~ PVNGS Evaluation (1)
Comply with 10CFR50 Appendix E The PVNGS Emergency Plan submitted with the FSAR complies with Appendix E, "Emergency Facilities" to 10 CFR Part 50 and to Regulation Guide 1.101 as discussed in FSAR Sec-tion 1.8.
The Arizona Division of Emergency Services is currently preparing a comprehensive emergency response plan for fixed nuclear facilities which will incorporate actions to be taken by levels of government within the State of Arizona.
This plan is expected to meet the essential elements of NUREG-75/ill and is expected to be forwarded to FENA for review prior to fuel loading of Unit 1.
(2)
Comply with NUREG-0654 The PVNGS Emergency Plan addresses the emergency planning criteria contained in NUREG-0654, including the means for providing prompt notification to the public, staffing for
\\
emergencies, and an upgraded meteorological program.
The comprehensive emergency response plan for fixed nuclear facilities currently being developed by the Arizona Division November l98l "III.A.1.1-3 Amendment 2
PVNGS LLIR Services is expected to address the emergency planning criteria contained in NUREG-0654.
(3)
Conduct Exercise Prior to fuel loading of Unit 1,. an emergency response exercise will be performed.
The Arizona Division of Emergency Services will be invited to participate and major elements of both the PVNGS Emergency Plan and the state emergency response plan for fixed nuclear facilities will be tested.

alternate TSC's, and offsite Emergency Operations Facility (EOF).
Additional capabilities exist to view this display at selected locations.
Supplemental information displayed will be rain meteorological data, numerical outputs, etc.

The center 1
shall be habitable to the same degree as the control room for postulated accident conditions.
The licensee shall revise his emergency plans asnecessary to incorporate th'e role and location of the TSC.
Records that pertain to the as-built conditions and layout of structures,
- systems, and components shall be readily available to'ersonnel in the TSC.
An operational support center (OSC) shall be established separate from the control room and other emergency response facilities as a place where operations support personnel can assemble and report in an emergency situation to receive instructions from the operating staff.
Communications shall be provided between the

PVNGS LLIR PVNGS Evaluation A.
0 erational Su ort, Center OSC An area separate from the unit control rooms has been desig-nated as the PVNGS onsite Operational Support Center (OSC).
This is an assembly area of approximately 600 sg. ft. where plant operations support personnel will report in an emergency situation for further orders or assignment.
The OSC is located in each unit at Elevation 140'-0" of the Auxiliary Building, adjacen't to the main access corridor into the access control area (see figures III;A.1.2-1 and III.A.l.2-2).
The OSC has communication with the control room and the onsite Technical Support Center (TSC).
The Emergency Plan will reflect the existence of the OSC and will establish the methods and lines of communication and management.
B.
Onsite TSC and Satellite TSCs An onsite TSC and the satellite TSC for Palo Verde Nuclear Generating Station have been established and will be fully operational prior to fuel load.
The TSC is an underground structure of approximately 10,000 sg. ft. of area located within the site protected area adjacent to the main entry into the plant protected area (see figures III.A.1.2-1 and III.A.1.2-3).
The TSC provides a work area for supervisory and technical personnel from Arizona Public S'ervice Company and the NRC. It has communications with the.control room other response centers.
'Satellite TSCs have'een established adjacent to the control room in each unit to facilitate face to face communi-cations between control room personnel and support personnel.
Amendment 1-III.A.1.2-2 August 1981
PVNGS LLIR The satellite TSC has the same display capabilities as the main TSC (see figures III.A.1.2-1 and III.A.1.2-2).
An. analysis will be performed to determine equipment to be incorporated into the TSC to monitor and display the status of the affected unit.
Display of data at the TSC will be in accordance with NUREG 0696.
The TSC will be habitable to permit occupancy following a loss of coolant accident.
Monitoring equipment will be provided for direct and airborne radioactive contaminants to provide warning if radiation levels, in the TSC are reaching dangerous levels.
The TSC will have permanently installed radiation monitoring and filtered ventilation systems.
/he nonredundant systems in conjunction with building shielding will ensure that the com-bined doses from airborne radioactivity and direct radiation meet GDC 19.
As-built drawings and other appropriate records will'e available in readily retrievable form at the site and will be accessible to the TSC.
The Palo Verde Nuclear Generating Station Emergency Plan will be revised to describe the TSC and its function.
C.
Emer enc -0 erations Facilit EOF An Emergency Operations Facility (EOF) for PVNGS has been established and will be fully operational prior to PVNGS Unit 1 operating license.
This facility is located outside of the protected area and occupies approximately 6000 sg. ft. of the basement floor in the Administration Annex Building (see figures III.A.1.2-1 and III.A.1.2-4).
The EOF provides space
, for operations personnel in support of the TSC.
