' Review the description of your emergency organization and revise it as necessary to provide a clear depiction of all emergency functions required during initial, intermediate, and final phases of augmentation and recovery:
update the Site and Corporate Emergency Plans to describe the updated organization; revise and issue implementing procedures which have been human engineered so that all emergency response tasks can be carried out using the command and information pathways of the organization. The updated description of the emergency organization snould include a sufficient level of detail:
clearly specify the command hierarchy, its structure, reporting chains and interrelationships at any phase of augmentation, and include supervisory as well as non-supervisory elements.

NRC Item B.22 Consider issuing dosimetry to personnel as they enter the Emergency Operations Facility (EOF)
(50-445/8943-41: 50-446/8943-41)
TV Electric Response B.22 Previous revisions of Emergency procedures required all personnel in the E0F to be issued dosimetry when the EOF was activated. As a result emergency team members got too involved with filling out forms rather than getting the facility activated.
Now the program allows the Radiation Protection Coordinator to decide when dosimetry is to be issued based on plant conditions and habitability status of the E0F.
This works well, is less disruptive and distracting, and accomplishes the objective of monitoring personnel exposure when warranted.

' Review and revise Procedure EPP-313 to specify the use of emergency medical technicians (EMTs) as first-aid team members.
(50-445/8943-44: 50-446/8943-44)
TU-Electric Response B.23 The Emergency Organization Roster, as described in EPP-203, " Emergency Communications." assigns Emergency Medical Technicians (EMT) as First-aid Team member.
EMT's are trained to respond t o an emergency as a first-aid team member and therefore EPP-313 is correct in specifying the EMT by_
their emergency organization position title.
