GRAND GULF NUCLEAR STATION EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS EXERCISE i
AUGUST 25-26, 1993 OBJECTIVES A.
PURPOSE This document provides guidance for the conduct of the 1993 Emergency Preparedness Exercise at Grand Gulf Nuclear Station.
The scope of this exercise, with some exceptions, ' vill endeavor to demonstrate by actual performance a number of primary emergency prepuedness functions. At no time will the exercise be permitted to interfere with safe operations, and plant rnanagement may, at their discretion, suspend the exercise for any period of time necessary to assure this goal.
The August 25 exercise will include the appropriate notincations to Federal, State, Local and plant emergency personnel.
Full participation by the states of Mississippi and Lot.!siana, Claiborne County and Tensas Parish is expected. Limited participation from plant personnel may be requested on August 26 to support an Ingestion Exposure Pathway Exercise for the State of Mississippi.
B.
GENERAL OBJECTIVES The Grand Gulf Nuclear Station 1993 Emergency Preparedness Exercise program objectives are based on the Nuclear Regulatory Commission requirements delineated in 10CFR50.47 and 10CFR50 Appendix E. Additional guidance is provided in NUREG-0654, FEMA, REP-1, Rev.1.
The primary objective of the 1993 Emergency Preparedness Exercise is to evaluate the adequacy of the emergency response organization during a simulated accident occurring during normal working hours. The scope of the exercise is suf6cient to test the following emergency response capabilities:
l l
1.
The ability of Emergency Response Organization to classify actual or simulated emergencies through the understanding of Emergency Action Levels (EAL) and Initiating Conditions.
2.
The ability of the Emergency Response Organization to activate the station emergency plan and procedures.
3.
The ability of the Emergency Response Organization to respond to an emergency, make proper and timely notifications through each emergency classi0 cation (Notification of Unusual Event, Alert, Site Area Emergency,. General Emergency), and activate the emergency response facilities in an ef6cient and timely manner.
