Proposed Emergency Plan Change River Bend Station, Unit 1 Docket No. 50-458 License No. NPF-47 RBG-46996 RBF1-10-0013
Dear Sir or Madam:
The enclosed Emergency Plan changes are hereby submitted for NRC staff review and approval as required by 10 CFR 50.54(q), 50.4, and 50.90. The proposed change modifies the station's commitment to NUREG-0654, Table B-i, "Minimum Staffing Requirements for NRC Licensees for Nuclear Power Plant Emergencies," and will allow two maintenance positions on shift to be filled with any, combination of the three maintenance craft disciplines.
Currently, Table 13.3-17 of the Emergency Plan shows that only Electrical or Instrumentation
& Control (I&C) technicians may fill the two positions. This change is intended to reduce the burden related to scheduling only selected maintenance technicians on shift.
The proposed change was evaluated against the criteria of 10 CFR 50.47, 10 CFR 50, Appendix E and other NRC guidance documents. This change has been deemed a decrease in effectiveness of the Emergency Plan in accordance with 10 CFR 50.54(q) and the guidance contained in NRC RIS 2005-02, therefore NRC approval is required. The requested change is acceptable in that there is reasonable assurance that adequate protective measures can and will be taken in the event of a radiological emergency. This change has been reviewed and approved by the Onsite Safety Review Committee (OSRC).
This change was prepared using the Emergency Plan SMART Application Template format requirements.
The proposed change has been evaluated in accordance 10 CFR 50.92(c) and it has been determined that the changes involve no significant hazards considerations. Attachment 1 provides the No Significant Hazards Consideration for the change. provides the justification for each change. Attachment 2 includes a mark-up of the latest Emergency Plan illustrating the proposed changes. Attachment 3 is a revised copy of Emergency Plan Table 13.3-17 and reflects all proposed Attachment 2 changes. The proposed change includes three new commitments as listed in Attachment 4.
IC~d-4
RBG-46996 Page 2 of 2 Although this request is neither exigent nor emergency, your prompt review is requested.
Once approved, the amendment shall be implemented within 90 days.
If you have any questions or require additional information, please contact David Lorfing at 225-381-4157.
I declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing is true and correct. Executed on January 28, 2010.

RBG-46996 Page 1 of 6 Justification for Revision to Emergency Plan 1.0. Description of Proposed Change:
The current RBS Emergency Plan (Plan) requires three personnel on shift to perform Repair and Corrective Action functions associated with mechanical, electrical and I&C tasks. The current Plan Table 13.3-17 (copied below) lists the specific personnel that may fill these positions on shift.
Current Emergency Plan Table 13.3-17 Major Position Title On Capability for Additions Functional Area Emergency Tasks Or Expertise Location Shift (h) 90 Min Repair and Corrective Mechanical Maintenance/

This allowance is not applicable during declared emergencies.
(i) Trained in valve manipulation for basic mechanical tasks.
The current RBS practice is to fill these positions with a Radwaste Operator and two I&C Technicians. These personnel are on shift to perform the function of Repair and Corrective Actions associated with mechanical, electrical and I&C related tasks during the first 90 minutes of an event. The current shift staffing practice does not include mechanical or electrical maintenance technicians on shift. I&C Maintenance personnel who fill the on-shift positions are trained in valve manipulation for basic mechanical tasks as required by Plan Table 13.3-17. Electrical Maintenance also receives this training.
Augmented personnel consist of Mechanical Maintenance (2), Electrical Maintenance (2) and I&C (1). These additional personnel report to the site within 90 minutes of an event.
RBG-46996 Page 2 of 6 The proposed change would revise Plan Table 13.3-17 as follows:

maintenance personnel are trained in basic electrical / I&C tasks. The two personnel on shift may be any cobnation of the three maintenance disciplines.
River Bend's proposal designates the Emergency Response Organization (ERO) function of Repair and Corrective Actions, currently performed by I&C or Electrical Maintenance personnel, to be performed by Electrical, I&C, or Mechanical Maintenance.
As changed, the required shift complement of two technicians may be any combination from the three maintenance discipline groups. The Radwaste Operator will remain under the Repair and Corrective Action functional area.
Section 13.3.4.2.2.4 of the Emergency Plan will also be changed to reflect the different maintenance disciplines on~shift:

- are immediately available to perform repair and corrective actions as directed by the Si Manager.
An additional aspect of this proposed change increases the 90-minute responders for I&C Maintenance from one to two. Table 13.3-17 currently shows one additional I&C technician responding at 90 minutes. The proposed change adds an additional I&C technician responding within 90 minutes. The result of the proposed change is six additional maintenance personnel, two from each discipline, responding within 90 minutes.
I--
RBG-46996 Page 3 of 6 2.0 Justification for the Request:
River Bend's Plan requires two dedicated Maintenance personnel on shift for the Repair and Corrective Action function. The Plan does not delineate any specific tasks related to repair and corrective actions during the first 90 minutes of an event. However, during the initial stages of an event, the maintenance need would be of a troubleshooting or minor repair nature.
The guidance in NUREG-0654/FEMA-REP-1
- Table B-1, for repair and corrective actions states that two individuals, one Mechanical Maintenance/Radwaste Operator and one Electrical Maintenance/l&C technician, should be designated for each shift, but their functions may be carried out by shift personnel assigned other duties:

1 Engineering, Repair Corrective Actions Radwaste Operator 1
and Corrective Electrical Maintenance/
1"*
1 1
Actions Instrument and Control (I&C) Technician
- May be provided by shift personnel assigned other functions.
The proposed change will allow the required shift complement of two technicians to be any combination from the three maintenance groups. Since-the repair and corrective action function is currently filled-by I&C technicians, additional actions will be taken to ensure basic Electrical/l&C tasks can be performed by Mechanical Maintenance personnel. Mechanical Maintenance personnel will receive training in basic electrical and I&C tasks to ensure that tasks related to these disciplines can be performed if needed in the first 90 minutes of an event.
During the initial stages of an event, the major response activities are concentrated on' determining the cause of the event and placing the plant in a safe condition through plant manipulations and system alignments. Major equipment repairs are not expected to be performed in the initial phases of the event. The repair and corrective action functions that will be performed will be focused on those necessary to implement Emergency Operating Procedures. These specific emergency tasks are proceduralized in Emergency Operating Procedure (EOP)-0005, "Emergency Operating and Severe Accident Procedures Enclosures" and are performed by non-licensed and licensed operators. Using EOP-0005, River Bend identified the following areas where Maintenance can be used to assist Operators.
Electrical theory Electrical safety for electrical workers Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR)
Remove/Replace fuses Trip units (dial up)
Install/remove electrical jumpers
RBG-46996 Page 4 of 6 Open/close breakers Operating relays Gagging valves Venting control rods A task analysis will be conducted and training plans developed. Training of repair and corrective action tasks will be conducted prior to using Mechanical Maintenance personnel to fill this position.
Significant, ERO-resource intensive repair and corrective action activities are not performed until Emergency Response Facilities are operational and staffed with augmenting personnel as described in Table 13.3-17 of the Emergency Plan. It is important to note that River Bend emergency facilities are required to be operational at the declaration of an ALERT. Early activation at an ALERT ensures that emergency response personnel are readily available to respond to a change in plant conditions.
2.1 Basis for Effectiveness of Change The proposed changes were evaluated to ensure compliance with 10CFR50.47(b)(2) such that the key functional tasks that on-shift ERO personnel should be able to perform at all times without augmentation are unaffected. The key functional tasks are:
Classification of an event.
Declaration of an event.
Offsite agency notification.
Dose assessment and issuance of PAR's (protective action recommendations).
Mitigation of the event.
In order to make the proposed change, it was necessary to verify there were no remaining tasks that on-shift personnel could not perform. For the Repair and Corrective Action Function, there was no loss in effectiveness since two dedicated Maintenance personnel will be on shift. Each Maintenance discipline will be appropriately trained to fulfill the required function.
