The implementation will take place on July 1, 1996. Attached is Revision No. 24 to the Emergency Plan for Susquehanna SES Units 1 and 2 which incorporates the changes associated with the EOF move (approved by the NRC staff) and other organizational and administrative changes that do not decrease the effectiveness of the Emergency Plan.
The only noticeable effect will be to those offsite agencies who would report to the new EOF location during an emergency. For all others the change will be unnoticeable. Phone numbers will be transferred and remain the same.
Ifyou have any comments or questions, please contact Ms. Cynthia A. Smith at (717) 542-3233.

4.0: SCOPE"AND CONTENTS";.
SSES includes two boiling water reactor electrical generating units. The station is located in Salem Township, Luzerne County, in east central Pennsylvania, about five miles northeast of Berwick, Pennsylvania (See Figure 4.1), This Emergency Plan applies to the operation of Unit 1 and Unit 2.
4,1 COPE This Plan provides guidance for both on-site and oft'-site emergency situations. It ranges in scope from relatively minor events and occurrences involving small releases of radioactive material, up to and including a major nuclear emergency having significant off site radiological consequences.
This Plan, together with the state, county, and municipal radiological emergency response plans, provides detailed guidance and direction for taking emergency measures by the NERO to ensure the health and safety of the public living within the 10-mile EPZ of SSES. Additional guidance is provided in state and county plans for ingestion pathway preventive measures out to 50 miles (See Figure 4.2).
Additional guidance on specific emergency actions for non-radiological releases of hazardous materials can be found in two other emergency plans: the SSES Preparedness, Prevention, and Contingency Plan and the SSES Hazardous Material Emergency OF-Site Response Plan.
4~CONTENT 4 2.1 l ificati n This Plan provides for a graded response for distinct classifications of emergency conditions, action within those classifications, and criteria for escalation to another classification. This classification system is also used by PEMA, DER/BRP, LCEMA AND CEMA. This system is covered in Section 5.0.
4.2.2 r anization Control The PP&L organization for control of emergencies begins with the on-shift station personnel and contains provisions for augmentation and extension to include other station personnel, PP&L corporate personnel, and outside emergency response organizations.
The total emergency program includes the support of state, federal and local emergency organizations. Detailed provisions are made for implementing protective measures against direct radiation exposure for the public within a radius of at least ten miles aom the SSES. Additional preventive measures may be taken beyond that distance to preclude ingestion pathway exposures.
Specific agreements are also made with local ofF-site support organizations to provide fire fighting, medical, law enforcement, and trafBc control services.
Rev. 22, 04/95 4-1
State, County and Federal agencies have lead responsibilities specifically related to this Plan.
Organizational control is covered in Section 6.0.
4.2.3 Emer enc Measures The mechanisms through which this Plan provides for the proper response to emergency conditions at SSES include identification of the event, initial and ongoing assessment, and initial and ongoing emergency actions. Emergency actions include classification of event, completion of notifications, activation of onsite and offsite NERO, requests for offsite assistance, implementing onsite protective actions, recommending offsite protective actions, and activation of the restoration organization. These mechanisms are discussed in Section 7.0.
4 2 4 Emer en Facilities Emergency facilities and equipment are provided to ensure the capabilities for prompt, efficient assessment and control of situations over the entire spectrum of probable and postulated emergency conditions. The facilities and associated equipment and their emergency functions are described in Section 8.0.
425Em r en Trainin A concept of in-depth preparedness is employed regarding the SSES emergency program. This concept is emphasized in the training program and in preparedness drills and exercises. Personnel are trained to provide an in-depth response capability for required actions in an emergency situation. Section 9.0 includes the means to achieve and maintain preparedness and to ensure maintenance of an effective emergency program.
Rev. 22, 04/95 4-2
'.- ..6.0'RGANIZATIONALCONTROL-'OF EMERGENCIES PP&L's Emergency Plan is based upon a four phase approach to accident response and mitigation.
Phase I- Immediate Res on (Reference Figure 6.3 and Table 6.1). Phase I consists of identification of the emergency condition, initiation of prompt corrective action and initiation of prompt notification to local, state and federal agencies as well as appropriate members of PP&L's NERO. This initial phase is implemented by the on-shift organization. The on-shift organization has been staffed and trained to be capable of both safely operating the unit and quickly and effectively responding to an emergency condition. Initially, the Shift Supervisor, the highest ranking management individual on-shift, will assume the role of ED.
The Shift Supervisor, as ED:
a) Classifies the condition.
b) Initiates corrective actions and coordinates emergency management activities.
c) Designates a communications coordinator to notify off-site agencies and initiate call-in of selected personnel.
d) Notifies plant personnel over the PA system for accountability and/or evacuation.
e) Designates an OSC Coordinator who organizes and directs in-plant emergency team functions.
off f) Notifies the Vice President-Nuclear Operations or his designated alternate, informs him of the situation, and requests relief if appropriate. For conditions under an Unusual Event the Shift Supervisor is likely to remain as ED through termination of the condition, due to probable short duration or low severity of the event:
g) Ensures that on-site emergency response individuals and groups are notified, using the PA system or direct communications. Depending on the nature and severity of the condition, TSC staf6ng may be called out.
h) Ensures that initial dose projections are done and makes resulting recommendations regarding oF-site protective actions.
i) Ensures that off-duty station personnel are notified to assist as necessary with emergency activities. These notifications are made, via the radio paging system or by telephone backup, to individuals designated for dut availability status to fill key emergency response positions. Those key positions are identified in Sections 6.2 and 6.3. Other off-duty personnel are called in as required.
Rev. 22, 04/95 6-1
Upon activation of Phase II, additional personnel are available, and control and dissemination of in-plant teams shifts from the OSC to the TSC.
Phase II - Activation of On-Site NERO - (Reference Figure 6.3 and Table 6.2) Upon notification by the on-shift organization, the VP-Nuclear Operations or his designated alternate, reports to the site to assume the role of ED. Support coordinators and staffs in areas of technical assessment, radiological assessment and operational coordination also report to the site. These individuals form the nucleus of the ED's Team and activate the TSC. The TSC is fully functional within 30 to 60 minutes of initial notification. As the Vice President-Nuclear Operations and his support coordinators arrive, they are briefed by the Shift Supervisor and then, in turn, assume responsibility from the Shift Supervisor for their particular areas of expertise. Emergency management activities, including communications, are under the control of the Plant Superintendent or his designated alternate; dose projection and assessment activities are directed by the Radiation Protection Coordinator; technical expertise is directed by the Tech Support Coordinator, the Operations Coordinator oversees Operations activities and the Damage Control
. Team Coordinator oversees in-plant damage control actions. The TSC takes over all emergency management and support activities from the on-shift organization, freeing them to devote their efforts towards establishing and maintaining the plant in a safe, stable condition.
Pha III-A iv i n of ff-sit NER - (Reference Figures 6.2a, 6.2b, 6.4, 6.5 and Table 6.2).
This organization staffs the Emergency Operations Facility, General Office Engineering Support Center, and Media Operations Facility to provide in-depth technical and off-site radiological assessment.
The Emergency Operations Facility is activated automatically at a Site Area Emergency, but can be activated earlier at the discretion of the Emergency Director or Recovery Manager. Upon activation of the Emergency Operations Facility, personnel shall report to the EOF and be prepared for full functional operation within one hour.
Functional operation will include:
~ Management of overall emergency response
~ Coordination of radiological and environmental assessment
~ Determination of recommended protective actions
~ Coordination of emergency response activities with Federal, State, local county and municipal agencies Site based EOF personnel will be notified and report to the EOF at an ALERT classification to prepare the facility should activation become necessary. The EOF is initially staffed by Site personnel at an Alert classification. Upon activation, General Of5ce personnel will be notified and report to the EOF as soon as reasonably possible.
NOTE: Site based personnel are capable of fully activating the Emergency Operations Facility.
Rev. 22, 04/95 6-2
The General Office Engineering Support Center is also staffed by personnel from the General OfBce. It is activated within one hour of notification, directed by the Engineering Support Manager, interfacing with the TSC and EOF. The EOF and GOESC, upon activation, will relieve the Emergency Director and the on-site organization of external responsibilities, allowing them to
,<<devote their entire efforts to in-plant activities.
Pha e IV - Restoration - This phase leads ultimately to the return to service of the unit. The organizational and philosophical concepts that are utilized during this phase are highly dependent upon the nature of the emergency. The restoration phase does not begin until there is complete assurance that the plant is in a stable shutdown condition and that there are no inadvertent or unplanned significant release of radioactivity to the environment.
6.1 N RMAL OPERATIN R ANIZATION
, The normal Operating Organization during working hours is illustrated in Figure 6.1. Minimum
. shift response during oF-hours is as follows:
1 Shift Supervisor (SRO) 1 Unit Supervisor (SRO) 1 Unit Supervisor (RO)

responsibilities to the Recovery Manager. The responsibility and authority of the ED are set forth in Appendix E.
The ED cannot relinquish any of the above responsibilities until the anival of and assumption of responsibilities by the Recovery Manager at the EOF. At that time, he may relinquish any of the above responsibilities ~exce those related to maintaining the Unit in a safe shutdown condition with adequate core cooling and no uncontrolled radioactive material releases.
If the ED cannot perform this function during the emergency, he will be succeeded by the Operations Coordinator until another qualified Emergency Director arrives to assume this responsibility.
Functional responsibilities of the ED include:
a) Immediately upon notification of an existing or potential emergency, report to the Control Room and initiate assessment activities, including classification of the emergency and dose projections ifappropriate.
b) Unilaterally implement the immediate on-site corrective and protective actions to bring the incident under control and mitigate its effects.
c) Assure that appropriate notifications and recommendations to off-site organizations are made within 15 minutes.

