1 F 2 B 47Q2 New E S APE008G2.4.34
Modify the first question statement for grammatical correctness. A procedure cannot dispatch an operator, but it can contain guidance, or the requirement, to dispatch an operator to open a breaker.

2 H 2 B 43Q3 New E S EPE009EA1.01
The second part of the question appears to be independent of what EOP Enclosure 5.1 states. Can this part of the question be answered by only knowing systems knowledge?
Incorporated.
Plausibility of B(2) and D(2) may not be acceptable because any time a very specific item is compared to a generally stated item, plausibility can be impacted. The second part of the question would be better stated if it tested the intended contrast between ES Channel 3 being required to be reset or not needing to be reset.
I.E. Prior to stopping 1A LPI pump, ES Channel 3 __(is / is not) required to be reset.

5 F 2 x B 46Q5 New U S APE022AK1.01 C(1) and D(1) do not appear to be plausible. RCP shaft binding does not seem credible. What documentation exists that would indicate that shaft binding is a concern with RCPs? New Q. 6 H 2 B 46Q6 New S APE025AA1.03 No comments.
7 H 2 X M 43Q9 U S APE027AK3.03 Will suction always be from the BWST when entering the SGTR Tab? Could suction still be from the LDST if level has not dropped enough and pressure has not lowered enough? The question stem does not state which steps of the EOP Tab have been completed.
Incorporated.
B(2) and D(2) may not be plausible. Any source of water, whether it be from the LDST or BWST, is cold with respect to the pressurizer. A risk of subcooling the pressurizer due to water being sprayed from one of those two tanks does not seem credible because the potential would always be present when using aux spray. Operators would just control spray flow to control pressure
- maybe spray less?
Incorporated.
8 H 2 X B 2009B Q8 New U S EPE029EK1.01 To add plausibility to PORV being open: suggest changing RCS pressure to 2425 psig-I.E. "RCS pressure rises to 2425 psig."

Dist Partial Job-Link Minutia # / Units Back ward Q - K/A SRO Only C(1) and D(1) do not appear to be plausible. The first part of the question is only asking about the WHEN, not the magnitude. Any time a heat
-up occurs, temperature is going to act first
- even if rods fully insert into the core, even the most infinitesimal temperature increase will cause a corresponding infinitesimal amount of negative reactivity to be inserted. Furthermore, you are apparently relying on manual rod insertion, which takes time for the psycho
-motor skills of the operator to initiate the negative reactivity insertion. Therefore, the only thing this part of the question really tests is whether an ATWS will cause temp to rise and insert negative reactivity.
Modified and used 5 EFPD to enhance plausibility.
9 H 2 X B 45Q10 42Q10 U S EPE038EA2.03 Discuss the idea of changing 1000 gpm in B(2) and D(2) to 440 gpm. Incorporated.
A(1) and B(1) may not be plausible. Why would an applicant choose the SG with the lower level? Help me understand the misconception that would cause an applicant to choose the SG with the lower level? Why would I ever not pick the SG with the higher level?
Modified stem info.
10 H 2 x N U S APE040AA2.03 C(1) and D(1) do not appear to be plausible. At a glance the applicant can see that one SG is above 900 psig and the other is less than 200 psig-..what misconception would lead an applicant to determine that a LOCA was occurring versus a MSLB? Incorporated.

17 H 1 x N U S BWE02G2.1.7 C(1) and D(1) are not plausible due to direct lookup elimination of 0.22x10 6 lbm/hr. The question states that Emergency Feed is being used, not Main Feed. The only place 0.22x10 6 lbm/hr appears is with Main Feed. Providing a reference creates unacceptable plausibility.

21 H 2 x N E S APE028AK3.03 C(1) and D(1) may not be plausible. Containment Temperature rising enough to cause reference leg to flash seems a little extreme. Would it be better to change the first part and test IS / IS NOT due to bubble formation in vessel head? Incorporated.
22 F 2 x N U S APE032G2.4.9 K/A requires testing knowledge in the presence of an accident. This question tests only knowledge of loss of SR NIs while performing a general operating procedure.
KA Changed.
- OK. 23 H 2 x B 2009B Q21 2007 NRC Retest E S APE051AK3.01 Vacuum is not provided in the stem of the question.
The first part of the question is independent of the second part. The first part is a hypothetical, which asks for a condition that could cause TBVs to fail closed. The second part of the question asks only for what the EOP directs the operator to do, which includes using TBVs. Discuss placing the vacuum pressure in the stem as well as the turbine header pressure so that the conditions would clearly apply to both parts of the question. Sat after modification.

