Subject:

Request for Exception from NUREG-0737, Supplement 1," Clarification of TMI Action Plan Requirements, Requirements for Emergency Response Capability", dated January 1983; Approval of Alternate Emergency Operations Facility Location

]

1 Ladies and Gentlemen:

By letter dated May 1,1997, (Serial Number 2461) Toledo Edison requested an exception from the Emergency," Operations Facilities (EOF) Guidance of NUREG-0737, Supplement 1

" Clarification of TMI Action Plan Requirements, Requirements for Emergency Response Capability," dated January 1983, for the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station (DBNPS), Unit 1.

The guidance in this NUREG states that a 2ack-up EOF should be provided for facilities with a close-in primary EOF (within 10 miles of the site).

Toledo Edison provided additional information by letter dated July 21,1997 " Response to Request for Additional Information"(Serial Number 2467). Toledo Edison hereby amends the  ;

two previous submittals (Serial Numbers 2461 and 2467) to relocate the Alternate EOF from the l current location at the Toledo Edison Club to the Bay Shore Station. The relocation of the Alternate EOF is in response to a directive by FirstEnergy Corporation, the newly formed parent company of Toledo Edison, to evaluate corporate properties for potential sale.

Toledo Edison is requesting approval for an Alternate EOF to be located at the Bay Shore Station Training Center. This request is in accordance with the guidance provided in SECY letter 96-170, dated August 5,1996, entitled " Assessment of Exceptions Granted for Locations and Staffing Times of Emergency Operation Facilities."

The information contained in the enclosure and attachments and the supplemental information contained in previous submittals should provide the information necessary for evaluation and approval of the request for exception to NUREG-0737, Supplement 1, and the location of the 9804230213 980414 ADOCK 05000346 PDR p PDR

Docket Number 50-346 License Number NPF-3 Serial Number 2531 Enclosure Page1 Davis Besse Nuclear Power Station Request for an Exception from NUREG 0737, Supplement 1

" Clarification of TMI Action Plan Requirements, Requirements for Emergency Response Capability", dated January 1983 Toledo Edison hereby requests exception from NUREG-0737, Supplement 1, " Clarification of TMI Action Plan Requirements, Requirements for Emergency Response Capability", dated January 1983, (NUREG-0737, Supplement 1) for the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station (DBNPS), Unit 1.

REGULATORY POSITION NUREG-0737, Supplement I defines the Emergency Operations Facility (EOF) requirements.

Guidance provided in NUREG-0737, Table 1, Emergency Operations Facility, lists two options.

Option 1 is for two facilities: a close-in Primary EOF (within 10 miles) and a Backup EOF.

Option 2 is for one facility at or beyond 10 miles.

NUREG-0737, Supplement I further states that: "These requirements provided a degree of flexibility within which licensees can exercise management prerogatives in designing and building emergency response facilities (ERF) that satisfy specific needs of each licensee. The forecast consideration regarding ERFs is that they provide adequate capabilities of licensees to respond to emergencies."

In SECY letter 81-509,"NUREG-0696, Criteria for Emergency Operations Facilities for Nuclear Power Reactors," dated August 24,1981, (SECY 81-509) the NRC staff discusses EOF exceptions and states:

"An example of a number of requests relating to EOF location and habitability is a specific request (Enclosure 2) for permission to locate an EOF inside the 10 mile EPZ without provisions for a backup EOF. In this case the licensee is building a fully hardened EOF within the 10 mile EPZ with protection factors in excess of 100 and ventilation systems which wini assure a habitable facility even during a core melt accident. The licensee had concluded that a backup EOF is not necessary because in all scenarios there would be no need to evacuate the primary EOF. The staff proposes to approve this proposal with respect to EOF location (other aspects of the design are under review) as it meets the intent and purpose of NUREG-0696 criteria and the requirements of the regulations (10CFR50.47(b)(8) and 10CFR Part 50 Appendix E IV.E) for adequate  ;

emergency response facilities near site."

r Docket Number 50-346 License Number NPF-3

, Serial Number 2531 Enclosure Page 2

, It should be noted that Enclosure 2 to SECY 81-509 is Toledo Edison's submitted response to l NRC Generic Letter 81-10, " Post TMI Requirements for the Emergency Operations Facility,"

l dated May 27,1981, for DBNPS, Emergency Response Facilities (Serial Number 719).

NRC memorandum from Chilk to Dircks entitled "SECY-81-509 NUREG 0696 Criteria for Emergency Operations Facilities For Nuclear Power Reactors," dated September 30,1981, in response to SECY letter 81-509, denies the Staff authority to approve deviations without Commission approval, but the Commission agreed that the staff could accept an alternate location in place of a backup EOF where licensees had built a close-in hardened EOF.

