• Added that initiating conditions are also established to assist in making decisions.

• Clarified the information provided in the figure for offsite emergency organization.

• Added a description of Core Damage Assessor.

• Clarified that the dispatch of site monitoring teams for a Site Area Emergency is specific to Browns Ferry and Watts Bar.

• Changed subsection title to clarify that the Operations Duty Specialist is making, not receiving notifications.

• Updated the title of Radioactive Material Specialist to the current title, Radwaste Shipper.

• Updated the figure depicting the Central Emergency Control Center (CECC) to reflect the new configuration of the CECC following remodeling.

• Changed EMTs to EMT (singular) to reflect Fire Brigade manning.

• Updated wording concerning eight year cycle to more closely align with wording in 10 CFR 50 Appendix E and NUREG-0654.

• Updated the title of the medical training facility from Safety and Emergency Response Training Academy (SERTA) to Emergency Response Training Center (ERTC).
