Explanation; The six switches in a row isolate DG2 engine and generator control circuitry from the control room (the fire area) since a fire induced fault in wiring in the fire area may result in loss of the DG. The seventh switch inserts redundant control power fuses to the circuitry that has been isolated in the event a fault has already resulted in blowing the normal fuses. This seventh switch must be turned last with the potentially faulted circuitry already isolated or the alternate fuses may also blow making the DG unavailable. The DG engine lockout is already tripped if the DG had been running since the operator is directed to trip the DG using emergency stop. | Explanation; The six switches in a row isolate DG2 engine and generator control circuitry from the control room (the fire area) since a fire induced fault in wiring in the fire area may result in loss of the DG.

Caution 1 A RPV level instrument may be used to determine RPV level only when the conditions for use specified below are satisfied for that instrument.
NOTE
- Reference leg area drywell temperature is determined using Attachment 18, Level Instrument Reference Leg Area Drywell Temperature Calculations, ERFIS or Instructional Aid based on Attachment 18. ...............................
- If the temperature near any instrument run is in the UNSAFE region of the Attachment 19, RPV Saturation Limit, the instrument may be unreliable due to boiling in the run. ...........................................................................................................
- Immediate reference leg boiling is not expected to occur for short duration excursions into the unsafe region due to heating of the drywell. The thermal time constant associated with the mass of metal and water in the reference leg will prohibit immediate boiling of the reference leg. Reference leg boiling is an obvious phenomenon. Large scale oscillations of all water level instruments associated with the reference leg that is boiling will occur. This occurrence will be obvious and readily observable by the operator.

Aron Lewin Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation
EXECUTIVE
SUMMARY
Two of the many elements contributing to the safety of nuclear power are emergency response and the feedback from operating experience into plant operations. These are achieved partly by the licensee event reporting requirements of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) 50.72, Immediate Notification Requirements for Operating Nuclear Power Reactors, and 10 CFR 50.73, Licensee Event Report System. In 10 CFR 50.72, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) provides for immediate notification requirements through the emergency notification system, and in 10 CFR 50.73 provides for 60-day written licensee event reports.
The NRC staff uses the information reported under 10 CFR 50.72 and 10 CFR 50.73 in responding to emergencies, monitoring ongoing events, confirming licensing bases, studying potentially generic safety problems, assessing trends and patterns of operational experience, monitoring performance, identifying precursors of more significant events, and providing operational experience to the industry.
NUREG-1022 contains guidelines that the staff of the NRC considers acceptable for use in meeting the requirements of 10 CFR 50.72 and 10 CFR 50.73. Several identified reporting issues could not be quickly resolved given certain ambiguities in the guidance in Revision 2 of NUREG-1022. In developing Revision 3 to NUREG-1022, the NRC held numerous public and internal meetings to solicit stakeholder input and feedback. In resolving the ambiguities, the NRC considered the provisions of the rule itself, the associated statements of consideration, and other available guidance in that hierarchal order. Revision 3 to NUREG-1022 revises the event reporting guidelines to provide clearer guidance.

Pedigree: New Objective: LOl-CLS-LP-008, Obj. 8 Given plant conditions, predict the effect that a loss or malfunction of the following will have on the CRDH System: b. Condensate Storage Tank
Reference:
None Cog Level: High Explanation: Under normal system operations the CRD system suction is from the condensate system.
The alternate supply is from the CST, which will transfer automatically. With the condensate system under clearance these valves would be isolated. The standpipe for the CRD suction is at 1 1 feet. The auto transfer for the suction for ECCS is at 3 feet.
Distractor Analysis:
Choice A: Plausible because the pumps will lose NPSH and trip but the suction is at 11 feet not 3 feet.
Choice B: Correct Answer, see explanation.
Choice C: Plausible because an auto transfer to the CST would occur but in this case an auto transfer to the condensate system is not possible. 3 feet is the suction height for the ECCS system.
Choice D: Plausible because an auto transfer to the CST would occur but in this case an auto transfer to the condensate system is not possible. The second part is correct.

Pedigree: Bank Objective: LOl-CLS-LP-017, Obj. 09 Given an RHR pump or valve, list the interlocks, permissives and/or automatic actions associated with the RHR pump or valve, including setpoints.
Reference:
None Cog Level: High Explanation: The heat exchanger bypass valve has a 3 minute timer that starts on a LOCA signal.
Drywell pressure greater than 1 .7# and reactor pressure is less than 41 0# is the first LOCA signal. The injection valve has a 5 minute interlock initiated by the same conditions.
Another LOCA signal is introduced when reactor water level less than LL3 which provides the plausibility of the distractors.
Distractor Analysis:
Choice A: Correct Answer, see explanation.
Choice B: Plausible because this is 3 minutes from the LL3 LOCA signal.
Choice C: Plausible because this is 5 minutes from the low pressure setpoint which is time limit interlock for the injection valve.
Choice D: Plausible because this is 5 minutes from the LL3 LOCA signal.
SRO Basis: N/A Alter an hiltiation signal is received the foLlowing actions will occur:
- all tour RHR pumps wilt start 10 seconds alter power is available to the E-buses.
- Recirculation pumps are tripped via LL#2
- All valves not needed for LPCI injection automatically isolate and are interlocked shut as previously described.
- Heat exchanger bypass valve FO48NB opens and cannot be throttled for 3 minutes alter an initiation signal is received. This ensures a discharge path for the RHR pumps.
a Permissives sent to ADS as RHR pump pressure is sensed
> 100 psig. Both pumps in either loop are required to satisfy the ADS permissive, or one core spray loop.
- Minimum flow valve opens if injection flow in loop is < 1000 gpm decreasing after a 10 sec time delay. It automatically shuts as injection valves open and injection flow raises to> 3000 gpm increasing.
- Reactor pressure decreases through the break and/or with actuation of ADS.
- As reactor pressure decreases to 410 psig, the LPCI injection valves EDt 5AfB) auto open. The outboard injection valve FO1ZA(B) can be throttled 5 minutes after the RPV pressure is below 410 psig.
- As pressure reaches 310 psig, recirculation pump discharge and discharge bypass valves shut and are interlocked shut in the attempt to re-flood the core.
- As pressure reaches 200 psig, the RHR system injects into both recirculation system loops by lifting the check valves and overcoming reactor pressure.

Pedigree: New Objective: LOI-CLS-LP-01 7, Obj. 15 Describe how the reactor cool down rate is controlled when the RHR system is in the Shutdown Cooling mode
Reference:
None Cog Level: High Explanation: The procedure allows throttling closed the F003, FOl 7 or F068 or throttling open the F048.
Throttling open the F048 will bypass some of the RHR flow around the heat exchanger thereby lowering cooldown rate. RHR flow is limited to greater than 6000 gpm, so closing the F017 or F003 is not an option.
Distractor Analysis:
Choice A: Plausible because if the valve was throttled closed this would lower cooldown, but flow must be greater than 6000 gpm.,
Choice B: Plausible because if the valve was throttled closed this would lower cooldown, but flow must be greater than 6000 gpm..
Choice C: Plausible because if the valve was throttled open this would be correct.

Pedigree: Bank Objective: LOl-CLS-LP-019. Obj. 8 Describe the methods available for controlling RPV pressure and/or RPV cooldown when operating the HPCI System in the Pressure Control mode. (LOCT)
Reference:
None Cog Level: high Explanation: Opening F008 will increase flow, causing turbine speed control to lower turbine speed to maintain desired flow. Opening valve too far can result in RPM below 2100 (OP-i 9, Section 8.2). Closing F008 will cause turbine speed to increase, but the governor limits turbine speed to a maximum value (4100 RPM) below the overspeed trip.
Distractor Analysis:
Choice A: Plausible because opened is correct and an overspeed condition may be thought correct if the flowpath is considered incorrectly.
Choice B: Correct Answer, see explanation.
Choice C: Plausible because throttling closed will increase the speed of the turbine.
Choice D: Plausible because may be thought correct if the flowpath is considered incorrectly.
SRO Basis: N/A From OP-19:
CAUTION Throttling E41-FOO& open may cause turbine speed reduction to less than 2100 rpm, if opened too far.
From the SD:
Operation of the HPCI Turbine betow the minimum rated speed of 2100 rpm may result in a failure of the auxiliary oil pump from repeated startup cycles. A loss of the auxiliary oil pump Mlt prevent starting of the HPCI Turbine.

