Emergency Measures The MNS Emergency Plan, EPIP and CMP were reviewed, discussions with Station personnel were conducted and the facility was inspected to insure that specific emergency measures are identified for each emergency class related to action levels and criteria that specify when the measures are to be implemented.
Emergency measures include activation of the emergency organization, assessment actions, corrective actions, protection actions and aid to affected persons, a.

Emergency Facilities and Equipment The Emergency Plan Implementing Procedures were reviewed, the facility was inspected and discussions were conducted with licensee personnel to insure that communications systems, emergency control centers, assessment facilities, protective facilities and equipment, and first aid and medical facilities are provided and that equipment and supplies are inventoried, calibrated and maintained as necessary to implement the emergency plan.
a.
An item identified during a previous inspection (80-26-04)
concerned the inadequacy of procedure PT/0/A/4600/11 dealing with inventory of emergency kits and emergency vehicle equipment. The procedure did not provide a mechanism to insure corrective actions and did not contain a method of documenting inventories.
Procedure PT/0/A/4600/11 has been revised to correct the inadequacies and this item is closed, b.
An item identified during a previous inspection (80-26-06)
concerning the seismic monitoring system was discussed. A modification to the control room read out system has been requested so that an annunciator alarm will be activated anytime the seismic event indicator trips.
In addition, I&E technicians are being trained in the rapid estimation of earthquake magnitudes using the control room indicator and recording device. These actions will provide the control room operators positive indication that a seismic event has occurred and a rapid assessment of magnitude so that proper actions can be initiated in i
accordance with procedure EP/0/A/5000/36. This item shall remain open until the modifications noted above are complete.
'
c.
A previous inspection item (78-24-11) concerned the installation, l
testing and calibration of the process and effluent monitoring system. The testing and calitration of all the monitors in the system is not complete. Of particular concern from the standpoint of the Emergency Plan is the c3ntainment atmosphere radiation monitor (EMF-38). There have Men some problems' with this monitor
and the completion of testing ind calibration await replacement parts on order. This item shall remain open until the completion of monitor installation and testing.

The medical / decontamination facility in the auxiliary building has l
not been stocked with first aid and decontamination supplies and equipment. This was identified as open item (78-24-10) during a previous inspection and shall remain open until the facility is complete.
