- 3. WRITERS GUIDE POR EOPs I
3~ I GENERAL A writers guide for EOPs is a plant-specific document that provides instructions on writing EOPs, using good writing priaciples. Tn addition to establishing sound writing principles, the guide helps to promote consistency among all EOPs and their revisions, independent of the number of EOP writers.
The writers guide will be revised, as necessary, based. on feedback from operator trainingp experience, and validatioa.
t
- 3. 2 DOCUMENT DESCRIPTION Information on the following ma)or items is included in the plantmpecific writers guide for EOPs:
o EOP format o EOP organization o EOP level of detail o role of the EOP within the procedure system aad network o EOP conteat o mechanics of style The St. Lucie Plant Writers Guide for Emergency Operating Procedures, Revision 0 is based on the iadustry document Emer ency eritin Procedures Vritin daliue (INPO 82-017), developed by the Emergency Operating Procedures Iupletmntation Assistance (EOPIK) Eevieu Group aad published by.INPO. The gt.'.
Lucie Plant guide is provided as Attachmeat, I.
PAGE 4e EOP VERIPICATION PROGRAM 4e 1 GENERAL EOP verif1cation is the evaluation performed to confirm the written correctness of the procedure and to ensure that applicable generic and plantmpecific technical information has been incorporated properly. This evaluation also checks that the human factors aspects presented 1n the writers guide for EOPs have been applied 4.2 PROGRAM DESCRIPTION When developing this EOP verification program, the following ma)or items were considered:
o how EOP verification vill be performed o how completion of the EOP verification process wi.Q. be documented o what process will be used in resolving discrepancies The verification program is based on the industry document Emer ency Operatin Procedures Verification Guideline (INPO 83>>004), developed by the EOPIA Review Group and published by INPO The.St. Lucie Plant ver1fication procedure for emergency operating procedures should address the following obgectives:
o EOPs are technically correct, i.e., they accurately reflect the technical gu1delines and other EOP source documents.
o EOPs are written correctly, 1 e., they'ccurately reflect the plant-specific writers guide.
o A correspondence exists between the procedures and the control room/plant hardware o The language and level of information presented in the EOPs are compatible with the qualifications, training, end experience of the operating staff.
PAGE
- 5. EOP VALIDATION PROCRAH 5, 1 GENERAL EOP validation is the evaluation performed to determine that the actions specified in the procedure can be performed by the operator to manage the eaargency conditions effectively. The methodology for EOP validation utiU.zes present, available methods at the St. Lucie Plant while recognizing and allowing for future= improvements. The EOP validation will evaluate the opexators'bility to manage, emergency conditions using the EOPs. It will validate that part of the EOP not covered by any technical validation of generic technical guidelines.
5o2 PROGRAN DESCRIPTION When developing this EOP validation program, the following major items were considered:
o how EOP validation will be performed o how to'ppropriately use simulators, walk-throughs, or table-top methods of validation o how operating and training experience will be integrated into the program evaluation o the evaluation criteria to be applied and the methods to be followed in resolving discrepancies o how completion of the EOP validation process will be documented The px'ogram is based on the industry document Emex'ncy Operatin Procedures Validation Guideline (INPO 83-006); developed by the EOPIA Review Group and published by INPO. The St. Lucie Plant validation procedure for emergency operating procedures should address the following objectives:
o EOPs are usable, i.e., they can be understood and followed without confusion, delays, and errors.
o A correspondence eMsts between the procedures and the contxol room/plant har dware.
The instructions presented in the EOPs are compatible with the shift manpower, qualifications, training, and exper5.ence of the operating staff.
o A high level of assurance exists that the procedures will work, i.e., the procedures guide the operator in mitigating transients and accidents.
PAGE 6~ EMERGENCY OPERATING PROCEDURES TRAINING PROGRAM (EOPT) 6.1 GOALS The EOPT will have as its basis the following goals:
o To enable the operators to understand the structure of the EOPs.
o To enable the operators to understand the technical basis of the EOPs.
o To enable the operators to have a working knowledge of the technical content of the EOPs.
o To enable the operator to be able to use the EOPs under operational conditions.
Lesrning objectives will be developed to support each of these goals 6 2 TRAINING METHODS The EOPT wiLL utilize various combinations of classroom instruction, practice walk throughs, and simulator exercises as appropriate for the learning ob)ectives.
6 2.1 Classroom Instruct1on Classroom instruction session will include information on the following:
o Technical bases of the EOPs o Technical content of the EOPs o Structure of the EOPs 6.2.2 Procedure Walk Throughs Familiarity with procedural content, structure, and implementation will be gained by perforadng practice walk throughs in the control room.
