Oyster Creek Emergency Preparedness Program 14 5.0 PROCEDURE The Oyster Creek Emergency Preparedness Program consists of the following elements:
5.1 Development, implementation and maintenance of the Emeraency Plan Implementing Document - This document, as defined in Section 3, implements the Oyster Creek Emergency Preparedness Program.
5.2 Emergency Preparedness Training Program -
This program is governed by Reference 6.1 and conducted in accordance with the Oyster Creek Training Department Procedures.
5.3 Emergency Drills and Exercises 5.3.1 An exercise is an evaluated demonstration of major portions of emergency response capabilities.
An exercise tests the integrated capability of the emergency response organization to identify weaknesses that could affect the response to an actual emergency.
Exercises usually involve a large radiological release affecting the off-site populace and usually involve the full or partial participation of federal, state, and local agencies.
(ref: INPO 88-019) 5.3.2 A drill is an evolution conducted to develop and maintain key emergency response skills.
Drills are usually narrower in scope than exercises and can be used to train a specific area of response such as fire response, medical response, or interagency communications. Drills can also be used to train for integrated response of the emergency organization.
Drills should be used to practice and promote a high state of readiness and teamwork within and between on-site facilities and disciplines.
Drills can be used to correct deficiencies identified in exercises.

Initials 5.0 On-site Protective Actions 5.1 If any of the off-site OCNGS Emergency Response Facilities are downwind of a radioactive release, provide for their monitoring and protection (e.g., RAA at Forked River). Exhibit 1B provides guidance.
5.1.1 If these OCNGS facilities are within sectors that were ordered to evacuate by the State, then they should be relocated to an alternate facility.
5.2 If site accountability has been ordered, ensure it is logged on PAR status board, in the ED's log, and communicated to the ESD.
Direct the C.R. to make the appropriate page announcement for accountability. If needed, provide the route to the EAA(OCAB/Warehouse).
5.3 If a site evacuation has been ordered, ensure provisions are made for providing site employees with instructions on reporting to work for the next business day. Site evacuation should be logged on PAR status board, ED's log, and communicated to ESD.
6.0 Changes to Emergency Classifications NOTE If the Communications have not been turned over to the EOF, off-site notifications must be made within 15 minutes of an emergency declaration.
6.1 Immediately notify the ECC Communications Coordinator of any changes in emergency classifications and direct the notifications be completed.
6.1.1 All notifications for on-site and off-site should be conducted from the Control Room if available, until the off-site notifications are assumed by the EOF. Upon changes in classes direct the Control Room (ECC Comm Coord) to complete the appropriate notifications. This directions satisfies the approval of such notifications.
6.1.2 If off-site notifications have been turned over to EOF, immediately confer with ESD on the need to reclassify the emergency. Remind him to ensure appropriate off-site notifications are made within 15 minutes.

Initials 9.0 NRC Interface 9.1 The Security Plan allows that "when ever site conditions are, or may soon become, a danger to the public health and safety, certain safe guards measures may be suspended in accordance with the following requirements. The action taken is approved by the Manager of Plant Operations, Operations Group Shift Supervisor or Emergency Director. If the ED is not a licensed SRO, he/she must consult with a licensed SRO prior to authorizing the Suspension of any safeguards measures".
9.1.1 Security is able to process the NRC site response team rapidly if the ED (GSSISSM) authorizes their immediate access under the above Security Plan provision. Any such authorization should be logged.
9.1.2 If this provision is not used it will likely take 2-3 hours to train, badge and allow access to the whole NRC team. This delay will detract from the functioning of the NRC Team but is clearly at the judgment/discretion of the ED.
NOTE An alternative to waiving access requirements is to arrange for escort.
9.1.3 NRC immediate access under this Security Plan provision is meant to provide access to emergency centers only, not site wide access, RWP access or approve respiratory protective equipment use.
9.2 Brief the NRC upon arrival and determine if the Senior NRC person is the Site Team Leader or Director, Site Operations (see Exhibit 1E for reference).
9.3 NRC directives can only be received by the ESD (or in the ESD's absence, the ED). NRC should be requested to provide all directives in writing.

