INTRODUCTION 1.1 PURPOSE The purpose of this Procedures Generation Package (PGP) is to describe the emergency operating procedures (EOPs) upgrade project at the Palisades Nuclear Plant.

1.2 SCOPE This document was developed in response to Supplement 1 to NUREG-0737, Item 7.2b, page 15.

1.3 ORGANIZATION This document consists of the following five major parts:

0 Plant-Specific Technical Guidelines 0

Writers Guide for EOPs 0

EOP Verification Program 0

EOP Validation Program 0

EOP Training Program Each pa~t describes the approach taken as part of the overall EOP Development and Implementation Plan for the Palisades Nuclear Plant.

1.4

SUMMARY

DESCRIPTION OF PROGRAM

a.

Project Team The new EOP's will be developed and implemented by a project team designated by the Palisades Plant Operations Superintendent.

The project team will consist primarily of Shift Engineers who are SRO qualified with additional support from other individuals in the Operations Department.

b.

Interfacing Procedures EOP's are only one of the many types of instructions within the plant's procedure system.

Their relationship to each other and other plant procedures will be considered during EOP upgrade to ensure continuity of the EOP's with the supporting plant and system procedures.

Where necessary, changes to existing procedures will be recommended an~ processed as part of this program.

MI0684-0016-NL02

Page 2 of 9 For ~urposes of EOP's, an emergency event is distinguished from other plant operations by virtue of its severity in that it is sufficiently severe that a reactor trip is either activated or required immediately to properly mitigate the event.

Other less severe events for which a reactor trip is not required, but if left unattended could eventually challenge $afety functions will be addressed as offnormal procedures.

2. PLANT SPECIFIC TECHNICAL GUIDELINES 2.1 GENERAL Because of the similarity between Palisades and the generic plant used in the Combustion Engineering Owner's Group (GEOG) generic Emergency Procedure guidelines (EPG's), Palisades will use the CEOG EPG's (CEN-152, Revision 2, Dated 05/15/84) to upgrade existing plant emergency procedures.

This section describes the process that will be used.

The CEOG EPGs and the other source documents indicated below constitute the plant specific technical guidelines required by Reference 7.1.

Future approved revisions to the CEN-152 will be incorporated using the established revision, review; and approval process.

2.2 PROGRAM DESCRIPTION

a.

Source Documents EOP writers will use the.following source documents to prepare upgraded EOPs.

0 EOP Writers Guide 0

GEOG Emergency Procedure Guidelines 0

Plant Specific Technical Guidelines (See Enclosure 2) 0 Technical Specifications 0

Existing Emergency Procedures 0

FSAR 0

Licensing Commitment Letters Related to EOPs 0

Administrative Procedures 0

Page 3 of 9

b.

EOP Development The EOP writer will review the source documents and then develop the EOP using the following additional guidance.

0 0

0 0

0 0

0 If it is,determined that a generic step is compatible with Palisades, then the step will be incorporated into the EOPs using the appropriate format instruction.

When a generic step requires a plant specific value, it will be determined and put into the EOP.

When a generic step indicates the need for plant-specific details, then the information will be added to the EOP's.

When the generic guidelines fail to address systems or actions that are unique to Palisades, then step~ will be included to encompass the necessary actions.

If a generic step specifies an action that cannot be performed at Palisades, then the step will be deleted or modified.

Generic steps will be reworded to conform to Palisades standard terminology.

Generic steps may be rearranged to streamline the procedure provided the technical intent remains unchanged.

NOTE:

Most of the above concerns should be resolved by the Fuction and Task Analysis (See Enclosure 2)

c.

EOP Basis Document Each EOP writer will prepare a basic document which will provide specific reference and/or additional technical justification for each step contained in the EOP.

This basis document will be technically reviewed and approved as part of the EOP implementation process.

Specific Deviations from the CEOG EPG's will also be addressed and justified.

3. WRITERS GUIDE FOR EOP's 3.1 GENERAL A plant specific writers guide for EOP's has been prepared to provide instructions on writing EOPs, using good writing principals.

In addition, the guide helps to promote consistency among all EOP's and subsequent revisions, independent of the number of EOP writers.

The writers guide will be revised as necessary, based on feedba~k from operator training, experience and validation.

MI0684-0016-NL02

e Page 4 of 9 3.2 DOCUMENT DESCRIPTION Information on the following major items is included in the plant specific writers guide for EOP's:

0 Introduction 0

Numbering, Headings, Format 0

Writing Instructional Steps 0

Mechanics of Style 0

General Appearance The Palisades Plant Writers Guide for Emergency Operating Procedure is based primarily on the industry document Emergency Operating Procedures Writing Guideline (INPO 82-017), developed by the Emergency Operating Procedures Implementation Assistance (EOPIA) Review Group and published by INPO.

The Palisades Guide is provided as Enclosure 1.

3.3 DOCUMENT REVIEWS The writers guide has been reviewed by the Plant Operations Department, Plant Manager, Quality Assurance Department and Reactor Engineering Department and will be incorporated into the Plant Administrative Procedures.

4 EOP VERIFICATION PROGRAM 4.1 GENERAL EOP verification is the evaluation performed to confirm the written correctness of the procedure and to ensure that applicable generic and plant-specific technical information has been incorporated properly.

This evaluation also checks that the human factors aspects presented in the writers guide for EOP's have been applied.

