1.2 Review Procedures This section presents, in general terms, the review procedures employed.In Section 2.0, Findings, detailed descriptions of the procedures employed, and results of each, are presented. 1.2.1 Phase 2-Control Room Review The Control Room Review phase was subdivided into six subtasks as follows: o Review of Operating Experience o Assemble Control Room Documentation o Review of System Functions and Task Analysis o Control Room Surveys o Verify Task Performance Capability o Validate Control Room Functions. 1.2.1.1 Review of Operating Experience -This task was composed of two subtasks: 1)conduct of operator interviews, and 2)review of plant operational experience through Licensee Event Reports, technical specification modifications, etc.This review task was conducted in accordance with the guidelines of NUREG-0700 published September 1981.1.2.1.2 Assemble Control Room Documentation -In this task, a control room data base was established to support subsequent evaluation. A library was established with control room related documentation (technical specifications, drawings, etc.), control room components were photo-documented, and a 1/3 scale photomosaic was constructed. The library and photo-documentation were centrally located to support the effort.In addition to the library and photographic documentation; a control room inventory of components was developed, identifying for each component, its location, system relation-ships, functions, and characteristics. Inventory data has been filed for subsequent use.1.2.1.3 Conduct Control Room Surveys-Much of the detailed assessment of the control room was conducted via surveys.Surveys required the collection of data using preconstructed checklists and interview forms, and the taking of direct measurements of control room parameters such as noise levels, light levels, etc.The survey criteria are presented in Appendix A.For each survey, a draf t report (summarizing Human Engineering Discrepancies) was prepared for subsequent inclusion into the present final report.The surveys conducted were: o Noise-direct measurements of noise levels were taken and com-pared to individual checklists items. 4 7 p I~I}I I r o Lighting-measurements were taken under various conditions (e.g., nor mal and emergency lighting)and compared to individual. NUREG-0700 items.o Control Room Environment -assessments were made by direct measurement of the parameters listed below and by comparison to the data in the NUREG-0700 guidelines. temperature humidi ty ventilation workspace arrangement document organization, use, and storage control room access o Design Conventions -evaluations by survey for the conventions listed below.The data was subsequently compared to NUREG-0700 guidelines. coding methods (color, shape, pattern, etc.)standardization of abbreviations and acronyms-, consistency of control use consistency of display movement or indication o Controls-checklist evaluation of controls.o Displays-checklist evaluation of displays.o Computers-checklist evaluation of computer systems.o Emergency Garments-data were collected by walk-throughs, use of emergency garments, speech intelligibility analysis, and checklist application. o Labeling-checklist evaluation of labels.o Annunciators -checklist evaluation of annunciator systems;, direct measurement of annunciator fonts, signal intensities, etc.o Anthropometrics -analysis of reach and visual access to control room components given physical configuration of boards, panels, layout, etc.The data was subsequently compared to checklist item requirements. o Force/Torque -where indicated by operator observation, force/torque information for control types were collected for comparison to checklist items.o Communications -checklist evaluation of communications systems;speech intelligibility analysis of communications modes o Maintainability -checklist and questionnaire data concerning operator-maintained components (trend recorders, bulbs, etc.).1.2.1.4 Review of System Functions and Task Analysis (SFTA)-System functions and tasks were identified and evaluated in this task.A 4-step procedure was employed: o Identification of systems and subsystems by review of plant documen-tation ~~1 o Identification of event sequences to undergo Task Analysis.These were identified using: NUREGs-0737,-0660, and-0700 results of Operating Experience Review o Identification of system/subsystem functions through document review and operator interviews o Identification and analysis of control room operational tasks.Task Analysis data served as an input to the verification of task performance capability and to the validation of control room functions (see paragraphs 1.2.1.5 and 1.2.1.6).The results/products of this task were: o Response Selection Diagrams o Task analysis of functional sequences o Task analysis of event sequences o Spatial-Operational Sequence Diagrams of task sequences o Traffic Pattern Diagrams.1.2.1.5 Verify Task Performance Capability -This evaluation task involved two subtasks: 1)verification of instrument/control availability, and 2)verification of human engineering suitability. The first, verification of availability, was conducted using the Task Analysis and Control Room Inventory. In general, tasks associated with control room functions were examined in terms of appropriate instrumentation in the control room (i.e., task equipment demands vs.actual equipment present in the control room).Estimates of the frequency-of-use for all instrumentation were then generated based on the set of procedures examined.C Estimations of nonprocedurally-bound operations (e.g., boration, etc.)were gene-rated via operator interviews. Also task sequences required in selected event sequences were estimated as to frequency of occurrence in the event sequences. Comparing both frequency and requirements data to the inventory, identification was made of: 1)the absence (in'the control room)of task-required information or control, 2)the estimated frequency with which the information or control is required, and 3)the conditions (events, procedures, etc.)under which the information or control is required.The second subtask, verification of human engineering suitability, involved using Spatial-Operational Sequence Diagrams, Traffic Pattern Diagrams, identified functional groups, and checklists to evaluate human engineering suitability in terms of sequence of component use, control/display proximity, and so forth.NUREG-0700 guidelines served as the principal source document for evaluation criteria.
1.2.1.6 Validate Control Room Functions-This task involved analysis of workload and distribution of workload for operators performing specific task and event sequences. Also overall control room traffic,was analyzed.The means of the analysis were task timelines and traffic analysis.' a~ 1D Documentation and Document Control Three types of documentation were addressed: 1)reference documentation, 2)process and Human Engineering Discrepancy documentation, and 3)Detailed Control., Room Design Review output findings and reports.1.3.1 Reference Documentation I A program library was established with reference documents to support the Detailed Control Room Design Review tasks.It contains: Licensee Event Reports Outage Analysis Reports Final Safety Analysis Reports Technical specifications and system descriptions Piping and Instrumentation Diagrams Floor plans Panel drawings and photographs Software descriptions Procedures Samples of computer printouts Various Nuclear Regulatory Commission and industry documents bearing on control room design (i.e., NUREGs-0700 and-0660, IEEE specifications and standards, human factors engineering texts, etc.).As required, control room this documentation was referenced to support specific tasks within the evaluations. 1.3.2 Process Documentation Data collection and.reduction methods were documented for reporting purposes.The general flow of information management is presented in Figure 1-2.Task plans served as the basic process documentation. '1.3D Guideline Human Engineering Discrepancy Documentation Data files for each Human Engineering Discrepancy were generated. For each task requiring a report, file space was reserved for that report.Human Engineering Discrepancy information was stored in a computer file which contained the following information: o Guideline number 8 0~~I l v.w=I 11%0 w~I N 1'I~y t~<~.

I I I~1~'4 r~~pl 1.5 Assessment and Implementation Once a Human Engineering Discrepancy was identified, its disposition had to be determined. This section of the summary report: 1)describes the means whereby Human Engineering Discrepancies were assessed for error-inducing potential and.system conse-quences of induced errors, arid 2)details the means by which Human Engineering Discrepancies will be disposed of (redesign, additional 3ob Performance Aids, etc.)The assessment portion, in essence, determines the scheduling of backfits as a function of the potential consequences of the Human Engineering Discrepancy. The disposition portion determines the means by which a Human Engineering Discrepancy will be ameliorated. Assessment is initially divorced from disposition in terms of selection of backfits;however, Human Engineering Discrepancy disposition may, in some instances, drive scheduling of backfits due to availability of materials, extent of engineering redesign, and so forth.Also candidate backfits undergo assessment to ensure that human engineering discrepancies have been adequately addressed. 1.5.1 Assessment The basic assessment process is divided into four steps, as follows: o Assess extent of deviation from NUREG-0700 guidelines o Assess Human Engineering Discrepancy impact on error occurrence o Assess potential consequences of error occurrence o Assign Human Engineering Discrepancy scheduling priority.A Human Engineering Discrepancy Assessment Form an'd a Logic Diagram are presented in Figure 1-5.1.5.1.1 Assess Extent of Deviation from NUREG-0700 Guidelines -This step required that a subjective assessment of the extent of discrepancy from NUREG-0700 guidelines be made with regard to the control room.For example, symbol/background contrast might be 40 percent rather than 50 percent, or only small amounts of parallax may exist in a display.A judgement was made based on the content of the guideline being applied and the control room component under assessment. Extent of deviation was subjectively scaled from"1" (some deviation) to"5" (complete deviation). There was also a catagory N/A (not applicable) for Human Engineering Discrepancies which are not described in NUREG-0700 (discrepancies from other documents such as military standards, human factors engineering texts, etc).Extent of deviation judgements are not used directly to assess priority or scheduling of backfits, but relate to assessment of 0 15 ~'l g L (C r operational error potentials. It is possible to have little deviation from the guidelines and high error assessments, and vise versa.1.5.1.2 Assess Human Engineering Discrepancy Impact on Error Occurrence-Given that no control system can be designed to be operationally error-free, the assessment here was to estimate Human Engineering Discrepancy impact on hypothetical (unknown)baseline error rates of control room components; e.g., will additional errors be induced by discrepancies from the guide'lines? Estimates of Human Engineering Discrep-ancy impact on error occurrence were qualitatively arrived at by consideration of the following: o Body physiology fatigue/physical stress discomfort injury anthropometry o Sensory/perceptual performance VISIon audition proprioception touch o Information processing overload confusion recall pattern matching/recognition data manipulation (comparing, extrapolating, etc.)o Learning inhibition habituation response predominance transfer response competition response latency o Task demands frequency duration competition sequence speed communication precision information. 1.5.1D Assess Potential Consequences of Error Occurrence -Review team, tech-nical staff, and operations representatives evaluated system consequences of hypothesized operational errors.Four determinations are required: 16 o Does the Human Engineering Discrepancy relate to plant safety functions? o Does the Human Engineering Discrepancy relate to plant functions required to mitigate the consequences of an accident?o Could an error lead to unsafe operations or plant conditions? o Could an error lead to violations of technical specifications? Each of these requires a yes/no type response.The Logic Diagram on Figure 1-5 (Human Engineering Discrepancy Priorit@shows how these data are integrated to assign categories and priorities to Human Engineering Discrepancies. Category I Human Engineering Discrepancies are those which have been noted from documented operational errors.All Category I Human Engineering Discrepancies are deemed to increase error potential, but consequences must still be assigned to determine ultimate scheduling priority.Category II Human Engineering Discrepancies are those discrepancies noted during field surveys and/or operator interviews which have been determined to be of valid concern and require corrective action, but for which no documented cases of operator error were found during the Review of Operating Experience. Category III Human Engineering Discrepancies are those discrepancies noted by field surveys and/or operator interviews which have been determined to have little or no impact on operator performance, and for which no documented cases of operator error were found during the Review of Operating Experience. Assessment of error occurrence was estimated for the following: o Overall operator performance is/is not degraded by the Human Engineering Discrepancy impact on body physiology? o The Human Engineering Discrepancy does/does not degrade sensory perf ormance?o Information processing capability is/is not exceeded via the Human Engineering Discrepancy? o The Human Engineering Discrepancy does/does not induce direct error due to principles of learning?o Task difficulty and reliability is/is not affected by the Human Engineering Discrepancy? Based on the above, a subjective error assessment was generated on a 5-point scale;"1" indicating a low probability of induced errors is expected as a result of the Human Engineering Discrepancy, and"5" indicating a high probability of additional errors being induced.17 FIGURE'I.5'ED ASSESSMENT FORM 1.EXTENT OF DEVIATION FROM 0700 GUIDELINES 1 2 g~MP~4 5 2.ERROR ASSESSMENT N/A~W 1 2 2 i 5 2.SAFETY FUNCT)ON NO 4.NON SAFETY RELATED, REOUIREO TO MITIGATE CONSEOUKNCES OF AN ACCIDENT YES S.CONSEOUENCES OF ERROR OCCURENCE A.UNSAFE OPERATION YES NO 5.VIOLATION OF TECH.SPECS.YES NO 1.DEV$0'?NO FILE HED YES 2.ERROR NO ASSESSMENT st CATEGORY III HED TA YES TA t CATEGORY II C HED TECH SPEC VIOLATED OR UNSAFE OPERATION'2 YES CATEGORY II A YES 5, SAFETY NO FUNCTION OR 08JECTIVE? 18 TECH SPEC VIOLATED OR CATEGORY II C UNSAFE HED OPERATION?

