CALVERT CLIFFS INSTRUCTION 310 EMERGENCY OPERATING PROCEDURE WRITER'S GUIDE ATTACHMENTS: (1) Page Format (2) Cover Sheet (3) Verb List (ff ) Acceptable Acronyms (5) EOP Deviation Sheet (6) List of Effective Pages I. INTRODUCTION The purpose of this instruction is to provide administrative guidance on the preparation and control of Emergency Operating Procedures (EOP's). EOP's are procedures that direct operator actions necessary to mitigate the consequences of transients and emergencies that cause plant parameters to exceed Reactor Protective System (RPS) setpoints or Engineered Safety Feature Actuation System (ESFAS) setpoints.

The procedures are designed to allow the operator to place and maintain the plant in a stable condition following a reactor trip by requiring:

A. An immediate assessment of critical safety functions; B. The performance of immediate actions to restere these safety functions within satisfactory bounds; C. An approach to event analysis; and D. The use of an event-based procedure if diagnosis is successful or, failing event diagnosis, the use of a symptom-based functional recovery procedure that does not require knowledge of the specific event.

This instruction is to be used in conjunction with the EOP Verification / Validation  ;

Plan and the EOP Training Plan to ensure technical correctness and operational i i

l l

CCI-310 Page 2 validity of EOP revisions and to provide for adequate operator familiarity prior to implementation of EOP revisions.

II. GENERAL REQUIREMENTS The following requirements shall be incorporated within the Emergency Operating Procedures.

A. The Combustion Engineering (CE) generic emergency procedures guidelines (CEN152) shall be used as the basis for EOP development. Additional information (FSAR, Technical Specifications, old EOPs, Architect / Engineer Technical Documentation, etc.) will be incorporated and/or referenced as appropriate.

B. Deviations from the generic emergency procedures guidelines shall be documented. This documentation, as a minimum, shall involve a description of the deviation and appropriate justification.

C. Future revisions or supplements to the generic emergency procedure guidelines shall be incorporated as appropriate into the new EOPs in accordance with General Requirements A and B, above.

D. Human factors considerations will be incorporated in the presentation of technical details for the purpose of optimizing operator performance.

E. Emergency Operating Procedure verification and validation shall be consistent with methods provided in the " Emergency Operating Procedures Verification Guidelines," INPO 83-004 of March 1983 and " Emergency Operating Procedure Validation Guidelines,"INPO 83-006 of July 1983.

F. A functional recovery procedure capable of establishing safety function l restoration requirements during multiple equipment failures, unidentified l

l accidents, or situations where an inappropriate event oriented procedure has l been applied shall be provided within the EOP system.

CCI-310 Page 3 G. EOPs shall ensure safety functions are monitored periodically. If event i

oriented procedures are in use, safety function monitoring will be performed  !

concut rently.

III. INTEGRATION OF TECHNICAL INFORMATION A. Generic Emergency Procedure Guidelines (EPGs) prepared and validated by Combustion Engineering will be used as the basis for EOP development. These technical guidelines perform the following functions:

1. Identify the equipment or systems to be operated,
2. List the steps r.ecessary to mitigate the consequences of transients and accidents, and
3. Restorc the safety functions.

They represent the translation of engineering data derived from transient and accident analysis into a sound engineering basis for the development of EOPs.

B. The EPGs will be implemented via the process described in section IV of this procedure. Information from plant docum.ents, internal operating experience, industry operating experience, improved or new safety analysis calculations, as well as, revisions to the original EPGs shall be included where appropriate as an improvement in existing procedures or as an improvement in the basis for actions already required.

