SUMMARY

DESCRIPTION This evaluation supports a request to amend the renewed Operating License No. NPF-3 for the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station, Unit No. 1 (DBNPS).

The proposed amendment revises the DBNPS Emergency Plan (EP). Energy Harbor Nuclear Corp. (EHNC) completed a staffing analysis of on-shift responsibilities resulting from the impacts associated with the proposed changes. The analysis supports that incorporating the proposed changes listed below will maintain the sites ability to protect public health and safety:

  • Standardize position titles and responsibilities to align with fleet initiatives,
  • Redefine augmented response timeframes as being initiated from event classification rather than Emergency Response Organization (ERO) notification,
  • Extend augmented ERO response times from 30 minutes to 60 minutes and, in some cases, extend 60 minute response times to 90 minutes,
  • Revise Table 5.1 to reflect NRC Revised Table B-1 content for performance of EP functions at DBNPS,
  • Separate command and control functions between the Technical Support Center (TSC) and Emergency Operating Facility (EOF) to streamline augmented ERO staffing and reduce turnover of responsibilities during initial stages of the event,
  • Remove references to the Corporate Assistance Center (CAC) and the Radiological Testing Laboratory (RTL),
  • Revise figures delineating positions associated with facility activation are included in the proposed DBNPS EP,
  • Allows for the transfer of classification, state/local notification, dose assessment, Protective Action Recommendation (PAR), and emergency exposure functions from the Control Room (CR) in advance of 60 minutes when minimum staff positions are met as defined in the proposed emergency plan.

Additionally, a functional analysis of the augmented ERO positions based on extended response times and completion of major tasks was completed, as outlined in NUREG-0654/FEMA-REP-1, Revision 1, and NRC Revised Table B-1, issued June 2018 (ML18022A325).

The changes in staff augmentation times and removal of on-shift Radwaste Operator (RWO) and maintenance positions are considered a reduction in DBNPS EP effectiveness as defined in 10 CFR 50.54(q)(1)(iv). In accordance with 10 CFR 50.54(q)(4), changes to a licensees emergency plan that reduce the effectiveness of the plan may not be implemented without prior Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) approval and are to be submitted as a License Amendment Request (LAR) in accordance with 10 CFR 50.90.

Following emergence from bankruptcy and the assignment of plant properties, the

Evaluation of Proposed License Amendment Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Page 3 of 35 Davis-Besse property parcels and mineral rights which comprise the Exclusion Area and the Site Area Boundary are no longer wholly owned by either Energy Harbor Corp. or its subsidiary Energy Harbor Nuclear Generation LLC. This issue has been entered into the corrective action program and is being addressed through legal negotiations between Energy Harbor Corp. and FirstEnergy Corp. The current status of these parcels does not impact the ability to effectively implement the emergency plan and does not impact this submittal.

2.0 DETAILED DESCRIPTION 2.1 DBNPS Emergency Plan Background The last DBNPS EP that was reviewed and approved by the NRC in staffing was Revision 4. This revision was approved by NRC Safety Evaluation Report (SER) dated June 27, 1983. As approved by NRC, the DBNPS EP contained the following categories of augmented response timeframes:

  • 30-minute normal working hour response
  • 60-minute off-hour response
  • Standard 60-minute response
  • 1-2 hour response The response time requirements applied to key positions met the intent of the guidance of NUREG-0654, Revision 1. These time goals were shown in DBNPS EP Table 5-1, Manpower, Location and Response Considerations for Emergencies.

Table 5.3, Shift Manning, was added in response to NRC letter dated March 23, 1982, Appendix B, Preparedness Improvement Items, Item 2, which recommended that the personnel call out list be prioritized to assure that expertise required in Table B-1 of NUREG-0654 could be identified. The site response dated April 20, 1982, to the NRC letter identified that Revision 4 of the DBNPS EP would include a revision of Administrative Memo No. 37, to identify personnel meeting Table B-1 functions.

In Revision 4, DBNPS maintained three on-site Emergency Response Facility (ERFs),

which augmented the on-shift staff with activation of the TSC, Operations Support Center (OSC), and Emergency Control Center (ECC) at the alert or higher classification.

Additional corporate support was available from the Toledo Edison Company (TED)

Corporate Emergency Response Organization (CERO) located at the emergency support center in Toledo, Ohio. Provision of information to the news media was the responsibility of the corporate organization. In Revision 8, the facility responsible for provision of public information was changed to the Joint Public Information Center (JPIC) housed at the ECC.

In Revision 25, the ECC was renamed the Emergency Operations Facility (EOF) and the

Evaluation of Proposed License Amendment Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Page 4 of 35 CERO was renamed the Corporate Assistance Center (CAC). In Revision 26, the JPIC was renamed the Joint Information Center (JIC).

During an emergency, the shift manager initially assumes the responsibility as Emergency Director (ED). Emergency response by on-shift staff is directed by the ED from the CR until relieved by an augmenting staff with the activation of ERFs.

DBNPS has maintained the four standard levels of emergency classification as described in NUREG-0654, Revision 1. The current EP includes activation of the TSC, OSC, and EOF at an alert or higher classification, as well as notification of the CAC.

2.2 Reason for Proposed Changes The proposed changes that reduce on-shift staffing, extend augmentation response times, and streamline augmented positions are needed to address concerns regarding limitations on the number of personnel available to respond to the site in 30 and 60 minutes. Some personnel live far enough away from the plant that they may be precluded from being assigned as responders to the augmented ERO. The alignment of on-shift and augmented ERO positions and the extending of augmentation times increase the population of eligible plant personnel available to fill ERO positions and add valuable expertise. The proposed changes will not be applied as permission to delay response to an event.

Changes to on-shift staffing are related to the removal of references to positions not performing EP functions or those positions whose function is governed by other programs such as chemistry, fire, and security. The diverse and redundant nature of the emergency core cooling system (ECCS) precludes the need for maintenance activities as part of the initial response to an event. As a result, the proposed change removes the performance of maintenance functions on shift. Details associated with ECCS are addressed in Section 3.2.5 of this request. The proposed change revises response for augmentation of the electrical and mechanical maintenance positions at 60 minutes from two to one each and extends augmentation of an Instrument and Controls (I&C) maintenance position to 90 minutes while removing the requirement for augmentation of a second, I&C maintenance position in accordance with NUREG-0654, Revision 1.

The proposed change adds the definition of facility activation as it relates to ERFs readiness to accept emergency response functions and standardizes the criteria to better align with NRC guidance. The proposed change defines activation criteria to clearly identify the positions that must be filled in the TSC, OSC, and EOF so that transfer of command and control functions (classification, notification, protective action recommendations, dose assessment, emergency exposure authorization) from the CR can be completed and on-shift personnel can be relieved of these duties. For the OSC activated corresponds to the position required to transfer oversight of in-plant teams from the control room. The term staffed is applied to the JIC, which does not have responsibility for any command and control actions. This change allows for the transfer of command and control functions from the CR in advance of 60 minutes once minimum

Evaluation of Proposed License Amendment Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Page 5 of 35 staff positions are filled.

The NRC Safety Evaluation Report (SER) that approved DBNPS EP, Revision 4, dated June 27, 1983, noted that augmented response times were based on the time of ERO notification. The proposed change revises this standard such that the response will be based on the time of event classification. Elimination of 30-minute normal working hour augmented response timeframes and the transition of response times from the point of ERO notification to event declaration results in a net extension of day-shift augmented response of up to 30 minutes. For off-hours augmentation, maintaining the 60-minute response time along with the transition of the augmentation start time from the point of ERO notification to event classification results in a net reduction of off-hours augmented response of up to 15 minutes.

References to the CAC, a company facility that receives support from other company facilities throughout the service districts, was eliminated to better align site emergency response processes with regulatory guidance documents. Inclusion of a corporate support organization in Revision 4 of the DBNPS EP was based on company support capability and not associated with a specific commitment or performance deficiency.

The corporate organization does not have responsibility for performance of any activity associated with implementation of the DBNPS EP and will be referenced in site procedures as applicable.

The proposed changes were evaluated in accordance with 10 CFR 50, Appendix E.IV.A.9. The evaluation did not reveal any conflicting duties for on-shift personnel because of the proposed changes and the EP continues to meet the requirements of NUREG-0654 Table B-1 guidance. Details on the impact of the proposed changes are discussed in Section 3.2.

The changes in on-shift staffing and augmentation response times are considered a reduction in emergency plan effectiveness as defined in 10 CFR 50.54(q)(1)(iv). In accordance with 10 CFR 50.54(q)(4), changes to a licensee's emergency plan that reduce the effectiveness of the plan shall be submitted for NRC approval as an amendment application in accordance with 10 CFR 50.90.

A table summarizing current emergency response position and functions compared to the proposed changes is included as Attachment 3. The changes identified in the table do not reflect a re-design of the ERO but only necessary reassignment of responsibilities based on the result of the functional analysis.

Conclusion Maintaining an appropriate number of on-shift personnel, crediting additional on-shift staff positions, technological advances available for on-shift responders, extending augmentation response times to 60 and 90 minutes and alignment of ERO positions to EP functions are practical and prudent alternate methods of ensuring effective and timely emergency response augmentation.

Evaluation of Proposed License Amendment Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Page 6 of 35 Details associated with changes to the on-shift ERO, revised augmented ERO and revised key responsibilities and tasks as identified in NUREG-0654, Revision 1, are included in Section 3.2.

3.0 TECHNICAL EVALUATION

3.1 Technical Justification This section describes technical changes in plant systems, dose assessment, procedures and training that have been completed to better support on-shift functions and ease operator burden. An on-shift analysis utilizing NEI 10-05, Assessment of On-Shift Emergency Response Organization Staffing and Capabilities, methodology was completed and determined that the proposed changes did not result in conflicting duties for on-shift personnel.

3.1.1 Plant Computer System

Evaluation of Proposed License Amendment Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Page 12 of 35 In the 1980s, the plant computer systems installed in the DBNPS CR included a combination of the plant computer, the Plant Process Computer System (PPCS), the Safety Parameter Display System (SPDS), the Data Acquisition and Display System (DADS), which was a plant computer system that accessed SPDS and miscellaneous applications such as core monitoring software, and meteorological data system. The systems were not integrated, and it was necessary for operators to utilize multiple computers and displays during routine and emergency operations.

Since the 1980s, new computer systems have been installed and existing systems have been upgraded and integrated. These design changes included the installation of an Integrated Control System (ICS), Digital Electro-Hydraulic Control System (DEHC),

Control Rod Drive System (CRDS), and Radiation Data digital networked recorders.

The design changes also included an upgrade of the plant computer and SPDS with an Integrated Plant Computer System (IPCS) that allowed the addition of the systems described above. The system integration added additional displays, and the user interfaces were modified to increase the number of plant parameters that could be accessed through the IPCS. In addition to the listed computer systems, a site Plant Information (PI) system was installed to allow archiving and trending of plant data accessible to control room operators and all site personnel via the business network.

The IPCS is an integrated system that gathers the required plant data, stores, and processes that data, generates visual displays for the operator and other personnel who need plant status information, and provides records of transient events. The basic components of IPCS are the Data Acquisition System (DAS), the central processor units, and the Satellite Display Station (SDS) workstations.

The SDS workstations consist of a display and keyboard. The display generates a variety of graphic real-time displays that are available on command from the keyboard.

The displays can show critical plant parameters such as water levels, temperatures, pressures, flows, and status of pumps, valves, and other equipment. More significantly, they provide the plant operator with a central display of critical symptoms of the plant conditions, which assists the operator in entering and following the Emergency Operating Procedures (EOPs) and achieving the required actions.

In summary, the benefits of the new and upgraded computer systems include:

  • Improved plant monitoring capability.
  • Improved graphical displays.
  • Real time read-only plant data available on personal computers.
  • Real time in-plant monitoring of conditions and trends.

3.1.2 Dose Assessment The plant computer system has specific screens designed to easily obtain the necessary information for performing offsite dose calculations. These screens include process radiation monitors for the effluent release points (station vent and main steam lines), effluent flow rates, and containment accident range radiation monitors (dose

Evaluation of Proposed License Amendment Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Page 13 of 35 rates), used to determine release concentrations. Separate screens exist for obtaining meteorological data. The plant computer also has dedicated, easily accessed screens dedicated to information to assess core damage. These are included in the Safety Parameters Display System (SPDS) screens of the plant computer system.

The Unified RASCAL Interface (URI) Dose Assessment software is maintained on the plant computer network to provide the ability to perform emergency offsite dose calculations on any of the computers that contain the plant computer data. Dose assessment is initially performed by CR personnel until the EOF is staffed, at which time dose assessment responsibilities are transferred to the EOF. Both the shift manager and shift engineer (STA) are trained and can perform the duty initially, although all licensed operators receive training. Once the EOF is activated, the dose assessment staff performs plant monitoring and calculates offsite releases.

3.1.2.1 Previous on-shift dose assessment Prior to 2002, calculations were performed using software contained in DADS, which was a plant computer system that accessed SPDS data. A sub-program within the system performed offsite dose calculations. The user could access plant effluent and radiation monitor information via the plant computer for calculations. Procedures were maintained for manual calculations of dose projections as well as the use of nomograms for a rapid estimate of the release.

In 2002, DBNPS began using an internally developed software referred to as PCDose for dose assessment. PCDose utilized Excel 97 software that was installed on the SPDS computer for access and control and was available in the control room and EOF.

PCDose received inputs from DBNPS instrumentation via the Plant Process Computer System (PPCS) and SPDS. Inputs included specific radiation elements, flow and pressure transmitters, and meteorological instruments used to estimate a radioactive plume from various DBNPS release paths. Updates for these input parameters were retrieved in real time at a specified time interval. The PCDose software provided calculations for Total Effective Dose Equivalent (TEDE), thyroid dose rates, and total dose throughout the DBNPS 10-mile Emergency Planning Zone (EPZ) for all effluent release pathways. PCDose performed calculations using a straight-line gaussian distribution and allowed dose projections to be performed from field team data. The software provided a graphical depiction of the plume overlaid onto a sub-area map and had a sub-routine that used meteorological data along with dose projections to aid in the determination of PARs. In the event that the software was not available, procedures were maintained for manual calculations of dose projections, as well as the use of nomograms for a rapid estimate of the release.

Between July 2014 and November 2019, DBNPS utilized the Meteorological Information and Dose Assessment System (MIDAS) software to perform dose assessment calculations. The MIDAS software package was installed and operated on designated

Evaluation of Proposed License Amendment Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Page 14 of 35 processors located in the CR and EOF. Inputs for meteorological data, plant effluent radiation monitor data, and other plant status indicators were automatically transmitted into the software from the plant computer. The software was menu driven and provided an option for a rapid dose (Quick Dose) for CR personnel. The software also included an upgrade that provided an ability to simultaneously assess multiple release paths.

MIDAS performed dose calculations employing both straight-line gaussian distribution as well as puff-modeling of the release. MIDAS also provided a graphical representation of the projected plume path, which aided the field monitoring function. Procedures were maintained for manual calculations of dose projections in the event that the dose assessment software was not available.

3.1.2.2 Current on-shift dose assessment The current URI dose assessment software was implemented in November of 2019.

The software is maintained on the plant computer network to provide the ability to perform emergency offsite dose calculations on any of the computers that contain the plant computer data. The URI dose assessment software has two modes of operation:

a rapid mode (used for on-shift dose assessment) and a detailed mode (used for augmented ERO dose assessment). In rapid mode, the URI input options and reports are streamlined to allow the on-shift personnel to perform calculations quickly with minimal impact for on-shift operations. The URI input options are expanded to allow for more precise condition entry and options expanded for conditions that take longer to develop. The detailed mode reports contain more assessment information that is used by the augmented ERO. The software also provides sum assessment mode and combines results from previously completed individual rapid or detailed assessments, to create one summation assessment of all selected releases, in the event of a multiple-pathway release.

URI is the fleet standard dose assessment program. The URI program is tailored to DBNPSs plant configuration, in which the unit-specific inputs establish the source term and conditions to be used in the assessment in a similar format across all URI programs. The URI modelling uses RASCAL modelling. The URI-generated assessment reports are the same format across all URI programs. URI uses a pathway approach, where pathways leading from the source of radioactivity to the environment are determined. Various factors can be applied to each pathway to establish the source term and assessment methodologies available. URI can perform assessments on individual pathways or sum multiple individual pathway assessments into a combined assessment.

URI can perform assessments to either 10 or 50 miles. URI employs both the straight-line gaussian distribution and as well as puff-release approach in its calculations.

URI performs calculations that uses data from effluent radiation monitors and flowrates, effluent and reactor coolant system sample results, reactor coolant system leakage, and field monitoring team data. While the plant specific data is not automatically transferred into the software, the data is easily retrieved by the dose assessment staff and entered into the URI software for calculations. In the event that the software is not available, manual hand calculations remain available to estimate releases.

Evaluation of Proposed License Amendment Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Page 15 of 35 3.1.3 Procedure Improvements 3.1.3.1 Emergency Operating Procedures (EOPs)

EOPs have been improved through internal operating experience and through industry initiatives that have driven standards developed by the Pressurized Water Reactor Owners Group (PWROG). EOPs now use a symptom-based approach that demands less assessment and interpretation of plant conditions by the operating crews. The EOPs interface well with technology such as the SPDS and plant computer.

Additionally, the EOP maintenance program has been revised to incorporate requirements for documenting and maintaining the currency of the bases and deviation documents for the EOPs. Overall, the improvements made to EOPs and the EOP maintenance process reduce the operators reliance on the on-shift emergency response organization during the initial phase of the event.

3.1.3.2 Emergency Action Levels (EALs)

In 2017, DBNPS updated the classification methodology to NEI 99-01, Development of Emergency Action Levels for Non-Passive Reactors, Revision 6. EALs now incorporate guidance that has simplified the classification process, including the use of an overview matrix of EAL initiating conditions and threshold values that streamlines the process of evaluating EALs against plant conditions. The streamlined process allows the on-shift operators to focus on event mitigating actions without the aid of the emergency response organization during the initial phase of any event.

3.1.4 Training Improvements 3.1.4.1 Operations Training Operations training is administered through the application of the Systematic Approach to Training (SAT) to ensure that training is conducted to the industry-accepted standards required to achieve and maintain accreditation by the National Academy of Nuclear Training.

A dynamic reference plant simulator is used during Operations training to provide hands-on experience and practice in the operation of the nuclear control room during normal, abnormal, and emergency plant conditions in accordance with ACAD 07-002, Guidelines for Simulator Training. Out of the box simulator performance evaluations are an integral component to the requalification training cycle. The EHNC fleet training procedures describe the conduct of crew-specific simulator training. Evaluation scenarios are designed to be realistic and provide an opportunity for performance evaluation during a wide range of plant operating conditions including emergency conditions that require implementation of the stations EOPs. The simulator training scenarios can vary in both length and complexity with some scenarios running 90-105 minutes. The proficiency of the control room team is evaluated in the areas of transient

Evaluation of Proposed License Amendment Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Page 16 of 35 and accident analysis and control, severe accident management, the site emergency plan, and teamwork and communications in accordance with ACAD 07-001, Guidelines for the Continuing Training of Licensed Personnel.

3.1.4.2 Shift Technical Advisor Training Shift Technical Advisor (STA) training was developed to train the STA as an advisor to the control room team in accordance with the guidelines of NUREG-0737, Clarification of TMI Action Plan Requirements. In 2014, INPO revised training guidelines as detailed in ACAD 14-002, Guidelines for Training and Qualifications of Shift Technical Advisors.

The DBNPS STA training and qualification program adheres to the requirements of ACAD 14-002. The STA performs independent assessments of plant parameters, provides recommendations on appropriate corrective actions to restore plant parameters to acceptable values, and assesses whether core damage has occurred or appears imminent. The STA also advises the shift manager as to level of emergency classification and actions necessary to terminate or mitigate the consequences of the given situation.

3.1.5 Improvement Summary Improvements to equipment, procedures, and training that have occurred since initial approval of the DBNPS EP have resulted in a significant increase in the knowledge and capabilities of on-shift personnel. Based on these improvements, it is concluded that there would be no significant degradation or loss of any functional capability as a result of the proposed changes in on-shift staff, augmentation times, facility activation criteria or re-alignment of augmented positions.

3.2 Functional Analysis This analysis evaluates the impact of extending the augmentation times through the ability of the on-shift staff to perform the major tasks for the major functional areas of the DBNPS EP. The analysis demonstrates that no degradation or loss of function would occur as a result of the proposed changes.

The following is the result of the functional analysis performed for the areas as described in NUREG-0654, Revision 1, Table B-1 as well as the NRC Revised Table B-1 issued in June 2018 (ML18022A352). In general, the analysis is organized to provide details for each functional area for (a) DBNPS Plan Revision 4, (b) the current DBNPS EP and (c) the proposed DBNPS EP.

3.2.1 Plant Operations and Assessment of Operational Aspects NUREG-0654, Revision 1 assumes the on-shift staff will perform plant operations and assessment of operational aspects functions throughout the emergency. NRC Revised Table B-1 replaced plant operations and assessment of operational aspects functions with command and control and emergency classifications functions. The revision placed

Evaluation of Proposed License Amendment Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Page 17 of 35 greater focus on performance of emergency preparedness functions performed by plant operations personnel.

In the proposed change, staffing levels associated with plant operations are revised to reflect only those with positions performing emergency preparedness functions of classification, notification, protective actions/dose assessment, core damage assessment and oversight of on-shift ERO in order to better align the plan with NRC Revised Table B-1.

3.2.2 Emergency Direction and Control (Command and Control, Emergency Classification)

NUREG-0654, Revision 1 guidance indicates that the shift supervisor or STA assumes this function as a collateral duty, where responsibility for overall direction of facility response may be transferred when ERFs are fully staffed. NRC Revised Table B-1 identifies a position responsible for overall command and control of the ERO, EAL approval, PAR approval, and authorization of personnel dose extensions, as well as a position responsible for evaluation of plant conditions and classification recommendations as an ancillary duty.

a. In Revision 4 of the DBNPS EP, the shift supervisor would assume the duties of interim Emergency Duty Officer (EDO) and would be responsible for emergency response efforts until relieved by a designated EDO. The EP also identified an off-hour augmented EDO on-call, with a 60-minute response time, who reported to the ECC. In Revision 10, the on-call EDO position was renamed the Emergency Assistant Plant Manager (EAPM). This position maintained the 60-minute off-hour response time and reported to the CR to relieve the interim EDO of event related responsibilities. Transfer of this function to the ED in the ECC was completed upon staffing of that position. The interim EDO position on-shift was renamed the Emergency Director (ED) in Revision 11.
b. The current revision of the DBNPS EP maintains the Revision 11 transition from the Shift Manager/ED to the EAPM upon arrival in the CR with subsequent transfer of command and control functions to the ED in the EOF. The EAPM 60-minute off hour response time as noted in Revision 11 is also maintained.
c. In the proposed EP, the EAPM ERO position would be eliminated, and emergency direction would transition from the CR Shift Manager/ED to the TSC Emergency Coordinator (EC) and EOF Emergency Director (ED) upon activation of these facilities within 60-minutes of an alert or higher classification. Additional support for the shift manager will be provided, if needed, by duty operations personnel and will be managed through operations department procedures. Command and control functions of classification, federal notification and emergency exposure authorization are transferred to the TSC EC while state/local notification, dose assessment, and PAR development functions transition to the ED in the EOF. The proposed revision to the DBNPS EP defines a facility as activated by its respective manager once

Evaluation of Proposed License Amendment Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Page 18 of 35 minimum required staffing has been achieved such that the facility is capable of performing its assigned functions. The time from emergency declaration of a classification of Alert or higher to the time the facility is activated is the augmentation time for emergency responders.

The DBNPS EP minimum staff positions to support activation of the facility within 60 minutes of an alert or higher classification is depicted in Figure 5-2 for the TSC, Figure 5-3 for the OSC, and Figure 5-4 for the EOF, and are listed below:

  • Emergency Coordinator (TSC)
  • Core Hydraulic Engineer (TSC)
  • Radiation Protection Coordinator (TSC)
  • Emergency Director (EOF)
  • Dose Assessment Coordinator (EOF)
  • State/County Communicator (EOF)

The proposed change eliminates the 30-minute normal working hour response requirement and establishes 60-minute and 90-minute response times for the augmented ERO in accordance with NRC Revised Table B-1. As stated in proposed emergency plan Section 1.0, response times under the proposed change are measured from event declaration rather than ERO notification. This change will result in the ability to transition command and control functions of classification from the CR to the applicable ERF earlier than is required during off-hour events in the current DBNPS EP.

The proposed DBNPS EP change was evaluated in accordance with 10 CFR 50, Appendix E.IV.A.9. No conflicting duties for on-shift personnel were identified and therefore, the proposed change continues to meet NUREG-0654 Table B-1 guidance.

This change is acceptable in that it identifies minimum staffing positions in the TSC, OSC, and EOF that enable transfer of the command and control functions of classification in advance of the 60-minute facility activation requirement.

Evaluation of Proposed License Amendment Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Page 19 of 35 3.2.3 Notification/Communication Function Major Functional Area In accordance with NUREG-0654, Revision 1, the notification/communication function included major tasks to notify licensee, state, local, and federal personnel and maintain communications. NRC Revised Table B-1 maintains the function as described in NUREG-0654, Revision 1.

Licensee Notification

a. Revision 4 of the DBNPS EP identified the shift supervisor, acting as interim EDO, as being responsible for notification of key emergency response personnel. In Revision 10, an automated system was implemented to facilitate the call-out process.
b. The current EP maintains the Revision 10 requirement for notification of the ERO by the on-shift ED at the alert or higher classification as well as use of the automated call-out process.
c. The proposed EP maintains the notification requirement of the ERO by the on-shift Emergency Coordinator (formerly the Emergency Director) for augmented ERO in that personnel are notified to respond to the TSC, OSC, EOF, and JIC at an alert or higher classification.

State, Local and Federal Notification

a. Revision 4 of the DBNPS Emergency Plan identified notification of state/local personnel as well as the NRC as a function initially completed by the on-shift shift supervisor. The notification function was augmented during off-hours with three 60-minute communicator positions. In EP Revision 9, the state and county communicator augmented positions were combined into a single position. This change was predicated on the implementation of a direct ringdown phone circuit between the EOCs and the ECC, which allowed a single communicator to perform this task.
b. The current DBNPS EP maintains the Revision 4 on-shift organization for the state, local, and federal notification functions, as well as the Revision 9 off-hours augmented response.
c. The proposed revision to the EP maintains an on-shift resource for performance of the state, local, and federal notification function, eliminates the 30-minute augmented response position, and provides for augmented staffing by two (2) responders at 60 minutes. This change supports the transition of the federal notification function to the TSC and the state and local notification function to the EOF at 60 minutes.

The staffing analysis demonstrated that the on-shift communicator is able to perform the notification task for an additional 30 minutes without conflicts. This change is consistent with NRC Revised Table B-1.

Evaluation of Proposed License Amendment Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Page 20 of 35 3.2.4 Radiological Accident Assessment and Support of Operational Accident Assessment Function (Dose Assessment/Projections, Field Monitoring Teams, Radiation Protection)

In accordance with NUREG-0654, Revision 1, the radiological accident assessment and operational accident assessment functional area includes EOF Director, Offsite dose assessment, Offsite surveys, Onsite (out-of-plant) surveys, In-plant surveys, and Chemistry/Radiochemistry major tasks. NRC Revised Table B-1 revised the functions associated with radiological accident assessment to address radiological aspects only.

Emergency Operations Facility (EOF) Director Major Task Revision 4 of the DBNPS EP identified the ECC as the initial response facility. Accident assessment, evaluation, and recovery functions were initially performed by the CR shift supervisor. In accordance with NUREG-0654, Revision 1, the EC role transferred from the shift supervisor to the EDO when the on-duty EDO activated the ECC. Details regarding direction and control of emergencies are discussed in Section 3.2 of this request.

Offsite Dose Assessment Major Task

a. Revision 4 of the DBNPS EP did not address on-shift response for performance of the offsite dose assessment function. The performance of the function was the responsibility of one individual with Senior Health Physics (HP) expertise within a 30-minute response time. Performance of on-shift dose assessment transitioned from the RP technician to the STA in Revision 8 of the EP. Revision 10 identified the dose assessment coordinator in the ECC as the 60-minute off-hours augmented responder responsible for this function.
b. The current DBNPS EP maintains the Revision 10 requirement for the completion of on-shift dose assessment by the STA on-shift, as well as off-hours augmentation by the dose assessment coordinator within 60-minutes of ERO notification.
c. In the proposed change, responsibility for initial performance of dose assessment by the STA is maintained. The off-hour augmentation time for the dose assessment coordinator is maintained.

The proposed change will not result in extension of the performance of the dose assessment function by on-shift personnel. Performance of the core damage and dose assessment functions is supported by improvements made to plant computer systems as discussed in Section 3.1.1 as well as improvements in the dose assessment software noted in Section 3.1.2.2. These improvements result in minimal user interface and the streamlining of data such that performance of these two activities by a single position improves the efficiency for performance of these tasks.

