Identify the agencies with emergency plan responsibilities in the ingestion exposure pathway (50-mi) emergency plan-ning zone (EPZ). Provide a map that clearly illustrates the States, provinces, cities, etc., within the ingestion exposure EPZ.

(2) -Identify the agency.or agencies responsible for notifying Canadian officials of an emergency at Fermi 2, and describe the arrangements made to notify Canadian officials.

Resolution

'(1)

The Fermi 2 Radiological Emergency Response Preparedness (RERP)

Plan, Revision 3 will~ reference the State of Ohio, together with the State of Michigan and Province of Ontario, Canada.

(2)

Item closed.

r Page 2 13.3.2.2 ONSITE EMERGENCY ORGANIZATION Item Requiring Resolution Provide information on shift staffing augmentation capability before an operating license is issued, and if significant differences from the staffing objectives of Table 8-1 of NUREG-0654 exist, provide justification for the differences, including a study of response times by emergency functions and possible compensating measures such as enhanced shift capability.

Resolution

-Item Closed.

The Fermi 2 RERP Plan, Revision 3, will contain a revised Table B-1.

i i

Page 3 13.3.2.4 EMERGENCY CLASSIFICATION Items Requiring Resolution (1)

Provide the specific instrument readings and other indi-cators that are used as emergency action levels (EALs) in the emergency classification scheme. Correct the headings in Table 0-1 of the emergency plan.

(2)

Correlate the containment (drywell) monitor and other key instrument readings, if applicable, to a range of degraded core conditions. Selected values from this analysis along with other indicators of core and containment conditions should be included in the EALs and used to initiate protective actions in accordance with the guidance in NUREG-0654, Appendix 1 for general emergencies.

(3)

Develop the methodology to classify serious events in case the containment monitor and other key instrumentation are off scale or inoperable.

(4)

Revise the emergency plan and implementing procedures to indicate that offsite authorities will be notified within 15 minutes after the applicant declares an emergency.

Resolution (1)

Table D-1 was revised in the Fermi 2 RERP Plan, Revision 2 to reflect the Emergency Action Levels (EALs) presented in RERP Plan Implementing Procedure EP-101.

Calculations are currently in progress, to determine monitor readings which will be equivalent to EAL Dost Limitations at the site boundary for site area and general emergency classifications.

(These monitor readings will be incorporated into the next revision of EP-101 prior to fuel load.)

Use of Containment High Range Radiation Monitor to Assess Core Damage

Page 4 (2) USE OF CHRRM's TO ASSESS CORE DAMA_G_E E

3 As noted in the Fenni 2 FSAR, Section H.II.F.1.3., Detroit Edison is installing redundant containment radiation monitoring channels to meet the requirements of NUREG-0737.

These monitors are fre-quently referred to as Containment High Range Radiation Monitors (CHRRM's). Radiation levels resulting from gamma-ray emitting radionuclides in the vicinity of the detectors are indicated and recorded in the main control room and directly transferred to the Emergency Response Information System (ERIS).

As shown in FSAR figures H.II.F.1-1, 2 and 3, these detectors are located in the bulbous portion of the drywell, at elevation 605, and approximately 7' from the react v shield. The CHRRM location is shown more clearly in the at. ached sketch.

During normal operations these detectors will read approximately 25 R/hr due to nitrogen-16 in nearby steam and reactor water recirculation piping.

Under accident conditions, the CHRRM's may be used as an indicator of reactor ' ore damage. A release of lodines and/ar noble gases to the drywell will result in a uniform mixture of these gases in the drywell. The radiation field associated with these gases will be a measure of the airborne radioactivity released to the drywell.

A correlation may be made with the CHRRM reading and the amount of radioactivity released to the drywell that will become airborne.

Thus, a correlation can be made for accidents ranging from a release of all coolant and core damage to a classic Regulatory Guide 1.3 Loss-of-Coolant-Accident (LOCA) which assumes the release of 100% of all noble gases and 25% of the lodines to the drywell volume. This set of curves was provided as Enclosure 2 of the Fermi 2 RERP Plan Implementing Procedure EP-540 (Enclosed).

