RESPONSIBILITY The Emergency Director (Shift Supervisor, until properly relieved by a designated alternate) has the responsibility and authority for the performance of the actions prescribed in this procedure.
D.
ACTION LEVELS/PRECAUTIONS/GUIDANCE 1.0 ACTION LEVELS 1.1 An off-normal event has occurred.
1.2 An action step in a plant operating or emergency operating procedure refers to this procedure for classification of the indicated plant condition.
2.0 PRECAUTIONS 2.1 The Emergency Director must review all applicable EALs to ensure that the event is properly classified since a given INDICATOR may be associated with more than one CRITERION. A particular INDICATOR omitted from the fission product barrier matrix may be addressed as an event-based EAL in one of the other tabs.
Event-based EALs may escalate to the fission product barrier matrix. The Emergency Director may need to consider related events (e.g., fire and explosion) or the possible consequences of the event (e.g., fire in an MCC resulting in loss of AC) in classifying an event.
2.2 Continued surveillance and assessment of plant conditions are necessary to ensure that the emergency classification is appropriately revised as conditions change, or as more definitive information is obtained.
2.3 If there is any doubt with regard to assessment of a particular EAL, the EAL Basis Document (i.e., Chapter 4 of the EPP) entry for that EAL can be reviewed.
Classifications shall be consistent with the fundamental definitions of the four emergency classifications (tabulated in Tab 4.7).
2.4 The Emergency Director shall take whatever mitigative or restoration actions are necessary to protect public health and safety. The Emergency Director shall not reject courses of action solely on the basis that the action would result in escalation of the emergency classification.
Revision 1 2
EPP/Implementing Procedure EPP/I-la Recognition and Classification of Emergency Conditions Unit 1 3.0 GUIDANCE 3.1 Structure of the EALs 3.1.1 There are two types of Emergency Action Levels included in this procedure:
3.1.1.1 Barrier-Based EALs:
These EALs address conditions that represent potential losses, or losses, of one or more of the Fuel Clad, RCS, or Containment fission product barriers.
INDICATORs of these conditions include CRITICAL SAFETY FUNCTION status, fundamental indications such as subcooling or reactor vessel water level, or auxiliary indications such as containment radiation monitor readings. Classifications are based on the number of barriers lost or potentially lost.
3.1.1.2 Event-Based EALs:
These EALs address discrete conditions or events that are generally precursors to fission product barrier degradation, or are otherwise degradations in the level of safety of the plant. Events may be external (e.g., severe weather, earthquakes, loss of offsite power) internal (e.g., fires, explosions, instrumentation failure) or may involve radioactivity releases.
3.1.2 The EALs are grouped by recognition category as follows:
Tab 1 Fission Product Barrier Matrix Tab 2 System Degradation Tab 3 Loss of Power Tab 4 Hazards and ED Judgement Tab 5 Destructive Phenomena Tab 6 Shutdown Systems Degradation Tab 7 Radiological 3.1.3 Each of the EAL tabs includes one or more columns that address one initiating condition (e.g., fires). Each column provides EALs for each of the four emergency classifications, as applicable. A notation adjacent to each EAL identifies the plant operating mode(s) for which the EAL is applicable.
Revision 1 3
EPP/Implementing Procedure EPP/I-la Recognition and Classification of Emergency Conditions Unit 1 3.1.4 Each EAL is comprised of a CRITERION, printed in bold type, and one or more INDICATORs.
The purpose of each is as follows:
3.1.4.1 CRITERION: identifies the emergency condition and any numeric values which define that condition (i.e., the basis of the declaration) All classifications are based on an assessment (i.e., determination that the condition is VALID) by the Emergency Director that the CRITERION has been met or exceeded. Implicit in this protocol is the necessity for these assessments to be completed within 15 minutes (unless otherwise noted) of indications being available to Control Room operators that an Emergency Action Level (EAL) has been exceeded.
3.1.4.2 INDICATOR:
is available via instrumentation, calculations, procedure Entry (AOPs, EOPs, etc.),
operator knowledge of plant conditions (pressure, temperatures, etc.) in the Control Room, or reports received from plant personnel, whichever is most limiting, or other evidence that the associated criterion may be exceeded.
Upon occurrence of one or more indicators, the Emergency Director performs an assessment against the criterion.
Depending on the particular condition, this assessment may be as simple as a review of the criterion, an instrument channel check, or a detailed calculation as in the case of a radioactivity release.
3.1.4.3 Inherent in this protocol is the necessity for these assessments to be completed within 15 minutes (unless otherwise noted) of sufficient indications being available to Control Room operators that an Emergency Action Level (EAL) has been exceeded.
3.1.4.4 The INDICATORs were selected with the objective of providing unambiguous guidance to assist with assessment of the CRITERION.
There may be other INDICATORs not envisioned by the writers of this procedure that, in the judgment of the Emergency Director, correspond to the CRITERION. In these cases, the Emergency Director should base the declaration on engineering judgment, using the supplied INDICATORs as examples of the severity of the condition.
Revision 1 4
EPP/Implementing Procedure EPP/I-la Recognition and Classification of Emergency Conditions Unit 1 3.2 Common Plant Conditions 3.2.1 IF an event occurs such that both reactor units are affected, e.g.,
tornado, toxic gas offsite, etc., THEN the senior Nuclear Shift Supervisor shall make the appropriate classification and assume the role of Emergency Director.
3.2.2 IF the common plant condition results in a higher emergency classification at one reactor unit, THEN the Nuclear Shift Supervisor from that unit shall make the appropriate classification and assume the role of Emergency Director.
3.3 Mode Applicability 3.3.1 The plant operating mode that existed at the time that the event occurred, prior to any protective system or operator action initiated in response to the condition, is compared to the mode applicability of the EALs.
3.3.2 IF an event occurs, and a lower or higher plant operating mode is reached before the classification can be made, THEN the classification shall be based on the mode that existed at the time that the event occurred.
3.3.3 The fission product barrier matrix is applicable only to those events that occur at mode 4 or higher. An event that occurs in modes 5 or 6 shall not be classified using the fission product barrier matrix, even if mode 4 is entered due to subsequent heatup.
