Enclosure 1 Summary of Changes Revisions to Beaver Valley Power Station Emergency Preparedness Plan and Implementing Procedures (Volumes 1, 2 and 3)

The following is a brief summary of the changes made to the Emergency Preparedness Plan/Implementing Procedures.

Emergency Preparedness Plan (Volume 1):

EPP-TOC "Emergency Preparedness Plan Table of Contents" Appendix C "Emergency Implementing Procedure Listing" Revision 13 updated the procedure listing with the proper procedure titles.

EPP/Implementing Procedures:

EPP/I-la "Recognition and Classification of Emergency Conditions" (Unit 1)

Revision 3 updated the ODCM values in Table 7-1 due to the addition of Zn-65 to the Reactor Coolant System.

EPP/I-lb "Recognition and Classification of Emergency Conditions" (Unit 2)

Revision 3 updated the ODCM values in Table 7-1 due to the addition of Zn-65 to the Reactor Coolant System.

EPP/IP 2.2 "Onsite Monitoring for Airborne Release" Revision 11 resulted in a total reformatting of this procedure. Section A was renamed "PURPOSE" and had several minor changes. Section B was replaced with the former section E, "REFERENCES," which had a new Condition Report reference added. A new section "RESPONSIBILITIES" was added as Section C.

The "PRECAUTIONS" section was renamed "ACTION LEVELS/

PRECAUTIONS" and is now Section D. The steps in this section were rearranged and renumbered, with new steps (under D.5.0) added for monitoring team vehicles. Section E (formerly section D) "PROCEDURE" was also rearranged and renumbered, with two new notes added (under E.5.0) regarding airborne activity. A new section "FINAL CONDITIONS" was added and will now be Section F. The previous section F "ATTACHMENTS" is now Section G.

Attachment 3 was updated with a new site map. Minor clarifications were also made to Attachments 4 and 5.

EPP/IP 9.4 "Activation, Operation and Deactivation of the Joint Public Information Center (JPIC)"

Revision 9 made a change in Attachment 1, clarifying Step 2 on page 10 (of 17) of the attachment, to note that the Media Monitor position reports to the Information Coordinator "through the Rumor Control Coordinator."

RESPONSIBILITY The Emergency Director (Shift Manager, until properly relieved by a designated alternate) has the responsibility and authority for the performance of the actions prescribed in this procedure.

D. ACTION LEVELS/PRECAUTIONS/GUIDANCE 1.0 ACTION LEVELS 1.1 An off-normal event has occurred.

1.2 An action step in a plant operating or emergency operating procedure refers to this procedure for classification of the indicated plant condition.

2.0 PRECAUTIONS 2.1 The Emergency Director must review all applicable EALs to ensure that the event is properly classified since a given INDICATOR may be associated with more than one CRITERION. A particular INDICATOR omitted from the fission product barrier matrix may be addressed as an event-based EAL in one of the other tabs. Event-based EALs may escalate to the fission product barrier matrix. The Emergency Director may need to consider related events (e.g., fire and explosion) or the possible consequences of the event (e.g., fire in an MCC resulting in loss of AC) in classifying an event.

2.2 Continued surveillance and assessment of plant conditions are necessary to ensure that the emergency classification is appropriately revised as conditions change, or as more definitive information is obtained.

2.3 If there is any doubt with regard to assessment of a particular EAL, the EAL Basis Document (i.e., Chapter4 of the EPP) entry for that EAL can be reviewed. Classifications shall be consistent with the fundamental definitions of the four emergency classifications (tabulated in Tab 4.7).

2.4 The Emergency Director shall take whatever mitigative or restoration actions are necessary to protect public health and safety. The Emergency Director shall not reject courses of action solely on the basis that the action would result in escalation of the emergency classification.

