-4.DOC Tier 2, Group 1 215005 / A2.10 Replaced with 215005 / A2.08 Question 86, 215005, A2.10

- Ability to (a) predict the impacts of the following on the AVERAGE POWER RANGE MONITOR/LOCAL POWER RANGE MONITOR SYSTEM; and (b) based on those predictions, use procedures to correct, control, or mitigate the consequences of those abnormal conditions Changes in void concentration Could not develop an operationally valid SRO question for this K/A. The only operationally valid question associated with changes in void concentration that affect the APRMs and also require a procedure response would be based on a thermal hydraulic instability event.

The response to such an event is RO level knowledge in that the response is an immediate action of the DAEC abnormal procedures. Randomly selected K/A 215005, A2.08, Ability to (a) predict the impacts of the following on the AVERAGE POWER RANGE MONITOR/LOCAL POWER RANGE MONITOR SYSTEM; and (b) based on those predictions, use procedures to correct, control, or mitigate the consequences of those abnormal conditions
