IE TERMINATION AND RECOVERY CECC EPIP-16 Page2of 15 Revision 0 1.0 PURPOSE-This procedure provides guidance on termination and recovery from an incident for which onsite and offsite emergency centers were activated by the Site Emergency Director and transition from the Emergency Response Organization to the Recovery organization if necessary.

Termination begins when personnel responsible for the response effort determine that conditions are sufficiently stabilized to begin comparing them to pre-established decisional criteria. The termination decision and subsequent notification that an event no longer constitutes an Operational Emergency establishes the beginning of recovery.

Recovery is defined as those actions taken, after a plant has been brought to a stable or shutdown condition, to return the plant to normal operation. Recovery will begin when the emergency response is declared terminated. The level of recovery operations depends on the severity of the event. The recovery phase may be implemented in a graded approach from one of no recovery actions necessary to a fully implemented course of actions. When implemented, the recovery phase continues until the plant and any affected areas meet predetermined criteria for the resumption of normal operation or use.

Types of activities conducted during the recovery phase may include (but are not limited to):

  • Damage assessment
  • Environmental consequence assessment
  • Long-term protective action determinations
  • Plant and/or environmental restoration
  • Dissemination of information 2.0 SCOPE This procedure applies to the termination of a REP event which required activation of onsite and offsite emergency centers and actions for reentry and recovery activities required to restore the plant to normal operating condition and to provide assistance to state and local organizations.

3.0 RESPONSIBILITIES 3.1 The Senior Vice President, Nuclear Operations, or his designee will direct the overall recovery effort. If expected to be a long-term process, he may establish a recovery organization to be responsible for continuous direction and control of the recovery operation. This organizational structure would be contingent upon the emergency situation and required actions for recovery.

Staffing of the CECC may remain in whole or in part as necessary. The LRC is also available to provide additional office space near the site to support the recovery operation.

3.2 The CECC Director is responsible for coordinating with the Site Emergency Director, NRC, and appropriate offsite agencies in determining when to enter the recovery phase. Once that decision has been made, the CECC Director will notify the Senior Vice President, Nuclear Operations, or his designee.

TERMINATION AND _E EPIP-16 Page 3 of 15 RECOVERY Revision 0 If the event was associated with an emergency off-site either natural or manmade which impacted the off-site (State and local) emergency response, the NRC regional administrator will inform the affected license when the condition of the off-site emergency preparedness infrastructure can support a safe reactor restart. NRC Administrative Letter 97-03 which provides information for plant restart discussions following natural disasters is provided as Appendix C.

3.3 The CECC Public Information Manager (PIM) acts as an interface between TVA and the news media. The PIM assists the Senior Vice President, Nuclear Operations, CECC Director, or their designees with:

. drafting news releases concerning progress of the recovery operation

. coordinating all news releases with TVA management and State and Federal officials as required.

. coordinating all press briefings and interviews concerning the incident.

3.4 Radiological Assessment Manager (RAM) provides radiological support as necessary.

3.5 The Vice President, Engineering and Technical Services, will provide required technical support to the site.

3.6 The Manager, Nuclear Fuels, will provide needed technical services to the site. Technical services available include fuel management and core analysis, core performance, nuclear fuel control and accountability, and startup support.

4.0 PROCEDURES 4.1 Termination The decision to terminate an incident for which onsite and offsite emergency centers have been activated will be made by the Site Emergency Director after consultation with the plant technical and operations staffs and coordinated with the CECC Director. Proposals for termination of an emergency and entry into recovery will be coordinated with the State and NRC, if appropriate, through the CECC. Termination decisions should be based on site-specific EPIP-16 criteria and broad-based parameters such as:

Radiation or hazardous material exposure levels within the affected plant or area(s) are stable or decreasing with time.

The affected plant is in a stable condition, and there is a high probability that it can be maintained in that condition.

Releases of hazardous material to the environment have ceased or are controlled within permissible regulatory limits, and the potential for an uncontrolled release is low.

All emergency notifications have been completed.

The Site Emergency Director and CECC Director in consultation with the NRC and appropriate offsite agencies do not identify a valid reason to continue operating in the emergency response mode.

Initial recovery activities have been clearly identified and prioritized.

When applicable, a recovery staffing plan has been developed, approved and can be implemented.

