to allow for opening of the PORV prior to lifting of the safety valve. | |||
A. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since this is the SG PORV controller setpoint that the CRS would direct the RO set the PORV during plant startup operations (GP-005 Section 5.0 step 5.e). This higher setting is to accommodate plant startup by placing an artifical load on the Reactor without causing the PORVs to open. The second part of the answer is correct. | |||
B. Incorrect The first part is plausible since this is the SG PORV controller setpoint that the CRS would direct the RO set the PORV during plant startup operations (GP-005, Power Operation, Section 5.0 step 5.e). This higher setting is to accommodate plant startup by placing an artifical load on the Reactor without causing the PORVs to open. The second part is plausible since changing the controller setpoint to a higher value will increase the SG pressure and minimize the delta P between the RCS to SG. | |||
C. Correct. | |||
D. Incorrect. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible since changing the controller setpoint to a higher value will increase the SG pressure and minimize the delta P between the RCS to SG. | |||

The order of tagging application should be arranged as follows: | |||
General cautions, notes or other associated clearance, Control switches, Power supplies - e.g., breakers, disconnects, fuses, Lifted leads. Mechanical isolation points (i.e., discharge and suction valves), Support systems (cooling water, air supplies, etc.), | |||
Drains and Vents. If system has greater than 500 psid across boundary valves or fluids above 200°F (93°C), then double valve isolation shall be provided when available. | |||
If double valve isolation is not provided, then designate the clearance as an Exceptional Clearance. In accordance with Attachment 6 clearance hang preparation checklist the details of an exceptional clearance are required to documented in the clearance details and if not complete the clearance should be locked out until exceptional clearance approvals are complete. | |||
A. Incorrect. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible since the VCT temperature is less than 200°F and double valve isolation is not required below 200°F which would allow this clearance to be hung as written; however this is incorrect because the CSIP discharge pressure is greater than 500 psig which requires double isolation or the clearance to be identified as an Exceptional clearance. | |||
B. Correct. | |||
C. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since double valve isolation is not used for this clearance; however this is not correct because double valve isolation is not required since it is not available without shutting down the entire CVCS system. The second part is plausible see A(2). | |||
D. Incorrect. The first part is plausible see C(1). The second part is correct. | |||

QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: With the condition of an inadvertent SI, SI Termination Criteria will be met prior to exiting E-0 so SI flow will be terminated in E-0. The RNO for 1SI-3 directs the operator to locally shut or isolate the BIT Outlet valves but the User's Guide states preferentially to shut either 1SI-3 or 1SI-4 (the BIT Outlet Valves). | |||
A. Incorrect. ES-1.1 is for SI Termination and will be entered for this event. However, with the condition of an inadvertent SI, SI Termination Criteria will be met in E-0 so SI flow will be terminated in E-0. The RNO for 1SI-3 directs locally shut or isolate the BIT Outlet valves. | |||
B. Incorrect. ES-1.1 is for SI Termination and will be entered for this event. However, with the condition of an inadvertent SI, SI Termination Criteria will be met in E-0 so SI flow will be terminated in E-0. The RNO for 1SI-3 directs locally shut or isolate the BIT Outlet valves, so shutting the Inlet valves is incorrect. But it is plausible because the EOP Users Guide discusses closing the Inlet valves if the Outlet valves cannot be shut. | |||
C. Correct. | |||
D. Incorrect. With the condition of an inadvertent SI, SI Termination Criteria will be met in E-0 so SI flow will be terminated in E-0. The RNO for 1SI-3 directs locally shut or isolate the BIT Outlet valves, so shutting the Inlet valves is incorrect.

OP-173, Section 8.2.2 Note prior to Step 9 Performance Step: 1 NOTE: Opening the EMERGENCY FILTRATION OUTSIDE AIR INLET in a timely manner will minimize habitability concerns for the number of people in the MCR when it is isolated. (Reference 2.6.4)
NOTE: The decision of which Control Room Emergency Outside Air Intakes should be used to supply air to the system is based on the event in progress which has made recirculation necessary.
- In an emergency situation such as toxic gas, wind direction may be of primary consideration.
- In the event of high radiation, The RM-23 for the following radiation monitors should be used to determine which Outside Air intake has the lowest radiation reading:
o SOUTH INTAKE NORTH INTAKE o RC-1CZ-3505A1-SA RC-1CZ-3505A2-SA o RC-1CZ-3505B1-SB RC-1CZ-3505B2-SB
- If the system is being placed into recirculation for maintenance reasons, either intake may be used.
NOTE: If, during the performance of this Section, MMT1011 decreases by 20°F or more, or MMT1002 increases by 0.5 in Hg or more, the correction factor in the following step would have to be re-determined. An increase in MMT1011, or a decrease in MMT1002 results in a more conservative calculation, so would not require re-determining the correction factor.
NOTE EMERGENCY FILTRATION OUTSIDE AIR INLETS can be manually opened on loss of power.
NOTE The intent of the following Step is to obtain a flow high enough to ensure MCR DP is greater than 0.125 inwg to ALL adjacent areas. However, it may not be necessary to obtain maximum flow conditions to obtain required DP.
Care should be taken to avoid excessive DP across MCR boundary doors.

2016 NRC RO Admin JPM Revision Summary 2016 NRC RO A3 - (Common RO / SRO) - Using Valve Maps And Survey Maps Determine Stay Times For A Clearance (PD-RP-ALL-0001) (JPM-ADM-057-a) - MODIFIED K/A G2.3.4 - Knowledge of radiation exposure limits under normal or emergency conditions.
(CFR: 41.12 / 43.4 / 45.10) RO 3.2 SRO 3.7 The candidate will be provided with accumulated TEDE doses received for the year for three operators tasked with a clearance for a Letdown line leak. The will also be supplied valve maps and survey maps. They must determine the dose rates in the areas that the clearance will be hung to ensure that the maximum allowable individual stay times for each Operator will not exceed the Duke Annual Administrative dose limit while performing the clearance.
NOTE: Two modifications were performed. Increased the number of operators from two to three and changed the dose limit from 4.0 rem/year to 3.4 rem/year with an extension for a worker that had a previous dose history from another nuclear facility outside of Duke Energy where dose monitoring occurred.
The bank JPM was written to a superseded Progress Energy procedure:
DOS-NGGC-0004 Progress Energy Annual Administrative Dose Limits Section 9.3 (Rev.12)
LIMIT = 2 rem Progress Energy dose not to exceed 4 rem total dose if non- Progress Energy dose for the current year has been determined.
Current Duke Energy procedure that replaced the DOS-NGGC-0004 procedure that will be used for the 2016 JPM:
PD-RP-ALL-0001 Radiation Worker Responsibilities Section 5.2.2 Occupational Annual Dose Limits (Rev. 3) TEDE limit is 2.0 rem/year with up to 5.0 rem/year with extension.
The Radiation Protection Manager (RPM) or designee has the authority to extend an individuals limit up to 3.4 rem.
Since the procedural limits have changed the JPM had to be modified to reflect the new limit extension of 3.4 rem that can be granted by the RPM or designee. One worker in the JPM will still have a dose history containing non-Duke Energy dose that will be granted this extension.

(CFR: 41.5 / 43.5 / 45/12) RO 4.2 SRO 4.4 Initial conditions are that a LOCA has occurred and the Control Room HVAC is being aligned for Post-Accident Operation IAW OP-173. They are directed by the CRS to determine which Control Room emergency Outside Air intake to use, the correction factor, and the minimum and the maximum allowed indicated flow for MCR ventilation based on current radiation levels.
NOTE: Modified by changing the radiation levels and outside air temps which alters the MCR ventilation times and selection of which Control Room emergency Outside Air Intakes that should be used to supply outside air to the system. These changes make the modified JPM significantly different from the answer that is in the HNP Admin JPM bank.
2016 NRC RO SRO A3 - (Common RO / SRO) - Using Valve Maps And Survey Maps Determine Stay Times For A Clearance (PD-RP-ALL-0001) (JPM-ADM-057-a) - MODIFIED K/A G2.3.4 - Knowledge of radiation exposure limits under normal or emergency conditions.
(CFR: 41.12 / 43.4 / 45.10) RO 3.2 SRO 3.7 The candidate will be provided with accumulated TEDE doses received for the year for three operators tasked with a clearance for a Letdown line leak. The will also be supplied valve maps and survey maps. They must determine the dose rates in the areas that the clearance will be hung to ensure that the maximum allowable individual stay times for each Operator will not exceed the Duke Annual Administrative dose limit while performing the clearance.
NOTE: Two modifications were performed. Increased the number of operators from two to three and changed the dose limit from 4.0 rem/year to 3.4 rem/year with an extension for a worker that had a previous dose history from another nuclear facility outside of Duke Energy where dose monitoring occurred.
The bank JPM was written to a superseded Progress Energy procedure:
DOS-NGGC-0004 Progress Energy Annual Administrative Dose Limits Section 9.3 (Rev.12)
LIMIT = 2 rem Progress Energy dose not to exceed 4 rem total dose if non- Progress Energy dose for the current year has been determined.
Current Duke Energy procedure that replaced the DOS-NGGC-0004 procedure that will be used for the 2016 JPM:
PD-RP-ALL-0001 Radiation Worker Responsibilities Section 5.2.2 Occupational Annual Dose Limits (Rev. 3) TEDE limit is 2.0 rem/year with up to 5.0 rem/year with extension.
The Radiation Protection Manager (RPM) or designee has the authority to extend an individuals limit up to 3.4 rem.
Since the procedural limits have changed the JPM had to be modified to reflect the new limit extension of 3.4 rem that can be granted by the RPM or designee. One worker in the JPM will still have a dose history containing non-Duke Energy dose that will be granted this extension.

- 22. For plant and equipment labels:
- a. When reading equipment component identification labels, there are typically two pieces of information provided. The first is the Equipment ID Number (e.g., 1CS-12 is the equipment ID for a valve). The second is the Equipment Description (e.g., Unit 1 Upper Surge Tank Dome Inlet Isol).
- b. Concerning Equipment ID Numbers, during procedure performance a 'hard match' (which is an exact character for character match) is required when reading Equipment ID Numbers in a procedure step or safety tag and comparing to the component identification label in the plant. If a hard match does not exist, STOP and contact supervision.
- c. Concerning Equipment Description, during procedure performance, a 'soft match' can be used when exact wording is not the same between a procedure or safety tag and the component label Equipment Description. Correct Component Verification must be ensured. Slight variations (e.g., abbreviation, sequencing of wording, spacing, and dashes) are permitted as long as no ambiguity exist in proper identification of the component and the Equipment ID (if provided - always provided for a safety tag but may not be provided in a procedure step) is a hard match. A few examples are:
(1) A Procedure step states: "Open the breaker for U-1 Seal Oil Vacuum Pump Motor." An acceptable 'soft match' on the component label would read "U-1 SO Vac Pmp Mtr Bkr".
(2) A Red Safety Tag has been printed for the following tag out: "Rack out 2A HDP Bkr." An acceptable 'soft match' on the component label would read "2A Heater Drain Pump Bkr" or "Heater Drain Pump 2A Bkr".

C. (1) Tcold (2) To ensure adequate RCS heat removal is occurring.
D. (1) Tcold (2) To check for natural circulation established.
Thursday, May 19, 2016 5:04:38 PM 1
QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct:Tcold is the correct indication to use, per EOP-ES-0.1, and because there are no RCPs in service, Tcold is the most accurate indication. Basis is in accordance with WOG Background Document for ES-0.1.
A. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since Tavg is a commonly used indication for many aspects of transients, but in this case, with a loss of offsite power, there is no power to the RCPs, and therefore Tavg is not a reliable indication. The second part is the correct.
B. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since Tavg is a commonly used indication for many aspects of transients, but in this case, with a loss of offsite power, there is no power to the RCPs, and therefore Tavg is not a reliable indication. The second part is plausible since checking for natural circulation is plausible since this is a goal of the procedure, but only towards the end, and is not the specific reason.
C. Correct.
D. Incorrect. The first part is correct, since Tcold is the correct indication to use, since there are no RCPs in service.

Given the following plant conditions:
- A Reactor Trip and Safety Injection have occurred
- Containment pressure is 2.5 psig and rising
- RCS pressure is 900 psig and lowering
- Tavg is 550°F and lowering slowly
- PRZ level is 85% and rising Which ONE of the following identifies the cause of this event?
A. Small break on an RCS hot leg B. Large break on an RCS cold leg C. A stuck open PRZ PORV D. A stuck open PRZ Spray Valve Thursday, May 19, 2016 5:04:38 PM 4
QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: A steam space (or vapor space) LOCA is occurring as evident by PRZ level rising with RCS pressure lowering and Containment pressure rising. An open PRZ PORV or PRZ Safety will depressurize the RCS and an opening on the PRZ will allow the vapor space to exit the PRZ. Both the PORV and Safety valves relieve to the PRT. The PRT will eventually rupture (100 psig with 2 rupture discs) at which time the relief valves will essetially be relieving directly into the Containment which will cause Containment pressure to rise. Safety Injection flow will cause RCS temperature (Tavg) to lower.
A. Incorrect. Plausible since a break in the RCS to Containment would result in the conditions provided in the stem (rising Containment pressure, lowering RCS pressure, Reactor Trip and Safety Injection and eventually rising PRZ level as SI flow exceeds break flow) except RCS pressure is below saturation pressure so a Small Break LOCA cannot be in progress.
B. Incorrect. Plausible since a break in the RCS to Containment would result in the conditions provided in the stem (rising Containment pressure, lowering RCS pressure, Reactor Trip and Safety Injection and eventually rising PRZ level as SI flow exceeds break flow) except RCS pressure would be rapidly lowering and PRZ level would be lowering to zero or at zero and NOT rising.
C. Correct.
D. Incorrect. Plausible since a stuck open PRZ spray valve failure would result in lowering RCS pressure and rising PRZ level; however this is incorrect because this condition will not result in Containment pressure rising unless there was a break in the RCS or a open release path such as a open PORV or PRZ safety valve.

Given the following plant conditions:
- The crew is implementing EOP-ES-1.2, Post LOCA Cooldown And Depressurization Subquently the following plant conditions exist:
- Containment pressure is 3.4 psig and lowering
- PRZ level is 35% and lowering slowly
- RCS pressure is 1325 psig and stable
- RCS Loop THOT is 555°F in all 3 loops and lowering

QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: The conditions of the plant are indicative of a small break LOCA. Based on the parameters monitored RCS saturation temperature at 1340 psia is 581.5°F and in accordance with EOP-ES-1.2, to determine if SI re-initiation is required RCS subcooling is required to be greater than 40°F for adverse containment conditions. With CET at 568°F the subcooling margin is 13.5°F. Because containment pressure is above 3 psig a MSLI signal has occurred and the condenser steam dumps are not available therefore the SG PORVs will be used as the method to cooldown the RCS.
A. Correct.
B. Incorrect. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible since the Steam Dumps are the normal method of heat removal post trip; however this is incorrect since contaiment pressure has generated a MSLI the main condenser is not available.
C. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since the RCS subcooling is greater than the 10°F requirement for non-adverse conditions in containment; however this is incorrect because containment is greater than 3 psig and adverse values apply therefore the RCS subcooling is required to be greater than 40°F. The second part is correct.
D. Incorrect. The first part is plausible see B(2). The second part is plausible see C(1).

QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: With a CNMT Spray pump running and 2/4 low-low levels present, the following valves reposition for the running pump:
1CT-105 or 1CT-102, CNMT Sump to CT Pump, opens.
1CT-26 or 1CT-71, RWST to CT Pump, shuts.
During a a large break LOCA after successful initial operation of the ECCS, the reactor core is once again covered with borated water. This water has enough boron concentration to maintain the core in a shutdown condition. Decay heat is removed by a continuous supply of water from the ECCS. This supply initially comes from the refueling water storage tank (RWST). When the RWST level reaches the switchover setpoint the ECCS pumps are transferred into the recirculation mode (using ES-1.3, TRANSFER TO COLD LEG RECIRCULATION) wherein water is drawn from the containment sump and is cooled in the residual heat removal heat exchangers.
A. Incorrect. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible since ALB-001-3-1, Containment High 3 Press Alert, is in alarm the pressure inside CNMT has exceeded 10 psig and the design pressure of CNMT is based on a Main Steamline break inside CNMT; however this is incorrect because ALB-004-2-4, Refueling Water Storage Tank 2/4 Low Low Level, indicates the RWST inventory has been discharged into the CNMT sump which can only occur due to a loss of coolant accident vice a loss of secondary inventory, which reduces the volume of the RCS due to contraction of the RCS volume as a result of cooling down. This change in volume is correctable once the contents of the faulted SG are isolated from the intact SG's requiring only AFW to remove decay heat.
B. Correct.
C. Incorrect. The first part is plausible if the candidate misapplies the RHR pump CNMT Sump suction valves logic to the CNMT Spray pump CNMT suction valve logic since the RHR pump CNMT Sump suction valves SI-300, 301, 310 and 311 automatically open due to the presence of an SI signal and low low RWST level; however this is incorrect for the CNMT Spray pump CNMT suctions valve because they require the breaker for its associated pump to be closed in addition to the low low RWST level.
The second part is plausible see A(2).
D. Incorrect. The first part is plausible see C(1). The second part is correct.

Given the following plant conditions:
- The unit is in Mode 6 with refueling in progress
- RCS temperature is 114°F
- 'A' CSIP is in service
- 'B' and 'C' CSIPs are under clearance per the outage schedule.
Subsequently the 'A' CSIP trips on overcurrent Concerning Tech Spec 3.1.2.3, Reactivity Control Systems: Charging Pump -
Shutdown, which ONE of the following identifies:
(1) The impact, IF any, on refueling operations AND (2) the reason for the decision?
A. (1) Suspend all operations involving CORE ALTERATIONS or positive reactivity changes (2) There is now ONLY one method to borate the RCS when two are required B. (1) Suspend all operations involving CORE ALTERATIONS or positive reactivity changes (2) Both flow paths for boration from either the BA tank or RWST require a CSIP C. (1) There is no impact on refueling operations, refueling can continue (2) ONLY one flow path to borate the RCS is required and one is still available D. (1) There is no impact on refueling operations, refueling can continue (2) There is sufficient shutdown margin with the boron concentration in the RCS during refueling as long as Reactor Coolant temperature is maintained < 200°F Thursday, May 19, 2016 5:04:38 PM 13
QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: ONLY one charging/safety injection pump (CSIP) is in service during Mode 6 the other CSIP's are under clearance. The other 2 (of 3) are under clearance below 325°F to provide assurance that a mass addition pressure transient can be relieved by the operation of a single PORV.
When the 'A' CSIP tripped Tech Spec 3.1.2.3 could not be met since it requires a CSIP injection pump with the flow path and NO other CSIP is availabe due to being under clearance. The action statement for the loss of boron injection flow paths becoming inoperable is to suspend all operations involving CORE ALTERATIONS or positive reactivity changes.
A. Incorrect. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible if the candidate has a misconception that LCO 3.1.2.1 requires the flow path from the BAT or the RWST to be operable the RWST gravity drain flowpath remains available and the BAT does not have a gravity drain flowpath; however this is incorrect because a CSIP is required to be operable in both 3.1.2.1 AND 3.1.2.3.
B. Correct.
C. Incorrect. The first part is plausible if the candidate has a misconception that the RWST gravity drain flowpath meets the requirements for both LCO 3.1.2.1 and 3.1.2.3; however this is incorrect because a CSIP is required to be operable in both 3.1.2.1 AND 3.1.2.3. The second part is plausible see A(2).
D. Incorrect. The first part is plausible see C(1). The second part is plausible since during refueling the boron concentration in the RCS would be more than adequate to keep the Reactor shutdown with a Keff of more than 0.95 but Tech Spec 3.1.2.1 deals with RCS boration flow paths and not shutdown margins.

