SUMMARY

-

Scope:

!

l

This special, announced inspection of the licensee's emergency preparedness

[

program included a review of the following areas:

corrective actions in

response to deficiencies identified during exercises and real events involving

offsite notifications from the Control Room; training;(EAL) pendent program

inde

audits; augrentation staffing; emergency action level

flowchart; dose

!

projection; and Emergency Plan implementation in response to the loss of

offsite power (Unit 2, June 1989); and observation of the licensee's actions

-

,

1-

in response to Hurricane Hugo and the loss of annunciators.

l

l

Results:

.

l

Within the areas reviewed, two violations were identified:

(1) Failure to

[

provide follow-up notifications to State / local agenc!es from the Control Room

,

in accordance with Plant Emergency Procedure (PEP)-02.6.21 (Paragraph 4); and

(2) Failure to provide emergency response training to personnel in accordance

with PEP-4.3 and Training Instruction (TI)-306 (Paragraph 6).

The inspection

indicated that the licensee had taken appropriate action (subsequent to the

June 1989 loss of offsite power event) to ensure that Control Room Personnel

provide followup notifications to offsite authorities when required. However,

as evidenced by inconsistent responses during the interviews with Control Room

personnel, a fundenental misunderstanding existed regarding the use of the

three part memo for follow up notifications and the philosophy regarding the

'

tine interval (60 minutes) between the initial notification and the follow-up

notification nessage.

,

The inspector noted the following actions in response to Hurricane Hugo and the

lossofControlRoomannunciators(Unit 2):

The event classification was appropriate for both Hurricane Hugo

(Notification of Unusual Event) and the loss of annunciators (Alert),

i

Both events were promptly classified, and offsite notifications were made

in a timely manner.

Follow-up notifications were made from the Control

Room and Technical Support Center (TSC) in accordance with procedures.

'

Actions were observed in response to Hurricane Hugo to be in accordance

with Abnormal Operating Procedure (AOP) 13.0; and in response to loss of

annunciators, actions were in eccordance with A0P 29.0.

In response to the Alert declaration involving the loss of annunciators,

the TSC was activated within 60 minutes of the event declaration.

Onsite protective actions for both events were appropriate.

Repair personnel were prompt in returning the annunciators to service.

Energency Detection and Classification (82201)

Pursuant to 10 CFR 50.47(b)(4) and 10 CFR Part 50. Appendix E. Sections

-

IV.B and IV.C. this program area was inspected to determine whether the

!

licensee used and understood a standard emergency classification and

action level scheme.

The inspector retiewed the lict:rsee's classification procedure (PEP-2.1,

Initial Emergency Actions).

The event classifications in the procedure

Fere consistent with those required by regulation.

The classification

procedure did not appear to contain impediments or errors which could lead

to incorrect or untimely classification.

In addition to PEP-2.1, the

licensee's energency action levels (EALs) were flow charted to aid

personnel in emergency classification.

Comparison of the EAL flow-charts

.'

i

.

i

2

.

i

t

with the EAL description in Brunswick's PEP-02.1 and hUREG-06L4 showed

)

that use of the flow-charts would result in the proper classification.

.

Selected EAls specified in the classification procedures were reviewed.

The reviewed EALs were consistent with the initiating events specified in

Appendix 3 of NUREG-0054.

The inspector noted that sone of the EAls were

based on parameters obtainable from control room instrumentation.

,

The inspector verified that the licensee's notification procedures

included criteria for initiation of offsite notifications and for

development of protective action recornendations (PARS). 'the notification

procedures required that offsite notifications be made promptly after

<

declaration of an emergency.

The responsibility and authority for classification of enertency events

and initiation of emergency ection were prescribed in licensee procedures

and in the Emergency Plan.

Interviews with selected key members of the

.

'

licensee's energency organization revealed that these personnti understood

their responsibilities and authorities in relation to accident

classification, notification, and PARS.

Walk-through evaluations were conducted with various personnel involved in

the event classification, offsite notific6 tion, and PARS.

Personnel

assigned to five of the six Control Rote shifts were interviewed.

Interviewees included the Shift Operations Supervisor, Shift Feeman,

Shift Technical Advisor, and the Production Assistant (who function; as an

i

Energency Communicator).

The inspector also interviewed individuals

designated as Offsite Connunicators in the TSC and the Emerge. icy

Operations Facility (EOF).

The scenario postulated the approarn and

'

arrival of Hurricare Hugo.

All interviewees properly classified the

hypothesized accident situation presented to them, and appeared to be

.