IV. TRANSLATION OF EMERGENCY GUIDELINES TO PLANT SPECIFIC EMERGENCY OPERATING PROCEDURES A. The following areas will be addressed ingenerating the Calvert Cliffs plant specific Emergency Operating Procedures:

1. Scope
2. Initial Indication
3. Precautions l

i L

CCI-310 Page 4 1 l

4. Immediate Actions
5. Recovery Actions
6. Discussion Section 4

l B. The source material described in Attachment (7) will be used to establish plant specific entry conditions and exit conditions (where appropriate) for each procedure. In addition, the source material will be used to classify the event with particular reference to initiating event and location (i.e., within or outside containment). Next, this plant specific information will be compared with the scope and initial conditions of the generic procedure to ensure a common starting point. Any discontinuities or deviations from the generic guidelines will be formally documented and resolved using bases or source documentation. It is possible that a few issues may require additional engineering analysis. The substantiated deviations will then be incorporated into the plant specific procedures. From the foregoing review the entry conditions for each Emergency Operating Procedure will be determined.

Support or bases documentation appropriate to the " SCOPE" section will form part of the discussion section of the procedure.

C. The INITIAL INDICATION ccntained in CEN 152 will be verified against plant specific indication and a !ist will be prepared using a combination of expert judgement and source documentation for inclusion in the EOP. This includ,ed list of initial indications will be limited to the most important and reliable l parameters. However, a comprehensive list of initial indications will be contained in the discussion section. The generic list of initial indications will be reviewed and modified to include plant specific indications, alarms and equipment responses using source documentation to compile the list. The comprehensive listing of initial indications contained in the discussion section will be divided into groups according to safety function.

1 r . . -. __ ~ . . - -

CCI-310 Page 5 D. The generic guidelines will be reviewed to identify safety issues which, in turn, will be organized per Section Vill.B.4 of this instruction. General Precautions will be contained in the discussion section of each EOP together with an explanation of why the precaution exists. Specific PRECAUTIONS will be contained in the body of the EOP although an explanation of their basis will appear in the appropriate discussion section. Cautions relating to specific actions or the operation of specific equipment or components will appear immediately prior to the action to which they refer. The identification of plant specific safety concerns will be accomplished by review of the source material. Equipment and personnel safety concerns both nuclear and non-nuclear will be included in this process.

E. The IMMEDIATE ACTIONS of each EOP will be determined by the event definition which identifies the safety functions at greatest risk. Having identified the critical safety functions, the list will be prioritized and, in turn, the specific success criteria required to assess each safety function will be identified and documented. This work becomes a " Safety Function Status Check" which will then be compared against the plant specific accident analysis and specific issue limitations (for example, PTS, Natural Circulation). Deviations will be documented and resolved. This plant specific status check provides the operator directives to enter or exit the Functional Recovery Procedure. The Safety Function check whether initial, intermediate or final determines how the operator will deal with the incident.

F. Plant specific RECOVERY ACTIONS will be obtained by prioritizing the success paths provided in the generic guidelines in accordance with the previously accomplished Safety Functions prioritization. For each principal success path identified, the associated alternate and extraordinary success paths, where available, will be identified using source material all bracketed 4

Page 6 data contained in the Emergency Guidelines will be replaced by plant specific data. The safety function checks together with the specific plant configurations expected to exist, will be identified and compared to ensure the correctness of detailed operator actions. The SAFETY FUNCTION STATUS CHECKS" will be developed as described in Section E above.

G. The DISCUSSION section of the EOP willinclude a comprehensive list of initial indication ordered to have a direct correspondence to the safety functions to which they refer. Following a brief description of the development of the incident an explanation of the event recovery strategy will be provided. The recovery strategy will be directly linked to the safety function approach and will be driven by the priority and importance of the approriate safety functions. Finally, general precautions to be exercised during the casualty will be listed and their general philosophy explained. This information will be derived via the processes described above and is the documentation of the generic to plant specific translation process.

V. EOP SUPPORT DOCUMENTATION Support documentation for the Emergency Operating Procedures (EOP) consists of the EOP guidelines, deviation sheets, special calculctions, and any referenced technicalliterature which is used by the EOP writer during initial writing cr subsequent revisions of the procedures. This material will be maintained by the Operations unit.

