DETAILS Persons Contacted

  • Attended the April 25, 1989, exit intervie Licensee Action on Previously Identified Items (IP 92701)

(Closed) Open Item No. 265/88019-02:

During the 1989 exercise at the Quad Cities Station, Emergency Operations Facility (EDF) staff failed to involve Technical Support Center (TSC) staff in an important discussion with State officials on the rationale behind the initial offsite Protective Action Recommendation (PAR) that had just been developed by TSC staf Records review indicated that a required reading package was distributed in February 1989 to all persons who could perform Protective Measures Director or Coordinator duties in the offsite Emergency Response Organization (ERO) for any of the licensee's nuclear station The package contained a well-detailed description of the concerns associated with this Open Item and included additional guidance on required turnover briefing topics for TSC and EOF staffs involved in protective action decisionmaking, to better ensure that newly arrived EDF staff are not only aware of any current PAR but are also well aware of the bases for the recommendatio This item is close (Closed) Open Item No. 265/88019-04:

During the 1988 exercise at the Quad Cities Station, EOF protective measures and engineering staffs did not adequately interface regarding a degradation of plant systems which adversely affected the composition of the simulated radiological releas Instead, protective measures staff falsely assumed that the Standby Gas Treatment System's very high filtering efficiency had not been degraded by earlier scenario event.

The aforementioned required reading package also adequately described this exercise performance problem and provided additional guidance on the need for protective measures staff to remain_ fully aware of plant systems availability and operability factors that can affect release composition or duratio This item is close Organization and Management Control (IP 82701) Division of Responsibilities and Staffing The corporate emergency planning staff was reorganized in early 1989 as part of the Introspect Program which is causing numerous significant changes in the Nuclear Operations Organization at the six nuclear stations and the corporate offic The reorganized Emergency Preparedness (EP) Department 1 s Director reports to the Senior Vice President for Nuclear Operations through the General Manager of Nuclear Service This reporting chain has fewer steps than did the previous reporting chai The Director has retained direct responsibility for certain EP training program development and scheduling activities, while utilizing three supervisors for the following areas:

operations and onsite programs; environmental monitoring and special projects; and, governmental affairs and offsite Emergency Response Facilities (ERFs).

The Director 1 s EP background includes lengthy membership in the offsite ERO plus frequent interfacing with regulatory agencies on EP matters as a nuclear licensing administrato The three supervisors all have lengthy supervisory experience in various areas of E The Operations and Onsite Programs Supervisor has retained many responsibilities, including~ lead role in the development and coordination of exercise scenarios and Emergency Action Levels (EALs); development of some periodic EP drill scenarios; primary interface with the nuclear stations* GSEP Coordinators, who are station employees but functionally report to the corporate EP Director; maintenance of the 11 EP TRAK 11 system for tracking corrective actions on NRC, INPO, and self-identified items assigned to corporate or the stations* EP staffs; generating periodic performance reports on the stations* EP programs; development and coordination of emergency plan revisions; and maintenance of EDF and Corporate EDF (CEOF) Emergency Plan Implementing Procedures (EPIPs).

The Environmental Monitoring and Special Projects Supervisor 1 s responsibilities include:

maintenance of offsite dose projection hardcopy and computerized procedures (A-Model and C-Model);

maintenance of procedures used by environmental monitoring teams; maintenance of the Offsite-Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM) for routine releases; and interface with the vendor providing

Reports, Quality Assurance (QA) audits, INPO evaluation reports, and self-assessment reports to the six stations' GSEP Coordinator The group has begun issuing "Guidance Recommendations" and other informative notices on a wide range of topics of generic interes The topics and/or content of these recommendations were originated by a GSEP Coordinator or by corporate staf Recent topics included:

acceptance criteria for offsite relocation centers reserved for station evacuees; an improved form for documenting the evaluation of licensee records associated with an emergency plan activation; and concerns on the adequacy of recently procured portable generators used by field team These informative notices have been aQdressed to Station Managers, GSEP Coordinators, and selected corporate manager Exercise scenario development has been a major task of the Operations and Onsite Programs group for some year Members of this group lead the scenario development teams which include licensed-and non-licensed station representative The group's representatives coordinate the teams' efforts, function as the primary interface with Federal and State agencies, and ensure that exercise controllers are properly traine The Operations and Onsite Programs group, the six stations GSEP Coordinators, and some GSEP Training Instructors have evolved into a cadre of exercise controllers and evaluators which is supplemented by station personnel on a scenario development team and other personne Following each exercise, the group compiles controller and participant records and issues well-detailed internal evaluation reports which are distributed to the stations and corporate staf The group has also led the licensee's efforts to upgrade the six nuclear stations' Emergency Action Levels (EALs).

