The applicable planning standard 10 CFR 50.47(b)(5) and related requirements contained in Section IV.D of Appendix E to 10 CFR Part 50 were used as reference criteria. The evaluation criteria contained in NUREG-0654, Criteria for Preparation and Evaluation of Radiological Emergency Response Plans and Preparedness in Support of Nuclear Power Plants, Revision 1; and Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Report REP-10, Guide for the Evaluation of Alert and Notification Systems for Nuclear Power Plants were also applied. This inspection activity represents one sample on a biennial cycle.
The inspector reviewed various documents which are listed in the Attachment to this report.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.
1EP3 Emergency Response Organization (ERO) Staffing and Augmentation System
a. Inspection Scope
The inspector reviewed the ERO augmentation staffing requirements and the process for notifying ERO personnel to ensure the readiness of key staff to respond to an event and the capability for timely activation of emergency response facilities (ERFs).
The results of two unannounced off-hour augmentation drills (which included actual travel and staffing of ERFs) were reviewed. The inspector evaluated the licensees provisions for a backup notification system. A sample of problems identified from augmentation drills was reviewed to assess the effectiveness of corrective actions.
The inspection was conducted in accordance with NRC Inspection Procedure 71114, 03, Emergency Response Organization Staffing and Augmentation System. The applicable planning standard 10 CFR 50.47(b)(2) and related requirements contained in Appendix E to 10 CFR Part 50 were used as reference criteria. This inspection activity represents one sample on a biennial cycle.
The inspector reviewed various documents which are listed in the Attachment to this report.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.
1EP4 Emergency Action Level (EAL) and Emergency Plan Changes
a. Inspection Scope
Since the last NRC inspection of this program area, Revision 07-1 of the Radiological Emergency Response Plan was implemented based on the licensees determination, in accordance with 10 CFR 50.54(q), that the changes resulted in no decrease in the effectiveness of the Plan, and that the revised Plan continued to meet the requirements of 10 CFR 50.47(b) and Appendix E to 10 CFR Part 50. The inspector conducted a review of the EAL changes to evaluate for potential decreases in effectiveness of the Plan. However, this review was not documented in a Safety Evaluation Report and does not constitute formal NRC approval of the changes.
Therefore, these changes remain subject to future NRC inspection in their entirety.
The inspection was conducted in accordance with NRC Inspection Procedure 71114, 04, Emergency Action Level and Emergency Plan Changes. The applicable planning standard 10 CFR 50.47(b)(4) and related requirements contained in 10 CFR 50.54(q) and Appendix E to 10 CFR Part 50 were used as reference criteria. This inspection activity represents one sample on an annual cycle.
The inspector reviewed various documents which are listed in the Attachment to this report.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.
1EP5 Correction of Emergency Preparedness Weaknesses
a. Inspection Scope
The inspector reviewed a sample of the corrective actions identified through the emergency preparedness (EP) program in order to ascertain the significance of the issues and to determine whether repetitive problems were occurring. The facilitys self-assessments and audits were reviewed to evaluate the licensees ability to be self-critical, thus avoiding complacency and degradation of its EP program, and to assess the completeness and effectiveness of a sample of EP-related corrective actions. The inspector reviewed documentation associated with the two emergency declarations made since the last inspection of this program area.
The inspection was conducted in accordance with NRC Inspection Procedure 71114, 05, Correction of Emergency Preparedness Weaknesses. The applicable planning standard 10 CFR 50.47(b)(14) and related requirements contained in Appendix E to 10 CFR Part 50 were used as reference criteria. This inspection activity represents one sample on a biennial cycle.
The inspector reviewed various documents which are listed in the Attachment to this report.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.
OTHER ACTIVITIES
4OA1 Performance Indicator (PI) Verification
a. Inspection Scope
Cornerstone: Emergency Preparedness
The inspector reviewed the licensees process for developing the data for the three EP PIs listed below, and examined data reported to the NRC for the four-quarter period April 1, 2006 - March 31, 2007. To verify the accuracy of the PI data reported during that period, PI definitions and guidance contained in NEI 99-02, Regulatory Assessment Performance Indicator Guideline, Revision 4, were used to verify the basis in reporting for each data element.
- Drill and Exercise Performance (DEP)
- ANS Reliability The inspector verified the accuracy of the PI for DEP through review of a sample of drill and event records. The inspector reviewed selected training records to verify the accuracy of the PI for ERO drill participation for personnel assigned to key positions in the ERO. The inspector verified the accuracy of the PI for ANS reliability through review of a sample of the records of periodic system tests.
The inspection was conducted in accordance with NRC Inspection Procedure 71151, Performance Indicator Verification. This inspection activity represents three samples on an annual cycle.
The inspector reviewed various documents which are listed in the Attachment to this report.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.
