2-1 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision 32 2.0 SCOPE AND APPLICABILITY The Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Emergency Plan has been developed to provide a description of the station's response during emergencies. The description includes organizational control, equipment, supplies, facilities, and protective actions that may be used in mitigating the consequences of an emergency. Emergency Preparedness exists to provide direction for emergencies varying in severity from relatively minor ones with no health and safety implications.

to events presenting an actual or potential offsite radiological hazard.

This Emergency Plan is a detailed expansion of the Updated Safety Analysis Report, Section 13.3.

It is intended to satisfy the requirements of Title 10 Code of Federal Regulations, Section 50, Appendix E, Emergency Planning and Preparedness for Production and Utilization Facilities.

Furthermore, this document satisfies the requirements ofNUREG 0654/FEMA REP. 1, Rev. 1, Criteria for Preparation and Evaluation of Radiological Emergency Response Plans and Preparedness in Support of Nuclear Power Plants.

This Emergency Plan is not the primary working document to be used during an emergency. The purpose of the Emergency Plan is to describe the program established at DBNPS to satisfy regulatory requirements and to safeguard the public and plant personnel in the event of an emergency.

2.1 Site Description The DBNPS is located on the southwestern shore of Lake Erie in Ottawa County, Ohio, approximately six (6) miles northeast of Oak Harbor, Ohio.

DBNPS employs a pressurized light water reactor steam supply system furnished by the Babcock & Wilcox Co. (now AREVA NP) to generate approximately 930 MWe. The reactor design core power is 2817 MWt.

The Station encompasses 954 acres, of which more than 700 acres is marsh land. A portion of the marsh land is leased to the U.S. Government as a natural wildlife refuge. The land area surrounding the site is generally agricultural, with no major industry in the vicinity of the site.

The topography in the vicinity ofDBNPS is flat, with marsh areas bordering the lake and the upland area rising to only 10-15 feet above the lake low water datum level. The site itself varies in elevation from marsh bottom, below Lake Level, to approximately six feet above the lake low water datum level.

The site has been built up from 6 to 14 feet above the existing grade elevation to an elevation of 584 feet International Great Lakes Datum (IGLD). This provides flood protection from the maximum credible water level conditions of Lake Erie. The three sides of the station with exposure to the lake are provided with a dike to an elevation of 591 feet IGLD to protect the facility from wave effects during maximum credible water level conditions.

I

2-2 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision 32 The Station structures are located approximately in the center of the site, 3000 feet from the shoreline. This provides a minimum exclusion distance of 2400 feet from any point of the site boundary.

Ohio Route 2 approaches the site from the city of Port Clinton, Ohio, to the southeast, and forms the west boundary of the site. At the north boundary of the site, Ohio Route 2 turns west and proceeds towards Oregon and Toledo, Ohio. Four (4) all-weather roads provide access to the site from Ohio Route 2. Figure 2-1 shows the general site location.

Site meteorological data for 2007 indicates that the prevailing winds at 10 meters above ground level are from the south/southwest. The average wind velocity at this level is 9.42 miles per hour (4.21 meters per second). Figure 2-2 shows the average wind distribution.

The primary source of potable water in the area is Lake Erie. The nearest offsite public potable water intake serves Camp Perry, the Erie Industrial Park, and surrounding residences; and is located approximately 2.8 miles from the site. Another potable water intake, which serves residents of Carroll Township, including Davis-Besse, is located approximately four miles west-northwest of the site. The Ottawa County Regional Water System's potable water intake is eight miles east of the site. This system serves Port Clinton, Oak Harbor and the eastern end of Ottawa County. The Toledo and Oregon intakes are 13 miles west of the site. Most of the residents in the vicinity of the site not serviced by the municipal water suppliers, either have their water trucked in, or utilize well water which is periodically tested for potability by local authorities. DBNPS personnel periodically test local water sources for radioactivity.

2.2 Population Distribution NOTE: The following information regarding population distribution is for historical purposes only. For current population estimates refer to Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Development of Evacuation Time Estimates, Final Report Revision 2, which has been prepared in accordance with NUREG 0654/FEMA Rev.-1, Appendix 4.

The near-site population is distributed from the southeast to the west northwest. The total permanent population in the 10-mile area surrounding DBNPS, based on 2010 Census information is 20,403 people. Approximately 89% of these people live 5 to 10 miles from the site. The population varies seasonally due to tourism in the area and the summer borne residents. Figures indicating the permanent and seasonal population distribution projections in the 0 to 2 mile, 2 to 10 mile, and 10 to 50 mile radii are included in Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Development of Evacuation Time Estimates, Final Report Revision 2, which has been prepared in accordance with NUREG 0654/FEMA Rev.-1, Appendix 4.

The EPZ permanent resident population is reviewed annually. If at any time during the decennial period the EPZ permanent resident population increases such that it causes the longest ETE value for the 2-mile zone or 5- mile zone, including all affected Emergency Response Planning Areas, or for the entire 10-mile EPZ to increase by 25 percent or 30 minutes, whichever is less, from the currently NRC approved or updated ETE, FENOC updates the ETE analysis to reflect the impact of that population increase. The updated ETE analysis is submitted to the NRC under 10 CFR 50.4 no later than 365 days after

2-3 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision 32 FENOC determines the criteria for updating the ETE have been met and at least 180 days before using it to form protective a,ction recommendations a,nd providing it to state and local governmental authorities for use in developing offsite protective action* strategies.

The nearest population center of 25,000 or more is Toledo, Ohio, 20 miles west-northwest of the site. Other population centers within a 50-mile radius in excess of 25,000 include Bowling Green (33 miles), Findlay (45 miles), Lorain (46 miles), and Sandusky (20 miles) in Ohio; Allen Park (40 miles),

Dearborn (40 miles),

Detroit (40 miles), Inkster (40 miles),

Lincoln Park (40 miles), Monroe (26 miles), Southgate (40 miles), Westland (40 miles),

and Wyandotte (41 miles), in Michigan; and Windsor (50 miles) in Ontario, Canada.

2.3 Emergency Planning Zones In defining the Emergency Planning Zones (EPZs) for the DBNPS, factors such as organizational capabilities, method of implementing the emergency plan, and the availability of onsite and offsite emergency facilities and equipment have been taken into consideration.

Two primary zones have been identified for development of emergency planning and implementation of the Plan. One zone has a 10-mile radius. This EPZ is referred to as the Plume Exposure Planning Zone. Within this zone, evacuation or sheltering may be recommended for the general public. The principal concern in the 10-mile EPZ is direct exposure from a passing plume and/or inhalation of radionuclides from the plume. This 10-mile EPZ is comprised of part of Ottawa County and part of Lucas County.

The second zone, the Ingestion Exposure Planning Zone, extends to a 50-mile radius. The principal concern in the 50-mile EPZ, or Ingestion Pathway EPZ, is long-term exposure from ingested material. Within the Ingestion Pathway EPZ, close monitoring of water, crops, dairy cows and farm animals may be necessary. It may also be necessary to segregate and/or remove contaminated items from the food chain (e.g., milk, fresh vegetables, etc.). This 50-mile EPZ is comprised of all of Ottawa, Lucas, Wood, Sandusky, Erie, Seneca, Huron, Lorain, Fulton, Henry, Crawford, Hancock, and Wyandot Counties in Ohio; and all of Monroe, Lenawee, Washtenaw and Wayne Counties in Michigan. Essex County and part of Kent County within the province of Ontario, Canada are also contained within this 50-mile Emergency Planning Zone.

Figures 2-3 and 2-4 show the 10-mile and 50-mile EPZs.

2.4 Regulatory Requirements 2.4.1 The Code of Federal Regulations contains requirements for emergency planning in the following sections:

SUMMARY

OF THE EMERGENCY PLAN The DBNPS Emergency Plan has been established in accordance with the requirements of 10 CFR 50.47 and Appendix E to 10 CFR 50, supplemented by the guidance issued by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission in NUREG-0654/ FEMA-REP-1 and other documents.

The Emergency Plan will be put into effect whenever a radiological emergency or other potentially hazardous situation is identified. The details of the Emergency Plan Procedures are not included herein, but a description of the scope of the procedures demonstrates that appropriate actions can be taken by DBNPS and other support agencies to protect station personnel and the general public during emergencies.

The Emergency Plan establishes the concepts, evaluation and assessment criteria, and protective actions that are necessary in order to mitigate the consequences of radiological emergencies. The plan provides for the necessary prearrangements, directions, and organization needed to safeguard station personnel, and the property and safety of the general public.

3 .1 Emergency Plan Steps In general, the Emergency Plan encompasses the following basic steps:

a) Recognition of the emergency b) Classification of the emergency c) Required notifications and activation of the responding organization(s) d) Ongoing assessment of the situation e) Periodic dissemination of updated information f) Determination and initiation of protective actions g) Determination and initiation of mitigative actions h) Aid to affected persons i) Reentry and Rec,overy During response to an emergency, several of the steps may be performed concurrently.

3 .2 Emergency Organizations This document establishes an organization capable of responding to the complete range of incidents covered herein.

Provisions are made for rapid mobilization of the response organization and for expanding the response organization if the situation dictates.

An individual with the authority and responsibility to initiate any emergency actions under the provisions of this Emergency Plan, including the release of information to the public/media, is onsite at all times. The Shift Manager assumes this authority by becoming the Emergency Director upon initial classification of an emergency. If the Shift Manager cannot assume these duties, authority is delegated to the Unit Supervisor or Shift Engineer (Shift Technical Advisor) in that order. The Emergency Plant Manager or Emergency Assistant Plant Manager may assume the Emergency Director position upon arrival in the Control Room. The Emergency Plant Manager may also assume the Emergency Director

3-2 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision 32 duties from the Technical Support Center. The designated Emergency Director, upon arrival in the Emergency Operations Facility (EOF) or Technical Support Center (TSC),

will assume this avthority.

The operating shift crew is responsible for implementing emergency procedures in accordance with assigned response functions. Emergency response functions are also assigned to off-shift plant staff personnel who can be rapidly alerted and mobilized, to augment or relieve the operating shift personnel of emergency duties.

If required, additional support is provided by the Fleet Emergency Response Organization.

Fleet emergency response management and their staff may provide technical, administrative, and logistical support to the onsite Emergency Organization. They may authorize emergency expenditures, coordinate the efforts of offsite support organizations, and maintain the flow of information to the public.

In addition, this plan includes the use of offsite agencies and organizations that have signed letters of agreement with the DBNPS. Their designated response functions include implementation of offsite protective actions, transporj:ation and treatment of personnel, control of access to the station, fire fighting support, radiological sampling and assessment, technical consultation, and testing. These offsite agencies and organizations include the following:

4-1 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision 32 4.0 EMERGENCY CONDITIONS 4.1 Emergency Classification Levels (ECLs)

The Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Emergency Plan emergencies are divided into four Emergency Classification Levels (ECLs): GENERAL EMERGENCY, SITE AREA EMERGENCY, ALERT, and UNUSUAL EVENT.

The ECLs are arranged from most severe to least severe according to relative threat to the health and safety of the public and emergency workers. An ECL is determined to be met by identifying abnormal conditions and then comparing them to INITIATING CONDITIONS (ICs) through EMERGENCY ACTION LEVELS (EAL) and Fission Product Barrier (FPB) threshold values as discussed below. When multiple EALs are met, event declaration is based in the highest ECL reached. Emergency Plan, Section 6.0, Emergency Measures, summarizes the emergency measures to be taken by both the Onsite and corporate emergency response organizations.

4.1.1 GENERAL EMERGENCY Events are in progress or have occurred which involve actual or IMMINENT substantial core degradation or melting with potential for loss of containment integrity or HOSTILE ACTION that results in an actual loss of physical control of the facility. Releases can be reasonably expected to exceed EPA Protective Action Guideline exposure levels offsite for more than the immediate site area.

4.1.2 SITE AREA EMERGENCY Events are in progress or have occurred which involve an actual or likely major failures of plant functions needed for protection of the public or HOSTILE ACTION that results in intentional damage or malicious acts: 1) toward site personnel or equipment that could lead to the likely failure of or, 2) that prevent effective access to equipment needed for the protection of the public. Any releases are not expected to result in exposure levels which exceed EPA Protective Action Guideline exposure levels beyond the site boundary.

4.1.3 ALERT Events are in progress or have occurred which involve an actual or potential substantial degradation of the level of safety of the plant or a security event that involves probable life threatening risk to site personnel or damage to site equipment because of HOSTILE ACTION. Any releases are expected to be limited to small fractions of the EPA Protective Action Guideline exposure levels.

4.1.4 UNUSUALEVENT Events are in progress or have occurred which indicate a potential degradation of the level of safety of the plant or indicate a security threat to facility protection has been initiated. No releases of radioactive material requiring offsite response or monitoring are expected unless further degradation of safety systems occurs.

4-2 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision 32 4.1.5 RECOVERY Recovery may be entered prior to returning to a normal organization and operation. Recovery provides dedicated resources and organizational structure in support of restoration and communication activities following the termination of the emergency event. Recovery phase is discussed in Section 9.0 of the Emergency Plan.

4.2 EMERGENCY CLASSIFICATION The Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station maintains the capability to assess, classify, and declare an emergency condition within 15 minutes of the availability of indications that an EAL has been exceeded. The 15-minute criterion commences when plant instrumentation, plant alarms, computer displays, or incoming verbal reports that correspond to an EAL first become available to any plant operator.

4.3 INITIATING CONDITION (ICs)

The INITIATING CONDITION (IC), EMERGENCY ACTION LEVELS (EALs) and the Fission Product Barrier (FPB) matrix with their related basis information are located in Appendix E of the Emergency Plan. The ICs provide a general description of emergency conditions that are organized beneath the broader categories of the ECLs. The IC can be a continuous, measurable function that is outside Technical Specifications, or encompass events such as FIRES or system/equipment failures.

Each IC is given a unique identification code consisting of four characters. The first character (letter) identifies the recognition category, the second character (letter) identifies the ECL, the third character (number) identifies the subcategory, and the fourth character (number) identifies the numerical sequence within the subcategory.

4.3.1 Recognition Category Codes

- F designates Fission Product Barrier Degradation

- R designates Abnormal Rad Levels I Rad Effluent

- H designates Hazards and Other Conditions Affecting Plant Safety S designates System Malfunctions

- C designates Cold Shutdown I Refueling System Malfunction

- E designates Dry Fuel Storage Facility (DFSF) 4.3.2 Emergency Classification Level CECL) Codes

- G designates GENERAL EMERGENCY S designates SITE AREA EMERGENCY

- A designates ALERT

- U designates UNUSUAL EVENT

4-3 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision 32 The specific details on Initiating Conditions and their use are found in RA-EP-01500, Emergency Classification. The basis for the Emergency Action Levels is contained in Appendix E, DBRM-EMER-1500 A, Davis-Besse Emergency Action Levels Basis Document.

