| Title | Adequacy of means to notify populace in EPZ |
| Description | The inspectors identified a finding related to the adequacy of the means established for notification of members of the populace in the plume exposure emergency planning zone. Because the finding affected the reactor safety emergency preparedness cornerstone objective, the finding is greater than minor. The finding also was determined to have a potential safety significance greater than very low significance because of the potential degradation of the risk significant planning standard 10 CFR 50.47(b)(5), in that less than 100 percent of the population in the emergency planning zone would be alerted as required by the alert notification system design. This is an unresolved item because additional information is required to determine both the compliance aspects and significance of the finding. One element of the unresolved item is the adequacy of the licensees audit program to be able to identify poor performance or adverse trends by the office of Nuclear Planning and Response Programs implementation of the radio program. Lack of an adequate audit program would result in a lack of identification of problems, which would allow a degraded condition to continue to worsen. The licensee did not conduct audits of the Nuclear Planning and Response Programs, which reduced their opportunity to identify any potential concern in implementation of that program. |