THE TECHNICAL SUPPORT CENTER 24 EXHIBIT iD (continued)
EMERGENCY DIRECTOR RESPONSIBILITIES NOTE: In essence, no one below a licensed SRO individual can make the decision to depart from the license. However, if a more senior manager is present (i.e., Emergency Director) even though he may not posses an SRO license, the decision authority would be passed to him as a higher authority in the chain of command. The licensed SRO shall provide his best judgment to the ED for his consideration. Beyond that, the SRO shall follow the orders of his supervisor. It is imperative that the Emergency Director consult the SRO, and the Technical Support Center to the fullest extent practicable in arriving at a decision to deviate from prescribed procedures. However, Emergency Operating Procedures should generally not be deviated from. If the decision is made to depart from licensee conditions or technical specifications, notify the NRC before taking such actions, if time permits or if time does not permit then within one hour.
When the Emergency Support Director (ESD) arrives at the EOF and declares himself to be ready to assume that role, he will assume overall responsibility for management of the response to the accident and recovery operations. With the activation of the Emergency Support Direction function, the ESD specifically will assume decision authority for Items A, B, C, and D. However, decision authority for Items E, F, G, and H will be retained by the ED. Decisions on all of the listed actions normally will result from close and continuous consultation between the ED and the ESD, and it shall be the responsibility of the ED to ensure the ESD is provided with the necessary information to arrive at timely and appropriate decisions. In the special case of event classification, the ESD shall retain the prerogative to overrule the ED if, in the judgment of the ESD, uncertainty or other considerations exist to the extent warranting classification of higher level of emergency than that classified by the ED.

THE TECHNICAL SUPPORT CENTER 24 EXHIBIT lE NRC EMERGENCY RESPONSE INTERFACE CRITERIA This is a synopsis of the NRC emergency response process as it applies to OCNGS.
In essence, directives from the NRC must come from the NRC Director (typically, the NRC Chairman) or from the NRC Director of Site Operations (typically, the NRC Regional Administrator). Such advice or directive can only be communicated to the Emergency Director (the Emergency Support Director once the EOF is activated). If a directive order is issued by the NRC Director or Director of Site Operations, the ED/ESD should request written confirmation which spells out the specific nature of the directive.
While NRC advice may be challenged by the ED or ESD, directives must be complied with.
With respect to Protective Action Recommendations for the public, the NRC may either endorse the OCNGS recommendation or opt to recommend a different one. The ED/ESD is encouraged to include the NRC and State representatives in the Protective Action Recommendation discussions in order to arrive at a mutually agreeable recommendation. In the event that the NRC opts to recommend a different recommendation, they will communicate directly with the State. Their recommendation, like the utility recommendation, will be considered by the State in the development of a Governor directive.
Upon arrival of the NRC, the ED/ESD should:
Verify who is the senior NRC person in charge Ask the senior NRC person to inform the ED/ESD when the position of Director Site Operations is assumed and whether the responsibility to issue directives is included.
Request that the NRC keep OCNGS informed of all substantive information exchanges between the NRC and the slate.
Request the NRC provide all directives in writing.
SYNOPSIS - NRC EMERGENCY RESPONSE NOTE Review the following as time permits and/or if the NRC is expected to respond.
Revision 2 to NUREG-0728, supplemented by NUREG-0845 and NUREG-1471, describes the manner in which the NRC will respond to an incident and provides criteria for making preplanned response decisions. They provide procedural guidance, describe the functions related to NRC emergency response, and define procedures for responding to the following NRC modes of operation.