6.2.3 Simulator Exercises Simulator practice on performing EOPs will occur as a part of regularly scheduled simulator requalification or hot license training. Scenarios wiLl be developed to be as specifically appl1cable as possible to the generic simulator now being used. Procedural practice wilL be structured such that operators are performing their normal control room functions. Unt11 a plant specific simulator is available, complicated scenarios will be discussed during classroom instruction or control room walk throughs.
PAGE I
6~3 REFRESHER TRAINING All licensed operators will conduct procedural walk throughs for refresher training. The walk throughs may be conducted either in the plant control room or the simulator. Simulator scenarios will be as described"in 6-2.3 above.
Simulator exercises will be evaluated by the Training staff or operations supervision. Evaluation results will be critiqued for feedback to the operators and to determine additional training needs.
6~4 TRAINING ON REVISIONS TO EOPs Training on revisions to EOPs will be accomplished through a program of required readings (self taught), preshift briefings, or lectures in the requalification program. Determination of appropriate methods will be made by'he training staff.
6 ' INPUTS INTO TRAINING PROGRAM CHANGES 6.5.1 Supporting Training Material Changes Changes to supporting training material will be factored into updated lesson plane and operator memos.
6.5.2 Operator Peedback Operator feedback resulting from EOP verification, EOP validation, and training critique forms will be used to keep the training program and EOPs current and relevant.
6 ' EVALUATION An evaluation will be used to ensure that the training program goals have been accomplished.

- 4. 1. 1, Instruction Column The left-hand column of the dual-column format shall contain the operator e
instructional steps. The following guides are established for this column, in addition to the general guides above.
t o Expected indications should be presented in this column.
l 4.1.2 Contingency Actions Column Contingency actions shall be presented in the right-hand column of the dual-column format. Contingency actions are operator actions that should be taken in the event a stated condition, event, or task does not represent or achieve the expected result. The need for contingency action occurs in con)unction with tasks involving verification, observation, confirmation, and monitoring.
Contingencies should be written so that the conditional statement precedes the action statement. "If......Then......."
Contingency actions should be specified for each circumstance in which the expected results or actions might not be achieved. The contingency actions should identify, as appropriate, directions to override automatic controls and to initiate manually what is normally automatically initiated.
4 ' USE OP LOGIC TERMS The logic terms ENO, OR, NOT, TP, TP NOT, WHEN, and THEN are often necessary to describe precisely a set of conditions or sequence of actions. When logic statements are used, logic terms will be highlighted so that all the conditions are clear to the'. operator. Emphasis will be achieved by using capitalization and underlining. All letters of the logic terms shall be capitalized and the words will be underlined.
The use of AND and OR within the same action shall be avoided. When AND and OR are used together, the logic can be very ambiguous.
QI 5-PR PSL-2 Writers Guide Rev ~ 0 Page 14 of 32 The dualmolumn format used equates to the logic; ZF NOT the action in the left-hand column, THEN folios the action specified in the right hand column.
I Use other logic terms as follows:
I o When attention should be called to combinations of conditions, the word I AND shall be placed between the description of each condition. The word I AND shall not be used to goin more than three conditions. If four or more I conditions need to be )oined, a list format shall be used.
~
I o The word OR shall be used when calling attention to alternative I combinations of conditions. The use of the word OR shall always be in the I inclusive sense. To specify the exclusive "OR," the following may be I used: "either A OR B but not both."
I o When action steps are contingent upon certain conditions or combinations I of conditions, the step shall begin with the words IP or WHEN followed by I a description of the condition or conditions, a comma, the word THEN, I followed by the action to be taken. WHEN is'sed for an expected I condition. IP is used for an unexpected but possible condition.
I o Use of,IP NOT should be limited to those cases in whi'ch the operator must I respond to the second of two possible conditions. IP should be used to I specify the first condition.
I v
o THEN shall not be used at the end of an action step to instruct the I operator to perform the next step because it runs actions together.

Those that apply to the entire procedure are
)* called "PRECAUTIONS" and are covered in operator training. Those that apply
} to a portion of a procedure are called "CAUTIONS" and are placed immediately before the action statements to which they apply.
l Cautions shall extend across the entire page and shall be highlighted as shown in the Example CAUTION. This placement of cautions helps ensure that the procedure user observes the caution before performing the step. A caution cannot be used instead of an action statement. It should be used to denote a potential hazard to equipment or personnel associated with or consequent to the subsequent action statement I
I Cautions should be used to alert personnel to displays based on secondary I sensing modes. For example, when a light indicates a circuit is energized I and not the position of a valve.