4.2 PROGRAM DESCRiPTION When developing this EOP verification program, the following major items were considered:

0 How EOP verification will be performed 0

How completion of the EOP verification process will be documented 0

What process will be*used in resolving discrepancies MI0684-0016-NL02

e Page 5 of 9 The verification program is based on the industry document Emergency Operating Procedures Verification Guideline (INPO 83-004), developed by the EOPIA Review Group and published by INPO.

The Palisades Plant Administrative Procedure for Emergency Operating Procedure Development and Implementation will include a verification section that addresses the following objectives:

0 0

0 0

EOP's are technically correct, i.e., they accurately reflect the technical guidelines and other EOP source documents.

EOP's are written correctly, i.e., they accurately reflect the plant-specific writers guide.

A correspondence exists between the procedures and the control room/plant hardware.

The language and level of information presented in the EOPs are compatible with the qualifications, training, and experience of the operating staff.

EOP verification will be accomplished by completing all the elements described below.

a.

Operations Review The EOP's will be made available to each operations shift for review.

A review/comment sheet will be provided to collect and respond* to comments.

b.

EOP Verification Checklist An EOP verification checklist will be used to ensure that the EOP's conform to certain human factors principles and represent a degree of consistency in presentation of the written material.

c *. Table Top Review Each EOP will be discussed by a group of operators, engineers, and trainers.

d.

Control Room Walkthrough Each EOP will be walked through the control room to ensure compatibility with existing control room indications.

EOP VALIDATION PROGRAM 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 emergency conditions effectively.

The methodology for EOP validation will consist of performing selected scenarios at the-Palisades Plant specific simulator for each EOP.

5.2 PROGRAM DESCRIPTION When developing this EOP validation program, the following major items were considered:

0 0

0 0

How EOP validation will be performed How to appropriately use the simulator as a method of validation The evaluation criteria to be applied and the methods to be followed in resolving discrepancies How completion of the EOP validation process will be documented-The program is based on the industry document Emergency Operating Procedures Validation Guideline (INPO 83-006), developed by the EOPIA Review Group and published by INPO.

The Palisades Plant Administrative Procedure for Emergency Operating Procedures Development and Implementation will include a validation section that addresses the following objectives:

0 0

0 0

EOPs are usable, i.e., they can be understood and followed without confusion, delays, and errors.

A correspondence exists between the procedures and the control room/plant hardware.

The instructions presented in the EOP's are compatible with the shift manpower, qualifications, training, and experience of the operating staff.

A high level of assurance exists that the procedure will work, i.e.,

the procedures guide the operator in mitigating transients and accidents.

MI0684-0016-NL02 j

e Page 7 of 9 The Validation Program will basically consist of the following activities:

a.

Designate Observer/Review Team and Operator Personnel The Operations Superintendent will designate personnel to participate in EOP validation. It is planned that the EOP's will be validated by an operations crew familiarized with the EOP's and observed by members of the EOP Project Team.

b.

Select Scenario~

The EOP Team with assistance from Simulator Training.Staff, will select appropriate scenarios for EOP validation.

c.

Conduct Simulator Validation Runs Selected scenarios will be run on each EOP to determine if the actions specified in the EOP can be performed by the operator to manage the emergency condition effectively.

d.

Debrief and Resolution of Discrepancies Personnel involved in the validation run will be debriefed.

Data assessment and debrief comments will be reviewed and revision requests generated as necessary.

Revalidation will be performed for significant revisions.

6 EOP TRAINING PROGRAM 6.1 GENERAL The EOP's format requires that the operator have a significant knowledge level based on experience and specific training on the use of the EOP's.

As part of the EOP Upgrade Project, a basis document will be developed for each EOP which includes specific justification for each step of the EOP.

The basis will be the primary reference for development of training materials.

Training will be conducted prior to initial implementation of the new EOP's.

0 0

To enable the operator to understand the structure and format of EOP's.

To enable the operator to understand the technical basis of the EOP's.

To enable the operator to have a working knowledge of the technical content of the EOP's.

To give the operator experience in using the EOP under simulated control room conditions.

The Training Process can be divided into these areas:

a.

Awareness and Involvement in the Upgrade Process" During operator requalification training in 1984/1985 the EOP upgrade program progress will be discussed and draft procedures will be reviewed and critiqued as time permits.

b.

Classroom Presentation and Discussion Instruction will be given on:

a.

Use of the new format

b.

Standard post trip actions

c.

Each event specific EOP

d.

When and how to use the functional recovery EOP

c.

Simulator Instruction Use of the Palisades Plant specific simulator will provide each operator the "hands on" experience of using the EOP under control room operating conditions.

This allows the operator to observe the effects, of various actions and non-actions.

d.

Examination Test will be administered to check that the necessary information has been learned.

This will include:

i. Written examination at the conclusion of classroom presentation.

MI0684-0016-NL02

e Page 9 of 9 ii. Operating evaluation at the conclusion of the simulator instruction.

6.3 TRAINING ON REVISIONS (AFTER INITIAL IMPLEMENTATION)

Training on minor procedure revisions will be conducted through a program of required readings (self-taught), preshift briefings, or lectures in the requalification program and will occur coincidental with implementation.

Training on major revisions will be conducted by the use of classroom instruction and walk-throughs in the control room or on the Palisades plant-specific simulator.