In these cases, Tab 6, Shutdown Systems Degradation, shall be used for classification.
3.4 Transient Events 3.4.1 For some EALs the existence of the event, without regard to duration, is sufficient to warrant classification. In these cases, the appropriate emergency classification is declared as soon as the Emergency Director assessment concludes that the CRITERION is met.
3.4.2 Some EALs specify a duration of occurrence. For these EALs the classification is made when Emergency Director assessment concludes that the specified duration is exceeded or will be exceeded (i.e., condition can not be reasonably rectified before the duration elapses), whichever is sooner.
Revision 1 5
EPP/Implementing Procedure EPP/J-la Recognition and Classification of Emergency Conditions Unit 1 3.4.3 IF a plant condition meeting an EAL CRITERION is rectified before the specified duration time is exceeded, THEN the event is NOT classified by that EAL. Lower severity EALs, if any, shall be reviewed for possible applicability in these cases.
3.4.4 IF a plant condition meeting an EAL CRITERION is NOT classified at the time of occurrence, but is identified well after the condition has occurred (e.g., as a result of routine log or record review) AND the condition no longer exists, THEN an emergency shall NOT be declared. However, reporting under 10 CFR 50.72 may be required. Such a condition could occur, for example, if a followup evaluation of an abnormal condition uncovers evidence that the condition was more severe than earlier believed.
3.4.5 IF an emergency classification was warranted, but the plant condition has been rectified (such that the CRITERION is no longer met) prior to declaration and notification, THEN the following guidance applies:
3.4.5.1 For transient events that would have been declared as UNUSUAL
- EVENTS, no emergency is declared.
However, the event shall be reported to those local, state, and Federal agencies designated to receive the initial notification form. These agencies shall be told that the UNUSUAL EVENT condition was rectified upon detection and no emergency is being declared.
3.4.5.2 For transient events that would have been declared as an ALERT, SITE AREA EMERGENCY, or GENERAL EMERGENCY, the event shall be declared and the emergency response organization activated.
The EAL CRITERIA for these events has been set at a threshold that warrants declaration even if the initiating condition has been rectified.
Termination can occur when the criteria of EPP/IP-6.2, Termination of the Emergency and Recovery can be satisified.
3.5 Declaration Timing and Assessment Emergency conditions shall be classified as soon as the Emergency Director assessment of the INDICATORs shows that the CRITERION is met. IF the EAL specifies a duration, THEN the event shall be declared as soon as it is determined that the condition cannot be corrected within the specified period.
In either case, the assessment time starts from the indications being available to Control Room operators that an Emergency Action Level (EAL) has been exceeded.
Revision 1 6
EPP/Implementing Procedure EPP/I-la Recognition and Classification of Emergency Conditions Unit 1 3.5.1 The assessment time is limited to 15 minutes, except as follows:
3.5.1.1 IF the EAL specifies a duration (e.g., release exceeds 2x TIS for one hour), THEN the assessment time runs concurrently with the required duration AND is the same length (e.g., in this example, one hour).
3.5.1.2 The assessment time and any required duration are NOT additive.
3.5.2 IF the assessment cannot be completed within the specified period, THEN the event must be declared on the basis of INDICATORs that cannot be reasonably discounted.
3.6 Bases 3.6.1 Chapter 4 of the BVPS EPP provides the bases for these EALs.
The bases can be used for guidance to assist the Emergency Director in classifying events for which the classification is not immediately apparent.
3.7 Defined Terms 3.7.1 In the EALs, words written in bold uppercase letters are defined terms having specific meanings as they relate to this procedure.
Definitions of these terms are provided on the reverse side of most pages in the EAL section of this procedure. Such terms shall be interpreted as provided in the definitions.

ALERT, UNUSUAL EVENT, GENERAL EMERGENCY, SIT AREA EMERGENCY: See EAL 4.7 BOMB: A fused explosive device (See EXPLOSION)
CIVIL DISTURBANCE: A group of ten (10) or more persons violent protesting station operations or activities at the site.
Each CRITERION identifies the emergency condition and any numer values which define that condition (Le., the basis of the declaration). A classifications are based on an assessment (i.e., determination that ti condition is VALID) by the Emergency Director that the CRITERION ha been met or exceeded.
Implicit in this protocol is the necessity for thes assessments to be completed within 15 minutes (unless otherwise noted) c indications being available to Control Room operators that an Emergenc Action Level (EAL) has been exceeded.
CRITICAL SAFETY FUNCTION (CSFs):
A plant safety functior required to prevent significant release of core radioactivity to tht environment.
There are six CSFs:
Subcriticality, Core Cooling, Hea
- Sink, Vessel Integrity (Pressurized Thermal Shock),
Integrity (Containment) and Inventory (RCS).
EXCLUSION AREA BOUNDARY (EAB): A boundary surrounding the BVPS units beyond which the postulated UFSAR accidents will not result in population doses exceeding the criteria of 10 CFR Part 100.
Refer tc Figure 7-A.
EXPLOSION. A rapid, violent, unconfined combustion, or a catastrophic failure of pressurized equipment that imparts energy of sufficient force to potentially damage permanent structures, systems or components EXTORTION:
An attempt to cause an action at the station by threat of force.
FAULTED: (Steam Generator) Existence of secondary side leakage (i.e.,
steam or feed line rupture) that results in an uncontrolled decrease in steam generator pressure or the steam generator being completely depressurized.
FIRE: Combustion characterized by heat and light. Sources of smoke such as slipping drive belts or overheated electrical equipment do not constitute fires. Observation of flame is preferred but is NOT required if large quantities of smoke and heat are observed.
HOSTAGE:
A person or object held as leverage against the station to ensure that demands will be met by the station INDICATOR(s):
Are available via instrumentation, calculations, procedure Entry (AOPs, EOPs, etc.), operator knowledge of plant conditions (pressure, temperatures, etc.) in the Control Room, or reports received from plant personnel, whichever is most limiting, or other evidence that the associated criterion may be exceeded. Inherent in this protocol is the necessity for these assessments to be completed with 15 minutes (unless otherwise noted) of sufficient indications being available to Control Room Operators that an Emergency Action Level (EAL) has been exceeded.
