Background

The Emergency Response Coordinator (ERC) position is a Crystal River Energy Complex position that serves CR-3 and co-located fossil and natural gas plants. This position is currently the individual responsible for the command and control function for all fires at the energy complex.

The ERC is also the designated medical responder for medical emergencies and is Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) certified. As this position has been available at the energy complex for many years, CR-3 incorporated the position into the IOEP. Due to organizational restructuring, the ERC position is being eliminated at the Crystal River Energy Complex. As a result, CR-3 will

U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Attachment 1 3F0119-02 Page 2 of 6 be replacing the ERC with a strategy that uses other existing CR-3 positions that still satisfies the regulatory requirements for fire response and medical response.

A review of the regulations and a benchmark of the approved IOEPs of other nuclear power plants that have entered decommissioning since 2013, has shown that a position with this level of qualification is not required to meet the requirements of 10 CFR 50.47 and Appendix E to 10 CFR 50.

Technical Analysis 10 CFR 50.47 states in part, that On-shift licensee responsibilities for emergency response are unambiguously defined and adequate staff to provide initial facility accident response is maintained at all times. There is also a requirement that the interfaces among various onsite response activities and offsite support and response activities are specified. 10 CFR 50, Appendix E, states that emergency facilities shall have adequate supplies for appropriate emergency first aid treatment. Additionally, the emergency response program is to provide for training and periodic drills for fire control teams, first aid and rescue teams, and medical support personnel, amongst others. These requirements were satisfied with the availability of the Emergency Response Coordinator, who was always within a rapid response range and was qualified for medical response and firefighting activities among others not required by the emergency response regulations.

During the development of the draft ISFSI-Only Emergency Plan (IOEP), it was determined that CR-3 would take an exception to the Kewaunee Nuclear Plant IOEP being reviewed by the NRC staff. The Kewaunee draft IOEP had personnel trained in American Red Cross techniques and methods as their medical response personnel and addressed the fire response by stating that the response would be as identified in the site Fire Protection Plan. Since CR-3 already was using the ERC for fire and medical response, for convenience the decision was made to use the ERC in this position in the Emergency Plan, instead of training others. During the staffs review of the draft CR-3 Permanently Defueled Emergency Plan, a question was asked requesting additional information on the medical qualifications of the ERC. DEF responded that the ERC was Emergency Medical Services (ambulance) Responder qualified. Therefore, eliminating the ERC, and replacing the position with plant personnel trained to an acceptable level (i.e., American Red Cross Basic First Aid (or equivalent)) would be considered a reduction in effectiveness, requiring a LAR to obtain approval of these Emergency Plan changes.

With the elimination of the ERC position at the Crystal River Energy Complex, CR-3 will be solely responsible for providing these functions as delineated in the IOEP. CR-3 is training appropriate personnel to satisfy the requirements and functions of the IOEP, such that there will not be any period where the facility is not adequately staffed. Medical response for the facility will be provided by training all CR-3 shift personnel in American Red Cross Basic First Aid (or equivalent) techniques and methods for basic life support to injured persons. These positions will also be trained in use of the Automatic Emergency Defibrillator (AED) and Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR). This function will also determine if additional medical assistance is required and will be responsible to request transportation for injured persons to a medical facility, as required.

Sufficient medical supplies will be located within the Security Operations Center inside the protected area. The actual response time for this medical response function is expected to decrease as the Security personnel are already within the ISFSI protected area. The ERC is not dedicated to the CR-3 site and could be at another facility performing a different function, thereby increasing the response time by having to enter the protected area.

U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Attachment 1 3F0119-02 Page 3 of 6 The ERC is fully trained in firefighting techniques and is the designated position to take command and control during a fire, and to interface with the offsite fire department that would be brought in to combat large fires. CR-3 has been maintaining higher performance standards for these positions in implementing the IOEP than the other decommissioning plants that have reached the ISFSI only stage.

With the elimination of the ERC position at the Crystal River Energy Complex, DEF will ensure that fire extinguishers are available for use by the on-shift personnel inside the protected area.

