'8 jg UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION E WASHINGTON, D. C. 20555 %...../ DEC 31 ET MEMORANDUM FOR: Victor Stello, Jr., Chairman Committee to Review Generic Requirements FROM: James M. Taylor, Director Office of Inspection and Enforcement
SUBJECT:
IE INFORMATION NOTICE REGARDING "NRC ON-SCENE RESPONSE DURING AN EMERGENCY" This is to request that the Committee to Review Generic Requirements review the enclosed proposed IE Information Notice regarding "NRC On-Scene Response During an Emergency." Although IE believes no backfit is contained in the draft information notice, this area is sensitive and a review by the CRGR would be beneficial. Prior to and particularly following the NRC participation in the Federal Field Exercise (FFE) at the St. Lucie Nuclear Generation Station, there has been considerable industry interest and concern with regard to the size and scope of this agency's field response to an emergency. The concern has been that an expanded NRC site team, exemplified by the one employed by Region II at the FFE, would exceed the present guidance on space to be provided for the NRC in the Technical Support Center and the Emergency Operations Facility. Licensees have expressed concern that the RII FFE response represented a potential new space requirement that would be backfit onto licensee emergency response facilities. The purpose of this information notice is to make clear (after a careful review and revision process involving all the regions) the range and function.pf a typical expanded site team. We do not anticipate that in any field response the entire expanded site team complement would automatically be deployed to the field. The first wave of an NRC site team remains at about 15 core positions to cover the anticipated initial emergency response functions. The Expanded Activation Site Team document then serves as a blueprint to enhance the NRC site team, as necessary, to respond to the particular emergency. It should be noted that this additional staff is deployed to various facilities, many of which are operated by other organizations than the affected licensee. This explanation has been included in discussions with licensees during FEMA hosted regional meetings to feed back the St. Lucie experience and explain the federal response capability. f

^ s . F-4 Victor Stello, Jr., Chairman The information notice stresses the point that this information should in no way be construed as constituting additional requirements or requesting a backfit of new or existing emergency response facilities. Where licensee facilities cannot accommodate more NRC staff than described in current guidance, NRC regional staff will work with licensees to arrive at creative solutions so that NRC can carry out its identified functions and roles. This may include helping NRC identify alternate space in the area and methods of communicating and sharing data. The Expanded Activation Site Team document was developed as a ready reference in the event an expanded NRC response is needed. We believe that the informa-tion and concepts included in this document would be extremely useful for licensees in enhancing their understanding of how NRC will respond to an emergency. James M. Taylor, Director Office of Inspection and Enforcement

~ s. ~.;.. t SSINS No.: 6835 IN 85-XX UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION OFFICE OF INSPECTION AND ENFORCEMENT WASHINGTON, D.C. 20555 November 1985 IE INFORMATION NOTICE N0. 85-XX: NRC ON-SCENE RESPONSE DURING AN EMERGENCY Addressees: All nuclear power reactor facilities holding an operating license (OL) or a construction permit (CP).
Purpose:
This information notice describes the planned composition and location of the NRC site team during a response to a significant power reactor emergency. It is expected that addressees will review the information provided for applica-bility. This information notice does not require the modification of emergency. response facilities to accommodate a full NRC response to an emergency. Suggestions contained in this notice do not constitute NRC requirements; therefore no specific action or written response is required. t
Background:
The Commission has defined the role of the NRC in the event of a significant emergency at a nuclear power reactor facility by delineating the following tasks: monitor the licensee to assure appropriate protective actions are being recommended to offsite authorities support the licensee support offsite authorities, including confirming the licensee's recommen-dations to offsite authorities keep other Federal agencies and entities informed of the status of the incident keep the media informed of the NRC's knowledge of the status of the situation Over the past two years the Federal agencies have been developing a comprehen-sive Federal plan which desexibes the manner in which twelve Federal agencies will respond to any paacetime radiological incident. This plan, the Federal Radiological Emergency Response Plan (FRERP), was published in the Federal Register on September 12, 1984. A copy is enclosed for your convenience.

3f - 8 3 IN 85-XX 3 November' 1985 Page 2 of 3 Utilities have been invited to attend conferences on the Federal response to radiological emergencies which described the concept of the FRERP and demon-strated the Federal equipment and capabilities available to respond to these emergencies. These conferences were held in Las Vegas (June 1984), Atlanta (December 1984) and Chicago (April 1985). Description of Circumstances: Based on the designated NRC role and its responsibilities incorporated in the FRERP, the NRC regional offices will initially respond to a significant onsite emergency with a team of about 12-18 individuals. The initial NRC site team will be located at the Technical Support Center and Emergency Operations Facility as previously indicated in NUREG-0696 and NUREG-0845. However, our experience has shown that for a prolonged emergency and the recovery phase there will be additional NRC personnel needed. After about 6-12 hours into an incident, additional NRC site team members will begin arriving. This expanded site team will be able to provide more technical depth, backup personnel, and individuals to carry out those tasks that were not an immediate priority. Individuals to carry out tasks at other organizations' facilities, such as the Federal Radiological Monitoring and Assessment Center, State Emergency Opera-tions Centers and the FEMA Federal Response Center will also be needed. is an organization chart of an expanded site team which we would not expect to be fully in place for at least 24 hours or more. It shows the locations where team members need to interact and includes a functional de-scription of each site team position. Although the team will be composed of approximately 50 individuals per shif t, about half will be located at other organizations' facilities. We are aware that many EOFs have, by design, limited space and cannot accomodate the number of NRC individuals identified as having tasks that are closely related to activities at the EOF. In those cases, we will place these individuals in alternate locations to carry out their tasks and may bring in other accommodations as needed. If there are opportunities at existing facilities to accommodate additional personnel, these could be considered on a case by case basis. Therefore, we do not expect that this expanded response will require the backfit of increased facilities space to accommodate the NRC site team. The NRC staff will need to consider with each licensee, ways of making more effi-cient use of available space, of providing adequate communications, and of identifying alternate space where relevant data could be made available in a timely, reliable manner. NRC regional staff will be working with licensees on a case-by-case basis to coordinate this effort and devise an approach that will ensure that the NRC can perform its full role and functior.s adequately. t 4 -. ~ - r _m... e -.--____----,-r---

