.Open Item 83 - (456/86-021-03 and 457/86-019-03)
Prior to Fuel Load, the applicant must re-evaluate the Shift Foreman's multiple emergency assignments to ensure manning requirements are met t-during fires and/or other GSEP events which may warrant OSC activation.
(456/86021-03; 457/86019-03) 06/21/86 Response Braidwood Station has assigned three (3) Shift Foremen to each shift.
This helps ensure manning requirements are met in the event of an i
emergency. The Shift Foremen from the unaffected unit are assigned Fire Chief and OSC Director responsibilities.
If a GSEP condition were to occur and a Shift Foreman were unavailable to act as OSC Director, the Rad /Chen Foreman as OSC Supervisor would step in and fulfill the OSC Director responsibilities in accordance with the implementing procedures. All Rad /Chen Foremen have been trained to be OSC Directors in the event the Shift Foreman is unable to fill the position.
Further, there are three fire protection personnel who could be available j
to relieve the shift Foremen at the fire scene. At least one Radwaste Foreman is also available to assist, where needed, in an emergency. This would free the shift Foreman of the inplant duties and allow him to assume OSC responsibilities.
Lastly, if the event were to occur during off-hours, staff augmentation includes Rad / Chem support personnel, 2 at the Alert, 4 at Site or General meergency. This list includes all the Rad /Chen Foremen. Upon their arrival in the OSC, one support person is assigned to assist in the OSC.
Should the Shift Foreman be unavailable, and the on-shift Rad / Chem Foreman be the OSC Director, the support person fulfills the OSC Supervisor responsibilities, thereby ensuring adequate OSC supervision.
Although the Braidwood Technical Specifications and FSAR requirements state only one Shift Foreman, this is the minimum legal manning requirement for operating the unit. To restate, it is the intent of Braidwood to staff three Shift Foremen on each shift to ensure adequate coverage in an emergency.

i No further actions are warranted at this time. This item is considered complete.