I I If additional information other than cautions is necessary to support an action statement, a NOTE should be used. A NOTE should present information I only, not instructions, and should be located in the right-hand column as I as close to the applicable action statement as possible.
l l o The following examples illustrate these instructions.
I a. Example NOTE:

t, I 4 ' CALCULATIONS I
( Mathematical calculations should be avoided in EOPs. If a value has to be I determined in order to perform a procedural step, a chart or graph should be I used whenever possible. I I
1 4.5 USE OF UNDERLINING I I Underlining should be used for certain headings, emphasis of logic terms and l l CAUTION. I I I I 4' REFERENCING AND BRANCHING TO OTHER PROCEDURES OR STEPS I I Referencing implies that an additional procedure or additional steps will be I used as a" supplement to the procedure presently being used. 'Referencing l other steps within the procedure being used, either future steps or completed I steps, should be minimized. When only a few steps are involved in the I referencing, the steps should be restated in the procedure wherever they are J
needed.
j t To minimize potential operator confusion, branching should be used when the I operator is to leave one procedure or step and use another procedure or step.
l Use the key words "go to " This will alert the operator to leave the I present, step and not return until directed.
. 1 Use quotation marks to emphasize the title of the referenced or branched procedure; examples: Go to E-l, "Loss of Reactor Coolant", Step 5.2.
gl 5-PR PSL-2 Writers Guide Rev ~ 0 Page 17 of 32
- 4. 7 COMPONENT IDENTIFICATION With respect to identification of components, the following rules are to be followed:
Equipment, controls, and displays will be identified in operator language (common usage). This language may not always match engraved names on panels but will be recognizable.
o When the engraved names and numbers on panel placards and alarm windows are specifically the item of concern in the procedure, the engraving should be quoted verbatim and emphasized by using all capitals.
o The names of plant system titles are emphasized by initial capitalization.
t When the word "system" is deleted from the title because of brevity and is I understood because of the context, the title is still emphasized by 1
initial capitalization.
I o If the component is seldom used or it is felt that the component would be l difficult to find, location information should be given in parentheses I following the identification.
I LEVEL OP DETAIL Too much detail in EOPs should be avoided in the interest of 'being able to effectively execute the instructions in a timely manner. The level of detail required is the detail that a newly trained and licensed operator would desire during an emergency condition.
To assist in determining the level of EOP detail, the following general .rules apply ~
QI 5-PR PSL-2 Writers Guide Rev. 0 Page 18 of 32 Por control circuitry that executes an entire function upon actuation of the control switch, the action verb appropriate to the component suffices I without further amplification of how to manipulate the control device; for I example, "Close PCV-07-1A, PCV-07-1B." Recommended action verbs are as I follows: I I
- a. Por power-driven rotating equipment, use Start, Stop. I I
- b. Por valves, use Open, Close, Throttle Open, Throttle Close, Throttle. [
I
- c. Por power distribution breakers, use Synchronize and Close, Open.
l For control switches with a positional placement that establishes a I standby readiness condition, the verb "Set" should be used, along with the engraved name of the desired position. Positional placements are l typically associated with establishing readiness of automatic functions I and are typically named AUTO or NORMAL; for example, "Set the GLAND STEAM I EXHAUSTER Control Switch in AUTO." I o For multiposition control switches that have more than one position for a similar function, placement to the 'desired position should be specified; for example, "Place PIRE pump SELECTOR Switch to TEST NO. 2."
I Standard practices for observing for abnormal results need not be I prescribed within procedural steps. For example, observation of noise, I vibration, erratic flow, or discharge pressure need not be specified by I steps that start pumps. I I
o Alignment instructions should contain all the following: I I
- a. Each item requiring alignment is individually specified. (Do not I refer personnel to previous steps I I
- b. Each item is identified with a unique number or name. I I
QI 5-PR PSL-2 Writers Guide Rev. 0 Page 19 of 32'.
The position in which the item is to be placed is specified.
- d. The position in which the item is placed is verified.
4.9 PRINTED OPERATOR AIDS l When information is presented using graphs, charts, data sheets, tables, and j figures, these aids must be self~xplanatory, legible,,and readable under the expected conditions of use and within the reading precision of the operator.
