g., in-the-loop control of plant systems, assuming manual control from automatic control systems, and carrying out complicated control actions) − obtaining feedback (e.g., feedback of the success of actions taken) − Range of Human Interactions – The sample should include the range of interactions among plant personnel, including tasks performed independently by individual crew members, and those undertaken by a team of crew members. These interactions among plant personnel should include interactions between: − main control room operators (e.g., operations, shift turnover walkdowns) − main control room operators with auxiliary operators and other plant personnel performing tasks locally (e.g., maintenance or instrumentation and control (I&C) technicians, chemistry technicians) − main control room operators and the TSC and the EOF − main control room operators with plant management, the NRC, and other outside organizations c. The applicant should include the following situational factors or error-forcing contexts known to challenge human performance. It also should include situations specifically designed to create human errors to assess the system’s error tolerance, and the ability of personnel to recover from any errors, should these occur, for example: • Fatigue Situations – To the extent possible, the sample should include situations that may be associated with fatigue, such as work on backshifts and tasks performed frequently with repetitive actions, such as repeated inputs to a touch screen during plant operations or pulling rods. d. The applicant should include the following considerations with respect to emerging technology in NPPs, as described in more detail in Section 3 of NUREG/CR-6947. • Automation (Section 3.1.1) • Specific changes to operations (Section 3.1.3) • Advances in HSI technology (Section 3.1.3) • Complexity (Section 3.1.3) • Disturbance and emergency management (Section 3.1.4) • Design and evaluation of digital
