Individuals who make choices that result in less than adequate sleep to remain alert and avoid fatigue are not meeting their obligations to safely and competently perform assigned duties. 4.1.3. Methods used to manage fatigue include training, behavioral observation, fatigue countermeasures and work hour limitations. 4.1.4. The BOP shall include behavioral observation training, a legal action reporting program, and annual supervisory reviews. To maintain UAA/UA an individual must
 
be covered under a BOP. 4.1.5. The BOP is conducted by supervisors, management personnel and all who are trained and is intended to "detect individual behavioral changes which, if left unattended, could lead to acts detrimental to the public health and safety." 4.1.6. The BOP is not intended to be used as a means of reporting what might be considered inadequate or marginal job performance. Established methods available to supervisors should continue to be used in these cases. 4.1.7. Individuals who are on a leave of absence and/or are not in a BOP for greater than 30 days, shall have their unescorted access terminated and will be required to complete the appropriate Personnel History Questionnaire (PHQ) and/or any other Access Authorization and Fitness for Duty requirements depending on when the individual returns from the absence, prior to reinstatement of unescorted access. 4.1.8. If unusual behavior, suspected drug use, the detected odor of alcohol, or any conditions adverse to station safety for any individuals escorted and unescorted is observed, notify your supervisor and/or department head, and Security immediately. 4.1.9. If the sale, use, or possession of drugs in the station or on company property is observed, report this IMMEDIATELY to your supervisor and Security. 4.1.10. When it is identified that an individual may be impaired and such impairment could affect the safe operation of the plant or negatively reflect the individual's trustworthiness or reliability, that individual shall be escorted at all times, while within the protected area. 4.1.11. Although the BOP is the primary methodology for determining continued trustworthiness and reliability, clinical interviews may be used to provide added
 
assurance.

===4.2. Training===
4.2.1. The BOP training presented in Exelon's Fitness For Duty Program satisfies both the Access Authorization Rule and the Fitness For Duty Rule. This training provides reasonable assurance that individuals have sufficient awareness and sensitivity to
 
detect degradation in performance which may be the result of being under the influence of any substance, legal or illegal, fatigued, physical or mental impairment
 
which in any way may adversely affect their ability to safely and competently perform


their duties. 4.2.2. The program also provides techniques related to recognition of behaviors adverse to the safe operation and security of the facility, e.g., unusual interest in or predisposition towards security or operations activities outside the scope of ones normal work assignments, or frequent unexplained absence from work assignments.

: 12. Ability to identify symptoms of worker fatigue and contributors to decreased alertness in the workplace.
4.3.      Worker Stress 4.3.1. Individuals should be knowledgeable of causes of worker stress in the workplace.
: 1.      Daily stress is normal.
: 2.      Stress is derived from events that occur throughout life e.g., marriage and family life, job changes, job performance, etc.
: 3.      Chronic stress the worker is at risk for adverse impact on day-to-day living, e.g.,
behavior changes.
4.3.2. Contributors to worker stress may include:
: 1.      Increased irritability, feelings of depression, chronic fatigue (fatigue that has set in over several weeks or months), overreacting to any single situation, impulsiveness, excessive use of alcohol or drugs, and constant sense of worry.
4.3.3. Worker fatigue can also have an adverse effect on job performance.
4.4.      Dietary Factors 4.4.1. Certain available food products such as poppy seeds, hemp oil, energy drinks containing alcohol, marijuana-flavored lollipops and coca leaf tea, some liquid or inhalant cold and cough preparations containing alcohol or codeine although not all inclusive, may cause positive test results.