If operational considerations do not allow control room walk-throughs, and the plant-specific simulator is not available, training on major revisions will be conducted during classroom instruction.

In any event, training on major revisions will be completed prior to implementation.

1.0 INTRODUCTION

1.1 PURPOSE The purpose of this document is to provide administrative guidance on the preparation of Emergency Operating Procedures (EOPs).

1. 2 SCOPE This writers' guide applies to the development and revision of all EOPs.

1.3 DEFINITION 2.0

. 2.1 EOPs are procedures that direct operator actions necessary to mitigate consequences of transients and accidents which cause plant parameters to exceed reactor protection setpoints, engineered safety feature setpoints, or other appropriate technical limits.

. NUMBERING, HEADINGS AND FORMAT TITLE BLOCK INFORMATION Title block information shall be in accordance with Administrative

  • procedure 10.41.

2.2 NUMBERING Alpha-Numeric designation shall be in accordance with Administrative Procedures 10.41 and 10.42.

2.3 SECTION AND SUBSECTION HEADINGS Headings shall be in accordance with Administrative Procedure 10.41.

2.4.

FORMAT Format shall be as specified in Administrative Procedure 10.41,.

3.0 WRITING_INSTRUCTIONAL STEPS 3.1 INSTRUCTION STEP LENGTH AND CONTENT Instruction steps shall be short and exact.

General rules to be used in meeting these objectives are as follows:

Instruction steps should deal with only one idea.

Short, simple sentences should be used in preference to long, compound or complex sentences.

mi0483-0008a-89

Page 2 Complex evolutions should be prescribed in a series of steps.

Objects of operator actions should be specifically stated.

Instructional steps that involve an action verb shall be listed with space provided for operator checkoff in the left hand margin, except for those steps which require continuous or rep_eated operator actions.

Mandatory sequence of steps is assumed unless otherwise stated.

Instruction content should be written to communicate to the minimum expected operator experience and knowledge level.

Expected results of routine tasks need not be stated.

Minimize use of articles (the, a, an) unless they are needed for clarity.

This practice helps reduce the length of instructions, and thus increases reading speed.

When actions are required based upon receipt of an annunciated alarm, list the setpoint of the alarm.

When requiring resetting or restoration of an alarm or trip, list the expected results immediately following the resetting or restoration if it would be beneficial to the operator.

When considered beneficial to the user for proper understanding and performance, describe the system response time associated with performance of the instruction.

When system response dictates a time frame within which the instruction must be accomplished, prescribe such time frame.

If possible, however, avoid using time to initiate operator actions.

Operator actions should be related to Plant parameters.

When anticipated system response may adversely affect instrument indications, describe the conditions that will likely introduce instrument error and means of determining if instrument error has occurred by using a NOTE.

When additional confirmation of system response is considered necessary, prescribe tqe backup readings to be made.

3.2 USE OF LOGIC TERMS The logic terms AND, OR, NOT, IF, IF 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 shall be highlighted.

The use of AND and OR within the same action shall be avoided.

When AND and OR----are usecr-together, the logic can be very ambiguous.

mi0483-0008a-89

Page 3 Use other logic terms as follows:

When attention should be called to combinations of conditions, the word AND shall be placed between the description of each condition.

The word AND shall not be used to join more than three conditions.

If four or more conditions need to be joined, a list format shall be used..

The word OR shall be used when calling attention to alternative combinations of conditions.

The use of the word OR shall always be in the inclusive sense.

To specify the exclusive-"OR", the following may be used:

"either A ORB, but not both".

When action steps are contingent upon certain conditions or combinations of conditions, the step shall begin with the words IF or WHEN followed by a description of the condition or conditions (the antecedent), a comma, the word THEN, followed by the action to be taken (the consequent).

WHEN is used for an expected condition.

IF is used for an unexpected but possible condition.

Use of IF NOT should be limited to those cases in which the operator must respond to the second of two possible conditions.

IF should be used to specify the first condition.

THEN shall not be used at the end of an action step to instruct the operator to perform the next step, because it runs actions together.

3.3 USE OF CAUTIONARY INFORMATION AND NOTES Cautionary information can be considered in two fundamental categories:

those that apply to the entire procedure and those that apply to a portion or a specific step of the procedure.

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 procedural steps to which they apply.

A caution cannot be used instead of an instructional step.

If additional information other than cautions is necessary to support an action instruction, a. NOTE should be used.

A* NOTE should present information only, not instructions, and should be located as close to the applicable instruction as possible.

3.4 CALCULATIONS Mathematical calculations should be avoided in EOPs.

If a value has to be determined in order to perform a procedural step, a chart or graph should be used whenever possible.

mi0483-0008a-89

3.5 USE OF UNDERLINING Underlining shall be used for emphasis of logic terms, CAUTIONS, WARNINGS AND NOTES.

3.6 REFERENCING AND BRANCHING TO OTHER PROCEDURES OR STEPS Page 4 Referencing implies that an additional procedure or additional steps shall be used as a supplement to the procedure presently being used.

Referencing other steps within the procedure being used, either future steps or completed steps, should be minimized.

When only a few steps are involved in the referencing, the steps should be stated in the procedure wherever they are needed.

To minimize potential operator confusion, branching should be used when the operator is to leave one procedure or step and use another procedure or step.

Use the key words "go to" so the operator will know to leave the present step and not return until directed.