'

familiar with the appropriate classification procedures.

With the

exception of the Control Room shift that was in training at the time of

the inspection, interviewees experienced a slight delay in classifying the

event.

This delay may have been caused by wording in the EAL pertaining

to hurricanes which required the operators to consult the facility Final

Safety Analysis Report.

The delay was not significant enough to consider

,

the response as unaccepteble.

The response by remaining personnel was

t

effective in event detection, classification, and notification.

I

ProtectiveActionDecision-Making (82202)

Pursuant to 10 CFR 50.47(b)(9) and (10) and 10 CFR Part 50, /.ppendix E.

Sect hn IV.D.3, this area was inspected to determine whether the licensee

had 24-hour-per-day capability to assess and analyze emergency conditions

and make recommendations to protect the public and onsite workers, and

whether offsite officials had the authority and capability to initiate

l

prompt protective action for the public.

The inspector discussed responsibility and authority for protective action

decision-making with licensee representatives and reviewed pertinent

portions of the licensea's Emergency Plan and procedures.

The Plan and

procedures clearly assiqned responsibility and authority for accident

assessment and protectivo action decision-making.

Interviews with members

of the licensee's emergency organization revealed that these personnel

understood their authorities and responsibilities with respect to accident

assessment and protective action decision-making.

Although the walk-througt scenario did not require PARS to reduce

radiological consequences, operators were questioned regarding procedures

to follow and considerations to be taken into account in making such

recommendations.

Personnel interviewed appeared to be cognizant of

appropriate onsite protective measures and aware of the range of pars

9

appropriate to offsite protection.

Personnel interviewed were aware of

the need for timeliness in naking initial PARS to offsite officials.

No violations or deviations were identified.

4.

Notification and Communication (82203)

Pursuant to 10 CFR 50.47(b)(5) and (6) and 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix E,

.Section IV.D. this area was inspected to determine whether the licensee

';

was maintaining)a capability for notifying and communicating (in the event

of an emergency among its own personnel, offsite supporting agencies and

authorities, and the population within the EPZ.

The inspector reviewed the licensee's notification procedures.

The

procedures were consistent with the emergency classification and EAL

scheme used by the licensee.

The inspector determined by review of

applicable procedures and by discussion with licensee representatives that

adequate procedural means existed for alerting, notifying, and activating

emergency response personnel. The procedures specified when to notify and

activate the onsite emergency organization,

corporate support

organization, and offsite agencies.

The content of initial emergency

messages was reviewed and appeared to meet the guidance of NUREG-0654,

Sections 1.E.3 and II.E.4.

The inspector conducted a very detailed review of the performance by the

Control Room staff in the area 01 notification (initial and follow-up

messages) in view of past performances during exercises.

The review

included walk-throughs

with

personnel

assigned

communicatior s

responsibility, training, performarce during past drills / exercises, and

performance during real events.

Based on walk-throughs, the operators

understood the necessity to make their initial County and State

notifications within 15 minutes following the declaration of an emergency.

However, interviewees expressed no urgency regarding the initial

notification to the NRC in view of the notification procedure allowance of

60 minutes.

Further, the operators acknowledged the necessity to make

follow-up notifications to offsite authorities (State / local) immediately

if major changes took place, but indicated a lack of concern for other

..

L

F

follow-up notifications (i.e. no major ctanges) until close to the 60

minutes time limit. Section 6.3.3 of PEP-02.6.21 (Emergency Communicator)

'

,

provides for the use of a three-part memo or notebook paper for follow-up

notification when the use of the prescribed notification form (exhibit

2.6.21-1) is not appropriate.

Control Room personnel gave various

interpretations for the use of these alternate forms of documentation:

(1) used only if there was no change in plant status; (2) inadequate

number of lines on the notification fonn for explanation' of changes in

plant status; (3) alternate forms should not be used at all; and (4) used

to make the 60 minute time limit.

The inspector detendined during

walk-throughs and discussions that the follow-up notification form did not

provide sufficient space for explanation and the three part memo was not

formalized as an exhibit to the procedure. In addition, the walk-throughs

disclosed a misunderstanding on the part of Operators' and communicators'

regarding follow-up notifications being made in a timely manner not to

exceed 60 minutes.

A licensee representative indicated that actions had

been initiated with the offsite euthorities to devise an acceptable

follow-up notification form.

Further, the licensee committed to conduct

additional training regarding the notification time limit and the

,

follow-up notification form once the form was completed.

The inspector

'

indicated that this matter would be considered as an Inspector Follow-up

Item (IFI) for review during a subsequent inspection.