A. Sump Boron may be inadequate to maintain the Reactor shutdown.
B. RHR pump NPSH may be inadequate to maintain recirculation.
C. Sump pH may be higher than required for post accident limits.
D. Safety related equipment in the Containment may be flooded.
Thursday, May 19, 2016 5:04:38 PM 16
QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: Because RWST level is less than 23.4% the RHR system has automatically aligned to the Containment Recirc sump. A loss of RHR would occur in the conditions due to a degraded Contianment sump. Degraded sump performance could only occur if water level fell below this level OR the strainer modules experienced excessive clogging. Inadequate sump inventory can be diagnosed by observation of CNMT Wide Range Sump Level (LI-7162A SA/LI-7162B SB) and Recirculation Sump level (LI-7160A SA/LI-7160B SB). A minimum of 142 INCHES CNMT wide range level ensures the recirculation sump strainers are completely submerged and assures a long term recirculation suction source.
A. Incorrect. Plausible because a CNMT Wide Range Sump high level of 196 inches is associated with RB flooding and could be indicative of a leak of service water, CCW or other non-borated water source into containment, which could lower sump boron concentration to less than expected. However this is incorrect because 138.2 inches. of CNMT Wide Range Sump level is low, not high.
B. Correct.
C. Incorrect. Plausible because a low sump level would indicate that an abnormal Sodium Hydroxide level may be present in the sump, which would affect sump pH. However this is incorrect because in accordance with EOP-ES-1.3 Attachment 1 post-accident sump pH should remain within acceptable limits provided that the RWST inventory is not refilled and subsequently added to the CNMT Wide Range Sump level.
D. Incorrect. Plausible because a CNMT Wide Range Sump high level of 196 inches is associated with RB flooding and would indicate a potential for flooding of vital equipment. However this is incorrect because 138.2 inches. of CNMT Wide Range Sump level is low, not high.

A. Lower the output B. Lower the setpoint C. Raise the output D. Raise the setpoint Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: From the PRZPC Student Text, with the controller in MANUAL, the output of the controller is controlled by two manual pushbuttons. While in MANUAL, pressing the raise pushbutton will affect the system by simulating a pressure that is above reference pressure, therefore, it is sensed as a demand to decrease plant pressure. Conversely,pressing the Lower pushbutton is sensed as a demand by the operator to increase plant pressure. Lowering controller output will energize heaters and raise pressure.
A. Correct.
B. Incorrect. Once in manual adjusting the setpoint will have no effect. Plausible if applicant believes setpoint is still in the control circuitry while in manual.
C. Incorrect. Raising controller output will de-energize heaters/open spray valves lowering pressure. Plausible if candidate doesn't understand the inverse relationship between controller output and actual pressure, ie., believes raising controller output raises pressure.

Given the following plant conditions:
- The Reactor was operating at 100% power when an ATWS occurred
- All Turbine throttle valves are NOT shut Which ONE of the following is the preferred method to trip the Main Turbine in accordance with EOP-FR-S.1, Response to Abnormal Nuclear Power Generation?
A. Trip the Turbine from the MCB.
B. Shut all MSIVs and bypass valves.
C. Trip the Turbine locally at the front standard.
D. Manually runback the Turbine using fast action.
Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: EOP-FR-S.1 checks the status of the Turbine Throttle Valve to determine if the Turbine has tripped. In the event the Turbine did not trip automatically the first action directed is to trip the Turbine from the MCB.
A. Correct.
B. Incorrect. Plausible since this is an RNO action that is procedurally directed in the event that the turbine is not successfully tripped from the main control board. However this is not the most preferred method to trip the Turbine.
C. Incorrect. Plausible since local action is required to Trip the Reactor the candidate may misapply the Reactor Trip breaker local action requirements to the requirements for the Turbine. Additionally the user's guide states that "if the operator cannot satisfy a condition with actions at the MCB, the RNO column should be consulted for instructions regarding local actions. If no local actions are specified in the RNO, the operator should continue attempts to satisfy the condition using all means at his disposal. However this is not the most preferred method to trip the Turbine.
D. Incorrect. Plausible since this is an RNO action that is procedurally directed in the event that the turbine is not successfully tripped from the main control board. However this is not the most preferred method to trip the Turbine.

Which ONE of the following identifies the REASON why it is desirable to terminate SI flow in EOP-E-3, Steam Generator Tube Rupture, after a rapid cooldown and depressurization of the RCS has been completed?
(Assume SI Termination Critieria is satisfied)
A. To prevent SG overfill.
B. To prevent RWST depletion.
C. To prevent cycling the PRZ PORVs.
D. To prevent a excessive RCS cooldown.
Thursday, May 19, 2016 5:04:38 PM 23
QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: If SI flow is not terminated, leakage into the secondary will eventually fill the steam generator with water and lift the atmospheric relief valves.
This could damage the relief valve and main steamline which would complicate subsequent recovery and aggravate the radiological consequences. Hence, SI must be terminated when the criteria in subsequent steps are satisfied to prevent steam generator overfill.
A. Correct.
B. Incorrect. Plausible since the RWST is the suction source the ECCS pumps are aligned to following an actuation signal; however for this event since the RCS inventory is being lost into the S/G, the inventory is recoverable once the RCS pressure is reduced below ruptured S/G pressure.
C. Incorrect. Plausible since operation of the SI system results in reflood of the RCS and once break flow is reduced to less than SI flow the PRZ will refill and repressurize which could result in PRZ PORVs cycling once the PRZ becomes solid; however this is incorrect for this event since the Secondary PORV and Safety setpoints are lower than the PRZ PORV and Safety setpoints which results in the re-establishing of break flow as the RCS inventory is being lost in to the S/G prior to the PRZ PORVs reaching their actuation setpoint.
D. Incorrect. Plausible since the RWST water temperature is normally maintained less than 125°F, injection of this water source when mixed with the RCS coolant will lower the RCS temperature; however this is incorrect for this event since the inventory is being lost into the S/G the effect of lowering the bulk RCS temperture is mimimal compared to the inventory transfer from the RCS.

- RCS bleed and feed has been initiated Subsequently the following conditions exists:
- All SGs are completely dry and depressurized
- Auxiliary Feedwater capability is restored Which ONE of the following describes the STRATEGY used to re-establish Feedwater AND why?
A. Feed ONLY one (1) SG to ensure RCS cooldown rates are established within Technical Specification limits.
B. Feed ONLY one (1) SG to ensure a failure due to excessive thermal stresses is limited to one SG.
C. Feed ALL SGs to establish subcooled conditions in the RCS as soon as possible.
D. Feed ALL SGs to allow termination of RCS bleed and feed as soon as possible.
Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: One SG is fed at minimal rate to minimize thermal shock and potential damage to the SG tubesheet when SGs are hot and dry. If a failure in an SG occurs due to excessive thermal stresses, the failure is isolated to one steam generator.
A. Incorrect. Plausible as operator is cautioned to control feedwater rates to prevent excessive cooldown for enhanced plant control, not to comply with tech spec requirements.

QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: EOP-ECA-0.0 requires the CSFST's to be monitored for information only until directed by the procedure. A red path does not exist on CSF-3.
Even though S/G level is <25%, Total FW flow is >210 KPPH.
A. Incorrect. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible since the 25%

B. Correct.
C. Incorrect.

With the A sequencer running program A it will start 1AH-15A SA, Control Room Cooling Unit Normal Supply Fan. The start of 1AH-15A SA will automatically open 1CZ-1 SA, Control Room Normal Supply Intake Valve.
A. Incorrect. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible since the loss of power to the MCR OAI damper radiation monitors results in a Control Room Isolation Signal (CRIS). The CRIS signal will shut both Control Room Normal Supply Intake Valves, 1CZ-1 SA and 1CZ-2 SB. This however is incorrect because the CRIS has a time delay to allow the EDG to restore power to the Safety Bus before the signal will generate an actuation.
B. Correct.
C. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since the loss of power to the MCR OAI damper radiation monitors results in a Control Room Isolation Signal (CRIS). The CRIS signal will trip 1E-9A, Control Room Cooling Unit Normal Exhaust Fan and the candidate may misapply this knowledge to the 1AH-15 SA, Control Room Cooling Unit Normal Supply Fan. This however is incorrect because the CRIS generates a start signal for 1AH-15 SA. The second part is plausible since the 1CZ-1 SA, Control Room Normal Supply Intake Valve repositions based on the status of the 1AH-15A SA and will automatically shut with the air handler not running. This however is incorrect because the CRIS generates a start signal for 1AH-15 SA.
D. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since the loss of power to the MCR OAI damper radiation monitors results in a Control Room Isolation Signal (CRIS). The CRIS signal will trip 1E-9A, Control Room Cooling Unit Normal Exhaust Fan and the candidate may misapply this knowledge to the 1AH-15 SA, Control Room Cooling Unit Normal Supply Fan.

A. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since both the CCW pumps and the CSIPs only require two of the three available pumps to be operable; however this is incorrect because the Technical Specifications require all three of the AFW pumps to be operable for the LCO. The second part is correct.
B. Incorrect. The first part is plausible see A(1). The second part is plausible since it is normal for ALB-017-5-3, Aux Feedwater Pump A Trouble, to alarm when the 'A' MDAFW pump is started via the sequencer and the pump is available; however this is incorrect because ALB-017-5-4, Aux Feedwater Pump A Trip Or Close Ckt Trouble, is an indication of a breaker trip or breaker control power issue that must be investigated locally.
C. Correct.

Given the following plant conditions:
- The unit is operating at 100% power
- A loss of CCW has occurred
- The crew is attempting to restore CCW flow in accordance with AOP-014, Loss of Component Cooling Water
- BOTH trains of CCW flow indicate 0 gpm
- All RCP temperatures are currently below their alarm setpoints and slowly rising
- RCP Seal Injection flow to each RCP is approximately 9 gpm Which ONE of the following identifies (1) the MAXIMUM time allowed to trip the RCPs in accordance with AOP-014 AND (2) the components that may be damaged if the RCPs are not tripped?

QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: Operation of RCPs for greater than 10 minutes without CCW cooling to the motor oil coolers may result in RCP bearing damage.
A. Incorrect. This is plausible since AOP-018 has a 3 to 5 minute time window to isolate seal water to a failed # 1 seal. 9 gpm seal leak off flow is indication of a failed # 1 seal; however this is incorrect because the candidate is provided seal injection flow of 9 gpm and this 3 to 5 minute time window is not applicable to the conditions provided. The second part is correct.
B. Incorrect. The first part is plausible see A(1). The second part is plausible since the themal barrier heat exchanger is cooled by CCW flow and it minimizes the temperature gradiant of the RCS to minimize the heat up of the pump radial bearing; however this is incorrect because the requirement to stop the RCP is based on no CCW flow to the Motor cooler not the thermal barrier heat exchanger.
C. Correct.
D. Incorrect. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible see B(2).

The Intermediate and Source Range, Neutron Flux trips provide core protection during reactor startup to mitigate the consequences of an uncontrolled rod cluster control assembly bank withdrawal from a subcritical condition.
A. Incorrect. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible since the Reactor is crtitical all Shutdown banks are fully withdrawn and 2 of the 4 Control banks are fully withdrawn. However this is incorrect because this is the bases for the power range neutron flux rate trip.
B. Correct.
C. Inorrect. The first part is plausible since the removal of the control power fuses with the associated SRNI blocked and Reactor power is above P-6 will NOT generate a Reactor trip signal.

A. Allows opening the associated dampers.
B. Clears the alarm in order to minimize MCR distractions.
C. Ensures the dampers will remain open on rising radiation levels.
D. Ensures alarm and auto-closure occur again on rising radiation levels.
Thursday, May 19, 2016 5:04:39 PM 57
QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: Alarm response for a radiation monitor in alarm will direct the operator to enter AOP-005. In accordance with note prior to AOP-005, Attachment 4 step 4, reason the alarm setting is adjusted is so that it will alarm on subsequent higher radiation levels and to regain auto-closure capability on high radiation alarm at the emergency OAIs.
A. Incorrect. Plausible since the high radiation alarm generates a Control Room Isolation Signal and the associated (AH-15) dampers reposition; However this is incorrect because adjustment of the alarm setpoint is not required since the associated supply fan dampers are opened via a 42X contact based on the status of the associated fan.
B. Incorrect. Plausible since AD-OP-ALL-1000 defines a nuisance alarm as an alarm although valid, repeated actuation of the alarm distracts the plant operators. AD-OP-ALL-1000 provides guidance to consider disabling alarms that will remain in for an extended period of time. It is possible for the CRS/SM to determine the high radiation alarm is a distraction and direct the setpoint be adjusted in response to a nuisance alarm since the crew will remain in the MCR; However this is incorrect with respect to the requirements of AOP-005 and is not the reason the alarm setpoint is adjusted.
C. Incorrect. Plausible since the Control Room Isolation Signal is a single shot actuation. This can be reset with an alarm condtion present which will result in the defeat of the auto-closure capability during subsequent high radiation conditions; However this is incorrect since the procedure sequence requires the adjustment of the high radiation setpoint above the current value prior to opening the emergency OAI's which will reset the single shot actuation and restore the auto-closure capability.
D. Correct.

Thursday, May 19, 2016 5:04:39 PM 60
QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: RCS over pressure protection is provided by PRZ PORV's (lift pressure setting of 2335 psig) and PRZ Safety Valves (lift pressure setting of 2485 psig). While checking for a RCS vent path in EOP-FR-C.1 the operator checks that the PRZ PORVs are SHUT. The expected condition of the PRZ PORV's when pressure is
> 2335 psig is OPEN. The procedure instructions when pressure exceeds 2335 psig is to ensure at least ONE PRZ Block valve is OPEN. With a lifting PORV and an OPEN Block Valve RCS pressure can be relieved to the PRT preventing an overpressure event prior to the lifting of the PRZ Safety Valves.
A. Correct.
B. Incorrect. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible since the Reactor Vessel vent valves may be OPEN to relieve RCS pressure; however this is incorrect because they are not designed to prevent an RCS overpressure event. The PRZ PORV's and Safety valves are designed for the prevention of RCS overpressurization.
C. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since the pressure is below the High PRZ Presseure Reactor trip setpoint of 2385 psig the candidate may believe PRZ PORVs have not reach the opening setpoint and are shut; however this is incorrect because the PRZ PORVs lift setpoint is 2335 psig. The second part is plausible since when coupled with the first part the answer "to prevent primary plant depressurization." would be a correct result for the action.
D. Incorrect. The first part is plausible see C(1). The second part is plausible since operation of the RCPs is desired during the implementation of EOP-FR-C.1 with the PRZ PORVs SHUT the RCP seal d/p will be maintained. However this is incorrect because the PRZ PORVs are checked to ensure they prevent an RCS overpressurization event.

The steps also ensure design heat removal capability is maintained. The ESW system configuration following SI actuation has no remote radiation monitoring capability. A leakage path could exist from CNMT atmosphere if fan cooler tube leaks were present with indicated CNMT pressure greater than 11.6 PSIG, and either the ESW booster pumps or the associated orifice bypass isolation valve failed (ref ESR 951022). These EOP steps isolate the potential ESW release path.
A. Incorrect. Plausible since the higher the CNMT pressure the closer the ESW pump is to its design operating margin of 225 ft of head and therefore the potenial to damage the ESW pump is higher; however this is incorrect because the ESW booster pump and orifice bypass isolations are designed to prevent the ESW Pump from exceeding its design margin.
B. Correct.
C. Incorrect. Plausible since the ESW Booster pump has a higher discharge pressure than the ESW pump therefore the potential for higher flow through the CNMT Fan Coolers is possible; however this is incorrect because the ESW pumps are able to provide cooling for the CNMT Fan Coolers and prevent exceeding the FSAR design limits.
D. Incorrect. Plausible since the higher the CNMT pressure the closer the plant is to the design margin of 45 psig; however this is incorrect because the ESW pumps are able to provide cooling for the CNMT Fan Coolers and prevent exceeding the FSAR design limits.

- SI termination criteria are NOT met
- The crew is currently implementing EOP-ECA-3.1, SGTR with Loss of Reactor Coolant: Subcooled Recovery Desired Subsequently the following conditions exists:
- RWST level is 24.9% and slowly lowering
- Containment Flooding is a valid ORANGE path
- There are no other RED or ORANGE paths Based on the current plant conditions, which ONE of the following completes the statements below?

QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: Because the crew is implementing EOP-ECA-3.1 and the EOP-Users Guide rules of usage dictate any time EOP-E-0 has been exited to transition to another EOP, FRs are to be implemented based on the status of the CSFST. With a valid Orange condition on the CSFST terminus for Containment Flooding the crew will transition to EOP-FR-Z.2 and Step 2 of EOP-FR-Z.2 will have the crew check Containment Sump activity level.
A. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since RWST level is approaching the foldout critieria of 23.4% for Cold Leg Recirculation Switchover at 24.9%;
however this is incorrect because the criteria is not satisfied until RWST level is below 23.4%. The second part is plausible since EOP-ES-1.3 will sample the Primary and Secondary for activity; however this is incorrect because the Containment sump water is only sampled to determine boron concentration and pH.
B. Incorrect. The first part is plausible see A(1). The second part is plausible since it is the correct reason fo the selected procedure.
C. Correct.
D. Incorrect. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible since it correct reason during other EOP procedures, see A(2); however this is the incorrect reason for the selected procedure.

(Reference provided)
A. Failed B. Degraded C. Blocked D. Repsonding to a #2 seal failure Thursday, May 19, 2016 5:04:39 PM 73
QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: AOP-018 Attachment 2 Specific Symptoms of Seal Malfunctions #1 Seal degraded. Total #1 seal flow > 6.0 gpm but < 8 gpm (indicated is 7.4 gpm) with both RCP seal water inlet and radial bearing temperature STABLE (as defined in Note 2, "Stable" temperature). A slow rise in temperature or a rise in temperature but at a lowering rate and well below 230°F. Under these conditions, additional time is available to evaluate the trend and contract Engineering. In the absence of additional guidance, if temperature has risen to > 190°F and is still rising, it should be considered STEADILY RISING. Since the temperature is rising at a lowering rate and no temperature has exceeded 190°F these conditions meet STABLE.
A. Incorrect. Plausible since this would be correct answer if the RCP seal water inlet or radial bearing temperature was evaluated as STEADILY RISING.
B. Correct.
C. Incorrect. Plausible since this would be correct answer if the RCP seal flow was lower since both RCP seal water inlet and redial bearing temperatures are STABLE.
D. Incorrect. Plausible since in accordance with AOP-018-Basis Document, discussion item #15 a failure of the RCP #2 seal will result in an rise in the RCP #2 seal leakage flow with a proportionate reduction in the RCP #1 seal leakoff flow. A #2 RCP seal failure does have an effect on the #1 seal flows but will NOT cause a temperature rise of either the seal water inlet or RCP radial bearing temps. Since a #2 RCP seal failure can affect the
- 1 seal a candidate could have a misconception that a #2 seal failure would not only cause a #1 seal flow rate change but also cause both Seal water inlet temps and RCP radial bearing temps to rise.

