Operator Action Event Trees for transient and LOCA initiated accident sequences at the Zion 1 PWR have been developed and documented. These trees logically and systematically portray the role of the operator throughout the progression of the accident. The documentation includes a delineation of the required operator response and the key symptoms exhibited by the plant at each state of the tree. These operator action event trees were based on the best-estimate computer analyses performed by EG and G Idaho, Inc. and Los Alamos National Laboratory under the NRC Severe Accident Sequence Analysis (SASA) Program.
