Dear Mr. Collins:

Enclosed is a copy of the radiological emergency preparedness final report for the River Bend Station Plume Pathway exercise evaluated on June 11, 2008.

There were three areas requiring corrective action (ARCAs) which were corrected during the exercise.

Based on the results of this exercise, the offsite radiological emergency response plans and preparedness for the State of Louisiana and the affected local jurisdictions are deemed adequate to provide reasonable assurance that appropriate. measures can be taken to protect the health and safety of the public in the event of a radiological emergency. Therefore. 44 CFR Part 350 approval of the offsite radiological emergency response plans and preparedness for the State of Louisiana site-specific to River Bend Station will remain in effect.

A copy of thisreport was provided electronically to Ms. Kathryn Brock, Of....,ce of Nuclear Security and Incident Response, at NRC Headquarters. Should you have questions, please contact Lisa Hamimniond. Regional Assistance Committee Chair, at 940-898-5199, or Elsa Lopez, Louisiana Site Specialist, at 940-898-5308.

1. Executive Summary On June 11, 2008, a biennial Radiological Emergency Preparedness (REP) exercise was conducted for the Plume Exposure Pathway Emergency Planning Zone (EPZ) around the River Bend Station (RBS), located near St. Francisville, Louisiana.

Personnel from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security-Federal Emergency Management Agency (DHS-FEMA) Region VI, evaluated all activities. The purpose of the exercise was to assess the level of preparedness of local responders to react to a simulated radiological emergency at RBS. It was held in accordance with FEMA's policies and guidance concerning the implementation of state and local REP plans and procedures.

The previous exercise at this site was conducted on August 16, 2006. The first qualifying exercise to satisfy FEMA rule 44 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) 350 requirements for Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) licensing to operate the facility was conducted in January 1985. Including the exercise on June 11, 2008, there have been fourteen DHS-FEMA Region VI evaluated exercises plus several drills conducted since then.

FEMA Region VI wishes to acknowledge the efforts of the many individuals in the State of Louisiana, West Feliciana, East Feliciana, Pointe Coupee, East Baton Rouge and West Baton Rouge Parishes who participated in this exercise. Protecting the public health and safety is the full-time job of some of the exercise participants and an additional assigned responsibility for others. Still others have willingly sought this responsibility by volunteering to provide vital emergency services to their communities.

Cooperation and teamwork of all the participants was evident during this exercise.

This report includes the identification of any exercise issues and recommendations for corrective action where appropriate.

All state and local organizations, except where noted in this report, demonstrated an adequate knowledge of the emergency response plans and procedures and properly implemented them. There were no Deficiences, three Areas Requiring Corrective Action (ARCA) that were corrected on the spot, no Areas Recommended for Improvement (ARFIs), and one Planning Issue identified during the exercise.

2. Introduction On December 7, 1979, the President directed the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) to assume the lead responsibility for all offsite nuclear planning and response. FEMA's activities under the REP.Program are conducted pursuant to 44 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Parts 350, 351 and -352. These regulations are a key element in the Radiological Emergency Preparedness (REP) Program that was established following the Three Mile Island Nuclear Station accident in March 1979.

Rule 44 CFR 350 establishes the policies and procedures for the DHS-FEMA Region VI Office's initial and continued approval of tribal, state and local governments' radiological emergency planning and preparedness for commercial nuclear power plants:, This approval is contingent, in part, on state and local government participation injoint exercises with-licensees.

FEMA's Region VI responsibilities in radiological emergency planning for fixed nuclear facilities include the following:

- Taking the lead in offsite emergency planning and in the review and evaluation of radiological emergency response plans .(RERPs) and procedures developed by state and local governments, ensuring .the plans meet the federal criteria set forth in NUREG-0654/FEMA REP-1, Rev. 1 (November 1980);

- Determining whether such plansand procedures can be implemented on the basis of observation and evaluation of an exercise. conducted by the appropriate emergency, response jurisdictions;

- Responding to'requests by the U.S., Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) pursuant to the.Memorandum:of Understanding between -the NRCand FEMA dated June 17, 1993 (FederalRegister, Vol. 58, No. 176, September 14, 1,993); and

- Coordinating the activities of volunteer organizations and other Federal agencies with responsibilities in the radiological emergency planning process.,

Presented below is a definition of the terms used in this subsection relative to demonstration status.