INEFFECTIVE: The specified restoration action(s) does not result in a reduction in the level of severity of the RED PATH condition within 15 minutes from identification of the Core Cooling CSF Status Tree RED PATH TERMINUS.
A reduction in the level of severity is an improvement in the applicable parameters (e.g., increasing trend in reactor vessel water level (RVLIS full range) and/or decreasing trend on core thermocouple temperatures).
INTRUSION/INTRUDER:
Suspected hostile individual present in a protected area without authorization.
LOWER EXPLOSIVE LIMIT (LEL): Concentration level below which combustible gases will not explode due to ignition.
LCO, LIMITING CONDITION FOR OPERATION:
as specified in the BVPS Technical Specifications, the minimum functional performance level for equipment required for safe shutdown.
E ORANGE PATH: Monitoring of one or more CSFs by the EOPs which indicates that a CSF is under severe challenge.
PROJECTILE:
An object ejected, thrown, or launched towards a plant structure. The source of the projectile may be onsite or offsite. Pote for damage is sufficient to cause concern regarding the integrity of.
affected structure or the operability or reliability of safety equipment
" contained therein.
The PROTECTED AREA encompasses all owner controlled areas within the security perimeter fence as shown on Figure 4-A.
RED PATH:
Monitoring of one or more CSFs by the EOPs which indicates that a CSF is under extreme challenge.
RUPTURED:
(Steam Generator) Existence of primary to secondary leakage of a magnitude sufficient to require or cause a reactor trip and safety injection.
SABOTAGE:
Deliberate damage, mis-alignment, or mis-operation of plant equipment with the intent to render the equipment unavailable.
SIGNIFICANT TRANSIENT:
An UNPLANNED event involving one or more of the following: (1) Automatic turbine runback >25% thermal reactor power, (2) Electrical load rejection >25% full electrical load; (3)
Reactor Trip; (4) Safety Injection System Activation The SITE PERIMETER encompasses all owner controlled areas in the immediate site environs as shown on Figure 4-A.
STRIKE ACTION:
A work stoppage within the PROTECTED AREA by a body of workers to enforce compliance with demands made on the BVPS or one of its vendors.
The STRIKE ACTION must threaten to interrupt normal plant operations to be considered.
TOXIC GAS:
A gas that is dangerous to life or health by reason of inhalation or skin contact (e.g., chlorine).
UNPLANNED:
An event or action is UNPLANNED if it is not t, expected result of normal operations, testing, or maintenance. Events that result in corrective or mitigative actions being taken in accordance with abnormal or emergency procedures are UNPLANNED.
With specific regard to radioactivity releases, a release of radioactivity is UNPLANNED if it has not been authorized by a Radioactive Waste Discharge Authorization (RWDA).
Implicit in this definition are unintentional releases, unmonitored releases, or planned releases that exceed a condition specified on the RWDA (e.g., alarm setpoints.
minimum dilution flow, minimum release times, maximum release rates.
and/or discharge of incorrect tank).
VALID: An indication or report or condition is considered to be VALID when it is conclusively verified by (I) an instrument channel check, or (2) indications on related or redundant indicators, or (3) by direct observation by plant personnel, such that doubt related to the indicator's operability.
the condition's existence, or the report's accuracy is removed. Implicit in this definition is the need for timely assessment (i.e.. within 15 minutes).
VISIBLE DAMAGE: Damage to equipment or structure that is readily observable without measurements, testing, or analyses.

DEFINITIONS/ACRONYMS ALERT, UNUSUAL EVENT, GENERAL EMERGENCY, SITE ORANGE PATH: Monitoring of one or more CSFs by the EOPs which AREA EMERGENCY: See EAL 4.7 indicates that a CSF is under severe challenge.
BOMB: A fused explosive device (See EXPLOSION)
CIVIL DISTURBANCE: A group of ten (10) or more persons violently protesting station operations or activities at the site.
Each CRITERION identifies the emergency condition and any numeric values which define that condition (i.e., the basis of the declaration). All classifications are based on an assessment (i.e., determination that the condition is VALID) by the Emergency Director that the CRITERION has been met or exceeded.
Implicit in this protocol is the necessity for these assessments to be completed within 15 minutes (unless otherwise noted) of indications being available to Control Room operators that an Emergency Action Level (EAL) has been exceeded.
CRITICAL SAFETY FUNCTION (CSFs):
A plant safety function required to prevent significant release of core radioactivity to the environment.
There are six CSFs:
Subcriticality, Core Cooling, Heat
- Sink, Vessel Integrity (Pressurized Thermal Shock),
Integrity (Containment) and Inventory (RCS).
EXCLUSION AREA BOUNDARY (EAB): A boundary surrounding the BVPS units beyond which the postulated UFSAR accidents will not result in population doses exceeding the criteria of 10 CFR Part 100. Refer to Figure 7-A.
EXPLOSION: A rapid, violent, unconfined combustion, or a catastrophic failure of pressurized equipment that imparts energy of sufficient force to potentially damage permanent structures, systems or components EXTORTION: An attempt to cause an action at the station by threat of force.
FAULTED: (Steam Generator) Existence of secondary side leakage (i.e.,
steam or feed line rupture) that results in an uncontrolled decrease in steam generator pressure or the steam generator being completely depressurized.
FIRE: Combustion characterized by heat and light. Sources of smoke such as slipping drive belts or overheated electrical equipment do not constitute fires. Observation of flame is preferred but is NOT required if large quantities of smoke and heat are observed.
HOSTAGE:
A person or object held as leverage against the station to ensure that demands will be met by the station INDICATOR(s):
Are available via instrumentation, calculations, procedure Entry (AOPs, EOPs, etc.), operator knowledge of plant conditions (pressure, temperatures, etc.) in the Control Room, or reports received from plant personnel, whichever is most limiting, or other evidence that the associated criterion may be exceeded.