2 Revision 3

EPPlImplementing Procedure EPP/I-la Recognition and Classification of Emergency Conditions Unit 1 3.0 GUIDANCE 3.1 Structure of the EALs 3.1.1 There are two types of Emergency Action Levels included in this procedure:

3.1.1.1 Barrier-Based EALs: These EALs address conditions that represent pbtential losses, or losses, of one or more of the Fuel Clad, RCS, or Containment fission product barriers. INDICATORs of these conditions include CRITICAL SAFETY FUNCTION status, fundamental indications such as subcooling or reactor vessel water level; or -auxiliary indications such as containment radiation monitor readings. Classifications are based on the number of barriers lost or potentially lost.

3.1.1.2 Event-Based EALs: These EALs address discrete conditions or events that are generally precursors to fission 'product barrier degradation, or are otherwise degradations in the level of safety of the plant. Events may be external (e.g., severe weather, earthquakes, loss of offsiie power) internal (e.g., fires, explosions, instrumentation failure) or may involve radioactivity releases.

3.1.2 The EALs are grouped by recognition category as follows:

Tab 1 Fission Product Barrier Matrix Tab 2 , System Degradation Tab 3 Loss of Power Tab 4" Hazards and ED Judgement Tab 5 Destructive Phenomena Tab 6 Shutdown Systems Degradation Tab 7 Radiological 3.1.3 -Each of the EAL tabs includes one or more columns that address one initiating condition (e.g., fires). Each column provides EALs for each of the .four emergency classifications, as applicable. A notation adjacent" to each EAL identifies the plant operating mode(s) for which the EAL is applicable.

3 Revision 3

EPP/Implementing Procedure EPP/I-la Recognition and Classification of Emergency Conditions Unit 1 3.1.4 Each EAL is comprised of a CRITERION, printed in bold type, and one or more INDICATORs. The purpose of each is as follows:

3.1.4.1 CRITERION: identifies the emergency condition and any numeric values which define that condition (i.e., the basis of the declaration) All classifications are based on an assessment (i.e., detennination that the condition is VALID) by the Emergency Director that the CRITERION has been met or exceeded. Implicit in this protocol is the necessity for these assessments to be completed within 15 minutes (unless otherwise noted) of indications being available to Control Room operators that an Emergency Action Level (EAL) has been exceeded.

3.1.4.2 INDICATOR: is available via instrumentation, calculations, procedure Entry (AOPs, EOPs, etc.),

operator knowledge of plant conditions (pressure, temperatures, etc.) in the Control Room, or reports received from plant personnel, whichever is most limiting, or other evidence that the associated criterion may be exceeded. Upon occurrence of one or more indicators, the Emergency Director performs an assessment against the criterion. Depending on the particular condition, this assessment may be as simple as a review of the criterion, an instrument channel check, or a detailed calculation as in the case of a radioactivity release.

3.1.4.3 Inherent in this protocol is the necessity for these assessments to be completed within 15 minutes (unless otherwise noted) of sufficient indications being available to Control Room operators that an Emergency Action Level (EAL) has been exceeded.

3.1.4.4 The INDICATORs were selected with the objective of providing unambiguous guidance to assist with assessment of the CRITERION. There may be other INDICATORs not envisioned by the writers of this procedure that, in the judgment of the Emergency Director, correspond to the CRITERION. In these cases, the Emergency Director should base the declaration on engineering judgment, using the supplied INDICATORs as examples of the severity of the condition.

4 Revision 3

EPP/Implementing Procedure EPP/I-la Recognition and Classification of Emergency Conditions Unit 1 3.2 Common Plant Conditions

>3.2.1 IF an event occurs such that both reactor units are affected, e.g.,

tornado, toxic gas offsite, etc., THEN the senior Shift Manager shall make the appropriate classification and assume the role of

-Emergency Director..,

3.2.2 IF the common plant condition results in a higher emergency classification at one reactor unit, THEN the Shift Manager from that unit shall make the.appropriate classification and assume the role of Emergency Director.

3.3 Mode Applicability 3.3.1 The plant operating mode that existed at the time that the event occurred,-prior to any protective' system or "operator action initiated in response to the condition, is compared to the mode applicability of the EALs.