Section 2.2 presents findings for the Operating Experience Review.Sect'ion 2.3 presents findings and results of the Control Room Surveys.Finally, Section 2.4 discusses the System Functions and Task Analysis findings.Where applicable, all Human Engineering Discrepancies identified via the evaluation processes are presented. 2.1 Equipment Inventory 2.1.1 Objective The objective of the Equipment Inventory was to identify and reference all instrumentation controls and equipment within the control room for: 1)assessment of task equipment demands, 2)Component Level Human Engineering Discrepancy documen-tation, and 3)priority assessment. The inventory included all components and major assemblies with which operators interface in the control rooms.2.1.2 Review Team Responsibilities A human factors specialist with control room operating experience assembled the Equipment Inventory using the form presented in Figure 1-4.(One form was completed for each component or major assembly). 2.1 3 Criteria Criteria for this task included: o The inventory should include all controls, displays and other com-ponents on the control boards, peripheral consoles, back panels, etc.-that is, the components with which operators interface at all work stations.(NUREG-0700, p.3-19).o Each component should have a unique identifier (NUREG-0700, p.3-20).1 o The inventory should identify the system, subsystem, function/sub-function, purpose, and characteristics (range for scaled displays, colors for indicator lights, and position labels for controls)for each component (NUREG-0700, p.3-19).20 ~II'1 2.1.4 Task Definition A photomosaic of the control room was used as the basis for most of the inventory work.Because the panels are long, they were divided into sections for the purpose of assigning alphanumeric identifiers. The console consisted of the following sections (from left to right facing the console): Coolant Volume Control System, Reactor Control, Steam Flow/Feed Flow, and Electrical. The back panel was divided into the Reactor Coolant System;Reactor, Steam Generator and Reactor Trip;Condensate, Feedwater and Turbine-Generator; and Electrical. The Safeguard Panel was divided into four sections and numbered 1 through 4, from left to right.Each component was assigned a unique alphanumeric code.All components sharing a single label were given the same code.One Component Level Human Engineering Discrepancy Report (component sheet)was completed for each unique alphanumeric code.Information not available from the photomosaic was collected on-site.Components were divided into subsystems within each panel by a human factors specialist with control room operating experience, and this information was included on the component sheet.The bottom half of the component sheet includes a list of Human Engineering Discrepancies noted for each component. The Human Engineering Discrepancy number shown refers to the NUREG-0700 guideline which was violated by the component. Although the control room Equipment Inventory was intended for use in Task Analysis, the references to Human Engineering Discrepancy numbers on the component sheets also provide Florida Power Bc Light with a list of Human Engineering Discrepancies associated with each component. The component sheets are filed by unit, by panel, by component type within each panel, and finally by location code within component type.The control room Equipment Inventory was completed Duly 1983 after the majoarity of data collection was completed. A 2.1.5 Outputs and Results The output of this task is a filing system containing a data form for each component in the control room.The form contains information describing the component and a list of associated Human Engineering Discrepancies. The Human Engineering Discrepancy number references NUREG-0700 guidelines and the appropriate Human Engineering Discrepancy. 21 2.2 Operator Interviews/Operating Experience Reviews 2.2.l Objective Interviews were conducted with operating personnel in order to obtain information on control room design and operability from users of the system.Questions were intended to gather information on workspace design and panel layout, environmental features, alarm and warning systems, computer systems, communications, procedures, maintenance, and staffing and training.Potential discrepanices as well as positive human factors engineering features were identified. 2.2.2 Review Team Responsibilities Interviews were'conducted by a human factors analyst experienced in interview techniques. The human factors analyst was responsible for briefing each interviewee regarding the purpose and general content of the questionnaire, and for recording responses appropriately on the interview forms.Briefings and interviews both were conducted individually. Operations personnel participating in the interviews included a majority of the reactor operators, senior reactor operators, watch engineers (shift technical advisors), and shif t supervisors. 2.2.3 Criteria The specific items presented during the interviews are presented in Appendix A.2.2.4 Task Definition/Methodology An operations representative was designated to arrange times and places for individual interviews. It was decided that since Unit 3 was off-line it would be most convenient to brief and interview individual operators (one at a time)in an alcove off the control room.The close proximity to the primary operating zone allowed the interviewee rapid return to control room duties if required, allowed demonstrations of incidents or, problems on the control board, and provided sufficient privacy to achieve a confidential interview. Each operator was briefed on the purpose of the inteview and its contribution to the overall control room evaluation, as well as about the role of human factors engineering in the design of power plant control systems and interfaces. The interviewees were also assured as to the anonymity of their responses. 22 Each question was read aloud and then paraphrased to ensure that the intent was clear.The interviewer listened carefully to each response, asking questions when state-rnents were unclear, recorded responses on the questionnaire (Appendix A), and read each'ecorded response aloud to the interviewee to ensure accuracy.Prior to each subsequent data collection task, the relevant section of each questionnaire was reviewed to ensure that all of the interviewees'oncerns were evaluated and verified.Questionnaires are retained in comprehensive project files to provide supporting data for this and other aspects of the evaluation. t 2.2.5 Output and Results Responses to individual questions were tallied and any clustering of answe'rs noted.A listing of the most frequently noted (clustered) responses is contained in Table 2.2.5-1.Many insights were identified only once (by one interviewee); yet when verified in the control room (with the three control room operators on shift), the insight was found to be shared.Therefore, all potential human factors engineering problems were reviewed and verified;not simply those problems most frequently identified. An area where this was particularly evident was in panel layout where a variety of potential grouping and arrangement problems were identified. Each negative observation (noted during interviews) was documented on Human Engineering Discrepancy forms and verified or discredited via subsequent surveys and/or Task Analysis.A number of negative observations were deleted where previously scheduled control room modifications ameliorated the potential discrepancies.

Noise, signal, and communication levels were measured to determine whether or not they met NUREG-0700 guidelines. 2 3.1.2 Review Team Selection and Responsibilities -The survey was performed by a human factors analyst familiar with the operation of the sound level meter used and fundamental properties of sound.2 3.1 3 Criteria-The following guidelines were used for data collection, analysis, and discrepancy documentation: o Ambient noise levels, under normal operating conditions, do not exceed 65 dB(A)(NUREG-0700, 6.1.5.5.b) o To ensure the audibility of signals and alarms, each is at least 10 dB(A)above the ambient noise level (NUREG-0700, 6.3.2.l.a) o Acceptable levels for voice communication are as indicated in Figure 2.3.1-1.2 3.1.4 Task Definitions Basal Level Reading and Contributing Noise Sources-Noise measurements were taken at a basal level, without contributing conversation, communication, or noise from signals and other oscillating sources.Contributing sources were measured first as individually as possible, then simultaneously. Potential noise sources include: o Audible Alarms o Printers o Communications equipment (ringing telephones, radios, loudspeakers) o Emergency or typical environmental control systems (air condition-ing, exhaust fans)(since this noise could not be eliminated, it as well as backroom relay clatter was included in all,basal measurements) o Loud conversation o Adjacent control room alarms o Open doors leading out of control room (noise from outside sources).Measurements at'Operating Positions and Desks-Measurements were taken at each operator position that requires verbal communication and/or auditory discrimination of a signal or communication. These positions included at a minimum all control room operators'esks and work stations (each panel).A diagram of the control room layout was prepared, and each measurement position was identified by number or code.27

Microphone Positions at Operators'esks -Microphone positions for measurements at operators'esks were: o Straight up o Toward nearest operator o Toward source of noise.Weightings for Measurement -Readings were taken in dB(flat), dB(A)and dB(C)weightings. Special attention was given to dB(A)readings since these simulate subjective responses to noise.The flat (dB)response is an indiscriminate mode, attributing the sound level to no specific frequency range.To be able to make single figure measurements that take the frequency response of the ear into account, three frequency weighting curves, A, B, and C, based upon the response of the ear, have been devised.The C-weighted mode has, essentially, a uniform response from 30 Hz to 8 kHz.The dB(A)mode is the most commonly used mode for industrial standards, and is the mode upon which the E:ssex survey recommendations were based.This mode favors the frequencies between 1 and 4 kHz, peaking at 2.5 kHz.Steady-state noise measurement is best made in this mode because it discriminates most sounds which are audible to the average ear over a period of time.Noise that was difficult to attribute to a specific source, when measured by using general weightings, was measured by using the octave band selector on the sound level meter.All readings were appropriately recorded.Ambient Noise Corrections -Accuracy requires that the background noise be at least 10 dB below the noise level being measured, in each octave band.E:ven with this 10 dB difference,. the background noise will add about 0.4 dB to the measured SPL.The ambient noise corrections given in the table may be used to compensate for the effect of background noise.

The unit was calibrated, per the instructions in the operations manual, prior to the collection of the data.Inputs and Data Forms-All readings were recorded on a floor plan of the Turkey Point Control Rooms.Remarks regarding any acoustical considerations and recommenda-tions were also recorded.Measurement positions were numbered or coded according to the first diagram.Outputs-Data were extracted from the Noise Survey form and diagrams and were analyzed for any anomalies. Readings that proved discrepant, resulting from excessive or inadequate levels, were reported on Human Engineering Discrepancy. Report forms.30 Recommendations were made for the solution of problems that were found in the course of the survey.Typical recommendations were acoustical absorption backfits and signal attenuation. 2 3.1.5 Findings/Results -Figures 2.3.1-2 through 2.3.1-8 present the noise level r data taken in the Turkey Point Control Rooms.Summarizing these data, Figure 2.3.1-2, basic ambient noise levels are in the acceptable-range of 59 to 66 dB(A).Noise sources which were identified and considered as significant contributors to ambient noise were: 1)the instrumentation power trans-formers located behind the operators panels, 2)the ventilation system, and 3)the overall control room vibration from (apparently) the turbine deck and major machinery. Sources which momentarily contributed to ambient noise (other than audible signals)included: o Opening and closing of accesses o Normal conversation o Habitation noises (paper shuffling, etc.).Figure 2.3.1-3 presents ambient noise levels for ten audible frequencies. The data indicate high levels of noise in the lower frequencies (63 to 80 dB in the 31 to 63 Hz frequency range)and moderate levels of noise (51 to 41 dB)in the middle to high frequency ranges, which represent the primary speech frequencies and most audible signal frequencies. Figures 2.3.1-4 to 2.3.1-8 present sound level data for ambient plus noise contri-buted from audible alarms.Note that significant auditory masking occurs: 1)when the frequencies of the target and the masking stimuli are about the same, and 2)when the masking stimulus is of a sfirlhtlv lower frequency than the target stimulus.The point of the above is that audible signal detection is a function of: 1)masker frequency, 2)masker intensity, 3)target frequency, and 4)target intensity. For all measured audible alarms, exept the Unit 3 annunciator audible, the alarm signal intensity (for the signal frequence) was greater than potential ambient masking frequencies for the same and adjacent lower ambient frequencies (see table below).

2.3.3 Control Room Environment Workspace Survey 2.3.3.l Objective-The objective of the Control Room Environment Survey was to evaluate the control r oom environment to ensure safe, comfortable, and efficient operation. The assessment included furniture and equipment layout;document organization, use, and storage;supervisor access to control room;ambiance and comfort;and temperature, humidity, and ventilation. 2 3.3.2 Review Team Selection-The personnel required to conduct this survey and their responsibilities included: o'A Human Factors Engineer was responsible for data collection, data analysis, and final report preparation. o Various Control Room Operators, familiar with the control room operations and problems, to assist in the assessment of the control room environment. Their input was contributed through informal and formal interview processes. o A Technical Assistant to aid in the collection of measurements and data.2.3.3.3 Criteria-The following are the summarized guidelines from NUREQ-0700 used to evaluate the control room environment. Detailed criteria are contained in the attached checklist. Furniture and Equipment Layout-Work stations, including desks, consoles, and panels, will be placed and spaced to facilitate unobstructed viewing, movement and communications. o L-shape, U-shape, concentric, or wing configurations facilitate sight, movement, and communications. o Enough space is allowed to enable a single operator to perform required tasks.A minimum of 50 inches is suggested between a single row of equipment/panel arid a wall or other opposing surface.A minimum of 50 inches is recommended between two rows of facing equipment. o A minimum of 8 feet of space is recommended between opposing rows of equipment where more than one operator must work simul-taneously or where kneeling or bending is necessary. Document Organization, Use, and Storage-A good system for organizing and storing documents is required to enhance their location and use.All documents are easily accessible. Documents are clearly labeled.Supervisor Access to Control Room-The shift supervisor's office is readily accessible to the control room.48 Temperature, Humidity, and Ventilation o Air temperature at floor level and at head level should not differ by more than 10o F.o The ventilation system should introduce outdoor air into the control room at a rate of at least 15,cubic feet per minute per occupant.Ambiance and Comfort-Features to consider in creating a pleasant and com-fortable atmosphere in the control room are: o Color combination o Color and lighting o Visual relief from instrumentation o Comfortable seating o Carpeting. 2.3.3.4 Task Definition/Methodology The below procedures were performed for each of the control room envirnoment subcategories. Furniture and Equipment Layout.o The control room work stations were determined to include the Control Room Operator's desk, the entire bench console, vertical panels A, B, and NIS, and the computer printer table.Also examined were entrance/exists from the primary area, and walkspace/ passageway dimensions surrounding work stations.o Maintenance and operational requirements were reviewed (to elimi-nate those criteria not applicable to this control room).o Sample components were evaluated using the checklist. Document Organization, Use, and Storage o The plant procedures documents were selected for evaluation as these were the only documents stored within the primary area of the control room.o The procedures were evaluated on a sample basis, according to the NUREG-0700 guidelines, using the checklist. Supervisor Access to Control Room-Access for the Nuclear Plant Supervisor and Nuclear Watch Engineer were evaluated, using to the NUREG-0700 guidelines and the prepared checklist. Meetings were attended regarding the possible relocation of, these offices, to assess operational requirements and possible alternatives to the present design.49 Temperature, Humidity, and Ventilation o Temperature and Humidity were measured 24 hours each at head and floor level using a 7-day continuous circular trend recorder.o Ventilation was measured using a Davis Ball Bearing Anemometer hand-held six feet above the floor at three equally spaced locations of vertical panel A (A-F on attached drawing)for each unit.Other workspace locations sampled (e.g., G-J)produced no significant readings on the scale.Five 1-minute readings within a 2-foot square matrix (approximate space occupied by one standing operator)were taken at each location, averaged, and the correction factor applied to derive actual air velocity in feet per minute (FPM).A multiplication factor of 2 cubic feet (size of measured matrix)was used to convert feet per minute to cubic feet per minute (CFM)yielding air quantity in each location.o Temperature, Humidity and Ventilation measurements were evaluated using NUREG-0700 guidelines and the prepared checklist. Control Room Decor-Operator interviews were reviewed, and each feature of control room decor was evaluated, according to NUREG-0700 guidelines. 2DD.5 Results/Findings -The output for this survey includes the completed checklist for each subcategory of the control room environment, Human Engineering Discrepancy Reports for each parameter conflicting with NUREG-0700 guidelines, and a tabular listing of ventilation measurements. Table 2.3.3-1 summarizes Human Engineer-ing Discrepancies identified during this survey.In general, the Turkey Point control rooms met the NUREG-0700 guidelines. Two Human Engineering Discrepancies of particular interest were: 1)supervisor visual access to the control room and 2)mirror imaging in the control rooms.Each is discussed below.Supervisor Visual Access-Figures 2.3.3-1 and 2.3.3.2 show control room visibility from the shift formen's and watch engineer's offices, respectively. Note that a good deal of each control room is obscured by the nuclear instrumentation system (7-foot vertical)panels.A variety of means to ameliorate these discrepancies have been considered, from"bulging" the offices out into the control room between the nuclear instrumentation system panels to elevating the office floors to a point when visibility over the nuclear instrumentation system panels would be afforded.Florida Power&Light elected to extend the Nuclear Plant Supervisor's office into the control room area, which allows complete control room visibility. Unit Mirror Imaging-Mirror-imaging in design is considered to potentially present a problem in terms of its impact on human performance in systems operation. The potential impact of this design is represented in plant staffing: if each unit had separate 50 TABLE 2 3.3-1 ENVIRONMENT/WORKSPACE SURVEY