Given the following plant conditions:
- The unit is operating at 100% power
- RCS boron concentration is 1192 ppm Subsequently the following occurs:
- A new CVCS Cation Bed Demineralizer is to be placed in service and is to be flushed to the Recycle Holdup Tank for sampling
- 1CS-120, Letdown To VCT/ Holdup Tank LCV-115A is placed in the RHT position AND the valve FAILS to reposition
- The Cation Bed Demineralizer flush is initiated Which ONE of the following will occur?
A. RCS Tavg will rise B. RCS pressure lowers C. Letdown flow rises above 60 gpm D. RCS lithium and cesium concentrations rise Thursday, May 19, 2016 5:04:39 PM 76
QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: 1CS-120 failing to divert will cause a dilution of the RCS with an unsaturated CVCS cation demin placed in service. RCS Tavg will rise due to an increase in Reactor power. In accordance with OP-107.02, CVCS Demineralizer Operations, a caution when placing a Cation Bed in service states that "until a new bed is borated, the effluent boron concentration is less than RCS boron concentrations.
Therefore, if a new cation bed was inadvertantly placed in service RCS boron concentrations would be reduced, Reactor power would rise and Tavg would rise.
A. Correct.
B. Incorrect. Plausible since RCS pressure would tend to rise on a power increase versus lower. RCS pressure lowering is plausible if the candidate were to think the cation bed is borating the RCS while in service or inverts the effects.
C. Incorrect. Plausible since Letdown flow is limited to 60 gpm in accordance with OP-107.2. Limiting Letdown flow to 60 gpm prior to flushing the demin will minimize any RCS inventory losses as voids in the Cation Bed that cannot be removed during the fill and vent are collapsed and pressure surges if the RC filter clogs. Additionally, 1CS-94, Mixed Bed Demins to VCT Isol Vlv is locally throttled with a flow rate NOT to exceed 60 gpm.
This choice is plausible if the candidate thinks letdown flow would increase due to placing the cation bed in service by having an additional flow path for Letdown to travel through.
D. Incorrect. Plausible if the candidate has a misconception (thinks opposite effect) on how the cation demineralizers effect lithium and cesium concentrations in the RCS. Lithium and cesium concentrations would actually lower with the CVCS cation bed placed in service.

Thursday, May 19, 2016 5:04:39 PM 79
QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: AOP-002 directs the candidate to first start a boric acid pump in order to establish a Boration flow path. If a boric acid pump is not available the operator is directed to open 1CS-291(LCV-115B) and 1CS-292(LCV-115D) RWST supply to the CSIPs, then shut 1CS-165(LCV-115C) and 1CS-166(LCV-115E) to provide a Boration flow path from the RWST to the CSIP suction.
A. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since AOP-002 Section 3.0 step 7 identifies this as part of the actions required to align the alternate boric acid flow path; however this is incorrect because no boric acid pump is running. The second part is plausible since VCT level is at the value which an auto make up will occur and this action will raise VCT level to eliminate the potential for gas binding due to low VCT level; however this is incorrect because gas binding is not a concern until the VCT level is below 5%.
B. Incorrect. The first part is plausible see A(1). The second part is correct.
C. Incorrect. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible see A(2).

- 'A' train RHR is in service providing both core cooling and low pressure letdown
- Letdown Line Pressure Control valve PCV-145, (1CS-38) is in AUTO

QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: RHR Pump trip will take away the motive force for Letdown in this circumstance. With Charging in manual, inflow will be greater than outflow, and pressure will rise.
A. Correct.
B. Incorrect. Plausible since the loss of air to 1CS-28, RHR Letdown, will shut this valve raising RCS pressure; however this is incorrect because 1CS-38 is a 'fail open' valve, so pressure would be reduced.
C. Incorrect. Plausible since reducing the setpoint on controllers such as the PRZ Master Pressure controller, Steam Dump controller or SG PORV controller will result in the assosciated valve opening; however this is incorrect because reducing demand on the charging flow control valve will cause the valve to close, lowering charging flow and reduce RCS pressure while the plant is solid.
D. Incorrect. Plausible since the CCW to the RHR heat exchanger will rise; the candidate may misapply this concept and determine the RHR system flow has risen which would raise RCS pressure; however this is incorrect because the heat exchanger outlet temperature would lower reducing RCS temperature and reduce RCS pressure while the plant is solid.

QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: Annunciator ALB-009-8-1 has multiple inputs that causes the annunciator to alarm. One of which is high temperature which has a setpoint of 120°F.
At 1010 the PRT temperature is above the temperature at which the annunciator will go into alarm.
A. Incorrect. Plausible since at this PRT input temperature annunciator ALB-009-8-2, Pressurizer Relief Discharge High Temp goes into alarm. The alarm comes on when the PRZ PORV discharge line temperature exceeds 140°F as sensed by TI-463. To confirm the alarm the operator checks PRT level, pressure, and temperature for corresponding changes.
B. Incorrect. Plausible since at this PRT input temperature annunciator ALB-009-8-3, Pressurizer Safety Relief Discharge High Temp goes into alarm. The alarm comes on when the PRZ Safety valve discharge line temperature exceeds 250°F as sensed by TI-465, TI-467, or TI-469. To confirm the alarm the operator checks Safety valve discharge line temperatures and PRT level, pressure, and temperature for corresponding changes.
C. Correct.
D. Incorrect. Plausible since an input temperature of > 400°F would require that the Safety valve be declared inoperable. It is an indication that there has been a loss of loop seal. The loss of loop seal may cause the associated safety lift setpoint to shift down to normal operating pressure. PRT input temperature annunciator ALB-009-8-3, Pressurizer Safety Relief Discharge High Temp would have already been in alarm when the PRZ Safety valve discharge line temperature exceeded 250°F as sensed by TI-465, TI-467, or TI-469.

- The 1B-SB sequencer starts, however the 'B' MDAFW pump sequencer start relay fails, resulting in failure of the 'B' MDAFW pump to start
- The 1A-SA Diesel fails to start Which ONE of the following describes the method for restoration of feedwater?
The 'B' MDAFW pump .
A. must be started by the operator B. cannot be started until the sequencer is reset C. will start when at least 2 SG levels are less than 25%
D. will start in Load Block 9 due to loss of both Main Feed pumps Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: The failure of the 'B' MDAFW pump sequencer start relay will prevent the automatic start of the 'B' MDAFW pump. Both EOP-E-0 and the EOP-Users Guide direct the operator to attempt to manually start equipment that should have automatically started once the sequencer has reached Load Block 9.
A. Correct.
B. Incorrect. Plausible since the actuation of the sequencer disable redundant automatic start signals during its operation; however this is incorrect because the manual operation of the MCB switch is not defeated during sequencer operation.
C. Incorrect. Plausible since this is an available start signal under normal conditions for the AFW system pumps; however this is incorrect because during sequencer operations this start signal is defeated and will not be restored until the sequencer is reset.
D. Incorrect. Plausible since this is an available start signal under normal conditions; however this is incorrect because during sequencer operations this start signal is defeated and will not be restored until the sequencer is reset.

QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: On a loss of IA to 1CC-337, TCV-144 fails full open, raising CCW flow through the letdown heat exchanger, this causes temperature to lower. Lower letdown temperature results in absorption of BA in the demineralizers, resulting in a dilution of the RCS, raising Reactor power to >100%
requiring the crew to reduce power in accordance with AD-OP-ALL-0203.
A. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since multiple CCW isolation valves fail in the shut position.
1CC-304 and 305, Gross Failed Fuel Detector sample isolation valves, 1DW-15, Makeup to the CCW Surge Tank, and both RHR sample cooler heat exchangers are examples; however this is incorrect since TCV-144 opens to ensure the LD Heat Exchanger effluent temperature is reduced in order to protect the downstream piping from over pressurization. The second part is correct.
B. Incorrect. The first part is plausible see A(1). The second part is plausible since letdown system temperature control valve 1CS-50, TCV-143 is a three way valve that realigns to bypass around or align process water flow through the demineralizer beds to protect the demineralizer resin material from damage due to high temperature. If the candidate misapplies the letdown system TCV design and determines TCV-144 operates the same as TCV-143 they would assume that valve would shut to align CCW flow around the heat exchanger. Since the letdown temperature would rise and reduce the absorption of boric acid in the demineralizers. This would result in an uncontrolled boration of the RCS and reduce Reactor power requiring the crew to stabilize the plant at the current reactor power once control of 1CC-337 has been re-established. In accordance with AD-OP-ALL-0203 the crew should stablize the unit at a power level at or below the pre-transient level. However this is incorrect since TCV-144 opens to align more flow through the LD Heat Exchanger.
C. Correct.
D. Incorrect. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible since letdown system temperature control valve 1CS-50, TCV-143 is a three way valve that realigns to bypass around or align process water flow through the demineralizer beds to protect the demineralizer resin material from damage due to high temperature. If the candidate misapplies the letdown system TCV design and determines TCV-144 operates the same as TCV-143 they would assume that valve would open to align CCW flow around the heat exchanger.

In accordance with AD-OP-ALL-0203 the crew should stablize the unit at a power level at or below the pre-transient level. However this is incorrect because the will stabilize at at power level above 100% and power must be reduce to a power level at or below the pre-transient level.

While establishing a bubble in the PRZ per GP-002, Normal Plant Heatup From Cold Solid To Hot Subcritical Mode 5 To Mode 3, letdown pressure control valve 1CS-38, PK-145.1 LTDN Pressure, modulates open.
Which ONE of the following describes why 1CS-38 modulates open?
A. CCW heat load lowers B. Thermal expansion of liquid in the PRZ C. PRZ spray valves are shut while drawing a bubble D. Switchover of letdown to orifices from RHR-CVCS cross-connect Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: Thermal expansion of the liquid due to the heaters being energized results in a pressure rise in the RCS. PK-145.1 opens to maintain letdown pressure, resulting in rising letdown flow.
A. Incorrect. Plausible since the letdown heat exchanger is cooled by CCW; however this is incorrect since temperature has little effect on the response of PK-145.1 with a bubble in the PRZ.
B. Correct.
C. Incorrect. Plausible since the spray valves are shut while a bubble is being drawn; however this is incorrect since PK-145.1 opens to maintain letdown line pressure, not RCS pressure.
D. Incorrect. Plausible since RHR letdown may be placed in service at low temperature and pressure conditions; however this is incorrect since RHR is not in service while drawing a bubble.

QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: Two PRZ pressure detectors provide inputs for the PRZPCS (PT-444 and 445) and three other PRZ pressure detectors provide RPS and ESFAS protective (PT-455, 456 and 457) functions. PRZ LT-461 shares a common reference leg location with PRZ PT-444 and because the sensing line for PT-444 has developed a leak a level error can result from a reference leg leak. PRZ level indication would be erroneously high because the pressure sensed by the reference leg would lower, and the resulting differential pressure would lower and results in the indicated level being higher. This failure can be confirmed by comparison of the other level indications to identify the incorrect channel.
A. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since the PRZ level transmitter provide inputs to both the control and protection functions the candidate may conclude that the PRZ pressure transmitters function in the same fashion. However this is incorrect because PT-444 and 445 only provide input into the PRZ pressure control function and not the RPS or ESFAS protection functions.
PT-455, 456 and 457 provide the inputs for RPS. The second part is correct.
B. Incorrect. The first part is plausible see A(1). The second part is plausible since the candidate has to recall the location of the level transmitter tap in reference to PT-444. The candidate could conclude the connection is on the variable side of the level transmitter and the indicated level will be the same as actual level and lower as inventory is lost through the leak.
However this is incorrect because the connection between LT-461 and PT-444 is via the reference leg and a leak from this location will reduce the transmitter D/P and LT-461 will indicate higher.
C. Correct.
D. Incorrect. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible see B(2).

QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: Reactor Trip Breakers A and B remain closed (red light illuminated) because the P-8 logic is not satisfied. P-8 issatisfied when 2 of 4 Power Ranges exceed 49% RTP. The condition given in the stem is 38%. When power is between 10% and 49% two RCPs would have to trip to generate an automatic Reactor Trip signal.

QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: Train ESFAS slave relays are powered from Instrument Bus SI (SIV). A loss of SI or SIV will result in a loss of ESFAS functions driven by slave relays for that train.
A. Incorrect Plausible since the ESFAS relays are powered from the safety instrument buses. If SI or SIII is lost, the MCB controller for MDAFW pump flow control valves will not be operable; flow control valves will not shut on an AFW isolation signal and will not open on an auto open signal. Train ESFAS slave relays are powered from Instrument Bus SI (SIV). A loss of SI or SIV will result in a loss of ESFAS functions driven by slave relays for that train. A loss of SI will cause a loss of 'A' Train ONLY the question is asking for BOTH 'A' and 'B' Train.
B. Incorrect Plausible since the ESFAS relays are powered from the safety instrument buses. If power is lost to Instrument Bus SII (B Train and TDAFW) or SIII (A Train) the associated AFW pump suction pressure instrument will read low. If the AFW pump is running, it will not trip on Lo-Lo suction pressure nor will it be prevented from being started. Additionally, if power is lost to Instrument Bus SII (B Train) or SIII (A Train), the associated CNMT Spray Additive Tank level indicators will read empty but their associated CNMT Spray Chemical Addition Valve will not automatically shut. If necessary, the valve(s) may be manually operated.
C. Correct D. Incorrect Plausible since the ESFAS slave relays are powered from Instrument Bus SI (SIV). To answer this question it would take BOTH SI and SIV and only one of the two (SIV) are listed. If power is lost to Instrument Bus SII (B Train and TDAFW) or SIII (A Train) the associated AFW pump suction pressure instrument will read low. If the AFW pump is running, it will not trip on Lo-Lo suction pressure nor will it be prevented from being started.

A. ANY one of the four switches.
B. ANY two of the four switches.
C. EITHER the LEFT two switches OR the RIGHT two switches.
D. EITHER the INSIDE two switches OR the OUTSIDE two switches.
Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: There are 4 channels for Containment Spray actuation logic on MCB.

Which ONE of the following is the REASON why Containment Spray is operated in accordance with the guidance from EOP-ECA-1.1, Loss of Emergency Coolant Recirculation, while implementing EOP-FR-Z.1, Response to High Containment Pressure?
A. Actions required by ECA's normally have priority over those in FR's.
B. Containment pressure is expected to be below the HI-3 reset setpoint.
C. Conservation of RWST inventory is required to ensure availability of core cooling.
D. There is no available suction source for the pumps if the recirc sump is unavailable.
Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: In accordance with the ERG Background Document, Guideline ECA-1.1 uses a less restrictive criteria, which permits reduced spray pump operation depending on RWST level, containment pressure and number of emergency fan coolers operating. The less restrictive criteria for containment spray operation is used in guideline ECA-1.1 since recirculation flow to the RCS is not available and it is very important to conserve RWST water, if possible, by stopping containment spray pumps.
A. Incorrect. Plausible since the EOP-Users Guide states "certain E-, ES- and ECA procedures take precedence over some FR procedures because of their treatment of specific initiating events"; however this is incorrect because this precedence will be identified in a Note or Caution at the beginning of the applicable EOP.
B. Incorrect. Plausible since the RWST minimum volume is designed to "assure sufficient water is available within containment to permit recirculation cooling flow to the core and the reactor remain subcritical in cold conditions" it may be assumed the equilibrium containment presssure once the RWST volume is exhausted will be below the HI-3 reset value.
However this is incorrect because the reason to use the less restrictive criteria for containment spray operation from EOP-ECA-1.1.
C. Correct.
D. Incorrect. Plausible since the Containment Spray pump take a suction from the because RWST or the Containment Recirculation Sump; however this is incorrect because EOP-ECA-1.1 determines the availablility of the Containment Recirculation Sump based on the status of the RHR system not the Containment Spray system.

Since a Turbine Trip signal is present all of the Turbine Throttle valves would be shut and the Auto Stop Trip header would be depressurized causing the Turbine Ventilating valves to OPEN and MSR Non-Return valves to SHUT. 1GS-97 and 1GS-98 automatically open, while 1HD-2, 1HD-3, 1HD-302 and 1HD-303 shut automatically based on the status of the Turbine Throttle valves or the Auto Stop Trip header pressure which are used to determine if the Turbine is tripped or latched.
A. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since with the Turbine tripped 1st stage pressure is reduced to the pressure of the Main Condenser which is less than the 5 psig. The Gland Sealing Steam Spillover Regulator to the condenser to modulates open if header pressure is > 5 psig and therefore the valve would be shut on a turbine trip, however the ventilating valve open to provide a flowpath to the condenser for the steam trapped in the HP turbine. The second part is correct.
B. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since with the Turbine tripped 1st stage pressure is reduced to the pressure of the Main Condenser which is less than the 5 psig. The Gland Sealing Steam Spillover Regulator to the condenser to modulates open if header pressure is > 5 psig and therefore the valve would be shut on a turbine trip, however the ventilating valve open to provide a flowpath to the condenser for the steam trapped in the HP turbine. The second part is plausible since the turbine drain valves automatically open following a turbine trip to provide a drain path for the residual steam trapped in the turbine as this steam begins to condense, however this is .
C. Correct.
D. Incorrect. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible since the turbine drain valves automatically open following a turbine trip to provide a drain path for the residual steam trapped in the turbine as this steam begins to condense.

QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: FCV-2071B has received an AFW isolation signal due to the Main Steam Isolation signal coincident with high differential steam pressure. No automatic start signal has been generated for the TDAFW pump (only 1 SG low-low level has occurred) so the steam supply valves should be closed.
A. Incorrect. Plausible since the valve controller is set at 100% per OP-137, and a MDAFWP start signal has been generated which would open the FCVs from the MDAFW pumps (not TDAFW), however it received an AFW isolation signal due to the Main Steam Isolation signal coincident with high differential steam pressure. Second half is plausible since this valve would open on low-low level in 2 SGs.
B. Incorrect. Plausible since the valve controller is set at 100% per OP-137, and a MDAFWP start signal has been generated which would open the FCVs from the MDAFW pumps (not TDAFW), however it received an AFW isolation signal due to the Main Steam Isolation signal coincident with high differential steam pressure.

QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: OP-134 P&L #9 states: To satisfy Condensate Pump start permissive, the Condensate Pump Discharge Valve has to be open 10 to 13% for the first pump to start and the discharge valve fully open for the second pump to start. With neither Condensate Pump running, taking the Condensate Pump Discharge Valve control switch to the OPEN position and releasing it will cause the valve to open to the 10 to 13% open position. A note in section 5.3 for starting the first condensate pump states: When the breaker for the first condensate pump shuts and MFP suction pressure reaches 210 psig (sensed by PS-2201), the discharge valves for BOTH condensate pumps stroke full open.
A. Incorrect. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible since the A Condensate Pump discharge valve does open after starting the first Condensate pump; however this is incorrect because BOTH Condensate pump discharge valves will automatically fully open when MFW pump suction pressure reaches 210 psig (sensed by PS-2201)..
B. Correct.
C. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since other plant systems must have their discharge valves shut for water hammer concerns prior to starting the pump; however this is incorrect for the operation of the Condensate Pump Breaker.

QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: APP-ALB-017 window 7-3 is an indication that the TDAFW Pump has loss control power to the governor valve. Without power the governor fails open and is not able to control the turbine speed which results in an overspeed condition on the TDAFW Pump. The APP response provides guidance the the Trip and Throttle valve will shut automatically and the operator is required to manually shut the steam admission valve to the TDAFW Pump 1MS-70 SA and 1MS-72 SB.
A. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since the governor valve is controlled via a leakage assembly similar to the Trip and Throttle valve and the candidate may misapply this operation to the cause of the turbine trip alarm and determine the governor valve is shut. However this is incorrect because the governor valve is normally held open by a spring and a hydraulic operator overcomes the spring pressure to modulate the turbine speed.
The second part is correct.
B. Incorrect. The first part is plausible see A(1). The second part is plausible since the trip and throttle valve operates when the trip setpoint is reached and shut the steam supply to the TDAFW pump. But inaccordance with the APP the corrective action is to shut BOTH 1MS-70 and 1MS-72.
C. Correct.
D. Correct. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible see B(2).

QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: The automatic start of the Diesel due to the undervoltage condition on the 1A-SA Safety Bus results in the bypassing of non-emergency diesel generator trips, additionally with Breaker 105, Emergency Bus A-SA To Aux Bus D Tie Breaker, open the non-emergency diesel generator trips are bypassed. The following five Diesel trips remain active during emergency start conditions:
Overspeed Trip Emergency Stop (Manual)
Emergency Bus Differential Trip Loss Of Both Gen Pot CKS Trip Gen Diff Protection Trip A. Incorrect. Plausible since the diesel started from an emergency start signal due to the undervoltage condition on the 1A-SA Safety Bus which results in all non-emergency trips being bypassed; however this is incorrect since the bus differential trip is an emergency trip this signal will not be bypassed.
B. Incorrect. Plausible since both conditions result in the trip of the diesel during normal (Non-emergency) start conditions; however this is incorrect since the diesel started from an emergency start signal due to the undervoltage condition on the 1A-SA Safety Bus which results in all non-emergency trips being bypassed therefore only the bus differential trip is active.
C. Incorrect. Plausible since this condition will result in the trip of the diesel during normal (Non-emergency) start conditions; however this is incorrect since the diesel started from an emergency start signal due to the undervoltage condition on the 1A-SA Safety Bus which results in all non-emergency trips being bypassed therefore only the bus differential trip is active.

A. prevent a possible undervoltage battery charger trip B. check for DC bus grounds before energizing the charger C. warmup the charger internals before placing it in service D. allow the charger output filter capacitors to charge from the battery Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: When energizing a Battery Charger, the DC Output Breaker and feeder breaker to the associated Distribution Panel should be closed before energizing the charger from an AC source. This allows the output filters to become charged from the battery, and prevents drawing excessive current through the AC input rectifiers. To prevent a possible High Voltage trip, the output filters should be charged a minimum of 30 seconds before closing the AC Input Breaker.
A. Incorrect. Plausible since the Low DC Volt alarm will be recieved during this evolution; however this is incorrect because the alarm is expected to annunciate.
B. Incorrect. Plausible since the procedure has the candidate test the battery charger for grounds; however this is incorrect because the ground test is not performed until both the DC Output and AC input breakers are closed.
C. Incorrect. Plausible since the procedure has the candidate wait a minimum of 30 seconds prior to closing the AC input breaker and during this time the battery charger internal temperature is rising as a by product of I2 r losses; however this is incorrect because the reason for the 30 second minimum is to prevent an inadvertent High Voltage trip.

Given the following plant conditions:
- Post Maintenance Testing is in progress on the 1A-SA EDG. The 1A-SA EDG has been started in accordance with OP-155, Diesel Generator Emergency Power System The following problems are occurring on the EDG during the test:
- A Fuel Oil leak in the Day Tank room is lowering Day Tank level
- A mechanical failure within the EDG is causing crankcase pressure to rise
- A Jacket Water leak is lowering the Jacket Water Standpipe level
- Debris in the lube oil is clogging the lube oil filter Which ONE of the following would cause an automatic trip of the EDG?
A. Low Low Day Tank level B. High Crankcase Pressure C. Low Jacket Water level D. High Lube Oil Filter P Thursday, May 19, 2016 5:04:40 PM 135
QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: In accordance with APP-DGP-001 when an EDG is running during a NON-emergency start when EDG crankcase pressure reaches 2.5 psig the EDG will automaticaly trip.
A. Incorrect. Plausible since this is an alarm that will occur when the Fuel Oil Day Tank level decreases to 45.4% and without fuel the EDG cannot run. There isn't an automatic trip associated with low fuel and with the Low Low Day Tank Level (window E-4) alarm in there is still fuel in the day tank and the EDG will continue to run.
B. Correct.
C. Incorrect. Plausible since the lack of Jacket Water will lead to high lube oil temperatures. Lube Oil high temp (window A-1) will trip the EDG during a Non-emergency run when temperatures reach 195°F but the low level alarm for Jacket Water does not automaticaly cause an EDG trip.
Additionally, low level in the Jacket water system could lead to a low Jacket Water pressure which is also a Non-Emergency EDG trip. But, when the low level alarm comes in there is still adequate level in the Jacet Water Standpipe to support EDG cooling.
D. Incorrect. Plausible since a clogged filter could lead to low lube oil pressure which is a Non-emergency trip (window B-2 setpoint 31 psig) but high lube oil filter P is not a direct automatic Non-emergency trip.

QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: Only safety related radiation monitors provide input in to ALB-010-4-5. All safety related radiation monitors have an associated RM-23 mounted in a safety cabinet in the Main Control Room. APP-ALB-010 directs the operator to confirm the alarm using the RM-23. If a channel high or alert signal is received, the appropriate HIGH or ALERT indicator goes on and the corresponding backlighted channel display/control key BLINKS. The display/control display key can be extinguished by depressing it, but the indicator remains illuminated until the condition clears.
A. Incorrect. the first part is plausible since the RM-11 provides monitoring capability for safety related radiation monitors; however this is incorrect since the RM-11 does not have the ability to change the status of a safety related radiation monitor, RM-23 is directed to be used by APP-ALB-010. The second part is correct.
B. Incorrect. The first part is plausible see A(1). The second part is plausible since the RM-23 primary channel HIGH, ALERT and OPER lights stays solid to indicate the status of the radiation monitor; however this is not correct because the alarm status on the RM-11 will blink until the alarm is acknowledge on the RM-11 console.

- The unit is in Mode 4, performing a cooldown on RHR
- Both trains of CCW are in service
- NSW Pump 'A' is operating

A. (1) flow (2) BOTH B. (1) flow (2) ONLY 'A' C. (1) pressure (2) BOTH D. (1) pressure (2) ONLY 'A' Thursday, May 19, 2016 5:04:40 PM 141
QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: With the a shaft shear occurring on the running NSW pump the standby pump will not automatically start. The result will be lowering NSW and ESW header pressure due to the loss of NSW flow. Twenty (20) seconds after the associated ESW header pressure lowers to 53 psig the ESW pump will start and realign the header isolation valves in order to restore pressure. Because both trains of CCW are in service to support RHR operation once ESW pressure and flow are restored the system will supply both trains of CCW.
A. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since a shaft shear results in both low header flow and pressure. Additionally multiple cooling systems (Water cooled Air Handling Units) in the plant have the standby unit automatically start when a low system flow is detected; however this is incorrect because the ESW system automatic start signals are generated based on a low system pressure. The second part is correct since both CCW trains are in service.
B. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since a shaft shear results in both low header flow and pressure. Additionally multiple cooling systems (Water cooled Air Handling Units) in the plant have the standby unit automatically start when a low system flow is detected; however this is incorrect because the ESW system automatic start signals are generated based on a low system pressure.

QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: The lost of Aux Bus 1D will cause CAS to lose power. With the loss of power auto starts will be generated according to the local low pressure transducer switches. C will start at 101 psig, A at 96 psig, and B at 95 psig. 'A' A/C is supplied by emergency bus 1A1 off of the 1A-SA safety bus and has been lost until operator action is taken to restore, once the control room restores power to the 'A' A/C local operator action is require to reset the loss of power relay to restore 'A' A/C to operation.
A. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since the 'A' A/C is the CAS lead compressor in sequence 1; however this is incorrect because the loss of Auxiliary Bus 1D will disable CAS. With CAS disabled compressors will start off of their local low pressure transducer switches (see attachment 7 of AOP-017).
The second part is plausible since this would be correct if 1D had not lost power.
B.Incorrect. The first part is plausible see A(1). The second part is plausible if the candidate believes CAS Sequence 1 and Local Pressure transducer switch start orders are the same; however this is incorrect because the 'C' A/C local low pressure transducer switch will start it at 101 psig.
C. Incorrect. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible if the candidate believes that because the 'C' A/C is disconnected from CAS and it will always start prior to the 'B' A/C as in sequence 3; however this is incorrect because the CAS controller has lost power and is not able to control the

Given the following plant conditions:
- The unit is operating at 90% power after a reduction from 100% one hour ago The following indications exist for Power Range % Flux (AFD) and TI-408A, Tavg /
Tref mismatch meters.
Subsequently, the OATC manually withdraws Control Bank 'D' four steps for Tavg control.
Which ONE of the following completes the statement below describing the effects that the rod motion had on the indication for AFD and TI-408A?
The AFD indication became more (1) AND the Tavg / Tref mismatch indication became more (2) .
A. (1) positive (2) negative B. (1) positive (2) positive C. (1) negative (2) positive D. (1) negative (2) negative Thursday, May 19, 2016 5:04:40 PM 150
QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: The first part of the question deals with AFD. AFD is a measure of the difference of power produced on the upper part of the core compared to power produced in the lower part of the core. If AFD is at zero there is an equal amount of power produced in the upper and lower parts of the core. A positive value indicates that more power is being produced in the upper part of the core where a negative value indicates more power is being produced in the lower part of the core.
Currently AFD is slightly negative (~ negative 1). Control rod withdrawl at 90% will expose more of the upper part of the core to neutrons increasing the power produced in the upper portion of the core. The increase in power in the upper part of the core will cause AFD to become more positive.
The second part of the question deals with a mismatch indication between Tavg and Tref. The indication is a difference in the actual selected median Tavg minus the calculation of value of Tref which is based on Turbine first-stage pressure. As control rods are withdrawn positive reactivity is added to the core which causes the core to produce heat. The increase in heat will cause the measured median Tavg indication to rise which will cause the indication of mismatch of Tavg to Tref to become more positive.
A. Incorrect. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible if the candidate has a misconception about how the mismatch is calculated. If they have it backwards where Tref - Tavg is the readout then as Tavg is increased the mismatch will become more negative.
B. Correct.
C. Incorrect. Plausible since the unit had been ramped down from 100% to 90% one hour ago. The ramp caused a change in xenon conditions which could be thought to impact AFD causing AFD to become more negative and this negative effect could be greater than the positive effect that a rod withdrawl would have on AFD.
D. Incorrect. The first part is plausible (see C.1).
The second part is plausible (see A.2)

Given the following plant conditions:
- A Reactor startup was in progress when the Reactor trips on Source Range High Flux The following conditions existed at the time of the Reactor trip:
- The crew was verifying proper overlap and preparing to block the SR High Flux Trip
- IR Channel N-35 indicated 4 x 10-11 amps
- IR Channel N-36 indicated 7 x 10-11 amps Which ONE of the following could be the cause of the Reactor trip?
A. IR N-35 failed low causing the trip when P-6 cleared.
B. IR N-36 was overcompensated and caused the trip prior to P-6 being satisfied.
C. SR N-31 pulse height discrimination circuit failed causing an artificially high indication.
D. SR N-32 failed low causing the negative rate bistable to trip.
Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: If the pulse height discriminator is set too low, higher readings will result.
A. Incorrect. Plausible since P-6 automatically unblocks the Source Range NI's when Intermediate Range NI's are below; however this is incorrect since both IR NI's are below the 1 x 10-10 amps therefore P-6 is not yet satisfied.
B. Incorrect. Plausible since IR NI-36 is reading higher than IR NI-35 the candidate may misinterpret the system response to overcompensation; however this is incorrect because an overcompensated NI will result in a lower indicated power level.
C. Correct.
D. Incorrect. Plausible since the RPS system generates a Reactor trip signal due to a negative rate trip from the Power Range NI's; however this is incorrect because the Source Range NI's do not generate a Reactor trip due to the change in flux rate.

Because the Primary Shield Cooling fans do not automatically start the APP response is for the operator to manually start the standby Primary Shield Cooling fans.
A. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since the student has to recall the indications on the S-2 fan control switch and this alarm is associated with the white indication light; however this is incorrect because the white indication on the control switch indicates the presence of a thermal overload condition.
The second part is plausible since the containment cooling system fans E80 and 81's for CRDM cooling automatically start the standby fan if a low flow condition occurs; however this is incorrect because the S-2 and S-4 fans do not have an automatic start feature.

QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: In accordance with the FSAR, the Steam dump system is designed to perform the following 4 functions:
a) To permit the plant to accept sudden load rejections up to 50 percent external electrical load without incurring a reactor trip or lifting the main steam safety valves.
b) To remove stored energy and residual heat from the primary system following a turbine/reactor trip.
c) To maintain the plant in hot stand-by condition.
d) To permit manual controlled cooldown of the plant to the point where the Residual Heat Removal System can be placed in service.
A. Incorrect. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible since one of the steam dump system functions is to permit the plant to reject up to 50 percent external electrical load; however this is incorrect because the 50 percent load rejection is based on preventing a trip of the reactor or actuation of the MS Safety valves not prevent movement of the rod control system.
B. Correct.
C. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since the stream dumps relieve pressure from the main steam system; however this is incorrect since the steam dump system taps off the MS system down stream of the MSIVs they are not physically able to relieve SG pressure with the MSIVs shut. The second part is plausible since one of the steam dump system functions is to permit the plant to reject up to 50 percent external electrical load; however this is incorrect because the 50 percent load rejection is based on preventing a trip of the reactor or actuation of the MS Safety valves not prevent movement of the rod control system.
D. Incorrect.

A. Alarm only (no auto actions)
B. WG Decay Tank E&F to Plant Vent valve (3WG-229) will shut C. WPB Control Room HVAC System swaps to recirculation mode D. Normal WPB supply fans (S-61's & 62's) and WPB nonfiltered exhaust fans (E-59 &
- 83) trip. Emergency filtration exhaust fans (E-45, 46, 47, & 49) start Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: In accordance with AOP-005 and AOP-005-BD when rad monitor 1WV-3546 (WPB Stack 5) goes in high alarm 3WG-229, WG Decay Tanks E & F To Plant Vent Vlv should automatically shut.
A. Incorrect. Plausible since there are Plant Vent Stack rad monitors that can go into High Alarm but do not have any auto actions. Example:
RM-21AV-3509-1, Plant Vent Stack 1 WRGM can be in ALERT OR HIGH ALARM with NO auto actions. The action would be to manually start a RAB Emergency Exhaust Fan per OP-172, RAB HVAC B. Correct.
C. Incorrect. Plausible since AOP-005 guidance for a rad monitor in alarm for an affected area is to establish proper ventilation for that area (Attachment 3 step 8). Step 8.b has the MCR operators direct the Radwaste Control Room to align WPB Ventilation using OP-171, Waste Processing Building Heating and Air Conditioning. This alignment is in the recirculation mode but the alignment is not something that swaps automatically.
D. Incorrect. Plausible since RAB and FHB ventilation fans trip on High Radiation conditions and the emergency exhaust filtration automatically aligns with the start of the emergency fans. The WPB supply fans have auto trip features. But the trip signals to the supply fans are overcurrent, low temperature, low flow, or smoke detection. They do NOT trip on High Radiation from REM-1WV-3546.

Given the following plant conditions:
- The plant is operating at 75% power Subsequently the following occurs:
- Circ Water Pump C breaker trips on an overcurrent condition
- Condenser vacuum is 5.5 inches Hg and degrading
- The crew enters AOP-012, Partial Loss of Condenser Vacuum Which ONE of the following directions is the MINIMUM required in accordance with AOP-012?
A. Verify that the Turbine has Tripped.
B. Verify that the 'C' Circ Water Pump discharge valve 1CW-12 shuts.
C. Verify that the 'C' Circ Water Pump Bearing/Seal Water Pump starts.
D. Dispatch the Outside AO to shut 'C' Circ Water Pump discharge valve 1CW-12.
Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: In accordance with AOP-012, if a Circulating Water Pump trips, the associated pump discharge valve automatically shuts. The follow up actions of AOP-012 have the status of the automatic action verified using the pump and valve MCB indications.
A. Incorrect. Plausible since the vacuum has degraded past the <60% Turbine load trip setpoint of 5.0 inches Hg; however this is incorrect because the turbine load is 75% and the >60% Turbine load trip setpoint is 7.5 inches Hg.
B. Correct.
C. Incorrect. Plausible since the bearing/seal water pump on other large plant components, RCP's, Main Turbine, etc., automatically start or are continuously in-service to ensure the bearings are adequately cooled during coast down of the component; however this is incorrect because the required seal flow for the CWP's pump seals during coast down is provided by the pump discharge.
D. Incorrect. Plausible since the this is a contingency RNO action; however this is incorrect because this is only directed to be performed if the discharge valve fails to close automatically when the pump trips.

QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: OP-149, Fire Protection P&L 2 states that the Jockey, Motor Driven, and Diesel Driven Fire Pumps are normally aligned for automatic operation are are subject to start at anytime.
Notes in OP-149 identify auto start setpoints based on lowering Fire Header pressure decreases. If fire header system pressure decreases to < 90 psig (local) or < 95 psig using ERFIS the Motor Driven Fire pump starts. The Diesel Driven Fire Pump auto starts when Fire Header pressure decreases to < 73 psig (local) or < 78 psig using ERFIS with an 8 second time delay. Since Fire Header Pressure has decreased to 88 psig the Motor Driven Fire Pump should have auto started and will be RUNNING but the Diesel Driven Fire Pump auto start setpoint has not been reached so it will be OFF.
A. Incorrect. Plausible if the candidate has a misconception that both the Motor and Diesel Driven Fire Pumps auto start signals are at < 78 psig.

QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: In accordance with AD-OP-ALL-1000, Conduct Of Operation Starting or stopping plant equipment of 4 kv loads or greater that are operated from the Control Room.
(1) When starting or stopping plant equipment, Operations personnel will announce the planned activity with direction for plant personnel to stand clear of the equipment.
(2) For equipment with electrical switchgear 4 kv or greater, the announcement includes direction to stand clear of its associated electrical switchgear.
A. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since the AD-OP-ALL-1000 states Operations personnel make plant annoucements to alert personnel in the plant of changing plant conditions and the candidate may conclude that closing a 480V breaker is a change in plant conditions; however this is incorrect because AD-OP-ALL-1000 requires a plant announcement for the closing operation of a breaker that is rated greater than 4kV. The second part is plausible since breakers are located in various rooms throughout the plant, 286' RAB, 286' Turbine building, etc. the candidate may determine they are required to announce the room location of the switchgear as the minimum to be announced; however this is not correct since the minimum required in accordance with AD-OP-ALL-1000 is to announce stand clear of the switchgear not the entire switchgear room.

QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: AOP-031 has the crew verify that the Transfer Cart is parked in the FHB. The cart is currently on the Reactor side and therefore the MCR crew would direct the Fuel Handling crew to move the Transfer Cart to the Fuel Handling Building side. IF the Fuel Transfer Cart is on the Reactor side the Fuel Transfer Gate Valve 1PP-427 cannot be shut due to the design of the Fuel Transfer system at HNP.
A Correct.
B Incorrect. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible since another procedure will direct Maintenance to install and inflate the Fuel Pool gates; however this is incorrect because this is the direction that would be provided in AOP-041 for a loss of Fuel Pool Level but is not a direction from AOP-031.
C. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since the Fuel Transfer Cart can traverse from the REACTOR side or the FUEL HANDLING BUILDING side during refueling operations the candidate may misapply the required location in order to remove the cart emergency cable from the travel path of the Fuel Transfer Tube Gate Valve. However this is incorrect because the cart is required to be on the FUEL HANDLING BUILDING side of the transfer tube in order to remove the cart emergency cable from the travel path of the Fuel Transfer Tube Gate Valve. The second part of the answer is correct.