Inherent in this protocol is the necessity for these assessments to be completed with 15 minutes (unless otherwise noted) of sufficient indications being available to Control Room Operators that an Emergency Action Level (EAL) has been exceeded.
INEFFECTIVE: The specified restoration action(s) does not result in a reduction in the level of severity of the RED PATH condition within 15 minutes from identification of the Core Cooling CSF Status Tree RED PATH TERMINUS.
A reduction in the level of severity is an improvement in the applicable parameters (e.g., increasing trend in reactor vessel water level (RVLIS full range) and/or decreasing trend on core thermocouple temperatures).
INTRUSION/INTRUDER:
Suspected hostile individual present in a protected area without authorization.
LOWER EXPLOSIVE LIMIT (LEL): Concentration level below which combustible gases will not explode due to ignition.
LCO, LIMITING CONDITION FOR OPERATION:
as specified in the BVPS Technical Specifications, the minimum functional performance level for equipment required for safe shutdown.
PROJECTILE:
An object ejected, thrown, or launched towards a plant structure. The source of the projectile may be onsite or offsite. PoteW for damage is sufficient to cause concern regarding the integrity ot affected structure or the operability or reliability of safety equipment contained therein.
The PROTECTED AREA encompasses all owner controlled areas within the security perimeter fence as shown on Figure 4-A.
RED PATH:
Monitoring of one or more CSFs by the EOPs which indicates that a CSF is under extreme challenge.
RUPTURED:
(Steam Generator) Existence of primary to secondary leakage of a magnitude sufficient to require or cause a reactor trip and safety injection.
SABOTAGE:
Deliberate damage, mis-alignment, or mis-operation of plant equipment with the intent to render the equipment unavailable.
SIGNIFICANT TRANSIENT: An UNPLANNED event involving one or more of the following: (1) Automatic turbine runback >25% thermal reactor power, (2) Electrical load rejection >25% full electrical load; (3)
Reactor Trip; (4) Safety Injection System Activation The SITE PERIMETER encompasses all owner contronled areas in the immediate site environs as shown on Figure 4-A.
STRIKE ACTION: A work stoppage within the PROTECTED AREA by a body of workers to enforce compliance with demands made on the BVPS or one of its vendors.
The STRIKE ACTION must threaten to interrupt normal plant operations to be considered.
TOXIC GAS:
A gas that is dangerous to life or health by reason of inhalation or skin contact (e.g., chlorine).
UNPLANNED:
An event or action is UNPLANNED if it is not

A group of ten (10) or more persons violenl protesting station operations or activities at the site.
Each CRITERION identifies the emergency condition and any nume:
values which define that condition (i.e., the basis of the declaration). A classifications are based on an assessment (i.e., determination that th condition is VALID) by the Emergency Director that the CRITERION h; been met or exceeded. Implicit in this protocol is the necessity for the:
assessments to be completed within 15 minutes (unless otherwise noted) o indications being available to Control Room operators that an Emergenc Action Level (EAL) has been exceeded.
CRITICAL SAFETY FUNCTION (CSFs):
A plant safety functio required to prevent significant release of core radioactivity to th environment.
There are six CSFs:
Subcriticality, Core Cooling, He:
- Sink, Vessel Integrity (Pressurized Thermal Shock),
Integrit (Containment) and Inventory (RCS).
EXCLUSION AREA BOUNDARY (EAB): A boundary surrounding the BVPS units beyond which the postulated UFSAR accidents will not resul in population doses exceeding the criteria of 10 CFR Part 100. Refer to Figure 7-A.
EXPLOSION: A rapid, violent, unconfined combustion, or a catastrophic failure of pressurized equipment that imparts energy of sufficient force tc potentially damage permanent structures, systems or components EXTORTION: An attempt to cause an action at the station by threat ol force.
FAULTED: (Steam Generator) Existence of secondary side leakage (i.e.,
steam or feed line rupture) that results in an uncontrolled decrease in steam generator pressure or the steam generator being completely depressurized.
FIRE: Combustion characterized by heat and light.
Sources of smoke such as slipping drive belts or overheated electrical equipment do not constitute fires. Observation of flame is preferred but is NOT required if large quantities of smoke and heat are observed.
HOSTAGE:
A person or object held as leverage against the station to ensure that demands will be met by the station INDICATOR(s):

DEFINITIONS/ACRONYMS ALERT, UNUSUAL
- EVENT, GENERAL EMERGENCY, SITE AREA EMERGENCY: See EAL 4.7 BOMB: A fused explosive device (See EXPLOSION)
CIVIL DISTURBANCE: A group of ten (10) or more persons violently protesting station operations or activities at the site.
Each CRITERION identifies the emergency condition and any numeric values which define that condition (i.e., the basis of the declaration). All classifications are based on an assessment (i.e., determination that the condition is VALID) by the Emergency Director that the CRITERION has been met or exceeded.
Implicit in this protocol is the necessity for these assessments to be completed within 15 minutes (unless otherwise noted) of indications being available to Control Room operators that an Emergency Action Level (EAL) has been exceeded.
CRITICAL SAFETY FUNCTION (CSFs):
A plant safety function required to prevent significant release of core radioactivity to the environment.
There are six CSFs:
Subcriticality, Core Cooling, Heat
- Sink, Vessel Integrity (Pressurized Thermal Shock),
Integrity (Containment) and Inventory (RCS).
EXCLUSION AREA BOUNDARY (EAB): A bounTdary surrounding the BVPS units beyond which the postulated UFSAR accidents will not result in population doses exceeding the criteria of 10 CFR Part 100. Refer to Figure 7-A.
EXPLOSION: A rapid, violent, unconfined combustion, or a catastrophic failure of pressurized equipment that imparts energy of sufficient force to potentially damage permanent structures, systems or components EXTORTION:
An attempt to cause an action at the station by threat of force.
FAULTED: (Steam Generator) Existence of secondary side leakage (i.e.,
steam or feed line rupture) that results in an uncontrolled decrease in steam generator pressure or the steam generator being completely depressurized.