~ Operation of DER/BRP EOC.
Initially, SSES notifies PEMA, who, in turn, notifies DER/BRP. DER/BRP calls back to SSES to obtain radiological and plant condition information and establishes a communication link with SSES via CTN. Ifthe emergency warrants, DER/BRP responds to the EOF.
The primary method of notification to PEMA is via the Centrex Telephone Network (CTN).
CTN communications between SSES and DER/BRP are used for transmitting radiological and technical information/recommendations.
643 Federal A encies As detailed in the Federal Radiological Emergency, Response Plan (FRERP), the Federal government maintains extensive capabilities to assist states and licensees in responding to radiological emergencies. The ED, and upon EOF activation, the RM are authorized to request Federal assistance. Such requests should be coordinated with PEMA and/or DER/BRP.
N~R - designated Lead Federal Agency (LFA) under the FRERP.
The primary method of notification to the NRC is via the Emergency Notification System (ENS).
Upon notification of an emergency classification, the NRC will enter one of several response modes based on the severity of the event. Response modes include:
Normal (Increased Regional Monitoring)
Standby Initial Activation Expanded Activation In the Normal and Standby modes, NRC site presence is provided by the Resident Inspectors who typically observe activity in the Control Room and TSC. On Initial Activation, a site team will be dispatched with 15-25 individuals that can arrive at the site within several hours. Response assignments are primarily at the EOF, with a few individuals located at the MOC, TSC, Control Room and OSC. Ifconditions warrant, the NRC can go to Expanded Activation, where the NRC Lead for the response is shHted from NRC Headquarters Operations Center to the NRC Leader of the Site Response Team. Assigned locations are similar to the initial site team.
~DE - provides radiological monitoring and assessment assistance.'he primary method of notification to DOE is by telephone, although assistance is typically requested through the Lead Federal Agency (NRC) or through the State (DER/BRP). Initial DOE response is by a Radiological Assistance Program (RAP) team dispatched from the DOE Rev. 22, 04/95 6-16
Brookhaven Area OKce. This team of 4-6 people can arrive within eight hours and would operate primarily out of the EOF.
Ifthe situation necessitates additional technical assistance, DOE can set up and staff a Federal Radiological Monitoring and Assessment Center (FIMAC) in the vicinity of SSES. A FRMAC, which draws DOE resources and personnel from its Nevada Operations OfBce, can be operational within about 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />. The location of such a center would be selected based on actual radiological deposition patterns. The Federal FRMAC team is initially managed by DOE, with personnel also provided by NRC, EPA, USDA, HHS, and other agencies. The State and PP&L would assign personnel to the FRMAC to coordinate monitoring activity. As many as 200 people could be assigned to a fully functioning FRMAC.
FEMA - responsible for coordinating all Non-technical Federal response.
Ifthe emergency situation has warranted implementation of the Federal Plan (FRERP), FEMA will set up and staff a Federal Response Center (FRC) in the vicinity of SSES. The location of such a center. would be selected based on current needs and conditions. Access to all Federal non-technical assistance is through the FRC where representatives of participating agencies are based. As many as 100 people could be assigned to a fully functioning FRC.
her Federal A ncie In addition to NRC, DOE and FEMA, 14 other Federal agencies are available to provide assistance under the Federal Plan (FRERP). The extent of participation depends on the nature and magnitude of the event. A full listing of these agencies and description of their missions is found in the Federal Plan (FRERP).
Additional information on available resources can be found in NUREG-1442/ FEMA-REP-17, "Post-Emergency Response Resources Guide."
in Inf rma i n enter The Federal Plan (FRERP) provides for each participating agency to be represented at a Joint Information Center, along with the State and the facility licensee. For Susquehanna, it is expected that these parties will agree to utilize PP&L's MOC to fulfill this on-scene Joint Information Center role.
R ore Av' F dr Re one A. Lodging and Food Service - Lodging and food service for personnel operating from the FRlVfAC, FRC and JIC are available from local commercial resources in the Wilkes-Barre, Hazleton, and Bloomsburg areas.

6~6T QN The PP&L NERO continues to provide appropriate emergency response functions until such time as the emergency has been terminated or the PP&L Corporate Management Committee (CMC) has approved the implementation of a long-range restoration organization. Termination from an emergency condition is through joint evaluation by the organizations involved. In the case of a severe emergency involving o6-'site consequences, this would include the Recovery Manager,
. DER/BRP, and NRC. The Sr. Vice President-Nuclear requests that the CMC establish a restoration organization when the following guidelines have been met:
~ In-plant systems are stable, adequate core cooling established and contingency systems and plans available.
~ In-plant radiation levels are stable or are decreasing with time.
~ Releases of radioactive material to the environment are under control or have ceased.
~ Any fire, flooding or similar emergency conditions are under control or have ceased.
Although planning for restoration varies according to the emergency, a long-term restoration organization that is general in nature has been defined. The restoration organization is a project-type organization with their major activities conducted from the EOF. This organization is
'depicted in Figure 6.6 and major responsibilities are defined below.
~ Rest ra ion Mana r - A designated officer or senior manager from PP&L qualified to manage SSES restoration operations.
~ Plant rati ns M a er - A designated manager from PP&L qualified to control plant operations including security.
~ Technical Su ort Mana er - A designated manager from PP&L qualified to manage a technical group.
~ f Mana er Radiolo 'cal ontrol and Waste Mana ement - A designated manager qualified to manage the radioactive waste and radiological control aspects.
~ n ructi n Mana r - A designated manager qualified to coordinate the activities of PP&L, NSSS supplier and construction forces on proposed plant modifications or other construction support.
Rev. 22, 04/95 6-18
~ Adviso u ort Function - Advisory support consists of senior representatives of the NSSS supplier, the NRC, and special consultants.
~ Schedulin lannin Mana er - A designated manager to coordinate plans and schedules for the Restoration Manager.
~ Administration and Lo istics Mana er - A designated manager who is responsible for providing administrative, logistic, communications and personnel support.
~ Pu lic Information Mana er - A designated manager qualified to manage public relations activities.
During restoration operations, the radiation exposure limits of 10CFR20 apply. Compliance with those limits are the responsibility of the Restoration Manager via the applicable Health Physics organization.
At the time of declaring that an emergency has entered the restoration phase, the Restoration Manager is responsible for providing notification to all applicable agencies.
Restoration actions that plan for, or may result in, radioactive release are evaluated by the Restoration Manager as far in advance of the event as is possible. Such events and data are reported to the appropriate off-site emergency response organizations and agencies prior to initiating release.

4.0 SCOPE AND-CONTENTS SSES includes two boiling water reactor electrical generating units. The station is located in Salem Township, Luzerne County, in east central Pennsylvania, about five miles northeast of Berwick, Pennsylvania (See Figure 4.1). This Emergency Plan applies to the operation of Unit 1 and Unit 2.
This Plan provides guidance for both on-site and off-site emergency situations. It ranges in scope from relatively minor events and occurrences involving small releases of radioactive material, up to and including a major. nuclear emergency having significant off-site radiological consequences. This Plan, together with the state, county, and municipal radiological emergency response plans, provides detailed guidance and direction for taking emergency measures by the NERO to ensure the health and safety of the public living within the 10-mile EPZ of SSES.
Additional guidance is provided in state and county plans for ingestion pathway preventive measures out to 50 miles (See Figure 4.2).
Additional guidance on specific emergency actions for non-radiological releases of hazardous materials can be found in two other emergency plans: the SSES Preparedness, Prevention, and Contingency Plan and the SSES Hazardous Material Emergency Off-Site Response Plan.
This Plan provides for a graded response for distinct classifications of emergency conditions, action within those classifications, and criteria for escalation to another classification. This classification system is also used by PEMA, DEP/BRP, LCEMA AND CCDES. This system is covered in Section 5.0.
The PP&L organization for control of emergencies begins with the on-shift station personnel and contains provisions for augmentation and extension to include other station personnel, PP&L corporate personnel, and outside emergency response organizations.
The total emergency program includes the support of state, federal and local emergency organizations. Detailed provisions are made for implementing protective measures against direct radiation exposure for the public within a radius of at least ten miles from the SSES. Additiorial preventive measures may be taken beyond that distance to preclude ingestion pathway exposures.
Specific agreements are also made with local off-site support organizations to provide fire fighting, medical, law enforcement, and traffic control services.
Rev. 24, 06/96 4-1
State, County and Federal agencies have lead responsibilities specifically related to this Plan.
Organizational control is covered in Section 6.0.
The mechanisms through which this Plan provides for the proper response to emergency conditions at SSES include identification of the event, initial and ongoing assessment, and initial and ongoing emergency actions. Emergency actions include classification of event, completion of notifications, activation of onsite and offsite NERO, requests for offsite assistance, implementing onsite protective actions, recommending offsite protective actions, and activation of the restoration organization. These mechanisms are discussed in Section 7.0.
Emergency facilities and equipment are provided to ensure the capabilities for prompt, efficient assessment and control of situations over the entire spectrum of probable and postulated emergency conditions. The facilities and associated equipment and their emergency functions are described in Section 8.0.
A concept of in-depth preparedness is employed regarding the SSES emergency program. This concept is emphasized in the training program and in preparedness drills and exercises.
Personnel are trained to provide an in-depth response capability for required actions in an emergency situation. Section 9.0 includes the means to achieve and maintain preparedness and to ensure maintenance of an effective emergency program.
Rev. 24, 06/96 4-2
6.0 ORGANIZATIONALCONTROI OF EMERGENCIES PP&L's Emergency Plan is based upon a four phase approach to accident response and mitigation.
(Reference Figure 6.3 and Table 6.1).,: Phase I consists of identification of. the emergency condition, initiation of prompt corrective action and initiation of prompt notification to local, state and federal agencies as well as appropriate members of PP&L's NERO. This initial phase is implemented by the on-shift organization. The on-shift organization has been staffed and trained to be capable of both safely operating the unit and quickly and effectively responding to an emergency condition. Initially, the Shift Supervisor, the highest ranking management individual on-shift, will assume the role of ED.
The Shift Supervisor, as ED:
a) Classifies the condition.
b) Initiates corrective'actions and coordinates emergency management activities.
c) Designates a communications coordinator to notify off-site agencies and initiate call-in of selected personnel.
d) Notifies plant personnel over the PA system for accountability and/or evacuation.
e) Designates an OSC Coordinator who organizes and directs in-plant emergency team functions.
Notifies the Plant Manager-Susquehanna SES or his designated alternate, informs him of if the situation, and requests relief appropriate. For conditions under an Unusual Event the Shift Supervisor is likely to remain as ED through termination of the condition, due to P robable short duration or low severit y of the event.
g) Ensures that on-site emergency response individuals and groups are notified, using the PA system or direct communications. Depending on the nature and severity of the condition, TSC staffing may be called out.
h) Ensures that initial dose projections are done and makes resulting recommendations regarding off-site protective actions.
(
i) Ensures that off-duty station personnel are notified to assist as necessary with emergency activities. These notifications are made, via the radio paging system or by telephone backup, to individuals designated for off-duty availability status to fill key emergency response positions. Those key positions are identified in Sections 6.2 and 6.3. Other off-duty personnel are called in as required.
Rev. 24, 06/96 6-1
Upon activation of Phase II, additional personnel are available, and control and dissemination of in-plant teams shifts from the OSC to the TSC.
- (Reference Figure 6.3 and Table 6.2) Upon notification by the on-shift organization, the Plant Manager-Susquehanna SES or his designated alternate, reports to the site to assume the role of ED. Support coordinators and staffs in areas of technical assessment, radiological assessment and operational coordination also report to the site. These individuals form the nucleus of the ED's Team and activate the TSC. The TSC is fully functional within 30 to 60 minutes of initial notification. As the Plant Manager-Susquehanna SES and his support coordinators arrive, they are briefed by the Shift Supervisor and then, in turn, assume responsibility from the, Shift Supervisor for their particular areas of expertise. Emergency management activities, including communications, are under the control of the Emergency Director or his designated alternate; dose projection and assessment activities are directed by the Radiation Protection Coordinator; technical expertise is directed by the Tech Support Coordinator, the Operations Coordinator oversees Operations activities and the Damage Control Team Coordinator oversees in-plant damage control actions. The TSC takes over all emergency management and support activities from the on-shift organization, freeing tom to devote their efforts towards establishing and maintaining the plant in a safe, stable condition.
V - (Reference Figures 6.2, 6.4, and Table 6.2). This organization staffs the Emergency Operations Facility to provide in-depth technical and off-site radiological assessment.
The Emergency Operations Facility is" activated automatically at an Alert or higher emergency classification., Upon activation of the Emergency Operations Facility, personnel shall report to the EOF and be prepared to take over management of the emergency from the TSC at a Site Area Emergency or higher classification. When the initial emergency classification is a Site Area Emergency or higher, the EOF will take over the management of the emergency within 90 minutes of the declaration of a Site Area Emergency. At the discr'etion of the Emergency Director or Recovery Manager, the EOF can be activated and take over management of the emergency earlier.
Functional operation will include:
~ Management of overall emergency response
~ Coordination of radiological and environmental assessment
~ Determination of recommended protective actions
~ Coordination of emergency response activities with Federal, State, local county and municipal agencies
- This phase leads ultimately to the return to service of the unit. The organizational and philosophical concepts that are utilized during this phase are highly dependent upon the nature of the emergency. The restoration phase does not begin until there is complete t
Rev. 24, 06/96 6-2
assurance that the plant is in a stable shutdown condition and that there are no inadvertent or unplanned significant release of radioactivity to the environment.
... The normal Operating Organization during working hours is illustrated in Figure 6.1. Minimum shift response during off-hours is as follows:
1 Shift Supervisor (SRO) 1 Unit Supervisor (SRO) 1 Assistant Unit Supervisor (RO)
. 2* Licensed Operators (RO)
I Shift Technical Advisor 3* Non-Licensed Ope'rators 1* Health Physics Technician 1 Chemistry Technician 1 Security Shift Supervisor 1 Assistant Security Shift Supervisor 10 Security Officers per unit The Shift Supervisor assumes the role of ED until he is relieved by the Plant Manager-Susquehanna SES, or his designated alternate. Typical alternate is the Manager - Nuclear Maintenance. When the TSC is activated, and the Shift Supervisor is relieved, the Shift Supervisor reassumes responsibility for plant operating functions in the control room.
The Shift Supervisor ensures that the Plant Manager-Susquehanna SES, or designated alternate, is promptly notified of an emergency condition.
The ED assumes full responsibility for the implementation and administration of the Emergency Plan and is responsible for assuring continuity of resources until he relinquishes those responsibilities to the Recovery Manager. The responsibility and authority of the ED are set forth in Appendix E.
The ED cannot relinquish any of the above responsibilities until the arrival of and assumption of responsibilities by the Recovery Manager at the EOF. At that time, he may relinquish any of the above responsibilities gzggg those related to maintaining the Unit in a safe shutdown condition with adequate core cooling and no uncontrolled radioactive material releases.
Rev. 24, 06/96 6-3
If the ED cannot perform this function during the emergency, he will be succeeded by the Operations Coordinator until another qualified Emergency Director arrives to assume this responsibility.
Functional responsibilities of the ED include:
a) Immediately upon notification of an existing or potential emergency, report to the Control Room and initiate assessment activities, including classification of the if emergency and dose projections appropriate.
b) Unilaterally implement the immediate on-site corrective and protective actions to bring the incident under control and mitigate its effects.
c) Assure that appropriate notifications and recommendations to off-site organizations are made within 15, minutes.
d) Appoint Emergency Coordinators for assistance with current and continuing emergency control, but assume those responsibilities until the positions are filled.
e) Augment the on-site NERO with duty roster personnel and other available station staff members as dictated by the emergency condition.
')
Continue reassessment of emergency status and make appropriate recommendations including protective actions to off-site organizations.
g) Ensure that information released is accurate and released through the proper channels.
h) Activate Emergency Facilities described in Section 8.0.