4.4 EMERGENCY ACTION LEVELS (EALs) and Fission Product Barriers CFPBs)

EMERGENCY ACTION LEVELS (EALs) are predetermined, site specific, observable conditions within the ICs that place the state of the plant in a given ECL (Reference Emergency Plan, Appendix E).

EALs are individually identified by the IC identification code followed by the EAL number, such as RG 1.1 for major effluent release or HU3 .1 for tornado.

Fission Product Barriers (FPBs) are given unique character identification codes and are further subdivided into Loss and Potential loss categories. Meeting or exceeding one or more FPB can result in various ECLs. The first two letters simply identify the particular barrier by abbreviation. The letter in the FPB identification code associates it with a particular FPB recognition category. The FPB identification codes are developed as follows:

4.4.1 Barrier Abbreviation Codes FC designates FUEL CLAD

- RC designates REACTOR COOLANT

- CT designates CONTAINMENT 4.4.2 Fission Product Barriers (FPBs) Recognition Categories Codes A designates RCS or SG Tube Leakage

- B designates Inadequate Heat Removal C designates CT Radiation I RCS Activity

- D designates CT Integrity or Bypass

- E designates ED Judgment Fission Product Barrier Thresholds are listed within each Fission Product Barrier Category, and are identified by a sequential number.

FPBs are treated the same as EALs in that they exist only as long as the condition(s) for loss or potential loss exist, as opposed to ECLs which once declared, remain in place until termination or recovery.

For EALs that contain time imbedded criterion, the Emergency Director should not wait until the applicable time period has elapsed, but should declare the event as soon as it is determined that the condition will likely exceed the applicable time.

4-4 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision 32 4.4.3 Operating Mode Applicability For purposes of event classification, the following operating mode applicability definitions establish the conditions when the EAL or FPB thresholds represent a threat:

TABLE4-1 Operating Mode Applicability Reactivity %Rated Average Coolant Mode Condition, Keff Thermal Power* Temperature

1) Power Operation 2:: 0.99 >5% NIA
2) Startup 2:: 0.99 :SS% NIA
3) Hot Standby < 0.99 NIA 2:: 280° F
4) Hot Shutdown <0.99 NIA 280° F > Tavg > 200° F
5) Cold Shutdown <0.99 NIA  :::; 200° F
6) Refueling One or more vessel head closure bolts less than fully tensioned.

D) Defueled All reactor fuel removed from reactor pressure vessel (full core off load during refueling or extended outage).

  • Excluding decay heat.

The Operating Mode Applicability table is based on the Technical Specifications definition of Operational Mode. ICs are based on the operating mode that exists at the time the event occurred, prior to any protective system or operator action initiated in response.

For events that occur in Cold Shutdown or Refueling, escalation is via EALs that have Cold Shutdown or Refueling for mode applicability, even if Hot Shutdown (or a higher mode) is entered during any subsequent heat-up. In particular, the FPB threshold values are applicable only to events that initiate in Hot Shutdown or higher. If there is a change in operating mode following an event declaration, any subsequent events involving EALs outside of the current declaration escalation path will be evaluated on the mode of the plant at the time the subsequent events occur.

4.4.4 Treatment of Multiple Events and Classification Level Upgrading When multiple simultaneous events occur, the emergency classification level is based on the highest EAL reached. For example, two ALERTS remain in the ALERT category; or, an ALERT and a SITE AREA EMERGENCY is a SITE AREA EMERGENCY.

Although the majority of the EALs provide very specific thresholds, the Emergency Director must remain alert to events or conditions that lead to the conclusion that exceeding the EAL is IMMINENT. If, in the judgment of the Emergency Director, an IMMINENT situation is at hand, the classification should be made as if the threshold has been exceeded. While this is particularly prudent

4-5 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision 32 at the higher emergency classification levels (as the early classification may provide for more effective implementation of protective measures), it is nonetheless applicable to all emergency classification levels. Figure 6-1 illustrates the scheme for upgrading emergency classification based on current conditions.

4.4.5 Emergency Classification Level Downgrading Another important aspect of usable EAL guidance is the consideration of what to do when the risk posed by an emergency is clearly decreasing. A combination approach involving recovery from a GENERAL EMERGENCY and some SITE AREA EMERGENCIES and termination from UNUSUAL EVENTS, ALERTS, and certain SITE AREA EMERGENCIES causing no long term plant damage appears to be the best choice. Downgrading to lower emergency classification levels adds notifications but may have merit under certain circumstances. Figure 6-1 illustrates the options for downgrading or termination of events based on current plant conditions. Recovery phase is discussed in Section 9 .2.

4.4.6 Classifying Transient Events For some events, the condition may be corrected before a declaration has been made. The key consideration in this situation is to determine whether or not further plant damage occurred while the mitigative actions were being taken. In some situations, this can be readily determined, in other situations, further analyses (e.g., coolant radiochemistry sampling) may be necessary. Classify the event as indicated and terminate the emergency once assessment shows that there were no consequences from the event and other termination criteria are met.

Existing guidance for classifying transient events addresses the period of time of event recognition and classification (15 minutes). However, in cases when EAL declaration criteria may be met momentarily during the normal expected response of the plant, declaration requirements should not be considered to be met when the conditions are a part of the designed plant response, or result from appropriate operator actions.

There may be cases in which a plant condition that exceeded an EAL was not recognized 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. In these cases, an emergency should not be declared.

Reporting requirements of 10 CFR 50.72 are applicable and the guidance ofNUREG-1022, Event Reporting Guidelines, 10 CFR 50.72 and 50.73, should be applied.

5-1 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision 32 5.0 ORGANIZATIONAL CONTROL OF EMERGENCIES In planning for emergencies the availability of the normally present operating staff, augmented by support from other utility personnel and offsite support agencies, is considered. The initial phase of an emergency at DBNPS will involve a relatively small number of individuals. These ,

individuals will be capable of: (1) determining that an emergency exists, (2) providing initial classification and assessment, (3) promptly notifying other groups and individuals in the emergency organization, and (4) performing actions immediately necessary to protect site personnel and the public. The follow-on phases of an emergency situation may require an increasing augmentation of the emergency organization. In the case of a SITE AREA EMERGENCY or a GENERAL EMERGENCY, this will result in the mobilization of all personnel resources of the Company, under the direction of a Senior Company Officer.

This section of the Emergency Plan addresses the assignment of personnel and the establishment of responsibilities and authority for the:

5.1 DBNPS Organization 5 .2 DBNPS Emergency Management 5 .3 Onshift Emergency Response Organization 5.4 Onsite Emergency Response Organization 5.5 Near Site Emergency Response Organization 5.6 Joint Information Center (TIC) 5.7 Corporate Assistance Center (CAC) 5.8 Supporting Emergency Organizations 5.1 DBNPS Organization Daily operating and engineering activities at DBNPS are under the control of the Vice President - Nuclear.

DBNPS has engineering service contracts with the Nuclear Steam Supply System (NSSS) supplier and the Architect-Engineer. Organizational structure and communication arrangements exist to assure that these services are available and can be obtained in a timely manner.

5.1.1 Plant Management and Administrative Organization The General Plant Manager directs and supervises all operating, administrative, technical and maintenance activities in connection with the continuous, efficient and safe operation of the DBNPS.

To support the General Plant Manager, an administrative organization has been established. Responsibilities have been assigned for the various aspects of station operation.

5-2 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision 32 5 .1.2 Onshift Operations Group The Normal Onshift Operations Group at the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station maintains the capability at all times to perform the emergency detection, classification, and notification functions required in the early phases of an incident.

These capabilities are augmented, as required, by the Onsite Emergency Response Organization and the Fleet Emergency Response Organization.

The Onshift Operations Group conforms with ANSI Nl 8.1, and includes both management and operating personnel. Figure 5-1, Onshift Emergency Organization, shows the functional levels. The Onshift Maintenance Support Organization maintains a 24-hour shift rotation. The shift includes persons from the Mechanical, Electrical, and Instrument and Control Maintenance Sections.

These personnel form the initial nucleus staff of the OSC. Other continuous duty, 24 hour2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />s-per-day organizations include Plant Operations, Chemistry, Radiation Protection and Security. Additional Maintenance personnel and the various Engineering organizations are onsite during normal work hours, Monday through Friday, excluding holidays.

5.1.3 Normal Plant Shift Staffing The plant's operating staff meets or exceeds the requirements of Technical Specification 5.2.2 and Technical Requirements Manual 10.2.1. Table 5-1 MANPOWER, LOCATION, AND RESPONSE CONSIDERATIONS FOR EMERGENCIES, A. ONSHIFT MINIMUM STAFFING REQUIREMENTS describes the minimum on shift staffing utilized to support the emergency plan.

In addition, the plant is continuously manned with a minimum shift complement consisting of the following:

1 Chemistry Tester 1 Radiation Protection Technician 5 Fire Brigade Members (may have other assignments)

  • Nuclear Security Force
  • *safeguards information An established duty roster system provides access to plant management 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> a day.

Table 5-1 specifies minimum shift requirements as prescribed by NUREG-0654, Table B-1.

The Shift Manager directs the onshift personnel operating the station and verifies that their work is performed according to approved procedures. Ultimate authority for directing all phases of plant operations always lies with the Shift Manager.

The Shift Manager becomes the Emergency Director upon classification of an emergency at DBNPS.

A Unit Supervisor, who is assigned to each shift during power modes, assists the Shift Manager by following his directives in supervising employees engaged in controlling the operations of the Nuclear Steam Supply System, Turbine Generator, and other station equipment. During an emergency, the Unit Supervisor

5-3 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision 32 may also direct employees to function as emergency maintenance personnel or to assist fire brigade team members. The Unit Supervisor assumes the role of Shift Manager, including Emergency Director duties, should the Shift Manager become incapacitated.

A Shift Engineer (Shift Technical Advisor) is normally assigned to the shift to relieve the Shift Manager of administrative responsibilities, such as coordination of maintenance schedules, establishment of short term objectives for plant operation and review of documentation. In addition, the Shift Engineer (Shift Technical Advisor) also provides the additional technical and analytical capability needed in the Control Room, during all operating modes except refueling and cold shutdown, to support the diagnosis of off-normal events. If available, the Shift Engineer (Shift Technical Advisor) serves as the technical assistant to the Shift Manager in analyzing and mitigating such events, and may perform dose assessment calculations during emergencies. The Shift Engineer (Shift Technical Advisor) may serve as the Emergency Director if both the Shift Manager and the Unit Supervisor are incapacitated. Under certain circumstances, the Shift Engineer (Shift Technical Advisor) position may be filled by an onshift Senior Reactor Operator assigned another function, such as Shift Manager.

The Security Shift Supervisor is responsible for coordinating the functions of the station security forces, and the operation and testing of security-related equipment.

A Security Shift Supervisor will be onsite at all times.

5-4 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision 32 5.2 DBNPS Emergency Management In the event of a declared ALERT or higher level emergency, the Onsite and Near Site Emergency Response Organization (ERO) shall be activated.

Upon declaration of an emergency, the Onshift Maintenance personnel report directly to the Shift Manager and implement the functions of the OSC until the facility is fully activated by the Onsite Emergency Response Organization. During the initial stages of an emergency, the Onshift Maintenance personnel are responsible for performing Mechanical Maintenance, Electrical Maintenance, and Instrument and Controls Maintenance support functions.

5-8 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision 32 5 .4 Onsite Emergency Response Organization 5.4.1 Overview During an emergency, an Onsite Emergency Response Organization will be activated. The assignment of responsibilities in the Onsite Emergency Response Organization is ultimately the responsibility of the Vice President, Nuclear.

However, the Emergency Response Manager is responsible for establishing and maintaining a predefined Onsite Emergency Response Organization. Alternate assignments to various positions are specified to provide for timely, automatic, and unambiguous manning to satisfy emergency response requirements.

In general, the Onsite Emergency Response Organization will be housed in three onsite facilities. These facilities are briefly described below:

a. Control Room Control Room staff will control the operation of the power plant during both normal and emergency operations.
b. Technical Support Center (TSC)

TSC staff will assess plant conditions, and provide management and technical assistance to the Control Room, as required, to mitigate the effects of the emergency event. The TSC staff will analyze and track parameters relating to the technical EALs, and will advise the Emergency Director of the need to reclassify the emergency.

In the event that the onsite TSC is not accessible TSC personnel will utilize the Alternate TSC at the Lindsey Emergency Response Facility.

c. Operations Support Center (OSC)

OSC staff will provide emergency maintenance and radiation monitoring support, as requested by the Control Room; and provide emergency support, as required, for onsite material acquisition, fire fighting, and first aid.

5-9 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision 32 5.4.2 Direction and Coordination Procedurally, the Onsite and Near Site Emergency Response Organization is ,

activated when an emergency is classified at the ALERT level or higher. The response times for the various emergency positions within the organization are specified in Table 5-1. The primary function of the Onsite and Neat Site Emergency Response Organization is to relieve the Control Room staff of those duties and responsibilities not directly related to the operation of the primary and secondary plant systems.

6-1 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision 32 6.0 EMERGENCY MEASURES This section identifies the specific measures that are taken for each class of emergency defined in Section 4.0, "Emergency Conditions", of this Plan. The logic presented in this section is the basis for detailed Emergency Plan Procedures which define the emergency actions to be taken for each emf<rgency category. Emergency measures begin with the following:

a. The recognition and declaration of an emergency.
b. Notification of the applicable agencies for each emergency classification.
c. Mobilization of the appropriate portions of the emergency response organization.

Emergency measures can be classified as falling into one of the following categories:

a. Assessment Actions
b. Mitigative Actions
c. Protective Actions Figure 6-1 is a summary of typical emergency measures, which may be appropriate for each classification of emergency. Figure 6-2 indicates the groups and organizations that will be notified at each emergency classification.

6.1 Activation of the Emergency Response Organizations If conditions at Davis-Besse meet or exceed a predetermined value or condition specified as an EAL in the emergency classification procedure, the provisions of this plan, and those of the specific procedures shall be implemented.

Specific emergency action levels for each emergency category are defined in Section 4.0. The Shift Manager, acting as Emergency Director, will implement this plan by initially classifying the emergency and ensuring that required notifications are made.

When an emergency classification level is declared or upgraded, initial notifications are promptly made to offsite response organizations. Notification and mobilization of federal, state and local agency response personnel is performed in accordance with their applicable emergency plan and procedures.

  • State and Local Response Agencies State and local agencies receive within fifteen (15) minutes an initial notification message of an event declaration (initial or an escalation). General Emergency classifications also include Protective Action Recommendations (PARs) within that same 15 minutes. Any subsequent changes to PARs continue to be provided to the agencies within 15 minutes.
  • Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC)

The NRC is notified immediately after notification of the appropriate state and local agencies and not later than one (1) hour after the time of initial event declaration, escalation to a higher classification lev~l, emergency termination or entry into recovery.