This was conducted using Task Analysis and Spatial-Operational Sequence Diagams to depict interrelationships between temporal and sequential aspects of the task sequences..In addition, traffic patterns were used to evaluate movement between panels and the effects of mirror-imaging. The results indicate a divergent operational sequence for personnel who operate both units.Figures 2.3.3-4 and 2.3.3-5 show, for the same task sequence (reactor startup from hot standby), the traffic requirements for Units 3 and 4, respectively. Note that circulating patterns are similar, but 1)links differ in length, and 2)directions are revised.Figures 2.3.3-6 and 2.3.3-7 make this point move dramatically. In micro, task sequences conducted on the vertical ("B")panels are mirrored.Figures 2.3.3-8 and 2.3.3-9 show a task sequence for Units 3 and 4, respectively. Note that this is the same task sequence for each unit.The major concern in this example is the visual similarity of the panel layouts, particularly in the area of the recirculation and sectioning values (Task 2).Here a definite possibility of control substitution exists.From the above, two distinct concerns are apparent: 1)divergent traffic patterns between the two control rooms, and 2)once vertical"B" panel has seen accessed, mirrored left/right sequences. Fach of these is discussed below.54

In other words, an operator may initially orient himself to the right, rather than the left, to begin access to the panel.However, there are numerous noncognitive cues to panel location, probably the most significant being the periphery of vision and the acoustical environment:. Additionally, the only error type anticipated are those concerning temporal access to controls and displays.Here if a misorientation occurs, it would be readily identified and reorientation would take place.In this case, temporal errors would probably be measured in milliseconds. Given this, essentially no severe adverse operational effects from mirror-imaging of control room overall layout are expected or predicted. Mirrored Left/Ri ht Se uences-Qf greater interest to the issues of operability is the mirroring of the designs of the vertical"B" (Safeguards) panels.As mentioned earlier with regard to the example task sequences of Figures 2.3.3-8 and 2.3.3-9, the principal errors that could be involved are control and display substitution errors.Again, however, the stimuli for orienting to, and accessing, controls and displays are not entirely homogeneous. That is, the visual periphery and acoustic cues are not identical and therefore may not greatly facilitate substitution errors.Indeed many cues exist which may faciltate correct responding. For example, as both units, the safety injection controls/displays are located between the vertical"A" panel and containment isolation on the vertical"B" panels.Panel orientation will probably be towards (or away from)significant stimuli, e.g., vertical panel"A".In humans, left-right discriminations based on interoceptive (or internal, or cognitive) stimuli are at best unreliable. Far more reliable discriminations are exteroceptive cues, e.g., vision and sound.However, different response patterns to similar stimuli do exist, and some cues may be added to help mitigate any deleterious effects of left-right stimulus transfer.That is, additional stimuli can be added to the panels to facilitate correct responding; in this case, demarcation and summary labels.Figures 2.3.3-9 and 2.3.3-10 show the same task sequence for Turkey Point Units 3 and 4 on the vertical"8" panels.The demarcations in these figures clearly break up the panels and provide many additional component localization cues.It is considered to drastically reduce component localization time and increase the probability of correct responding. With demarcations and summary labels as indicated in these figures, minimal negative transfer is anticipated. Mirror-imaged panels (Safeguard Panels)were compared on a component basis to identify those components which appear out of sequence within a functional group between units.The potential for operator substitution error exists since the mirror-image 62 CONTAINMENT ISOLATION FIG.3.3-10 TP UNIT 4 TASK SEQ CE WITH DEMARCATION SAFElY IN J ECTION CONTAINMENT SPRAY VALVES Ii (.(i 9 CONTAINMENT ACCESS (i 0 ()0 (3 O 0 0<r ()0 0 0 (3 (i V 0 0 0000 0()l'>0 ()(g ()000 OO OOOO OOOO OO 0 0 ()()0 000 000 0 0 (.)OOO 000 000 000 END PNST LEVEL 00 00 00 00 DIESEL GEN START Qr Qr Rx TRIP 00 00 Qr BPR ES OIS PRESSURIZER PROTECTION TEMP STREAMLINE ISOLATION 0'r Or CONTAINMENT ISOLATION RN BYP PHASE B PHASE A Or Or Or Qr Qr gr Sl ACTUATION Or Or Sl RESET Sl BLOCK 3 3 SAFETY IN J ECTION PUMPS CONTAINMENT SPRAY 00 Sl VLVS 00 00 CONTAINMENT ISOLATION VLVS 0 0 00 00 00 00 00 00 Qsw Qsw Qsw Qsw Qsw Qsw 00 00 00 00 00 00 Qs Qsw Qsw Qsw Qsw Qsw S'IS 0 0 5 SW sw SI VLVS 00 00 DIS sw 0 00 (st Qs Qsw Qs 00 00 Qsw Qsw Qsw Qsw oo oo oo oo Qsw Qs Qsw Qs 00 Q Qsw Qsw Qsw Qsw SIS SECT VLVS 0 0 f s 2 2 00 00 Usw Qsw 00 00 QKO QKO Qsw Qsw RECIRC VLVS 00 00 Usw Usw 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 Q RNST VLVS 00 00 Qsw Qs Qsw 00 OO OO OO Qsw Qsw Qsw Qs RHR DISH VLVS 00 OG 00 00 Qsw Qs Qsw Qs design disturbs the left-to-right or top-to-bottom sequence an operator would expect to find on both units.Specific controls and displays which violate expectancies and conventions are listed below.o Several controls in the grouping for S.G.BLOWDOWN, S.G.SAMPLE and BORON INJECTION are in different arrangements between units.o Sequence of displays for HOT LEG and COLD LEG FLOW differs between uni ts.o Arrangements of controls for the SAFETY INJECTION group located in the center of the panel are identical betweeh units with the exception of the bottom four controls which are in reversed arrange-ment between units.Control substitution is highly likely.o Sequence of indicator lights for RECIRCULATION SUMPS are reversed on Unit 4 with SUMP B NORTH to the left of SUMP A o Arrangement of the display group for RHR INTERLOCK, RHR OUTFLOW, COMPONENT COOLING TEMPERATURES differs in the lef t-to-right sequence between units.o Arrangement of the COMPONENT COOLING WATER controls differs between units.The top-to-bottom sequence of PUMPS A, B, C and adjacent related controls are not identical between units.o Group sequence of AUX BUILDING VENTILATION controls differ between units.Arrangement on Unit 3 is as follows (left-to-right): -SUPPLY FAN A, B, EXHAUST FAN A, B.Arrangement on Unit 4 is as follows (left-to-right): EXHAUST FAN A, B, SUPPLY FAN A, B.This is potentially confusing because an operator uses adjacent or surrounding components for cues in locating a needed component. o Sequence of controls differ between units for PRZR STEAM SAMPLE ISOL, LOOP ARAB SAMPLE ISOL, ACCUMULATOR SAMPLE ISOL, RC DRAIN TK GAS ANAL ISOL.o Component appearance for RHR LTDN TO CVCS controller'differs between units.Unit 3 controller has a black face plate, Unit 4 controller has a silver face plate.o Label terminology differs between units for identical components.

Operations personnel available in the control room at the time of data collection answered plant-specific questions regarding the operator-control board interface. In addition, many guideline items required access to engineering, maintenance, and instrumentation and control personnel for resolution and identification of Human Engineering Discrepancies. These personnel were contacted on an as-needed basis.2.3.4D Criteria-Criteria for controls and displays are presented in the control and display checklists which consist of NUREG-0700 recommended guidelines that are applicable to assessment of detailed control and display design.The specific checklists -used by the review team are presented in Appendix A.2.3.4.4 Task Definition/Methodology -The Controls and Displays Survey was divided into a number of component-specific checklists (e.g., meters, rotary controls), each of which was designed to be used independent of all other checklists. 'll checklist items for a particular control or display type were applied to each component in that class.Each component that did not meet a criterion was listed in a Human Engineering Discrepancy discussing the guideline violated.All Human Engineering Discrepancies resulting from this survey are listed on the appropriate control room inventory forms, providing Florida Power Bc Light with a list of control and display detailed design discrepancies associated with each component. 2D.4.5 Results/Findings -Table 2.3.4-1 lists each Human Engineering Discrepancy identified as a result of the Controls and Displays Survey.The table contains the finding number, category, description, and related comments.Control Board Maintenance -Obsolete components have not been removed, meter scale face coding has not been updated to match expected scale values, and dynatape is used to change scale ranges and position labels rather than modifying or replacing the control or display with an appropriate component. Other problems with component use are also a product of plant age.Tape used to code operating zones on meter scale faces is peeling off and paint from position labels has chipped, rendering a subset of the labels unreadable.

Some controllers have conventional 0-100 scales for valve position, but the"100" indicates that the valve is 100 percent closed.A clockwise rotation of the associated knob, therefore, closes rather than opens the valve.Some rotary controls have"off" or"stop" to the right of the"on" or"start" positions. Control Panel Contrast-No controls are presently color coded.Silver thumb rotaries, keyswitches, and toggle switches on the main control panels and black discrete rotaries on the nuclear instrumentation system channels should not be coded by their present colors, however, because they do not contrast sufficiently with the panel color.All other controls may be coded by their present color.Inadvertent Actuation-Rotaries on the Safeguard Panels are guarded by placing magnetized metal covers over them.The covers have either red or green construction paper taped to them, indicating whether the valve is normally open or closed, and the valve number is written on the construction paper.The guards are inadequate because they may be moved easily and do not always cover the control.They are not desirable from a human factors standpoint because they sometimes obscure the control labels or indicator lights, may be placed somewhere on a panel other than over the intended control, and must be moved when the guarded control is used, possibly interfering with the operation or observation of adjacent controls or displays.Rotaries on process controllers which should not be manipulated by control room operators are coded with a red dot.These controllers are, however, interspersed in a row of identical controllers and all are guarded in the same away.Similarly, fuses which, when pulled, will result in a reactor trip are not guarded or marked to distinguish them from less important fuses.Pushbuttons -The following discrepancies with pushbuttons were noted: o Nonlegend pushbuttons provide no form of positive feedback when activated. o Some illuminated pushbuttons on the area radiation monitor are not concave or frictionalized. o egen pus L nd pushbuttons on the area radiation monitor look like the legend be lights on the process radiation monitor.One of the two should e coded in some way so that they are distinguishable. Key-Operate wi c es-d S t h-At the time of the evaluation, key-operated switches were only installed in Unit 3.Analogous controls had not yet been installed in Unit 4.if, 70 once installed, they are identical to those in Unit 3,,the Human Engineering Discrepancies discussed will apply to both units.The following discrepancies with keyswitches were noted: o Keys are not inserted with teeth pointing up.o Locks are not oriented so that the switch is"off" when the key is in the vertical position.Rotary Controls-The following problems with rotary controls were noted: o J-Handle controls are too small and provide more than the recom-mended clearance when in the"pull-to-lock" position.o Both the continuous rotary knobs and the knob skirts on process controllers are too small.o Black discrete rotaries on nuclear instrumentation system channels may be positioned between detented points.o Rotaries on nuclear instrumentation system channels are not provided with a visible indication of position.Information Displayed-Necessary information is not always displayed to the-required degree of specificity, or is not available when necessary. The following are the noted instances: o All three condensate storage tank indications are powered by the same supply.If that supply were to fail, none would be available. o The RCP VIBRATION RECORDER, the only indication of pump vibration, takes two minutes to provide a trend.o CCW Header A and B level meters normally read between 0 an'd 10 but the scale is 0-140.o Some scales must be multiplied by a factor other than ten, making interpretations of these displays more difficult. In addition, scale multipliers are not well labeled.o SECONDARY WATER CONDUCTIVITY is displayed in Micromhos/cm rather than ppm, the units of measurement used by operators. Scaled Displays-Discrepancies associated with the design of the instrument generally resulted from poor scale or pointer design.Discrepancies with scale design include the following: o Some graduations are missing or too small.o Major, intermediate, and minor marks are sometimes used inappropri-ately.o Adjacent meters measuring the same parameter do not always.have compatible markings.71 o Meters with curved faces have parallax problems at all but the middle, part of the scale.Discrepancies with pointer design include the following: o Pointers on vertical meters are more than 1/16 inch from graduation marks.o A single pointer is used with multiple scales.o Pointer tips on impact recorders, horizontal meters on process controllers, and semicircular meters associated with rotary controls obscure graduation marks and/or scale numerals.o Pointer/background contrast on RWST level meters is insufficient because a temporary black label has been added behind the black pointer.Light Indicators -Discrepancies with indicator lights are of two types: use of lights-in'nappropriate situations, and misinterpretation of light meaning because of component design.Indicator lights are (but should not be)used to alert operators to unfavorable conditions and to imply equipment status..The OMS legend light has a split window which illuminates completely when either side lights up.Trend Recorders-Trend recorders are of two types: continuous (strip charts)and discrete (impact recorders). The following trend recorder discrepancies were noted during the evaluation: o The Tracor Westronics strip charts installed in Unit 4 have pen vibration. o Recorder paper scale does not always correspond with the integral recorder scale.o No recorders (other than the Tracor Westronic) have variable paper speeds.o Impact recorders do not identify the channel being displayed. o Impact recorders are often loaded beyond their channel capacity, making it difficult to identify any one trend.o It is not possible to select a single impact recorder channel for display before awaiting completion of the sampling cycle.72 2.3.5 Conventions Survey 2D.5.1 Objectives -The objectives of the Conventions Survey were to identify plant conventions and to determine if these were in compliance with the field survey document.Where discrepancies were identified an assessment was'made to determine if there were deviations from acceptable in-place control room conventions, and to determine if a lack of convention was detrimental to efficient plant operation. 2.3.5.2 Review Team Responsibilities -Human factors representatives interviewed 4 operators, applied checklists, and identified discrepancies. Operators were requested to identify conventions, sequences, and violations of conventions. 2.3.5.3 Criteria-Detailed criteria are contained in the checklists in Appendix A.2.3.5.4 Task Definitions/Methodology Interview-Control room operations personnel were interviewed to determine what conventions exist in the control room related to arrangement of systems and components, coding, abbreviations and acronyms, and control operation. Questions were presented to determine whether or not confusion existed due to certain conventions, deviations, or lack of conventions. Sample-A sampling of components, systems, labels, and other performance aids were used to verify interview findings.If 50 percent or more of each group were similar in arrangement, coding, and operation, then a convention was assumed to be established. Deviations were reported, as well as lack of convention. Checklist-A checklisting procedure was employed to determine if existing conventions are acceptable by human factors standards. Some items required operator assistance. 2D.5.5 Results/Findings -The data collected is contained on the raw checklist along with interview questions and comments.The identified discrepancies were documented on Human Engineering Discrepancy Report forms.Table 2.3.5-1 summarizes findings (Human Engineering Discrepancies) of the Conventions Survey.Suggestions or recommendations for the resolution of each discrepancy are docu-mented on the Human Engineering Discrepancy Report forms and were discussed at joint Essex/Florida Power h Light Human Engineering Discrepancy review meetings.In general, very few conventions have been established in the two control rooms;therefore, there are not many discrepancies regarding inconsistent use of conventions. In a complex control room it is recommended that conventions be established (and be adhered to d consistently) to reduce operator reliance on memory and reading errors.Definition an implementation of a standard set of control room conventions will aid in overall operations and reduce potehtial confusion.