Additionally, transient combustibles are controlled in the protected area, a sprinkler system is installed inside the Security Operations Center (SOC) within the protected area, and a fire hydrant is available inside the protected area to supply water for mitigating or extinguishing fires. DEF will train all CR-3 shift employees on how to use a fire extinguisher to fight small fires. The Emergency Coordinator (EC) will contact the offsite fire response organization in the event of a fire within the protected area. These measures are identified in the CR-3 ISFSI Fire Protection Plan. The actual response time for the fire protection functions to occur is expected to decrease as any potential delay in the ERC accessing the protected area will no longer occur.

The spent fuel is protected inside sealed steel canisters stored within hardened concrete horizontal storage modules, therefore, the lower potential for a fire to occur combined with the fire protection features and administrative controls described above, support the change in responsible personnel. Additionally, the Fire Protection Plan for CR-3 structures outside the ISFSI has also evolved, from primary response being the plant fire brigade to primary response being the offsite fire response organization. This compilation of measures ensures that the fire response for an ISFSI facility is adequately supported by personnel with a fire extinguisher and a telephone.

The SOC is the primary command center for the protected area, but any location with communication capability would be acceptable for requesting assistance from offsite responders.

These changes described above do not prevent implementation of any of the Emergency Plan functions. The revised IOEP continues to meet the requirements of 10 CFR 50, Appendix E and 10 CFR 50.47(b) Planning Standards. This change will make the CR-3 IOEP consistent with the IOEPs of the Zion Nuclear Power Station, Kewaunee Power Station; Vermont Nuclear Power Station; and San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station.

No Significant Hazards Determination In accordance with 10 CFR 50.90, Application for amendment of license, construction permit, or early site permit, Duke Energy Florida, LLC (DEF), requests NRC approval of this change to the site Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation (ISFSI) Only Emergency Plan (IOEP) of the removal of the Emergency Response Coordinator (ERC) position from the IOEP. This position was identified in the medical response function and the fire protection function described in the IOEP. The functions will be satisfied using other personnel on shift with appropriate qualifications and experience.

DEF has evaluated whether a significant hazards consideration is involved with the proposed amendment by focusing on the three conditions set forth in 10 CFR 50.92, Issuance of amendment, discussed below:

1. Does the proposed amendment involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated?

The proposed amendment would modify the CR-3 facility operating license by revising the emergency plan. CR-3 has permanently ceased operation and is permanently defueled.

U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Attachment 1 3F0119-02 Page 4 of 6 Occurrence of postulated accidents associated with spent fuel stored in a spent fuel pool is no longer credible in a spent fuel pool devoid of such fuel. The UFSAR for NUHOMS Certificate of Compliance (CoC) 1004 states most accidents are not credible and the accident analysis demonstrates that none of the hypothetical accidents analyzed has any consequential effect on the public. Many of the analyzed events, like a fire at the ISFSI, have no radiological release. The proposed amendment has no effect on the capability of any plant or ISFSI System, Structure, or Components (SSC) to perform its design function.

The proposed amendment would not increase the likelihood of the malfunction of any ISFSI SSC as there are no hardware or software modifications associated with this change. The proposed amendment would have no effect on any of the previously evaluated accidents in the ISFSI UFSAR for CoC 1004.

The specific non-editorial changes of the emergency plan revision only reassign the medical and fire response responsibilities from one individual title, the Emergency Response Coordinator, to plant specific personnel.

A medical emergency may be the result of some event within the plant or ISFSI protected area. However, the qualification or response time of the individuals providing basic first aid or contacting offsite responders for additional medical assistance would have no impact on any accident or event scenario and will not change the bounding accident or event consequences to the onsite personnel or the general public.

Likewise, a fire emergency may be the result of an onsite event, but a calculation performed by DEF demonstrates that the design basis fire analyzed in the UFSAR for CoC 1004 is bounding and would not create a release. The CR-3 Fire Protection Program allows for plant personnel to attempt to put out small fires with fire extinguishers but requires offsite fire response organization to be called for assistance. The person who makes the call for this assistance does not need to be highly trained in firefighting techniques, and being able to make the call more rapidly can only be considered a beneficial change.

The proposed amendment would not increase the likelihood of the malfunction of any ISFSI SSC. The proposed amendment would have no effect on any of the previously evaluated accidents in the UFSAR for CoC 1004.

