The STA report will fall into three categories: /R6
- 1. Non Routine Event Report-These events, as defined in 3.4.3 are not significant, and do not require urgent attention. These may be reported on the STA turnover sheet (Attachment 1) specified in 8.4.1 and will be reviewed in a routine manner.

'lant personnel. These events are identified by the STA Group Lead Engineer. The format and distribution of the report will vary as appropriate to the event. /R6 8.4 Shift Turnover and Relief
- 1. The off-going STA should review applicable plant documents and conditions to determine any off-normal system conditions, non routine events, or trends and shall fill out a Turnover Checklist (Attachment 1). Particular attention should be given to ensuring potential LER's/reportable items are listed on the Turnover Sheets.
- 2. The off-going STA shall verbally pass on to the relieving STA the plant status, emphasizing system off"normal conditions and trends, tests in progress, etc.
- 3. A tour of the plant should be conducted by the relieving STA as soon as practical after assuming the shift in order'to verify correct equipment operating parameters and status.
- 4. Periodically (preferably once per week), all Shift Turnover Sheets shall be reviewed by the STA Grouop Lead Engineer and dispositioned i.n accordance with the Operating Experience Feedback Program AP 0005724. /R6
- 5. In the event of sickness, personal emergency, or other problem at least two (2) hours'R6 which precludes the STA from assuming or completing his scheduled shift, the STA Group Lead Engineer should be informed. A relief should be arranged to fill the STA position'ithin