INTRODUCTION The Expanded Activation Site Team is an organization for the NRC to employ in the event of an extended incident. This organization is designed for response to incidents at power reactors and does not specifically address transportation or radioactive materials accidents. Although the organization and accompanying functional statements have been conceived with a specific purpose in mind, the intent is for deployment to be flexible. Each region has certain strengths and limitations in their ability to deploy personnel and still maintain an adequate base team to provide logistic support to site team operations and maintain the routine functions of the regional office. The intent is for headquarters to act as a broker for the additional personnel that may be needed to fill out two shifts of this 54 person team. f The NRC regional offices will initially respond to a significant onsite emer-gency with a team of 12-18 individuals. After about 6-12 hours additional site team members would begin arriving. We would not expect the full complement to be in place for at least 24 hours or more. After that time, the organization may be tailored to any unique requirement of the specific incident. It is our hope that the planning in this area will help to expedite the NRC response to power reactor incidents. Appendix 1 is the Expanded Site Team Organization chart which visually shows the overall concept of the Expanded Site Team, including the management and relationship of the various positions. The main body of this document then describes each of these positions; i.e., who the incumbent reports to, where that individual will normally be located and what functions are to be carried out by an individual filling that position. iii

_m 5' i i to the Minutes of CRGR Meeting No. 84 CRGR Review of the Proposed IE Information Notice NRC On-Scene Response During an Emergency l Ken Perkins (IE) presented for CRGR review the proposed IE Infomation Notice, NRC On-Scene Response During An Emergency. The purpose of the Information Notice is to inform power reactor licensees of the size and function of an expanded NRC emergency response team and of NRC's plans to discuss with licensees the logistics (space, location, consnunication, etc) necessary to i support the NRC response team. A copy of the briefing slides used for the presentation is attached. { IE reports that following the Federal Field Exercise at St. Lucie in 1984, a number of licensees asked questions about_the size and scope of NRC's expanded emergency response teams. Licensees expressed a concern that the NRC's expanded emergency response team (exemplified by the St. Lucie exercise) exceeds present NRC requirements / guidance and that the logistics for accommo-2 dating the expanded NRC response team represent additional requiements and a potential backfit. As discussed in the briefing, IE wants to infonn i licensees of NRC's plans for an expanded response team and to reaffirm that { existing planning requirements / guidance in NUREG-0696 for licensee's emergency L response facilities (EOF and TSC) are adequate. IE is not proposing new j requirements / guidance or a backfit of revised requirements / guidance. Additionally, IE stated that their intent is for regional staff in coordination with licensees to survey existing licensee emergency response facilities and support capabilities and to determine what additional measures NRC must provide to enable the NRC to perform its full role and functions. In some cases, j licensees may be able to identify existing available space that could be used by NRC in a major event requiring an expanded NRC response team. Any additional facilities or accommodations that are necessary to accommodate the i expanded NRC response team will be at the expense of the NRC or other agency ) and will not be at licensee expense. The table on page 9 of the attached l briefing package summarizes the IE position on the impact on the licensees of 4 the Information Notice and the expanded NRC response team. l During the presentation, the CRGR noted that the Information Notice does not clearly and succinctly present the same positions offered by IE in the briefing. Specifically, the last paragraph on page 2 of the draft notice implies that on a case-by-case basis the staff will work with the licensees to i identify required modifications to existing or new facilities and to identify logistical support commensurate with the expanded NRC response team. No where in the draft notice does IE state that the existing emergency response facility criteria (NUREG-0696) are adequate nor does the draft notice state that any additional accomodations for the expanded NRC response team (for example i rental of mobile trailers, motel space, temporary telephone communication { lines, etc.) will be at NRC or other agency expense and not at the expense of j the licensee. During the briefing, IE explained that it would pursue its own j arrangements for accommodating an expanded NRC response team and would take j advantage of any additional licensee space and logistics, only if offered. The i costs for additional space would be borne by the NRC. As discussed in the i I i
, briefing, IE proposes to ask licensees to work with the NRC in reviewing existing emergency response facilities so that NRC can develop plans and identify special arrangements which NRC must make to accommodate an expanded emergency response team. IE stated they do not plan to exercise or test the plan for an expanded NRC response team as part of their annual exercises for each region. The plan may only be used in a major event or the Federal Field Exercises which occur about once every 3 years. CRGR recommended that IE revise the Information Notice to clearly and succinctly state the above conclusions and positions as discussed in the briefing. Regarding the detailed function statements for the 54 members of the expanded NRC response team (28 pages of the attachment to the draft Information Notice), the CRGR recommended that IE publish the detailed description of the expanded response team separate from the Information Notice and then revise the notice to reference the then previously published description of the expanded response team. IE decided to make the changes to the draft Information Notice recommended by the CRGR. IE was asked to coordinate the final revised Information Notice with the CRGR Chairman. Additionally, IE suggested that an information briefing to the ED0 should be scheduled in the near future to inform the ED0 of recent changes, present plans, and direction of the NRC emergency response and preparedness program. The CRGR recommended that IE pursue this matter directly with the EDO.