Individuals will be trained to the supervisory level on their responsibilities for
SY-AA-103-513 Revision 7 Page 13 of 24 4.4.2. Marijuana-flavored lollipops have such names as Purple Haze, Acapulco Gold and Rasta. They are legal because they are made with hemp oil, a common ingredient in some health food, beauty supplies and other household products. The oil imparts marijuanas grassy taste but not the high. Merchants are calling them as a harmless novelty item for adults. Health food stores are also selling more and more products made from hemp. Though consuming products containing hemp oil create no psychoactive effect, they will cause a positive urinalysis test for marijuana. The Medical Review Officer will not accept hemp product ingestion as an alternative medical explanation for a positive marijuana test.
4.4.3. There is an herb named Kava Kava that is found in health food stores and has been used, like valerian root, as an over the counter prescription for stress relief and can make you appear impaired.
4.4.4. Energy drinks containing alcohol are prohibited while on company property.
Individuals who consume these drinks are impaired because of the alcohol in their system. These drinks contain alcohol in quantities sufficient to cause a positive test for alcohol and the MRO will not accept an energy drink product ingestion as an alternative medical explanation for a positive alcohol test.
4.4.5. Coca leaf tea contains cocaine in quantities sufficient to cause a positive test for cocaine, and the MRO will not accept coca leaf product ingestion as an alternative medical explanation for a positive cocaine test.
4.4.6. It is an employees responsibility to maintain fitness for duty and be aware of the effects of each drink, food, or drug you ingest. Although a substance, food, or health supplement is reported safe for you and is legal, it does not mean it is wise or safe to ingest these items because they can result in a positive alcohol or drug test.
Remember to read labels and ask questions before you purchase and use a new product.
4.5.      Illegal Drugs 4.5.1. Some of the drugs which are illegal under federal, state, or local laws include, among others, marijuana, heroin, hashish, cocaine and hallucinogens. Depressants, stimulants, and other controlled substances not prescribed for current personal treatment by an accredited physician also fall under this rule.
4.5.2. Drugs can have a significant impact on job performance. Those individuals using drugs or other chemicals can have:
: 1.          Impaired judgment and vision;

: 1. An individual's ability to perform and remain alert is influenced by physiological changes that follow a daily pattern. 2. Humans are hard-wired with a genetic ally-determined biological need for sleep and with a circadian pacemaker that pr ograms us to sleep at night and to be awake during the day, on a 24-hour schedule. 3. Sleep is a complex, active physiological state that is vital to human survival. 4. When an individual is deprived of sleep, the response is sleepiness, which is the brain's signal to prompt an i ndividual to obtain sleep. 5. When deprived of sleep (acutely or chronically), the human brain can spontaneously, in an uncontrolled fashion, shift from wakefulness to sleep in order to meet its physi ological need for sleep. 6. Twenty-four hour operations challenge t hese basic physiological principles. 7. Individuals may be trying to work w hen the brain is progr ammed to be asleep, during the circadian low-point in alertness and performance capacity. 8. Conversely, individuals may be trying to sleep when the brai n is programmed to be awake; leading to sleep loss and poor sleep quality, which further degrades alertness and performance capacity. 9. Shift work, altered and changing wo rk schedules, crossing time zones, long hours of continuous wakefulness, and sleep loss can create sleep and circadian disruptions that degr ade waking function. 10. This results in fatigue and sleepine ss while driving, monitoring equipment; degraded vigilance and decision making; and a wide range of other performance effects that can erode the safety margin in operational settings.

4.4. Dietary Factors 4.4.1. Certain available food products such as poppy seeds, hemp oil, energy drinks containing alcohol, marijuana-flavored lollipops and coca leaf tea, some liquid or inhalant cold and cough preparations containing alcohol or codeine although not all inclusive, may cause positive test results.

SY-AA-103-513 Revision 7 Page 13 of 24 4.4.2. Marijuana-flavored lollipops have such names as Purple Haze, Acapulco Gold and Rasta. They are legal because they are made with hemp oil, a common ingredient in some health food, beauty supplies and other household products. The oil imparts marijuanas grassy taste but not the high. Merchants are calling them as a harmless novelty item for adults. Health food stores are also selling more and more products made from hemp. Though consuming products containing hemp oil create no psychoactive effect, they will cause a positive urinalysis test for marijuana. The Medical Review Officer will not accept hemp product ingestion as an alternative medical explanation for a positive marijuana test.