Those characteristics were observed at the process computer terminal, or were identified through interviews with a plant Digital Data Processing System cognizant engineer and reviews of system design documentation. The system characteristics gathered from the above sources were then compared to human factors engineering design guidelines, and deviations from these guidelines were recorded as Human Engineering Discrepancies. 2 3.6.2 Review Team Responsibilities -The review team included a human factors analyst, a computer-cognizant engineer{Florida Power Bc Light employee)responsible for the Digital Data Processing System modifications, maintenance, etc., and the plant/control room operators who utilize the Digital Data Processing System.The computer-cognizant engineer provided information that was not easily accessible to the evaluator from documentation sources, and the control room operators provided system operations information as required.2.3.6 3 Criteria-The guidelines used for evaluating the man-machine interface characteristics of the process computer were the following: Detailed Design-The guidelines checklist in sections 6.7.1, 6.7.2, and 6.7.3 of NUREG-0700 provided the criteria for the survey.The characteristics evaluated by means of these checklists typically address harwdare design characteristics. Of equal importance are the operational characteristics of the Digital Data Processying System..For example, while the design guidelines specify the appropriate delay period for system response to keyboard requests for information, no guideline was suggested for evaluating the efficiency of the information access strategy required to reach the necessary level of information detail.Many of the above system operational characteristics were addressed in checklist fashion.Task Requirements -Additionally, the outputs of the function and task analyses (NUREG-0700 recommended studies)where they address the operation of the plant process computers were reviewed by the personnel conducting this survey.The survey evaluators are the evaluation team personnel most familiar with computer operation (from the hardware standpoint) and are the logical candidates to perform an evaluation of system operational characteristics; i.e., be involved in the conduct of an analysis of process computer operational tasks.Issues addressed by the analysis include the following: 75 'o Have the operational information display functions{e.g., operations monitoring, operations analysis, etc.)been provided for in the display system design?o Has the information access structure been organized to facilitate the most frequently used functions and subfunctions, i.e., display system mode and submode organizational efficiency? o Does the allocation of functions to either man or machine capitalize on their respective functional capabilities? o Are the display formats appropriate to the displayed information type?o Does the display system design provide display page formatting flexibility which accommodates individual operator decisionmaking styles?Has too much flexibility been provided resulting in degraded decision-aiding support?2.3.6.4 Task Definition/Methodology -The two CRTs with corresponding key-boards and the printer that comprise the cont'rol room Digital Data Processing System were evaluated according to NUREQ-0700 guidelines using the checklist contained in Appendix A.The checklisting was conducted by an Essex Research Scientist using the avenues of observation, measurement, document review, hands-on demonstration, and interview as data sources.Additional data and confirmation of survey findings were contributed by the review of operator interviews and the Task Analysis.Identified discrepancies were documented on Human Engineering Discrepancy forms.2.3.6.5 Results/Findings -The results of the Process Computer Survey include the completed checklist and Human Engineering Discrepancy Reports for each parameter not in agreement with guidelines. Table 2.3.61 summarizes all Human Engineering Discrepan-cies identified during the survey.In general, the discrepancies found related to the limitations of the equipment and programming. For example, o The computer printer did not print rapidly enough o There is no scroll function or page designation for data contained on multiple pages o The dialogue does not contain delay feedback messages 76 TABLE 2.3.6-1 PROCESS COMPUTER SURVEY

Using checklists drawn from NUREG-0700 and a standard rhyme test, the emergency garments and breathing apparatus were evaluated. The evaluation consisted of anthropometrics, communications while wearing breath-ing apparatus, storage and placement of emergency gear in the control room, the ease of access to and donning of emergency gear, and operation of the control boards while wearing emergency clothing.2.3.7.2 Review Team Responsibilities -The evaluation team was composed of two Essex Corporation staff members, one utility staff member from the Health Physics Department, and one control room operator.The Essex staff, composed of research scientists and associates, served as human factors specialists. Utility Health Physics personnel functioned as operations specialists and evaluation process expediters. The experience of the control room operator aided in identification of plant-specific discrep-ancies relevant to the survey.2D.7D Criteria-The control room emergency garments should comply with the guidelines contained in NUREG-0700. Operator Protective Equipment'Types of Equipment-Protective equipment includes protective clothing and breathing apparatus. o Anthropometry -Protective clothing and breathing equipment are compatible with operator body size and tasks to provide adequate tactile sensitivity and ability to see, reach, move, communicate, and hear.o Periodic'Checks-Operator protective equipment is periodically checked to determine if it is in good condition. o Quantity-Protective equipment is available in sufficient quantities and sizes for the required number of operators. o Marking-Protective clothing sizes are clearly identifiable. o Expendables -There is an adequate supply of personal protection equipment expendables, such as filters.o Accessibility -All protective equipment is easily and readily accessible. o Training-Operators are well practiced in donning protective equip-ment.o Procedures -Instructions for donning, doffing, and controlling per-sonal protective equipment are provided.80 Emergency Communications -Voice communications with masks survey guidelines: o Emergency face masks are equipped with diaphragms that are specially designed to transmit speech.o The diaphragms separate voice from exhaust valve action.o If not equipped with diaphragms, masks are equipped with electronic speech systems which pick up the voice with an internal microphone and transmit it to a loudspeaker attached outside the mask.2D.7.4 Task Definitions/Methodology -A human factors specialist with Health Physics training observed and timed Health Physics personnel dressing out in anti-contamination clothing.Overall time and task times, along with pertinent human factors l observations, were recorded.A touch-and-feel test for the identification of an assortment of hand-held objects was conducted with a subject wearing anti-contamination gloves.A subject was observed donning the breathing apparatus. Overall time and task times along with pertinent human factors observations were recorded.A modified rhyme test requires a subject (listener) to identify a set of spoken words from a list of phonetically similar (rhyming)words.A modified rhyme test was conducted with the talker wearing the breathing apparatus mask to test the intelligibility of speech when attenuated by the mask faceplate. The test was then repeated using a mask equipped with an electronic speech system.The talker's instructions used during the test were: 1.Each list was presented by the following statement: "This is test t where the blank was replaced with the list identification letter found at the bottom left corner of the Talker's List.2.Each word was embedded in the carrier sentence"Please circle in group", where the first blank was the target word from the Talker's List and the second blank was the word group number from the corresponding Listener's Sheet containing the target word.3.The presentation rate was approximately 4 seconds between target words.2.3.7.5 Results(Findings -Several HEDs were identified in the course of this survey.These are presented in Table 2.3.7-1, and address 1)the availability of procedures for donning/controlling inventory of protective equipment and clothing, 2)the storing and packaging of protective clothing, 3)accessibility and labeling of protective clothing, and 4)labeling of fire fighting equipment. Results of the survey subtasks are presented below.81

OF FINDINGS File No.25 26 27 HEDGE 614la,h 6142 6143b TP-3 IIA IIC III Cate or TP-4 IIA IIC III Descri tion Protective equipment storage/donning. Procedures for donning/accessing/ controlling Fire equipment Labeling of storage locker Emergency Garment Dress-Out-Observed task times and observations are recorded on Table 2.3.7-2.As noted, it took approximately six minutes to dress out.(without breathing apparatus), including exiting the control room, accessing the equipment, dressing out, and returning to the control room.An additional 25 seconds were required to don and adjust breathing apparatus (Scott air packs), making total dress out time 390 seconds.This amount of time is considered reasonable, and, therefore, no Human Engineering Discrepancies were generated. Glove Sensitivity -Common pocket items and/or tools were used to test tactile identification and glove sensitivity. Subjects (human factors analysts)attempt to identify items by feel picking up while wearing the provided anticontamination gloves, the objects identified below: Item Correctly Identif ied Remarks Key Yes Pencil Yes Pen Yes Coins: 25)coin 10$coin Paperclips (Large)Yes Yes/No Yes Potentially confused for penny Paperclips (Small)Small clamp Eraser Yes Yes No Human Engineering Discrepancies were identified during this subtask.It was, however, noted that when using prophylactic gloves with cotton undergloves, freedom of hand movement was somewhat restricted and the muscles controlling hand motion were fatigued rather rapidly.This seems due to the muscles having to overcome the elasticity of the glove materials. TABLE 2.3.7-2 ANTI-CONTAMINATION DRESS OUT TIME Task Descri tion Task Cumulative Time Task Time-(Sec)(Sec)Remarks Start from main control board area and go to dress-out area.40 40 Get key from NWE Go to locker (over 2 rope barriers)Open 2 padlocks and a latch (Task 8)approx.15 sec.more to return to CR (inadequate space in front of locker to dress out).Locate and open garment storage, layout garments.Don overalls.19 59 Overalls were a little large so extra time was required to tape the waist (take up slack)(see step 5).Don boots and hat.Tape seams, prepare tape for gloves.25 92 217 No hat was provided.Tape was hard to handle as the roll was large and unwieldy.Perhaps a tape dispenser would be of assistance. Bag and tape badges, TLD, dosimeter. 254 Don and tape gloves.Return to control board.96 15 350 365 Total time 365 sec.=6.1 minutes Speech Intelligibility With Breathing Mask-This test (a modified rhyme test)was run under free-air, low (minimum)ambient noise level conditions. During the initial conduct of the test a distance of approximately six feet was maintained between the listener and speaker.In this test, the speaker, while wearing a Scott air pack and mask, presented 55 words (see Table 2.3.7-3)to the listener (see Table 2.3.7-4), of which 34 words or 62 percent were correctly identified. The test was repeated twice (at 6 and 10 ft.)using a mask equipped with a"Speak Ezee" electronic voice amplification device and new subjects.Intelligibility was significantly improved with use of the"Speak Ezee" advice.With this device attached, 55 words presented to two additonal listeners. Listener 1 correctly identified 50 of 55, or 91 percent, of the speaker words.Listener 2 correctly identified 47 of the 55 words, or 85 percent correct identification. Total correct responses were then 97 correct out of 110 words, or 88 percent accuracy, a significant improvement from the unaided speech intelligibity. Given.contextual cues to enhance speech intelligibility, use of the"Speak E:zee" device with breathing apparatus should provide good communications.

A control room operator was required to assist in collecting the necessary information and to advise the human factors specialist of problems that have been encountered. 2.3.8 3 Criteria-The criteria used for the labeling survey are contained in the labels checklist and are presented in Appendix A of this report.2.3.8.4 Task Description -All components, panels, and systems requiring identifi-cation and manipulation were examined to ensure that they were labeled, as were the positions of all discrete controls.In addition, the location and orientation of each label were evaluated for readability and consistency. Panels without hier archical labeling were identified. Label content was reviewed for clarity, brevity, and spelling.Label readability was evaluated. Measurements included character height, width, width-to-height ratios, and visual angle subtended at the eye;stroke width-to-character height ratios;space between characters, words and lines;and character-to-background contrast.P Type style was assessed for consistency, simplicity, and use of all capital letters.Components with unique labeling requirements (e.g., contrast on electronic counters)were evaluated. Temporary labels, including equipment"tag-outs", were assessed to ensure that they conform with human engineering criteria applied to permanent labels.The procedure for adding a temporary label to the board was evaluated. 2 3.8.5 Results/Findings -A list of all Human Engineering Discrepancies identified during this survey are presented in Table 2.3.8-1.A summary of these findings regarding labels is presented below.Need for Labeling-Many components lack sufficient descriptive labeling, and some have only temporary dynatape labels.In particular, the Area Radiation Monitor panel and the Hydrogen Recombination panel have inadequate labeling.Labeling criteria requires each component to have a permanent label horizontally oriented above the element.Descriptive labeling for vertical meters is vertically oriented on the display face with the engineering nomenclature on a horizontal label above the component. Many recorders are lacking legend cards to identify pens or channels as well as a descriptive functional label.Most panels lack a hierarchical labeling scheme with letter gradations to 88 TABLE 2.3.8-1 LABELS SURVEY