Superseded support documentation will be removed from the active file and placed in the EOP history file. Thc history file will be maintained by the Operations unit and as a minimum, will consist of:

a. one copy of each superseded revision,
b. superseded Emergency Procedure Guidelines, i

t }

CCI-310 Page 7

c. deviation sheets,
d. superseded calculations, and
e. Calvert Cliffs Operating Manual change reports (Attachment (1) of CCI-300) af ter the changes are incorporated by revisions.

Records will be controlled in accordance with CCI-304.

VI. CONTROL OF EOPs EOPs will be controlled in accordance with CCI-300. This CCI includes instructions for the "use of procedures," " changes and revisions," " location," and " periodic review."

VII. EOP SYSTEM STRUCTURE The EOP System will consist of one function oriented procedure and selected event oriented procedures.

A. Function Oriented Procedure The function oriented procedure entitled " FUNCTIONAL RECOVERY PROCEDURE" will be used when a plant condition causing a reactor trip cannot be quickly or easily diagnosed by the operator. It may also be used to mitigate accident symptoms for which the operator has initially selected an inappropriate event oriented procedure that does not adequately recover the plant as anticipated.

The " FUNCTIONAL RECOVERY PROCEDURE" will include recovery actions for restoring each of the following safety functions:

1) Reactivity Control 5) Containment Environment
2) Pressure / Inventory Control a) Containment Gas Control
3) Vital Auxiliaries b) Containment Pressure
4) RCS and Core Heat Removal c) Containment Temperature I

CCI-310 Page 8

6) Containment Isolation
7) Radioactivity Control These safety functions form the set of parameters which, if maintained within acceptable ranges, assure plant and public safety. A " SAFETY FUNCTION STATUS CHECK" is the entry point for the " FUNCTIONAL RECOVERY PROCEDURE" and will provide acceptable values for each safety function and a method for detecting out of specification safety functions. The procedure itself will provide multiple recovery actions to restore these functions.

B. Event Oriented Procedures Event oriented procedures will be designed to optimize accident recovery when an accurate diagnosis can be made, and when the initial assumptions used in procedure development are valid (i.e., no severe multiple failures or multiple accident scenerios). The following classes of events will be covered in these procedures.

1) Reactor Trip 4) Steam Line Break
2) Loss of Forced Circulation 5) Loss of Coolant Accident

, 3) Loss of Feedwater 6) Steam Generator Tube Rupture The entry point for these procedures will be via EOP 1, " REACTOR TRIP."

EOP 1 will verify the reactor is shutdown if a trip condition exists, will verify

automatic post trip actions occur, and will verify the safety functions meet i

the acceptance criteria of a "PO3T TRIP SAFETY FUNCTION STATUS J

CHECK." The safety function criteria in this check will be chosen to be consistent with the plant conditions which prevail only in the short term after a simple and uncomplicated reactor trip. Thus,if there are other failures which require attention, the criteria in the status check will not be satisfied, signaling that more than a simple reactor trip has occurred. These initial actions will form the immediate actions for EOP system.

CCI-310 Pag? 9 If the event symptoms can be diagnosed after the reactor trip actions are completed, the operator will implement the recovery actions from the appropriate event oriented procedure. One of the first of these recovery actions will be to assess the safety functions against specific criteria contained in an event specific " Safety Function Status Check." This check is to verify that all relevant safety functions are being fulfilled as anticipated by engineering analysis and to check on diagnostic accuracy. As such, it provides summarized statement of PLANT SAFETY existing at the time of the status check.

