PRD are required to be tested how often?

• A. Weekly
• B. Monthly
• C. As directed by policy, coordinating with LSS/TC through NLECC
• D. Annually

Answer: (C)

PRD testing frequency is determined by policy and coordinated with the appropriate offices through NLECC. This means there isn’t a universal weekly, monthly, or annual schedule for everyone. The tests are scheduled to align with current directives, updates to procedures, and any instructions from leadership. Coordinating with LSS/TC through NLECC ensures the tests reflect the latest standards, receive proper oversight, and are properly documented. When policy changes or new guidance is issued, the testing cadence can be adjusted accordingly, making the policy-directed, coordinated approach the correct practice. Fixed intervals don’t guarantee alignment with evolving requirements, which is why the policy-driven route is preferred.
