Part Ill. Description of How the Proposed Change Complies with Regulation and Commitments.

If the emergency plan, modified as proposed, no longer complies with planning standards in 10 CFR 50.47(b) and the requirements in Appendix E to 10 CFR Part 50, then ensure the change is rejected, modified, or processed as an exemption request under 10 CFR 50.12, Specific Exemptions, rather than under 10 CFR 50.54(q):

Changes are grouped as follows for evaluation purposes:

  • Changes 3-8 move Chemistry Supervisor responsibilities to the Operations Supervisor which impacts PS 1, Function 1b, and PS 2, Function 2b.

Changes 3-8 This change is supported by on-shift staffing analyses and promotes efficiency gains. All functions performed by chemistry personnel are directed by operations procedures. Using the Operations supervisor to directly request these actions, vs going through the Chemistry Supervisor improves the timeliness of response. The Operations supervisor has the capacity to perform this function as part of their ongoing activities. During normal and emergency operations, operations procedures direct when to take chemistry samples. When procedures direct to take a chemistry sample, operations contacts chemistry to perform samples and report results to control room. This process will only modify by location when OSC is activated. The OSC Operations Supervisor will be in contact with control room during declared emergencies and as samples are required by procedure, the OSC Operations Supervisor will direct chemistry to perform samples and report results to OSC. The OSC Operations Supervisor is trained to direct and control in-plant operations as directed by procedure. The OSC Operations Supervisor is aware of plant conditions and will continue to dispatch missions including requesting chemistry samples using OSC resources ensuring radiological and personnel safety. Chemistry samples will continue to be assessed in TSC for upgrades in classification and core damage assessments. Responsibilities for chemistry sampling continue to be defined and timely augmentation of chemistry sampling supervision is available. The ERO continues to be staffed to augment initial response on a continuous basis. Thus, the Harris Emergency Plan will continue to comply with 10 CFR 50.47(b)(1) Assignment of Responsibility/Organizational Control, 10 CFR 50.47(b)(2), Onsite Emergency Organization, and 10 CFR Part 50 Appendix E, Section IV.A Organization.

The changes evaluated above continue to meet NRC requirements as described in 10 CFR 50.47(b) and 10 CFR 50, Appendix E.

Part IV. Description of Emergency Plan Planning Standards, Functions and Program Elements Affected by the Proposed Change (Address each function identified in Attachment 4, 10 CFR 50.54(q) Screening Evaluation Form, Part IV of associated Screen):

10CFR50.47(b)(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.

10CFR50 Appendix E.IV.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:

2. A description of the onsite emergency response organization (ERO) with a detailed discussion of:
a. Authorities, responsibilities, and duties of the individual(s) who will take charge during an emergency;
b. Plant staff emergency assignments;
c. Authorities, responsibilities, and duties of an onsite emergency coordinator who shall be in charge of the exchange of information with offsite authorities responsible for coordinating and implementing offsite emergency measures.
3. A description, by position and function to be performed, of the licensee's headquarters personnel who will be sent to the plant site to augment the onsite emergency organization.

The associated EP Function is Function 1b, "The response organization has the staff to respond and to augment staff on a continuing basis (i.e., 24/7 support) in accordance with the emergency plan."

Program Element NUREG-0654 Section II.A A.1.e. Each organization shall provide for 24-hour emergency response, including 24-hour per day manning of communication links.

A.4 Each principal organization shall be capable of continuous (24-hour) operations for a protracted period. The individual in the principal organization who will be responsible for assuring continuity of resources (technical, administrative, and material) shall be specified by title.

10CFR50.47(b)(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 associated EP Function is Function 2b, "The process for timely augmentation of onshift staff is established and maintained."

Rev. 5 Page 5 of 7

<< 10 CFR 50.54(q) Effectiveness Evaluation Form >>

Program Elements NUREG-0654 Section II.B B.1 Each licensee shall specify the onsite emergency organization of plant staff personnel for all shifts and its relation to the responsibilities and duties of the normal staff complement.

B.5 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. The implementation schedule for licensed operators, auxiliary operators and the shift technical advisor on shift shall be as specified in the July 31, 1980 letter to all power reactor licensees. Any deficiencies in the other staffing requirements of Table B-1 must be capable of augmentation within 30 minutes by September 1, 1981, and such deficiencies must be fully removed by July 1, 1982.

Part V. Description of Impact of the Proposed Change on the Effectiveness of Emergency Plan Functions:

Changes are grouped as follows for evaluation purposes:

  • Changes 3-8 move Chemistry Supervisor responsibilities to the Operations Supervisor which impacts PS 1, Function 1b, and PS 2, Function 2b.

Changes 3-8 move Chemistry Supervisor responsibilities to the Operations Supervisor in the OSC. This change is due to staffing analysis and efficiency gains. During normal and emergency operations, operations procedures direct when to take chemistry samples. When procedures direct to take a chemistry sample, operations contacts chemistry to perform samples and report results to control room. This process will only modify by location when OSC is activated, and on shift activities are not impacted by this change. The OSC Operations Supervisor will be in contact with control room during declared emergencies and as samples are required by procedure, the OSC Operations Supervisor will direct chemistry to perform samples and report results to OSC. The OSC Operations Supervisor is trained to direct and control in-plant operations as directed by procedure. Operations Supervisors come from the Operations Department with background as an Operator. These additional tasks are similar to daily operations interface they have with the chemistry technicians. The OSC Operations Supervisor is aware of plant conditions and will continue to dispatch missions including requesting chemistry samples using OSC resources ensuring radiological and personnel safety. Chemistry samples will continue to be assessed in TSC for upgrades in classification and core damage assessments. Responsibilities for chemistry sampling continue to be defined and timely augmentation of chemistry sampling supervision is available. During the March 2019 ERO Drill this new model was tested. There were no challenges to the OSC functions and or the ability to dispatch the appropriate resources for chemistry sampling analysis. The Chemistry supervisor position was evaluated and implemented during the 2016 Duke Energy standard ERO implementation. During the 2016 staffing comparison it was recognized that 4 additional positions were added to the full staffing figure 2.2-1, and total ERO members increased from 32 to 36. The Chemistry supervisor was one of the 4 additions to the full staffing figure, however, was not listed as a minimum staffing position to the OSC. Shifting the responsibilities of the chemistry supervisor to the Operations Supervisor does not add additional burden to the Operations Supervisor or the rest of the ERO.

The ERO continues to be staffed to augment initial response on a continuous basis. Thus, there is no reduction in effectiveness of the Emergency Planning Functions of Assignment of Responsibility and Onsite Emergency Organization.

The changes described provide assurance that the normal plant operating organization and ERO has the ability and capability to:

  • respond to an emergency;
  • perform functions in a timely manner;
  • effectively identify and take measures to ensure protection of the public health and safety; and

Rev. 5 Page 6 of 7

<< 10 CFR 50.54(q) Effectiveness Evaluation Form >>

  • effectively use response equipment and emergency response procedures.

Thus, there is no reduction in effectiveness of the Harris Emergency Plan.

Part VI. Evaluation Conclusion.