2 Does the proposed amendment create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated?

The proposed amendment constitutes a revision of the emergency planning function commensurate with the ongoing and anticipated reduction in staff at CR-3.

The proposed amendment does not involve a physical alteration of the ISFSI. No new or different types of equipment will be installed and there are no physical modifications to existing equipment as a result of the proposed amendment. Similarly, the proposed amendment would not physically change any SSC utilized in the mitigation of any postulated accidents (such as fire protection equipment). Thus, no new initiators or precursors of a new or different kind of accident are created. Furthermore, the proposed amendment does not create the possibility of a new failure mode associated with any equipment or personnel failures. The credible events for the ISFSI remain unchanged and the resultant consequences are unchanged.

U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Attachment 1 3F0119-02 Page 5 of 6 Therefore, the proposed amendment does not create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any previously evaluated.

3. Does the proposed amendment involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety?

Because the 10 CFR Part 50 license for CR-3 no longer authorizes operation of the reactor or emplacement or retention of fuel into the reactor vessel, as specified in 10 CFR 50.82(a)(2),

the occurrence of postulated accidents associated with reactor operation is no longer credible.

With all spent nuclear fuel transferred out of wet storage from the spent fuel pools and placed in dry storage within the ISFSI, a fuel handling accident is no longer credible. The accident analyses presented in the ISFSI UFSAR for CoC 1004 demonstrates that there are no accidents or events that will result in any type of significant release, with most accidents having no radiological release.

The proposed amendment does not involve a change in the ISFSIs design, configuration, or operation. The proposed amendment does not affect either the way in which the ISFSI structures, systems, and components perform their safety function or their design margins.

Because there is no change to the physical design of the ISFSI, there is no change to these margins.

Therefore, the proposed amendment does not involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety.

Based on the above, DEF concludes that the proposed amendment presents no significant hazards consideration under the standards set forth in 10 CFR 50.92(c), and accordingly a finding of no significant hazards consideration is justified.

Applicable Regulatory Requirements/Criteria The regulatory requirements, as exempted, are discussed below:

Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR), Section 50.47, Emergency Plans, set forth emergency plan requirements for nuclear power plant facilities. The regulations in 10 CFR 50.47(b)(2) state, in part:

On-shift licensee responsibilities for emergency response are unambiguously defined and adequate staff to provide initial facility accident response is maintained at all times, and the interfaces among various onsite response activities and offsite support and response activities are specified.

Section 50.47(b) establishes the standards that emergency response plans must meet for NRC staff to make a positive finding that there is reasonable assurance that the licensee can and will take adequate protective measures in the event of a radiological emergency.

Planning Standard (2) discusses the on-shift responsibilities and interface requirements with offsite responders.

Planning Standard (8) discusses adequate emergency response facilities and equipment to support the emergency response.

U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Attachment 1 3F0119-02 Page 6 of 6 Planning Standard (12) discusses medical services for contaminated injured individuals.

10 CFR 50 Appendix E, Section IV Emergency Facilities and Equipment, Section E.4 requires facilities and medical supplies at the site for appropriate emergency first aid treatment.

DEF proposes to revise the IOEP to replace the Emergency Response Coordinator (ERC), a position that provides support for the entire Crystal River Energy Complex with fire response, medical response, and other non-emergency plan related response activities, with CR-3 personnel on shift and located within the protected area.

All spent nuclear fuel is located within sealed steel canisters with concrete overpacks stored within the ISFSI protected area and accidents involving the fuel or allowing releases of radioactive material are not credible. The amount of work being performed in radiologically contaminated areas is essentially zero, and most energy sources have been turned off so the likelihood of an accident, fire, or an injury is very small. The IOEP and the ISFSI Fire Protection Plan require offsite response to take a primary role for all but the smallest of events. Requiring Emergency Medical Technician certified personnel for injury response or having firefighting qualified personnel to use a fire extinguisher or call offsite fire department is not necessary.

DEF continues to satisfy the regulatory requirements identified above. The CR-3 IOEP continues to require that on-shift responsibilities are spelled out, adequate facilities and equipment/supplies are available and personnel with Basic first aid certification are on-site and available at all times, and personnel are aware how to use fire extinguishers to put out small fires and when to call for offsite assistance.

