Dear Mr. Denton:

River Bend Station Unit 1 Docket No. 50-458 This response addresses the River Bend Station (RBS) Detailed Control Room Design Review (DCRDR) Program Plan as committed in Gulf States Utilities Company's (GSU) April 15, 1983 letter and requested in Generic Letter 82-33, " Supplement 1 to NUREG-0737 - Requirements for Emergency Response Capability". The Program Plan (attached) discusses how the RBS I

DCRDR will be conducted to identify human engineering descrepancies (HEDs).

I A DCRDn Summary Report of the completed review will outline RBS main control room design changes and their schedules for implementation. The l

DCRDR Summary Report is scheduled for submittal during October, 1984. At that time, the additional information requested by the Human Factors Engineering Branch (HFEB) in a NRC letter dated August 27, 1981 from Robert Perch, Project Manager, will have been provided.

GSU understands that a NRC three-day pre-implementation site audit by the HFEB may be scheduled approximately one month after receipt of the RBS DCRDR Summary Report (November, 1984). This decision will be based on the review of the RBS DCRDR Program Plan and Summary Report. If the NRC does not perform a pre-impicmentation onsite audit, then the NRC will conduct a review and issue its Safety Evaulation Report (SER) within two months after receipt of the RBS DCRDR Summary Report (December, 1984).

Please inform GSU of your schedule for reviewing the DCRDR Program Plan and Summary Report and issuance of the SER based on the above information.

Sincerely,

1.0 INTRODUCTION

Gulf States Jtilities Company (GSU) has recognized the need to improve the man-machine interface in the main control room and has focused an effort toward that goal. A BWROG Control Room Survey program was performed in a preliminary review of the River Bend Station (RBS) Main Control Room panels after they were assembled in the GE manufacturing facility in San Jose in August, 1981. The BWROG Generic Program Plan addressing the Planning and Review phases of a Detailed Control Room Design Review (DCRDR) was submitted to the NRC by Reference A. The NRC approved the BWROG Plan with comments in Reference B, stating that the BWROG Control Room Survey program is an acceptable approsch to the Planning and Review phases of the Detailed Control Room Design Review. The requirements for conducting a detailed control room design review are included in NUREG-0737 Supplement 1, (Reference C). This program plan submittal describes the plan which GSU will follow to conduct a DCRDR in accordance with the requirements of References B and C.

2.0 OVERVIEW 2.1 Purpose The purpose of the DCRER is to:

1) Review and evaluate the control room workspace (Figure 1) and remote shutdown panel, instrumentation, controls and other equipment from a human factors engineering viewpoint, taking into account both systems' demands and operator capabilities.
2) To identify, assess and implement control room 1esign enhancements and modifications to correct items which are safety-related or otherwise substantially impact tbn potential for operator error, particularly in preventing or coping with emergency situations.

2.2 Objectives The objectives of the DCRDR are:

1) To identify improvements in the control room / operator interface which have the potential to reduce the probability of error, particularly with regard to preventing or coping with emergency situations.
2) To evaluate any identified problems, establish relative priorities and corrective action plans according to specific. evaluation criteria.
3) To verify that each selected design improvement will provide the necessary correction and can be introduced in the control room without creating unacceptable human engineering discrepar.cies (HED) because of significant contribution to increased risk, unreviewed safety 1

I c questions or situations in which a temporary reduction in f safety could occur.

4) To coordinate improvements with changes resulting from other human factors / emergency response improvements.

2.3 Description of DCRDR Activities To achieve the objectives of the DCRDR, a number of activities must be completed. A flowchart showing the interrelationships of the DCRDR activities is presented in Figure 2.

The DCRDR has been split into six phases:

o Planning o Review o Assessment o Reporting o Imp 1cmentation o Maintenance A brief synopsis of these activities follows:

2.3.1 Planning Phase b The planning phase commenced with the establishment of the BWROG Control Room Improvements Committee in January , 1980. The planning phase was described in detail in Reference A. The planning for outstanding activities is detailed in this plan.

2.3.2 Review Phase The review phase consists of a control room survey conducted by a multidisciplinary team to compare the characteristics of thu control room with appropriate human engineering design guidelines, an operating experience review (including documentation and operator interviews) and function / task analysis of emergency operating procedures. The review phase of the DCRDR fcr RBS will be performed in accordance with the BWROG methodology for che operator interview, control room survey, and survey supplement as described in Sections 5.1 and 5.2. The systems review and task analysis portions of the review phase will be conducted as described in Sections 5.3 through 5.5.