3.3.2 IF an event occurs, and a.lower or higher plant operating mode is reached 'before the clIassification can be made, THEN the classificati6n shall be'baed on the mode that existed at the time that the event occurred.

3.3.3 The fission -product barrier matrix is applicable only to those events that occur at 'node 4 or higher. An event that occurs in modes 5 or 6 shall not be' classified using the fission product barrier matrix, even if mode 4 is entered due to subsequent heatup.

In thesel cases,- Tab 6, .Shutdowr Systems Degradation, shall be used for classification.'

3.4 Transient Events 3.4.1 For some EALs -the existence of the event, without regard to duration, is sufficient to warrant classification. In these cases, the appropriate emergency' classification is declared as soon as the Emergency Director assessment concludes that the CRITERION is met.

3.4.2 Some EALs specify a duration of occurrence. For these EALs the classification -is 'made iwhen- Emnergency Director assessment concludes ,that Ithe' specified -duration 'is 'exceeded or will be bxie-ded (i.e.' condition can not be redsonzbly rectified before the "du-ation`elapses), whichever-is soorie'r.

5 Revision 3

EPP/Implementing Procedure EPP/I-la Recognition and Classification of Emergency Conditions Unit 1 3.4.3 IF a plant condition meeting an EAL CRITERION is rectified before the specified duration time is exceeded, THEN the event is NOT classified by that EAL. Lower severity EALs, if any, shall be reviewed for possible applicability in these cases.

3.4.4 IF a plant condition meeting an EAL CRITERION is NOT classified at the time of occurrence, but is identified well after the condition has occurred (e.g., as a result of routine log or record review) AND the condition no longer exists, THEN an emergency shall NOT be declared. However, reporting under 10 CFR 50.72 may be required. Such a condition could occur, for example, if a followup evaluation of an abnormal condition uncovers evidence that the condition was more severe than earlier believed.

3.4.5 IF an emergency classification was warranted, but the plant condition has been rectified (such that the CRITERION is no longer met) prior to declaration and notification, THEN the following guidance applies:

3.4.5.1 For transient events that would have been declared as UNUSUAL EVENTS, no emergency is declared.

However, the event shall be reported to those local, state, and Federal agencies designated to receive the initial notification form. These agencies shall be told that the UNUSUAL EVENT condition was rectified upon detection and no emergency is being declared.

3.4.5.2 For transient events that would have been declared as an ALERT, SITE AREA EMERGENCY, or GENERAL EMERGENCY, the event shall be declared and the emergency response organization activated. The EAL CRITERIA for these events has been set at a threshold that warrants declaration even if the initiating condition has been rectified. Termination can occur when the criteria of EPP/IP-6.2, Termination of the Emergency and Recovery can be satisified.

3.5 Declaration Timing and Assessment Emergency conditions shall be classified as soon as the Emergency Director assessment of the INDICATORs shows that the CRITERION is met. IF the EAL specifies a duration, THEN the event shall be declared as soon as it is determined that the condition cannot be corrected within the specified period. In either case, the assessment time starts from the indications being available to Control Room operators that an Emergency Action Level (EAL) has been exceeded.

6 Revision 3

EPPlImplementing Procedure EPP/I-la Recognition and Classification of Emergency Conditions Unit 1 3.5.1 The assessment time is limited to 15 minutes, except as follows:

3.5.1.1 IF the EAL specifies a duration (e.g., release exceeds 2x TIS for one hour), THEN the assessment time runs concurrently with the required duration AND is the same length (e.g., in this examtple, one hour).

3.5.1.2 The assessment time and any required duration are NOT additive., - .:

3.5.2 IF the assessment cannot be completed within the specified period, THEN the event must be, declared on the -basis of INDICATORs that cannot be reasonably discounted.

3.6 Bases 3.6.1 Chapter 4 of the BVPS EPP provides the bases for these EALs.

The bases can be used for guidance to assist the Emergency Director in classifying events for which the classification is not immediately apparent.