Title Revision No.
THE TECHNICAL SUPPORT CENTER 24 EXHIBIT lE NRC EMERGENCY RESPONSE INTERFACE CRITERIA Each mode defines the scope of NRC activities related to a particular level of emergency response in ascending order of degree of involvement to deactivation. The various modes are characterized as follows:
- 1. Normal mode - Normal activities designed to maintain readiness.
- 2.
Standby mode -
Regional office activates the Incident Response Center (IRC with an appropriate staff and NRC Headquarters Operations Center staffed by a standby team.
- 3.
Initial activation - NRC Operations Center is staffed by a response team, the Regional IRC is fully activated and a site team is dispatched under the leadership of the Regional Administrator, normally designated as Director of Site Operations (DSO).
- 4.
Expanded activation - Focus on NRC response operations is shifted to the site. DSO is designated primary spokesman for the NRC and may be empowered with directive authority by the Chairman of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
- 5.
Deactivation -
Follow-up activities (e.g., reviews, investigation, and recovery operations).
The particular mode assumed by the NRC will be dependent upon licensee event classification
\\~-'
and independent NRC perception of relative severity of uncertainty of accident conditions."
NRC ADVICE The NRC may offer advice or assistance to the Licensee during an emergency, or may respond to Licensee requests for advice or assistance. This may involve diagnosis of critical problems, development of proposed remedial courses of action, and proposals to implement additional precautionary measurers. The NRC is also prepared to direct that certain actions be taken if, after thorough discussion with the Emergency Director (the Emergency Support Director once the EOF is activated) it is decided that such direction is required. In the event that such action is taken by the NRC Director or the NRC Director of Site Operations, the ED/ESD should request written confirmation which spells out the specific nature of the directive.
Directives will be communicated directly to the ED/ESD from the NRC Director (NRC Chairman) or from the NRC Director of Site Operations (DSO), typically the Regional Administrator, once appointed and empowered to do so.
Several important concepts govern the NRC in providing advice, assistance, or direction.
They are:
- a.
The Licensee is at all times responsible for mitigating the consequences of the incident.
- b.
Although the NRC could issue formal orders to the Licensee to take certain measures and to monitor implementation, ".
licensee continues to make other key operational decisions and to operate and manage the facility.
- c.
The NRC must have a single voice when advising or directing the Licensee.
- d.
The ED/ESD has the option to accept or challenge NRC advice.

THE TECHNICAL SUPPORT CENTER 24 EXHIBIT lE (continued)
NRC EMERGENCY RESPONSE INTERFACE CRITERIA At no time will advice or direction come from both the Director and DSO and the Licensee will always be kept apprised of who is empowered to exercise authority as the NRC Spokesman. All other NRC personnel in contact with Licensee personnel are responsible to make clear that discussions should not be construed as advice or direction but rather as a sharing or gathering of information.
NRC INPUT TO RECOMMEND PROTECTIVE ACTIONS The NRC responsibility during an emergency, as during normal operations, is to ensure that protection of public health and safety is adequate. One aspect of exercise of this responsibility is to provide Protective Action Recommendations or advice to off-site authorities. This may take the form of an NRC endorsement of a Licensee Protective Action Recommendation or the NRC may opt to recommend additional protective actions. The NRC is not involved in the process of recommending Protective Actions, the NRC may get involved if a major problem is identified with the protective actions recommended by the licensee or protective actions undertaken by the state or local government. Additionally NRC involvement may be requested by state or local officials.
NRC ORGANIZATION The attachment to the synopsis is provided for your information. This attachment depicts the site team organization and is an extract of the Region I supplement.
It defines the number of NRC personnel expected to operate in each facility and shows the lines of communications the NRC expects to use.

THE TECHNICAL SUPPORT CENTER 24 EXHIBIT 9 PRESS RELEASE APPROVAL GUIDANCE 1.0 Press releases should be issued within approximately one hour from the time that a major plant event has occurred. Press releases shall include the time that the information is current and be written in accordance with the following guidelines:
1.1 The following categories of information should be included in press releases.
- a.
Level of Emergency This is simply identifying which one of the four emergency levels was declared.
- b.
Basis for Emergency Declaration This should be a simplified description of the plant condition which produced the emergency action level (e.g., a leak of radioactive water within the plant building).
- c.
Operational Status of Plant A simple description of plant status at the time of the emergency declaration (e.g., OCNGS was operating at 100% power when the leak was discovered, however, the plant is currently reducing power).
- d.
Company/Government Interface This is intended to inform the public that OCNGS has notified and is working closely with government officials so that public confidence and company credibility can be increased.
- e.
Corrective Actions This should be a nontechnical description of what plant personnel are doing to correct the problem. It may include such language as "attempts are being made to stop the leak" or "plant personnel are investigating the cause of the leak."
- f.
Off-site Impact A statement which simply assesses what impact this event may have on the environment. This is intended to provide factual information on off-site radiological conditions (e.g., a radioactive release is in progress, however, environmental monitoring teams have not detected any radiation levels off-site in excess of normal background). The initial press release should include all or part of the above information since time is of the essence. However, at the very least, it should contain items a-e above.
2.0 In addition to the above, the following guidance should be used in issuing press releases:
- Speculation, dose projections and Protective Action Recommendations should not be included in press releases.