Thus far, five stations' upgraded EALs have received NRC approva The upgrades include a standardized format and wording, where poss1bl A lengthy "EAL Philosophy Document" has been included with each station's EAL upgrade, which has been submitted for NRC review as a proposed emergency plan revisio The philosophy documents defined the technical bases for each EAL, including references to regulatory guidance, Technical Specifications, and assumptions utilized in establishing EAL setpoint The GSEP Coordinators have utilized their.stations' Nuclear Tracking Systems (NTS) to list action items affecting their area of responsibilit Beginning in 1989, corporate staff at the Mazon EDF have utilized an 11 EP TRAK 11 comp uteri zed system to 1 i st such information, strengths and weaknesses noted in SALP evaluations of the stations' EP programs, and action items assigned to corporate staf The information system has the capability to sort current and closed items by station, topic, identifying organization, or by

the individual assigned to resolve the ite Action items were assigned priorities.reflecting the degrees of concern of the external or internal organizations that identified the item Corporate staff have begun to issue periodic EP TRAK reports to the stations and to re-institute periodic station visits to review the GSEP Coordinators 1 progress on current action item During 1988 the group began issuing periodic performance evaluations of each station 1 s progra Overall performance was rated in four categories, with ratings based on the results of NRC, QA, INPO, and internal evaluations of a number of program activities. These evaluations were distributed to all Station Managers, the GSEP Coordinators, and to selected corporate managers as a means of reporting and, to some extent, comparatively evaluating the six stations* EP programs on a frequent basi Based on the above findings, this portion of the licensee 1 s program was acceptabl Self-Assessments of the EP Program Licensee staff have conducted self-assessments of the stations' EP programs since the summer of 198 These assessments have been beneficial to most stations 1 EP programs and were in addition to the efforts of the Quality Assurance (QA) Department and INPO assistance visit By late 1988, self-assessments had been completed at each of the licensee 1s nuclear stations by a team consisting of one or more corporate self-assessment group representatives assisted by one or more GSEP Coordinator Self-assessment group representatives also observed some of the licensee 1 s 1988 exercise Procedural guidance for the self-assessment teams was developed from a number of sources, including:

results of NRC inspections of the EP programs at the licensee 1 s stations; NRC inspection guidance for EP Implementation Appraisals; INPO document Nos.85-001 and 85-014; and results from QA audits and previous self-assessment Self-Assessment reports were issued and distributed to appropriate personnel at the six nuclear stations and the corporate offic Catagories of findings ranged from improvement recommendations to items requiring corrective action and followu Prior to 1989, five-day self-assessments had been conducted at all or some of the stations for the following functional areas:

EP, chem_i stry/radwaste; and rad protect i on/ALAR A proposed 1989 schedule of self-assessments in these three areas had been developed, with the next EP assessment planned for May 198 The Introspect Program has resulted in staffing changes to the enlarged Performance Assessment Department, which has assessment

meteorological monitoring and forecasting service Current special projects included:

relocation of the CEOF to the west suburban future location of the bulk of the corporate Nuclear Operation Organization, and studying alternative locations for the Byron Station's Joint Public Information Center (JPIC).

The Governmental Affairs and Facilities Supervisor's responsibilities include:

interfacing with Federal, State, and local governmental agencies; maintenance of the licensee's dedicated communications systems; maintenance of the offsite ERFs to some respects; and vendor interface regarding upgrade and maintenance of the prompt notification (siren) systems in each nuclear station's Emergency Planning Zones (EPZs).

The 1989 reorganization has resulted in a decrease in the total number of corporate EP supervisory positions; however, the total number of experienced corporate EP staff is essentially unchange The Director indicated that the number of licensee employees in the government affairs group has begun to increase as reliance on contractors decrease Prior to the 1989 reorganization, the six nuclear stations' GSEP Coordinators had gradually achieved uniform reporting chains to their Station Manager Since implementation of the Introspect Program, several variations in reporting chains have occurre It was premature to determine whether the GSEP Coordinators' reporting chains to their Station Managers would return to uniformit There were no indications that the number of GSEP Coordinators would change from one or two full-time coordinators per Station, with a varying amount of support available from a part-time GSEP Training Instructo Based on the above findings, this portion of the licensee's program was acceptabl Functions of the Operations and Onsit Programs Group The Operations and Onsite Programs group, currently based at the Mazon EOF, has been the corporate EP Department's principal interface with the stations' GSEP Coordinators and GSEP Training Instructor For several years, representatives from this group have conducted counterpart meetings with the stations' EP staff Review of documentation of recent quarterly meetings indicated that these sessions were worthwhile opportunities to share information on a wide variety of external and internal EP issue Meeting minutes have been distributed to attendees, Station Managers, the corporate self-assessment group, and corporate EP supervisor The Operations and Onsite Programs group has also been responsible for distributing copies of relevant NRC Inspection

