2 ERF Observations. Findinas. and Facility Criticues b.1 Control Room Simulator (CRS)
Observation and Findinas The CRS crew was briefed on initial conditions by the lead facilitator and then assumed shift responsibilities at 8:00 a.m. The simulator annunciator alarmed at 8:10 a.m.. indicating the first off-normal condi.tions occurred. The Shift Supervisor recognized the Alert entry conditions.- 3romptly declared the emergency classification. and assumed i the'responsi)ilities as the Station Emergency Manager (SEM). The SE j assisted by the Unit 2 Supervisor of the unaffected unit, effectively responded in accordance with Emergency Plan Implementing Procedure 1.0 i
"Res)onse to Alert". The SEM approved the initial notification message to tie State and local authorities which was then transmitted within 15 ,
minutes of the emergency declaration. The NRC was notified within approximately 35 minute !
The inspector observed good communications between the control room crew and other emergency response' staff in other emergency response !
facilities.(ERFs). The SEM demonstrated effective command and control 1 with the SCR crew. Changing plant conditions and emergency status were ..
included in the SCR briefings. The inspector observed timely action and
~
'
response of all CRS functions with the exception of .the' Emergency
. Response Organization Notification System-(ERONS) pager activation. The f
.pager activation occurred approximately 21 minutes after the Alert declaration. This did not negatively impact this day time staffing of
.ERFs which were initiated with a public address announcement, but could have a significant impact on timely staffing of ERFs during an off hours emergency. The licensee also identified the issue for review and corrective actio Conclusion The simulator control room crew properly analyzed plant conditions and I
- responded with timely and correct action I b.2 Technical Suocort Center ()bservations and Findinas Staffing and activation of the TSC was efficient and timely. Personnel began arriving shortly after the public address announcement at 8:18 a.m. to activate the emergency response facilities (ERFs). Security maintained the accountability of personnel in the TSC and health physics
)ersonnel provided self reading dosimeters to the staff, conducted labitability surveys, and initiated the TSC radiation habitability monitoring syste The SEM exercised effective command and control. Initial briefings

facility. briefs were. scheduled by the SEM to include key facility ,
manager In addition to the briefings identifying status of-prioritized repair team activities, a repair team status / tracking board was effectively maintained and update The SEM~ demonstrated an awareness for the safety of onsite 3ersonnel. A site assembly and accountability were conducted following t1e Alert classification. Later, as plant conditions changed an evacuation of the auxiliary building and a steam safety valve house was appropriately conducted. Additional cnsite protective actions were demonstrated with the site evacuation of selected nonessential personnel to the primary assembly are The inspector noted that the different technical support areas within the TSC communicated and worked well within their respective group However, the inspector observed that better communication between groups was needed. Specifically. the-Operations Support Leader stated during a facility brief that they were looking at two different possibilities of invoking 10CFR50.54x in order to stop the release. Had the Operations Support group been adequately interfacing with the Dose Assessment-Team
'at this time, they would have known that the radiological release was not-of sufficient significance to warrant 50.54x consideration. The inspector concluded that if the groups within the TSC were to improve >
intergroup communication, better mitigation strategies would be develope Conclusion Command and control of TSC operations were proficient. Better intergroup communication within the TSC would improve development of mitigation strategie b.3 Ooerational Succort Center-Observations and Findinas
' Following^ the Alert declaration at 8:18 a.m.. personnel started arriving
. ,
in the OSC and it was activated at 8:31 a.m. The OSC was located on the third floor of the maintenance building. An accountability log was aromptly established and minimum OSC staffing was achieved at 8:46 Within minutes of. minimum staffing. selected technicians of the different disciplines were dressed out for radiological entries and dispatched for staging at the entrance to the Radiological Control Are :This pre-staging of personnel for damage control teams made for timely
- dispatch of teams. The inspector observed effective OSC o m rations with the exception that on one occasion there appeared to be cor asion at the HP access control point. . The licensee also noted this and their investigation attributed it to the operations organization and emergency maintenance organization generating and controlling critical tasks
'. independent of one anothe Conclusion L
j The'0perational Support Center was effective in providing repair teams as' directed by the TS '