Evaluation of Proposed License Amendment Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Page 21 of 35 Offsite Surveys Major Task

a. In Revision 4 of the DBNPS EP, offsite radiological monitoring was initiated at a Site Area Emergency (SAE) or higher classification. Each radiation monitoring team (RMT) was normally comprised of two qualified individuals as part of the 60-minute off-hour augmented response. Revision 12 modified the offsite monitoring process to require dispatch of teams at the alert or higher classification and the DBNPS EP was revised to reflect the purchase of three four-wheel drive vehicles that would be available for use by RMTs within about 30 minutes of an event. The addition of this equipment was noted in the 1987 NRC Routine EP Inspection Report. The addition of the equipment was not related to a licensing commitment or an inspection finding nor was it provided as a corrective action to a performance deficiency.
b. The current EP maintains three radiological monitoring teams at 60 minutes off hour augmentation upon declaration of an alert or higher as well as details on RMT vehicle type and number.
c. In the proposed EP, the dispatch of RMTs (RMTs renamed to Field Monitoring Teams [FMTs]) continues to occur at declaration of an alert or higher classification.

The proposed EP reduces the number of RMTs from three to two. The response time for the initial team remains at 60 minutes, the response time for the second team is extended from 60 minutes to 90 minutes.

Initial FMT response primarily involves environmental radiation and contamination assessments, plume tracking, and using dose assessment instrumentation. Actions include, driving to and from field positions, reading dose rate instrumentation and communicating results to the TSC and EOF. The first FMT, augmented at 60 minutes, can effectively track any potential plume, and cover the necessary area to identify whether a plume exists during the early stages of an event. The second team, augmented at 90 minutes, will support continued plume tracking capability as well as sampling activities.

The proposed change also removes references to FMT vehicle numbers, type, and availability. The site will continue to ensure vehicles with appropriate capability are maintained in a state of readiness for immediate response during an event. Details regarding management of FMT vehicles will be maintained in site procedures.

Oversight and direction of FMTs is provided by the FMT Coordinator in the EOF.

This position maintains responsibility for radiological safety of the FMTs. Dispatch of FMTs at 60 and 90 minutes from the alert classification continues to support timely performance of the offsite survey function.

Onsite (out-of-plant) and In-Plant Surveys Major Tasks

Evaluation of Proposed License Amendment Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Page 22 of 35

a. Revision 4 of the DBNPS EP provided for performance of onsite (out-of-plant) and in-plant surveys as an ancillary duty of an on-shift operator. Both the onsite (out-of-plant) and in-plant surveys were augmented during off-hours by four RP technicians responding at 60 minutes. In Revision 10 responsibility for performance of this task was the on-shift RP technician and the number of augmented RP technicians responsible for onsite (out-of-plant) and in-plant surveys was reduced from two to one. This change aligned the site augmented response for this function with NUREG-0654, Revision 1, Table B-1 staffing.
b. The current DBNPS EP maintains the Revision 10 requirement for performance of onsite and in-plant surveys on shift as well as augmentation at 60 minutes by an RP technician.
c. The proposed change maintains the performance of onsite (out-of-plant) and in-plant surveys as a function of the on-shift RP technician, maintains augmentation at 60 minutes by an RP technician, and adds augmentation by an additional RP technician at 90 minutes in accordance with NRC Revised Table B-1.

As previously stated in Section 3.1.1, improvements in plant computer systems have resulted in improved availability of plant data and trending capabilities. This benefit has been extended to data associated with area radiation and plant effluent monitoring. Radiological monitors installed throughout the plant provide detection, measurement, and indication of area radiation, airborne radioactivity concentrations, and process radioactivity concentrations. The area radiation monitoring system provides detection, measurement, and indication of radiation health hazards. In general, area radiation monitors are placed in areas where radiation levels could feasibly increase due to postulated occurrences. Fixed and movable air monitors comprised of particulate, iodine, and gaseous measuring channels provide both audible alarm and visual indications when pre-determined set points are exceeded for airborne radioactivity. The effluent monitoring system monitors liquid and gaseous effluents during actual or potential releases. Additionally, the proposed change recognizes that the onsite area at the site is small enough to allow for monitoring by a single individual and does not require the use of a vehicle to perform this task.

On-shift RP technicians can quickly determine radiological conditions utilizing the plant radiation monitoring systems. System data is displayed on plant desktop computers and this data can be used to brief on-shift operators and response teams to area conditions. This data can also be used to determine areas that may require follow-up RP surveys. Improved availability of live time radiological conditions in the plant allows the RP technicians to provide required information to the shift manager/EC in less time than performance of discrete area surveys while providing the same or better radiological protection capability for site personnel. The result of improved use of technology is the reduction in on-shift burden for RP technicians such that extension of augmented response times does not adversely impact performance of the functions.

Evaluation of Proposed License Amendment Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Page 23 of 35 Chemistry/Radiochemistry Major Task

a. Revision 4 of the DBNPS EP identified performance of the chemistry/radiochemistry function as the responsibility of the Chemistry & Health Physics (C&HP) tester on-shift and an augmenting technician responding at 60 minutes during off hours. In Revision 11, the chemistry function was separated from the RP function. The response was also revised to include a chemistry technician on shift and an augmenting technician responding at 60 minutes during off hours as well as one additional chemistry responder within 1-2 hours of event notification.
b. The current EP maintains the Revision 11 requirement for one on shift and one augmented chemistry technician.
c. The proposed EP revision eliminates the requirement for performance of the chemistry/radiochemistry function on shift as well as augmented staffing for performance of this function.

Performance of chemistry/radiochemistry functions are being removed from the DBNPS EP and will be governed by processes outside the emergency plan. This change is also aligned with NRC Revised Table B-1.

3.2.5 Plant System Engineering, Repair and Corrective Actions Function (Engineering, Repair Team Activities)

In accordance with NUREG-0654, Revision 1, the plant system engineering, repair and corrective actions functional area includes technical support and repair and corrective actions major tasks. NUREG-0654 Table B-1 notes that mechanical maintenance/radwaste operator and electrical maintenance/instrument and control technician expertise may be provided by shift personnel assigned other functions. NRC Revised Table B-1 identifies the engineering function as an evaluation of on-shift reactor conditions and the repair team activities as an activity performed by augmented resources for restoration of ECCS equipment as needed.

Evaluation of Proposed License Amendment Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Page 24 of 35 Technical Support Major Task

a. Revision 4 of the DBNPS EP identified the STA as the on-shift position responsible for performing the assessment of the emergency including reactor core status. The core thermal hydraulics function was augmented at 60 minutes from the time of ERO notification. Additional technical support was augmented at 1-2 hours by the nuclear engineering manager, plant I&C system engineer, and the plant nuclear system engineer. In Revision 10, the 60-minute augmented response was revised to include the TSC engineer manager and the core thermal hydraulic engineer. Response by I&C system, electrical, and mechanical engineers occurred at 1-2 hours after ERO notification.
b. The current EP maintains the Revision 10 requirement for performance of the core thermal hydraulics function by the on-shift STA position as well as the 60-minute and 1-2 hour off-hours augmented responses.
c. The proposed change maintains the on-shift and 60-minute off hours augmented response position responsible for core thermal hydraulics tasks, revises response times for the electrical and mechanical engineers from 1-2 hours to 60 minutes, extends the response time for the engineering coordinator, formerly the TSC engineering manager, to 90 minutes, and removes the reference to the I&C engineer.

Evaluation of the on-shift activities associated with the proposed changes in accordance with 10 CFR 50 Appendix E.IV.A.9, showed that on-shift personnel were able to complete required tasks without conflicts.

Repair and Corrective Actions Major Task

a. In Revision 4 of the DBNPS EP, plant stabilizing functions were completed by on-shift operations personnel. Staff to address repair and corrective actions was augmented through off-hours activation with the addition of one electrician and one I&C technician responding at 30-45 minutes. In addition, one electrical maintenance, one mechanical maintenance, and one radwaste operator responded at 60 minutes.

In Revision 10, the on-shift maintenance resources maintained a 24-hour per day shift rotation consisting of a maintenance foreman, two mechanics, two electricians, and two I&C technicians. The revision aligned the emergency plan with changes in site staffing and was not related to an emergency plan performance deficiency.

b. The current EP eliminated the maintenance foreman position and maintained the on-shift staffing of one mechanic, one electrician, and one I&C technician. The on-shift staff is augmented within 60 minutes with the addition of one mechanic, one electrician, and one I&C technician for a total of two per position.
c. The proposed changes to the DBNPS EP have been revised to reflect mechanical and electrical maintenance personnel arriving within 60 minutes of an alert or higher

Evaluation of Proposed License Amendment Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Page 25 of 35 classification to perform the initial troubleshooting and corrective actions work in the plant. The OSC coordinator position, also arriving within 60 minutes, will direct repair and assessment personnel until the respective discipline supervisors arrive. In addition, the proposed changes to the DBNPS EP will reflect the mechanical maintenance coordinator, electrical maintenance coordinator, I&C coordinator, and I&C personnel positions in the OSC arriving within 90 minutes of an alert or higher classification to provide supervisory oversight for their respective disciplines.

Appendix 3D of the DBNPS Updated Safety Analysis Report (USAR) states that the design of DBNPS meets the intent of 10 CFR 50 Appendix A, General Design Criteria for Nuclear Power Plants, as published on February 20, 1971, and as amended on July 7, 1971. This includes conformance with General Design Criteria (GDC) 35, Emergency Core Cooling, which states:

A system to provide abundant emergency core cooling shall be provided.

The system safety function shall be to transfer heat from the reactor core following any loss of reactor coolant at a rate such that (1) fuel and clad damage that could interfere with continued effective core cooling is prevented and (2) clad metal-water reaction is limited to negligible amounts.

Suitable redundancy in components and features, and suitable interconnections, leak detection, isolation, and containment capabilities shall be provided to assure that for onsite electric power system operation (assuming offsite power is not available) and for offsite electric power system operation (assuming onsite power is not available) the system safety function can be accomplished, assuming a single failure.

To support the objective of the single failure criteria, the DBNPS ECCS, as described in the DBNPS USAR, incorporates a diverse and redundant system design. The DBNPS ECCS consists of a core flooding tank on each of the two RCS cold legs, two redundant high pressure injection pumps, two redundant low pressure injection pumps each with an associated decay heat removal cooler, and one borated water storage tank. The ECCS trains are separated electrically and mechanically to ensure no single failure on any one train would preclude the other train from fulfilling the required safety function.

Normal operating status and deviations from this status are controlled by the DBNPS technical specifications.

System performance is tracked and trended by the site and demonstrates a high degree of reliability. System health requirements are maintained in accordance with NRC performance indicators for system availability and the tracking of functional failures, which are an integral part of the Reactor Oversight Process (ROP).

Additionally, reliability is driven by maintenance rule performance criteria.

Crediting the robust ECCS capability and protection against single point failures provides the basis for removal of maintenance personnel from on-shift, maintaining

Evaluation of Proposed License Amendment Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Page 26 of 35 augmentation response times for mechanical and electrical maintenance technicians and extending response time for I&C maintenance to 90 minutes. As a result, the proposed changes will not result in a reduction in response capability.

3.2.6 Protective Actions (In-Plant) Function (See Radiological Assessment)

In accordance with NUREG-0654, Revision 1, the protective actions functional area includes the radiation protection major task, specifically access control; RP coverage for repair and corrective actions, search and rescue, first aid, and firefighting; personnel monitoring; and dosimetry. NUREG-0654 Table B-1 notes that HP technician expertise may be provided by shift personnel assigned other functions. NRC Revised Table B-1 combines this function with the radiation protection function.

a. Revision 4 of the DBNPS EP provided for performance of the protective action function as an ancillary duty of two on-shift operators and was augmented during off-hours by four HP technicians within 60 minutes. In Revision 10, responsibility for performance of this task transitioned from two on-shift technicians to one technician and was augmented during off-hours by three technicians within 60 minutes and four additional technicians between 1 and 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br />.
b. The current DBNPS EP maintains one on-shift RP technician, one RP technician augmented at 60 minutes, and three RP technicians augmented between 1 and 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br />.
c. The proposed revision adds an RP resource to the on-shift staff for performance of protective action functions, provides for two RP technicians augmented at 60 minutes and an additional two RP technicians augmented at 90 minutes in accordance with NRC Revised Table B-1. These positions will continue to perform activities related to:
  • Access/Control dosimetry
  • Job coverage for repair and corrective actions
  • Personnel monitoring The performance of access control and dosimetry activities is primarily completed through the use of Self-Reading Dosimetry (SRD), which is obtained prior to entry into Radiologically Controlled Areas (RCA). The SRD also unlocks turnstiles to gain access to the RCA. Radiation Work Permits (RWPs) establish the necessary preset warnings and alarms associated with the SRD that assures that the teams dispatched to the in-plant areas to perform any function during a declared emergency will be afforded ample warning prior to exceeding their allowed dose or dose rate. Use of the SRD and RWP process eliminates the need for access control and dosimetry oversight by an RP technician for the initial response actions to an event.

Improvements in plant computer systems, as discussed in Section 3.1.1 and Section

Evaluation of Proposed License Amendment Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Page 27 of 35 3.2.4, allow information on plant radiological conditions to be made readily available to RP technicians. Plant area radiation monitors and ventilation data can be monitored from the plant access control point and allow the protective action RP technician to monitor changes in plant status and provide updates to plant personnel in a timely manner. This improvement in technology enables the on-shift staff to assess plant conditions quickly and efficiently, and with fewer distractions.

Performance of habitability activities are associated with the emergency response facilities after they are staffed by augmented personnel. As augmentation of emergency response staffing and RP technicians occurs simultaneously for each facility under the proposed change, performance of this function is not adversely impacted.

Implemented improvements in technology in the areas of dosimetry, access control and plant monitoring capability at DBNPS have reduced burden for on-shift RP resources and so serves as the basis for extension of response times for augmented resources. The proposed changes to RP response times are aligned with NRC Revised Table B-1 guidance.

3.2.7 Firefighting Function (Not Applicable)

In accordance with NUREG-0654, Revision 1, the firefighting functional area is addressed by use of a fire brigade and managed in accordance with site technical specifications. NRC Revised Table B-1 does not address the firefighting function as this is performed under the site fire protection plan.

a. In Revision 4, of the DBNPS EP, firefighting response was provided by on-shift personnel and augmented by the offsite local fire department.
b. The current EP maintains the firefighting function requirement through the use of on-shift operations personnel who make up the station fire brigade, as well as offsite support as needed.
c. The proposed EP removes the reference to firefighting from Table 5.1.

The proposed change will better align with NRC Revised Table B-1 formatting. The firefighting function will continue to be maintained as a part of the DBNPS fire protection plan. The firefighting function will no longer be described in the DBNPS EP.

Evaluation of Proposed License Amendment Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Page 28 of 35 3.2.8 Rescue Operations and First-Aid Function (Not Applicable)

NUREG-0654, Revision 1, Table B-1 notes that this function may be provided by shift personnel assigned other functions. NRC Revised Table B-1 does not address rescue operations and first-aid as these tasks are outside the purview of the emergency plan.

a. In the DBNPS EP, Revision 4, Rescue Operations and First-Aid were provided as an ancillary duty by two on-shift personnel. The function was augmented by offsite local support organizations.
b. The current EP utilizes one non-licensed operator (NLO) to fulfill rescue operations and first-aid as an ancillary duty.
c. The proposed EP removes the reference to rescue operations and first-aid from Table 5.1.

The proposed change will better align with NRC Revised Table B-1 formatting. The rescue operations and first-aid function will continue to be performed as an ancillary duty by the site fire brigade in accordance with the DBNPS fire protection procedures. Rescue operations and first-aid functions will no longer be described in the DBNPS EP.

3.2.9 Site Access Control and Personnel Accountability Function (Not Applicable)

In NUREG-0654, Revision 1, the site access control and personnel accountability functional area is addressed by security personnel in accordance with the site security plan. NRC Revised Table B-1 does not address site access control as this function is under the purview of the site security plan.

a. In DBNPS Emergency Plan, Revision 4, site access control and accountability is identified as a function of the security personnel on-shift and is detailed in the security plan. In Revision 29, two security positions were added to Table 5-1 in support of this function.
b. The current EP maintains the Revision 29 requirements for on-shift staffing for this major functional area.
c. The proposed EP removes the reference to site access control and personnel accountability functions.

The proposed change will better align with NRC Revised Table B-1 formatting. The access control and accountability functions will continue to be implemented as part of the DBNPS physical security plan.

3.3 Conclusions

Evaluation of Proposed License Amendment Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Page 29 of 35 The proposed changes continue to support the functional areas of the DBNPS EP, continue to ensure the protection of the health and safety of the public and site personnel, and will not present a significant burden to the on-shift personnel.

The elimination of references to on-shift maintenance functions, given the diverse and redundant capabilities of plant systems, does not adversely affect the sites ability to respond to an event.

Removal of references to during normal work hours and extending augmented response times for certain positions from 60 minutes to 90 minutes, based on improved in-plant and effluent monitoring capability, does not adversely impact the sites ability to respond to an event or delay performance of maintenance or radiation protection functions.

Additionally, extension of RP technician augmented response times does not adversely affect performance of radiological assessment nor protective action functions associated with event response. DBNPS has incorporated new technologies in access control, dosimetry, and in-plant monitoring capability to ensure that the emergency response functions identified in the DBNPS EP will continue to be performed. The proposed changes do not result in a reduced ERO capability to effectively respond to an emergency.

Although the ERO staffing augmentation response time is being extended, resulting in an increased ERF activation time, the emergency response functions identified in the DBNPS EP will continue to be performed by the on-shift staff until relieved by augmented ERO responders and will not result in a reduction of the capability of the ERO to effectively respond to the emergency. Therefore, the proposed increase in augmentation response continues to ensure the DBNPS EP will meet 10 CFR 50.54(q)(2), the requirements of 10 CFR 50, Appendix E, and the planning standards of 10 CFR 50.47(b).

4.0 REGULATORY EVALUATION

EHNC proposes to revise the DBNPS EP to extend augmentation times for certain ERO positions and reduce the number of augmented RP positions to align with NRC Revised Table B-1, realign command and control functions between the EOF and TSC, and reassign augmented ERO positions to meet new command and control structure requirements. The proposed amendment would revise plan Sections 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9.

4.1 Applicable Regulatory Requirements/Criteria Title 10 Code of Federal Regulations 50.47(b)(1) and (2):

Evaluation of Proposed License Amendment Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Page 30 of 35 (b) The onsite and, except as provided in paragraph (d) of this section, offsite emergency response plans for nuclear power reactors must meet the following standards:

(1) Primary responsibilities for emergency response by the nuclear facility licensee and by State and local organizations within the Emergency Planning Zones have been assigned, the emergency responsibilities of the various supporting organizations have been specifically established, and each principal response organization has staff to respond and to augment its initial response on a continuous basis.

(2) On-shift facility licensee responsibilities for emergency response are unambiguously defined, adequate staffing to provide initial facility accident response in key functional areas is maintained at all times, timely augmentation of response capabilities is available and the interfaces among various onsite response activities and offsite support and response activities are specified.

The existing DBNPS EP meets the requirements listed above. This proposed amendment application includes, but is not limited to, the reduction of on-shift staffing; standardization of terms, position title and responsibilities; establishment of minimum staffing criteria for the OSC, TSC, and EOF; activation of the TSC, OSC, and EOF within 60 minutes of the declaration of an alert or higher classification; and extension of staff augmentation response times from 30 minutes to 60 minutes and, in some cases, extend 60-minute response times to 90 minutes. The proposed DBNPS EP will continue to meet 10 CFR 50.47(b).

Relevant portions of Title 10 Code of Federal Regulations 50.54(q) are as follows:

(q) EPPs (1)(iv) Reduction in effectiveness means a change in a Plan that results in reducing the licensees capability to perform an Emergency Planning function in the event of a radiological emergency.

(3) A holder of a license under this part, or a combined license under part 52 of this chapter after the Commission makes the finding under § 52.103(g) of this chapter, shall follow and maintain the effectiveness of a Plan that meets the requirements in appendix E to this part and, for nuclear power reactor licensees, the planning standards of § 50.47(b).

(4) The changes to a licensee's Plan that reduce the effectiveness of the plan as defined in paragraph (q)(1)(iv) of this section may not be implemented without prior approval by the NRC. A licensee desiring to make such a change after February 21, 2012, shall submit an application for an amendment to its license. In addition to the filing

Evaluation of Proposed License Amendment Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Page 31 of 35 requirements of §§ 50.90 and 50.91, the request must include all EPP pages affected by that change and must be accompanied by a forwarding letter identifying the change, the reason for the change, and the basis for concluding that the licensee's Plan, as revised, will continue to meet the requirements in appendix E to this part and, for nuclear power reactor licensees, the planning standards of § 50.47(b).

The existing DBNPS EP meets the planning standards of 10 CFR 50.47(b) and 10 CFR 50, Appendix E as required by 10 CFR 50.54(q)(2). This amendment application proposes to extend augmentation times of some ERO positions and reduce the number of augmented RP positions. These proposed changes are considered a reduction in effectiveness as defined in 10 CFR 50.54(q)(1)(iv) and requires NRC approval based on 10 CFR 50.54(q)(4). Therefore, Energy Harbor Nuclear Corp. is submitting this amendment application pursuant to 10 CFR 50.90.

The DBNPS EP will continue to meet the requirements of 10 CFR 50.54(q)(2) by maintaining the effectiveness of the EP such that it meets the requirements of 10 CFR 50, Appendix E, and the planning standards of 10 CFR 50.47(b).

Relevant portions of Title 10 Code of Federal Regulations Part 50 Appendix E.IV are as follows:

A. Organization The organization for coping with radiological emergencies shall be described, including definition of authorities, responsibilities, and duties of individuals assigned to the licensee's emergency organization and the means for notification of such individuals in the event of an emergency. Specifically, the following shall be included:

A.9. By December 24, 2012, for nuclear power reactor licensees, a detailed analysis demonstrating that on-shift personnel assigned EPP implementation functions are not assigned responsibilities that would prevent the timely performance of their assigned functions as specified in the EPP.

The existing DBNPS EP includes a description of the organization, including definition of authorities, responsibilities, and duties of individuals. The current DBNPS EP is in compliance with the 10 CFR 50 Appendix E.IV.A.9. This amendment application proposes extension of augmentation times for some ERO positions, reduction in the number of augmented RP positions, realignment of command and control functions between the EOF and TSC, and reassignment of augmented ERO positions to meet new command and control structure requirements. A staffing analysis has been performed to demonstrate continued compliance with 10 CFR 50, Appendix E.IV.A.9.

The staffing analysis supports acceptability of this increase in staff augmentation times.

The proposed changes to the DBNPS EP will continue to describe the authorities, responsibilities, and duties of these individuals. Therefore, with the changes proposed

Evaluation of Proposed License Amendment Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Page 32 of 35 in the amendment application, the requirements of 10 CFR 50 Appendix E continue to be met.

NUREG-0654/FEMA-REP-1, Revision 1,Section II.B.5 states, in part:

Each licensee shall specify the positions or title and major tasks to be performed by the persons to be assigned to the functional areas of emergency activity. For emergency situations, specific assignments shall be made for all shifts and for plant staff members, both onsite and away from the site. These assignments shall cover the emergency functions in Table B-1 entitled, Minimum Staffing Requirements for Nuclear Power Plant Emergencies. The minimum on-shift staffing levels shall be as indicated in Table B-1. The licensee must be able to augment on-shift capabilities within a short period after declaration of an emergency. This capability shall be as indicated in Table B-1.

NUREG-0654, Revision 1 states general guidance concerning the onsite emergency organization to allow licensees some flexibility in the number of on-shift staff required by emergency plans for response to emergency events. NUREG-0654 guidance recommends that there be, in addition to on-shift personnel, 30-minute and 60-minute responders. The augmented ERO responders assume many managerial, engineering, and administrative duties from the on-shift personnel, allowing them to focus on plant operations. NUREG-0654 also provides the guidance that augmentation time be measured from the declaration of the emergency. The current DBNPS EP staffing in Table 5.1 meets the intent of NRC Revised NUREG-0654 Table B-1. This amendment application proposes to extend the augmentation time for some ERO positions and reduces the number of augmented RP positions. The proposed changes have been evaluated in a staffing analysis performed to meet 10 CFR 50, Appendix E.IV.A.9 requirements. The proposed changes to the DBNPS Plan meet the intent of NUREG-0654, Table B-1. This change is in alignment with NUREG-0654, Revision 1,Section II.B.5.

4.2 Precedent The proposed DBNPS EP changes are similar to changes approved for other licensees, including South Texas Project (ML18159A212), Sequoyah (ML18159A461), Diablo Canyon (ML19196A309) and Browns Ferry (ML20085G896). Furthermore, the proposed DBNPS EP changes evaluated and documented in this submittal continue to meet the standards of 10 CFR 50.47(b) and the requirements of 10 CFR 50, Appendix E.

4.3 No Significant Hazards Consideration Analysis

Evaluation of Proposed License Amendment Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Page 33 of 35 Energy Harbor Nuclear Corp. (EHNC) proposes to revise the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station (DBNPS) Emergency Plan (EP) to extend augmentation times for certain Emergency Response Organization (ERO) positions.

EHNC has evaluated whether or not a significant hazards consideration is involved with the proposed amendment by focusing on the three standards set forth in 10 CFR 50.92, Issuance of amendment, and has determined that the operation of DBNPS in accordance with the proposed amendment presents no significant hazards. The EHNC evaluation against each of the criteria in 10 CFR 50.92 follows.

1. Does the proposed amendment involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated?

Response: No.

This proposed amendment includes, but is not limited to, the reduction of on-shift staffing; standardization of terms, position titles and responsibilities; establishment of minimum staffing criteria for the operations support center (OSC), technical support center (TSC), and emergency operations facility (EOF); activation of the TSC, OSC, and EOF within 60 minutes of the declaration of an alert or higher classification; and extension of staff augmentation response times from 30 minutes to 60 minutes and, in some cases, extend 60 minute response times to 90 minutes. The proposed changes have no effect on normal plant operation or on any accident initiator or precursors and does not impact the function of plant structures, systems, or components (SCCs). The proposed changes do not alter or prevent the ability of the ERO to perform their intended functions to mitigate the consequences of an accident or event. As a result, the proposed changes are determined to not adversely affect the ability to meet the requirements of 10 CFR 50, Appendix E, and the emergency planning standards as described in 10 CFR 50.47(b).

Therefore, the proposed DBNPS EP changes do not involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated.

2. Does the proposed amendment create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated?

Response: No.

The proposed changes do not impact the accident analyses. The changes do not involve a physical alteration of the plant, a change in the method of plant operation, or new operator actions. The proposed changes do not introduce failure modes that could result in a new accident, and the changes do not alter assumptions made in the safety analysis. The proposed changes do not alter or prevent the ability of the ERO to perform its intended function to mitigate the consequences of an accident or event.

Evaluation of Proposed License Amendment Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Page 34 of 35 Therefore, the proposed changes do not create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated.

3. Does the proposed amendment involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety?

Response: No.

Margin of safety is associated with confidence in the ability of the fission product barriers (such as, fuel cladding, reactor coolant system pressure boundary, and containment structure) to limit the level of radiation dose to the public. The proposed change is associated with the DBNPS EP staffing and does not impact operation of the plant or its response to transients or accidents. The change does not affect the technical specifications. The proposed changes do not involve a change in the method of plant operation, and no accident analyses will be affected by these proposed changes. Safety analysis acceptance criteria are not affected by the proposed change. The functional analysis and the shift staffing analysis concluded that extension of augmentation times for certain ERO positions, and reduction of on-shift positions would not significantly affect the ability to perform the required emergency plan tasks. Therefore, the proposed changes are determined to not adversely affect the ability to meet the requirements of 10 CFR 50, Appendix E, and the emergency planning standards as described in 10 CFR 50.47(b). Therefore, the proposed change does not involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety.

Based on the above, EHNC concludes that the proposed amendment does not involve a significant hazards consideration under the standards set forth in 10 CFR 50.92(c), and, accordingly, a finding of "no significant hazards consideration" is justified.

4.4 Conclusions EHNC has evaluated the proposed change against the applicable regulatory requirements and acceptance criteria. The proposed DBNPS EP changes continue to assure that regulatory requirements and emergency planning standards associated with emergency response are met.

Based on the above evaluation, EHNC has determined that operation of the facility in accordance with the proposed changes do not involve a significant hazards consideration as defined in 10 CFR 50.92(c), in that they do not: (1) involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated; (2) create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated; or (3) involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety.

