Rev.1 ATTACHMENT 5 Page 12of15 10 CFR 50.54(q) Effectiveness Evaluation Form Part IV. Description of Emergency Plan Planning Standards, Functions and Program Elements Affected by the Proposed Change (Address each function identified in Attachment 4, 10 CFR 50.54(q) Screening Evaluation Form, Part IV of associated Screen):

10 CFR 50.47(b)(1) Assignment of Responsibility 1a. Responsibility for emergency response is assigned.

10 CFR 50.47(b)(2) Onsite Emergency Organization 2a. Process ensures that onshift emergency response responsibilities are staffed and assigned 10 CFR 50.47(b)(3) Emergency Response Support and Resources 3a. Arrangements for requesting and using off site assistance have been made.

10 CFR 50.47(b)(6) Emergency Communications 6a. Systems are established for prompt communication among principal emergency response organizations.

10 CFR 50.47(b)(7) Public Education and Information 7b. Coordinated dissemination of public information during emergencies is established.

.. dla. Adequate equipment is maintained to support emergency response.

10 CFR 50.47(b)(14) Drills and Exercises 14a. A drill and exercise program (including radiological, medical, health physics and other program areas) is established.

Part V. Description of Impact of the Proposed Change on the Effectiveness of Emergency Plan Functions:

A change is being made to section A.1.a that describes private sector organizations that are part of the overall response organization for the EPZ. Bell South Telephone Company is being changed to AT&T due to AT&T acquiring Bell South Telephone Company. This change in only an update of company name and does not modify the principal organization in the private sector that are part of the overall response organization for the EPZ.

Three changes are being made to section B that describes the site emergency organization.

1. Figure B-1 a, Minimum on-shift ERO staffing requirements for emergencies, Emergency position "Non-Licensed Operator (NLO)" is being changed to "Auxiliary Operator (AO)". This change is needed so the site emergency plan will match the title of the position. An Auxiliary Operator is a Non-Licensed Operator but are not called that at the site and in site procedures. This change continues to ensure On-shift facility licensee responsibilities for emergency response are unambiguously defined.

2. B.9.b that lists organizations that are responsible for early warning or evacuation of the populace has a change to North Carolina Department of Crime Control and Public Safety. The organization name has

-r changed to North Carolina Department of Public Safety. This change is needed so the site emergency plan I aligns with the off-site orQanizations responsible for public health and safety. This change continues to

Rev.1 ATTACHMENT 5 Page 13of15 10 CFR 50.54(q) Effectiveness Evaluation Form ensure responsibility for emergency response is assigned.

3. B.9.h deleted note at bottom of page. The note adds no value to the emergency plan and was used as a reference to appendix 5. Appendix 5 is not being removed as a result of this note deletion. The emergency plan continues to provide a summary of written agreements with the agencies that have responsibilities for emergency preparedness support and for emergency response in the public domain. This change continues to ensure arrangements for requesting and effectively using assistance resources have been made.

Two changes are being made to section C that describes emergency response support and resources.

1. A change is being made to C.1.a which describes individual authorized to request federal assistance.

Procedure SH/0/B/2005/002 (PROTOCOL FOR THE FIELD MONITORING COORDINATOR DURING EMERGENCY CONDITIONS) has been superseded by fleet procedure AD-EP-ALL-0203. This does not change who is authorized to request federal assistance. This change continues to describe specific persons by title authorized to request Federal assistance as described in NUREG 0654 section 11.C.1.

2. C.1.b, deleted first sentence "The Agreement letter between Duke Energy and DOE - Savannah River is found in Appendix 5." This sentence is longer accurate since agreement letters were removed from the plan with revision 146. These agreements are verified current through annual recertification of the Catawba Emergency Plan. A copy of the annual recertification (including the agreements) is maintained on file by CNS Emergency Preparedness. The actual agreements are re-confirmed every 3 years and maintained on file by CNS Emergency Preparedness. This change continues to identify and describe the assistance expected from, appropriate State, local, and Federal agencies with responsibilities for coping with emergencies as require by 10 CFR 50, Appendix E.IV.A.