  • Use quotation marks to emphasize the title of the referenced or branched procedure; examples:

Go to Step 10 of EOP-1, "Reactor Trip".

3.7 COMPONENT IDENTIFICATION Component identification shall be in accordance with Administrative Procedure 10.41 and the following requirements:

Equipment, controls, and displays shall be identified in operator language (common usage) terms as listed on Attachment 1.

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.

The names of Plant system titles shall be emphasized by initial capitalization.

If the component is seldom used or it is felt that the component would be difficult to find, location information should be given in parenthesis following the identification.

3.8 LEVEL OF DETAIL Too much detail in EOPs should be avoided in the interest of being able to effectively execute the instruction in a timely manner.

The level of detail required should be the detail that a newly trained and licensed operator would desire during an emergency ~ondition.

mi0483-0008a-89

Page 5 To assist in determining the level of detail, the following general rules apply.

For control circuitry that executes an entire function upon actuation of the control switch, the action verb appropriate to the component suffices without further amplification of how to manipulate the control device; -for example, "Open SHU'l'DOWN COOLING RETURN (;';;'*M0-3016)".

Recommended action verbs are as follows:

a.

For power-driven rotating equipment, use Start, Stop.

b.

For valves, use Open, Close, Throttle Open, Throttle Close, Throttle.

c.

For power distribution breakers, use Synchronize and Close, Trip.

For control switches with a positional placement that establishes a standby readiness condition, the verb "Set" should be used, along with the engraved name of the desired position.

Positional placements are typically associated with establishing readiness of automatic functions and are typically named AUTO or NORMAL; for example, "Set PRESSURIZER SPRAY (;';;\\*CV-105 7) in AUTO".

Standard practices for observing for abnormal results need not be prescribed within procedural steps.

For example, observation of noise, vibration, erratic flow, or discharge pressure need not be specified by steps that start pumps.

3.9 PRINTED OPERATOR AIDS 3.9.l When information is presented using graphs, charts, tables and figures, these aids must be self-explanatory, legible, and readable under the expected conditions of use and within the reading precision of the operator.

In addition they must:

Be easily located when referenced to in the text.

Be easily identified from the text information.

Contain only the relevant information needed to accomplish the purpose referred to in the text.

Units of Measure Units of measure used in plotted values should be compatible with divisions shown on the graph.

That is, if plotted values progress in units of five (5, 10, 15) it is better to separate the values by five lines than by four lines.

mi0483-0008a-89

-i

3.9.2 Page 6 Titles and Headings Initial capitalization should be used for references to tables and figures, titles of tables and figures within text material, and column headings within a table.

4.0 MECHANICS OF STYLE 4.1 HYPHENATION Hyphens are used between elements of a compound word when usage calls for it.

The _following rules should be followed for hyphenation.

When doubt exists, the compound word should be restructured to avoid hyphenation.

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.

c.

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 - ag an alternative, two words may be used; example:

fire-escape or fire escape.

e.

When misleading or awkward consonants would result by joining the words; example:

bell-like.

f.

To avoid confusion with another word; examples:

re-cover to prevent confusion with recover, pre-position to avoid confusion with preposition.

g.

When a letter is linked with a noun; examples:

X-ray, 0-ring, U-bolt, I-beam

h.

To separate chemical elements and their atomic weight; examples:

Uranium-235, U-235.

4.2 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.

mi0483-0008a-89

4.2.1 4.2.2 4.2.3 4.2.4 4.2.5 4.2.6 Brackets Do not use brackets.

Colon Use a colon to indicate that a list of items is to follow, for example:

Restore cooling flow as follows:

Comma Page 7 Use of many commas is a sign the instruction is too complex and needs to be rewritten.

Therefore, evaluate the number of commas to ensure the instruction is not too complex.

Use a comma after conditional phrases for clarity and ease of reading.

Example: WHEN level decreases to 60 inches, THEN start pump.

Parentheses Parentheses shall be used to indicate alternative items in a procedure, instruction, or equipment numbers.

Period Use a period at the end of complete sentences and for indicating the decimal place in numbers.

Slant Line Use a slant line to indicate an "either-or" situation and as a substitute for "per" in units of measure; examples:

ft/sec, lbs/hr, gal/min.

4.3 VOCABULARY Words used in procedures should convey precise understanding to the trained person.

The following rules apply~

Use simple words.

Simple words are usually short words of few syllables.

Simple words are generally common words.

Use common usage if it makes the procedure easier to understand.

Use words that are concrete rather than vague, specific rather than general, familiar rather than formal, precise rather than blanket.

Define key words that may be understood in more than one sense.

Verbs with specific meaning should be used.

Examples are listed in.

mi0483-0008a-89

Page 8 Equipment status should be denoted as follows:

a.

Operable/Operability - These words mean that a system, subsystem, train, component, or device is capable of performing its specified function(s) in the intended manner.

Implicit in this definition is the assumption that all necessary attendant instrumentation, controls, normal and emergency electrical power sources, cooling or seal water, lubrication or other auxiliary equipment required for the system, subsystem, train, component, or device to perform its function(s) are also capable of performing related support function(s).

b.

Operating - This word means that a system, subsystem, train, component, or device is in operation and is performing its specified function(s).

c.

Available - This word means that a system, subsystem, train, component, or device is operable and can be used as desired; however, it need not be operating.