5.0 ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATION

The proposed amendment would change recordkeeping, reporting, or administrative procedures or requirements. However, the proposed amendment does not involve (i) a

Evaluation of Proposed License Amendment Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Page 35 of 35 significant hazards consideration, (ii) a significant change in the types or a significant increase in the amounts of any effluents that may be released offsite, or (iii) a significant increase in individual or cumulative occupational radiation exposure. Accordingly, the proposed amendment meets the eligibility criterion for categorical exclusion set forth in 10 CFR 51.22(c)(10). Therefore, pursuant to 10 CFR 51.22(b), no environmental impact statement or environmental assessment need be prepared in connection with the proposed amendment.

2-1 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX 2.0 SCOPE AND APPLICABILITY The Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Emergency Plan has been developed to provide a description of the station's response during emergencies. The description includes organizational control, equipment, supplies, facilities, and protective actions that may be used in mitigating the consequences of an emergency. Emergency Preparedness exists to provide direction for emergencies varying in severity from relatively minor ones with no health and safety implications to events presenting an actual or potential offsite radiological hazard.

This Emergency Plan is a detailed expansion of the Updated Safety Analysis Report, Section 13.3.

It is intended to satisfy the requirements of Title 10 Code of Federal Regulations, Section 50, Appendix E, Emergency Planning and Preparedness for Production and Utilization Facilities.

Furthermore, this document satisfies the requirements of NUREG 0654/FEMA REP. 1, Rev. 1, Criteria for Preparation and Evaluation of Radiological Emergency Response Plans and Preparedness in Support of Nuclear Power Plants.

This Emergency Plan is not the primary working document to be used during an emergency. The purpose of the Emergency Plan is to describe the program established at DBNPS to satisfy regulatory requirements and to safeguard the public and plant personnel in the event of an emergency.

2.1 Site Description The DBNPS is located on the southwestern shore of Lake Erie in Ottawa County, Ohio, approximately six (6) miles northeast of Oak Harbor, Ohio.

DBNPS employs a pressurized light water reactor steam supply system furnished by the Babcock & Wilcox Co. (now Framatome) to generate approximately 930 MWe. The reactor design core power is 2817 MWt.

The Station encompasses 954 acres, of which more than 700 acres is marsh land. A portion of the marsh land is leased to the U.S. Government as a natural wildlife refuge. The land area surrounding the site is generally agricultural, with no major industry in the vicinity of the site.

The topography in the vicinity of DBNPS is flat, with marsh areas bordering the lake and the upland area rising to only 10-15 feet above the lake low water datum level. The site itself varies in elevation from marsh bottom, below Lake Level, to approximately six feet above the lake low water datum level.

The site has been built up from 6 to 14 feet above the existing grade elevation to an elevation of 584 feet International Great Lakes Datum (IGLD). This provides flood protection from the maximum credible water level conditions of Lake Erie. The three sides of the station with exposure to the lake are provided with a dike to an elevation of 591 feet IGLD to protect the facility from wave effects during maximum credible water level conditions.

2-2 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX The Station structures are located approximately in the center of the site, 3000 feet from the shoreline. This provides a minimum exclusion distance of 2400 feet from any point of the site boundary.

Ohio Route 2 approaches the site from the city of Port Clinton, Ohio, to the southeast, and forms the west boundary of the site. At the north boundary of the site, Ohio Route 2 turns west and proceeds towards Oregon and Toledo, Ohio. Four (4) all-weather roads provide access to the site from Ohio Route 2. Figure 2-1 shows the general site location.

Site meteorological data for 2007 indicates that the prevailing winds at 10 meters above ground level are from the south/southwest. The average wind velocity at this level is 9.42 miles per hour (4.21 meters per second). Figure 2-2 shows the average wind distribution.

The primary source of potable water in the area is Lake Erie. The nearest offsite public potable water intake serves Camp Perry, the Erie Industrial Park, and surrounding residences; and is located approximately 2.8 miles from the site. Another potable water intake, which serves residents of Carroll Township, including Davis-Besse, is located approximately four miles west-northwest of the site. The Ottawa County Regional Water Systems potable water intake is eight miles east of the site. This system serves Port Clinton, Oak Harbor and the eastern end of Ottawa County. The Toledo and Oregon intakes are 13 miles west of the site. Most of the residents in the vicinity of the site not serviced by the municipal water suppliers, either have their water trucked in, or utilize well water which is periodically tested for potability by local authorities. DBNPS personnel periodically test local water sources for radioactivity.

2.2 Population Distribution NOTE: The following information regarding population distribution is for historical purposes only. For current population estimates refer to Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Development of Evacuation Time Estimates, Final Report Revision 2, which has been prepared in accordance with NUREG 0654/FEMA Rev.-1, Appendix 4.

The near-site population is distributed from the southeast to the west northwest. The total permanent population in the 10-mile area surrounding DBNPS, based on 2010 Census information is 20,403 people. Approximately 89% of these people live 5 to 10 miles from the site. The population varies seasonally due to tourism in the area and the summer home residents. Figures indicating the permanent and seasonal population distribution projections in the 0 to 2 mile, 2 to 10 mile, and 10 to 50 mile radii are included in Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Development of Evacuation Time Estimates, Final Report Revision 2, which has been prepared in accordance with NUREG 0654/FEMA Rev.-1, Appendix 4.

The EPZ permanent resident population is reviewed annually. If at any time during the decennial period the EPZ permanent resident population increases such that it causes the longest ETE value for the 2-mile zone or 5- mile zone, including all affected Emergency Response Planning Areas, or for the entire 10-mile EPZ to increase by 25 percent or 30 minutes, whichever is less, from the currently NRC approved or updated ETE, Fleet updates the ETE analysis to reflect the impact of that population increase. The updated ETE analysis is submitted to the NRC under 10 CFR 50.4 no later than 365 days after Fleet determines the criteria for updating the ETE have been met and at least 180 days before

2-3 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX using it to form protective action recommendations and providing it to state and local governmental authorities for use in developing offsite protective action strategies.

The nearest population center of 25,000 or more is Toledo, Ohio, 20 miles west-northwest of the site. Other population centers within a 50-mile radius in excess of 25,000 include Bowling Green (33 miles), Findlay (45 miles), Lorain (46 miles), and Sandusky (20 miles) in Ohio; Allen Park (40 miles),

Dearborn (40 miles),

Detroit (40 miles), Inkster (40 miles),

Lincoln Park (40 miles), Monroe (26 miles), Southgate (40 miles), Westland (40 miles),

and Wyandotte (41 miles), in Michigan; and Windsor (50 miles) in Ontario, Canada.

2.3 Emergency Planning Zones In defining the Emergency Planning Zones (EPZs) for the DBNPS, factors such as organizational capabilities, method of implementing the emergency plan, and the availability of onsite and offsite emergency facilities and equipment have been taken into consideration.

Two primary zones have been identified for development of emergency planning and implementation of the Plan. One zone has a 10-mile radius. This EPZ is referred to as the Plume Exposure Planning Zone. Within this zone, evacuation or sheltering may be recommended for the general public. The principal concern in the 10-mile EPZ is direct exposure from a passing plume and/or inhalation of radionuclides from the plume. This 10-mile EPZ is comprised of part of Ottawa County and part of Lucas County.

The second zone, the Ingestion Exposure Planning Zone, extends to a 50-mile radius. The principal concern in the 50-mile EPZ, or Ingestion Pathway EPZ, is long-term exposure from ingested material. Within the Ingestion Pathway EPZ, close monitoring of water, crops, dairy cows and farm animals may be necessary. It may also be necessary to segregate and/or remove contaminated items from the food chain (e.g., milk, fresh vegetables, etc.). This 50-mile EPZ is comprised of all of Ottawa, Lucas, Wood, Sandusky, Erie, Seneca, Huron, Lorain, Fulton, Henry, Crawford, Hancock, and Wyandot Counties in Ohio; and all of Monroe, Lenawee, Washtenaw and Wayne Counties in Michigan. Essex County and part of Kent County within the province of Ontario, Canada are also contained within this 50-mile Emergency Planning Zone.

Figures 2-3 and 2-4 show the 10-mile and 50-mile EPZs.

2.4 Regulatory Requirements 2.4.1 The Code of Federal Regulations contains requirements for emergency planning in the following sections:

3-1 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX 3.0

SUMMARY

OF THE EMERGENCY PLAN The DBNPS Emergency Plan has been established in accordance with the requirements of 10 CFR 50.47 and Appendix E to 10 CFR 50, supplemented by the guidance issued by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission in NUREG-0654/ FEMA-REP-1 and other documents.

The Emergency Plan will be put into effect whenever a radiological emergency or other potentially hazardous situation is identified. The details of the Emergency Plan Procedures are not included herein, but a description of the scope of the procedures demonstrates that appropriate actions can be taken by DBNPS and other support agencies to protect station personnel and the general public during emergencies.

The Emergency Plan establishes the concepts, evaluation and assessment criteria, and protective actions that are necessary in order to mitigate the consequences of radiological emergencies. The plan provides for the necessary prearrangements, directions, and organization needed to safeguard station personnel, and the property and safety of the general public.

3.1 Emergency Plan Steps In general, the Emergency Plan encompasses the following basic steps:

a) Recognition of the emergency b) Classification of the emergency c) Required notifications and activation of the responding organization(s) d) Ongoing assessment of the situation e) Periodic dissemination of updated information f) Determination and initiation of protective actions g) Determination and initiation of mitigative actions h) Aid to affected persons i) Reentry and Recovery During response to an emergency, several of the steps may be performed concurrently.

3.2 Emergency Organizations This document establishes an organization capable of responding to the complete range of incidents covered herein.

Provisions are made for rapid mobilization of the response organization and for expanding the response organization if the situation dictates.

An individual with the authority and responsibility to initiate any emergency actions under the provisions of this Emergency Plan, including the release of information to the public/media, is onsite at all times. The Shift Manager assumes this authority by becoming the Emergency CoordinatorDirector upon initial classification of an emergency. If the Shift Manager cannot assume these duties, authority is delegated to the Unit Supervisor or Shift Engineer (Shift Technical Advisor) in that order. The Emergency Plant Manager or Emergency Assistant Plant Manager may assume the Emergency Director position upon arrival in the Control Room. The Emergency Plant Manager may also assume the Emergency Director duties from the Technical Support Center. The designated Emergency

3-2 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX Director, upon arrival in the Emergency Operations Facility (EOF) or Technical Support Center (TSC), will assume this authority.

The operating shift crew is responsible for implementing emergency procedures in accordance with assigned response functions. Emergency response functions are also assigned to off-shift plant staff personnel who can be rapidly alerted and mobilized, to augment or relieve the operating shift personnel of emergency duties.

If required, additional support is provided by the Fleet Emergency Response Organization.

Fleet emergency response management and their staff may provide technical, administrative, and logistical support to the onsite Emergency Organization. They may authorize emergency expenditures, coordinate the efforts of offsite support organizations, and maintain the flow of information to the public.

In addition, this plan includes the use of offsite agencies and organizations that have signed letters of agreement with the DBNPS. Their designated response functions include implementation of offsite protective actions, transportation and treatment of personnel, control of access to the station, fire fighting support, radiological sampling and assessment, technical consultation, and testing. These offsite agencies and organizations include the following:

3.2.1 State of Ohio The Ohio Emergency Management Agency (OEMA), Department of Public Safety, State of Ohio, is the lead planning agency for developing state nuclear incident plans for licensed nuclear facilities contiguous to and within the State.

The specific tasks and responsibilities assigned to several departments and agencies of the State of Ohio are specified in the Ohio Radiological Emergency Preparedness Plan and the Ohio Emergency Operations Plan.

The OEMA is notified at the declaration of an emergency via dedicated telephone from the Control Room or EOF. Once notified, the OEMA will implement its Nuclear Incident Accident Call List as specified in the State of Ohio plan.

3.2.2 Ottawa County, Ohio The lead agency for county-wide emergency planning is the Ottawa County Emergency Management Agency. Responsibilities for various county agencies and organizations are described in Section II, The Ottawa County Radiological Emergency Response Plan.

4-1 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX 4.0 EMERGENCY CONDITIONS 4.1 Emergency Classification Levels (ECLs)

The Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Emergency Plan emergencies are divided into four Emergency Classification Levels (ECLs): GENERAL EMERGENCY, SITE AREA EMERGENCY, ALERT, and UNUSUAL EVENT.

The ECLs are arranged from most severe to least severe according to relative threat to the health and safety of the public and emergency workers. An ECL is determined to be met by identifying abnormal conditions and then comparing them to INITIATING CONDITIONS (ICs) through EMERGENCY ACTION LEVELS (EAL) and Fission Product Barrier (FPB) threshold values as discussed below. When multiple EALs are met, event declaration is based in the highest ECL reached. Emergency Plan, Section 6.0, Emergency Measures, summarizes the emergency measures to be taken by both the Onsite and corporate emergency response organizations.

4.1.1 GENERAL EMERGENCY Events are in progress or have occurred which involve actual or IMMINENT substantial core degradation or melting with potential for loss of containment integrity or HOSTILE ACTION that results in an actual loss of physical control of the facility.

Releases can be reasonably expected to exceed EPA Protective Action Guideline exposure levels offsite for more than the immediate site area.

4.1.2 SITE AREA EMERGENCY Events are in progress or have occurred which involve an actual or likely major failures of plant functions needed for protection of the public or HOSTILE ACTION that results in intentional damage or malicious acts: 1) toward site personnel or equipment that could lead to the likely failure of or, 2) that prevent effective access to equipment needed for the protection of the public. Any releases are not expected to result in exposure levels which exceed EPA Protective Action Guideline exposure levels beyond the site boundary.

4.1.3 ALERT Events are in progress or have occurred which involve an actual or potential substantial degradation of the level of safety of the plant or a security event that involves probable life threatening risk to site personnel or damage to site equipment because of HOSTILE ACTION. Any releases are expected to be limited to small fractions of the EPA Protective Action Guideline exposure levels.

4.1.4 UNUSUAL EVENT Events are in progress or have occurred which indicate a potential degradation of the level of safety of the plant or indicate a security threat to facility protection has been initiated. No releases of radioactive material requiring offsite response or monitoring are expected unless further degradation of safety systems occurs.

4-2 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX 4.1.5 RECOVERY Recovery may be entered prior to returning to a normal organization and operation.

Recovery provides dedicated resources and organizational structure in support of restoration and communication activities following the termination of the emergency event. Recovery phase is discussed in Section 9.0 of the Emergency Plan.

4.2 EMERGENCY CLASSIFICATION The Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station maintains the capability to assess, classify, and declare an emergency condition within 15 minutes of the availability of indications that an EAL has been exceeded. The 15-minute criterion commences when plant instrumentation, plant alarms, computer displays, or incoming verbal reports that correspond to an EAL first become available to any plant operator.

4.3 INITIATING CONDITION (ICs)

The INITIATING CONDITION (IC), EMERGENCY ACTION LEVELS (EALs) and the Fission Product Barrier (FPB) matrix with their related basis information are located in Appendix E of the Emergency Plan. The ICs provide a general description of emergency conditions that are organized beneath the broader categories of the ECLs. The IC can be a continuous, measurable function that is outside Technical Specifications, or encompass events such as FIRES or system/equipment failures.

Each IC is given a unique identification code consisting of four characters. The first character (letter) identifies the recognition category, the second character (letter) identifies the ECL, the third character (number) identifies the subcategory, and the fourth character (number) identifies the numerical sequence within the subcategory.

4.3.1 Recognition Category Codes F designates Fission Product Barrier Degradation R designates Abnormal Rad Levels / Rad Effluent H designates Hazards and Other Conditions Affecting Plant Safety S designates System Malfunctions C designates Cold Shutdown / Refueling System Malfunction E designates Dry Fuel Storage Facility (DFSF) 4.3.2 Emergency Classification Level (ECL) Codes G designates GENERAL EMERGENCY S designates SITE AREA EMERGENCY A designates ALERT U designates UNUSUAL EVENT The specific details on Initiating Conditions and their use are found in RA-EP-01500, Emergency Classification. The basis for the Emergency Action Levels is contained in

4-3 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX Appendix E, DBRM-EMER-1500 A, Davis-Besse Emergency Action Levels Basis Document.

4.4 EMERGENCY ACTION LEVELS (EALs) and Fission Product Barriers (FPBs)

EMERGENCY ACTION LEVELS (EALs) are predetermined, site specific, observable conditions within the ICs that place the state of the plant in a given ECL (Reference Emergency Plan, Appendix E).

EALs are individually identified by the IC identification code followed by the EAL number, such as RG1.1 for major effluent release or HU3.1 for tornado.

Fission Product Barriers (FPBs) are given unique character identification codes and are further subdivided into Loss and Potential loss categories. Meeting or exceeding one or more FPB can result in various ECLs. The first two letters simply identify the particular barrier by abbreviation. The letter in the FPB identification code associates it with a particular FPB recognition category. The FPB identification codes are developed as follows:

4.4.1 Barrier Abbreviation Codes FC designates FUEL CLAD RC designates REACTOR COOLANT CT designates CONTAINMENT 4.4.2 Fission Product Barriers (FPBs) Recognition Categories Codes A designates RCS or SG Tube Leakage B designates Inadequate Heat Removal C designates CT Radiation / RCS Activity D designates CT Integrity or Bypass E designates ED Judgment Fission Product Barrier Thresholds are listed within each Fission Product Barrier Category and are identified by a sequential number.

FPBs are treated the same as EALs in that they exist only as long as the condition(s) for loss or potential loss exist, as opposed to ECLs which once declared, remain in place until termination or recovery.

For EALs that contain time imbedded criterion, the Emergency CoordinatorDirector should not wait until the applicable time period has elapsed but should declare the event as soon as it is determined that the condition will likely exceed the applicable time.

4-4 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX 4.4.3 Operating Mode Applicability For purposes of event classification, the following operating mode applicability definitions establish the conditions when the EAL or FPB thresholds represent a threat:

TABLE 4-1 Operating Mode Applicability Reactivity  % Rated Average Coolant Mode Condition, Keff Thermal Power* Temperature

1) Power Operation 0.99 > 5% N/A
2) Startup 0.99 5% N/A
3) Hot Standby < 0.99 N/A 280° F
4) Hot Shutdown < 0.99 N/A 280° F > Tavg > 200° F
5) Cold Shutdown < 0.99 N/A 200° F
6) Refueling One or more vessel head closure bolts less than fully tensioned.

D) Defueled All reactor fuel removed from reactor pressure vessel (full core off load during refueling or extended outage).

  • Excluding decay heat.

The Operating Mode Applicability table is based on the Technical Specifications definition of Operational Mode. ICs are based on the operating mode that exists at the time the event occurred, prior to any protective system or operator action initiated in response.

For events that occur in Cold Shutdown or Refueling, escalation is via EALs that have Cold Shutdown or Refueling for mode applicability, even if Hot Shutdown (or a higher mode) is entered during any subsequent heat-up. In particular, the FPB threshold values are applicable only to events that initiate in Hot Shutdown or higher.

If there is a change in operating mode following an event declaration, any subsequent events involving EALs outside of the current declaration escalation path will be evaluated on the mode of the plant at the time the subsequent events occur.

4.4.4 Treatment of Multiple Events and Classification Level Upgrading When multiple simultaneous events occur, the emergency classification level is based on the highest EAL reached. For example, two ALERTS remain in the ALERT category; or, an ALERT and a SITE AREA EMERGENCY is a SITE AREA EMERGENCY.

Although the majority of the EALs provide very specific thresholds, the Emergency

4-5 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX CoordinatorDirector must remain alert to events or conditions that lead to the conclusion that exceeding the EAL is IMMINENT. If, in the judgment of the Emergency CoordinatorDirector, an IMMINENT situation is at hand, the classification should be made as if the threshold has been exceeded. While this is particularly prudent at the higher emergency classification levels (as the early classification may provide for more effective implementation of protective measures), it is nonetheless applicable to all emergency classification levels. Figure 6-1 illustrates the scheme for upgrading emergency classification based on current conditions.

4.4.5 Emergency Classification Level Downgrading Another important aspect of usable EAL guidance is the consideration of what to do when the risk posed by an emergency is clearly decreasing. A combination approach involving recovery from a GENERAL EMERGENCY and some SITE AREA EMERGENCIES and termination from UNUSUAL EVENTS, ALERTS, and certain SITE AREA EMERGENCIES causing no long term plant damage appears to be the best choice. Downgrading to lower emergency classification levels adds notifications but may have merit under certain circumstances. Figure 6-1 illustrates the options for downgrading or termination of events based on current plant conditions. Recovery phase is discussed in Section 9.2.

4.4.6 Classifying Transient Events For some events, the condition may be corrected before a declaration has been made.

The key consideration in this situation is to determine whether or not further plant damage occurred while the mitigative actions were being taken. In some situations, this can be readily determined, in other situations, further analyses (e.g., coolant radiochemistry sampling) may be necessary. Classify the event as indicated and terminate the emergency once assessment shows that there were no consequences from the event and other termination criteria are met.

Existing guidance for classifying transient events addresses the period of time of event recognition and classification (15 minutes). However, in cases when EAL declaration criteria may be met momentarily during the normal expected response of the plant, declaration requirements should not be considered to be met when the conditions are a part of the designed plant response, or result from appropriate operator actions.

There may be cases in which a plant condition that exceeded an EAL was not recognized at the time of occurrence but is identified well after the condition has occurred (e.g., as a result of routine log or record review), and the condition no longer exists. In these cases, an emergency should not be declared.

Reporting requirements of 10 CFR 50.72 are applicable and the guidance of NUREG-1022, Event Reporting Guidelines, 10 CFR 50.72 and 50.73, should be applied.

5-1 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX 5.0 ORGANIZATIONAL CONTROL OF EMERGENCIES In planning for emergencies the availability of the normally present operating staff, augmented by support from other utility personnel and offsite support agencies, is considered. The initial phase of an emergency at DBNPS will involve a relatively small number of individuals. Augmented resourcesThese individuals will be capable of: (1) determining that an emergency exists, (2) providing initial classification and assessment, (3) promptly notifying other groups and individuals in the emergency organization, and (4) performing actions immediately necessary to protect site personnel and the public. The follow-on phases of an emergency situation may require an increasing augmentation of the emergency organization. In the case of an ALERT or higher SITE AREA EMERGENCY or a GENERAL EMERGENCY, this will result in the mobilization of the Emergency Response Organization (ERO)all personnel resources of the Company, under the direction of a Senior Company Officer.

This section of the Emergency Plan addresses the assignment of personnel and the establishment of responsibilities and authority for the:

5.1 DBNPS Organization 5.2 DBNPS Emergency Management 5.3 Onshift Emergency Response Organization 5.4 Onsite Emergency Response Organization 5.5 Near Site Emergency Response Organization 5.6 Joint Information Center (JIC) 5.7 Corporate Assistance Center (CAC) 5.78 Supporting Emergency Organizations 5.1 DBNPS Organization Daily operating and engineering activities at DBNPS are under the control of the Vice President - Nuclear.

DBNPS has engineering service contracts with the Nuclear Steam Supply System (NSSS) supplier and the Architect-Engineer. Organizational structure and communication arrangements exist to assure that these services are available and can be obtained in a timely manner.

5.1.1 Plant Management and Administrative Organization The General Plant Manager directs and supervises all operating, administrative, technical and maintenance activities in connection with the continuous, efficient and safe operation of the DBNPS.

To support the General Plant Manager, an administrative organization has been established. Responsibilities have been assigned for the various aspects of station operation.

5-2 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX 5.1.2 Onshift Operations Group The Normal Onshift Operations Group at the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station maintains the capability at all times to perform the emergency detection, classification, and notification functions required in the early phases of an incident.

These capabilities are augmented, as required, by the Onsite Emergency Response Organization and the Fleet Emergency Response Organization.

The Onshift Operations Group conforms with ANSI N18.1 and includes both management and operating personnel. Figure 5-1, Onshift Emergency Organization, shows the functional levels. The Onshift Maintenance Support Organization maintains a 24-hour shift rotation. The shift includes persons from the Mechanical, Electrical, and Instrument and Control Maintenance Sections.

These personnel form the initial nucleus staff of the OSC. Other cContinuous duty, 24 hour2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />s-per-day organizations include Plant Operations, Chemistry, Radiation Protection and Security. Additional Maintenance personnel and the various Engineering organizations are onsite during normal work hours, Monday through Friday, excluding holidays.

5.1.3 Normal Plant Shift Staffing The plants operating staff meets or exceeds the requirements of Technical Specification 5.2.2 and Technical Requirements Manual 10.2.1. Table 5-1 MANPOWER, LOCATION, AND RESPONSE CONSIDERATIONS FOR EMERGENCIES, A. ONSHIFT MINIMUM STAFFING REQUIREMENTS describes the minimum on shift staffing utilized to support the emergency plan.

In addition, the plant is continuously manned with a minimum shift complement consisting of the following:

1 Chemistry Tester 1 Radiation Protection Technician 5 Fire Brigade Members (may have other assignments)

  • Nuclear Security Force
  • safeguards information An established duty roster system provides access to plant management 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> a day.

Table 5-1 specifies minimum shift requirements as prescribed by NUREG-0654, Revised Table B-1.

The Shift Manager directs the onshift personnel operating the station and verifies that their work is performed according to approved procedures.

6-1 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX 6.0 EMERGENCY MEASURES This section identifies the specific measures that are taken for each class of emergency defined in Section 4.0, "Emergency Conditions", of this Plan. The logic presented in this section is the basis for detailed Emergency Plan Procedures which define the emergency actions to be taken for each emergency category. Emergency measures begin with the following:

a. The recognition and declaration of an emergency.
b. Notification of the applicable agencies for each emergency classification.
c. Mobilization of the appropriate portions of the emergency response organization.

Emergency measures can be classified as falling into one of the following categories:

a. Assessment Actions
b. Mitigative Actions
c. Protective Actions Figure 6-1 is a summary of typical emergency measures, which may be appropriate for each classification of emergency. Figure 6-2 indicates the groups and organizations that will be notified at each emergency classification.

6.1 Activation of the Emergency Response Organizations If conditions at Davis-Besse meet or exceed a predetermined value or condition specified as an EAL in the emergency classification procedure, the provisions of this plan, and those of the specific procedures shall be implemented.

Specific emergency action levels for each emergency category are defined in Section 4.0. The Shift Manager, acting as Emergency CoordinatorDirector, will implement this plan by initially classifying the emergency and ensuring that required notifications are made.

When an emergency classification level is declared or upgraded, initial notifications are promptly made to offsite response organizations. Notification and mobilization of federal, state and local agency response personnel is performed in accordance with their applicable emergency plan and procedures.

State and Local Response Agencies State and local agencies receive within fifteen (15) minutes an initial notification message of an event declaration (initial or an escalation). General Emergency classifications also include Protective Action Recommendations (PARs) within that same 15 minutes. Any subsequent changes to PARs continue to be provided to the agencies within 15 minutes.

Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC)

The NRC is notified immediately after notification of the appropriate state and local agencies and not later than one (1) hour after the time of initial event declaration, escalation to a higher classification level, emergency termination or entry into recovery.

The NRC is notified using the dedicated Emergency Notification System (ENS) by an individual knowledgeable of the event. If the ENS is inoperative, the required notifications are made via

6-2 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX commercial telephone service. An open, continuous communication line is maintained with the NRC Operations Center upon request. An NRC Event Notification Worksheet may be utilized to assist in communicating event and plant information to the NRC.

For hostile action events, the NRC is notified immediately following or concurrent with state and local notifications.

Other event notifications related to emergency response capabilities not associated with an emergency classification level are performed in accordance with 10 CFR 50.72.

Support Organizations

- Medical, rescue, and firefighting support services are notified for assistance as the situation dictates.

- The Institute of Nuclear Power Operations (INPO) is notified at an Alert or higher classification with requests for assistance as necessary.

- The American Nuclear Insurers (ANI) are notified at an Alert or higher classification with requests for assistance as necessary.

- Vendor and contractor support services are notified for assistance as the situation dictates.

Following the notifications made to the counties, state, and NRC; notifications will be made to the General Plant Manager, the Manager of Operations, and the Emergency Director, or their designated alternates. The Emergency Assistant Plant Manager, working closely with the Shift Manager, will continually assess the emergency to verify that the most appropriate classification is made.

Depending on the level of the emergency and its severity, portions or all of the onsite and offsite EROs and the CAC will be mobilized as detailed below:

6.1.1 Shift Manager/Control Room Operations

a. Should emergency conditions arise, it is expected that the Control Room Operator(s) and/or the Shift Manager will be made aware of the situation by alarms, instrument readings, reports, etc. The Control Room Operator(s) will ensure that the Shift Manager is immediately informed of the situation. The Shift Manager will direct the Control Room staff to inform the Emergency Director and Station Management immediately.
b. The Shift Manager, when informed of an emergency situation, is responsible for assessing the emergency (e.g., plant systems and reactor core status, radiological conditions, etc.) in the following manner:
1. Determine the immediate actions to be taken (e.g., use of Abnormal Procedures and the Emergency Operating Procedure) to ensure the safe and proper operation of the plant. The Shift Engineer, acting as Shift Technical Advisor (STA), will advise and assist the Shift Manager on matters pertaining to the safety and proper operation of the plant, with regards to nuclear safety.
2. If the situation requires implementation of the DBNPS Emergency Plan, the Emergency CoordinatorDirector will:

6-3 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX a) Classify the emergency. Classification of emergencies is a non-delegable responsibility of the Emergency CoordinatorDirector.

b) Ensure that the appropriate alarm (Fire, Access Evacuation, or Initiate Emergency Procedures) is sounded.

c) Announce the location, type and classification of the emergency on the station public address system (twice).

d) Implement the applicable Emergency Plan Procedure.

e) Notify the following personnel and organizations of the emergency conditions:

1) Nuclear Security Supervision.
2) Station Management.
3) Ottawa County Sheriff/EMA (within 15 minutes).

