General _.. =.. The purpose of this inspection was to observe the licensee's

.;-

respence to a simulated emergency, and thereby evaluate the

== licensee's ability to i=plement the facility emergency plan.

The inspection consisted of direct observation by the inspec- =..,. tors of the simulated response.

= The drill was conducted in accordance with the following scope: The drill primarily involved the licensee's personnel but i:elnded a coc:municatiens and accountability drill _- with construction personnel working at the facility.

In ';ll.

. addition, co=munications were exercised with,2ight out- =' side agencies which would support the licensee in the event of an actual emergency.

E The following outlines the scenario of the drill: . The plant is at 50% power beginning operations with a new b fuel load. The plant is tak.an to 90% power and a large

, fuel element failure occurs, causing the reactor coolant

radiation monitoring instrumentation to alarm. Wen a gg.

reactor coolant sample is taken, a rupture occurs in the Mg O sa=pling line which passes through the Auxiliary Building.

The high te=perature water ~~~ flashes to steam, causing high levels of airborne gaseous and particulate activity with resultant high radiation levels.

-- Installed radiation nonitors alarm.

Atte= pts to isolate the leak by shutting the sanple line isolation valves fail.

(For drill purposes the two isolation valves fail to operate re-

== cotely). Due to the localized stear environ =ent, an elect-2~ trical fire starts in the valves control center.
