I II. SPECIFIC INTERROGATORIES

~~

N.H. Contention 9 .

Q.9(a):

(1) New Hampshire has not yet finalized its position with regard to Contention 9 and, therefore, we can provide only a partial answer at this time.

This is based in large part on the fact that although Public Service Company has indicated that it will comply with Sections II.B.2, II.B.3, II.F.1, III.D.1, III.D.3.3, and III.D.3.4, the Applicant has not completed its submission to the Staff on most of these items. Further, as indicated by the Staff in its answers to New Hampshire's Interr,gatories,. complete information regarding the radiation monitoring system has not been provided by the Applicant. Because of the incompleteness of information supplied by the Applicant, it has not demonstrated that NUREG-0737 and GDC 64 has been or will be complied with.

(2) With regard to GDC 64, see (1) abovb. With regard to GDC 63, we have not yet completed our review of the system's ability to detect conditions that may result in loss of residual heat removal capability. As soon as this review is completed, this answer will be supplemented.

(3) Our reasons for asserting non-compliance are stated in (1) and (2) above.

~

(4) Because of the incompleteness of information, we f cannot state the means by which deficiencies can be cured.

0.9(b) New Hampshire has not yet finalized its position

( ':ith regard to the adequacy of monitoring capacity and the location and number of monitoring sites because of the lack of complete information from the Applicant.

(

0.9(c) No.

l 0.9(d) Again, because of the lack of complete l

information provided to date, we cannot provide an answer to l

the Interrogatory.

Q.9(e) No.

  • i N.H. Contention 10

'~ I 0.10(a) A detailed Control Room Design Review or .

Preliminary Control Room Design Assessment is required under NUREG-0737, I.D.1 and Supplement thereto. Equally important to ,

this review requirement is the requirement under 1.D.2 that I safety parameters be displayed as a system. Evaluation of control room design problems since the accident at Three Mile Island has indicated that improvement of Control Room Design i and procedures is essential to safe operation of a nuclear power facility. It is noted that review of emergency procedures is required by NUREG-0737, I.C.l.

The focus of New Hampshire's contention is to assure that an assessment of the Control Room Design and emergency procedures is performed and results in appropriate modifications. The Applicant's answers to Interrogatories NH-10.13 and NH-10.14 reflect that such a review or assessment has not been performed and that human factors and task analyses have not been performed. Similarly, the Applicant has not developed a proposal for SPDS.

The State of New Hampshire has not performed a technical assessment of the Applicant's compliance with General Design -

Criteria 19, 20, 21, and 22 and at this time, we do not intend to offer direct testimony on these specific issues. However, the absence of the review and assessment process required by NUREG-0737 indicates that compliance with the General Design Criteria has not been demonstrated. Since we have not had an opportunity to review the DCRDR or preliminary assessment, as neither are yet available, we cannot be more specific on areas 1 in which the Applicant has failed to improve Control Roon Design and procedures as required by NUREG-0700 and 0737.

New Hampshire bases its position that a detailed Control l Room Design review is required on the following regulatory l requirements and documents. These documents, in general, i indicate the importance of timely review and upgrading of Control Room Design and procedures. Because the Applicant has not completed its Control Room Design Review, this is a partial

list which may be supplemented.

Hampshire asserts that the Applicant has not provided sufficient information to determine whether it will comply with i these requirements. At the present time, we are not in the

! position to suggest how the short-comings can be corrected.

(See answer to 0.10(a).),

0.10(c) Because we have not had access to any documents related to the detailed control room design review which is I

apparently 50% completed, we cannot determine whether such review is adequate or not.

Q.10(d) New Hampshire has not yet completed its review of the human factors analysis proposed by the Applicant.

O.10(f) See answer to Q.10(e).

Q.10(g) We do not yet have sufficient detailed information with regard to the equipment located outside the control room as required by General Design Criteria 19 to answer the Interrogatory. When ue obtain such information, we wi'll answer the Interrogatory.

N.H. Contention 13 0 13(a) The Emergency Plan does not demonstrate how the listed personnel will be trained to:

(a) recognize emergency conditions; (b) classify observed emergency conditions in accordance with the emergency classification system;

~

(c) notify off-site officials of emergencies; (d) recommend protective actions to off-site authorities; (e) direct station staff to take appropriate protective actions, and (f) control or mitigate accidents in which the core is severely damaged. .