5) Ohio State Highway Patrol/EMA (within 15 minutes).
6) Key Emergency Response Personnel.
7) NRC, Emergency Operations Center, Bethesda, Maryland (within one hour).

f) Provide periodic follow-up notifications.

g) Recommend protective actions for public protection, as needed.

Recommending public protective actions is a non-delegable responsibility of the Emergency CoordinatorDirector.

3. Due to the numerous responsibilities assigned to the Shift Manager at the onset of an emergency, he will perform the following actions in their listed priority.

a) Ensure the safe operation of the plant.

b) Ensure that immediate notification requirements are met.

c) Dispatch, in the event of radiological emergencies, Radiation Protection (RP) personnel to appropriate locations within the protected area.

d) Perform additional emergency actions as time and conditions permit.

6-4 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX 6.1.2 Emergency CoordinatorDirector The designated Emergency CoordinatorDirector, upon being informed that an emergency exists and has been declared by the Emergency CoordinatorDirector on-shift will:

a. Review information, data, and methods used by the on-shift Emergency CoordinatorDirector (Shift Manager) in making the emergency classification. The Emergency CoordinatorDirector may NOT delegate the responsibility of classifying emergencies.
b. Determine, to what extent the Emergency Response Organization (ERO) will be activated, using the following guidelines:
1. For an UNUSUAL EVENT, key individuals in the ERO will be alerted or mobilized at the discretion of the Emergency CoordinatorDirector.
2. For an ALERT or higher classification, all of the ERO will be activated. Key individuals in the CAC will be alerted.
3. For a SITE AREA EMERGENCY or GENERAL EMERGENCY, the entire ERO, and the CAC will be activated.
c. Ensure that the Emergency Response Organizations have been activated as indicated above. (If not already performed by Control Room staff.)
d. Report to the TSC/EOF and relieve the Emergency Director.

de. The Emergency Director in the EOF is responsible for Eensuringe that the Periodic Update Form, as provided in the Emergency Plan Procedures, is completed and supplied to the state and county Emergency Management Agencies. Protective action recommendations, for the Plume Exposure EPZ, is a non-delegable responsibility of the Emergency Director.

ef. The Emergency Director in the EOF Eensures that dose rate calculations, in accordance with the Emergency Plan Procedures, are performed periodically. A total population dose estimation may also be performed.

6.1.3 Ottawa and Lucas County Sheriffs' Offices Dispatchers at the Sheriffs' Office for both counties, will notify key county officials and organizations, according to established procedures.

6.1.4 Ottawa County and Lucas County Emergency Management Agency Directors The County EMA Directors will ensure that their county EROs are activated when necessary, and will notify municipalities near DBNPS.

6.1.5 Ohio Emergency Management Agency (OEMA)

The OEMA will ensure that applicable state agencies and organizations are notified and will ensure the State Emergency Operations Center is activated when necessary. Additional state agencies are contacted depending on the severity of the emergency classifications. These notifications are made in accordance with the State of Ohio emergency plan.

6-5 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX The OEMA will have Radiological Monitoring Teams and an accident assessment team respond to an emergency at DBNPS. The accident assessment team will set up an operations center at the local governmental Emergency Operations Center. Using estimates from utility and offsite monitoring teams; and local governmental official's input, the accident assessment team will perform independent accident assessment activities to determine:

a. Protective measures including evacuation.
b. Actions to control exposure to radioactivity.
c. What further sampling of milk, food chain, water and air will be required.

If deemed appropriate, the accident assessment team will request assistance from responding federal agencies in accordance with the State of Ohio emergency plan.

6.1.6 Federal Agencies (Other than NRC)

The NRC, as the cognizant federal agency, will request assistance from other federal agencies when and if deemed appropriate.

Station management may also request assistance and/or information from federal agencies (other than the Department of Energy Radiological Assistance Program) as appropriate to the circumstances.

State organizations and agencies may consult with their federal counterparts if appropriate.

If required, the Department of Energy Radiological Assistance Program teams can be expected to begin arriving at the site in 4 to 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> following notification. The first teams to arrive will have some survey instruments and air samplers. A mobile environmental monitoring lab can be expected to arrive at the site in 6 to 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br />. Appendix B contains a reference to the Radiological Assistance Program with the DOE to provide radiological assistance.

6.1.7 Ohio Department of Health The Ohio Department of Health, Radiological Health Unit, maintains a communications link with the U.S. NRC, Region III Office, from which assistance and support may be requested.

6-6 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX 6.2 Assessment Actions Effective coordination and direction of all elements of the emergency organization requires continuing accident assessment throughout an emergency situation. Each emergency class invokes similar assessment methods; however each classification imposes a different magnitude of assessment effort.

In the following sections, assessment actions taken for each emergency classification are outlined.

6.2.1 Assessment Actions for an UNUSUAL EVENT The declaration of an UNUSUAL EVENT arises when a specific Emergency Action Level for this classification has been met.

Recognition of the need to declare the event will result from alarms, instrument readings, severe weather warnings, a security threat to facility protection, operating experience, or any combination thereof.

Continuing assessment actions to be performed for this category of emergency will be in accordance with the Emergency Plan Procedures and consist of the normal monitoring of Control Room and plant instrumentation and status, until the situation is resolved. Tornado and severe weather assessment actions consist of keeping in contact with the system dispatcher and the appropriate public authorities. If a fire prompted the declaration of an UNUSUAL EVENT, the Fire Brigade Captain will go to the fire location, make continuing assessments, and report to the Shift Manager on whether offsite fire fighting support is required. If a security event is in progress, then the emergency organization will immediately implement procedures for security events or threats.

6.2.2 Assessment Actions for an ALERT Once an incident has been classified as an ALERT, assessment actions will be performed in accordance with the Emergency Plan Procedure for an ALERT. These actions include:

a. Increased surveillance of in-plant instrumentation.
b. If possible, the dispatching of shift personnel to the identified problem area to confirm and visually assess the problem.
c. Activation of the TSC, OSC and EOF as well as staffing of the JIC d The dispatching of Field Monitoring Teams (FMTs)personnel to monitor for possible releases, and to confirm the correct classification.

ed. If a radiological incident is occurring, surveillance of the in-plant instrumentation necessary to obtain meteorological and radiological data required for calculating or estimating projected doses. Dose assessment activity will continue until termination of the emergency, so that assessment updates may be provided to all concerned offsite agencies and to the Emergency CoordinatorDirector. Emergency Plan Procedures are provided to allow a rapid, consistent projection of dose.

fe. If a security event is in progress, then the emergency organization will immediately implement specific procedures for security events or threats.

6-7 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX 6.2.3 Assessment Actions for a SITE AREA EMERGENCY Assessment actions for the SITE AREA EMERGENCY category are similar to the actions for an ALERT. However, due to the increased potential for a possible release, assessment activity of greater scope will occur. The personnel necessary for this assessment effort will be provided by mobilization of the onsite and offsite EROs.

These actions include:

a. An increased amount of plant instrumentation will be monitored. (In particular, indications of core status, e.g., incore thermocouple readings, etc.)
b. Radiation monitoring efforts will be greatly increased. Radiation Monitoring Teams will be available for immediate dispatch. Beta-gamma field measurements may be performed; air sampling, environmental thermoluminescent dosimeter (TLD) change out, and collection of environmental media for assessment of material transport and deposition will be performed as necessary.
c. Dose assessment activities will be performed more frequently, with an increased emphasis on dose projection for use as a factor in determining necessary protective actions. Radiological and meteorological instrumentation readings will be used to project the dose rate at predetermined distances from the station, and to the potential integrated dose.

In reporting the dose projections to the Emergency Director or to offsite agencies, the dose rate, dose, and basis for the time used for the dose estimate will always be provided. Confirmation of dose rates by RFMTs will be reflected in reports and/or revised dose estimate information provided to offsite agencies.

All dose projections will be performed in accordance with the Emergency Plan Procedures which incorporate recommendations found in EPA-400-R-92-001 Manual of Protective Action Guides and Protective Actions for Nuclear Incidents. Reports to offsite authorities will include the relationship of dose to these guidelines. Emergency Plan Procedures are provided for recording pertinent information.

d. If a security event is in progress, then the emergency organization will immediately implement specific procedures for security events or threats.

6.2.4 Assessment Actions for a GENERAL EMERGENCY Assessment actions for the GENERAL EMERGENCY category are the same as for the SITE AREA EMERGENCY, with some possible increase in the scope of dose assessment/projection activities. Additionally, since projected doses are likely to be much closer to EPA Protective Action Guidelines (PAGs), greater emphasis will be placed on the assessment of release duration. Judgments and assumptions used for dose assessment will be documented.

6-8 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX 6.3 Mitigative Actions Detailed operating procedures are available for use during emergencies, as well as during normal operations. Specific Emergency Operating Procedures and Abnormal Procedures are provided to assist the operators in placing the plant in a safe condition, and taking necessary supplemental mitigative actions. In addition, operations personnel are trained in the operation of the plant systems and their associated procedures, and are therefore capable of taking appropriate mitigative actions based on their training, knowledge, and experience.

Selected DBNPS Staff personnel, including Operations, Radiation Protection, Chemistry, and Maintenance personnel are trained and assigned to emergency teams. These teams are capable of responding to situations as set forth in the Emergency Plan Procedures, to assess conditions and take appropriate mitigative actions. Maintenance personnel will provide the necessary expertise to effect damage control and repair activities.

Mitigative actions will normally be planned events that are taken to gain control of, or terminate the emergency situation. Planned radioactive releases, or mitigative actions that may result in a radioactive release will be evaluated by the Emergency CoordinatorDirector and staff as far in advance of the event as is possible. Such events and data pertaining to the release, will be reported to the appropriate offsite organizations and/or agencies. DBNPS recommendations to authorities regarding the Plume Exposure EPZ are the non-delegable responsibility of the Emergency CoordinatorDirector.

6.4 Protective Actions Protective actions are emergency measures taken during or after an emergency situation to minimize or eliminate the hazard to the health and safety of the general public and/or station personnel. Such actions taken onsite are the responsibility of Company management, while those taken offsite fall under the jurisdiction of the State of Ohio and other offsite response agencies. All visitors to the Protected Area will be either escorted by an employee or receive training on actions required by them during an emergency.

6.4.1 Plant Site Protective Actions During an emergency, sheltering or evacuation of personnel may be required to prevent or minimize exposure to radiation and radioactive materials. The following sub-sections present information on policies concerning such situations. Figure 6-3 illustrates the routes to be taken from the site if evacuation becomes necessary.

a. Plant Site (within the protected area):

All personnel within the site protected area at the time of the declaration of an emergency, will be notified of the emergency by audible or visual alarms and verbal announcement over the public address system (Gai-Tronics). Personnel may be instructed to report to the assembly area. Personnel will be trained as to the location of the assembly area and the suggested route. Visitors will assemble with their escorts or be escorted offsite. At the assembly area, members of the emergency organization will conduct personnel assembly and evacuation (if required).

Accountability within the protected area is coordinated by the OSC CoordinatorManager and Security. The goal for completion of personnel accountability is 30 minutes.

6-9 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX Results are forwarded to the Emergency CoordinatorDirector. Once established, accountability within the protected area will be maintained throughout the course of the event. Specific guidance for performing accountability can be found in the Emergency Plan Procedures. Search for and rescue of missing persons will be performed in accordance with Emergency Plan Procedures.

Sheltering at onsite locations will be ordered when the projected dose would be less than or equal to that received during evacuation. For essential personnel who must remain within the protected area following an evacuation (e.g., Operations and Security personnel), particular attention will be paid to their radiation dose for ALARA purposes.

If a localized emergency exists, evacuation of the affected facility or area can be performed. Access to this area should then be restricted. The Protected Area will be evacuated if a SITE AREA EMERGENCY has been declared or if, at the discretion of the Emergency CoordinatorDirector/Shift Manager, a personnel hazard exists.

Nonessential personnel shall be evacuated from the site if a GENERAL EMERGENCY has been declared, or if, at the discretion of the Emergency CoordinatorDirector/Shift Manager, site evacuation is warranted for personnel safety reasons. Access control will be established by Security to prohibit the entry of unauthorized personnel to the protected area.

Personal vehicles will be used for site evacuation. Nonessential personnel may be evacuated to the designated offsite assembly area, which will be located at an offsite county reception center. Personnel and vehicles will be monitored for contamination at the offsite reception center, if necessary, prior to release.

b. Plant Site (Outside the Protected Area):

All personnel onsite, but outside the protected area will be notified, at the declaration of an emergency, of conditions that may affect them. Personnel outside of the range of the Gai-Tronics system will be notified via bullhorn, ERO mobile device, or site public address system. Personnel may be instructed to report to the nearest assembly area. Key personnel have been delegated responsibility for receiving emergency information and disseminating such information to personnel in these areas. If assembly becomes necessary, Assembly Area Coordinators will perform these functions and report the results to the Emergency Director.

c. Hostile-Action Based Protective Actions Hostile-Action Based, or security related, emergencies offer different challenges to the site organization. Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station has incorporated a range of protective actions for onsite personnel during a hostile action event, consistent with the possible threat (including land/water based, as well as airborne attacks). Generally, these protective actions may include considerations for:

Site evacuation via normal exits Site evacuation via alternate means Dispersal of plant operators and essential ERO members Take Cover (sheltering in place for personnel onsite)

6-10 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX Arrangements for accounting for personnel after a hostile action have been made. When the site is secure, all personnel who were in the protected area when the hostile action occurred will be accounted for as promptly as possible while not interfering with critical safe reactor shutdown activities or known medical emergencies. The details of these protective actions are described in site implementing procedures.

6.4.2 Offsite Protective Actions:

Responsibility for implementing actions to protect personnel in offsite areas rests with State and local officials, and is described in detail in the The Ohio Radiological Emergency Preparedness Plan and the Ohio Emergency Operations Plan (under a separate cover), and is implemented in conjunction with The Ottawa County Radiological Emergency Response Plan, and The Lucas County Radiological Emergency Response Plan (under separate covers).

At a General Emergency classification Davis-Besse, through the Emergency Director, shall make offsite protective action recommendations to state and local authorities, based on emergency conditions. The FENOC PAR determination process has been developed in accordance with NUREG-0654 Supplement 3 revision 1, and its PAR logic diagram. The process includes consideration of precautionary protective actions, wind persistence, rapidly progressing release scenarios, hostile-action based events, and termination of protective actions. It also includes considerations that embody Offsite Response Organizations input at the various decision points as identified in the guidance.

Offsite protective action recommendations will be made for affected predetermined subareas.

(Refer to the Ohio Radiological Emergency Preparedness Plan and the Ohio Emergency Operations Plan for description of the Davis-Besse 10-mile emergency planning zone subareas.) The preferred offsite protective action recommendation (PAR) is evacuation. A sheltering PAR will be considered when known roadway impediments impact the ability to evacuate a large portion of the Emergency Planning Zone, during a controlled short duration release, and during a Hostile-Action based event. Dose to the public from any actual or potential radiological release are evaluated prior to the determination of these sheltering recommendations.

The means to warn or advise persons involved in taking protective actions is the responsibility of the Ottawa County EMA Director, Lucas County EMA Director, and the Ottawa and Lucas County emergency organizations. These counties are responsible for the preparation and dissemination of public information material related to implementation of protective actions for the general public. The Ottawa County Sheriff's Office will authorize the broadcast of appropriate Emergency Alert System messages to the public, when necessary. The general content of these messages is contained in the Ottawa County Plan, the Lucas County Plan, and the State of Ohio Plan.

6-11 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX 6.4.3 Use of Onsite Protective Equipment and Supplies Table 6-1 summarizes typical protective action recommendations for the general public and emergency workers. Tables 6-2, 6-3, 6-4, and 6-5 provide guidelines for the expected local protection against direction and inhalation exposure afforded by structures. The following onsite locations have been designated for assembly and dispatch of emergency teams:

a. Operations Support Center
b. Radiological Testing LaboratoryAdmin Building.

The exact location, type, and quantity of emergency equipment and supplies is specified in the Emergency Plan Procedures.

6.4.4 Contamination Control Measures

a. Station Area:

Access to the owner-controlled area will be limited. Contamination control within the station shall be exercised in accordance with approved Radiation Protection procedures.

b. Offsite Areas:

It is the responsibility of the State Department of Agriculture, in conjunction with the Department of Health and the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency, to issue guidance and coordinate actions to control the use and transport of contaminated agricultural products.

6.4.5 Ingestion Pathway Control Measures The Ingestion Pathway EPZ (50-mile radius) has been established to address the additional concern for ingestion of contamination. There are two levels at which protective actions may be recommended by the State (i.e., preventive and emergency levels) for food and water contamination. Suggested action levels for ground, food, and water contamination are given in Table 6-6.

6.5 Aid to Affected Personnel 6.5.1 Emergency Personnel Exposure Under emergency conditions, it may not be possible to perform mitigative/protective actions, while maintaining exposure (i.e., radiation doses) below limits specified in 10CFR20. Saving a life, measures to circumvent substantial doses to population groups, or preservation of safety related equipment, may be sufficient cause for above normal doses.

The following are the exposure limits based on EPA-400-R-92-001 guidance for these emergency activities:

6-12 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX

a. Mitigative/protective actions:

Limit doses to the following when protecting valuable property and lower doses are not practicable:

1. 10,000 mrem Total Effective Dose Equivalent (TEDE)
2. 30,000 mrem Lens Dose Equivalent (LDE)
3. 100,000 mrem:

Total Organ Dose Equivalent (TODE)

Shallow Dose Equivalent (SDE) to the skin of the whole body or to any extremity

b. Lifesaving actions:

Limit doses to the following when protecting large populations or performing life saving activities and lower doses are not practicable:

1. 25,000 mrem TEDE
2. 75,000 mrem LDE
3. 250,000 mrem Total Organ Dose Equivalent (TODE)

Shallow Dose Equivalent (SDE) to the skin of the whole body or to any extremity The Emergency CoordinatorDirector has the authority to permit the above exposures in excess of the 10 CFR 20 occupational dose limits. This responsibility may be delegated to the Emergency Plant Manager.

Personnel involved in any of the above actions must be volunteers, and cognizant of the effects of such doses.

Emergency worker dose records shall be maintained in accordance with Davis-Besse RP Procedures.

Although doses in excess of the normal legal limits may be authorized, the Emergency CoordinatorDirector will ensure that all doses are kept ALARA.

6.5.2 Thyroid Blocking A ready supply of suitable thyroid blocking agent is maintained and available for use by emergency workers. Guidance for administration of the blocking agent will be provided by medical advisors, and is specified in emergency plan procedures.

The Emergency CoordinatorDirector or, when designated, the Emergency Plant Manager shall authorize the use of the thyroid blocking agent, i.e., potassium iodide (KI).

6-13 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX The State of Ohio has elected to distribute and stockpile potassium iodide (KI) for the general public. At a General Emergency the Ohio Department of Health in coordination with the local Health Departments may elect to recommend that the general public take potassium iodide.

6.5.3 Decontamination and First Aid Decontamination materials, including specialized equipment and supplies are available in station decontamination areas. Portable instruments for personnel monitoring and portal monitors are available at the RCA entrance. Decontamination showers and sinks, both of which drain to the radwaste system, are also located in the Decontamination Area.

Action levels for determining the need for decontamination of personnel and equipment are specified in the Davis-Besse RP Procedures.

Personnel found to be contaminated will be decontaminated by Radiation Protection personnel (or other qualified personnel, as specified in RP Procedures). It is preferred that personnel decontamination be performed by trained RP personnel.

Measures shall be taken to prevent the spread of contamination. Such measures may include isolating the affected areas, placing contaminated personnel in "clean" clothing before moving them, and decontaminating affected personnel, their clothing, and equipment prior to release.

Emergency first aid and medical treatment will be given to injured personnel who are contaminated. Station personnel trained in first aid are available onsite, on a 24-hour basis, and will assist injured personnel. Provisions have been made to ensure contaminated and injured personnel receive specialized medical treatment, if necessary. H. B. Magruder Hospital, ProMedica Memorial Hospital, and Mercy St. Charles Hospital have agreed to accept contaminated patients for emergency medical and surgical treatment. If affected personnel must be transported, measures will be taken to limit the spread of contamination.

Any contaminated patient moved to an offsite facility will be accompanied by a member of the RP staff. If during the same incident, more than one victim is involved, the first victim will be accompanied by a member of the RP staff who will remain at the receiving facility during transport of the remaining patients. If more than one offsite facility is involved, then a member of the RP staff shall be present at each offsite facility. If necessary, a physician may be requested to provide onsite medical assistance.

6-14 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX 6.5.4 Medical Transportation Ambulance service for Davis-Besse is provided for by a letter of agreement with Carroll Township Emergency Medical Service.

6.5.5 Medical Treatment Arrangements for hospital and medical services for injured and/or contaminated/over-exposed personnel are provided for by letters of agreement with the. Magruder Hospital; ProMedica Memorial Hospital; Mercy St. Charles Hospital.

The services of the radiological emergency assistance provider assures personnel providing services are prepared and qualified to handle radiological emergencies.

6-15 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX TABLE 6-1 PAGs for the Early Phase of a Nuclear Incident PAG Protective Action (Projected Dose) Comments Evacuation (or sheltering1) 1-5 rem2 Evacuation (or for some situations, sheltering1) should normally be initiated at 1 rem.

>25 life saving or protection only on a voluntary basis to persons fully of large populations aware of the risks involved

¹Sum or external effective dose equivalent and committed effective dose equivalent to nonpregnant adults from exposure and intake during an emergency situation. Workers performing services during emergencies should limit dose to the lens of the eye to three times the listed value and doses to any other organ (including skin and body extremities) to ten times the listed value. These limits apply to all doses from an incident, except those received in unrestricted areas as members of the public during the intermediate phase of the incident.

7-1 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX 7.0 EMERGENCY FACILITIES AND EQUIPMENT This section describes the equipment and facilities used at DBNPS to:

Assess the extent of accident hazards.

Mitigate the consequences of an accident.

Provide protection to station personnel.

Support accident mitigation operations.

Provide immediate care for injured personnel.

A diagram identifying the emergency facilities and their general location relative to each other, is included as Figure 7-1, "Emergency Facilities by General Location". Many of the DBNPS facilities and much of the equipment is normally used for routine plant operations. Other items are reserved for use only on an "as needed" basis.

7.1 DBNPS In-Plant Emergency Facilities 7.1.1 Control Room

a. The Control Room is the location from which the plant is operated. It contains the instrumentation, controls, and displays for:
1. Nuclear systems
2. Reactor coolant systems
3. Steam systems
4. Electrical systems
5. Safety systems (including engineered safety features)
6. Accident monitoring systems.

The operating shift is staffed in accordance with TS 5.2.2 and TRM 10.2.1 requirements. Control manipulations and the safe operation of the plant are directed by the Senior Reactor Operator licensed Shift Manager and Unit Supervisor, and are performed by licensed Reactor Operators.

b. During abnormal operating conditions, the complexity of Station responsibilities increases significantly and the Control Room transforms into an emergency response center. These responsibilities include the following:
1. Diagnosing the abnormal conditions.
2. Performing mitigative actions.
3. Mitigation of abnormal conditions.
4. Management of plant operations.
5. Management of emergency response.
6. Informing Federal, State, and local officials.
7. Recommendations for public protective measures to State and local officials.
8. Restoring the plant to a safe condition.
9. Recovering from the abnormal conditions.

7-2 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX Initially, Control Room personnel will assume all of these responsibilities.

However, by activating other emergency response facilities, much of this responsibility is turned over to other personnel.

During emergencies, the Emergency Assistant Plant Manager uses the Shift Manager's Office, which is within the Control Room envelope, to observe and provide guidance to the Shift Manager for direction and control of in-plant activities.

7.1.2 Operations Support Center (OSC)

The OSC is located on the third floor of the Containment Access Facility. The OSC is the assembly and dispatch point for damage control and repair teams.

Activation of the OSC is required within 60 minutes of the declaration of an Alert or higher classification.

7.2 Davis-Besse Administration Building (DBAB) Facilities The DBAB contains the Emergency Response Facilities (ERFs) necessary to assist Control Room personnel in accident assessment and abnormal operating conditions. The ERF area of the DBAB has been designed to provide radiological habitability for approximately 30 days during a design basis accident, as described in Chapter 15 of the Davis-Besse Updated Safety Analysis Report.

Within this protected environment, the ERFs function to:

1. Help the Control Room staff determine the plant safety status.
2. Relieve the Control Room staff of peripheral duties and communications not directly related to reactor system manipulations.
3. Prevent congestion in the Control Room.
4. Provide assistance to the operators from technical personnel who have comprehensive plant data at their disposal.
5. Provide a coordinated emergency response by both technical and management personnel.
6. Provide reliable communications between onsite and offsite emergency response personnel.
7. Provide relevant plant data to the NRC for its analysis of abnormal plant operating conditions.

The DBAB Annex and the second floor of the DBAB provide general administrative office space for the Station. The ERFs are on the first floor and are either in the restricted (north end) or unrestricted areas (south end).

The restricted area consists of two mechanical equipment rooms, a computer equipment room, telephone equipment room, Technical Support Center (TSC), TSC Library, Radiological Testing Laboratory (RTL), badging area, kitchen, and two areas designated as private office space.

7-3 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX The unrestricted area consists of the Energy Education Center (EEC), a Site Emergency Operations Center (SEOC) and several work/conference rooms. The DBAB is approximately 2100 feet from the Control Room. They are linked by a paved road which is completely contained within the site security boundary.

The water supply to the DBAB can store up to 4,000 gallons within the buildings, if necessary.

Electrical power for the DBAB is supplied by the grid through a power structure approximately 200 feet east of the building. Backup power is provided by a diesel generator and vital loads are protected by an uninterruptible power supply.

The electrical and mechanical systems within the DBAB are computer controlled and activated using the Central Control and Monitoring System (CCMS). This system maintains building temperature and ventilation, and provides security alarms, trouble alarms, and fire protection, as conditions may warrant. For fires, an alarm on the CCMS can automatically activate the dry main sprinkler system in the records management vault; or a wet main sprinkler system in any other area.

To minimize radiation exposure, two emergency ventilation air handling units are provided; one for the restricted area (north end) and one for the remaining areas (south end). By design, either unit can supply the restricted area, should the primary unit fail. Upon local activation, the units will switch to the recirculation mode employing high efficiency filters to minimize the introduction of airborne radiation sources into the emergency facilities.

7.2.1 Technical Support Center (TSC)

The TSC serves as the workplace for key ERO personnel who, during emergencies, assist the Control Room staff, perform accident assessment, and determine appropriate protective actions. The TSC provides for direct voice and data communication with the Control Room. The TSC also contains the Safety Parameters Display System (SPDS).

The SPDS computer was designed to provide sufficient Station information and data communication for operations personnel to evaluate and diagnose station conditions and activities so as to conduct emergency operations in an orderly manner. The SPDS provides data communication to the EOF, TSC, and Control Room. Because the SPDS aids in the detection and monitoring of plant transients and accidents, the SPDS is capable of functioning during and following most events expected to occur during the life of the station.

The TSC is in the restricted side of the DBAB.

The TSC contains workspace for up to 25 people, within a main work area and three conference areas.

Activation and operation of the TSC is required within 60 minutes of the declaration of an Alert or higher classificationcontained in the Emergency Plan Procedures.

7.2.2 Radiological Testing Laboratory (RTL)

The RTL is a facility near the TSC for equipping and dispatching Radiological Monitoring Teams; and for the receipt, counting, and disposition of potentially contaminated environmental samples. The RTL reports to the Dose Assessment Coordinator in the near site EOF.

7-4 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX The RTL is on the ground floor of the DBAB.

7.2.23. Private Office Areas Two areas are available as private office space for the NRC Site Director and other key emergency response officials. These office areas are in the restricted area of the DBAB.

7.2.34 Equipment Rooms The telephone equipment room contains communications equipment necessary to connect the site telephone system into company and external phone systems.

Two mechanical equipment rooms contain redundant systems for electrical distribution, heating and ventilation, and compressed air. Both mechanical equipment rooms are in the restricted side of the DBAB.

