ional awareness. • Nonsafety systems and functions can divert the operator’s attention. 3. Verification that the HFE design conforms to industry standards a. An acceptable standard is described in NUREG-0700. If the Applicant/Licensee has incorporated the HFE design into a simulator or mockup, consideration should be given to conducting observations of the Simulator/mockup. Such observations provide for an efficient way to evaluate the design against the NUREG-0700 standards. b. Verify the interfaces described in Section I have been properly coordinated. The following practices have proven effective for DC reviews: • Contact the lead I&C reviewer and provide the HFE point of contact(s) for supporting the RG 1.97, evaluation and the evaluation of manual actions credited in the diverse actuation system (DAS) design. The RG 1.97 parameters may also be significant inputs into the SPDS and large display panel designs. The DAS manual actions are contained in the Chapter 7 application. The HFE evaluator usually provides a safety evaluation input on these manual actions which is embedded in the Chapter 7 safety evaluation. 18.0-13 Draft Revision 3 – July 2015 • Verify that the “important human actions” provided by the applicant are consistent with those identified in Chapter 15. This is typically done by reviewing the Chapter 15 application. If there are deviations subsequent actions should be coordinated through the Chapter 15 lead reviewer. • If the Chapter 18 submittal provides a separate list of risk important human actions this list should be verified against the list in Chapter 19. Often the Chapter 18 submittal will reference the Chapter 19 list directly in which case no additional interface is necessary. • The Chapter 18 safety evaluation related to the HFE design of the EOF and TSC should be sent to the lead reviewer for Chapter 13.3 for concurrence. 4. Verification that exemptions from regulations or alternative methods for complying with