Met - Listing of the demonstrated exercise evaluation area criteria under which no Deficiencies or ARCAs were assessed during this exercise and under which no ARCAs assessed during prior exercises remain unresolved.

Deficiency - Listing of the demonstrated exercise evaluation area criteria under which one or more Deficiencies were assessed during this exercise. Included is a description of each Deficiency and recommended corrective actions..

Area Requiring Corrective Actions - Listing of the demonstrated exercise evaluation area criteria under which one or more ARCAs were assessed during the current exercise, or ARCAs assessed during prior exercises remain unresolved. included is a description of the ARCAs assessed during.,this exercise and the recommended corrective action to be demonstrated beforeo r"during the next biennial eXercise'.

Not Demonstrated - Listing of the exercise evaluation area criteria which were not demonstrated as scheduled during this exercise and theý reason they were not demonstrated.

Prior ARCAs - Resolved - Descriptions of ARCAs assessed dUring previous exercises that were. resolved in this exercise and the corrective.'actions .demonstrated.

Prior ARCAs - Unresolved.- Descriptions of ARCAs assessed during prior exercises that were not resolved in this exercise. Included is the reaeson the6ARCA remains"-

unresolved and recommended corrective actions to-be demonstrated before or during the next biennial exercise.

The following are definitions of the two types of exercise issues that are discussed in this report. .

A Deficiency is defined in the.Interim REP Program Manual as.'"-..an observed or.

identified inadequacy of organizational performance in an exer-cise that-could cause a finding that offsite emergency preparedness is not adequate to provide reasonable 1.3',

assurance that appropriate protective measures can be taken in the event of a radiological emergency to protect the health and safety of the public living in the vicinity of a nuclear power plant."

An ARCA is defined in the Interim REP Program Manual as "...an observed or identified inadequacy of organizational performance in an exercise that is not considered, by itself, to adversely impact public health and safety."

-The-DI-S-FEMA Region VI Office has developeda standardized system for numbering exercise issues (Deficiencies, ARCAs and Plan Issues). This system is used to achieve consistency in numbering exercise issues among DHS-FEMA Regional Offices and site-specific exercise reports within-each Regional Office. It is also used to expedite tracking of exercise issues on a nationwide basis.

The identifying number for Deficiencies, ARCAs, and Plan Issues includes the following elements, with each element separated by a hyphen (-).

Plant Site Identifier - A two-digi.t number corresponding to the Utility Billable Plant Site Codes.

Exercise Year - The last two digits of the year the exercise was conducted.

Evaluation Area Criterion - A letter and number corresponding to the Evaluation Area criterion.

Issue Classification Identifier - (D = Deficiency, A = ARCA, and P = Plan Issues).

Exercise Issue Identification Number - A separate two (or three) digit indexing number assigned to each issue identified in the exercise.

CONDITION: During the initial personnel survey the emergency worker misread the reading from the meter face as 1000 mR instead of 1000 counts per minute. This error was not cbrre~cted until the controller stopped play.

POSSIBLE CAUSE: Possible lack of radiological equipment training to the emergency worker providing the initial pe~rsbnnel monitoiing.

REFERENCE:

East Baton Rouge Parish Emergency'Response Procedure for Reception Center (Baton Rouge River'Center), Attachment 6: Initial Personnel Monitor.

Interim REP Program Manual, page 111-92.

17:

EFFECT: Following the termination of the reception center operations, the suvery results are turned over to Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality. If those results show 1000 mR from the surveys, it would indicate that the evacuees received a dose from the release. The survey meters used at the reception center read counts per minute which measures the radioactivity or contamination.

CORRECTIVE ACTION DEMONSTRATED: The play was stopped by the controller and additional radiological equipment training was given to the emergency worker at the initial personnel monitoring station. Play proceeded and the emergency worker gave the correct reading of 1000 counts per minute to the recorder.

.West Batoh Rouge Parish West Feliciana Parish 44

STATE OF LOUISIANA RIVER BEND STATION EXERCISE June 11, 2008 Purpose This exercise will be conducted for the purpose of testing the ability of the following organizations to address an emergency at the River Bend Station: the State of Louisiana through the Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality and the Governor's Office of Homeland Security and Emergency Preparedness; East Baton Rouge Parish; East Feliciana Parish: Pointe Coupee Parish; West Baton Rouge Parish; and West'Feliciana Parish.