7-5 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX 7.3 Near Site Emergency Response Facility The near site emergency response facilities are located near Lindsey, Ohio at the corner of SR 20 and SR 590. The facility houses the Emergency Operations Facility, the Alternate TSC and a muster area for station personnel. The facility has access to station radio and public Address systems. The facility is equipped with an uninterruptable power system and an emergency diesel generator. The Near Site Emergency Response Facilities include the following:

7.3.1 Emergency Operations Facility (EOF)

The EOF provides a central location for the development of protective action recommendations by DBNPS and for representatives from offsite organizations. The EOF staff evaluates the magnitude and effects of actual or potential radioactive releases and provides management assistance in the decision-making process to protect the public health and safety. Recommendations are based on station conditions with radiological and meteorological data obtained, through the Safety Parameters Display System (SPDS) and the Meteorological data acquisition computer. The EOF utilizes various communication systems to establish and maintain communications with State, Federal, and local officials, and mobile RadiationField Monitoring Teams (RFMTs).

The EOF provides space for at least 22 people.

Activation and operation of the EOF is required within 60 minutes of the declaration of an Alert or higher classification.described in the Emergency Plan Procedures.

7.3.2 Alternate TSC The Alternate TSC provides a location for the TSC in the event that the onsite TSC is not available. The Alternate TSC is equipped with those drawings, procedures, computer system and communications to be able to support the onsite response.

Activation and oOperation of the Alternate TSC is described in the Emergency Plan Procedures.

7.3.3. Muster Area A Muster Area for approximately 75 individuals is available for the staging of personnel in the event that the station is not accessible.

7.4 Other Company Emergency Facilities 7.4.1 Joint Information Center (JIC)

The Joint Information Center (JIC) is the emergency facility for coordinating news statements and providing joint media briefings during an event at Davis-Besse. The Company, state, local and federal agencies represented at the JIC jointly prepare news information for release to the public via the news media. Equipment and work spaces for Public Information Officers and their staffs are provided to support timely communications on plant status and emergency response actions. JIC facilities include news briefing areas for electronic and print media representatives. JIC support is available for any plant

DBNPS maintains an Emergency Plan Telephone Directory, which is kept current by the Manager, Regulatory Compliance and Emergency Response. This directory is reviewed quarterly and includes ERO personnel, the radiological emergency assistance provider, hospitals, local, state, and federal agencies, and others with special qualifications for emergency support.

7.7 Alarms There are three station alarms as follows:

7.7.1 FIRE - Rise and Fall Siren 7.7.2 ACCESS EVACUATION - Pulsed Tone Burst 7.7.3 INITIATE EMERGENCY PROCEDURES - Warbled Tone The alarms are activated from the Control Room. The FIRE, INITIATE EMERGENCY PROCEDURES, and ACCESS EVACUATION alarms sound in all plant areas (i.e., station office building, personnel shop facility, radiologically controlled area, fuel handling area, outdoor areas, primary access facility, etc.)

7-10 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX 7.8 Prompt Notification System Early warning of, and instructions to the population-at-risk are done under the direction of the Ohio Emergency Management Agency (OEMA) in conjunction with local officials, the Ottawa County Emergency Management Agency, and the Lucas County Emergency Management Agency. Prompt notification by the DBNPS is the vital first link in this process.

Once local and state authorities have been notified, several methods to warn the population-at-risk can be utilized. The method used and the time required will depend upon the severity of the situation. The methods available are:

7.8.1 Prompt Notification System (PNS) - Fifty-four high powered rotating sirens have been installed to provide an acoustic alerting signal for the residents and transients within the 10-mile radius of the Davis-Besse Station. Each siren is equipped with an independent battery backup which will allow operation during the loss of normal AC electrical power. The sirens have been located to meet the design objectives of Appendix 3 in NUREG-0654/

FEMA-REP-1, REV. 1. Local authorities activate the warning sirens from the Ottawa County Sheriff's Office. The sounding of the Prompt Notification System alerts the public to tune to local radio stations for EAS messages.

The PNS sirens are tested from the Ottawa County Sheriffs Dispatch Center as follows:

A three-minute audible test is performed at least once per year A one-minute audible test is performed at least monthly A three-minute, one-minute or a silent test is performed weekly Back-up Alert and Notification Methods - Backup alert and notification for the Davis-Besse 10-mile EPZ is achieved through pre-planned route alerting. This method has been approved by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). County emergency management agencies will be prepared to make special provisions such as back up route alerting for those areas with sirens out of service, in the event of an emergency. The route alerting system utilizes planned routes for each siren that is unable to be activated.

7.8.2 Emergency Alert System (EAS) - State and local authorities can broadcast information, instructions, and necessary bulletins to the general public over the EAS (e.g., from the local Sheriff's offices or their Emergency Operations Centers).

7.8.3 NOAA National Weather Service alert monitors can be pulsed, and automatically turned on to disseminate emergency information.

7.8.4 Central Dispatching - The Ottawa and Lucas County Sheriff's Offices have central dispatches, manned 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> a day, to communicate with the police, fire, medical responders, and the OEMA.

7.8.5 Commercial Paging System - A paging system, backed up by the local telephone service, is used to permit immediate contact of local officials.

7.8.6 Emergency Vehicles - Vehicles with loudspeakers can be dispatched to various remote locations to broadcast warning messages.

7-11 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX 7.8.7 House-To-House Notification - Local fire and police departments can perform house-to-house notification of residents in the affected areas around the plant.

Notification times have been included in the Evacuation Time Estimate. Information and appropriate advisories developed for the public, including transient areas, concerning the actions to be taken during an emergency, are available. Pertinent information can also be found in the local telephone directories.

Additional information regarding warning capability and information to transient areas around the plant can be found in The Ottawa County Plan for Response to Radiation Emergencies at Licensed Nuclear Facilities,Section II Part D; The Lucas County Radiological Emergency Response Plan,Section II Part E; and The Ohio Radiological Emergency Preparedness Plan and the Ohio Emergency Operations Plan.

7.9 Assessment Facilities The systems and equipment described in the following sections ensure that the capability and resources are available to provide valid and continuing assessment throughout the course of an incident.

7.9.1 Radiation Monitoring System The onsite Radiation Monitoring System contributes to personnel radiological protection within the plant, in accordance with regulatory guidelines. The Radiation Monitoring System detects, alarms, and initiates emergency actions when radiation levels or radionuclide concentrations exceed predetermined levels. To perform these functions, area, liquid, and atmospheric monitoring subsystems are employed.

The data from these subsystems are displayed by readouts in the Control Room.

Additionally, certain monitors sound an alarm and are displayed on the Fire Detection System/Radiation Monitoring System (FDS/RMS) Console in the Control Room. A summary description of individual radiation monitor channels, described below, is provided in the Updated Safety Analysis Report (USAR) Table 11.4-1, Liquid Gas, and Airborne Radiation Monitors, and Table 12.1-3, Area Radiation Monitors.

In general the radiation monitoring equipment is designed in accordance with the following specifications:

a. Each monitoring station has adjustable, high level, low level, and power supply failure alarms.
b. Solid-state circuitry is used except for primary detectors.
c. The safety-related radiation monitors are powered from the essential instrument distribution panels. The non-essential radiation monitors are powered from the uninterruptible instrument distribution panels.
d. With the exception of the Kaman monitors, each radiation monitor is capable of being checked periodically with solenoid actuated check sources.
e. A pulse generator or current source is used for electrically checking each monitor or subsystem. Electrical input tests measure the functional operation of the monitoring system from the detector output through the readout devices.
f. The modules are designed so that an alarm and/or indication is initiated when failure occurs anywhere in the channel.

7-12 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX 7.9.2 Area Radiation Monitoring The Area Radiation Monitoring subsystem is comprised of area monitors located throughout the plant. Under normal operating conditions, the area monitors warn personnel of increasing radiation level, which may result in a radiation health hazard. There are a total of 40 area monitors consisting of two types, Geiger-Mueller detectors and Ionization Chamber detectors. The detectors are housed in weather-proof containers and equipped with a remote controlled check source. The local alarm and readout for each of these channels is separate from the detector and is also housed in a weatherproof container.

These detectors can also monitor the high level of radiation that would be characteristic of the post-accident atmosphere in the containment. The detectors are desensitized by a lead shield.

The Control Room readout modules are located in the radiation monitoring panel in the Control Room.

7.9.3 Atmospheric Radiation Monitoring Atmospheric Radiation Monitoring measures radioactive material contained in the air.

The atmospheric radiation monitoring subsystem is comprised of monitors of the fixed and movable type. Each fixed atmospheric monitor is comprised of a particulate measuring channel, iodine measuring channel, and a gaseous measuring channel. The air sample that passes through each of these channels is obtained by means of a sampler and a pump assembly. Samples are obtained by means of a sampling head placed in a ventilation duct.

Portable atmospheric monitors are available for use during maintenance operations. These monitors are capable of monitoring particulate, iodines, and noble gases. The installed and portable atmospheric monitors provide both an audible alarm and visual indications when pre-determined setpoints are exceded for airborne radioactivity.

7.9.4 Process Radiation Monitoring Process radiation monitoring measures radiation given off radioactive material contained in process fluids within systems.

The process radiation monitoring subsystem consists of monitors each of which consists of a sampler, scintillation detector, and Control Room ratemeter module. The monitors readout in the Control Room on the individual ratemeter and two common recorders.

7-13 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX 7.9.5 Radiation Monitoring Instruments and Equipment Radiation Monitoring Instruments and Equipment includes those instruments and equipment which may be taken into the field (both on and offsite) to determine the presence of gaseous, particulate or airborne radioactive material. This includes general survey instruments. Portable radiation survey instruments and personnel dosimetry and equipment are shown in Table 7-1.

7.9.6 Fire Protection and Detection Devices Fire protection at Davis-Besse is provided by (1) the Fire Protection Water System, and (2) the Fire Detection System.

a. Fire Protection Water System The Fire Protection Water System is a full-loop, piped system that supplies water for (1) sprinklers, (2) deluge water spray, (3) fire hydrants, and (4) hose connections that are located such that they provide fire protection for all major areas of the plant and site.

A Fire Water Storage Tank provides a source of water via the Electric Driven Fire Pump. A jockey pump maintains system piping full and pressurized.

The Diesel Driven Fire Pump takes suction from the intake forebay. In the event that a fire occurs, and either an automatic or manual system is initiated, the Fire Protection Water System piping pressure will decrease and cause the electric (120 psig) and the diesel (100 psig) fire pumps to start at their respective pressure setpoint, to meet system flow requirements.

Sprinkler systems provide a coverage of 0.3 gpm per square foot of floor area, for any (including the most remote) 3,000 square foot area; and 0.2 gpm per square foot, for any 10,000 square foot of floor area under the turbine operating and intermediate floors, and in all areas to which oil may spread in the event of an oil line break. This protection is also provided below major steel grating floor whether or not sprinklers are installed above.

Fire hydrants are connected to the main fire yard loop around the periphery of the station. A distribution header loop is provided within the turbine building, with four branch feeders from the underground fire yard loop. Each section of the header loop and each branch line are provided with isolation valves. The headers supply readily accessible, mounted, fire hose stations located throughout the turbine and auxiliary buildings.

Hose cabinets are provided throughout the auxiliary building. Each hose cabinet contains 50-75 feet of 11/2 inch hose, with an adjustable fog nozzle, and a separate 21/2-inch hose connection for local fire department use. Fire extinguishers are provided throughout the building.

Hose reel units are provided in the turbine building. Each reel is provided with 50-75 feet of 11/2 inch fire hose, and an adjustable fog and stream hose nozzle.

7-14 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX Adjacent to each hose reel is a separate 21/2-inch hose connection for local fire department use. Portable fire extinguishers are located throughout the building.

Fire suppression to the Administration Building, Warehouse, Training Center, Primary Access Facility, and Service Building #3 consists of sprinkler systems and hose stations.

b. Fire Detection System The fire detection system is comprised of detectors located throughout Davis-Besse, especially in those areas not protected by sprinkler systems.
1. Temperature Rise Detectors Temperature rise detectors monitor the protected area and will send a signal to a local control cabinet and Control Room alarm if the rise in temperature reaches a setpoint.
2. Smoke and Vapor Detectors Ionization type smoke detectors monitor the area, and when activated, send a signal to a local control cabinet and Control Room alarm.

The Fire Detection Panels receive their inputs from the various detectors, and in turn send an alarm to the Control Room.

An alarm initiates when any of the following conditions occur within the Fire Detection System:

a) Fire b) Trouble c) Ground Fault If any of the above occur, a line printer, fed by the Fire Detection System/Radiation Monitoring System (FDS/RMS), will print out the alarm in the Control Room.

Upon receipt of an alarm, the Control Room operator acknowledges the alarm on the FDS/RMS console printer, and identifies the specific cause of the alarm.

7.9.7 Seismic Monitoring System The Seismic Monitoring System records (on local recorders for each accelerometer and in a personal computer within the central system in the control room) vibrations in the earth due to a local earthquake. In addition, the system will record the vibrations on man-made structures caused by the earthquake. The data acquired will contribute to the assessment of damage and the determination of cause of damage. The data is useful in confirming the design and analysis of the structure. To aid decision making, alarm lights are provided at the system rack, in the cabinet area of the Control Room. These lights show the

7-15 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX exceedance of Operating Basis Earthquake (OBE) or Safe Shutdown Earthquake (SSE) at the containment foundation.

The sensors and seismic triggers are installed remotely from the system rack, are networked together, and are connected by cables to the rack. (See the Technical Requirements Manual (TRM) for location of the sensors and triggers.)

The four low-level triaxial seismic triggers are networked together, so that any one accelerometer can also trigger the other devices, to turn on the system automatically during the buildup of the event vibrations. The one required seismic trigger (free-field) is set at approximately 0.010g (g=acceleration due to gravity). The recording system includes pre-event (i.e., pre-trigger) data in the event record. Recording continues without interruption for approximately 30 seconds after the last low-level trigger signal. Upon completion of the seismic event recording, data is retrievable from each accelerometer (through an analog-to-digital recorder and data storage memory) and a personal computer in the Control Room, which will provide time history response data and can be readily reviewed without need for conversion to hardcopy. A video display will provide quick, accurate determinations to be made based on the seismic event, and to determine if a plant shutdown is required.

In keeping with the purposes of the system, loss of site power will not prevent system operation. Backup power is supplied from the Station Battery, and also an internal battery in the network control center and each recorder.

In addition to the components associated with the system rack, there are three peak recording accelerometers as listed in the TRM, Table 8.3.3-1, which require no electrical power to operate. After a seismic event operators can remove the three tape strips from each recorder, develop the strips, and determine the peak values recorded at the associated location.

7.9.8 Onsite Meteorological Measurement Programs Data collection from the current onsite meteorological monitoring system began at DBNPS on August 4, 1974. The location of both meteorological towers is such that the meteorological data from the towers are representative of the DBNPS site. The system includes two levels of instrumentation on a 340-foot freestanding tower and one level of instrumentation on a 35-foot satellite tower. Both towers are located in the southwest corner of the site approximately 2800 feet from DBNPS.

Wind direction and speed are measured at the 250 and 340-foot levels on the freestanding tower and at 35 feet on the satellite tower. Differential temperature measurements (T) are made between 35 and 250 feet and between 35 and 340 feet on the free standing tower.

The Control Room, Emergency Operations Facility (EOF), and Technical Support Center (TSC) can obtain meteorological data through the data acquisition computer in the TSC.

The Control Room can display meteorological data with the PI Process Book. The EOF and TSC can display meteorological data on the Plant Computer System. All meteorological data are recorded on strip chart. Dual-channel strip chart recorders are used for recording wind speed and direction; one recorder for each tower level. Ambient temperature, dewpoint, delta T, and precipitation are recorded on one multipoint strip chart recorder; each parameter is recorded on an individual channel. The data recording and

7-16 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX signal conditioning equipment is housed in an environmentally controlled out structure located near the base of the tower.

The meteorological instruments at DBNPS are calibrated at least semiannually. The instrumentation and records are checked on a nominal daily basis for proper functioning of equipment. All maintenance and calibrations are performed in accordance with written procedures.

Backup meteorological data (i.e., wind speed and direction) are available from the National Weather Service. Arrangements have also been made to obtain complete backup meteorological information from the Enrico Fermi Nuclear Power Station at Newport, Michigan. Backup hydrological data can be obtained from the Marblehead Coast Guard Station, and the Port Clinton Sewage treatment plant (lake level and precipitation respectively).

7.9.9 Control Room Instrumentation Control Room Instrumentation measures appropriate parameters that are indicative of the status of various plant systems and the reactor itself.

The Post Accident Monitoring System (PAMS) is also available to follow the course of an accident with wide range instrumentation. This system will provide to the plant operators, the essential safety status information necessary to allow them to return the plant to a maintained, safe, shutdown condition.

USAR Table 7.5-1 provides a listing and a description of Control Room instrumentation, including PAMS that would be used in performing continued assessment of plant conditions.

7.9.10 Laboratory Facilities The Davis-Besse laboratory facilities are equipped to provide the water chemistry and radiochemical analysis support required during normal plant operations. This equipment can also be utilized in the analysis of abnormal events to assist in the diagnosis of plant operation when conditions permit.

If an accident occurs which would make normal sampling and counting methods impractical, the following measures can be taken:

a. A Radiological Testing Laboratory (RTL) is located in the DBAB in the restricted area near the TSC. Its primary functions are to act as a staging area for Radiation Monitoring Teams and provide a handling area for environmental samples.
b. For reactor coolant system sampling, a shielded, high-pressure sampler is available for pressurized samples. These samples are obtained using the Post Accident Sampling System (PASS) which was designed specifically for this purpose.
c. For containment atmosphere sampling, the normal sampling procedure is used. If any channel of the RE 4597 series monitor is off scale or an independent sample and analysis is required, a grab sample can be obtained from the Emergency Grab Sample System.

7-17 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX

d. For station vent sampling, procedure guidance exists for sampling using either the normal or accident range station vent monitors. Provisions are included to replace and quantify radioactive particulate and iodine sampling media. Also if RE 4598 series Channel 1, 2 or 3 is off scale, a portable survey instrument on the sample line can be used and dose rate is then converted to µCi/cc.

7.9.1011 Facilities and Equipment for Offsite Monitoring A complete Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program (REMP) for effluent control has been established at the DBNPS. The program has been in effect since August 1972.

The REMP employs fixed radiation/radionuclide detection and measurement instruments at various locations within a 25 mile radius from DBNPS. Samples of vegetation, water, soil, milk, and produce are routinely collected and analyzed. The REMP is conducted under the guidance contained in the Davis-Besse Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM).

During emergencies at DBNPS, baseline data from the REMP will be used in assessing the radiological effects of any possible releases on the environment.

DBNPS maintainshas three, four-wheel drive vehicles, equipped to perform field monitoring during emergencies. These vehicles are available within about 30 minutes after declaration of an emergency. RadiationField Monitoring Teams (RFMTs), dispatched at an ALERT or higher, will conduct emergency field monitoring of radiation and airborne activity levels throughout the EPZ, under direction from the Dose Assessment Center, in the EOF. Monitoring results will be used to verify plume boundaries and to adjust dose projections for more correct protective action recommendations.

7.10 Protective Facilities and Equipment Personnel protective action at DBNPS is a function of the nature of the hazards, for instance, preparing for a hurricane is somewhat different from preparing for radiological hazards.

Preplanned responses to the basic hazards, such as high winds, flooding, earthquakes, and radiation exposures are an integral part of the DBNPS Emergency Plan and are therefore discussed separately. A fundamental concept in personnel protection is the immediate release and removal of all individuals not essential to the operation, safety, security, and damage control of the plant.

Obviously some hazards can occur before any protective action can be taken. When the situation permits, the appropriate alarms are sounded and all personnel on site either assume their assigned emergency responsibilities, or are assembled at the designated points for accountability prior to release from the site or reassignment to an emergency team.

Protected facilities include the DBNPS Control Room and the emergency facilities on the first floor of the Administration Building. These areas are located in seismically rated structures and have adequate shielding to permit safe occupation for extended periods of time without exceeding a dose limit. The ventilation systems in these facilities have redundant fans and chillers and are provided with appropriate alarms and interlocks. Provisions have also been made for the air to be recirculated through high efficiency particulate (HEPA), and activated charcoal filters when necessary.

Self contained breathing apparatus (SCBAs) are located in the Control Room to permit continued occupancy if ventilation systems fail. Air-purifying respirators are available in the Radiologically

7-18 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX Controlled Area and would be provided to Control Room personnel as needed. Additional SCBAs, protective clothing, and respirators are available at, or near, each onsite ERF, and are listed in applicable Radiation Protection Procedures and Emergency Plan Procedures.

Parts for the respirators and SCBAs, as well as additional protective clothing are available through the FENOC Supply Chain.

7.11 First Aid and Medical Facilities First aid facilities at DBNPS are designed to support immediate care ranging from simple first aid to procedures requiring a physician. The most readily available first aid is provided by the small kits placed throughout the plant. These kits contain items typically needed to care for minor injuries.

More complete medical cabinets are located throughout the site and contain medical supplies needed to care for more serious injuries.

7.12 Damage Control Equipment The DBNPS is extensively equipped to conduct preventive and mitigative maintenance and repairs on mechanical, structural, electrical and instrumentation and control equipment found in the station.

Each maintenance crew is qualified and, when required, certified to perform the tasks associated with their craft in the working environment of a nuclear plant.

In addition to the equipment and materials required for normal maintenance, other items are available to handle extraordinary maintenance jobs that might arise in damage control. Refer to the appropriate system procedure or Emergency Plan Procedure for equipment lists.

9-1 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX 9.0 REENTRY AND RECOVERY 9.1 Reentry During an emergency, immediate actions are directed toward limiting the consequences of the accident, so as to afford maximum protection to Station personnel and the general public. Once mitigative measures have been taken and effective control reestablished, the response efforts shift towards reentry and recovery. Reentry is made to perform certain essential actions which could not be performed coincident with the immediate response to the emergency.

Offsite Reentry is the responsibility of state and local authorities. It typically consists of environmental monitoring and assessment of the actions required to support return of the public to evacuated areas and residences. Additional details regarding plans and procedures for offsite reentry are found in The Ohio Radiological Emergency Preparedness Plan and the Ohio Emergency Operations Plan . DBNPS will provide support and assistance to offsite agencies as requested to facilitate these efforts.

Onsite reentry is made when the emergency situation is under control and more deliberate planning can be made for the activities to be performed. These activities may occur prior to termination of the emergency, or they may be conducted as part of the Recovery phase of the response. All reentry actions conducted prior to the termination of the emergency will be authorized by the Emergency CoordinatorPlant Manager, and coordinated by the Operations Support Center (OSC)

CoordinatorManager and the Emergency Radiation Protection (RP) CoordinatorManager. Reentry conducted during Recovery will be authorized by the Plant Recovery Manager. When preplanning these initial onsite reentries, the following items will typically be considered:

9.1.1 Review available radiation surveillance data to determine plant areas potentially affected by radiation and/or contamination.

9.1.2 Review radiation dose histories of personnel required to participate in the recovery operations.

9.1.3 Determine the need for additional personnel and the source of these additional personnel.

9.1.4 Review adequacy of radiation survey instrumentation and equipment (i.e., types, ranges, number, calibration).

9.1.5 Pre-plan survey team activities to include:

a. Areas to be surveyed
b. Anticipated radiation and contamination levels
c. Radiation survey equipment required
d. Shielding requirements and availability
e. Protective clothing and equipment required
f. Access control procedures (issuance of new RWPs) including exposure control limits and personnel dosimetry required
g. Decontamination requirement
h. Communications requirements

9-2 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX 9.1.6 Review and revise security access lists to prevent unauthorized or unintentional entry into hazardous areas.

9.1.7 Reentry teams should be tasked with as many of the following as possible:

a. Determination of the initial required recovery operations.
b. Observation of hazards or potential hazards associated with the recovery operations.
c. Conducting comprehensive surveillance of plant facilities.
d. Isolating and posting of areas in the plant with appropriate warning signs and rope barriers, such as Radiation Areas, High Radiation Areas, High Airborne Activity Areas, and Contaminated Areas, etc.
e. Assessing the conditions of station equipment and areas.

In the period immediately following an accident, initial radiation monitoring functions involve only gross hazard evaluations, isolation of the hazard, and the definition of radiological problem areas. This immediate radiation surveillance activity is used to provide the basic information for recovery operations.

9.2 Recovery The Emergency Director and Emergency CoordinatorPlant Manager have the joint responsibility for determining when an emergency situation is stable and the Station is ready to enter the recovery phase. The Recovery Organization will develop and coordinate plans and schedules for recovery operations.

The Emergency CoordinatorPlant Manager, under the direction of the Emergency Director, will be responsible at the site for coordinating onsite recovery activities and the return to normal operations.

At the time that an emergency has been terminated, and Recovery has been initiated, the EOFmergency Offsite Manager will be responsible for providing notification to Federal agencies.all applicable agencies (federal, state, county, etc.).

9.2.1 Prior to terminating an emergency and entering the Recovery phase, the Emergency Director will coordinate with the Emergency CoordinatorPlant Manager and the EOF mergency Offsite Manager to ensure that the following criteria have been considered:

a. The conditions which caused the emergency have stabilized, are under control, and are unlikely to deteriorate further.
b. The plume is beyond the ten-mile Emergency Planning Zone, and/or plume tracking is no longer required. The only environmental assessment activities in progress may be those necessary to assess the extent of deposition resulting from passage of the plume.

9-3 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX

c. In-plant radiation levels are acceptable, and are stable or decreasing.
d. Radioactive releases are under control and are no longer in excess of technical specification limits.
e. The potential for uncontrolled radioactive releases is acceptably low.
f. Containment pressure is within technical specifications.
g. The reactor is in a stable safe shutdown condition and long-term core cooling is available as required.
h. Any fire, flood, earthquake or similar emergency condition no longer exist.
i. All contaminated injured, personnel have been transported to a medical care facility.
j. All required notifications have been made.
k. Offsite conditions will not limit access of personnel and support resources to DBNPS.
l. Discussions have been held with all offsite and select regulatory agencies, and agreement has been reached to terminate the emergency.

9.2.2 The extent of recovery activities will dictate the precise framework of the Recovery Organization:

a. For events of a minor nature, the normal onshift organization should be adequate to perform necessary recovery actions (e.g., for UNUSUAL EVENT classifications).
b. For events involving significant damage to plant systems required to maintain operation of the plant, the onsite emergency organization, or portions thereof, should be adequate to coordinate the necessary recovery actions (e.g., for ALERT classifications).
c. For events involving damage to plant systems required to maintain safe shutdown of the reactor, a formal Recovery Organization will be established to manage the recovery actions (e.g., for SITE AREA or GENERAL EMERGENCY classifications).

Particular attention should be directed toward isolating components and systems as required to control or minimize the hazards. A systematic investigation will be conducted to determine the extent of any equipment damage. Recovery operations are considered to be terminated when the plant has returned to pre-accident levels of radiation and contamination or to conditions, which are acceptable and controllable for an extended period of time.

9-4 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX Recovery operations that may result in the release of radioactive materials shall be evaluated by the Recovery Director. Such events and data pertaining to the release will be reported to the appropriate offsite emergency organizations and agencies.

In the final phase of the recovery operations, a restoration program will begin. The overall purpose of the restoration program is to prepare for resumption of full-power operations. This program will include a detailed incident analysis.

Determinations will be made as to the repair work required to perform needed modifications to plant equipment and/or operating procedures. Repair work and approved modifications will be carried out as authorized. Test programs to confirm fitness and acceptability to return to service will be developed and executed.

Since no emergency is considered to exist during this time period, normal limits of radiation dose will be applied during the restoration. Compliance with the limits are the responsibility of the Recovery Director.

A recovery plan, must be flexible enough to adapt to existing, rather than theoretical, conditions. It is not possible to anticipate in advance all of the conditions that may be encountered in an emergency situation. Therefore, the DBNPS plan addresses some general principles that will serve as a guide for developing a flexible plan of action.

Specific members of the Recovery Organization will be selected based upon the sequence of events that preceded the recovery activities.

9.2.3 The following is a basic framework for the formation of a formal Recovery Organization. The reporting chain for the organization is outlined in Figure 9-1.

This organization may be modified as necessary for any particular incident.

a. Recovery Director The Recovery Director is responsible for directing the activities of the Recovery Organization, including the following:
1. Ensure that sufficient personnel from DBNPS and other organizations are available to support recovery.
2. Direct the development of a recovery plan and implementing procedures, as required.
3. Coordinate the deactivations of emergency response facilities and personnel as appropriate.
4. Coordinate the integration of available state and federal assistance into recovery activities.

2-1 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX 2.0 SCOPE AND APPLICABILITY The Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Emergency Plan has been developed to provide a description of the station's response during emergencies. The description includes organizational control, equipment, supplies, facilities, and protective actions that may be used in mitigating the consequences of an emergency. Emergency Preparedness exists to provide direction for emergencies varying in severity from relatively minor ones with no health and safety implications to events presenting an actual or potential offsite radiological hazard.