4.4 NUMERICAL VALUES The use of numerical values should be consistent with the following rules:

For numbers less than unity, the decim?l point should be preceeded by a zero; for example:* 0.1.

The number of significant digits should be consistent with the reading precision of the operator.

Acceptance values should be specified by stating acceptance values as limits.

Example:

580° to 600°F.

For calibration points, statement of the midpoint and its lower and upper limits for each data cell would accomplish the same purpose; for example, 10 milli-amperes (9.5 to 10.5).

Avoid using+/-.

Engineering units should always be those used on the Control Room displays.

4.5 ABBREVIATIONS, LETTER SYMBOLS AND ACRONYMS The use of abbreviations should be minimized because they may be confusing to those who are not thoroughly familiar with them.

Abbreviations may be used where necessary to save time and space, and when their.meaning is unquestionably clear to the intended reader.

The full meaning of the abbreviation should be written in before the first use of the abbreviation and whenever in doubt.

Consistency should be maintained throughout the procedure.

Capitalization of abbreviations should be uniform.

If the abbreviation is comprised of lowercase letters, it should appear in mi0483-0008a~89

Page 9 lowercase in a title or heading.

The period should be omitted in abbreviations except in those cases where the omission would result in confusion.

  • Letter symbols may be use*d to represent operations, quantities, elements, relations and qualities.

An acronym is a type of symbol formed by the initial letter or letters of each of the successive parts or major parts of a compound term.

Acronyms may be used if they are defined or commonly used.

Abbreviations, symbols and acronyms should not be overused.

Their use should be for the benefit of the reader.

They can be beneficial by saving reading time, ensuring clarity when space is limited, and communicating mathematical ideas.

5.0 GENERAL APPEARANCE 5.1 BREAKING OF WORDS Breaking of words shall be avoided to facilitate operator reading.

5.2 PRINTED OPERATOR AIDS Figures include graphs, drawings, diagrams, and illustrations.

The following rules are established.

The figure field should be of sufficient size to offer good readability.

The essential message should be clear; simple presentations are preferred.

Grid lines of graphs should be at least l/8 11 apart; numbered grid lines should be bolder than unnumbered grid lines.

Labeling of items within the figure should be accompanied by arrows pointing to the item.

The items within the figure should be oriented naturally insofar as possible.

For example, height on a graph should be along the vertical axis.

Tables should be typed using the following rules:

Type style and size should be the same as that for the rest of the procedure.

A heading should be entered for each column.

There should not be a vacant cell in the table.

If no entry is necessary, "N/A" should be entered to indicate not applicable.

mi0483-0008a-89

Page 10 5.3 CAUTIONS, WARNINGS AND NOTES All notes and cautions shall be distinguishable from the rest of the text by using the format required by Administrative Procedure 10.41.

In addition all of the text of a CAUTION or WARNING shall appear on one page, along with the first step of the instruction to which it applies.

5.4 USE OF FOLDOUT PAGES When used, a foldout page is treated as a single page.

It should follow the same format as a standard page except the width is different.

The page should be folded so that a small margin exists between the fold and the right-hand edge of standard pages.

This will reduce wear of the fold.

5.5 USE OF OVERSIZED PAGES Oversize pages should not be used.

They should be reorganized or

'reduced to a standard page.

If this cannot be done, a foldout page should be used.

5.6 USE OF REDUCED PAGES Reduced pages should be avoided whenever possible.

Final size of reduced pages should be standard page size.

Reduced pages should be readable.

~ -------

1.0 General CPCo will use an interdisciplinary team of individuals to perform the Palisades function and task analysis.

This team will involve individuals experienced in the areas of:

a.

Transient analysis of emergency events,

b.

Probabilistic risk assessment,

c.

Systems interactions and system design,

d.

Human factors engineering,

e.

Emergency response procedures,

f.

Instrumentation and control, and

g.

Palisades Plant operations.

The CPCo departments that will participate in the process are Reactor Engineering Dept (RED), Nuclear Activities Plant ORG (NAPO), Nuclear Plant Projects (NPP), Nuclear Plant Support (NPS) and Plant Operations. In the area of the DCRDR an external contractor may participate in the process.

During the scopirig study the following guidelines were established:

a. It is important to utilize all of the CEOG documentation that has been developed in support of Supplement 1 to NUREG-0737.
b. The critical safety functions contained in the EPGs (CEN-152) provide a basis for the function analysis.

The resource trees found in this document will be independently developed in a plant specific fashion to identify:

1.

Success criteria for each safety function,

2.

Modes of control for each success p~th,

3.

Transient characteristics,

4.

Operator actions,

5.

Operator information and control needs,

6.

Equipment requirements,

7.

Key SPDS parameters,

8.

Critical Function Monitoring System (CFMS) alarm algorithm design, and

9.

RG 1.97 instrumentation requirements.

These items constitute the task analysis effort.

MI0684-0016A-NL02

2.0 Function Analysis The function analysis consists of three parts:

a.

Identification and definition of critical safety functions (CSF) that encompass the requirements of section 4.1.f of Supplement 1 to NUREG-0737.

b.

Identification of modes of control for each CSF based on the transient status of key parameters, plant equipment availability and plant response characteristics.

These modes of control will be referenced as "success paths" following the terminology of CEN-152.

c.

Identification of success criteria of the success paths for each CSF.