It is doubtful that the CHRRM will provide any meaningful signal for accidents such as core melts which are more serious than RG 1.3. LOCA's. To get a radiation field higher than that for 100% nobles and 25% lodines, one must assume the next most volatile class of nuclides, cesium, is heated to the point where it becomes uniformly mixed in the drywell air space. This is unlikely.

In the event of a core melt, we believe the remaining nuclides would remain within the reactor pedestal and shield wall (recall, the CHRRMs are outside that wall), or in the suppression pool water and not appreciably affect the monitor reading above that already seen due to the surrounding cloud of noble gases and radiciodines. Recall again that in the TMI-2 accident, core dam ge.was sufficient to release more than 50% of the noble gases to the containment, but the airborn iodine fraction was significantly less than 1%.

Page 5 Values gl'/en in the curves of Enclosure 2 of EP-540 were obtained as follows. The dose rate at the CHRRM location due to 100% of the core inventory of noble gases uniformly distributgdinthedrywellvolumewascalculatedtobe 1.40 x 10 R/hr; the dose rate due to 2% of the lodines 4

similarly distributed was found to be 7.55 x 10 R/hr.

From these values, the dose rate due to any postulated fraction or combination of releases may be calculated. As an example, the enclosed table has been constructed. This information will be included in a procedure.

i AMENDMENT 50 - AUGUST 1983 h

Page 9 (3) The methodology has been developed to obtain infonnation necessary to provide an offsite dose assessment should key monitoring instrumentation be offscale or inoperable.

The key instruments are the Containment High Range Radiation Monitor (CHRRM) in the drywell and the Eberline SPING-4 and the AXMs in the SGTS. The methodology as described below will be developed as a procedure.

CHRRM A location in the Reactor Building will be selected where a measurement of the activity in the drywell can be assessed through the biological shield using a survey meter reading and appropriate conversion factors.

OR Using tne Post Accident Sampling System, a sample of the drywell atmosphere will be obtained, a dose rate measured using an appropriate survey meter, and the dose rate converted to a CHRRM monitor reading (R/hr) using a graph developed for the purpose.

AXM Using the existing AXM sample taps, a sample of the SGTS effluent will be cbtained, a dose rate measured using an appropriate survey meter, and an. estimate of a i/cc being released through SGTS will be determined c

by using; graphs developed for the purpose.

13.3.2.5 NOTIFICATION METHODS AND PROCEDURES Item (s) Requiring Resolution (1) Develop a notification form for initial messages to offsite response organizations and revise Emergency Plan Implementing Procedure EP-290,

" Emergency Notifications," to ensure that noti-fications will be made within the 15-minute period specified in 10 CFR 50, Appendix E,Section IV.D.3.

(2) Provide a commitment to have a. prompt alert and notification system, which is.in accordance with the guidance of NUREG-0654, Appendix 3, installed and operational by fuel load, or develop interim compensatory measures to provide emergency instruc-tions to the public within the plume exposure pathway EPZ. Revise the emergency plan to reflect the deletion of mobile sirens from the alert and notification system.

(3) Coordinate planning efforts with offsite authorities to ensure the administrative capability will exist to alert the public and make prompt protective action decisions for rapidly developing emergency situations especially during non-normal working hours.

Resolution (1) A generic State of Michigan notification form was developed for notification of offsite response organizations that will insure the initial notification is made within 15 minui.?s (RERP Plan Implementing Procedure EP-290). This procedure will be revised to describe those portions of the form that will be used for initial and follow-up messages.

(2) A total of 31 sirens has been installed in Wayne and Monroe Counties that will be operational by fuel load.

All's!rens have been silent tested at the siren site and found to be operational. All that remains to make the integrated system operational is installation of the control panel at the Monroe County Sheriff's Joint Communication Center. A draft of the Prompt Notification System Design Report has been completed and is under review prior to submittal to FEMA.

The Fermi RERP Plan was revised (Revision 2, September 1983) to include the PNS and delete the mobile sirens previously discussed.

Page-11 (3) Detroit Edison is continuing to coordinate planning efforts with local offsite authorities to ensure prompt notification of the general public in a rapidly moving emergency situation.