Pedigree: Last used on 10-1 NRC Exam Objective: CLS-LP-18, Obj. 10 Explain the principle of operation of the CS Line Break Detection Instrumentation
Reference:
None Cog Level: fundamental Explanation: This system is comprised of a differential pressure detector which provides Control Room annunciation on detected high DP. The high pressure reference leg of this instrument is exposed to above core plate pressure via the SLC/Core Differential Pressure penetration.
The low pressure of this instrument is normally exposed to above core pressure via the Core Spray injection line. This results in the instrument normally measuring core DP (not including core plate DP).
Distractor Analysis:
Choice A: Plausible because the examinee may confuse the reference and variable legs and SLC does discharge below the core plate Choice B: Plausible because the examinee may confuse the reference and variable legs Choice C: Plausible because it is the reference leg and SLC does discharge below the core plate.
Choice D: Correct Answer, see explanation SRO Basis: N/A
This system is comprised of a differential pressure detector which provides Control Room annunciation on detected high P. The hgh pressure reference leg of this instrument is exposed to above core plate pressure via the SLCIC0re Differential Pressure penetration. The low pressure of this instrument is normally exposed to above core pressure via the Core Spray injection line. This results in the instrument normaity measuring core P (not including core plate aP).
A break in the Core Spray injection line between the reactor vessel penetration and the core shroud would expose the low pressure side of the instrument to the lower pressure of the region outside the shroud.
This would be sensed as an increased differential pressure and Control Room annunciator would alert the Operator. Although other indtcations would be available, this atami would also indicate a break in the line between the E21-FOQ6GfA) check valve and the reactor vessel penetration.
The Core Spray pipe break detection instruments are located on the Reactor Building 20 elevation.

This gives an accurate representation of actual power around the control rod. The B and D detectors are distributed evenly between the two REM channels. An example of LPRf input to a both REM channels vith a four-string rod selected is two B level LPRMs, four C level LPRMs, and two D level LPRMS for each channel.
The REM circuitry undergoes a nulling and filtering sequence when a rod is selected and therefore a delay of at least 2.5 seconds must be allowed between selection and rod movement. A Rod Inhibit signal is SD-09.6 Rev. 12 Page 25 of 95

These LVPS convert 120 VAC to low voltage DC. See Figure 09.6-it.
Each APRM instrument receives power from two power supplies, LVPS 1 and LVPS 4. LVPS 1 is fed from RPS Bus A while LVPS 4 is fed from RPS Bus B. Therefore, a toss of an RPS Bus will not affect operation of the APRM NUMACS.

The RPS System provides power to each of the four APRM instruments, which in turn provide power to all subsystems driven from the APRM instruments or NUMAC. Both RPS busses, A and B, provide power to each APRM instrument, as well as, each RBM.
Therefore, a loss of one RPS bus will not affect operation of the PRNMS.
The reactor mode switch provides input to each APRM instrument to determine when to enforce the fixed or flow biased scram trip and rod block settings. OPRM circuitry is enabled only when power/flow conditions are met and the mode switch in RUN.

Pedigree: New Objective: CLS-LP-016-A, Obj.16c Describe how the following evolutions are performed during operation of the RCIC System:
Adjusting RCIC flow in the Reactor Level Control mode.
Reference:
None Cog Level: high
Explanation: The RCIC Turbine is provided with a solenoid operated remote electrical tripping device, which when actuated (in this case by low suction pressure), will close the Turbine Trip and Throttle Valve, E51-V8. Resetting of the remote electrical tripping device may be accomplished from the RTGB. The RCIC system is restarted after auto initiation and turbine trip by fully closing the V-8, and re-opening the V-8. Located on the controller face is a PF (programmable function) pushbutton which when depressed an automatic transfer from manual to automatic at a predetermined setpoint of 400 GPM will result. This button (PF) has no function if the controller is already in automatic.
Distractor Analysis:
Choice A: This is plausible because this answer would be correct for these actions following a high RPV water level trip of RCIC Choice B: Plausible because this would be correct if the operator did not depress the PF pushbutton.
Choice C: Correct Answer, see explanation.
Choice D: Plausible because the PF push button would raise RCIC flow to rated (400 gpm) and not maximum per procedure (500 gpm). Achieving 500 gpm would require the flow control setpoint to be manually raised.
SRO Basis: N/A From SD-16:
Also located on the controller lace is a PF (programmable fUnction) pushbutton. When depressed an automatic transfer from MANUAL to AUTOMATIC at a predetermined setpoint of 400 GPM will result.
NOTE: This button (PF) has no function if the controller is already in AUTOMATIC.
For various internal processing failures, the controller is designed to hold the last output and automatically switch to MANUAL giving the operator manual control capability. Barring operator intervention, this failure could result in rising or lowering RCIC 110w and would be indicated by the red FAIL lamp on the controller face. Failure display code can then be checked using the side panel keypad. A down scale failure of the controller is possible and would result in turbine operation at well below the normal minimum speed of 2000 rpm. An upscale failure is highly unlikely but would result in turbine speed at or above the maximum running speed of 4600 rpm. Failures associated with the dynamic response are also highly unlikely but would produce either excessively sluggish responses or dynamic instability (full scale oscillations) when in the Automatic mode. Programmable settings internal to the controller are maintained during a loss 0124 Vdc power stipply by a lithium battery. If this battery voltage drops to a pre-determined low value, the yellow ALARM light will flash. If the input signals are not within the limits 01-6.3% to 106.3% or if the input or output signals are not intact, the Yellow ALARM light will come on solid.

Reference:
None
Cog Level: high Explanation: With the loss of offsite power and 1 B CS pump under clearance this would leave only one pump available in each RHR loop. Therefore ADS logic is lost. Level will continue to lower until the ADS valves are manually opened (emergency depressurization) at which time the running low pressure pumps will be able to add water. Injection would be from the A Loop of RHR as the B Loop injection valves do not have power.
Distractor Analysis:
Choice A: Plausible because ADS does have initiation conditions except that the logic will not have the appropriate pumps lined up for injection. B Loop of RHR does not have power to the injection valves Choice B: Plausible because ADS does have initiation conditions except that the logic will not have the appropriate pumps lined up for injection. B Loop of RHR does not have power to the injection valves Choice C: Plausible because ADS will not auto initiate but the B Loop of RHR does not have power to the injection valves.

Pedigree: New Objective: LOI-CLS-LP-020, Obj. 7d State the purpose of the following: SRV tailpipe vacuum breakers
Reference:
None Cog Level: Fundamental Explanation: Following operation of the valve, a vacuum is created in the SRV tailpipe as the steam condenses. Water in the line above the suppression pool water level would cause excessive pressure at the SRVs discharge when and if the valve reopened. For this reason, a vacuum relief valve is provided on each SRV tailpipe to prevent drawing water up into the line due to this steam condensation following SRV operation.

- a. the MANUAL regulator controls Generator output voltage
- b. the AUTOMATIC regulator controls Generator output voltage
- c. to transfer from one Voltage Regulator to the other
Reference:
None Cog Level: Fundamental Explanation: The AVR controls terminal voltage while the manual regulator controls field voltage. The manual voltage regulator does not track the setpoint of the AVR, this must be manually adjusted in the control room.
Distractor Analysis:
Choice A: Plausible because the MVR controls field voltage and the DG manual voltage regulator does track the auto regulator setpoint.
Choice B: Plausible because the MVR controls field voltage and the second part is correct.
Choice C: Plausible because the first part is correct and the DC manual voltage regulator does track the auto regulator setpoint.
Choice D: Correct Answer, see explanation.
SRO Basis: N/A 2.15 Excitation Control (Refer to Figure 27-12)
The Silicon Controlled Rectifier (SCR) bridge circuit is used as a variable DC voltage source to control the exciter field current as required by the AC or DC regulator. The source of the control signal for the SCRs is determined by the Regulator Mode Selector Switch (43CS) located on Panel XlJ-1.
When Manual is selected, the DC regulator maintains a constant generator field voltage that is determined by the Manual Volts Adjust Rheostat. When the Automatic regulator is selected, the AC regulator maintains a constant generator terminal voltage.
2.17.8 Generator Voltage Regulator Differential Voltmeter This is a standard voltmeter that measures the magnitude and polarity of the difference between the DC regulator output signal and the AC regulator output signal. When shining control from the DC voltage regulator to the AC regulator or back, it is important to ensure that the signals are the same. As an example, if the meter reads to the clockwise of zero, then the manual regulator output is less than the automatic regulator If the meter reads counter clockwise of zero, then the manual signal is larger than the automatic signal. The meter indicates 0-10 volts in both directions.
Failure to have the regulator control signals matched when shifting regulator modes may result in transients on the generator output.
The severity of the transient would be determined by the direction and magnitude of the mismatch.

The first part of the question deals with predicting the effect of a cooldown on indicated level error while the second part has the student has to determine based on the lowering pressure what LL4 value would be which is the value that emergency depressurization would be required. They must utilize the lower end of the pressure band to determine LL4. If LL4 cannot be maintained then ED is required.
Pedigree: New Objective: LOl-CLS-LP-001.2, Objective 5a Explain the effect that the following will have on reactor vessel level and/or pressure indications:
Plant heatup/cooldown
Reference:
OEOP-01-UG, Attachment 26
Cog Level: High Explanation: The indicated level error is sensitive to changes in the saturation density of the bulk water as a function of system pressure. The amount of the indicated level error is also a function of the difference in the actual water level and the variable leg instrument tap elevation. As the saturation density increases (pressure decreases) the indicated level error will increase for the narrow and wide range instruments and decrease for the fuel zone and shutdown range instruments due to calibration criteria.
From 01-37.11 TAF, LL4, and LL5 values should be determined based on the reference leg area temperature and RPV pressure compensation curves, using RPV pressure at the low end of the established RPV pressure control band. Based on the low end of the band of 500 psig and <200°F in the drywell the LL4 value would be -60 inches.

