Abstract

This paper presents the results of a task analysis of operations technicians at an independent spent fuel storage installation (ISFSI). Supervisors at the ISFSI were interviewed and a preliminary job analysis was used to determine required operator skills. Training, safety, operating documents and checklists were reviewed and task inventory forms were developed with the help of ISFSI supervisors. Operations technicians were then interviewed and the task inventory forms filled out with information on task frequency, difficulty, hazard, time to complete, and error potential. These data were analyzed to determine required operator skills and proficiency levels necessary for safe ISFSI operation. The training and testing for certification necessary to verify the skills and proficiency levels were inferred from the data base and the Morris operation records.