One essential feature of the event oriented procedure is the provision for verifying that operator actions are restoring proper plant conditions and that the safety functions are being handled in the proper priority. This feedback on procedural effectiveness will be accomplished by periodic monitoring of the safety functions using the event specific " Safety Function Status Checks." If the treatment in use is adequately controlling the event, then the treatment is continued. If the treatment is inadequate, either because new information appears that is not covered in the procedure, or because the observed symptoms are not properly responding, then a transfer is made to a more appropriate treatment. In most cases, this mo. e appropriate treatment will be the " FUNCTIONAL RECOVERY PROCEDURE." In this way the EOP system is designed to manage multiple, significant failures, or misdiagnosed or undiagnosed events. Attachment (6) summarizes in flow path form these relationships.

VIII. OPTIMIZATION OF OPERATOR ?ERFORMANCE The objective of this section is to ensure the information contained in the EOP's is presented in a format and style that facilitates speed of reading and comprehension.

CCI-310 Page 10 These requirements incorporate human factor concerns and should be used during the initial draf ting process and as a checklist for subsequent revisions. Changes to the EOPs should be consistent with these writing guidelines. Attachments (1) through (5) provide examples of the material discussed below.

(1) List the setpoint (2) Request operator verification of actuation signal (3) Instruct the operator to manually initiate automatic system response on failure of the actuation.

f. When system response dictates the speed of operator action, the limits or the time frame should be specified.
g. Instructions should be written in concise, numbered steps.
h. Cautions or notes may appear within the body of the procedure while background information should appear in the DISSUSSION section or in the basis documentation section of Attachment (5).

b. Options represent available and prioritized alteratives for mitigating specific plant aborations.

l l

.. l CCI-310 Page 14

3. Logic Terms j
a. Logic terms such as AND, OR, IF, NOT, WHEN and THEN are used to describe a set of conditions or sequence of actions. Whenever these logic terms are used, all letters of the logic terms shall be capitalized and underlined.
b. The use of AND or OR within the same action should be avoided.
c. The word AND should be used to join a combination of two conditions only,
d. The word OR should be used when calling attention to alternative combinatiens of conditions. Unless specified otherwise, the word OR will be used in the inclusive sense (i.e., "A" or "B" or both).
e. When action steps are contingent upon certain conditions or combinations of conditions, the step should begin with the words E or WilEN 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.
f. Avoid the use of double negative wording.

poor example: IF loss of component cooling NOT verified THEN return to EOP-XX.

good example: Ecomponent cooling operability is verified THEN return to EOP-XX.

l g. The following examples illustrate proper use and formatting of the I

above guidelines.

(1) Ordering of information: IF the feedwater header breaks, l

l l

CCl-310 Page 15 THEN shut the main feedwater isolation valves (HS-1 and HS-12)

(2) Listing conditionals: IF any of the following parameters are abnormally high or increasing:

- containment pressure

- containment radiation

- containment sump t

levels THEN verify PORV's are shut (3) Use of the word WHEN: WHEN pressurizer level reaches XXX inch, THEN stop charging Pump

4. Precautions and Cautions
a. General precautions describe Generic Safety issues applicable to all types of transients, or they provide additional information concerning the specific precautions contained in each procedure.

These precautions where appropriate will appear in the discussion section of each procedure.

b. Specific precautions describe safety issues relevant to a particular procedure. In some cases these precautions may be generalized forms of Cautions contained within the body of the procedure.

i I

0, CCI-310 Page 16 These precautions will be listed in the PRECAUTIONS section preceding the IMMEDIATE ACTIONS.

c. Cautions describe safety issues relevant to a particular step within a procedure. These issues should ir.clude such areas as potential Technical Specification Violations, Inadvertent Safety System Actuation, restriction on the use of plant systems, and actions or situations which could result in injury or equipment damage.

Cautions should be inserted prior to the applicable step in the EOP and should not be split between pages. Cautions shall not instruct the operator to perform an action.