Organizations that may be contacted for assistance during an emergency condition at SSES are listed in Attachment A, Letters of Agreement. Methods available for contacting these
, support groups include direct telephone communications with individual organizations, use of the 911 telephone system for emergency services, and message relay through LCEMA or CCDES.
t An emergency at SSES may require additional technical services and equipment. This type of assistance may be obtained from the organizations listed in Table 6.3.
Rev. 24, 06/96 6-12
The ED, and upon EOF activation, the RM, ensures that off-site authorities are notified and apprised of emergency events at SSES.
Notification of an Unusual Ev'en/ is primarily to ensure that the authorities are cognizant of the details of events which may arouse public concern and initiate inquiries by news media or members of the public.
LCEMA and CCDES provide for:
~ Planning and coordination with municipal, State, and Federal authorities.
~ Initial response to notification by SSES.
~ Alert and warning of local populations within the 10 mile EPZ.
~ Evacuation and other protective measures for local populations within the 10 mile EPZ.
~ Emergency services.
~ Situation analysis.
~ Operation of county EOC.
LCEMA and CCDES also provide direction for the local organizations which are assigned action or support responsibilities under their plans.
The primary method of notification to LCEMA and CCDES is via the Centrex Telephone Network (CTN). Secondary methods are radio and regular telephone.
PEMA provides for:
Issuance of planning guidance.
~ Coordination of State response to nuclear incidents.
~ Coordination of multi-county Emergency Response Planning.
~ Provision for emergency public information.

Initially, SSES notifies PEMA, who, in turn, notifies DEP/BRP. DEP/BRP calls back to SSES to obtain radiological and plant condition information and establishes a communication link with SSES via CTN. Ifthe emergency warrants, DEP/BRP responds to the EOF.
The primary method of notification to PEMA is via the Centrex Telephone Network (CTN).
CTN communications between SSES and DEP/BRP are used for transmitting radiological and technical information/recommendations.
As detailed in the Federal Radiological Emergency Response Plan (FRERP), the Federal government maintains extensive capabilities to assist states and licensees in responding to radiological emergencies. The ED, and upon EOF activation, the RM are authorized to request Federal assistance. Such requests should be coordinated with PEMA and/or DEP/BRP.
5EQ - designated Lead Federal Agency (LFA) under the FRERP.
The primary method of notification to the NRC is via the Emergency Notification System (ENS).
Upon notification of an emergency classification, the NRC will enter one of several response modes based on the severity of the event. Response modes include:
Normal (Increased Regional Monitoring)
Standby Initial Activation Expanded Activation In the Normal and Standby modes, NRC site presence is provided by the Resident Inspectors who typically observe activity in the Control Room and TSC. On Initial Activation, a site team will be dispatched with 15-25 individuals that can arrive at the site within several hours.
Rev. 24, 06/96 6-14
Response assignments are primarily at the EOF, with a few individuals located at the MOC, TSC,'Control Room and OSC. Ifconditions warrant, the NRC can go to Expanded Activation, where the NRC Lead for the response is shifted from NRC Headquarters Operations Center to the NRC Leader of the Site Response Team. Assigned locations are similar to the initial site team.
DQE - provides radiological monitoring and assessment assistance.
,~
The primary method of notification to DOE is by telephone, although assistance is typically requested through the Lead Federal Agency (NRC) or through the State (DEP/BRP). Initial DOE response is by a Radiological Assistance Program (RAP) team dispatched from the DOE Brookhaven Area Office. This team of 4-6 people can arrive within eight hours and would operate primarily out of the EOF.
1 Ifthe situation necessitates additional technical assistance, DOE can set up and staff a Federal Radiological Monitoring and Assessment Center (FRMAC) in the vicinity of SSES. A FRMAC, which draws DOE resources and personnel from its Nevada Operations Office, can be operational within about 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />. The location of such a center would be selected based on actual radiological deposition patterns. The Federal FRMAC team is initially managed by DOE, with personnel also provided by NRC, EPA, USDA, HHS, and other agencies. The State and PP8cL would assign personnel to the FRMAC to coordinate monitoring activity. As many as 200 people could be assigned to a fully functiorripg FRMAC.
EEhf5 - responsible for coordinating all Non-technical Federal response, If the emergency situation has warranted implementation of the Federal Plan (FRERP), FEMA will set up and staff a Federal Response Center (FRC) in the vicinity of SSES. The location of such a center would be selected based on current needs and conditions. Access to all Federal
~
non-technical assistance is through the FRC where representatives of participating agencies are based. As many as 100 people could be assigned to a fully functioning FRC.
yP "pg In addition to NRC, DOE, and FEMA, l4 other Federal agencies are available to provide assistance under the Federal Plan (FRERP). The extent of participation depends on the nature and magnitude of the event. A full listing of these agencies and description of their missions is found in the Federal Plan (FRERP).
Additional information on available resources can be found in NUREG-1442/ FEMA-REP-17, "Post-Emergency Response Resources Guide."
The Federal Plan (FRERP) provides for each participating agency to be represented at a Joint Information Center, along with the State and the facility licensee. For Susquehanna, it is Rev. 24, 06/96 6-15
expected that these parties will agree to utilize PP&L's MOC to fulfill this on-scene Joint Information Center role.
A. Lodging and Food Service - Lodging and food service for personnel operating from the FRMAC, FRC, and JIC are available from local commercial resources in the Wilkes-Barre, Hazleton, and Bloomsburg areas.
B. Communications - Capability provided by. DOE and FEMA, supplemented by standard telephone service to be established when facilities are selected, are adequate for the FRMAC and FRC.
C. Security - Security arrangements for the FRMAC and FRC can be made by the DOE and
~
FEMA, respectively, with local resources.
D. Transportation - Federal response personnel will provide their own transportation by renting commercially available vehicles.

The PP&L NERO continues to provide appropriate emergency response functions until such time as the emergency has been terminated or the PP&L Corporate Leadership Council (CLC) has approved the implementation of a long-range restoration organization. Termination from an emergency condition is through joint evaluation by the organizations involved. In the case of a severe emergency involving off-site consequences, this would include the Recovery Manager, DEP/BRP, and NRC. The Sr. Vice President-Nuclear requests that the PP&L Corporate Leadership Council establish a restoration organization when the following guidelines have been met:
~ In-plant systems are stable, adequate core cooling established and contingency systems and plans available.
~ In-plant radiation levels are stable or are decreasing with time.
~ Releases of radioactive material to the environment are under control or have ceased.
~ Any fire, flooding or similar emergency conditions are under control or have ceased.
Although planning for restoration varies according to the emergency, a long-term restoration organization that is general in nature has been defined. The restoration organization is a project-type organization with their major activities conducted from the EOF. This organization is depicted in Figure 6.6 and major responsibilities are defined below.