In general, labels are positioned inconsistently throughout the boards with placement beside, below,,and above the described component. For example, display units of measurement appear at the bottom or at the top.Meter labels are vertically oriented on the display face.It is recommended that one arrangement be adopted-placement above the component-and be consistently followed.In many instances component identification may be confusing because labels are not located in close proximity to the associated component and because adjacent labels appear to be continuous.'he mounting of some labeling is precarious. Although most labels are screwed onto the panel, some have broken off and have been loosely taped back on.The visibility of portions of recorded matter, figures, or scales is degraded by labels and legend cards located on the display face.A specific rotary control was identified which conceals part of the position label.Control position labels on the Radiation Monitor Panel are partially concealed by the knob skirts.Label Content-It was found that there are instances of labeling in which content was either excessive or inadequate. The primary function of a component should be described in a concise and explicit manner.Some labels are ambiguous, unclear or inaccurate due to improper word selection. In one case a pushbutton which uses an arrow to indicate flow status is reversed showing an inaccurate condition. Clarity of label content is often degraded by the usage of inconsistent abbreviations, acronyms or alphanumeric codes.For instance, some identifiers consist of a three-character alpha code which may be confused with an abbreviated word or acronym.Some control position labels are inconsistently labeled.Breaker control positions are inappropriately labeled as"ON" and"OFF", while pump control positions are labeled as"TRIP" and"CLOSE".Cases of misspelling and the use of Roman numerals were identified. Maintenance -Various function and position labels and legends on pushbuttons have become dirty from the collection of grime and dust thereby reducing letter-to-background contrast and readability. It should also be noted that the use of white letters on a dark background is not recommended due in part to the greater likelihood of loss of readability from dirt.Dark characters on a light background would generally prevent this from occurring. There is widespread use of temporary labels on all panels.Such usage is not limited to conditions of high necessity for a temporary period, and appplication is not administratively or procedurally controlled to comply with good human engineering principles. Some"tag-out". labels were in the form of red and white slips hung over the switch handle.They were not s'ecured to the component to prevent control actuation, and often obscure associated and adjacent labels.Label Format and Readabilit -Label readability was found to be degraded by the following lettering characteristics. o Inconsistent character dimensions o Insufficient character height for viewing angle and maximum distance o Inadequate width-to-height ratio of counter numerals o Use of lowercase letters o Letter width-to-height ratios and stroke widths for component and position labels are less than the recommended dimensions o Spacing between characters, words and lines is less than the required minimum for legend lights and Electronic displays (LEDs)o Legend letter size is too small and has low contrast with background o Use of a slanted font and a font with serifs o Legends have more than three lines of lettering o Counter numerals are not separated by commas, decimals or spaces where appropriate. 94 2 3.9 Annunciator Survey 2.3.9.1 Objective-The objective of the Annunciator Survey was to assess the operability and usability of the system using the guidelines outlined in NUREG-0700, and to document and assess all resulting discrepancies. 2.3.9.2 Review Team Responsibilities -The members of the review team included a human factors specialist to conduct the annunciator survey;a nuclear operations specialist to supply plant systems information (i.e., interrelationship of various compo-nents, the impact of loss of a pump on plant operations); and a plant instrumentation and control engineer to answer questions, provide information, and obtain any necessary documentation for completion of this task.2.3.9.3 Criteria-The criteria used to evaluate the annunciator system are described in the Annunciator Checklist. The specific criteria for each subtask are contained in Appendix A.2 3.9.4 Task Definition/Methodology -This survey was conducted by: 1)applica-tion of checklists, and 2)by verification of operator concerns identified during operator interviews. The checklists were separated into two major parts: visual displays and auditory warnings.These checklists addressed maintainability, identification, coding, operation, and arrangements of the annunciator system.The checklisting was designed to be conducted on-site.Operations personnel were interviewed about the system, and were asked to demonstrate the alarm systems operability. Observations and notations were recorded on the checklist sheets.For those items found to be in conflict with checklist criteria, Human Engineering Discrepancy reports were written.2.3.9.5 Results/Findings -Table 2.3.9-1 lists all Human Engineering Discrepancies identified in the course of this survey.Following are the general findings of this survey.Annunciator Controls-Only one set of annunciator controls exists in each control room, and no test or reset functions/controls are provided.Figure 2.3.9-1 shows the location of annunciator controls for each unit.Certain advantages exist for the Turkey Point control rooms having one annunciator control station for each plant.The orienting responses to alarm control stations will be stronger (since only one response station exists), which should tend to reduce response latency.Also given the size and arrangement of the control rooms and the central location of the annunciator response stations, operator responses to anomalies could be facilitated. Several disadvantages also exist, including potential for increased control room traffic, for increased visual distances to annunciator tiles, and for possible crowding of the annunciator control locations during periods of high activity.The distance from the annunciator control location to the 95 TABLE 2.3.9-1 ANNUNCIATOR SURVEY

individual windows, and therefore window readability, is of the most concern.Additional control stations would relieve this discrepancy, as would larger, more legible tiles.Annunciator Readability -Annunciator font-size was determined to be too small from the central operating station (at the console)to any annunciator window location.The window size is also very small which prevents a significant increase in legend font size without replacing the entire annunciator system.It is recommended that enhance-ment (coding)techniques and inceasing font size be used to improve readability. Coding-During the survey, no coding (other than first out panel location coding)was being used.A means to prioritize is currently being developed and will be implemented. Nuisance Alarms-Operator interviews identified several nuisance and general alarms as follows: "Normally in" alarms were identified by operators as being: o RCP bypass flow low (2 observations) o Source range loss of detection voltage (1 observation) o RHR heat exchange to flow (3 observations) o CR local-normal control (1 observation) o FW HTR levels (1 observation) Nusiance alarms were identified by operators as being: o SG level (2 observations) o Steam flow (1 observation o Feed flow (1 observation) o FW HTR hi/lo level (1 observation) o PRZR cubicle hi/low temp (1 observation) o Condensate recovery tank hi level (2 observations) o Waste boron panel trouble (3 observations) o Ht tracing trouble (2 observations) o WTR plant trouble (1 observation) o Radwaste (1 observation) It is recommended that a review of set points on (or the necessity for)the identified nuisance annunciators be conducted; and, an alarm for Reactor Coolant Pump vibration be added to Unit 4.Functional Groups-In general, annunciator tiles are well grouped.Seven tiles were identified by operators. as being poorly located as follows: 99 o,SI pump low suction pressure o CCW surge TK level o RCP standpipe hi/low level o Bypass low flow o Breathing air system trouble o SG blowdown TK hi pressure o SG blowdown TK hi/low level 100
2D.10 Anthropometry Survey 2.3.10.1 Objective-The objective. of the Anthropometry Survey was to determine whether controls and displays are located in a manner which makes them highly visible, within reach, and precludes inadvertent actuation. 2.3.10.2 Review Team Responsibilities -Two human factors engineers took the measurements necessary for performance of the Anthropometry Survey.With those measurements, a human factors specialist analyzed reach envelopes and visual angles, applied all checklist items, and identified and documented all discrepanices. 2.3.10'riteria -The criteria used are from the NUREG-0700 guidelines. These are detailed specifically in Appendix A and generally below: a.All controls are within reach of the 5th percentile female (i.e., the person who is smaller than 95 percent of the female population) (6.1.2.2.b.1). b.The 95th percentile male can reach all controls without stooping (6.1.2.2.b.2). c.All displays are visible from any point at which they must be monitored, based on eye height of both the 5th percentile female and the 95th percentile male.This includes viewing of annunciators from their associated acknowledge. controls (6.1.2.2.e). d.Controls are placed far enough back on the board to avoid inadver-tent actuation (6.1.2.2.d.l). e.All controls and displays involved in a.single task sequence are located to minimize the requirement for operator movement (6.1.2.2.f). f.Consoles are designed to allow sufficient leg and foot room and, if necessary, space for writing (6.1.2.2.g). g.Controls and displays which are frequently used or important are located in the most favorable position with regard to viewing or reaching (6.1.2.5.a Bc 6.1.2.5.b.2). h.CRTs are easy to view with a minimal amount of head movement (6.7.2.>). 2D.10.4 Task Definition/Methodology -There were two subtasks in this survey: 1)evaluation of reach envelopes and visual angles, and 2)measurement of distance criteria.Reach Envelopes and Visual Angles-A silhouette drawing of the board was obtained from Florida Power Bc Light and verified by taking measurements on-site.The required measurements were the distance from floor to benchboard, the distance from benchboard to panel top, and benchboard angle and depth.Using a scale drawing made 101 from board dimensions, angles from eye height (displays) and functional reach from shoulder height (controls) were drawn in for both 5th percentile female and 95th percentile male.The points at which reach envelop lines cross the board and the points at which the angle from line of sight to display face is less than 45 were marked, measured, and converted to full scale dimensions. These points were measured on the board on-site, and then lines were marked on board drawings to indicate the pass/fail area for each checklist item.Horizontal visual angles were assessed by listing controls and displays used together (identified through the task analysis). For each display to be monitored while activating a control, the viewing angle was measured to ensure that it is less than 45 from line of sight.Distance Criteria-In addition to the measurements involved with reach envelopes, a number of board measurements were taken.The distance between controls used in a single task sequence, the'distance of controls from the front of the benchboard, control and display height on vertical boards, height of emergency or frequently used controls and displays, and height of consoles which the operator must be able to see over were measured as part of this survey.Workspace and furniture applications were assessed through measurement of floor-space between furniture, consoles, and walls on-site to ensure that sufficient space has been allocated for the smooth flow of pedestrain traffic.2.3.10.5 Results/Findings -Table 2.3.10-1 summarizes all Human Engineering Discrepancies identified in this survey.In general, no discrepancies deemed significantly debilitating to operations were observed.Most of the Human Engineering Discrepancies deal with the height on the vertical boards for control display mounting, and of these many deal with: 1)low frequency of use components, and/or 2)components deemed insignificant (by operations personnel) to safety issues.Figures 2.3.10-1 and 2.3.10-2 show, for the 5th percentile female and the 95th percentile male population, functional reach and extended functional reach envelopes on the main operating consoles.Figure 2.3.10-3 shows the vertical reach envelope for the vertical panels"A" and"B" in the control rooms.102 TABLE 2.3.10-1 ANTI-IROPOMETRIC SURVEY

Through the evaluation pr ocess generic discrepancies and discrepancies specific to individual communication devices were identified. 2.3.12.2 Review Team Responsibilities -The members of the review team and their responsibilities included: o A human factors specialist to conduct the checklisting, identify discrepancies, and report the survey findings.o A senior human factors scientist to observe the system operation during an emergency drill and identify discrepancies, and to assist in conducting rhyme tests.o Communications system operators (Control Room Operator, Nuclear Plant Supervisor, and Nuclear Watch Engineers) to supply operational information and demonstrate system operations. o Plant technicians (Instrumentation and Control and Electric Depart-ment personnel) to provide and to obtain necessary documentation for completion of this task.2 3.12 3 Criteria-The criteria used to evaluate the various communication syst'ems are based on NUREG-0700 guidelines. Other source books included NUREG/CR-1580 and MIL-STD-1472C. The specific criteria used are contained in Appendix A.2 3.12.4 Task Definition/Methodology -The four procedures used to conduct this survey were: 1)conduct of operator interviews, 2)application of human engineering checklists, 3)observation of emergency drill communications, and 4)conduct of a modified rhyme test.Each is discussed briefly below.Interview-The operator interviews collected in the"Review of Operating Experi-ence" task were reviewed for identification of potential communications discrepancies. The discrepancies were then targeted for verification in the control room and evaluated according the survey criteria.Human Engineering Checklist-The checklist, applied on-site, was concerned with the following issues: maintainability, identification, coding, operation, audibility, usability, and accessibility. Operations personnel were asked specific questions about the different communi-cations systems or were asked to demonstrate the system operation and capabilities. Instrumentation and control engineers and plant technicians were consulted concerning specific system capabilities (e.g., frequency ranges, power supplies, and maintenance). 110 Emergency Drill-A human factors specialist and a senior human factors scientist observed most of the communications systems in real-time operation during two of the emergency drills conducted for the Nuclear Regulatory Commission on March 15th and 16th, 1982.Discrepancies, not apparent during normal operations and operator demon-'strations of system operations, were noted and Human Engineering Discrepancy reports were written.Page System Rhyme Test-A modified rhyme test of the plant page system was conducted spontaneously, based on operator interivew findings.In this subtask, 15 words were spoken over the page system while the plants were in normal operating conditions. The procedure used was, except for talker's list length, the same as described in Section 2 3.7 of this repor t.2.3.12.5 Results and Recommendations -Table 2.3.12-1 summarizes the Human Engineering Discrepancy findings for this survey.In general, the communications system was found to be discrepant in several areas including emergency use, reliability/maintenance, identification/coding, location, and design.Interviews suggested intelligibility problems with the page system.Tables 2.3.12-2 and 2.3.12-3 present the target and test words used in a modified rhyme test.The test was presented and 87 percent correct recognition was made of target words.These findings are considered to demonstrate acceptable intellegibility for the page system.

The sur vey was organized into three parts: o Maintenance of Components with Integral Lighting o Recognition of Visual Display Failure o Spare Parts, Operating Expendables, and Tools.2.3.13.2 Review Team Responsibilities -The following personnel were required to conduct this survey: a human factors engineer, responsible for data collection and analysis and for report preparation; a control room operator, responsible for providing assistance during data collection and analysis;and an instrumentation and control technician, who was responsible for providing information and assistance during data collection and analysis.2.3.13.3 Criteria-Criteria used in this survey are summarized below.o Lamps should be replaceable from the front of the panel (i.e., components should not have to be removed to replace lamp.o Components are not susceptible to shorting out or, in the case of switches, to inadvertent activation du~ing the process of lamp removal or replacement. o Lamp replacement does not subject the operator to a shock hazard.o Covers having legends, color coding, or other component-specific information are physically keyed, or some form of procedural safe-guard is provided to prevent interchanging of covers.o If lamp replacement requires tile removal, there is a way to ensure that the tile is replaced in the correct location.o Dual-bulb or dual-filament light assemblies are used, or bulb-test capability is provided where lamp status cannot be verified.o Component design encourages immediate replacement of burned-out bulbs by providing for rapid and convenient bulb replacement with power on and without hazard to personnel or equipment. o Operator aids are provided if needed for lamp replacement. o When panel instruments such as meters fail or become inoperative, the failure is apparent to the operator (i.e., a failed meter displays an of f-scale indication). o Spare parts, such as indicator lamps, and any tools required by operating personnel are stored in suitable designated space(s)within the control room.o An adequate supply of expendables and spare parts (e.g., fuses, bulbs, ink, recorder charts, printer paper, etc.)are provided.114 o Expendables and spare parts are readily accessible. o All tools required to replenish expendables and install spare parts are available. o There should be adequate storage space for expendables and spare parts.o When different types, sizes, or styles of expendables and spare parts are required, they should be clearly and distinctively marked to avoid confusion or misapplication. o Records should be maintained concerning the status of expendables and spare parts.o The paper, ink, and other expendables required to maintain graphic recorders should be provided and accessible in the control room.o The design of graphic recorders permit quick and easy replenishment of paper and ink.o Fresh replacement batteries for walkie-talkies are accessible and well marked.o The stock of batteries is sufficient to support continuous emergency operation of walkie-talkies. 2.3.13.4 Task Definition/Methodology -The following procedures were followed to conduct this survey.Maintenance of Components with Integral Lighting-All components having inte-gral lighting were identified. Components were organized into generic classes (e.g., legend switches, annunciators, etc.).Next, representative components were selected from each class for evaluation. r Maintenance procedures for lamp replacement for each sample component were reviewed and assessed.Finally, each sample component was evaluated according to the above criteria by using the checklist contained in Appendix A.Whenever necessary, the control room operator or the instrumentation and control technician demonstrated required maintenance activities. Recognition of Visual Display Failure-All visual displays were identified. Visual displays were organized into generic classes (e.g., vertical meters, strip charts etc.).Next, representative displays from each class were selected for evaluation; and display failure modes, indications, etc., were identified by interviewing the control room operators and/or instrumentation and control technician using the interview form contained in Appendix A.Each sample display was evaluated according to the above criteria using the checklist contained in Appendix A.Whenever necessary, the operator or instrumentation 115 and control technician simulated display failure either by disrupting the electrical signal to the display, or some other means, as appropriate. Where it w'as impractical to simulate display failure, display specifications were reviewed to determine display failure response.Spare Parts, Operating Expendables, and Tools-All control room components requiring maintenance by'perations personnel in the form of replacing parts ot replenishing expendables were identified. The components were organized into generic classes (e.g., transilluminated displays, graphic recorders, printers, etc.).Next, for each class of components the associated spare parts and/or operating expendables required for maintenance by operations personnel were identified and described. Information entered on the data form included: o Component-component name or designation (e.g., graphic recorder)o Type-type of spare part or operating expendable (e.g., paper)o Size-cubic dimensions of spare part or expendable, as stored (approximate) o Markings-provisions for labeling or otherwise designating similar items to avoid confusion o Replacement frequency-how often the item must be replaced (e.g., once per week)o Tools-tools required to replace spare part or replenish expendable o Storage location-where in the control room the item is stored.Storage closets, lockers, etc., were also identified and described. Information entered on this form included: o Designation -name assigned to locker, closet, etc.(e.g., Storage Locker$/1)o Location-where in the control room the container is located o Size-internal dimensions of the container o Stored items-items stored in the container o Labeling-bins, compartments, etc.o Frequency of stocking-schedule for restocking container. The control room design was evaluated with respect,to spare parts, operating expendables, and tools by using the checklist contained in Appendix A.In conducting this evaluation it was important to consider the following: o Adequacy of supply-to determine if the supply of expendables and spare parts is adequate, one must determine the frequency with 116 which the spare part or expendable is replaced, as well as the periodicity of stock replacement (i.e., the likelihood that an item will.run out before the shelves are restocked). o Adequacy of space-to determine the adequacy of storage space, one must compute the volume of all items contained in the storage space when the shelves are fully stocked.2.3.13.5 Results/Findings -Table 2.3.13-1 presents the findings of this survey.A summary of the discrepancies noted on Human E:ngineering Discrepancy forms follows: o Display failure is not apparent and no lamp test is provided for simple indicator lights, annunciators, and bright is right o Some meters and strip charts fail on-scale (failur e is not apparent)o Illuminated displays f o Most digital displays have no indication of failure o Storage and labeling is inadequate (absent or inaccurate) o Stored item accessibility is reduced by location and by locked cabinets o Inadequate storage space is provided in, or accessible to, the primary area o No inventory is kept for replenishment of spare parts and expendables o Tools, when provided, do not fit/work.117 TABLE 2.3.13-1 MAINTAINABILITY SURVEY