Furthermore, the Emergency Plan fails to provide for adequate evaluation of the training program, particularly by neither specifying the scope and frequency of any audits, nor designating who will conduct such audits.

Q. 13(b) As to all of the listed positions, New Hampshire has asserted its concern that operations personnel have the necessary experience and training to properly respond to accidents by (1) controlling or mitigating the accident and (2) implementing adequate emergency response measures. The basis for these concerns are NUREG-0737, Items I.C.1 and II.B.4, and the response requirements of 10 C.F.R. Part 50 and NUREG-0654. Further detail concerning the necessary experience and the training program for the listed interrogatories of

- . - - w . - ._

4 personnel must be provided. In addition, it may be necessary to expand the scope of the training programs to provide more thorough training in the areas of accident mitigation and .

emergency response.

Q. 13(c) Yes. New Hampshire contends that Section 13.2 of the Emergency Plan does not detail the scope of technical training as it pertains to the mitigation of accidents and how the methods by which the effectiveness of this training will be evaluated.

Q. 13(d) New Hampshire contends that the Applicant has not demonstrated in Chapter 13 of the FSAR and the Emergency Plan, that its operations personnel will have the necessary experience and training to respond properly to accidents in which the core is severely damaged. New Hampshire has, at this time, no other reason to believe that the Applicant will be unable to conduct proper training.

N.H. Contention 20 0.20(a) and 0 20(b) New Hampshire contends in its Contention 20 that the Applicant has not adequately -

l demonstrated its ability to assess and classify ah accident at Seabrook Station and te notify its personnel, local and state governments, and the public in the event of an accident. Those sections of the Emergency Plan which are deficient in this regard are outlined below. Please note, however, that New Hampshire has not finalized its position on this contention.

New Hampshire is aware of its duty to supplement its answers to these interrogatories where appropriate under 10 C.F.R.

S 2.740(e).

~

New Hampshire contends that the following sections of the Applicant's Emergency Plan are inadequate as they concern on-site emergency planning.

Emergency Plan S5 The Applicant has not submitted Emergency Action Levels, and has not discussed-them with State and local l Therefore, New Hampshire asserts i governmental authorities.

that the Emergency Plan does not comply with 10 C.F.R. S50.47(b)(4)), and 10 C.F.R. Part 50, Appendix E, SIV,B, and NUREG-0654, Item II(D).

Emergency Plan S6 and 97 The Emergency Plan does not assure that adequate emergency facilities and equipment are provided and

. - - - . _ - - , , , , - - _ .--__.,,._m._ s...-.-. - ..___ -- - . - - , , ,

maintained, in that the location of the various emergency

~ ~

response centers has not yet been selected, or if selected, may not be appropriate. For example, as the Applicant -

indicates in its January 5, 1983 response to New Hampshire  ;

Ir.terrogatory 20.14, the location of the EOF is still under rrriew. Also, New Hampshire believes the Media Center's ,

proposed location in seabrook may be too close to the plant.  !

2 .

In addition, there is insufficient assurance that the  !

facilities will be properly equipped with communications equipment, and will be capable of coordinating with State emergency response personnel. New Hampshire is particularly concerned that.the commercial telephone lines for use between the Technical Support Center (TSC) and the Emergency Operations Facility (EOF), the TSC and the Incident Field Office (IFO), and each of these facilities and the Emergency Operations Center (EOC) in Concord are inadequate. The Applicant has, then, not demonstrated compliance with 10 C.F.R. 550.47(b)(8); 10 C.F.R. Part 50, Appendix E, SIV, E; and NUREG-0654, Item II, F.

Emergency Plan 59 The Emergency Plan does not assure that those personnel responsible for classifying an accident and notifying State officials should a classifiable event occur at Seabrook Station, will be adequately experienced or j trained for this responsibility. Thus, the Emergency Plan does not demonstrate compliance with 10 C.F.R. 550.47(b)(5 and 15); 10 C.F.R. Part 50, Appendix E, SIV, D; NUREG-0654,

' Item II, O. (See also New Hampshire's answer relative to 55 of the Emergency Plan in this Interrogatory, and its answer to NRC Staff Interrogatories relative to Contention NH-13.) -

Emergency Plan S10.2 The Emergency Plan does not demonstrate that persons responsible for recommending protective actions to off-site authorities have the proper training and experience for l this responsibility. For exa.mple, this section does not l provide sufficient information on the training staff and

program, evaluation of the training program, and the maintenance of emergency preparedness. Therefore, New Hampshire maintains that the Emergency Plan is not in compliance with 10 C.F.R. S50.47(b)(5 and 15); 10 C.F.R. Part 50, Appendix E, SIV, D.