FIRE: Combustion characterized by heat and light. Sources of smoke such as slipping drive belts or overheated electrical equipment do not constitute fires. Observation of flame is preferred but is NOT required if large quantities of smoke and heat are observed.
HOSTAGE:
A person or object held as leverage against the station to ensure that demands will be met by the station INDICATOR(s):
Are available via instrumentation, calculations, procedure Entry (AOPs, EOPs, etc.), operator knowledge of plant conditions (pressure, temperatures, etc.) in the Control Room, or reports received from plant personnel, whichever is most limiting, or other evidence that the associated criterion may be exceeded.
Inherent in this protocol is the necessity for these assessments to be completed with 15 minutes (unless otherwise noted) of sufficient indications being available to Control Room Operators that an Emergency Action Level (EAL) has been exceeded.
INEFFECTIVE: The specified restoration action(s) does not result in a reduction in the level of severity of the RED PATH condition within 15 minutes from identification of the Core Cooling CSF Status Tree RED PATH TERMINUS.
A reduction in the level of severity is an improvement in the applicable parameters (e.g., increasing trend in reactor vessel water level (RVLIS full range) and/or decreasing trend on core thermocouple temperatures).
INTRUSION/INTRUDER:
Suspected hostile individual present in a protected area without authorization.
LOWER EXPLOSIVE LIMIT (LEL): Concentration level below which combustible gases will not explode due to ignition.
LCO, LIMITING CONDITION FOR OPERATION:

ORANGE PATH: Monitoring of one or more CSFs by the EOPs which indicates that a CSF is under severe challenge.
PROJECTILE: An object ejected, thrown, or launched towards
"*'t structure. The source of the projectile may be onsite or offsite. PL.Fia for damage is sufficient to cause concern regarding the integrity of the affected structure or the operability or reliability of safety equipment contained therein.
The PROTECTED AREA encompasses all owner controlled areas within the security perimeter fence as shown on Figure 4-A.
RED PATH:
Monitoring of one or more CSFs by the EOPs which indicates that a CSF is under extreme challenge.
RUPTURED:
(Steam Generator) Existence of primary to secondary leakage of a magnitude sufficient to require or cause a reactor trip and safety injection.
SABOTAGE:
Deliberate damage, mis-alignment, or mis-operation of plant equipment with the intent to render the equipment unavailable.
SIGNIFICANT TRANSIENT: An UNPLANNED event involving one or more of the following: (1) Automatic turbine runback >25% thermal reactor power, (2) Electrical load rejection >25% full electrical load; (3)
Reactor Trip; (4) Safety Injection System Activation The SITE PERIMETER encompasses all owner controlled areas in the immediate site environs as shown on Figure 4-A.
STRIKE ACTION: A work stoppage within the PROTECTED AREA by a body of workers to enforce compliance with demands made on the BVPS or one of its vendors. The STRIKE ACTION must threaten to interrupt normal plant operations to be considered.
TOXIC GAS:
A gas that is dangerous to life or health by reason of inhalation or skin contact (e.g., chlorine).

RESPONSIBILITY The Emergency Director (Shift Supervisor, until properly relieved by a designated alternate) has the responsibility and authority for the performance of the actions prescribed in this procedure.
D.
ACTION LEVELSIPRECAUTIONS/GUIDANCE 1.0 ACTION LEVELS 1.1 An off-normal event has occurred.
1.2 An action step in a plant operating or emergency operating procedure refers to this procedure for classification of the indicated plant condition.
2.0 PRECAUTIONS 2.1 The Emergency Director must review all applicable EALs to ensure that the event is properly classified since a given INDICATOR may be associated with more than one CRITERION. A particular INDICATOR omitted from the fission product barrier matrix may be addressed as an event-based EAL in one of the other tabs. Event-based EALs may escalate to the fission product barrier matrix. The Emergency Director may need to consider related events (e.g., fire and explosion) or the possible consequences of the event (e.g., fire in an MCC resulting in loss of AC) in classifying an event.
2.2 Continued surveillance and assessment of plant conditions are necessary to ensure that the emergency classification is appropriately revised as conditions change, or as more definitive information is obtained.
2.3 If there is any doubt with regard to assessment of a particular EAL, the EAL Basis Document (i.e., Chapter 4 of the EPP) entry for that EAL can be reviewed.
Classifications shall be consistent with the fundamental definitions of the four emergency classifications (tabulated in Tab 4.7).
2.4 The Emergency Director shall take whatever mitigative or restoration actions are necessary to protect public health and safety. The Emergency Director shall not reject courses of action solely on the basis that the action would result in escalation of the emergency classification.
Revision 1 2
EPP/Implementing Procedure EPP/I-lb Recognition and Classification of Emergency Conditions Unit 2 3.0 GUIDANCE 3.1 Structure of the EALs 3.1.1 There are two types of Emergency Action Levels included in this procedure:
3.1.1.1 Barrier-Based EALs:
These EALs address conditions that represent potential losses, or losses, of one or more of the Fuel Clad, RCS, or Containment fission product barriers.
INDICATORs of these conditions include CRITICAL SAFETY FUNCTION status, fundamental indications such as subcooling or reactor vessel water level, or auxiliary indications such as containment radiation monitor readings. Classifications are based on the number of barriers lost or potentially lost.
3.1.1.2 Event-Based EALs:
These EALs address discrete conditions or events that are generally precursors to fission product barrier degradation, or are otherwise degradations in the level of safety of the plant. Events may be external (e.g., severe weather, earthquakes, loss of offsite power) internal (e.g., fires, explosions, instrumentation failure) or may involve radioactivity releases.
3.1.2 The EALs are grouped by recognition category as follows:
Tab 1 Fission Product Barrier Matrix Tab 2 System Degradation Tab 3 Loss of Power Tab 4 Hazards and ED Judgement Tab 5 Destructive Phenomena Tab 6 Shutdown Systems Degradation Tab 7 Radiological 3.1.3 Each of the EAL tabs includes one or more columns that address one initiating condition (e.g., fires). Each column provides EALs for each of the four emergency classifications, as applicable. A notation adjacent to each EAL identifies the plant operating mode(s) for which the EAL is applicable.