Each of these steps is discussed in the following sections.2.4.1 Identify/Review Systems, Functions, and Tasks The overall objectives of the System Function and Task Analysis were to identify and organize plant systems, functions, and operator tasks to support subsequent analysis.Subtasks are presented below.2.4.1.1 Identify Systems/Subsystems and System Functions-The objectives of this subtask were to identify and document the plant systems and subsystems which function to operate the reactor plant and generate and distribute power.This included the systems which are represented in the control room.Once the system and subsystem boundaries were identified, the functions which are performed within a subsystem division were identified and documented. The review team consisted of several senior operations personnel, four human factors specialists, and plant instrumentation and control engineers. The team members reviewed the Final Safety Analysis Reports, technical specifica-tions, system descriptions, and other available documentation which describe the reactor plant, power generation, and power distribution systems.A preliminary systems and subsystems list was developed. The team interviewed the operations personnel using the control room photomosaic to verify/revise the system and subsystem divisions which were identified by operations personnel as governing: o Reactor control and instrumentation systems o Safety systems o Feedwater systems o Radwaste systems o Power generation systems o Power distribution systems. The system and subsystem boundaries were identified and verified to reflect'the as-built operational status'and operating practices. The operations personnel were requested to provide, for each subsystem, the functions (or operations) of (and any operational variations associated with it)the subsystem and its components. Operational variations and the conditions under which they are employed were documented as function alternatives. This subtask identified the major plant systems, the functions which they govern, and the subsystems of each major system.The list of system functions underwent task Analysis.2.4.1.2 Develop Task Lists and Response Selection Diagrams-The objectives of this subtask were: 1)to identify and describe motor, perceptual, and information process-ing tasks associated with performance of system and subsystem functions, 2)to identify task sequences and dependencies, and 3)to graphically depict task sequences in Response Selection Diagrams.Through review of standard, abnormal, and emergency operating procedures and interviews with operations personnel; conditions which initiate operator tasks in relation to performing functions (initiators include alarms, routine monitoring, administrative procedures, etc.)were identified. Also identified were the prerequisite conditions for the conduct of functions and the possible variations in the conduct of functions based on presence or absence of prerequisite conditions. By reviewing system operating procedures and interviewing training instructors and operators, individual tasks and decision points involved in function performance were identified. Detailed descriptions of task actions were recorded in the form of Response Selection Diagrams which graphically represent task sequences (see Figure 2 4-1)and identify actions and decisions on the part of the operator.This subtask provided Response Selection Diagrams for each control room function, depicting: o Tasks o Task sequences o Decision points o Task dependencies o Detailed task descriptions. 120 See Figure 2.4.1.-1 for an example of a completed Response Selection Diagram.These Response Selection Diagrams were used as initializing information for detailed analysis of tasks.2.4.1D Identify Event Sequences-The objective of this subtask was to identify event sequences (postulated and experienced transients) to be evaluated in the task analysis.The specific list of event sequences selected for analysis were: o Plant Star tup/Shutdown/Change in Power o Loss of Coolant Accident o Inadequate Core Cooling o Multiple Steam Generator Tube Ruptures o Failure of Auxiliary and Main Feedwater o Failure of High Pressure Reactor Coolant Make Up o Anticipated Transients Without Scrams Loss of offsite power Stuck Power-Operated Relief Valve.2.4.2 Analyze Tasks The basic objective of this System Function and Task Analysis activity was to use the data previously generated to analyze, in detail, operator-allocated tasks for each of the functional sequences selected for analysis.Subtasks are discussed below.2.4.2.1 Analyze Tasks for Each Function-The objectives of this subtask were to analyze task requirements to determine information requirements, control requirements, communication requirements, constraints (time, etc.)on task performance, and decisions and skills/knowledge requirements; and to document task requirements in an accessible, usable format for each task and task sequence.The Response Selection Diagrams were used as a basis to determine detailed task requirements. Detailed task descriptions were analyzed, and for each task the following information was assembled on the Task Analysis/Response Selection Diagram form (See Figure 2.4-1): o The required control action, if applicable (i.e., binary, multi-discrete, or continuous) o The control panel and the display or control code, associated with the task o The display requirement, if applicable (i.e., binary, multi-discrete, or continuous scale)o Parameter ranges and control features necessary for safe plant operation 121 o Skills/knowledge demanded of the operator for task performance o Workload assessment. 2.4.2.2 Develop Spatial-Operational Sequence Diagrams-The objective of this subtask was to present sequential task accomplishment graphically on line drawings of the board layouts.Using Task Analysis/Response Selection Diagram data as input, human factors engineering analysts graphically represented task sequences on panel line drawings (i.e, Spatial-Operational Sequence Diagrams). The procedure for generating Spatial-Operational Sequence Diagrams is as follows: o Assemble line drawings of control board o Code components compatibly with locator codes on Task Analysis/Response Selection Diagram forms o Sequentially link control board instrumentation and displays based on Task Analysis/Response Selection Diagram data o Numerically identify links with task code numbers from Task Analysis/Response Selection Diagrams o Assemble and file Spatial-Operational Sequence Diagrams for subse-quent analysis.The outputs and results of this subtask were Spatial-Operational Sequence Diagrams for each system and subsystem function that identify: o Sequence of control/display use for each function o Frequency of control/display use for each function o Decision and task sequence output failure points.With the knowledge of the original design considerations and the design and human factors trade-offs that were conducted during the plant design phase, the Operations Department performed an integral role in the determination of task requirements. The outputs and results of this subtask were verification or identification of: instrumentation and design requirements for performance of tasks, operator skills and knowledge required for task performance, and workload assessment. 2 4D Yerify Task Performance Capability/Human Engineering Suitabili y This task required further analysis and evaluation of operator-allocated tasks.Subtasks for this task are discussed below.2.4.3.1 Develop Functional Sequence Diagrams-The objective of this subtask was to develop event-based Functional Sequence Diagrams for each event sequence listed in Section 2.4.1.3, above.122 For each event sequence which underwent evaluation, event evolutions (courses)were identified. Functional Sequence Diagrams generated from procedures represent the evolving plant and operational status ensuing after an initiating event.The procedure for developing Functional Sequence Diagrams was as follows: o Identify the previously defined functions and tasks as operationally sequenced in the event o Identify branch points (e.g., diagnostic decisions, etc.)o Timeline operations and tasks to identify event progressions. As Functional Sequence Diagrams were completed, sequential functions were overlaid on control room floor plans and sequentially numbered to identify and analyze control room traffic patterns.The traffic pattern analysis was conducted as follows: o Assemble Functional Sequence Diagrams for each event o Obtain control room floor plan drawings o Sketch-the traffic paths for all operators as required by the event sequence o Identify functional (operational) dependencies, as required.Figure 2.4.3-1 shows a typical Functional Sequence diagram.Figure 2.4.3-2 shows an example of a traffic analysis for the same sequence as presented in Figure 2.4.3-1.Outputs of this subtask are Functional Sequence Diagrams and Traffic Diagram checklists. 2.4D.2 Verify Human Engineering Suitability -The objective of this subtask was to identify man-machine interface problems that may affect task performance, but that may not be evident in component surveys.There are, four major design issues that this subtask addressed: 1)the grouping of components with respect to function, sequence, importance, and frequency-of-use crite-ria;2)control and display integration to ensure that associated controls and displays are not dispersed and that their designs are compatible; 3)component discrimination through enhancements such as demarcation and coding techniques; and 4)panel layouts for consistency of conventions across all panels/units. Specific checklist items regarding the above issues were used as compliance standards. The functional groups were identified in the system and subsystem definition of Task 1.The extent to which functional groups/systems/subsystems define an appropriate functional group with respect to operational requirements was then assessed using the Spatial-Operational Sequence Diagrams.These diagrams identify: 1)the components 123 which are involved in carrying out the subsystem functions, 2)the sequence of component use, and 3)the associated controls and displays for a particular action.In addition, by identifying corresponding functions between control panels arid units, where applicable, location and sequence aspects of the layout consistency were assessed.The checklist criteria items (Appendix A)were applied to each Spatial-Operational Sequence Diagram sheet, and discrepancies were noted.All the Spatial-Operational Sequence Diagrams involving a discrepant component were analyzed with respect to the component's frequency-of-use and importance as determined in Subtask 2.4.4.2.4.4 Validate Control Room Functions The objective of this task was to: 1)estimate the importance and frequency-of-use for equipment, and 2)verify the availability of required instrumention and controls in the contr ol room.2.4.4.1 Develop Frequency and Importance Data-The objective of this subtask was to determine both importance and frequency-of-use data for equipment used in task sequences and selected plant events.Based on: 1)event sequences, 2)normal operating procedures (e.g., startup), and 3)frequency estimates of nonprocedurally-bound operations (e.g., Boron control, annun-ciator responses, etc.), frequency data for equipment use is estimated. The procedure for estimating task frequency was as follows: o Determine an estimate of the frequency of implementation of normal operating procedures (e.g., start-up,-shutdown, change in power)by interviewing senior operations personnel. o Similarily, determine estimates of the frequency of nonprocedurally-bound operations (e.g., boration, volume control, etc.)for each function.o Assemble data on form.o Develop a frequency table for function call-up.o Develop frequency estimation for each instrument/control/ communication requirement based upon estimated frequency-of-function execution. o Sort and store frequency data (see Table 2.4.4.-1). Using a similar technique, indication of equipment importance was identified by weighting the importance of the events shown on frequency data form and then summing the weighted frequencies of equipment uses in function callups.The outputs and results of the subtask were estimated frequency-of-use and importance data for control room equipment by event/operation. 124 TABLE 2.4.4-1 ESTIMATED FREQUENCY OF FUNCTION CALLUP Procedures Frequenc Per Week or Fre uenc Per Month Total Frequency Per Year Rated~lm ortance 1.Startup 2.Shutdown Change in Power n.etc.Nonprocedurally Bound operations (function callups)1.Boration 2.Dilution 3.Cooling Water flow 4.Maintain SI Tk level n.PRZR Temp Maintenance 2.4.4.2 Verification of Equipment Availability -The objectives of this subtask were to identify availability (presence) of required instrumentation and controls in the control room to support performance of system functions, and to identify potentially extraneous control room equipment. The basic criteria for the subtask were: 1)the control and display designs should match the task needs and operators'apabilities, 2)frequently required or important instrumentation or controls should be located in the control room, and 3)infrequently used or unimportant instrumentation should be excluded from the control room inventory. The Task Analysis/Response Selection Diagrams were compared with the Functional Sequence Diagrams to identify the equipment requirements. To identify any deficient areas, the results were then compared to the control room inventory list representing the present equipment capabilities and characteristics. All equipment was evaluated for its A appropriateness to operating requirements using the checklist (see Appendix A).The calculated frequency-of-use data was examined to identify equipment with very high or very low frequency of use.Lists were prepared for infrequently used equipment located in the control room and frequently used equipment located outside of the control room.These lists were also annotated with the assessment of the component's importance to operations as previously developed. The outputs and results of this subtask include: 1)a list of required control room equipment located external to the control room, 2)a list of infrequently used equipment located.in the control room, and 3)a list of discrepancies based on Task Analysis of the equipment requirements and the present control room inventory. 126 3.0 IMPLEMENTATION The objectives of this phase are: 1)preparation of schedules for implementation of selected backfits, and 2)preparation and submittal of the final report.3.1 Develop Backfit Schedules Backfit implementation programs were prepared when Human Engineering Discrep-ancies had been identified, documented, and assessed.Scheduling of Human Engineering Discrepancy backfits will be a function of: o Human engineering discrepancy priority o Engineering and procurement lead time requirements and constraints o Overall plant outage schedules. Schedules will be reviewed and updated as part of the implementation program.3.1.1 Phase 3-Enhancement and Design Solutions The basic procedure to be employed in identifying and selecting enhancements and design solutions is based on Figure 3-1.o Analysis of correction by enha'ncement o Analysis of correction by design alternatives o Assess extent of correction. 3.1.2 Analysis of Correction by Enhancement Discrepancies selected for correction are first examined for possible correction by enhancement (labeling, demarcation, procedure aids, etc.).Each Human Engineering Discrepancy is considered, and, where such correction is possible, the discrepancy is reassessed for its effect on operator'performance. Human Engineering Discrepancies are, as appropriate, re-evaluated via checklisting and Task Analysis until human factors engineering suitability is verified.Where it is determined that correction by enhancement is not possible, the Human Engineering Discrepancy is analyzed for correction-by-design alternatives (see Figure>-2).3.1.3 Analysis af Correction by Design Alternative Identification of design alternatives was achieved by the examination of the Human Engineering Discrepancy, reference to task analysis data, and identification of potential 127 HUMAN ENGINEER)NG DESCREPANCIES TO BE ANALYZED FOR CORRECTION (FROM THE HED SELECTION PROCESS)ANALYSIS FOR CORRECTION BY ENHANCEMENT CORRECT WITH ENHANCEMENT?