NRC memorandum dated October 16,1981, from Steve Ramos to all Operating Reactor and Licensing Branch Chiefs entitled " Modification of the Location and Habitability Criteria for Emergency Operations Facilities," provides further clarification of the September 30,1981 memorandum. Requirements for Emergency Operations Facility location, distance from the plant, and the associated protection factors required are listed.

l l SECY letter 96-170, dated August 5,1996, from Taylor to the Commissioners, entitled l " Assessment of Exceptions Granted for Locations and Staffing Times of Emergency Operations

Facilities," (SECY 96-170) specifically addresses exceptions, and it states

" Exceptions to the EOF Guidance Criteria:

( Supplement I to NUREG-0737 (at 24) states that " exemptions from or alternative

! methods ofimplementing these requirements should be discussed with NRC staff and in l

some cases could require commission approval.

The guidance contained in NUREG-0737, Supplement 1, does not constitute in itself regulatory requirements for licensees. Accordingly, the " exemptions" referred to in Supplement I to NUREG-0737 are not exemptions as defmed in the regulations (10CFR50.12) but more accurately are described as " exceptions" from the guidance."

SECY 96-170 further states the following:

" Exceptions to EOF Location Guidance 1

Exceptions to EOF location criteria fall generally into four categories:

l l

1. Exceptions to the primary EOF location.

I

2. Exceptions to the backup EOF location if there is a requirement for a backup EOF.
3. Exceptions for an Alternate EOF or its location when the primary EOF is hardened.

L I

Docket Number 50-346 License Number NPF-3 Serial Number 2531 l Enclosure Page 3

4. Exceptions to the near-site EOF concept in Supplement I to NUREG-0737 (Attachment 2, Notes B and D)

Hardened EOF - located within the 10 mile emergency planning zone with protection factors much greater than 5 and ventilation systems that will ensure a habitable facility even during a core-melt accident."  ;

l SECY 96-170 Attachment 2, Note A states: '

"In response to SECY-81-509, the Commission authorized the staff to approve an ,

alternate location in place of a backup EOF where licensees had built an EOF with a high l degree of habitability within 10 miles of the plant. An alternate location is defined by the l Commission as a facility located between 10 and 20 miles of the plant site where utility and Govemment officials can meet to discuss plant status and appropriate public protective actions, and arrangements have been made to communicate with the Technical 4 Support Center. The seven currently operating sites which have hardened EOFs include Artificial Island, Haddam Neck, Pilgrim, Vermont Yankee, Brunswick, Harris, and WNP2." j EXCEPTION SOUGHT Toledo Edison seeks exception to the EOF guidance criteria specified in NUREG-0737, Supplement 1. Specifically, Toledo Edison requests an exception to allow for the use of an Alternate EOF located 18 straight-line miles from the primary EOF.

By letter dated May 27,1981, (Serial Number 719), Toledo Edison described the centralized management philosophy which located the emergency response facilities in the Davis-Besse Administration Building (DBAB). The DBAB, which houses both the Technical Support Center (TSC) and the primary EOF, is located at the site boundary. The habitability of the combined TSC and EOF is designed to meet the radiation protection requirements of 10 CFR 50 Appendix A, General Design Criteria 19. " Control Room." The DB AB is outfitted with a Central Control and Monitoring System (CCMS) that will, upon initiation, bring the outside and recirculating air filtra-tion units into operation. The air filtration units are equipped with high efficiency air particulate l (HEPA) filters. The details of the primary EOF habitability, security and communication functions are more completely described in Serial Number 719.

SECY 81-509, describing Davis-Besse's facility, states "the licensee is building a fully hardened l EOF within the 10 mile EPZ with protection factors in excess of 100 and ventilation systems which will assure a habitable facility even during a core melt accident."

By letter dated June 9,1988, (Serial Number 1532), Toledo Edison requested approval for the location of the TSC outside the site protected area. In response to that request, by letter dated I

~ 1 Docket Number 50-346 ' I License Number NPF-3 Serial Number 2531 Enclosure Page 4 June 9,1989, (Log Number 2955), the NRC approved the request, stating that "...the TSC meets

the functional requirements of Supplement I to NUREG-0737 even though the TSC is located outside the site protected area." The DBNPSs Primary EOF is located in the same structure as the fully hardened TSC.

