ntrol rooms. It recommended that for new control rooms, that additional analyses be conducted to optimize the allocation of functions to humans and machines and further examine advanced control system technologies. Appendix B of NUREG-0700, Revision 0, was provided as one source of guidance regarding these analyses. The guidance of NUREG-0700, Revision 0, was updated in NUREG-0700, Revision 1, to reflect changes in HFE review concerns and HSI technologies. NUREG-0711 addresses the integration of HFE in the design process and was originally developed to support NRC reviews of submittals for certification of new plant designs under 10 CFR Part 52. However, because it updates the guidance of Appendix B of NUREG- 18.0-17 DRAFT Rev. 0 - April 1996 0700, Revision 0, it should be used for HFE reviews of plant designs licensed under both 10 CFR Part 50 and 10 CFR Part 52. Portions of NUREG-0711 should also be used, as appropriate, to support the NRC in its reviews of re-designs and upgrades of current control rooms. Thus, the HFE review process presented in this SRP chapter incorporates guidance from both NUREG-0700, Revision 1, and NUREG-0711.59 Meeting the requirements of 10 CFR 50.34(f), 50.34(f)(2)(iii), and 50.34(g) ensures that plant design, staffing, and operating practices reflect "state-of-the-art human factors principles" thereby providing assurance that plant safety will not be compromised by human error or deficiencies in human interfaces with hardware and software. III. REVIEW PROCEDURES60 Review materials should be submitted by the applicant for each review area. The types of reports that the applicant may submit are described in criterion 3 of Section 1.4.4 of NUREG- 0711. These include: 61 A. Implementation Plan. A report that gives the applicant's proposed methodology for 62 meeting the acceptance criteria of the area of review. B. Analysis Results Report. A report that gives the results of the applicant's efforts in an area of review with respect to the
