SUBJECT:
SAFETY EVALUATION REPORT, AMENDMENT APPLICATION DATED OCTOBER 28, 1993, EMERGENCY PLAN (PLAN) 1 Backaround On April 6,1992, CE submitted for NRC approval an Emergency Plan in accordance with the regulatory requirements of 10 CFR 70.22(i)(3).
CE commits to 180 days from the date of NRC's approval to complete implementation of the Plan.
At that time, the Plan will replace CE's current NRC approved i
Radiological Contingency Plan which is required by License Condition S-9.
In response to a staff letter dated March 24, 1993, CE revised the Plan on April 26, and May 29, 1993.
By letter dated October 28, 1993, CE submitted a revised Plan in its entirety to reflect recent plant changes and editorial changes.
Discussion Section 70.22(i) requires certain NRC fuel cycle licensees to maintain emergency plans for responding to serious accidents involving release of licensed radioactive materials.
The regulations require that an emergency plan specifically include:
(1) a facility description, (2) a list of possible types of accidents, (3) classification of accidents, (4) means of detecting accidents, (5) procedures for the mitigation of accidents, (6) methods for assessing the release of materials, (7) a description of plant personnel responsibilities, (8) notification and coordination procedures, (9) types of information to be communicated to offsite agencies, (10) training criteria, (11) procedures for a safe restart, (12) provisions for training exercises, and (13) a list of hazardous chemicals onsite.
CE's Emergency Plan was written based on Regulatory Guide 3.67, " Standard format and Content for Emergency Plans for fuel Cycle and Materials facilities," dated January 1992.
The Guide provides general guidance for meeting the above requirements and a standard format for submitting an emergency plan.
The staff has reviewed CE's revised Plan against the requirements of 10 CFR 70.22(i)(3) and Regulatory Guide 3.67 and finds it acceptable.
