This exemption was requested when the EOF was staffed by the Corporate Offices and the same personnel participated in all Duke Power Company nuclear plant exercises. The EOF is now mostly staffed by Catawba Nuclear Site personnel. It is expected and required that the Catawba Nuclear Site personnel staff the EOF anytime Catawba is involved in a " full scale" exercise. A request to remove the exemption from the Facility Operating License will be l
submitted to the NRC under a separate cover. This change reflects the current Catawba Emergency Response Organization exercise response expectations and requirements.

96-3 SECI!ON_1 Does the Emergency Plan change decrease the effectiveness of the Emergency Plan resulting in the f
. loss o reasonable assurance that adequate protection can and will be taken in the event of a radiological emergency as required by 10CFR50.47(a)?
j YES X
NO Justification for Answer:
(The justification shall explain how the Emergency Plan change maintains reasonable assurance of edequate protective actions. An explanation may be based on an assessment of its effects on public health and safety, a review of applicable plans, procedures, resources, or by demonstration of the effected capabilities in a drill or exercise. Consideration should be given to any applicable site-specific planning needs.)
Citawba Nuclear Station Emergency Plan Revision 96-3 contains several changes that are considered to be editorial, clarification or typographical corrections. These changes do not decrease ths effectiveness of the Catawba Nuclear Station Emergency Plan and are not discussed in detail in this evaluation.
Emergency Plan Revision 96-3 includes some document (procedure, Site Directive) deletions; however, the information contained in these documents which is required to implement the Emergency Plan has been relocated into other documents as identified in Emergency Plan Revision 96-3. This change does not decrease the effectiveness of the Emergency Plan.
The ERO training function was moved to the Site Training Organization on January 1,1996. The 7
changes to Emergency Plan Section O ensures that the Catawba Nuclear Site Emergency Planning Group continues to maintain control and ownership of this program. The ERO Training Matrix l
(displays required training for each ERO position and off-site support training) has been relocated from a Site Directive to an EP Group Manual Guideline. This Guideline can only be revised by the Emergency Planning Group. The relocation of the specified training objectives from the Emergency Plan to the Site Training files allows the ERO training to be performance based. This approach
[
cllows focused training in areas where ERO performance needs improvement and less focus in j
areas where the parformance has been satisfactory. The Catawba Site Emergency Planning Group
]
is required to approve all ERO lesson plans and training objectives. This change does not decrease ths effectiveness of the Emergency Plan.

Catawba Nuclear Station Emergency Plan revision 96-3 The installation of the new meteorological tower has improved the ability of the Catawba Nuclear Site to provide off-site dose assessments. The old tower upper instruments were located at an elevation of approximately 40 meters. The lower instruments were located at an elevation of approximately 10 meters. The new tower upper instruments are located at an elevation of approximately 60 meters with the lower instruments at an elevation of approximately 10 meters. This difference in elevation complies with Regulatory Guidance 1.23. This change does not decrease the effectiveness of the Emergency Plan.
The frequency of performing exercises has been changed in this Emergency Plan revision to reflect the revision to 10CFR50 Appendix E that became effective on July 16,1996. This change does not decrease the effectiveness of the Emergency Plan.
The Emergency Plan was revised to reference the Standard Operating Procedure for early notification and evacuation of the Carowinds amusement park and the responsible lead planning agency for implementation and maintenance of the procedure. This change does not decrease the cffectiveness of the Emergency Plan.

f Subiect Area 1 The responsibilities of the Radiation Protection personnel assigned to accompany a contaminated injury in the ambulance and the OSC Security responsibilities have been changed. These changes do not decrease the effectiveness of the Catawba Nuclear Station Emergency Plan. The justification for this statement is as follows:
The need for Radiation Protection personnel to accompany a contaminated injury in the ambulance has decreased due to the training, provided by both Duke Power and REAC\\TS, of rescue squad and hospital personnelin the handling of contaminated injuries. Radiation Protection personnel may accompany a contaminated injury in the ambulance dependent on the operational needs of the plant.
Duke Power will continue to provide Radiation Protection personnel to the hospital and ambulance survice for decontamination as resources become available. This process reflects the Catawba Nuclear Site agreement with Piedmont Medical Center and Clover Rescue Squad.
The Security function previously performed in the OSC has been combined with the functions performed by the TSC Human Resources Manager. This change in ERO responsibilities allows the Security staff the ability to rapidly respond to security events. The TSC Human Resources Manager provides the coordination link between the ERO and the Security forces. This organization has been successfully tested during integrated drills and exercises Subiect Area 3 The agreement letters with Bethel Volunteer Fire Department and Gaston County Emergency Management have been updated. These updates do not decrease the effectiveness of the Catawba Nuclear Station Emergency Plan.
Subiect Area 4 As a part of the review of Catawba Nuclear Station Emergency Plan Revision 96-1 and 96-2 it was datermined that the EAL associated with Event # 4.1.4, General Emergency, EMF-37 indication on Page D-54 did not reflect the EAL's technical basis. This EAL and the technical basis for this EAL were included in a previous Emergency Plan revision. The Technical Basis was correctly revised ;
however, the EAL on Page D-54 was not correctly revised by the previous Emergency Plan revision.
Each EPZ state and county has reviewed and accepted in writing the EAL as changed in Emergency Plan Revision 96-3. This change does not decrease the effectiveness of the Emergency Plan.
Subject Area 6 The North Carolina EOC is now staffed 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> per day.