Conclusion Based on the considerations discussed above, (1) there is reasonable assurance that the health and safety of the public will not be endangered by operation in the proposed manner, (2) such activities will be conducted in compliance with the Commissions regulations, and (3) the issuance of the amendment will not be inimical to the common defense and security or to the health and safety of the public.

ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATION A review has determined that the proposed amendment would change a requirement with respect to installation or use of a facility component located within the restricted area, as defined in 10 CFR 20, or would change an inspection or surveillance requirement. However, the proposed amendment does not involve (i) a significant hazards consideration, (ii) a significant change in the types or significant increase in the amounts of any effluent that may be released offsite, or (iii) a significant increase in individual or cumulative occupational radiation exposure. Accordingly, the proposed amendment meets the eligibility criterion for categorical exclusion set forth in 10 CFR 52.22(c)(9). Therefore, pursuant to 10 CFR 51.22(b), no environmental impact statement or environmental assessment need be prepared in connection with the proposed amendment.

1.0 INTRODUCTION

Crystal River Unit 3 Nuclear Plant (CR-3) was safely shutdown on September 26, 2009. On February 20, 2013, by letter 3F0213-07, Duke Energy provided certification to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) required by 10 CFR 50.82(a)(1)(i) and (ii) that CR-3 has permanently ceased operations and that all fuel has been permanently removed from the reactor vessel. Subsequently, all spent fuel has been transferred to the on-site INDEPENDENT SPENT FUEL STORAGE INSTALLATION (ISFSI) facility.

The CR-3 ISFSI Only Emergency Plan (IOEP) describes the plan for responding to emergencies that may arise at the stations ISFSI. In this condition, no reactor operations can take place and all irradiated fuel is removed from the Spent Fuel Pool. This IOEP adequately addresses the risks associated with CR-3s current conditions.

As provided in the ISFSI storage system UFSARs, the analyses of the potential radiological impacts of postulated off-normal, natural phenomenon, and accident events in an ISFSI-Only condition indicates that any releases would result in a dose to the public below the radiation limits established in 10 CFR 72.106(b). Exposure levels, which warrant pre-planned response measures, are generally limited to the ISFSI pad and nearby vicinity, and for this reason; radiological emergency planning is focused on this area.

IOEP REV. 1 Page 1-1

1.1 PURPOSE The purpose of the IOEP is to assure an adequate level of preparedness to cope with the spectrum of emergencies that could be postulated to occur. This Plan integrates the necessary elements to provide effective emergency response considering cooperation and coordination of organizations expected to respond to emergencies.

1.2 SCOPE The IOEP is developed to respond to potential radiological emergencies at the CR-3 ISFSI. Because there are no postulated off-normal, natural phenomenon, or accident events that would result in offsite dose consequences large enough to require offsite emergency planning, the overall scope of this plan delineates the actions necessary to safeguard onsite personnel. The concepts presented in this plan address the applicable regulations stipulated in 10 CFR 50.47, Emergency Plans, and 10 CFR 50 Appendix E, Emergency Planning and Preparedness for Production and Utilization Facilities. The Plan is consistent with the applicable guidelines established in NUREG-0654/FEMA-REP-1, Revision 1, Criteria for Preparation and Evaluation of Radiological Emergency Response Plans and Preparedness in Support of Nuclear Power Plants and NEI 99-01, Development of Emergency Action Levels for Non-Passive Reactors, Rev. 6.

Exemptions from selected portions of 10 CFR 50.47 and 10 CFR 50 Appendix E for CR-3 were granted by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) on March 30, 2015 (ADAMS Accession Number: ML15058A906).

The IOEP, Revision 0, was approved per NRC Safety Evaluation dated March 22, 2017.

IOEP REV. 1 Page 1-2

2.0 DISCUSSION 2.1 OVERVIEW OF ISFSI-ONLY EMERGENCY PLAN (IOEP)

In the event of an emergency at the CR-3 ISFSI, actions are required to identify and assess the nature of the emergency and to bring it under control in a manner that protects the health and safety of onsite personnel. This Plan describes the organization and responsibilities of Duke Energy for implementing emergency measures. It describes interfaces with Federal, State of Florida, and Citrus County organizations, which may be notified in the event of an emergency, and may provide assistance. Emergency services are provided by local public and private entities.