IFI (50-325, 324/89-31-01):

Revision of follow-up notification form ana

conduct of additional training regarding the timeliness of the follow-up

message notification form.

The

inspector reviewed licensee documentation dated July 21, 1989, that

detailed an Unusual Event declaration made on June 17, 1989, due to a loss

of power to 'Jnit 2 (discusced also in NRC Report Nos. 50-325,324/89-12).

According to documentation, the initial nntifications from the Control

Room to the offsite authorities was done in accordance with procedures.

,

L

However, following the initial notifications (at 9:10 p.m.), the licensee

'

did not make follow-up notifications for more than two hours (11:15 p.m.).

According to PEP-02.6.21 (Emergency Communicator, Rev.17, dated April 3,

1989), Section 6.3.1, follow-up notifications should be ma% at 30 to

60 minute intervals or as required by changing conditions.

During a

,

confirmed fire event on April 27, 1989, which was declared as an Alert

l

(based on a fire potentially affecting safety related equipment), and was

!

1mmediately downgraded to en unusual event, State and ccanty agencies were

notified of the Alert but a follow-up message regarding event

de-escalation to an Unusual Event was not provided.

In both events,

Control Room personnel failed to follow procedures governing notificatien

(PEP-02.6.21) requirements.

Procedural nonconformance was identified by

the licensee during both events, and a nonconformance report was issued.

Other examples that were noted where follow-up notifications did not occur

from the Control Room included the Calendar Years 1987, 1988, and 1989

exercises.

The ir.spector was provided documentation to show that actions

were taken to resolve the above findings and hopefully prevent recurrence.

Actions that were taken by the licensee involved training of all

Operations personnel.

Included in the training out-line was a discussion

of the Site Emergency Coordinator (SEC) and the Emergency Comunicator

Functions; offsite notification requirements; revicw of past events (both

exercises and real event) with highlights of any concerns or improvements

l

'

in the area of notification; and finally, a review of procedural changes

involving follow-up notification requirements and maintaining a log of

i

l

emergency activities.

The licensee was informed that in view of the

multiple examples given for repeat failures on the part of Control Room

personnel to provido follow-up notifications to State / local agencies in

accordance with PEP-02.6.21, a violation of Technical Specification 6.8.1.e is iden' .fied.

'

Violation (50-325, 324/89-31-02):

Failure to follow PEP-02.6.21

(Emergency Communicator) which implements Section 3.5 of the Emergency

Plan regarding notification and activation.

1

Two events occurred during the period of the inspection which afforded the

i

inspector the opportunity to observe first hand the licensee's response in

the area of initial and follow-up notifications.

The two events

(discussed in Paragraph 9 of this report and NRC Report Nos. 50-325,

324/89-26) involved a Notification of Unusual Event due to Hurricane Hugo,

and an Alert due to loss of annunicators.

In response to Hurricane Hugo, the licensee was prompt in declaring the

event and making offsite notifications.

Comunications from the Control

Room and TSC to offsite authorities were done in accordance with the

Emergency Comunications procedure.

On September 21, 1989, prior to

l

Hugo's arrival, the licensee's TSC was activated for hurricane tracking,

'

comunications, damage control, and other actions as warranted.

A

continous open line of comunication was established by the licensee with

the NRC.

On an hourly basis until event termination, updates were

provided to offsite authorities (State, local, and Coast Guard).

j

During the loss of annunciators, the inspector observed notification frem

the Control Room and TSC. Continous manning of the Control Room Emergency

,

Notification System (ENS) was established within 60 minutes of the Alert

!

declaration.

Once the TSC was activated, all comunications

responsibility were transferred to the TSC uniti the Alert ;ondition was

4

terminated.

A follow-up message was transmitted to the offsite

l

authorities following the event downgrade.

1

During both events, no problems were noted with the initial or follow-up

notifications to offsite authorities.

All notifications were done within

the time limits specified in PEP-02.6.21.

a

One violation was identified.

5.

Shift Staffing and Augmentation (82205)

Pursuant to 10 CFR 50.47(b)(2) and 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix

E,

Sections IV.A and IV.C this area was inspected to determine whether shift

staffing for emergencies was adequate both in numbers and in functional

-

,

.

-

.

.

.

'

6

capability, and whether administrative and physical means were available

and maintained to augment the emergency organization in a timely manner.

The inspector reviewed the Emergency Plan requirements for on-shift

staffing, the Technical Specification minimum requirements for shift crew

composition, the on-call organization for augmenting the on-shift

organization, the associated call-in procedure, and the results of

periodic augmentation drills.

