BYRON 1986 GSEP EXERCISE
" SCOPE OF PARTICIPATION" Commonwealth Edison will participate in the Byron Station exercise by activating the on-site emergency response organization and the off-site emergency response organization as appropriate, subject to limitations that may become necessary to provide for safe efficient operation of Byron station and other CECO nuclear generating stations.
Activation of the TSC and other on-site participants will be conducted on a real time basis during the day time hours. The shift on duty will receive the initial scenario information and respond accordingly.
The Nuclear Duty Person, the Corporate Command Center, and the balance of the Recovery Group will be notified and respond on a real time basis to their designated posts.
The Byron Station May 1986 Exercise is an unannounced event to test the integrated capability of Commonwealth Edison preparedness plans and to assure adequate resources to verify CECO's capability to respond to a simulated emergency.
Commonwealth Edison will demonstrate the capability to make contact with contractors whose assistance would be required by the simulated accident situation, but will not actually incur the expense of using contractor services to simulate emergency response except as prearranged specifically for the exercise.
1 Commonwealth Edison will arrange to provide actual transportation and communication support in accordance with existing agreements to the extent specifically prearranged for the exercise. Commonwealth Edison will provide
' unfore3een actual assistance only to the extent that the resources are available and do not hinder normal operation of the company.
On-site assembly and accountability along with High Range Sampling System (HRSS) will be simulated during this exercise. Assembly and accountability will be demonstrated at a date and time selected to minimize disruption of construction work in progress.
