DOE-HDBK-1115-98

APPENDIX B

Applying Problem-Solving Fundamentals-- decision making in uncertain circumstances,

considering alternatives, resolving minor problems, considering preemptive actions, and

applying facility and industry experience to corrective actions.

Conducting Group Presentations or Meetings-- preparing for presentations, directing

and facilitating discussion, and responding to questions.

Case Studies of Selected Industry Operating Experience-- many of the above areas

should be discussed using operating experience. Additionally, some industry operating

experience should be discussed to reinforce generic industry operating principles (e.g.,

Three Mile Island and Chernobyl).

The facility manager should be provided a summary of the seminar as their STAs participate

so that the facility management team is aware of the seminar content and can reinforce the

principles developed during the seminar by their day-to-day interactions with the STAs.