-.1 ASSESSMENT ACTIONS FOR ALLEMERGENCY CLA IFICATIONS Provisions are made for assessment through the course of an emergency to ensure effective coordination, direction and upgrading of emergency activities in a timely manner. The assessment actions are described in detail in EP-PSs.
Continuous assessment of the status of plant systems and radiological conditions is provided by plant instrumentation and is supplemented by routine surveillance functions. The occurrence of an Unusual Event is recognized by instrument alarms or indications, surveillance results or other observation of an off-normal condition by an individual at the station.
Assessment actions are described below. For an Unusual Event, one or more of the actions listed below will be initiated; for higher emergency classifications, actions are continued, intensified, and increased in frequency.
~ Perform surveillance of in-plant instrumentation.
~ Initial and continued observation of off-normal conditions.
~ Obtain assistance from off-duty personnel and/or off-site support groups.
~ Perform dose calculation activities. Correlate with field team data.
~ Deploy field radiological monitoring teams to perform direct radiation measurements and air sampling.
~ Perform sampling and analysis of environmental media.
~ Deploy on-site damage control teams.
~ Perform reactor coolant sampling and analysis.
7.1.1 Off-Sit Dose alculati ns The ED is responsible for initiating off-site dose calculation and assessment activities. These activities are performed"by health physics technicians who report to the control room. Data from the vent effluent monitors and the meteorological towers serve as inputs for the off-site dose calculation methods.
The ED is responsible for calling in personnel to the TSC to perform off-site dose assessment activities, The Radiation Protection Coordinator reports to the TSC within 30-60 minutes of notification. Subsequently, the off-site dose assessment activities at the TSC are turned over to the Interim Radiation Support Manager at the EOF. The Interim Radiation Support Manager Rev. 22, 04/95 7-1
reports to the EOF within one hour of notification. Upon arrival at the EOF the Radiation Support Manager relieves the Interim Radiation, Support Manager of ofF-site radiological responsibilities.
Field monitoring teams are directed to selected monitoring location(s) by the Radiation Protection Coordinator, Interim Radiation Support Manager, or Radiation Support Manager via radio communication. The results of the teams'urveys are used to update projected doses and dose calculational assumptions. This process is reiterated through the duration of the release in order to maintain an updated status of dose rates and accumulated dose within the pathway of the plume.
The initial field monitoring team(s) are staFed as required within 30-60 minutes. Additional team(s) are dispatched within one to four hours.-
Each on-site and near site monitoring team is supplied with a survey meter and low volume air sampler. TLDs are located at 19 sites around the station to provide early information on accumulated ofF-site doses. Two sets of TLDs are provided at each of these sites; one set for very early collection/exchange and readout and one set for dose accumulation during the period of release.
The ED and Recovery Manager recommend appropriate protective actions to PEMA Operations Center, Harrisburg, base'd upon the results of the oF-site dose assessment activities.
7.1.1.1 Meteor lo The SSES on-site meteorological measurement system is based upon an on-site 300'rimary meteorological tower located to the southeast of the station. The primary tower provides measurements of wind speed, wind direction, and wind variability at its 10 and 60-meter levels, temperature di6erential between the 10 and 60-meter levels, and ambient temperature and dew point at the 10-meter level. Precipitation is measured at ground level. In case of primary tower failure, a 10-meter on-site backup meteorological tower will provide measurements of wind speed, wind direction, and wind variability.
The meteorological systems are instrumented to provide continuous data to the control room and to the PCS for utilization in the TSC and EOF. Data which enter the PCS are viewable through various display formats and are also transmitted to the NRC via ERDS. Digital dataloggers are present at each of the two SSES meteorological towers. All data are stored locally and are available for acquisition by interrogation across telephone lines. Primary and backup tower strip chart recorders are located in the control room.
Additional meteorological information for emergency dose assessment purposes is available as needed from the National Weather Service Station at the Wilkes-Barre Scranton Airport at Avoca, about 30 miles northeast of the Susquehanna site, and the Philadelphia Forecast office of the National Weather Service.
Rev. 22, 04/95 7-2
7.1.1.2 Health Ph sics Considerations In the event of an unplanned radioactive release from either the reactor building vents, the turbine building vents or the standby gas treatment vent; gross noble gas, I-131, and gross particulate readings are available from the System Particulate Iodine Noble Gas (SPING) vent monitors.
The following Health Physics considerations are taken into account: selection of the accident type to closely approximate the isotopic mix and average gamma energies of the release occurring, radioactive decay from time of reactor shutdown, plume decay-in-transit and iodine and particulate depletion due to precipitation.
7.1.13 D s Cal ulati nsF rAi rneRelease A dose calculation model is used to make current, site specific estimates and predictions of atmospheric e6luent transport "and diffusion during and immediately following an accidental airborne radioactivity release. The purpose of the prediction is to provide an input to the assessment of the consequences of accidental radioactive releases to the atmosphere and to aid in the implementation of emergency response decisions.
The dose calculation model used is a fast running, time-dependent, variable trajectory plume segment "B" model with the following capabilities:
~
NOTE: A class "B" model is a numerical model which represents the actual spatial and temporal variations of plume distribution.
~ Computes atmospheric dispersion at the site based on atmospheric stability as a function of site specific terrain conditions with 15-minute upgrades of source term and meteorological conditions.
~ Provides estimates of deposition and relative concentration of radioactivity within the plume exposure and ingestion EPZs for the duration of the release.
~ Incorporated in the calculations is wet and dry deposition which enables dose estimates from three pathways - plume, ground shine, and inhalation.
The dose program complies with the "Manual of Protective Action Guides and Protective Actions for Nuclear Incidents," (EPA-400), 'adopting the dose calculation methodology in ICRP 426/30.
The following calculational options are available:
~ TEDE (Total Effective Dose Equivalent) integrated doses consisting of the sum of external doses from plume shine, 50 year committed effective dose equivalent from inhalation (CEDE), and 4 day ground shine doses.
~ TEDE dose rates for field team management.
~ Fifty year thyroid committed dose (CDE), from inhalation of radioactive materials.
Rev. 22, 04/95 7-3
~ Population dose (person rem) out to 50 miles.
~ Summary print of projected doses for each of four projection times.
~ Integrated ground dose for projected times specified by the user.
The dose calculation program is a stand alone program running on PCs located in the TSC and EOF.
7114 I.i i R l ase al 1 ti n Estimates of downstream river water concentrations are made by employing efHuent sample analysis or discharge monitor data, discharge flow rates and river elevation readings. The river elevation is used to estimate the travel time to the point of interest. The calculated degree of
,. mixing, together with the discharge monitor data and the discharge flow rates are used to calculate downstream concentrations.
7.2 ORRE TIVEA TI N Detailed operating procedures and plant procedures are utilized by the plant operating personnel to assist them in recognizing emergency events and taking the corrective actions necessary to place the plant in a safe condition. Table 7.1 shows personnel available to respond to an emergency. Additionally, EP-PSs describe subsequent and supplemental corrective actions for the scope of potential situations within each of the emergency classifications. These procedures are designed to guide the actions of the personnel to correct or mitigate the condition as early and as near to the source of the problem as feasible.
Some essential corrective actions may involve the risk of emergency exposure to NERO personnel. Such actions could involve preventing the release of large quantities of radioactive material, reducing damage to major equipment or life saving actions. Table 7.2 specifies the limits for emergency exposure and other relevant criteria to be considered. The ED is responsible for all corrective actions taken to mitigate the consequences of the accident on-site.
73 PR TE TIVE A TI N Protective actions are implemented to prevent or mitigate consequences to individuals during or after a radiological incident. Protective actions within the SSES site boundary are the responsibility of the ED, but may include assistance by oF-site organizations. Protective actions outside the SSES site boundary are primarily the responsibility of State and local emergency organizations, but may include coordination of activities, dissemination of appropriate data, and recommendations by the ED or Recovery Manager. Protective action recommendations are outlined in Table 7.3.
Rev. 22, 04/95 7-4
7,3.1'n-Site Protective Actions Th'e primary protective measure for on-site personnel in an emergency is prompt evacuation from areas which may be affected by significant radiation, contamination or airborne radioactivity.
Respiratory protective equipment and clothing are provided at the plant and in the various emergency equipment kits for personnel who may be required to perform emergency activities.
Control of in-plant contamination is in accordance with SSES Health Physics procedures. In the event of radioactive contamination outside fenced security areas, but within the exclusion area, access to such areas is controlled by PPEcL with assistance from the PSP.
7.3,1.1 Local Ar Evacuati n This category refers to evacuation &om one area to another area within the same building. The initiation of a Local Area Evacuation results from ARM or CAM alarm(s) sounding in the same area within a building or &om observed conditions such as smoke or toxic gas, which may indicate a possible habitability problem. The initial response for individuals is to evacuate to area of the building, notify the plant Control Room of the conditions, and await further an'naffected instruction. The ED assesses the situation, activates appropriate procedures to rectify the condition and informs the personnel when to return to their respective work area via the PA system.
7.3.1.2 Radi lo 'call ntrolled Area Evacuation The initiation of a Radiologically Controlled Area Evacuation results from ARM, CAM, or other applicable monitor alarms, (i.e., fire alarms). Notification for personnel to proceed with a Radiologically Controlled Area Evacuation is announced over the plant PA system. The initial mandatory response by individuals is evacuation to an unaffected area. In this case, however, the nearest such area may not be in the same building, and multiple ARM, CAM, or fire alarms are probable.
The decision to implement a Radiologically Controlled Area Evacuation is the responsibility of the ED. Factors to be considered include the apparent levels of radiation and/or airborne radioactivity involved and the exposure to personnel that would result &om evacuating to Assembly Areas. In the event of multiple fire alarms within the Radiologically Controlled Area, with no potentiai hazard to personnel, such as workers in unaffected areas, the ED may deem it prudent not to evacuate such personnel and allow work to continue.
~ 7 3 1 3 Securi and Accountabili Accountability of on-site personnel during an emergency is accomplished through the use of the physical security system and procedures. The physical security system clearly establishes who is within the protected area. Personnel are summoned to accountability areas during an emergency via an alert signal transmitted over the PA system. The names of the personnel reporting in are compared to those logged through the security system in order to ensure total accountability.
Rev. 22, 04/95 7-5
7.3.1.4 Site Evacuation Site Evacuation requires that all individuals within the SSES site, except for Control Room, operations personnel and others with specific emergency assignments, leave the site. If off-site assembly is required by the ED, personnel will go to the Remote Assembly Area. The Primary Remote Assembly Area is the Susquehanna Energy Information Center (NE Sector), as shown in Figure 8.1. The alternate Remote Assembly Area is the EOF (WSW Sector). Security personnel and assembly area leaders will coordinate assembly and accountability at Remote Assembly Areas.
Implementation of a Site Evacuation is the responsibility of the ED. That decision is based on the severity of the incident, the likelihood of escalation, and the radiation and airborne radioactivity levels throughout the station. Notification is made via the PA system.
Accountability is accomplished in passage through the security gate and supervisory checks at the assembly area. Personnel and vehicle contamination surveys are performed at the Remote Assembly Area, using portable survey instruments.
732 ff i Pr iv A in The responsibility for actions to protect off-site individuals rests with the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
DER/BRP is responsible for evaluating information obtained from SSES and other sources and recommending appropriate off-site protective actions to PEMA. Such recommendations include:
~ Shelter for affected populations
~ Evacuation of affected populations
~ Administration of thyroid prophylaxis
~ Control of contaminated agricultural products T he principal off-site local coordinating agency is LCEMA. Since the area and population inside the ten-mile EPZ are partially within Columbia County, parallel emergency response functions are provided by CEMA. Upon notification by PEMA of a situation which may require protective actions for off-site populations, LCEMA and CEMA initiate appropriate actions. IfPEMA has lost communication or is otherwise unavailable, it is possible that the ED or Recovery Manager may contact LCEMA and CEMA directly with protective action recommendations, If time permits, LCEMA and CEMA obtain a review and verification by PEMA of recommendations made by the ED or Recovery Manager.
'LCEMAand CEMA protective actions include:
~ Prompt alerting of the population within ten miles of the SSES through the 'use of the Public Notification System described in Section 8.0.
~ Transmission of specific instructions to potentially affected populations via the Emergency Broadcast System.
~ Assistance for evacuation of the population within the ten-mile EPZ.
Rev. 22, 04/95 7-6
Reception and mass care centers for evacuated individuals.
Appendix G includes the estimated times to evacuate all or segments of the population from the 10-mile EPZ, identifies potential problem areas and provides contingencies for dealing with adverse conditions. It was utilized in the development of detailed evacuation plans by PEMA, LCEMA and CEMA.
7 4 AID TO AFFECTED PER ONNEL 7.4.1 Emer enc Ex osure All reasonable measures are taken to maintain the radiation exposure of emergency personnel who provide rescue, first aid, decontamination, ambulance, or medical treatment services within applicable limits specified in 10CFR20. Table 7.2 summarizes the emergency exposure criteria for entry or re-entry into areas for purposes of undertaking protective or corrective actions. Methods
. and conditions for permitting volunteers to receive emergency radiation exposures are described in EP-PSs, and provide for expeditious decisions with consideration to known and reasonable balance of associated risks.
7.4 2 Dec ntamina i n an First Aid Personnel contamination in emergency situations is controlled to the extent feasible by the normal methods of using protective clothing and surveying for contamination following the removal of such clothing. Personnel decontamination areas are available in-plant and at the EOF for emergency use. Decontamination efforts involving significant amounts of contamination are performed under the direction of Health Physics personnel.
In the'vent of Site Evacuation, Health Physics personnel conduct personnel surveys of individuals as they are evacuated. If personnel decontamination is required, EOF facilities are available to support the decontamination efforts of Health Physics personnel.
\
At least two persons who are qualified in first aid methods are on-site at all times. First aid to injured personnel can be performed in conjunction with any necessary decontamination methods.
However, if immediate treatment of the injury is vital, that treatment takes precedence over decontamination.'his philosophy also extends to oF-site emergency assistance involving radioactive contamination. For that purpose, measures are established to ensure timely off-site medical treatment.
7.4.3 Medical Trans ortati n and Treatment Arrangements and agreements have been made for the transportation and treatment of patients from SSES, who may have injuries complicated with radioactive contamination or who may have been involved in a radiation incident.