Thirteen panels were reviewed during the original survey by operations and engineering personnel from three utilities, a human factors specialist froa the F.:ssachusetts Institute of Technology, and representatives from the NSSS vendor and the architect engineer. The scope of this preliminary review was defined so as to be comensurate with the current manufacturing status of the control panels, i

concentrating.primarily upon panel design, instrumentation and hardware. Since the panels were.

. staged in the factory at the time of the survey, it was not possible to evaluate.some sections of the BWROG Control Room Survey checklists. These sections

  • were listed _in a summary report that was submitted to GSU in December, 1981. The summary report provides a complete list of items for,which control room

. modifications or enhancemente should be assessed, and lists favorable aspects of the control roca design that were noted by the team. The items that now

. remain in the review phase, therefore, consist of completing the BWROG checklist and.its supplement, the operating experience review and performing function and task analysis for the emergency operating procedures. The results of the task analysis will be compared with the in-place inventory of controls and displays in the control room to assure that the control room supports the Emergency Operating Procedures (EOP's) or identifies missing displays or controls. With regard to the operating experience review which is a part of the review phase for an operating plant, because of the RBS construction status, it is planned to substitute operator experience on the simulator for operator experience'in the main control room.

2.3.3 Assessment Phase During the assessment phase, identified HEDs will be evaluated with regard to their probability for causing operator error and the potential impact of E the error on safe plant operat ion. A categorization according to priority category will be performed.

Corrective action plans will be established for all significant HEDs. Consideration will be given to correction by enhancement, design modifications,

. procedure and training improvements and the capabilities of other emergency response improvements, e.g. Safety Parameter Display System (SPDS)-.

The resulting corrective action plans will be integrated .and correlated with the other NUREG-0737 Supplement 1 emergency response improvement actions.

2.3.4 Reporting Phase After completing the assessment phase, a summary report of the DCRDR will be prepared and submitted to the NRC. The summary report will include a discussion of any changes made in the program execution,'if any, from the program plan, summarize the HEDs identified, outline proposed control room changes and present the schedule for implementation.

-The report-will.also provide a summary justification 5

f for HEDs with safety significance if left uncorrected or partially corrected.

2.3.5 Implementation Phase The implementation phase will be the actual accomplishment of the control room improvements according to the schedule submitted in the summary report.

2.3.6 Maintenance Phase s

The maintenance phase consists of the continuing attention given to human factors engineering in the control room with regard to procedures, modifications and review of unusual events.

A verification of design improvements will be '

conducted to ensure that the proposed corrective action plans can be accomplished without creating other problems and that the functions allocated to the control room operators can be effectively accomplished.

3.0 DEFINITIONS Emergency Operating Procedures (EOP's) - Plant procedures directing the operator actions necessary to mitigate the consequences of transients and accidents that cause plant parameters to exceed reactor protection setpoints, engineered safety feature setpoints, or other appropriate technical limits.

Em9rgency Procedures Guidelines (EPG's) - Guidelines developed from system analysis of transients and accidents that provide sound technical bases for plant-specific E0P's.

Function (Subfunction) - A kind of activity (or a static role) performed by one or more system coastituents (people, mechanisms, structures) to contribute to a larger activity or goal state.

Function / Functional Analysic - The exaaination of system goals to determine what functions they require. Also, examination of the required functions with respect to available manpower, technology and other resources, to determine how the functions may be allocated and execuced.

Function Allocation - The distribution of functions among the humar and automated constituents of a system.

Human Factors Engineering (HFE) - The science of optimizing the performance of human beings in man-machine systems. More narrowly, the science of design of equipment for efficient use by human beings

\ (also known as bioengineering, biotechnology, engineering psychology, ergonomics, and human engineering).

6

Human Engineering Discrepancy (HED) - A characteristic of the existing control room that does not comply with the human engineering criteria used in the control room survey.

Safety Related - Plant systems, portions of systems, structures and equipment whose f ailure or malfunction could cause a release of radioactivity in excess of those limits specified in 10CFR100. This class also includes equipment which is vital to a safe shutdown of the plant and the removal of decay and sensible heat or equipment which is necessary to mitigate consequences to the public of a postulated accident. This class includes ASHE Code Class 1, 2, & 3 items fabricated and installed under ASME Section III. Included in this class are any activities or services that affect the safety function in the design, operation and maintenance of safety-related structures, systems or components.