The Michigan Emergency Preparedness Plan, Annex B, Warning, page 87 (dated 6/83) refers to the local emergency operations plans for prompt notification.

The draft Monroe County Plan (A;1pendix 1, Nuclear Facility Procedures to the Monroe County Operations Plan) in Section V.A.1 of the Basic Plan (page BP-11),

the Chairperson of the Monroe County Board of Commission-ers has the immediate responsibility for implementing the Monroe County Plan. The decision-making responsi-

'bility regarding protective actions is stated Section V.4,

-(page A-1-8) of Appendix 1, Direction and Control Annex.

Detroit Edison has, via letter, requested that more explicit information be provided in the Monroe County Plan concerning the responsibility for prompt decision-making and public notification during a rapidly moving event.

It is anticipated this information will be included in the Plan during the next several weeks.

Training Offsite Emergency Response Organizations Detroit Edison, the Emergency Management Division of the Michigan State Police, and the local Counties have developed a four-part training program that is presented to the local offsite Emergency Response Organizations annually. The program consists of the four parts listed below:

Part 1: Basics of Radiation and Plant Operations presented by Detroit Edison.

Part 2: Biological Effects and Detection of Radiation presented by the Radiological Health Services Division, Public Health Department.

Part 3: Radiological Emergency Response Plans, Organization and Procedures p*esented by Emergency Management Division, Michigan State Police.

Part 4: County Radiological Emergency Response Plan presented by a County OCP representative.

This training program will be described briefly in Revision 3 to the RERP~ Plan.

Attached is an outline and.more detailed.information regarding the program.

In addition to the above training, Detroit Edison will hold, on an annual basis, a -seminar for the offsite emergency response decision-makers covering Emergency Action Levels, dose assessment, meteorology, and protective action recommendations. The first such seminar will precede FERMEX '84.

COI., GCF, AS.D t HOUGH. OlHIICTOH January 31, 1984 Mr. Philip Scheuerman Planner / Trainer Monroe City-County office of Civil Preparednenn 106 East First Street Honroe, Michigan 48161

Dear Mr. Scheuerman:

This letter is in response to your request for more information on the rad 1o-logical emergency preparednenn (RI:P) training program. 'As you are aware, the Emergency Management Division (EMD) is coordinating the provisten of state and utility resources to the counties to assist them in providing training as required by N!! REG-0654. Thin training program is an attempt to effective.ly utilize the resources of each participant, provide coordination of ef fort s, and to ennure a quality training program wit h continuity f rom year to year.

- One of the key points of the program is the definition of responsibilities and abilities.

Each Icvel of government has the responsibility to train it n workern so t hey are able to renpond to a nuclear accident. Consequently the four part training program was developed to ensure this responsibility was met.

Under this program, each entity covers the arcan that they are responsthic for.

That.i s, state covern state functions, utility covers utility functions, and county covers county functions.

This delineation of responsibilities supports j

the same responnihilities found in the plans.

The major points of the training support program are presented below. This is an l

elaboration of our October 6, 1983, letter:

1.

NLIREG-0654 requires that all emergency workers be provided with t. raining.

2.

These areas are plant operat. ions and facilities, baele nuclear physics, biological effects of radiation, radiological emergency preparedness at l

the state and local level, support organizations' responnihilities and procedures, and some specialized training as needed.

3.

The.0ctober 6, 1933, letter contained an outline of t.he training program as provided by the state.

L_

Mr. Philip Scheuerman Page Two January 31, 1984 The Atomic Safety and Licensing Board has reviewed and approved this 4.

program during the fuci pool hearings at Big Rock Point.

The training of county / local personnel is a county responsibility under 5.

the county emergency operations plan.

The EMD will assist the county in the training by providing instructors 6.

to cover parts I, II, and III of the program.

The EMD will assist the county in developing its presentation under part 7.

IV of the program, but the presentation of this mateeJal in a county responsibility.

The EMD will support the county in a " train the trainer" type program.

The training program is aimed at all of the emergency workers who would be 9.

