ITAAC item or license condition for plants licensed under 10 CFR Part 52 or as a license condition for operating plants that have not modified the plant-referenced simulator in advance of the control room modifications. The complete analysis, which provides time available and time required, the supporting analyses and validation results shall be submitted to the NRC for verification that the credited manual action supports the design assumptions. 3.B. Review Criteria • The responsible reviewers evaluate vendor/licensee/applicant’s submittals for compliance with the following criteria: 18.0-25 Revision 3 – December 2016 General • The ISV is completed as part of the HFE program that is implemented in accordance with NUREG-0711. Simulator • The ISV is conducted using a plant-referenced simulator that meets the functional and fidelity requirements of the adopted ANSI/ANS 3.5, “Nuclear Power Plant Simulators for Use in Operator Training and Examination,” and is capable of real time, high fidelity plant simulation of the event in which the operator manual action is credited. Local Control Panels and Plant Equipment • If operator action is required outside the control room, these actions are validated on the actual equipment or an accurate reproduction or mockup of the equipment. • Communication with the control room, travel time, harsh environment impacts, lighting, security measures, and supporting equipment are addressed within the validation scenario. The event analysis may contain other variables that should be considered e.g., loss of power, access restrictions). These variables and their impact on operator performance are addressed. Personnel • Participants in the validation are the plant personnel who would normally perform the actions. • Actions to be performed by licensed operators are validated using individuals holding a current operating license for the unit on which the actions are to be credited. For vendor/applicants using the 10 CFR
