The following violation of very low safety … The following violation of very low safety significance (Severity Level IV) was identified by the licensee and is a violation of NRC requirements which meets the criteria of Section VI of the NRC Enforcement Policy, for being dispositioned as a non-cited violation (NCV): 10 CFR 50.54(q) states in part, A licensee authorized to possess and operate a nuclear power reactor shall follow and maintain in effect emergency plans which meet the standards in 50.47(b) and the requirements in Appendix E of this part. The nuclear power reactor licensee may make changes to these plans without Commission approval only if the changes do not decrease the effectiveness of the plans and the plans, as changed, continue to meet the standards of 50.47(b) and the requirements of Appendix E to this part. 10 CFR 50.47(b)(4) states in part, A standard emergency classification and action level scheme, the bases of which include facility system and effluent parameters, is in use by the nuclear facility licensee... Contrary to the above, on August 31, 2005, the licensee decreased the effectiveness of their emergency plan as a result of revising classifiable conditions in two emergency action levels (EALs) and did not request Commission approval. The two EALs affected the capability to make Alert declarations as a result of a fire, explosion or tornado affecting one train of equipment or structure(s) required for Safe Shutdown. Constellation entered this issue in their corrective action program under IRE-027-361. Changing an emergency plan resulting in a decrease in effectiveness (DIE) of the plan without prior Commission approval impacts the NRCs ability to perform its regulatory function and is therefore processed through traditional enforcement, as specified in Section IV.A.3 of the Enforcement Policy, issued April 18, 2005. In accordance with Enforcement Policy Supplement VIII, this violation is appropriately characterized as Severity Level IV because, although these two EALs could not have been implemented as approved and were not part of a standard emergency classification scheme, planning standard 10 CFR 50.47(b)(4) was met. These changes directly affected the planning standard for assessment capability at Calvert Cliffs, but this problem was isolated to two EALs and was not indicative of a functional problem with the EAL scheme. Because this violation was of very low safety significance, was not repetitive or willful, and was entered into the licensee=s corrective action program, this violation is being treated as an NCV, consistent with the NRC Enforcement Policy (EA-08-323)ith the NRC Enforcement Policy (EA-08-323)