7.0- EMERGENCY MEASURES Provisions are made for assessment through the course of an emergency to ensure effective coordination, direction and upgrading of emergency activities in a timely manner. 'The assessment actions are described in detail in EP-PSs.
Continuous assessment of the status of plant systems and radiological conditions is provided by plant instrumentation and is supplemented by routine surveillance functions. The occurrence of an Unusual Event is recognized by instrument alarms or indications, surveillance results, or other observation of an off-normal condition by an individual at the station.
Assessment actions are described below. For an Unusual Event, one or more of the actions listed below will be initiated; for higher emergency classifications, actions are continued, intensified, and increased in frequency.
~ Perform surveillance, of in-plant instrumentation.
~ Initial and continued observation of off-normal conditions.
~ Obtain assistance from off-duty personnel and/or off-site support groups.
~ Perform dose calculation activities. Correlate with field team data.
~ Deploy field radiological monitoring teams to perform direct radiation measurements and air sampling.
~ Perform sampling and analysis of environmental media.
~ Deploy on-site damage control teams.
~ .Perform reactor coolant sampling and analysis.
The ED is responsible for initiating off-site dose calculation and assessment activities. These activities are performed by health physics technicians who report to the control room. Data from the vent eQluent monitors and the meteorological towers serve as inputs for the off-site dose calculation methods.
The ED is responsible for calling in personnel to the TSC to perform off-site dose assessment activities. The Radiation Protection Coordinator reports to the TSC within 30-60 minutes of notification. t Rev. 24, 06/96 7-1
Field monitoring teams are directed to selected monitoring location(s) by the Radiation Protection Coordinator, Dose Assessment Supervisor, Dose Assessment Staffer, or Field Team Director via radio communication. The results of the teams'urveys are used to update projected doses and dose calculational assumptions. This process is reiterated through the duration of the release in order to maintain an updated status of dose rates and accumulated dose within the pathway of the plume.
The initial field monitoring team(s) are staffed as required within 30-60 minutes. Additional team(s) are dispatched within one to four hours.
Each radiological monitoring team is supplied with a survey meter and low volume air sampler.
TLDs are located at 19 sites around the station to provide early information on accumulated off-site doses. Two sets of TLDs are provided at each of these sites; one set for very early collection/exchange and readout and one set for dose accumulation during the period of release.
The ED and Recovery Manager recommend appropriate protective actions to PEMA Operations Center, Harrisburg, based upon the results of the off-site dose assessment activities.
The SSES on-site meteorological measurement system is based upon an 'on-site 300'rimary meteorological tower located to the east southeast of the station. The primary tower provides measurements of wind speed, wind direction, and wind variability at its 10 and 60-meter levels, temperature differential between the 10 and 60-meter levels, and ambient temperature and dew point at the 10-meter level. Precipitation is measured at ground level. In case of primary tower failure, a 10-meter on-site backup meteorological tower will provide measurements of wind speed, wind direction, and wind variability.
The meteorological systems are instrumented to provide continuous data to the control room and to the Unit One PCS and Unit Two PICSY for utilization in the TSC and EOF. Data which enter the Unit One PCS and Unit Two PICSY are viewable through various display formats and are also transmitted to the NRC via ERDS. Digital dataloggers are present at all of the SSES meteorological towers. All data is stored locally and is available for acquisition by interrogation across telephone lines. Primary and backup tower strip chart recorders are located in the control room.
Site specific, meteorological information for emergency dose assessment purposes can be obtained by contacting either the SSES Contract Meteorologist or the National Weather Service Station using the phone numbers provided in the SSES Emergency Telephone Directory.
In the event of'an unplanned radioactive release from either the reactor building vents, the turbine building vents or the standby gas treatment vent; gross noble gas, I-131, and gross Rev. 24, 06/96 7-2
particulate readings are available from the System Particulate Iodine Noble Gas (SPING) vent monitors.
The following Health Physics considerations are taken into account: selection of the accident type to closely approximate the isotopic mix and average gamma energies of the release occurring, radioactive decay from time of reactor shutdown, plume decay-in-transit and iodine and particulate depletion due to precipitation.
A dose calculation model is used to make current, site specific estimates and predictions of atmospheric effiuent transport and diffusion during and immediately following an accidental airborne radioactivity release. The purpose of the prediction is to provide an input to the assessment of the consequences of accidental radioactive releases to the atmosphere and to aid in the implementation of emergency response decisions.
The dose calculation model used is a fast running, time-dependent, variable trajectory plume segment "B" model with the following capabilities:
NOTE: A class "B" model is a numerical model which represents the actual spatial and temporal variations of plume distribution.
~ Computes atmospheric dispersion at the site based on atmospheric stability as a function of site specific terrain conditions with 15-minute upgrades of source term and meteorological conditions.
~ Provides estimates of deposition and relative concentration of radioactivity within the plume exposure and ingestion EPZs for the duration of the release.
~ Incorporated in the calculations is wet and dry deposition which enables dose estimates from three pathways - plume, ground shine, and'inhalation.
The dose program complies with the "Manual of Protective Action Guides and Protective Actions for Nuclear Incidents," (EPA-400), adopting the dose calculation methodology in ICRP 026/30. The following calculational options are available:
~ TEDE (Total Effective Dose Equivalent) integrated doses consisting of the sum of external doses from plume shine, 50 year committed effective dose equivalent from inhalation (CEDE), and 4 day ground shine doses.
~ TEDE dose rates for field team management.
~ Fifty year thyroid committed dose (CDE), from inhalation of radioactive materials.
I
~ Population dose (person rem) out to 50 miles.
Rev. 24, 06/96 7-3
~ Summary print of projected doses for each of four projection times.
~ Integrated ground dose for projected times specified by the user.
The dose calculation program is a stand alone program running on PCs located in the TSC and EOF.
Estimates of downstream river water concentrations are made by employing effluent sample analysis or discharge monitor data, discharge flow rates and river elevation readings. The river elevation is used to estimate the travel time to the point of interest. The calculated degree of mixing, together with the discharge monitor data and the discharge flow rates are used to calculate downstream concentrations.
Detailed operating procedures and plant procedures are utilized by the plant operating personnel to assist them in recognizing emergency events and taking the corrective actions necessary to place the plant'n a safe condition. Table 7.1 shows personnel available to respond to an emergency. Additionally, EP-PSs describe subsequent and supplemental corrective actions for the scope of potential situations within each of the emergency classifications. These procedures are designed to guide the actions of the personnel to correct or mitigate the condition as early and as near to the source of the problem as feasible.
Some essential corrective actions may involve the risk of emergency exposure to NERO personnel. Such actions could involve preventing the release of large quantities of radioactive material, reducing damage to major equipment or life saving actions. Table 7.2 specifies the limits for emergency exposure and other relevant criteria to be considered. The ED is responsible for all corrective actions taken to mitigate the consequences of the accident on-site.
Protective actions are implemented to prevent or mitigate consequences to individuals during or after a radiological incident. Protective actions within the SSES site boundary are the responsibility of the ED, but may include assistance by off-site organizations. Protective actions outside the SSES site boundary are primarily the responsibility of State and local, emergency organizations, but may include coordination of activities, dissemination of appropriate data, and recommendations by the ED or Recovery Manager. Protective action recommendations are outlined in Table 7.3.