3.7 Defined Terms 3.7.1 In the EALs, words written in bold uppercase letters are defined terms having specific meanings as they relate to this procedure.

Definitions of these terms are provided on the reverse side of most pages in the EAL section of this procedure.- Such terms shall be interpreted as provided in the definitions.

E. PROCEDURE 1.0 DETERMINE OPERATING MODE THAT EXISTED AT THE TIME THAT THE EVENT OCCURRED PRIOR TO ANY PROTECTION SYSTEM OR OPERATOR ACTION INITIATED IN RESPONSE TO THE EVENT.

2.0 DETERMINE 'IF THE CONDITION AFFECTS FISSION PRODUCT BARRIERS AND, IF SO, PROCEED TO TAB 1.

1.2 An action step in, a plant operating or. emergency operating procedure refers to this procedure for classification of the indicated plant condition. "-

"2.0 PRECAUTIONS 2.1 The EmergencyDirector must review all applicable EALs to ensure that the event is properly classified since a given INDICATOR may be associated with more than one CRITERION. A particular INDICATOR omitted from the fission product barrier matrix may be addressed as an event-based EAL in one of the other tabs. Event-based EALs may escalate to the fission product barrier matrix. The Emergency Director may need to consider related events (e.g., fire and explosion) or the possible consequences of the event (e.g., fire in an MCC resulting in loss of AC) in classifying an event. , .

2.2 Continued surveillance and assessment of plant conditions are necessary to ensure that the emergency classification is appropriately revised as conditions change, or as more definitive information is obtained.

2.3 If there is any doubt with regard to assessment of a particular EAL, the EAL Basis Document (i.e., Chapter 4 of the EPP) entry for that EAL can be reviewed. Classifications shall be consistent with the fundamental definitions of the four emergency classifications (tabulated in Tab 4.7).

- 2.4- The Emergency Director .shall -take -whatever mitigative or restoration

. *. actions are necessary to protect public health and safety. The Emergency

- Director shall not reject courses of action solely on the basis that the action would result in escalation of the emergency classification.

3.0 GUIDANCE

.3.1 -Structure of the EALs I ::,  : 3.1.1 There are two types'of Emergericy Action Levels included in this S: . .procedure:

3.1.1.1 Barrier-Based EALs: These EALs address conditions that represent potential losses, or losses, of one or more of the Fuel Clad, RCS, or Containment fission product

,-- - =bariers INDICATORs of these conditions include CRITICAL SAFETY FUNCTION status, fundamental indications such as subcooling or reactor vessel water

-level,- or auxiliary indications such as containment radiation monitor readings. Classifications are based on

- the number of barriers lost or potentially lost.

k_ 3.1.1.2 Event-Based EALs: These EALs address discrete
  • conditions, or events that are generally precursors to fission product barrier degradation, or are otherwise

.. , degradations in the level of safety of the plant. Events may be external (e.g., severe weather, earthquakes, loss of qoffsite -'power) internal (e.g., fires, explosions, instrumentation failure) or may involve radioactivity c releases..

3.1.21 The EALs ae grouped by 'recognition category as follows:

Tab 1 Fission Product Barrier Matrix Tab 2 System Degradation Tab 3 Loss of Power'

'Tab 4 "-Hazards and ED Judgement

-Tab 5 Destructii)e Phenomena Tab 6 -Shutdown Systems Degradation Tab 7 Radiological Revision 3 3

EPP/Implementing Procedure EPP/I-lb Recognition and Classification of Emergency Conditions " Unit 2 3.1.3 Each of the EAL tabs includes one or more columns that address

, - one initiating condition, (e.g., fires). Each column provides EALs for each of the four emergency classifications, as applicable. A notation adjacent to each EAL identifies the plant operating mode(s) for which the EAL is applicable.