PRESS RELEASE APPROVAL GUIDANCE
- Press releases may have operational and radiological review but shall have concurrence by the ED. Original initialed copies are to be retained for records. Exceptions to this are limited to press releases with boiler plate information only (e.g., Pre-approved boiler plate news releases are contained in Procedure 1820-IMP-1720.01, Attachment 1) which may be issued without prior review and approval. Once the Governor has declared a "State of Emergency", all OCNGS press releases shall be provided to the State Police representative in the Media Center for review prior to final issuance. Changes made as a result of this review should be communicated to the ESD (ED if ESD is not activated).
NOTE For security related events, press releases containing potential safeguards information are to be reviewed by the Security Coordinator.
- Press releases will be reviewed expeditiously in order to support timely issuance.
- Press releases should avoid technical terms (e.g., plant names) and jargon (e.g., trip) and should be written as simple as possible. For example, ISO Condenser could be referred to as a heat removal process from the reactor.

THE TECHNICAL SUPPORT CENTER 24 EXHIBIT 10 PLAN FOR STORAGE AND TRANSFER OF CONTAMINATED WATER Prior to implementing a recovery program for handling large volumes of contaminated water, the conditions unique to the accident should be known and evaluated. Methods for dealing with large amounts of contaminated water and dependent on its volume, activity, and location, and require that technical evaluations be performed and special procedures be developed prior to implementation. Unless required by Emergency Operating Procedures or directed by the ED, it is OCNGS policy not to transfer radioactive material out of primary or secondary containment to any other storage location. For any such transfers (except as permitted by EOP's), a detailed safety evaluation must be performed and approved by the Emergency Director. This report, therefore, provides only general guidelines for the post accident handling of large volumes of contaminated water released as a result of pipe breaks that occur either in or out of primary containment.
I.
PIPE BREAK IN PRIMARY CONTAINMENT A pipe break in primary containment will cause contaminated liquid to be discharged initially to the Drywell basement floor. Depending upon the severity of the break, and if the 1-8 sump capacity is exceeded, contaminated water could eventually flood the basement and spill into the Torus. The Torus can accommodate an additional 126,000 ft3of liquid before reaching its flooded volume capacity of 213,000 ft.3.
A. Drains and Sump Operation in Primary Containment The Drywell Floor Drain Sump 1-8 is part of the Equipment and Floor Drainage System and normally collects water from spills received through the Drywell floor drains. The sump is located in the Drywell at elevation 6'0" and has an available capacity of 81.6 gallons. The sump discharge is isolated (full valve closure of containment isolation valves V-22-28, 28) on high Drywell pressure or low, low reactor water level. These valves can also be manually controlled from panel llF in Control Room by making necessary electrical changes per OCNGS Procedure 312.1, "Drywell Isolation Signal Bypass" (Emergencies). The sump pumps are interlocked to shutdown on closure of the discharge isolation valves. This allows for the isolation of contaminated liquid within primary containment. In addition, the sump can be manually isolated by closing sump pump discharge valves V-22-184, 186.
To discharge the contents of the sump for processing, pumps 1-8A and I-8B can be manually operated intermittently using their respective power supplies 1A21 and 1B21. This operation assumes that the containment isolation valves have reopened or are in the open position. Also, the sump isolation valves V-22-184, 186 should be considered for manually controlling the sump discharge flow.

