tions. Instructors should ensure that trainees understand the philosophy behind the approach of the EOPs. Consistent with 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix B, Criterion III, “Design Control,” and Criterion XVI, “Corrective Action,” long-term monitoring should have a formal mechanism for feedback such that results, including problems identified by the operating staff during operations or training, are brought to the attention of the reference plant operations department management and the design organization. The vendor/licensee/applicant may integrate, or coordinate, their long-term monitoring with existing programs for monitoring operator performance, such as periodic operator surveys or the licensed operator training program. 4.B. Review Criteria The responsible reviewers evaluate vendor/licensee/applicant’s submittals for compliance with the following criteria: • A long-term monitoring strategy is developed and documented by the vendor/licensee/applicant that is capable of tracking performance of the manual operator actions to demonstrate that performance continues to support the associated defense-in-depth analysis. • The program is structured such that corrective actions are formal, effective, and timely. Rationale Guidance for HFE analyses that would be suitable to support defense-in-depth analyses is described in NUREG-0711. The NRC staff has a high degree of confidence that a vendor/licensee/applicant using the NUREG-0711 model will provide adequate HSI design to allow operators to accomplish the manual actions required by their designs. However, the typical HFE Program per NUREG-0711 does not conclude until just before fuel load or startup. This Appendix provides guidance for a methodology that provides early feedback in the design and regulatory review process and allows the vendor/licensee/applicant to move forward with relative confidence that credited manual operator actions will be demonstrated as both feasible and reliable in the ISV. Ultimately,