Revision 1 3
EPP/Implementing Procedure EPP/I-lb Recognition and Classification of Emergency Conditions Unit 2 3.1.4 Each EAL is comprised of a CRITERION, printed in bold type, and one or more INDICATORs. The purpose of each is as follows:
3.1.4.1 CRITERION: identifies the emergency condition and any numeric values which define that condition (i.e., the basis of the declaration) All classifications are based on an assessment (i.e., determination that the condition is VALID) by the Emergency Director that the CRITERION has been met or exceeded. Implicit in this protocol is the necessity for these assessments to be completed within 15 minutes (unless otherwise noted) of indications being available to Control Room operators that an Emergency Action Level (EAL) has been exceeded.
3.1.4.2 INDICATOR:
is available via instrumentation, calculations, procedure Entry (AOPs, EOPs, etc.),
operator knowledge of plant conditions (pressure, temperatures, etc.) in the Control Room, or reports received from plant personnel, whichever is most limiting, or other evidence that the associated criterion may be exceeded.
Upon occurrence of one or more indicators, the Emergency Director performs an assessment against the criterion.
Depending on the particular condition, this assessment may be as simple as a review of the criterion, an instrument channel check, or a detailed calculation as in the case of a radioactivity release.
3.1.4.3 Inherent in this protocol is the necessity for these assessments to be completed within 15 minutes (unless otherwise noted) of sufficient indications being available to Control Room operators that an Emergency Action Level (EAL) has been exceeded.
3.1.4.4 The INDICATORs were selected with the objective of providing unambiguous guidance to assist with assessment of the CRITERION.
There may be other INDICATORs not envisioned by the writers of this procedure that, in the judgment of the Emergency Director, correspond to the CRITERION. In these cases, the Emergency Director should base the declaration on engineering judgment, using the supplied INDICATORs as examples of the severity of the condition.

EPP/Implementing Procedure EPP/I-lb Recognition and Classification of Emergency Conditions Unit 2 3.2 Common Plant Conditions 3.2.1 IF an event occurs such that both reactor units are affected, e.g.,
tornado, toxic gas offsite, etc., THEN the senior Nuclear Shift Supervisor shall make the appropriate classification and assume the role of Emergency Director.
3.2.2 IF the common plant condition results in a higher emergency classification at one reactor unit, THEN the Nuclear Shift Supervisor from that unit shall make the appropriate classification and assume the role of Emergency Director.
3.3 Mode Applicability 3.3.1 The plant operating mode that existed at the time that the event occurred, prior to any protective system or operator action initiated in response to the condition, is compared to the mode applicability of the EALs.
3.3.2 IF an event occurs, and a lower or higher plant operating mode is reached before the classification can be made, THEN the classification shall be based on the mode that existed at the time that the event occurred.
3.3.3 The fission product barrier matrix is applicable only to those events that occur at mode 4 or higher. An event that occurs in modes 5 or 6 shall not be classified using the fission product barrier matrix, even if mode 4 is entered due to subsequent heatup. In these cases, Tab 6, Shutdown Systems Degradation, shall be used for classification.
3.4 Transient Events 3.4.1 For some EALs the existence of the event, without regard to duration, is sufficient to warrant classification. In these cases, the appropriate emergency classification is declared as soon as the Emergency Director assessment concludes that the CRITERION is met.
3.4.2 Some EALs specify a duration of occurrence. For these EALs the classification is made when Emergency Director assessment concludes that the specified duration is exceeded or will be exceeded (i.e., condition can not be reasonably rectified before the duration elapses), whichever is sooner.
Revision 1 5
EPP/Implementing Procedure EPPII-lb Recognition and Classification of Emergency Conditions Unit 2 3.4.3 IF a plant condition meeting an EAL CRITERION is rectified before the specified duration time is exceeded, THEN the event is NOT classified by that EAL. Lower severity EALs, if any, shall be reviewed for possible applicability in these cases.
3.4.4 IF a plant condition meeting an EAL CRITERION is NOT classified at the time of occurrence, but is identified well after the condition has occurred (e.g., as a result of routine log or record review) AND the condition no longer exists, THEN an emergency shall NOT be declared. However, reporting under 10 CFR 50.72 may be required. Such a condition could occur, for example, if a followup evaluation of an abnormal condition uncovers evidence that the condition was more severe than earlier believed.
3.4.5 IF an emergency classification was warranted, but the plant condition has been rectified (such that the CRITERION is no longer met) prior to declaration and notification, THEN the following guidance applies:
3.4.5.1 For transient events that would have been declared as UNUSUAL EVENTS, no emergency is declared.
However, the event shall be reported to those local, state, and Federal agencies designated to receive the initial notification form. These agencies shall be told that the UNUSUAL EVENT condition was rectified upon detection and no emergency is being declared.
3.4.5.2 For transient events that would have been declared as an ALERT, SITE AREA EMERGENCY, or GENERAL EMERGENCY, the event shall be declared and the emergency response organization activated.
The EAL CRITERIA for these events has been set at a threshold that warrants declaration even if the initiating condition has been rectified.
Termination can occur when the criteria of EPP/IP-6.2, Termination of the Emergency and Recovery can be satisified.
Revision 1 6
EPP/Implementing Procedure EPP/I-lb Recognition and Classification of Emergency Conditions Unit 2 3.5 Declaration Timing and Assessment Emergency conditions shall be classified as soon as the Emergency Director assessment of the INDICATORs shows that the CRITERION is met. IF the EAL specifies a duration, THEN the event shall be declared as soon as it is determined that the condition cannot be corrected within the specified period.
In either case, the assessment time starts from the indications being available to Control Room operators that an Emergency Action Level (EAL) has been exceeded.
3.5.1 The assessment time is limited to 15 minutes, except as follows:
3.5.1.1 IF the EAL specifies a duration (e.g., release exceeds 2x TIS for one hour), THEN the assessment time runs concurrently with the required duration AND is the same length (e.g., in this example, one hour).