4.1.2 System Pressure (Heat-up and Cool-down)
The indicated level error is sensitive to changes in the saturation density of the bulk water as a function of system pressure. The amount of the indicated level error is also a function of the difference in the actual water level and the variable leg instrument tap elevation.
As the saturation density increases (pressure decreases) the indicated level error will increase for the narrow and wide range instruments and decrease for the fuel zone and shutdown range instruments due to calibration criteria. As actual water level decreases, the amount of error will decrease because less vessel water level is acting on the instrument.

This meets the K/A because this is testing the operational implication as to which rad monitor, if asked as the operational effect on the individual rad monitor this would provide no discrimatory value.
Pedigree: New Objective: LOI-CLS-LP-059, Obj. 8 Explain why Chemistry must be notified when starting and securing the HWC System.
Reference:
None Cog Level: Fundamental Explanation: The excess Hydrogen injected into the reactor coolant creates the driving force to shift the Nitrogen-16 distribution ratio, resulting in a larger fraction of the Nitrogen-16 forming volatile Ammonia and a smaller fraction forming Nitrites and Nitrates. This additional volatile Ammonia is then carried over in the reactor steam resulting in higher background radiation levels. Any increase in Hydrogen injection rates will result in a proportional increase in background radiation levels and vise-versa.
OGP-02 has a step for ensuring that the rad monitors are adjusted based on this background rad level increase.
Distractor Analysis:
Choice A: Correct Answer, see explanation.
Choice B: Plausible because when HWC is placed in service the rad levels will increase minimally and HWC H2 is injected in the reactor feed pumps.
Choice C: Plausible because sufficient decay time is available for N-16 such that radiation levels wouldnt raise that much in this area.
Choice D: Plausible because when HWC is placed in service the rad levels will increase minimally and this is downstream of the HWC 02 injection point.

Reference:
None Cog Level: High
Explanation: There are frequency based criteria in AOP-22.0 (Caution directly preceding step 3.2.1) for tripping the turbine to prevent resonance vibration of low pressure blades due to off frequency operation. Time limits include, 5 minute ranges and 1 minute ranges. At this current frequency, the Main Turbine can be operated indefinitely, which will not cause turbine damage. Sustained low voltage provides for higher running currents which will damage running ESF motors. Per the automatic actions section of AOP-22.0, the degraded voltage relays will actuate when emergency bus voltage has dropped below 3700 VAC for 10 seconds. This trips the Master/Slave breakers (BOP bus supply to E Buses) and the DGs start and load.
Distractor Analysis:
Choice A: Plausible because turbine blade damage can occur due to off frequency operation and the second part is correct.
Choice B: Plausible because turbine blade damage can occur due to off frequency operation and the second part is plausible because the frequency is within range.

2.4 Protective Relaying Protective relaying is designed to isolate any faulted component or portion of the electrical system, while maintaining continuity of power to the unfaulted portion of the system. The most commonly used protective devices include:
- 1. Undervoltage (27 Device) Relays. Undervoltage relays actuate on a low voltage condition, and usually are time delayed to account for momentary transient conditions, such as fault cleanng and bus transfers. The degraded grid voltage relays are provided with a substantially longer time delay to prevent actuation due to motor starting transients. Undervoltage relays provide a variety of protective functions including supply breaker trips and closure permissives, large motor breaker trips and closure permissives, and automatic starting of the Emergency Diesel Generators.

4.2 Abnormal Operation 4.2.1 Abnormal Frequency Conditions When system frequency reaches 59.8 hertz. Annunciator, UA-06, window 1-2. GEN Bus UNDER FREO RELAY is activated.
Operators are directed to respond per AOP-22.0, Generator Abnormal Frequency Conditions. This is done to stabilize loads on the system. One of the most probable causes of an under frequency condition would be the loss of another large generating unit, or units, when the on-line reserve capacity is inadequate for current system loads. Rapid response and close coordination with the load dispatcher are required to ensure system stability.
Abnormal frequency operation can develop resonant frequencies that may induce vibrations in the low pressure turbine blades. The vibration can cause turbine blades to fatigue and possibly fail during operation. The effect increases proportionally in relation to the magnitude of the frequency difference, and the length of time at the abnormal frequency.

AOP-32 was used to include plausibility of distractors.
Pedigree: Bank Objective: LOl-CLS-LP-302E, Obj. 6 Given plant conditions and entry into OAOP-32.0, Plant Shutdown From Outside Control Room, explain the basis for a specific caution, note, or series of procedure steps.
Reference:
None Cog Level: Fundamental Explanation: Following a reactor scram, the turbine control valves throttle shut in an effort to control RPV pressure at the setpoint of 928 psig. Without operator action, the turbine control valves will fully close, causing the generator to motor. Reverse power on the generator will cause a generator primary lockout and auto start of the diesel generators. The main turbine is therefore manually tripped to prevent it from automatically tripping on generator reverse power. This also reduces the number of cold start demands on the diesel generators.
Distractor Analysis:
Choice A: Plausible because a reactor scram is inserted as a step in the AOP, but it is performed earlier.
Choice B: Correct Answer, see explanation Choice C: Plausible because the procedure states to perform the step prior to exiting the control room but it could still be done at the turbine front standard.
Choice D: Plausible because this would allow use of the bypass valves, but MSIVs are manually closed prior to leaving the control room. This brings SRVs into operation. If MSIVs are not closed prior to leaving the control room, RPS EPA breakers are opened prior to establishing control at Remote Shutdown panel, which would close MSIVs.

REACTOR SCRAM PROCEDURE I 001-37.3 I BASIS DOCUMENT I Rev. 016 I Page 7of23 5.2 Step RSP-2 I
Perform crcim mmIiaLo actions.
I RSP2 Step RSP-2 includes the potential for multiple sensor and sensor relay failures in the automatic RPS logic where an automatic reactor scram should have initiated but did not. If needed a manual scram is inserted to accomplish an automatic action v.hich should have taken place. A manual reactor scram is also required when directed trom other EOP5 and no condition exists which would have automatically initiated a reactor scram (e.g., entry from PCCP because of high torus temperature).
Step RSP-2 also addresses other Reactor Operator scram immediate actions and includes:
- ARI initiation is an additional means of inserting controt rods if needed.
- Placing the reactor mode switch to shutdown. When the reactor mode switch is placed in SHUTDOWN position, a diverse and redundant reactor scram signal is generated by the RPS logic. If the mode switch is taken out of RUN prior to RPV pressure decreasing to 835 psig, The MSIV closure due to low main steam line pressure is prevented.
For Unit 2 only, if the mode switch is taken out of RUN when steam flow is above 33%, the MSIVs will close. Therefore, for Unit 2 the mode switch is placed in SHUTDOWN after steam flow is below 3xi0 lb/hr.
- Following a reactor scram, the turbine control valves throttle shut in an effort to control RPV pressure at the setpoint of 928 psig. Without operator action, the turbine control valves will fully close, causing the generator to motor. Reverse power on the generator will cause a generator primary lockout and auto start of the diesel generators. The main turbine is therefore manually rnpped to prevent it from automatically tripping on generator reverse power. This also reduces the number of cold start demands on the diesel generators.

Pedigree: Bank Objective: LOl-CLS-LP-304, Obj. 21 Explain why the Diesel Generator NORMAL/LOCAL switches must be placed in LOCAL in a particular sequence.
Reference:
None Cog Level: Fundamental
Explanation; The six switches in a row isolate DG2 engine and generator control circuitry from the control room (the fire area) since a fire induced fault in wiring in the fire area may result in loss of the DG. The seventh switch inserts redundant control power fuses to the circuitry that has been isolated in the event a fault has already resulted in blowing the normal fuses. This seventh switch must be turned last with the potentially faulted circuitry already isolated or the alternate fuses may also blow making the DG unavailable. The DG engine lockout is already tripped if the DG had been running since the operator is directed to trip the DG using emergency stop.
Of the first six switches, they include; Diesel START/STOP (2 switches) Diesel Governor (2 switches) Generator Voltage Regulation (2 switches)
Distractor Analysis; Choice A; Plausible because the six switches are placed in local first and the output breaker does have redundant control power fuses.