Fire, rescue and law enforcement services are provided by Citrus County.

Ambulance service is provided by Nature Coast Emergency Medical Services.

Medical services are provided by Bayfront Health Seven Rivers hospital.

CR-3 is licensed under the requirements of 10 CFR Part 50, Domestic Licensing of Production and Utilization Facilities. Consistent with the requirements of 10 CFR Part 50, this Plan is based on the requirements of 10 CFR Part 50, Section 50.47(b) and Appendix E, Emergency Planning and Preparedness for Production and Utilization Facilities, with approved exemptions. Sections 5.0 thru 20.0 of this Plan address the standards outlined in 10 CFR 50.47(b)(1) through (16). In addition, the Plan is also intended to meet appropriate State of Florida and U.S. NRC regulations in accordance with Duke Energy's Operating License (No. DPR 72). CR-3 is licensed to store spent fuel in the CR-3 ISFSI under the General License provisions of 10 CFR 72.210 and 10 CFR 72.212.

Because the analyses of the credible design basis events and consequences indicate there are no postulated accidents that would result in off-site dose consequences that are large enough to require off-site emergency planning, emergencies are divided into two classifications: 1) Notification of UNUSUAL EVENT and 2) ALERT. This classification scheme has been discussed and agreed upon with responsible off-site organizations and is compatible with the State Plan.

IOEP REV. 1 Page 2-1

2.1 OVERVIEW OF ISFSI-ONLY EMERGENCY PLAN (IOEP) (Continued)

Duke Energy is responsible for planning and implementing emergency measures associated with the CR-3 ISFSI. This Plan is provided to meet that responsibility. To carry out specific emergency measures discussed in this Plan, detailed implementing procedures are established and maintained. Appendix A provides a listing of the implementing procedures for this Plan.

In addition to the description of activities and steps that can be implemented during a potential emergency, this Plan also provides a general description of the steps taken to recover from an emergency. It also describes the training, drills, exercises, planning, and coordination appropriate to maintain an adequate level of emergency preparedness.

2.2 FACILITY DESCRIPTION The CR-3 Plant is located at Red Level, Florida in Citrus County, about 5 miles south of Levy County. The site is 7.5 miles northwest of Crystal River, Florida and 90 miles north of St. Petersburg, Florida. CR-3 is situated on the Gulf of Mexico, within the Crystal River Energy Complex.

CR-3 formerly consisted of a single unit nominal 911 MWe / 2609 MWth Nuclear Power Plant, utilizing a Babcock & Wilcox (B&W) Company (currently AREVA) pressurized water reactor (PWR). The unit is certified to have ceased power operations and is permanently defueled in accordance with 10 CFR 50.82(a)(1)(i) and (ii). All spent fuel has been transferred to the CR-3 INDEPENDENT SPENT FUEL STORAGE INSTALLATION (ISFSI) which is located to the east of the CR-3 Plant. The CR-3 ISFSI is a robust and high integrity facility for the spent fuel storage system. This facility is designed to prevent the release of radioactivity in the event of accidents, including environmental phenomena (e.g., earthquake and flooding).

IOEP REV. 1 Page 7-1

8.0 EMERGENCY CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM 8.1 STANDARD CLASSIFICATION OF EMERGENCIES Duke Energy utilizes NEI 99-01, Development of Emergency Action Levels for Non-Passive Reactors Rev. 6, as its basis for classifying emergencies. The classification system referenced in NEI 99-01, Rev. 6 has been endorsed by the NRC and offers a standard method for classifying emergencies. EALs are addressed in site procedures and the ISFSI Only Emergency Plan EAL Basis Manual (IOEP EALBM).

This IOEP addresses two (2) classifications of emergencies (UNUSUAL EVENT and ALERT), which represent a hierarchy of emergencies based on potential accidents that could occur at the CR-3 ISFSI. Once indications are available that an EAL is met, the event is assessed and classified, and the corresponding emergency classification level is promptly declared as soon as possible.