S.O'. EMERGENCY FACILITIKSAND EQUIPMENT .
8,1 ON-SITE EMERGENCY CENTERS 8.1 I Station Control Room The Station Control Room is the primary location for the initial assessment and coordination of corrective actions for all emergency conditions. The Control Room is equipped with the display and controls for all critical plant systems, radiological and meteorological monitoring systems,, and all station communication systems. Reference Appendix D.
OfF-site emergency functions initially served by the Control Room are transferred to the TSC or EOF for a Site Area or a General Emergency as deemed appropriate by the ED. The primary consideration is to ensure that the number of personnel involved with the emergency in the Control Room shall not impair the safe and orderly shutdown of the reactor or the operation of plant safety systems.
8,1,2 0 erations Su ort Center The OSC is the primary on-site assembly area for operations support team personnel during an emergency. It occupies 340 square feet adjacent to the Control Room on El. 729'-1" of the control structure.
The OSC is utilized initially as the central location for the assembly, accountability, and dispatching of on-shift emergency team personnel required to perform such functions as: fire fighting, first aid, search and rescue, damage control, and on-site radiation monitoring. If and when the TSC is activated, all non-operations support team personnel assemble and are accounted for at their individual assembly areas. TSC personnel assess the need for emergency team personnel and based on this assessment, dispatch team personnel from their assembly area or via call-in to perform TSC team functions. Long term retention of additional personnel to support in-plant team functions will be in the Maintenance and I&C assembly areas. These areas will be monitored continuously for habitability. Ifthese areas become uninhabitable, retained personnel will be directed to alternate holding areas. Control and dispatch of these teams is the responsibility of the TSC Radioman. The OSC continues to manage operations support personnel, even after the TSC is activated.
Equipment required for these teams to perform their functions, as outlined in Appendix D is stored and maintained in the Control Room, Technical Support Center and Health Physics access control points.
During normal plant operations, this area serves as an operations stafF work area for shift changeover purposes as well as shift work assignment area. The Non-Emergency use of the OSC does not degrade its primary purpose.
Rev. 22, 04/95 8-1
8 1.2.1 Habitabilit 8.1.2.1.1 Allowable Post-Accident Radiation Doses OSC personnel are protected from radiological hazards, including direct shine and airborne activities for postulated accident conditions to the same degree as Control Room personnel.
Applicable criteria are specified in General Design Criterion 19, Standard Review Plan 6.4, and NUREG-0737, Item II.B.2.
8.1.2.1 2 Postulated Post Accident Radiation Doses The radiation dose to personnel occupying the OSC is the same as the Control Room personnel.
The doses from controlling accidents are summarized in Chapter 15.0 of the FSAR.
8 1 2 1.3 Radiation M nitorin To ensure adequate radiological protection of the OSC personnel, a commercial grade monitor alarms on high gross gamma radiation dose rates.
8.1.2.2 HVA The OSC HVAC system is a part of the Control Room HVAC system which is described in FSAR Section 9.4.1.
8.1 2 3 Shieldin Shielding requirement for the OSC is the same as for the Control Room for total dose to occupants from direct shine and airborne. Exposure does not exceed 5 Rem whole body for the duration of the accident. This is in accordance with General Design Criterion 19, USNRC Standard Review Plan 6.4, and NUREG-0737, Item II.B.2. Duration of occupancy and method of analysis is the same as that used for the Control Room.
8124 Occu ant Accomm d ion No toilet facilities are provided in the OSC. Facilities are available in the Control Room and at grade level of the control structure for washing and toilet accommodations.
8125 Comm nic ti n The OSC communication system includes priority access voice links-hotlines, the plant PA system and telephone lines tied through the plant switchboard.
8.1 2 5.1 Tel h n The normal telephone service for the OSC uses the plant ETN and CTN systems. Both systems have the capability to reach on- and off-site locations.
Rev. 22, 04/95 8-2
8.1.2.5.2 Hotlines Priority access voice communication links with automatic signaling is provided in the OSC. The OSC hotline connects with the TSC or the Control Room.
8.1.2.5.3 Public Address S stem" The PA system is part of the plant PA system. The system provides two-way communications at handset stations. Each station may originate and receive communications by switching to either a page channel or to one of five non-interfering party line channels.
8 1 3 Technical u rt enter The TSC is a controlled access area which provides working space and facilities for 25 NERO personnel. These personnel provide guidance to plant operations personnel for management of emergency conditions and accident mitigation.

Rev. 22, 04/95 8-7
8.2.2.3 Habitabilit 8.2.2.3.1 Post Accident Radiation Shieldin
'he EOF is designed to provide sufficient shielding to reduce by a factor of more than 5 the gamma radiation shine from external post accident sources, including both direct shine from the reactor building and from airborne radioactivity outside the EOF which is released from the
- reactor building. The walls and ceilings are designed to provide a minimum thickness of nine inches of concrete. Based on the attenuation of 0.7 MeV gamma radiation, this concrete provides a protection factor of greater than 5. In addition, all entrances, exits and penetrations have a labyrinth design which prevents direct shine from outside sources into any part of the building which is normally occupied without passing through at least nine inches of concrete.
8.2.2.3.2 HVAC 8.2.2.3.2 1 Desi n Basis This system provides for control of environmental conditions in the EOF. It is designed to accomplish the following objectives:
a) Maintain a slightly positive pressure above atmosphere inside the EOF, in order to inhibit air leakage into the building. This is not applicable for operation during isolation mode.
b) Provide radiation protection from airborne fission products. The system may be manually transferred to one of two emergency modes. One mode provides for air circulation through HEPA Filters with intake from the outside; the other routes air through HEPA Filters with 100% recirculation.
c) Maintain airflow from areas of lesser to areas of greater potential radioactive contamination.
The equipment and the system components are not designed to meet seismic category I requirements or qualified as Engineered Safety Features. All HVAC equipment except HEPA filters are commercial grade quality. HEPA filters are suitable for nuclear application.

89 INF RMATI N Y TEM 8.9.1 Saf P et r Dis la em The purpose of the SPDS is to provide a continuous indication of the safety status of the plant.
SPDS data aids the control room, and TSC staff in rapidly detecting abnormal operating
.conditions, by enabling the staff to achieve a timely status assessment without surveying the entire Control Room.
SPDS includes sensors and signals, data acquisition equipment, data preparation equipment, and a data display device. SPDS consists of three separate sofbvare/hardware systems: separate systems serving the control room and the TSC for each unit, and a third serving the EOF. Data for Unit 1 and Unit 2 is collected separately by dedicated Data Acquisition Systems.
Rev. 22, 04/95 8-15
8.9.1.1 Data In The SPDS I
The SSES emergency procedures were developed from the BWR Emergency Procedure Guidelines (EPGs). The EPGs were developed by GE and BWR Owner's Group to comply with Task Action Plan Item I.C.1 item 3 as clarified by NUTMEG-0737. The Owner's Group performed a comprehensive study to identify a minimum set of EPGs which provide'coverage of plant safety functions and FSAR Chapter 15 events. Table 8-1 presents a list of parameters which have been derived from the plant emergency procedures and form the safety parameter set for the SPDS.
Where available, inputs are taken from redundant sensors. This allows SPDS to validate critical parameters on a real-time basis. The accuracy of the data acquired is consistent with accuracy needed to perform the various emergency functions. The time resolution of each sensor signal depends on the potential transient behavior of the variable being measured, and the scan rate for each variable is determined accordingly. One sample per second is the fastest that any given variable is scanned.
All signal interfaces to safety systems utilize isolation devices to prevent interference, degradation, or damage to any element of those safety systems as specified in 10 CFR 50 General Design Criteria 22, 23 and 24, and in IEEE Standard 279-1971 Sec. 4.7.
8912 D Ac ui iti n Because the SPDS contains a small computer dedicated to performing data acquisition, data processing, and data display functions solely for the SPDS, data scan and monitoring of the safety parameters is independently achieved.
Data acquisition hardware is designed to achieve maximum scanning communication availability.
Expandability criteria is also factored into the data acquisition design.
8.9.1 3 Da a Pre aration Once the data has been acquired, it is prepared and then output to the SPDS display. Data from the data acquisition system is stored in memory and processed before it is presented to personnel.
Sofbvare provides for data acquisition, preparation, and presentation. The data base includes raw data converted to engineering units, validated data, and calculated data, which is used for trends or time derivatives.
8 9 1 4 Data Presentati n The SPDS display is responsive to transient conditions and is sufBcient to indicate the plant status. A simple primary display, using human factors engineering criteria, gives an overall system status, and includes as a minimum the following parameters: Reactivity control, reactor core cooling and heat removal from primary system, reactor coolant system integrity, radioactivity control and containment integrity. The display is easily accessible and visible. An audible notification is included in the Control Room to alert personnel of an unsafe operating condition.
Rev. 22, 04/95 8-16
8.9 1 5. Availabilit This system has an availability in the 99% area above cold shutdown, and 80% area during cold shutdown. Availability calculations are performed on a regular basis.
The availability of the system is enhanced by a comprehensive maintenance program and with built-in facilities. Power supplies for SPDS are shown on Figure 8.5.
8,9.2 Plant om ut r s em The PCS is used for emergency data configuration for the following reasons:
~ It contains CRT graphic and trending capabilities.
~ It provides for historical data recording and retrieval.
~ It has flexibilityto permit interfacing to additional IJO equipment.
~ It has a proven high degree of reliability.
~ It is capable of scanning and processing all of the data needed in the EOF and TSC that is not provided in SPDS.
~ It is located in a secure area within the control structure.
8 92 1 Data Ac uisition The data acquisition employed by the PCS contains most parameters required by the ERF. The ERF data acquired by the PCS undergoes the normal validity and error checking applied to all PCS inputs. Isolation is applied to all safety-related signals.
8.9.22 D aPre aration Display formats needed by the ERF are generated and stored within the PCS using the existing format generators. The system to manage the data is designed such that input/output processing overhead is minimized.
Proven system and application software has been developed which performs data display and system security. The data base includes raw data, data converted to engineering units, data checked on a real-time basis, and various types of calculated data. The system determines the data that is displayed and the available output format.
User interaction with the system is also determined by the sofbvare. Although identical, the VO processes for data display in the TSC function independently of those for EOF.
8.9 2 3 Data Presentati n Two CRTs tied to the PCS provide for display functions in the TSC. Procedures and methods for keyboard call-up and error indication of TSC functions are identical to those in use in the control room. There are also two CRT's in the EOF which are functionally identical to those in the TSC.
Rev. 22, 04/95 8-17
Data is presented in formats which are easy to understand and interpret. Variables not in a normal condition are presented with an indication of that condition. Alarms are represented by using the same color coding techniques as the control room computer. Output formats are designed according to human factors engineering criteria, and include pattern and coding techniques.
8 9.2.4 Availabilit A minimum system availability of 97% can be guaranteed, based upon analytical calculations.
89.3 Rem te Data Anal sis S tern The RDAS is used to provide meteorological and vent data for the following reasons:
~ Flexible architecture to allow efficient interfacing to other data sources
~ Proven high degree of reliability
~ Located in EOF computer area