II. Objective The objectives for offsite activities are listed in Attachment 1.

Ill. Summary of Events Attachment 2 contains a detailed timeline of major onsite activities. The following is a summary of those events.

The initial conditions include the information that Div II diesel generator (D/G) was running parallel to the grid per procedure SOP-0053 and tripped at 0755, 5 minutes before the drill start. The drill will start at 0800. The first event after the crew has assumed the shift is a control rod drop accident. At approximately 0845, the Shift Manager (OSM) will receive a chemistry report that the reactor coolant sample analysis indicates activity greater than 300 pCi/gm dose equivalent 1-131. An Alert will be declared at approximately 0845 to 0900 on fission product barrier category FA I - I.

At approximately 0940, a grid transient will cause spurious trips of CNM-PI A, CNM-PIC, CCS-PIA, and NJS-LDCIA supply breaker. The reactor will scram on lowering water level due to the loss of condensate (CNM) and feedwater (FWS). The RCIC injection system will initiate (manually or automatically) to maintain post scram reactor water level. The high pressure coolant injection system (HPCS) may initially inject if level lowers to -42" or if manually initiated. HPCS will be secured. Reactor pressure vessel (RPV) pressure will be controlled using main steam drains or safety relief valves (SRVs).

The RPV scram transient will result in a weld failure on the reactor coolant Recirculation system (Recirc or RCS) loop A pump suction line. Unidentified leakage will rise to approximately 200 gpm and a drywell (DW) 1.68 psid signal will occur at approximately 0945. The drywell high pressure 1.68 psid initiation setpoint is an indication of loss of the reactor coolant system barrier. Atapprgxirnately:0945 to 1000 a Site Area Emergency will be declared on FSI EAL I (FCI and;RC .), loss, or potential loss of 2 barriers. The SAE will be declared within 15 minutes of re.aching 1.68 ,psid:ci At approximately 1I 18, the RCS leak at Recirc-A line'crack degrades to a line break between the suction valve B33-MOVF023A-and the Recirecpuriip A. RCIC and CRD will inject but the magnitude of the leak is greater~than the makeupi. The drywell airlock door seal will fail and alarms will come in on control room panel P863 to alert operators. This is indication of drywell bypass leakage.

45.

STATE OF LOUISIANA RIVER BEND STATION EXERCISE June 11, 2008 The crew will attempt to inject with HPCS but the injection valve E22-MOVFO04 fails to re-open. Level will lower to < -162". top of active fuel (TAF). at approximately 1125 to 1130.

After level lowers below TAF, area radiation monitors and the Containment / Drywell post accident monitor (PAM) indications will rise. Seven safety relief valves (SRVs) will be opened to emergency depressurize the RPV to enable low pressure emergency core cooling system (ECCS) injection. RHR A will inject but RHR B and C valves, LPCS injection valve, and HIPCS injection valve fail to open. The Severe Accident Procedure (SAP) containment flooding will be entered when RPV level cannot be restored and maintained above -186 inches. The estimated time for SAP entry is around 1145. Control room supervisor decision making process will determine entry. General emergency conditions are met when the SAPs are entered and GE FGI-i will be declared within 15 minutes of entering the SAPs. (FCI and RCI loss and PC2'potential loss) The containment and-dryw'ell post accident monitor readings will rise. Mihimum PAR scenario 6,will be recommended.

Theý drywell airl6ck seals fail causing drywell bypass to 'the containment atmosphere.

Containment integrity is 'maintained throughout the scenario. The activity in the containment is not scrubbed 'because 'of the. drywell bypass. 'Radiation release is from the containment design leakage into the annulus aid will 'be filtered by Standby Gas Treatment system prior to release to the environment.

':HePCSinjection valve 4 ,ill'faii toopen ahd after RPV depressurization, LPCS and LPCI B &

C injection valves will fail to auto open once below the shutoff head due to MOV failures.

RHR A SDC injection valve MOVF053A or injection valve MOVF042A may be opened after the low pressure interlocks clear:

NJS-SWGIA will be restored and the RCS leak will be isolated at approximately 1245 by closing the Recirc A suictiori'valve 'MOVF023A. Level xrill be restored above TAF. The "nainplintrefflueni monit6r'reading will lower after restoring level..

At approximately 1330 t61 400,.the simulator will be placed in FREEZE after verifying that all onsite and offsite objectives have: been demonstrated.'