8.1.1 Unusual Event Events are in progress or have occurred which indicate a potential degradation of the level of safety of the CR-3 ISFSI or indicate a security threat to facility protection has been initiated. No release of radioactive material requiring off-site response or monitoring are expected. The State of Florida and the NRC are notified of an UNUSUAL EVENT.

The purpose of the UNUSUAL EVENT classification is to bring the on-shift staff to a state of readiness and to provide for systematic handling of event information and its related decision making.

IOEP REV. 1 Page 8-1

8.1.2 Alert Events are in progress or have occurred which involve an actual or potential substantial degradation of the level of safety of the CR-3 ISFSI or a security event that involves probable life threatening risk to site personnel or damage to ISFSI equipment because of HOSTILE ACTION. Any releases are expected to be limited to small fractions of the EPA PAG exposure levels.

As in the case of the UNUSUAL EVENT, the ALERT classification includes emergency situations which are not expected to threaten the public, but for which notification of the State of Florida and the NRC is required.

8.2 EMERGENCY ACTION LEVELS AND POSTULATED ACCIDENTS Both emergency classifications are characterized by EALs consisting of specific instrument readings and/or observations which are used to tell the CR-3 ISS that an initiating condition has been met. These EALs are used to assure that the initial classification of emergencies can be accomplished rapidly, allowing for the prompt identification of the nature of mitigating activities needed.

EALs and Initiating Conditions are provided under the following categories for the CR-3 ISFSI:

  • Hazards and Other Conditions The ISFSI UFSAR describes the Design Basis Accidents (DBAs) applicable to the CR-3 ISFSI, along with the radiological dose calculation results. Specific guidance for classifying emergencies is found in site procedures and the ISFSI Only Emergency Plan EAL Basis Manual (IOEP EALBM).

EALs shall be reviewed with State of Florida and Citrus County government authorities on an ANNUAL basis.

IOEP REV. 1 Page 8-2

9.0 NOTIFICATION METHODS AND PROCEDURES To provide prompt notification of affected personnel and emergency response organizations in the event of an emergency at the CR-3 ISFSI, Duke Energy has established means for notification and dissemination of emergency messages.

9.1 BASIS FOR NOTIFICATION The notification of personnel and emergency response organizations is commensurate with the hazard posed by the emergency. The EMERGENCY CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM described in Section 8.0 is the primary bases for notification and has been mutually agreed upon by applicable State and Federal response organizations.

The EC is responsible for identifying the appropriate emergency classification, declaring the emergency and initiating emergency notifications.

9.2 MEANS OF NOTIFICATION Various communications systems, as described in Section 10.0 are available to perform emergency notifications. The EC is the primary individual for initiating notifications; however, the EC may designate an individual to carry out appropriate notifications. Implementing procedures and various directories identify organizations and individuals to be notified and contain appropriate listings of telephone numbers.

The following sections describe the means of notifying, alerting, and mobilizing the various emergency response organizations or individuals.

13.0 ACCIDENT ASSESSMENT Effective response to a potential emergency situation requires assessment to determine the nature of the emergency and its actual and potential consequences.

Duke Energy has established various methods to evaluate and monitor the effects of a potential emergency at the CR-3 ISFSI and has the appropriate means to assure adequate assessment.

The ASSESSMENT ACTIVITIES required to evaluate a particular emergency depend on the specific nature and classification of the emergency. The ISS/EC is responsible for the initial measurement of ISFSI dose rates after an off-normal, natural phenomena, or accident event. The EALs identify the parameter value to determine the emergency condition. Classification of events is performed by the ISS/EC in accordance with the EAL scheme.

If the measured ISFSI dose rates exceed the EAL threshold, the ISS/EC then ensures a radioactive RELEASE assessment in the vicinity of the affected storage module or cask is performed. After completing the assessment, the EC will contact the Resource Manager for assistance in interpreting the radioactive RELEASE assessment results.

Notification of the radiological RELEASE assessment is in accordance with Section 9.0.

IOEP REV. 1 Page 13-1

14.0 PROTECTIVE ACTIONS Protective actions for onsite personnel are provided for their health and safety.

Implementation guidelines for onsite protective actions are provided in implementing procedures.

Additionally, implementing procedures provide for a range of protective actions (e.g.

relocation of personnel and personnel take cover) to protect onsite personnel during HOSTILE ACTIONS.

