LP&L RESPONSES TO EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS PROGRAM DEFICIENCIES
DEFICIENCY NO. 8723-01:
Development of the exercise scenario was deficient in that inconsistencies
and lack of appropriate scenario data adversely affected the demonstration
of some exercise objectives.
RESPONSE:
LP&L has implemented a program of independent reviews in the exercise
scenario development process in an attempt to identify and correct scenario
inconsistencies.
Independent reviews of future exercise scenarios will be
conducted by the Waterford 3 Quality Asaurance Department or the Waterford
3 Nuclear Operations Support and Assessments Department and comments
resolved prior to the conduct of the exercise.
LP&L's planned use of the Waterford 3 Simulator for the development of
future exercise scens-ios should also serve to assist in alleviating
scenario development problems.
DEFICIENCY NO. 8723-02:
Initial habitability determinations for the OSC were not adequate.
RESPONSE:
The exercise problem with inadequate habitability surveys in the
Operational Support Center (OSC) has been reviewed with Health Physics
Department personnel.
Proper response measures namely, completion of
habitability surveys in a timely manner, proper utilization of the
continuous air monitor, were addressed.
Emergency response organization personnel training lesson plans for the
Radiological Controls Coordinator and Health Physics technicians responding
to the OSC will be revised to reflect emphasis on the determination of
initial and continuing habitability of the 050.
This will be completed by
March 1, 1988.
,
DEFICIENCY No. 8723-03:
Procedures for gas-free habitability survey were not followed for simulated
entries into the reactor containment.
RESPONSE:
The problem related to the failure to follow procedures for gas-free
habitability surveys during the exercise has been reviewed with Health
Physics Department personnel. Proper response measures (including sampling
of containment atmosphere prior to entry, use of SCBAs for all entries
until habitability surveys indicate protective measures may be relaxed)
were addressed.

Emergency response organization personnel training lesson plans for the
Radiological Controls Coordinator, Health Physics Coordinator, Health
Physics Coordinator Assistant and Health Physics technicians responding to
the OSC will be revised to reflect emphasis on the need to properly assess
the environment of confined spaces during emergencies.
This will be
completed by March 1, 1988.
DEFICIENCY NO. 872?-04:
l
l
A repair team failed to comply with teentry requirements to stay with
health physics personnel.
RESPONSE:
The requirement to stay with Health Physics personnel during reentry
activities in an emergency has been reviewed with site personnel in the
December plant safety meetings. This item har also been reviewed with
Health Physics Department personnel.
Emergency response organization personnel training lesson plans for the OSC
Supervisor, Radiological Controls Coordinator, OSC Manpower personnel end
l
Health Physics technicians will be revised to reinforce this requirement.
l
This will be completed by March 1, 1988.
