rocedures." The HHFB has primary responsibility for the review of general administrative procedures under Section 13.5.1.1, and operating and emergency operating procedures under Section 13.5.2.1. The Quality Assurance and Maintenance Branch (HQMB) has primary responsibility for initial test program procedures under Section 13.5.1.2 and maintenance procedures under Section 13.5.2.2. 4 DRAFT Rev. 0 - April 1996 18.0-4 Chapter 18 contains an area of review titled "Procedure Development," which provides criteria for the review of a program for procedure development. It emphasizes the procedure development process rather than the actual procedures. Thus, these reviews should be conducted in a coordinated manner. Topics from the Chapter 18 area of review that are related to the review of Section 13.5 are cross-referenced. 6. Chapter 15, "Accident Analysis." Many branches have responsibility for the review of Chapter 15, which addresses anticipated operational occurrences and postulated accidents. Information from analyses conducted to address the criteria of Chapter 15 should be incorporated as an input to the HFE design process, including the development of HSI design and test requirements. 7. The Probabilistic Safety Assessment Branch (SPSB) has primary responsibility for the review of probabilistic risk assessments for site-specific safety risks. The Chapter 18 review area "Human Reliability Analysis" addresses the relationship between HFE activities and probabilistic risk analysis/human reliability analysis (PRA/HRA) activities. Thus, these reviews should be conducted in a coordinated manner. II. ACCEPTANCE CRITERIA5 Acceptance is based upon conformance to the review criteria associated with the following areas of review. A.