The use of the term critical safety function (as opposed to "safety function") was chosen to coincide with the terminology used in the CFMS.

The term safety function is used in CEN-152.

For this report both terms are synonymous.

"A critical safety function is any condition or action needed to either prevent core damage or minimize radiation releases to the general public.

If all CSFs are fulfilled, the safety.of the public is preserved."

To accomplish CSFs the operator does not have to know what event has occurred.

He needs to know what CSFs need to be accomplished, how to accomplish the CSFs and what criteria show that the CSF is being accomplished.

2.1 Classification of CSFs For the Palisades Plant, Consumers Power Company has identified eight CSFs that must be fulfilled.

All are directed at mitigating an event or containing and/or controlling radioactivity releases, These CSFs can be grouped into four major classes as follows:

1.

Anti-core melt CSFs,

2.

Containment integrity CSFs,

3.

Indirect radioactivity release CSF, and

4.

Maintenance of vital auxiliaries needed to support other CSFs.

The anti-cor.e melt class contains four CSFs:

1.

Reactivity control,

2.

Primary coolant system (PCS) inventory control,

3.

PCS pressure control, and

4.

PCS temperature control.

MI0684-0016A-NL02

Note that Consumers Power Company has reduced the number of CSFs in this class to four, down from the five contained in CEN-152.

Consumers Power Company has combined two CEN-152 safety functions, namely core heat removal and reactor coolant system heat removal*, into a single CSF named PCS temperature control.

This CSF terminology describes the operators control functions, actions, and instrumentation cues more closely than "heat removal" does.

CEN-152 considers temperature control as two safety functions that (1) remove decay heat generated in the core to a location where (2) it can be removed from the PCS to another heat sink.

The control of these two processes involve the same equipment and instrumentation and therefore are only considered as one CSF.

2.2 Definitions of CSFs The definitions of the anti-core melt CSFs follow:

CSF-1, Reactivity Control The purpose of reactivity control is to achieve and maintain a

  • shutdown condition in the reactor.

CSF-2, PCS Inventory Control The purpose of maintaining PCS inventory control is to provide a medium for the removal of decay heat.

CSF-3, PCS Pressure Control The purpose of PCS pressure control is to maintain the PCS subcooled and prevent the loss of inventory through the pres-surizer power operated relief valves (PORVs) and/or safety valves thereby preventing release of radioactive liquid to the contain-ment and possibly the atmosphere.

The control of the maximum PCS pressure within Technical Specification limits is important to minimize the potential for pressurized thermal shock.

CSF-4, PCS Temperature Control The purpose of the PCS temperature control function is to remove decay heat and cool the PCS to a stable heat removal condition.

The containment integrity class contains two CSFs:

1.

Containment isolation, and

2.

Containment atmosphere control.

Consumers Power Company has reduced the number of CSFs in this class to two, down from the three contained in CEN-152.

Consumers Power Company has combined (1) the containment temperature and pressure control safety function and (2)* the containment combustible gas control safety function into the single containment atmosphere control CSF.

MI0684-0016A-NL02

The definitions of the containment integrity class follow:

CSF-5, Containment Isolation The purpose of the containment isolation function is to maintain closure/blockage of those flow paths required to isolate the containment following_ an event characterized by an increase in containment pressure and/or radioactivity levels or an increased risk of release of activity through a steam generator with leaking tubes.

CSF-6, Containment Atmosphere Control The purpose of the containment atmosphere control function is to maintain the containment temperature, pressure,* and combustible gas concentration within their design limits.

This will provide a barrier to fission product release and prevent damage to vital equipment.

Definitions of the remaining two CSFs follow:

CSF-7, Indirect Radioactivity Release Control The purpose of indirect radioactivity release control is to prevent radioactive releases to the environment from sources outside the containment such as the spent fuel pool and the radioactive waste storage and handling facilities.

CSF-8, Maintenance of Vital Auxiliaries The purpose of maintaining vital auxiliaries is to assure that support systems used to accomplish CSFs 1 through 6 (described above) are kept in service.

Support systems provide service such as instrument air needed in valve operation, AC and DC power needed for valve operation, pump motors, and operating instruments, *and an ultimate heat sink for PCS and core heat removal.

2.3 CSF Hierarchy The CSF concept incorporates a principle of CSF hierarchy.

Some CSFs have precedence over others as far as their sequence of implementation during an event.

Figure 1 summarizes the CSF hierarchy based on tran-sient response characteristics of Palisades.

The hierarchy concept is important in the design of systems used to fulfill each function and was also employed in developing CEN-152.

3.0 Task Analysis Task analysis effort is a detailed extension of the function analysis effort.

Once the CSFs have been identified, a set of "success paths, 11 or modes of CSF control, must be determined.

The Palisades Plant is designed such that each CSF has multiple means of fulfillment.

Each method of fulfillment (mode of CSF control) is called a success path.

During any emergency event, the ~perator needs information on the plant state. This monitoring of the plant state leads to identification of systems available to satisfy the CSFs and the preferred success paths.

CEN-152 presents three principles to use the document:

1.

Principles of Standard Post Trip Actions (SPTA),

2.

Principles of Optimal Recovery Guidelines (ORG), and

3.

Principles of Functional Recovery Guidelines (FRG).

It is expected that the principles of CEN-152 will generally be adhered to by CPCo.

Some of the details may differ.

