| Title | Failure to Timely Augment On-shift Staffing |
| Description | An NRC-identified, low to moderate safety significance (White), apparent violation (AV) of 10 CFR 50.54(q) was identified in that the licensee failed to meet the requirements of 10 CFR 50.47(b)(2). The Technical Support Center (TSC), Operations Support Center (OSC), and Emergency Operations Facility (EOF) were not activated until approximately two and one-half hours after the Alert declaration due to delays in the notification and response of the Brunswick emergency response organization (ERO). 10 CFR 50.54(q) requires that the facility shall follow and maintain in effect Emergency Plans which meet the standards in 10 CFR 50.47(b). 10 CFR 50.47(b)(2), states, On-shift facility licensee responsibilities for emergency response are unambiguously defined, adequate staffing to provide initial facility accident response in key functional areas is maintained at all times, timely augmentation of response capabilities is available and the interfaces among various onsite response activities and offsite support and response activities are specified. Brunswick Plant Emergency Procedures 0PEP-02.6.12, 0PEP-02.6.26, and 0PEP-02.6.27 require activation of the OSC, TSC and EOF respectively within 60 75 minutes following the declaration of an ALERT or higher emergency classification. Contrary to the above, on June 6, 2010, the Brunswick Steam Electric Plant ERO failed to provide initial facility accident response through timely augmentation of on-shift staffing after declaration of an alert at Brunswick. This resulted in the delay of OSC, TSC, and EOF activation by 75 minutes. The licensees failure to maintain its emergency plan in effect is a performance deficiency and an apparent violation (AV) of 10 CFR 50.54(q). The cause of this finding was directly related to the cross-cutting aspect of, The licensee conducts self-assessments at an appropriate frequency; such assessments are of sufficient depth, are comprehensive, are appropriately objective, and are self-critical. The licensee periodically assesses the effectiveness of oversight groups and programs such as CAP, and policies. P.3(a) |
