I TAB D EP-PS-1 04-D Revision 5 Page 1 of 3 MAJOR TASK:

Take inventory of information required to analyze the radiological situation.

SPECIFIC TASKS:

HOW:

1.

Evaluate offsite radiological 1 a.

Review available data such as:

conditions.

(1)

Valid release rates (airborne and liquid).

(2)

Field measurements.

(3)

Meteorological data.

(4)

Dose calculations.

(5)

Affected sectors.

NOTE:

"White" PICSY data is an indication of unreliable data. It may be normal and acceptable due to low or no flow in the SPING Monitor or may indicate a release exceeding the range of the instrument or an indication of instrumentation or computer interface problems.

HELP Response Levels for Protection Action Guides See TAB 3 HELP Liquid Discharge Data Sheets See TAB 14 HELP TSC Dose Assessment Flowchart See TAB 16 lb.

Determine if Iodine detection channels are over responding due to interference from noble gas or short lived nitrogen isotopes. The data is suspect if the NG/l-131 release rate ratio is less than 1,000 for a given vent.

TAB D EP-PS-104-D Revision 5 Page 2 of 3 SPECIFIC TASKS:

HOW:

HELP TSC Dose Assessment Flowchart See TAB 16 Page 3 1c.

If low confidence (white) PICSY data exists:

(1)

If data is suspect, consult with Operations or Engineering to determine if condition is normal.

(2)

Use appropriate data such as grab sample (vent, PAVSS, HP air samples) results or previously measured or default noble gas to iodine/particulate ratios in Forward Calculation.

HELP TSC Dose Assessment Flowcharts See TAB 16 Page 4 (3)

Ensure OSCAR is taking air samples as appropriate and is maintaining their exposure ALARA.

(4)

Report conditions as a potential unmonitored or an unmonitored release depending on measured to projected dose rate ratios.

(5)

Initiate Back Calculations if field data is available.

TAB D EP-PS-104-D Revision 5 Page 3 of 3 SPECIFIC TASKS:

HOW:

2.

Evaluate onsite radiological 2a.

Review available data such as:

conditions.

(1)

ARMs.

(2)

Containment integrity.

(3)

Containment high rad monitor.

(4)

Liquid release.

(5)

CAM's.

(6)

INDIA Team's survey data.

(7)

HVAC status/conditions.

(8)

Status of turbine building doors.

(9)

Status of blow-out panels.

TAB F EP-PS-104-F Revision 5 Page 1 of 1 MAJOR TASK:

Assess emergency classification and confirm or recommend changes to the Emergency Director.

SPECIFIC TASKS:

HOW:

1.

Quantify available radiological release information.

2.

Classify conditions using matrix.

3.

Recommend any changes in classification to the Emergency Director.

1 a.

Quantify both airborne and/or liquid releases.

HELP Emergency Classification See TAB 6 HELP Liquid Discharge Data Sheets See TAB 14 HELP TSC Dose Assessment Flowchart See TAB 16 I

TAB I EP-PS-1 04-1 Revision 8 Page 1 of 2 MAJOR TASK:

Continue assessing radiological situation, updating Emergency Director, TSC staff, and Health Physics staff.

SPECIFIC TASKS:

HOW:

1.

Attend TSC briefing and provide radiological status.

2.

Periodically brief Health Physics staff and receive updates from them.

3.

Perform frequent on-going assessment of radiological situation both offsite and onsite.

4.

Periodically perform general HP operation assessment.

5.

Provide information to Ops Coordinator on rad releases and projected doses to the public for use by Control Room personnel.

la.

Give the status of the following items at the briefing:

(1)

Current radiological release status and Dose Projections.

(2)

Current and forecast weather conditions.

(3)

Oscar locations, current radiological information, and Real Time Monitoring System data.

(4)

In-plant radiological conditions.

(5)

Protective action(s) implemented or under consideration.

HELP TSC Rad Staff Responsibilities See TAB 9 4a.

Verify form flows, board is being maintained, contamination controls in place, and that staffing is adequate.

5a.

Notify Operations Coordinator if doses at the EPB are projected to exceed 1 rem TEDE or 5 rem Thyroid CDE. Control Room needs radiological data to evaluate entry conditions and action levels for EOP procedures. These procedures require operator actions such as rapid depressurization based on projected doses.

I

TAB I EP-PS-104-1 Revision 8 Page 2 of 2 SPECIFIC TASKS:

HOW:

NOTE:

These procedures also require that projected doses be determined when containment venting is needed.

5b.

Discuss projection time with Ops Coordinator. (This may differ from the default projection time being used in the dose projection model.) Consider the following:

(1)

Prognosis of event.

(2)

Time to cooldown to <200 deg.

(3)

Duration & type of release.

(4)

Weather forecasts.

(5)

Protective measures already implemented.

(6)

Release pathway - possible filtration and/or monitoring.

"6.

Continue to evaluate the current PAR and recommend revising the PAR to the Emergency Director based on increasing dose levels.