6-2 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision 32 The NRC is notified using the dedicated Emergency Notification System (ENS) by an individual knowledgeable of the event. If the ENS is inoperative, the required notifications are made via, commercial telephone service. An open, continuous communication line is maintained with the NRC Operations Center upon request. An NRC Event Notification Worksheet (Form 361) may be utilized to assist in communicating event and plant information to the NRC.

For hostile action events, the NRC is notified immediately following or concurrent with state and local notifications.

Other event notifications related to emergency response capabilities not associated with an emergency classification level are performed in accordance with 10 CFR 50.72.

  • Support Organizations Medical, rescue, and firefighting support services are notified for assistance as the situation dictates.

The Institute of Nuclear Power Operations (INPO) is notified at an Alert or higher classification with requests for assistance as necessary.

I The American Nuclear Insurers (ANI) are notified at an Alert or higher classification with requests for assistance as necessary.

Vendor and contractor support services are notified for assistance as the situation dictates.

Following the notifications made to the counties, state, and NRC; notifications will be made to the General Plant Manager, the Manager of Operations, and the Emergency Director, or their designated alternates. The Em:ergency Assistant Plant Manager, working closely with the Shift Manager, will continually assess the emergency to verify that the most appropriate classification is made.

Depending on the level of the emergency and its severity, portions or all of the onsite and offsite EROs and the CAC will be mobilized as detailed below:

6.1.1 Shift Manager/Control Room Operations

a. Should emergency conditions arise, it is expected that the Control Room Operator(s) and/or the Shift Manager will be made aware of the situation by alarms, instrument readings, reports, etc. The Control Room Operator(s) will ensure that the Shift Manager is immediately informed of the situation. The Shift Manager will direct the Control Room staff to inform the Emergency Director and Station Management immediately.

}

b. The Shift Manager, when informed of an emergency situation, is responsible for assessing the emergency (e.g., plant systems and reactor core status, radiological conditions, etc.) in the following manner:
1. Determine the immediate actions to be taken (e.g., use of Abnormal Procedures and the Emergency Operating Procedure) to ensure the safe and proper operation of the plant. The Shift Engineer, acting as Shift Technical Advisor (STA), will advise and assist the Shift Manager on matters pertaining .

to the safety and proper operation of the plant, with regards to nuclear safety.

6-3 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision 32

2. If the situation requires implementation of the DBNPS Emergency Plan, the Emergency Director will:

a) Classify the emergency. Classification of emergencies is a non-delegable responsibility of the Emergency Director.

b) Ensure that the appropriate alarm (Fire, Access Evacu~tion, or Initiate Emergency Procedures) is sounded.

c) Announce the location, type and classification of the emergency on the station public address system (twice).

d) Implement the applicable Emergency Plan Procedure.

e) Notify the following personnel and organizations of the emergency conditions:

1) Nuclear Security Supervision.
2) Station Management.
3) Ottawa County Sheriff/EMA (within 15 minutes).
4) Lucas County Sheriff/EMA (within 15 minutes).
5) Ohio State Highway Patrol/EMA (within 15 minutes).
6) Key Emergency Response Personnel.
7) NRC, Emergency Operations Center, Bethesda, Maryland (within one hour).

f) Provide periodic follow-up notifications.

g) Recommend protective actions for public protection, as needed.

Recomniending public protective actions is a non-delegable responsibility of the Emergency Director.

3. Due to the numerous responsibilities assigned to the Shift Manager at the onset of an emergency, he will perform the following actions in their listed priority.

a) Ensure the safe operation of the plant.

b) Ensure that immediate notification requirements are met.

c) Dispatch, in the event of radiological emergencies, Radiation Protection (RP) personnel to appropriate locations within the protected area.

d) Perform additional emergency actions as time and conditions permit.

6-4 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision32 6.1.2 Emergency Director The designated Emergency Director, upon being informed that an emergency exists and has been declared by the Emergency Director on-shift will:

a. Review information, data, and methods used by the on-shift Emergency Director (Shift Manager) in making the emergency classification. The Emergency Director may NOT delegate the responsibility of classifying emergencies.
b. Determine, to what extent the Emergency Response Organization (ERO) will be activated, using the following guidelines:
1. For an UNUSUAL EVENT, key individuals in the ERO will be alerted or mobilized at the discretion of the Emergency Director.
2. For an ALERT, all of the ERO will be activated. Key individuals in the CAC will be alerted. *
3. For a SITE AREA EMERGENCY or GENERAL EMERGENCY, the entire ERO, and the CAC will be activated.
c. Ensure that the Emergency Response Organizations have been activated as indicated above. (If not already performed by Control Room staff.)
d.
  • Report to the TSC/EOF and relieve the Emergency Director.
e. Ensure that the Periodic Update Form, as provided in the Emergency Plan Procedures, is completed and supplied to the state and county Emergency Management Agencies.

Protective actiOn recommendations, for the Plume Exposure EPZ, is a non-delegable responsibility of the Emergency Director.

f. Ensure that dose rate calculations, in accordance with the Emergency Plan Procedures, are performed periodically. A total population dose estimation may also be performed.

6.1.3 Ottawa and Lucas County Sheriffs' Offices Dispatchers at the Sheriffs' Office for both counties, will notify key county officials and organizations, according to established procedures.

6.1.4 Ottawa County and Lucas County Emergency Management Agency Directors The County EMA Directors will ensure that their county EROs are activated when necessary, and will notify municipalities near DBNPS.

6.1.5 Ohio Emergency Management Agency (OEMA)

The OEMA will ensure that applicable state agencies and organizations are notified and will ensure the State Emergency Operations Center is activated when necessary. Additional state agencies are contacted depending on the severity of the emergency classifications. These notifications are made in accordance with the State of Ohio emergency plan.

6-5 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision 32 The OEMA will have Radiological Monitoring Teams and an accident assessment team respond to an emergency at DBNPS. The accident assessment team will set up an operations center at the local governmental Emergency Operations Center. Using estimates from utility and offsite monitoring teams; and local governmental official's input, the accident assessment team will perform independent accident assessment activities to determine:

a. Protective measures including evacuation.
b. Actions to control exposure to radioactivity.
c. What further sampling of milk, food chain, water and air will be required.

If deemed appropriate, the accident assessment team will request assistance from responding federal agencies in accordance with the State of Ohio emergency plan.

6.1.6 Federal Agencies (Other than NRC)

The NRC, as the cognizant federal agency, will request assistance from other federal agencies/

when and if deemed appropriate.

Station management may also request assistance and/or information from federal agencies (other than the Department of Energy Radiological Assistance Program) as appropriate to the circumstances.

State organizations arid agencies may consult with their federal counterparts if appropriate.

If required, the Department of Energy Radiological Assistance Program teams can be expected to begin arrivi~g at the site in 4 to 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> following notification. The first teams to arrive will have some survey instruments and air samplers. A mobile environmental monitoring lab can be expected to arrive at the site in 6 to 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br />. Appendix B contains a reference to the Radiological Assistance Program with the DOE to provide radiological assistance.

6.1.7 Ohio Department of Health The Ohio Department of Health, Radiological Health Unit, maintains a communications link with the U.S. NRC, Region III Office, from which assistance and support may be requested.

6-6 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision 32 6.2 Assessment Actions Effective coordination and direction of all elements of the emergency organization requires continuing accident assessment throughout an emergency situation. Each emergency class invokes_ similar assessment methods; however each classification imposes a different magnitude of assessment effort.

In the following sections, assessment actions taken for each emergency classification are outlined.

6.2.1 Assessment Actions for an UNUSUAL EVENT The declaration of an UNUSUAL EVENT arises when a specific Emergency Action Level for this classification has been met.

Recognition of the need to declare the event will result from alarms, instrument readings, severe weather warnings, a security threat to facility protection, operating experience, or any combination thereof.

Continuing assessment actions to be performed for this category of emergency will be in accordance with the Emergency Plan Procedures and consist of the normal monitoring of Control Room and plant instrumentation and status, until the situation is resolved. Tornado and severe weather assessment actions consist of keeping in contact with the system dispatcher and the appropriate public authorities. If a fire prompted the declaration of an UNUSUAL EVENT, the Fire Brigade Captain will go to the fire location, make continuing assessments, and report to the Shift Manager on whether offsite fire fighting support is required. If a security event is in progress, then the emergency organization will immediately implement procedures for security events or threats.

6.2.2 Assessment Actions for an ALERT Once an incident has been classified as an ALERT, assessment actions will be performed in accordance with the Emergency Plan Procedure for an ALERT. These actions include:

a. Increased surveillance of in-plant instrumentation.
b. If possible, the dispatching of shift personnel to the identified problem area to confirm and visually assess the problem.
c. The dispatching of personnel to monitor for possible releases, and to confirm the correct classification.
d. If a radiological incident is occurring, surveillance of the in-plant instrumentation necessary to obtain meteorological and radiological data required for calculating or estimating projected doses. Dose assessment activity will continue until termination of the emergency, so that assessment updates may be provided to all concerned offsite agencies and to the Emergency Director. Emergency Plan Procedures are provided to allow a rapid, consistent projection of dose.
e. If a security event is ih progress, then the emergency organization will immediately implement specific procedures for security events or threats.

6-7 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision 32 6.2.3 Assessment Actions for a SITE AREA EMERGENCY Assessment actions for the SITE AREA EMERGENCY category are similar to the actions for an ALERT. However, due to the increased potential for a possible release, assessment activity of greater scope will occur. The personnel necessary for this assessment effort will be provided by mobilization of the onsite and offsite EROs.

These actions include:

a. An increased amount of plant instrumentation will be monitored. (In particular, indications of core status, e.g., incore thermocouple readings, etc.)
b. Radiation monitoring efforts will be greatly increased. Radiation Monitoring Teams will be available for immediate dispatch. Beta-gamma field measurements may be performed; air sampling, environmental thermoluminescent dosimeter (TLD) change out, and collection of environmental media for assessment of material transport and deposition will be performed as necessary.
c. Dose assessment activities will be performed more frequently, with an increased emphasis on dose projection for use as a factor in determining necessary protective actions. Radiological and meteorological instrumentation readings will be used to project the dose rate at predetermined distances from the station, and to the potential integrated dose.

In reporting the dose projections to the Emergency Director or to offsite agencies, the dose rate, dose, and basis for the time used for the dose estimate will always be provided. Confirmation of dose rates by RMTs will be reflected in reports and/or revised dose estimate information provided to offsite agencies.

All dose projections will be performed in accordance with the Emergency Plan Procedures which incorporate recommendations found in EPA-400-R-92-001 Manual of Protective Action Guides and Protective Actions for Nuclear Incidents. Reports to offsite authorities will include the relationship of dose to these guidelines.

Emergency Plan Procedures are provided for recording pertinent information.

d. If a security event is in progress, then the emergency organization will immediately implement specific procedures for security events or threats.

6.2.4 Assessment Actions for a GENERAL EMERGENCY Assessment actions for the GENERAL EMERGENCY category are the same as for the SITE AREA EMERGENCY, with some possible increase in the scope of dose assessment/projection activities. Additionally, since projected doses are likely to be much closer to EPA Protective Action Guidelines (PAGs), greater emphasis will be placed on the assessment of release duration. Judgments and assumptions used for dose assessment will be documented.

6-8 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision 32

-6.3 Mitigative Actions Detailed operating procedures are available for use during emergencies, as well as during normal operations. Specific Emergency Operating Procedures and Abnormal Procedures are provided to assist the operators in placing the plant in a safe condition, and ta1cing necessary supplemental mitigative actions. In addition, operations personnel are trained in the operation of the plant systems and their associated procedures, and are therefore capable of taking appropriate mitigative actions based on their training, knowledge,,and experience.

Selected DBNPS Staff personnel, including Operations, Radiation Protection, Chemistry, and Maintenance personnel are trained and assigned to emergency teams. These teams are capable of responding to situations as set forth in the Emergency Plan Procedures, to assess conditions and take appropriate mitigative actions. Maintenance personnel will provide the necessary expertise to effect damage control and repair activities.

Mitigative actions will normally be planned events that are taken to gain control of, or terminate the emergency situation. Planned radioactive releases, or mitigative actions that may result in a radioactive release will be evaluated by the Emergency Director and staff as far in advance of the event as is possible. Such events and data pertaining to the release, will be reported to the appropriate offsite organizations and/or agencies. DBNPS recommendations to authorities regarding the Plume Exposure EPZ are the non-delegable responsibility of the Emergency Director.

6.4 Protective Actions Protective actions are emergency measures taken during or after an emergency situation to minimize or eliminate the hazard to the health and safety of the general public and/or station personnel. Such actions taken onsite are the responsibility of Company management, while those taken offsite fall under the jurisdiction of the State of Ohio and other offsite response agencies. All visitors to the Protected Area will be either escorted by an employee or receive training on actions required by them during an emergency.

6.4.1 Plant Site Protective Actions During an emergency, sheltering or evacuation of personnel may be required to prevent or minimize exposure to radiation and radioactive materials. The following sub-sections present information on policies concerning such situations. Figure 6-3 illustrates the routes to be taken from the site if evacuation becomes necessary.

a. Plant Site (within the protected area):

All personnel within the site protected area at the time of the declaration of an emergency, will be notified of the emergency by audible or visual alarms and verbal announcement over the public address system (Gai-Tronics). Personnel may be instructed to report to assembly areas. Personnel will be trained as to the location of assembly areas and the suggested routes to each. Visitors will assemble with their escorts, or be escorted offsite. At the assembly areas, members of the emergency organization will conduct personnel assembly and evacuation (if required).

6-9 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision 32 Accountability within the protected area is coordinated by the OSC Manager and Security. The goal for completion of personnel accountability is 30 minutes. Results are forwarded to the Emergency Director. Once established, accountability within the protected area will be maintained throughout the course of the event. Specific guidance for performing accountability can be found in the Emergency Plan Procedures. Search for and rescue of missing persons will be performed in accordance with Emergency Plan Procedures.

Sheltering at onsite locations will be ordered when the projected dose would be less than or equal to that received during evacuation. For essential personnel who must remain within the protected area following an evacuation (e.g., Operations and Security personnel), particular attention will be paid to their radiation dose for ALARA purposes.

If a localized emergency exists, evacuation of the affected facility or area can be performed. Access to this area should then be restricted. The Protected Area will be evacuated if a SITE AREA EMERGENCY has been declared or if, at the discretion of the Emergency Director/Shift Manager, a personnel hazard exists. Nonessential personnel shall be evacuated from the site if a GENERAL EMERGENCY has been declared, or if, at the discretion of the Emergency Director/Shift Manager, site evacuation is warranted for personnel safety reasons. Access control will be established by Security to prohibit the entry of unauthorized personnel to the protected area.