PLAN FOR STORAGE AND TRANSFER OF CONTAMINATED WATER II.
PIPE BREAK OUTSIDE PRIMARY CONTAINMENT The most likely areas for contaminated water to collect following a pipe break in the Reactor Building or Turbine Building basement are Reactor Building sump 1-6 and 1-7 and Turbine Building sump 1-3. The amount of contaminated water expected to be released during a break outside primary containment will be relieved through the floor drain system located in each building to the respective sump.
A. Drains and Sump Operation Outside Primary Containment Reactor Building Contaminated water relieved through the floor drains in the Reactor Building will collect in sumps 1-6 and 1-7 (SE Corner). The sumps are located at Elevation -19'6" and have a combined capacity of approximately 1,500 gallons. The sumps are interconnected and provided with sump inlet isolation valves (V-24-35, 36, 37, 38) which automatically close on high, high sump level. Sump 1-7 discharge lines are equipped with isolation valves (V-22-167, 169) that are manually (local) controlled to allow for sump isolation, and can be used to control sump outlet flow for intermittent liquid processing. In addition to valve manipulations, the sump pumps can be tripped off manually from the 480 switchgear room (supplies 1A21, 1B21) to allow for local sump flooding and contaminated liquid isolation.
Turbine Building The Condenser Bay Area of the Turbine Building basement is most likely to accumulate contaminated water resulting from a pipe break in the basement and steam tunnel. In the extreme case, a pipe line break (LOCA) in the Main Steam System outside primary containment would cause high pressure steam to be discharged from both sides of the break. However, the flow limiters in the main steam line would control the blowdown to 200% of rated flow. The line break would be sensed by either increased pressure drop across venturis due to high steam flow rate, or increased temperature in pipe tunnel, and main steam isolation valve closure would be activated within 0.5 seconds after break and full valve closure at 10.5 seconds. The limited amount of contaminated water deposited as the steam condense would be drained through the Equipment Floor Drain System.
The basement floor is equipped with a segregated floor drain system for controlled drainage to the Turbine Building sumps. Sump 1-3 collects the contaminated water generated in a Condenser Bay Area and would collect the water generated from a major pipe break. The sump is located at Turbine Building (NW corner of Condensate Pump Pit) at elevation 0'0" and has a capacity of 1,500 gallons.

24 PLAN FOR STORAGE AND TRANSFER OF CONTAMINATED WATER The sump pump discharge valves (V-22-172, 174) are manually (local) isolated from the Turbine Building and the sump pump power supplies (lA12, 1B12) secured from Turbine Building Mezzanine North Control location. Manual isolation of sump 1-3, which is similar to the manual isolation of Reactor Building sump 1-7, will allow local flooding to occur. Intermittent pump operation or valve throttling will allow for controlled liquid processing at a desired capacity.
III. SAMPLING CONTAMINATED WATER Samples of the contaminated water should be obtained to determine the liquid's radioisotopic content and conductivity. The sampling results will influence the subsequent processing path chosen.
Possible sample points that should be investigated for use are:
TO SAMPLE Torus Drywell Sump (1-8)
USE V-21-57 LOCATION "C" Containment Spray Pump -
Reactor Building Drywell Sample Valve Reactor Building 23' Elev.
Reactor Building Sump (1-7)
Turbine Building Sump (1-6)
DS HV-133 DS HV-134 ORW Pipe Tunnel ORW Pipe Tunnel Since operation of the respective sump pumps will be required for sampling, pump run time should be minimized to limit the amount of contaminated water transported to Chem. Waste/Floor Drain System. An attempt should be made, therefore, to sample the contaminated water at a point nearest to the break location using a Geyser Pump and ALARA practices when transporting the liquid.
IV.
PROCESSING SCHEMES Prior to transferring highly contaminated water from its spill
- area, several issues need to be addressed in a technical evaluation. These include:
- 1. Does the flooded area need to be recovered radiologically to allow workers entry?
- 2. Does retaining the water pose a greater radiological concern than transferring to Radwaste?
- 3. Does Radwaste have available capacity?
- 4. Are there processing options such as a temporary demineralizer?