4.4.3. There is an herb named Kava Kava that is found in health food stores and has been used, like valerian root, as an over the counter prescription for stress relief and can make you appear impaired.

4.4.4. Energy drinks containing alcohol are prohibited while on company property.

Individuals who consume these drinks are impaired because of the alcohol in their system. These drinks contain alcohol in quantities sufficient to cause a positive test for alcohol and the MRO will not accept an energy drink product ingestion as an alternative medical explanation for a positive alcohol test.

4.4.5. Coca leaf tea contains cocaine in quantities sufficient to cause a positive test for cocaine, and the MRO will not accept coca leaf product ingestion as an alternative medical explanation for a positive cocaine test.

4.4.6. It is an employees responsibility to maintain fitness for duty and be aware of the effects of each drink, food, or drug you ingest. Although a substance, food, or health supplement is reported safe for you and is legal, it does not mean it is wise or safe to ingest these items because they can result in a positive alcohol or drug test.

Remember to read labels and ask questions before you purchase and use a new product.

4.5. Illegal Drugs 4.5.1. Some of the drugs which are illegal under federal, state, or local laws include, among others, marijuana, heroin, hashish, cocaine and hallucinogens. Depressants, stimulants, and other controlled substances not prescribed for current personal treatment by an accredited physician also fall under this rule.

4.5.2. Drugs can have a significant impact on job performance. Those individuals using drugs or other chemicals can have:

1. Impaired judgment and vision;
2. Changes in reflexes; and
3. Reduced analytical ability 4.5.3. Common drugs that may be used are:

4.6.3. Circadian Variations in Alertness and Performance:

1. The normal, inherent, unavoidable, 24-hour rhythms in human information processing and physical performance.
2. Most of these circadian rhythms fluctuate between a high point late in the day to a low point in the pre-dawn hours and are mostly exemplified by:

A. Night work; and B. Shift work 4.6.4. Acute Fatigue - can either be physical or mental and builds up normally and unavoidably within one waking period.

4.6.5. Cumulative Fatigue - can either be physical or mental and builds up across major waking periods when there is inadequate recovery (due to inadequate sleep) between the waking periods.

4.6.6. Chronic Fatigue - may set in after several weeks or months of cumulative fatigue.

Its symptoms are similar to those of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS):

1. The desire to sleep;
2. Apathy;
3. Substantial impairment in short-term memory or concentration;
4. Muscle pain;
5. Multi-joint pain without swelling or redness;

SY-AA-103-513 Revision 7 Page 16 of 24

6. Headaches of a new type, pattern or severity;
7. Un-refreshing sleep; and
8. Post-exertional malaise lasting more than 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />.

4.6.7. Physiological Changes that Follow a Daily Pattern

1. An individuals ability to perform and remain alert is influenced by physiological changes that follow a daily pattern.
2. Humans are hard-wired with a genetically-determined biological need for sleep and with a circadian pacemaker that programs us to sleep at night and to be awake during the day, on a 24-hour schedule.
3. Sleep is a complex, active physiological state that is vital to human survival.
4. When an individual is deprived of sleep, the response is sleepiness, which is the brains signal to prompt an individual to obtain sleep.
5. When deprived of sleep (acutely or chronically), the human brain can spontaneously, in an uncontrolled fashion, shift from wakefulness to sleep in order to meet its physiological need for sleep.
6. Twenty-four hour operations challenge these basic physiological principles.
7. Individuals may be trying to work when the brain is programmed to be asleep, during the circadian low-point in alertness and performance capacity.
8. Conversely, individuals may be trying to sleep when the brain is programmed to be awake; leading to sleep loss and poor sleep quality, which further degrades alertness and performance capacity.
9. Shift work, altered and changing work schedules, crossing time zones, long hours of continuous wakefulness, and sleep loss can create sleep and circadian disruptions that degrade waking function.
10. This results in fatigue and sleepiness while driving, monitoring equipment; degraded vigilance and decision making; and a wide range of other performance effects that can erode the safety margin in operational settings.