System (Subsystem) - An organization of interdependent human-equipment constituents that work together in a patterned manner to accon.plish some purpose.

System Function Analysis - The determination of system functions required to meet system goals.

Task (Subtask) - A specific action, performed by a single system const[tuent,personorequipment, that contributes to the accomplishment of a function.

Task Analysis - The systematic process of identifying and examining operator tasks in order to identify conditions, information, and instrumentation and control requirements associated with the performance of a task. In the DCRDR context, task analysis is used to determine the individual tasks that must be completed to allow successful emergency operation. In addition, this activity can verify and validate the match of information available in the main control room to the information requirements of the emergency operating tasks.

Validation - The process of determining whether the main control room operating crew can effectively perform their functions given the control room instrumentation and controls, procedures, and training. In the DCRDR context, validation implies a dynamic performance evaluation.

Verification - The process of determining whether instrumentation, controls, and other equipment are available to meet the specific requirements of the emergency tasks performed by operators. The contro? room survey and task analysis are verification activities, l checking the main control room match to the human operator.

4.0 MANAGEMENT AND STAFFING The ultimate responsibility for the RBS DCRDR will reside with' the RBS plant manager. The day-to-day conduct of the review will be the responsibility of the DCRDR review team. The original main control room survey was led by the BWROG Control Room Survey Team. Appendix i

4.2 Review Team Activities The initial development of methodology for the review was performed under the BWROG as discussed in Reference A. The methodology for the assessment of HED's described in this plan was developed by the review team. The review team participated with GSU management in establishing the overall plan and schedule for the DCRDR. The review team will perform the outstanding activities and integrate all action items. The review team will be responsible for the preparation of all reports related to the DCRDR and ensure that appropriate reports are submitted to GSU management for review and approval.

4.3 Coordination and Integration with Supplement I to NUREG-0737 Activities Given the integrative nature of Generic Letter No. 82-33, the DCRDR process will be coordinated with other post-TMI activities that are addressed in the letter. The results of the DCRDR project can be utilized in specific applications as discussed below:

E0Ps - The Systems Function Description and Task Analysis portion.of the review will use the RBS specific E0Ps as 10

its basis. Thus, examination of the E0Ps will inherently integrate their upgrading with the DCRDR.

SPDS - One of the aspects of the DCRDR project is to identify and define operator requirements during conditions of emergency operation. These requirements may define s me of the necessary plant inputs to the SPDS and the display formats for the graphic displays. In addition, the SPDS may provide operator information requirements that could preclude scme control room modification (e.g. installation of additional displays or rearrangement of displays).

Regulatory Guide 1.97 - The Verification of the Task Performance Capabilities pcrtion of the DCRDR (Section 5.4) systematically veriffeu the presence or absence of information required by the operator during emergency operations. The results of this process will give insight into the monitoring instrumentation that is available to the operator and, conversely, if any type of indication is required but missing.

4.4 Review Team Orientation Jhe initial BWROG review team received their orientation by

' attending a BWROG Control Room Survey Workshop on October 8-15, 1980. Topics covered included control room design review objectives, human factors principles, BWROG checklist, operating experience review, task analysis and simulator survey performance exercises. A f amiliarization with the main control room panels was performed when the survey commenced.

A second BWROG Control Room Survey Workshop was held on October 18-20, 1983. Topics covered included human factors principles, NUREG-0737 Supplement 1, NRC Generic Letter 83-18, BWROG Control Room Survey development and methodology, checklist supplement, operating experience review update, task analysis on emergency operating procedures and simulator performance exercises on the checklist supplement and task analysis.

A brief orientation with the plant, previous survey results and plans for outstanding work in the main control room will be held when the performance of this checklist supplement commences. The close coordination between the plant and c.onsultant personnel on the team will allow any additional orientation needs which may arise to be met on an as-needed basis.

5.0 REVIEW PROCEDURES The DCRDR for RBS is being performed according to the review procedures described below.

The procedures which are being used for the operating experience review, historical report review and control room survey were transmitted to the NRC by Reference A and approved by the NRC in 11

7

('

Reference B. One of the comments in Reference B was that the plant-specific program plan should document the number and extent of plant

-personnel participation. Appendices A and B indicate the plant personnel participation in both the original survey and the remaining activities.

