2.0 Reference Management Procedure No. 401-003

~3.0 General ,

3.1 Copies of this procedure will be kept at the Parley

- Visitors Center (FVC), Public Information Department, and Farley Nuclear Plant (FNP) Document Control.

Copies will be distributed to the Nuclear Generation Department, General Office Telecommunications Depart-ment, and S.E. Division Telecommunications Group.

3.2 The FVC staf f in conjunction with Nuclear Generation will be responsible for updating procedural information on an annual basis.

3.3 The Nuclear Generation Section will be responsible for 1

procedure issuance and control.

4.0 Procedure 4.1 Electric Cooperatives, Georgia Power Company and APCo Ashford Local Office -

The PVC staff will establish and maintain contact with the electric cooperatives, Georgia Power and APCo local office managers that serve customers within a ten (10)

Rev. O

V GO-EIP-136 mile radius of the nuclear plant regarding the weather alert radios.

4.1.1 Based on written agreement, each electric co-operative, Georgia Power local office and APCo Ashford local office will provide the FVC staff with a monthly listing of residential and busi-ness electrical connects and disconnects. The local offices will also serve as a collection point for residents returning radios when elec-trical service is disconnected due to moving.

4.2 Electrical Connects The FVC staff will coordinate distributing weather alert radios to new residents.

4.2.1 After reviewing the monthly electrical connects and disconnects listings, the FVC staff will ensure that a siren information and emergency preparedness brochure is distributed to new residents in the Gordon, Ashford and Columbia siren zones.

4.2.2 After reviewing the monthly electrical connects and disconnects listings, the FVC staff will mail letters to new residents in areas covered by NOAA radio distribution, requesting that the resident come by a distribution point (APCo f

local office or FVC) to receive a NOAA radio and emergency preparedness brochure. If the new Rev. O

1 GO-EIP-136 resident does not obtain a radio within 90 days, a FVC staff member will contact the resident and if necessary deliver a radio and brochure.

4.3 Electrical Disconnects The FVC staff is responsible for obtaining radios from residents moving out of the 10-mile radius.

4.3.1 Based on written agreement, the electric cooper-ative offices, Georgia Power local office and APCo Ashford local office will serve as a collection point for weather alert radios.

Each resident will be informed by the local office to bring his weather alert radio to the local office or to return it to the FVC.

4.3.2 The FVC staff will collect weather alert radios from the local offices on a monthly basis.

4.4 Radio Malfunctions FVC staff is responsible for handling incoming tele-phone calls and visitors who have problems with the weather alert radios.

4.4.1 The FVC staff will keep a log (Figure 1) of in-coming telephone calls and see that problems are resolved in a timely manner. The FVC staff will systematically try to determine the cause of a radio problem (Figure 2). If the problem cannot t

be resolved over the telephone, the resident will be asked to come by the most convenient Rev. O

GO-EIP-136 distribution point and exchange the malfunction-ing radio for an operable one. The APCo Ashford local office and FVC will serve as distribution points.

In the event that the resident cannot or will not come by a distribution point, an appointment will be made for a staff member to deliver an exchange radio within the next month.

4.5 Weather Alert Radio Repair FVC staff is responsible for coordinating weather alert radio repair.

4.5.1 Based on information provided by the resident, the FVC staff will fill out a deficiency tag (Figure 3) and attach it to the malfunctioning radio before giving the radio to the S.E. Divi-sion Telecommunications group.

4.6 Weather Alert Radio Inventory The FVC staff is responsible for keeping an adequate supply of weather alert radios and batteries for distribution and exchanges.

4.6.1 The FVC staff will keep a quantitative inventory record of all spare weather alert radios--radios in storage, radios at the FVC, and radios being l repaired by S. E. Division Telecommunications group.

4.6.2 FVC staf f will notify the Nuclear Generation

V GO-EIP-136 Department when the inventory level drops to a pre-established minimum level. The Nuclear Generation Department is responsible for ordering weather alert radios.

4.6.3 The FNP storeroom will order batteries based on a pre-established miniumum-maximum stock level.

4.7 Records Management The FVC staff is responsible for keeping a thorough, timely records management program for the weather alert radio distribution and repair.

4.7.1 The FVC will record and keep the following in-formation:

a) Telephone Log of incoming calls regarding the weather alert radios b) Radio deficiency tags 4.7.2 The FVC will be provided the following information:

a) Daily trouble sheet (by S. E. Division Tele-communications group) b) Radio distribution print-out (by FNP Document Control upon request) 4.7.3 FVC staff will provide the following information to PNP Document Control for inputing into the computer:

a) Record of Delivery forms (Figure 4) b) Record of Return or Exchange forms (Figure 5)