Voltage Adjust Switches Two three position (RAISE-NEUT-LOWER) spring return to NEUT switches are provided per engine to permit the adjustment of voltage regulators from the local panel regardless of EDG mode of operation.
The auto adjust switch is normally used.
ASSD Koylock Switches Brass handled two-position NORM LOCAL ASSD keylock switches on the local engine panels permit the operator to transfer control of the engine and generator to the local control panel. ASSD operations are performed when a fire exists in the plant and components required to be operated may be damaged by the fire.
These switches isolate control room controls and indications to isolate the EDG control circuitry from potential fire induced faults. There are six ASSD switches (2 for EDG mnlstop controls, 2 for governor controls, and 2 for voltage regulation controls) located on each local EDG panel. When in the IASSD!I mode, operation of the Diesel engine can only be accomplished by the LOCAL EMERGENCY STOP and LOCA1 EMERGENCY START pushbuttons.
In addition to the six ASSD switches, for EDG 2 and 4 only, there is a seventh ASSD switch located above the other six switches. This switch provides an alternate set of control power fuses for EDG control drwthy. This may be necessary since fire induced faults may have blown normal control fuses. When operating the ASSD switches for EDGs 2 or4, The seventh switch must be turned last after the potentially faulted circuitry has been isolated to prevent blowing the alternate fuses, making the EDG unavailable to provide paver to Safe Shutdown loads.

A. tripped, but can be overridden on.
B. tripped, and cannot be overridden on.
C. running, but can be tripped at the RTGB.
D. running, and cannot be tripped at the RTGB.
Answer: A K/A:
295020 Inadvertent Containment Isolation AAJ Ability to operate and/or monitor the following as they apply to INADVERTENT CONTAINMENT ISOLATION: (CFR: 41.7 / 45.6) 02 Drywell ventilation/cooling system ROISRO Rating: 3.2/3.2 Tier 1 I Group 2 K/A Match: This meets the K/A because it is testing what the DW coolers do on an isolation signal.
Pedigree: Bank Objective: LOl-CLS-LP-04, Obj. 20 Given plant conditions determine if the drywell coolers should auto start or trip
Reference:
None Cog Level: High Explanation: LOCA signal on LL3 closes Group 10 which fails dampers open, but also trips fan motors.
Override for LOCA trip can be performed as long as a LOCA does not really exist which is overridden in back panels (XU-271XU-28). The low level condition also is a scram signal which provides an auto start signal for the DW Coolers which is prioritized by the trip signal.
Distractor Analysis:
Choice A: Correct Answer, see explanation.
Choice B: Plausible because the fans do trip and if the conditions were different they would not be able to be overridden.
Choice C: Plausible because the fans do auto start on a scram signal or usually when the dampers are opened and under different conditions they would be able to be tripped from the RTGB.
Choice D: Plausible because the fans do auto start on a scram signal or usually when the dampers are opened and under different conditions they would not be able to be tripped from the RTGB.
SRO Basis: N/A Placing a Unit 2 DrW/elI Cooling Fan control switch in START causes the tans discharge damper to open. WI-lEN the discharge damper is full open, the fan Will start. The control switch should be held in the START position until the discharge damper is full open. The RBCW cooling water valve to the coils will open concurrently with a fan start.
Placing the Drywell Cooling lB Fan control switch in START causes the fans discharge damper to open. WHEN the discharge damper is full open, the fan will start. The control switch should be held in the START position until the fan starts. The common air inlet damper and The RBCCW cooling water valve to the coils will open concurrently with a fan start.
WHEN the control switch for Drywell Cooling Fan 1A, 1C, or 10 is placed in START, the associated fan starts and the discharge backdraff damper opens from the fan air flow. The discharge damper position indication does not input to the start logic for Drywell Cooling Fans IA, 1 C, and 1 D. The RBCCW cooling water valve to the coils will open concurrently with a fan start.
The Drywell Lower Vent dampers can be positioned to either MIN or MAX position by a two-position control switch on Panel XU-3. Normal plant operating position for these dampers is the MIN position. Placing these dampers to MAX position during plant operation may produce extreme temperature excursions in the upper dryvell regions. Low scram air header pressure will reposition these dampers to the MAX position and automatically start any idle drywell cooling fan selected for AUTO.
Drywell Cooler Override Switches, VA-CS-5993!5994, are provided in Panels XU-27128 to facilitate various modes of Diyweil cooler operation as required by the EOP5.
Tile Pneumatic Nitrogen System or Reactor Building Non-lntermptible Instrument Air pneumatically operates the drywell cooling fans discharge dampers. These dampers will fail open on loss of pneumatics. Unit 2 and lB drywell cooling fans discharge dampers fail closed on loss of the associated 120 VAC distribution panel.
A contactor in the associated fans 480 VAC breaker provides drywell cooler FAN ON indication on RTGB Panel XU-3.

Pedigree: Bank Objective: LOl-CLS-LP-002, Obj. 30 Given Plant conditions determine if the ATWS-RPT protection logic should have actuated
Reference:
None Cog Level: Fundamental Explanation: The Anticipated Transient Without Scram circuit provides an alternate means of reducing reactor power in the unlikely event that the control rods fail to insert into the core following a Reactor Protection System actuation signal. Tripping of the VFD Input Circuit Breakers (ICE) will rapidly reduce recirculation flow. This results in a rapid decrease in reactor power because of the voiding of the moderator.

Reference:
None Cog Level: fundamental Explanation: To prevent or mitigate the consequences of any large irregular neutron flux oscillations induced by neutronic/thermal-hydraulic instabilities, reactor water level is lowered sufficiently below the elevation of the feedwater sparger nozzles. This places the feedwater spargers in the steam space providing effective heating of the relatively cold feedwater and eliminating the potential for high core inlet subcooling. For conditions that are susceptible to oscillations, the initiation and growth of oscillations is principally dependent upon the subcooling at the core inlet; the greater the subcooling, the more likely oscillations will commence and increase in magnitude. Twenty-four inches below the lowest nozzle in the feedwater sparger (i.e. 90 inches) has been selected as the upper bound of the reactor water level control band. This water level is sufficiently low that steam heating of the injected water will be at least 65% to 75% effective (i.e., the temperature of the injected water will be increased to 65% to 75% of its equilibrium value in the steam environment). This water level is sufficiently high that even without bypassing the low reactor water level MSIV isolation, reactor water level can be controlled with the feedwater pumps to preclude the isolation.
Distractor Analysis:
Choice A: Plausible because since the operator can re-establish injection at 90 inches irrespective of power level. Power will lower as level is lowered but 90 inches will not guarantee APRMs are downscale Choice B: Correct Answer, see explanation.
Choice C: Plausible because since there is no current challenge to containment from heat input. If level is lowered due to containment heat input, 90 inches is not specified as the top of the level band.
This would be either TAF or the level at which downscales are received Choice D: Plausible because since lowering level will reduce natural circulation and reduce boron mixing.

This is accomplished by termination and prevention of injection systems, from identified systems, particularly feedwater, within 120 seconds.
To prevent or mitigate the consequences of any large irregular neutron flux oscillations induced by neutroniclthermal-hydraulic instabilities, RPV level is initially lowered sufficiently below the etevation of the feedwater sparger nozzles. This places the feedwater spargers in the steam space providing et[ective heating of the relatively cold feedwater and eliminating the potential for high core inlet subcooling. For conditions that are susceptible to oscillations, initiation and growth of oscillations is principally dependent upon subcooling at the core inlet; the greater the subcooling, the more likely oscillations will commence and increase in magnitude.

The conditions Iuich require entry to SCCP are symptomatic of conditions wtüch, if not colTected, could degrade into an emergency. Adverse effects on the operability of equipment located in the reactor building and conditions directly challenging secondary containment integnty or spent fuel pool cooling were specifically considered in the selection of these entry conditions. In addition, personnel accessibility to some of the areas may be required to perform certain actions specified in the procedure. This was also considered in making these determinations.
An area temperature or area differential temperature above its maximum normal operating level is an indication that steam from a primary system may be discharging into the reactor building. As temperatures continue to increase, the continued operability of equipment needed to carry out E0P actions may be compromised.

Reference:
None Cog Level: High
Explanation: IF conventional service water header pressure remains below 40 psig for 70 seconds, THEN:
- SW TO TBCCWHXS OTBD ISOL, SW-V3 closes to a throttled position
- SW TO TBCCWHXS INBD ISOL, SW-V4 closes to a throttled position The Standby CSW pump should start and restore CSW header pressure to normal prior to the SW valves throttling closed. If the standby CSW pump fails to auto start, manually starting the pump will restore CSW header pressure. AOP-19 provides guidance to re-open the SW valves only after header pressure has been restored and the cause of low pressure is known (pump trip).
Distractor Analysis: -
Choice A: Plausible because 30 seconds is when the DG cooling water valves close and a Scram is inserted only after the SW valves have closed to the throttled position AND CSW header pressure cannot be immediately restored above 40 psig under this condition all CSW pumps would be shutdown.
Choice B: Plausible because 30 seconds is when the DG cooling water valves close and system pressure restored by the STBY pump start is correct.
Choice C: Plausible because 70 seconds is correct and a Scram is inserted only after the SW valves have closed to the throttled position AND CSW header pressure cannot be immediately restored above 40 psig under this condition all CSW pumps would be shutdown.