This Emergency Plan is a detailed expansion of the Updated Safety Analysis Report, Section 13.3.

It is intended to satisfy the requirements of Title 10 Code of Federal Regulations, Section 50, Appendix E, Emergency Planning and Preparedness for Production and Utilization Facilities.

Furthermore, this document satisfies the requirements of NUREG 0654/FEMA REP. 1, Rev. 1, Criteria for Preparation and Evaluation of Radiological Emergency Response Plans and Preparedness in Support of Nuclear Power Plants.

This Emergency Plan is not the primary working document to be used during an emergency. The purpose of the Emergency Plan is to describe the program established at DBNPS to satisfy regulatory requirements and to safeguard the public and plant personnel in the event of an emergency.

2.1 Site Description The DBNPS is located on the southwestern shore of Lake Erie in Ottawa County, Ohio, approximately six (6) miles northeast of Oak Harbor, Ohio.

DBNPS employs a pressurized light water reactor steam supply system furnished by the Babcock & Wilcox Co. (now Framatome) to generate approximately 930 MWe. The reactor design core power is 2817 MWt.

The Station encompasses 954 acres, of which more than 700 acres is marsh land. A portion of the marsh land is leased to the U.S. Government as a natural wildlife refuge. The land area surrounding the site is generally agricultural, with no major industry in the vicinity of the site.

The topography in the vicinity of DBNPS is flat, with marsh areas bordering the lake and the upland area rising to only 10-15 feet above the lake low water datum level. The site itself varies in elevation from marsh bottom, below Lake Level, to approximately six feet above the lake low water datum level.

The site has been built up from 6 to 14 feet above the existing grade elevation to an elevation of 584 feet International Great Lakes Datum (IGLD). This provides flood protection from the maximum credible water level conditions of Lake Erie. The three sides of the station with exposure to the lake are provided with a dike to an elevation of 591 feet IGLD to protect the facility from wave effects during maximum credible water level conditions.

2-2 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX The Station structures are located approximately in the center of the site, 3000 feet from the shoreline. This provides a minimum exclusion distance of 2400 feet from any point of the site boundary.

Ohio Route 2 approaches the site from the city of Port Clinton, Ohio, to the southeast, and forms the west boundary of the site. At the north boundary of the site, Ohio Route 2 turns west and proceeds towards Oregon and Toledo, Ohio. Four (4) all-weather roads provide access to the site from Ohio Route 2. Figure 2-1 shows the general site location.

Site meteorological data for 2007 indicates that the prevailing winds at 10 meters above ground level are from the south/southwest. The average wind velocity at this level is 9.42 miles per hour (4.21 meters per second). Figure 2-2 shows the average wind distribution.

The primary source of potable water in the area is Lake Erie. The nearest offsite public potable water intake serves Camp Perry, the Erie Industrial Park, and surrounding residences; and is located approximately 2.8 miles from the site. Another potable water intake, which serves residents of Carroll Township, including Davis-Besse, is located approximately four miles west-northwest of the site. The Ottawa County Regional Water Systems potable water intake is eight miles east of the site. This system serves Port Clinton, Oak Harbor and the eastern end of Ottawa County. The Toledo and Oregon intakes are 13 miles west of the site. Most of the residents in the vicinity of the site not serviced by the municipal water suppliers, either have their water trucked in, or utilize well water which is periodically tested for potability by local authorities. DBNPS personnel periodically test local water sources for radioactivity.

2.2 Population Distribution NOTE: The following information regarding population distribution is for historical purposes only. For current population estimates refer to Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Development of Evacuation Time Estimates, Final Report Revision 2, which has been prepared in accordance with NUREG 0654/FEMA Rev.-1, Appendix 4.

The near-site population is distributed from the southeast to the west northwest. The total permanent population in the 10-mile area surrounding DBNPS, based on 2010 Census information is 20,403 people. Approximately 89% of these people live 5 to 10 miles from the site. The population varies seasonally due to tourism in the area and the summer home residents. Figures indicating the permanent and seasonal population distribution projections in the 0 to 2 mile, 2 to 10 mile, and 10 to 50 mile radii are included in Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Development of Evacuation Time Estimates, Final Report Revision 2, which has been prepared in accordance with NUREG 0654/FEMA Rev.-1, Appendix 4.

The EPZ permanent resident population is reviewed annually. If at any time during the decennial period the EPZ permanent resident population increases such that it causes the longest ETE value for the 2-mile zone or 5- mile zone, including all affected Emergency Response Planning Areas, or for the entire 10-mile EPZ to increase by 25 percent or 30 minutes, whichever is less, from the currently NRC approved or updated ETE, Fleet updates the ETE analysis to reflect the impact of that population increase. The updated ETE analysis is submitted to the NRC under 10 CFR 50.4 no later than 365 days after Fleet determines the criteria for updating the ETE have been met and at least 180 days before

2-3 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX using it to form protective action recommendations and providing it to state and local governmental authorities for use in developing offsite protective action strategies.

The nearest population center of 25,000 or more is Toledo, Ohio, 20 miles west-northwest of the site. Other population centers within a 50-mile radius in excess of 25,000 include Bowling Green (33 miles), Findlay (45 miles), Lorain (46 miles), and Sandusky (20 miles) in Ohio; Allen Park (40 miles),

Dearborn (40 miles),

Detroit (40 miles), Inkster (40 miles),

Lincoln Park (40 miles), Monroe (26 miles), Southgate (40 miles), Westland (40 miles),

and Wyandotte (41 miles), in Michigan; and Windsor (50 miles) in Ontario, Canada.

2.3 Emergency Planning Zones In defining the Emergency Planning Zones (EPZs) for the DBNPS, factors such as organizational capabilities, method of implementing the emergency plan, and the availability of onsite and offsite emergency facilities and equipment have been taken into consideration.

Two primary zones have been identified for development of emergency planning and implementation of the Plan. One zone has a 10-mile radius. This EPZ is referred to as the Plume Exposure Planning Zone. Within this zone, evacuation or sheltering may be recommended for the general public. The principal concern in the 10-mile EPZ is direct exposure from a passing plume and/or inhalation of radionuclides from the plume. This 10-mile EPZ is comprised of part of Ottawa County and part of Lucas County.

The second zone, the Ingestion Exposure Planning Zone, extends to a 50-mile radius. The principal concern in the 50-mile EPZ, or Ingestion Pathway EPZ, is long-term exposure from ingested material. Within the Ingestion Pathway EPZ, close monitoring of water, crops, dairy cows and farm animals may be necessary. It may also be necessary to segregate and/or remove contaminated items from the food chain (e.g., milk, fresh vegetables, etc.). This 50-mile EPZ is comprised of all of Ottawa, Lucas, Wood, Sandusky, Erie, Seneca, Huron, Lorain, Fulton, Henry, Crawford, Hancock, and Wyandot Counties in Ohio; and all of Monroe, Lenawee, Washtenaw and Wayne Counties in Michigan. Essex County and part of Kent County within the province of Ontario, Canada are also contained within this 50-mile Emergency Planning Zone.

Figures 2-3 and 2-4 show the 10-mile and 50-mile EPZs.

2.4 Regulatory Requirements 2.4.1 The Code of Federal Regulations contains requirements for emergency planning in the following sections:

SUMMARY

OF THE EMERGENCY PLAN The DBNPS Emergency Plan has been established in accordance with the requirements of 10 CFR 50.47 and Appendix E to 10 CFR 50, supplemented by the guidance issued by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission in NUREG-0654/ FEMA-REP-1 and other documents.

The Emergency Plan will be put into effect whenever a radiological emergency or other potentially hazardous situation is identified. The details of the Emergency Plan Procedures are not included herein, but a description of the scope of the procedures demonstrates that appropriate actions can be taken by DBNPS and other support agencies to protect station personnel and the general public during emergencies.

The Emergency Plan establishes the concepts, evaluation and assessment criteria, and protective actions that are necessary in order to mitigate the consequences of radiological emergencies. The plan provides for the necessary prearrangements, directions, and organization needed to safeguard station personnel, and the property and safety of the general public.

3.1 Emergency Plan Steps In general, the Emergency Plan encompasses the following basic steps:

a) Recognition of the emergency b) Classification of the emergency c) Required notifications and activation of the responding organization(s) d) Ongoing assessment of the situation e) Periodic dissemination of updated information f) Determination and initiation of protective actions g) Determination and initiation of mitigative actions h) Aid to affected persons i) Reentry and Recovery During response to an emergency, several of the steps may be performed concurrently.

3.2 Emergency Organizations This document establishes an organization capable of responding to the complete range of incidents covered herein.

Provisions are made for rapid mobilization of the response organization and for expanding the response organization if the situation dictates.

An individual with the authority and responsibility to initiate any emergency actions under the provisions of this Emergency Plan, including the release of information to the public/media, is onsite at all times. The Shift Manager assumes this authority by becoming the Emergency Coordinator upon initial classification of an emergency. If the Shift Manager cannot assume these duties, authority is delegated to the Unit Supervisor or Shift Engineer (Shift Technical Advisor) in that order.

The operating shift crew is responsible for implementing emergency procedures in accordance with assigned response functions. Emergency response functions are also

3-2 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX assigned to off-shift plant staff personnel who can be rapidly alerted and mobilized, to augment or relieve the operating shift personnel of emergency duties.

If required, additional support is provided by the Fleet Emergency Response Organization.

Fleet emergency response management and their staff may provide technical, administrative, and logistical support to the onsite Emergency Organization. They may authorize emergency expenditures, coordinate the efforts of offsite support organizations, and maintain the flow of information to the public.

In addition, this plan includes the use of offsite agencies and organizations that have signed letters of agreement with the DBNPS. Their designated response functions include implementation of offsite protective actions, transportation and treatment of personnel, control of access to the station, fire fighting support, radiological sampling and assessment, technical consultation, and testing. These offsite agencies and organizations include the following:

4-1 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX 4.0 EMERGENCY CONDITIONS 4.1 Emergency Classification Levels (ECLs)

The Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Emergency Plan emergencies are divided into four Emergency Classification Levels (ECLs): GENERAL EMERGENCY, SITE AREA EMERGENCY, ALERT, and UNUSUAL EVENT.

The ECLs are arranged from most severe to least severe according to relative threat to the health and safety of the public and emergency workers. An ECL is determined to be met by identifying abnormal conditions and then comparing them to INITIATING CONDITIONS (ICs) through EMERGENCY ACTION LEVELS (EAL) and Fission Product Barrier (FPB) threshold values as discussed below. When multiple EALs are met, event declaration is based in the highest ECL reached. Emergency Plan, Section 6.0, Emergency Measures, summarizes the emergency measures to be taken by both the Onsite and corporate emergency response organizations.

4.1.1 GENERAL EMERGENCY Events are in progress or have occurred which involve actual or IMMINENT substantial core degradation or melting with potential for loss of containment integrity or HOSTILE ACTION that results in an actual loss of physical control of the facility.

Releases can be reasonably expected to exceed EPA Protective Action Guideline exposure levels offsite for more than the immediate site area.

4.1.2 SITE AREA EMERGENCY Events are in progress or have occurred which involve an actual or likely major failures of plant functions needed for protection of the public or HOSTILE ACTION that results in intentional damage or malicious acts: 1) toward site personnel or equipment that could lead to the likely failure of or, 2) that prevent effective access to equipment needed for the protection of the public. Any releases are not expected to result in exposure levels which exceed EPA Protective Action Guideline exposure levels beyond the site boundary.

4.1.3 ALERT Events are in progress or have occurred which involve an actual or potential substantial degradation of the level of safety of the plant or a security event that involves probable life threatening risk to site personnel or damage to site equipment because of HOSTILE ACTION. Any releases are expected to be limited to small fractions of the EPA Protective Action Guideline exposure levels.

4.1.4 UNUSUAL EVENT Events are in progress or have occurred which indicate a potential degradation of the level of safety of the plant or indicate a security threat to facility protection has been initiated. No releases of radioactive material requiring offsite response or monitoring are expected unless further degradation of safety systems occurs.

4-2 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX 4.1.5 RECOVERY Recovery may be entered prior to returning to a normal organization and operation.

Recovery provides dedicated resources and organizational structure in support of restoration and communication activities following the termination of the emergency event. Recovery phase is discussed in Section 9.0 of the Emergency Plan.

4.2 EMERGENCY CLASSIFICATION The Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station maintains the capability to assess, classify, and declare an emergency condition within 15 minutes of the availability of indications that an EAL has been exceeded. The 15-minute criterion commences when plant instrumentation, plant alarms, computer displays, or incoming verbal reports that correspond to an EAL first become available to any plant operator.

4.3 INITIATING CONDITION (ICs)

The INITIATING CONDITION (IC), EMERGENCY ACTION LEVELS (EALs) and the Fission Product Barrier (FPB) matrix with their related basis information are located in Appendix E of the Emergency Plan. The ICs provide a general description of emergency conditions that are organized beneath the broader categories of the ECLs. The IC can be a continuous, measurable function that is outside Technical Specifications, or encompass events such as FIRES or system/equipment failures.

Each IC is given a unique identification code consisting of four characters. The first character (letter) identifies the recognition category, the second character (letter) identifies the ECL, the third character (number) identifies the subcategory, and the fourth character (number) identifies the numerical sequence within the subcategory.

4.3.1 Recognition Category Codes F designates Fission Product Barrier Degradation R designates Abnormal Rad Levels / Rad Effluent H designates Hazards and Other Conditions Affecting Plant Safety S designates System Malfunctions C designates Cold Shutdown / Refueling System Malfunction E designates Dry Fuel Storage Facility (DFSF) 4.3.2 Emergency Classification Level (ECL) Codes G designates GENERAL EMERGENCY S designates SITE AREA EMERGENCY A designates ALERT U designates UNUSUAL EVENT The specific details on Initiating Conditions and their use are found in RA-EP-01500, Emergency Classification. The basis for the Emergency Action Levels is contained in

4-3 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX Appendix E, DBRM-EMER-1500 A, Davis-Besse Emergency Action Levels Basis Document.

4.4 EMERGENCY ACTION LEVELS (EALs) and Fission Product Barriers (FPBs)

EMERGENCY ACTION LEVELS (EALs) are predetermined, site specific, observable conditions within the ICs that place the state of the plant in a given ECL (Reference Emergency Plan, Appendix E).

EALs are individually identified by the IC identification code followed by the EAL number, such as RG1.1 for major effluent release or HU3.1 for tornado.

Fission Product Barriers (FPBs) are given unique character identification codes and are further subdivided into Loss and Potential loss categories. Meeting or exceeding one or more FPB can result in various ECLs. The first two letters simply identify the particular barrier by abbreviation. The letter in the FPB identification code associates it with a particular FPB recognition category. The FPB identification codes are developed as follows:

4.4.1 Barrier Abbreviation Codes FC designates FUEL CLAD RC designates REACTOR COOLANT CT designates CONTAINMENT 4.4.2 Fission Product Barriers (FPBs) Recognition Categories Codes A designates RCS or SG Tube Leakage B designates Inadequate Heat Removal C designates CT Radiation / RCS Activity D designates CT Integrity or Bypass E designates ED Judgment Fission Product Barrier Thresholds are listed within each Fission Product Barrier Category and are identified by a sequential number.

FPBs are treated the same as EALs in that they exist only as long as the condition(s) for loss or potential loss exist, as opposed to ECLs which once declared, remain in place until termination or recovery.

For EALs that contain time imbedded criterion, the Emergency Coordinator should not wait until the applicable time period has elapsed but should declare the event as soon as it is determined that the condition will likely exceed the applicable time.

4-4 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX 4.4.3 Operating Mode Applicability For purposes of event classification, the following operating mode applicability definitions establish the conditions when the EAL or FPB thresholds represent a threat:

TABLE 4-1 Operating Mode Applicability Reactivity  % Rated Average Coolant Mode Condition, Keff Thermal Power* Temperature

1) Power Operation 0.99 > 5% N/A
2) Startup 0.99 5% N/A
3) Hot Standby < 0.99 N/A 280° F
4) Hot Shutdown < 0.99 N/A 280° F > Tavg > 200° F
5) Cold Shutdown < 0.99 N/A 200° F
6) Refueling One or more vessel head closure bolts less than fully tensioned.

D) Defueled All reactor fuel removed from reactor pressure vessel (full core off load during refueling or extended outage).

  • Excluding decay heat.

The Operating Mode Applicability table is based on the Technical Specifications definition of Operational Mode. ICs are based on the operating mode that exists at the time the event occurred, prior to any protective system or operator action initiated in response.

For events that occur in Cold Shutdown or Refueling, escalation is via EALs that have Cold Shutdown or Refueling for mode applicability, even if Hot Shutdown (or a higher mode) is entered during any subsequent heat-up. In particular, the FPB threshold values are applicable only to events that initiate in Hot Shutdown or higher.

If there is a change in operating mode following an event declaration, any subsequent events involving EALs outside of the current declaration escalation path will be evaluated on the mode of the plant at the time the subsequent events occur.

4.4.4 Treatment of Multiple Events and Classification Level Upgrading When multiple simultaneous events occur, the emergency classification level is based on the highest EAL reached. For example, two ALERTS remain in the ALERT category; or, an ALERT and a SITE AREA EMERGENCY is a SITE AREA EMERGENCY.

Although the majority of the EALs provide very specific thresholds, the Emergency

4-5 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX Coordinator must remain alert to events or conditions that lead to the conclusion that exceeding the EAL is IMMINENT. If, in the judgment of the Emergency Coordinator, an IMMINENT situation is at hand, the classification should be made as if the threshold has been exceeded. While this is particularly prudent at the higher emergency classification levels (as the early classification may provide for more effective implementation of protective measures), it is nonetheless applicable to all emergency classification levels. Figure 6-1 illustrates the scheme for upgrading emergency classification based on current conditions.

4.4.5 Emergency Classification Level Downgrading Another important aspect of usable EAL guidance is the consideration of what to do when the risk posed by an emergency is clearly decreasing. A combination approach involving recovery from a GENERAL EMERGENCY and some SITE AREA EMERGENCIES and termination from UNUSUAL EVENTS, ALERTS, and certain SITE AREA EMERGENCIES causing no long term plant damage appears to be the best choice. Downgrading to lower emergency classification levels adds notifications but may have merit under certain circumstances. Figure 6-1 illustrates the options for downgrading or termination of events based on current plant conditions. Recovery phase is discussed in Section 9.2.

4.4.6 Classifying Transient Events For some events, the condition may be corrected before a declaration has been made.

The key consideration in this situation is to determine whether or not further plant damage occurred while the mitigative actions were being taken. In some situations, this can be readily determined, in other situations, further analyses (e.g., coolant radiochemistry sampling) may be necessary. Classify the event as indicated and terminate the emergency once assessment shows that there were no consequences from the event and other termination criteria are met.

Existing guidance for classifying transient events addresses the period of time of event recognition and classification (15 minutes). However, in cases when EAL declaration criteria may be met momentarily during the normal expected response of the plant, declaration requirements should not be considered to be met when the conditions are a part of the designed plant response, or result from appropriate operator actions.

There may be cases in which a plant condition that exceeded an EAL was not recognized at the time of occurrence but is identified well after the condition has occurred (e.g., as a result of routine log or record review), and the condition no longer exists. In these cases, an emergency should not be declared.

Reporting requirements of 10 CFR 50.72 are applicable and the guidance of NUREG-1022, Event Reporting Guidelines, 10 CFR 50.72 and 50.73, should be applied.

5-1 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX 5.0 ORGANIZATIONAL CONTROL OF EMERGENCIES In planning for emergencies the availability of the normally present operating staff, augmented by support from other utility personnel and offsite support agencies, is considered. Augmented resources will be capable of: (1) determining that an emergency exists, (2) providing initial classification and assessment, (3) promptly notifying other groups and individuals in the emergency organization, and (4) performing actions immediately necessary to protect site personnel and the public. In the case of an ALERT or higher this will result in the mobilization of the Emergency Response Organization (ERO).

This section of the Emergency Plan addresses the assignment of personnel and the establishment of responsibilities and authority for the:

5.1 DBNPS Organization 5.2 DBNPS Emergency Management 5.3 Onshift Emergency Response Organization 5.4 Onsite Emergency Response Organization 5.5 Near Site Emergency Response Organization 5.6 Joint Information Center (JIC) 5.7 Supporting Emergency Organizations 5.1 DBNPS Organization Daily operating and engineering activities at DBNPS are under the control of the Vice President - Nuclear.

DBNPS has engineering service contracts with the Nuclear Steam Supply System (NSSS) supplier and the Architect-Engineer. Organizational structure and communication arrangements exist to assure that these services are available and can be obtained in a timely manner.

5.1.1 Plant Management and Administrative Organization The General Plant Manager directs and supervises all operating, administrative, technical and maintenance activities in connection with the continuous, efficient and safe operation of the DBNPS.

To support the General Plant Manager, an administrative organization has been established. Responsibilities have been assigned for the various aspects of station operation.

5-2 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX 5.1.2 Onshift Operations Group The Normal Onshift Operations Group at the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station maintains the capability at all times to perform the emergency detection, classification, and notification functions required in the early phases of an incident.

These capabilities are augmented, as required, by the Onsite Emergency Response Organization and the Fleet Emergency Response Organization.

The Onshift Operations Group conforms with ANSI N18.1 and includes both management and operating personnel. Continuous duty, 24 hour2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />s-per-day organizations include Plant Operations, Radiation Protection and Security.

5.1.3 Normal Plant Shift Staffing The plants operating staff meets or exceeds the requirements of Technical Specification 5.2.2 and Technical Requirements Manual 10.2.1.

6-1 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX 6.0 EMERGENCY MEASURES This section identifies the specific measures that are taken for each class of emergency defined in Section 4.0, "Emergency Conditions", of this Plan. The logic presented in this section is the basis for detailed Emergency Plan Procedures which define the emergency actions to be taken for each emergency category. Emergency measures begin with the following:

a. The recognition and declaration of an emergency.
b. Notification of the applicable agencies for each emergency classification.
c. Mobilization of the appropriate portions of the emergency response organization.

Emergency measures can be classified as falling into one of the following categories:

a. Assessment Actions
b. Mitigative Actions
c. Protective Actions Figure 6-1 is a summary of typical emergency measures, which may be appropriate for each classification of emergency. Figure 6-2 indicates the groups and organizations that will be notified at each emergency classification.

6.1 Activation of the Emergency Response Organizations If conditions at Davis-Besse meet or exceed a predetermined value or condition specified as an EAL in the emergency classification procedure, the provisions of this plan, and those of the specific procedures shall be implemented.

Specific emergency action levels for each emergency category are defined in Section 4.0. The Shift Manager, acting as Emergency Coordinator, will implement this plan by initially classifying the emergency and ensuring that required notifications are made.

When an emergency classification level is declared or upgraded, initial notifications are promptly made to offsite response organizations. Notification and mobilization of federal, state and local agency response personnel is performed in accordance with their applicable emergency plan and procedures.

  • State and Local Response Agencies State and local agencies receive within fifteen (15) minutes an initial notification message of an event declaration (initial or an escalation). General Emergency classifications also include Protective Action Recommendations (PARs) within that same 15 minutes. Any subsequent changes to PARs continue to be provided to the agencies within 15 minutes.
  • Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC)

The NRC is notified immediately after notification of the appropriate state and local agencies and not later than one (1) hour after the time of initial event declaration, escalation to a higher classification level, emergency termination or entry into recovery.

The NRC is notified using the dedicated Emergency Notification System (ENS) by an individual knowledgeable of the event. If the ENS is inoperative, the required notifications are made via

6-2 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX commercial telephone service. An open, continuous communication line is maintained with the NRC Operations Center upon request. An NRC Event Notification Worksheet may be utilized to assist in communicating event and plant information to the NRC.

For hostile action events, the NRC is notified immediately following or concurrent with state and local notifications.

Other event notifications related to emergency response capabilities not associated with an emergency classification level are performed in accordance with 10 CFR 50.72.

  • Support Organizations

- Medical, rescue, and firefighting support services are notified for assistance as the situation dictates.

- The Institute of Nuclear Power Operations (INPO) is notified at an Alert or higher classification with requests for assistance as necessary.

- The American Nuclear Insurers (ANI) are notified at an Alert or higher classification with requests for assistance as necessary.

- Vendor and contractor support services are notified for assistance as the situation dictates.

6.1.1 Shift Manager/Control Room Operations

a. Should emergency conditions arise, it is expected that the Control Room Operator(s) and/or the Shift Manager will be made aware of the situation by alarms, instrument readings, reports, etc. The Control Room Operator(s) will ensure that the Shift Manager is immediately informed of the situation. The Shift Manager will direct the Control Room staff to inform the Emergency Director and Station Management immediately.
b. The Shift Manager, when informed of an emergency situation, is responsible for assessing the emergency (e.g., plant systems and reactor core status, radiological conditions, etc.) in the following manner:
1. Determine the immediate actions to be taken (e.g., use of Abnormal Procedures and the Emergency Operating Procedure) to ensure the safe and proper operation of the plant. The Shift Engineer, acting as Shift Technical Advisor (STA), will advise and assist the Shift Manager on matters pertaining to the safety and proper operation of the plant, with regards to nuclear safety.
2. If the situation requires implementation of the DBNPS Emergency Plan, the Emergency Coordinator will:

a) Classify the emergency. Classification of emergencies is a non-delegable responsibility of the Emergency Coordinator.

b) Ensure that the appropriate alarm (Fire, Access Evacuation, or Initiate Emergency Procedures) is sounded.

c) Announce the location, type and classification of the emergency on the station public address system (twice).

6-3 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX d) Implement the applicable Emergency Plan Procedure.

e) Notify the following personnel and organizations of the emergency conditions:

1) Nuclear Security Supervision.

5) Ohio State Highway Patrol/EMA (within 15 minutes).
6) Key Emergency Response Personnel.
7) NRC, Emergency Operations Center, Bethesda, Maryland (within one hour).

f) Provide periodic follow-up notifications.

g) Recommend protective actions for public protection, as needed.

Recommending public protective actions is a non-delegable responsibility of the Emergency Coordinator.

3. Due to the numerous responsibilities assigned to the Shift Manager at the onset of an emergency, he will perform the following actions in their listed priority.

a) Ensure the safe operation of the plant.

b) Ensure that immediate notification requirements are met.

c) Dispatch, in the event of radiological emergencies, Radiation Protection (RP) personnel to appropriate locations within the protected area.

d) Perform additional emergency actions as time and conditions permit.

6-4 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX 6.1.2 Emergency Coordinator The designated Emergency Coordinator, upon being informed that an emergency exists and has been declared by the Emergency Coordinator on-shift will:

a. Review information, data, and methods used by the on-shift Emergency Coordinator (Shift Manager) in making the emergency classification. The Emergency Coordinator may NOT delegate the responsibility of classifying emergencies.
b. Determine, to what extent the Emergency Response Organization (ERO) will be activated, using the following guidelines:
1. For an UNUSUAL EVENT, key individuals in the ERO will be alerted or mobilized at the discretion of the Emergency Coordinator.
2. For an ALERT or higher classification, all of the ERO will be activated.
c. Ensure that the Emergency Response Organizations have been activated as indicated above. (If not already performed by Control Room staff.)
d. The Emergency Director in the EOF is responsible for ensuring that the Periodic Update Form, as provided in the Emergency Plan Procedures, is completed and supplied to the state and county Emergency Management Agencies. Protective action recommendations, for the Plume Exposure EPZ, is a non-delegable responsibility of the Emergency Director.
e. The Emergency Director in the EOF ensures that dose rate calculations, in accordance with the Emergency Plan Procedures, are performed periodically. A total population dose estimation may also be performed.

6.1.3 Ottawa and Lucas County Sheriffs' Offices Dispatchers at the Sheriffs' Office for both counties, will notify key county officials and organizations, according to established procedures.

6.1.4 Ottawa County and Lucas County Emergency Management Agency Directors The County EMA Directors will ensure that their county EROs are activated when necessary, and will notify municipalities near DBNPS.

6.1.5 Ohio Emergency Management Agency (OEMA)

The OEMA will ensure that applicable state agencies and organizations are notified and will ensure the State Emergency Operations Center is activated when necessary. Additional state agencies are contacted depending on the severity of the emergency classifications. These notifications are made in accordance with the State of Ohio emergency plan.

6-5 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX The OEMA will have Radiological Monitoring Teams and an accident assessment team respond to an emergency at DBNPS. The accident assessment team will set up an operations center at the local governmental Emergency Operations Center. Using estimates from utility and offsite monitoring teams; and local governmental official's input, the accident assessment team will perform independent accident assessment activities to determine:

a. Protective measures including evacuation.
b. Actions to control exposure to radioactivity.
c. What further sampling of milk, food chain, water and air will be required.

If deemed appropriate, the accident assessment team will request assistance from responding federal agencies in accordance with the State of Ohio emergency plan.

