Fort St. Vrain #1 Technical SpIcificatiens Amendment #

Page 7.1-1 7.1 ORGANIZATION, REVIEW, AND AUDIT-ADMINISTRATIVE CONTROLS Applicability Applies to the lines of authority and responsibility for the operational safety of the facility, and the organization for periodic review and audit of facility operation.

Objectives To define the principal lines of authority and responsibility for providing continuing review, evaluation, and improvement of the plant operational safety.

SPECIFICATION AC 7.1.1 - ORGANIZATION, ADMINISTRATIVE CONTROLS

1. ORGANIZATION The organization and lines of responsibility which govern plant operation shall be as follows:

a. In all matters pertaining to operation and maintenance of the plant and to these Technical Specifications, the Station Manager shall report I

to, and be directly responsible to, the Manager, Nuclear Production. The Administrative and Departmental Management Organization is shown in Figure 7.1-1.

Fort St. Vrain #1 Technical Specifications Amendment #

Page 7.1-2

b. The Station Manager is directly responsible for 1

overall facility operation and in all matters concerning the Plant Operations Review Committee (PORC). He shall delegate in writing this responsibility during his absence.

c. The Technical Advisors shall report to, and be di rectly responsible to, the Technical / Administrative Services Manager. The Technical Advisors shall maintain independence from normal plant operations as necessary to make cbjective evaluations of plant conditions and to advise or issist plant managemert in correcting conditions that may compromise safety of operations. The Technical Advisors are responsible for:

(1) Maximizing plant safety during and after accidents, transients, and emergencies by independently assessing plant conditions and by providing technical assistance to mitigate and minimize the effects of such incidents and make recommendations to the Superintendent of Operations.

l

Fcrt St. Vrain #1 Tcchnical Sp2cifications Amendment #

Page 7.1-3 (2) Review abnormal and emergency procedures.

(3) Assist the cperations staff in applying the requirements of the Technical Specifications.

(4) Provide evaluation of Licensee Event Reports from other plants as assigned.

d. Organization for conduct of operations of the plant is shown in Figure 7.1-2.

2. UNIT STAFF The unit staff shall be as shown on Table 7.1-1 and:

a. A licensed senior operator shall be present on site at all times when there is fuel in the reactor,

b. A licensed operator must be in the Control Room at all times when fuel is in the reactor. During

. reactor startup, shutdown, and recovery from -

reactor trip, two licensed operators must be in the Control Room.

c. -ALL CORE ALTERATIONS after the initial fuel loading shall be directly supervised by either a licensed Senior Reactor Operator or Senior Reactor Operator limited to Fuel Handling who has no other concurrent responsibilities during this operation.

Page 7.1-4

d. An operator or technician qualified in radiation protection procedures shall be present at the facility at all times that there is fuel on site.

e. A site Fire Brigade of at least five members shall be maintained on site at all times *. The Fire Brigade shall not include (3) members of the minimum shift crew necessary for safe shutdown ~ of the unit and any personnel required for other essential functions during a fire emergency.

l

• Fire 3rigade composition may be less than the minimum requirements for a period of time not to exceed two hours in order to accomodate unexpected absence of Fire Brigade members provided immediate action is taken to restore the Fire Brigade to within the minimum requirements,

f. The Technical Advisor shall be in the Control Room within one hour after an emergency call. The Technical Advisors shall work on a normal day work schedule, but will be placed "on call" after normal working hours.