14.1 CR-3 ISFSI ACCOUNTABILTY The EC has the authority to initiate personnel ACCOUNTABILITY of the CR-3 ISFSI.

ACCOUNTABILTY should be considered and used as a protective action whenever a risk to health or safety exists and prudence dictates. If personnel ACCOUNTABILITY is required, at the direction of the EC, all individuals at the facility (including employees without emergency assignments, visitors and contractor personnel) shall be notified of the emergency.

When ACCOUNTABILTY is initiated, personnel will stop work, shut down potentially hazardous equipment, and proceed to the pre-designated LOCAL ASSEMBLY AREAS. ACCOUNTABILITY will take place and the results will be reported to the EC when requested.

ACOUNTABILITY of all personnel inside the ISFSI PROTECTED AREA should be accomplished within 60 minutes after event classification and maintained thereafter at the discretion of the EC. If personnel are unaccounted for, teams shall be dispatched to locate the personnel.

IOEP REV. 1 Page 14-1

14.2 CRYSTAL RIVER ENERGY COMPLEX ASSEMBLY, SHELTERING, OR RELOCATION Other areas of the Crystal River Energy Complex may be affected by the need to relocate personnel. If required, the EC will determine the specific areas that need to have personnel relocated. Personnel and visitors located outside of the ISFSI Protected Area but within the SITE BOUNDARY will be directed to report to an assembly area or exit the site as appropriate. Relocation of personnel in these areas of the Crystal River Energy Complex will be in accordance with established procedures.

The EC is responsible for controlling access to the CR-3 ISFSI site when the IOEP is activated.

IOEP REV. 1 Page 14-2

15.0 RADIOLOGICAL EXPOSURE CONTROL CR-3 maintains a radiological exposure control program to assure that protection against radiological exposure, as set forth in 10 CFR Part 20 and Chapter 170J 1 of the State of Florida Statutes, is provided. This program is implemented through the "Radiological Protection Standard" which covers both normal and emergency radiation protection measures.

Means for controlling radiological exposures in an emergency are established for emergency workers. The means for controlling radiological exposures shall include exposure guidelines consistent with EPA Emergency Worker and Lifesaving Activity Protective Action Guides.

15.1 EXPOSURE GUIDELINES During an emergency, doses above normal occupational radiation exposure limits may be authorized by the EC for activities such as saving a life, preservation of valuable equipment, or controlling exposure. Table 15.1 provides exposure guidelines for on-site emergency activities.

15.2 RADIATION PROTECTION The purpose of a Radiation Protection Program is to assure that radiation doses received by personnel are kept as low as reasonably achievable and do not exceed the prescribed limits for both normal and emergency conditions. The established measures to provide this assurance include access control, personnel monitoring, and contamination control.

15.2.1 ACCESS CONTROL During a declared emergency, radiological surveys of the ISFSI pad area will be performed to determine the actual extent of the radiological concern. As necessary, the EC will ensure RCAs and access controls are established to prevent personnel from entering the area. RECOVERY and corrective actions will be planned and executed in a manner that minimizes exposure to personnel.

IOEP REV. 1 Page 15-1

15.2.2 PERSONNEL EXPOSURE MONITORING Personal dosimeters are utilized to monitor the exposure of personnel during normal or emergency conditions. Adequate supplies of dosimeters are maintained for use during an emergency. Procedures describe in detail the types of personal dosimeter devices, the manner in which they are to be used, who is to wear them, and how they are to be cared for.

Emergency worker dose records are maintained in accordance with Radiation Protection procedures.

15.3 CONTAMINATION CONTROL Various contamination control measures are utilized. These include access control measures and means for the decontamination of personnel, areas, and equipment.

These activities are addressed in facility procedures and are briefly described below.

All personnel are monitored for radioactive contamination prior to leaving the site.

During normal or emergency conditions, contamination should be removed from any part of a person's body prior to their leaving the RCA. All personnel decontamination, even during an emergency, will be performed under the supervision of the Radiation Protection Group and in accordance with established procedures.

Portable contamination monitoring instruments are available to frisk personnel for potential contamination.

Documentation of surveys, contamination, and decontamination activities shall be maintained in accordance with Radiation Protection procedures.