3.5.1.2 The assessment time and any required duration are NOT additive.
3.5.2 IF the assessment cannot be completed within the specified period, THEN the event must be declared on the basis of INDICATORs that cannot be reasonably discounted.
3.6 Bases 3.6.1 Chapter 4 of the BVPS EPP provides the bases for these EALs.
The bases can be used for guidance to assist the Emergency Director in classifying events for which the classification is not immediately apparent.
3.7 Defined Terms 3.7.1 In the EALs, words written in bold uppercase letters are defined terms having specific meanings as they relate to this procedure.
Definitions of these terms are provided on the reverse side of most pages in the EAL section of this procedure. Such terms shall be interpreted as provided in the definitions.

DEFINITIONS/ACRONYMS ALERT, UNUSUAL EVENT, GENF.RAL EMERGENCY, SITE AREA EMERGENCY: See EAL 4.7 BOMB: A fused explosive device (See EXPLOSION)
CIVIL DISTURBANCE: A group of ten (10) or more persons violently protesting station operations or activities at the site.
Each CRITERION identifies the emergency condition and any numeric values which define that condition (i.e., the basis of the declaration). All classifications are based on an assessment (i.e., determination that the condition is VALID) by the Emergency Director that the CRITERION has been met or exceeded. Implicit in this protocol is the necessity fer these assessments to be completed within 15 minutes (unless otherwise noted) of indications being available to Control Room operators that an Emergency Action Level (EAL) has been exceeded.
CRITICAL SAFETY FUNCTION (CSFs):
A plant safety function required to prevent significant release of core radioactivity to the environment.
There are six CSFs:
Subcriticality, Core Cooling, Heat
- Sink, Vessel Integrity (Pressurized Thermal Shock),
Integrity (Containment) and Inventory (RCS).
EXCLUSION AREA BOUNDARY (EAB): A boundary surrounding the BVPS units beyond which the postulated UFSAR accidents will not result in population doses exceeding the criteria of 10 CFR Part 100. Refer to Figure 7-A.
EXPLOSION: A rapid, violent, unconfined combustion, or a catastrophic failure of pressurized equipment that imparts energy of sufficient force to potentially damage permanent structures, systems or components EXTORTION: An attempt to cause an action at the station by threat of force.
FAULTED: (Steam Generator) Existence of secondary side leakage (i.e.,
steam or feed line rupture) that results in an uncontrolled decrease in steam generator pressure or the steam generator being completely depressurized.
FIRE: Combustion characterized by heat and light. Sources of smoke such as slipping drive belts or overheated electrical equipment do not constitute fires. Observation of flame is preferred but is NOT required if large quantities of smoke and heat are observed.
HOSTAGE: A person or object held as leverage against the station to ensure that demands will be met by the station INDICATOR(s):
Are available via instrumentation, calculations, procedure Entry (AOPs, EOPs, etc.), operator knowledge of plant conditions (pressure, temperatures, etc.) In the Control Room, or reports received from plant personnel, whichever is most limiting, or other evidence that the associated criterion may be exceeded. Inherent in this protocol is the necessity for these assessments to be completed with 15 minutes (unless otherwise noted) of sufficient indications being available to Control Room Operators that an Emergency Action Level (EAL) has been exceeded.
INEFFECTIVE:
The specified restoration action(s) does not result in a reduction in the level of severity of the RED PATH condition within 15 minutes from identification of the Core Cooling CSF Status Tree RED PATH TERMINUS.
A reduction in the level of severity is an improvement in the applicable parameters (e.g., increasing trend in reactor vessel water level (RVLIS full range) and/or decreasing trend on core thermocouple temperatures).
INTRUSION/INTRUDER:
Suspected hostile individual present in a protected area without authorization.
LOWER EXPLOSIVE LIMIT (LEL): Concentration level below which combustible gases will not explode due to ignition.
LCO, LIMITING CONDITION FOR OPERATION:
as specified in the BVPS Technical Specifications, the minimum functional performance level for equipment required for safe shutdown.
Z ORANGE PATH: Monitoring of one or more CSFs by the EOPs which indicates that a CSF is under severe challenge.
PROJECTILE: An object ejected, thrown, or launched towards a p1a*u structure. The source of the projectile may be onsite or offsite. Pot for damage is sufficient to cause concern regarding the integrity oi..e affected structure or the operability or reliability of safety equipment contained therein.
The PROTECTED AREA encompasses all owner controlled areas within the security perimeter fence as shown on Figure 4-A.
RED PATH:
Monitoring of one or more CSFs by the EOPs which indicates that a CSF is under extreme challenge.
RUPTURED:
(Steam Generator) Existence of primary to secondary leakage of a magnitude sufficient to require or cause a reactor trip and safety injection.
SABOTAGE:
Deliberate damage, mis-alignment, or nis-operation of plant equipment with the intent to render the equipment unavailable.
SIGNIFICANT TRANSIENT: An UNPLANNED event involving one or more of the following: (1) Automatic turbine runback >25% thermal reactor power, (2) Electrical load rejection >25% full electrical load, (3)
Reactor Trip; (4) Safety Injection System Activation The SITE PERIMETER encompasses all owner controlled areas in the immediate site environs as shown on Figure 4-A.
STRIKE ACTION: A work stoppage within the PROTECTED AREA by a body of workers to enforce compliance with demands made on the BVPS or one of its vendors. The STRIKE ACTION must threaten to interrupt normal plant operations to be considered.
TOXIC GAS: A gas that is dangerous to life or health by reason of inhalation or skin contact (e.g.. chlorine)..
)
UNPLANNED:
An event or action is UNPLANNED if it is not the expected result of normal operations, testing, or maintenance. Events that result in corrective or mitigative actions being taken in accordance with abnormal or emergency procedures are UNPLANNED.
With specific regard to radioactivity releases, a release of radioactivity is UNPLANNED if it has not been authorized by a Radioactive Waste Discharge Authorization (RWDA).
Implicit in this definition are unintentional releases, unmonitored releases, or planned releases that exceed a condition specified on the RWDA (e.g., alarm setpoints.
minimum dilution flow, minimum release times, maximum release rates, and/or discharge of incorrect tank).
