PHOTOGRAPHY INSTRUCTIONSPhotographs, should be taken in the actual control room include the following:a. Control room overview depicting the SPDS workspaces.b. All parts of the SPDS and their workspace locations.c. All individual SPDS display pages taken during power operations.d. The SPDS keyboard.e. Any hard-wired displays that are part of the SPDS.Simulator photographs are not recommended. A record of plant conditions at thetime the photograph is taken should be maintained. At least one of thephotographs should be taken from the location where the primary user of SPDSwould most likely be stationed during a transient. For a multi-unit plant withdifferences in SPDS design, implementation and/or location, photographs shouldreflect the differences. If modifications or changes to the SPDS are planned,current photographs are acceptable but should be noted to indicate that changesare planned. It is not necessary to provide details of the planned changes onthe photographs.The photographs should be in color, 8"x1O" in size, and labeled to include adescription of the display. Photographs should have sufficient resolution toensure that CRT and hard-wired displays are readable. In addition, thephotographs of the CRT display pages should be sufficiently detailed to allowidentification of all of the selected parameters.2/

LICENSES, AND HOLDERS OF CONSTRUCTION

PERMITS SUBJECT: TASK ACTION PLAN ITEM I.D.2 -SAFETY PARAMETER

DISPLAY SYSTEM -10 CFR §50.54(f)

-(GENERIC LETTER NO. 89-06)On October 31, 1980, the NRC staff issued NUREG-0737 which provided guidance for implementing Three Mile Island (TM1) action items. On December 17, 1982, Generic Letter No. 82-33 transmitted Supplement

1 to NUREG-0737 to all licensees and applicants to clarify the TMI action items related to Emergency Response Capability, including item I.D.2, Safety Parameter Display System.Supplement

1 extracted the fundamental requirements for emergency response capability from the wide range of regulatory documents issued on the subject.It was written at the conceptual level to allow for a high degree of flexibility in scheduling and design. In recognition of the interrelationships among the action items addressed in Supplement

1, the staff made allowance for each licensee to negotiate a reasonable, achievable schedule for implementing its emergency response capability.

However, the staff stated that because the SPDS can provide an important contribution to plant safety, it should be implemented promptly.The staff evaluated licensee/applicant implementation of the safety parameter display system (SPDS) requirements at 57 units and found that a large percentage of designs do not fulfill the requirements identified in Supplement

1 to NUREG-0737.

Enclosed with this letter is NUREG-1342 which provides to all licensees, applicants, and construction permit holders the benefit of the staff's experience to aid them in implementing SPDS requirements.

NUREG-1342 describes methods used by some licensees/applicants to implement SPDS requirements in a manner found acceptable by the staff. NUREG-1342 also documents design features that the staff found unacceptable and gives the staff's reasons for finding them unacceptable.

The information in NUREG-1342 does not constitute new requirements.

Supplement

1 to NUREG-0737 establishes the legal requirements for SPDS. These requirements can be met with a relatively simple SPDS as well as with a more elaborate system.Also enclosed is a checklist concerning SPDS implementation.

The purpose of the checklist is to provide licensees with a guide to assist them in determining the status of their SPDS with respect to NRC requirements.

8904120042

..<-2 -The checklist, when completed and used in conjunction with NUREG-1342 and photographs of the SPDS layout, will provide licensees with comprehensive information that will facilitate establishing the implementation status of their SPDS. Accordingly, pursuant to 10 CFR 50.54(f), operating reactor licensees and holders of construction permits are requested to furnish within 90 days of the date of this letter, one of the following:

1. Certification that the SPDS fully meets the requirements of NUREG-0737, Supplement

1, taking into account the information provided in NUREG-1342.

Licensees should maintain supporting documentation for three years, including the completed checklist and photographs used to establish SPDS implementation status.2. Certification that the SPDS will be modified to fully meet the requirements of NUREG-0737, Supplement

1, taking into account the information provided in NUREG-1342.

The implementation schedule for the modifications shall be provided.Licensees should maintain supporting documentation for three years, including the completed checklist and photographs used to establish SPDS implementation status.3. If a certification cannot be provided, the licensee shall provide a discussion of the reasons for that finding and a discussion of the compensatory action the licensee intends to take or has taken.Staff review has verified that the following nuclear units have a fully satisfactory SPDS: Catawba 1 and 2, Clinton, Hatch 1 and 2, McGuire 1 and 2, Millstone

3, River Bend, Susquehanna

1 and 2, and Yankee Rowe. No response is required for these units. Because of the very recent full power license reviews conducted for these units, South Texas Project 2 and Vogtle 2 will not be required to respond to this generic letter. Big Rock Point will not be required to respond to this generic letter because of the staff's ongoing review of their proposal for SPDS.This request is covered by Office of Management and Budget Clearance Number 3150-0011 which expires December 31, 1989. The estimated average burden hours is 25 person hours per owner response, including searching data sources, gathering and analyzing the data, and preparing the required letters. These estimated average burden hours pertain only to these identified response-related matters and do not include the time for actual implementation of the requested actions. Comieints on the accuracy-of this estimate and suggestions to reduce the burden may be directed to the Paperwork Reduction Project (3150-0011), Office of Management and Budget, Washington, D.C. 20503, and to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Records and Reports Management Branch, Division of Information Support Sources, Office of Information Resources Management, Washington, D.C. 20555.

2 LICENSEE CHECKLIST FOR SAFETY PARAMETER

DISPLAY SYSTEM STATUS

PURPOSE

The purpose of this checklist is to provide all licensees with a guide that will facilitate a comprehensive and consistent means for determining status of their safety parameter display system (SPDS) implementation.

ORGANIZATION

AND FORMAT INSTRUCTIONS

Each licensee should maintain supporting documentation including the completed checklist and any photographs used to determine safety parameter display system implementation status. Recommended photography instructions are on the next page. With regard to format, each licensee should use the enclosed checklist to document the SPDS implementation information.

If more space is needed, simply add pages to the applicable checklist section. For multi-unit plants, if the SPDS' are not identical in design, implementation and/or location across units, all differences should then be reflected appropriately in the checklist.

If you have any questions about this checklist contact Richard J. Eckenrode, Section Chief of the Human Factors Engineering Section, Human Factors Assessment Branch, at (301) 492-1105.

PHOTOGRAPHY

INSTRUCTIONS

Photographs, should be taken in the actual control room include the following:

a. Control room overview depicting the SPDS workspaces.

b. All parts of the SPDS and their workspace locations.

c. All individual SPDS display pages taken during power operations.

d. The SPDS keyboard.e. Any hard-wired displays that are part of the SPDS.Simulator photographs are not recommended.

A record of plant conditions at the time the photograph is taken should be maintained.

At least one of the photographs should be taken from the location where the primary user of SPDS would most likely be stationed during a transient.

For a multi-unit plant with differences in SPDS design, implementation and/or location, photographs should reflect the differences.

If modifications or changes to the SPDS are planned, current photographs are acceptable but should be noted to indicate that changes are planned. It is not necessary to provide details of the planned changes on the photographs.

The photographs should be in color, 8"x1O" in size, and labeled to include a description of the display. Photographs should have sufficient resolution to ensure that CRT and hard-wired displays are readable.

In addition, the photographs of the CRT display pages should be sufficiently detailed to allow identification of all of the selected parameters.