These workers fall into involved in a response to an incidert at Fermi 2.

those who would be within the primary emergency two general categories:

planning zone or who would be assigned to decontamination / reception facilities; and those who would have responsibilities outside the primary emergency These workers are identified in the county emergency planning zone.

Therefore, one of the first steps in the operations plan, Appendix 1.

training program is for the county to identify all of the agencies / depart-ments and the number of persons in each who would be involved in emergency The October 6,1983, letter included a list of,these agencies /

departments contained in NUREG. The county may have additional agencien renponse.

Hr. Philip Scheuerman Page Three January 31, 1984 12.

In the part IV presentation, the county emergency services coordinator covers county notification procedures, EOC operations, general communications, coordination of resources, public information, and dosimetry. The specific annex officers then cover their annexes' functions and responsibilities.

It has been our experience in other counties that the dif ferences in functions and procedures for emergency workers from their daily operations to emergency operations are minimal.

Once these areas of differences are covered, most workers feel comfortable with REP.

13.

Our experience in other countica uhows that there are less than 500 workers that'nced to participcte in the training program. More commonly, there are 200 to 300. This is because we use a train the trainer type approach. That is, you identify key personnel who will be involved at the EOC, at depart-ment offices, and in supervisory roles, train them, ar.d then they can pass the information along to their workers.

For example, the School Annex Officer and alternatives at the EOC need to be involved in the training as do school superintendents and principals. These last two would pass the information along to the teachers just as they would in other types of emergency response (tornadoes, etc.).

14.

Given all of the above, the county officials become the key for training local workers.

~

inn assjst you Jn setting up a schedule, for the development of the part IV presentation, and the development of training material. The state will have a booklet for all workern (Nuclear Incident-BrJefing Material) as well as outlines for each part.

15. This training program is on an annual basis. We will assist you in retraining all personnel cach year and updating the program as needed. There is a continual feedback into the presentations from experience gained in the program.

16.

Specialized training will he provided as needed.

For example, decontamination procedures.

l-This program han been sucessful in other parts of the state. We can maximize l

state, utility, and county time and personnel by holding large training sessions for mixed functional groups and covering parts I, II, III, and the first half of part IV.

This should take about four hourn. The last half of part IV can be covered in smaller groups over a longer period of time.

I would expect that all of the county and local workers could be provided with the training program in two weeks if sessions were held at a large facility.

In other counties, we.

_ have held three sessions a day (9 a.m.,1 p.m., and 7 p.m.) for five days and L

covered all of the workers. This gives people a variety of times to attend so l-their schedules are not disrupted.

l l

l

-e Mr. Philip Scheuerman Page Four January 31, 1984 Using this approach, training in Monroe County could be started soon and cover all the personnel needed in a short period of time.

If you have any questions, please feci free to contact me.

Sincerely, YWh*

February 8, 1984 Mr. Jon R. Eckert Director /Coordinalor Monroe City-Conni.y Ollice of Civil Prepaiedness County Courthouse 106 E. First Street Monroe, MI 48161

Dear Jon:

We have been reviewing the Monroe County Plan and previously for-warded our comments to you.

However, we have discovered one area that needs to be addressed further.

That area relates to tlie county response in a'very fast moving incident, e.g., when we

-90 right li Lo a Geoeral l'iintrgesicy.

Your plait sliould state LliaL the Chairperson of the Board of Consnissioners has the authority and will make an lusnediate protective action reconsnendation.

Your plan slionld *. late how Lliis will be done given flie guidance and requirements specified in NUREG-0654 FEMA / REP-1.

In addition, you should identify who else has ~the authority to make such a recommendation if the chairperson cannot be reached.

As a suggestion, you migiL colisider inicluding an " automatic" protective action recommendation for this particular situation or base it on exactly what we reconunend to you.

We have an automatic reconunendation whenever we enter the General Emergency classification.

Our automatic minimum protective action recommendation is to shelter in a two-mile radius and five miles downwind. Both FEMA and the NRC will be looking for predelenisined protective actions at Lliis classification for this sTLiiaficia.

If you have any questions, I can be reached at 586-4320.

Sincerely, h

Thomas Randazzo / [