VALID: An indication or report or condition is considered to be VALID when it is conclusively verified by (1) an instrument channel check, or (2) indications on related or redundant indicators, or (3) by direct observation by plant personnel, such that doubt related to the indicator's operability.
the condition's existence, or the report's accuracy is removed. Implicit in this definition is the need for timely assessment (i.e.. within 15 minutes).
VISIBLE DAMAGE: Damage to equipment or structure that is readily observable without measurements, testing, or analyses.
Damage is sufficient to cause concern regarding the continued operability or reliability of affected safety structure, system, or component. Example damage includes: deformation due to heat or impact, denting, penetration.
rupture, cracking, paint blistering. Surface blemishes (e.g.. paint chipping.
scratches) should not be included.

DEFINITIONS/ACRONYMS ALERT, UNUSUAL EVENT, GENERAL EMERGENCY, SITE ORANGE PATH: Monitoring of one or more CSFs by the EOPs which AREA EMERGENCY: See EAL 4.7 indicates that a CSF is under severe challenge.
BOMB: A fused explosive device (See EXPLOSION)
CIVIL DISTURBANCE:
A group of ten (10) or mors persons violently protesting station operations or activities at the site.
Each CRITERION identifies the emergency condition and any numeric values which define that condition (i.e., the basis of the declaration). All classifications are based on an assessment (i.e., determination that the condition is VALID) by the Emergency Director that the CRITERION has been met or exceeded.
Implicit in this protocol is the necessity for these assessments to be completed within 15 minutes (unless otherwise noted) of indications being available to Control Room operators that an Emergency Action Level (EAL) has been exceeded.
CRITICAL SAFETY FUNCTION (CSFs):
A plant safety function required to prevent significant release of core radioactivity to the environment.
There are six CSFs:
Subcriticality, Core Cooling, Heat
- Sink, Vessel Integrity (Pressurized Thermal Shock),
Integrity (Containment) and Inventory (RCS).
EXCLUSION AREA BOUNDARY (EAB): A boundary surrounding the BVPS units beyond which the postulated UFSAR accidents will not result in population doses exceeding the criteria of 10 CFR Part 100. Refer to Figure 7-A.
EXPLOSION: A rapid, violent, unconfined combustion, or a catastrophic failure of pressurized equipment that imparts energy of sufficient force to potentially damage permanent structures, systems or components EXTORTION: An attempt to cause an action at the station by threat of force.
FAULTED: (Steam Generator) Existence of secondary side leakage (i.e.,
steam or feed line rupture) that results in an uncontrolled decrease in steam generator pressure or the steam generator being completely depressurized.
FIRE: Combustion characterized by heat and light.
Sources of smoke such as slipping drive belts or overheated electrical *equipment do not constitute fires. Observation of flame is preferred but is NOT required if large quantities of smoke and heat are observed.
HOSTAGE:
A person or object held as leverage against the station to ensure that demands will be met by the station INDICATOR(s):
Are available via instrumentation, calculations, procedure Entry (AOPs.
EOPs, etc.). operator knowledge of plant conditions (pressure, temperatures, etc.) in the Control Room, or reports received from plant personnel, whichever is most limiting, or other evidence that the associated criterion may be exceeded.
Inherent in this protocol is the necessity for these assessments to.be completed with 15 minutes (unless otherwise noted) of sufficient indications being available to Control Room Operators that an Emergency Action Level (EAL) has been exceeded.
INEFFECTIVE: The specified restoration action(s) does not result in a reduction in the level of severity of the RED PATH condition within 15 minutes from identification of the Core Cooling CSF Status Tree RED PATH TERMINUS.
A reduction in the level of severity is an improvement in the applicable parameters (e.g., increasing trend in reactor vessel water level (RVLIS full range) and/or decreasing trend on core thermocouple temperatures).
INTRUSION/INTRUDER:
Suspected hostile individual present in a protected area without authorization.
LOWER EXPLOSIVE LIMIT (LEL): Concentration level below which combustible gases will not explode due to ignition.
LCO, LIMITING CONDITION FOR OPERATION:
as specified in the BVPS Technical Specifications, the minimum functional performance level for equipment required for safe shutdown, PROJECTILE: An object ejected, thrown, or launched towards a plant structure. The source of the projectile may be onsite or offsite. Pc--'wial for damage is sufficient to cause concern regarding the integrity,,
affected structure or the operability or reliability of safety equipment contained therein.
The PROTECTED AREA encompasses all owner controlled areas within the security perimeter fence as shown on Figure 4-A.
RED PATH:
Monitoring of one or more CSFs by the EOPs which indicates that a CSF is under extreme challenge.
RUPTURED:
(Steam Generator) Existence of primary to secondary leakage of a magnitude sufficient to require or cause a reactor trip and safety injection.
SABOTAGE:
Deliberate damage, mis-alignment, or mis-operation of plant equipment with the intent to render the equipment unavailable,.*:
SIGNIFICANT TRANSIENT: An UNPLANNED event involving one or more of the following: (1) Automatic turbine nmback >25% thermal reactor power, (2) Electrical load rejection >25% full electrical load; (3)
Reactor Trip; (4) Safety Injection System Activation The SITE PERIMETER encompasses all owner controlled re=as in the immediate site environs as shown on Figure 4-A.
STRIKE ACTION: A work stoppage within the PROTECTED AREA by a body of workers to enforce compliance with demands made on the BVPS or one of its vendors. The STRIKE ACTION must threaten to interrupt normal plant operations to be considered.
TOXIC GAS:
A gas that is dangerous to life or health by reason of inhalation or skin contact (e.g., chlorine).
UNPLANNED:
An event or action is UNPLANNED if it is n,,
expected result of normal operations, testing, or maintenance. Events that result in. corrective or mitigative actions being taken in accordance with abnormal or emergency procedures are UNPLANNED.
With specific regard to radioactivy releases, a release of radioactivity is UNPLANNED if it has not been authorized by a Radioactive Waste Discharge Authorization (RWDA).