By letter dated May 1,1997, (Serial Number 2461), Toledo Edison requested an exception from i

NUREG-0737, Supplement I and by letter dated July 21,1997, (Serial Number 2467) provided additional information related to the Request for Exception submittal. Toledo Edison wishes to amend these two submittals (Serial Numbers 2461 and 2467) to relocate the Altemate EOF to the Bay Shore Training Center. The request to relocate the Alternate EOF is in response to a directive to evaluate Corporate properties for potential sale by FirstEnergy Corporation, the s parent company of Toledo Edison formed during the recent merger of Ohio Edison Company and Centerior Energy Corporation.

The purpose of the DBNPS Alternate EOF is to provide a meeting room (seating capacity for approximately 30 individuals) to conduct technical briefings with offsite agency officials using current plant data, and to have the ability to communicate directly with senior management l personnel in the Technical Support Center (TSC) and Emergency Control Center (ECC).

Accident assessment, mitigation, dose assessment, classification and emergency organization management will not move from the existing facilities at DBNPS when the Alternate EOF is

activated.

The Davis-Besse Alternate EOF will only be staffed when both of the following conditions exist:

1. Davis-Besse is in a General Emergency.
2. Offsite agency officials wish to meet with company executives, or senior station L management outside the 10 mile EPZ l

The DBNPS Alternate EOF will be relocated to the Bay Shore Station (a FirstEnergy Corporation fossil-fuel electric generating plant), Training Center in Oregon, Ohio. Bay Shore Station is outside the 10 mile EPZ . The driving distance to Bay Shore from DBNPS is 25 miles, {

with a straight line distance of 18 miles. Under normal traffic and weather conditions, driving l l time is approximately 30 minutes. The attached map (Attachment 1) shows the location of the i Lucas and Ottawa County Emergency Operations Centers (EOCs), the proposed Alternate EOF  !

and the DBNPS. The Bay Shore Station Training Center provides adequate space to conduct briefings, as well as space for a staff work area (Attachment 2). The structure is within the fenced area of the power plant allowing for security of the Alternate EOF (Attachment 3). ]

The Bay Shore Station telephone system is part of the Company wide Centrex telephone network. The DBNPS utilizes the Centrex directly via both company fiber optic and microwave system. The Alternate EOF Communication System is depicted in Attachment 4. Both systems

Docket Number 50-346 License Number NPF-3 Serial Number 2531 Enclosure Page 5 are used daily and have demonstrated a high degree of reliability. Company radio systems are available at both sites as well.

The DBNPS Emergency Director will designate a team ofindividuals to staff the Alternate EOF who are not currently involved in mitigating the event. As a minimum, this team will be comprised of a qualified Emergency Director (Vice President or his representative), a radiation protection specialist, an operations specialist and a technical communicator. This guidance is currently provided in DBNPS procedure RA-EP-02010, " Emergency Management," Attachment 1, Emergency Management Guideline for Emergency Director (Attachment 5, RA-EP-02010). This l procedure is being revised to indicate that the Alternate EOF is now located at the Bay Shore Station Training Center. Guidance will be provided for the setup and operations of the Alternate EOF (Attachment 6, Alternate EOF Setup and Operations).

l Equipment and supplies will be stored and maintained at the Bay Shore Station Training Center to provide for the operation of the Alternate EOF. These resources will be inventoried quarterly l

in accordance with RA-EP-00600, Emergency Facilities and Equipment Maintenance Program (Attachment 7, Alternate EOF Inventory List).

l The plans to relocate the Alternate EOF at the Bay Shore Station Training Center have been l discussed with the State of Ohio and Ottawa and Lucas County officials. Attached are copies of l, the Letters of Acceptance (Attachments 8,9, and 10).

The proposed Alternate EOF will provide a functional facility that would compliment the DBNPS emergency response organization should the need arise. This request for exception from l NUREG-0737, Supplement 1, is in accordance with SECY 96-170 and other cited NRC guidance l and is similar to exceptions granted to other facilities cited in SECY 96-170.

Dear Mr. Freels:

Ottawa County has no objections to Toledo Edison Company establishing an Alternate Emergency Operations Facility (AEOF) at the Bay Shore Power Plant in Oregon, Ohio. We understand that the intended purpose of this facility is to provide a predesignated meeting place outside .of the Plume Exposure Pathway (10 miles) Emergency Planning Zone for governmental officials to meet with senior utility personnel to discuss the event at the station. It is also understood that this additional facility would only be activated when travel to the station has become limited or restricted during an emergency.

During past evaluated exercises and drills communications between our Emergency Operations Center and the utility Emergency Control Center has been considered a strength. Additionally, the EOC utility Technical Liaison and the ECC County Liaison has assured a timely and accurate exchange of information between the ECC and the EOC.

Therefore, Ottawa County is supportive of this concept.

Sincerely, A $