In addition to the low header pressure auto start, the NSW pumps will start live seconds after receipt of a LOCA signal, regardless of mode selector switch or discharge valve position. For example, a Division I LOCA signal from either Unit 1 or Unit 2 will auto start the 1A and 2A NSW pumps; the Division II LOCA logic wilt auto start 16 and 26 NWS pumps.
The NSW pumps, powered through the 4160 VAC emergency buses, will also automatically start immediately after the start of the diesel generators and reenergization of the emergency buses on loss of off-site power (LOOP), regardless of mode selector switch or discharge valve position. For example, a Division I LOOP signal from either Unit 1 or Unit 2 will auto start the IA and 2A NSW pumps; the Division II LOOP logic will auto start 16 and 26 NSW pumps. If a LOCA signal exists on the division sensing the LOOP, auto start will occur after live seconds, provided that a LOOP signal is not present on the opposite unit. On a dual unit LOOP the NSW pump(s) of the LOCA (and non LOCA) unit start immediately after the emergency buses are reenergized by their respective diesel generators without the live second delay.

Pedigree: Previously used on the 2014 NRC exam Objective: LOl-CLS-LP-005, Obj 13 -
Predict the effect of the following on the Standby Liquid Control System, and based on those predictions use procedures to correct, control, or mitigate the consequences of those abnormal conditions or operations: a. Failure of one or both squib valves to fire.
Reference:
None Cog Level: Hi Explanation: The SLC squib valve continuity lights are normally lit and go out when fired on SLC initiation.
Per OP-05, if one squib valve fails to fire, two pump SLC operation may still continue provided reactor pressure is below 1184 psig, which it is not.
Distractor Analysis:
Choice A: Plausible because the student may think that the light is illuminated when the squib valve fires and securing 1 pump is correct.
Choice B: Plausible because the student may think that the light is illuminated when the squib valve fires and if reactor pressure was lower this would be correct.
Choice C: Correct Answer, see explanation Choice D: Plausible because the B squib did not fire and if reactor pressure was lower this would be correct.
SRO Basis: N/A NOTE: The SLC pump discharge relief valve should NOT actuate with two pumps operating and only one squib valve open unless reactor pressure exceeds 1184 psig, which is possible during an ATWS even with 10 SRVs open.
- 2. IF SLC A SQUIB VALVE CONTINUITY OR SLC B SQUIB VALVE CONTINUITY indicating light on Panel P603 remains on AND reactor pressure is greater than or equal to 1184 psig, THEN PERFORM the following:

RC/SRC Rating: 3.8/4.0 Tier 2 / Group 1 K/A match: This question meets the K/A because an emergency condition exists in the stem (ED followed by no HP injection/building inaccesible). In addition, the SRC is required to have knowledge of the local emergency procedure and that it contains actions the AC must take in the field in order to inject (AC must locally open demin keepfill bypass valves for various injection sources). Contrasting the given conditions, the procedural knowledge of AC field actions, and system knowledge of valve locations will have the operational effect of determining which injection source is viable.
Pedigree: New Cbjective: LCI-CLS-LP-300-J Cbj 4a Given plant conditions, determine which system should be utilized to restore RPV water level and/or pressure when executing the following:
- a. Alternate Cooling Injection Procedure with ECP-01-LEP-01.
Reference:
None Cog Level: High
Explanation: Demineralized water injection requires knowledge from the LEP that the system Keepfill Bypass Valves are to be opened. The only keepfill Ipypass valve that is not inaccessible is the Core Spray Loop A Keepfill Bypass valve. Therefore, Core Spray Loop A is the section to use in order to inject demin water to the RPV.
Distractor Analysis:
Choice A: Correct answer, see explanation.
Choice B: Plausible because it is a section in 2.4.3, it is incorrect because the keepfill bypass valve for RHR loop A is inaccessible.
Choice C: Plausible because it is a section in 2.4.3, it is incorrect because the keepfill bypass valve for HPCI is inaccessible.
Choice D: Plausible because it is a section in 2.4.3, it is incorrect because the keepfill bypass valve for RCIC is inaccessible.

Reference:
TS 3.3.1.1 Cog Level: High
Explanation: Part I When group lights are OFF that is indication that the solenoid valves are de-energized. All groups remain lit therefore, they are energized. Part 2 ONLY Condition A and C are required to be entered, due to a failure of the A3 scram channel. Only one required channel is inoperable, but a loss of manual scram function has occurred resulting in RPS trip capability not maintained.
Distractor Analysis:
Choice A: Part I is the correct Answer, see explanation. Part 2 is plausible because Groups I through 4 are also in trip System B (although for the SV-1 18s), a novice applicant may assume that failure of these solenoids in Trip System A would mean they would not function in Trip System B. In addition, one channel per trip system is required, and since there are only lights for groups 1 through 4 in both trip systems, a novice applicant may assume that all required channels are mop.
Choice B: Correct Answer, see explanation.
Choice C: Part I is plausible because ARI system uses energize to function valves. Part 2 is plausible because Groups 1 through 4 are also in trip System B (although for the SV-1 18s), a novice applicant may assume that failure of these solenoids in Trip System A would mean they would not function in Trip System B. In addition, one channel per trip system is required, and since there are only lights for groups 1 through 4 in both trip systems, a novice applicant may assume that all required channels are mop.

TS 3.6.1.3 Cog Level: High Explanation: Part 1: Tip Valves are Group 2 PCIVs. Part 2: Squib Valve Monitor Light On indicates that the squib valve continuity is lost. Therefore, The Shear Valve in the Ball valve and shear valve assembly is inoperable. The ball valve remains operable. Therefore, Condition A is entered for one PCIV inoperable.
Distractor Analysis:
Choice A: Correct Answer, see explanation.
Choice B: Part 1 is plausible because it is correct, see explanation. Part 2 is plausible because squib Valve Monitor Light On indicates that the squib valve continuity is lost.

4.0 SYSTEM OPERATION 4.1 Normal Operational Relationships TIP traces are required to he performed periodically. Technical Specifications require calitration of LPRM detectors at least once every effective full power month (EFPM). Traces are done to obtain new Gain Adjustment Factors (GAF) as calculated by the process computer for each LPRM. These GAFs can be used to adjust the current applied to the LPRM detectors. Current adjustment is required due to loss of detector sensitivity which results from exposure to the fission process in the core. The TIP Detector is run through the dry tube within the LPRM assembly containing the LPRM to tJe calibrated. A comparison is made between the TIP output and the existing LPRM reading and a GAF is calculated. The current applied to the LPRM detector is adjusted, it necessary.
TIP Detector calibration is also periodically required. Capability for calibration of TIP probes is provided by a common channel which can align each TIP to the center LPRM assembly (28-29) (Figure 09.5-15) and TIP Dry Tube. Each TIP is run through the center LPRM assembly. Readings from the TIPs are compared and the gains are adjusted to meet an average value of the four TIP readings and so that the gains for the TIP channels fall within a specified band.
The TIP System can be operated in an Automatic mode or a Manual mode.
OP-09.1 in conjunction with OENP-24,f 5 covers precautions, initial conditions, and specific instructions related to the operation of the TIP System.
Regardless of the mode of operation there are some precautions that must be observed. The TIP Machine should never be fumed off with the detector inserted past the TIP Ball Valve. This conditions prevents the isolation logic from retracting the detector and closing the TIP Ball Valve should an isolation signal be received. Also, the TIP Machines should not be left unattended if the detectors are in motion.
41.1 Automatic Operation Sequence The mode switch on the selected Drive Control Unit is placed in AUTO and the manual switch and low speed switch remain in OFF. This gives a permissive to the TIP logic to be wn automatically.
The auto start pushbutton (Drive Control Unit) is then pressed. The detector will automatically move from Shield Chamber to the entrance of the Indexer at low speed f37sec or 15 Wmin) and will then stop.

Offsite power is supplied to the 230 kV switchyards from the transnjission network by eight transmission lines. From the 230 kV switchyards, two qualified electrically and physically separated circuits provide AC power, through either a startup auxiliary transformer (SAT) or backteedthg via a unit auxiliary transformer (UAT), to 4.16 kV BOP buses. A single circuit path fmastertslave breakers and interconnecting cables) from each BOP bus provides offsite power to its associated downstream 4.16kV emergency bus. A detailed description of the offsite power network and circuits to the onsite Class IE emergency buses is found in the UFSAR.
Sections 8.2 and 8.3 (Ref. 2).
A qualified offsite circuit consists of all breakers, transformers, switches, interrupting devices, cabling, and controls required to transmit power from either 230 kV bus (bus A or B) to the onsite Class 1 E emergency buses.
The Unit I main generator provides the nomial source of power to 4.16 kV emergency buses El and E2 via its respective UAT. The Unit 2 main generator provides the normal source of power to 4.16 kV emergency buses E3 and E4 via its respective UAT. In the event of a Brunswick Unit I B 3.8.1-1 Revision No. 31 I AC SourcesOperating B 3.8.1 BASES BACKGROUND unit trip, an automatic transfer from the normal circuit (main generator (continued) output via the UAT) to the respective unit SAT occurs resulting in the SAT supplying power to two 4.16 kV emergency buses. As such, the Unit 1 SAT provides the preferred source of power to emergency buses El and E2 and the Unit 1 UAT (backfeed mode) is the alternate source of power to emergency buses El and E2. The Unit 2 SAT provides the preferred source of power to emergency buses E3 and E4 and the Unit 2 UAT (backfeed mode) is the alternate source of power to emergency buses E3 and E4. Each UAT can only be considered a qualified offsite source if it is capable of being powered from the 230 kV switchyard fRet 3).

