| Title | Dose Assessment Capabilities in the Technical Support Center |
| Description | The inspectors identified a finding of very low safety significance (Green) and a NCV of 10 CFR 50, Appendix E, Section IV.B.1. Specifically, Susquehanna emergency plan implementing procedures did not provide the guidance for the dose assessment staff in the Technical Support Center (TSC) to determine the magnitude of, and continually assess the impact of, the release of radioactive materials. The TSC staff was procedurally limited to performing forward and back dose calculations, but not blowout panel calculations. Blowout panel release calculations were only to be performed by the Emergency Operations Facility (EOF) staff. Susquehanna entered this issue into their corrective action program as CR-2015-04701, which led to the revision of the applicable procedures to allow the TSC dose assessment staff to perform the full scope of dose calculations available to the EOF staff. The inspectors determined that the failure to have the same scope of dose assessment capabilities available to the full emergency response organization (ERO) was a performance deficiency that was within Susquehannas ability to foresee and correct. The performance deficiency is more than minor because it is associated with the ERO Readiness and ERO Performance attributes of the emergency preparedness cornerstone, and adversely affected the cornerstone objective of ensuring that a licensee is capable of implementing adequate measures to protect the health and safety of the public in the event of a radiological emergency. Using IMC 0609, Appendix B, Section 5.9, the finding is of very low safety significance (Green) because the finding was determined to not be an example of the overall dose projection process being incapable of providing technically adequate estimates of radioactive material releases; the deficiency was limited to the TSC staff which in fact had the capability of performing dose projections and was only limited by the lack of procedural guidance. The cause of this finding has a cross-cutting aspect in the area of Documentation, because Susquehanna did not ensure that their organization creates and maintains complete, accurate and up-to-date documentation. Specifically, Susquehanna did not provide emergency plan implementing procedures to enable the TSC dose assessment staff to perform dose projections for all required radioactive material releases [H.7]. |
