ral format and content of the different classifications should be described. It is not necessary that each applicant's procedures conform precisely to the same classification since the objective is to assure that procedures will be available to the plant staff to accomplish the functions contained in the listing of Regulatory Guide 1.33. For example, some licensees prefer a classification of abnormal operating procedures whereas others may use off-normal condition procedures. Examples of classifications follow: 1. System Procedures. Procedures that provide instructions for energizing, filling, venting, draining, starting up, shutting down, changing modes of operation, returning to service following testing (if not contained in the applicable testing procedure), and other instructions appropriate for operation of systems important to safety. 2. General Plant Procedures. Procedures that provide instructions for the integrated operations of the plant, e.g., startup, shutting down, shutdown, power operation and load changing, process monitoring, and fuel handling. 3. Off-normal Condition Procedures. Procedures that specify operator actions for restoring an operating variable to its normal controlled value when it departs from its normal range or to restore normal operating conditions following a transient. Such actions are invoked following an operator observation or an annunciator alarm indicating a condition which, if not corrected, could degenerate into a condition requiring action under an emergency operating procedure (EOP). 4. Emergency Operating Procedures. Procedures that direct actions necessary for the operators to mitigate the consequences of transients and accidents that cause plant parameters to exceed reactor protection system or engineered safety features actuation setpoints. 5. Alarm Procedures. Procedures that guide operator actions for responding to plant alarms.8 B. The FSAR should describe how maintenance and other operating procedures are 9