The acceptability of design alternatives will be verified by further evaluation using the following: o Functional analysis o Task analysis o Reapplication of appropriate checklists. Figure 3-3 presents the general activity involved in the analysis of correction-by-design alternative. 3.1.4 Extent of Correction For all human engineering programs implemented or Human Engineering Discrep-ancies selected for correction-by-design alternatives, the extent of correction (by enhancement or redesign)will undergo evaluation. To achieve the assessment, a simple reapplication of program guidelines and verification of human factors engineering suitability will be performed. Figure 3-4 is the form used to document extent of correction assessments. In cases where a generic program is consistently implemented (i.e., labeling, color coding, etc.), only a sample of enhancements will be re-evaluated for extent of correction since the results will be the same in all cases.Correction assessments will occur as part of the implementation program since the full extent of enhancements cannot be evaluated until a sample survey of filed implementation is made.130 FIGURE 3-3 PROCESS FOR ANALYZING HED DESIGN AITERNATIVES HED REVIEW SYSTEMS, FUNCTIONS AND TASK ANALYSIS IDENTIFY ALTERNATIVES EVALUATE ALTERNATIVES HED RESOLVED?NO'O AL ERNATIVE YES ENHANCEMENT YES EXHAUSTED SOLUTIONS?POSSIBLE N HEDa NTRODUCED?JUSTIFY 4 DOCUMENT DESIGN FEASIBLE (ENQINEERINQ ?YES IMPLEMENT ENHANCEMENT SOLUTION SCHEDULE IMPLEMENT DOCUMENT PROCESS ERROR 131 HED BACKFIT ASSESSMENT ED NO.FIGURE 34 PROPOSED IMPLEMENTED I ENHANCEMENT a)LABELING I)b)DEMARCATlON b)c)CODING c)d)PROCEDURES d)I)TRAINING o)II DESIGN ALTERNATIVES g)RELOCATION e)b)REPLACEMENT b)c)CONFORMANCE TO PROCESS CONVENTION c)d)RELOCATION OF FUNCTION d)SACKFIT BAG KFIT REASSESSMENT OF PROBABLE ERROR AND DEVIATION 1.EXTENT OF DEVIATION FROM 0700 GUIDELIN ES N/A SOME COMPLETE'.