8.0 EMERGENCY FACILITIES AND EQUIPMENT The Station Control Room is the primary location for the initial assessment and coordination of corrective actions for all emergency conditions. The Control Room is equipped with the display and controls for all critical plant systems, radiological and meteorological monitoring systems, and all station communication systems. Reference Appendix D.
Off-site emergency functions initially served by the Control Room are transferred to the. TSC or EOF for a Site Area or a General Emergency as deemed appropriate by the ED. The primary consideration is to ensure that the number of personnel involved with the emergency in the Control Room shall not impair the safe and orderly shutdown of the reactor or the operation of plant safety systems.
The OSC is the primary on-site assembly area for operations support team personnel during an emergency. It occupies 340 square feet adjacent to the Control Room on El. 729'-1" of the control structure.
The OSC is utilized initially as the central location for the assembly, accountability, and dispatching of on-shift emergency team personnel required to perform such functions as: fire fighting, first aid, search and rescue, damage control, and on-site radiation monitoring. If and when the TSC is activated, all non-operations support team personnel assemble and are accounted for at their individual assembly areas. TSC personnel assess the need for emergency team personnel and based on this assessment, dispatch team personnel from their assembly area or via call-in to perform TSC team functions. Long term retention of additional personnel to support in-plant team functions will be in the Maintenance and IAC assembly areas. These areas will be monitored continuously for habitability. If these areas become uninhabitable, retained personnel will be directed to alternate holding areas. Control and dispatch of these teams is the responsibility of the TSC Radioman. The OSC continues to manage operations support personnel, even after the TSC is activated.
Equipment required for these teams to perform their functions, as outlined in Appendix D is stored and maintained in the Control Room, Technical Support Center and Health Physics access control points.
During normal plant operations, this area serves as an operations staff work area for shift changeover purposes as well as shift work assignment area. The Non-Emergency use of the OSC does not degrade its primary purpose.
Rev. 24, 06/96 8-1
OSC personnel are protected from radiological hazards, including direct shine and airborne activities for postulated accident conditions to the same degree as Control Room personnel.
Applicable criteria are specified in General Design Criterion 19, Standard Review Plan 6.4, and NUREG-0737, Item II.B.2.
The radiation dose to personnel occupying the OSC is the same as the Control Room personnel.
The doses from controlling accidents are summarized in Chapter 15.0 of the FSAR.
To ensure adequate radiological protection of the OSC personnel, a commercial grade monitor alarms on high gross gamma radiation dose rates.
The OSC HVAC system is a part of the Control Room HVAC system which is described in FSAR Section 9.4.1.
Shielding requirement for the OSC is the same as for the Control Room for total dose to occupants from direct shine and airborne. Exposure does not exceed 5 Rem whole body for the duration of the accident. This is in accordance with General Design Criterion 19, USNRC Standard Review Plan 6.4, and NUREG-0737, Item II.B.2. Duration of occupancy and method of analysis is the same as that used for the Control Room.
No toilet facilities are provided in the OSC. Facilities are available in the Control Room and at grade level of the control structure for washing and toilet accommodations.
The OSC communication system includes priority access voice links-hotlines, the plant PA system and telephone lines tied through the plant switchboard.
The normal telephone service for the OSC uses the plant ETN and CTN systems. Both systems have the capability to reach on- and off-site locations.
Rev. 24, 06/96 8-2
Priority access voice communication links with automatic signaling is provided in the OSC. The OSC hotline connects with the TSC or the Control Room.
The PA system is part of the plant PA system. The system provides two-way communications at handset stations. Each station may originate and receive communications by switching to either a page channel or to one of five non-interfering party line channels.
The TSC is a controlled access area which provides working space and facilities for 25 NERO personnel. These personnel provide guidance to plant operations personnel for management of emergency conditions and accident mitigation.
The TSC is located in the existing Control Room mezzanine above the Control Room at elevation 741'-I" of the control structure and occupies approximately 2500 square feet. The TSC is within approximately two minutes travel time of the Control Room by elevator or stairs.
The TSC facilities may be used for normal daily activities which do not degrade TSC emergency preparedness. The TSC provides office space for Operations and Technical personnel. The facilities may also be used as a research or reference area by other station personnel.
The TSC includes areas for work, conferencing (NRC Ec PP8cL), document control, and computer monitoring. Housed components are SPDS, UMC, PICSY SDS, video copier, RDAS (printer/terminal), and SPING monitor panel. (Reference Figure 8.2).