b.4 Local Emeraency Doerations Facility Observations and Findinas The LEOF was promptly staffed and activated following a turn over briefing from the TSC. The Recovery Manager was in frequent communication with the TSC and provided frequent and precise briefings to his staf The LEOF assumed responsibilities for communicating with the offsite agencies with Message Number 3 at 9:05 a.m., a Follow-up Report on the Alert. Timely communications were made throughout the exercise to the State E0C and the five counties within the 10-mile emergency planning zone. Communications with the Commonwealth of Virginia were enhanced by conversations between the Recovery Manager and the Authorized Representative of the Governor of Virginia present in the LEOF. The notification for the General Emergency was initiated just 7 minutes after the declaration. Timely and correct PARS were provided to the State EOC within 12 minute Offsite dose assessment was satisfac .ty. Ti.e Radiological Assessment Coordinator and his staff provided bcc. cauter generated and hand calculated dose assessments to the Recovery Manage The Recovery
' Manager delayed the initial Report of Radiological Conditions to the State following the General Emergency and requested a reevaluation of the initial dose assessment. This was done to prevent confusion with the offsite agencies because the early calculations indicated insignificant dose projections that did not appear to support the decision to recommend evacuation of significant portions of the EP This information was also available to the State Bureau of Radiological Health which is located next to the licensee's dose assessment staff in the LEOF. The inspector also noted good communications between the LEOF and the offsite monitoring team Conclusion The LEOF Recovery Manager and staff were effective in providing timely emergency notifications, correct and timely PARS. and meaningful radiological reports to the State and countie b.5 Licensee Facility Critioues Following the exercise, the licensee conducted facility critiques where the players provided their own assessment of their performance and
' identified areas that needed improvement. The )ost-exercise critiques in the TSC. OSC. and LEOF were observed to be tlorough, open. and self-critical. The licensee controller / evaluator organization then conducted detailed discussions. reviewed documentation. and conducted interviews as required to develop their critique results. On July 21, 1998. the Emergency Preparedness Director provided an excellent presentation to licensee management of the critique result .

NORTH ANNA POWER STATION JULY 21,1998 EMERGENCY EXERCISE SCENARIO NARRATIVE I l
A plume pathway exercise is scheduled to be conducted at the North Anna Power Station. For the purposes of the exercise, Unit 1 is designated as the affected uni i
!
Unit 1 is operating at 100% full power equilibrium at the middle oflife with a small 4 gpd ;
primary to secondary leak in the "B" steam generato :
Unit 2 is operating at 100% full power equilibrium at the beginning oflif !
The exercise starts at 0800 and at 0810 an explosion, with no fire, occurs in the 1J1480v emergency bus. The resulting shock wave causes a loose failure detector card in a power supply :
cabinet resulting in a Rod Control Urgent Failure alarm. The unplanned explosion causing l
damage to safety related equipment establishes the conditions for an Alert classificatio '
At 0840 a medical emergency is reported outside the roll-up door at the Decontamination ,
Facility. The injuries are severe enough to require transport of the victim to an off-site medical facilit i i
At 0925 a loose part occurs in the lower reactor vessel resulting in gradual clad damage and l subsequent increase in reactor coolant system activit A tube rupture occurs in the "B" steam generator at 1030. At this time the reactor is tripped and I safety injection is initiated. Fuel clad damage increases significantly. When the reactor is tripped, the "B" steam generator PORV opens and sticks open resulting in a radioactive release to the environment. These events establish conU.tions for a General Emergenc Initial attempts to isolate or close the "B" steam generator PORV are not successful. Attempts to isolate or close the PORV will be successful at 113 Additional equipment failures include an overspeed trip of the steam driven auxiliary feedwater pump,1-FW-P-2, and an overcurrent trip of auxiliary feed water pump 1-FW-P-3 The escalation through the applicable emergency classifications provides activities designed to exercise both on-site and off-site response organizations. Sufficient time is permitted to allow the response organizations to perform the required assessments and response action I
'
The emergency phase of the exercise will terminate by 1230, followed by the facility critiques.
