| Title | Licensee-Identified Violation |
| Description | 10 CFR 50.54q(2) requires, in part, that the license holder shall follow and maintain the effectiveness of an emergency plan that meets the requirements in appendix E and, for nuclear power reactor licensees, the planning standards of 50.47(b). 10 CFR 50.47(b)(14) requires, in part, periodic exercises be conducted to evaluate major portions of emergency response capabilities and develop and maintain key skills. Exelon procedure EP-AA-122-100, Drills and Exercise Planning and Scheduling, Revision 6, implements this planning standard and requires health physics drills be performed every 6 months. Contrary to the above, from December 28, 2015 to July 15, 2016 Exelon failed to appropriately implement its approved emergency plan by not meeting planning standard 10 CFR 50.47(b)(14). Specifically, Exelon failed to conduct and document the performance of a required health physics drill for the second half of 2015 as required by step 4.4 of Exelon procedure EP-AA-122-100. This performance deficiency was determined to be more than minor because it impacted the Emergency Preparedness cornerstone objective of ERO readiness to ensure that Exelon is capable of implementing adequate measures to protect the health and safety of the public and its workers in the event of a radiological emergency. The finding was evaluated using IMC 0609 Appendix B, Emergency Preparedness Significance Determination Process. The finding was determined to affect planning standard 10 CFR 50.47(b)(14) and matched an example of a degraded planning standard function. Therefore, the finding was determined to be of very low safety significance (Green). Exelon has entered this issue into its CAP as IR 02686128. |
