Dear Mr. Beaton:

I s

As noted in the February 1993 issue of the HFES Bulletin, organizations i

interested in participating in the review of the revised ANSI /HFS 100-1988 should contact the ANSI /HFES 100 Canvass Committee.

On behalf of the Human Factors Assessment Branch staff (HHFB) at the U.S.

Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC), I would like to express my. staff's strong j

interest in participating in the review process.- For your information, the 1

HHFB staff, numbering over a dozen human factors professionals, is currently l

engaged in evaluation of several advanced control room designs for the next generation of nuclear po.<er plants. As part of these ongoing evaluations, the j

staff has applied many human factors guidelines'and industry standards, including ANSI /HFS 100-1988. The insights gained from working with these the j

documents on complex process control design issues ~ have been quite useful, and have aided the staff in the development of a human factors program review model to support these evaluations. Therefore, I believe both the HHFB staff and the ANSI /HFES 100 Canvass Committee would benefit from the NRC's participation on the review committee.

Please feel free to contact me at, (301) 504-2160, should you need more information or.would like to discuss this issue further.

Sincerely, ard J..Eckenrode, Acting Chief uman Factors Assessment Branch Y
