Subject: Emergency Preparedness Appraisal

To verify that licensee's have attained an adequate state of onsite emergency

'

preparedness, the Office of Inspection and Enforcement is conducting special

appraisals at each operating power reactor site. Appraisals are also being

performed at sites where a power reactor is expected to receive an operating

license in the near future. The objectives of the appraisal at each facility

are to evaluate the overall adequacy and effectiveness of emergency preparedness

i

and to identify areas of weakness that need to be strengthened. We will

use the findings from these appraisals as a basis not only for requesting

individual licensee action to correct deficiencies and effect improvements,

'

but also for effecting improvements in NRC requirements and guidance.

During the period Octc6er 26 - November 6,1981, the NRC conducted an appraisal

!.

of the emergency preparedness program at the San Onofre Nuclear Generating

Station. The appraisal was performed in lieu of certain routine inspections

normally conducted in the area of emergency preparedness. Areas examined

during this appraisal have been described in the enclosed report (50-206/

,

81-38,50-361/81-31,50-362/81-08). Within these areas, the appraisal team

l

reviewed selected procedures and representative records, inspected emergency

facilities and equipment, observed work practices, and interviawed personnel.

The findings of this emergency preparedness appraisal indicate that one

i

significant deficiency existed in your emergency preparedness program.

Your commitments to resolve this deficiency were discussed in a confirmatory

letter dated November 16, 1981, which is enclosed as Appendix A.

Section

4.1.1.2 of the enclosed report contains infors tion relative to the significant

deficiency,

i

You should be aware that if actions to correct the significant deficiency

l

are not taken within the comitted dates of the November 16, 1981 confirmatory

6

3

letter, the NRC will consider whether enforcement action is appropriate.

The findings of this appraisal also indicate areas in your emergency preparedness

program where we believe improvements could be made. .These are discussed

in Appendix B, " Appraisal, Improvement Areas." ye recognize that an explicit

regulatory requirement pertaining to each item identified in Appendix B

may not currently exist, but we believe additional effort in these areas

would result in program improvements. No written response is required for

!

items identified in Appendix B.

However, we will review your actions on

]

these items during future inspections.

This appraisal disclosed that certain actions had not been completed on

some of the items related to your emergency preparedness program. These

items have been listed in Appendix C and are considered to be "open".

A

follow-up inspection, directed primarily toward these "open" items, was

conducted on January 26-28, 1982. The findings of this follow-up inspection

,

have been recorded in Inspection Report No. 50-361/82-07 and will be transmitted

by separate letter. At this time it appears that Item 5 (Post Accident

.'

Sampling System) is the only item still considered to be "open".

The license,

issued February 16, 1982, requires that the Post Accident Sampling System

be operational prior to exceeding 5' percent of full power.

In accordance with 10 CFR 2.790(a), a copy of this letter and the enclosures

will be placed in the NRC Public Document Room unless you notify this office,

by telephone, within ten days of the date of this letter and submit written

application to withhold information contained therein within thirty days

of the date of.this letter. Such application must be consistent with the

requirements of 2.790(b)(1).

Should you have any questions concerning this appraisal, we will be pleased

to discuss them with you.

Sincerely,