5.1 Operator Interviews and Historical Report Review 5.1.1 Operator Interviews The purpose of the Operator Interview is to obtain

. direct operator input to aid in identifying potential or actual deficiencies in t' ae control room layout or design or in operating procedutes that result in confusion (mental activities), difficulty (manual activities) or distraction (the environment).

Using the questionnaire in Appendix C, operators will be asked to' respond in writing based on their operational experience and knowledge of the RBS main control room or RBS simulator. Interviewees will retain'a copy of their completed questiennaire forms and review them with a survey team member during a later oral interview. If additional space is needed, tha attached Comment Form is to be used. With regard

. to the number of personnel to be interviewed, a representative group of the operators (six to eight) covering a range of experience, education, ability and physical size will be interviewed. In addition, several RBS simulator training instructors will be interviewed.

The interviews will be conducted by members of the DCRDR team with background or experience in operations and engineering or design with a position conducive.to a free flow of information. It is expected that each oral interview will take one to.

two hours.

Following the interviews, the survey team will consolidate the information obtained and analyze it to help identify specific areas of concern for detailed analysis during the DCRDR assessment phase.

5.1.2 Historical Report Review

' Review of LERs and scram reports of operating plants have resulted in identifying possible humsn factor design considerations that may have contributed to operator errors. 'The BWROG DCRDR survey program recommends review of LERs during the last two years of plant operations for use as a source in identifying the human engineering discrepancies.

Due to the construction nature of RBS and the unavailability of LERs, a procedure will be followed 12

to extract the necessary information from plants that are similar in design and in control room arrangement to RBS. This will be accomplished by reviewing the BWROG Control Room Design Summary Report, Reference F, which reported the results of sixteen control room reviews. The identified HED's for these plants will be checked against RBS control room inventory, and later analyzed in the DCRDR assessment phase.

5.2 Control Room Survey The purpose of the control room survey is to identify the character.stics of important controls and displays, the usefulness of audio and visual alarm systems, plant status information provided, the control room layout and environment, and other areas of human factors engineering that potentially impact operator effectiveness. This is accompliahed by conducting a systematic comparison of existing control room inventory against human engineering guidelines. The ultimate objective is to identify potential modifications of the operator - control room interface which will reduce the potential for human error.

5.2.1 BWROG 1981 Survey I- The procedures used in conductia.g the RBS DCRDR survey followed the BWROG control room guidelines of Reference A. The survey was conducted by the review team using checklists developed by the BWROG.

Supplemental information was provided in the EVROG workshop to give additional guidance to the review team members in completing the checklists. Each checklist item wts presented in the form of a question for consideration by a survey team member.

Following that question was a series of numbers in which tSe specific item being reviewed was evaluated.

The first set of numbers (4, 3, 2,1, 0) indicated the degree of compliance wherein (4) indicated no compliance, (3) indicated somewhat in compliance, (2) indicated mostly in compliance, (1) indicated full compliance, and (0) indicated the specific question being considered was not applicable or could not be considered at this time. As each specific question was evaluated, the team member (s) actually doing the evaluation of that question indicated the relative degree of compliance by circling the applicable number.

Following the number indicating the degree of compliance for each item being evaluated was a predetermined number ranging from one to three which indicated the relative importance of that item with respect to the potential for causing or contributing to operator error. A (3) indicated high potential for operator error, a (2) indicated moderate potential, and a (1) indicated low potential. In the 13

i final evaluation of each item considered, it was the product of the degree of compliance multiplied by the potential for operator error that determined if the

. consideration of corrective action is justified.

Following each checklist item was space for the person performing the evaluation to enter comments.

For each specific checklist item, these comments identified items or components of non-compliance, the scope of review,Jor.any qualifying statement judged to be appropriate'to the evaluation. If, for example, a large. number of components are reviewed and only a few were non-compliance, these were specifically noted in the comment space and the general. rating was "mostly compliance." To provide additional documentation, still photographs were taken of major items or components of non-compliance such as mimic layouts, control / display groupings, labelling systems or equipment locations. These photographs were cross referenced to the specific checklist item by a notation in the comment space Due to the importance of comments in the evaluation, additional comment forms were attached for more detail when necessary.

