Control Room Design Review k
Gentlemen:
Enclosed you will find 10 copies of a report entitled, " Preliminary Control Room Assessment". At a meeting with members of your Human Factors Branch on April 1, 1981, LP6L was advised to submit this report so that the staff would have a basis for addressing Task Action Plan Item I.D.1, " Control Room Design",
in the forthcomitig Safety Evalitation Report.
As part of LP&L's response to the accident at TMI-2, a preliminary control room review was performed by some of our operators and our consultants from December 20 through 31, 1980. At that time a working document was prepared.
This document was intended to serve three purpot,es:
1.
Describe the degree of control room commitment and construction status.
2.
Provide a basis for the planning of future control room human factors efforts.
3.
Identify areas where human factors enhancements will need further analysis.
The direction given to our human factors consultants and reviewers was to identify all possible discrepancies considering even the most trivial impact on operator reliability, so that appropriate planning could be conducted in the follow-up activities such as systems review.
The report includes photographic documentation of discrepencies that may be considered generic to the Waterford 3 control room. The original photographs are available for your review if you require them.

W3P81-1102 Page.2' Furthermore, subsequent to our April I meeting, three supplements have been added to the report:
Implementation of Enhancements Supplement A Supplement B - Changes already made Supplement.C - Several updated control room photographs At the time of our meeting, LP&L expressed our intent to_ submit Supplement.A on June 1, 1981 in order to support the first SER supplement.
Supplement A
. represents our commitment to address the findf_..gs identified by the prelimi-j nary review. Upon review of the findings, we have accelerated this input and added Supplement B which describes the corrective actions we have taken to date.
If you have any questions or wish to meet again and discuss our human factors efforts, please. advise. It is hoped that the enclosed report-will permit the NRC staff-to comment on the control rooms.
Yours very truly, D. L. Aswell Vice President-Power Production DLA/RWP/dde Enclosures cc:
