[1] Activity: An event or action, or series of events or actions that may result in a change to the emergency plan or affect the implementation of the emergency plan.
(a) An activity sets in motion the need to determine impact on certain licensing bases documents using regulatory review criteria such as 10 CFR 50.54(q)
(b) Activities may range from something as simple as making an editorial change or organization change to complicated facility modifications (c) Activities may be identified by the applicability determination process provided by 10 CFR 50.59 or through another process (d) For the purposes of 10CFR 50.54(q), activities may also originate outside of the licensee's responsibility such as permanent road closings or substantive population increases
[2] Capability: The capacity to implement the response actions identified in the emergency plan (e.g., the ability to augment onshift personnel in a timely manner, generate timely and accurate PARs, complete notific?tions within 15 minutes, and maintain a protracted response).
[3] Change: An action that results in modification or addition to, or removal from, the licensee's emergency plan. All such changes are subject to the provisions of 10 CFR 50.54(q) except in cases in which the applicable regulations establish specific criteria for accomplishing.a particular change.
[4] Conforming Change: A change made to comply with another process change, such as an underlying regulatory basis change or a new regulatory basis, a station modification, Technical Specification, etc. These changes are reviewed as required using this procedure, but may be treated collectively when multiple changes to the reviewed activity are made to conform to the other process change.
[5] Editorial Change: Editorial changes are reviewed under 10CFR50.54(q)(2) or screened under 10CFR50.54(q)(3) and do not require a 10 CFR 50.54(q)(3) evaluation. They are a specific change or revision to a procedure or document that meets the criteria defined in EN-AD-101 that define the meaning of "editorial change or non-intent change" for controlled document change purposes.
NUCLEAR NON-QUALITY RELATED EN-EP-305 REV.4 MANAGEMENT MANUAL INFORMATIONAL USE PAGE 5 OF77 10CFR50.54 Review Pro ram
[6] Emergency Plan: The document(s) that the licensee prepared and maintains that identifies and describes its methods for maintaining emergency preparedness and responding to emergencies. An emergency plan includes the plan that was originally approved by the NRC, and all subsequent changes that the licensee made with and without prior NRC review and approval under 10 CFR 50.54(q).
For the purposes of this procedure, Entergy considers the following to be elements or parts of the emergency plan, and therefore subject to 10 CFR 50.54(q)(3) reviews, whether or not they are actually contained in the document itself:
(a) Emergency classification Initiating Conditions, Emergency Action Levels and Emergency Action Level Basis Document(s)
(b) Evacuation Time Estimate (c) ANS Design Report (d) Onshift Staffing Analysis (e) Other site-specific documents as identified by the site
[7] Emergency Planning Function: A capability or resource necessary to prepare for, and respond to, a radiological emergency, as required by Section IV of Appendix E to 10 CFR 50 and the planning standards of 10 CFR 50.47(b).
[8] Methods: The procedural means or manner of implementing the response actions identified in the emergency plan (e.g., emergency classification schemes, notification protocols, and emergency action level (EAL) threshold value bases).

4.0 RESPONSIBILITIES
[1] The Manager, Regulatory Assurance (site) is responsible for processing requests to change an Entergy Operating License and coordinating the implementation of NRC approved license amendments in accordance with EN-Ll-103.
[2] The Manager, Emergency Preparedness at each site or designee is responsible for:
(a) Ensuring that applicable activities that may impact the emergency plan are reviewed to ensure the effectiveness of the emergency plan is maintained
\
in accordance with 10 CFR 50.54(q)(2) l (b) Ensuring a screening and if required an evaluation, is performed in accordance with 10 CFR 50.54(q)(3) to determine if proposed changes to the emergency plan reduce the effectiveness of the emergency plan (c) Assigning knowledgeable and qualified individuals to perform and review 10 CFR 50.54(q)(2) reviews and 10CFR50.54(q)(3) screenings and evaluations and ensuring that assigned personnel are knowledgeable of the subject being evaluated or reviewed (d) Ensuring revisions to the emergency plan are sent to the NRC within 30 days of their implementation in accordance with 10 CFR 50.4, for changes which do not require prior approval by the NRC. Changes requiring approval by NRG will be submitted in accordance with the provisions of EN-Ll-103.
[3] The preparer of the 10 CFR 50.54(q)(2) review, 10 CFR 50.54(q)(3) screening or evaluation is responsible for performing the applicable task in accordance with this procedure and verifying their qualifications are current before performing these activities.
[4] Other departments are responsible for referring changes that could impact the effectiveness of the emergency plan to the emergency preparedness organization for review under this guidance (e.g., certain changes to plant design, radiation monitor set-points, security plan, etc.). These determinations are made in accordance with EN-Ll-100. Examples include:

(b) Adding an occupied building without public address system to communicate site evacuation (c) Changing plant vent radiation monitor that could require a change to EAL thresholds 5.0 DETAILS 5.1 PRECAUTIONS AND LIMITATIONS
[1] Proposed activities that may impact the maintenance of the emergency plan should be reviewed under 10 CFR 50.54(q)(2).
[2] Proposed activities that constitute a change to the emergency plan require review under 10 CFR 50.54(q)(3) using the screening and evaluation (if required) process.
[3] Changes related to requirements that have been removed from the emergency plan and relocated in other documents are reviewed under 10 CFR 50.54(q)(3).
Documents containing relocated requirements are considered part of the emergency plan for the purpose of reviewing the relocated requirements (e.g.,
implementing instructions or procedures). (Refer to Regulatory Guide 1.219, Regulatory Position 3.5c).
(a) Sites may perform an analysis of their emergency plan against the regulatory requirements for content of emergency plans in 10 CFR 50.47(b) and 10 CFR 50 Appendix E and the planning standards and evaluation criteria in NUREG-0654. This analysis should document the current state of the emergency plan and indicate where the programmatic description emergency plan content for emergency response is located when it is not contained in the emergency plan document itself. Such an analysis is not considered a full substitute for the location and determination of NRG-approved historical emergency plan revisions and all other emergency plan changes processed under 10 CFR 50.54(q).
[4] Changes, other than changes to the emergency plan, could adversely impact an emergency planning function. Applicable changes are reviewed under 10 CFR 50.54(q)(2) as required for maintaining the ability to implement the approved emergency plan. Other activities could affect the ability to implement the emergency plan effectively. Applicable changes to other programs, structures, systems or components are reviewed to ensure they do not impact the ability to effectively implement the emergency plan. Refer to EN-LI-100 for identification of these types of changes.

Entergy MANAGEMENT MANUAL INFORMATIONAL USE PAGE 8 OF77 10CFR50.54 Review Pro ram
[5] Refer also to EN-Ll-100 for other regulations that may apply to proposed activities. The review of proposed activities includes review under the other applicable regulations.
[6] IF an activity modifies the emergency plan, such that the plan no longer complies with the planning standards in 10 CFR 50.47(b) or the requirements in Appendix E to 10 CFR 50, THEN an exemption request is processed under 10 CFR 50.12 "Specific Exemptions", rather than 10 CFR 50.54{q). Note that changes that may reduce the effectiveness of the plan while maintaining compliance with the regulations are processed under 10 CFR 50.90. A change requiring processing under 10 CFR 50.12 is rare. Regulatory Assurance should be consulted regarding such a submittal.
[7] As stated in R.G. 1.219, 1.6a, "The licensee cannot properly evaluate a proposed change to the emergency plan if it has not considered the basis for the staff's approval of the original plan or the basis for any subsequent change, whether it has been approved by the staff or implemented by the licensee under 10 CFR 50.54{q)." This is taken to mean that prior changes should be considered when evaluating changes to the emergency plan as well as NRC actions, if any, related to the original plan and subsequent changes.
[8] R.G. 1.219, 5.2c5 establishes the expectation for a level of rigor and thoroughness in 10 CFR 50.54{q) evaluations (reviews) consistent with the scope of the change with particular emphasis on the risk significant planning standards (10 CFR 50.47{b}{4), (5), (9), and (10)). An evaluation of inadequate scope and extent to reasonably assess the impact of the proposed change on the effectiveness of the emergency plan may be considered a violation of the 10CFR50.54{q) rule.

- 5. 2 GENERAL NOTE Attachment 9.8 contains background information regarding various aspects of conducting a review. These include such items as the role of conservatism in change evaluations, the role of Probabilistic Risk Assessment (PRA) in change evaluations, timeliness as an evaluation consideration, role of the facility licensing basis, role of margin in the evaluation process and changing Emergency Action Level (EAL) schemes. This information should be considered when performing reviews under 10CFR50.54(q).
[1] Other Regulations (a) Activities that modify the emergency plan such that the plan no longer complies with the planning standards in 10 CFR 50.47(b) or the requirements in appendix E to 10 CFR Part 50 are processed as an exemption request under 10 CFR 50.12, "Specific Exemptions," rather than under 10 CFR 50.54(q)
(b) IF other applicable regulations establish specific criteria for a proposed activity, THEN implement the other change processes in addition to the 10 CFR 50.54(q) change process
- For example, a modification of the radiation monitoring system described in the FSAR that impacts a technical specification and an EAL threshold could be subject to 10 CFR 50.59, "Changes, Tests, and Experiments,"
and 10CFR 50.54(q)
(c) Refer to EN-Ll-100 for other regulations that may apply in addition to 10 CFR 50.54(q) when reviewing an activity (d) Refer to attachment 9.6 for additional regulatory guidance with information relevant to making changes to the emergency plan

[2] Changes to the emergency plan that have previously been approved by the NRC under 10 CFR 50.90 do not require a 10 CFR 50.54(q)(3) evaluation. Such changes still require documentation in a screening as described below.
(a) License amendments that address changes to the emergency plan would screen out under 10 CFR 50.54(q)(3) provided the change to the emergency plan is specifically addressed in the license amendment (b) For license amendments that do not specifically address changes to the emergency plan, a 10 CFR 50.54(q)(2) review may be completed to determine whether or not the change to the licensing basis supports the emergency plan (c) Any aspects of an activity that have not been approved by the NRC under 10 CFR 50.90 require review under 10 CFR 50.54(q)(2) and/or 10 CFR 50.54(q)(3)
- For example, a license amendment to revise a site's Technical Specifications may not fully encompass the scope of related changes being made to emergency plan procedures. In this case, the changes to the emergency plan procedures that are not within the scope of the license amendment would require review under 10 CFR 50.54(q)(2).
[3] Any emergency plan change that the evaluation determines to be a Reduction in Effectiveness (RIE) requires NRC approval prior to implementation. Such changes are submitted under the provisions of 10 CFR 50.90. These submittals are controlled by EN-Ll-103.
[4] Prior NRC approval is required for any EAL change that potentially reduces the effectiveness of the emergency plan, changes from one EAL scheme (i.e.,
NUREG 0654 to NUMARC/NESP-007 or NEI 99-01) to another, or for plan changes that propose an alternate method for complying with the regulation.
[5] A pre-application call may be held with the appropriate NRC Headquarters staff if a licensee is unsure whether or not the proposed changes constitute an RIE.
Fleet EP assists with such calls as requested.
[6] It is acceptable for an originator to use a matrix or other method for completing Attachments 9.1, 9.2 and 9.3 of this procedure provided all content in the applicable attachment is addressed and the matrix or other document properly refers to the procedure attachments and the change being reviewed.

[3] The purpose of this screening is to determine whether or not a 10CFR50.54(q)(3) evaluation is needed rather than to determine if proposed activities reduce the effectiveness of the emergency plan.
[4] IF the screen determines that an activity is a non-editorial change to the emergency plan AND THEN also affects an emergency planning function or an element associated with a planning function, THEN the activity needs to be evaluated as a change under 10 CFR 50.54( q)(3).
(a) The activity affects an emergency planning function or an element associated with the function or element if it changes any of the following:
- the meaning or the intent of a description
- facilities or equipment
- a process
[5] IF the proposed activity does NOT affect program elements associated with one or more emergency planning functions, THEN the screening should conclude that a 10 CFR 50.54(q)(3) evaluation is not necessary.
[6] "Emergency planning function" means capabilities or resources necessary to prepare for and respond to a radiological emergency, as set forth in Appendix E and the planning standards of 10 CFR 50.47(b). The following are emergency planning functions. They are described in attachment 9.7:

- At least one review is performed by a qualified individual other than the preparer,
- The waiver is documented on the review line of the form ("live" signature not required).
5.7 EVALUATION .
[1] Activities or proposed changes that do not screen out are evaluated to determine whether or not the change reduces the effectiveness of the emergency plan and thereby requires NRG approval prior to implementation.
[2] WHEN considering the impact of a change on one or more program elements, THEN note that a change to a single program element may not always reduce the effectiveness of the associated emergency planning function. This would need to be considered on a case by case basis.
[3] WHEN documenting the 10 CFR 50.54(q)(3) evaluation of a proposed change, THEN there must be an accompanying justification providing a basis for the evaluation. This justification should be complete in the sense that another knowledgeable reviewer would draw the same conclusion. Restatement of evaluation questions in a negative sense or making simple statements of conclusion is not sufficient and should be avoided.
--===:-~Entergy NUCLEAR MANAGEMENT MANUAL NON-QUALITY RELATED INFORMATIONAL USE EN-EP-305 Emergency Planning 10CFR50.54(q) Review Program I
PAGE 18 OF 77 REV.4
[4] Clearly documenting the basis for the evaluation conclusion is important because experience and knowledge are often relied upon when performing a 10 CFR 50.54(q)(3) evaluation. Thus, the basis for the judgment and the logic used in the determination should be documented to the extent practicable and to a degree commensurate with the significance and complexity of the activity such that a knowledgeable reviewer would understand the basis for the judgment.
Since an important goal of the 1O GFR 50.54(q)(3) evaluation is completeness, the items considered by the evaluator must be clearly stated.
[5] Refer to Attachment 9.5 for examples of program changes described in Regulatory Guide 1.219. This attachment includes examples that would not require NRG prior approval; those that could require NRC prior approval, and changes that should have an exchange of technical information between the site and NRG (conference call) prior to finalization. This attachment also contains operating experience related to 10 GFR 50.54(q).

[1] Identify and describe the individual proposed changes to the emergency plan to be evaluated.
NOTE In order to evaluate changes "separately" where multiple changes are being proposed at the same time (e.g., 16 changes in an emergency plan revision), the same evaluation form may be used for all changes provided the documentation within the form is clear that each change is evaluated separately except where two or more changes may be evaluated collectively as noted in 5.8[2] below.
[2] Each proposed change should be evaluated separately. However, the following types of changes may be treated collectively:
(a) Repetitive identical activities (b) Conforming changes (c) Two or more elements that are interdependent (e.g., a change to one element compensates for a change to another element)
[3] Heading: Provide procedure or document number being changed or identify equipment, facility or other change as appropriate. Identify a revision as appropriate. Identify an appropriate title for the item being changed and (Part I) provide a brief description of the proposed change. "N/A" may be used for heading fields as necessary (e.g., if the document or facility has no identifying number).
(a) Identify the affected emergency plan sections or procedure sections. Identify relevant references used.
NUCLEAR NON-QUALITY RELATED EN-EP-305 REV.4 MANAGEMENT MANUAL INFORMATIONAL USE PAGE 20 OF77 10CFRS0.54 Review Pro ram
[4] Part II: Determine if the proposed change affects the licensing basis. The impact of a proposed change cannot be adequately assessed without knowledge of the rationale for the original structure of the affected program element. When making this determination:
(a) Review the relevant sections of the emergency plan (b) Review the differences between the current emergency plan and the one with the last NRC approved Safety Evaluation Report (SER). Include in this review historical changes made under 10 CFR 50.54(q) without prior NRC approval. Identify the reason for differences between the current emergency plan and the NRC approved emergency plan and/or historical emergency plan changes made under 10 CFR 50.54(q) (e.g., need to compensate for preparedness or response constraints or vulnerabilities specific to the facility, emergency planning zone (EPZ), and jurisdiction).
- Some stations may not be able to identify an NRC approved emergency plan with SER. In this case, reviewers should review historical emergency plans as far back as possible and state the process they used in Part II of the form. All due diligence should be applied in researching and locating an NRC approved original emergency plan/SER.
(c) Relevant license amendments, license conditions, regulatory commitments and correspondence may be reviewed (d) Relevant Commission Orders and related inspection findings may be reviewed (e) Relevant statements of consideration may be reviewed
- Statements of consideration (SOC) are published in the Federal Register for a final 10 CFR rule change. It includes the NRC's analysis and disposition of comments that they received on the proposed rule change.
It often provides clarifying information as to the intent or extent of the changes. There may not be a separate "SOC", but the Federal Register notice for the final rule should include the NRC's analysis and disposition of comments (f) Relevant regulatory generic correspondence, findings, or violations related to similar changes may be reviewed (g) Review relevant statements in the FEMA ANS Design Report as applicable to the change

(In those cases where the change involves a replacement, the 10 CFR 50.54(q) evaluation must document the basis for equivalency conclusions.)
10 CFR 50.47(b)(1) - Assignment of Responsibility/Organizational Control Proposed changes to ERO names or titles if they do not change the functional relationships, authorities, competencies, or responsibilities for key positions identified in the plan.
10 CFR 50.47(b)(2) - Onsite Emergency Organization A change to ERO staffing levels resulting from changes in circumstances or gains in efficiency provided that it does not impact the timeliness and accuracy of the ERO's performance of major functional areas or major tasks. in accordance with the emergency plan. The installation of digital display screens that eliminate the need for status board keepers, the collocation of offsite personnel at the EOF that eliminates the need for liaison positions, and the installation of messaging systems that reduce the needed number of communicators are examples of this type of change.

videoconferencing, WebEOC', or digital display boards connected via a data link) as viable alternatives.
10 CFR 50.47(b)(4) - Emergency Classification System A change to an EAL numeric threshold to reflect an approved change in a technical specification provided that the basis of the approved EAL is unchanged (e.g., an EAL basis refers to a particular technical specification but not a limiting condition for operation value).
A change to an EAL numeric threshold to reflect a change in a plant design parameter, instrument response characteristics, or design calculation provided that the meaning or intent of the basis of the approved EAL is unchanged.
RIS 2003-18 provides the following examples of changes that are considered differences from the standard EAL scheme, but still retain the original intent of the scheme. Each proposed change must be compared to the plant specific emergency plan requirements to determine if a reduction in effectiveness exists.
- Using a different numbering scheme than the NEI 99-01 scheme without changing the intent of the overall EAL scheme. However, licensees are encouraged to adopt the NEI 99-01 numbering convention to facilitate communication among licensees, and between licensees, the NRC, and State and local governmental authorities.
- The NEI guidance specifically provides an option not to include an EAL if equipment for the EAL does not exist at the site (e.g., automatic real-time dose assessment capability and telemetered perimeter rad monitoring systems), and the licensee, therefore, does not include the EAL.
- Pulling information from the basis section up to the actual EAL that does not change the intent of the EAL.
- Stating "ALL" operating modes are applicable instead of stating "N/A" for the Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation (ISFSI) EALs, or listing each mode individually under the Abnormal Rad Level/Radiological Effluent and Hazard and Other Conditions Affecting Plant Safety sections.

1.2 Examples of changes to the licensee's emergency plan for which the NRC encourages that licensees arrange a conference call with NRC Headquarters staff for an exchange of information on technical issues before finalizing a change evaluation that concludes that the changes will not reduce the effectiveness of the plan:
- Onsite Emergency Organization A change that increases the activation time of licensee ERFs or a change in how the activation time is measured (e.g., when the activation period starts and when it ends), either of which results in a delay in those facilities' provision of meaningful support to the control room consistent with the facilities' assigned functions and responsibilities.
A change to ERO staffing that eliminates a key position (i.e., (1) control room (shift manager (emergency director) and shift communicator), (2) TSC (senior manager, operations support, radiological controls, TSC communicator, and technical support), (3) EOF (senior manager, protective measures, and EOF communicator), and (4) OSC (OSC operations manager), or reduces the licensee's capability to staff those positions 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> a day, 7 days a week (i.e., 24/7 support}, consistent with the fitness-for-duty requirements in 10 CFR 26, "Fitness for Duty Programs."

10 CFR 50.47(b)(16) - Emergency Plan Maintenance A change that combines the plant-specific emergency plan for two or more noncontiguous plant sites into a common emergency plan.
1.3 Examples of changes to the licensee's emergency plan that could require prior NRG approval:
10 CFR 50.47(b)(1) - Assignment of Responsibility/Organizational Control A change that would reduce the authority and responsibility of persons filling key positions to perform their emergency assignments in accordance with the emergency plan.
A change that assigns major functional areas or major tasks to two or more onsite organizations simultaneously such that it would not be clear to ERO members and the OROs which organization has the authority and responsibility for the activity at any point in the response. An example of this type of change could be one in which the TSC and EOF would perform dose projection functions concurrently without assigned hierarchical responsibility.
A change that would reduce the licensee's capability to staff key ERO positions identified in the plan on a 24/7 basis in accordance with the licensee'.s fitness-for-duty requirements.
10 CFR 50.47(b)(2) - Onsite Emergency Organization A change that would cause any of the major functional areas or major tasks identified in the emergency plan to be unassigned. An example of this type of change would be replacing qualified radiation protection technicians with other personnel who do not have the requisite qualification to provide radiation protection coverage to personnel other than themselves (e.g.,
coverage for an offsite fire department responding onsite).
- A change that increases the ERO augmentation time or a change in how the augmentation time is determined (e.g., when the augmentation period starts and when it ends) could require prior NRG approval if either one would increase the delay in providing meaningful support to the onshift organization beyond the times currently established in the emergency plan. An example of this type of change would be one in which the committed augmentation time is extended by 10 minutes to account for traffic delays or ERO notification or one in which the EOF is relocated such that the augmentation times can no longer be met because of increased ERO travel distances.
A change that eliminates key positions identified in the plan and reassigns the responsibilities of the eliminated positions to other key positions (e.g., multiple functions) and if it would result in an
- ERO member being assigned duties that could be expected to be performed concurrently rather than sequentially. An example of this type of change would be one in which control room

A change that would reduce the availability, or timeliness, of offsite corporate support resources relied on in the plan. An example of this type of change would be a consolidation of corporate entities that relocates material, equipment, or personnel relied on in the plan and that impedes the timely availability of these elements to the ERO.
10 CFR 50.47(b)(3) - Emergency Response Support and Resources A change that reduces the availability or scope of the onsite services provided by local agencies (e.g., local law enforcement and fire fighting).
A change that would delay the in-processing of offsite assistance relied on in the emergency plan.
For example, health physics personnel are not available to provide radiological coverage to ambulance crews or fire fighting assistance.
A change that replaces an offsite radiological laboratory relied on in the emergency plan with a laboratory that does not have the capabilities or licenses that allow it to receive and analyze the radioactive samples anticipated in the emergency plan.
10 CFR 50.47(b)(4) - Emergency Classification System A change that would reduce the licensee's capability to assess, classify, and declare an emergency condition within 15 minutes of the availability of indications that an EAL has been exceeded and to promptly declare the emergency condition as soon as possible following the identification of the appropriate emergency classification level. Examples include (a) a change to the normal shift complement that would delay the licensee's capability to classify an emergency condition by making the expertise to read or interpret a seismic instrument reading cited in the EAL scheme unavailable on shift, (b) a change to the EAL scheme that would eliminate all predetermined radiation monitor EAL thresholds and rely instead on manually initiated dose projections, (c) a change to ERO staffing that would impact the timeliness of emergency declaration by assigning competing duties to the ERO positions that are responsible for performing emergency classifications, and (d) a change to a facility procedure that directs that the 15-minute declaration period starts only after the duration of the condition incorporated in the EAL (e.g., a fire lasting for 10 minutes) has elapsed.
A change to a particular EAL that renders it ineffective such that an accurate classification and timely declaration would not occur as required for an event. Examples include (a) a change to mode applicability of the EAL that excludes an operating mode in which the EAL should be applicable, (b) a change to the logic of an EAL that would result in a particular event not being declared when the declaration would have occurred before the change, (c) a change that would replace a viable quantifiable EAL threshold (e.g., an instrument reading or alarm) with a qualitative EAL that relies on user judgment to reach a declaration, (d) a change that re-expresses field monitor EALs in radiation units (e.g., total effective dose equivalent) that could not

A change that would result in an EAL that deviates from the meaning or intent of the approved EAL bases such that the classification of the event would be different from that approved by the NRC in a site-specific application or from an endorsed industry EAL scheme that had been approved for licensee use.
RIS 2003-18 provides the following examples of changes that are considered deviations from the standard EAL scheme and would constitute a reduction in effectiveness of the emergency plan and require NRC approval prior to implementation.
- Eliminating an IC. This includes removing an IC from the Fission Product Barrier Degradation category because doing so impacts the logic of Fission Barrier ICs.
- Changing a Fission Product Barrier EAL from a LOSS to a POTENTIAL LOSS, or vice versa.
- Changing a defined term where the intended meaning of the defined word is not maintained.
- Any change to the IC and/or EAL, and/or basis, wording as stated in NEI 99-01 that alters the intent of the IC and/or EAL, i.e., the IC and/or EAL:
- Does not classify at the classification level consistent with NEI 99-01
- Results in an incomplete EAL scheme (i.e., does not classify all potential emergency conditions) 10 CFR 50.47(b)(5) - Emergency Notifications A change that would reduce the licensee's capability to promptly alert responsible OROs within 15 minutes after declaring an emergency. Examples include (a) a change to notification forms and their processing that reduces the accuracy or timeliness of emergency notifications, (b) a change to the description of communications hardware that would reduce the capability to initiate and complete required emergency notifications within 15 minutes of the emergency declaration, (c) a change that directs the resta,rt of the 15-minute criterion clock if the condition escalates before the notifications for the prior emergency level are made, (d) a change that eliminates one or more components of initial or followup notifications specified in Section 11.E of NUREG-0654 or the licensee's approved emergency plan (e.g., an omission of whether protective actions are necessary), and (e) a change to ERO staffing that affects the timeliness of.emergency

10 CFR 50.47(b)(6) - Emergency Communications A change that would reduce the availability and reliability of primary and backup communications systems* used to (1) riotlfy and activate State and local emergency response centers or (2) enable communications between the licensee's ERFs and with ORO and Federal emergency operating centers in accordance with the emergency plan (e.g., replacing dedicated private lines with a public exchange service).
A change to ERO callout procedures or hardware could require prior NRG approval if it would delay ERO notification such that the augmentation times in the emergency plan can no longer be achieved.
A change that adjusts the frequency of communication testing or maintenance to a level that the site's experience with system reliability does not support. An example of this type of change would be a scheduled maintenance interval that is greater than the observed mean time between failures of the equipment or a reduction in the availability of backup capabilities.
10 CFR 50.47(b)(7) - Emergency Public Information A change that would reduce the licensee's capability to disseminate information to the public in a timely and accurate manner during emergencies in accordance with the emergency plan.
Examples include (a) media contact lists would not be kept up to date, (b) procedural approval protocols cannot be implemented because of organizational changes, (c) corporate spokespersons would not be familiar enough with a particular site and its reactors to be credible spokespersons, (d) sufficient staffing would not be available to adequately perform assigned functions and tasks related to public information, (d) news releases would not be released in a timely manner such that outdated information could be released after it has been superseded by subsequent events (e.g., a press release addressing the declaration of a notification of an unusual event would be released after the ERO has already declared a site area emergency),
and (e) news releases and briefings would not be routinely coordinated with those provided by OR Os.
A change to annually disseminate public emergency information material or postings that would result in the material not containing the minimum information identified in Section 11.G of NUREG-0654 or an NRG-approved alternative.
A change in the means of distributing the annual information materials if it would reduce the assurance that the permanent and transient adult population within the plume exposure EPZ has been given an adequate opportunity to become aware of the information.

Examples include (a) a reduction in the existing reliability or redundancy of data acquisition, display, and analysis equipment provided in the ERFs, (b) a relocation of an EOF that makes it infeasible for State or local ORO personnel to respond to, and participate in, the EOF as they currently do without adequate compensatory measures, (c) a permanent substitution of personal protective equipment for installed engineered habitability features, (d) a reduction in the frequency of ERF equipment maintenance, calibration, or testing that is not supported by the site's experience with equipment reliability (e.g., a frequency greater than the observed mean time between failures), (e) a change to an ERF use that allows nonemergency uses that would decrease the readiness of the ERF for emergency use, and (f) a change that reduces the inventory or availability of equipment.
10 CFR 50.47(b)(9) - Emergency Assessment Capability A change that would reduce the capability of the ERO to perform assessments of imminent and ongoing radioactive releases in accordance with the emergency plan. Examples include (a) a change that reduces the availability of meteorological data in ERFs where dose assessments are performed and PAR decisions are made, (b) a change in ERO staffing that would eliminate the onshift capability to make timely and accurate estimates of the actual or potential radiological hazards through liquid or gaseous release pathways, (c) the reassignment of dose assessment responsibilities from a site-specific EOF member to a common EOF manned with ERO personnel who are not sufficiently competent in the site's radiation monitoring systems, ventilation systems, source terms, or potential release paths to perform a credible dose assessment, (d) the replacement of a site-specific dose assessment model with a generic model that provides results that have not been shown to be representative for the topography, meteorological regimes (e.g.,
valley effects or sea breeze), release pathways, or source terms applicable to that plant and its environs, (e) a change in field-monitoring air sampling media such that the requisite iodine sensitivity could not be met because of interference from the presence of noble gases, and (f) changes to dose assessment software that would reduce the options available to assessment personnel to perform assessments for releases that have not yet started or that could occur through unmonitored release paths.
10 CFR 50.47(b)(10) - Emergency Protective Actions Change that would reduce the capability of the ERO to implement timely and appropriate protective actions for onsite employees and other individuals present in the plant areas controlled by the licensee and to make timely and appropriate PARs to State and local officials in accordance with the emergency plans. Examples include (a) a change that would result in unescorted persons on site not receiving adequate instruction in site evacuation or site accountability, (b) a change that could result in personnel who are not qualified to wear respiratory protection devices being assigned to ERO positions with functions and tasks that could reasonably require the use of such equipment, (c) a change that would result in PARs that relax earlier PARs that have already been relayed to OROs and are being implemented by the public, (d) a change that reduces the availability of ERO personnel who are qualified to wear

10 CFR 50.47(b)(11) - Emergency Radiological Exposure Control A change that would reduce the capability of the ERO to control the radiological exposures of emergency workers in accordance with the emergency plans. Examples include (a) radiation exposures incurred during an emergency not being recorded as occupational exposure under 10 CFR 20, "Standards for Protection against Radiation," (b) radiation dosimetry not being issued in accordance with emergency plans to offsite assistance (e.g., ambulance, fire, or local law enforcement) entering the radiologically controlled area, (c) personnel decontamination materials and agents not being maintained in a ready state, and (d) authority to authorize emergency exposure limits not being available 24/7. {\
10 CFR 50.47(b)(12) - Emergency Medical Support A change that terminates a letter of agreement with an offsite medical facility relied on in the emergency plan that would delay medical treatment for contaminated, injured individuals without a viable alternative facility accessible within a timeframe consistent with the urgency of emergency medical treatment.
A change in licensee training assistance to an offsite medical facility identified in the emergency plan that degrades the ability of hospital personnel to handle contaminated, injured individuals (e.g., training on radiological contamination control involving contaminated, injured individuals or the general primacy of trauma treatment over treatment for radiation exposure).
A change in ERO staffing or in the availability of emergency kits that would preclude site personnel from ensuring that the receiving medical facility has implemented adequate radiological contamination controls.

10 CFR 50.47(b)(14) - Drill and Exercise Program A change in the conduct of drills and exercises that would reduce the challenge to ERO personnel to the extent that they are not provided adequate opportunities over the exercise planning cycle to practice key functional areas and major tasks, including the use of the plan,
/
procedures, and equipment associated with those functions and tasks. Examples include (a) use of the same general scenarios from exercise to exercise, (b) frequent reuse of a given scenario, (c) lack of sufficient detail in a scenario on an expected ERO response to the data and situations presented by the scenario, (d) scenarios and controller conduct that do not cause drill or exercise participants to "work for the information" as they would in an actual event, (e) an over reliance on player simulation when valid constraints to actual play do not exist (e.g., not obtaining the tools and parts for a simulated repair activity, not obtaining or reviewing the radiation work permit, not donning protective clothing and equipment, not going to the location of the repair, or returning to the OSC sooner than the actual repair would have taken), (f) scenarios that never allow ERO success to change the course of the exercise, and (g) scenario objectives that never exercise the use of backup capabilities (e.g., loss of the primary ring-down phone used for initial notifications).
A change in the conduct of drill and exercise critiques that reduces the ability of the critique to adequately identify weaknesses in the ERO play and to implement necessary corrective actions.
An example would be a critique process that does not identify and formally evaluate any deviation in the ERO performance expected by the scenario. The licensee needs to evaluate such situations to determine whether the scenario was wrong or whether the ERO was wrong. In either case, the licensee needs to evaluate the situation and take the appropriate corrective actions.
10 CFR 50.47(b)(15) - Emergency Responder Training A change in the conduct of ERO training that does not provide ERO personnel sufficient training and other performance development opportunities related to their assigned functions and responsibilities to allow them to perform those functions and responsibilities in an acceptable manner before they are assigned to key ERO positions and periodically as long as they continue to be so assigned.

9.8 BACKGROUND
INFORMATION SHEET1 OF8 10 CFR 50.54(q) Rule 10 CFR 50.54(q) permits the licensee to make changes to its emergency plan without prior application to, and approval by, the NRC, provided that the changes do not reduce the effectiveness of the plan and that the plan, as changed, continues to meet the planning standards in 10 CFR 50.47(b) and the requirements in 10 CFR Part 50 Appendix E.
The objectives of the change process are to ensure that the licensee:
- evaluates proposed changes to its emergency plan for their impacts on the effectiveness of the plan,
- obtains prior NRC approval for changes that are deemed to reduce the effectiveness of the plan, and
- documents and reports such changes and the analysis of these changes.
Regulatory Guidance Relationship between 10 CFR 50.54(q) and the NRC's Reasonable Assurance Finding
- a. 10 CFR 50.47(a) precludes issuance of an operating license or combined license if the NRC cannot make a finding that it has reasonable assurance that adequate protective measures can and will be taken in the event of a radiological emergency.
10 CFR 50.54(q)(2) states that once an operating license is issued, the licensee is required to maintain the effectiveness of its emergency plan.
- b. Some changes that a licensee may make to its approved emergency plan warrant prior NRC approval to ensure that the changes would not adversely affect the NRC's reasonable assurance determination.
However, other types of changes may have such a minimal impact on this determination that they would not warrant prior NRC approval.
The change process under 10 CFR 50.54(q):
- enables licensees to make changes that have minimal impact on the NRC's reasonable assurance determination without prior NRC approval while,
- requiring prior NRC approval for changes that may impact the reasonable assurance determination.
Examples Changes that reduce the number of personnel available to perform emergency response tasks or that lengthen the time it takes to staff and activate emergency response facilities (ERFs) could impact the NRC's reasonable assurance determination and would require prior NRC staff approval.

9.8 BACKGROUND
INFORMATION SHEET20F8 Minor administrative changes, such as updating a telephone number in a notification procedure, would not warrant prior NRC staff review.
Between these extremes is a range of possible changes for which the licensee is required to perform and document a detailed objective evaluation.
- c. The change process under 10 CFR 50.54(q) does not establish whether a proposed change would impact reasonable assurance determinations. The change process establishes only whether the licensee has the authority to implement the proposed change without prior NRC approval.
The change process uses the characteristic "reduction in effectiveness" to exclude from the requirement to seek prior NRG approval those changes that would not reduce effectiveness.
A licensee is required to submit a license amendment request in accordance with 10 CFR 50.90 for a change that it concludes will require prior NRG approval.
Based on its review, the NRC may conclude:
- 1. that the changes do not reduce the effectiveness of the plan,
- 2. that the changes do reduce the effectiveness of the plan but that the NRG continues to have reasonable assurance that adequate protective measures can and will be taken, or
- 3. that the change unacceptably affects the NRC's reasonable assurance determination.
Role of Conservatism in 10 CFR 50.54(q) Change Evaluations The NRC has always expected, and continues to expect, licensees to make conservative decisions for the operation of nuclear power reactors. Conservative decision-making is prudent when the data needed for the decision are unknown or uncertain.
Nonetheless, licensees need to remain alert to the possibility of unintended consequences and consider these outcomes in their decisions. The emphasis in emergency preparedness is on prudent risk reduction measures. An overly conservative decision during an emergency response could trigger actions that could place the public at unnecessary risk, thus resulting in a non-conservative situation. "More" is not always "better."
Example Changing a protective action recommendation procedure to mandate a default 5-mile, 360-degree evacuation in lieu of considering the actual wind variability at the time of the event may appear conservative because more people would be evacuated. However, the approach could expose individuals upwind of the plant to unnecessary evacuation risks without the benefits of the associated radiation dose avoidance, a non-conservative situation.

9.8 BACKGROUND
INFORMATION 5HEET30F8 Role of Probabilistic Risk Assessment Insights in 10 CFR 50.54(q) Change Evaluations The NRC policy statement, "Safety Goals for the Operation of Nuclear Power Plants," (51 FR 30028; August 4, 1986) states that emergency preparedness is a "defense-in-depth measure."
Emergency preparedness is implemented as a matter of prudence rather than in response to a quantitative analysis of accident probabilities. The effectiveness of an emergency plan is independent of probability.
The planning basis in NUREG-0654 states that the objective of emergency planning is to provide dose savings for a "spectrum" of accidents that could produce offsite doses in exce$S of those given in the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) protective action guides (EPA 400-R-92-001 ). The basis goes on to state that no "single specific accident sequence" should be chosen as the one for which to plan because each accident could have different consequences both in nature and degree. The selected planning basis described in NUREG-0654 is independent of specific accident sequences.
The probability of a reactor accident requiring the implementation of a licensee's emergency /
plan has no relevance in determining whether a particular change reduces the effectiveness of !
' - __ /
the emergency plan. Accordingly, licensees should not consider risk insights about specific accident initiation or progression in performing 10 CFR 50.54(q) evaluations.
Timeliness as an Evaluation Consideration
- a. By its very nature, an emergency instills a sense of urgency and dictates the necessity for prompt action, which is a fundamental aspect of the licensee's emergency plan.
Consistent with this imperative, the NRC has specified timeliness criteria in regulations for three specific emergency response activities:
a) emergency declaration, b) emergency notifications, and c) public alerts.
The NRC's emergency planning guidance provides additional time-based criteria. Proposed changes that could delay emergency declarations, notifications, or protective action recommendations (PAR) may reduce the effectiveness of the emergency plan in that subsequent emergency response actions may not be timely and emergency response personnel, facilities, and equipment may not be in position if it becomes necessary to implement measures to protect the public health and safety.

- ~Entergy MANAGEMENT INFORMATIONAL USE MANUAL PAGE 59 OF 77 10CFR50.54 Review Pro ram ATTACHMENT
9.8 BACKGROUND
INFORMATION 5HEET40F8 Generally, the licensee should view any change that could delay an activity or relax a timeliness criterion for the activity as a potential reduction in effectiveness and should evaluate it accordingly. This evaluation would include any change that modifies how the timeliness criterion is evaluated (e.g., "when the clock starts and stops").
Example The purpose of the Emergency Response Organization (ERO) activation is to augment the onshift staff and relieve it of those functions assigned to the technical support center (TSC),
the operations support center (OSC), and the emergency operations facility (EOF). The ERO activation is not complete until the ERO is actively performing those functions at the TSC, OSC, and EOF; actuating a "clock stop" before this would be premature.
The capability to complete an activity within the specified timeframe depends on several factors, including:
- the availability of adequate qualified personnel to perform the activity;
- the number of multiple duties assigned to these personnel;
- augmentation time by offshift personnel; and
- sufficient procedures, tools, instrumentation, equipment, and other material necessary to complete the activity..
The licensee needs to evaluate proposed changes that affect these factors for their impact on the timely completion of emergency planning functions during an emergency response.
Role of the Facility Licensing Basis
- a. The licensee cannot properly evaluate a proposed change to the emergency plan if it has not considered the basis for the staff's approval of the original plan or the basis for any subsequent change, whether it has been approved by the staff or implemented by the licensee under 10 CFR 50.54(q).
Example Why did the licensee specify more onshift ERO staff than what was called for in NUREG-0654?
- Was it a matter of exceeding the regulatory minimum as an operating philosophy?
- Was it done to compensate for special circumstances that existed when the decision was made (e.g., lengthy ERO augmentation times because of the remoteness of the site)?

9.8 BACKGROUND
INFORMATION SHEET50F8 A decrease in staffing in the first case might not reduce effectiveness; a decrease in staffing in the second case would reduce effectiveness if the special circumstances still existed.
- b. The licensee should consider the following licensing-basis documents when informing a 10 CFR 50.54(q) evaluation:
- 1) Regulatory Requirements The Commission's emergency preparedness regulations in 10 CFR Chapter I, "Nuclear Regulatory Commission," are binding on the licensee unless the NRC explicitly exempts them.
- 2) License, License Conditions, and License Amendments The facility's license may contain emergency preparedness commitments and requirements that are binding on the licensee.
- 3) Commission Orders Commission orders may establish specific emergency plan requirements for a particular licensee. On October 31, 1980, the NRC issued Generic Letter 80-90, "Post-TMI Requirements," which requires licensees to confirm their commitments on various requirements imposed after the Three Mile Island (TMI) accident, including emergency preparedness items. The Commission issued confirming orders to mandate compliance with the commitments. Other Commission orders may apply.
- 4) Upgraded Emergency Plans Following the TMI accident, regulations required licensees to upgrade their emergency plans and to submit those plans to the NRC for review. A special inspection program involving onsite evaluations of the upgraded plan and facilities augmented these reviews. The submitted plan, NRC requests for additional information, commitments made in responses to the requests for additional information, NRC safety evaluations, NRC denials, and other correspondence between the licensee and the NRC may be useful in informing a 10 CFR 50.54(q) evaluation.
- 5) FEMA Alert and Notification System (ANS) Design Report Because the performance of an alert and notification system (ANS) is an offsite concern, Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has the primary responsibility and authority for evaluating the design of an ANS.
The ANS design report defines the design of the ANS, including the alerting system (e.g., sirens, tone alert radio, and route alert) and the notification system. The ANS

9.8 BACKGROUND
INFORMATION 5HEET60F8 design report identifies commitments for testing and maintenance.
The NRC considers the approved ANS design report to be part of the facility's licensing basis because it establishes the basis of the NRC's determination that the licensee has complied with Section IV.D.3 of Appendix E to 10 CFR Part 50.
If the licensee has committed to install or maintain the ANS on behalf of State or local governments, changes to the licensee's commitments on the design, testing, and maintenance of the ANS identified within the site's FEMA-approved final ANS design report are evaluated against the criteria of 44 CFR 350.14, "Amendments to State Plans." If warranted, the licensee must submit the proposed changes to FEMA via the responsible State official for review and approval.
- 6) Other Sources of Licensing Information The following sources of licensing information may be useful in informing 10 CFR 50.54(q) evaluations:
a) Hearing Dockets Atomic Safety and Licensing Board (ASLB) and the Atomic Safety and Licensing Appeal Board Hearings: Emergency preparedness contentions have been raised in numerous proceedings associated with licensing and license amendments. The resulting board decision may have been based, in part, on the licensee's (applicant's) statements about its emergency plan made in testimony presented before the board. This testimony and that of the NRC staff witnesses and witnesses for the interveners and resulting board rulings may be useful in informing a 10 CFR 50.54(q) evaluation on a program element addressed in those hearings.
b) NRC Inspection Findings Inspection findings, inspection reports, commitments made in licensee response letters, root cause analyses, and supplemental inspection results may be useful in informing a 10 CFR 50.54(q) evaluation of a program element addressed in those findings.

9.8 BACKGROUND
INFORMATION 5HEET70F8 Role of Emergency Preparedness Cornerstone Performance Indicators Representatives of the nuclear power industry developed the emergency preparedness cornerstone performance indicators, and the NRC endorsed them. The nuclear power industry developed these performance indicators and the supporting guidance to monitor licensee performance; however, compliance with a performance indicator does not necessarily demonstrate compliance with regulations. For example, opportunities for demonstrating the capability to notify offsite response organizations (OROs) are considered successful upon notification of the first ORO. However, the NRC expects the licensee to have the capability to notify all OROs within 15 minutes to be in compliance with regulations. Accordingly, the licensee cannot use performance indicators and their guidance as the sole basis for concluding whether a proposed change would reduce the effectiveness of its emergency plan; however, they may be useful in informing such determinations.
- Role of Margin in the 10 CFR 50.54(q) Change Process
- a. The 10 CFR 50.54(q) change process establishes a two-factor test to determine when a change to an emergency plan requires prior NRC approval:
- whether the emergency plan, as modified, would continue to comply with the planning standards in 10 CFR 50.47(b) or the requirements in Appendix E to 10 CFR 50 and
- whether the proposed change would reduce the effectiveness ofthe emergency plan.
These two tests are separate and distinct. If the licensee does not meet either test, it must obtain prior NRC approval. Meeting the first test does not imply that the licensee has met the second test, nor does meeting the second test imply that the licensee has met the first test.
- b. During licensing, a licensee may have committed to a greater level of capabilities, methods, and resources than what regulation and guidance had explicitly required and subsequently may seek to reduce that level of commitment. Because the original plan "exceeded" the explicit regulatory requirement, the licensee may have enough "margin" to reduce its commitment and still comply with the regulatory requirements. This rationale only considers the first test factor; the second test factor still needs to be evaluated.
- If the licensee's original commitment resulted from a conservative operating philosophy, the licensee may be able to show that the reduction in commitment would not reduce the effectiveness of its emergency plan.
- If the licensee's original commitment resulted from the need to compensate for preparedness or response constraints or vulnerabilities specific to the facility, emergency planning zone (EPZ), and jurisdiction, any reduction in commitment would

9.8 BACKGROUND
INFORMATION SHEET80F8 likely result in a reduction in effectiveness if the constraints or vulnerabilities are still present.
- c. In either case, the conclusion is not based on whether "margin" exists but instead on whether the licensee can demonstrate that the change does not reduce the effectiveness of its emergency plan. In the case discussed in the first bullet in b above, conditions may have developed since the original commitments were made, thus making them necessary to maintain the effectiveness of the emergency plan. As such, the concept of margin has no role in a 10 CFR 50.54(q) change evaluation.
Changing Emergency Action Level Schemes
- a. Changes to individual Emergency Action Levels (EAL) may be made without NRC approval prior to implementation as governed by 10 CFR 50.54(q).
- b. 10 CFR 50 Appendix E.IV.B, "Assessment Actions" requires licensees to obtain NRC approval prior to implementing certain EAL changes in accordance with 10 CFR 50.90.
"A revision to an emergency action level must be approved by the NRC before implementation if:
- The licensee is changing from one emergency action level scheme to another emergency action level scheme (e.g., a change from an emergency action level scheme based on NUREG-0654 to a scheme based upon NUMARC/NESP-007 or NEl-99-01 );
- The licensee is proposing an alternate method for complying with the regulations; or
- The emergency action level revision reduces the effectiveness of the emergency plan."

It was decided during a fleet call that it is acceptable to list PAD review statements here that are copied directly from the PAD and to discuss the PAD review performed. If the document you are reviewing is excluded from the PAD review, then you may state that here and why it was excluded. NOTE that 10CFR50.54(q) is NOTthe vehicle to use to PROCESS a PAD exclusion. Follow the requirements of EN-U-100 for such exclusions.
The "emergency plan" is the document (or documents) that provide a programmatic description of the site's emergency preparedness program. For most Entergy sites this will be the document titled "Emergency Plan," but can and often does include other documents as described further in this section. Emergency Plan Implementing Procedures are NOT considered part of the "emergency plan" UNLESS programmatic description information has been historically relocated from the original NRG approved emergency plan to an Implementing Procedure (or other document) - EALs are the common example of this. Refer to Reg Guide 1.219 regulatory position 3.5c.
List here the affected emergency plan sections. DO NOT UST HERE WHY THE CHANGES YOU ARE MAKING DO NOT RESULT IN AN RIE. This is for Part V. DO NOT UST HERE HOW THE CHANGE CONTINUES TO COMPLY WITH THE REGULATIONS. This is for Part Ill.
A review MUST be performed of the last NRG approved version (SER provided) of the emergency plan and subsequent revisions made under 10CFR50.54(q) to inform the basis for the current change. Document this review and the results here. IF an NRG-approved emergency plan cannot be located, THEN state this and state what revisions were reviewed (how far back the review went). Refer to Reg Guide 1.219 regulatory position 1.6a. An example of such a review is provided below:
In addition to those reviewed for the PAD, each of the following documents I relevant sections was reviewed:
a) Reviewed current plan Sections 1, 3, 4, 6, 7 and 8, and Appendices C and I. No additional relevant or affected plan content was identified.
b) The original plan (1982)" was reviewed manually with several differences noted:
- In 1982, plan section 6.4.1.2 addressed Site Evacuation and described the Remote Assembly Area as being located at the Niagara Mohawk Service Center in Oswego. Plan section 7.4.4 further described this same facility as being an "electrical maintenance service dispatch center located approximately eight miles from the site and away from the prevailing downwind direction. The current plan describes the Remote Assembly Area as being located at the Oswego County Airport. The reason for this difference is that the location of the Remote Assembly Area has changed over time to its current location beyond the 10 mile EPZ. Since 1982, the designated Remote Assembly Area has been relocated twice.
The first relocation was to another Niagara Mohawk Service Center located on Howard Road in the Town of Volney, approximately twelve miles from the site. The Howard Road Service Center was later sold and the designated Remote Assembly Area was relocated to its current location at the Oswego County Airport, which is located approximately 13 miles from the site (beyond the 10 mile EPZ) and is adjacent to the JIG and EOF. The current location is not in the prevailing downwind direction from the site, and offers more parking space and suitable structures (airport hangers) than either of the two designated areas.

Describe How the Proposed Change Complies with Relevant Emergency Preparedness Regulation(s) and Previous Commitment(s) Made to the NRC:
At a minimum, list here the 10CFR50.47 planning standards that are checked in the screening form. Applicable 10CFR50 Appendix E items should also be listed where appropriate. Multiple regulatory items may be combined with one Site Compliance paragraph provided for all if the Site Compliance statement is applicable to all.
NOTE that this is NOT a section for discussion of RIE (Part V), but is a discussion of WHY the regulatory requirements are still met with your change. Use the format provided in underline below. The text provided below is ONLY an example.
10 CFR 50.47(b)(2) - The process for timely augmentation of on-shift staff is established and maintained.
Site Compliance - Through implementation of this revision, system testing requirements have been established for the ERO Notification System to test the ERO on a weekly and quarterly basis through a combination of announced and unannounced tests, drills and exercises to ensure that timely augmentation of staff is practiced and continues to meet the regulatory requirements. Guidelines for performing these tests have been updated in this revision of the emergency plan. Re-test criteria have also been established in the event that test results do not meet activation expectations and compensatory actions are put into effect.
10 CFR 50.47(b)(6) - Systems are established for prompt communication to emergency response personnel.
Site Compliance - Through implementation of this revision, system testing requirements have been established for the ERO Notification System to test the* ERO on a weekly and quarterly basis through a combination of announced and unannounced tests, drills and exercises to ensure that the notification system is functioning properly and is capable of providing prompt communications to emergency response pe;sonnel and that personnel are responding appropriately and in a timely manner to the notifications. In the event that the test results do not meet activation expectations, re-test criteria included in the revised emergency plan will be followed and compensatory actions will be implemented.
This section REQUIRES a discussion of previous NRG commitments. Use the format provided in underline below. The text provided below is ONLY an example.
Previous NRC Commitments - The Regulatory Assurance Commitment Management System and NRG commitment system were reviewed for potential NRG commitment changes as a result of this revision. There were no identified conflicts with this emergency plan revision and the current listing of NRG commitments associated with the emergency plan. All current NRG commitments that relate to emergency response notification systems and conduct of drills continue to be maintained and fulfilled under this procedure revision.

Description of Emergency Plan Planning Standards, Functions and Program Elements Affected by the Proposed Change:
This section should be the simplest to complete. List the applicable emergency planning elements (sorted by 10CFR50.47 planning standard) checked in the screening. Use the format provided in underline below taken DIRECTLY from Attachment 9. 7.
- 10 CFR 50.47(b)(6) - Emergency Communications
- Systems are established for prompt communication among principal emergency response organizations.
- Systems are established for prompt communication to emergency response personnel. - IF the change does not involve all elements (bullets), THEN ONLY list those affected or potentially affected.
Section IV.E.9 of Appendix E to 10 CFR 50 provides supporting requirements. Informing criteria appear in Section 11.F of NUREG-0654 and the licensee's emergency plan.
- 10 CFR 50.47(b)(7) - Emergency Public Information
- Emergency preparedness information is made available to the public on a periodic basis within the plume exposure pathway EPZ.
- Coordinated dissemination of public information during emergencies is established. IF the change does not involve /'- - ,
all elements (bullets), THEN ONLY list those affected or potentially affected.
Section IV.D.2 of Appendix E to 10 CFR 50 provides supporting requirements. Informing criteria appear in Section 11.G of NUREG-0654 and the licensee's emergency plan.
DO NOT provide any other information in this section. This section is NOT for the RIE discussion - that is Part V.
However, you should compare this section to Part V to ensure that all applicable elements are addressed in your RIE discussion.

