1. Yankee Nuclear Power Station Defueled Emergency Plan
2. AP-0227, "Condition Reporting and Investigation" DISCUSSION Emergency drills and exercises shall be conducted to assure the capability of the Emergency Response Organization (ERO) to execute the Defueled Emergency Plan (DEP) and the Defueled Emergency Plan Implementing Procedures (DEPIPs).

Drills are supervised instruction periods aimed at testing, developing and maintaining the skills necessary to perform a particular emergency response function. Drills may be performed independently, in combination with, or as a component of the required annual exercise.

Exercises are events which test the integrated capability and a major portion of the basic elements within the emergency plan.

The four categories of Emergency Preparedness Drills are briefly described below:

Emergency A drill conducted at least annually to test and Response: evaluate the augmentation capabilities of the Emergency Response Organization (ERO). It will evaluate the time required for designated personnel to respond to the plant. These drills are typically simulated.

AP-3400 Rev. 11 Fire: A drill to test and evaluate the response and training of the plant's Fire Brigade. Drills may be performed in conjunction with off-site fire support. Routine fire drills are conducted in accordance with AP-0503, "Fire Protection Training", and are not addressed by this procedure.

Medical A drill conducted at least annually to train as Response: well as test and evaluate the response of the plant's Medical Response Team. Drills will involve simulated contaminated victims and the participation of off-site medical support service agencies.

Radiation An annual drill to test and evaluate the Protection: response to emergency radiation protection situations.

Each type of drill should test a specific range of emergency response actions. Drill performance will be supervised and evaluated by individuals qualified in the designated area(s) of response. Qualified individuals may assist the Emergency Plan Coordinator (EPC) in preparing and/or conducting drills; However, drill preparation and conduct is the responsibility of the EPC.

PRECAUTIONS Participants in drills and/or exercises may need to utilize plant equipment outside of the industrial areas (radiation detection instruments, medical equipment, etc.). If an individual is a drill participant, removal of equipment for drill purposes shall be allowed without an approved property pass. All equipment shall be restored to its pre-drill status/location following drill/exercise termination.

EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS DRILL/EXERCISE EVALUATION CRITERIA Directions Complete the evaluation of the drill or exercise using the rating scale below.

Evaluations should be based on the drill or exercise objectives. Consider all comments or suggestions for improvement included on the Drill/Exercise Evaluation Forms.

RatinQ Symbol Comments and Suggested Improvements Strength S No comment necessary.

Weakness W Must be followed by comments, together with suggestions for improvement.

Areas for Improvement A May be followed by comments and suggestions for improvements.

Not Observed or N No comments or suggestions are Not Applicable required.

DEFINITIONS Strengths Strengths are actions taken by the ERO which provide strong positive indication of their ability to cope with abnormal conditions and effectively implement the Defueled Emergency Plan.

Weaknesses Weaknesses are findings that the ERO's demonstrated level of performance could have precluded effective implementation of the Defueled Emergency Plan in the event of an actual emergency in the area being observed. The existence of a weakness does not, of itself, indicate that overall response was inadequate to provide the required emergency response function or to protect the health and safety of the public.

Areas for Improvement Areas for improvement are findings which do not have a significant negative impact on the ability of the ERO to implement the Defueled Emergency Plan.

Although the emergency response related to a noted area for improvement is adequate, the finding should still be evaluated to determine if corrective action could be taken to improve performance.