administrators for EP and six other functional area The EP Assessment Administrator indicated that the schedule may be revised, and was uncertain whether the 1989 schedule would be expanded to include an assessment of the corporate EP Departmen He indicated that consideration was being given to include EP experts from outside the licensee's organization in future EP assessments along with licensee staff having related areas of expertis Continued assessment team presence at exercises and EP drills was also being planned so that future assessments would become more "performance based."

Based on the above findings, this portion of the licensee's program was acceptabl.

  • Emergency Plan and Implementing Procedures (IP 82701)

The Operations and Onsite Programs group was responsible for revising the generic Generating Stations Emergency Plan (GSEP) and for coordinating the document's onsite and offsite review prior to implementatio This staff performed the same functions for the generic EDF and CEOF implementing procedure The Operations and Onsite Programs Supervisor provided an overview of the proposed changes to the next revision to the GSE This revision was being referred to as Revision 0 due to the amount of restructuring of its content The document will reflect the normal organization's changes caused by the Introspect Program and the reorganization of each station's Rad Chem Department into Radiation Protection and Chemistry Department Revision 0 would also i~clude additional lessons learned from the 1987 Federal Field Exercise, subsequent exercises, and self-assessment Completion of the onsite and offsite reviews of Revision 0 was expected by October 198 The licensee has coordinated with Illinois, Wisconsin, Iowa, and Illinois Power Company officiaJs a revision to the Nuclear Accident Reporting System (NARS) form that is utilized when initially informing State officials of an emergency declaratio The revised NARS form should be ready for use in mid-198 The form has been revised to address several NRC and self-identified concerns, including: listing the relevant Emergency Action Level (which had been deleted in the previous revision);

allowing greater flexibility in identifying three or more affected downwind sectors; and provisions for providing additional types of information that are not pre-formatted on the for The licensee indicated that the State of Illinois' "IESDA Hazardo.us Materials Questionnaire," utilized in reporting Transportation Accidents, was also being revised and would be incorporated in the GSE Based on the above findings, this portion of the licensee's program was acceptabl * Emergency Response Facilities (ERFs) (IP 82701)

The inspectors toured the Corporate Command Center (CCC) located in the licensee's downtown Chicago office The facility was in an adequate state of operational readines This facility would be activated in accordance with the approved Emergency Plan.'

The CCC Director and his staff may assume overall command and control of the licensee's emergency response efforts while other corporate staff and predesignated staff from unaffected nuclear stations are enroute to the affected station's EO The CCC, which is being redesignated as the Corporate EOF (CEOF), is also the Backup EOF for the Zion Nuclear Generating Statio The licensee was planning to relocate the bulk of the Nuclear Operations Organization to an unfinalized location of DuPage County, Illinois during 198 The Nuclear Services Organization, which included the EP Department, was not included in the current relocation pla However, corporate EP staff were involved in planning the relocation of the CEOF to the Nuclear Operations Organization's_future suburban locatio The licensee was well aware of the needs to maintain an operable CEOF during th~ relocation process and to formally inform appropriate Regional and Headquarters NRC staffs of the planned relocation of this Backup EOF for the Zion Statio The licensee was informed that relocation of the CEOF to the western suburbs could lead to a reevaluation of the desirability of dispatching Region III representatives to an activated CEOF in addition to the TSC and nearsite EO The Byron Station's EOF and JPIC are presently located in the same structure in Dixon, Illinoi Corporate staff were considering moving only the JPIC to an undetermined location in Rockford, Illinois as an alternative to modernizing and enlarging the present JPI The licensee agreed to keep Region III staff informed of the relocation decisio Based on the above findings, this portion of the licensee's program was acceptabl.

Offsite ERO Staffing Levels (IP 82205)

Corporate EP staff have been responsible for issuing quarterly updates of the GSEP Telephone Directory, which included prioritized listings of corporate office and station personnel who have been trained to fill well-defined positions at any of the licensee's EOFs and/or the CEO The current directory listed good numbers of persons for each EOF or CEOF positio Staffing levels were more than adequate to ensure 24-hour staffing capability at any EDF plus the CEO Based on the above findings, this portion of the licensee's program was acceptabl * Emergency Preparedness Training (IP 82206)

Two full-time staff members were directly responsible to the EP Director for the annual EP training program for corporate and station personnel having positions in the licensee's offsite Emergency Response Organization (ERO).

