GENERAL EMERGENCY SITE AREA EMERGENCY ALERT UNUSUAL EVENT Abnormal Rad Levels / Radiological Effluents Radiological Effluents RG1 Release of gaseous radioactivity 1 2 3 4 5 6 D resulting in offsite dose greater than 1000 mRem TEDE or 5000 mRem thyroid CDE.
Emergency Action Levels (EAL) :
Notes:
The Emergency Director should declare the event promptly upon determining that the applicable time has been exceeded, or will likely be exceeded.
If an ongoing release is detected and the release start time is unknown, assume that the release duration has exceeded 15 minutes.
Classification based on effluent monitor readings assumes that a release path to the environment is established. If the effluent flow past an effluent monitor is known to have stopped due to actions to isolate the release path, then the effluent monitor reading is no longer valid for classification purposes.
The pre-calculated effluent monitor values presented in EAL #1 should be used for emergency classification assessments until the results from a dose assessment using actual meteorology are available.

Emergency Action Levels (EAL) :
Note: If the equipment in the listed room or area was already inoperable, or out of service, before the event occurred, then no emergency classification is warranted.

Note: EAL #4 does not apply to routine traffic impediments such as fog, snow, ice, or vehicle breakdowns or accidents.
Escalation of the emergency classification level would be via IC CA2 or MA5.
- 1. Tornado strike within the PROTECTED AREA.
- 2. Internal room or area flooding of a magnitude sufficient to require manual or automatic electrical isolation of a SAFETY SYSTEM component required by Technical Specifications for the current operating mode.
- 3. Movement of personnel within the PROTECTED AREA is impeded due to an offsite event involving hazardous materials (e.g., an offsite chemical spill or toxic gas release).
- 4. A hazardous event that results in on-site conditions sufficient to prohibit the plant staff from accessing the site via personal vehicles.

GENERAL EMERGENCY SITE AREA EMERGENCY ALERT UNUSUAL EVENT Hazards and Other conditions Affecting Plant Safety Emergency Director Judgment HG7 Other conditions exist which in the 1 2 3 4 5 6 D judgment of the Emergency Director warrant declaration of a General Emergency.
Emergency Action Levels (EAL) :
Other conditions exist which in the judgment of the Emergency Director indicate that events are in progress or have occurred which involve actual or IMMINENT substantial core degradation or melting with potential for loss of containment integrity or HOSTILE ACTION that results in an actual loss of physical control of the facility.
Releases can be reasonably expected to exceed EPA Protective Action Guideline exposure levels offsite for more than the immediate site area.
HS7 Other conditions exist which in the 1 2 3 4 5 6 D judgment of the Emergency Director warrant declaration of a Site Area Emergency.
Emergency Action Levels (EAL) :
Other conditions exist which in the judgment of the Emergency Director indicate that events are in progress or have occurred which involve actual or likely major failures of plant functions needed for protection of the public or HOSTILE ACTION that results in intentional damage or malicious acts, (1) toward site personnel or equipment that could lead to the likely failure of or, (2) that prevent effective access to equipment needed for the protection of the public.
Any releases are not expected to result in exposure levels which exceed EPA Protective Action Guideline exposure levels beyond the site boundary.
HA7 Other conditions exist which in the 1 2 3 4 5 6 D judgment of the Emergency Director warrant declaration of an Alert.
Emergency Action Levels (EAL) :
Other conditions exist which, in the judgment of the Emergency Director, indicate that events are in progress or have occurred which involve an actual or potential substantial degradation of the level of safety of the plant or a security event that involves probable life threatening risk to site personnel or damage to site equipment because of HOSTILE ACTION. Any releases are expected to be limited to small fractions of the EPA Protective Action Guideline exposure levels.
HU7 Other conditions exist which in the 1 2 3 4 5 6 D judgment of the Emergency Director warrant declaration of an Unusual Event.
Emergency Action Levels (EAL) :
Other conditions exist which in the judgment of the Emergency Director indicate that events are in progress or have occurred which indicate a potential degradation of the level of safety of the plant or indicate a security threat to facility protection has been initiated. No releases of radioactive material requiring offsite response or monitoring are expected unless further degradation of safety systems occurs.
