JANUARY 1982
! J' POREWORD l
l-. This document contains performance objectives and criteria Intended for use by j the Institute of Nuclear Power Operations (INPO) in its evaluation of nuclear 7 -- power plants. The performance objectives are broad in scope. Each generally
!. covers a single, well-defined management area. 'Ihe supporting criteria are more
- j- narrow in scope and typteally describe a specifle activity that contributes to the
- . achievement of a performance objective. Several criteria are listed under each
' performance objective.
I"
- , The purpose of this document is to provide a working reference for INPO evaluators and for member utilities' use in self-evaluation. The criteria listed may not address every activity associated with the performance objective.
Therefore, meeting all the criteria does not ensure that the performance
- objective is fully met. Conversely,it is recognized that a nuclear statio's may i effectively achieve the performance objective without meeting each specific -
criteria. For these reasons, INPO's plant evaluations emphasize the performance F
i objectives rather than focusing solely on the supporting criteria.
.t . .
- - The criteria in this document are results-oriented. The methods for achieving the desired results are generally not stated. Thus, considert.ble judgment is required j'.
! in applying the criteria. INPO is developing Good Practices and Guidelines to assist member utilities in meethg the criteria and objectives. Good Practices 1
will define methods and procedares that have proven effective in meeting one or j'-
i more criteria. Guidelines wil'. define methods and procedures for meeting a per-formance objective. In some cases, Guidelines may be simply a compilation of Good Practices. Several Guidelines in the TRAINING area have already been .
... distributed to INPO members. .
e- These performance objectives and criteria' will be augmented by a set of' perform-
, i g*
ance objectives and criteria for areas related to corporate or off-site support.
The corporate or off-site support criteria are under development. -Criteria for
- i. emergency preparedness at: included in this document; however, currently, emer-OL gency preparedness is not covered fully in the plant evaluations. INPO's emergency preparedness activities are conducted primarily through observation of drills and exercises and by providing direct assistance to members through the Review and Assistance (R&A) programs.
~'
This edition, prepared after INPO completed evaluations of all operating nuclear
- stations, supersedes the preliminary edition. It is anticipated that this document will be revised as.INPO gains additional experience.
