5. Assessment and Implementation.

Implementation of this program plan meets all the objectives of NUREG-0700, .".nd closely follows the guidance of that document.

1.2 Task Phasing The review is conducted as delineated in four phases, as follows:

Phase 2 - Control Room Review. This represents the period in which data

~

collection, reduction and analysis is conducted, resulting in Human Engineering Discrepancy (HED) reports.

Phase 3. - Enhancement

• Desi n Solutions. Discrepancies are collated, alternate enhancements and design solutions are generated and the results are considered in trade-offs.

phase S ~Re ortin . Results of detailed control room design review with plans for modifications are published.

Figure 1 shows, in general, the phases and task flow for conducting the detailed control room design review. A brief discussion of the activities conducted in each phase of the review follows this figure.

1.2.1 Phase 1 Project Planning This document delineates the project planning. NUREG-0700 and its guidelines form the basis of this document.

1.2.2 Phase 2 Control Room Review The Control Room review phase is divided into seven tasks as foDows:

1. Review of operating experience

2. Assemble Control Room documentation

3. Review of system functions and task analysis

4. Control Room surveys

~

5. Verify task performance capability

~

6. Validate Control Room functions

7. Assess discrepancies 1.2.2.1 Review of Operating Experience This task is composed of two subt&sks:

1) conduct operator interviews, and 2) review of plant operational experience through

'Licensing Event Reports, technical specification modifications, etc. This review task is conducted in accordance with the guidelines of NUREG-0700.

1.2.2.2 Assemble Control Room Documentation In this task, a Control Room data base is established to support the subsequent evaluation. A library is established with Control Room related documentation (Technical Specifications, drawings, etc.),

Control Room components are photoMocumented, and a 1/3 scale photo-mosaic is constructed. The library and photoMocumentation are centrally located to support the

,effort. In addition to the library and photographic documentations, a Control Room inventory of components is developed, identifying for each component, its location, system relationships, functions, and characteristics. Inventory data is filed for subsequent use.

1.2.2.3 Review of System Functions and Task Analysis System functions,and tasks are identified and evaluated in this task. A four step procedure is employed:

o Identification of systems and subsystems by review of plant documen-tation o Identification of event sequences to undergo task analysis, these are identified by:

NUREGs-0737, 0660, 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 P

Task analysis data is an input for the verification of task performance capability and the validation of Control Room functions (see par agraphs 1.2.2.5 and 1.2.2.6). The results/products of this task are:

Response selection diagrams

2. Task analysis of functional sequences

3. Task analysis of event sequences 4, Spatial-operational sequence diagrams of task sequences

5. Traffic pattern diagr ams.

1.2.2.4 Conduct Control Room Surveys Fourteen surveys will be performed to develop the detailed assessment of the Control Room. Surveys require the collection of data using preconstructed checklists, interview forms, and direct measurements of Control Room parameters such as noise. levels, light levels etc. The guidance for the survey criteria is found in NUREG-0700. For each survey, a draft report (summarizing HEDs) is prepared for subsequent inclusion into a final report. The surveys to be conducted are:

o Noise 'direct measurements of noise levels are taken and compared to individual checklists items.

o Lighting measur ements ar e taken under various ambient conditions (e.g., emergency lighting) and compared to individual checklist items.

o Control Room Environment assessments are made by direct measurement of the parameters listed below and comparison of the data to the NUREG-0700 guidelines Temperature Humidity Ventilation Workspace arrangement Document organization, use and storage Control Room access o Design conventions evaluations of survey for the conventions listed below. Data to be 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 to be 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.

o Anthropometrics analysis of reach and visual access to Control Room components given physical configuration of boards, panels, work space layout, etc. Data to be compared to checklist item requirements.

o Force/Torque when indicated by operator observation, force/torque infor mation for control types are 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.).

1.2.2.5 Verify Task Performance Capability This evaluation task involves two

.subtasks: verification of instrument/control availability, and verification of Human Engineering suitability. The first, verification of availability, is conducted using the task analysis and Control Room inventory. In general, tasks associated with Control are examined in terms of appropriate instrumentation in the Control Room (ie.,

Room'unctions task equipment demands vs. actual equipment presence in the Control Room). Once this

. is accomplished, estimates of the frequency-of-use for all instrumentation are generated

.for:

o Startup o Shutdown o Change of reactor power.

Estimations of non~rocedurally bound operations (e.g., boration, etc.) are generated via operator interviews. Also, task sequences required in selected event sequences are estimated as to frequency of occurrence in 'the event sequences. Comparing both frequency and requirements data to the inventory, identification is made of: 1) the r

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. Based on the above, HEDs are identified and documented.

The second subtask, verification of suitability, involves 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,etc. The NUREGW?00 guidelines serve as the source document for evaluation criteria.