The applicant must determine that the effect of the stuck open vacuum breaker on the SRV is that it is now bypassing the pressure suppression function and discharging directly into the DW.
The applicant must also determine that the ultimate effect of the given conditions is that the RCS barrier has been lost, and that the consequences of this conditions and its potential effects on the health and safety of the public are mitigated by declaring an ALERT lAW with OPEP-2. 1.
Pedigree: New Objective: LOl-CLS-LP-020 Obj 1 5e Given plant conditions, predict how ADS/SRVs will be affected by the following: Failure of the SRV tailpipe vacuum breakers.
Reference:
OPEP-02.1
Cog Level: High Explanation: Part 1: SRV tailpipe vacuum breakers relieve to the drywell, therefore a stuck open tailpipe breaker with a stuck open SRV would discharge steam directly into the drywell. Part 2: With a stuck open relief valve and stuck open vacuum breaker, a LOCA is occurring. With Torus pressure sufficient to warrant drywell sprays (1 1.5 psig) drywell pressure has more than exceeded 1 .7 psig. Therefore the conditions for a loss of the RCS barrier ( Primary Containment Pressure >1 .7psig due to RCS leakage) are met and an ALERT should be declared based on FA1.1 loss of RCS battier.
Distractor Analysis:
Choice A: Correct Answer, see explanation.
Choice B: Part I is plausible because it is correct, see explanation. Part 2 is plausible because a group 1 isolation has occurred which is a primary containment isolation signal, an unisolable LOCA is occurring, and a novice candidate might assume that this meets the conditions for a loss of the containment barrier (Unisolable direct downstream pathway to the environment exists after primary containment isolation signal), this loss coupled with the loss in the explanation would meet the criteria for a loss of two barriers, and a declaration of an SAE lAW FS1 .1 They also might think that this condition would not be consistent with a LOCA.
Choice C: Part 1 is Plausible because with a failed open Suppression Chamber to Drywell Vacuum Breaker would allow DW steam to go directly to the suppression Chamber Air Space. in addition, a failed open SRV with a broken tailpipe and broken downcomer would directly pressurize the torus air space. Part 2 is plausible because it is correct, see explanation.
Choice D: Part 1 is Plausible because with a failed open Suppression Chamber to Drywell Vacuum Breaker would allow DW steam to go directly to the suppression Chamber Air Space. in addition, a failed open SRV with a broken tailpipe and broken downcomer would directly pressurize the torus air space. Part 2 is plausible because a group 1 isolation has occurred which is a primary containment isolation signal, an unisolable LOCA is occurring, and a novice candidate might assume that this meets the conditions for a loss of the containment barrier (Unisolable direct downstream pathway to the environment exists after primary containment isolation signal), this loss coupled with the loss in the explanation would meet the criteria for a loss of two barriers, and a declaration of an SAE lAW FS1 .1. They also might think that this condition would not be consistent with a LOCA.
SRO Basis: Assessment of facility conditions and selection of appropriate procedures during normal, abnormal, and emergency situations.

4.2.7 Containment Response with Vacuum Breaker Failure
- 1. Suppression Chamber to Drywell Vacuum Breakers Failed Open Steam flows from drywell to suppression chamber through the open vacuum breakers equalizing pressure between the two immediately.
The steam is not forced through the water of the suppression pool:
therefore it will operate only as a surface condenser. As a result, the drywell pressure will probably exceed the design pressure. To prevent this occurrence, light indication is provided for each vacuum breaker. It indicates if the va]ve is off its seat and is displayed in the Control Room.
- 2. Suppression Chamber to Drywell Vacuum Breakers Failed Closed The steam in the drywell will condense and drjweLl pressure will decrease. With vacuum breakers failed shut, pressure cannot equalize between the suppression pool and the dryNell. The pressure in the drywell may decrease such that the suppression chamber to drywell differential pressure limit (10 psid) is exceeded.
Vent pipe buckling can occur if suppression chamber pressure is 10 psia greater than drywell pressure. To prevent this situation, the vacuum breakers are operationally checked periodically and 133%
capacity is provided with ten vacuum breakers.

Reference:
1.8. 3.3.5.1 Cog Level: High Explanation: Part 1: With the plant at rated power and torus cooling in service on loop A, RHR loop A is not
in its normal standby lineup. The loss of Div I RHR relay logic power, will result in the failure of the A loops suppression cooling valves (f024128) to automatically close on a LPCI initiation.
However, the FOl 5A will auto open from the div 2 logic. Part 2: The loss of power to the Div I RHR logic will result in the loss of the functions applicable to condition C.
Distractor Analysis:
Choice A: This is the Correct answer, see explanation.
Choice B: Part 1 is plausible because a novice candidate might believe the note that required action B.2.
is only applicable to functions 3a and 3b also applies to condition 6.3. Part 2 is plausible because it is correct, see explanation.
Choice C: Part 1 is plausible because it is correct, see explanation. Part 2 is plausible because a candidate might believe a loss of Div I logic would prevent the auto function of the FOl 5a, since the F024 and F028 will not automatically close under these conditions.
Choice D: Part 1 is plausible because a novice candidate might believe the note that required action B.2.
is only applicable to functions 3a and 3b also applies to condition 8.3. Part 2 is plausible because a candidate might believe a loss of Div I logic would prevent the auto function of the FO1 5a, since the F024 and F028 will not automatically close under these conditions.

In this case, since the impact of the failure is DW pressure increasing> 1 .7 psig, the specific impact on SBGT is that it can not be used to vent containment. The procedure to mitigate the consequences of the failure is the leak is required to be isolated using SEP-16.
(NOTE: the conditions are NOT entry conditions for the procedures)
Pedigree: New Objective: LOl-CLS-LP-046A Obj 13. Predict the effect that a loss or malfunction of the Pneumatic System would have on plant operation.
Reference:
None Cog Level: High Explanation: With drywell pressure >1.7 psig, 2OP-10 cannot be used to vent the drywell. SBGT has automatically started at 1.7 psig. With drywell pressure> 1 .7 psig, PCCP directs the use of SEP-16 to isolate containment leaks, and SEP 16 contains the steps to isolate DIV I pneumatics.
Distractor Analysis:
Choice A: Part 1 is plausible because PCCP directs 20P-10 to control DW pressure <1.7 psig. Part 2 is plausible because it is correct, see explanation.
Choice B: Part 1 is plausible because PCCP directs 20P-1 0 to control DW pressure <1.7 psig. Part 2 is plausible because AOP-20 directs the isolation of various pneumatic sources, but while executing the EOPs the EOPs take precedence.
Choice C: Correct Answer, see explanation.
Choice D: Part 1 is plausible because it is correct, see explanation. Part 2 is plausible because AOP-20 directs the isolation of various pneumatic sources, but while executing the EOP5 the EOPs take precedence.

Pedigree: New Objective: LOl-CLS-LP-030 Obj 9 Given plant conditions and Technical Specifications, including the Bases, TRM, ODCM and COLR, determine the required action(s) to be taken in accordance with Technical Specifications, the TRM or ODCM associated with the Condenser Air Removal/Augmented Offgas System.
Reference:
ODCM 7.3.10 Cog Level: High
Explanation: Part 1: With XCV-142 remaining open the probable cause for UA-48 (5-4) is off gas flow high, all other conditions (besides circuit failure) for this alarm would cause a closure of the XCV-142. Part 2: with UA-48 (5-4) in alarm, HCV-102 is open. This would bypass the AOG portion of the Gaseous Radwaste Treatment System, leading to reduced hold up times and increased main stack rad levels. ODCM 7.3.10 requires AOG in operation so the comp measure is required.
Distractor Analysis:
Choice A: Part 1 is plausible because high-high cooler condenser condensate level would also cause UA-48 (5-4) to alarm, but it would also close the XCV-142. Part 2 is plausible because it is correct, see explanation.
Choice B: Part 1 is plausible because high-high cooler condenser condensate level would also cause UA-48 (5-4) to alarm, but it would also close the XCV-142. Part 2 is plausible because with the opening of the HCV-1 02, an additional flowpath is provided around the charcoal adsorbers and the normal flowpath remains in service.
Choice C: This is the Correct answer, see explanation.
Choice D: Part 1 is plausible because it is correct, see explanation. Part 2 is plausible because with the opening of the HCV-1 02, an additional flowpath is provided around the charcoal adsorbers and the normal flowpath remains in service.