TERMINATION AND l CECC EPIP-16 Page4 of15 RECOVERY l Revision 0 4.2 Recovery Operations

-Recovery planning and implementation will start with assessment of plant, site, and environmental conditions. There are three general areas of recovery operations: accident assessment and investigation, recovery planning and scheduling, and repair and restoration.

4.2.1 Accident Assessment and Investigation The following type of activities should be considered for accident assessment and investigation:

  • Plant management in coordination with TVAN Corporate management, should establish an investigation board to determine the root cause of the event and prepare a formal accident report.
  • All documents generated during the emergency response and useful to the accident investigation should be collected and organized.
  • Plant technical, operations, and maintenance staffs should assess the condition of the plant including structural integrity, equipment status, hazardous material containment/confinement barriers, and safety systems.
  • Provide support, when requested, to federal, state, and local government agencies for assistance with offsite dose assessment and related activities.

4.2.2 Recovery Planning and Scheduling The following type of activities should be considered for recovery planning and scheduling:

  • Notification to persons and agencies involved in the emergency response of the establishment of the Recovery Organization and the name of the person in charge.
  • Evaluation of emergency plans to determine if adequate emergency preparedness status can be maintained during degraded plant conditions (e.g., inaccessibility of assembly areas, inoperative emergency/safety instrumentation and equipment, etc.)
  • Establishment of specific criteria to be met prior to the resumption of normal operations or facility use.
  • Contact with the affected State to coordinate any support required for assessment and recovery of affected offsite areas.
  • Preparation of plans for the establishment of safe long-term conditions when the assessment indicates that a plant or affected area cannot be safely returned to normal operation or use.

TERMINATION AND CECC EPIP-16 Page 5 of 15 RECOVERY Revision 0

  • Identification of required repair and restoration work based on the assessment results.
  • Plan for the proper handling and disposal of all hazardous waste generated during recovery activities.
  • Establishment of a tracking organization to monitor all assigned tasks, including developing work packages, scheduling activities, and estimating costs.
  • Formation of a procedures review group to determine if specialized procedures are required and should be developed and to review and approve all special procedures.
  • Continued evaluation of site or facility hazards and contamination levels during estimating exposure to workers.

4.2.3 ReDair and Restoration Activities The following type of activities should be considered for repair and restoration activities:

  • Ensure that occupation exposure limits are followed in accordance with SPP-5.1, Radiological Controls.
  • Ensure that any discharges form recovery activities are controlled within regulatory and environmental compliance limits. If discharges are necessary beyond these limits, ensure all documentation is prepared, approvals obtained, and notifications made.
  • Conduct recovery activities through normal work organizations, practices, limitations, and procedures to the extent practical.
  • Replenish, repair, or replace any emergency equipment or consumable materials used during the emergency response.
  • Train applicable personnel on changes that occurred as a result of repair, restoration, and accident investigation.

~~~~~~~~~Revision 0 APPENDIX C NRC ADMINISTRATIVE LETTER 97-03 Page 1 of 4 UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION OFFICE OF NUCLEAR REACTOR REGULATION WASHINGTON, D.C. 20555-0001 March 28, 1997 NRC ADMINISTRATIVE LETTER 97-03: PLANT RESTART DISCUSSIONS FOLLOWING NATURAL DISASTERS Addressees All holders of operating licenses or construction permits for nuclear power reactors.

Purpose The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is issuing this administrative letter to inform addressees about a recently adopted internal practice. This practice involves coordinating the assessment of offsite recovery and onsite restart activities following a natural disaster (hurricane, tomado, flood, storm, earthquake, etc.) where offsite damage may be substantial or undetermined. This administrative letter does not transmit or imply any new or changed requirements or staff positions. No specific action or written response is required.

Background

Numerous events have occurred in recent years in which natural disasters have affected power reactor facilities. Most notable of these is Hurricane Andrew and its impact on the Turkey Point Station. The licensee for the Turkey Point plant shut the reactors down in anticipation of the storm. Onsite damage from the hurricane was extensive. After that event, the licensee repaired the damage and was ready to restart the plant before the offsite emergency preparedness infrastructure was ready to support the restart. An assessment of offsite conditions and infrastructure prior to restart was necessary to assure emergency preparedness in the event of a subsequent reactor accident.

Events have also occurred in which plants have shut down in anticipation of -

hurricane damage, which turned out to be minimal. Despite the absence of onsite damage, either some offsite damage occurred that affected the state of offsite emergency preparedness, or some damage occurred offsite such that the state of offsite emergency preparedness could not be determined immediately.

For these cases, the NRC coordinated with the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and the licensees involved to ensure that the restarts occurred after the offsite emergency preparedness infrastructure could safely support them.

I RECOVERY ND TERMINATONAN CECC EPIP-16 Page 12 of 15 Revision 0 APPENDIX C NRC ADMINISTRATIVE LETTER 97-03 Page 2 of 4 Discussion Although the overall responsibility for confirming the adequacy of radiological emergency preparedness of commercial nuclear power plants is vested with the NRC, it relies on FEMA's assessment of offsite emergency planning and response activities when carrying out this responsibility.

Section III of the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) Between FEMA and the NRC, dated June 17, 1993, lists responsibilities for both agencies for cooperating in the recovery from a disaster that affects the offsite emergency preparedness infrastructure surrounding power reactors. FEMA's headquarters (HQ) in Washington, D.C., is responsible for providing findings and determinations to the NRC concerning the adequacy of offsite preparedness in the areas surrounding power reactor sites following a severe natural event.

FEMA HQ bases its assessment on information from State and local governmental authorities, as well as from the affected FEMA regional office and the NRC.

In two recent instances (Hurricane Bertha, July 1996 and Hurricane Fran, September 1996), FEMA HQ chartered special evaluation teams to assess whether the offsite emergency preparedness infrastructure could support the restart of plants that had shut down in anticipation of hurricanes that affected the sites. These teams consisted of FEMA and NRC regional representatives, State and local emergency management representatives, and, in a limited capacity, power reactor licensee personnel. These teams provided assessments to FEMA HQ for its ultimate determinations that offsite emergency preparedness could support plant restart in both cases. The chartering of these special evaluation teams helped ensure a timely assessment of the condition of the offsite infrastructure and was based on experience gained with Hurricane Opal (October 1995) and the Quad Cities tornado (May 1996).

In some cases, a natural disaster may occur where onsite damage is minimal, but offsite damage may be substantial or undetermined. In these cases, the plant may be ready to start up shortly after the event. Communications in these cases between the licensee and NRC, the NRC and FEMA, and FEMA and offsite officials will be aggressive; however, stringent protocols will be observed to ensure that FEMA and the NRC operate within the guidelines of the MOU.

The NRC uses FEMA's determinations to inform power reactor licensees when the condition of the offsite emergency preparedness infrastructure can support a reactor restart. The Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation (NRR), as well as NRC regional offices, have adopted a communication protocol that links key personnel in the two agencies and the affected licensee organization. An overview of this protocol is attached. Some of the key points of this protocol are:

1. NRC regional office personnel maintain close contact with the affected power reactor licensee to determine the state of onsite emergency preparedness and the plans for restart. The NRC regional office communicates this information rapidly to NRR.

2. FEMA regional office personnel maintain close contact with their evaluators in the field, the affected State and local emergency management officials, and the affected NRC regional office to determine the state of offsite emergency preparedness. The FEMA regional office communicates this information rapidly to FEMA HQ.
3. The final assessment that offsite emergency preparedness can support a power reactor restart originates from FEMA HQ.
4. A single individual in NRR serves as the point of contact with FEMA HQ to receive this assessment. The individual communicates this information rapidly to NRR management and the cognizant NRC regional office.
5. After the assessment from FEMA is received and discussed with NRR management, the NRC regional administrator informs the affected licensee that the condition of the offsite emergency preparedness infrastructure can support a safe reactor restart.

The NRC has developed this protocol as a result of discussions with FEMA, as well as lessons learned from Hurricane Andrew and other events. The objective of this protocol is to ensure that aggressive and rapid information flow occurs between the involved organizations following natural disasters at power reactors. The NRC expects that the use of this protocol will ensure that the determination that the condition of the offsite emergency preparedness infrastructure can support a reactor restart will be made before the licensee is actually ready to restart the reactor plant(s). In the event that the determination is not made before the licensee is ready to restart the plant(s), the NRC will evaluate the need to delay the restart through the issuance of an order or confirmatory action letter. By accomplishing this protocol, the licensee, FEMA, and NRC can provide for safe and rapid restarts of power reactors in the wake of these disasters and assure that the offsite emergency preparedness infrastructure can function as expected if called upon in an emergency.

This administrative letter requires no specific action or written response.

If you have any questions about this letter, please contact the contact listed below or the appropriate Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation (NRR) project manager.
