Form 2.3-2 Operating Test Quality Checklist a.

Each job performance measure (JPM) includes the following, as applicable:

task standard initial conditions initiating cues references and tools, including associated procedures reasonable and validated time limits (average time allowed for completion) and specific designation if the facility licensee deems it to be time critical i 1 alternate path JPMs are labeled as "alternate path" operationally important specific performance criteria that include the following:

detailed expected actions with exact criteria and nomenclature system response and other examiner cues statements describing important observations to be made by the applicant criteria for successful completion of the JPM task standard identification of critical steps and their associated performance standards restrictions on the sequence of steps, if aoolicable b.

Ensure that any changes from the previously approved JPM outlines (Forms 3.2-1 and 3.2-2) y have not caused the test to deviate from any of the acceptance criteria (e.g., item y

distribution, bank use, repetition from the last two NRC examinations) specified on those forms.

Simulator Scenario Set Criteria for Scenario Numbers: 1 / 2 / 3 QUALITATIVE ATTRIBUTES

1.

The initial conditions are realistic in that some equipment and/or instrumentation may be y 1 out of service, but it does not cue the operators into expected events.

2.

The scenarios consist mostly of related events.

'( '/

3.

Each event description consists of the following:

the point in the scenario when it is to be initiated f 1 the malfunction(s) or conditions that are entered to initiate the event the symptoms/cues that will be visible to the crew the expected operator actions (by shift position) the event termination point (if applicable)

QUALITATIVE ATTRIBUTES (continued) a (Y)es / (N)o b*

c#

4.

The events are valid with regard to physics and thermodynamics.

y '/

5.

The sequencing and timing of events is reasonable and allows the examination team to y y observe and evaluate applicant performance.

6.

If time compression techniques are used, the scenario summary clearly so indicates.

f Operators have sufficient time to carry out expected activities without undue time y

constraints. Cues are given.

7.

The simulator modeling is not altered.

'-I y

8.

The scenarios have been validated. Pursuant to 10 CFR 55.46(d}, any open simulator y

performance deficiencies or deviations from the referenced plant have been evaluated to ensure that functional fidelity is maintained while running the planned scenarios.

9.

Scenarios are new or significantly modified in accordance with ES-3.4.