3.1.4 Each EAL is comprised of a CRITERION, printed in bold type, and one or more INDICATORs. The purpose of each is as follows:

3.1.4.1 CRITERION: identifies theeenierg~ncy condition and any numeric values which define that condition (i.e., the basis of the declaration) All classifications are based on an assessment (i.e., determination that the condition is VALID) by the Emergency Director that the CRITERION has been met or exceeded. Implicit in this protocol is the

. necessity for these assessments to be completed within 15 S*-minutes (unless otherwise noted) of indications being available to Control Room operators that an Emergency Action Level (EAL) has been exceeded.

3.1.4.2 INDICATOR:- is available via instrumentation, calculations, procedure Entry (AOPs, EOPs, etc.),

operator knowledge of, plant conditions (pressure, temperatures, etc.) in the Control Room, or reports received from- plant personnel, whichever is most limiting, or other evidence that the associated criterion may be exceeded. Upon occurrence of one or more

- indicators, .- the Emergency Director performs an assessment against the criterion. Depending on the particular condition, this assessment may be as simple as a review of the criterion, an instrument channel check, or a detailed calculation as in the 'case of a radioactivity release.

3.1.4.3 Inherent in this protocol is the necessity for these assessments to be completed within 15 minutes (unless otherwise noted) of sufficient indications being available to Control- Room operators that an Emergency Action Level (EAL) has been exceeded.

Revision 3 4

EPP/Implementing Procedure iEPP/I-lb Recognition and Classification of Emergency Conditions ,Unit 2 3.1.4.4 The INDICATORs were selected with the objective of providing unambiguous guidance to assist with "assessment of'the CRITERION:- There may be other "INDICATORs not envisioned by the writers of this procedure that, 'in the judgment of the Emergency Director, correspond to the CRITERION. In these cases, the Emergency Directo-r should base the declaration on engineering judgment, using the supplied INDICATORs as examples of the severity of the condition.

3.2 Common Plant C6hditiohs' 3.2.1 IF an evernt occurs such that both reactor units are affected, e.g.,

tornado, toxic gas offsite, etc., THEN the senior Shift Manager shall make'the,' appropriate classification and assume the role of

... *'Emergency' Director.- " -

3.2.2 -IF the common plani condition results in a higher emergency classification at one reactor unit, THEN the Shift Manager from

- that unit shall make 'the appropriate classification and assume the role of Emergency Director.

3.3 - Mode Applicability_

3.3.1 The plant olperating mode that existed at the time that the event occurred, prior toariy protective system or operator action initiated in response to the conrdition', iscompared to the mode applicability of the EALs.

3.3.3 The fissioniproductrbarrier matrix is applicable only to those events that occur at mode 4* or higher. An event that occurs in modes 5 or 6 "shall niotb be'classified using the fission product barrier matrix,

-even if mode 4 is entered due to subsequent heatup. In these cases,

'Tab' 6, Shutdown' Systems Degradation, shall be used for classificationi. m Revision 3 5

- - I 3.4 Transient Events .

3.4.1 For someý EALs -the existence of the event, without regard to duration, is sufficient to-warrant classification. In these cases, the appropriate emergency classification is declared as soon as the Emergency Director assessment concludes that the CRITERION is met.

3.4.2 *Some EALs specify a duration of occurrence. For these EALs the "classification is made when Emergency Director assessment concludes that the, specified duration is exceeded or will be exceeded (i.e., condition can not be reasonably rectified before the duration elapses), whichever is sooner.

3.4.3 IF a plant condition meeting an EAL CRITERION is rectified before "the specified duration time is exceeded, THEN the event is NOT classified by that EAL. Lower severity EALs, if any, shall be reviewed for possible applicability in these cases.

3.4.4 IF a ,plant condition meeting, an EAL CRITERION is NOT classified at the time of occurrence, but is identified well after the condition has occurred (e.g., as a result of routine log or record review) AND the condition no longer exists; THEN an emergency shall NOT be declared. However, reporting under 10 CFR 50.72 may be required. Such a condition could occur, for example, if a followup evaluation of an abnormal condition uncovers evidence that the condition was more severe than earlier believed.