- An RCS heatup is in progress
- RCS temperature is 358°F
- 1B-SB EDG is declared INOPERABLE due to failure of the shutdown relay Which ONE of the following identifies (1) the current plant OPERATIONAL MODE and (2) the Technical Specification requirements regarding Mode changes?
A. (1) Mode 3 (2) Change to Mode 2 may be performed provided the TS 3.8.1, AC Sources -

Operating, Action Statements for 1B-SB EDG inoperability are satisfied.
D. (1) Mode 4 (2) Change to Mode 3 may NOT performed.
Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: Mode 3 is defined in Tech Spec Table 1.2 as a plant condition where the average coolant temperature is > 350°F Tavg. With an RCS Tavg of 358°F Tech Spec Mode 3 applies. Tech Spec 3.8.1.1 states that in Modes 1-4 as a minimum two seperate and independent diesel generators must be operable. With the 1B-SB EDG declared inoperable and is required to be returned to operational within 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> or the unit be placed in HSB within the next 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> (already below HSB - Mode

Since the EDG is inoperable Tech Spec 3.0.4 applies. A change of operational modes shall not be made when the conditions for the LCO are not met and the associated action requires a shutdown if they are not met within a specified time interval.
A. Incorrect. The first part is correct The second part allowing a Mode change is plausible because some Tech Specs indicate TS 3.0.4 is not applicable.
In this instance, 3.0.4 does apply, and even though action requirements are met, the LCO does not have an indefinite time requirement as defined by TS section 3.0.
B. Correct.
Thursday, May 19, 2016 5:04:41 PM 187
QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal C. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since Hot Stutdown is Mode 4, which is 350°F >
Tavg > 200°F and the temperature of 358°F is >350°F. The second part allowing a Mode change is plausible because some Tech Specs indicate TS 3.0.4 is not applicable. In this instance, 3.0.4 does apply, and even though action requirements are met, the LCO does not have an indefinite time requirement as defined by TS section 3.0.
D. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since Hot Stutdown is Mode 4, which is 350°F >
Tavg > 200°F and the temperature of 358°F is >350°F. The second part is correct as the actions are correct since they represent the wording in Tech Spec 3.0.4 which does not allow for a Mode change with an inoperable component that has an LCO with an shutdown action time.

The ASI pump will automatically start (1) after seal injection flow is lost to the RCPs.
Based on CAR-2166-B-401 Sheet 0210, with the 2-3/210A Control Relay contacts CLOSED the ASI pump will continue to run once the CS-210.1, ASI Pump is returned to the AUTO position from the START position because the (2) relay is energized.

A. (1) 2 minutes and 30 seconds (2) 49/MR B. (1) 2 minutes and 30 seconds (2) 42X C. (1) 2 minutes and 45 seconds (2) 49/MR D. (1) 2 minutes and 45 seconds (2) 42X Thursday, May 19, 2016 5:04:41 PM 190
QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: In accordance with APP-ALB-008 window 2-2 if the RCP Seal Injection flow remains below 4 gpm for 2 minutes and 30 seconds, the ASI SQUIB valves (1ASI-21 & 1ASI-22) are actuated and the ASI Pump starts 15 seconds later.
Review of CWD 2166 B-401 0210 determines in both the START and AUTO switch positions contact 5-6 is closed to energize the 42 and 42Xrelays when the 2-3/210A relay contacts 3-5 are closed. With the 2-3/210A relay contacts closed the power applied to the 42X relay will close the 42X 9-10 contacts maintaining the 42 relay energized until CS-210.1 is taken to STOP A. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since the ASI system squib valve will actuate at 2 minutes and 30 seconds after the RCP Seal injection flow is below 4 gpm; however this is incorrect because the ASI pump does not start until 2 minutes and 45 seconds have elasped. The second part is plausible since 49/MR contact is required to be closed in order for the 42 and 42X relays to be energize; however the CWD is shown in the de-energized state, therefore the 49/MR contact in the ASI Pump motor starting circuit is open when the 49/MR is energized.
B. Incorrect. The first part is plausible see A(1). The second part is correct.
C. Incorrect. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible see A(2).

Which ONE of the following is a condition that would result in excessive radiation exposure rates in the Containment (Keyway) Sump Area during a refueling outage?
A. Movement of irradiated fuel in the reactor vessel.
B. Withdrawal of the Incore Detectors from the core.
C. Draining the RCS to mid-loop prior to core off load.
D. A leak in the Auxiliary Building results in lowering Reactor Cavity level.
Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: In accordance with OP-106, This procedure provides the radiological controls and approvals required per IER 11-41, Unplanned Personnel Exposures from Highly Radioactive In-Core Components. A radiation hazard exists in the containment during operation of the incore instrumentation system and when placing the detectors in storage.
A. Incorrect. Plausible because the candidate may not understand location differences inside containment. Shielding would be provided by the Reactor Cavity water level. In addition, the distance between a worker in the sump and a fuel assembly in transit would increase as the fuel assembly was removed from the core.
B. Correct.
C. Incorrect. Plausible because the candidate may not understand location differences inside containment. Shielding would be provided by the Reactor Cavity water level. In addition, the distance between a worker in the sump and a fuel assembly in transit would increase as the fuel assembly was removed from the core.
D. Incorrect. Plausible if the candidate did not understand how this leak affects RCS level and dose rates. A leak in the Aux Building could not cause RCS level to drop below the bottom of the RCS loops. In addition, lowering cavity level would affect dose rates in the region above the vessel flange.
Someone in the sump would be in a location below the vessel flange and would be unaffected.

Which ONE of the following identifies the correct response in accordance with the EOP User's Guide?
A. STABLE because RCS subcooling is rising B. STABLE because the crew is controlling the RCS pressure reduction C. LOWERING even though RCS subcooling is rising D. LOWERING because the crew cannot control the RCS pressure reduction Thursday, May 19, 2016 5:04:41 PM 197
QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: In accordance with the EOP User's Guide RCS Pressure should be considered STABLE because RCS subcooling is rising with an operator controlled cooldown in progress.
A. Correct.
B. Incorrect. It is correct for RCS Pressure to be considered STABLE because RCS subcooling is rising with an operator controlled cooldown in progress and it is plausible to consider the RCS pressure reduction to be controlled since an controlled RCS cooldown is in prorogress however this is incorrect because no attempt to control RCS Pressure is made during a RCS cooldown.
C. Incorrect. It is plausible for RCS Pressure to be considered LOWERING since the parameter values are lowering however this is incorrect because an operator controlled cooldown in progress and with subcooling rising RCS Pressure would be considered to be stable.
D. Incorrect. It is plausible for RCS Pressure to be considered LOWERING since the parameter values are lowering however this is incorrect because an operator controlled cooldown in progress and it is plausible to consider the RCS pressure reduction to be controlled since an controlled RCS cooldown is in prorogress however this is incorrect because no attempt to control RCS Pressure is made during a RCS cooldown.

Given the following plant conditions:
- The unit is operating at 100% power
- ALB-014-1-1B, SG A NR LVL/SP HI/LO DEV alarms
- 'A' Steam Generator level is 51% and lowering
- 'B' and 'C' Steam Generator levels are 57% and stable
- FCV-478, SG A is throttling SHUT Based on these conditions which ONE of the following actions should be the MINIMUM performed in accordance with the APP-ALB-014?
A. take manual control of FCV-478, SG A and restore SG level B. perform the immediate actions of AOP-010, Feedwater Malfunctions C. wait for CRS permission before taking manual control of FCV-478, SG A D. wait for control bands and trip limits before taking manual control of FCV-478, SG A Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: In accordace with the alarm procedure for SG A narrow range level going out of normal band of 52% to 62% the operator should check steam flow and feed flow for deviation and is the assoicated SG Flow Control Valve (FCV) is not sufficiently controlling level, switch the control to manal and restore level to normal (57% narrow range)
A. Correct.
B. Incorrect. Plausible since AOP-010 provides operator actions for Feedwater Regulator Valves that are NOT properly operating in AUTO by controling SG level with the Feedwater Regular Valves in MANUAL and maintaining SG levels between 52% and 62% but the expectations found in AD-OP-ALL-1000 for procedure compliance section 5.17.2 states: Written procedures are not necessary for situations where conditions exist which may require timely actions due to failure of automatic control systems or uncertain equipment status (e.g., taking manual control of hand/auto stations, position of selector switches, ect.) Operators at HNP are trained to take manual control of the FCV for a SG that has a manfunctioning controller rather than implementing AOP-010. The guidance for taking manual control is also found in OMM-001, Operations Adminstrative Requirements, Attachment 13. "During a transient situation, the RO/BOP may take manual control of a controller to prevent a transient or trip. The CRS will provide necessary guidance to the RO/BOP to stabilize the plant per this procedure for the affected controller. " Student text for SG Water Level Control states:
AOP-010 - A failure of the SGWLCS can result in inadequate feed flow.

QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal or controller failure, the operator can take manual control per OMM-001 guidance.
C. Incorrect. Plausible since in accordance with AD-OP-ALL-1000 section 5.18.3, 2.b (1) Controllers/components and bypasses should be placed in manual control using the following guidance: Prior to taking manual actions, if known, the abnormal condition and the cause shall be communicated to the CRS. Although there is a communication from the individual that is placing the automatic controller to manual there isn't a need to wait for permission from the CRS to do so. In accordance with OMM-001, Operations Administrative Requirements section 5.1.11 2, the CRS shall direct control limits whenever controllers are placed in manual. The RO and BOP must understand these limits and implement the actions when the limits are reached. These actions must be taken without delay. This does not imply that CRS permission is required to initially place the controller in manual to prevent a transient or trip.
OMM-001, Attachment 13. "During a transient situation, the RO/BOP may take manual control of a controller to prevent a transient or trip. The CRS will provide necessary guidance to the RO/BOP to stabilize the plant per this procedure for the affected controller. "
D. Incorrect. Plausible since in accordance with AD-OP-ALL-1000 section 5.18.3, 2.c (1) Placing control systems in manual may require periodic manual adjustments in order to maintain desired plant conditions. The following shall be discussed with the CRS prior to placing any portion of a control system in manual: (b) control bands.

ES-0.1, Reactor Trip Response, Rev. 2 AOP-002, Emergency Boration, Rev. 24 Handout: Use simulator copy of EOP-ES-0.1 and AOP-002 Time Critical Task: No Validation Time: 8 minutes Critical Step Justification The operator must start one of the two BA pumps. A boric acid pump has to be running to deliver boric acid flow. The Boric Acid Tank provides the most preferred source of borated water for emergency Step 3 boration. If a Boric Acid Pump cannot be started, the RNO directs the operator forward to the step for establishing the flow path from the RWST.
After the emergency boration flow path cannot be established due to 1CS-278 failing to open the operator must establish an alternate boration valve lineup to establish a boration. Flow is established from Step 5 the BA Tank via a BAT pump through FCV-113A and FCV-113B to CSIP suction. This provides a method for the control room operator to use the preferred flow path if 1CS-278 cannot be used.
A flow rate of > 30 gpm ensures that the boron concentration and Step 6 required flow of the action statements of LCOs 3.1.1.1 and 3.1.1.2 are being met.

The following setup information is how to develop the exam IC. Since the JPM recreates a pressure locked valve (1SI-107 will not open under pressure) a CAEP and several triggers need to be created.
- Initial Simulator IC was IC-19
- You will need to create a CAEP file and use this file to allow the candidate to take the switch for 1SI-107 to OPEN without the valve opening when tried on the first attempt. The CAEP file will delete the malfunction that has the valve wheel engaged and set to 0 (shut). I named the CAEP 2016NRCJPMcCAEP. In the future you can name it whatever you desire. Simulator exam security did not allow me to leave this CAEP in the CAEP folder so I saved it to my portable hard drive and loaded it for validation and the examination.

Appendix C Page 2 of 12 Form ES-C-1 Worksheet Task Standard: Determine the required core exit temperature based on the lowest ruptured SG pressure then cooldown the RCS to this target temperature utilizing the Steam Dumps and SG PORVs.
Required Materials: None General
References:
EOP-E-3, Steam Generator Tube Rupture, Rev. 1 Handout: Use simulator copy of EOP-E-3 Time Critical Task: No Validation Time: 15 minutes Critical Step Justification Critical to determine the required core exit temperature is 495°F by identifying that ERFIS is NOT available and the lowest ruptured SG pressure (C SG) is 900 to 1000 psig. Without the correct temperature the Step 2 cooldown will be either stopped too soon which will require additionally cooldown later OR later than required and delay making progress through E-3.
Critical to place Steam Dumps to Steam Pressure mode to allow manual Step 5 control of Steam dumps to establish a Max Rate RCS cooldown.
Critical to momentarily place Both Steam Dump Interlock Bypass Switches Step 7 To INTLK BYP if these switches are not taken to this position the Steam Dumps will not open.
Critical to dump steam from intact SGs to condenser at Maximum Rate Step 9 which will decrease RCS temperature which will enable the operator to depressurize the RCS to equal the ruptured SG pressure.
Critical to identify that the MAX RATE cooldown has stopped and the Steam Dumps have closed. Then reestablishes Max cooldown using SG PORVs.
Step 10 If this is not recognized then the RCS will not be able to be depressurized to the ruptured SG pressure to stop the tube leakage.
Critical to stop the RCS cooldown by securing the B and C SG PORVs prior to either Core Exit TCs reaching 480°F or 470°F if using Thot Step 12 indications for cooldown (due to readability of scale) to prevent RCS overcooling which would delay the RCS depressurization to ruptured SG pressure.
Setting the SG PORV controllers correctly prevents a delay in RCS Step 13 depressurization to ruptured SG pressure.

EOP-E-0, Loss Of Reactor or Secondary Coolant Rev. 4 Handout: Simulator copy of EOP-E-0 Time Critical Task: No Validation Time: 10 minutes CRITICAL STEP JUSTIFICATION The RCP trip criteria should be monitored continuously while in EOP-E-0. Securing ALL 3 RCPs when EOP-E-0 foldout RCP Trip Step 1 Criteria is met is a required operator action to reduce the amount of RCS mass pumped out of the break.
Starting one train of Containment Spray system will reduce Containment pressure. The combination of a CT pump running and the Containment Step 11 Ventilation system prevents the Containment from exceeding the design pressure limit during a LBLOCA.
An automatic Phase B has occurred when Containment Pressure exceeded 10 psig. A Phase B actuation causes all CCW cooling to the Step 12 RCPs to automatically isolate. The RCPs cannot operate for prolonged periods when CCW flow to the RCP heat exchangers does not exist.
Securing the RCPs will prevent motor damage due to excessive heat.

EOP ECA-0.0 Step 9 Directs energizing AC Emergency Buses from Offsite Power using Attachment 1 The attachment allows flexibility of energizing Emergency Bus A with steps 2-8 or B with steps 9-15. There isnt a fault indicated on either bus so a candidate should NOT be suspecting that either bus has a fault. Butyou never know.
Since the JPM is going to be ran as an ALTERNATE PATH the candidate has the choice of attempting to re-energize either bus first. Either choice will yield a failure of energizing the first bus Evaluator Note: but will have a success path for energizing the second bus.
Since there could be a decision made by the candidate on which bus to restore first the JPM has a Part A (steps 2-8) and Part B steps 9-15).
IF the candidate starts with trying to energize the A bus (more than likely) use Part A of the JPM.
IF the candidate starts with trying to energize the B bus (least likely - maybe suspects a fault due to failure of EDG B to start) use Part B.

Event 1 The first evolution for the crew is to commence a power reduction at 4 DEH Units / min from 100% to 95% in preparations of securing the A Heater Drain Pump. It is expected that the SRO will conduct a reactivity brief.
Verifiable actions: The RO will borate as necessary to lower power and monitor automatic operation of rod control. The BOP will operate the DEH Main Turbine controls as necessary to reduce turbine load. The BOP will secure the A Heater Drain pump.
Event 2 Failure of the Tref Processor (fails low). The crew should enter AOP-001 and carry out the immediate actions.
Verifiable actions: The OATC will perform the immediate actions of AOP-001 by verifying that
<2 rods are dropped (no rods have dropped), place Rod Control in MANUAL and then verify no rod motion. With concurrence from the SRO the OATC will restore Tave to pre-failure conditions by withdrawing the rods in manual.
Event 3 SG B controlling level transmitter LT-486 fails low. Flow and level will rise as observed on B SG FI-486, FI-487 and NR level instruments LI-483, LI-484 and LI-485.
Verifiable actions: The BOP should report and respond to annunciator ALB-014-5-3A Steam Gen B NR Low Level. The BOP should take manual control of the B SG flow control valve and lower the output of the M/A station to restore level to 57% Narrow Range.
The SRO should provide trip limits and level bands IAW OMM-001 Attachment 13. The SRO directs the implementation of OWP-RP-06.

Event 4 Failure of VCT level transmitter LT-115 (low). This failure will cause an automatic make up to the VCT to initiate. The crew should identify the failed level transmitter then enter AOP-003, Malfunction of Reactor Makeup Control. There are no immediate actions associated with AOP-003.
Verifiable actions: The OATC will respond to the Reactor Makeup Control system malfunction and place the Reactor Makeup Water Control Switch to STOP. This action will secure the unneeded VCT makeup caused by the level transmitter failure. The SRO will contact Maintenance to investigate and repair the failure.
Event 5 C Accumulator nitrogen leak causes pressure to decrease until annunciator ALB 01-9-1 alarms.
Verifiable actions: The crew should respond to the low pressure condition and restore the Accumulator pressure to normal. The OATC will verify open 1SI-287, ACCUMULATORS &
PRZ PORV N2 SUPPLY then OPEN the ACCUM N2 SUPPLY/VENT for the C Accumulator:
1SI-297 for ACCUMULATOR C N2 Supply & Vent.
Tech Spec Evaluation: The SRO should declare the C Accumulator inoperable per Tech Spec 3.5.1, due to being connected to Non-Safety piping (a one hour action statement in Modes 1 through 3 above 1000 psig). Additionally, The SRO should evaluate Tech Spec 3.5.1 for Accumulator pressure if pressure gets below Tech Spec operability limit.

Event 6 DEH pump shaft shears and auto start failure of the standby DEH pump. When DEH pressure decreases to < 1600 psig annunciator ALB-020-4-2B EH Fluid Low Press will alarm.
Verifiable actions: The BOP should manually start the standby DEH pump prior to system pressure reducing to <1500 psig. If the standby pump is not started prior to DEH pressure decreasing to < 1500 psig they should identify that the standby pump auto start feature has also malfunctioned. Once the standby pump is started DEH system pressure will return to normal.
With DEH pressure decreasing the crew should dispatch an Aux Operator to investigate the DEH system for indications of leakage or pump failure.
- NOTE: IF the crew does not respond to this event by starting the standby DEH pump they would enter AOP-038, Rapid Downpower when DEH fluid pressure drops to
<1500 psig. Entering AOP-038 is ONLY appropriate IF the standby pump is not available. IF the crew fails to start the standby DEH pump system pressure will continue to slowly decrease. When system pressure decreases to 1150 psig an automatic Turbine Trip on Auto Stop Oil Pressure will occur. (ALB-018 window 3-4). Without any actions the crew would create an unanticipated critical task by allowing the Turbine trip to occur which would then cause an automatic Reactor Trip (Reactor Trip Turbine Trip P-7).
(See Note after critical task justification statements for details on unanticipated critical tasks.)
Event 7 - MAJOR (Leading to Loss of Heat Sink)
Main Feedwater Pump A trips with Reactor Power > 90%. The crew should respond to ALB-016-1-4, FW Pump A/B O/C Trip -Gnd or Bkr Fail to Close and AOP-010, Feedwater Malfunctions and perform the immediate actions.
Verifiable actions: The OATC should manually trip the Reactor IAW AOP-010 actions for loss of a Feed Water pump with initial Reactor power above 90%.
Two minutes after the A MFW pump trips the B MFW pump will trip. The crew should recognize that the second pump has tripped by MCB annunciators, pump indications and Steam Generator level changes.