Florida Power and Light Company feels that the staffing is adequate per the units Technical Specifications. The Natch Engineer and Nuclear Plant Supervisor are also available if their assistance is required.Essex Corporation believes that the control room staffing is adequate as long as Florida Power and Light Company continues the practice of calling in additional operational support during scheduled startup and shutdown.In addition, increasing the control room staff by one more operator would only add to traffic flow, noise and available space problems during normal operation. Florida Power and Light Company intends no action on this item.150 Findin s: (Section 6.1, File No.3)~~~~~HED No.6.1.1.3a)The partially concentric layout allows full view of the control board except: 1.Operator must turn around to see NIS panel (behind operators desk)2.Operator must swivel chair to see the end of vertical panel B~Res onse: (Section 6.1, File No.3)The instrumentation located on the nuclear instrumentation panel is easily accessed by control room operators if desired as well as information provided by instrumentation located on vertical panel B.Due to space limitations Florida Power and Light Company feels the subject displays are functionally placed.Florida Power and Light Company intends no action on this item.151 Findin s: (Section 6.1, File No.5)~~~~~HED No.6.1.1.3f(1)) Walkspace between console and vertical panel A (taking guard rail into consideration is only 36 inches to 38 inches wide instead of the minimum separation of 50 inches recommended, making two person passage difficult. ~Res onse: (Seotion 6.1, Pile No.6)The handrail located on vertical panel A was provided to prevent accidental operation of the control switches located on vertical panel A.There are no controls or displays located on the back section of the subject control console.The passage and panel area in question is a low traffic area and is normally used only by authorized operating personnel. Florida Power and Light Company believes that there is adequate protection provided to preclude the inadvertant operation of control switches on vertical panel A and that there is ample passage space provided for the intended traffic and operator tasks necessary to be performed in the area.Florida Power and Light Company intends no action on this item.152 Findin s: (Section 6.1, File No.8)~~~~~~~HED No.6.1.1.3a)The reactor coolant flow and steam flow displays are not visable from the control room operators desk due to obstructions. ~Res onse: (Section 6.1, File No.8)Control room modification, especially the new design of the operators desk will maximize the control room visability, also the incorporation of Safety Assessment System in conjunction with existing redundent indication minimizes the potential for operator error.item.Florida Power and Light Company intends no further action on this 153 Findin s: (Section 6.1, File No.9)~~~~~~~HED No.6.1.1.3g)They are ungarded openings in the panels, where equipment has been removed.Tools or unwanted objects can be placed into the hole causing wires to short.~Res onse: (Seotion 6.1, Pile No.6)The subject holes observed were due to control panel rework and modifications. When the subject work is completed the associated equipment will be reinstalled and no ungarded opening will be present on the subject control boards.Florida Power and Light Company intends no further action on this item.154 Findin s: (Section 6.1, File No.11)~~~~~~HED No.6.1.2.2(b,c,e)) Controls associated with the chemical volume control system, reactor containment, electrical distribution and steam flow/feedwater flow are not within the extended reach of the 5th percentile female.~Res onse: (Section 6.1, File No.11)The subject controls were verified as being accessible by a 5th percentile female during the field survey.The subject female could reach and easily operate the controls in question without excessive bending or stretching. Florida Power and Light Company intends no action on this item.155 Findin s: (Section 6.1 File No.12)~~~~~HED No.6.1.2.2e 1 The NMC Iodine Particulate display located on the hydrogen recombination panel is located outside of the visual field (75o above the horizontal line of sight).It can not be read with any accuracy without the aid of a foot stool.~Res onse: (Section No.6.1, File No.12)The NMC monitor is an installed spare.In the event the primary and redundant backup iodine particulate monitors are not functional the NMC monitor can be used.A step stool is available in the control room such that operators can read the subject display in the unlikely event it must be used the primary and backup displays are easily accessible and are monitored and maintained by chemistry laboratory personnel. Florida Power and Light Company intends no action on this item.156 Findin s: (Section 6.1, File No.14)~~~~~~HED No.6.1.2.3g)The chart table (computer console)located between Unit 3 and 4 has no knee hole for the operator to sit and examine prints.~Res onse: (Section 6.1, Pile No.14)There are no operations performed at this location which require the operator to be seated.Currently the subject console configuration is being changed, however, due to the size of the control room some compromizes will be made with regard to space usage in areas normally intended as leg/knee hole space.Florida Power and Light Company feels the current panels installed have been best optimized given the design and space constraints and considers this effort satisfactorily completed. 157
Findin s: (Section 6.1, File No.15)~~~~~~~HED No.6.1.2.5a(1)) Some controls on vertical panels SAS 4 (T.P.3), SAS 2 (T.P.3), Electrical (T.P.3), SFG 3 (T.P.4), Electrical (T.P.4)and Reactor Coolant System (T.P.38c4) are located below 34 inches causing the operators to stoop to operate them.These controls have a low frequency of use, low importance and also small deviation from quidelines. ~Res onse: (Seotion 6.1, File No.16)A field inspection was performed and the subject controls identified in the above finding are infrequently used, of low importance and only two to three inches out side the guide line limits i.e.31 inches.Florida Power and Light Company feels the subject controls are functionally grouped and their placement does not present a problem for operator performance since they are clearly labeled and operator use of these controls is infrequent. Florida Power and Light Company intends no action on this item.158 Findin s: (Section 6.1, File No.17)~~~~~~HED No.6.1.2.5b(1)) There are strip charts located on vertical panels SAS 1 (T.P.3), SFG (T.P.4), Turbine Generator (T.P.38c4) and Reactor (T.P.3tSt:4) which are below 41 inches causing the operator to stoop to read them (also causing possible paraQax and readability problems). ~Res onse: (Section 6.1, File No.17i The subject displays are located between 41 inches and 35 inches on the panels identified in the above finding.The chart recorders provide the operators with trend information and plant staff with historical records.These trend recorders monitor low priority items and have a low frequency of use.The subject recorders can be scaned by operators in a standing position and if more detailed information is required they may be read with little inconvience to the operator.Florida Power and Light Company feels that with the limited space available in the subject control room the recorders in question have been optimumly placed based on their importance and frequency of use and intends no further action on this item.159 Findin s: (Section 6.1, File No.19)HED No.6.1.2.8e)Chair seat depth is 21 inches.The recommended depth is 15 to 17 inches.~Res onse: (Seotion 6.1, File No.19)Florida Power and Light Company representatives made a field survey of the chairs located in the Turkey Point Control Room.The chairs used by control room personel are standard office equipment chairs.The subject chairs are not 21 inches deep but 17 to 19 inches deep.No operators questioned had any complaints about back or leg fatigue due to the subject chairs.Florida Power and Light Company believes the subject chairs are adequate and intends no action on this item.160 Findin s: (Section 6.1, File No.25)~~~~~HED No.6.1.4.1a,h) Storage location of protective equipment is partially obscured by relay racks allowing insufficient room to dress.No breathing apparatus is stored there and there is only limitted training in its use.(What is control room habitibility requirements? How about clorine release on site'?)~Res onse:(Section 6.1, File No.25)The emergency locker inventory is correct as identified in the site emergency plan.The subject lockers are controlled storage lockers and are not located in an area which is intended for operator dressout.The personel using the equipment stored in the subject locker will dressout in the control room and office area directly behind it as they are relieved from shift responsibilities to do so.Personel required to use breathing apparatus are trained as part of their radiation training and are periodically requalified as required by existing site procedures. The units'ontrol room meets'll habitibility requirements and is intended to remain a radioactivity clean area.There are no requirements for storage of breathing apparatus in the control room.The units control room meets all habitibility requirements and is intended to remain a radioactivity clean area.There are no requirements for storage of breathing apparatus in the control room.Florida Power and Light Company believes the current emergency equipment storage space and existing training program for the use of the subject equipment is adequate and intends no further action on this item.161 Findin s: (Section 6.1, File No.28)~~~~~~~~HED No.6.1.5.1a)Ambient temperature is in the range of 65 to 75 degrees F maintaining 70 degrees F most of the time at head level.The criteria recommends a range of 73 to 77 degrees F.~Res onse: (Section 6.1, File No.28)The control room operators have the ability to change the control room thermostat setting if desired.Operators maintain the control room temperature at a temperature which they feel is comfortable and is also within equipment requirements. Florida Power and Light Company intends no action on this item.162
Findin s: (Section 6.1, File No.33)~~~~~~~HED No.6.1.5.3f)Rod group counter windows reflect light from above lighting causing glare.~Res onse: (Section 6.1, Pile No.33)The subject counters only provide rod group indication. The operator may position himself over the display while reading it to eliminate the effect of reflected light.The primary rod position indication is provided by the analog indicators located on the vertical panel of the subject bench board which are easily read and also have rod bottom bistable indication. Florida Power and Light Company feels the subject displays are adequate for their intended function and intends no action on this item.163 Findin s: (Section 6.1, File No.34)~~~~~HED No.6.1.5.3h)Reflectance is below guideline values on upper wall and all vertical panels except vertical panel A on Unit No.4.Reflectance is above guidelines on lower wall, floor and white blotters on control room operators desk.~Res onse: (Section 6.1, File No.34)The error assessment associated with this finding is low.In any environment which is illuminated from overhead, no matter what type of diffuser is used, the incedent light levels on the vertical panels will always be lower than the incident light levels on the horizontal sections.Due to the differences in colors i.e.gray panels and white floors and blotters it is only natural that the reflectance will be different. The information presented on the control panels is easily readable and the gray panel provides the operator with a soft background. Florida Power and Light Company believes the control room lighting conditions and ambience is satisfactory and intends no action on this item.164 Findin s: (Section 6.1, File No.39)~~~~~~HED No.6.1.2,3f)The Nuclear Plant Supervisor's phone layout is poor.Phones are difficult to reach from seat.~Res onse: (Seotion 6.1, File No.39)As part of the control room upgrades that were performed to the Turkey Point Unit 3 and 4 control room call directors were added to the Nuclear Plant Supervisors office.Addition of the new telephone hardware has resolved the above finding.Florida Power and Light Company considers this finding closed and intends no further action.165 Findin s: (Section 6.1, File No.40)~~~~~~HED No.6.1.3.le)Bell and Pax phones on each unit have dedicated lines.A call received on Unit 4 for a 3 operator requires the call to be transferred. ~Res onse: (Section 6.1, File No.40)The bell extension number and Pax extension number for the units are the same except for the last digit which designates the proper control room i.e.for Unit No.3 control room the numbers are 233 and 303 respectively and for Unit No.4 the numbers ar e 234 and 304 respectively. Florida Power and Light Company believes the existing phone system and phone number convention is adequate and intends no action on this item.166 Findin s: (Section 6.2, File No.4)~~~~~~~HED No.6.2.1.3C(2)) There is no ringing mechanism tied into the sound powered phones.There is no capability for directly switching the sound powered phone to the paging system so that a desired party can be called to the line.~Res onse: (Section 6.2, File No.4)The sound powered phones are provided so that operation and authorized personnel can perform pre-arranged tasks such as core shuffels, plant maintenance etc.The party/page system is located through out the plant as well as plant utility phones so that plant personnel can page each other and also call specific locations using telephone communciations. Florida Power and Light Company believes the current system is adequate and pr ovide, sufficient flexability to operating personnel. Florida Power and Light Company intends no action on this item.167 Findin: (Section 6.2, File No.9)~~~~~~~HED No.6.2.1.8b,c) No means of clear transmission through face mask or respirators. Dial phones are difficult to use with gloves.~Res onse: (Section 6.2, File No.9)There are no requirements for control room operators to wear protective equipment while operating the plant.The control room meets the current habitability requirements for all accident scenarios and is intended to remain a radilogically clean area during an accident with all support personnel stationed at the technical support center and emergency of fsite facility.In the event of a fire or adverse condition the control room would be evacuated and plant shutdown controlled from outside the control room.item.Florida Power and Light Company intends no further action on this 168 Findin s: 'Section 6.2, File No.11)~~~~~HED No.6.2.l.la)Telephone conversation is colloquial. Several radio messages were received without recall or apparent confirmation. Simultaneous use of bell phone and radio was observed.Listener tried to listen to messages simultaneously instead of asking one party to hold the line.~Res onse: (Seotion 6.2, File No.11)The plant uses accepted terminology. Operation of hand held radios is up to the operator.The portable radios are used by field operators to supplement the installed permanent communciation system.Just as with the permanent communciations system it is the responsibility of the personnel operating the system to ensure that instructions and conversations are understood. Florida Power and Light Company believes the existing communication systems are adequate and intends no further action on the above finding.169 Findin: (Section 6.2, File No.12)~~~~~~~HED No.6.2.1.1b)Control room operator holds finger in left ear to hear conversation on phone.Either the background noise is too high or the signal intensity is to low.~Res onse: (Seotion 6.2, File No.12)The above finding was observed during a period of high construction activity in the control room.The construction activity in the control room is now significantly reduced as control room work has been completed. The control room operator also has the authority to clear the control room or stop any work activity if necessary. Florida Power and Light Company believes there are adequate administrative controls and the communciation equipment is adequate for the intended use and intends no further action with regard to the above finding.170 Findin: (Section 6.2, File No.13)HED No.6.2.1.6a)The security intercom located in the nuclear plant supervisors'ffice has a high level of background noise and emergency messages were interupted by non-vital comm uncations on this single channel corn munciations device.~Res onse: (Section 6.2, File No.13)The security intercom system was upgraded and some stations relocated. As a result of the system rework the background static was eliminated. The security intercom system is for the use of security personel and its use is physically controlled. Contents of communciations and priority of messages is controlled by security personnel. In addition to the hard wire intercom system which is designed to be used at specific control points the security personnel have other communication means available such as radios and telephones. Florida Power and Light Company considers the above finding resolved and intends no further action.171 Findin: (Section 6.2, File No.14)~~~~~~HED No.6.2.2.2a)Bell phone and Pax phone have similar rings.No sound coding is Usede~Res onse: (Seotion 6.2, File No.14)As a result of the scheduled control room upgrades indicating lights were added to the control room operators phones to provide them with visual cues to identify the correct phone.Call directors were added to the Nuclear Plant Supervisors'ffice to consolidate the number of phones.The call director has illuminated pushbuttons to select the desired phone line.Florida Power and Light Company believes the existing communication system provides adequate visual cues for personnel to identify the proper instrument with the incomming call.Florida Power and Light Company intends no further action on the subject finding.172 Findin: (Section 6.3, File No.1)~~~~~~HED No.6.3.1.2a(1)) The radiation monitor located next to the shift supervisors office and copy machine has an illuminated pushbutton for"power on".When the system is energized the voltage surge causes a control room high radiation alarm'concurrent with local high radiation alarms.When control room operators have to replace the lamp associated with the power pushbutton the power to the radiation monitor system is interrupted and a number of false alarms may be generated depending on the number of times it takes the operator to remove the lamp and replace it.~Res onse: (Section 6.3, File No.1)The testing of alarms and/or maintenance work which will cause false alarms are administratively required to be announced over the public address system to notify plant personnel. Any false alarm which is not announced would cause personnel in that area to follow those plant procedures for egress from a contaminated area.In either event plant personnel safety is maintained. Florida Power and Light Company believes the administrative controls which currently exist are adequate and intends no further action on the above finding.173 Findin: (Section 6.3, File No.3)~~~~~~~HED No.6.3.1e2a(l)) Fire alarm system false alarms have been reported by plant personnel during periods of rain.~Res onse: (Seotion 6.3, File No.3)As'result of normal system maintenance the points of water intrusion were identified and sealed.Since the system repairs were complete there have been no false alarms due to water intrusion into the system conduit.Florida Power and Light Company considers the above finding resolved and intends no further action.174 Findin: (Section 6.3, File No.4)~~~~~~~~HED No.6.3.1.2b(1),c(1)) The only way to determine which parameter is out of tolerance on multiple input alarm is verification of board indication or instruct field operation personnel to check equipment and take corrective action where necessary. There is no alarm printout on the computer to give the operator specific information on multiple input alarms.~Res onse: (Section 6.3, File No.4)The plant supervisory annunciator system provides the operator with a quick means of advisory status.The supervisory annunciators located in the control room are functionaQy grouped with controls provided for the control room operators'se. The supervisory annunciators are placed and assigned responsibilities consistant with the plant design and Florida Power and Light Company operating philisophy. The control room operator and Nuclear Plant Supervisor direct field personnel, thus centralizing control of equipment and field personnel. The control room personnel determine proper prioritization of field work tasks based on overall plant conditions and requirements. Florida Power and Light Company believes the existing supervisory annunciator system is sufficent and provides adequate information. Florida Power and Light Company intends no further action on the above finding.175 Findin: (Section 6.3, File No.8)~~~~~~~~~HED No.6.3.1e5a,b) No dedicated, distinctive audible signal exists for cleared alarms.No special flash rate or color coding denotes a cleared annunciator tile.~Ree once: (Section 6.3, File No.8)It is Florida Power and Light Company operating philisophy that annunciator extinguishment is adequate indication of a clearing alarm since there should be no alarms present during normal operating conditions other than some plant permissives and equipment out of service for maintenance. During transient conditions such as plant trip the ring back feature would introduce excessive visual and auditory noise in the control room environment. Clearing the ring back feature would require an additional operator manual control action to acknowledge each clearing alarm thus taxing the control room operator and increasing the risk of operator error during a potentiaQy critical time due to the shear volume of information which must be processed. Under normal and steady state conditions operators take delibrate corrective actions to clear alarms and monitor system status via plant process displays to ensure the alarm condition clears.In addition, Florida Power and Light Company is implementing an annunciator prioritization color coding convention. The prioritization coding will aid the operator in assessing the importance of the alarm and thus reduce the response time to implement corrective action and clear the off normal condition. Florida Power and Light Company intends no further action on the above finding.176 Findin: (Section 6.3, File No.13)~~~~~~~HED No.6.3.3e2b)Flash rate for all annunciator tiles under all alarm conditions is lk flashes per second instead of the recommended 3-5 flashes per second.~Res onse (Seotion 6.3, File No.13)The error assessment associated with the subject finding is very low and Florida Power and Light Company believes that the existing flash rate is adequate for operators to visually identify alarming windows.In addition, operators must identify the alarm prior to acknowledging and locking the subject window in.Florida Power and Light Company believes the existing system is adequate and intends no corrective action.177 ~Findin: (Section 6.3, File No.14)(HED No.6.3.3.2.e) The annunciator windows violate the dark board concept.The annunciators are dim when not in alarm state and bright when in alarm state.Some look bright during normal operation. ~Res onse: (Section 6.3, File No.14)The present dim, normally off annunciator scheme provides the control room operator with a constant status of annunciator lamps condition. Annunciator lamp intensity i.e., dimly lit state can be adjusted by use of a slide resistor.Florida Power and Light Company contends that there is sufficient difference in illumination intensity between dimly lit-no alarm and bright-alarmed state for operators to easily differentiate between the two.Florida Power and Light Company intends no action on the above finding.178 Findin: (Section 6.3, File No.18)~~~~~~~~~HED No.6.3.3.4b)Annunciator windows such as Waste Boron Panel Trouble, Radwaste Trouble, Heat Tracing Trouble and Water Plant Trouble refer the control room operator to another more detailed annunciator panel located outside of the primary operating area.~Res onse: (Section 6.3, File No.18)The subject alarms are supervisory/catagory trouble annunciators. They are provided in the control room because it is the control room operators and Nuclear Plant Supervisors responsibility to direct field personnel. This operating philosophy maintains a centralized control allowing for the proper prioritization of field work tasks based on overall plant conditions and requirements. Florida Power and Light Company believes the existing system design and administratives responsibilities are adequate and intends no action on the above finding. Findin: (Section 6.3, File No.21)~~~~~~~HED No.6.3.4.1b)Acknowledgement of annunciators is not possible from the vertical panels.There is only one alarm acknowledge pushbutton for each unit, in the center of the bench board/console. ~Res onse: (Section 6.3, File No.21)The annunciator tiles will be re-engraved as part of the relabeling/annunciator review effort to improve message readability from the existing control station.The annunciator control station is centrally located on the main control board.Florida Power and Light Company believes that due to the small size of the control room, the increased annunciator tile letter size, the reduction of annuhciator tile verbage and existing functional grouping of associated annunciator tiles that one master annunciator control station in each control room is adequate and intends no further action on the above finding.180 Findin: (Section 6.3, File No.22)~~~~~~~HED No.6.3.4.1d)With the bright equals alarm and dim equals normal operation, it is not clear whether the window is dim or if one of the two bulbs in the window is burnt out.The dual bulb windows do not provide adequate indication of bulb failure.~Res onse: (Section 6.3, Pile No.22)Florida Power and Light Company believes that operators experienced in the Turkey Point Plant control room can differentiate a window with a burned out bulb, a normal state dim and an active alarm state bright.The annunciator windows have redundant bulbs, which are both illuminated, installed behind the subject tiles and extinguishment of one or both of the subject bulbs is easily identified by operation personnel and can be diagnosed with the window in either the normal or alarm state.Florida Power and Light Company believes the system is adequate and intends no action on the above finding.181 Findin: (Section 6.3, File No.23)~~~~~~~~HED No.6.3.4.2b(4),c) The annunciator pushbuttons do not employ shape coding to differentiate between silence and acknowledge. Also the pushbutton design allows operators to defeat the control by placing a quarter in the pushbutton. ~Res onse: (Section 6.3, File No.23)The subject pushbuttons are clearly labeled and there are no other control stations requiring the same convention in the control room.Override of controls are administratively controQed. Florida Power and Light Company believes the subject pushbuttons are correctly arranged and that existing administrative controls preclude any unauthorized defeating of annunciator functions. Florida Power and Light Company intends no action on the above finding.182 Findin: (Section 6.4, File No.11)~~~~~~~~HED No.6.4.2.1)The controls on the radiation monitor operate clockwise to stop, which is opposite to the population stereotype.

Controls are easily adjusted with the required level of precision. Duplication of controls not occur, except for a specific reason.Each control is the type nor-mally anticipated for the operation concerned. 6.1.1.1 b..6.1.1.2&>>6.1.1.2 b..6.1.1.3 d.(2)6.1.3.1 C>>6.4.1.1 a.(2)6.4.1.1 b.(2)6 4.1.1 c.(2)9.10.12.13.14.15.16.Controls and displays are assigned to work stations so as to minimize operator move-ment.Control actuation does not result In inadvertent actuation of an adjacent control.A visual display that is moni-tored during control manipula-tion is located sufficiently close so an operator can read it clearly and without parallax from a normal operating posture.Controls and displays are located so that displays are not obscured during control operation. Displays are not obscured by manipulation. There is no lag time between system condition change and display indication. When there is a time lag between control actuation and ultimate system state, there is an immediate feedback indica-tion of the process and direction or parameter change.Feedback from the display is apparent for any deliberate movement of a control.6.8.1.1 a>>CDI-8 6.8.3.1 b CON-1 6.9.1.1 a.CDI-8 6.9.1.1 b.CDI-10 6.9.1.2 b.(7)CDI-ll 6.9.3.1 c.(1)6.9.3.1 c.(2)6.9.3.2 d. v I'rg v a",~p~~, o>>'o o>>,.i 5:.$,UQe~'wo'ow~~r~m r>>o>>v>>>>oroorr~'r WEFI~IE>>~FE~'~'vr I~r r~E>>tv E,.g.B.o oC'-103 v QCQBQCI~o'=L-MCD C.I.e.b~6 8-1l3 r..s.e.~od QL-JC3~.L.e.b Cf5>d CL-7QD'>Y'N"ufJEO'fl"PUP~'&3 ': j r P'ac evr;Iqe'.b boy clos)ffkD'e.';:, l;'.L-L.h co oa cnoi:a.'fc 9>ovff of h Apie"f, Svof s".~~Q'Iago'5;Jcclinifn 5 o>>~~85+m Non"oo'~noi<oudos JozdnQD.OI roil.usa~ dnsdzsvbanJ ni SIC~" a~Joofno>>Q insoo/bs nf5 fo f ol~>>irlorrQ ei Orris yciqeib Jr ueiv A-ciuqinam lodr QQ pniw54 bdsod yidnsJQJ"r'Juc bs~saoI ci nQJ~bGQ'h Aco'109G'lEQQ n~QG 0/Qio xciiavoclLlol'disv bnc gossip Ii IonoGftffGqo Ikfm1QA 6 A<@'8 I od~s'lukepq a I"sG llgQJq Jb bno eIQT~lloo f oRE eve eynloeib acrid oc b 5h pJ lo",ar QQ~niaub b auoedo, 15JA~y~~Aooo~l I"lollI 9 fE~/o oi t bS"ru edo DOE)9'lE'YS lKDIfQ oC~~AQ" NGIUqllMWQ ~Mao>f5 t$E I FI I>>*It F C V-, EI~E)~I" E>>O,~'Z.L.I..B bent CC>,','I I)Io~LL'.C, C.b C Q,e,cfl n~svId.-d srnid pl.J on ei ce.AT spnefno Aoldibnco ri siege.Ao,"s."QJbni gaia,lib ps I mI9 r.""