Personal vehicles will be used for site evacuation. Nonessential personnel may be evacuated to the designated offsite assembly area; the Lindsey Service Center, or other company facilities as appropriate. Personnel and vehicles will be monitored for contamination at the offsite assembly area, if necessary, prior to release.

b. Plant Site (Outside the Protected Area):

All personnel onsite, but outside the protected area will be notified, at the declaration of an emergency, of conditions that may affect them. Personnel outside of the range of the Gai-Tronics system will be notified via bullhorn. Additionally, site personnel who are assigned pagers will automatically receive notification of the emergency condition.

Personnel may be instructed to report to the nearest assembly area as described below.

At other site locations (i.e., Davis-Besse Training Center, Davis-Besse Administration Building and Annex, Warehouse), key personnel have been delegated responsibility for receiving emergency information and disseminating such information to personnel in these areas. If assembly becomes necessary, Assembly Area Coordinators will perform these functions and report the results to the Emergency Director.

c. Hostile-Action Based Protective Actions Hostile-Action Based, or security related, emergencies offer different challenges to the site organization. Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station has incorporated a range of protective actions for onsite personnel during a hostile action event, consistent with the possible threat (including land/water based, as well as airborne attacks). Generally, these protective actions may include considerations for:
  • Site evacuation via normal exits

6-10 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision 32

  • Site evacuation via alternate means
  • Dispersal of plant operators and essential ERO members
  • Take Cover (sheltering in place for personnel onsite)

Arrangements for accounting for personnel after a hostile action have been made. When the site is secure, all personnel who were in the protected area when the hostile action occurred will be accounted for as promptly as possible while not interfering with critical safe reactor shutdown activities or known medical emergencies. The details of these protective actions are described in site implementing procedures.

6.4.2 Offsite Protective Actions:

Responsibility for implementing actions to protect personnel in offsite areas rests with State and local officials, and is described in detail in the The Ohio Radiological Emergency Preparedness Plan and the Ohio Emergency Operations Plan (under a separate cover), and is implemented in conjunction with The Ottawa County Radiological Emergency Response Plan, and The Lucas County Radiological Emergency Response Plan (under separate covers).

At a General Emergency classification Davis-Besse, through the Emergency Director, shall make offsite protective action recommendations to state and local authorities, based on emergency conditions. The FENOC PAR determination process has been developed in accordance with NUREG-0654 Supplement 3 revision 1, and its PAR logic diagram. The process includes consideration of precautionary protective actions, wind persistence, rapidly progressing release scenarios, hostile-action based events, and termination of protective actions. It also includes considerations that embody Offsite Response Organizations input at the various decision points as identified in the guidance.

Offsite protective action recommendations will be made for affected predetermined subareas.

(Refer to the Ohio Radiological Emergency Preparedness Plan and the Ohio Emergency Operations Plan for description of the Davis-Besse 10-mile emergency planning zone subareas.) The preferred offsite protective action recommendation (PAR) is evacuation. A sheltering PAR will be considered when known roadway impediments impact the ability to evacuate a large portion of the Emergency Planning Zone, during a controlled short duration release, and during a Hostile-Action based event. Dose to the public from any actual or potential radiological release are evaluated prior to the determination of these sheltering recommendations.

The means to warn or advise persons involved in taking protective actions is the responsibility of the Ottawa County EMA Director, Lucas County EMA Director, and the Ottawa and Lucas County emergency organizations. These counties are responsible for the preparation and dissemination of public information material related to implementation of protective actions for the general public. The Ottawa County Sheriffs Office will authorize the broadcast of appropriate Emergency Alert System messages to the public, when necessary. The general content of these messages is contained in the Ottawa County Plan, the Lucas County Plan, and the State of Ohio Plan.

6-11 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision 32 6.4.3 Use ofOnsite Protective Equipment and Supplies Table 6-1 summarizes typical protective action recommendations for the general public and emergency workers. Tables 6-2, 6-3, 6-4, and 6-5 provide guidelines for the expec~ed local protection against direction and inhalation exposure afforded by structures. The following onsite locations have been designated for assembly and dispatch of emergency teams:

a. Operations Support Center
b. Radiological Testing Laboratory.

'I The exact location, type, and quantity of emergency equipment and supplies is specified in the Emergency Plan Procedures.

6.4.4 Contamination Control Measures

a. Station Area:

Access to the owner-controlled area will be limited. Contamination control within the station shall be exercised in accordance with approved Radiation Protection procedures.

b. Offsite Areas:

It is the responsibility of the State Department of Agriculture, in conjunction with the Department of Health and the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency, to issue guidance and coordinate actions to control the use and transport of contaminated agricultural products.

6.4.5 Ingestion Pathway Control Measures The Ingestion Pathway EPZ (50-mile radius) has been established to address the additional concern for ingestion of contamination. There are two levels at which protective actions may be recommended by the State (i.e., preventive and emergency levels) for food and water contamination. Suggested action levels for ground, food, and water contamination are given in Table 6-6.

6.5 Aid to Affected Personnel 6.5 .1 Emergency Personnel Exposure /

Under emergency conditions, it may not be possible to perform mitigative/protective actions, while maintaining exposure (i.e., radiation doses) below limits specified in 10CFR20. Saving a life, measures to circumvent substantial doses to population groups, or preservation of safety related equipment, may be sufficient cause for above normal doses.

The following are the exposure limits based on EPA-400-R-92-001 guidance for these emergency activities:

6-12 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision 32

a. Mitigative/protective actions:

Limit doses to the following when protecting valuable property and lower doses are not practicable:

n

1. 10,000 mrem Total Effective Dose Equivalent (TEDE)
2. 30,000 mrem Lens Dose Equivalent (LDE)
3. 100,000 mrem:
  • Total Organ Dose Equivalent (TODE)
  • Shallow Dose Equivalent (SDE) to the skin of the whole body or to any extremity
b. Lifesaving actions:

Limit doses to the following when protecting large populations or performing life saving activities and lower doses are not practicable:

1. 25,000 mrem TEDE
2. 75,000 mrem LDE
3. 250,000 mrem
  • Total Organ Dose Equivalent (TODE)
  • Shallow Dose Equivalent (SDE) to the skin of the whole body or to any extremity The Emergency Director has the authority to permit the above exposures in excess of the 10 CFR 20 occupational dose limits. This responsibility may be delegated to the Emergency Plant Manager. ,

Personnel involved in any of the above actions must be volunteers, and cognizant of the effects of such doses.

Emergency worker dose records shall be maintained in accordance with Davis-Besse RP Procedures.

Although doses in excess of the normal legal limits may be authorized, the Emergency Director will ensure that all doses are kept ALARA.

6.5.2 Thyroid Blocking A ready supply of suitable thyroid blocking agent is maintained and available for use by emergency workers. Guidance for administration of the blocking agent will be provided by medical advisors, and is specified in emergency plan procedures.

The Emergency Director or, when designated, the Emergency Plant Manager shall authorize the use of the thyroid blocking agent, i.e., potassium iodide (KI).

6-13 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision 32 The State of Ohio has elected to distribute and stockpile potassium iodide (KI) for the general public. At a General Emergency the Ohio Department of Health in coordination with the local Health Departments may elect to recommend that the general public take potassium iodide.

6.5.3 Decontamination and First Aid Decontamination materials, including specialized equipment and supplies are available in station decontamination areas. Portable instruments for personnel monitoring and portal monitors are available at the RCA entrance. Decontamination showers and sinks, both of which drain to the radwaste system, are also located in the Decontamination Area.

Action levels for determining the need for decontamination of personnel and equipment are specified in the Davis-Besse RP Procedures.

Personnel found to be contaminated will be decontaminated by Radiation Protection personnel (or other qualified personnel, as specified in RP Procedures). It is preferred that personnel decontamination be performed by trained RP personnel.

Measures shall be taken to prevent the spread of contamination. Such measures may include isolating the affected areas, placing contaminated personnel in "Clean" clothing before moving them, and decontaminating affected personnel, their clothing, and equipment prior to release.

Emergency first aid and medical treatment will be given to injured personnel who are contaminated. Station personnel trained in first aid are available onsite, on a 24-hour basis, and will assist injured personnel. Provisions have been made to ensure contaminated and injured personnel receive specialized medical treatment, if necessary. H. B. Magruder Hospital, ProMedica Memorial Hospital, and Mercy St. Charles Hospital have agreed to accept contaminated patients for emergency medical and surgical treatment. If affected personnel must be transported, measures will be taken to limit the spread of contamination.

Any contaminated patient moved to an offsite facility will be accompanied by a member of the RP staff. If during the same incident, more than one victim is involved, the first victim will be accompanied by a member of the RP staff who will remain at the receiving facility during transport of the remaining patients. If more than one offsite facility is involved, then a member of the RP staff shall be present at each offsite facility. If necessary, a physician may be requested to provide onsite medical assistance.

  • 6-14 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision 32 6.5.4 Medical Transportation Ambulance service for Davis-Besse is provided for by a letter of agreement with Carroll Township Emergency Medical Service.

6.5.5 Medical Treatment Arrangements for hospital and medical services for injured and/or contaminated/over-exposed personnel are provided for by letters of agreement with the. Magruder Hospital; ProMedica Memorial Hospital; Mercy St. Charles Hospital.

The services of the radiological emergency assistance provider assures personnel providing services are prepared and qualified to handle radiological emergencies.

7-1 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision 32 7.0 EMERGENCY FACILITIES AND EQUIPMENT This section describes the equipment and facilities used at DBNPS to:

  • Assess the extent of accident hazards.
  • Mitigate the consequences of an accident.
  • Provide protection to station personnel.
  • Support accident mitigation operations.
  • Provide immediate care for injured personnel.

A diagram identifying the emergency facilities and their general location relative to each other, is included as Figure 7-1, "Emergency Facilities by General Location". Many of the DBNPS facilities and much of the equipment is normally used for routine plant operations. Other items are reserved for use only on an "as needed" basis.

7.1 DBNPS In-Plant Emergency Facilities 7 .1.1 Control Room

a. The Control Room is the location from which the plant is operated. It contains the instrumentation, controls, and displays for:
1. Nuclear systems
2. Reactor coolant systems
3. Steam systems
4. Electrical systems
5. Safety systems (including eng~eered safety features)
6. Accident monitoring systems.

The operating shift is staffed in accordance with TS 5.2.2 and TRM 10.2.1 requirements. Control manipulations and the safe operation of the plant are directed by the Senior Reactor Operator licensed Shift Manager and Unit Supervisor, and are performed by licensed Reactor Operators.

b. During abnormal operating conditions, the complexity of Station responsibilities increases significantly and the Control Room transforms into an emergency response center. These responsibilities include the following:
1. Diagnosing the abnormal conditions.
2. Performing mitigative actions.
3. Mitigation of abnormal conditions.
4. Management of plant operdtions.
5. Management of emergency response.
6. Informing Federal, State, and local officials.
7. Recommendations for public protective measures to State and local officials.
8. Restoring the plant to a safe condition.

9, Recovering from the abnormal conditions.

7-2 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision 32 Initially, Control Room personnel will assume all of these responsibilities.

However, by activating other emergency response facilities, much of this responsibility is turned over to other personnel.

During emergencies, the Emergency Assistant Plant Manager uses the Shift Manager's Office, which is within the Control Room envelope, to observe and provide guidance to the Shift Manager for direction and control of in-plant activities.

7.1.2 Operations Support Center (OSC)

The OSC is on the fourth floor of the Personnel Shop Facility (PSF). The area designated for the OSC consists of a conference room and an adjacent storage room. The OSC is the assembly and dispatch point for damage control and repair teams.

7.2 Davis-Besse Administration Building (DBAB) Facilities The DBAB contains the Emergency Response Facilities (ERFs) necessary to assist Control Room personnel in accident assessment and abnormal operating conditions. The ERF area of the DBAB has been designed to provide radiological habitability for approximately 30 days during a design basis accident, as described in Chapter 15 of the Davis-Besse Updated Safety Analysis Report.

Within this protected environment, the ERFs function to:

1. Help the Control Room staff determine the plant safety status.
2. Relieve the Control Room staff of peripheral duties and communications not directly related to reactor system manipulations.
3. Prevent congestion in the Control Room.
4. Provide assistance to the operators from technical personnel who have comprehensive plant data at their disposal.
5. Provide a coordinated emergency response by both technical and management personnel.
6. Provide reliable communications between onsite and offsite emergency response personnel.
7. Provide relevant plant data to the NRC for its analysis of abnormal plant operating conditions.

The DB~ Annex and th~ second floor of the DBAB provide general administrative office space for the Station. The ERFs are on the first floor and are either in the restricted (north end) or unrestricted areas (south end).

The restricted area consists of two mechanical equipment rooms, a computer equipment room, telephone equipment room, Technical Support Center (TSC), TSC Library, Radiological Testing Laboratory (RTL), badging area, kitchen, and two areas designated as private office space.

7-3 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision 32 The unrestricted area consists of th~ Energy Education Center (EEC), a Site Emergency Operations Center (SEOC) and several work/conference rooms. The DBAB is approximately 2100 feet from the Control Room. They are linked by a paved road which is completely contained within the site security boundary.

The water supply to the DBAB can store up to 4,000 gallons within the buildings, if necessary.

Electrical power for the DBAB is supplied by the grid through a power structure approximately 200 feet east of the building. Backup power is provided by a diesel generator and vital loads are protected by an uninterruptible power supply.

The electrical and mechanical systems within the DBAB are computer controlled and activated using the Central Control and Monitoring System (CCMS). This system maintains building temperature and ventilation, and provides security alarms, trouble alarms, and fire protection, as conditions may warrant. For fires, an alarm on the CCMS can automatically activate the dry main sprinkler system in the records management vault; or a wet main sprinkler system in any other area.

To minimize radiation exposure, two emergency ventilation air handling units are provided; one for the restricted area (north end) and one for the remaining areas (south end). By design, either unit can supply the restricted area, should the primary unit fail. Upon local activation, the units will switch to the recirculation mode employing high efficiency filters to minimize the introduction of airborne radiation sources into the emergency facilities.

7.2.1 Technical Support Center (TSC)

The TSC serves as the workplace for key ERO personnel who, during emergencies, assist the Control Room staff, perform accident assessment, and determine appropriate protective actions. The TSC provides for direct voice and data communication wit~ the Control Room. The TSC also contains the Safety Parameters Display System (SPDS).

The SPDS computer was designed to provide sufficient Station information and data communication for operations personnel to evaluate and diagnose station conditions and activities so as to conduct emergency operations in an orderly manner. The SPDS provides data communication to the EOF, TSC, and Control Room. Because the SPDS ai,ds in the detection and monitoring of plant transients and accidents, the SPDS is capable of functioning during and following most events expected to occur during the life of the station.