Event 8 Main Turbine fails to automatically trip. In accordance with EOP-E-0, Reactor Trip or Safety Injection immediate action 2 the BOP should identify the automatic trip failure of the Main Turbine due to none of the Turbine Throttle valves indicating closed.
Verifiable actions: The BOP should manually trip the Turbine in the preferred order: Turning the MCB Turbine trip switch to trip (this action if performed will be successful). If this action is NOT performed RNO actions would be: depress the Turbine Manual pushbutton on DEH then simultaneously depress the Fast Action and GV Lower push buttons or shut the MSIVs. IF the follow up actions are performed without first manually tripping the Turbine using the trip switch it does not constitute a failure since the Turbine will be tripped but the trip would be unnecessarily delayed.
Event 9 MD AFW Pump A trips immediately upon starting.
Verifiable actions: The BOP will identify a MD AFW pump trip by annunciator ALB017-5-4, Aux Feedwater Pump A Trip or Close Ckt Trouble alarm. At this time IF the TD AFW pump has not auto started on SG low levels the BOP should determine that starting the TD AFW pump is required and open both MS-70 and MS-72 steam supply valves to the TD AFW pump to maintain AFW flow to the Steam Generators.
Event 10 Event 10: TDAFW Pump trips, (timing controlled by Lead Evaluator) while implementing EOP-ES-0.1, Reactor Trip Response. Annunciator ALB-017-7-4, Aux Feedwater Pump Turbine Trip.
Once EOP-ES-0.1 is entered the first step to Implement Function Restoration Procedures as required. A RED path will exist for EOP FR-H.1, Response To Loss of Secondary Heat Sink due to a loss of all Feedwater flow to the SGs (< 210 KPPH) and Narrow Range levels in ALL SGs < 25%. Once identified the crew should make transition to EOP-FR-H.1.
Verifiable actions: The OATC will secure ALL RCPs while the BOP continues efforts to restore AFW flow. The OATC will depressurize the RCS and block auto SI signals. The BOP will depressurize one SG to < 500 psig then establish Condensate flow to the SGs.
The scenario ends when Condensate flow is established and verified to one SG.

SUMMARY
- 2016 NRC EXAM SCENARIO 1 (continued)
CRITICAL TASK JUSTIFICATION:
- 1. Initiate a MANUAL Turbine trip (Prior to the receipt of the Low Steam Line Pressure SI signal)
Without tripping the main Turbine adverse consequences or significant degradation in the mitigative capability of the plant will occur. Taking actions will prevent the actuation of the ECCS. If the ECCS is allowed to actuate it will fill the RCS and challenge the RCS pressure boundary by challenging the Pressurizer PORVs and code Safety valves. Also, WOG ERG-Based Critical task E-0, Manually trip the main Turbine before a severe (Orange Path) challenge develops to either the Subcriticality or the Integrity CSF or before transition to EOP-ECA-2.1, Uncontrolled Depressurization of ALL Steam Generators) whichever happens first.
- 2. Establish Condensate flow to the SGs before RCS bleed and feed required Failure to establish feedwater flow to any SG results in the crews having to rely upon the lower-priority action of establishing RCS bleed and feed to minimize core uncovery. This constitutes incorrect performance that fails to prevent degradation of any barrier to fission product release. The analyses presented in the ERG Background Document for FR-H.1 demonstrate that a complete loss of heat sink occurs when the SG inventories deplete (dry out). Unless some form of SG inventory is restored, the SG dryout deteriorates primary-to-secondary heat transfer, allowing core decay heat to increase the RCS temperature and pressure. The increasing RCS pressure automatically forces the pressurizer PORVs to open, which creates a small-break LOCA and simultaneously degrades the RCS fission-product barrier. As long as the RCS pressure remains high, the flow out the PORVs exceeds the ECCS flow into the RCS, which depletes RCS inventory. Eventually the core starts to uncover, degrading the core cooling CSF.
Once the core is uncovered, fuel temperatures increase rapidly until severe fuel damage occurs, unless some form of core cooling is restored. Fuel over-heating constitutes severe degradation of a fission-product barrier (fuel matrix/clad). Establishing feedwater flow into the SGs offers the most effective recovery action to restore the heat sink. The introduction of feedwater flow immediately restores SG inventory and re-establishes primary-to-secondary heat transfer, decreasing RCS pressure and cooling the core. The RCS pressure decrease then precludes the opening of the PORVs and degradation of the RCS barrier.
Note: An unanticipated critical task may be created in a scenario should an applicants action or lack of action cause an unexpected RPS or ESFAS actuation. A critical task may be assigned and graded as unsatisfactory even if corrected by another team member prior to the unanticipated RPS/ESFAS actuation. Should the applicant self-correct the action or inaction prior to the unanticipated plant response, a critical task failure should not be assigned to the applicant.

SUMMARY
- 2016 NRC EXAM SCENARIO 2 (continued)
Event 1 The crew performs a power escalation IAW GP-005. The previous crew were increasing Turbine load at 2 DEH units per minute. The load dispatcher has requested that when the power increase continues that the ramp rate is increased to 4 DEH units per minute.
Verifiable actions: For this reactivity manipulation, it is expected that the SRO will conduct a reactivity brief. The RO will dilute the RCS as necessary per the reactivity plan and monitor auto operation of rod control to raise Reactor power. The BOP will operate the DEH Main Turbine controls to first increase the Turbine ramp rate from 2 DEH units to 4 DEH units per minute then ensure the controls are set correctly prior to ramping the Turbine up to full power.
Event 2 Power Range Channel N-44 fails high. After the crew has placed the B train of Containment Fan Coolers in service PR channel N-44 will fail high. This will cause rods to start stepping in at max speed. The crew should identify that a Power Range channel failure is the cause for the automatic rod motion and enter AOP-001, Malfunction of Rod Control and Indication System.
Verifiable actions: The OATC will perform the immediate actions of AOP-001 by verifying that <2 rods are dropped (no rods have dropped), place Rod Control in MANUAL and then verify no rod motion. With concurrence from the SRO the OATC will restore Tave to pre-failure conditions by withdrawing the rods in manual.

Event 5 Total Loss of Cooling Banks on the UAT 1A. This failure will require the crew to implement AOP-039, Startup and Unit Auxiliary Transformer Trouble entry (no immediate actions). The BOP should review annunciator ALB-022-3-1, Unit Aux Xfer-A Trouble response and dispatch an operator to locally investigate the cause of the alarm.
The report from the AO will be that all transformer cooling is lost. The crew should recognize this meets the entry conditions of AOP-039, Startup And Unit Auxiliary Transformer Trouble. The crew should monitor EFRIS to determine the UAT 1A temperature is approaching the limit that will require the transformer to be unloaded within 30 minutes.
Verifiable actions: The CRS should direct the BOP to transfer the house loads from the UAT 1A to the SUT 1A using OP-156.02, AC Electrical Distribution. The BOP will transfer loads and the SRO will prepare OMM-001, Operations Administrative Requirements, Attachment 5 Equipment Problem Checklist for the failure.
Event 6 - MAJOR - Main Steam Line Break outside of Containment Main Steam Line Break outside of Containment Verifiable Actions: The crew will trip the Reactor, initiate SI and enter EOP E-0, Reactor Trip or Safety Injection.
Major Event: The crew will transition from E-0 to E-2 to EOP-ECA-2.1, Uncontrolled Depressurization of All Steam Generators. ECA-2.1 will also direct shutting air to RAB 261. ECA-2.1 will direct that feed flow is lowered to 12.5 KPPH to each SG. This will cause a RED PATH for FR-H.1 and require the crew to transition into the Loss Of Heat Sink procedure. Since the low flow (< 210 KPPH) was initiated by the operators and a flow rate of > 210 KPPH is available the crew will transition back into ECA-2.1. After returning into ECA-2.1 a cue will be provided to the Simulator Operator to shut the A and C MSIVs. This action will simulate that the air isolation was successful and 2 of the 3 MSIVs shut. Based on ECA-2.1 foldout back to E-2 IF any SG pressure rises at any time, THEN GO TO E-2, Step 1.
With 2 MSIVs shut the crew will observe a pressure rise in the 2 SGs and return to E-2.

Verifiable Actions: The BOP will attempt to perform a manual Main Steam Isolation by actuating the Main Steam Line Isolation switch. The MSIVs will NOT close from this actuation. The BOP will then attempt to close the MSIVs using the individual switches on the MCB. Again, the MSIVs will fail to close. After the crew continues in E-0 they will transition to EOP E-2, Faulted Steam Generator Isolation, they dispatch an AO to locally shut the instrument air supply to RAB 261 (this will isolate air to the MSIVs in an effort to shut them when auto and manual isolation does not work from the MCB). This will not initially be successful.
Event 9 The AFW Auto Isolation for the B SG will not occur.
Verifiable Actions: The BOP will manually isolate AFW flow to the B Steam Generator from the MDAFW Pump and the TDAFW Pump by shutting the associated isolation valves.
The scenario will be terminated at the lead Evaluators discretion following transition from EOP-ECA-2.1 back to EOP-E-2.

SUMMARY
- 2016 NRC EXAM SCENARIO 2 (continued)
CRITICAL TASK JUSTIFICATION:
- 1. Control AFW flow to minimize RCS cooldown - prior to a severe (ORANGE path) challenge develops to the Integrity Critical Safety Function The crew must reduce and control the AFW flow rate to a maximum of 12.5 KPPH when directed by EOP ECA-2.1 when all SGs are faulted.
Failure to control the AFW flow rate to the SGs leads to an unnecessary and avoidable severe challenge to the integrity CSF. Also, failure to perform the critical task increases the challenges to the subcriticality CSF beyond those irreparably introduced by the plant conditions.
If AFW flow rate is not controlled, the cooldown transient for Reactor vessel inlet temperature will result in an ORANGE path challenge to the integrity CSF, especially after RCPs are tripped. Although the performance standard for this task is tied to the integrity CSF, the challenge to other CSFs is exacerbated by failure to perform the critical task. The other affected CSF would be subcriticality (since the steam break is located outside Containment the Containment CSF would not be challenged).
Failure to control the AFW flow rate, means that the blowdown from all SGs continues at a higher rate than it would if the crew performs the critical task. This continuation of the blowdown at a higher-than-necessary rate significantly worsens the power excursion. It constitutes a challenge to the subcriticality CSF beyond that irreparably introduced by the plant conditions.
- 2. Manually isolate MSIVs on SG A and C prior to a severe (ORANGE path) challenge develops to the Integrity Critical Safety Function NOTE: This critical task will be accomplished by first attempting to manually actuate a Main Steam Line Actuation when the automatic actuation failed then attempting to manually shut the MSIV via MCB switches. The MSIVs will not shut via the switches.
Directions will be provided to an Auxiliary Operator to isolate the Instrument Air to the MSIVs. IF the Aux Operator is dispatched the A and C MSIV will shut and the task will be successful.
Failure to close the MSIVs causes challenges to CSFs such an omission constitutes a failure by the crew to demonstrate (the ability to) recognize a failure of an automatic actuation of an ESF system or component. They should take one or more actions that would prevent a challenge to plant safety. Uncontrolled depressurization of all SGs causes an excessive rate of RCS cooldown, well beyond the conditions typically analyzed in the FSAR. The excessive cooldown rate creates large thermal stresses in the reactor pressure vessel and causes rapid insertion of a large amount of positive reactivity.
Note: An unanticipated critical task may be created in a scenario should an applicants action or lack of action cause an unexpected RPS or ESFAS actuation. A critical task may be assigned and graded as unsatisfactory even if corrected by another team member prior to the unanticipated RPS/ESFAS actuation. Should the applicant self-correct the action or inaction prior to the unanticipated plant response, a critical task failure should not be assigned to the applicant.

SUMMARY
- 2016 NRC EXAM SCENARIO 3 Low power scenario - Turnover to crew is the unit startup on hold. The plant is in Mode 2 with Reactor power less than 5%. Power ascension is on hold until secondary chemistry parameters are within limits and 1SI-3 and the B Boric Acid pump are restored to service. At the conclusion of last shift the B Condensate Booster pump oil system leak repairs and PMT were completed and the clearance was removed. The pump is ready to be returned to service. When the crew takes the shift the expectation is to start the B Condensate Booster pump in accordance with OP-134, Condensate System, Section 5.6. After the pump is running they will hold power until secondary chemistry and the clearances are lifted on 1SI-3 and B BA pump. They should prepare to continue with GP-005, Power Operation, to obtain rated power conditions.
The following equipment is under clearance:
- B Normal Service Water Pump is under clearance for shaft inspection.

Upon turnover and assuming the shift the BOP will start the B Condensate Booster pump in accordance with OP-134, Condensate System, Section 5.6 Second Condensate Booster Pump Start up.
Event 1 Start B Condensate Booster Pumps for short term 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> reliability run.
Verifiable Action: The BOP will zero out the B Condensate Booster Pump M/A station, open the discharge and recirc valve for the pump then start the B Condensate Booster Pump. After the pump is running the BOP will increase B pump speed and place the controller in Automatic.
After the B Condensate Booster pump is in operation the crew will still be on startup hold but should have evaluated and discussed raising power IAW GP-005 to prepare to place the Main Feedwater Regulating valves in service.
Event 2 Trip of AH-39 Containment Fan Coil Unit fan with back up auto start failure.
Verifiable Action: The failure will cause annunciator ALB-029 4-5 Containment Fan Coolers AH-39 Low Flow-O/L to alarm. The crew should identify that the standby fan did not auto start and start the standby fan. The SRO will complete OMM-001 Attachment 5 and request assistance from the WCC center.
Event 3 Letdown Temperature Controller fails - LD/Diversion Valve fails to bypass demineralizers. This failure will cause temperature controller TK-144 output to decrease to zero. Without cooling to the letdown heat exchanger, temperatures observed on TI-143 will increase. At 135°F annunciator ALB-007-3-2, Demin Flow Diversion High Temp will alarm.
Verifiable Action: The OATC will respond in accordance with the alarm procedure for ALB 007-3-2. The OATC should identify that the divert valve to the VCT has failed to respond and report the failure to the SRO. The OATC should manually bypass the CVCS Demineralizers with 1CS-50 (TCV-143), then take manual control of TK-144 to restore letdown temperature to normal Harris 2016 NRC EXAM Scenario 3 Rev. 2

Event 3 (continued)
The SRO should provide a temperature band between 110°F to 120°F to the OATC in accordance with AD-OP-ALL-1000, Conduct of Operations, for operation of components in manual. (Temperature band guidance can be found in OP-107, Chemical Volume And Control). The CVCS Demineralizers should remain bypassed pending an evaluation for continued resin use. The SRO will complete OMM-001 Attachment 5 and request assistance from the WCC center.
Event 4 Component Cooling Water system leak - requiring AOP-014, Loss of Component Cooling Water entry and manual makeup to maintain level. A CCW leak in the running pump suction header will develop. The leak will be within CCW Surge Tank makeup capability.
Verifiable Action: The crew should identify the leak by observation of MCB indications for CCW Surge Tank level or MCB annunciators based on CCW Surge Tank low level.
The OATC will respond to the CCW Surge Tank level change and/or alarm and enter AOP-014, LOSS OF COMPONENT COOLING WATER. The OATC will maintain CCW Surge Tank level in the normal operating range by opening the Demin water make up valve 1DW-15, on the MCB. After dispatching an AO and locally isolating the leak the OATC will then start the standby B CCW pump and secure the running A CCW pump in accordance with OP-145, Component Cooling Water, then isolate the leak.
The SRO will complete OMM-001 Attachment 5 and request assistance from the WCC center.
Tech Spec Evaluation: The SRO should evaluate TS 3.7.3. TS 3.5.2 and TS 3.0.3 (both trains of ECCS INOPERABLE).

Event 5 Failure of the B SG PORV fails partially OPEN in AUTO and MANUAL - The B SG PORV pressure instrument will fail high causing the PORV to open. Annunciator ALB-014-8-5 Computer Alarm Steam Generators will alarm and status of the PORV position can be observed on the MCB red/green PORV indication status lights. When the operator attempts to shut the valve the it will remain open requiring local action to isolate the penetration.
Verifiable Action: The BOP should respond to indications and depress the manual pushbutton for PK-308B1 and lower the output to zero.
Tech Spec Evaluation: The SRO should evaluate TS 3.6.3, Containment Isolation Valves and PLP-106, Technical Specification Equipment List Program and Core Operating Limits Report. IF the Tech Specs are not referred to during the scenario, then (if required) ask a follow up question at the end of the scenario dealing with the LCO.