A review of the organization of the training program

. was conducte A comprehensive matrix had been developed, lesson plans reflecting the training matrix were completed, and binders for training modules have been develope Each binder contained objectives, student reading materials, student handouts, lesson plans and applicable test Training program requirements were proceduralize All EOF and CEOF staff are required to qualify annually for their ERO position Initial training consisted of classroom training, an exam, and drill participatio Requalification training can be accomplished by a test ou Training was offered quarterly for various positions and was offered several times during the quarter. If a participant had difficulty in meeting this schedule, the trainer adapted the schedule to one on one training as necessar Training records were well tracked on a computerized system that included training attendance and documents issued to each individua The status of all current corporate EP documents was also tracked using this syste The corporate telephone directory wa~ also updated using this computer syste Information regarding personnel changes at the stations and the corporate office, which could impact offsite ERO staffing, was being effectively tracke The six nuclear stations have had approved onsite ERO training programs for year The licensee has nearly completed development of a standardized onsite ERO training progra This task was undertaken as an INPO commitment in the mid-1980 Standardized training materials were initially developed by the licensee's Production Training Center (PTC).

The training modules and matrix of requirements have been adopted and modified to varying degrees by the stations* Training Departments for several year Modifications included the incorporation of station-specific EPIPs and other detail The corporate EP Department assumed responsibility for program development efforts from the PTC in the Spring of 198 The current standardization attempt is the development of another matrix and lesson plans which represent the 11minimum standards 11 for each station's annual EP training progra The standardized training program was in the final stages of development and testing at the Dresden Statio The corporate EP Department has committed to the Quality Assurance Department to complete program development by June 30, 198 Standardized program materials would then be made available to the other stations' Training Departments so that the existing training programs can be compared to the new 11minimum standards

and upgraded as neede The licensee was developing an expanded, standardized training program for its Environs Directors, who perform offsite dose assessment and field

  • survey team direction tasks in a TSC, EDF, or CEO The 1988 training program, which was attended by about 50 persons, included a seminar on dispersion modeling and meteorological principles which was envisioned as the core of the 1989 progra A review of materials planned for use in the May 1989 training program indicated that it would address: onsite meteorological measurements; affects of topography on local meteorology; the Gaussian model; plume rise; building wake effects; source term determination; field team instrumentation; field team briefing and communication techniques; and hands-on training with computer terminals -

utilized for offsite dose calculatio During 1988, the licensee contracted the development of an indepth EP certification program for the stations' and corporate office's EP staff One half of the desired number of training modules have been complete The in-bouse training program is being conducted during 198 The licensee has informed other Region III licensees of its willingness to make the program available so that development of additional modules can be funde Develqpment of an indepth training program for EP specialists is unprecedented fn Region II Records review indicated that four meetings were conducted with offsite support groups for all six nuclear station Meetings were coordinated through the Governmental Affairs staff and included -participation by Plant Managers, GSEP Coordinators, corporate Public Information Officers, and Governmental Affairs personne Meeting agendas included:

EAL reviews, self-assessment and QA Audit findings related to offsite agency interface, EP program highlights, and plant performance highlights and future plan Attendance by offsite support groups was adequat Enhanced cross-training was conducted with the State of Wisconsin at the Zion Station in 198 The Wisconsin Director of Emergency Government and Wisconsin Public Information Officer presented material regarding Wisconsin's response to an incident at a licensee facility, and the State's response in an ingestion pathway exercis Licens~e personnel were also educated on matters unique to the Zion Station, such as the Illinois Beach State Par Slides of State Emergency Operations Centers were used to better educate station staff on offsite response effort During 1988, media briefings were offered to members of newspapers and radio and TV media for each of the nuclear station Attendance at these sessions was poo The licensee has begun efforts to improve the attendance of local medi An improved agenda was presented at the Zion Station in April 198 Invitations were sent by the Division Director Agenda items included:

participation by Public Information Officers from Illinois, Wisconsin, and the licensee; and tours of the Control Room simulator and the Zion Statio The simulator tour included a demonstration using drill data on the simulato The onsite tour included the TSC and the Turbine Dec The response of local media was greatly improve Press packets were provided which included excellent discussions

  • on the use of nuclear energy to generate electricity, fundamentals of radiation, and acronym definition Members of the press were encouraged to keep these packets for future referenc Based on the above findings, this portion of the 'licensee* s program was*

acceptabl.

