| Title | Inadequate Evacuation Time Estimate Submittals |
| Description | A finding of very low safety significance and a NCV of 10 CFR 50.54(q)(2) associated with 10 CFR 50.47(b)(10) and 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix E, Section IV.4, was identified for failing to maintain the effectiveness of the Byron Station Emergency Plan, as a result of failing to provide the station evacuation time estimate (ETE) to the responsible offsite response organizations (OROs) by the required date. Exelon submitted the Byron Station ETE to the NRC on December 12, 2012, prior to the required due date of December 22, 2012. However, the NRC completeness review found the ETE to be incomplete due to Exelon fleet common and site-specific deficiencies, preventing Exelon from providing the ETE to responsible OROs and from updating site-specific protective action strategies as necessary. The NRC discussed its concerns regarding the completeness of the ETE in a teleconference with Exelon on June 10, 2013, and on September 5, 2013, Exelon resubmitted the ETE. The NRC again found the ETE to be incomplete. The issue was a performance deficiency because it involved a failure to comply with a regulation that was under Exelons control to identify and prevent. The licensee entered this issue into their Corrective Action Program (CAP) and re-submitted a new revision of the Byron Station ETE to the NRC on May 2, 2014, which was found to be complete by the NRC. The finding was more than minor because it was associated with the Emergency Preparedness cornerstone attribute of Procedure Quality and it adversely affected the cornerstone objective of ensuring that the licensee was capable of implementing adequate measures to protect the health and safety of the public in the event of a radiological emergency. The finding was of very low safety significance (Green), because it was a failure to comply with a non risk-significant portion of 10 CFR 50.47(b)(10). The cause of the finding was related to the cross-cutting aspect of Human Performance, Documentation (H.7). |