5. Notes
a. Notes shall only be used to denote essential additional information, which would be of benefit to operators during the procedure implementation,
b. Notes shall not instruct the operator to perform any action.
c. Notes should be inserted prior to the applicable step.
6. Branching to Other Procedures or Steps When the term " referencing" is used in connection with another procedure, it implies that the referenced procedure will be used as a supplement to the procedure presently being used. This process should be minimized because it can require excessive movement between procedures and/or rimultaneous application of several procedures.

When the ter n branching is used in connection with another procedure, it signifies that the procedure being used is to be exited and the new I

procedure or a major subsection of the procedure is to be used in its entirety. Branching is an acceptable method of entering another l

l l

CCI-310 Page 17 procedure and minimizes most of the problems associated with ,

I referencing.

The following guidelines should be used:

a. Referencing other procedures or operating instructions should be considered when more than six steps must be accomplished.
b. In referencing other procedures, the operator should be instructed to "GO TO " with the applicable procedure and step number inserted. If referencing instructions to perform a task, the operator should be instructed to " PERFORM THE (task) IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION of_ .

These phrases should be capitalized to act as a marker for returning from the referenced procedure.

c. Branching to other procedures or operating instructions should be used when a complete procedure or independent section of a
procedure supercedes the procedure currently in use. Once exited, the original procedure must be reentered from its beginning. Such a phenomena is expected if an incorrect accident diagnosis is made and the operator must return to the Functional Recovery Procedure.
7. Component Identification
a. Equipment, controls, and displays should be identified in common usage terms. These terms may not always match engraved names on panels but will be complete.
b. Valve designations, as listed in the Operating Instructions' valve list, should be used to identify valves.

CCI-310 Page 18 I

c. When the engraved names and numbers on panel placards and alarm windows are specifically referred to in the procedure, the engraving should be quoted verbatim.
d. The number should precede the noun name when identifying pumps or valves. (Example: 22 AFW pump,11 MSIV)
e. Location information for components should be provided only if items are seldom used or may be difficult to locate.
8. Level of Detail
a. When valves need to be operated, the valve number (s) should be used followed by the valve name(s) in parentheses.
b. For handswitches which have standby positions, the verb " Place" should be used to denote the desired position. Positional placements are typically named REMOTE, AUTO, NORMAL, PULL-TO-LOCK. All OPEN and SHUT letters, when associated with a switch position, should be capitalized.
c. Standard practice for detecting abnormal conditions during l equipment startup or operation (vibration, flow etc.,) need not be included in EOPs.

t

9. Operator Aids
a. When information is presented using figures, charts, or tables, these aids must be self-explanatory, and legible under the expected conditions of use and within the reading precision of the operator.
b. UrJts of measure on tables, figures, and charts, should be given for numecical values that represent observed, measurement data, or calculated results. A virgule (slant line) should be used instead of "per." (Examples: ft/sec, Ib/hr) t i

.< \

j CCI-310 I Page 19 j

c. References to tables and figures, titles of tables and figures within text material, and column headings within a table should be capitalized.
d. Figures or tables referenced in the EOP text shall comprise Addendum 1 to the EOP publication and shall be accountable in the List of Effective Pages for each EOP.

1 C. Mechanics of Style

l. Hyphenation
a. Hyphens should be used in the following circumstances:

(1) In compound numerals from twenty-one to ninety-nine; example: one hundred thirty-four (2) In fractions; examples: one-half, two-thirds

(3) In compounds with "self"; examples
self-contained, self-lubricated
(4) When misleading or awkward consonants would result by joining the words; example
bell-like (5) When a letter is linked with a r.oun; examples: X-ray, O-ring, U-bolt, I-beam
b. When doubt exists, the compound word should be restructured to avoid hyphenation.

I

2. Punctuation
a. Punctuation should be used only as necessary to aid comprehension. Word order should be selected to require a l minimum of punctuation. If extensive punctuation is necessary for clarity, the sentence should be rewritten'and possibly made into several sentences.
b. Brackets will normally not be used.

l

CCI-310 Page 20

c. A cobn should be used to indicate that a list of items is to follow. ,

= .- - -

CCI-310 Page 21 device to perform its funct!on(s) are also capable of performing their related support function (s).