PLAN FOR STORAGE AND TRANSFER OF CONTAMINATED WATER These types of concerns should be addressed on an individual basis prior to implementing a processing plan.
A. NORMAL Contaminated water generated within the plant during normal operation which collects in the Drywell, Turbine Building, or Reactor Building sumps is transferred to the Chem. Waste/Floor Drain System for processing. This system, in addition to the High Purity Liquid Waste System, comprises the new Radwaste Liquid Radwaste System. The Chem.
Waste/Floor Drain System receives the sump water in a series of collector tanks; WC-T-lA, 1B, 1C. The total combined capacity of these tanks is 42,000 gallons. In the event that this primary collector capacity is unavailable for use, 10,000 gallons of secondary collector capacity is available by diverting flow to the ORW Floor Drain Collector Tank NV-49. Flow from the Turbine Building sumps to NV-49 can be accomplished by manually opening DS-HV-111 and closing DS-HV-106 from their location in the ORW pipe tunnel. Flow from Reactor Building Sump 1-7 to NV-49 can be accomplished by closing DS-HV-109 and opening DS-HV-114. Additional tanks available for receiving water are:
Waste Neutralizer Tanks NV-05A/B -
10,000 gallons each.
High Purity Waste Collector Tank HP-T-IB -
30,000 gallons.
Water can be transferred from NV-49 to the Waste Neutralizer Tank using Section 11 of OCNGS Station Procedure 313.2.
The Chem. Waste/Floor Drain System is capable of processing water at 60 GPM with both process trains in use.
B. According to Sample Results Water with Excessively High Radioxsotopic Activity Contaminated water of excessively high radioisotopic activity which precludes safe handling and disposition will be retained at its location and processed in small enough portions such that exposures to operating personnel are not significantly impacted. The method for handling this water will depend on its location and rad levels. If necessary, steps should be taken to dilute the Contaminated water with low activity water to reduce the concentrations. Subsequent to authorization allowing the processing to occur, contaminated water located in the sumps can be directed to the Chem. Waste/Floor Drain System tanks and diluted as required. Water located in the Torus can be drained through the Containment Spray Pumps 1-3 and 1-4 manual drain valves V-21-57, 58. Manual drainage in this manner will allow water to subsequently be processed in either the High Purity System or Chem.
Waste/Floor Drain System depending on water quality. (Water sent to High Purity System should have conductivity less than 50 UMHOs/CM -
refer to SP-1302-28-001 Water Quality, OCNGS or the permission of the Manager of Chemistry).

PLAN FOR STORAGE AND TRANSFER OF CONTAMINATED WATER Outdoor Storage Limit Not Exceeded If the radioisotopic concentration of the contaminated water in the Torus is such that the outdoor storage Technical Specification (3.6.C) of 10 curies (see note below) would be exceeded, and processing cannot be initiated, outdoor storage options should be investigated. The following tanks can be used to store water:
Condensate Storage Tank -
535,000 gallons Torus Water Storage Tank -
763,000 gallons A temporary connection from the blind 14" flange off the common discharge header of containment Spray Pumps 1-3 and 1-4 will allow water to be transferred from the Torus to the above tanks.
NOTE: The new Radiological Effluents Technical Specifications Spec.
3.6.C allows storage of up to 10.0 Ci in the Condensate storage Tank. OCNGS would have to apply to the NRC for authorization to include Torus Water Storage Tank in the outdoor storage plan.
C.
Radiation Levels not a Limiting Constraint Processing through High Purity Waste System Contaminated water of low mineral content is normally processed through the High Purity System. Torus water can be routed through Containment Spray Pumps 1-3, 1-4 drain valves V-21-57, 58 and allowed to collect in the R.B.E.D.T. The contents of the tank can then be pumped directly to the High Purity Waste Collector Tanks using existing connections. Contaminated sump water can be processed through the Chem. Waste/Floor Drain System bypassing the evaporators. Processing without the evaporators will allow rates approaching 60 GPM per train.
Processing through Chem. Waste/Floor Drain System Contaminated water of high mineral content is normally processed through the Chem. Waste/Floor Drain System. Since sump water is normally processed through this system, temporary connections are not required. Contaminated Torus water can be processed through this system if the Reactor Building Equipment Drain Tank (R.B.E.D.T.) is allowed to overflow into Reactor Building sump 1-7(B). This can be accomplished by directing Torus water through Containment Spray Pumps 1-3, 4 drain valves (V-21-57, 58), so that drainage to the R.B.E.D.T. through the floor drain system will occur (see Appendix 1). The normal effluent path of R.B.E.D.T. can be manually isolated to allow for overflow by controlling pump isolation valves V-22-150, 152 from the Reactor Building or by manually controlling pump power (local controls -
supply MCC 1B21).

However, at least one should be used to support ED/TSC Coordinator Communications. This may be via a normal telephone to ECC. This should be coordinated with the ECC Communications Coordinator.
Communicators who are not required for OSC operations may be useful at the EOF, especially if NRC is sending a response team. This should be coordinated with the EOF Communications Coordinator.
2.3.4 The Tech Assistant may be useful to assist the OSC with operational related teams. He may replace or supplement the GOS assigned to the OSC.
2.3.5 Personnel who are not required may be sent to the Emergency Assembly Area or Remote Assembly Area as appropriate. If neither Assembly Areas are activated, they may be sent home with reporting instructions for the next day (e.g.; report to site, EOF, OSC, etc.).