3.1 Standard Post Trip Actions The purpose of the SPTAs is to provide an entry point for all EPGs.

The emergency is defined as any off-normal event which actuates or requires a reactor trip (RT) to properly mitigate the event.

This definition is consistent with the NUREG 0899 definition and with industry practice.

The SPTA guideline contains, as its first operator action, a check of CSFs against acceptance criteria, followed by,standard actions and alternative actions which can be taken easily and quickly to restore those functions in jeopardy.

SPTAs contain the only immediate actions in the entire system of EPGs.

The purposes for this are to acknowledge the standard post trip actions which are performed by operators following an RT; and to standardize a*

safety function approach to any event which causes an RT.

SPTAs differ from the ORGs and FRGs in the task analysis area in that the level of technical information required extends only to the system level.

Action statements are sufficiently detailed to indicate the systems to be used, including important supporting systems, but detailed step-by-step guidance is not provided for operating (starting or stopping) ~ystems or components.

MI0684-0016A-NL02

3.2 Optimal Recovery Guidelines ORGs are written to cover specific symptom sets.

ORGs are grouped into classes of events which are difficult to distinguish from each other in the short term or which have similar effects on the NSSS over time.

The classes of events considered by CEN-152 are:

1.

Reactor Trip (RT),

2.

Loss of Coolant Accident (LOCA),

3.

Steam Generator Tube Rupture (SGTR),

4.

Excess Steam Demand Event (ESDE),

S.

Loss of Feedwater (LOF), and

6.

Loss of Forced Circulation (LOFC).

Consumers Power Company has not yet concluded that the above list is the best arrangement of ORGs.

Consumers Power Company will determine the specific classes of events to be included in the ORGs during the remainder of the function and task analysis project.

The RT event autom~tically leads the operator to the SPTAs which in turn will lead the operator to the FRGs if the details of the event are uncertain.

The tasks that an *operator performs and the operator instrumentation, decision, and information needs will not be addressed for the ORGs.

The details of this effort will be adequately covered during the task analysis associated with the FRGs.

The operator actions of the ORGs will refer the EOP writer to tasks and task analyses which are grouped according to specific systems or operations and commonly used by the FRGs and the ORGs.

The task analyses performed for the EOP update effort differs signifi-cantly from the task analysis effort which Consumers Power Company normally conducts for the training department.

The task analysis per-formed for training is based on the INPO catalogue of tasks which include_

details of all the actions, jnformation, instrumentation, and system performance associated with the operation of individual components or systems.

This information is used to train the operators how the equipment operates.

MI0684-0016A-NL02

It is assumed for the function and task analysis of the EOP upgrade effort that the operator is fully trained and experienced in the details of component operation provided in the training task analysis.

However, the individual operations used by the EOP upgrade task analysis will refer to the operator actions using the same terminology and catalogued action identification as provided by the Training Department task analysis when referring to specific operator actions.

The specific step-by-step details will not be restated in the EOP upgrade analysis.

Information cues and operator needs will be obtained from the training task analysis where appropriate.

3.3 Functional Recovery Guidelines FRGs are used to combat off-normal symptom pictures which result in a reactor trip and cannot be quickly-or easily diagnosed by the operators.

They may also be used to mitigate symptoms for which the operators have initially selected an ORG but subsequently discovered that they had misdiagnosed or that the ORG was not adequately treating symptoms as anticipated.

The Palisades task analysis will be conducted while developing the FRGs.

FRGs consist of the following sections in CEN-152:

a)

Safety function status check, b)

Resource assessment trees, c)

Op.erator action guidelines, d)

Long term actions, and e)

Bases.

The Palisades task analysis will cover all of these sections in order to provide _plant specific EPGs for the procedure writer.

In addition the task analysis will include sections that provide information for:

a)

Detailed control room design review, b)

Identification of RG 1.97 instrumentation, c)

Key SPDS* parameters, and d)

Critical function monitor system (CFMS) alarm algorithms.

For Palisades the Safety Parameter Display System (SPDS) presents CRT displays of the key parameters used by operators to evaluate the status of the CSFs.

In addition to the CRT which presents the SPDS displays, an additional CRT is avaialble to present the CFMS displays.

The CFMS was developed independently of the SPDS and provides.several key operator aids:

MI0684-0016A-NL02

a)

The alarm algorithms of the CFMS alarm if the success criteria for each CSF are not satisified.

Thus the CFMS is equivalent to the safety function status check (SFSC).

A concise SFSC is provided as the primary CFMS display.

The primary SPDS display contains a SFSC alarm indicator in the lower left hand corner to provide the operator information as to whether or not CSFs are satisified.

b)

The CFMS provides an historical data retrieval system (HDRS) for all SPDS parameters and parameters used by the CFMS.

Trend information can be displayed oh the CFMS CRT or printed in hardcopy form.

c)

The CFMS provides secondary displays for each CSF that show the status of safety function equipment needed for CSF success paths.

This aids the operator in selecting the correct success path and success criteria for the CSF.

NOTE:

One computer is used for the SPDS and the CFMS displays.

However, the CRT for the SPDS displays only the key CSF parameters.

A discussion of each of the task analysis operations is provided in the following sections:

3.3.l Safety Function Status Check The SFSC is the entry point for the FRG.

It is used to assess the status of each CSF.