6.1.6 Federal Agencies (Other than NRC)

The NRC, as the cognizant federal agency, will request assistance from other federal agencies when and if deemed appropriate.

Station management may also request assistance and/or information from federal agencies (other than the Department of Energy Radiological Assistance Program) as appropriate to the circumstances.

State organizations and agencies may consult with their federal counterparts if appropriate.

If required, the Department of Energy Radiological Assistance Program teams can be expected to begin arriving at the site in 4 to 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> following notification. The first teams to arrive will have some survey instruments and air samplers. A mobile environmental monitoring lab can be expected to arrive at the site in 6 to 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br />. Appendix B contains a reference to the Radiological Assistance Program with the DOE to provide radiological assistance.

6.1.7 Ohio Department of Health The Ohio Department of Health, Radiological Health Unit, maintains a communications link with the U.S. NRC, Region III Office, from which assistance and support may be requested.

6-6 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX 6.2 Assessment Actions Effective coordination and direction of all elements of the emergency organization requires continuing accident assessment throughout an emergency situation. Each emergency class invokes similar assessment methods; however each classification imposes a different magnitude of assessment effort.

In the following sections, assessment actions taken for each emergency classification are outlined.

6.2.1 Assessment Actions for an UNUSUAL EVENT The declaration of an UNUSUAL EVENT arises when a specific Emergency Action Level for this classification has been met.

Recognition of the need to declare the event will result from alarms, instrument readings, severe weather warnings, a security threat to facility protection, operating experience, or any combination thereof.

Continuing assessment actions to be performed for this category of emergency will be in accordance with the Emergency Plan Procedures and consist of the normal monitoring of Control Room and plant instrumentation and status, until the situation is resolved. Tornado and severe weather assessment actions consist of keeping in contact with the system dispatcher and the appropriate public authorities. If a fire prompted the declaration of an UNUSUAL EVENT, the Fire Brigade Captain will go to the fire location, make continuing assessments, and report to the Shift Manager on whether offsite fire fighting support is required. If a security event is in progress, then the emergency organization will immediately implement procedures for security events or threats.

6.2.2 Assessment Actions for an ALERT Once an incident has been classified as an ALERT, assessment actions will be performed in accordance with the Emergency Plan Procedure for an ALERT. These actions include:

a. Increased surveillance of in-plant instrumentation.
b. If possible, the dispatching of shift personnel to the identified problem area to confirm and visually assess the problem.
c. Activation of the TSC, OSC and EOF as well as staffing of the JIC d The dispatching of Field Monitoring Teams (FMTs) to monitor for possible releases, and to confirm the correct classification.
e. If a radiological incident is occurring, surveillance of the in-plant instrumentation necessary to obtain meteorological and radiological data required for calculating or estimating projected doses. Dose assessment activity will continue until termination of the emergency, so that assessment updates may be provided to all concerned offsite agencies and to the Emergency Coordinator. Emergency Plan Procedures are provided to allow a rapid, consistent projection of dose.
f. If a security event is in progress, then the emergency organization will immediately implement specific procedures for security events or threats.

6-7 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX 6.2.3 Assessment Actions for a SITE AREA EMERGENCY Assessment actions for the SITE AREA EMERGENCY category are similar to the actions for an ALERT. However, due to the increased potential for a possible release, assessment activity of greater scope will occur. The personnel necessary for this assessment effort will be provided by mobilization of the onsite and offsite EROs.

These actions include:

a. An increased amount of plant instrumentation will be monitored. (In particular, indications of core status, e.g., incore thermocouple readings, etc.)
b. Radiation monitoring efforts will be greatly increased. Radiation Monitoring Teams will be available for immediate dispatch. Beta-gamma field measurements may be performed; air sampling, environmental thermoluminescent dosimeter (TLD) change out, and collection of environmental media for assessment of material transport and deposition will be performed as necessary.
c. Dose assessment activities will be performed more frequently, with an increased emphasis on dose projection for use as a factor in determining necessary protective actions. Radiological and meteorological instrumentation readings will be used to project the dose rate at predetermined distances from the station, and to the potential integrated dose.

In reporting the dose projections to the Emergency Director or to offsite agencies, the dose rate, dose, and basis for the time used for the dose estimate will always be provided. Confirmation of dose rates by FMTs will be reflected in reports and/or revised dose estimate information provided to offsite agencies.

All dose projections will be performed in accordance with the Emergency Plan Procedures which incorporate recommendations found in EPA-400-R-92-001 Manual of Protective Action Guides and Protective Actions for Nuclear Incidents. Reports to offsite authorities will include the relationship of dose to these guidelines. Emergency Plan Procedures are provided for recording pertinent information.

d. If a security event is in progress, then the emergency organization will immediately implement specific procedures for security events or threats.

6.2.4 Assessment Actions for a GENERAL EMERGENCY Assessment actions for the GENERAL EMERGENCY category are the same as for the SITE AREA EMERGENCY, with some possible increase in the scope of dose assessment/projection activities. Additionally, since projected doses are likely to be much closer to EPA Protective Action Guidelines (PAGs), greater emphasis will be placed on the assessment of release duration. Judgments and assumptions used for dose assessment will be documented.

6-8 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX 6.3 Mitigative Actions Detailed operating procedures are available for use during emergencies, as well as during normal operations. Specific Emergency Operating Procedures and Abnormal Procedures are provided to assist the operators in placing the plant in a safe condition, and taking necessary supplemental mitigative actions. In addition, operations personnel are trained in the operation of the plant systems and their associated procedures, and are therefore capable of taking appropriate mitigative actions based on their training, knowledge, and experience.

Selected DBNPS Staff personnel, including Operations, Radiation Protection, and Maintenance personnel are trained and assigned to emergency teams. These teams are capable of responding to situations as set forth in the Emergency Plan Procedures, to assess conditions and take appropriate mitigative actions. Maintenance personnel will provide the necessary expertise to effect damage control and repair activities.

Mitigative actions will normally be planned events that are taken to gain control of, or terminate the emergency situation. Planned radioactive releases, or mitigative actions that may result in a radioactive release will be evaluated by the Emergency Coordinator and staff as far in advance of the event as is possible. Such events and data pertaining to the release, will be reported to the appropriate offsite organizations and/or agencies. DBNPS recommendations to authorities regarding the Plume Exposure EPZ are the non-delegable responsibility of the Emergency Coordinator.

6.4 Protective Actions Protective actions are emergency measures taken during or after an emergency situation to minimize or eliminate the hazard to the health and safety of the general public and/or station personnel. Such actions taken onsite are the responsibility of Company management, while those taken offsite fall under the jurisdiction of the State of Ohio and other offsite response agencies. All visitors to the Protected Area will be either escorted by an employee or receive training on actions required by them during an emergency.

6.4.1 Plant Site Protective Actions During an emergency, sheltering or evacuation of personnel may be required to prevent or minimize exposure to radiation and radioactive materials. The following sub-sections present information on policies concerning such situations. Figure 6-3 illustrates the routes to be taken from the site if evacuation becomes necessary.

a. Plant Site (within the protected area):

All personnel within the site protected area at the time of the declaration of an emergency, will be notified of the emergency by audible or visual alarms and verbal announcement over the public address system (Gai-Tronics). Personnel may be instructed to report to the assembly area. Personnel will be trained as to the location of the assembly area and the suggested route. Visitors will assemble with their escorts or be escorted offsite. At the assembly area, members of the emergency organization will conduct personnel assembly and evacuation (if required).

Accountability within the protected area is coordinated by the OSC Coordinator and Security. The goal for completion of personnel accountability is 30 minutes. Results

6-9 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX are forwarded to the Emergency Coordinator. Once established, accountability within the protected area will be maintained throughout the course of the event. Specific guidance for performing accountability can be found in the Emergency Plan Procedures.

Search for and rescue of missing persons will be performed in accordance with Emergency Plan Procedures.

Sheltering at onsite locations will be ordered when the projected dose would be less than or equal to that received during evacuation. For essential personnel who must remain within the protected area following an evacuation (e.g., Operations and Security personnel), particular attention will be paid to their radiation dose for ALARA purposes.

If a localized emergency exists, evacuation of the affected facility or area can be performed. Access to this area should then be restricted. The Protected Area will be evacuated if a SITE AREA EMERGENCY has been declared or if, at the discretion of the Emergency Coordinator/Shift Manager, a personnel hazard exists. Nonessential personnel shall be evacuated from the site if a GENERAL EMERGENCY has been declared, or if, at the discretion of the Emergency Coordinator/Shift Manager, site evacuation is warranted for personnel safety reasons. Access control will be established by Security to prohibit the entry of unauthorized personnel to the protected area.

Personal vehicles will be used for site evacuation. Nonessential personnel may be evacuated to the designated offsite assembly area, which will be located at an offsite county reception center. Personnel and vehicles will be monitored for contamination at the offsite reception center, if necessary, prior to release.

b. Plant Site (Outside the Protected Area):

All personnel onsite, but outside the protected area will be notified, at the declaration of an emergency, of conditions that may affect them. Personnel outside of the range of the Gai-Tronics system will be notified via bullhorn, ERO mobile device, or site public address system. Personnel may be instructed to report to the nearest assembly area. Key personnel have been delegated responsibility for receiving emergency information and disseminating such information to personnel in these areas.

c. Hostile-Action Based Protective Actions Hostile-Action Based, or security related, emergencies offer different challenges to the site organization. Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station has incorporated a range of protective actions for onsite personnel during a hostile action event, consistent with the possible threat (including land/water based, as well as airborne attacks). Generally, these protective actions may include considerations for:
  • Site evacuation via normal exits
  • Site evacuation via alternate means
  • Dispersal of plant operators and essential ERO members
  • Take Cover (sheltering in place for personnel onsite)

6-10 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX Arrangements for accounting for personnel after a hostile action have been made. When the site is secure, all personnel who were in the protected area when the hostile action occurred will be accounted for as promptly as possible while not interfering with critical safe reactor shutdown activities or known medical emergencies. The details of these protective actions are described in site implementing procedures.

6.4.2 Offsite Protective Actions:

Responsibility for implementing actions to protect personnel in offsite areas rests with State and local officials, and is described in detail in the The Ohio Radiological Emergency Preparedness Plan and the Ohio Emergency Operations Plan (under a separate cover), and is implemented in conjunction with The Ottawa County Radiological Emergency Response Plan, and The Lucas County Radiological Emergency Response Plan (under separate covers).

At a General Emergency classification Davis-Besse, through the Emergency Director, shall make offsite protective action recommendations to state and local authorities, based on emergency conditions. The FENOC PAR determination process has been developed in accordance with NUREG-0654 Supplement 3 revision 1, and its PAR logic diagram. The process includes consideration of precautionary protective actions, wind persistence, rapidly progressing release scenarios, hostile-action based events, and termination of protective actions. It also includes considerations that embody Offsite Response Organizations input at the various decision points as identified in the guidance.

Offsite protective action recommendations will be made for affected predetermined subareas.

(Refer to the Ohio Radiological Emergency Preparedness Plan and the Ohio Emergency Operations Plan for description of the Davis-Besse 10-mile emergency planning zone subareas.) The preferred offsite protective action recommendation (PAR) is evacuation. A sheltering PAR will be considered when known roadway impediments impact the ability to evacuate a large portion of the Emergency Planning Zone, during a controlled short duration release, and during a Hostile-Action based event. Dose to the public from any actual or potential radiological release are evaluated prior to the determination of these sheltering recommendations.

The means to warn or advise persons involved in taking protective actions is the responsibility of the Ottawa County EMA Director, Lucas County EMA Director, and the Ottawa and Lucas County emergency organizations. These counties are responsible for the preparation and dissemination of public information material related to implementation of protective actions for the general public. The Ottawa County Sheriff's Office will authorize the broadcast of appropriate Emergency Alert System messages to the public, when necessary. The general content of these messages is contained in the Ottawa County Plan, the Lucas County Plan, and the State of Ohio Plan.

6-11 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX 6.4.3 Use of Onsite Protective Equipment and Supplies Table 6-1 summarizes typical protective action recommendations for the general public and emergency workers. Tables 6-2, 6-3, 6-4, and 6-5 provide guidelines for the expected local protection against direction and inhalation exposure afforded by structures. The following onsite locations have been designated for assembly and dispatch of emergency teams:

a. Operations Support Center
b. Admin Building The exact location, type, and quantity of emergency equipment and supplies is specified in the Emergency Plan Procedures.

6.4.4 Contamination Control Measures

a. Station Area:

Access to the owner-controlled area will be limited. Contamination control within the station shall be exercised in accordance with approved Radiation Protection procedures.

b. Offsite Areas:

It is the responsibility of the State Department of Agriculture, in conjunction with the Department of Health and the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency, to issue guidance and coordinate actions to control the use and transport of contaminated agricultural products.

6.4.5 Ingestion Pathway Control Measures The Ingestion Pathway EPZ (50-mile radius) has been established to address the additional concern for ingestion of contamination. There are two levels at which protective actions may be recommended by the State (i.e., preventive and emergency levels) for food and water contamination. Suggested action levels for ground, food, and water contamination are given in Table 6-6.

6.5 Aid to Affected Personnel 6.5.1 Emergency Personnel Exposure Under emergency conditions, it may not be possible to perform mitigative/protective actions, while maintaining exposure (i.e., radiation doses) below limits specified in 10CFR20. Saving a life, measures to circumvent substantial doses to population groups, or preservation of safety related equipment, may be sufficient cause for above normal doses.

The following are the exposure limits based on EPA-400-R-92-001 guidance for these emergency activities:

6-12 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX

a. Mitigative/protective actions:

Limit doses to the following when protecting valuable property and lower doses are not practicable:

1. 10,000 mrem Total Effective Dose Equivalent (TEDE)
2. 30,000 mrem Lens Dose Equivalent (LDE)
3. 100,000 mrem:
  • Total Organ Dose Equivalent (TODE)
  • Shallow Dose Equivalent (SDE) to the skin of the whole body or to any extremity
b. Lifesaving actions:

Limit doses to the following when protecting large populations or performing life saving activities and lower doses are not practicable:

1. 25,000 mrem TEDE
2. 75,000 mrem LDE
3. 250,000 mrem
  • Total Organ Dose Equivalent (TODE)
  • Shallow Dose Equivalent (SDE) to the skin of the whole body or to any extremity The Emergency Coordinator has the authority to permit the above exposures in excess of the 10 CFR 20 occupational dose limits.

Personnel involved in any of the above actions must be volunteers, and cognizant of the effects of such doses.

Emergency worker dose records shall be maintained in accordance with Davis-Besse RP Procedures.

Although doses in excess of the normal legal limits may be authorized, the Emergency Coordinator will ensure that all doses are kept ALARA.

6.5.2 Thyroid Blocking A ready supply of suitable thyroid blocking agent is maintained and available for use by emergency workers. Guidance for administration of the blocking agent will be provided by medical advisors, and is specified in emergency plan procedures.

The Emergency Coordinator shall authorize the use of the thyroid blocking agent, i.e.,

potassium iodide (KI).

The State of Ohio has elected to distribute and stockpile potassium iodide (KI) for the general public. At a General Emergency the Ohio Department of Health in coordination with the local Health Departments may elect to recommend that the general public take potassium iodide.

6-13 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX 6.5.3 Decontamination and First Aid Decontamination materials, including specialized equipment and supplies are available in station decontamination areas. Portable instruments for personnel monitoring and portal monitors are available at the RCA entrance. Decontamination showers and sinks, both of which drain to the radwaste system, are also located in the Decontamination Area.

Action levels for determining the need for decontamination of personnel and equipment are specified in the Davis-Besse RP Procedures.

Personnel found to be contaminated will be decontaminated by Radiation Protection personnel (or other qualified personnel, as specified in RP Procedures). It is preferred that personnel decontamination be performed by trained RP personnel.

Measures shall be taken to prevent the spread of contamination. Such measures may include isolating the affected areas, placing contaminated personnel in "clean" clothing before moving them, and decontaminating affected personnel, their clothing, and equipment prior to release.

Emergency first aid and medical treatment will be given to injured personnel who are contaminated. Station personnel trained in first aid are available onsite, on a 24-hour basis, and will assist injured personnel. Provisions have been made to ensure contaminated and injured personnel receive specialized medical treatment, if necessary. H. B. Magruder Hospital, ProMedica Memorial Hospital, and Mercy St. Charles Hospital have agreed to accept contaminated patients for emergency medical and surgical treatment. If affected personnel must be transported, measures will be taken to limit the spread of contamination.

Any contaminated patient moved to an offsite facility will be accompanied by a member of the RP staff. If during the same incident, more than one victim is involved, the first victim will be accompanied by a member of the RP staff who will remain at the receiving facility during transport of the remaining patients. If more than one offsite facility is involved, then a member of the RP staff shall be present at each offsite facility. If necessary, a physician may be requested to provide onsite medical assistance.

6-14 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX 6.5.4 Medical Transportation Ambulance service for Davis-Besse is provided for by a letter of agreement with Carroll Township Emergency Medical Service.

6.5.5 Medical Treatment Arrangements for hospital and medical services for injured and/or contaminated/over-exposed personnel are provided for by letters of agreement with the. Magruder Hospital; ProMedica Memorial Hospital; Mercy St. Charles Hospital.

The services of the radiological emergency assistance provider assures personnel providing services are prepared and qualified to handle radiological emergencies.

6-15 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX TABLE 6-1 PAGs for the Early Phase of a Nuclear Incident PAG Protective Action (Projected Dose) Comments Evacuation (or sheltering1) 1-5 rem2 Evacuation (or for some situations, sheltering1) should normally be initiated at 1 rem.

6-28 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX Figure 6-3 OFFSITE EMERGENCY EVACUATION ROUTES

7-1 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX 7.0 EMERGENCY FACILITIES AND EQUIPMENT This section describes the equipment and facilities used at DBNPS to:

  • Assess the extent of accident hazards.
  • Mitigate the consequences of an accident.
  • Provide protection to station personnel.
  • Support accident mitigation operations.
  • Provide immediate care for injured personnel.

A diagram identifying the emergency facilities and their general location relative to each other, is included as Figure 7-1, "Emergency Facilities by General Location". Many of the DBNPS facilities and much of the equipment is normally used for routine plant operations. Other items are reserved for use only on an "as needed" basis.

7.1 DBNPS In-Plant Emergency Facilities 7.1.1 Control Room

a. The Control Room is the location from which the plant is operated. It contains the instrumentation, controls, and displays for:
1. Nuclear systems
2. Reactor coolant systems
3. Steam systems
4. Electrical systems
5. Safety systems (including engineered safety features)
6. Accident monitoring systems.

The operating shift is staffed in accordance with TS 5.2.2 and TRM 10.2.1 requirements. Control manipulations and the safe operation of the plant are directed by the Senior Reactor Operator licensed Shift Manager and Unit Supervisor, and are performed by licensed Reactor Operators.

b. During abnormal operating conditions, the complexity of Station responsibilities increases significantly and the Control Room transforms into an emergency response center. These responsibilities include the following:
1. Diagnosing the abnormal conditions.
2. Performing mitigative actions.
3. Mitigation of abnormal conditions.
4. Management of plant operations.
5. Management of emergency response.
6. Informing Federal, State, and local officials.
7. Recommendations for public protective measures to State and local officials.
8. Restoring the plant to a safe condition.
9. Recovering from the abnormal conditions.

7-2 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX Initially, Control Room personnel will assume all of these responsibilities.

However, by activating other emergency response facilities, much of this responsibility is turned over to other personnel.

7.1.2 Operations Support Center (OSC)

The OSC is located on the third floor of the Containment Access Facility. The OSC is the assembly and dispatch point for damage control and repair teams.

Activation of the OSC is required within 60 minutes of the declaration of an Alert or higher classification.

7.2 Davis-Besse Administration Building (DBAB) Facilities The DBAB contains the Emergency Response Facilities (ERFs) necessary to assist Control Room personnel in accident assessment and abnormal operating conditions. The ERF area of the DBAB has been designed to provide radiological habitability for approximately 30 days during a design basis accident, as described in Chapter 15 of the Davis-Besse Updated Safety Analysis Report.

Within this protected environment, the ERFs function to:

1. Help the Control Room staff determine the plant safety status.
2. Relieve the Control Room staff of peripheral duties and communications not directly related to reactor system manipulations.
3. Prevent congestion in the Control Room.
4. Provide assistance to the operators from technical personnel who have comprehensive plant data at their disposal.
5. Provide a coordinated emergency response by both technical and management personnel.
6. Provide reliable communications between onsite and offsite emergency response personnel.
7. Provide relevant plant data to the NRC for its analysis of abnormal plant operating conditions.

The DBAB Annex and the second floor of the DBAB provide general administrative office space for the Station. The ERFs are on the first floor and are either in the restricted (north end) or unrestricted areas (south end).

The restricted area consists of two mechanical equipment rooms, a computer equipment room, telephone equipment room, Technical Support Center (TSC), TSC Library, badging area, kitchen, and two areas designated as private office space.

7-3 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX The unrestricted area consists of the Energy Education Center (EEC) and several work/conference rooms. The DBAB is approximately 2100 feet from the Control Room. They are linked by a paved road which is completely contained within the site security boundary.

The water supply to the DBAB can store up to 4,000 gallons within the buildings, if necessary.

Electrical power for the DBAB is supplied by the grid through a power structure approximately 200 feet east of the building. Backup power is provided by a diesel generator and vital loads are protected by an uninterruptible power supply.

The electrical and mechanical systems within the DBAB are computer controlled and activated using the Central Control and Monitoring System (CCMS). This system maintains building temperature and ventilation, and provides security alarms, trouble alarms, and fire protection, as conditions may warrant. For fires, an alarm on the CCMS can automatically activate the dry main sprinkler system in the records management vault; or a wet main sprinkler system in any other area.

To minimize radiation exposure, two emergency ventilation air handling units are provided; one for the restricted area (north end) and one for the remaining areas (south end). By design, either unit can supply the restricted area, should the primary unit fail. Upon local activation, the units will switch to the recirculation mode employing high efficiency filters to minimize the introduction of airborne radiation sources into the emergency facilities.

7.2.1 Technical Support Center (TSC)

The TSC serves as the workplace for key ERO personnel who, during emergencies, assist the Control Room staff, perform accident assessment, and determine appropriate protective actions. The TSC provides for direct voice and data communication with the Control Room. The TSC also contains the Safety Parameters Display System (SPDS).

The SPDS computer was designed to provide sufficient Station information and data communication for operations personnel to evaluate and diagnose station conditions and activities so as to conduct emergency operations in an orderly manner. The SPDS provides data communication to the EOF, TSC, and Control Room. Because the SPDS aids in the detection and monitoring of plant transients and accidents, the SPDS is capable of functioning during and following most events expected to occur during the life of the station.

The TSC is in the restricted side of the DBAB.

The TSC contains workspace for up to 25 people, within a main work area and three conference areas.

Activation of the TSC is required within 60 minutes of the declaration of an Alert or higher classification.

7.2.2. Private Office Areas Two areas are available as private office space for the NRC Site Director and other key emergency response officials. These office areas are in the restricted area of the DBAB.

7.2.3 Equipment Rooms

7-4 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX The telephone equipment room contains communications equipment necessary to connect the site telephone system into company and external phone systems.

Two mechanical equipment rooms contain redundant systems for electrical distribution, heating and ventilation, and compressed air. Both mechanical equipment rooms are in the restricted side of the DBAB.

7-5 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX 7.3 Near Site Emergency Response Facility The near site emergency response facilities are located near Lindsey, Ohio at the corner of SR 20 and SR 590. The facility houses the Emergency Operations Facility, the Alternate TSC and a muster area for station personnel. The facility has access to station radio and public Address systems. The facility is equipped with an uninterruptable power system and an emergency diesel generator. The Near Site Emergency Response Facilities include the following:

7.3.1 Emergency Operations Facility (EOF)

The EOF provides a central location for the development of protective action recommendations by DBNPS and for representatives from offsite organizations. The EOF staff evaluates the magnitude and effects of actual or potential radioactive releases and provides management assistance in the decision-making process to protect the public health and safety. Recommendations are based on station conditions with radiological and meteorological data obtained, through the Safety Parameters Display System (SPDS) and the Meteorological data acquisition computer. The EOF utilizes various communication systems to establish and maintain communications with State, Federal, and local officials, and mobile Field Monitoring Teams (FMTs).

The EOF provides space for at least 22 people.

Activation of the EOF is required within 60 minutes of the declaration of an Alert or higher classification.

DBNPS maintains an Emergency Plan Telephone Directory, which is kept current by the Manager, Regulatory Compliance and Emergency

7-9 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX Response. This directory is reviewed quarterly and includes ERO personnel, the radiological emergency assistance provider, hospitals, local, state, and federal agencies, and others with special qualifications for emergency support.

7.7 Alarms There are three station alarms as follows:

7.7.1 FIRE - Rise and Fall Siren 7.7.2 ACCESS EVACUATION - Pulsed Tone Burst 7.7.3 INITIATE EMERGENCY PROCEDURES - Warbled Tone The alarms are activated from the Control Room. The FIRE, INITIATE EMERGENCY PROCEDURES, and ACCESS EVACUATION alarms sound in all plant areas (i.e., station office building, personnel shop facility, radiologically controlled area, fuel handling area, outdoor areas, primary access facility, etc.)

7-10 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX 7.8 Prompt Notification System Early warning of, and instructions to the population-at-risk are done under the direction of the Ohio Emergency Management Agency (OEMA) in conjunction with local officials, the Ottawa County Emergency Management Agency, and the Lucas County Emergency Management Agency. Prompt notification by the DBNPS is the vital first link in this process.

Once local and state authorities have been notified, several methods to warn the population-at-risk can be utilized. The method used and the time required will depend upon the severity of the situation. The methods available are:

7.8.1 Prompt Notification System (PNS) - Fifty-four high powered rotating sirens have been installed to provide an acoustic alerting signal for the residents and transients within the 10-mile radius of the Davis-Besse Station. Each siren is equipped with an independent battery backup which will allow operation during the loss of normal AC electrical power. The sirens have been located to meet the design objectives of Appendix 3 in NUREG-0654/

FEMA-REP-1, REV. 1. Local authorities activate the warning sirens from the Ottawa County Sheriff's Office. The sounding of the Prompt Notification System alerts the public to tune to local radio stations for EAS messages.

The PNS sirens are tested from the Ottawa County Sheriffs Dispatch Center as follows:

  • A three-minute audible test is performed at least once per year
  • A one-minute audible test is performed at least monthly
  • A three-minute, one-minute or a silent test is performed weekly Back-up Alert and Notification Methods - Backup alert and notification for the Davis-Besse 10-mile EPZ is achieved through pre-planned route alerting. This method has been approved by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). County emergency management agencies will be prepared to make special provisions such as back up route alerting for those areas with sirens out of service, in the event of an emergency. The route alerting system utilizes planned routes for each siren that is unable to be activated.

7.8.2 Emergency Alert System (EAS) - State and local authorities can broadcast information, instructions, and necessary bulletins to the general public over the EAS (e.g., from the local Sheriff's offices or their Emergency Operations Centers).

7.8.3 NOAA National Weather Service alert monitors can be pulsed, and automatically turned on to disseminate emergency information.

7.8.4 Central Dispatching - The Ottawa and Lucas County Sheriff's Offices have central dispatches, manned 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> a day, to communicate with the police, fire, medical responders, and the OEMA.

7.8.5 Commercial Paging System - A paging system, backed up by the local telephone service, is used to permit immediate contact of local officials.

7.8.6 Emergency Vehicles - Vehicles with loudspeakers can be dispatched to various remote locations to broadcast warning messages.

7-11 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX 7.8.7 House-To-House Notification - Local fire and police departments can perform house-to-house notification of residents in the affected areas around the plant.

Notification times have been included in the Evacuation Time Estimate. Information and appropriate advisories developed for the public, including transient areas, concerning the actions to be taken during an emergency, are available. Pertinent information can also be found in the local telephone directories.

Additional information regarding warning capability and information to transient areas around the plant can be found in The Ottawa County Plan for Response to Radiation Emergencies at Licensed Nuclear Facilities,Section II Part D; The Lucas County Radiological Emergency Response Plan,Section II Part E; and The Ohio Radiological Emergency Preparedness Plan and the Ohio Emergency Operations Plan.

7.9 Assessment Facilities The systems and equipment described in the following sections ensure that the capability and resources are available to provide valid and continuing assessment throughout the course of an incident.

7.9.1 Radiation Monitoring System The onsite Radiation Monitoring System contributes to personnel radiological protection within the plant, in accordance with regulatory guidelines. The Radiation Monitoring System detects, alarms, and initiates emergency actions when radiation levels or radionuclide concentrations exceed predetermined levels. To perform these functions, area, liquid, and atmospheric monitoring subsystems are employed.

The data from these subsystems are displayed by readouts in the Control Room.