Reference:
None Cog Level: High
Explanation: Two recirculation loops ate normally required to be in operation with their flows matched within the limits specified in SR 3.4.1.1 to ensure that that during a LOCA caused by a break of the piping of one recirculation loop the assumptions of the LOCA analysis are satisfied. Jet pump loop flow mismatch should be maintained within the following limits:
-jet pump loop flows within 10% (maximum indicated difference 6.0 x106 lbs/hr) with total core flow less than 57.5 x106 lbs/hr
-jet pump loop flows within 5% (maximum indicated difference 3.0 x106 lbs/hr) with total core flow greater than or equal to 57.5 x106 lbs/hr Distractor Analysis:
Choice A: Correct Answer, see explanation Choice B: Plausible because flow mismatch is within limits for lower reactor power level and because the belief that the higher flow loop will experience excessive vibration could cause them to select the
°hig her flow response.
Choice C: Plausible because flow mismatch is not within limits for a higher reactor power level. Part 2 is correct.
Choice D: Plausible because flow mismatch is not within limits for a higher reactor power level. Part 2 is plausible because the belief that the higher flow loop will experience excessive vibration could cause them to select the higher flow response.
SRO Basis: Facility operating limitations in the TS and their bases. [10 CFR 55.43(b)(2)]. The candidate is required to determine whether jet pump flow is within the limits and then use TS bases information to determine which loop is considered not in operation.

Re circulation Loops Operating B 3.41 BASES (continued)
SURVEILLANCE SR 3.4.1.1 REQUIREMENTS This SR ensures the recirculation loops are within the allowable limits for mismatch. At low core flow (i.e., 75% of rated core flow), the MCPR requirements provide laiger margins to the fuel cladding integrity Safety Limit such that the potential adverse effe of early boiling transition during a LOCA Is reduced. A larger flow mismatch can, therefore, be allowed when core flow is <75% of rated core flow. The redrculation loop jet pump flow, as used in this Surveillance, is the summation of the flows from all of the jet pumps assodated with a single rodrculation loop.
The mismatch is measured in terms of the percent of rated core flow. If the flow mismatch exceeds the specified limits, the loop with the lower flow is considered not in operation. The SR is not required when both loops are not in operation since the mismatch limits are meeningless during single loop or natural circulation operation. The Surveillance must be performed within 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> after both loops are in operation.

Given plant conditions and any of the following AOPs, determine the requited supplementary actions: AOP-36. 1.
Reference:
None Cog Level: High
Explanation: With a loss of all offsite power the E-Buses will strip the loads (CRD Pumps), there are no auto starts for these pumps, so both CRD pumps will be off. DG1 is lost which means El is lost and A CRD pump will not be able to be started. The 15 does however have power, and can be restarted. The steps for restart are located in the OP, and AOP2.0, however they are not located in A0P36.l. DG-2 and DG3 provide power to the I B and 2A CRD Pumps. The DG4 loss is a loss of the 2B CRD pump.
Distractor Analysis:
Choice A: Part 1 is plausible because the JA CRD pump is tripped but it cannot be re-started due to El remaining de-energized (DG1 Locked ouot on fault). In addition, Unit 2 has power for the 2A CRD pump.

Ths is accomplished by termiraticn and prevention & injection systems. from identified systems, paticuIaiyfeedwatw within 120 seconds.
To prevent or mitigate the consequences of any lage irregular neuton flux oscillations induced by neuoonicthenial-hydrauld instabilities, RPV level is initially lowered sufficiently below the elevat;on of the kedwaterspsger nozzles. This place the feedwater spagers in the steam space providing effective heating of the retatively cold feedwater and eltininating the potential for high core inlet subcoding. For ocndticns that are susceptible to oscillations, initiation and groMh of oscillations is principally dependent upon subcocling at the core inlet the greater the subcooling. the more likely oscillations will commence and increase in magnitude.
If reactor power is at or below the APRM downsc.ale mp setpisnt (2%), ft is highly unirkely that the core bulk boiling bounday would be below that which provides sritable stability margin for operation at high powers and low flows. (A minimum b&rng boundary cr14 ft above the bottom of active fuel has been shown to be effective as a stabllrty control because a relatively long two-phase c&umn is required to develop a coupled neutonic! thermal-hydrautc instability.) Furthermore, flow!density variations would be limited with reactor power this low since the core has a relatively low average void content.

This allows sufftciert time for Hot Shutdown Boron Weight (HSBW) of boron to be injected As long as the core remans submerged (the preferred method of core cooling), fuel integrity and RPV integrttyae not directly challenged even wider failure-to-scram conditions. A scram failureccupled with an M3PJ isolation however, result in rapid heatip of the torus due to the steam dischsged from the RPV era SRVs. The challenae to containment thus becomes the tinwing factor which defines the reqi irernwit for boron injection.
if tows temperatire and RPJ pressure cannot be maintained betters the Heat Capacity Temperature Limit 4HCU), rapid depressurizaton of the RPV will be required. To avoid depressudring the RPV with the reactcr at power, it is desirable to shut down the reactor prior to reaching HCTL, thL,s minirrizing the quantity of heat rejected to the tows. The Boron Injection Initiation Temperature (BItT) is defined so as to achieve ths when practicable.

Terminating and preventing injection from:
- Condensate and Feedwater is addressed in IOP-32 (20P.321, Condensate And Feedwater System Operating Procedure, and covers terminating and preventing ejection by either hipping budt Reactor Feed Pumps (RFPs) or by idling one RFP.
- Core Spray is accomplished bytnpping the associated Ccre Spray ioops operating pump.
- HPCI is addressed ti, iop-ig (QP19j, High Pressure Ccolar,t Injection System Operating Procedure, and covers tentinating and preventing injection when HPCI is either operating or not operating.
The Boron Injection Initiation Temperature (BItT) a function reactor power and is the torus temperature before which boron injection must be initiated if a reactor depressurizabon, due to exceeding the Heat Capacity Temperature Limit (HCTL). is to be precluded. This temperature is 11 OF.
The combination of high reactor power (above the APRM dcwiscale hip),
high torus temperature (above BItT), and an open SRV or high drpisll pressure (above the scram setpoint). are symptomatic of heat being rejected to the torus at a rate in excess of that which can be removed by the torus coding system. Unless mitigated, these conditions ultimately result in loss of NPSH for ECCS pimps taking suction on the torus, containment overpressztzation, and (ultimately) loss of Pnmaty Containment integrity, which in turn could lead to a loss dl adequate core cooling and uncontrofted release of radioactivity to the environment.
The conditions listed in Table 0-2. combried with the inabiitty to shut down the reactor through control rod insertion, dictate a requirement to pcorrØy further reduce reactor pcwer in order to preserve Primaty Containment integrity since, as long as these conthiorw exist. torus heatup wIt contfnue.
Since RPV level is only atowed to drop to TAF before injection is restarted.
if RPV level is already below TAF. then the jective of the step has been accomplished. Further lowering of RPV level is not necessaty, and the steps which deliberately lower RPV level e bypassed.

APPLICABILITY: During movement of irradiated fuel assemblies in the spent fuel storage pool.
B 3.9 REFUELING OPERATIONS B 3.9.6 Reactor Pressure Vessel (RPV) Water Level BASES BACKGROUND The movement of fuel assemblies or handling of control rods within the RPV requires a minimum water level of 23 ft above the top of irradiated fuel assemblies seated within the RPV. During refueling, this maintains a sufficient water level in the reactor vessel. Sufficient water is necessary to retain iodine fission product activity in the water in the event of a fuel handling accident (Refs. 1 and 2). Sufficient iodine activity would be retained to limit offsite doses from the accident to well below the 10 CFR 50.67 exposure guidelines (Ref. 3).
APPLICABLE During movement of fuel assemblies or handling of control rods, the SAFETY ANALYSES water level in the RPV is an initial condition design parameter in the analysis of a fuel handhng accident in containment postulated by Regulatory Guide 1.183 (Ref. 1). A minimum water level of 23 ft allows a decontamination factor of 200 to be used in the accident analysis for iodine (Ref. 1). This relates to the assumption that 99.5% of the total iodine released from the pellet to cladding gap of all the damaged fuel assembly rods is retained by the water.
Analysis of the fuel handling accident loside containment is described in Reference 2. With a minimum water level of 23 ft and a minimum decay time of 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> prior to fuel handling, the analysis and test programs demonstrate that the iodine release due to a postulated fuel handling accident is adequately captured by the water and that offsite doses are maintained well below the allowable limits of Reference 3.
RPV water level satisfies Criterion 2 of 10 CFR 50.36(c)(2)(H) (Ref. 4).

