Attachment A 1.
Section 2.1.2 previously stated that " Flow to the precipitation column will be terminated by the following process conditions: (1) high or low level." This was changed to "(1) high precipitator level" only. The engineer in charge of this process felt the original statement was inaccurate in that it would be illogical to control liquid level in the column at the lower level. This is not standard operating procedure. Therefore, "high precipitator level" control is used to prevent overflow of the vessel, and no low level control is used.
2.
Section 2.1.2 (Conversion) previously referred to an alarm "on the centrifuge to l
assure proper bowl balance and spin rotation". This was eliminated because present equipment does not utilize any controls for " bowl balance and spin rotation" whereas the original equipment, circa late 1970's, early 1980's may have. This passage should have been revised when the present equipment was installed, i
3.
Section 7.2 (Training) was revised to specifically note the difference between training given to ERO and non-ERO personnel.
Non-ERO personnel have never been trained on an annual frequency since their only responsibilities during emergency response are to evacuate the building, report to an assembly l
area for an accountability check and to stay at the assembly area until released l
by the Emergency Coordinator. It has not been our experience that annual training is necessary for such limited response. actions. This revision, therefore,
)
was to remove the " inference" which you perceived that all plant personnel receive annual emergency response training.

4.
The logic flow charts were not intended to address any and all emergency response examples as noted in the SEP nor in Emergency Procedure A-04, Rev.
l 2, dated 8/25/97.
Ilowever, for the sake of clarity and consistency, the examples which you note will be included in the next revision of the referenced procedure.
