VERMONT YANKEE NUCLEAR POWER STATION- REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION REGARDING LICENSE AMENDMENT REQUEST FOR EMERGENCY PLAN CHANGE (TAC NO. MF3668)
Dear Sir or Madam:
By letter dated March 24, 2014, Entergy Nuclear Operations, Inc. (ENO, the licensee) submitted an amendment request to change the site emergency plan by revising the on-shift and Emergency Response Organization staffing to support the permanently defueled condition.
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff is reviewing the submittal and has determined that additional information is needed to complete its review. The specific questions are found in the enclosed request for additional information (RAI). Based on our discussions we understand that a response to the RAI will be provided by May 30, 2014. If you have any questions regarding this letter, please feel free to contact James Kim at (301) 415-4125.
Sincerely, James Kim, Project Manager Plant Licensing Branch IV-2 and Decommissioning Transition branch Division of Operating Reactor Licensing Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation Docket No. 50-271

REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION REGARDING AMENDMENT REQUEST FOR EMERGENCY PLAN CHANGE ENTERGY NUCLEAR OPERATIONS. INC.
VERMONT YANKEE NUCLEAR POWER STATION DOCKET NO. 50-271 By letter dated March 24, 2014, (Agency-wide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession No. ML14085A257), Entergy Nuclear Operations, Inc. (ENO) requested an amendment to the site emergency plan (SEP) for the Vermont Yankee Nuclear Power Station (VY). ENO requests review and approval of a revision to the VY SEP to revise the on-shift staffing and Emergency Response Organization (ERO) staffing prior to the approval of their concurrent emergency plan (EP) exemption request.
Formal offsite radiological emergency preparedness (REP) plans, approved by the U.S. Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) in accordance with 44 CFR 350, are required to be maintained and in effect until such time as the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission approves an exemption to formal offsite EP requirements. The changes proposed by ENO, specifically in regards to ERO staffing of the licensee's emergency operations facility and Joint Information Center have the potential to adversely impact the effective implementation of State and local REP plans.
The following requests for additional information (RAI) are necessary to facilitate the technical review being conducted by the Division of Preparedness and Response, Operating Reactor Licensing and Outreach Branch staff, in regards to the impact of proposed staffing changes on formal offsite REP plans that are currently required under existing EP regulations. Timely and accurate response to the draft RAI is requested in order to meet the proposed deadline requested by licensee.
RAI-VY-01 Please identify whether the proposed changes to the VY SEP were evaluated for their impact, and if the approval date and implementation period will provide adequate time to allow State and local response organizations the ability to effectively implement their FEMA-approved REP plans, specifically in regards to licensee interface and coordination with State and local response organizations. If so, please provide the evaluation performed and documentation regarding discussions with affected State and local response organizations used in making this determination.
Enclosure
RAI-VY-02 If potential impacts to offsite response organizations (OROs) exist, have the proposed changes to the VY SEP been reviewed and agreed upon by the affected OROs to ensure they can continue to meet the requirements of their current FEMA-approved emergency plans? Please provide documentation that the affected OROs have reviewed and concurred on the proposed changes.
