ating Experience Review The objective of this review is to verify that the applicant has identified and analyzed HFE-related problems and issues encountered in previous designs that are similar to the proposed design under review so that these problems and issues may be avoided in the development of the new design. This review should also ensure that positive features of previous designs are retained. The operating experience review (OER) should be conducted in accordance with the review criteria of Sections 3.4.1 and 3.4.2 of NUREG- 0711 and Section 3.1.2 of Part 1 of NUREG-0700, Revision 1, and should satisfy requirements of 10 CFR 50.34(f)(3)(i). The scope of this review should address the following:9 DRAFT Rev. 0 - April 1996 18.0-6 1. Predecessor/Related Plants and Systems. The review should include information pertaining to human factors issues related to the predecessor plant(s) or highly similar plants and plant systems, as described in criterion 1 of Section 3.4.1 of NUREG-0711. 10 2. Recognized Industry HFE Issues. The review should address recognized HFE issues of the nuclear power industry. These should include, but not be limited to, the following categories, which are discussed in Appendix B of NUREG-071111 and Higgins (1995): unresolved safety issue/generic safety issues, TMI issues, NRC generic letters and information notices, Office for Analysis and Evaluation of Operational Data studies, low power and shutdown issues, and operating plant event reports. 3. Related HSI Technology. The review should address the operating experience of related HSI technology, as described in criterion 3 of Section 3.4.1 of NUREG- 0711. For example, if the use of touch screen interfaces is planned, then HFE 12 issues associated with their use should be reviewed. 4. Operator Interviews/Surveys. Operator interviews/surveys should be conducted to determine operating experience for related plants and systems, as described in criterion 4 of Section 3.4.1 of NUREG-0711 and
