Docket No.
50-416 Grand Gulf Nuclear Station License No.-
NPF-29 During an NRC inspection conducted from March 23 through May 10,1997, a violation of NRC requirements was identified. In accordance with the " General Statement of Policy and Procedure for NRC Enforcement Actions," NUREG-1600, the violation is listed below:
10 CFR 50.54(q) states that a licensee authorized to possess and operate a nuclear power reactor shall follow and maintain in effect emergency plans which meet the standards in 50.47(b) and the requirements in Appendix E of this part.
Appendix A to Grand Gulf Nuclear Station Emergency Plan, List of Procedures that implement the Emergency Plan, includes Procedure 01-S-10-6, " Emergency Response Organization."
Procedure 01-S-10-6, " Emergency Response Organization," Revision 7, requires that personnel assigned to the emergency response organization must, during the scheduled on-call period, ensure that they are available to respond within the required time. Procedure 01-S-10-6 also requires that personnel assigned to the emergency response organization must, if circumstances prohibit response within the required times, ensure that an alternate (from the same emergency response position) has agreed to and is available for emergency response coverage, and notify Emergency Preparedness of the arrangements made.
Contrary to the above, on April 24,1997, the licensee failed to ensure that a qualified individual was available to respond for the emergency response organization position of Offsite Emergency Coordinator.