Since the RBS control panels w.ere staged in the factory at the time of the 1981 survey, it was not possible to evaluate some sections of the BWROG Control Room Survey Checklists. In addition, due to the manufacturing status of the control panels during the survey, several panel inserts and significant-instrumentation were not installed at the time of the

-survey. These have been listed in Appendix A of the 1981 RBS Control Room Summary Report and will be reviewed in the second phase'of the RBS DCRDR at the time of. performing the survey checklist supplement.

The 1981 survey concentrated primarily upon the following' areas: e o Panel Layout and Design o Instrumentation and Hardware o Annunciators o' Emergency. Procedure Instrumentation Each of these control room survey areas and the general recommendations for enhancements are listed below:

5.2.1.1 Panel Layout and Design

1. Many backpanels have controls and displays mounted above and below recommended heights.
2. The dimensions of panel 680 are not optimized for a seated operator.

14

3. In many instances, functional groupings of controls and displays could be enhanced with demarcation lines and summary labels.
4. Some aspects of mimic layout could be improved.

Flowpaths should be readily apparent, crowding avoided, symbology and color coding consistent.

5. The panel color code should be improved and consistently applied.

t

6. Labels should be more succinct.
7. A hierarchical labeling system should be instituted.

5.2.1.2 Instrumentation and Hardware

1. Control room indicators and recorders should be reviewed to determine which would benefit from the addition of marking or color coding to indicate normal and abnormal ranges.
2. Non-standard indicator scales should be avoided.
3. Larger indicators should be considered for some parameters on panel 680.
4. Some indicator labels should be corrected, indicating the correct units.
5. Labels for pen recorders should clearly specify the input point assigned to each pen.
6. Multi-point recorders should be used only where such a format is applicable. Where used, consideration should be given to more widespread application of point select and fast speed capabilities.
7. A lamp test feature should be considered.
8. Shape coding of switch handles should be considered.
9. Emergency switches should be clearly marked.

5.2.1.3 Annunciators

1. The usability of the annunciator system could be improved by prioritizing alarms, segregating informational and advisory displays, clarifying ambiguous legends and providing an alpha-numeric code for window indentification.

15

3'

2. Larger lettering should be used on panel 6TO annunciator windows.
3. A first out feature should be provided.

5.2.1.4 Emergency Procedure Instrumentation L

1. Annunciator legends should clearly specify the function of the alarm. Redundant annunciators should be avoided.
2. Indicators and recorders should be provided with range markings identifying' action levels addressed in emergency procedures.
3. Certain modifications of display methods and formats could enhance the effectiveness of the control room as an operator aid during transient conditions.
4. Some information potentially useful to the operator is not available in the main operating area of the control room.

, 5. Some modificat2on of instrumentation may be necessary to enable the operator to evaluate the state of the plant in accordance with certain considerations addressed in the guidelines.

5.2.2 BWROG 1983 Survey Checklist Supplement The supplement is intended to augment Revision 1 of the BVROG Control Room Survey Program dated 1/1/81.

It is to be included as part of the Control Room Review Checklists to further document proposed main control room improvements. The additional items listed in the supplement have been drawn from human engineering guidelines recommended in NUREG-0700 and verified through considerable experience of the BWROG survey teams.

Major sections of the supplement checklists are identified by letters corresponding to section derignations used in the original checklists. In order to differentiate between the two numbering systems, and "S" prefix has been assigned to each supplement item. The supplement checklist sections are:

. SA. Panel Layout and Design SB. Instrumentation and Hardware SC. Annunciators SD. Computers SE. Procedures SF. Control Room Environment SG. Maintenance and Surveillance 16

___ _ _ _ _ ____ _._ ___ _ __..___ _____ _ ___________m

This checklist supplement will be performed during the planned DCRDR activities. The results of BWROG 1981 Checklist Survey and the 1983 Supplement Survey will be compiled on HED forms described in Section 7, Documentation and Document Control. These forms will be included in the input documentation for the DCRDR Assessment Phase.

5.3 Systems Review and Task Analysis

' 5.3.1 Purpose The purpose of the Systems Function Description and Task Analysis portion of the DCRDR is to identify control room operator tasks and corresponding instrumentation and control requirements during emergency operations. This will be accomplished by performing an analysis of events encompassed in the RBS specific Emergency Operating Procedures (EOPs).

5.3.2 . Methodology This portion of the DCRDR entails two major, sequentially oriented tasks. Each of the two tasks is discussed separately below.