The Brunswick Emergency Plan specifies that the minimum on-shift staff is

that staff required by Technical Specifications.

However, the minimum

shift crew composition does not meet the staffing levels of NURE3-0737

Supplement I and Table B-1 of NUREG-0654. The minimum staffing discussed

in the Technical Specifications address licensed Operator, Auxiliary

Operators, Shift Technical Advisor, etc; the staffing requirements for

'

Health Physics, Chemistry. Mechanical, etc. is not addressed.

In

addition, the station's call list (Appendix A to the PEPS or on-call staff

listing) does not include maintenance, chemistry, and other personnel for

augmenting the 30 and 60 minutes staffing described in NUREG-0654 or 0737.

When records from periodic augmentation drills were reviewed, the results

confirmed that Health Physics, Chemistry, and maintenance personnel were

,

not called in to verify augmentation times.

Section 3.0 of the Brunswick

Emergency Plan states that compliance with the requirements of NUREG-0654

Table B-1 has been assured.

Contrary to Section 3.0 of the Emergency

Picn, based on the records review, compliance with Table B-1 of NUREG-0654

had not been demonstrated.

The licensee committed to conducting an

unannounced augmentation drill requiring that personnel travel to the site

,

for verification of Table B-1 augmentation requirements.

The inspector

indicated that this matter would be considered an IFI.

IFI (50-325, 324/89-31-03):

Conduct an unannounced drill to verify that

Table B-1 of NUREG-0654 regarding augmentation staffing and arrival times

can be met.

No violations or deviations were identified.

6.

Training (82206)

Pursuant to 10 CFR 50.47(b)(2) and (15),Section IV.F of Appendix E to

10 CFR Part 50, and Section 6.1 of the Emergency Plan, this area was

inspected to determine whether the licensee's key emergency response

personnel and personnel involved in the initial stages of an incident were

properly trained and understood their emergency responsibilities,

i

The inspector reviewed Section 6.1.1 o' the Emergency Plan, PEP-04.3

(Performance of Training, Exercises, and Drills), and TI-306 (Emergency

l

Plan Training) for a description of the training program and training

l

procedures.

In addition, selected lesson plans or training modules were

I

reviewed, and personnel with the responsibility for conducting the

energency response training were interviewed.

It was determined that the

I

licensee maintains a formal emergency training program.

According to a

1

.

..

.

.

_

i

.{

.

7

q

discussion with a licensee representative, training modules can be

i

completed through self-study and passing an exam. The exams, are formally

1

scheduled, and proctored by an instructor following a self study and

i

review period.

The licensee's training program did not require practical

training in assigned positions in the emergency response organization.

This approach was noted as promoting the development of a few highly

experienced responders for an on-call position while the remaining (see

'

responders for the same position only gain experience as team members

Paragraph 7 regarding dose projection walk-through).

The inspector

'

discussed conducting more hands-on or practical training for personnel in

some of the accident assessment areas (eg, dose projection, radiological

monitoring). The licensee did not comit to any action in this regard.

Training records were reviewed for several members of the emergency

organization.

Training records were chosen based on the on-call

Managenent Roster for the period September 15, 1989 to September 21, 1989;

the operations shift schedule for the week beginning September 16, 1989;

and the list of responders in Revision 30 of PEP-Appendix A dated

September 13,1989.

When personnel training records were compared with

position assignments, the inspector noted the following:

One individual

designated as a Production Assistant with

,

responsibility as a Control Room Communicator had not received

.

Emergency Comunicator or Emergency Plan Overview training as

l

specified in TI-306 Attachment 1.

Two individuals designated as Shift Operating Supervisors with

responsibility as Interim Site Emergency Coordinator (SEC) training

had expired.

The annual Emergency Plan Overview training had not

been attended by either individual.

In addition, one of the

individuals failed to complete the annual training on Module EP6002B

entitled Site Emergency Coordinator.

Twelve individuals designated as Auxiliary or Radwaste operators had

either expired training, or failed to attend any of the required

training.

Five of six individuals designated as Shift Technical Advisors had

expired training on Module EP6002B entitled Site Emergency

Coordinator.

In addition to the above training discrepancies involving operations

personnel, three individuals designated as Communicators on the

augmentation staff and one individual designated as the Technical

Assessment Director had not completed annual training on Module EP6C03B

l

entitled TSC Operations.

Section 6.1.1 of the Brunswick Emergency Response Plan states that

PEP-04.3 assures training of those individuals who may be called to

respond to an emergency by providing initial training and annual refresher

training.

