idance in NUREG-0711 to the central and secondary alarm stations associated with security measures. The staff has historically not reviewed central and secondary alarm station HFE designs as there are currently no regulatory requirements that provide a basis for doing so. The emergency operating facility (EOF) and technical support center (TSC) are also included within the scope of HFE reviews. Again, a graded approach is used. NUREG-0711 provides specific direction on which review criteria are applied to these facilities. NUREG-0696, “Functional Criteria for Emergency Response Facilities,” also includes general HFE criteria for these facilities and the staff has accepted a commitment to implement these criteria as an alternative to the NUREG-0711 criteria. 7. Decommissioning Activities The HFE reviews of the control room design can occur in all phases of control room activities from initial design through operation and subsequent decommissioning. In decommissioning a graded approach is again used as functional requirements decrease. The review focus is on maintaining a highly functional configuration for the controls, alarms and displays associated with the safety functions. In some cases, the controls, displays and alarms may be moved to local control panels or existing local control panels may become more important. In these cases the important human actions associated with these local control stations, and the physical design of the stations can be evaluated using the guidance in NUREG-0711 and NUREG-0700, “Human-System Interface Design Review Guidelines.” The reviews may also include an evaluation of the proposed certified fuel handler training program, and proposed administrative controls and technical specifications. Both reviews should be complete before the licensee submits its request to move into decommissioning status. II. REVIEW INTERFACES Other SRP Chapters interface with this Chapter as follows: 1.