Offsite Dose Assessment and Meteorological Monitoring Programs (IP 82207)

The status of A-Model installation was discussed with the EP Department's member assigned to the projec The A-Model is a computerized offsite dose calculation methodology in a station's Control Room whith will automatically perform such calculations should containment radiation level, monitored release rate, or wind speed measurement exceed

  • computerized set points corresponding to a station's EALs and/or Technical Specification limit Model output may also include the relevant EAL and offsite Protective Action Recommendation.(PAR) guidanc The A-Model is operational at the Byron, Braidwood, and LaSalle Station The schedule dates for the A-Model becoming operational at the Zion, Quad Cities, and Dresden Stations were December 1989, March 1990, and May 1990, respectivel Records review indicated that milestone dates were being met to achieve these deadline The model installation process included test plans for onsite verification and validatio Procedure EP-TECH-4 adequately described how an authorized individual could initiate a change to the model's administrative program due to an approved change to an EA Records indicated that chan~es had been properly made when the Unusual Event EALs for high wind speeds ha*d been deleted from the Byron, Braidwood, and LaSalle Stations* revised EAL There was no apparent administrative deadline for completing A-Model changes that would be necessitated by changes to a station's EAL The EP Department's representative to the A-Model project was adequately aware of the status of the Department's EAL upgrade project which has affected all six stations* EAL The Byron and Braidwood Stations*

upgraded EALs received NRC approval in December 198 These upgraded EALs included the addition of an Unusual Event EAL for containment radiation level.

The C-Model is the hardcopy and computerized set of procedures utilized by TSC, EOF, and CEOF staffs to generate offsite dose projection Another member of the licensee's corporate EP staff has been upgrading these procedure Upgrades in progress included:

standardization of units of measure among the various procedures; elimination of hand calculations between steps of some computerized procedures; human factors refinements to inputs and to displays; and improved documentation of the methodologies* technical bases and assumption * At present, hardcopy and computerized procedures ED-5,6,10 and 26 have been upgraded, including verification and validation of the software using tes't case These procedures were se 1 ected based on their frequency of use during exercise The EP staff representative indicated that the remaining ED-series hardcopy procedures would be updated by late 1989, at which time the computer systems group would begin the associated programmin The entire C-Model upgrade project was estimated to be completed in late 199 The licensee has utilized a contractor for a number of years to maintain the onsite meteorological monitoring programs at the six nuclear station The contractor has the capability to remotely interrogate the monitoring systems to identify outages and suspect dat The licensee indicated that the remote interrogations are done several times each da Unscheduled equipment checks can be initiated without prior licensee approval in addition to the weekly site visits and bimonthly calibration A sample of monthly and semi-annual monitoring program reports were reviewe These early 1989 reports confirmed statements in the Emergency Plan regarding system maintenance and calibration provision Based on the above findings, this portion of the licensee's program was acceptable; however, the following item should be considered for improvement:

The licensee should establish a deadline for completing a change to an operational A-Model following approval of a revision to a station's EAL Public Information Brochures (IP 82209)

A review of randomly selected records indicated that brochures were distributed in 1987 and 1988 ~ithin each nuclear station's 10-mile Emergency Planning Zone (EPZ).

Brochures were distributed according to customer billing and actual address listing In some cases, customers supplied electricity by the Illinois Power Company resided within the 10-mile EPZ of one of the licensee's nuclear station Records indicated that brochures were distributed to such customers through mailing lists developed in cooperation with the Illinois Power Compan Bulk distribution of brochures to businesses and public use areas were completed, and later verified by licensee personnel in the Division Office The overall format and content of the brochures has been standardized where possible, with the exceptions of maps and other information specific to each station's EP A revision to the Braidwood Station's brochure was completed in 1987 to satisfy a commitment to the Atomic Safety and Licensing Boar The revision did not involve site-specific

  • 1nformatio The licensee coordinated with Illinois, Wisconsin, and Iowa officials so that the revised wording appeared in the 1988 brochures for all six station Based on the above findings, this portion of the licensee's program was acceptabl.

Exit Interview The inspectors met with the EP Department Director at the end of the inspection and with the EP Supervisors during the inspection to present the preliminary inspection finding The licensee indicated that none of the items discussed were proprietar The licensee was informed that the level of corporate support for the stations' EP programs had not diminished due to the recent changes in the Nuclear Operations Organizatio The EP Department has retained the bulk of its experienced personnel and is increasing its direct involvement with State and local support organization A number of good practices have evolved and are being refined to improve the interface between corporate staff and the stations' EP staff The self-assessment program bas also had a very beneficial impact on some stations' EP programs in addition to the efforts of QA and corporate EP staff The result of the overall quality of the coordination between corporate staff and the stations' EP staffs has been the improvement of the stations' EP programs in response to NRC and self-identified concerns.