5.2.1 Step RRCP-2 First Override Continued personnel access to the turbine building may be essential for responding to emergencies or transients which may degrade into emergencies. The turbine l)uilding is not an air tight structure, and radioactivity release inside the turbine building would not only limit personnel access but would eventually lead to an unmonitored ground level release, or release via the turbine building ventilation if operating in the once-through lineup.
Operation of the turbine building ventilation in the recircutation lineup helps to improve turbine building accessibility. In addion, since both units share a common turbine building airspace, if the building is intact, removing turbine building ventilation from once through lineup will temiinate a large unfiltered volume discharge flow path for a leak on either unit. Due to normal operational requirements when in once through lineup, at least one Air Filter Exhaust Fan and WRGM will be in service providing a monitored and filtered discharge flowpath.

(CFR: 41.10/43.5/45.13) 07 Whether malfunction is due to common-mode electrical failures RO/SRO Rating: 2.6/3.0 Tier 1 / Group 1 K/A match: THIS QUESTION WAS PRE-SUBMIHED FOR APPROVAL.
The applicant is required to determine that based on a fire in the MCR requiring evacuation, common mode failures of electrical equipment could occur and interpret the procedure steps that require exiting ASSD-01 and entering the standalone ASSD-02. In addition, the applicant will determine which train of ASSD equipment (HPCI/RCIC) will remain unaffected by the potential common mode electrical failure.
Pedigree: Modified 14 NRC Objective: LOI-CLS-LP-301 Obj 20 Given a fire in an ASSD area, describe the potential impact that the fire may have on Safe Shutdown Equipment
Reference:
None Cog Level: Fundamental Explanation: Part 1: OASSD-02, Control Building, is an outside Control Room shutdown procedure for both units. This procedure is a stand-alone post fire shutdown procedure for a Control Room evacuation and requires the reactors to be in hot shutdown/manually scrammed prior to
leaving the Control Room. There are parts of the control building that this procedure is not used for, i.e. battery rooms. Part 2: The safe shutdown strategy for control room evacuation requires the B train of ASSD equipment (RCIC).
Distractor Analysis:
Choice A: Part 1 is plausible because it is correct, see explanation. Part 2 is plausible because the A train of Safe shutdown equipment (HPCI) is used in other ASSDs.
Choice B: Correct Answer, see explanation Choice C: Part I is plausible because for every other ASSD fire OASSD-01 is performed concurrently with specific ASSD sub procedures. Part 2 is plausible because the A train (HPCI) of Safe shutdown equipment is used in other ASSDs.
Choice D: Part 1 is plausible because for every other ASSD fire OASSD-01 is performed concurrently with specific ASSD sub procedures. Part 2 is plausible because it is correct, see explanation.
SRO Basis: Assessment of facility conditions and selection of appropriate procedures during normal, abnormal, and emergency situations. [10 CFR 55.43(b)(5)]. requires the SRO applicant to decide the appropriate transition to an event specific subprocedure based on fire in the control building.

Distractor Analysis:
Choice A: Parti is plausible because this is correct, see explanation. Part 2 is plausible because this would be the lower limit if no band was established for SDC in MODE 4.
Choice B: Correct Answer, see explanation Choice C: Part 1 is plausible because 254 inches is the level of the MSLs and could be confused with Natural Circulation level due to the requirement to be at this level during alternate SDC.

With the plant in Cold Shutdown, RPV water level is normally maintained above the RPV tow level scram setpoint of 166 in. above TAF (ref. 1, 3). However, if RPV level is being controlled below the RPV low level scram setpoint, or if level is being maintained in a designated band in tile reactor vessel it is tile inability to maintain level above the low end of the designated control band due to a loss of inventory resulting from a leak in the RCS that is the concern.

Explanation: Part 1: Per 001-01.01, When any ECCS Room Cooler is determined to be INOPERABLE, then the ECCS equipment associated with that room cooler is to be declared INOPERABLE per the applicable Technical Specifications. Part 2: Per AD-OP-ALL-i 000, the breaker should only be reset once the condition is identified and corrected, and plant conditions dictate the reset before maint and eng personnel are available.
Distractor Analysis:
Choice A: Part 1 is plausible, because the room cooler is not part of the Core Spray system listed in the tech spec bases. Part 2 is plausible because during transient conditions the breaker could be reset, however, the plant is in a stable condition.
Choice B: Part 1 is plausible, because the room cooler is not part of the Core Spray system listed in the tech spec bases. Part 2 is correct, see explanation.
Choice C: Part 1 is correct, see explanation. Part 2 is plausible because during transient conditions the breaker could be reset, however, the plant is in a stable condition.

5.19.1 Standards
- 1. Protective devices should not be reset without a clear understanding of the reason for the protective device trip.
- 2. The overriding priority for the operating crew upon the trip of any protective device is to stabilize the plant and restore the systems to the safest possible condition.
5.19.2 Expectations
- 1. Protection devices which have actuated (breakers, fuses, bistables, MOV themial overloads, lockouts, etc.) should only be restored with shift supervision approval, under the following conditions. The following conditions do not apply to 120 volt breakers that only supply lighting or receptacles.
- a. The cause of The actuation has been identified and corrected.
- b. Restoring the protective device is not recommended unless plant conditions dictate that the component repositioning must be completed before Maintenance and Engineering personnel are available. Remote operation of the component with no personnel in the immediate area after resetting the protective device is recommended if repositioning is required prior to completion of The evaluation by Maintenance and Engineering.
- 2. The SM may approve additional protective device resetting after consultation with Engineering.

- The following step is not required to be performed if the ECCS Room Cooler is INOPERABLE due to the toss of a 4160V or 480V E-Bus. E-Bus INOPERABILITY impacts the OPERABILITY of ECCS subsystems. Technical Specifications and the SFDP will provide Requited Actions to be taken for the loss of the E-Bus.
- In Mode 4 and Mode 5, ECCS Room Coolers are not required to be OPERABLE to support OPERABILITY of the associated ECCS Systems.
- a. When any ECCS Room Cooter is determined to be INOPERABLE, then the ECCS equipment associated with that room cooler is to be declared INOPERABLE per the applicable Technical Specifications.
EXAMPLE The RHR Room Coolers are to be considered redundant components required to support the operation of RHR. Therefore, should a room cooler be found or made INOPERABLE, a 7 day Active LCO is required to be established on the RHR system. Likewise, should both room coolers be found INOPERABLE, the action required is the same as if both RHR loops and HPCI were INOPERABLE. Should it be identified that one RHR Room Cooler is INOPERABLE and one RHR Loop is also INOPERABLE (specific combinations do not matter), the action is as if only one RHR Loop is INOPERABLE (7 days).

None Cog Level: High Explanation: Part 1: Following the H2 leg of the PCCP with the given conditions will drive you to step PC/G-9 which directs you to Vent Containment per EOP-01 -SEP-01, since H2 is the driving condition for venting, then section 2.2 is the appropriate section to implement. Part 2: lAW SEP-01, the torus is vented first as long as the torus water level is less than 6 feet.
Distractor Analysis:
Choice A: Part 1 is plausible because H2 concentration is less than the entry limit into PCCP (entry at 1.5%), and Containment pressure is >11 .5 psig (pressure for DW sprays), therefore a novice applicant might believe that the appropriate procedure section required is for containment pressure control. Part 2 is plausible since venting of the drywell is performed first if torus water level is >6 feet.

Discussion The 10 CER 50.72 reporting requirement is intended to capture those events for which TS require the initiation of reactor shutdown to provide the NRC with early warning of safety-significant conditions serious enough to warrant that the plant be shut down. For 10 CFR 50.72 reporting purposes, the phrase initiation of any nuclear plant shutdown includes action to start reducing reactor power; i.e., adding negative reactivity to achieve a nuclear plant shutdown requited by TS. This includes initiation of any shutdown due to expected inability to restore equipment prior to exceeding the LCO action time. As a practical matter, in order to meet the time limits for reporting under 10 CFR 50.72, the reporting decision should sometimes be based on such expectations. (See Example 4.)
The initiation of any nuclear plant shutdown does not include mode changes required by TS if they are initiated after the plant is already in a shutdown condition.
A reduction in power for some other purpose, not constituting initiation of a shutdown required by TS, is not reportable under this criterion.
For 10 CFR 50.73 reporting purposes, the phrase completion of any nuclear plant shutdown is defined as the point in time during a TS-required shutdown when the plant enters the first shutdown condition required by an LCO (e.g., hot standby (Mode 3) for PWRs with the Standard Technical Specifications (STS)). For example, if at 0200 hours0.00231 days <br />0.0556 hours <br />3.306878e-4 weeks <br />7.61e-5 months <br /> a plant enters an LCO action statement that states, restore the inoperable channel to operable status within 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> or be in at least Hot Standby within the next 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br />, the plant must be shut down (i.e., at least in hot standby) by 2000 hours0.0231 days <br />0.556 hours <br />0.00331 weeks <br />7.61e-4 months <br />. An LER is required if the inoperable channel is not returned to operable status by 2000 hours0.0231 days <br />0.556 hours <br />0.00331 weeks <br />7.61e-4 months <br /> and the plant enters hot standby.
An LER is not required if a failure was or could have been corrected before a plant has completed shutdown (as discussed above) and no other criteria in 10 CFR 50.73 apply.