5.3.2.1 Systems Function Description Plant systems and subsystems in the main control room have been identified and listed in the RBS FSAR. Major systems include the reactor control and instrumentation systems, safety systems, feedwater systems, power generation systems, and power distribution systems.

Subsystems are identified only if they are considered operationally separate.from the major system of which they are a part.

The functions associated with each system

- and subsystem are described in the RBS FSAR. This information will serve as a

>- reference base for the subsequent Task

'~

Analysis and Assessment phases. In addition, the systems list will be used in

.the selection of cperating scenarios for each walk-through during the Task Analysis.

l: 5.3.2.2 Task Analysis Using the RBS specific E0Ps as a basis, the

-Task Analysis will identify and document the discrete tasks that the operators must perform during emergency operations.

. Correspondingly, the specific

-17

l l

instrumentation, controls and equipment that are required to successfully perform the emergency operations will be identified and documented. Task analysis data collected as part of the E0P upgrade ef fort will be used as a basis for the DCRDR task analysis effort.

The INPO NUTAC DCRDR Task Analysis Guideline will be used as a reference for the task analysis t<> be conducted for the RBS DCRDR. The guideline provides a general description of the task analysis process to be followed. It provides sample forms for (1) control and display requirements, and (2) task analysis worksheet data to be collected.

A preliminary Task Analysis Form is included in Appendix C. Operator tasks will be analyzed using the symptom-oriented E0Ps and documented in the following manner:

1. The identification of discrete steps in the E0Ps in order of performance.

These steps will be recorded in the

" Procedural Step" column of the Task Analysis Form and branching points noted depending on the plant transient being analyzed.

2. A brief description of the operator's tasks per procedural step will be recorded in the " Operator Tasks" column of the Task Analysis Form.
3. The identif.4 cation of the instrumentation and/or controls that the operator requires per procedural step to either: (1) initiate, maintain or remove from service a system, (2) confirm that an appropriate system response has or has not occurred, i.e., feedback, or (3) make a decision regarding plant or system status The required instrumentation and controls will be recorded in the "l&C Requirements" column of the Tasks Analysis Form.

The remaining columns of the Task Analysis Form will be utilized during the Verification of Task Performance Capabilities, which is described in Section 5.4.

18

5.3.2.3 Control Room Inventory The function intended for a control room inventory in the DCRDR is to determine whether the instrumentation and controls needed to support operation under emergency

. conditions actually exist. (See INPO NUTAC Implementation Guideline-Reference I).

This function will be accomplished as part of the task-analysis effort and th6 related verification and validation efforts. The determination of I&C availability is described in Section 5.4.

In addition, a complete set of control board photographs will be taken to provide an as-built inventory of the RBS instrumentation and controls during the DCRDR.

5.4 Verification of Task Performance Capabilities 5.4.1 Purpose The purpose of the Verification of Task Performance Capabilities is to systematically verify that the instrumentation and controls that were identified in the task analysis as being required by the operator are:

o Present in the main control room o Effectively designed to support correct procedure performance 5.4.2 Methodology The Verification of Task Performance Capabilities will utilize a two-phase approach to achieve the purpose stated above. In the first phase, the presence or absence of the instrumentation and controls that were noted in the task analysis will be confirmed. This will be done by comparing the requirements in the "I&C Requirements" column of the Task Analysis Form to the actual main control room.

5.4.2.1 I&C Availability The presence or absence of required instrumentation and controls will be noted in the "yes" or "no" areas, respectively, in the " Availability" column of the Task.

Analysis Form. If it is discovered that required instrumentation and controls are not available to the operator, any such occurrence will be identified as an HED and documented.accordingly on an HED form.

19

The result of the verification of I&C availability will be a main control room inventory (in the Task Analysis Form column labelled "I&C Requirements") of instrumentation and controls needed to support operation under emergency conditions.

5.4.2.2 I&C Suitability The second phase will determine the human engineering suitability of the required instrumentation and controls. For pram,nla, if a meter utilized in a particular procedure step exists in the main control room, that particular meter will be examined to determine wnether or not it has the appropriate range and scaling to support the operator in the corresponding procedural step. If the range and scaling are appropriate, it will be noted by checking the "yes" area in the "I&C Suitability" column of the Task Analysis Form. Conversely, if the meter range or scaling is not appropriate for the parameter of interest to the operator, the "no" area in the "I&C Suitability" column of the Task Analysis Form will be checked.