SUMMARY
- 2016 NRC EXAM SCENARIO 3 (continued)
Event 6 RCP A high vibration. During this event the A RCP vibrations will begin to increase and over 3 minutes peak at 28 mils shaft. Note: the shaft vibration instrumentation reads up to 30 mils. The crew will respond to the A RCP malfunction by either identifying rising vibrations or when ALB-010-1-5, RCP-A Trouble alarms. The crew should see the A RCP vibration probe readings are increasing. The crew should enter AOP-018, Reactor Coolant Pump Abnormal Conditions and perform the immediate actions of checking any CSIP running (YES). Vibrations will continue to increase and exceed AOP-018 Attachment 1 RCP trip criteria of 20 mils shaft.
Verifiable Action: The OATC will perform a manual Reactor trip and secure the A RCP and associated PRZ spray valve after E-0 immediate actions are completed.
The crew will then transition from EOP E-0 to ES-0.1, Reactor Trip Response. The Lead Examiner can allow the crew to stabilize the plant then have the Simulator Operator insert the next event (Small Break LOCA).
Event 7 - Major - Small Break LOCA SBLOCA inside Containment (Loop A)
The crew should recognize a rapid decrease in Pressurizer level and RCS pressure.
If the crew responds quickly to the event they may manually actuate a Safety Injection based on ES-0.1 foldout criteria of not being able to maintain Pressurizer level > 5% or RCS subcooling < 10°F. If they do not respond quickly an Automatic Safety Injection will occur. The crew will then transition from ES-0.1 back to E-0, Reactor Trip or Safety Injection. They will again carry out immediate actions of E-0.
Event 8 Failure of BIT outlet valve 1SI-4 to open requiring alternate high head injection flow path use. 1SI-4 will fail to automatically open with the Safety Injection signal and cannot be manually opened from the MCB switch. Additionally, 1SI-3 was under clearance and cannot be opened from the MCB due to control power being removed from the breaker.
In order to obtain Safety Injection flow the crew will have to use the alternate high head injection flow path as directed by E-0 RNO actions.
Verifiable Action: The OATC will OPEN alternate high head Safety Injection to cold legs valve 1SI-52 SA and then identify Safety Injection flow exceeding 200 gpm.
Harris 2016 NRC EXAM Scenario 3 Rev. 2
Appendix D Scenario Outline Form ES-D-1 HARRIS 2016 NRC EXAM SCENARIO 3 SCENARIO
SUMMARY
- 2016 NRC EXAM SCENARIO 3 (continued)
Event 8 (continued)
Establish SI flow prior to securing RCPs when EOP-E-0 foldout requires them to be secured. Shortly after entering E-0, the crew should recognize that the RCS pressure is low enough to meet Foldout Criteria for securing all RCPs but there is no flow indicated on FI-943 (normal SI flow indication). The crew will have to establish SI flow by opening the alternate high head Safety Injection to cold legs valve 1SI-52 SA.
Verifiable Action: After the OATC opens 1SI-52 SA adequate flow (> 200 gpm) will be indicated on FI-940 (alternate SI flow indication). Once flow is verified the low press and SI flow criteria will be met and the OATC will then STOP the B and C RCPs.
Event 9 Failure of automatic Main Steam Line Isolation to occur when Containment pressure exceeds 3 psig. As the Small Break LOCA continues to flow RCS to the Containment the pressure in the Containment will continue to rise. An automatic Main Steam Isolation signal is generated when Containment pressure is > 3.0 psig. The crew will have shut the MSIVs due to the cooldown encountered from securing the A RCP but the MSIV before seat drain valves (1MS-231, 1MS-266, 1MS-301) will remain OPEN. The MCB switch for manual actuation of MSLI will NOT function.
Verifiable Action: The BOP will have to manually shut from the individual MCB switches for each MSIV before seat drain valve. These valves can be verified that they are not in the correct position by review the Safeguards panel on ERFIS (after a MSLI actuation).
Event 7 (continued)
After making transitions from E-0 to E-1 to ES-1.2 the crew will determine that the RCS cool down rate exceeded 100°F/HR and will have to wait prior to reducing RCS temperature further. The scenario ends when the crew has determined that the 100°F/HR cool down rate has been exceed.
Harris 2016 NRC EXAM Scenario 3 Rev. 2
Appendix D Scenario Outline Form ES-D-1 HARRIS 2016 NRC EXAM SCENARIO 3 CRITICAL TASK JUSTIFICATION:
Failure of the crew to manually align Safety Injection flow through the alternate high head injection flow path results in a degradation of the capacity of the ECCS systems. The only available makeup water source during this event is the high pressure safety injection from the CSIPs. Until the alternate high head safety injection flow is aligned the safety margin of the plant is significantly reduced and may result in irreparable damage to the reactor core.
The acceptable results obtained in the FSAR analysis of a small-break LOCA are predicated on the assumption of minimum ECCS pumps injection. The analysis assumes that a minimum pumped ECCS flow rate, which varies with RCS pressure, is injected into the core. The flow rate values assumed for minimum pumped injection are based on operation of one each of the following ECCS pumps: Charging/SI pump, high-head SI pump and low-head SI pump.
Operation of this minimum required complement of ECCS injection pumps is consistent with the FSAR assumption that only minimum safeguards is actuated.
- 2. Manually trip all RCPs within 10 minutes of reaching RCP Trip Criteria of > 200 gpm SI Flow with < 1400 psig RCS Pressure Securing RCPs during a SB LOCA event will prevent depleting the RCS to a critical inventory by pumping more mass through the break than would occur if the RCP operation were ceased. (Critical inventory is defined as the amount of inventory remaining in the RCS when the break completely uncovers and the break flow changes from a mixture of liquid and steam to all steam.) The LOCA event in this scenario is a SB LOCA that requires the RCPs to be secured when E-0 foldout conditions are met. IF the crew continues to allow the RCPs to operate due to lack of establishment of SI flow of > 200 gpm then RCS inventory will continue to deplete. Manually tripping the RCPs before depletion below the critical inventory conservatively ensures that Peak Clad Temperature remains below 2200°F. This action should be accomplished within 10 minutes of RCP Trip Criteria of > 200 gpm SI Flow with < 1400 psig RCS Pressure and prior to transitioning out of EOP-E-0.
Note: An unanticipated critical task may be created in a scenario should an applicants action or lack of action cause an unexpected RPS or ESFAS actuation. A critical task may be assigned and graded as unsatisfactory even if corrected by another team member prior to the unanticipated RPS/ESFAS actuation. Should the applicant self-correct the action or inaction prior to the unanticipated plant response, a critical task failure should not be assigned to the applicant.

QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: At 0707 a valid Reactor Trip signal was generated but the Reactor Trip did not occur until 0715. The time that the CRS should use for "Time After Reactor Trip" is 29 minutes (0744 to 0715) and NOT the time that a Reactor Trip signal was generated but was ineffective in opening the Reactor Trip breakers. Using EOP ECA-1.1 Attachment 1 the time after a Reactor Trip of 29 minutes falles between the 25 to 30 minute area which will require a minimum SI flow of 425 gallons. IF the CRS used time from Reactor Trip signal (0707) a lower flow rate of 400 gallons would be used and would NOT satisfy the minimum SI flow rate required needed to remove decay heat.
The WOG description for EOP ECA-1.1 when determining the minium SI flow states that the reason for calculating this minimum SI flow is to match decay heat in order to further decrease SI pump flow and delay RWST depletion.
A. Incorrect. The first part is plausible if the candiate uses the time that a Reactor Trip signal was generated which would yeild a time of 37 minutes after a Reactor Trip and a minimum SI flow from Attachment 1 of 400 gpm. The second part is plausible since this is backgound document information for a Large Break LOCA but this reason is for RVLIS SI termination criteria.
B. Incorrect. The first part is plausible see A(1). The second part is correct.
C. Incorrect. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible see A(2).
D. Correct.

QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: To comply with Technical Specification 3.9.8.1 LCO the 'A' RHR Pump must be started. The requirement that at least one residual heat removal (RHR) loop be in operation ensures that: (1) sufficient cooling capacity is available to remove decay heat and maintain the water in the Reactor vessel below 140°F as required during the REFUELING MODE. and (2) sufficient coolant circulation is maintained through the core to minimize the effect of a boron dilution incident and prevent boron stratification.
A. Correct.
B. Incorrect. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible because 200°F is the transition to Mode 4 where additional concerns arise.
C. Incorrect. The first part is plausible if the candidate misapplies the LCO mode of applicability and determines the actions for Mode 5 or lower cavity level were applicable which would require two RHR pump to be operable and one in operation. The second part is correct.

- The unit is operating at 95% power beginning of life
- RCS boron concentration is 1391 ppm
- Tavg is 585.5°F
- 'A' RHR Pump is being run for quarterly surveillance test on recirc to the RWST Subsequently:
- Tavg is 586.1°F
- An automatic diversion of the VCT to the RHT is in progress
- CCW Surge Tank level is 15% and lowering
- 1DW-15, CCW Makeup, is open in accordance with AOP-014, Loss of Component Cooling Water Which ONE of the following identifies (1) the location of the leak AND (2) the procedure direction(s) required to for this event?

QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: With a CCW System leak in progress the candidate must evaluate the response of the RCS Temperature combined with the rise in VCT level to determine that a dilution event has occurred. Once the determination that a dilution event has occurred the candidate must compare the heat exchanger operating characteristics and determine that a leak in the seal water return heat exchanger will result in the transfer of non-borated CCW water into the borated seal water system.
Finally the candidate must recall the mitigating action directed by AOP-014 to determine the proper sequence of actions required to isolated the non-borated water source.
A. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since the 'A' RHR system is in service for surveillance testing; however this is incorrect because the 'A' RHR system is aligned to the RWST vice the RCS which is physically isolated by check valves when the unit is on-line. The second part is plausible since these would be correct actions if the RHR system pressure is less than the CCW system pressure; however this is incorrect because the RHR to CCW system pump pressure differential would result in leakage into the CCW system causing CCW surge tank level to rise.
B. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since the 'A' RHR system is in service for surveillance testing; however this is incorrect because the 'A' RHR system is aligned to the RWST vice the RCS which is physically isolated by check valves when the unit is on-line. The second part is plausible see A2.
C. Incorrect. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible since the candidate has determined the source of the leak from the CCW system is the seal water return HX and isolating the CCW side of the HX will isolate the leak and stop the inadvertent dilution; however this is incorrect because the seal return is required to be bypassed firsted to ensure a flowpath is maintiained while seal return is in service.
D. Correct.

Given the following conditions:
- The unit is operating at 100% power
- 'A' Reactor Water Makeup Pump is in operation Subsequently a loss of Offsite Power occurs
- RCS cooldown to < 200°F will be required Which ONE of the following completes the statements below concerning the operation of the Reactor Water Makeup Pumps?
The 'A' RW Makeup Pump (1) .
To prevent an inadvertant RCS dilution event the standby Reactor Makeup Water Pump breaker must be opened and placed under clearance in accordance with (2) prior to reducing RCS temperature below 200°F.
A. (1) re-starts automatically during sequencer operation (2) EOP-ES-0.2, Natural Circulation Cooldown B. (1) re-starts automatically during sequencer operation (2) GP-007, Normal Plant Cooldown Mode 3 to Mode 5 C. (1) must be manually re-started (2) EOP-ES-0.2, Natural Circulation Cooldown D. (1) must be manually re-started (2) GP-007, Normal Plant Cooldown Mode 3 to Mode 5 Thursday, May 19, 2016 5:04:41 PM 212
QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: The Reactor Makeup Water (RMWU) Pumps are powered by 1A24 and 1B24 which is energized from safety busses. The 480V loads from the emergency bus is manually energized after the sequencer completes running. The RWMU pumps will operate the same as they did prior to the LOOP once power is restored to their 480V bus.
EOP-ES-02, Step 25 requires that only one RMWU Pump is operable and the standby pump breaker is opened and placed under clearance for inadvertent dilution prevention.
A. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since the VCT is the normal suction source of a Charging pump that is sequenced on in load block 1 for all 3 sequencer programs. During a loss of power to a safety bus the sequencer runs in program "A". There isn't a Safety Injection during Program "A" and the normal suction source to the Charging pumps is the VCT. VCT makeup is provided by the RMWU pump and BA pump. It is plausible to have both the BA pump and RMWU pumps sequenced on to provide makeup to the VCT. But neither pump has power until after a manual 480V breaker for emergency loads is closed. The second part is correct.
B. Incorrect. The first part is plausible see A(1). The second part is plausible since the RCPs do not have power and a Natural Circ Cooldown would be in progress to reduce RCS temperature to < 200°F and GP-007 provides guidance to place the RMWU pumps under clearance during a normal shutdown. However in accordance with EOP ES-0.2 step 25 the procedure will place the RMWU pumps under clearance to prevent an inadvertant dilution event and refer to GP-007 for additional action.
C. Correct.
D. Incorrect. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible see B(2).

QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: In accordance with AOP-017, the Operator is required to maintain levels greater than 30% and Main Feedwater flow to ALL Steam Generators.
FW regulating valves receive a shut signal when instrument air pressure fails to 60 psig. At 1040 the instrument air header pressure of 58 psig therefore the operator is no longer able to maintain Main Feedwater flow to all SG's. Without MFW to the S/G's AOP-017 directs the operator to insert a manual Reactor trip and perform EOP-E-0 while continuing with AOP-017. The operator is required to evaluate the event and determine that a loss of instrument air does not result in an actuation of the Safety Injection system. EOP-ES-0.1, Reactor Trip Response is the appropriate EOP to transition into after entering EOP-E-0 while continuing with AOP-017.
A. Incorrect. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible since without an actuation of the Safety Injection system the correct procedure to implement is EOP-ES-0.1; however this in not correct since EOP-ES-0.1 alone does not address the loss of instrument air system and AOP-017 directs the CRS to continue with the implementation of the AOP while entering the EOP network in response to the Reactor Trip. Additionally the EOP-User's Guide allow the implementation of AOP's that enhance plant control.
B. Correct.
C. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since the Reactor is required to be tripped once SG levels cannot be maintained above 30%; however this is incorrect since it is not the FIRST time that a Reactor trip is required. The second part is plausible since without an actuation of the Safety Injection system the correct procedure to implement is EOP-ES-0.1; however this in not correct since EOP-ES-0.1 alone does not address the loss of instrument air system and AOP-017 directs the CRS to continue with the implementation of the AOP while entering the EOP network in response to the Reactor Trip.

QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: The transition to ECA-1.2 is correct. The Radiation Monitor in alarm and sump level alert lights indicate that the leak is in the B RHR Pump Room.
LOCA outside containment. Transition to ECA-1.2 would occur at step 60 of E-0.
A. Incorrect. Plausible if the candidate misundertands SI termination criteria and determines that positive subcooling satisfies the criteria (+ 3°F and improving), however this is incorrect because PZR level must also be above 10% and the current indication is offscale low which does not meet the requirement for SI termination.

Thursday, May 19, 2016 5:04:42 PM 221
QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: Technical Specification 3.3.1 Functional Unit 11, Pressurizer Water Level - High (Above P-7) requires action 6 to be completed for an inoperable channel. During a unit startup in accordance with GP-005, Power Operation (Mode 2 to Mode 1), step 121, at 15% turbine load Rod Control is transferred from Manual to Automatic. Therefore if the OATC is placing Rod Control in Automatic the Reactor must be > 10% power (P-10 initiates P-7). The High PRZ water level trip setpoint provides sufficient margin such that the undesirable condition of discharging liquid coolant through the safety valves is avoided.
A. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since this would be correct if P-7 was not present but since turbine power must be > 15% to place Rod Control in Automatic P-13 (Turbine > 10% power) has been exceeded. With either P-10 (Reactor power > 10%) or P-13 met P-7 which would be enabled which would re-instate the 92% PRZ High level Reactor trip. The second part is plausible since a PZR high level does result in the potential for damage to the piping downstream of the PZR PORV's and Safeties; however this is incorrect because this is the basis for the RPS P-14, High-High SG Level turbine trip.
B. Incorrect. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible see A(2).
C. Incorrect. The first part is plausible see A(1). The second part is correct.

Given the following plant conditions:
- The unit has experienced a loss of Control Room habitability and control has been established at the ACP
- Normal operating No-Load temperature and pressure has been established Subsequently the following trends are noted:
- RCS temperature is 557°F and rising
- RCS pressure is 2255 psig and rising
- PRZ level is 26% and rising As CRS at the ACP which ONE of the following actions would you direct to control the RCS pressure rise?
Procedure Titles:
AOP-004, Remote Shutdown AOP-019, Malfunction of RCS Pressure Control A. OPEN one PRZ PORV to manually control pressure in accordance with AOP-004.
B. OPEN PRZ spray valves to manually restore pressure in accordance with AOP-019.
C. Dispatch an operator to open the breakers for C and D PRZ heater groups to control pressure in accordance with AOP-004.
D. Dispatch an operator to open the breakers for A and B PRZ heater groups and restore pressure in accordance with AOP-019.
Thursday, May 19, 2016 5:04:42 PM 224
QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: While control of the PRZ pressure control functions are transferred to the ACP in accordance with AOP-004 only the A and B bank of heaters are automatically controlled from the ACP. The first action required in accordance with AOP-004 is to remove control power fuses and trip PRZ heaters C and D locally in the associated switchgear room. By removing the fuses for the heaters the rise in PRZ pressure will be terminated.
A. Incorrect. Plausible since RCS pressure is rising and the PRZ PORVs provide a relief path to lower pressure in the event that pressure rises to 2335 psig; however this is incorrect since the RCS pressure is 2255 psig the action to relieve pressure via the PRZ PORVs is not required .
B. Inorrect. Plausible since other procedures could be referenced while controlling the plant from the ACP. ACP controls of the PRZ heaters have been established and implementing procedure AOP-004 followup actions provide the necessary information to safely shut down the plant.
However, AOP-019 is the procedure normally entered to mitigate PRZ pressure control malfunctions and the action described is directed by AOP-019.
C. Correct.
D. Incorrect. Plausible same as answer 'B' reasoning.

Given the following plant conditions:
- The plant tripped form 100% power and is now stable Post trip Chemistry RCS Dose Equivalent I-131 sample results are as follows:
TIME ACTIVITY (Ci/gm) 0900 0.6 0915 0.9 0930 1.2 0945 1.4 1000 1.7 Which ONE of the following completes the statements below?
The FIRST time that Technical Specification 3.4.8, Reactor Coolant System: Specific Activity, action statement is required to be entered is at (1) .
The basis of Technical Specification LCO 3.4.8 action to reduce RCS Tavg below 500°F is to (2) .
A. (1) 0930 (2) ensure that the 1-hour dose at the SITE BOUNDARY will not exceed a small fraction of the 10 CFR Part 100 dose guideline limits in the event of a SGTR B. (1) 0930 (2) prevent a release of activity should a SGTR occur by preventing the SG atmospheric reliefs from automatically lifting C. (1) 1000 (2) ensure that the 1-hour dose at the SITE BOUNDARY will not exceed a small fraction of the 10 CFR Part 100 dose guideline limits in the event of a SGTR D. (1) 1000 (2) prevent a release of activity should a SGTR occur by preventing the SG atmospheric reliefs from automatically lifting Thursday, May 19, 2016 5:04:42 PM 227
QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: TS 3.4.8 requires verification of DOSE EQUIVALENT I-131 specific activity less than or equal to 1.0 uCi/gm. As stated in the stem, at some time between 0915 and 0930, Dose Equivalent I-131 exceeded the 1.0 uCi/gm limit.
Therefore, 0930 is the first time at which LCO 3.4.8 is NOT met.
The Tech Spec basis for second part of the question states: Reducing Tavg to less than 500°F prevents the release of activity should a steam generator tube rupture occur, since the saturation pressure of the Reactor Coolant is below the lift pressure of the atmospheric steam relief valves.
A. Incorrect. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible since this is the Technical Specification basis for RCS specific activity but this is for 2 hour2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> dose not a 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> dose and does not take into account the 500° RCS temperature. TS 3.4.8 Specific Activity Bases: The limitations on the specific activity of the Reactor Coolant ensure that the resulting 2-hour doses at the SITE BOUNDARY will not exceed an appropriately small fraction of 10 CFR Part 100 dose guideline values following a steam generator tube rupture accident in conjunction with anassumed steady-state reactor-to-secondary steam generator leakage rate of 1 gpm.
B. Correct.
C. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since the plant has experienced a transient and per Tech Spec 3.4.7 "RCS Chemistry" transient limits for Chloride and Floride are < 1.50 (ppm). Therefore, it is reasonable for a candidate to have a misconception about these limits through confusion. This misconception would result in the first time that RCS Dose Equivalent I-131 being out of spec was at 1000.
The second part is plausible see A(2).
D. Incorrect. The first part is plausible see C(1). The second part is correct.

Given the following plant conditions:
- Natural circulation cooldown and depressurization is in progress in accordance with EOP-ES-0.2, Natural Circulation Cooldown The following conditions exist:
- An estimated leak rate from 'A' RCP #1 seal is 20 gpm and rising slowly
- RCS Pressure is 825 psig and lowering
- Thot is 495°F and lowering
- PRZ level is 25% and lowering slowly
- RVLIS Train A Upper Range level is 92% and lowering
- RVLIS Train B Upper Range level Input Quality Code and Error Status is D0(BAD)
The Plant Staff determines that cooldown and depressurization must CONTINUE.
Which ONE of the following action(s) is correct?
A. Transition to EOP-ES-0.4, Natural Circulation Cooldown With Steam Void in Vessel Without RVLIS.
B. Transition to EOP-ES-0.3, Natural Circulation Cooldown With Steam Void in Vessel With RVLIS.
C. Raise RCS subcooling to collapse voids and remain in EOP-ES-0.2, Natural Circulation Cooldown.
D. Actuate SI and go to EOP-E-0, Reactor Trip or Safety Injection.
Thursday, May 19, 2016 5:04:42 PM 230
QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: During natural circulation cooldown and depressurization with RVLIS available, the criteria for transition to ES-0.3 is met when unable to maintain RVLIS >94% and RCS depressurization must continue. In this instance RVLIS level is 92% and lowering and Plant staff has communicated that depressurization must continue. Transition to ES-0.3 is correct.
A. Incorrect. Plausible because would be the required transition if the RVLIS were not available, however with RVLIS Train 'A' available, ES-0.4 is not the correct procedure.
B. Correct.
C. Incorrect. Plausible because maintaining subcooling is directed in the depressurization steps, but to increase subcooling, pressurizing the RCS would be required, and Plant staff has communicated that depressurization must continue.
D. Incorrect: Plausible because PRZ level lowering, but SI Actuation Criteria is not currently met. Conditions (20 gpm leakage) currently do not warrant Safety Injection, and continuing to depressurize the RCS will lessen this leakage.