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

(3) 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. Numerical Values 3 a. For numbers less than unity, the decimal point should be preceded by a zero and subsequent numbers should be grouped in threes with
a single space between each group of three numbers." Example 1 0.021 323
b. The number of significant digits should be equal to the number of significant digits available from the display and the reading i precision of the operator.

j c. Acceptance values should be specified in such a way that addition j and subtraction is not required. This can generally be done by stating acceptance values as limits. Examples: 510 F maximum, 300 psig minimum,580 F to 600 F.

I d. Engineering units should always be specified for numerical values of process variables. They should be consistent with those used on 8

the control room displays; for example: psig instead of psi.

. 1 EOP-V&V Page 1 of 4 EOP VERIFICATION / VALIDATION PLAN l I. INTRODUCTION This document identifies the methods to be used by the Baltimore Gas and Electric Company,in compliance with NRC direction, for the verification and validation of Emergency Operating Procedures (EOP's) at Calvert Cliffs I and II.

II. VERIFICATION PROGRAM A. The verification program objective is to ensure written correctness and technical accuracy in each EOP. In general, the guidelines provided in the document " Emergency Operating Procedures Verification Guideline," INPO 83-004 of March 1983, will be utilized to accomplish this objective.

B. Procedure verification will occur in two distinct steps. The first step consists of an Individual Review, the second a Group Review.

Individual Review - EOP's will be draf ted by a writing group dedicated full-time to that task. Each person in the group will be assigned specific procedures for which he will have verification responsibility. In all cases the functions of writing and verification will be separated so that an independent check of each procedure is obtained in the review process. Consistency between reviews will be achieved by using a verification checklist. This checklist will be derived from the checklist provided in the INPO guideline document and the checklist from NUREG/CR 2005. The objective of the step 3

is to ensure the written correctness of each procedure.

l Group Review - The second objective of EOP verification is to ensure 4

technical accuracy. This will be accomplished by bringing the EOP writers together as a group. Within this group the technical expertise will exist to compare each new procedure against the various sourca documents (Generic l

8e EOP-V&V Page 2 of 4 Guidelines, Writer's Guide, FSAR, Technical Specifications, etc). The l functions which will be incorporated in this comparison process are as follows:

1. Ensure so single individual's bias effects the new procedure adversely.
2. Ensure the new procedure is technically consistent with the source documents.
3. Record any improvements in EOP writing methodology which should be provided as feedback to the writer's guide.
4. Complete deviation sheets for all verification findings.
5. Document any additional information concerning bases for EOP actions obtained during the verification process.

Ill. VALIDATION A. The validation program objective is to ensure the useability and operational correctness of each EOP. In general, the guidelines provided in the document

" Emergency Operating Procedures Validation Guidelines,"INPO 33-006 of July 1983, will be used to accomplish this objective.

B. The validation of Emergency Operating Procedures will be accomplished by:

1. Step-by-step walkthrough
2. Simulator performance using selected scenarios
3. Feedback from actual performance of EOP's Step-By-Step - The step-by-step walkthrough will utilize a control room operating team consisting of the minimum number of personnel allowed by Technical Specification 6.2. The observation team will utilize personnel from the writing group, training unit, and the control room. A checkoff sheet derived from the example in the INPO guideline will be used by the observation group to ensure consistency and completeness.

The lead observer duties will include direction of the scenario, asking 1

.i EOP-V&V .

Paga 3 of 4 questions, and noting problems encountered by the operating team. The other observers will note individual operator responses to each step in the procedure in addition to asking questions and noting problem areas.

