Appendix E, F.2.j Each exercise must provide the opportunity for the ERO to demonstrate key skills specific to emergency response duties in the control room, TSC, OSC, EOF, and joint information center.

Additionally, in each eight calendar year exercise cycle, nuclear power reactor licensees shall vary the content of scenarios during exercises conducted under paragraph 2 of this section to provide the opportunity for the ERO to demonstrate proficiency in the key skills necessary to respond to the following scenario elements: hostile action directed at the plant site, no radiological release, an unplanned minimal radiologlcal release that does not require public protective actions, an initial classification of or rapid escalation to a Site Area Emergency or General Emergency.... -

Currently EPIP 6.1 directs testing on a 6 year cycle. Given the inclusion of new types of scenarios required to test hostile actions, no radiological release, and in the future FLEX, alignment with the NUREG Is needed so the function of testing the different types of scenarios can be accomplished.

Change 2 (EPIP 6.1) improves the comprehensiveness of testing exercise objectives and demonstration criteria by aligning with the Fleet procedure, which will also reduce confusion on what procedure to follow.

The function of maintaining a drill and exercise program and meeting the NUREG 8 year exercise cycle will be enhanced by incorporating the more comprehensive Fleet Drill and Exercise Objectives and Demonstration Criteria into EPIP 6.1 and by aligning our program with the NUREG exercise cycle that better accommodates the increasing number of types of exercises that have to be tested.

2. Does the proposed change maintain the emergency plan with no reduction in effectiveness?

lZJ YES ONO

~ The answer to BOTH question 1 & 2 are YES. The proposed change may be implemented without prior NRG approval.