I Data sheets should designate the frequency of use. If the action step must l be repeated every 15 minutes, the data sheet should contain enough spaces to I comply with the action.
l 4~9 1 Units of Measure I Units of measure on figures, tables, and attachments should be given for l numerical values that represent observed, measurement data, or calculated I results. A slant line should be used instead of "per"; examples: ft/sec, lbs/hr.
4.9.2 Titles and Headings Capitalization should be used for references to-tables and figures, titles of tables and figures within test material, and column headings within a table.
Examples: Refer to Pigure 201 for ~
. as shown in Table 201, Equipment Power Supplies the ~ ~ ~ ~
4.9.3 Pigure, Table, and Attachment Numbering Sequential arabic numbers should be assigned to figures, tables, and attachments in separate series. The sequence should correspond with the order of their reference in the text. The symbol "0" and abbreviation "No." are unnecessary and should not be used. The number alone suffices.
Examples: Pigure 1, Figure 2, etc.
Table 1, Table 2, etc.
Attachment 1, Attachment 2, etc.
Ql 5-PR PSL-2 Writers Guide Rev. 0.
Page 20 of 32 Page identification for attachments should consist of a block of information that identifies (I) procedure number, (2) abbreviated title, (3) attachment number, (4) page number, and (5) revision number. Page numbering of attachments should meet the requirements of Subsection 2.5.
Section numbering for attachments should be in accordance with Subsection 3.3.
- 5. MECHANICS OP STYLE 5.1 SPELLING Spelling should be consistent with modern usage. When a choice of spelling is offered by a dictionary, the fir'st spelling should be used.
I 5.2 HYPHENATION Hyphens are used between elements of a compound word when usage calls for it.
The following rules should be followed for hyphenation.
V When doubt exists, the compound aord should be restructured to avoid hyphenation.
o Hyphens should be used in the following circumstances:
- a. in compound numerals from twenty-one to ninety-nine; example: one hundred thirty-four
- b. in fractions; examples: one-half, two-thirds "Co in compounds with "self"; examples: self-contained, self-lubricated
- d. when the last letter of the first~ word is the same vowel as the first letter of the second word .as an alternative, two words may be used; example: firemscape or fire escape I
QI -PR PSL-Writers Guide Rev. 0 Page 21 of 32
- e. when misleading or awkward consonants would result by Joining the wor ds; example: bell-like l* to avoid confusion with another word; examples: remover to prevent I confusion with recover, pre~osition to avoid confusion with preposition
- g. when a letter is linked with a noun; examples: X-ray, O-ring, U-bolt, I-beam
- h. to separate chemical elements and their atomic weight; examples:
Uranium-235, U-235 5~3 PUNCTUATION Punctuation should be used only as necessary to aid reading and prevent misunderstanding. Word order should be selected to require a minimum of punctuation. When extensive punctuation is necessary for clarity, the sentence should be rewritten and possibly made into several sentences.
Punctuation should be in accordance with the following rules.
I 5.3.1 Brackets I Do not use brackets.
I 5 '.2 Colon t Use a colon to indicate that a list of items is to follow. For example, l Restore cooling flow as follows:
I l 5.3. 3 Comma
. t Use of many commas is a sign the instruction is too complex and needs to be I rewritten. Therefore, evaluate the number of commas to ensure the instruction I is not too complex.
I Use a comma after conditional phrases for clarity and ease of reading.
Example: WHEN level decreases to 60 inches, THEN start pump .

I o Arabic numerals should be used.
) o For numbers less than unity, the decimal point should be preceded by a l zero; for example: 0.1.
I o The number of significant digits should be equal to the number of l significant digits available from the display and the reading precision l of the operator.
I o Acceptance values should be specified in such a way that addition and I subtraction by the user is avoided if .possible. This can generally be l done by stating acceptance values as limits. Examples: 510 F maximum; l 300 psig minimum; 580 to 600 F. For calibration points, statement of l the midpoint and its lower and upper limits for each data cell would accomplish the same purpose; for example, 10 milliamperes (9.5 to 10.5).
I Avoid using +.
j I o Engineering units should always*be specified for numerical values of variables. They should be the same as those used on the control 'rocess room displays, for example: psig instead of psi.
I I 5.6 ABBREVIATIONS, LETTER SYMBOLS, AND ACRONYMS l The use of abbreviations should be minimized because they may be confusing to I those who are not thoroughly familiar with them. Abbreviations may be used where necessary to save time and space, and when their meaning is
, I unquestionably clear to the intended reader. The full meaning of the I abbreviation, other than the abbreviations listed in AP0010137, should be J fully written before the first use of the abbreviation and whenever in doubt.