- A fire is reported from MCC 1B31-SB
- The crew is evaluating if cold leg recirculation capability exists Which ONE of the following completes the statement below?

QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: The main control board indicates the A' RHR pump has control power available by the green light for the pump, but the system valves which are powered by 480V MCC's do not have control power indicating that the 'A' EDG has not energized the 1A-SA Safety bus. Additionally MLB 2A-SA indicates the 'A' CSIP is not running confirming the 1A-SA Safety bus is not energized. Attachment 2 of EOP-E-1 provides the components and the condition of those components required to establish cold leg recirculation. The 'A' train has multiple components that do not meet the required conditions due to the loss of the 1A-SA Safety bus. After reviewing the Monitor light boxes, MLB 3B-SB indicates that 1SI-341, Low Head SI train B to cold leg valve is in the shut position by the status light being illuminated. This valve is normally open with control power removed, but the potential of a hot short due to the fire in 1B31-SB can reposition this valve. 1SI-323 which is powered from 1B31 does not have power as indicated by the lack of red or green valve indication on its control switch.
With 1SI-341 in the shut position and no power available to 1SI-323 the 'B' train is not capable of being placed in cold leg recirculation. With both trains of RHR not capable of cold leg recirculation the procedure directs the candidate to go to EOP-ECA-1.1, Loss Of Emergency Coolant Recirculation".
A. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since the 'A' RHR Pump and 1RH-1 have indication on the MCB; however this is incorrect because the MCB indication for the 'A' RHR Pump is an indication of the status of the breakers DC control power and 1RH-1 does have power but it is powered from the 1B-SB Safety bus. The second part is plausible since the 'B' RHR pump is running and has indication of flow; however this is incorrect because 1SI-341 is not in the correct position. Additionally the RWST level is 38% which does not meet the transition criteria of RWST level less than 23.4%
B. Incorrect. The first part is plausible see A(1). The second part is correct.
C. Incorrect. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible see A(2).

Thursday, May 19, 2016 5:04:42 PM 236
QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: PLP-106 provides a set value of +/- 65 psig as the tolerance for the LTOPS PORV actuation setpoint. RCS pressure actuation setpoint is 465 psig and 475 psig respectively for the Low and High PORV. Based on LTOPS PORV 445A actuating at 480 psig the valve is inoperable. Because this PORV is the first to operate the candidate should determine that LTOPS PORV 445B did not operate as designed also and both LTOPS PORVs are inoperable. This condition requires the implentation of TS 3.4.9.4 action statement c. With both PORVs inoperable, depressurize and vent the RCS through at least a 2.9 square inch vent within 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br />.
A. Incorrect. The first part is plausible in the event the candidate misinterpets the Figure 3-4.4 curve and determines the PORV operated within the PLP-106 maximum tolerance of 80 psig for the Reactor Vessel P-T limits which would be 480 psig; however this is incorrect since the PORV actuation occurs at 480 this is higher than the allowed tolerance of 465 psig. The second part is plausible since the candidate determines the PORV remains operable the evolution the was in progress may continue; however this is incorrect since the PORV actuation occurs outside of the calculated tolerance therefore the PORV is inoperable and will not allow the plant heat to continue.
B. Incorrect. The first part is plausible see A1. The second part is plausible in the event the candidate misapplies the action d due to the operation of the PORV to reduce RCS pressure; however this is incorrect since the assumption is the PORV remains operable therefore the requirements of action d. do not apply.
C. Incorrect. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible since this action is correct if only one PORV is determine to inoperable, the candidate misinterpets the Figure 3-4.4 curve and determines the PORV operated within the PLP-106 maximum tolerance of 80 psig for the Reactor Vessel P-T limits which would be 490 psig for the high PORV; however this is incorrect since actuation pressure of the first PORV to operate is above the maximum actuation setpoint pressure for both the low and high pressure LTOPS PORV both PORVs are inoperable.
D. Correct.

QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: For the first part: Indications for the 'A' CCW pump shaft shear are a lack of outlet flow indication on FI-652.1 (reads 0 GPM), the red running light is still illuminated indicating that the pump is not tripped or just the green light would be on. Low flow and pressure annunciators alarming indicate that the 'A' CCW pump has at one time not provided adequate discharge flow to maintain conditions above the alarm setpoints. At 52 psig and decreasing the 'B' CCW pump which was in standby would have automatically started. The indication that this occurred was that the red running light is illuminated on the 'B' CCW pump and the flow indications on 'B' pump (FI-653.1) initially were at zero and are now at approximately 10,500 GPM.
There are no changes in other pressures, temperatures or flows that would indicate that a leak in the CCW system has occurred.
The second part: Tech Spec 3.7.3 LCO for only ONE CCW flow path being OPERABLE now applies. The CCW flow path needs to be restored within 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> or the plant needs to be placed in HSB within the next 6 and CSD within the following 30 hours3.472222e-4 days <br />0.00833 hours <br />4.960317e-5 weeks <br />1.1415e-5 months <br />.

A. Incorrect. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible if ONLY 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> is used to place the plant in HSB.
B. Correct.
C. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since a leak could cause low pressure in the CCW system which could also reduce system pressure to below the autostart pressure (52 psig) of the standby pump. Multiple low flow and pressure alarms could also occur with a CCW leak. This leak can be elimated by the absense of reduced pressures and flows from reference photo 1 compared to reference photo 2. The second part is plausible (see A.2)
D. Incorrect. The first is plausible (see C.1). The second part is correct.

Given the following plant conditions:
- The unit is at 20% power the crew is conducting a normal startup
- Backup Heater Groups A, B, and D are ON Subsequently the following conditions exist:
- ALB-009-7-5, Pressurizer Heater Overload Trip, is in alarm
- PRZ Heater Group A is de-energized due to overcurrent
- PRZ Pressure indicates 2215 psig and lowering slowly
- PRZ Level is 27% and rising Which ONE of the following completes the statements below?
Based on the indications above, the PRZ Heater Group A breaker must be racked out because (1) .
Heater Group A is (2) to satisfy the surveillance requirements of Technical Specification 3.4.3, Reactor Coolant System: Pressurizer.
A. (1) there is no mechanical lockout to prevent reclosure (2) required B. (1) there is no mechanical lockout to prevent reclosure (2) NOT required C. (1) subsequent closure of the breaker may render the Diesel Generator inoperable (2) required D. (1) subsequent closure of the breaker may render the Diesel Generator inoperable (2) NOT required Thursday, May 19, 2016 5:04:42 PM 242
QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: The PRZ Heater group breakers do not have anti pump logic to mechanically prevent the breaker from reclosing in the event that it trips open due to overcurrent. APP-ALB-009 directs the breaker to be racked out until that cause of the overcurrent conditions is investigated. Technical Specification 3.4.3 action a requires at least two groups of pressurizer heaters be restored to operable status within 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> with only one group of heaters operable.
A. Correct.
B. Incorrect. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible since the LCO only requires 2 heater groups with a capacity of 125 KW and the capacity heater groups A, B C and D all meet this minimum 125 KW requirement.
However this is incorrect because in accordance with OWP-RC-08 and MST-E0023 group A and Group B heaters are required to exhibit output of 125 KW or greater to successfully comply with the T.S. 3.4.3 surveillance requirement.
C. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since components that are powered from the diesel backed safety bus may not properly load shed the EDG may be inoperable. This caution and limitation is found in multiple operations procedures as a reminder to evaluate the EDG operability for potential impacts to sequencing and load shedding requirements. However this is incorrect because the PRZ Heater Group A is powered from the emergency bus which is stripped from the safety bus during sequencer operations and only the 1A1 supply breaker is required to be stripped for EDG operability. The second part is correct.
D. Incorrect. The first is plausible see C(1). The second part is plausible see B(2)

Given the following plant conditions:
- A LOCA occurred 45 minutes ago
- The crew is performing actions in accordance with EOP-ES-1.3, Transfer to Cold Leg Recirculation
- The OATC is in the process of performing the valve alignment During the valve alignment the following alarms are received:
- ALB-001-2-2, SPRAY PUMP A DISCHARGE LOW PRESS
- ALB-001-2-5, SPRAY PUMP A SUCTION LOW PRESS Both alarms are received and clear intermittently over the course of about 1 minute
- "A" RHR pump amps and discharge pressure are beginning to oscillate
- The CRS has determined that Train 'A' recirculation sump performance is degraded Which ONE of the following identifies (1) the procedure implementation strategy AND (2) the mitigating actions based on the determination that the recirculation sump is degraded?
A. (1) Remain in EOP-ES-1.3 (2) Stop 'A' Containment Spray Pump B. (1) Remain in EOP-ES-1.3 (2) Throttle CSIP flow to be slightly greater than the minimum flow requirements C. (1) Go to EOP-ECA-1.1, Loss of Emergency Coolant Recirculation (2) Stop 'A' Containment Spray Pump D. (1) Go to EOP-ECA-1.1, Loss of Emergency Coolant Recirculation (2) Throttle CSIP flow to be slightly greater than the minimum flow requirements Thursday, May 19, 2016 5:04:42 PM 245
QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: Reason the first part of question is correct: Once EOP ES-1.3 is entered a caution prior to step 1 states that steps 1 through 9 should be performed without delay. Even though there is indications of a degraded sump on the
'A' train of equipment, the contingency EOP-ECA-1.1 should not be transistioned to at this time because cold leg recirculation capibility is still available using the 'B' train equipment. EOP-ES-1.3 should be carried out until reaching step 10 where initation of monitoring of CSF Status Trees are started. The second part of question is correct in accordance with the APP for ALB-001-2-2 when the discharge pressure for the spray pump is low due to no suction source (degraded sump prevents suction to the pump) the pump should be secured.
A. Correct.
B. Incorrect. The first part is correct. In the second part of the question the stem information is that the RHR pumps are experiencing cavitaion. It is plausible that increasing the CSIP discharge which raises RCS level will give the RHR pumps a greater NPSH. The increased NPSH should stop the RHR pump cavitation problem making this answer plausible.
C. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since there are indications that the suction sources to the Containment Spray and RHR pumps are inadequate but during the alignment for Cold Leg Recirculation the procedure is implemented without transitioning to another procedure until after the alignment is completed (step 10). The second part is correct.
D. Incorrect. The first part is plausible (see C.1). The second part is plausible (see B.2)

Thursday, May 19, 2016 5:04:42 PM 248
QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: The Rod Insertion technical specification 3.1.3.6 limit is a linear curve that increases the limit 1.86 steps for each percent power. With the reactor at 70% power the rod insertion limits for control bank C and D are 225 and 130 steps repectively. The control rods indicate they are at 228 on control bank C and 125 steps on control bank D therefore control bank D is clearly below the technical specification 3.1.3.6 limits at time 0630 as indicated.

A. Correct.
B. Incorrect. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible since the normal progression of LCO action statements is to perform the first action, i.e.
action a, then if not completed perform the second action, i.e. action b, within the following time frame after the elapse of the first action; however this is incorrect since the LCO allows the candidate to perform either action statement to restore compliance with the LCO within the 2 hour2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> timeframe therefore the cumulative time of 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> is improperly applying the technical specification 3.1.3.6 LCO.

Thursday, May 19, 2016 5:04:42 PM 251
QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: Per the asterisk in the LCO statement and it's associated note: WIth N-31 unaffected and selected for audible count rate, substitution of an operating Wide Range Neutron Flux Monitor is allowed, the LCO is met, and no action is required. Therefore refueling operations may continue.
A. Correct.
B. Incorrect. The first part is correct.

The crew is implementing EOP-E-3, Steam Generator Tube Rupture. The CRS is at the step to isolate flow from the ruptured SG.
Which ONE of the following completes the statements below?
The CRS should direct the OATC to set the ruptured SG PORV controller setpoint to (1)
The bases for setting the controller to the new setpoint is to (2) .
A. (1) 1135 psig (87%)
(2) prevent lifting the SG code safety valves B. (1) 1135 psig (87%)
(2) minimize RCS to ruptured SG P C. (1) 1145 psig (88%)
(2) prevent lifting the SG code safety valves D. (1) 1145 psig (88%)
(2) minimize RCS to ruptured SG P Thursday, May 19, 2016 5:04:42 PM 261
QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: In accordance with the Westinghouse Owners Group (WOG)
Background document for step descriptions of the Steam Generator Tube Rupture procedure (E-3) the setpoint for the ruptured SG PORV controller should be adjusted so the setpoint is greater than no load value (85% at HNP this would be 1106 psig) in order to minimize atmospheric releases from the rupture steam generator and less than the minimum safety valve setpoint to prevent lifting of the code safety valves, which at HNP there are 5 safety valves with lift settings of 1170, 1185, 1200, 1215, and 1230 psig. The 25 psig margin is a typical value to allow for opening of the PORV prior to lifting of the safety valve.
A. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since this is the SG PORV controller setpoint that the CRS would direct the RO set the PORV during plant startup operations (GP-005 Section 5.0 step 5.e). This higher setting is to accommodate plant startup by placing an artifical load on the Reactor without causing the PORVs to open. The second part of the answer is correct.
B. Incorrect The first part is plausible since this is the SG PORV controller setpoint that the CRS would direct the RO set the PORV during plant startup operations (GP-005, Power Operation, Section 5.0 step 5.e). This higher setting is to accommodate plant startup by placing an artifical load on the Reactor without causing the PORVs to open. The second part is plausible since changing the controller setpoint to a higher value will increase the SG pressure and minimize the delta P between the RCS to SG.
C. Correct.
D. Incorrect. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible since changing the controller setpoint to a higher value will increase the SG pressure and minimize the delta P between the RCS to SG.

Given the following plant conditions:
- A Reactor startup is in progress in accordance with GP-004, Reactor Startup (Mode 3 To Mode 2)
- Reactor power will be held below 3% until EST-923, Initial Criticality And Low Power Physics Testing is completed Which ONE of the following completes the statement below?
In accordance with AD-OP-ALL-0203, Reactivity Management this is an (1) category planned reactivity evolution AND a DEDICATED SRO (Reactivity Manager)
(2) expected to provide oversight during the implementation this evolution.
A. (1) R1 (2) is B. (1) R1 (2) is NOT C. (1) R2 (2) is D. (1) R2 (2) is NOT Thursday, May 19, 2016 5:04:42 PM 264
QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: R1 Evolutions are defiened as an activity significantly affecting core power/reactivity which requires significant operator attention. Examples include but are not limited to: (1) Zero Power Physics Testing, (2) Reactor startups The Reactivity Manager oversight (Dedicated SRO, other than the CRS or STA, with no concurrent duties) is expected to be stationed during R1 evolutions A. Correct.
B. Incorrect. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible since the CRS is allowed to perfrom the role of Reactivity Manager during R2 activities and power is being held below 5% may misapply the expectations of an R2 evolution since power changes will be less than 10%. However this is incorrect because Low Power Physics testing and Reactor startups are considered R1 evolutions and the expectation is that the Reactivity Manager be a dedicated SRO, other than the CRS or STA.
C. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since power is being held below 5% and an example of an R2 evolution is power changes of less than 10%. However this is incorrect because Low Power Physics testing and Reactor startups are considered R1 evolutions. The second part is correct.

QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: AD-OP-ALL-0200, section 5.7 provides the following general guidance for creating a clearance tagging boundary. The order of tagging application should be arranged as follows:
General cautions, notes or other associated clearance, Control switches, Power supplies - e.g., breakers, disconnects, fuses, Lifted leads. Mechanical isolation points (i.e., discharge and suction valves), Support systems (cooling water, air supplies, etc.),
Drains and Vents. If system has greater than 500 psid across boundary valves or fluids above 200°F (93°C), then double valve isolation shall be provided when available.
If double valve isolation is not provided, then designate the clearance as an Exceptional Clearance. In accordance with Attachment 6 clearance hang preparation checklist the details of an exceptional clearance are required to documented in the clearance details and if not complete the clearance should be locked out until exceptional clearance approvals are complete.
A. Incorrect. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible since the VCT temperature is less than 200°F and double valve isolation is not required below 200°F which would allow this clearance to be hung as written; however this is incorrect because the CSIP discharge pressure is greater than 500 psig which requires double isolation or the clearance to be identified as an Exceptional clearance.
B. Correct.
C. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since double valve isolation is not used for this clearance; however this is not correct because double valve isolation is not required since it is not available without shutting down the entire CVCS system. The second part is plausible see A(2).
D. Incorrect. The first part is plausible see C(1). The second part is correct.

A. (1) Entry into Containment to inspect for RCS leakage in the PRZ cubicle.
(2) Shift Manager B. (1) Entry into Containment to inspect for RCS leakage in the PRZ cubicle.
(2) Assistant Operations Manager - Shift C. (1) Entry into a High Radiation Area on the 261' RAB to inspect a CVCS leak.
(2) Shift Manager D. (1) Entry into a High Radiation Area on the 261' RAB to inspect a CVCS leak.
(2) Assistant Operations Manager - Shift Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: SRWP is required for entry into the Containment bioshield with the Reactor critical. In accordance with AP-545, The Nuclear Shift Manager (SM) responsibility shall not be designated and is responsible for: Concurring with entries into LHRAs (for example, areas inside the bio-shield, or on Elevation 286 or above, when the reactor is critical).
A. Correct.
B. Incorrect. The first part is correct. The second part is plausible since the AOM-Shift is one of the individuals who performs the function of Duty Manager and the Duty Manager is required to be briefed prior to entry into CNMT and other LHRAs with ALARA concerns; however this is incorrect because the AOM-Shift is not required to concur with the entry.
C. Incorrect. The first part is plausible since the equipment is located inside a HRA with ALARA concerns; however a SRWP is not required for routine tasks for operations rounds, HP surveillances, inspections, and routine PM's in an high radiation area. The second part is correct.
D. Incorrect. The first part is plausible see C(1). The second part is plausible see B(2).

QUESTIONS REPORT for Harris 2016 NRC RO SRO Written Exam REV 4 60 Day Submittal Plausibility and Answer Analysis Reason answer is correct: With the condition of an inadvertent SI, SI Termination Criteria will be met prior to exiting E-0 so SI flow will be terminated in E-0. The RNO for 1SI-3 directs the operator to locally shut or isolate the BIT Outlet valves but the User's Guide states preferentially to shut either 1SI-3 or 1SI-4 (the BIT Outlet Valves).
A. Incorrect. ES-1.1 is for SI Termination and will be entered for this event. However, with the condition of an inadvertent SI, SI Termination Criteria will be met in E-0 so SI flow will be terminated in E-0. The RNO for 1SI-3 directs locally shut or isolate the BIT Outlet valves.
B. Incorrect. ES-1.1 is for SI Termination and will be entered for this event. However, with the condition of an inadvertent SI, SI Termination Criteria will be met in E-0 so SI flow will be terminated in E-0. The RNO for 1SI-3 directs locally shut or isolate the BIT Outlet valves, so shutting the Inlet valves is incorrect. But it is plausible because the EOP Users Guide discusses closing the Inlet valves if the Outlet valves cannot be shut.
C. Correct.