A change is being made due to the deletion of two Decision Line extensions (37706 and 37707) from new Charlotte EOF. There were two Decision Line phones located at the EOF Director's work location. These phones were not relocated to the new EOF on ECll. The purpose of the Decision Line function of DEMNET is for the offsite agencies to coordinate protective action decisions. The EOF Director and Assistant EOF Director are not normally part of those discussions. Extensions are provided for the North and South Carolina State Liaisons in the new EOF. If the offsite agencies wish for the EOF Director or Assistant EOF Director to participate in protective action decisions, he will use the State Liaison's extension. The Catawba Emergency Plan states that a telephone line is dedicated for the EOF Director to the state director at the SERT "via the Decision Line." The equivalent statement in the McGuire Emergency Plan states that telephone line is dedicated for the EOF Director to contact the state director at the SERT, but does not specify the Decision Line. While the two Decision Line DEMNET phones were removed from the EOF Director/Assistant EOF Director's work location, an additional commercial telephone was provided at the Assistant EOF Director's work location. The EOF Director and Assistant EOF Director each have a telephone, in addition to the Polycom conference phone, allowing them to have open lines to NC, SC, and the TSC.

Thus, there is no reduction in the ability of the EOF Director and Assistant EOF Director to communicate protective action recommendations to the Offsite Agencies.

A change is being made to section H which describes the Emergency Facilities and Equipment used by the CNS Emergency Response Organization. Figure H-1 Technical Support Center (TSC), H-2 Operations Support Center (OSC), and H-7 Joint information Center (JIC) are being updated to represent current faculty layout. These facilities were remodeled to improve use and incorporate new technology. The remodeling did not change the function of the facilities or location. This change continues to designate the points of contact and physical locations for use by

tews media during an emergency and continues to ensure adequate facilities are maintained to support emergency 11esponse.

. Rev.1 ATTACHMENT 5 Page 14of15 10 CFR 50.54(q) Effectiveness Evaluation Form A change is being made to section which describes exercises and drills. This change adds references to AD-EG-ALL-1530 (Fire Brigade Training) and AD-EG-ALL-1531 (Selection, Care and Maintenance of Firefighting Ensembles). These procedures are administrative procedures that describe the Fire Brigade program. This change continues ensure periodic drills will be conducted to develop and maintain key skills, and deficiencies identified as a result of exercises or drills will be corrected including Fire Drills.

A change is being made to Appendix 5. A summary of the agreement was added to agreements 1-9 and 11.

Agreement letters were removed from the plan with revision 146. These agreements are verified current through annual recertification of the Catawba Emergency Plan. A copy of the annual recertification (including the agreements) is maintained on file by CNS Emergency Preparedness. The actual agreements are re-confirmed every 3 years and maintained on file by CNS Emergency Preparedness. This change continues to identify and describe the assistance expected from, appropriate State, local, and Federal agencies with responsibilities for coping with emergencies as require by 10 CFR 50, Appendix E.IV.A.

In performing a review, it was discovered that there was an error in the Emergency Plan Manual Revision 148 Attachment 4, 10 CFR 50.54(q) Screening Evaluation Form, and Attachment 5, 10 CFR 50.54(q) Effectiveness Evaluation Form, dated to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission on March 31, 2016.

In Attachments 4 and 5, in the Document and Revision section, the Catawba Emergency Manual Plan Revision was inadvertently listed as 147. The correct Emergency Plan Manual Revision is 148. The Effectiveness Evaluation Form also incorrectly listed the licensing basis as "Catawba Emergency Plan, Revision 146, May 2015 ." The correct revision is "Revision 147, November 2015." The errors have been corrected in the enclosed Attachments 4 and 5.
