5. Other 6. 7. Q= SRO UIWS Explanation WA Only S New. E Modified.

1) Re-word the first sentence in the question stem to state: Thc reactor was shutdown and "A" loop of RHR was placed in Shutdown Cooling (SDC). 2) In distractors B. C, and D, add the word RPV water level. 3) In distractor B, fully capitalize the word "Only" for emphasis and delete the second part of the distractor that states "and can be re-opened after the group 2 isolation is reset." RESOLUTION: Comments incorporated.

A "+" in the "Q#" column indicates that question was reviewed as part of the representative sample of 30 questions.

The stem lacks sufficient focus to elicit the correct answer (e.g., unclear intent, more information is needed, or too much needless information).

The answer choices are a collection of unrelated truelfalse statements. The distractors are not credible; single implausible distractors should be repaired, more than one is unacceptable. . . The stem or distractors contain cues (i.e., clues, specific determiners, phrasing, length, etc). One or more distractors is (are) partially correct (e.g., if the applicant can make unstated assumptions that are not contradicted by stem). 1. Check the appropriate box if a job content error is identified: . . . The question is not linked to the job requirements (i.e., the question has a valid WA but, as written, is not operational in content). The question requires the recall of knowledge that is too specific for the closed reference test mode (Le., it is not required to be known from memory). The question contains data with an unrealistic level of accuracy or inconsistent units (e.g., panel meter in percent with question in gallons).

The question requires reverse logic or application compared to the job requirements.

Check questions that are sampled for conformance with the approved WA and those that are designated SRO-only (WA and license level mismatches are unacceptable). Based on the reviewer's judgment, is the question as written (U)nsatisfactory (requiring repair or replacement), in need of (E)ditorial enhancement, or (S)atisfactory?

I. 3.

ES-401 2 Form ES-401-9 zi SRO U/E/S 7. Explanation New. 1) Fully capitalize the word "Only" in distractors A and B for emphasis.

2) In distractor D, change the word "AND" to a lower case word, since othewise it is ambiguous as to which part of the "OR" expression the "AND applies. RESOLUTION:

1) Comment incorporated.

2) Inserted a comma after the word "normal" to clarify the logical break in the conjunction.

New. 1) In the question stem, add the word "each after "3000 gpm" 2) In distractor D, add the word "Repeated" at the beginning of the distractor.

RESOLUTION: Comments incorporated.

New. 1) Change distractor B to state that the

"... area temperature in not within 5°F ..." (Le., add the word "not"). 2) In the question stem, adc "SBLC" before the words "boron concentration." - NOTE: Question requires a reference.

There appears to be no correct answer. 2) The "or" statements in distractors C and D are ambiguous, in that it is not clear that the intent is that if the first part of the distractor is not met, then the

'or" statement applies.

NOTE: Question requires a reference.

RESOLUTION:

1) and 2) Question was replaced with a New question at the Higher Cognitive Level. New. Re-word distractor A in the following way to make the wording similar to distractor C: One Core Spray pump with its associated 4160 KV power supply breaker closed will satisfy the ADS logic blowdown permissive.

RESOLUTION: Comment incorporated.

Bank. S S E - - 16+ 3 3 - - 3 New. New. Question

WA, since the question is not associated with the RPL water level control system design features and/or interlocks for 3-element control. The question is associated with when 3-element control is placed in service (an operational question as opposed to a design question).

RESOLUTION:

Question was determined to meet WA, since it requires knowledge of system design and limitations to correctly determine when FW is placed in 3-element control.

However, made the following changes: 1) Clarified question stem to mention design limitations, and 2) Changed distractor D to increase the plausibility of the distractor..

This question is at the SRO level, since it is associated with 10CFR55.43(b)(2) (Tech Spec Bases), unless there is a Learning Objective for the RO that states that the RO is required to know the basis for the Main Turbine Trip function. RESOLUTION: Ops Man 8.05.06-01, RPS Equipment Description, provides a basis for the Main Turbine Trip that includes providing additional margin for core safety limits. Lesson Plan M-8170L-072 for the Reactor Protection System, Learning Objective 6.1, requires knowin RPS operations and scram logic. Question is thus satisfactory for the RO exam. New. 1) Would the reactor period meter in the Control Room indicate with the 11 IRM on Range 3? 2) Change distractor A from an odd number of 37 seconds to a more rounded off number (e.g., 35 seconds) similar to the other distractors.

ONLY the immediate Operator Actions of C.4-B.02.05A have been comdeted?" Otherwise, one could argue thai in 2 minutes one could have performed some subsequent actions of the procedure and re-opened the RBCCW drywell isolation valves, and there is no correct answer. RESOLUTION: Comment incorporated.

New. E E S S S S E New. In distractor D, delete the words "with the recirc pump suction and discharge valves open," since these valves would be open for an operating recirc loop. RESOLUTION: Comment incorporated.

Bank. 1) This question is at the SRO level, since it is associated with lOCFR55.43(b)(7) (Fuel Handling procedures), unless there is a Learning Objective for the RO that states that the RO is required to knov the subject from memory.

2) Distractor D discusses directing the Refueling SRO ..., which an RO would not be expected to do. RESOLUTION:

1) No change required, since there is a Learning Objective for the RO. 2) Deleted the phrase "Direct the Refueling SRO to". New. New. NOTE: Question requires a reference.

New. New. New. Typo:

In distractor A, change "wip" to "whip." RESOLUTION: Comment incorporated.

New. 1) One could interpret the data given in the question stem and state that there is no correct answer.

The correct answer is obtained b) assuming that condenser pressure remains below 7.5" Hg Abs. After the time 0710 hours0.00822 days 0.197 hours 0.00117 weeks 2.70155e-4 months . However, one could also reasonably assume tha condenser pressure is continuing to decrease (after 0710) at the same rate as that observed between 0708 and 0710 hours0.00822 days 0.197 hours 0.00117 weeks 2.70155e-4 months .

If one makes this assumption, then a reactor scram at 7.5" Hg Abs. would be required at 071 1 hours1.157407e-5 days 2.777778e-4 hours 1.653439e-6 weeks 3.805e-7 months based on a rate of decrease in condenser vacuum of 0.45" Hg per minute. 2) In the question stem, fully capitalize the word EARLIEST to provide emphasis.

NOTE: Question requires a reference.

RESOLUTION:

1) Changed the fifth bullet in the question stem by adding the words "and remains stable" at the end of the item.

2) Comment incorporated.

New. This question appears to be at the Fundamental level instead of i the Higher Cognitive level, since only a flow value and a reason are required to answer the question. RESOLUTION: Comment incorporated.
