3.0 DISCUSSION 3.1 The Emergency Director (ED) is the Energy Northwest individual on site at all times who shall have the authority and responsibility to immediately and unilaterally initiate any emergency actions.
{R-5708}
3.2 The Columbia Generating Station Shift Manager will normally act as ED when an emergency classification is initially declared. ED responsibilities will transfer from the Shift Manager to the TSC Manager or the EOF Manager depending upon time of facility activation.
3.3 The Shift Manager is responsible for plant operations and during an emergency will be in charge of directing the activities of on shift personnel in taking those actions necessary to mitigate the emergency conditions. The Shift Manager is the ultimate authority in prioritizing and initiating all phases of plant operations.
{R-5695}
3.4 The Shift Manager and Security Supervisor are responsible to determine the appropriate course of action to deal with a security contingency that has the potential to threaten emergency response center activation and personnel safety.
3.5 Severe Accident Guidelines (SAGs) are entered and Emergency Operating Procedures (EOPs) are exited when primary containment flooding is required.
3.6 Once emergency operations commence and EPIPs are entered, normal work control practices are superceded by EPIP repair team work task methodology. When the emergency is terminated or recovery operations begin, normal work control practices are reinstated.
4.0 PROCEDURE 4.1 Shift Manager Actions NOTE: Shift Manager procedural steps may be documented using Attachment 5.1, Shift Manager Checklist.
4.1.1 Diagnose plant conditions and direct necessary actions to alleviate abnormal conditions.

b)
Ensure appropriate Control Room log entries are made for the emergency classifications and offsite notification actions.
c)
At Site Area Emergency or higher classification, assign an individual in the Control Room to perform center accountability duties per PPM 13.5.5 if manual accountability is necessary.
4.1.3 If it becomes necessary to activate the TSC and OSC at an Unusual Event for additional support, activate both centers.
a)
Use form 26171, Partial Activation or Manpower Schedule, to record an on-the-fly auto-dialer message to summon OSC and TSC staff at Unusual Event.
4.1.4 For any potential security scenario that could pose a threat to emergency center activation and personnel safety, confer with the Security Supervisor to determine:
PROCEDURE NUMBER REVISION PAGE 13.10.1 25 5 of 20
appropriate areas for TSC and OSC operations avenues of safe access communications abilities the ability of Security to keep the area safe if it is safe to summon the ERO or activate emergency centers NOTE: If the SCC is not available to complete offsite notifications, the Control Room must complete offsite notifications until the SCC can resume this responsibility.
4.1.5 If the TSC and OSC are activated, direct the TSC to suspend in-plant activities until further notice.
4.1.6 If security event conditions exist for an emergency classification, declare the appropriate classification and initiate the offsite agency notification process, but do not summon the ERO or activate emergency centers until it is safe to do so. Confer with the Security Supervisor to make that determination.
However:
a)
If it is determined that is safe to activate the ERO and all emergency centers, initiate the appropriate autodialer scenario.
b)
If it is determined that it is NOT safe to activate the ERO or any emergency center, AND after hours ERO response is required, initiate the security contingency autodialer scenario (#191).
- 1)
Based on consultation with the Security Supervisor, instruct on site TSC and OSC responders to delay reporting to their emergency centers. Refer to form 26045 (pink form) to prepare an appropriate PA announcement for on-site responders.
Otherwise, inform the OSC and TSC responders to report to their emergency center directly.
4.1.7 If conditions still exist for an emergency classification at the time the security scenario is terminated, initiate the normal notification process. Refer to form 26045 (pink form).
4.1.8 If conditions no longer exist for the emergency classification at the time the security event is terminated and it is desired to terminate the emergency classification, do not notify the ERO or activate emergency centers unless other emergency conditions make it necessary.

3.3 EDPS (Puff) - A dose projection computer program which employs all the design capabilities of multi-meteorology station data, variable source term via iterative data entry, full release time specification and a full output map selection. EDPS will compute dose/dose rate/deposition based on effluent monitor releases or reactor conditions out to 50 miles. EDPS provides the opportunity to modify the source term, reactor power, and release rates. EDPS will accept data from up to 50 meteorology stations to more realistically model the radioactive release via the puff dispersion model.

GENERAL EMERGENCY TEMPORARY FLIGHT RESTRICTION (TFR) REQUEST Call the Auburn office of the FAA (Refer to Emergency Telephone Directory for current number) and make a statement similar to the following:
I am of the Energy Northwest Emergency Operations Facility staff.
Emergency conditions exist at Columbia Generating Station on the Hanford Reservation.
We are releasing (expect to release) radioactive gas to the atmosphere. Accordingly, we recommend that the airspace for 10 miles around the Pasco approach vector (Pasco 305 radial, 18 DME, surface to 5,000 feet above mean sea level) be closed for unauthorized aircraft.
At the present time the plume is (or expected to be) located at:
(Obtain plume direction and distance from REM)
Restrictions:
"0 This is expected to infringe upon the approaches to the Richland Airport, therefore, operations should not be authorized for Richland Airport.
"0 This is not expected to infringe upon the approaches to the Richland Airport, therefore, operations should be authorized for Richland Airport.
NOTE: If Richland airport closure is authorized, you may need to call FAA for authorization to land (or take off) aircraft bringing outside responders, or conducting aerial monitoring activity. FAA will need to know the aircraft's identification and arrival (or departure) time for each instance.
This is not expected to infringe on the Pasco Airport or responding emergency support personnel.
I may be reached at (509) (_
.)
if you need further information verification, or if someone wishes to request authorization into the area.
