By virtue of the localized nature of the unit operations and the opportunity for direct visual.
i contact with the handling process, any abnormal conditions are noted and corrected without creating circumstances with the potential of releasing radioactive material.
2.1.
Criteria for Accommodation of Abnormal Conditions 2.1.1 Process Systems
]
i Plant process systems are as described in J
other chapters of SNM-1168.
Specifications and design criteria for-purchased or lochily' fabricated equipment where clear and radiological safety coneiaeretiens are involved are approved by knowledgeable representative of Health-Safety.
Before being released for production operation, new equipment is tested to assure that safety specifications are satisfied.
Where operational safety is based wholly or in part on the use of electrical or mechanical interlocks, the proper functicning of the interlocks chall be verified upon installation and on an annual basis thereafter.
The safety interlock system was designed to take certain action on specified process equipment that developed malfunctions such as:
loss of ventilation, loss of gas, or an open door.
No equipment is used after being removed from service until an equipment checkout for continued effectiveness of safety related parameters is performed.

Using assumptions from the Standard Format and Content for Radiological Contingency Plans for. Fuel Cycle and Materials Facilities and the accident analyses in Section
)
5 of BAW-1412, Environmental Report, B&W Commercial r
Nuclear Fuel Plant (12/74), it was determined that no postulated accident would have the-potential.for serious radiological consequences to public health and safety.
The following criteria will be used asia basic' guideline to determine how to classify specific events.
3.1 Description of Radiological Contingencies 3.1.1 Alert These are generally' accidents within the plant requiring staff emergency organization response.
Initial evaluation would indicate that the potential for offsite hazard is minimal.
Examples of events that would be classed under ' ALERT' would be:
. Major fire / explosion - (a large spreading fire on or threatening to.
the CNFP site that would require offsite support and assistance.
t
. Release of toxic gas 3.1.2 Site Area Emergency A Site Area Emergency would be situations more severe than plant emergencies which have significant potential for offsite release, but that are not expected to j
exceed EPA Protective Action Guideline
~
exposure levels except near the site boundary.

RADIOLOGICAL CONTINGENCY 1'.AN q
i 3.2 Emergency Response _ Actions The following is a general summary of. the different actions takcn.for each emergency classification.
I 3.2.1 Alert Plant Emergency Organization will be mobilized.
In most cases, plant personnel able to
[
handle the situation.
Plant evacuation'or isolation of certain affected plant' areas or.
i possible termination of plant processes may be necessary.
Environmental monitoring may be i
initiated.
Depending on the situation,.offsite i
support agencies would be requested to assume alert condition or provide assistance, i
Escalate to a more E are class, or downgrade to a less severe class as appropriate.
Notify offsite authorities when the-emergency is' terminated.
3.2.2 Site Area Emergency Plant evacuation would be necessary.
Emergency organization will be l
l mobilized.
l Contact will be made with offsite l
support agencies and state and local government Emergency Response Organizations as necessary.

initiated.
Escalate to a'more severe class, or
(
downgrade to a less severe class as appropriate.
i Notify offsite authorities when the emergency is terminated.
3.3 Rangi of Fustalated Accidents The mtximum impact on the facility _and the surrounding environment would result from a criticality accide.it.
The probability of such an incident is considered to be very low due to design and process and administrative controls.
Radioactive material could be released from the facility as a result of a major _ fire or_ explosion if building containment and. uranium process equipment were breached.
Due to uranium and i
process characteristics, fire loading and plant ventilation design and flexibility, the potential is low.
These and other postulated accidents are discussed further in Chapter 16-of SNM-ll68 and in BAW-1412,
" Environmental Report, B&W Commercial Nuclear Fuel Plant" (12/74).
Battelle Pacific Northwest'Laboratori-2s performed the accident analyses for CNFP as presented in BAW-1412.
The analyses, including projected dose _
l calculations and atmospheric dispersions, are 1
based on conservative assumptions, and as such
]
should be considered as upper limits.
3.3.1 Radiological Accidents In the event of a radiological accident, the CNFP Radiological Monitoring Team would make radiation surveys and collect environmental _ samples for either onsite or offsite analysis.
The radiation surveys would be used in conjunction with published EPA or NRC dose projection monograms to determine offsite doses.

Atmospheric dispersion calculations would be based on NNFD-RL or other meteorological data and ground level release graphs found in-Regulatory Guide-3.34.
1 Two plant evacuation alarm systems l
(criticality and fire) are provided to 1
alert personnel and the; Emergency s
Response Organization to the emergency.
All controlled area effluents are 3
monitored and the CNFP has an environmental air monitoring network to assess releases.
Based on the accident analysis and size:
of the site, evacuation to offsite locations, except for personne) requiring hospitalization, would not be' required.
Although offsite impact is considered to1 be remote, necessary monitoring capability and offsite notification is provided for.
3.3.2 Non-Nuclear Emergency Non-nuclear emergencies are handled as would be a nuclear emergency since the potential for involving radioactive material is always present. -However, there is no significant offsite impact from a non-nuclear emergency.
Examples of major non-nuclear emergencies are:
Major fire and explosion.
Manpower and communication needs are met in that the Emergency Response organization is geared to handle the mort potentially-severe nuclear emergencies.
3.3.3 Minor Emergency l
Minor emergencies:
Minor fires, radioactive material' spills, minor utility loss, and personnel emergencies.
These emergencies are usually handled by plant operating and support groups, but i
L could require Emergency Team assistance and some offsite support.
