This information collection is for the
specified licensees to use the NRCdeveloped Scenario Authoring,
Characterization and Debriefing
Application (SACADA) software for
their operator simulator training. The
SACADA system was developed to
collect licensed operator simulator
training data to inform human reliability
analysis (HRA) and to facilitate operator
simulator training. The SACADA
software can be used to author the
simulation scenarios, facilitate the post
simulation debriefing on crew
performance, guide performance
analysis, and generate various types of
reports. The information entered into
the SACADA database can be used to
improve simulator training effectiveness
and HRA. The South Texas Project
Nuclear Operating Company (STPNOC)
has used the software for its operator

Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 189 / Monday, October 2, 2017 / Notices
simulator training since 2012 and has
high regard on the software. The NRC
welcomes more licensees to partner
with the NRC to use the software. The
licensees’ participation in the
information collection is voluntary. In
the partnership, the NRC provides the
SACADA software license, training, and
technical support to the participating
licensees, and the participating
licensees grant NRC access to analyze
the data to improve the NRC’s HRA
techniques. An agreement will be
developed to specify the details.
To participate in the information
collection, the licensee will notify the
NRC contact that it is interested in
evaluating the software. Then the NRC
will provide additional information
including an onsite briefing. If the
licensee thinks the SACADA software
could be beneficial, the NRC will
provide a training session, the software
license, and technical support for the
licensee to pilot the use of the software
in its simulator training. After the pilot
study, the licensee will decide on
whether or not to partner with the NRC
on the information collection. Either
party can terminate the agreement at
any time.
Dated at Rockville, Maryland, this 26th day
of September 2017.

Nuclear Regulatory
Commission.
ACTION: Policy revision; issuance.
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory
Commission (NRC) is issuing a revision
to its policy statement on reporting
abnormal occurrences (AOs) to
Congress. The revised policy statement
adds more specific criteria for
determining those incidents and events
that the Commission considers
significant from the standpoint of public
health or safety for reporting to Congress
and the public, and makes the policy
consistent with recent changes to NRC
regulations. The revised AO criteria
contain more discrete reporting
thresholds, making them easier to
implement and ensuring more
consistent reporting.
DATES: This revision to the policy
statement is effective on October 2,
2017.