Additionally, certain monitors sound an alarm and are displayed on the Fire Detection System/Radiation Monitoring System (FDS/RMS) Console in the Control Room. A summary description of individual radiation monitor channels, described below, is provided in the Updated Safety Analysis Report (USAR) Table 11.4-1, Liquid Gas, and Airborne Radiation Monitors, and Table 12.1-3, Area Radiation Monitors.

In general the radiation monitoring equipment is designed in accordance with the following specifications:

a. Each monitoring station has adjustable, high level, low level, and power supply failure alarms.
b. Solid-state circuitry is used except for primary detectors.
c. The safety-related radiation monitors are powered from the essential instrument distribution panels. The non-essential radiation monitors are powered from the uninterruptible instrument distribution panels.
d. With the exception of the Kaman monitors, each radiation monitor is capable of being checked periodically with solenoid actuated check sources.
e. A pulse generator or current source is used for electrically checking each monitor or subsystem. Electrical input tests measure the functional operation of the monitoring system from the detector output through the readout devices.
f. The modules are designed so that an alarm and/or indication is initiated when failure occurs anywhere in the channel.

7-12 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX 7.9.2 Area Radiation Monitoring The Area Radiation Monitoring subsystem is comprised of area monitors located throughout the plant. Under normal operating conditions, the area monitors warn personnel of increasing radiation level, which may result in a radiation health hazard. There are a total of 40 area monitors consisting of two types, Geiger-Mueller detectors and Ionization Chamber detectors. The detectors are housed in weather-proof containers and equipped with a remote controlled check source. The local alarm and readout for each of these channels is separate from the detector and is also housed in a weatherproof container.

These detectors can also monitor the high level of radiation that would be characteristic of the post-accident atmosphere in the containment. The detectors are desensitized by a lead shield.

The Control Room readout modules are located in the radiation monitoring panel in the Control Room.

7.9.3 Atmospheric Radiation Monitoring Atmospheric Radiation Monitoring measures radioactive material contained in the air.

The atmospheric radiation monitoring subsystem is comprised of monitors of the fixed and movable type. Each fixed atmospheric monitor is comprised of a particulate measuring channel, iodine measuring channel, and a gaseous measuring channel. The air sample that passes through each of these channels is obtained by means of a sampler and a pump assembly. Samples are obtained by means of a sampling head placed in a ventilation duct.

Portable atmospheric monitors are available for use during maintenance operations. These monitors are capable of monitoring particulate, iodines, and noble gases. The installed and portable atmospheric monitors provide both an audible alarm and visual indications when pre-determined setpoints are exceded for airborne radioactivity.

7.9.4 Process Radiation Monitoring Process radiation monitoring measures radiation given off radioactive material contained in process fluids within systems.

The process radiation monitoring subsystem consists of monitors each of which consists of a sampler, scintillation detector, and Control Room ratemeter module. The monitors readout in the Control Room on the individual ratemeter and two common recorders.

7-13 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX 7.9.5 Radiation Monitoring Instruments and Equipment Radiation Monitoring Instruments and Equipment includes those instruments and equipment which may be taken into the field (both on and offsite) to determine the presence of gaseous, particulate or airborne radioactive material. This includes general survey instruments. Portable radiation survey instruments and personnel dosimetry and equipment are shown in Table 7-1.

7.9.6 Fire Protection and Detection Devices Fire protection at Davis-Besse is provided by (1) the Fire Protection Water System, and (2) the Fire Detection System.

a. Fire Protection Water System The Fire Protection Water System is a full-loop, piped system that supplies water for (1) sprinklers, (2) deluge water spray, (3) fire hydrants, and (4) hose connections that are located such that they provide fire protection for all major areas of the plant and site.

A Fire Water Storage Tank provides a source of water via the Electric Driven Fire Pump. A jockey pump maintains system piping full and pressurized.

The Diesel Driven Fire Pump takes suction from the intake forebay. In the event that a fire occurs, and either an automatic or manual system is initiated, the Fire Protection Water System piping pressure will decrease and cause the electric (120 psig) and the diesel (100 psig) fire pumps to start at their respective pressure setpoint, to meet system flow requirements.

Sprinkler systems provide a coverage of 0.3 gpm per square foot of floor area, for any (including the most remote) 3,000 square foot area; and 0.2 gpm per square foot, for any 10,000 square foot of floor area under the turbine operating and intermediate floors, and in all areas to which oil may spread in the event of an oil line break. This protection is also provided below major steel grating floor whether or not sprinklers are installed above.

Fire hydrants are connected to the main fire yard loop around the periphery of the station. A distribution header loop is provided within the turbine building, with four branch feeders from the underground fire yard loop. Each section of the header loop and each branch line are provided with isolation valves. The headers supply readily accessible, mounted, fire hose stations located throughout the turbine and auxiliary buildings.

Hose cabinets are provided throughout the auxiliary building. Each hose cabinet contains 50-75 feet of 11/2 inch hose, with an adjustable fog nozzle, and a separate 21/2-inch hose connection for local fire department use. Fire extinguishers are provided throughout the building.

Hose reel units are provided in the turbine building. Each reel is provided with 50-75 feet of 11/2 inch fire hose, and an adjustable fog and stream hose nozzle.

7-14 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX Adjacent to each hose reel is a separate 21/2-inch hose connection for local fire department use. Portable fire extinguishers are located throughout the building.

Fire suppression to the Administration Building, Warehouse, Training Center, Primary Access Facility, and Service Building #3 consists of sprinkler systems and hose stations.

b. Fire Detection System The fire detection system is comprised of detectors located throughout Davis-Besse, especially in those areas not protected by sprinkler systems.
1. Temperature Rise Detectors Temperature rise detectors monitor the protected area and will send a signal to a local control cabinet and Control Room alarm if the rise in temperature reaches a setpoint.
2. Smoke and Vapor Detectors Ionization type smoke detectors monitor the area, and when activated, send a signal to a local control cabinet and Control Room alarm.

The Fire Detection Panels receive their inputs from the various detectors, and in turn send an alarm to the Control Room.

An alarm initiates when any of the following conditions occur within the Fire Detection System:

a) Fire b) Trouble c) Ground Fault If any of the above occur, a line printer, fed by the Fire Detection System/Radiation Monitoring System (FDS/RMS), will print out the alarm in the Control Room.

Upon receipt of an alarm, the Control Room operator acknowledges the alarm on the FDS/RMS console printer, and identifies the specific cause of the alarm.

7.9.7 Seismic Monitoring System The Seismic Monitoring System records (on local recorders for each accelerometer and in a personal computer within the central system in the control room) vibrations in the earth due to a local earthquake. In addition, the system will record the vibrations on man-made structures caused by the earthquake. The data acquired will contribute to the assessment of damage and the determination of cause of damage. The data is useful in confirming the design and analysis of the structure. To aid decision making, alarm lights are provided at the system rack, in the cabinet area of the Control Room. These lights show the

7-15 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX exceedance of Operating Basis Earthquake (OBE) or Safe Shutdown Earthquake (SSE) at the containment foundation.

The sensors and seismic triggers are installed remotely from the system rack, are networked together, and are connected by cables to the rack. (See the Technical Requirements Manual (TRM) for location of the sensors and triggers.)

The four low-level triaxial seismic triggers are networked together, so that any one accelerometer can also trigger the other devices, to turn on the system automatically during the buildup of the event vibrations. The one required seismic trigger (free-field) is set at approximately 0.010g (g=acceleration due to gravity). The recording system includes pre-event (i.e., pre-trigger) data in the event record. Recording continues without interruption for approximately 30 seconds after the last low-level trigger signal. Upon completion of the seismic event recording, data is retrievable from each accelerometer (through an analog-to-digital recorder and data storage memory) and a personal computer in the Control Room, which will provide time history response data and can be readily reviewed without need for conversion to hardcopy. A video display will provide quick, accurate determinations to be made based on the seismic event, and to determine if a plant shutdown is required.

In keeping with the purposes of the system, loss of site power will not prevent system operation. Backup power is supplied from the Station Battery, and also an internal battery in the network control center and each recorder.

In addition to the components associated with the system rack, there are three peak recording accelerometers as listed in the TRM, Table 8.3.3-1, which require no electrical power to operate. After a seismic event operators can remove the three tape strips from each recorder, develop the strips, and determine the peak values recorded at the associated location.

7.9.8 Onsite Meteorological Measurement Programs Data collection from the current onsite meteorological monitoring system began at DBNPS on August 4, 1974. The location of both meteorological towers is such that the meteorological data from the towers are representative of the DBNPS site. The system includes two levels of instrumentation on a 340-foot freestanding tower and one level of instrumentation on a 35-foot satellite tower. Both towers are located in the southwest corner of the site approximately 2800 feet from DBNPS.

Wind direction and speed are measured at the 250 and 340-foot levels on the freestanding tower and at 35 feet on the satellite tower. Differential temperature measurements (T) are made between 35 and 250 feet and between 35 and 340 feet on the free standing tower.

The Control Room, Emergency Operations Facility (EOF), and Technical Support Center (TSC) can obtain meteorological data through the data acquisition computer in the TSC.

The Control Room can display meteorological data with the PI Process Book. The EOF and TSC can display meteorological data on the Plant Computer System. All meteorological data are recorded on strip chart. Dual-channel strip chart recorders are used for recording wind speed and direction; one recorder for each tower level. Ambient temperature, dewpoint, delta T, and precipitation are recorded on one multipoint strip chart recorder; each parameter is recorded on an individual channel. The data recording and

7-16 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX signal conditioning equipment is housed in an environmentally controlled out structure located near the base of the tower.

The meteorological instruments at DBNPS are calibrated at least semiannually. The instrumentation and records are checked on a nominal daily basis for proper functioning of equipment. All maintenance and calibrations are performed in accordance with written procedures.

Backup meteorological data (i.e., wind speed and direction) are available from the National Weather Service. Arrangements have also been made to obtain complete backup meteorological information from the Enrico Fermi Nuclear Power Station at Newport, Michigan. Backup hydrological data can be obtained from the Marblehead Coast Guard Station, and the Port Clinton Sewage treatment plant (lake level and precipitation respectively).

7.9.9 Control Room Instrumentation Control Room Instrumentation measures appropriate parameters that are indicative of the status of various plant systems and the reactor itself.

The Post Accident Monitoring System (PAMS) is also available to follow the course of an accident with wide range instrumentation. This system will provide to the plant operators, the essential safety status information necessary to allow them to return the plant to a maintained, safe, shutdown condition.

USAR Table 7.5-1 provides a listing and a description of Control Room instrumentation, including PAMS that would be used in performing continued assessment of plant conditions.

7.9.10 Facilities and Equipment for Offsite Monitoring A complete Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program (REMP) for effluent control has been established at the DBNPS. The program has been in effect since August 1972.

The REMP employs fixed radiation/radionuclide detection and measurement instruments at various locations within a 25 mile radius from DBNPS. Samples of vegetation, water, soil, milk, and produce are routinely collected and analyzed. The REMP is conducted under the guidance contained in the Davis-Besse Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM).

During emergencies at DBNPS, baseline data from the REMP will be used in assessing the radiological effects of any possible releases on the environment.

DBNPS maintains vehicles, equipped to perform field monitoring during emergencies.

Field Monitoring Teams (FMTs), dispatched at an ALERT or higher, will conduct emergency field monitoring of radiation and airborne activity levels throughout the EPZ, under direction from the Dose Assessment Center, in the EOF. Monitoring results will be used to verify plume boundaries and to adjust dose projections for more correct protective action recommendations.

7.10 Protective Facilities and Equipment

7-17 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX Personnel protective action at DBNPS is a function of the nature of the hazards, for instance, preparing for a hurricane is somewhat different from preparing for radiological hazards.

Preplanned responses to the basic hazards, such as high winds, flooding, earthquakes, and radiation exposures are an integral part of the DBNPS Emergency Plan and are therefore discussed separately. A fundamental concept in personnel protection is the immediate release and removal of all individuals not essential to the operation, safety, security, and damage control of the plant.

Obviously some hazards can occur before any protective action can be taken. When the situation permits, the appropriate alarms are sounded and all personnel on site either assume their assigned emergency responsibilities, or are assembled at the designated points for accountability prior to release from the site or reassignment to an emergency team.

Protected facilities include the DBNPS Control Room and the emergency facilities on the first floor of the Administration Building. These areas are located in seismically rated structures and have adequate shielding to permit safe occupation for extended periods of time without exceeding a dose limit. The ventilation systems in these facilities have redundant fans and chillers and are provided with appropriate alarms and interlocks. Provisions have also been made for the air to be recirculated through high efficiency particulate (HEPA), and activated charcoal filters when necessary.

Self contained breathing apparatus (SCBAs) are located in the Control Room to permit continued occupancy if ventilation systems fail. Air-purifying respirators are available in the Radiologically Controlled Area and would be provided to Control Room personnel as needed. Additional SCBAs, protective clothing, and respirators are available at, or near, each onsite ERF, and are listed in applicable Radiation Protection Procedures and Emergency Plan Procedures.

Parts for the respirators and SCBAs, as well as additional protective clothing are available through the FENOC Supply Chain.

7.11 First Aid and Medical Facilities First aid facilities at DBNPS are designed to support immediate care ranging from simple first aid to procedures requiring a physician. The most readily available first aid is provided by the small kits placed throughout the plant. These kits contain items typically needed to care for minor injuries.

More complete medical cabinets are located throughout the site and contain medical supplies needed to care for more serious injuries.

7.12 Damage Control Equipment The DBNPS is extensively equipped to conduct preventive and mitigative maintenance and repairs on mechanical, structural, electrical and instrumentation and control equipment found in the station.

Each maintenance crew is qualified and, when required, certified to perform the tasks associated with their craft in the working environment of a nuclear plant.

In addition to the equipment and materials required for normal maintenance, other items are available to handle extraordinary maintenance jobs that might arise in damage control. Refer to the appropriate system procedure or Emergency Plan Procedure for equipment lists.

(Included in this training will be the understanding that when local fire support is required within the protected area, local fire department personnel will function in conjunction with, and under the direction of, the DBNPS Fire Brigade.)
e. A review of the DBNPS EALs will be performed annually by the Emergency Response Section with state and local governmental agencies. This EAL review is directed toward offsite senior management personnel and may be performed through a mailing. This mailing includes an offer to receive training on the DBNPS EALs upon request.
f. A coordinated program shall be conducted annually to acquaint the news media with the Emergency Plan, information concerning radiation, and points of contact for release of public information in an emergency. Normally, this information will be presented through a mailing, which may include an invitation for a site/plant tour.

8-3 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX 8.1.2 Drills and Exercises

a. Periodic drills and exercises will be conducted in order to test the overall state of emergency preparedness. The prime objective of this form of training is to determine the level of emergency preparedness of all participating personnel, organizations, and agencies. More specifically, each drill or exercise will be conducted to meet the following objectives:
1. Ensure that the participants are familiar with their duties and responsibilities.
2. Verify the adequacy of the DBNPS Emergency Plan and Emergency Plan Procedures.
3. Test communications networks and systems.
4. Check the availability of emergency supplies and equipment.
5. Verify the operability of emergency equipment.

The Manager, Regulatory Compliance and Emergency Response is responsible for the planning, scheduling, and coordination of all emergency preparedness related drills and exercises.

All drills and exercises are subject to the approval of the General Plant Manager.

In addition, the Site Vice President, DB Nuclear will approve the Biennial Exercise.

Each drill requirement will be performed within the specified time interval, with a maximum allowable extension not to exceed 25% of the drill interval. An exercise will be conducted once every other calendar year to demonstrate the overall effectiveness of the Davis-Besse Emergency Response Program. The scope and content of the biennial exercise will be consistent with established departmental procedures and regulatory requirements.

Instructions and coaching may be given to participants during a drill. Such actions are prohibited during a biennial exercise. Therefore, in order to take credit for specific drill objectives during an exercise, no instructions or coaching may occur.

8-4 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX

b. When a major drill or exercise is to be conducted, the Manager, Regulatory Compliance and Emergency Response will:
1. Assign personnel to prepare a scenario.
2. Coordinate efforts with other participating emergency personnel, organizations, and agencies.
3. Obtain the approval of the General Plant Manager (DB), and the Site Vice President-DB Nuclear (for the Biennial Exercise).
4. Schedule a date for drill execution and assign controllers.
5. Critique the results of the drill.
6. Assign personnel to correct any deficiencies.
7. Ensure that deficiencies are corrected.
8. Prepare and submit documentation to the Nuclear Records Management for record keeping of training conducted.

Scheduled drills and exercises will involve onsite as well as offsite emergency personnel, organizations, and agencies. These drills and exercises will be conducted simulating, as closely as possible, actual emergency conditions; and may be scheduled such that one or more drills or exercises are held simultaneously. Drill scenarios will be prepared that involve the participation of several emergency teams and all or specific parts of the onsite and offsite emergency organizations. This may include varying degrees of participation of state, county, and federal organizations and agencies, and local service support personnel and organizations. The Manager, Regulatory Compliance and Emergency Response will notify the offsite emergency response organizations and agencies at least thirty days in advance of the scheduled date of the drill or exercise. Collection and analysis of all sample media (e.g., water, vegetation, soil and air) should be included in the drills. Drills will involve on-the-spot correction of erroneous performance, and a demonstration of the proper performance by the controller, if necessary.

During the conduct of exercises, the controllers are restricted in their ability to correct erroneous performance, and may only intercede to assure safety of personnel, or prevent damage to equipment.

Recommendations for revisions to the DBNPS Emergency Plan, Emergency Plan Procedures, and/or the upgrading of emergency equipment and supplies, as a result of a drill or exercise, are forwarded to the Manager, Regulatory Compliance and Emergency Response by observers or participants. The Manager, Regulatory Compliance and Emergency Response will submit such procedure revisions for review in accordance with Emergency Plan Administrative Procedure. Approved changes will be incorporated into the Emergency Response Program under the direction of the Manager, Regulatory Compliance and Emergency Response .

At least annually, in cooperation with the EMAs of Ottawa and Lucas Counties and the State of Ohio, DBNPS will update the information provided to members of the public within the 10-mile Emergency Planning Zone.

8.3 Review and Update of the Emergency Plan and Emergency Plan Procedures DBNPS maintains, as separate documents; this Emergency Plan, the Emergency Plan Implementing Procedures, Off-Normal Occurrence Procedures, the Emergency Plan Administrative Procedures, Fleet procedures to support station emergency plans, a Public Information Emergency Response Procedure, the Emergency Plan Telephone Directory, and the Evacuation Time Estimate (ETE). It is intended that this plan, although considered as part of the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station (DBNPS), Unit 1, Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR), will be maintained as a separate document. This is more clearly defined in the Updated Safety Analysis Report (USAR), Section 13.3.

8.3.1 The DBNPS Emergency Plan, including appended letters of agreement and plans of offsite organizations and agencies will be reviewed annually and updated as required by the Emergency Response Section, under the direction of the Emergency Response Manager.

8.3.2 The DBNPS Emergency Plan will be reviewed annually by an independent group with no immediate responsibility for the emergency response program. This group is the Fleet Oversight organization. Results and recommendations from the review will be documented and sent to appropriate corporate and plant management, including the Company Nuclear Review Board (CNRB). The CNRB is responsible for auditing the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Emergency Plan to verify compliance at least once every two years. The CNRB performs this function by reviewing the audits which are performed by the Fleet Oversight organization. The report on the adequacy of the interfaces between the DBNPS Emergency Plan and the state and local governments will be sent to the respective government agencies by the Emergency Response Section, and retained on file for at least five years.

Davis-Besse Oversight is responsible for auditing the DBNPS Emergency Plan at least annually to verify compliance with the companys internal rules and procedures, federal regulations, and operating license provisions. Personnel performing audits of the DBNPS Emergency Plan and/or Emergency Plan Procedures will take into account corporate policy, state policy and plans, county plans, and the various agreements and

8-9 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX understandings with federal, state, county and local support groups, agencies and organizations. Davis-Besse Oversight is responsible for auditing the fire protection program at least once per 24 months per the FENOC Quality Assurance Program Manual.

9-1 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX 9.0 REENTRY AND RECOVERY 9.1 Reentry During an emergency, immediate actions are directed toward limiting the consequences of the accident, so as to afford maximum protection to Station personnel and the general public. Once mitigative measures have been taken and effective control reestablished, the response efforts shift towards reentry and recovery. Reentry is made to perform certain essential actions which could not be performed coincident with the immediate response to the emergency.

Offsite Reentry is the responsibility of state and local authorities. It typically consists of environmental monitoring and assessment of the actions required to support return of the public to evacuated areas and residences. Additional details regarding plans and procedures for offsite reentry are found in The Ohio Radiological Emergency Preparedness Plan and the Ohio Emergency Operations Plan . DBNPS will provide support and assistance to offsite agencies as requested to facilitate these efforts.

Onsite reentry is made when the emergency situation is under control and more deliberate planning can be made for the activities to be performed. These activities may occur prior to termination of the emergency, or they may be conducted as part of the Recovery phase of the response. All reentry actions conducted prior to the termination of the emergency will be authorized by the Emergency Coordinator, and coordinated by the Operations Support Center (OSC) Coordinator and the Radiation Protection (RP) Coordinator. Reentry conducted during Recovery will be authorized by the Plant Recovery Manager. When preplanning these initial onsite reentries, the following items will typically be considered:

9.1.1 Review available radiation surveillance data to determine plant areas potentially affected by radiation and/or contamination.

9.1.2 Review radiation dose histories of personnel required to participate in the recovery operations.

9.1.3 Determine the need for additional personnel and the source of these additional personnel.

9.1.4 Review adequacy of radiation survey instrumentation and equipment (i.e., types, ranges, number, calibration).

9.1.5 Pre-plan survey team activities to include:

a. Areas to be surveyed
b. Anticipated radiation and contamination levels
c. Radiation survey equipment required
d. Shielding requirements and availability
e. Protective clothing and equipment required
f. Access control procedures (issuance of new RWPs) including exposure control limits and personnel dosimetry required
g. Decontamination requirement
h. Communications requirements

9-2 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX 9.1.6 Review and revise security access lists to prevent unauthorized or unintentional entry into hazardous areas.

9.1.7 Reentry teams should be tasked with as many of the following as possible:

a. Determination of the initial required recovery operations.
b. Observation of hazards or potential hazards associated with the recovery operations.
c. Conducting comprehensive surveillance of plant facilities.
d. Isolating and posting of areas in the plant with appropriate warning signs and rope barriers, such as Radiation Areas, High Radiation Areas, High Airborne Activity Areas, and Contaminated Areas, etc.
e. Assessing the conditions of station equipment and areas.

In the period immediately following an accident, initial radiation monitoring functions involve only gross hazard evaluations, isolation of the hazard, and the definition of radiological problem areas. This immediate radiation surveillance activity is used to provide the basic information for recovery operations.

9.2 Recovery The Emergency Director and Emergency Coordinator have the joint responsibility for determining when an emergency situation is stable and the Station is ready to enter the recovery phase. The Recovery Organization will develop and coordinate plans and schedules for recovery operations.

The Emergency Coordinator, under the direction of the Emergency Director, will be responsible at the site for coordinating onsite recovery activities and the return to normal operations.

At the time that an emergency has been terminated, and Recovery has been initiated, the EOF Manager will be responsible for providing notification to Federal agencies.

9.2.1 Prior to terminating an emergency and entering the Recovery phase, the Emergency Director will coordinate with the Emergency Coordinator and the EOF Manager to ensure that the following criteria have been considered:

a. The conditions which caused the emergency have stabilized, are under control, and are unlikely to deteriorate further.
b. The plume is beyond the ten-mile Emergency Planning Zone, and/or plume tracking is no longer required. The only environmental assessment activities in progress may be those necessary to assess the extent of deposition resulting from passage of the plume.

9-3 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX

c. In-plant radiation levels are acceptable, and are stable or decreasing.
d. Radioactive releases are under control and are no longer in excess of technical specification limits.
e. The potential for uncontrolled radioactive releases is acceptably low.
f. Containment pressure is within technical specifications.
g. The reactor is in a stable safe shutdown condition and long-term core cooling is available as required.
h. Any fire, flood, earthquake or similar emergency condition no longer exist.
i. All contaminated injured, personnel have been transported to a medical care facility.
j. All required notifications have been made.
k. Offsite conditions will not limit access of personnel and support resources to DBNPS.
l. Discussions have been held with all offsite and select regulatory agencies, and agreement has been reached to terminate the emergency.

9.2.2 The extent of recovery activities will dictate the precise framework of the Recovery Organization:

a. For events of a minor nature, the normal onshift organization should be adequate to perform necessary recovery actions (e.g., for UNUSUAL EVENT classifications).
b. For events involving significant damage to plant systems required to maintain operation of the plant, the onsite emergency organization, or portions thereof, should be adequate to coordinate the necessary recovery actions (e.g., for ALERT classifications).
c. For events involving damage to plant systems required to maintain safe shutdown of the reactor, a formal Recovery Organization will be established to manage the recovery actions (e.g., for SITE AREA or GENERAL EMERGENCY classifications).

Particular attention should be directed toward isolating components and systems as required to control or minimize the hazards. A systematic investigation will be conducted to determine the extent of any equipment damage. Recovery operations are considered to be terminated when the plant has returned to pre-accident levels of radiation and contamination or to conditions, which are acceptable and controllable for an extended period of time.

9-4 DBNPS Emergency Plan Revision XX Recovery operations that may result in the release of radioactive materials shall be evaluated by the Recovery Director. Such events and data pertaining to the release will be reported to the appropriate offsite emergency organizations and agencies.

In the final phase of the recovery operations, a restoration program will begin. The overall purpose of the restoration program is to prepare for resumption of full-power operations. This program will include a detailed incident analysis.

Determinations will be made as to the repair work required to perform needed modifications to plant equipment and/or operating procedures. Repair work and approved modifications will be carried out as authorized. Test programs to confirm fitness and acceptability to return to service will be developed and executed.

Since no emergency is considered to exist during this time period, normal limits of radiation dose will be applied during the restoration. Compliance with the limits are the responsibility of the Recovery Director.

A recovery plan, must be flexible enough to adapt to existing, rather than theoretical, conditions. It is not possible to anticipate in advance all of the conditions that may be encountered in an emergency situation. Therefore, the DBNPS plan addresses some general principles that will serve as a guide for developing a flexible plan of action.

Specific members of the Recovery Organization will be selected based upon the sequence of events that preceded the recovery activities.

9.2.3 The following is a basic framework for the formation of a formal Recovery Organization. The reporting chain for the organization is outlined in Figure 9-1.

This organization may be modified as necessary for any particular incident.

a. Recovery Director The Recovery Director is responsible for directing the activities of the Recovery Organization, including the following:
1. Ensure that sufficient personnel from DBNPS and other organizations are available to support recovery.
2. Direct the development of a recovery plan and implementing procedures, as required.
3. Coordinate the deactivations of emergency response facilities and personnel as appropriate.
4. Coordinate the integration of available state and federal assistance into recovery activities.

Davis Besse ERO Change Summary Current Performer / Functions Proposed Performer / Functions EOF Operations Advisor Operations Communicator (EOF)

- Gather, interpret and advise the Emergency - Serve as a liaison between operations personnel Offsite Manager and personnel in other facilities via

- Provide key plant parameters to dose - Alert the EOF Manager of any vital data related assessment groups to plant status Change: Transition of Operations Advisor to Operations Communicator in the EOF Justification:

Establishing a common activation timeframe and classification level for the TSC and EOF allows for simultaneous transfer of command and control functions from the control room with onsite activities (Classification, Federal Notification, Exposure Authorization) being transferred to the TSC and offsite responsibilities (State/local Notifications, PARs) being transferred to the EOF.

This alignment also provides for reduction in duplicative staffing positions. The TSC Operations Coordinator position will be responsible for tracking and communication of plant status and performance of duties associated with event classification as that function will be performed solely by the TSC under the proposed change. Since the classification function will no longer be performed in the EOF, there is no longer a need for the EOF Operations Advisor position in the EOF and so the position is being renamed Operations Communicator and will be responsible for communication of plant status information between ERFs.

There is no loss of capability associated with this function as a result of the proposed change.

Current Performer / Functions Proposed Performer / Functions NRC Liaison Offsite Agency Liaison

- Establishing and maintaining communications - Provide responses to questions from offsite with the NRC agencies Change: Transition of NRC Liaison to Offsite Agency Liaison in the EOF Justification:

Establishing a common activation timeframe and classification level for the TSC and EOF allows for simultaneous transfer of command and control functions from the control room with onsite activities (Classification, Federal Notification, Exposure Authorization) being transferred to the TSC and offsite responsibilities (State/local Notifications, PARs) being transferred to the EOF. The NRC communications function will transition from the CR to the ENS Communicator in the TSC. This position is described in further detail below.

This alignment, along with the establishment of dedicated ENS and HPN Communicator positions, allows for a single position in the EOF to successfully interface with Offsite Response Organization (ORO),

Federal Agencies and act as the EOF link for the State EOC Liaisons dispatched to offsite locations.

There is no loss of capability associated with this function as a result of the proposed change.
