H'.A;3:e ";II"A"::4"':;If"51~ The typical Nuclear Division organization for normal operation is shown in GAP-POL-01, Composition and Responsibility of the Nuclear Generation Organization. The attachment shows the typical reporting chain within the Nuclear organization. Personnel in certain categories, principally Operations, Chemistry, Radiation Protection work in shifts so that coverage is provided 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> per day. For certain station conditions, such as outages, testing, etc., personnel who do not normally work on shift may work other than normal hours to provide extended coverage. The typical shift crew available at each Unit during normal operation is (also see Note I): 1 Station Shift Supervisor (SSS) (has SRO) 1 Assistant Station Shift Supervisor (ASSS) (for Unit 2, has SRO) 1 Chief Shift Operator (CSO) (has RO) 1 Nuclear Operator E (has RO) 1 Nuclear AuxiliaryOperator C 1 AuxiliaryOperator B 5 Fire Brigade Personnel (Note 2) 1 Chemistry Technician 1 Radiation Protection Technician 1 Radwaste Operator 5+ Security Personnel NOTE 1: As defined in the Technical Specifications during normal ~oeration there is a minimum shift requirement of: - Unit 1: 1 Senior Licensed Operator 2 Licensed Operators 2 Non-licensed Operators 1 ASSS - Senior Licensed Operator 1 STA - Shift Technical Advisor ASSS may also fulfillSTA function ifrequired. 5-1 SEP Rev. 30 I' ~ ~ 1 - Unit2: 1 Station Shift Supervisor (SRO) 2 Licensed Operators 2 Non-licensed Operators 1 Assistant SSS (SRO) 1 Shift Technical Advisor ~X~: Fire Brigade Personnel (5) is a combined total for the site. Assistant SSS may fulfillSTA function if qualified. 5.1.1 Station Res onsibili Durin Normal Workin Hours During normal working hours, the Executive Vice President Nuclear has 'verall responsibility for the site. The Plant Manager - NMPNS Unit 1 has overall responsibility for Unit 1, while the Plant Manager - NMPNS Unit 2 has overall responsibility for Unit 2. The SSS on duty has responsibility for ensuring that the Unit is operated safely and within the respective license and Technical Specification requirements. The SSS and their superiors have the authority and responsibility to order shutdown of the reactor and/or declare an emergency ifrequired. Also, any licensed reactor operator on duty in a Control Room can shutdown (scram) the reactor if it is in an unsafe condition. In addition, the Manager Radiation Protection for their respective unit has the-authority to order a shutdown of the unit if, in their opinion, a radiation hazard exists and a shutdown is required. 5.1.2 Station Res onsibili Durin Off-Normal Workin Hours During off-normal working hours, the SSS's have overall responsibility for the site and safe operation of their respective units. Selected management personnel are on-call and may be reached through the use of a personal page (beeper) if an SSS needs to notify them of an event that requires technical consultation or requires additional personnel. However, it is the on-duty SSS who has the responsibility and.authority to declare an emergency. Upon declaring an emergency, the SSS immediately becomes the Site Emergency Director. In the event of an emergency declaration due to an initiating condition affecting both Unit 1 and Unit 2, the Unit 1 SSS becomes the Site Emergency Director. SEP Rev. 30 ~ ' 5.2 ON-SITE EMERGENCY RESPONSE ORGANIZATION NURHG"::,06S4!EL ::,If A~4l::If!8,."1'lH!8!5~IL'F,'1,,;",II::H!4'. The Nine Mile Point Nuclear Station On-Site Emergency
Response
Organization begins with the minimum shift crew and may expand to include other personnel as they are needed and available or as required by the emergency classification level. Emergency staffing is illustrated in Figures 5.1, 5.2, 5.3, &5.4.
Initial staffing consists of the minimum shift crew, for each unit under the direction of a SSS, and would provide initial as'sessment of and response to an emergency condition.
For events that fall into the category of an Alert, Site Area Emergency, or General Emergency, an even larger response organization willbe activated, This larger response organization provides for augmentation by additional site personnel and personnel from the Corporate staff and is capable of handling large scale and/or long term emergencies, During normal hours, emergency response positions staffed by site personnel can be manned within 30 minutes.
During off-hours, personnel are notified to fill~ke positions within the emergency organization within approximately 60 minutes.
Figures 5.1, 5.2, 5.3, and 5.4 of the Site Emergency Plan present, in tabular form, the available personnel on-shift, and those minimum
~ke positions required to augment the On-Site Emergency Response Organization.
NMPC considers personnel in key positions to be initial responders.
If an affected Unit declares an Alert or higher emergency classification, the emergency organization for that unit staffs in accordance with established procedures, and the affected Unit takes the lead in NMPNS'esponse to the emergency.
Should the James A. Fitzpatrick Nuclear Power Plant (JAFNPP) declare an Alert emergency classification, the NMPNS Unit 1 SSS would be'informed and notifies appropriate site and corporate management.
Should the JAFNPP declare a Site Area Emergency or higher emergency classification, the NMPNS Unit 1 SSS has the ability to request staffing of the Emergency
Response
Facilities.
Staffing would be for the purpose of providing support to the JAFNPP as requested and/or to assess the need for protective actions for NMPNS site personnel.
The following subsections of Section 5 of this Site Emergency Plan, describes the positions, functions and responsibilities of key positions in the On-Site Emergency Response Organization.
For a long-term emergency condition, a duty rotation system willbe established using the designated alternates and/or 5-3 SEP Rev. 30

When notified of an emergency the'FRMAP team would request a Coast Guard helicopter pick up a six person team at Brookhaven and fly them to the Nine Mile Point area with their equipment.
Approximate arrival time of five (5) hours from notification is expected, This team would provide initial radiation surveys, obtain airborne samples and analyze these samples with the equipment available.
The team would also act as an advance party to establish an initial base of operations for follow-on personnel; A possible location for the FIUvfAP team to set up operations is the Oswego County Airport, which is about ten (10) miles from the NMPNS.
Use of this facility would also allow for equipment to be flown in on fixed wing aircraft.
c)
Federal Ener Re ulato Commission FERC Niagara Mohawk Power Corporation owns and operates two (2) licensed hydroelectric developments within a ten (10) mile radius of the Nine Mile
. Point Nuclear Station and the James A. FitzPatrick Nuclear Power Plant.
The Minetto and Varick Hydroelectric Station's are part of Project Number 2474 licensed with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission who
- requested that a plan be developed, to implement a response plan to safely shutdown and evacuate these hydroelectric facilities. This would be done in the event of a radiological emergency at either nuclear station.
In addition, this plan should address means to minimize the impact to the public as a result of this emergency shutdown of the hydroelectric stations, Niagara Mohawk Power Corporation has developed the Radiological Emergency Response Plan for FERC Project No. 2474 Minetto and Varick Developments to address the FERC request.