THE TECHNICAL SUPPORT CENTER 24 EXHIBIT 12 ALTERNATE EMERGENCY RESPONSE FACILITIES This exhibit provides a description of evacuation preplanning for Alternate Emergency Response Facilities as follows:
- 1. Control Room/ECC - Evacuation of Control Room -
the Operators control the plant from remote shutdown panels and the GSS directs plant operations from the TSC. All other ECC IREO members are integrated into the TSC organization. (Refer to 2000-ABN-3200.30 for specific direction).
- 2. OSC -
Evacuation of OSC -
all OSC personnel are evacuated to the SOSC which is located in the rear of the TSC. (Refer to EPIP-OC-27 for specific direction.)
- 3. TSC -
Evacuation of TSC -
the ED support staff which includes the ED, ED Assistant, RAC, and RASE evacuate to the Control Room (ECC). The Tech Support staff which includes the TSC Coordinator, TSC Engineers, Communication Coordinator, Communicators and the Tech Assistant evacuate to the OSC. The Core Engineer would initially report to the Control Room, but if his services are not needed, he will be sent to the OSC.
- 4. Remote Assembly Area -
Evacuation of RAA's -
if the Forked River Bldg. 14 RAA is not available then relocate to the Berkeley Customer Operations Center and vise versa.
- 5. Emergency Assembly Area -
The EAA may be redirected to the Forked River Assembly Area or to the Remote Assembly Area at Berkeley Line as directed by management. In this case Site Accountability is conducted as personnel exit the site.
- 6.
EOF -
There are no backup facilities for the EOF because it is remote from the site and it is unlikely that a nuclear related incident would affect both the plant and this center.

EXHIBIT 13 (continued)
EMERGENCY DIRECTOR AUTHORIZATION FORM FOR DEVIATIONS FROM REQUIREMENTS LICENSED CONDITIONS (CONTINUED)
NOTE 1 -
The OQA Plan describes the formal plan to implement the requirements of 10 CFR 50 Appendix B. The Plan contains the controls and bases for procedures that implement the Plan. If an entire process described in the Plan is not followed, this must be considered under 10 CFR 50.54(x). It is unlikely that such a deviation could be considered to protect the health and safety of the public thus could not be authorized under 10 CFR 50.54(x).
Specific and individual deviations from the plan's implementing procedures are not considered a deviation form the Plan, and as such would still require the approval of the Emergency Director and documentation on Exhibit 6 but would not require notification of the NRC per 10 CFR 50.72(a) (2) (i)
(C).
NOTE 2 -
The Security Plan implements the requirements of 10 CFR 73.55. In essence, deviations from the Security Plan are deviations from 10 CFR 73.55 and in accordance with 10 CFR 73.55(a) are reported in accordance with 10 CFR 50.54(x). In addition to the Security Plan, 10 CFR 73.55 required a Safeguards Contingency Plan which gives guidance to accomplish specific defined objectives for different events. The Safeguards Contingency Plan is considered similar to an implementing document and therefore specific deviations from it are not 10 CFR 50.54(x) deviations. However, if whole parts of the Safeguards Contingency Plan are not followed, these should be considered under 10 CFR 50.54(x).
Example:
The Security Plan, as required by 10 CFR 73.55, contains requirements on access controls.
If access controls are suspended this should be considered a deviation of the Security Plan and be reported in accordance with 10 CFR 50.54(x). However, if access controls will be maintained but differently than described in the procedures, this is not a 10 CFR 50.54(x) deviation but would still require the appropriate approval and documentation using this exhibit page E13-1 and E13-2.

