(Reference 10 CFR 50, Appendix E, Part.IV.F)
Response: Applicable sections of the Catawba EP will be revised to include the above mentioned item, see Rev. 4, April 1984.
s Included (or referenced) in the EP is a description of the emergency response training programs for security personnel or the Fire Brigade.
(Reference 10 CFR 50, Appendix E, Part IV.F)
Response: Reference to above mentioned item to be included in Rev. 4, April 1984.

(Reference 10 CFR 50.47(b)(8) and (9)).
Response:' Catawba-procedure HP/0/D/1009/09, Guidelines for Accident and
. Emergency Response, has been revised to provide for onsite (out-of-plant) surveys during emergencies.
Item 4.
In-Plant Radiological Surveys The licensee has not:
Established a procedure considering the overall responsibilities and priorities for health physics support of potential emergency activities.
(Reference 10 CFR 50.47(b)(8) and (9))
Response: Catawba procedure HP/0/B/1009,09, Guidelines for Accident and Emergency Response, has been revised to serve as a controlling procedure for health. physics support during emergencies.
Provided adequate protection for emergency workers via a " buddy system" under emergency dose-rate and unstable plant conditions.
(Reference 10 CFR 50.47(b)(8) and (9))
-Response: Use of a " buddy system" is included in the revision to HP/0/B/1009/09, Guidelines for Accident and Emergency Response.

as appropriate to the'. emergency at hand, depending on ALARA and manpower resources.
m Si.
-Item 5.
Radiation Protection During Emergencies The licensee's procedures do not include exposure guidelines consistent with'the EPA Emergency Worker and Lifesaving Activity Protective Action Guides.
(Reference 10 CFR 50.~47(b)(11))

Item 6.
Evacuation of Owner-Controlled Areas The Site Assembly / Evacuation procedures do not include provisions for:
(1) specific dose-rate and breathing-air levels of
. radionuclides within the reactor facilities, for initiating site assembly and evacuation, (2) a way to establish dose-rate habitability at assembly locations, and (3) radiation surveillance at -the relocation sites if the Technical Support Center is not fully activated.
(Reference 10 CFR 50.47(b)(10))

.2.
Catawba procedure HP/0/B/1009/09, Guidelines for Accident and Emergency Response, has been revised to establish dose-rate habitability at assembly locations.
3.
Catawba Emergency Response personnel are activated and respond to an emergency as specified by table B-1 of NUREG-0654 Rev. 1.
If the TSC was not yet fully activated, it would be due to the fact that the Emergency Response personnel had not had the specified 30/60 minutes of B-1 and therefore cannot provide surveillance at the relocation site.
Item 7.
Onsite First-Aid / Rescue The responsibilities for search and rescue are not unambiguously defined so as to,specify the duties of individuals within the security organization.
(Reference 10 CFR 50.47(b)(2) and 10 CFR 50, Appendix E, Paragraph IV.A).

Item 3.
Performing a study or drills to verify the ability to meet the minimum staff augmentation criteria in NUREG-0654,Section II.B, Table B-1.
Response: A study was conducted of CNS Emergency Response Organization personnel that verified the minimum staffing criteria, see Memo to File, March 07, 1984 MEB.
Item 4.
Revising CNSD 3.8.4, Paragraph 7.3, to indicate that special training for certain groups in the emergency organization will be given on an annual basis.
Response: Catawba Station Directive 3.8.4 has been revised to indicate annual training for certain groups, see Rev. 6, February 1984.

~ Response: Procedures in the emergency kits will be maintained as controlled distribution copies.
L
' Item.9.
Specifying parametric values for the process radiation monitor values that currently state "in alarm" when used as emergency action levels for accident classification.
Response: Process radiation monitoring setpoints are dependent upon variable factors such as background and core life and are therefore not constants that can be written into procedures. They also are used as indicators of emergency situations and not solely as Emergency r
Action Levels for emergency classification'. We have therefore i
determined that our specification of "in-alarm" is appropriate for this use.
Item _10.