The TSC is in the restricted side of the DBAB.

The TSC contains workspace for up to 25 people, within a main work area and three conference areas.

Activation and operation of the TSC is contained in the Emergency Plan Procedures.

7.2.2 Radiological Testing Laboratory (RTL)

The RTL is a facility near the TSC for equipping and dispatching Radiological Monitoring Teams; and for the receipt, counting, and disposition of potentially contaminated environmental samples. The RTL reports to the Dose Assessment Coordinator in the near site EOF.

7-4 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision 32 The RTL is on the ground floor of the DBAB.

7.2.3. Private Office Areas Two areas are available as private office space for the NRC Site Director and other key emergency response officials. These office areas are in the restricted area of the DBAB.

7 .2.4 Equipment Rooms The telephone equipment room contains communications equipment necessary to connect the site telephone system into company and external phone systems.

Two mechanical equipment rooms contain redundant systems for electrical distribution, heating and ventilation, and compressed air. Both mechanical equipment rooms are in the restricted side of the DBAB.

7-5 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision 32 7.3 Near Site Emergency Response Facility The near site emergency response facilities are located near Lindsey, Ohio at the corner of SR 20 and SR 590. The facility houses the Emergency Operations Facility, the Alternate TSC and a muster area for station personnel. The facility has access to station radio and public Address systems. The facility is equipped with an uninterruptable power system and an emergency diesel generator. The Near Site Emergency response Facilities include the following:

7.3.l Emergency Operations Facility (EOF)

The EOF provides a central location for the development of protective action recommendations by DBNPS and for representatives from offsite organizations. The EOF staff evaluates the magnitude' and effects of actual or potential radioactive releases, and provides management assistance in the decision-making process to protect the public health and safety. Recommendations are based on station conditions with radiological and meteorological data obtained, through the Safety Parameters Display System (SPDS). The EOF utilizes various communication systems to establish and maintain communications with State, Federal, and local officials, and mobile Radiation Monitoring Teams (RMTs).

The EOF provides space for at least 22 people.

Activation and operation of the EOF is described in the Emergency Plan Procedures.

7 .3 .2 Alternate TSC The Alternate TSC provides a location for the TSC in the event that the onsite TSC is not available. The Alternate TSC is equipped with those drawings, procedures, computer system and communications to be able to support the onsite response.

Activation and operation of the Alternate TSC is described in the Emergency Plan Procedures.

7.3.3. Muster Area A Muster Area for approximately 75 individuals is available for the staging of personnel in the event that the station is not accessible.

7.4 Other Company Emergency Facilities 7.4.1 Joint fuformation Center (llC)

The Joint Information Center (llC) is the emergency facility for coordinating news statements and providing joint media briefings during an event at Davis-Besse. The Company, state, local and federal agencies represented at the nc jointly prepare news information for release to the public via the news media. Equipment and work spaces for Public fuformation Officers and their staffs are provided to support timely communications on plant status and emergency response actions. nc facilities include news briefing areas for electronic and print media representatives. nc support is available for any plant emergency. However, facility activation is mandatory at (and above) the Alert emergency

7-6 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision 32 classification level. The nc is located at a FirstEnergy Corporation facility outside the 10-mile EPZ.

7.4.2 Corporate Emergency Facilities Company facilities located throughout the service districts are available to provide support for the Corporate Assistance Center (CAC). Certain Company facilities have been designated to support coordination of CAC activities and centralized management of Company resources. The primary company facility identified for Fleet Emergency Response Support is the Corporate Assistance Center (CAC), located at the unaffected FirstEnergy nuclear station/plant..

7.5 County and State Emergency Operations Centers 7 .5 .1 Ottawa County Emergency Operations Center Potential or actual emergencies at Davis-Besse could impact those persons who reside in Ottawa County within the 10-mile Emergency Planning Zone. To aid in protecting these residents, Ottawa County has a dedicated Emergency Operating Center (EOC) which meets the minimum federal criteria for space, communications, warning systems, and supplies.

The EOC is in the basement of the Ottawa County Courthouse Annex, in Port Clinton, Ohio. Communications during an emergency at Davis-Besse are coordinated through this facility, and the Ottawa County Sheriff's Office.

Davis-Besse dispatches a technical liaison to the EOC to help to aid offsite officials in understanding the event.

7.5.2 Lucas County Emergency Operations Center Potential or actual emergencies at Davis-Besse could impact those persons who reside in the eastern portion of Lucas County within the 10-mile Emergency Planning Zone. To aid in protecting these residents, Lucas County has a dedicated Emergency Operating Center (EOC) which meets the minimum federal criteria for space, communications, warning systems, and supplies.

The EOC is located in the Lucas County Emergency Services Building, 2144 Monroe Street, Toledo, Ohio. Communications during an emergency at Davis-Besse are coordinated through this facility, and the Lucas County Sheriff's Office.

Davis-Besse dispatches a technical liaison to the EOC to help to aid offsite officials in understanding the event.

7 .5 .3 State of Ohio Emergency Operations Center The State Emergency Operations Center is operated by the Ohio Emergency Management Agency, in Worthington, Ohio. During an emergency, representatives from all State agencies assemble at the State EOC to manage the response efforts. A technical liaison will also be sent to the State EOC, to help coordinate communications and provide technical advice.

7-7 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision 32 A reliable communications system, utilizing the Fixed Monitor Station Network of the State Highway Patrol, ties all areas, and both the Ottawa and Lucas County Emergency Operations Centers into the State EOC.

1.6 Communications Systems 7.6.1 Normal Communications Systems A comprehensive communications network with backup capabilities has been provided to assure reliable communications among the various emergency facilities and agencies. The network is composed of the following systems:

a. Onsite Commercial telephone systems:
1. A Private Branch Exchange (PBX) is used by the station for telephone communications. The PBX system provides six in/out bound offsite communications paths.
  • 2 paths connect to the FirstEnergy company communications system.
  • 3 priority circuits travel to Toledo where then connect to the commercial telephone system.
  • 1 priority circuit connects directly into the local commercial telephone system.

The PBX system is self-contained to the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station and has backup power.

2. In addition to the company PBX system, there are also a limited number of lines that bypass the PBX system and are connected directly into the local phone company."
b. Near site Commercial telephone systems:
1. Voice over IP service from the Akron Ohio West Akron Campus
c. A public address system (Gai-tronics), which is totally separate from the telephone system, includes handset stations, loud speakers, and portable station jacks. It provides five normal plant channels, five maintenance channels, two switchyard maintenance channels, and four fuel handling channels. Access to the Gai-tronics system is available at the near site emergency response facilities.
d. A radio system capable of transmitting and receiving the following types of voice communications:
1. A two-way mobile channel is normally used by service dispatchers in various locations to mobile units. *
2. A channel for direct radio communicatio~s with the Ottawa County Sheriffs dispatcher.
3. A channel used exclusively by Security.

7-8 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision 32

4. A channel used by the Maintenance Department for normal day-to-day transmissions.
5. A channel is used by Operations personnel for normal day-to-day transmissions.
e. Radiation Monitoring Teams communicate on a five-channel trunked 800 megahertz radio system. Cellular telephones are also available if needed.
f. Alpha-numeric pagers are carried by key emergency responders to provide 24-hour a day coverage. Emergency classifications are communicated to emergency responders and can be used to communicate with other key personnel.
g. A Computerized Automated Notification System (CANS) is available to facilitate the notification process. The system is composed of a minimum of 26 phone lines.

One telephone line is dedicated for system activation by the Control Room or Security, and the others are connected to the telephone network. The CANS is capable of sending notification messages to all ERO mobile devices and individually calling all emergency response personnel. The system communicates the emergency classification and logs personnel response times.

7 .6.2 Emergency Communications Systems

a. The following phone systems are dedicated for emergency communications:
1. The Davis-Besse 4-Way Phone including the State and County EOCs, the Ohio Highway Patrol Office, the Lucas County and Ottawa County Sheriffs dispatcher offices, the Emergency Operations Facility, and the Control Room.
2. A diverse network of commercial telephones, on uninterruptable power has been installed to provide:
a. NRC Emergency Notification System (ENS) telephone ("red phone").
b. NRC Health Physics Network (HPN) telephones.
c. Emergency Response Data System (ERDS) data lines.
3. Media press lines.
b. DBNPS has also established two separate communication bridges between various ERFs to ensure reliable and timely exchange of information between the emergency organizations. These bridges consist of the following:
1. Technical Data Bridge Provides a technical data link for the following:

a) Control Room b) Technical Support Center c) Emergency Operations Facility d) Operations Support Center

7-9 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision 32

2. Radiation Management Bridge Provides dedicated communications for radiological conditions and radiation protection management information among the following:

a) Control Room b) Technical Support Center c) Operations Support Center d) Dose Assessment Center 7.6 .3 Maintenance of Emergency Telephone Numbers The communication system which has been provided assures reliable onsite and offsite communications in any emergency. DBNPS maintains an Emergency Plan Telephone Directory, which is kept current by the Emergency Response Manager. This directory is reviewed quarterly and includes ERO personnel, the radiological emergency assistance provider, hospitals, local, state, and federal agencies, and others with special qualifications for emergency support.

7.7 Alarms There are three station alarms as follows:

7.7.1 FIRE - Rise and Fall Siren 7.7.2 ACCESS EVACUATION -Pulsed Tone Burst 7.7.3 INITIATE EMERGENCY PROCEDURES - Warbled Tone The alarms are activated from the Control Room. The FIRE, INITIATE EMERGENCY PROCEDURES, and ACCESS EVACUATION alarms sound in all plant areas (i.e., station office building, personnel shop facility, radiologically controlled area, fuel handling area, outdoor areas, primary access facility, etc.)

7-10 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision 32 7 .8 Prompt Notification System Early warning of, and instructions to the population-at.:risk are done under the direction of the Ohio Emergency Management Agency (OEMA) in conjunction with local officials, the Ottawa County Emergency Management Agency, and the Lucas County Emergency Management Agency. Prompt notification by the DBNPS is the vital first link in this process.

Once local and state authorities have been notified, several methods to warn the population-at-risk can be utilized. The method used and the time required will depend upon the severity of the situation. The methods available are:

7.8.1 Prompt Notification System (PNS) - Fifty-four high powered rotating sirens have been installed to provide an acoustic alerting signal for the residents and transients within the 10-mile radius of the Davis-Besse Station. Each siren is equipped with an independent battery backup which will allow operation during the loss of normal AC electrical power.

The sirens have been located to meet the design objectives of Appendix 3 in NUREG-0654/ FEMA-REP-1, REV. 1. Local authorities activate the warning sirens from the Ottawa County Sheriffs Office. The sounding of the Prompt Notification System alerts the public to tune to local radio stations for EAS messages.

The PNS sirens are tested from the Ottawa County Sheriffs Dispatch Center as follows:

  • A three-minute audible test is performed at least once per year
  • A one-minute audible test is performed at least monthly
  • A three-minute, one-minute or a silent test is performed weekly Back-up Alert and Notification Methods - Backup alert and notification for the Davis-Besse 10-mile EPZ is achieved through pre-planned route alerting. This method has been approved by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). County emergency management agencies will be prepared to make special provisions such as back up route alerting for those areas with sirens out of service, in the event of an emergency. The route alerting system utilizes planned routes for each siren that is unable to be activated.

7 .8.2 Emergency Alert System (EAS) - State and local authorities can broadcast information, instructions, and necessary bulletins to the general public over the EAS (e.g., from the local Sheriffs offices or their Emergency Operations Centers).

7.8.3 NOAA National Weather Service alert monitors can be pulsed, and automatically turned on to disseminate emergency information.

7.8.4 Central Dispatching -The Ottawa and Lucas County Sheriffs Offices have central dispatches, manned 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> a day, to communicate with the police, fire, medical responders, and the OEMA.

7.8.5 Commercial Paging System - A paging system, backed up by the local telephone service, is used to permit immediate contact of local officials.

7-11 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision 32 7.8.6 Emergency Vehicles - Vehicles with loudspeakers can be dispatched to various remote locations to broadcast warning messages.

7.8.7 House-To-House Notification - Local fire and police departments can perform house-to-house notification of residents in the affected areas around the plant.

Notification times have been included in the Evacuation Time Estimate. Information and appropriate advisories developed for the public, including transient areas, concerning the actions to be taken during an emergency, are available. Pertinent information can also be found in the local telephone directories.

Additional information regarding warning capability and information to transient areas around the plant can be found in The Ottawa County Plan for Response to Radiation Emergencies at Licensed Nuclear Facilities,Section II Part D; The Lucas County Radiological Emergency Response Plan,Section II Part E; and The Ohio Radiological Emergency Preparedness Plan and the Ohio Emergency Operations Plan.

7 .9 Assessment Facilities The systems and equipment described in the following sections ensure that the capability and resources are available to provide valid and continuing assessment throughout the course of an incident.

7.9.1 Radiation Monitoring System The onsite Radiation Monitoring System contributes to personnel radiological protection within the plant, in accordance with regulatory guidelines. The Radiation Monitoring System detects, alarms, and initiates emergency actions when radiation levels or radionuclide concentrations exceed predetermined levels. To perform these functions, area, liquid, and atmospheric monitoring subsystems are employed.

The data from these subsystems are displayed by readouts in the Control Room.

Additionally, certain monitors sound an alarm and are displayed on the Fire Detection System/Radiation Monitoring System (FDS/RMS) Console in the Control Room. A summary description of individual radiation monitor channels, described below, is provided in the Updated Safety Analysis Report (USAR) Table 11.4-1, Liquid Gas, and Airborne Radiation Monitors, and Table 12.1-3, Area Radiation Monitors.

In general the radiation monitoring equipment is designed in accordance with the following specifications:

a. Each monitoring station has adjustable, high level, low level, and power supply failure alarms.
b. Solid-state circuitry is used except for primary detectors.
c. The safety-related radiation monitors are powered from the essential instrument distribution panels. The non-essential radiation monitors are powered from the uninterruptible instrument distribution panels.
d. With the exception of the Kaman monitors, each radiation monitor is capable of being checked periodically with solenoid actuated check sources.

7-12 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision 32

e. A pulse generator or current source is used for electrically checking each monitor or subsystem. Electrical input tests measure the functional operation of the monitoring system from the detector output through the readout devices.
f. The modules are designed so that an alarm and/or indication is initiated when failure occurs anywhere in the channel.

7.9.2 Area Radiation Monitoring The Area Radiation Monitoring subsystem is comprised of area monitors located throughout the plant. Under normal operating conditions, the area monitors warn personnel of increasing radiation level, which may result in a radiation health hazard.

There are a total of 40 area monitors consisting of two types, Geiger-Mueller detectors and Ionization Chamber detectors. The detectors are housed in weather-proof containers and equipped with a remote controlled check source. The local alarm and readout for each of these channels is separate from the detector and is also housed in a weatherproof container.