The operating team will walk and talk through the procedure while I simulating the actions required by it. A control room mock-up using

, poster type pictures of the control room or the actual simulator panels i

! (if available) will be used to facilitate these actions. The operating

team will supply the following information to the observer team
a. Describe the action being taken.
b. Identify instruments and controls used.
c. Identify expected system responses and how they are verified.
d. Identify contingency actions which might be taken that aren't in t

! the procedure. ,

i

e. Identify any other procedure deficiency identified during the

( validation process.

I i

Simulator Validation - Simulator validation of the EOP's will occur during the first requalification cycle af ter the plant specific sirrulator is operational. Under current scheduling, this validation step would occur

, af ter EOP implementation. This is considered acceptable for the

following reasons
a. A walkthrough validation will be completed prior to implementation.

4

b. The Generic Guidelines were validated on the CE simulator which models the Calvert Cliffs control room. Validation on a site specific simulator is expected to provide much more cost effective information (both quantity and quality) than a replay of procedures on the CE simulator.

EOP-V&V Par,a 4 of 4

c. Delay of procedure implementation until the site specific simulator is available would cause an unjustified delay in providing better information and guidance to the operating shif ts.

Feedback From Actual Performance - To provide for continual monitoring of procedure correctness and useability, the validation checklists developed for use in the validation above will be reviewed af ter an EOP is used in an actual plant transient and af ter use in simulator exercises run during operator requalification sessions.

IV. DOCUMENTATION All comments made during the verification and validation processes will be documented on the EOP Deviation Sheet (Attachment (5), EOP Writer's Guide) and forwarded to the appropriate procedure writer for resolution. The procedure writer will determine the proper corrective action and document this response on the respective deviation sheet. All deviation sheets will become part of the EOP History File as described in the Writer's Guide.

EOP-Training Plan Page 1 of 2 EOP TRAINING PLAN

1. INTRODUCTION This document identifies the methods to be used by the Baltimore Gas and Electric Company in compliance with NRC regulation, for the training of Operations Personnel on the philosophy and use of Emergency Operating Procedures (EOP's) at Calvert Cliffs Units I and 11.

II. EOP PHILOSOPHY The objective of this portion of the training program is two fold and will incorporate as its objectives,1) an overview of the revised procedures, and

2) safety function concepts as applied to the EOP's.

A. The overview will consist of the following items:

1. Format and content level
2. Relationship of EOP's to existing plant procedures
3. Principles of Standard Post Trip Actions
4. Principles of Optional Recovery Guidelines
5. Relationship to the Functional Recovery Guidelines B. Safety function concepts portion will consist of the following items:
1. Safety Function Definitions
2. Accomplishing Safety Functions
3. Use of Safety Functions III. PROCEDURE USE Operator training associated with the revised procedures will be completed in two phases. The initial training phase will be completed in a classroom atmosphere and the second phase will be completed using the plant specific simulator.

l l

EOP-Training Plan Page 2 of 2 i

l i A. During the classroom phase, each EOP will be discussed and challenged to l i verify its correctness. Lectures presented willinclude the following areas for each event based procedure:

1. Event Introduction
2. Event Characteristics
3. Mitigation Process
4. Maintenance of Safety Functions B. The Functional Recovery Guideline willinclude,in addition, the following:
1. Use of the F nctional Recovery Guideline
2. Basic Structure of the Guideline
3. Detailed bases in terms of Safety Function Concepts C. Following the classroom training, simulator sessions will allow each operating crew to implement the procedures during simulated real-time scenarios developed to exercise all aspects of the procedures. Close observation of the crews will allow problem areas to be corrected and procedure badequacies to be identified.

D. In addition to the training described, written examinations will be administered as part of initial and requalification training programs to ensure understanding of the procedures.

IV. ONGOING TRAINING PROGRAM Future revisions to the EOPs may be expected as a result of revisions or supplements to the EPGs, revisions to plant specific design information, or improvements to existing safety analyses. Operator retraining will be performed prior to the implementation of such revisions in accordance with the general methods discussed above.