Description of Impact of the Proposed Change on the Effectiveness of Emergency Plan Functions:
This is the "meaf' of any evaluation. This section is where you prove that an RIE has not been caused by your change(s). Use clear, logical statements that an independent :fd party reviewer can follow and understand for WHY the change does not reduce the effectiveness of the emergency plan (e.g., "the proposed change does not affect planning standard (b)(5) because ... '?. It is NOT sufficient to state that the change does not reduce the effectiveness of the emergency plan without stating WHY, even if the reason seems perfectly clear to you.
If more than one change is being evaluated in the same document, each change must be addressed. An activity cari impact more than one program element or function under different planning standards. Each impacted element and function must be evaluated separately as a reduction in effectiveness. A reduction in effectiveness may occur in one planning standard but not in the other. Unless an activity results in repetitive identical changes or multiple activities result in interdependent changes, the reduction in effectiveness evaluation should be documented separately for each change.
A reduction in effectiveness is usually based on the change to a planning standard function. A change to one or more program elements may not always reduce the effectiveness of the associated planning standard function. A reduction in effectiveness will occur if there is a decrease in the capabilities or timeliness for performing or fulfilling a function or commitment without activities to compensate for the reduction.
An RIE is caused when the licensee's capability to perform an emergency planning function in the event of an emergency is reduced. Refer to Reg Guide 1.219 regulatory position 3.7a. A comparison of how the affected function, element or commitment is currently fulfilled and how it will be fulfilled as a result of the proposed activity should be documented. Documentation should include a discussion of the capability to meet or perform the function, element, or commitment that exists following the change compared to that which existed prior to the change. Timeliness of the function, element or commitment should also be addressed. Documentation should provide a clear basis for the any differences (e.g., special circumstances that require the difference in order to effectively perform the function or as a matter of convenience or operating philosophy). Documentation should qualify the difference as improving, sustaining or reducing the effectiveness of the planning standard function or commitment.
Use of keywords from the Reg Guide (regulatory position 3.6c) such as "resources," "capabilities" and "methods" is encouraged.
DO NOT use this section to prove EN-EP-305 step 5.5[4]a in the negative. That is ONLY to determine whether or not a change "screens out." For instance, you should not state that a change does not reduce the effectiveness of the emergency plan because "it does not change the meaning or intent of a description, does not make any changes to facilities or equipment and does not change a process." Find another reason OR go back and determine whether or not the change should have screened out in the first place.
When an RIE is not identified, conclude your evaluation with the following general statement:
The proposed changes to the (INSERT SITE NAME) emergency plan (OR OTHER DOCUMENT AS APPLICABLE) continue to meet the planning standards outlined in 10 CFR 50.47(LIST ALL APPLICABLE). The effectiveness of the emergency plan is not reduced. The changes can be incorporated without prior NRC approval."

BASIS FOR CONCLUSION Change 6 makes editorial changes to the procedure.
Changes 1-5: The 10CFR50.54(q) review process described in this procedure does not provide any means to address planning standards or elements as listed in 10CFR50.47(b) and Appendix E.IV of 10CFR50 (with elements shown above), but instead provides a methodology to determine whether or not the emergency plan continues to comply with these requirements. The procedure also provides the methodology for determining whether or not a proposed change or activity impacts the emergency plan and if it does, whether or not it results in a reduction (decrease) in effectiveness. A change to the process described in this procedure does not in itself directly result in any change to the emergency plan's described capabilities, timing criteria, materials or resources and therefore cannot and does not directly reduce the capability to perform emergency planning functions. In this sense, revision 4 of this procedure maintains the current effectiveness level of the emergency plan and does not affect a planning standard element/function listed above. These changes will not be evaluated. Further detail on each change is provided below.
Change 1: This procedure revision provides a separate method for the conduct of 10CFR50.54(q) reviews of activities that are not in themselves changes to the emergency plan. This change is compatible with the intention of 10CFR50.54(q}(3}, which reserves the determination of a reduction in effectiveness to emergency plan changes. 10CFR50.54(q}(2} requires that changes that are not emergency plan changes "follow and maintain the effectiveness of the emergency plan." Previous to this revision, the 10CFR50.54(q)(3) process was applied to all activities, whether emergency plan changes or not. This process did not provide optimal alignment with the regulation as described in 10CFR50.54(q)(2) and (q)(3}
because it applied a process for emergency plan changes (50.54(q)(3)) to all activities. This procedure revision corrects that process and improves alignment with the 10CFR50.54(q) regulation.

Title:
Emergency Planning 10CFR50.54(q) Review Program BASIS FOR CONCLUSION (Cont'd)
Change 2: Eliminates the NRG submittal requirement for Emergency Plan Implementing Procedure changes to address a change in the regulations. This change aligns the procedure with revised NRG regulations (revised December, 2015) in 10CFR50 Appendix E.V that eliminates the requirement for submittal of Emergency Plan Implementing Procedure (EPIPs) revisions to the NRG. The submittal of revised EPIPs to the NRG - whether required to be performed or not - has no affect or impact on the processes or facilities described in the EPIPs or in the site-specific emergency plan related to 10CFR50.47(b) planning standards or 10CFR50 Appendix E.IV emergency plan content. Therefore this change does not affect a planning standard element/function listed above.
Change 3: Clarifies training requirements as they apply to site Emergency Planning Managers. Previously, procedure step 5.7[1] stated that "personnel who prepare, review and/or approve 10CFR50.54(q) screenings and evaluations should be qualified to ensure that they are capable of performing those functions ... " .3 was provided to list and document required qualifications. The procedure was not clear how or if this attachment applied to Emergency Planning managers (approvers). The procedure has been revised to indicate that the attachment (new Attachment 9.4) does apply to Emergency Planning Managers in a limited fashion (required reading material). The required training for approvers of 10CFR50.54(q) documentation has no affect or impact on the processes or facilities described in the EPIPs or in the site-specific emergency plan related to 10CFR50.47(b) planning standards or 10CFR50 Appendix E.IV emergency plan content. Therefore this change does not affect a planning standard element/function listed above.
- Change 4: Eliminates flow charts. Previously, the procedure provided flow chart diagrams for the screening and evaluation processes in Attachments 9.5 and 9.6. These flow charts have been eliminated as an administrative change because they repeat a process already described in the procedure body.. Eliminating these flow charts does not change any process because they do not (and did not previously) establish a process, but reflect whatever process is already described in the body of the procedure.
Change 5: Adds tools to assist with the completion of 10CFR50.54(q)(3) screenings and evaluations and the performance of Project Manager Reviews. Attachments 9.9, 9.1 O and 9.11 are new additions to the procedure to assist personnel in completing screenings, evaluations and independent reviews of 10CFR50.54(q) documentation. These attachments are provided as aids only and do not provide procedure requirements. The use of the new procedure attachments in and of themselves has no affect or impact on the processes or facilities described in the EPIPs or in the site-specific emergency plan related to 10CFR50.47(b) planning standards or 10CFR50 Appendix E.IV emergency plan content. Therefore this change does not affect a planning standard element/function listed above.
This justification is sufficient to conclude that a 10CFR50.54(q) evaluation is not necessary because the change to the Entergy 10CFR50.54(q) process does not directly involve or affect site-specific emergency plan elements required to meet the Planning Standards in 10CFR50.47(b) or the requirements for emergency plan content in 10CFR50 Appendix E.IV. No further evaluation is required for this procedure revision.
