such as control room modernization, should.be reviewed using the guidance contained in Section II.A of this chapter. However, 18.0-9 Rev. I - February, 2004 since the extent of such modifications can vary, the staffs review should be tailored using the additional guidance presented in this section. B.1 HFE Program Management The goals of the HFE program should address the need to consider the effects that the modification may have on the performance of personnel (as identified in NUREG-071 1). The review should address the application's plan with respect to the following: * Planning the installation to minimize disruptions to work- * Coordinating training and procedure modifications with implementing the modification to verify that both accurately reflect the characteristics of the modification * Conducting training to maximize personnel's knowledge of and skill with the new design before its implementation B.2 Operating Experience Review The operating experience of the plant being modified should be reviewed as part of the OER. B.3 Functional Requirements Analysis and Function Allocation Functional requirements analysis and function analysis should consider the following (as identified in NUREG-0711): * Functional requirements analyses for modifications that are likely to change existing safety functions, introduce new.functions for systems supporting safety functions, or involve unclear functional requirements that may be important to safety. * Function allocation analyses for modifications that are likely to change the allocation between personnel and plant systems of functions important to safety. * A change in an operator's role due to a modification should be examined within the context of its effects on the operator's overall responsibilities. B.4 Task Analysis The following considerations should be addressed in the review of plant modifications that are likely to affect human actions (HAs) previously identified as risk-important, cause existing HAs to