6 Emergency Plan Sll

' ~

The public notification (warning) system for the .

Seabrook site has not yet been developed. (See p.11-1 cf the Emergency Plan.) Also, since the Emergency Plan does not indicate that a brochure, or other means of public information, has been developed, there is no assurance that the public will know how to respond to an emergency warning. The Emergency Plan, furthermore, does not adequately detail how the public is to be informed during an accident, or how the various emergency centers, including the Media Center, will coordinate public information functions. The Emergency Plan, therefore, is not in compliance with 10 C.F.R. Part 50, Appendix E, SIV, D, 1; and 10 C.F.R. S50.47(b)(5, 7). (See also New Hampshire's answers above regarding SS 6 and 7 of the Emergency Plan.)

Emergency Plan S12 This section of the Emergency Plan does not demonstrate that communications, medical, radiological monitoring, and health physics drills will be implemented adequately. For instance, the medical drill i,s to be conducted annually uith one simulated, contaminated person. New Hampshire asserts that this is insufficient to evaluate medical personnel and facilities. Also, the content and frequency of " scenarios," as described in 12-3 l of the Emergency Plan, is insufficient. New Hampshire contends then, that the Emergency Plan is not in compliance with 10 C.F.R. S50.47(bs(15); 10 C.F.R. Part 50, Appendix j

E, SIV, D; NUREG-0654 Item II, O.

New Hampshire has identified the above areas of concern as ones that should be improved; it has not yet developed its own position on how these improvements should be accomplished. However, it is clear from the above answers that the following steps must be taken to correct some of the deficiencies noted by the State of New Hampshire: ,

a. submission by the Applicant of emergency action levels, after they have been discussed with and agreed upon by State and local governmental authorities;
b. a final decision made on the location of the EOF, and consideration of changing the location of the Media Center; i

I - - ,

c. improvement of the communication systems between various emergency response centers to

'~

insure proper communication and coordination with .

State emergency response personnel;

d. further detail provided on the necessary experience and training for those personnel responsible for classifying an accident and notifying State officials, and for recommending protective actions to off-site authorities;
e. an adequate public notification system must be developed. Also, the means by which the public will be educated about the warning system and what it represents, and informed during an accident must also be demonstrated in the Emergency Plan; and
f. an increase of the frequency of various emergency planning drills and the objectives of the drills expanded.

Q.20(c) The Applicant has not submitted Emergency Action Levels (EALs) identifying parameter values and equipment status for each emergency class. Whether the EALs when submitted are adequate and how any deficiencies could be corrected cannot be

- answered until they are submitted by the Applicant.

Q.20(d) The regulatory basis for the subject assertion is 10 C.F.R. S50.47(b), 10 C.F.R. Part 50, Appendix E, SIV, B, NUREG-0654, Item II, D (2), and NUREG-0737, Item I.C.l. Where the Applicant must analyze the postulated accidents in the FSAR, it is logical that they should be included in the initiating conditions of the emergency classification and action scheme.

Q.20(e) The reference to " environmental" plan should read

" emergency" plan. This being the case, 10 C.F.R. S50.47(b)(4),

10 C.F.R. Part 50, Appendix E, SIV, B, and NUREG-0654, Item II, D, form the basis of the subject statement.

0 20(f) Sections 3.2, 8.2, and 9.2 of the Emergency Plan state only that the Unit Shift Supervisor has the responsibility to recognize emergency conditions and notify the Shift Superintendent, and that the Shift Superintendent is responsible for classifying the observed conditions, and notifying the appropriate authorities. The responsibilities of the Unit Shift Supervisor and Shift Superintendent thus described are ambiguous in that they do not clarify how and in what time frame the Unit Shift Supervisor and Shift

_O

Superintendent are to carry out these responsibilities,

-- contrary to the requirements of 10 C.F.R. 550.47(b)(2) and -

NUREG-0654, Item II, B. This deficiency may be corrected by a more detailed unambiguous description of the responsibilities of the Unit Shift Supervisor and the Shift Superintendent.