There is no loss of effectiveness in performing the key functional tasks in a timely manner, by experienced and trained personnel, therefore compliance with 10CFR50.47 and NUREG 0654 is maintained. The ability to perform key functions at all times, combined with two dedicated Maintenance personnel on shift, and early augmentation at an ALERT, result in no loss of effectiveness and therefore the changes are acceptable.
2.2 Conclusion Since the initial repair and corrective actions are primarily observations and other duties, the type of craft on duty as-part of the shift staffing need not be limited to I&C personnel.
It is only later that basic repair and corrective actions can be undertaken. Since the ERO will be staffed within 90 minutes, appropriate resources will be available to support the planning and execution of craft-specific maintenance tasks. Therefore, it is appropriate to add Mechanical Maintenance personnel to the shift complement as an option to fill the two maintenance positions.
RBG-46996 Page 5 of 6 Regulatory Issue Summary (RIS) 2005-02 defines a decrease in effectiveness as a change in an emergency preparedness (EP) requirement that results in the degradation or loss of the capability to perform a function or perform a function in a timely manner, as contained in the Emergency Plan. RIS 2005-02 clarifies a change in an EP requirement based on capability, meaning the Emergency Plan as changed, would result in the loss or degradation of the capability to meet the regulatory requirements of an Emergency Plan. Consequently, the capability to perform a function(s) as previously stated in the Emergency Plan no longer exists or is degraded. RIS 2005-02 defines an EP requirement, in part, as a statement made in the Emergency Plan which addresses how a particular regulatory requirement will be met and emphasizes all EP requirements are subject to the 10 CFR 50.54(q) change process. Thus, allowing a combination of two maintenance personnel from any discipline to perform the repair and corrective action function constitutes a decrease in effectiveness and requires prior approval before implementation.
3.0 No Significant Hazards Consideration River Bend has evaluated the proposed Emergency Plan revision against the criteria of 10 CFR 50.92(c) to determine if any significant hazards consideration is involved. River Bend has concluded that this proposed change does not involve a significant hazards consideration. The following is a discussion of how each of the 10 CFR 50.92(c) criteria is satisfied.
(1) Does not involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated.
The proposed change does not increase the probability or consequences of an accident. The change only impacts the implementation of the Emergency Plan by changing staffing of the Repair and Corrective action functions after an event. It has no impact on plant equipment or the operation of plant equipment and thus has no impact on the. probability or consequences of an event. The number of personnel on shift has not been revised from the current Emergency Plan. The repair and corrective action function would continue to be performed by trained personnel Because the process, personnel, and equipment involved in implementing the Emergency Plan would complete the same functions as those completed under the existing Emergency Plan, the Plan would continue to ensure adequateprotection of public health and safety.
(2) Does not create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated.
The change only impacts the implementation of the Emergency Plan by changing staffing of the Repair and Corrective action functions after an event. The change does not impact any plant equipment or systems needed to respond to an accident, nor does it involve any analysis of plant accidents. The proposed change does not create a new or different kind of accident from any previously evaluated because this change only impacts emergency response repair functions.
RBG-46996 Page 6 of 6 (3) Does not involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety.
The change to the Emergency Plan does not reduce the margin of safety currently provided by the Plan as it maintains the current number of personnel on shift to perform Repair and Corrective action functions. Repair and corrective actions will continue to be performed by trained personnel. Therefore, the proposed changes do not involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety.
4.0 Environmental Impact Evaluation The proposed Plan change does not involve (i) a significant hazards consideration, (ii) a significant change in the types or significant increase in the amounts of any effluent 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)(9). Therefore,
.pursuant to 10 CFR 51.22(b), no environmental impact statement or environmental assessment need be prepared in connection with the'proposed change.
