CRYSTAL RIVER UNIT 3 DOCKET NUMBER 50 - 302 / LICENSE NUMBER DPR - 72 PERMANENTLY DEFUELED EMERGENCY PLAN, REVISION 2, AND EMERGENCY ACTION LEVEL BASES MANUAL, REVISION 1, RESPONSE TO REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ENCLOSURE 1 RESPONSE TO REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Page 1 of 2 3F0316-03 Enclosure 1 RESPONSE TO REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION By letter dated August 27, 2015 (Reference 1), Duke Energy Florida, LLC., previously known as Duke Energy Florida, Inc., (DEF) requested that the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) review and approve License Amendment Request (LAR) #318, Revision 0, Permanently Defueled Emergency Plan (PDEP), Revision 2, and Emergency Action Level Bases Manual, Revision 1. In a letter dated February 4, 2016, the NRC provided a request for additional information (RAI) regarding LAR #318, Revision 0 (Reference 2).
The RAI questions and the Crystal River Unit 3 (CR-3) responses are provided below. These responses clarify the revision number process used by DEF and the removal of the reference to the Emergency Management Network (EMNET) tool from the Permanently Defueled Emergency Plan (PDEP).
CR-3-RAI-01 In a letter dated May 23, 2014 (ADAMS Accession No. ML14154A408), DEF submitted Revision 1 to the PDEP and Revision 1 to the Permanently Defueled EAL Bases Manual. In a letter dated October 6, 2014 (ADAMS Accession No. ML14288A122), DEF submitted Revision 2 to the PDEP. Finally, in the August 27, 2015, letter cited above, DEF submitted Revision 2 to the PDEP and Revision 1 to the Permanently Defueled EAL Bases Manual (duplicate numbers, in both cases, to previous submittals). Please explain the revision numbering process for both documents.
RAI-01 Response When the PDEP and Permanently Defueled EAL Bases Manual were submitted on September 26, 2013 for staff review, a decision had not been made as to how any additional changes made to these documents during the staff review and approval process would be tracked. Subsequently, an internal convention, which used the same revision numbering (i.e.
Rev. 1, Rev. 2) system for these documents that is used for controlled documents at the station after they are issued, was adopted to differentiate versions of the PDEP and EAL Bases Manual created as responses to Requests for Additional Information (RAI) were submitted. In hindsight, a unique numbering system should have been used to track these draft revisions while initial approval of these documents was still in progress. This condition has been entered into the CR3 corrective action program.
Following receipt of NRC approval on March 31, 2015, both the PDEP and the Permanently Defueled EAL Bases Manual were formally issued at the station as Revision 0.
A subsequent revision to the PDEP was made under 10 CFR 50.54 (q) to clarify requirements for Self Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA) training for emergency response personnel. This resulted in the formal issue of Revision 1.
During preparation of LAR #318, the same internal numbering convention was carried forward, resulting in confusion between the current draft submittals under review as the PDEP, Revision 2, and Permanently Defueled EAL Bases Manual, Revision 1, and the previous draft submittals made under LAR #315. Although the revision numbering of the documents submitted appears to be a duplication, the documents submitted under LAR #318 correctly reflect the planned changes for which staff approval is requested.
U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Page 2 of 2 3F0316-03 Enclosure 1 CR-3-RAI-02 In the May 23, 2014, DEF letter cited above, containing Revision 1 to the PDEP, it is noted in the Summary of Changes that references were deleted from the Emergency Management Network (EMnet) as the back-up communications system to the State Watch Office. The August 27, 2015, DEF letter containing Revision 2 to the PDEP, also states Deleted EMnet.
Please explain the revision process regarding the elimination of EMnet, since based on DEFs May 23, 2014 correspondence, it is understood that commercial telephones (landlines) or cellular telephones are viewed as the back-up means of communications (to the State Hot Ringdown) with off-site emergency response organizations. Also, please confirm that the State of Florida is in agreement with the means of communication between CR-3 and the State.
RAI-02 Response The August 27, 2015 License Amendment Request contained an administrative error that was not identified, where the summary of changes contained in the PDEP referenced the Emergency Management Network (EMnet) in error. The CR-3 PDEP was issued to the plant on April 1, 2015 as Revision 0 and did not contain any reference to the use or testing of EMnet.
None of the subsequent revisions to the PDEP contained any reference to EMnet. EMnet is no longer used at CR-3 and is not part of the PDEP. A corrected Summary of Changes is included as Enclosure 2 to this letter.
CR-3 confirms that the State of Florida Division of Emergency Management, Radiological Emergency Preparedness Program is in agreement with the current methods of communication, including commercial telephones (landlines) and cellular phones used as back-up communications.
