Operational ' Status of the Emergency Preparedness Program (Inspection Procedure 82701)

a.

Organization and Management Control This area of the licensee's program was addressed to determine whether there had been any changes affecting EP management, EP staffing, or emergency response organization (ERO) composition.

'Regarding management control of the EP program, the inspector found that the licensee had no changes in their emergency response organization subsequent to the previous inspection. The inspector found that EP staff was adequate for the current plant conditions.

Positions were well defined, and individual staff members understood their responsibilities.

b.

Changes to the Emergency Plan and Implementing Procedures Since this area was last inspected (August 1992), no significant changes have been made to the Emergency Plan or to the Emergency Plan Implementing Procedures (EPIP's). Significant changes were in the process of being developed for NRC review to be used for a defueled facility with less radiological hazard.

The licensee anticipated submitting changes in March 1993.

c.

Training This part of the inspection was conducted to determine whether the licensee was implementing its EP training program in accordance

w

with emergency plan and procedural requirements. To accomplish this, the inspector discussed the EP training program with the appropriate training specialist and reviewed applicable training

'

records. The inspector concluded that EP training was being conducted in accordance with NRC guidelines and licensee procedures. Qualification maintenance training and training of new/ reassigned ERO members, was being tracked and controlled in a

,

well documented, controlled manner. The inspector noted that the Training Specialist monitoring the EP training program was closely monitoring the status of the number and training of the Emergency Response Organization during the plant staff reductions to help

,

ensure that the licensee maintained an adequate staff during the current and upcoming staff reductions.

d.

Tour of Emergency Response Facilities (ERFs)

This area was inspected to verify that ERFs and equipment were adequately maintained and to determine whether any changes made since the last inspection adversely affected the licensee's

,

ability to respond to an emergency. To accomplish this, the

-

inspector toured the Technical Support Center (TSC), Operational Support Center (OSC), and Emergency Operations Center (E0F).

During the tour of the facilities the inspector noted that all appeated to be well maintained and ready for activation.

e.

Corrective Action List The inspector reviewed the Corrective Action List which is maintained by the Emergency Preparedness Manager. This list is the licensee's tracking method for improvement items identified during drills and exercises.

The list appeared to be at approximately the proper level of detail. The inspector noted

'that a significant decrease in the number of items that were open at the time of the inspection from the previous inspection.

Items were assigned to cognizant individuals, they bid assigned completion dates, and the list appeared to be kept current.

f.

1992 Annual EP Exercise The 1992 annual EP exercise was originally postponed by the licensee from the scheduled November 1992 time frame due to the steam generator tube leak.

Prior to the rescheduled date, the licensee decided to defuel and to start plans for permanent shutdown and decommissioning. On February 25, the licensee informed the inspector that they were requesting an exemption from their commitment to perform the "1992 exercise".

,

4.

Exit Interview An exit interview was held on January 29 1993. to discuss the findings of the inspection.