Changed format of Q. OK 25 F 2 x N U S APE067AA1.01 To address the plausibility of B(2) and D(2), the distractors would be more plausible if cylinder pressure was lowered to 175 psig at 0830, or raised to 1200 psig at 0830. Otherwise, it is highly likely operators who know nothing about the se t points will still get the question correct.
Incorporated.
26 H 2 x B 45Q26 40Q15 U S BWA07AA1.3 A(1) and B(1) are not plausible because none of the parameters to determine if HPI forced cooling is required are even stated in the stem. Procedures never direct once

-induced LOCA. Consider adding parameters to the stem which must be analyzed for HPI forced cooling.
Added parameters. 27 H 2 x N E S BWE08EK1.3 Discuss deleting the high flow alarm from the stem. This appears to be extra information that is not needed to answer the question. It's deletion would increase the plausibility of the distractors in the first part.

52 F 2 B 41Q50 New S SYS076K2.01 53 F 2 x N U? S SYS078K2.02 Help me understand the plausibility of 3X1 and 3X3. There appears to be better choices for distractors. Discuss changing the distractors to 1XD, 2XF, and 2XP. This will maintain better symmetry by using two choices from two different units and also use some of the other power supplies that power other Worthington backup compressors.

57 - + F 2 x x N E S SYS002A3.01 To ensure one and only one correct answer, would it be safer to move the RBNS level away from the setpoint at 0820? I would suggest raising it to 2 inches so that there is not an argument that it could still be running at 1 inch.
Incorporated.
58 H 2 N E S SYS014A4.02 It appears that extra stuff is presented in the answer choices. Discuss reducing the choices to:
11 A. 1. OFF 2. place Diamond and FDW Loop Masters in MANUAL B. 1. OFF 2. leave ICS in AUTO Etc. Some of original wording remains to ensure one and only one correct answer.
59 H 2 N E S SYS015K5.04 Core Thermal Power Best is defined in the stem as (CTB),
yet in the question statement it is referred to as CTPB? Is an editorial change needed to be consistent?
Incorporated.
Why is the word "ONLY" needed at the end of the first question statement?
Deleted. 60 H 2 N E S SYS041K3.02 When a 50 psig bias is added to the setpoint, does that make the new setpoint just 50 psi higher than the old setpoint, thereby creating a subset issue in that TBVs always open at setpoint unless they are malfunctioning?
To address this, it may be better to be a little more specific on the wording of the answer choices. I.E.: (2) setting as selected on (controller number or name) vs (2) setting as selected on (controller number or name) plus 50 psi.
Modification to wording to address comment.
61 F 2 x M 48Q55 E S SYS029G2.4.46 Can 1RIA-49 receive a HIGH alarm without one of the other alarms that do cause RB Purge to isolate also annunciating?

Yes. 62 + F 2 M 40Q61 S SYS033K4.01 No comments.
63 + F 2 N E S SYS072A1.01 Entry into a Tech Spec occurs if the conditions of applicability are met. Be more precise with the question statement and ask if the conditions of the LCO are met or ask if a REQUIRED ACTION is required or not.

12 64 F 2 x x N U S SYS075A2.03 Is there enough information provided to solicit the correct answer? If the Main Turbine trips at 21.75 inches Hg, what information in the stem is provided that guarantees that to be the case? Conditions modified.
50% Power is a substantially high power level
- it only makes sense that the turbine would trip before the MFW pumps and that the reactor would receive a trip signal from 50%. Discuss. Replaced. 65 F 2 N S SYS079K1.01 No comments.