EMERGENCY DIRECTOR AUTHORIZATION FORM FOR DEVIATIONS FROM REQUIREMENTS ADDITIONAL INFORMATION AND REGULATORY EXCERPTS 50.54(x) -
A licensee may take reasonable action that departs from a license condition or technical specification (contained in a license issued under this part) in an emergency when this action is immediately needed to protect the public health and safety and no action consistent with license conditions and technical specifications that can provide adequate or equivalent protection is immediately apparent.
NOTE The NRC has interpreted 50.54(x) to apply to NRC rules, regulations and orders in addition to Technical Specifications, Licenses, and License Conditions.
50.54(y)
Licensee action permitted by paragraph (x) of this section shall be approved, as a minimum, by a licensed senior operator prior to taking the action.
73.55(a)
In accordance with section 50.54(x) and (y) of Part 50, the licensee may suspend any safeguards measure pursuant to Section 73.55 in an emergency when this action is immediately needed to protect the public health and safety and no action consistent with the license conditions and technical specifications that can be provide adequate or equivalent protection is immediately apparent. This suspension of safeguards measures must be reported in accordance with the provisions of 73.71. Reports made under Section 50.72 need not be duplicated under 73.71.
NOTE In essence, no one below a licensed SRO individual can make the decision to depart from the License. However, if a more senior manager is present (i.e., Emergency Director) even though he does not possess an SRO license, the decision authority would be passed to him as a higher authority in the chain of command. The licensed SRO shall provide his best judgment to the ED for his consideration.
Beyond that the SRO shall follow the orders of his supervisor.
It is suggested that the Emergency Director consult to the extend practicable with the Technical experts at the TSC in arriving at a decision to deviate from prescribed procedures. However, Emergency Operating Procedures should not be deviated from.
50.72(b)
Any deviation from the plant's technical specifications authorized pursuant 50.54(x) of this part.
NOTE Notify the NRC before taking action if time permits, but at least within 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> of the deviation.
The NRC interprets the reporting requirement to cover any departure under 50.54(x) and (y), and is not limited to Technical Specification deviations.

EXHIBIT 1 Radiological Assessment Coordinator Checklist Initials 1.0 Determine if one or more individuals have received an uptake of radioiodine resulting in a thyroid committed dose equivalent (CDE) of greater than or equal to (25 REM).
Consult with the Radiological Controls Coordinator on the benefits of administering stable iodine (KI).
NOTE The Thyroid Dose to an individual may be determined as follows:
A. Using an air sample, the thyroid dose is calculated as 25 mrem per DAC-hr.
B. Having the individual get a whole body count if the whole body counter is available.
The whole body counter software will calculate the thyroid dose.
NOTE Potassium iodide is not to be used in lieu of proper respiratory protection (i.e., as a prophylactic).
Potassium iodide is only to be used to block the thyroid gland shortly after accidental or unavoidable inhalation or ingestion of radioiodine.
II 2.0 If the decision is to administer stable iodine, (KI) arrange for an escort to transport the exposed individual(s) to the Radiological Controls Coordinator's location, if needed.
3.0 Arrange for a bioassay to be performed on each exposed individual of concern after issuance or refusal of the thyroid blocking agent.

THYROID BLOCKING 3
EXHIBIT 4 THYROID BLOCKING AGENT PRECAUTIONS HOW POTASSIUM IODIDE WORKS Certain forms of iodine help your thyroid gland work right. Most people get the iodine they need from foods, like iodized salt or fish.
The thyroid can "store" or hold only a certain amount of iodine.
In a radiation emergency, radioactive iodine may be released in the air.
This material may be breathed or swallowed.
It may enter the thyroid gland and damage it.
The damage would probably not show itself for years.
Children are most likely to have thyroid damage.
If you take potassium iodide, it will fill-up your thyroid gland with non-radioactive iodine.
This reduces the chance that radioactive iodine will enter the thyroid gland.
WHO SHOULD NOT TAKE POTASSIUM IODIDE The only people who should not take potassium iodide are people who know they are allergic to iodide.
You may take potassium iodide even if you are taking medicines for a thyroid problem (for example, a thyroid hormone or anti-thyroid drug).
Pregnant and nursing women and babies and children may also take this drug.
HOW AND WHEN TO TAKE POTASSIUM IODIDE Potassium Iodide should be taken as soon as possible after medical personnel tell you.
You should take one dose every 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />.
More will not help you because the thyroid can "hold" only limited amounts of iodine.
Larger doses will increase the risk of side effects.
You will probably be told not to take the drug for more than 10 days.
SIDE EFFECTS Usually, side effects of potassium iodide happen when people take high doses for a long time.
You should be careful not to take more than the recommended dose or take it for longer than you are told.
Side effects are unlikely because of the low drug dose and the short time you will be taking the drug.
Possible side effects include skin rashes, swelling of the salivary glands, and "iodism" (metallic taste, burning mouth and throat, sore teeth and gums, symptoms of a head cold, and sometimes stomach upset and diarrhea).
A few people could have an allergic reaction with more serious symptoms.
These could be fever and joint pains, or swelling of parts of the face and body at times severe shortness of breath (EPIP44/S6)
