EP-AD-000-200, Revision 20, Page 1 of 38
Tab 3 EP-PS-243-3 CLASSIFICATION OF EMERGENCY CONDITIONS USE OF EMERGENCY CLASSIFICATION MATRIX NOTE: CONFIRM THAT INDICATORS AND/OR ALARMS REFLECT ACTUAL CONDITIONS PRIOR TO TAKING ACTION BASED ON THE INDICATOR OR ALARM.
The matrix is worded in a manner that assumes parameter values indicated are the actual conditions present in the plant.
The matrix is designed to make it possible to precisely classify an abniormal occurrence into the proper emergency classification based on detailed Emergency Action Level (EAL) descriptions.
It is impossible to anticipate every abnormal occurrence. Therefore, before classifying any abnormal occurrence based on the EALs in the matrix, one should verify that the general conditions prevalent in-plant and offsite meet the general class description of the emergency classification. In addition, prior to classification, one should be aware of the ramifications in-plant and particularly offsite of that classification. Special consideration of offsite consequences should be made prior to declaring a GENERAL EMERGENCY.
EP-AD-000-200, Revision 20, Page 2 of 38
Tab3 EP-PS-243-3 CLASS DESCRIPTIONS UNUSUALEVENT - Events that are occurring or have occurred which indicate a potential degradation of the level of safety of the plant.
No releases of radioactive material requiring offsite response or monitoring are expected unless further degradation of safety systems occurs.
ALERT - Events that are occurring or have occurred which involve an actual or potential substantial degradation of the level of safety of the plant. Any releases are expected to be limited to small fractions of the EPA Protective Action Guideline exposure levels.
SITE AREA EMERGENCY - .Events that are occurring or have occurred which involve actual or imminent major failures of plant functions needed for protection of the public. Any releases are not expected to exceed EPA Protective Action Guideline exposure levels except inside the emergency planning boundary..
GENERAL EMERGENCY - Events that are occurring or have occurred which involve actual or imminent substantial core degradation or melting with potential for loss of containment integrity. Expectation is that releases will exceed EPA Protective Action Guideline exposure levels beyond the emergency planning boundary.