These detectors can also monitor the high level of radiation that would be characteristic of the post-accident atmosphere in the containment. The detectors are desensitized by a lead shield.

The Control Room readout modules are located in the radiation monitoring panel in the Control Room.

I 7.9.3 Atmospheric Radiation Monitoring Atmospheric Radiation Monitoring measures radioactive material contained in the air.

The atmospheric radiation monitoring subsystem is comprised of monitors of the fixed and movable type. Each fixed atmospheric monitor is comprised of a particulate measuring channel, iodine measuring channel, and a gaseous measuring channel. The air sample that passes through each of these channels is obtained by means of a sampler and a pump assembly. Samples are obtained by means of a sampling head placed in a ventilation duct.

Portable atmospheric monitors are available for use during maintenance operations. These monitors are capable of monitoring particulate, iodines, and noble gases. The installed and portable atmospheric monitors provide both an audible alarm and visual indications when pre-determined setpoints are exceded for airborne radioactivity.

7.9.4 Process Radiation Monitoring Process radiation monitoring measures radiation given off radioactive material contained in process fluids within systems.

The process radiation monitoring subsystem consists of monitors each of which consists of a sampler, scintillation detector, and Control Room ratemeter module. The monitors readout in the Control Room on the individual ratemeter and two common recorders.

7-13 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision 32 7 .9 .5 Radiation Monitoring Instruments and Equipment Radiation Monitoring Instruments and Equipment includes those instruments and equipment which may be taken into the field (both on and offsite) to determine the presence of gaseous, particulate or airborne radioactive material. This includes general survey instruments. Portable radiation survey instruments and personnel dosimetry and equipment are shown in Table 7-1.

7.9.6 Fire Protection and Detection Devices Fire protection at Davis-Besse is provided by (1) the Fire Protection Water System, and (2) the Fire Detection System.

a. Fire Protection Water System The Fire Protection Water System is a full-loop, piped system that supplies water for (1) sprinklers, (2) deluge water spray, (3) fire hydrants, and (4) hose connections that are located such that they provide fire protection for all major areas of the plant and site.

A Fire Water Storage Tank provides a source of water via the Electric Driven Fire Pump. A jockey pump maintains system piping full and pressurized.

The Diesel Driven Fire Pump takes suction from the intake forebay. In the event that a fire occurs, and either an automatic or manual system is initiated, the Fire Protection Water System piping pressure will decrease and cause the electric (120 psig) and the diesel (100 psig) fire pumps to start at their respective pressure setpoint, to meet system flow requirements.

Sprinkler systems provide a coverage of 0.3 gpm per square foot of floor area, for any (including the most remote) 3,000 square foot area; and 0.2 gpm per square foot, for any 10,000 square foot of floor area under the turbine operating and intermediate floors, and in all areas to which oil may spread in the event of an oil line break. This protection is also provided below major steel grating floor whether or not sprinklers are installed above.

Fire hydrants are connected to the main fire yard loop around the periphery of the station. A distribution header loop is provided within the turbine building, with four branch feeders from the underground fire yard loop. Each section of the header loop and each branch line are provided with isolation valves. The headers supply readily accessible, mounted, frre hose stations located throughout the turbine and auxiliary buildings.

Hose cabinets are provided throughout the auxiliary building. Each hose cabinet contains 50-75 feet of 1Yi inch hose, with an adjustable fog nozzle, and a separate 2Yi-inch hose connection for local fire department use. Fire extinguishers are provided throughout the building.

7-14 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision 32 Hose reel units are provided in the turbine building. Each reel is provided with 50-75 feet of 1Yi inch fire hose, and an adjustable fog and stream hose nozzle.

Adjacent to each hose reel is a separate 2Yz-inch hose connection for local fire department use. Portable fire extinguishers are located throughout the building.

Fire suppression to the Administration Building, Warehouse, Training Center, Primary Access Facility, and Service Building #3 consists of sprinkler systems and hose stations.

b. Fire Detection System The fire detection system is comprised of detectors located throughout Davis-Besse, especially in those areas not protected by sprinkler systems.
1. Temperature Rise Detectors Temperature rise detectors monitor the protected area and will send a signal to a local control cabinet and Control Room alarm if the rise in temperature reaches a setpoint.
2. Smoke and Vapor Detectors Ionization type smoke detectors monitor the area, and when activated, send a signal to a local control cabinet and Control Room alarm.

The Fire Detection Panels receive their inputs from the various detectors, and in tum send an alarm to the Control Room.

An alarm initiates when any of the following conditions occur within the Fire Detection System:

a) Fire b) Trouble c) Ground Fault If any of the above occur, a line printer, fed by the Fire Detection System/Radiation Monitoring System (FDS/RMS), will print out the alarm in the Control Room.

Upon receipt of an alarm, the Control Room operator acknowledges the alarm on the FDS/RMS console printer, and identifies the specific cause of the alarm.

7.9.7 Seismic Monitoring System The Seismic Monitoring System records (on local recorders for each accelerometer and in a personal computer within the central system in the control room) vibrations in the earth due to a local earthquake. In addition, the system will record the vibrations on man-made structures caused by the earthquake. The data acquired will contribute. to the assessment of damage and the determination of cause of damage. The data is useful in confirming the

7-15 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision 32 design and analysis of the structure. To aid decision making, alarm lights are provided at the system rack, in the cabinet area of the Control Room. These lights show the exceedance of Operating Basis Earthquake (OBE) or Safe Shutdown Earthquake (SSE) at the containment foundation.

The sensors and seismic triggers are installed remotely from the system rack, are networked together, and are connected by cables to the rack. (See the Technical Requirements Manual (TRM) for location of the sensors and triggers.)

The four low-level triaxial seismic triggers are networked together, so that any one accelerometer can also trigger the other devices, to tum on the system automatically during the buildup of the event vibrations. The one required seismic trigger (free-field) is set at approximately 0.01 Og (g=acceleration due to gravity). The recording system includes pre-event (i.e., pre-trigger) data in the event record. Recording continues without interruption for approximately 30 seconds after the last low-level trigger signal. Upon completion of the seismic event recording, data is retrievable from each accelerometer (through an analog-to-digital recorder and data storage memory) and a personal computer in the Control Room, which will provide time history response data and can be readily reviewed without need for conversion to hardcopy. A video display will provide quick, accurate determinations to be made based on the seismic event, and to determine if a plant shutdown is required.

In keeping with the purposes of the system, loss of site power will not prevent system operation. Backup power is supplied from the Station Battery, and also an internal battery in the network control center and each recorder.

In addition to the components associated with the system rack, there are three peak recording accelerometers as listed in the TRM, Table 8.3.3-1, which require no electrical power to operate. After a seismic event operators can remove the three tape strips from each recorder, develop the strips, and determine the peak values recorded at the associated location.

7 .9 .8 Onsite Meteorological Measurement Programs Data collection from the current onsite meteorological monitoring system began at DBNPS on August 4, 1974. The location of both meteorological towers is such that the meteorological data from the towers are representative of the DBNPS site. The system includes two levels of instrumentation on a 340-foot freestanding tower and one level of instrumentation on a 35-foot satellite tower. Both towers are located in the southwest comer of the site approximately 2800 feet from DBNPS.

Wind direction and speed are measured at the 250 and 340-foot levels on the freestanding tower and at 35 feet on the satellite tower. Differential temperature measurements (~T) are made between 35 and 250 feet and between 35 and 340 feet on the free standing tower.

The Control Room, Emergency Operations Facility (EOF), and Technical Support Center (TSC) can obtain meteorological data through the Data Acquisition and Display System (DADS). All meteorological data are recorded on strip chart recorders. Dual-channel strip chart recorders are used for recording wind speed and direction; one recorder for each

7-16 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision 32 tower level. Ambient temperature, dewpoint, delta T, and precipitation are recorded on one multipoint strip chart recorder; each parameter is recorded on an individual channel.

The data recording and signal conditioning equipment is housed in an environmentally controlled out structure located near the base of the tower.

The meteorological instruments at DBNPS are calibrated at least semiannually. The instrumentation and records are checked on a nominal daily basis for proper functioning of equipment. All maintenance and calibrations are performed in accordance with written procedures.

Backup meteorological data (i.e., wind speed and direction) are available from the National Weather Service. Arrangements have also been made to obtain complete backup meteorological information from the Enrico Fermi Nuclear Power Station at Newport, Michigan. Backup hydrological data can be obtained from the Marblehead Coast Guard Station, and the Port Clinton Sewage treatment plant (lake level and precipitation respectively).

7.9.9 Control Room Instrumentation Control Room Instrumentation measures appropriate parameters that are indicative of the status of various plant systems and the reactor itself.

The Post Accident Monitoring System (P AMS) is also available to follow the course of an accident with wide range instrumentation. This system will provide to the plant operators, the essential safety status information necessary to allow them to return the plant to a maintained, safe, shutdown condition.

USAR Table 7.5-1 provides a listing and a description of Control Room instrumentation, including P AMS that would be used in performing continued assessment of plant conditions.

7.9.10 Laboratory Facilities The Davis-Besse laboratory facilities are equipped to provide the water chemistry and radiochemical analysis support required during normal plant operations. This equipment can also be utilized in the analysis of abnormal events to assist in the diagnosis of plant operation when conditions permit.

If an accident occurs which would make normal sampling and counting methods impractical, the following measures can be taken:

a. A Radiological Testing Laboratory (RTL) is located in the DBAB in the restricted area near the TSC. Its primary functions are to act as a staging area for Radiation Monitoring Teams and provide a handling area for environmental samples.
b. *For reactor coolant system sampling, a shielded, high-pressure sampler is available for pressurized samples. These samples are obtained using the Post Accident Sampling System (PASS) which was designed specifically for this purpose.

7-17 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision 32

c. For containment atmosphere sampling, the normal sampling procedure is used. If any channel of the RE 4597 series monitor is off scale or an independent sample and analysis is required, a grab sample can be obtained from the Emergency Grab Sample System.
d. For station vent sampling, procedure guidance exists for sampling using either the normal or accident range station vent monitors. Provisions are included to replace and quantify radioactive particulate and iodine sampling media. Also if RE 4598 series Channel 1, 2 or 3 is off scale, a portable survey instrument on the sample line can be used and dose rate is then converted to µCi/cc.

7.9.11 Facilities and Equipment for Offsite Monitoring A complete Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program (REMP) for effluent control has been established at the DBNPS. The program has been in effect since August 1972.

The REMP employs fixed radiation/radionuclide detection and measurement instruments at various locations within a 25 mile radius from DBNPS. Samples of vegetation, water, soil, milk, and produce are routinely collected and analyzed. The REMP is conducted under the guidance contained in the Davis-Besse Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM).

During emergencies at DBNPS, baseline data from the REMP will be used in assessing the radiological effects of any possible releases on the environment.

DBNPS has three, four-wheel drive vehicles, equipped to perform field monitoring during emergencies. These vehicles are available within about 30 minutes after declaration of an emergency. Radiation Monitoring Teams (RMTs), dispatched at an ALERT or higher, will conduct emergency field monitoring of radiation and airborne activity levels throughout the EPZ, under direction from the Dose Assessment Center, in the EOF. Monitoring results will be used to verify plume boundaries and to adjust dose projections for more correct protective action recommendations.

7 .10 Protective Facilities and Equipment Personnel protective action at DBNPS is a function of the nature of the hazards, for instance, preparing for a hurricane is somewhat different from preparing for radiological hazards.

Preplanned responses to the basic hazards, such as high winds, flooding, earthquakes, and radiation exposures are an integral part of the DBNPS Emergency Plan and are therefore discussed separately. A fundamental concept in personnel protection is the immediate release and removal of all individuals not essential to the operation, safety, security, and damage control of the plant.

Obviously some hazards can occur before any protective action can be taken. When the situation permits, the appropriate alarms are sounded and all personnel on site either assume their assigned emergency responsibilities, or are assembled at the designated points for accountability prior to release from the site or reassignment to an emergency team.

Protected facilities include the DBNPS Control Room and the emergency facilities on the first floor of the Administration Building. These areas are located in seismically rated structures and have adequate shielding to permit safe occupation for extended periods of time without exceeding a dose limit. The ventilation systems in these facilities have redundant fans and chillers and are provided

7-18 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision 32 with appropriate alarms and interlocks. Provisions have also been made for the air to be recirculated through high efficiency particulate (HEPA), and activated charcoal filters when necessary.

Self contained breathing apparatus (SCBAs) are located in the Control Room to permit continued occupancy if ventilation systems fail. Air-purifying respirators are available in the Radiologically Controlled Area and would be provided to Control Room personnel as needed. Additional SCBAs, protective clothing, and respirators are available at, or near, each onsite ERF, and are listed in applicable Radiation Protection Procedures and Emergency Plan Procedures.

Parts for the respirators and SCBAs, as well as additional protective clothing are available through the FENOC Supply Chain.

7 .11 First Aid and Medical Facilities First aid facilities at DBNPS are designed to support immediate care ranging from simple first aid to procedures requiring a physician. The most readily available first aid is provided by the small kits placed throughout the plant. These kits contain items typically needed to care for minor injuries.

More complete medical cabinets are located throughout the site and contain medical supplies needed to care for more serious injuries.

7 .12 Damage Control Equipment The DBNPS is extensively equipped to conduct preventive and mitigative maintenance and repairs on mechanical, structural, electrical and instrumentation and control equip;nent found in the station.

Each maintenance crew is qualified and, when required, certified to perform the tasks associated with their craft in the working environment of a nuclear plant.

In addition to the equipment and materials required for normal maintenance, other items are available to handle extraordinary maintenance jobs that might arise in damage control. Refer to the appropriate system procedure or Emergency Plan Procedure for equipment lists.

Revision 32 I

f. A coordinated program shall be conducted annually to acquaint the news media with the Emergency Plan, information concerning radiation, and points of contact for release of public information in an emergency. Normally, this information will be presented through a mailing, which may include an invitation for a site/plant tour.

8 .1.2 Drills and Exercises

a. Periodic drills and exercises will be conducted in order to test the overall state of emergency preparedness. The prime objective of this form of training is to determine the level of emergency preparedness of all participating personnel, organizations, and agencies. More specifically, each drill or exercise will be conducted to meet the following objectives:
1. Ensure that the participants are familiar with their duties and responsibilities.
2. Verify the adequacy of the DBNPS Emergency Plan and Emergency Plan Procedures.
3. Test communications networks and systems.
4. Check the availability of emergency supplies and equipment.
5. Verify the operability of emergency equipment.

The Emergency Response Manager is responsible for the planning, scheduling, and coordination of all emergency preparedness related drills and exercises.

All drills and exercises are subject to the approval of the General Plant Manager.

In addition, the Site Vice President, DB Nuclear will approve the Biennial Exercise.