0.20(g) New Hampshire will not pursue that aspect of Contention NH-20 which asserts that the Emergency Plan does not provide for adequate, continued staffing.

0.20(h) As stated previously, the Applicant has not yet submitted complete Emergency Action Levels. Also, the Emergency Plan does not demonstrate that plant personnel can properly and promptly notify off-site officials of the Applicant's protective action recommendations, as stated in New Hampshire's answer to Q.20(a)(b) above. Until more information

! is available, New Hampshire will not be in a position to describe how any' deficiencies can be corrected.

0.20(i)and(j) Section 3.2, and sections 8.2 and 9.2, of j the Emergency Plan do not assure that the Shift Superintendent will receive notification of an event and initiate emergency action properly and promptly. The procedures for emergency assessment and notification outlined in the Emergency Plan are not detailed enough to provide a sufficient basis on which a finding can be made that adequate notice will be provided by the Applicant to State and local response organizations, as required by 10 C.F.R. S50.47(b)(5). The special difficulties presented by the Seabrook site vis-a'-vis emergency response make immediate emergency assessment and notification to State officials imperative. Further detail on the Applicant's notification capabilities must be provided.

0.20(k) New Hampshire has not yet finalized its position i

on how the Applicant can comply with the the 10'C.F.R.

l 550.47(b)(10) protective action recommendation requirements.

However, New Hampshire contends at this time, as stated above in answers to Q.20(a and b), that the Emergency Plan should provide in greater detail the training and experience required i for those personnel responsible for notifying State officials and the guidelines to be followed,in making their recommendations.

Q.20(1) The Em'ergency Plan is in' complete in that it does not adequately describe the information which will be contained in the Emergency Plan brochure. Further, the Emergency Plan does not provide any means by which the effectiveness of the Applicant's public information program can be evaluated. At this time New Hampshire maintains that the means by which the public is to be informed about emergency preparedness and how

. these methods are to be evaluated must be set forth in greater detail.

0.20(m) New Hampshire has not finalized its position on how the media are to be adequately acquainted with emergency plans and procedures, in accordance with 10 C.F.R. 550.47(b)(7).

N.H. Contention 21

~

The following response to the Staff's Interrogatories on N.H. Contention 21 is limited to concerns regarding on-site protective measures, in conformance with the Board's September 13, 1982, Memorandum and Order, at page 32. To the extent that the Staff's Interrogatories raise broad issues involving on-site and off-site protective actions, Neu Hampshire will respond only as to on-site issues, reserving the right to raise off-site protective action questions at the appropriate time.

_.21(a)

Q and (b) New Hampshire contends that the sections of the Emergency Plan listed below are inadequate, for the reasons stated. .

Emergency Plan S9 See New Hampshire's answers to the staff's Q.20(a) and (b), relative to Sections 5 and 9 of the Emergency Plan.

Emergency Plan S10 Subsection 10.3 of the Emergency Plan is inadequate in that it does not set forth in any detail how plant personnel will be protected from exposure to radiation.

Also, subsection 10.4 of the Emergency Plan provides no detail on how contaminated injured personnel will receive proper medical treatment. (See also the Applicant's answer to Interrogatory NH-21.2.)

New Hampshire has identified the above areas of concern as ones that should be improved; it has not yet finalized its own position on how these improvements should be accomplished. However, it is clear that until the Emergency Plan adequately demonstrates that arrangements have been made for the transportation and treatment of contaminated individuals, and that those responsible for these duties are capable of properly carrying them out, the Applicant will not be in compliance with 10 C.F.R.

S50.47(b)(12) and 10 C.F.R. Part 50, Appendix E, SIV, and NUREG-0654, Item II, L. ,

m

Q.21(c) and (d)

- - As stated in the previous answer, the Emergency Plan contains insufficient reference to and assurance of the manner in which contaminated injured personnel will receive proper medical services. New Hampshire's concern focuses on the adequacy of the arrangements which have been made for transportation of victims of radiological accidents and the ability of the medical treatment facilities to properly handle contaminated individuals. New Hampshire contends that the Emergency Plan must demonstrate more completely that the necessary transportation and medical services can and will be provided.

Q.21(e) Yes. See answers to 0 21(a) (b), and (c).