68 F 2 x x N E S G2.1.6 The distractors for the first half do not appear plausible when you tell them that the BOP is performing the symptoms check while the OATC is doing IMAs. Discuss combining the first two bullets under Current Conditions and making them state: The OATC and BOP are performing IMAs and Symptoms check iaw OMP 18 (or whatever the appropriate document). This will help avoid the cue which impacts the plausibility.

70 F 2 B 2009BQ69 E S G2.2.2 Would operators move rods for "imbalance" control or "balance" control?
When balancing rods, is that balancing within a group? If so, is selecting the group really the only actions needed?
OK as-is.
13 All these actions must be performed iaw a procedure. This procedure reference should be stated in the question statement. This procedure should be supplied as part of the question references, or at a minimum the chief examiner needs to be informed of which procedure is directing these actions. Incorporated.
When asking for the MINIMUM actions, if there is any other action for which the author was not aware, then the question has no correct answer. This is a risky question construction method. Addressed.
71 F 2 B 44Q17 New E S G2.2.3 The statement is made in the Discussion section that EOPs direct to have only 1 RCP running during certain conditions.
Please discuss with the chief examiner which EOPs contain this direction and under what circumstances.

14 76 H 2 x N U S APE008AA2.28 A(2) and C(2) do not appear to be plausible. How can a loss of heat transfer be a reasonable misconception when CETs are lowering? By virtue of temp lowering one knows that heat is leaving the RCS without applying much thought. Potentially could be fixed by changing the question statement to test: LOCA CD (IS / IS NOT) required to be initiated.
Modified. 77 H 2 N E S APE015/017AA2.02 What is the purpose for stating that the bearing temp will rise at a constant rate? Will it actually rise at a constant rate? How could an operator predict that the rate will be constsnt. This aspect of the question appears to lack operational validity. It would make more sense to simply test two temperatures, one of which requires the action (190F), and one which is plausible but wrong (225F). Addressed.
Is it wrong for AP
-029 to be used for the power reduction? They have an option to use AP
-016, but w need to discuss if it is unequivocally wrong to use AP
-029. If an argument can be made that power can be lowered using AP
-029, then some minor modification to the wording might be needed.
Addressed.
78 H 2 x B 41Q78 2009BQ78 U S APE025G2.1.20 Question does not appear to be SRO
-only. The question can be answered by only knowing an action and the reason for that action. I have read the justification for SRO
-only supplied with this question as well as that which was supplied with ILT2009BQ78, but I still do not understand how procedure selection knowledge is required.
Q replaced.
79 H 2 x x N U S APE054G2.4.20 Is the correct answer designated on the exam? The question analysis indicates that "C" is the correct answer, yet the upper right hand corner contains a large bolded "A".
To retain plausibility, if needed ensure levels are such that the SGs are not considered dry.
Corrected.
15 Is the question testing the KA at the SRO level? It appears that the caution statement does not contain knowledge that is related to an SRO topic. It would be logical for an RO to know whether the depressurization needed to occur slowly or quickly. Discuss.
Q modified.

With no intact SGs and no ability to put water in them, how does FCD appear credible? What heat transfer mechanism other than SGs is available to facilitate the FCD within that procedure? Modified. 82 H 2 x x M 46Q9 U S APE001G2.4.41 KA Match: How does the continuous rod withdrawal relate to the answer choices?

16 88 H 2 x N U S SYS061A2.03 KA Match: It appears that the second part of the question is testing SRO procedure selection knowledge, but to answer this part of the question no knowledge of loss of DC is required. Discuss.
Q modified.
89 + F 2 N E S SYS062A2.06 Modify the second part of the question. Entry into an LCO is not correct terminology. If the Applicability conditions are met, you are in the LCO. You may meet the conditions of the LCO and no action statements may be required, but you are in the LCO. Therefore, the wording needs to test whether the Conditions of the LCO are met
-OR- if any actions of the LCO are required to be perfo rmed. Q modified.
90 H 2 x N U S SYS063G2.4.2 Q does not appear to be SRO

96 + F 2 B 16-1 Q95 E S G2.2.11 The question statement in the first part needs to reflect the actual wording of the procedure. The procedure only states that the removal of the change "SHOULD" be within one year.