The SFSC is structured to facilitate the selection of appropriate operator actions which will restore CSFs in jeopardy. Since CSFs are a complete set of the actions or conditions which will provide for plant and public safety, an EPG-which fulfills all of the CSFs preserves plant safety.

The SFSC lists the CSFs which must be checked in an emergency.

For Palisades the.CFMS provides a continuous computerized check of the SFSC items and displays and alarms when any CSF is unful-filled.

The SFSC lists the success paths associated with each CSF.

Listing the success paths permits the operator to select the CSF criteria appropriate to the success path in use.

For any given CSF, the appropriate criteria to use are those associated with the lowest success path on the list. After performing the SFSC and attempting to diagnos~ the plant condition, the operator will be generally aware of what equipment is operating.

Secondary displays of the Palisades CFMS will provide this equipment status for most success paths. If the CFMS is not operable, the Resource Assessment Tree charts for the CSF will assist in surveying the plant status.

Success paths are shown on the resource assessment trees in left to right orientation.

Moving to the right, the p~ths correspond to progressively more degraded plant conditions.

MI0684-0016A-NL02

The SFSC also contains the success criteria for each CSF.

The success criteria are organized in the SFSC such that each success path has its respective success criteria next to it. These are the success criteria used in the CFMS alarm algorithms.

Each CSF listed in the SFSC also contains reference to its respective resource assessment tree.

3.3.2 Resource Assessment Trees Resource assessment trees are pictorial representations of plant resources available to fulfill each CSF.

The trees are intended to assist the operator in evaluating plant resources available to fulfill CSFs.

A pictorial representation provides simplicity and clarity and is compatible with CRT displays.

Each limb of a tree starts at the top with the name of the CSF, then (working down) the name of the success path (mode), then the plant conditions and equipment used in that path (conditions, source, motive, power), then the su~cess criteria for that path, and finally, the number of the recovery guideline associated with that path.

3.3.3 Operator Action Guidelines Each success path in each resource assessment tree has a corres-ponding set of operator action (recovery) guidelines for imple-mentation of that success path.

Because different success paths may utilize the same quipment, more than one success path may reference the same guideline.

Guidelines are numbered according to the CSFs they serve.

For example, PC-2 is the second operator action guideline associated with PCS pressure control.

Each operator action guideline has the following structure:

1.

Name and number of the guideline,

2.

The recovery action steps for that path,

3.

The task numbers, using the INPO training nomenclature, associated with each recovery action step,

4.

The instrumentation information such as range, accuracy, speed of response, and setpoints used in the DCRDR,

5.

The key parameters that must be observed to satisfy the success

. path and displayed on the SPDS,

6.

The success criteria for that path used in the SFSC and the CFMS alarm algorithms, and

7.

Supplementary information for use of that path which should be considered when preparing the Palisades EOPs.

The items included should be precautions, cautions, notes, or information to be placed in the EOP training program.

MI0684-0016A-NL02 J

It should be clear that the above items constitute the basic task analysis effort.

3.3.4 Long Term Actions The long term actions section of the FRG is designed to ensure that the operator continues to periodically verify the adequate maintenance of safety functions, assesses the status of the plant, implements the appropriate ORG if conditions warrent, and determines the necessity, feasibility and/or urgency to perform a cooldown to cold shutdown conditions.

3.3.5 Bases The bases section for the FRG is a dialogue between 'the guideline preparer (function and task analysis team) and the procedure writer.

It is not intended that the bases appear in the_ de-tailed, plant specific EOP but rather it appears in preparing EOPs and in operator training.

The bases include information such as plant data, licensing analysis, realistic transient analysis, incident reports, sequence of events diagrams, and operating experience.

The bases presents a condensed form of this information for the DCRDR, RG 1.97 instrumentation team, the SPDS designer, the EOP writer, operators, and training personnel.

The bases section provides technical information that increases the operator's ability to identify the FRG that is appropriate and understand corrective actions expected.

The following points are addressed in the bases section:

1.

Overview of the FRGs for a given CSF,

2.

Potential events that could require the FRG to be required,

3.

General characteristics of the transients,

4.

Equipment required for the fulfillment of the FRG, and

5.

A detailed discussion of the range and trend of key parameters that exercise the FRG for a given CSF.

The following list contains examples of the significant plant parameters that are considered:

MI0684-0016A-NL02 Reactor Power PCS.Temperature Pressurizer Pressure Pressurizer Level Steam Generator Level Steam Generator Pressure Reactor Vessel Inventory

6.

Description of the operator action (tasks) objectives in satisfying the FRG for a given CSF and why these actions are

taken,
7.

The intermediate and long range goals of the actions for each CSF success path,

8.

The alternate success paths for each CSF, and

9.

How the success criteria for each CSF success path are established.

4.0 Validation and Verification When the function and task analysis effort is complete for Palisades the resulting information will be verified and validated prior to final implementation of the EOPs.

4.1 Verification Verification is the process by which the technical information in the EOPs is demonstrated to be accurate and complete.

The verification of the function and task analysis for Palisades will consist of:

a)

Technical review by Reactor Engineering Department (RED),

b)

Technical Review by Operations Department c)

Technical review by Nuclear Activities Plant Organization (NAPO).

The outcome of this verification process is a function and task analysis which is technically sound and complete.

4.2 Validation Validation is the process by which the function and task analysis information is demonstrated to be useable by the operators.

Validation will be accomplished by demonstration of the information on the Palisades simulator.