This type of occurence will be defined as an HED and documented accordingly on an HED form.

5.5 Validation of Control Room Functions 5.5.1 Purpose The purpose of the Validation of Control Room Functions step in the DCRDR process is to determine whether the functions allocated to the control room operating crew can be accomplished effectively within (1) the structure of the RBS specific E0Ps and (2) the design of the. main control room as it exists.

Additionally, this step provides an opportunity to identify HEDs that may not have become evident in the static processes of the DCRDR. for example, in the control' room survey.

5.5.2 Methodology Utilizing the completed Task Analysis Forms from the Sytems Functions Description and Task Analysis DCRDR phase, walk-throughs will be performed in the RBS plant specific simulator based on the symptom-oriented E0Ps developed from the BWROG EPGs. A 20 l __ _ _ _ _ _ _ - _ - ..

normal complement of the operating crew will be performing the walk-throughs.

The purpose of the walk-through is to evaluate the operational aspects of control room design in terms of control / display relationships, display grouping, control feedback, visual and communication links, manning levels and traffic patterns.

The operating crew will be provided with c.opies of the latest revision of the E0Ps to follow as they are walking through the events. DCRDR team members will use the partially completed Task Analysis Worksheets to record observations and potential HEDs.

One event at a time will be walked-through.

Operators will be requested to perform the walk-through in slower than real time to provide a relatively slow paced rehearsal of the event.

During the walk-throughs, the operators will be instructed to speak one at a time and describe their actions. Since this will force serial action, the operations will not be performed simultaneously.

Specifically, the operators will verbalize:

o The component or parameter being controlled or monitored o The purpose of the action o The expected result of the action in terms of system response As the operators walk-through the event, they will point to each control or display that they utilize, and indicate which annunciators are involved.

As the walk-throughs proceed, the operators will note say errors, such as improper step sequencing or branching, that may occur on the Task Analysis Forms.

These errors will be traced back to the E0Ps for investigation to ascertain whether the error occurred because of a procedural problem.

If a procedural problem is discovered, it will be documented. This documentation will be used in responding to Item 7 of Supplement 1 to NUREG-0737, which involves the Upgrade of Emergency Operating Procedures. Procedure validation problems will be addressed as part of the task analysis and walkthroughs of the upgraded E0Ps. This documentation will also be useful in any type of long-term training program which involves procedures upgrades.

The operators who performed the event will review the Task Analysis Worksheets along with a human factors 21

y; r +

'y .

D.WQ, f.'-Y-specialist. The operators will be asked to note any fijc, errors or problems that were encountered in the tuch -

walkthroughs and to expound upon the source of the <

errors or problems. These errors or problems will be I"#.

documented for investigation as possible HEDs.

=-

For each procedural step, the following types of information will be recorded:

o The identification of which member of the operating crew is performing the task.

This will be added to the " Operator Tasks" column on the Task Analysis Form. 2 o A description of the specific behavioral t action that is associated with each operator task. This will include communications between and among crew _

members. This will be added to the -

" Operator Tasks" column on the Task Analysis Form. '

.T o A description of the system response as a e function of the instrumentation and ~

controls required in the associated {

procedural step (i.e., an indicating ifght on a controller energizing to red, or a -

pointer on a meter deflecting upward). gg This will be added to the " Instrumentation and Controls Required" column of the Task -[

Analysis Form. -*-_

Once the events have been analyzed to extract the information noted above, Link Analysee, which trace the movement patterns of the operating crew in the main control room, will be prepared to assess whether --

the control room layout hinders operator movement j while performing the events.

The final step in the validation process will be to have a reactor operator who did not walk or talk through the events review the analysis in an attempt -

to uncover any operator task difficulties from an independent objective viewpodra. 0*( al Any dynamic performance problems that were uncovered -*

during this phase of the DCRDR process will be documented for review in the HED Assessment Phase of the DCRDR. __

6.0 ASSESSMENT PHASE During the assessment phase, all the identified HED's will be analyzed as to their effects on operator performance and safe plant  ;

operation. HEDs will be prioritized according to the combined .-

criteria of the likelihood of operator error and the resulting -

22 g

i e

safety consequences. For all the HED's, corrections will be recommended, and schedules of implementation will be developed based ~

on the priorities and integration with other NUREG-0707 Supplement 1 emergency response improvement actions. Figure 3 shows an overview of the assessment process for the HED's.

