Emergency Plan - PORTS September 5,1997 Rev.12 4.2 ONSITE EMERGENCY RESPONSE ORG ANIZATION The Emergency Response Organization (ERO) is responsible for taking immediate mitigative and corrective actions to minimize the consequences of an incident to workers, public health and safety, and the envirorenent. The ERO is staffed with trained personnel who respond to events and are required to panicipate in formel caining, drills, and exercises. The incident type and severity dictate the level of ERO activation.
The ERO has the following specific functions and responsibilities, depending on the incident and level of response needed to mitigate the problem: event categorization, determination of emergency class, notification, protective action recommendations, management and decision making, control of onsite emergency activities, consequence assessment, medical support, emergency public information, activation and coordination of onsite response resources, security, communications, administrative support, and coordination and liaison with offsite support and response organizations.
The ERO is divided into functional groups as follows:
1.
Field ERO, 2.
EOC cadre, and 3.
Joint Public Information Center (JPIC).
Members of these groups are assigned to on-scene response locations and emergency response centers such as the EOC. Emergency assignments correspond as closely as possible to daily duties. Primary and alternate personnel are assigned to the ERO positions. Assignments are updated periodically. Management ERO positions in each group provide oversight and final authority in the group's decision-making process.
4.2.1 Direction and Coordination The initial ERO consists of the appropriate shift personnel with the PSS or designee as IC. Upon classification of the emergency as an Alert or SAE, the PSS becomes the CM and maintains overall control of the plant during the emergency until relieved. Once the EOC is operational, the General Manager, or designee, relieves the PSS as CM and the overall control of the emergency shifu from the PSS to the CM.
The PSS conducts transition and turnover of command and control authority and responsibility of the CM function in a formal manner by use of specially developed procedural checklists and, if possible, face-to-face briefings. A primary and alternates are identified for the CM.
The order of succession for the CM position is identified in an EPIP and includes the following:
l 1.
PSS 2.
General Manager 3.
Enrichment Plant Manager 4.
Others as designated by the General Manager and trained and qualified as CM.

Emergency Plan-PORTS C)
Rev. 24 August 15, 1998 The exercise scenario manual is provided to the NRC at least 60 days before the exercise.
Drill and exercise controllers and evaluators are trained on the proper conduct of emergency exercis This training includes information on safety precautions, scenario messages, simulated actions, interactions and controller input, evaluation methodology, and critique format.
7.3.2 Quarterly Communications Checks j
1 Communications checks with offsite resporse organizations are conducted on a quarterly basis and include the checking and updating of necessary telephone numbers.
7A CRITIQUES Formal critiques are conducted for key participants, controllers, and evaluators following each exercise. These critiques are conducted by personnel who were not participants, normally emergency management or contractor personnel.
Emergency Management screens all critique comments. Critique items that have safety significance indicate a regulatory violation or reflect serious deficiencies in plan content or implementation are identified p
to the PSS and a Problem Report is initiated. Resulting corrective actions are tracked in the plant managemen b
tracking system in accordance with p; ant procedures. The remaining critique items are submitted to the l
Emergency Management Drill and Exercise Committee, which determines their validity and determines the appropriate method for corrective actions as required by an EPIP.
I Emergency Management tracks corrective actions identified by the Emergency Management Drill and Exercise Committee through completion or implementation. Organization managers are responsible for implementing exercise corrective actions in their respective functional areas.
7.5 PROGRAM AUDIT l
The Emergency Management Program is audited in accordance with Section 2.18 of the QAP to l
ensure adequate and effective program function. This ensures that changes in plant layout are included in revisions to the Plan. The scope of the audit includes the Plan and the EPIPS, training activities, exercise deficiencies, emergency facilities, equipment, and supplies, and those records associated with offsite n

- o-1 Emergency Plan-PORTS August 15,1998 Rev.24 support agency interface. Audit personnel do not have direct responsibilities for implementing the Emergency Management Program and are qualified according to established procedures.
Procedures provide measures that ensure that audit personnel are provided with appropriate training so that they are competent to perform the required audits. Procedures also require that lead auditors meet the training and experience re4:.irements described in Section 2.2.4 of the Quality Assurance Program. The qualification and requalification of lead auditors is performed in accordance with Supplement 2S-3 to ASME NQA-1-1989. Technical specialists may occasionally participate as audit team members provided that they receive the required indoctrination and guidance during the audit.
Procedures require that Emergency Management investigate adverse audit findings and schedule corrective actions that prescribe measures to prevent recurrence. The auditing organization evaluates the adequacy of the written responses.
Procedures require that follow-up actions be taken to verify that corrective actions be completed as scheduled.
7.6 MAINTENANCE AND INVENTORY OF EMERGENCY EQUIPMENT, INSTRUMENTATION, AND SUPPLIES Adequate equipment and supplies are kept available, properly stored, and maintained in operable status for emergency response personnel to perform their respective duties and responsibilities. This includes equipment and materials for radiological and toxicological monitoring, protective clothing, fire fighting equipment, sampling equipment, respiratory protection equipment and emergency air supplies, damage control materials, dedicated spare parts, radios, telephones, vehicles, and administrative supplies.
The manager of Emergency Management has an administrative oversight responsibility for the quarterly inventory and inspection of emergency equipment and supplies. Identified deficiencies are corrected in a responsible period of time.
Emergency equipment and instruments are inspected, inventoried, and operationally tested quarterly and after each use. The appropriate groups manually track emergency equipment and supplies, i.e.,
respirators and medical supplies that have shelf-lives.
Sufficient reserves of emergency equipment and instruments are available to replace emergency equipraent that is removed for calibration or repair. Emergency instruments are calibrated at the intervals specified for each type of instrument. A summary report of each inventory and inspection is prepared and submitted as Emergency Management documentation.
7.7 LETTERS OF AGREEMENT Changes to the Plan are communicated to the appropriate offsite response organizations. Letters of Agreement with offsite support organizations and agencies are reviewed and updated every four years or more frequently if needed. A change in original signatory to a given Letter of Agreement does not in itself require l
revision of that letter. A change in applicability of content of a Letter of Agreement, however, does require a revision to that letter. Letters of Agreement are identified in Appendix B.