3.4.5 IF an emergency classification was warranted, but the plant S..condition has been rectified (such that the CRITERION is no longer met) prior to declaration and notification, THEN the 1 applies:

following guidance 3.4.5.1 For transient events that would have been declared as UNUSUAL EVENTS,- no emergency is declared.

However, the event shall be reported to those local, state,

`,and Federal agencies :designated to receive the initial notification form. These agencies shall be told that the

-.. .UNUSUAL -EVENT, condition was rectified upon detection and no emergency is being declared.

Check radios away from the Control Room to minimize possible RF interference with instrument. Keep the radio operational at all times while'performing surveys in order to maintain communications with the OSC /TSC/EOF.

1.7 If the survey will be perforimed outside of the security fence; leave the station via the Primary Access Facility (PAF). Retain your personal dosimetry while performing radiological monitoring.

1.8 Record gas tank level. Ensure that there is at least a 1/2 tank of gas and a cigarette lighter which is in proper working condition. Obtain another vehicle if necessary.

1.9 Install radio equipment on the vehicle if vehicle is being used.

1.10 If OSC /TSC/EOF so direct, don protective clothing and/or respirators prior to going to survey location.

1.11 Proceed to first survey location, as assigned by the OSC/TSC/EOF as follows:

2.0 Continuing Actions NOTE:

Whenever, possible, an ion-chamber -instrument (such as the Eberline RO-series) should be used for making dose, rate measurements. An instrument with an energy compensated GM probe with the beta window closed (such as HP-270) is an acceptable substitute for gamma exposure measurements.

. During an Unusual Event, monitoring team data shall be reported to the Radiological Controls Coordinator. For higher emergencies the TSC will be activated and plume monitoring data shall be reported to the EA & DP Coordinator in the TSC/EOF or OSC H.P. Coordinator, as appropriate. , In-plant monitoring data shall be reported to the Radiological Controls Coordinator.

2.1 Periodically, read your pocket dosimeters, and have other personnel in the monitoring team read theirs. Report these readings at least every 30 minutes, or when accumulated dosimeter reading reaches 100 mrem.

2.2 Keep communication equipment on at all times.

RADIO PROTOCOL Because radio communications is one way at a time (unlike a telephone), the use of a standard protocol is necessary to minimiie confusion, speed operation and insure accurate transfer of information.

1) Begin a transmission with the name of the receiving party followed by the name of the transmitting party: For example,' "Beav'er-ValleyEA & DP this is Field Monitoring Team One, over". Wait for the receiving party to acknowledge before relaying data. During a series of exchanges, terminate each transmissioni with "over" to indicate to the other person that they may transmit. End the final transmissioinof a series with an appropriate termination phrase.

For example, "Monitoring Team One out".

2) Controllinig group (EA & DP, OSC) communicators must avoid general statements such as, "Monitoring tea~ms report your dosimeter readings". This can result in confusion due to simultaneous transmissions by two -or 'more teams. Direct such inquiries to each team in sequence. The only exception to this is if no response is needed from the individual teams.
3) Certain letters of the alphabet can be confused when said (V and B, P and B, as examples).

When spelling words for clarity or giving alphabetic designators, use the standard International Phonetic Alphabet shown in Step 7. Monitoring locations D.2.1 becomes "Delta point two point one". For a word like bat., say "I spell-bravo, alpha, tango", giving the phonetics slowly.

4) Give numerical information as digits rather than reading it as a number. 2432 becomes two, four, three, two rather than two thousand four hundred thirty two. 35.7 becomes three, five, point, seven rather than thirty five and seven tenths.
5) Report data as specified in the Field Monitoring EPP/IPs - that is by block location on the forms and without units such as mR/hr., cubic ft., or cpm. If units must be given, say them out millirem per hour, counts per minute, etc. Avoid jargon and abbreviations.
6) Insure correct data transferal by obtaining repeat backs of all data sent and provide repeat back or acknowledgment of messages received (Three-way Communications).
