n this NUREG. NUREG-1852 provides criteria and associated technical bases for evaluating the feasibility and reliability of post-fire operator manual actions implemented in nuclear power plants. It is a reference guide for evaluating the acceptability of manual actions, 18.0-10 Revision 3 – December 2016 submitted by licensees as exemption requests from the requirements of Paragraph III.G.2 of Appendix R, "Fire Protection Program for Nuclear Power Facilities Operating Prior to January 1, 1979," to Title10, Part 50, "Domestic Licensing of Production and Utilization Facilities," of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR Part 50), as a means of achieving and maintaining hot shutdown conditions during and after fire events. The staff may use this information in the review of future post-fire operator manual actions to determine if the feasibility and reliability of the operator manual action were adequately evaluated. IV. REVIEW PROCEDURES In general, reviews should follow these steps: 1. Completion of the pre-acceptance and acceptance reviews in accordance with the applicable Office Instructions: • NRR- LIC-109, “Acceptance Review Procedures.” • NRO-REG-104, “Pre-application Readiness Assessment” • NRO-REG-100, “Acceptance Review Process for Design Certification and Combined License Applications.” 2. Verification that the licensee/applicant is using an acceptable HFE analysis and design processes. Acceptable standards include NUREG-0711, for new designs and modifications, and NUREGs 1764 and 1852, as applicable, for human actions. 3. Verification that the design conforms to HFE standards as described in NUREG-0700. 4. Verification that exemptions from regulations or alternate methods for complying with regulations have specific analyses supporting them (see NRR-LIC-103). 5. Verification that HFE design effectiveness has been demonstrated in a performance based integrated system validation test as described in NUREG-0711. This sequence can be