Each drill requirement will be performed within the specified time interval, with a maximum allowable extension not to exceed 25% of the drill interval. An exercise will be conducted once every other calendar year to demonstrate the overall effectiveness of the Davis-Besse Emergency Response Program. The scope and content of the biennial exercise will be consistent with established departmental procedures and regulatory requirements.

Instrqctions and coaching may be given to participants during a_ drill. Such actions are prohibited during a biennial exercise. Therefore, in !-:>rder to take credit for specific drill objectives during an exercise, no instructions or coaching may occur.

8-4 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision 32

b. When a major drill or exercise is to be conducted, the Emergency Response Manager will:
1. Assign personnel to prepare a scenario.
2. Coordinate efforts with other participating emergency personnel, organizations, and agencies.
3. Obtain the approval of the General Plant Manager (DB), and the Site Vice President-DB Nuclear (for the Biennial Exercise).
4. Schedule a date for drill execution and assign controllers.
5. Critique the results of the drill.
6. Assign personnel to correct any deficiencies.
7. Ensure that deficiencies are corrected.
8. Prepare and submit documentation to the Nuclear Records Management for record keeping of training conducted.

Scheduled drills and exercises will involve onsite as well as offsite emergency personnel, organizations, and agencies. These drills and exercises will be conducted simulating, as closely as possible, actual emergency conditions; and may be scheduled such that one or more drills or exercises are held simultaneously. Drill scenarios will be prepared that involve the participation of several emergency teams and all or specific parts of the onsite and offsite emergency organizations. This may include varying degrees of participation of state, county, and federal organizations and agencies, and local service support personnel and organizations. The Emergency Response Manager will notify the offsite emergency response organizations and agencies at least thirty days in advance of the scheduled date of the drill or exercise. Collection and analysis of all sample media (e.g., water, vegetation, soil and air) should be included in the drills. Drills will involve on-the-spot correction of erroneous performance, and a demonstration of the proper performance by the controller, if necessary.

During the conduct of exercises, the controllers are restricted in their ability to correct erroneous performance, and may only intercede to assure safety of personnel, or prevent damage to equipment.

Recommendations for revisions to the DBNPS Emergency Plan, Emergency Plan Procedures, and/or the upgrading of emergency equipment and supplies, as a result of a drill or exercise, are forwarded to the Emergency Response Manager by observers or participants. The Emergency Response Manager will submit such procedure revisions for review in accordance with Emergency Plan Administrative Procedure. Approved changes will be incorporated into the Emergency Response Program under the direction of the Emergency Response Manager.

It is intended that this plan, although considered as part of the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station (DBNPS), Unit 1, Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR), will be maintained as a separate document. This is more clearly defined in the Updated Safety Analysis Report (USAR), Section 13.3.

8.3 .1 The DBNPS Emergency Plan, including appended letters of agreement and plans of offsite organizations and agencies will be reviewed annually and updated as required by the Emergency Response Section, under the direction of the Emergency Response Manager.

8.3.2 The DBNPS Emergency Plan will be reviewed annually by an independent group with no immediate responsibility for the emergency response program. This group is the FENOC Oversight organization. Results and recommendations from the review will be documented and sent to appropriate corporate and plant management, including the Company Nuclear Review Board (CNRB). The CNRB is responsible for auditing the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Emergency Plan to verify compliance at least once every two years. The CNRB performs this function by reviewing the audits which are performed by the FENOC Oversight organization. The report on the adequacy of the interfaces between the DBNPS Emergency Plan and the state and local governments will be sent to the respective government agencies by the Emergency Response Section, and retained on file for at least five years.

Davis-Besse Oversight is responsible for auditing the DBNPS Emergency Plan at least annually to verify compliance with the company's internal rules and procedures,,federal regulations, and operating license provisions. Personnel performing audits of the DBNPS Emergency Plan and/or Emergency Plan Procedures will take into account

Davis-Besse Oversight is responsible for auditing the fire protection program at least once per 24 months per the FENOC Quality Assurance Program Manual.

Results of each annual and biennial review and update (if needed) of the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Emergency Plan and Emergency Plan procedures will be reported to the Site Vice President - DB Nuclear.

8.3.3 The Emergency Response Manager will provide an ongoing review of the Emergency Plan and Procedures.

a. The DBNPS Emergency Plan Procedures will be incorporated into the DBNPS procedures program. As such, procedures will be prepared, reviewed, approved, controlled, distributed, and revised in accordance with DBNPS administrative procedures. Document holders (e.g., DBNPS, state, county, and federal agencies, etc.,) will receive revisions to the Emergency Plan Procedures in a controlled manner, as they are issued. In addition, these Emergency Plan Procedures will provide guidance to document holders on how to make comments and recommendations concerning the Emergency Response Program to DBNPS. Revisions to the DBNPS Emergency Plan will be similarly controlled.
b. The Emergency Response Manager is responsible for coordinating the periodic review and audit of the DBNPS Emergency Plan and Emergency Plan Procedures. In addition, the Emergency Response Manager will, through letters, meetings, seminars, or other means available; ensure that appropriate elements of the emergency organization are informed of the DBNPS Emergency Plan and amendments thereto, and the Emergency Plan Procedures and revisions thereto.

8.4 Maintenance and Inventory of Emergency Equipment and Supplies The Emergency Response Manflger is responsible for planning and scheduling the quarterly inventory and inspection of designated emergency supplies and equipment.

9-1 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision 32 9.0 REENTRY AND RECOVERY 9.1 Reentry During an emergency, immediate actions are directed toward limiting the consequences of the accident, so as to afford maximum protection to Station personnel and the general public. Once mitigative measures have been taken and effective control reestablished, the response efforts shift towards reentry and recovery. Reentry is made to perform certain essential actions which could not be performed coincident with the immediate response to the emergency.

Offsite Reentry is the responsibility of state and local authorities. It typically consists of environmental monitoring and assessment of the actions required to support return of the public to evacuated areas and residences. Additional details regarding plans and procedures for offsite reentry are found in The Ohio Radiological Emergency Preparedness Plan and the Ohio Emergency Operations Plan . DBNPS will provide support and assistance to offsite agencies as requested to facilitate these efforts.

Onsite reentry is made when the emergency situation is under control and more deliberate planning can be made for the activities to be performed. These activities may occur prior to termination of the emergency, or they may be conducted as part of the Recovery phase of the response. All reentry actions conducted prior to the termination of the emergency will be authorized by the Emergency Plant Manager, and coordinated by the Operations Support Center (OSC) Manager and the Emergency Radiation Protection (RP) Manager. Reentry conducted during Recovery will be authorized by the Plant Recovery Manager. When preplanning these initial onsite reentries, the following items will typically be considered:

9 .1.1 Review available radiation surveillance data to determine plant areas potentially affected by radiation and/or contamination.

9 .1.2 Review radiation dose histories of personnel required to participate in the recovery operations.

9 .1.3 Determine the need for additional personnel and the source of these additional personnel.

9.1.4 Review adequacy of radiation survey instrumentation and equipment (i.e., types, ranges, number, calibration).

9 .1.5 Pre-plan survey team activities to include:

a. Areas to be surveyed
b. Anticipated radiation and contamination levels
c. Radiation survey equipment required
d. Shielding requirements and availability
e. Protective clothing and equipment required
f. Access control procedures (issuance of new RWPs) including exposure control limits and personnel dosimetry required
g. Decontamination requirement
h. Communications requirements

9-2 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision 32 9 .1.6 Review and revise security access lists to prevent unauthorized or unintentional entry into hazardous areas. -

9 .1. 7 Reentry teams should be tasked with as many of the following as possible:

a. Determination of the initial required recovery operations.
b. Observation of hazards or potential hazards associated with the recovery operations.
c. Conducting comprehensive surveillance of plant facilities.
d. Isolating and posting of areas in the plant with appropriate warning signs and rope barriers, such as Radiation Areas, High Radiation Areas, High Airborne Activity Areas, and Contaminated Areas, etc.
e. Assessing the conditions of station equipment and areas.

In the period immediately following an accident, initial radiation monitoring functions involve only gross hazard evaluations, isolation of the hazard, and the definition of radiological problem areas. This immediate radiation surveillance activity is used to provide the basic information for recovery operations.

9 .2 Recovery The Emergency Director and Emergency Plant Manager have the joint responsibility for determining when an emergency situation is stable and the Station is ready to enter the recovery phase. The Recovery Organization will develop and coordinate plans and schedules for recovery operations. Following a SITE AREA or GENERAL EMERGENCY, the Company Nuclear Review Board (CNRB) will participate in the recovery planning effort to assure that all nuclear safety aspects of the recovery are satisfied. The CNRB will report their findings to the Recovery Director, who shall take the actions that he deems appropriate for safe recovery operations.

The Emergency Plant Manager, under the direction of the Emergency Director, will be responsible at the site for coordinating onsite recovery activities and the return to normal operations.

At the time that an emergency has been terminated, and Recovery has been initiated, the Emergency Offsite Manager will be responsible for providing notification to all applicable agencies (federal, state, county, etc.).

9.2.1 Prior to terminating an emergency and entering the Recovery phase, the Emergency Director will coordinate with the Emergency Plant Manager and the Emergency Offsite Manager to ensure that the following criteria have been considered:

a. The conditions which caused the emergency have stabilized, are under control, and are unlikely to deteriorate further.
b. The plume is beyond the ten-mile Emergency Planning Zone, and/or plume tracking is no longer required. The only environmental assessment activities in progress may be those necessary to assess the extent of deposition resulting from passage of the plume.

9-3 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision 32

c. In-plant radiation levels are acceptable, and are stable or decreasing.
d. Radioactive releases are under control and are no longer in excess of technical specification limits.
e. The potential for uncontrolled radioactive rele&ses is acceptably low.
f. Containment pressure is within technical specifications.
g. The reactor is in a stable safe shutdown condition and long-term core cooling is available as required.
h. Any fire, flood, earthquake or similar emergency condition no longer exist.
i. All contaminated injured, personnel have been transported to a medical care facility.

J. All required notifications have be~n made.

k. Offsite conditions will not limit access of personnel and support resources toDBNPS.
1. Discussions have been held with all offsite and select regulatory agencies, and agreement has been reached to terminate the emergency.

9 .2.2 The extent of recovery activities will dictate the precise framework of the Recovery Organization:

a. For events of a minor nature, the normal onshift organization should be adequate to perform necessary recovery actions (e.g., for UNUSUAL EVENT classifications).
b. For events involving significant damage to plant systems required to maintain operation of the plant, the onsite emergency organization, or portions thereof, should be adequate to coordinate the necessary recovery actions (e.g., for ALERT classifications).
c. For events involving damage to plant systems required to maintain safe shutdown of the reactor, a formal Recovery Organization will be established to manage the recovery actions (e.g., for SITE AREA or GENERAL EMERGENCY classifications).

Particular attention should be directed toward isolating components and systems as required to control or minimize the hazards. A systematic investigation will be conducted to determine the extent of any equipment damage. Recovery operations are considered to be terminated when the plant has returned to pre-accident levels of radiation and contamination or to conditions, which are acceptable and controllable for an extended period of time.

9-4 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision 32 Recovery operations that may result in the release of radioactive materials shall be evaluated by the Recovery Director. Such events and data pertaining to the release will be reported to the appropriate offsite emergency organizations and agencies.

In the final phase of the recovery operations, a restoration program will begin. The

  • overall purpose of the restoration program is to prepare for resumption of full-power operations. This program will include a detailed incident analysis.

Determinations will be made as to the repair work required to perform needed modifications to plant equipment and/or operating procedures. Repair work and approved modifications will be carried out as authorized. Test programs to confirm fitness and acceptability to return to service will be developed and executed.

Since no emergency is considered to exist during this time period, normal limits of radiation dose will be applied during the restoration. Compliance with the limits are the responsibility of the Recovery Director.

A recovery plan, must be flexible enough to adapt to existing, rather than theoretical, conditions. It is not possible to anticipate in advance all of the conditions that may be encountered in an emergency situation. Therefore, the DBNPS plan addresses some general principles that will serve as a guide for developing a flexible plan of action.

Specific members of the Recovery Organization will be selected based upon the sequence of events that preceded the recovery activities.

9.2.3 The following is a basic framework for the formation of a formal Recovery Organization. The reporting chain for the organization is outlined in Figure 9-1.

This organization may be modified as necessary for any particular incident.

a. Recovery Director The Recovery Director is responsible for directing the activities of the Recovery Organization, including the following:
1. Ensure that sufficient personnel from DBNPS and other organizations are available to support recovery.
2. Direct the development of a recovery plan and implementing procedures, as required.

2) Changed "Memorial Hospital" to "ProMedica Memorial Hospital" in Table 2-1, steps 6.5.3 and 6.5.5, and in Appendix C.
3) Deleted the following definitions in section 1.0 as prescribed by the NEI 99-01 Revision 6 Emergency Action Levels:

AFFECTING SAFE SHUTDOWN - Event in progress has adversely affected functions that are necessary to bring the plant to and maintain it in the applicable Hot or Cold Shutdown condition. Plant condition applicability is determined by Technical Specification LCOs in effect.

'1.1 Describe the change ensuring before and after text is provided for comparison (see NOP-LP-5002, Section 4.3.2).

Alteration 17 changed section 7.6.1.g from "A Computerized Automated Notification System (CANS) is available to facilitate the notification process. The system is composed of a minimum of 26 phone lines. One telephone line is dedicated for system activation by the Control Room or Security, and the others are connected to the telephone network. The CANS is capable of group paging, individual paging, and individually calling all emergency response personnel carrying pagers, as well as calling out non-pager carrying responders. The system communicates the emergency classification and logs personnel response times" to "A Computerized Automate~ Notification Systein (CANS) is available to facilitate the notification process. The system is composed of a minimum of 26 phone lines. One telephone line is dedicated for system activation by the Control Room or Security, and the others are connected to the telephone network. The CANS is capable of sending notification messages to all ERO mobile devices and individually calling all emergency response personnel.

The system communicates the emergency classification and logs personnel response times." This change clarifies devices other than pagers are utilized for ERO notification. This change in terminology supports the initiative to eliminate the use of pagers as. they become obsolete and unreliable. The term "ERO mobile device" would include any mobile communication device to be used for callout of the Emergency Response Organization.

Alteration 18 changed the term in step 7.6.2.a.1 "4-way ring down circuit" to "4-Way Phone". The change to the 4-Way Phone system was evaluated under 10CFR50.54(q) DB-2015-023-00.

