Current Emergency Plan Emergency Plan, Revision 18-3 Part Ill. Description of How the Proposed Change Complies with Regulation and Commitments.
If the emergency plan, modified as proposed, no longer complies with planning standards in 10 CFR 50.47(b) and the requirements in Appendix E to 10 CFR Part 50, then ensure the change is rejected, modified, or processed as an exemption request under 10 CFR 50.12, Specific Exemptions, rather than under 10 CFR 50.54(q):
Change 2 - Changed in accordance with McGuire Nuclear Site Emergency Planning Group Manual Section 1.1 to in accordance with McGuire Nuclear Site Emergency Plan Section B. McGuire Nuclear Site Emergency Planning Group Manual Section 1.1 being superseded to AD-EP-ALL-0103, AD-EP-ALL-0105 and AD-EP-ALL-0106 in Section B of the Emergency Plan. Emergency Plan Section B (On-Site Emergency Organization) continues to assign ERO responsibilities and staffing requirements. The emergency responsibilities of the various supporting organizations have been specifically established, and each principal response organization has the staff to respond and to augment its initial response on a continuous basis. The process for timely augmentation of onshift staff continues to be maintained as described in Emergency Plan Section B. Thus, the Emergency Plans will continue to comply with 10 CFR 50.47(b)(1) - Assignment of Responsibility (Organization Control), 10 CFR 50.47(b)(2) - Onsite Emergency Organization and 10 CFR Part 50 Appendix E,Section IV.A Organization.
Change 3 - Changed The Emergency Coordinator shall make Protective Action Recommendations in accordance with MNS Emergency Plan Section J (Protective Response) and shall make follow up protective action recommendations as soon as possible. to The Emergency Coordinator shall make Protective Action Recommendations in accordance with AD-EP-ALL-0109, Offsite Protective Action Recommendations, and shall make follow up protective action recommendations as soon as possible. Protective Action Recommendations (PARs) continue to be developed for the plume exposure pathway EPZ for emergency workers and the public, as described in Section J of the Emergency Plan (Protective Response), using procedure AD-EP-ALL-0109. Thus, the Emergency Plans will continue to comply with 10 CFR 50.47(b)(10) Protective Response and 10 CFR Part 50 Appendix E,Section IV.D. Notification Procedures.
The differences in approved revisions and the current revisions of the Emergency Plans have been reviewed, and they have been determined to continue to meet NRC requirements as described in 10 CFR 50.47(b) and 10 CFR 50, Appendix E during the course of revisions.
