o operations (Section 3.1.3) • Advances in HSI technology (Section 3.1.3) • Complexity (Section 3.1.3) • Disturbance and emergency management (Section 3.1.4) • Design and evaluation of digital systems and software (Section 3.1.5) 18.0-33 Draft Revision 3 – July 2015 e. The applicant should include the following considerations for Human-Performance Issues Related to Design and Operation of SMRs, if pertinent. These topics are described in more detail in Section 6 of NUREG/CR-7126. • Plant mission (Section 6.1) • Roles and responsibilities. This includes Multi-unit Monitoring and Teamwork, and High Levels of Automation (Section 6.2) • Management of normal operations. This includes 10 issues of which the first seven relate to staffing and workload, while the last three relate more to HSI design. (Section 6.4) • Management of off-normal conditions and emergencies. This includes nine issues which the first seven relate to staffing and workload, while the last two relate more to design and analysis. (Section 6.5). 2. Identify Primary Tasks a. For each of the challenging operating conditions, the applicant should identify the primary plant control tasks which operators need to perform to a level of detail to support workload analyses. Additional Information: If available, plant-specific procedures can be used to identify the tasks and task sequences for addressing each operational condition. If the actual detailed operating, off-normal, and emergency procedures are not available there may be vendor procedure guidelines or predecessor plant procedures that can be used. Depending on their level of detail, procedures may only define the tasks that operators perform at a high level. In that case, applicants should conduct task analyses to develop the detail needed to support workload analyses. For example, one cannot determine the workload of a primary task like ‘Start Pump A,’ without breaking it down to more-detailed subtasks not typically described in