Alteration 19 changed step 7.9.7, Seismic Monitoring System from: "The Seismic Monitoring System records (on magnetic tape) vibrations in the earth due to a local earthquake. In addition, the system will record the vibrations on man-made structures caused by the earthquake. The data acquired will contribute to the assessment of damage ~nd the determination of cause of damage. The data is useful in confirming the design and analysis of the structure. To aid decision making, six alarm lights are provided at the system rack, in the cabinet area of the Control Room. These lights show the exceedance of Operating Basis Earthquake (OBE) or Safe Shutdown Earthquake (SSE) at the containment foundation. The sensors and seismic triggers are installed remotely from the system rack, and are connected by cables to the rack. (See the Technical Requirements Manual (TRM) for location of the sensors and trigger.) One lowm level triaxial seismic trigger is used to turn on the system automatically during the buildup of the event vibrations. The seismic trigger is adjustable from approximately 0.005g to 0.02g (g=acceleration due to gravity). The recording system is in full operation within 0.1 second after a low-level trigger signal.

Recording continues with out interruption for approximately 10 seconds after the last low-level trigger signal. Upon completion of the seismic event recording, the Control Room operator removes the magnetic tape cassette from the

10 CFR 50.54(q) Evaluation NOP-LP-5002-02 Rev. 06 Page4of 13 Number 082017-012-00 Plant I Year I Number I Revision recording machine. The recording cassette tape is placed in a playback unit which converts to strip-chart form, the longitudinal, transverse, and vertical axes of vibration. The time domain tape recording can be transferred to other available data analysis or acquisition equipment for more detailed analysis. In keeping with the purposes of the system, the power is supplied by rechargeable batteries so that loss of site power will not prevent system operation.

Continuous float charging of the batteries is provided by a battery charger module. In addition to the components associated with the system rack, there are three peak recording accelerometers as listed in the TRM, Table 8.3.3-1, which require no electrical power to operate. After a seismic event operators can remove the three tape strips from each recorder, develop the strips, and determine the peak values recorded at the associated location."

To: "The Seismic Monitoring System records (on local recorders for each accelerometer and in a personal computer within the central system in the control room) vibrations in the earth due to a local earthquake. In addition, the system will record the vibrations on man-made structures caused by the earthquake. The data acquired will contribute to the assessment of damage and the determination of cause of damage. The data is useful in confirming the design and analysis of the structure. To aid decision making, alarm lights are provided at the system rack, in the cabinet area of the Control Room. These lights show the exceedance of Operating Basis Earthquake (OBE) or Safe Shutdown Earthquake (SSE) at the containment foundation. The sensors and seismic triggers are installed remotely from the system rack, are networked together, and are connected by cables to the rack. (See the Technical Requirements Manual (TRM) for location of the sensors and triggers.) The four low-level triaxial seismic triggers are networked .together, so that any one accelerometer can also trigger the other devices, to turn on the system automatically during the buildup of the event vibrations. The one required seismic trigger (free-field) is set at approximately 0.01 Og (g=acceleration due to gravity). The recording system.Includes pre-evenf(l.e., pre-trigger) data In the event record. Recording continues without interruption for approximately 30 seconds after the last low-level trigger signal. Upon completion of the seismic event recording, data is retrievable from each accelerometer (through an analog*

to-digital recorder and data storage memory) and a personal computer in the Control Room, which will provide time history response data and can be readily reviewed without need for conversion to hardcopy. A video display will provide quick, accurate determinations to be made based on the seismic event, and to determine if a plant shutdown is required. In keeping with the purposes of the system, loss of site power will not prevent system operation. Backup power is supplied from the Station Battery, and also an internal battery in the network control center and each recorder. In addition to the components associated with the system rack, there are three peak recording accelerometers as listed in the TRM, Table 8.3.3-1, which require no electrical power to operate. After a seismic event operators can remove the three tape strips from each recorder, develop the strips, and determine the peak values recorded at the associated location."

The changes described to DBNPS Emergency Plan (Rev. 32) are associated with the following emergency planning functions:

10CFR50.47(b): (5). Emergency Notifications Procedures have been established for notification, by the licensee, of State and local response organizations and for notification of emergency personnel by all organizations; the content of initial and followup messages to response organizations and the public has been established; and means to provide early notification and clear instruction to the populace within the plume exposure pathway Emergency Planning Zone have been established.

10CFR50 Appendix E: (D). Notification Procedures

10 CFR 50.54(q) Evaluation NOP-LP-5002-02 Rev. 06 Page 7of13 Number 082017-012-00 Plant I Year I Number I Revision

1. Administrative and physical means for notifying local, State, and Federal officials and agencies and agreements reached with these officials and agencies for the prompt notification of the public and for public evacuation or other protective measures, should they become necessary, shall be described. This description shall include identification of the appropriate officials, by title and agency, of the State and local government agencies within the EPZs.
2. Provisions shall be described for yearly dissemination to the public within the plume exposure pathway EPZ of basic emergency planning information, such as the methods and times required for public notification and the protective actions planned if an accident occurs, general information as to the nature and effects of radiation, and a listing of local broadcast stations that will be used for dissemination of information during an emergency. Signs or other measures shall also be used to disseminate to any transient population within the plume exposure pathway EPZ appropriate information that would be helpful if an accident occurs.
3. A licensee shall have the capability to notify responsible State and local governmental agencies within 15 minutes after declaring an emergency. The licensee shall demonstrate that the appropriate governmental authorities have the capability to make a public alerting and notification .decision promptly on being informed by the licensee of an emergency condition. Prior to initial operation greater than 5 percent of rated thermal power of the first reactor at a *!

site, each nuclear power reactor licensee shall demonstrate that administrative and physical means have been established for alerting and providing prompt instructions to the public within the plume exposure pathway EPZ. The design objective of the prompt public alert and notification system shall be to have the capability to essentially complete the initial alerting and initiate notification of the public within the plume exposure pathway EPZ within about 15 minutes. The use of this alerting and notification capability will range from immediate alerting and notification of the public (within 15 minutes of the time that State and local officials are notified that a situation exists requiring urgent action) to the more likely events where there is substantial time available for the appropriate governmental authorities to make a judgment whether or not to activate the public alert and notification system. The alerting and notification capability shall additionally include administrative and physical means for a backup method of public alerting and notification capable of being used in the event the primary method of alerting and notification is unavailable during an emergency to alert or notify all or portions of the plume exposure pathway EPZ population. The backup method shall have the capability to alert and notify the public within the plume exposure pathway EPZ, but does not need to meet the 15-minute design objective for the primary prompt public alert and notification system. When there is a decision to activate the alert and notification system, the appropriate governmental authorities will determine whether to activate the entire alert and notification system simultaneously or in a graduated or staged manner. The responsibility for activating such a public alert and notification system shall remain with the appropriate governmental authorities.

10 CFR 50.54(q) Evaluation NOP-LP-5002-02 Rev. 06 Page Bof 13 Number 082017-012-00 Plant I Year I Number I Revision

4. If FEMA has approved a nuclear power reactor site's alert and notification design report, including the backup alert and notification capability, as of December 23, 2011, then the backup alert and notification capability requirements in Section IV.D.3 must be implemented by December 24, 2012. If the alert and notification design report does not include a backup alert and notification capability or needs revision to ensure adequate backup alert and notification capability, then a revision of the alert and notification design report must be _submitted to FEMA for review by June 24, 2013, and the FEMA-approved backup alert and notification means must be implemented within 365 days after FEMA approval. However, the total time period to implement a FEMA-approved backup alert and notification means must not exceed June 22, 2015.

10CFR50 Appendix E: (C). Activation of Emergency Organization

1. The entire spectrum of emergency conditions that involve the alerting or activating of progressively larger segments of the total emergency organization shall be described. The communication steps to be taken to alert or activate emergency personnel under each class of emergency shall be described.

Emergency action levels (based not only on onsite and offsite radiation monitoring information but also on readings from a number of sensors that indicate a potential emergency, such as the pressure in containment and the response of the Emergency Core Cooling System) for notification of offsite agencies shall be described. The existence, but not the details, of a message authentication scheme shall be noted for such agencies. The emergency classes defined shall include: (1) Notification of unusual events, (2) alert, (3) site area emergency, and (4) general emergency. These classes are further discussed in NUREG--0654/FEMA-REP-1.

2. By June 20, 2012, nuclear power reactor licensees shall establish and maintain the capability to assess, classify, *and declare an emergency condition within 15 minutes after the availability of indications to plant operators that an emergency action level has been exceeded and shall promptly declare the emergency condition as soon as possible following identification of the appropriate emergency classification level. Licensees shall not construe these criteria as a grace period to attempt to restore plant conditions to avoid declaring an emergency action due to an emergency action level that has been exceeded.

Licensees shall not construe these criteria as preventing implementation of response actions deemed by the licensee to be necessary to protect public health and safety provided that any delay in declaration does not deny the State and local authorities the opportunity to implement measures necessary to protect the public health and safety.

10 CFR 50.47(b) (6) - Emergency Communications The regulation at 10 CFR 50.47(b)(6) states the following:

"Provisions exist for prompt communications among principal response organizations to emergency personnel and to the public."

10 CFR 50, Appendix E, Section IV.E.

10 CFR 50.54(q) Evaluation NOP-LP-5002-02 Rev. 06 Page9of 13 Number DB2017-012-00 Plant I Year I Number I Revision Emergency Facilities and Equipment The regulation at 10 CFR 50Appendix E,Section IV.E states the following:

"9. At least one onsite and one offsite communications system; each system shall have a backup power source. All communication plans shall have arrangements for emergencies, including titles and alternates for those in charge at both ends of the communication links and the primary and backup means of communication. Where consistent with the function of the governmental agency, these arrangements will include:

a. Provision for communications with contiguous State/local governments within the plume exposure pathway EPZ. Such communications shall be tested monthly.
b. Provision for oommunications with Federal emergency response organizations. Such communications systems shall be tested annually.
c. Provision for communications among the nuclear power reactor control room, the onsite technical support center, and the emergency operations facility; and among the nuclear facility, the principal State and local emergency operations centers, and the field assessment teams. Such communications systems shall be tested annually.
d. Provisions for communications by the licensee with NRC Headquarters and the appropriate NRC Regional Office Operations Center from the nuclear power reactor control room, the onsite technical support center, and the emergency operations facility. Such communications shall be tested monthly."

10CFR50.47(b) "(8) Emergency Facilities and Equipment Adequate emergency facilities and equipment to support the emergency response are provided and maintained."

10 CFR 50, Appendix E, Section IV.B. Assessment Actions "1. The means to be used for determining the magnitude of, and for continually assessing the impact of, the release of radioactive materials shall be described, including emergency action levels that are to be u*sed as criteria for determining the need for notification and participation of local and State agencies, the Commission, and other Federal agencies, and the emergency action levels that are to be used for determining when and what type of protective measures should be considered within and outside the site boundary to protect health and

  • safety. The emergency action levels shall be based on in-plant conditions and instrumentation in addition to onsite and offsite monitoring. By June 20, 2012, for nuclear power reactor licensees, these action levels must include hostile action that may adversely affect the nuclear power plant. The initial emergency action levels shall be discussed and agreed ori by the applicant or licensee and state and local governmental authorities, and approved by the NRC. Thereafter,

10 CFR 50.54(q) Evaluation NOP-LP-5002-02 Rev. 06 Page 10of13 Number 082017-012-00 Plant I Year I Number I Revision emergency action levels shall be reviewed with the State and local governmental authorities on an annual basis."

1.8 Determine and document if the proposed change complies with regulations.

The change utilizing the term "ERO mobile device" does not change the methodology of notifying the ERO. This change is being made to support the elimination of pagers and transition to cell phones which is newer technology and more reliable. This change will not impact the function of notification of the ERO and therefore it will continue to meet its designed functio.n to ensure compliance with its associated regulations.

  • The changes to the 4-Way phone system will not impact the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station's ability to meet the identified planning standards. The new conference bridge will still provide the function for prompt communications (within 15 minutes) to the State and local response organizations for notification of a declared emergency event. The new conference bridge is designed to be more reliable than the existing, aging system and will ensure continued compliance with the associated planning standards. The backup means to make prompt communications to the State and local response organizations for notification of a declared emergency event is not affected by this change and remains available. This change to the 4-Way phone system will continue to meet its designed function to ensure compliance with its associated regulations.

The change to the Seismic Monitoring System was evaluated under 10CFR50.54(q) DB-2016-006-01 and it was determined that the change to the Seismic Monitoring system will not change any Emergency Action Levels, nor any Initiating Conditions for entry into any EAL. There will be no changes to the Emergency Action Levels based on the change to the Seismic Monitoring System.

The Initiating Conditions for the Emergency Action Level will not change, in that the setpoints used for the OBE and SSE will remain the same. The new system will maintain the same triggers as the previous system. The indications of the earthquake, both at the Seismic panel and at the Control Room annunciator panel, will remain the same. The Planning Standards for Emel'.gency Classification will continue to be met - the Initiating Conditions for the applicable EALs will still be able to be determined at the same conditions and setpoints.

1.9 Determine and document if the proposed change(s) will result in a reduction in effectiveness.

The alteration regarding .changing the term "pager" to "ERO mobile device" will not result in a reduction in effectiveness. Use of cell phones instead of pagers to notify the ERO, will not require any changes to existing systems used to make notifications, nor the methodology used in notifying the ERO. This change will not impact the function of notification of the ERO.

The changes to the 4-Way phone system will not impact the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station's ability to meet the identified planning standards. The new

10 CFR 50.54(q) Evaluation NOP-LP-5002-02 Rev. 06 Page 11of13 Number 082017-012-00 Plant I Year I Number I Revision conference bridge will still provide the function for prompt communications (within 15 minutes) to the State and local response organizations for notification of a declared emergency event. The new_ conference bridge is designed to be more reliable than the existing, aging system. The backup means to make prompt communications to the State and local response organizations for notification of a declared emergency event is not affected by this change and remains available. Since the ability to notify the State and counties will not be impacted, this will not result in a decrease in effectiveness.

As was documented in 10CFR50.54(q) DB-2016-006-01, the new Seismic

. Monitoring system has greater capabilities than the original, in that it includes incorporation of original design features (such as use of previously analyzed seismically qualified cabinets) along with enhancements. The original plant power sources will be maintained, along with an enhancement of an internal battery in the Network Control Center (in the Control Room) and in each recorder for additional reliability. The single-trigger Is being eliminated, as the new design allows any of the four accelerometers to trigger the others and triggering will be indicated in the control room. The data retrieval portion of the system has been enhanced, which allows the Operator to quickly access the data and Indications available on the video display will be used to determine if a plant shutdown is required. The new system will maintain and exceed the original design requirements. The installation of the new Seismic Monitoring system will not result in a reduction in effectiveness to the DBNPS Emergency Plan. The Seismic Monitoring system being installed incorporates design enhancements above the original design for capability and reliability. This change will not result in a decrease in effectiveness, as all associated emergency plan functions for emergency classification will continue to be able to be performed. This wording change in the Emergency Plan is a conforming change to incorporate the description of the system, as previously evaluated under 10CFR50.54(q) DB 2016..