This is in accordance with General Design Criterion 19, USNRC Standard Review Plan 6.4, and NUREG-0737, Item II.B.2. Duration of occupancy and method of analysis is the same as for the control room.
No sleeping accommodations or toilet facilities are provided. Use of the plant's existing facilities at grade level of the control structure for washing and toilet accommodations is available. There is a unit kitchen with appliances and sink. Self-contained breathing apparatus are available.
The TSC communications system is comprised of three telephone networks (ETN, CTN, and back-FTS), VHF and UHF radios, and the plant PA system. They provide reliable primary and up communication links to emergency response facilities on- and off-site.
Rev. 24, 06/96 8-4
The TSC uses the CTN system as primary communications with the ETN system available at various locations and the FTS 2000 reserved for federal government agencies.
The TSC has a four-channel 450 MHz UHF and a two-channel 150 MHz VHF radio system with digital voice privacy capability. The VHF radio is an emergency backup for communication with LCEMA and CCDES, and to communicate with the field monitoring teams. The UHF radio provides primary and backup security, emergency, operational and maintenance communication links.
The system provides two-way communications at handset stations. Each station may originate and receive communication by switching to either a pager channel or to one of five non-interfacing party-line channels.
The TSC is part of the existing power block as described in Chapter 8.0 of the FSAR.
The TSC utilizes the same field sensors and signal conditioning equipment which is provided to monitor plant systems. TSC instrumentation is identical to the 'field instrumentation used to operate the plant. A detailed description of this instrumentation is provided in Chapter 7.0 of the FSAR.
The TSC includes human factors engineered man-machine capabilities to allow personnel to determine:
~ plant conditions during normal operation
~ plant steady-state conditions prior to an accident
~ transient conditions producing an initiating event
~ plant system dynamic behavior during an accident
~ projected behavior and effects of offsite airborne radioactivity releases.
The man-machine interface is provided by devices tied to the SPDS, PCS, PICSY, and RDAS in the TSC monitoring area: (Reference Figure 8.2).
a) Two CRTs housed in the SPDS console.
Rev. 24, 06I96 8-5
b) Two PCS UMCs which have graphic and parameter displays depicting the conditions of the plant systems.
c) Video copiers for hard copy output of SPDS, PICSY, and PCS data d) RDAS printer/terminal for display of meteorological and vent data.
The TSC contains up-to-date records and references for use during emergency conditions.
(Reference Appendix D). Records are updated and managed by the Susquehanna Records Management System (SRMS) utilizing Plant Administrative Procedures.
The TSC is located within a plant vital area and is subject to the vital area access controls as identified in FSAR Section 13.6.
For an Unusual Event, the Susquehanna Energy Information Center, located on U.S. Route 11, is utilized as the Media Operations Center. For other event classifications, the East Mountain Business Center, Plains Township, will be activated as the Media Operations Center.
The EOF is an emergency response facility which provides continuous management of PP&L activities during radiological emergencies which may have offsite impact.
The EOF is located on East Mountain Road in Plains Township, off PA Route 115 (five miles north of exit 36 of the Northeast Extension of the Pennsylvania Turnpike and one mile south of exit 47A of Interstate 81). As the EOF is located beyond 10 miles from the site, the NRC Commission approval was required prior to the relocation. This was granted April 17, 1996 (see REFERENCES, Section 3.19).
The non-emergency activities of the EOF are such that its main function is not degraded. The EOF provides office space for PP&L Marketing Department.
The EOF is a one-story, rectangular structure. The building was constructed using standard building codes.
Rev. 24, 06/96 8-6
Reference Figure 8.3.
a) Automatic wet pipe sprinklers on an ordinary hazard pipe schedule are provided throughout the building.
The EOF is classified as a structure, the failure of which would not result in release of significant radioactivity, and is not required for reactor shutdown. This structure is classified as Non-Category I.
The EOF is located outside the EPZ, therefore, no special habitability needs are required.
The EOF communications system is comprised of three telephone networks (ETN, CTN, and FTS), VHF and UHF radios, and a PA system. They provide a reliable primary and back-up communications network.
The EOF uses a combination of the CTN and ETN.systems with the FTS system available for federal governmental agencies.
The EOF has both a four-channel 450 MHz UHF and a two-channel 150 MHz VHF radio system.
The VHF system is used as an emergency backup to the telephone system and to communicate with the field monitoring teams. The UHF radio allows EOF personnel to monitor security, emergency, operational, and maintenance communication links.
Power is supplied to the EOF via two independent underground power lines which supply the industrial park complex.
Rev. 24, 06/96 8-7
The EOF includes human factors'engineered man-machine interface capabilities to allow personnel to:
~ access environmental conditions
~ coordinate radiological monitoring activities
~ recoinmend implementation of off-site emergency plans
~ monitor Emergency Re'sponse Data System The EOF contains up-to-date references and records. Documents are managed by DCS using plant administrative procedures.
EOF access during an emergency is limited to authorized personnel. Intrusion detection devices monitor the EOF during unoccupied periods.
Both LCEMA and CCDES have EOCs which meet or exceed the minimum Federal criteria for sufficient space, communications, warning systems, self-suFiciency in supplies and accommodations and radiological protection factor. Both counties maintain full-time employees, providing 24-hour per day coverage at their EOC, to coordinate emergency planning and evaluation. "CTN" telephone connections exist between SSES and each County EOC.
Location of the county EOCs:
~ Luzerne County Wilkes-'Barre, Pennsylvania
~ Columbia County Court House Bloomsburg, Pennsylvania The State EOC is located at the PEMA headquarters, in the Transportation Building, in Harrisbur'g. This center is equipped with a reliable communications system which includes "CTN" telephone connections between the EOC and SSES, and ties to all area and county EOCs.
During an emergency, representatives from appropriate State agencies will assemble at the State EOC to manage and support the emergency response activities. Facilities are also'vailable at the EOF.for PEMA personnel.
Rev. 24, 06/96 S-3
This on-site system, consisting of ARMs, CAMs, and process monitors, contributes to personnel protection, equipment monitoring and accident assessment by measuring and recording radiation levels and concentrations at selected locations throughout the station. Reference Appendix D.
Fire protection at SSES is provided by a complete network of fire suppression and extinguishing systems. These systems and associated fire alarms are activated by a variety of fire and smoke detection devices throughout the plant. Types of detectors include combustion product, smoke, thermal, and flame. For more detail, reference the SSES FSAR and Fire Protection Review Report.
Monitors are provided for detecting and recording natural phenomena events that could result in plant damage due to ground motion or structural vibration. Reference Appendix D.
This program establishes the pre-operational background levels, detects any gradual buildup of long-lived radionuclides, and verifies that operation of the plant has no detrimental eQect on the health and safety of the public or the environment. Reference Appendix D.
Reference Appendix D.
Protective features (Reference the SSES FSAR):
a) Adequate shielding by concrete walls.
b) CREOASS.
c) ARM system indications.
d) Emergency and essential lighting and power.
Rev. 24, 06/96 8-9
e) Basic protection equipment for emergency teams (Appendix D), and listings/locations of additional emergency supplies/equipment.
f) Communications systems.
Specific locations are designated for assembly and accountability of all station personnel. They are located on the basis of logical access routes and physical separation from likely areas of radiation and/or airborne radioactivity. Reference the EP-PSs.
Upon declaration of a Site Evacuation, the ED may send personnel to their homes or to Remote Assembly Areas. These areas are designated for assembly of personnel which can be used to augment the plant staff. Locations were selected on the basis of:
a) Space availability for all personnel who may be within the exclusion area at the time of an evacuation.
b) Assurance of a controlled area for contamination surveys and for possible establishment of decontamination stations.
A PNS consisting of sirens with ratings ranging from 107 dB to 125 dB exists within the ten-mile EPZ around SSES. Siren location was determined by a detailed study including field surveys, actual determination of average background noise level, and consideration of population distribution within the 10-mile EPZ.
Activation of the PNS is via radio control from either the LCEMA Emergency Operations Center or the PP&L Emergency Operations Facility and by telephone from the CCDES Emergency Operations Center. The Nuclear Emergency Alert signal is a steady 3-5 minute wail. Public response to this signal is to proceed indoors and tune their radio or television to the Emergency Alert System Network serving their local area for additional information.
Testing of the system takes place annually and includes verification of the system's ability to alert the general public. Reference Figure 8.6.
Two independent telecommunications networks exist to provide primary and backup telephone communications between ERFs and offsite agencies. These systems are the Centrex Telephone Network (CTN) and Electronic Tandem Network (ETN).
Rev. 24, 06/96 8-10
CTN extension locations include: Control Room, TSC, EOF, MOC, SOP, DEP/BRP, PEMA, (
LCEMA, and CCDES. This is the primary system for emergency communications.
A plant erne'rgency alarm system provides audible warning of emergency conditions to plant personnel. The system consists of a multi-tone generator, tone selector switch, area selector switch, and message tape recorder. The Emergency Alarm System is integral to the PA System and is powered via the Vital AC UPS. The Plant Emergency Alarm System is tested at least weekly.
A first aid treatment facility, equipped with normal industrial first aid supplies, is located on the first floor of the S&A Building. Standard first aid kits are at designated locations throughout the station. Inventories are performed regularly.
Damage control equipment consists of normal and special purpose tools and devices used for maintenance functions throughout the station. The ED has access to keys for maintenance tool cribs, shops and other locations where damage control equipment is stored. Inventories are performed regularly.
The purpose of the SPDS is to provide a continuous indication of the safety status of the plant.
SPDS data aids the control room, and TSC staff in rapidly detecting abnormal operating conditions, by enabling the. staff to achieve a timely status assessment without surveying the entire Control Room.
SPDS includes sensors, signals, data acquisition equipment, data preparation equipment, and data display devices. Data for Unit 1 and Unit 2 is collected separately by dedicated Data Acquisition Systems. Unit 1 data is available in the Control Room and TSC via SPDS. Unit 2 data is transmitted to the Unit 2 PICSY and is available on any PICSY SDS'located in the Control Room, TSC, EOF, MOC, General OQice, or Simulator. Unit 1 SPDS data will be installed on the PICSY SDS during the second quarter of 1998., This section will be revised after the installation of PICSY on Unit 1.
The SSES emergency procedures were developed from the BWR Emergency Procedure Guidelines (EPGs). The EPGs were developed by GE and BWR Owner's Group to comply with Task Action Plan Item I.C.1 item 3 as clarified by NUREG-0737. The Owner's Group performed Rev. 24, 06/96 8-11
a comprehensive study to identify a minimum set of EPGs which provide coverage of plant safety functions and FSAR Chapter 15 events. Table 8-1 presents a list of parameters which have been derived from the plant emergency procedures and form the safety parameter set for the SPDS.
Where available, inputs are taken from redundant sensors. This allows SPDS to validate critical parameters on a real-time basis. The accuracy of the data acquired is consistent with accuracy needed to perform the various emergency functions. The time resolution of each sensor signal depends on the potential transient behavior of the variable being measured, and the scan rate for each variable is determined accordingly. One sample per second is the fastest that any given variable is scanned.
All signal interfaces to safety systems utilize isolation devices to prevent interference, degradation, or damage to any element of those safety systems as specified in 10 CFR 50 General Design Criteria 22, 23 and 24, and in IEEE Standard 279-1971 Sec. 4.7.
Once the data has been acquired, it is prepared and then output to the SPDS display. Data from the data acquisition system is stored in memory and processed before it is presented to personnel.
Sofbvare provides for data acquisition, preparation, and presentation. The data base includes raw data converted to engineering units, validated data, and calculated data, which is used for trends or time derivatives.
The SPDS display is responsive to transient conditions and is sufficient to indicate the plant status. A simple primary display, using human factors engineering criteria, gives an overall system status, and includes as a minimum the following parameters: Reactivity control, reactor core cooling and heat removal &om primary system, reactor coolant system integrity, radioactivity control and containment integrity. The display is easily accessible and visible. An audible notification is included in the Control Room to alert personnel of an unsafe operating condition.
This system has an availability in the 99% area, above cold shutdown, and 80% area during cold shutdown. Availability calculations are performed on a regular basis.
The availability of the system is enhanced by a comprehensive maintenance program and with built-in facilities. Power supplies for SPDS are shown on Figure 8.5.
The PCS is used for Unit 1 emergency data configuration for the following reasons:
Rev. 24, 06/96 8-12
~ It contains CRT graphic and trending capabilities.
~ It provides for historical data recording and retrieval.
~ It has fiexibilityto permit interfacing to additional I/O equipment.
~ It has a proven high degree of reliability.
~ It is capable of scanning and processing all of the data needed in the EOF and TSC that is not provided in SPDS.
~ It is located in a secure area within the control structure.
The data acquisition employed by the Unit 1 PCS contains most parameters required by the ERF.
The ERF data acquired by the Unit 1 PCS undergoes the normal validity and error checking applied to all PCS inputs. Isolation is applied to all safety-related signals.
Display formats needed by the ERF are generated and stored within the PCS using the existing format generators. The system to manage the data is designed such that input/output processing overhead is minimized.
Proven system and application software has been developed which performs data display and system security. The data base includes raw data, data converted to engineering units, data checked on a real-time basis, and various types of calculated data. The system determines the data that is displayed and the available output format.
Two CRTs tied to the Unit 1 PCS provide for display functions in the TSC. Procedures and methods for keyboard call-up and error indication of TSC functions are identical to those in use in the control room.
Data is presented in formats which are easy to understand and interpret. Variables not in a normal condition are presented with an indication of that condition. Alarms are represented by using the same color coding techniques as the control room computer. Output formats are designed according to human factors engineering criteria, and include pattern and coding techniques.
A minimum system availability of 97% can be guaranteed, based upon analytical calculations.
The RDAS is used to provide Unit 1 meteorological and vent data for the following reasons:
~ Flexible architecture to allow efficient interfacing to other data sources Rev. 24, 06/96 8-13
~ Proven high degree of reliability
~ 'edundant computer system design
~ Duplicate system console and controls reside in PCS room in plant.
Unit 1 data is acquired over a fiber optic data link from the PCS. This includes the meteorological, mode switch parameters, and radiological release data. All data inputs and outputs are retained in historical files for archive or later recall and analysis.
The data can be printed in the TSC.
Based on previous system experience and two years of RDAS operational data, it is expected that the system should be able to achieve an availability of 98% or higher.
The purpose of ERDS is to transmit a limited set of Unit 1 plant performance parameters from the site to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission during an Alert or higher emergency classification.
Data required to support ERDS is acquired from Unit 1 plant process computer system data bases which include SPDS, PCS and vent monitor systems.
ERDS does not have any capability for local data presentation of the parameters being transmitted to the NRC beyond what already exists for the SPDS, PCS and RDAS computers.
Based on previous system experience, it is expected that the system should be able to achieve an availability of 98% or higher.
The PICSY is used for emergency data configuration for the following reasons:
~ It contains CRT graphic and trending capabilities.
~ It provides for historical data recording and retrieval.
Rev. 24, 06/96 8-14
~ It has fiexibilityto permit interfacing to additional I/O equipment and other sources of data.
~ Its design provides for a high degree of reliability.
~ It is capable of scanning and processing all of the data needed in the EOF'and TSC.
~ It is located in a secure area within the control structure.
~ It has a redundant system design.
~ The ERDS and SPDS functions are integrated into its design.
~ All of the PICSY data and functions are easily made available at locations remote from SSES.
Data is acquired from I/O hardware in the plant as well as over data interfaces to various other plant equipment. All data is checked for validity and errors before being displayed to the user.
Isolation is applied to all safety-related inputs. All data is archived. Both short term and long term data are available for retrieval at any PICSY SDS. Long term data is available for at least the previous fuel cycle.
Display formats needed by the ERF are generated and stored within the PCS using standard proven PICSY software. A configuration management software system is employed to track changes to all formats and the data base itself.
Proven system and application software has been developed which performs data display and system security. The data base includes raw data, data converted to engineering units, data checked on a real-time basis, and various types of calculated data.
User interaction from the PICSY SDS is independent from each station and controlled by multiple copies of the identical software.
Three SDSs will be available in the TSC for display of Unit 2 data. Procedures and methods for call-up and error indications of TSC function are identical to those used in the control room with one exception. Control Room CRTs are usually fitted with touch screens in lieu of track balls
'nd keyboards.
Data is presented in formats which are easy to understand and interpret. Variables not in a normal condition are presented with an indication of that condition. Alarms are represented by using the same color coding techniques as in the control room. Output formats are designed according to human factors engineering criteria, and include, pattern and coding techniques.
A minimum system availability of 99% or greater can be guaranteed, based on analytical calculations.