1.2.2.6 Validate Control Room Functions This involves analysis of workload and distribution of workload for operators for specific task and event sequences, and overall Control Room traffic. The means of the analysis are: 1) task timelines, 2) traffic analysis, and 3) walk- and talk-through simulation of task sequences. Checklists will be used to aid in the validation of Control Room functions.

1.2.2.7 Assess Discrepancies Assessment is discussed in Section 5.0 of this plan.

In general, the process'is similar to that discussed in NUREG-0801 (draft, published in October, 1981), and is as follows:

Assess extent of deviation from NUREG-0700 guidelines

2. Estimate increase in human error for the discrepancy

3. Determine if discrepant component(s) perform safety functions 4, Determine if errors in using discrepant component(s) could lead to viohtion of tech specs or lead to unsafe operation 5.. Assignment of category and priority, based on the above.

1.2.3 Phase 3 Enhancement and Design Solutions The logic path to be employed in identifying and selecting enhancements and design solutions is based on NUREG-0700, Exhibit 4-2, as shown in Pigure 2.

1. Analysis of correction by enhancement

2. Analysis of correction by design alternatives

3. Assess extent of correction.

1.2.3.1 Analysis of Correction by Enhancement Discrepancies are first examined for possible correction by enhancement (labeling, demarcation, procedure aids, etc.).

Each HED is considered and where such correction is possible, the discrepancy is reassessed for its effect on operator performance. As appropriate, HEDs are reevaluated via checklisting and task analysis until Human Engineering suitability is verified. Where it is determined that corr ection by enhancement is not possible, the discrepancy is analyzed for correction by design alternatives.'

1.2.3.2 Analysis of Correction'y Design Alternative Identification of design alternatives will be achieved by the examination of the HED, reference to task analysis data, and identification of potential constraints (e.g., availability of equipment, Reg. Guide 1.75, etc.). The acceptability of design alternatives will be verified by further evaluation using the foDowing:

o Functional analysis o Task analysis o Reapplication of survey guidelines.

1.2.3.3 Assess Extent of Correction During the Human Engineering meetings, enhancement and/or redesign corrections will be selected, assessed, and noted in Section G "Disposition" of the HED report shown in Figure 5.

1.2.4 Phase 4 Reporting Two requirements of this phase are 1) preparation of schedules for implementation of selected backfits, and 2) preparation and submittal of the final report.

1.2.4.1 Develop Backfit Schedules Backfit schedules will be proposed as HEDs are identified, documented, and assessed. Scheduling of HED backfits will be a function of:

o HED category and 'priority o Engineering and procurement lead time requir ements and constraints o Overall plant outage schedules.

Schedules willbe reviewed and updated as part of the implementation program.

1.2.4.2 Develop Final Report The detailed control room design review report will closely follow the outline recommended in Section 5.2 of NUREG-0700.

Specifically, the final report will address:

o The detailed control room design review phases o The technical activities

- 'eview of operating experience Assembly of Control Room documentation System/function/task analysis

'Conduct of Control Room surveys Verification of task performance capability Validation of Control Room functions o Method of assessment of discrepancies o Method of identification and selection of enhancement and design solutions o Review results of HEDs, HED assessment, and the selected enhancement and design solutions willbe organized into the following groups:

Survey findings (annunciator, communications, etc.)

Task analysis findings (panel/workspace)

Human engineering suitability and validation of functions findings (Control Room traffic, workload distribution, man/machine functional allocations) o Improvements to be made Enhancements/justification/extent of correction Design alternative/justification/extent of correction o Schedule of implementation.

4.0 TECHNICAL APPROACH 4.1 Introduction The technical approach (review procedures) to be employed is discussed in this section. Task plans are provided which describe the activities for the following tasks:

Review of operating experience Assembly of Control Room documentation Review of system functions and task analysis 0 Surveys (one task plan for each) noise lighting Control Room environment design conventions controls displa'ys computers emergency garments labeling annunciators anthr opometrics force/torque communications maintainability Verification of task per formance capability Validation of Control Room functions o Assessment of discr epancies.

4.2 Task Plan Content Each task plan addresses:

variables under analysis.

f i Review Team The personnel required to conduct the task.

>>f Criteria Generally the survey guidelines appropriate to the task at hand.

Task Definition Steps or procedures to be followed to conduct the task.

E ui ment R uirements 'List of any equipment required to conduct the task.

In ut and Data Forms The data collection forms required by the tasks.

Out uts and Results Task results. Often these are HEDs,'ut may be data

/

which is drawn upon by subsequent tasks'(e.g., task analysis).

5.0 ASSESSMENT AND IMPLEMENTATION 5.1 Assessment When a HED has been identified, it is assessed for error inducing potential and system 'consequences of induced errors. The assessment determines the scheduling of backfits as a function of the potential consquences of the HED. The HED's will be corrected by enhancement (color coding, labeling, etc.) or design alternatives. The HED correction may affect the originial backfit schedule depending on the availability of materials and extent of engineering redesign. The proposed corrections are assessed to ensur e that HED'a have been adequately addresses.

