7.0 PROCEDURE 7.1 NOTIFICATION TO STATE AND LOCAL AUTHORITIES CAUTION:

SPECIAL CARE MUST BE TAKEN IN TRANSFERRING RESPONSIBILITY FOR PERFORMING OFFSITE NOTIFICATIONS TO ANOTHER FACILITY. A PROPER TURNOVER IS IMPERATIVE. NOTIFICATION OF STATE AND LOCAL AUTHORITIES WILL BE MADE WITHIN APPROXIMATELY FIFTEEN MINUTES OF DECLARING OR CHANGING ANY EMERGENCY CLASSIFICATION. THE EMERGENCY DIRECTOR'S AUTHORIZATION MUST BE OBTAINED PRIOR TO TRANSMITTING THE NOTIFICATION MESSAGE.

7.1.1 The Emergency Director will designate the Emergency Response Facility, which has priority over emergency notifications and communications (i.e., Control Room, TSC, or EOF). The Emergency Director in the Control Room will complete form TRN-0001, Emergency Notification, when offsite notifications originate from the Control Room. Designated personnel in the TSC or EOF will obtain the information to complete form TRN-0001, Emergency Notification, when offsite notifications originate from either of these locations.

7.1.2 Information contained on form TRN-0001, Emergency Notification, will be communicated to State and Local authorities via the Emergency Notification Network (ENN). Attachment 1 outlines the information requirements of form TRN-0001, Emergency Notification for initial and follow-up notifications. Attachment 2 outlines operating instructions for use of the Southern LINC equipment for ENN notifications. Attachment 5 outlines operating instructions for the fax machines used to fax TRN-001, Emergency Notification, to State and local authorities and the company emergency facility locations.

_NOTE:

A follow-up notification is a notification, which provides additional information that N

relates to the current emergency classification.

7.3 FOLLOW-UP NOTIFICATIONS 7.3.1 For follow-up notifications, information will be obtained to complete, at a minimum, line items 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, & 7 on TRN-0001, Emergency Notification. Any changes in events which are occurring, any changes in parameters and/or any information which was not available within the 15 minute initial notification timeframe (line items 8-15) must be reported on the appropriate line item for all follow-up notifications. Any other line item that is not changed can be left blank. It is acceptable to provide only information that has changed for any item on the form for a follow-up notification.

7.3.2 Obtain the Emergency Director's approval on line item 16 of the information on form TRN-0001, Emergency Notification.

7.3.3 Refer to steps 7.2.3 through 7.2.11 to complete the follow-up notification to the State and Local authorities.

7.4 COMMUNICATIONS PROTOCOL AND USE 7.4.1 Whenever one organization is contacting another organization, appropriate communications protocol must be used. An acceptable protocol is as follows:

Example: "GEMA, This is the EOF, over."

GEMA would then respond:

"EOF, this is GEMA, go ahead."

7.4.2 The ENN may also be used for the transmission of technical, radiological and meteorological data upon request of State and Local authorities.

7.5 FALSE NOTIFICATIONS 7.5.1 IF an attempted false notification OR other misuse of the ENN occurs, the speakers in the Emergency Operations Facility (EOF), Technical Support Center (TSC), and Control Room will automatically activate, allowing Plant Hatch personnel to also receive the information.

"Negative, Negative, Negative. This is (give Name and Title). Acknowledge negative."

7.5.3 Acknowledgment must be received from State and Local authorities. IF the State OR Local authorities fail to acknowledge using the ENN, acknowledgment must be obtained by alternate means as outlined in step 7.2.3.

7.6 NRC NOTIFICATIONS 7.6.1 The Emergency Director will ensure that notifications to the NRC will be in accordance with 31GO-OPS-013-0 and O0AC-REG-001-0. Notifications to the NRC will be as soon as possible, but no later than one hour following declaration of the emergency.

7.6.2 The Emergency Director will designate the Emergency Response Facility which has priority over NRC Notifications and Communications (i.e., Control Room, or TSC). The Control Room will be relieved of this duty as soon as the TSC is activated.

7.6.3 IF requested by the NRC, an open communication pathway must be maintained.

Follow-up notifications to the NRC are required as conditions change (reactor/plant status, emergency class, release status, etc.).

7.6.4 The primary method of communication with the NRC will be the Emergency Notification System (ENS). The ENS operates on the Federal Telecommunications System (FTS) network. To contact the NRC via the ENS, dial the telephone numbers from the ENS station as listed in the Emergency Call List.

IF the ENS communication link is inoperable, commercial lines may be utilized to contact the NRC Operations Center (NRCOC) by dialing the telephone numbers as listed in the Emergency Call List.

The other FTS communication links in the TSC and EOF may be utilized to contact the NRC Operations Center (NRCOC) as required. Refer to the Emergency Call List for the appropriate telephone numbers to use. FTS communication links are listed below.

1. Press the "Group" button on the So. Linc - ENN unit to ensure you are in the Group mode of operation. The unit will display 'Wide Area" and '21: HEP ENN". This group includes all State and local agency locations with which emergency notification information is to be provided.

NOTE:

A "time-out" timer limits the amount of time you can continuously talk to 2 minutes.

When the allotted time expires, you will hear a low-pitched cut-off tone. Releasing the "push to talk" button inside the handset will clear this condition and allow to reestablish communications.

2. Pick up the handset from the cradle and press and hold the "push to talk" (PTT) button located inside the handset. Upon pressing the PTT button, you will hear a high, chirp-like tone that indicates you have permission to talk. Begin speaking after hearing the tone.

3. Release the PTT button when you have finished talking. This will allow you to hear incoming transmissions.