6.1 Enhancements & Design Modifications Many identified HED's result from minor deviations of human engineering principles and require simple corrections. E Examples of such corrections include panel labelling and swapping of like components, and component improvements to the panel controls and indicators. More specifically, enhancements .  ;

involve a number of techniques that involve surface improvements such as demarcation lines, shading and mimics.

Guidelines in selecting these HED's for correction by enhancement will be derived from the review team's own experience in addition to the background information listed in EPRI report NP-2411, " Human Engineering Guide for Enhancing = :

Nuclear Control Rooms", Deference D.

For some HED's, design modifications will be selected based on human engineering criteria and instrumentation and control specifications. These design modifications will undergo a subsequent review by the DCRDR team and GSU managment.

For selected HED's, alternative corrective actions such as the -

use of SPDS, training, or procedure modifications will be used '

in place of enhancements or design modifications.

6.2 Prioritization of HED's All the HED's identified will be analyzed and ranked as to the degree of impact on plant safety and the likelihood of .-

occurrence of such impact. The following factors constitute the basis for the prioritization of the HED's:

r

- Impact on safo plant operation resulting from the  ;

degradation of operator performance due to the HED

- Function and classification according to safety of the HED-related component / system

- The potential for human error as influenced by the HED 6.2.1 Prioritization Criteria Considering the above factors, NUREG-0801 (Reference .

E), and ths DCRDR evaluation methods developed by the BWROG (Reference F), two criteria have been -

formulated to envelop the HED's safety consequences and the likelihood of human error. The criteria are:

6.3 Corrective Actions and Schedule for Implementation-Corrective actions will be developed to 'oring the HED's into egreement with acceptable human factors guidelines or to counteract their effects. The specific corrective actions chosen may be enhancements, design modifications, improved training, revised procedures, or any combination of the above.

The review team will deselop the corrective actions.

References to be used will include NUREG-3700, EPRI NP-2411, end other human engineering guidelines. The following factors will be used in the assignment of the corrective actions:

i Priority rating Cost effectiveness Extent of correction: Enhancement vs. modification Operator performance / retraining

- Potential for creating new errors

- -Integration with other control room improvement programs:

SPDS, R.G. 1.97, E0P's, etc.

Sufficient detail regarding the corrective action will be

! developed by the DCRDR team to provide adequate guidelines for its subsequent implementation action.

6.3.1 Schedule for Implementation A schedule for implementation of HEDs will be developed based on the category assigned, additional engineering study requirements, implementation complexity, and plant scheduling constrain,ts.

Following the submittal of the DCRDR summary report, any. change in schedule of implementation and the reasons for the change will be submitted to the NRC as a supplement to the summary report.

6.3.2 Verification of Design Improvements The modified main control room instrumentation and controls design will be evaluated to assure that the selected design'improvaments, bot h individually and collectively, adequately correct .0.eir respective discrepancies and do not create other safety problems. The verification will be accomplished by performing the following:

In response to a post-TMI NRC requirement, your utility, along with other BWR owners, is conducting an updated control room review to identify and correct design dificiencies in the operator-control room interface to minimize the potential for human error. This review is performed by a survey team, composed of utility representatives and human factor specialists from General Physics Corporation, using checklists prepared by the Control Room Improvements Subgroup of the BWR Owners Group.

You are asked to complete the attached questionaire basing your responses on your operational experience and knowledge of your control room and interfacing systems. You may complete this questionaire in the control room if you desire, but please do so without discussing your detailed responses with other operators completing this survey. If additional space is needed, the attached Comment Form is to be used.

Following completion, a survey team representative will review your responses with you. Upon completion of all interviews, the survey team will consolidate the information obtained and apply it in their evaluation of your control room for compliance with human factor engineering principles.

The biographical information requested above will be used in compiling statistics on operating personnel physical characteristics. Current recommendations for panel design are Essed largely on data obtained f run measurements of military personnel; tbere are few statistics presently available as, for example, the average 1.aight and weight of operators.

This survey provides you with a valuabie' opportunity for applying your knowledge and experience toward improving operating condi+4a..s in both your control room and future control room, designs. Your honest and forthright opinions are not only welcomed', but needed.

  • Because of the construction status of the River Bend Station, you may substitute your experience on the River Bend Simulator for the plant control room experiences.