The basic assessment process is divided into four steps as follows:

o Assess extent of deviation from survey guidelines o Assess HED inpact in error'occurrence o Assess potential consequences of error occurrence o Assign HED scheduling priority.

A diagram for assessment is presented in Figure 7.

5.1.1 Assess Extent of Deviation from Survey Guidelines The step requires that a more or less subjective assessment of .the extent of discrepancy from survey guidelines be made with regard to the Control Room. For example, symbol/background contrast. might be 4096, rather. than 5096, or, only small amounts of parallax may exist in a display. A judgement is made based on the content of the guideline being applied and the Control Room component under assessment. Extent of deviation is then subjectively scaled from 1 (some deviation) to 5 (complete deviation).

There is also a catagory N/A (not applicable) for HEDs which are not a part of NUREG-0700 (discrepancies from other documents such as military standards, HFE Texts, etc).

Extent of deviation judgements are not directly used to assess priority or scheduling of backfits, but relate to assessment of increase operational error potentials. It is possible

to have little deviation from the survey guidelines and high error assessments, and vise versa, but the two will probably be positively correlated. Extent of deviation will not be used to assess errors induced by HEDs.

5'.1.2 Assess HED Impact on Error Occurrence Given that no control system can be designed to be operationally error-free, assessment here is to estimate HED impact on hypothetical (unknown) baseline error rates of control room componentai e.g., will additional errors bo inducod by discrepancies from the guidelines? Estimates of HED impact on error occurrence are qualitatively arrived at by consideration of the following:

o Body physiology Fatigue/physical stress Discomfort Injury Anthropometry o Sensory/perceptual perfoi mance Vision Au'dition Propioception Touch o Information processing Overload Confusion Recall P at tern 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

' I, 5.1.3 Assess Potential Consequences of Error Occurrence Review Team technical staff and operations representatives evaluate system consequences of hypothesized operational errors. Four determinations are required:

1. Does the HED relate to plant safety functions?

2. Does the HED relate to plant functions required to mitigate the consequences of an accident?

3. Could an error lead to unsafe operations or plant conditions?

4. Could an error lead to violations of Technical Specifications?

Each of these require a yes/no type response. The logic diagram on Figure 7 (HED Priority) shows how these data are integrated to assign categories and priorities to HEDs.

Table 1 shows the breakdown of category and priority as a function of error assessment and consequences of error.

Note that Category I HEDs are those which have been noted from documented operational errors. All Category I,HEDs are deemed to increase error potential, but consequences must still be assigned to determine ultimate scheduling priority.

Assessment of error occurrence is estimated for the following:

1. Overall operator performance. is/is not.degraded by HED impact on body physiology?

. 2. HED does/does not degrade sensory performance?

3. Information processing capability is/is not exceeded via the HED?

4; . The HED does/does not induce direct error due to principles of learning?

5. Task difficulty and reliability is/is not affected by the HED.

Based on the above, a subjective error assessment is generated on a 5- point scale, a one meaning a low.probability of induced errors is expected as a result of the HED, a five indicating a high probability level of additional errors being induced.

5.1.4 Assign HED Priority Scheduling Priority for scheduling of backfit purposes is per the following:

Priority A Prompt First outage, given availability of materials and engineering load time.

Priority B Near Term Second refueling outage given availability of parts and engineering lead time.

Priority C - Long Term At any time.

5.2 Implementation Implementation is discussed in three parts, as follows:

Analysis for Correction by Enhancement/assess correction 0 Analysis of Design Alternatives/assess correction

-Scheduling and Implementation each of these is discussed, in turn, below.

5.2.1 Analysis for Correction by Enhancement In this task each HED is considered for correction by enhancement.. Many, e.g.,

labeling HEDs, are immediately and fully corrected. For other HEDs, enhancement solutions may only partially ameliorate the discrepancy..Figure 8, shows the process for

~

identifying HEDs to be corrected by enhancement (color coding, labeling, demarcation,

'tc,)

5.2.2 Analysis for Correction by Design Alternatives This task requires that each HED selected for analysis of design alternatives undergo Task and Functions analysis review. The basic procedure employed is. shown in Figure 9. Note that where design alternatives do not exist, HEDs are again considered for correction by enhancement, since some mitigation of the error inducement may be achievable.

5.2.3 ScheduIing and Implementation HEDs selected for correction by enhancement will undergo ir<<pie.aentation scheduling. Longer term corrections will be scheduled and the schedule reported to the NRC for teview and approvaL Figure 10 shows the form which. will document the results of the HED reassessment of alternative enhancements and/or design solutions. Reassessments will be performed where original corrections could not be implemented due to conflicts in required

.operational function, availability of qualified equipment, and/or space requirements;
