2013 DRESDEN NUCLEAR POWER STATION INITIAL LICENSE EXAMINATION PROPOSED EXAM FILES ES-301 Operating Test Quality Checklist Form ES-301-3 Facility:
Dresden Units 2 & 3 Date of Examination:
10/21/2013 Operating Test Number: Initials 1. General Criteria a b* c# a. The operating test conforms with the previously approved outline; changes are consistent with c.QI1 NIA uv sampling requirements (e.g., 10 CFR 55.45, operational importance, safety function distribution). b. There is no day-to-day repetition between this and other operating tests to be administered CiJ"1 NIA during this examination.
- c. The operating test shall not duplicate items from the applicants' audit test(s). (see Section D.1.a.) Of!'? NIA
- d. Overlap with the written examination and between different parts of the operating test is within !cO? NIA acceptable limits. e. It appears that the operating test will differentiate between competent and less-than-competent NIA applicants at the designated license level. 2. Walk-Through Criteria ------a. Each JPM includes the following, as applicable:
NIA . initial conditions . initiating cues . references and tools, including associated procedures . reasonable and validated time limits (average time allowed for completion) and specific designation if deemed to be time-critical by the facility licensee . operationally important specific performance criteria that include: COJ -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 task -identification of critical steps and their associated performance standards
-restrictions on the sequence of steps, if applicable
- b. Ensure that any changes from the previously approved systems and administrative walk-through NIA outlines (Forms ES-301-1 and 2) have not caused the test to deviate from any of the acceptance cry criteria (e.g., item distribution, bank use, repetition from the last 2 NRC examinations) specified on those forms and Form ES-201-2.
- 3. Simulator Criteria ------The associated simulator operating tests (scenario sets) have been reviewed in accordance with CP7 NIA Form ES-301-4 and a copy is attached.

ES-301 Simulator Scenario Quality Checklist Form ES-301-4 Units 2 & 3 Date of Exam: October 21, 2013 Scenario Numbers: 1 I 2 I 3 QUALITATIVE ATTRIBUTES Initials a b* c# 1. The initial conditions are realistic, in that some equipment and/or instrumentation may be out 01'7 N/A of service, but it does not cue the operators into expected events. 2. The scenarios consist mostly of related events. Clh; N/A / 3. Each event description consists of N/A
- the point in the scenario when it is to be initiated
- the malfunction(s) 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)
- 4. No more than one non-mechanistic failure (e.g., pipe break) is incorporated into the scenario N/A without a credible preceding incident such as a seismic event. 5. The events are valid with regard to physics and thermodynamics. N/A
- 6. Sequencing and timing of events is reasonable, and allows the examination team to obtain C"J N/A complete evaluation results commensurate with the scenario objectives.
- 7. If time compression techniques are used, the scenario summary clearly so indicates.
N/A Operators have sufficient time to carry out expected activities without undue time constraints.
diJ Cues are given. 8. The simulator modeling is not altered. N/A
/ 9. The scenarios have been validated.
Pursuant to 10 CFR 55.46(d), any open simulator N/A performance deficiencies or deviations from the referenced plant have been evaluated to ensure that functional fidelity is maintained while running the planned scenarios.
- 10. Every operator will be evaluated using at least one new or significantly modified scenario. N/A '?)-.W All other scenarios have been altered in accordance with Section 0.5 of ES-301. 11. All individual operator competencies can be evaluated, as verified using Form ES-301-6 N/A ww (submit the form along with the simulator scenarios).
- 12. Each applicant will be significantly involved in the minimum number of transients and events PfeJ N/A specified on Form ES-301-5 (submit the form with the simulator scefiarios).
- 13. The level of difficulty is appropriate to support licensing decisions for each crew position. N/A Target Quantitative Attributes (Per Scenario; See Section D.5.d) Actual Attributes

Question duplication from the license screening/audit exam was controlled N/A as indicated below (check the item that applies) and appears appropriate:
_the audit exam was systematically and randomly developed; or _the audit exam was completed before the license exam was started; or 1.. the examinations were developed independently; or _the licensee certifies that there is no duplication; or _other (explain)