This item is identified as a violation of Technical Specification 6.8.1.e.

Violation (50-325, 324/89-31-04):

Failure to provide training to members

of the emergency organization in accordance with PEP-04.3 and TI-306.

As evidenced by the number of individuals with expired training, a

centralized administrative control system for tracking and ensuring that

training is current for emergency response personnel did not exist.

The

licensee agreed that the current practices for tracking energency response

training warrants increased attention.

The licensee connitted to

,

implementing an effective tracking system for emergency response training

to ensure that personnel assigned to the emergency organization training

is current and up-to-date during the period of assignnent. The inspector

'

identified this item as an IFI for review during a subsequent visit.

IFI (50-325, 324/89-31-05):

Development and implementation of a

centralized tracking system for emergency response training.

The inspector conducted walk-through evaluations with selected key members

of the emergency organization (Control Room Staff and dose projection

personnel).

During these walk-throughs, individuals were given various

hypothetical sets of energency canditions and data involving Hurricane

Hugo and asked to respond as if an emergency actually existed.

The

individuals demonstrated familiarity with emergency procedures and

equipment, and no significant problems were observed in the areas of

emergency detection and classification, notifications, dose calculation,

assessment action (to include plant conditions), and protective action

decision-making.

One violation was identified.

7.

Dose Calculation and Assessment (82207)

Pursuant to 10 CFR 50.47(b)(9), this area was inspected to determine

whether there was an adequate method for assessing the consequences of an

l

actual or potentia' radiological release.

The inspector reviewed the manual and computerized dose projection

procedures, and the basis document for the dose projection methodology to

determine if adequate procedures exist for dose calculation under

anticipated release conditions. No problems were noted.

An irspection and operability check were made of dose projection equipment

and support items used for dose assessment in the Control Room and TSC.

No problems were observed.

The inspector requested and observed dose assessment walk-throughs with

one Shift Technical Advisor (STA) and three individuals designated as Dose

Projection Team Leaders (DPTL).

The STA walk-through involved the

performance of initial dose projection f rom the Control Room, and the

,

'

,.

9

b

three DPTLs were evaluated based on their ability to acquire

meteorological data and perform dose projections from the TSC using the

computerized and manual methods.

The DPTLs using the manual dose

projection procedure (PEP-03.4.3) were unable to provide dose projection

results within 10 minutes of being provided effluent monitor readings.

Additionally, the DPTLs were not accustomed to correlating dose assessment

results with recommendations to the SEC for PARS or emergency

'

classifications.

Though qualified for the DPTI. position by virtue of

training, the interviewees were inexperienced in serving as the DPTL. All

three interviewees had previously performed as dose projection team

members during previous drills and were dependent on the direction of an

experienced team leader.

It was noted that the DPTL function is normally

performed by a more senior person with experience in this position.

Although the licensee's program appears to be adequate, as previously

discussed in Paragraph 6, the licensee was informed that more practical

hands-on training is needed to ensure personnel performance in assigned

areas of responsibility is acceptable.

This item was considered for

improvement.

No violations or deviations were identified.

8.

LicenseeAudits(82210)

Pursuant to 10 CFR 50.47(b)(14) and 10 CFR 50.54(t), this area was

inspected to determine whether the licensee had performed an independent

review or audit of the emergency preparedness program and whether the

licensee had a corrective action system for deficiencies and weaknesses

identified during audits, drills, and exercises.

The inspector reviewed the licensee's procedure and check-list for

conducting audits.

Records for audits conducted in 1987, 1988, and 1989

were reviewed.

In addition, the licensee's program for trecking and

follow-up action on audit, drill, and exercise findings were reviewed.

The licensee's audit program was also reviewed during a previous NRC

inspection and discussed in Report Nos. 50-325,324/89-04.

Based on this

review and the previous referenced report, this area of the licensee's

program aopears to be adequate.

'

i

No violations or deviations were identified.

Emergency Plan Implementation (93702)

During the period of the inspection, two events occurred which required

Emergency Plan and PEPS implementation.

On September 20, 1989, at

7:50 p.m., the licensee declared an Unusual Event in response to Hurricane

l

Hugo; and on September 21, 1989, at 8:47 a.m., an Alert was declared based

I

on the loss of annunciators on Unit 2.

In both instances, the event was

I

properly classified, and the appropriate actions were taken in accordance

I

with procedures.

No problems were noted with the timeliness of initial or

follow-up notifications from the Control Room or TSC.