4.6.8. Two Common Sleep Disorders:

1. Sleep Apnea - A temporary suspension of breathing occurring repeatedly during sleep that often affects overweight people or those having an obstruction in the breathing tract, an abnormally small throat opening, or a neurological disorder.

SY-AA-103-513 Revision 7 Page 17 of 24

2. Insomnia - Chronic inability to fall asleep or remain asleep for an adequate length of time.

4.6.9. Indications and Risk Factors for Common Sleep Disorders:

1. Extended work and/or Commuting Periods;
2. Split-Shift Work Schedules
3. Sleep/Work Periods Conflicting with Circadian Rhythms;
4. Changing or Rotating Work Schedules;
5. Lack of Rest or Nap Periods;
6. Sleep Disruptions;
7. Inadequate Exercise Opportunities;
8. Poor Diet; and
9. Environmental Stressors 4.6.10. Shift-Work Strategies to Optimize Sleep Periods to Obtain Adequate Rest:
1. Minimize sleep loss; it is important not to begin a new work schedule with an existing sleep debt (normally requires 2 nights of unrestricted sleep);
2. Take naps; minimize to 30 minutes (only allowed during non-paid work time in designated areas when in a work status);
3. Develop good sleep habits; a regular pre-sleep routine can condition relaxation in preparation for falling asleep (physical and mental relaxation techniques such as meditation, yoga and progressive muscle relaxation can be used); and
4. Understand the affects of food, alcohol and exercise; being hungry or eating too much may interfere with falling asleep as well as the use of nicotine or caffeine; alcohol produces easily disrupted, lighter sleep and suppresses REM (rapid eye movement); regular exercise may enhance deep sleep but avoid strenuous exercise within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> of going to bed.

4.6.11. Countermeasures that can be used at Home:

1. Adequate Sleep is the best way to prevent or resolve fatigue;
2. Create a comfortable sleep environment at home; get a comfortable mattress; adjust heating and cooling as needed and get in habit of sleeping 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> per night;

SY-AA-103-513 Revision 7 Page 18 of 24

3. Napping (only allowed during non-paid work time in designated areas) and should be less than 30 minutes. Longer naps produce sleep inertia, which is counterproductive;
4. Anchor sleep is 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> of sleep at the same time each day used when a normal 8-hour sleep cannot be achieved (effect when changing from shift to shift); and
5. Being mindful of effects of medications 4.6.12. Countermeasures that can be used at Work:
1. Strategic caffeine use to help work through decreased alertness;
2. Social interaction and active involvement in conversation;
3. Physical activity such as stretching and isometric exercises; and
4. Consume well-balanced meals and plan ahead for nutritious snack food (simple carbohydrates can cause sugar highs followed by lows that cause decreased alertness) 4.6.13. Symptoms of fatigue include:
1. Yawning
2. Red eyes
3. Prolonged/excessive blinking
4. Irritability
5. Sleepiness
6. Difficulty concentrating
7. Apathy
8. Feeling of isolation
9. Annoyance
10. Increased reaction time to stimulus
11. Slowing of higher level mental functioning
12. Decreased vigilance
13. Memory problems

SY-AA-103-513 Revision 7 Page 19 of 24

14. Increased errors while performing tasks 4.6.14. Contributors to Decreased Alertness and Increased Worker Fatigue:
1. Task demands such as:

A. Repetitiveness B. High cognitive demands C. High level of required attention D. Sedentary E. Lack of social interaction

2. Environmental conditions such as:

A. High heat and humidity B. Poor lighting C. Low frequency noise 4.7. Legal Action Reporting 4.7.1.

2.7. Nominal - The limited flexibility that is permitted in meeting a scheduled due date for completing a recurrent activity that is required under this part, such as the nominal annual 12-month frequency required for FFD refresher training in 10 CFR 26.29(c)(2) and the nominal annual 12-month frequency required for certain audits in 10 CFR 26.41(c)(1). Completing a recurrent activity at a nominal frequency means that the activity may be completed within a period that is 25 percent longer or shorter than the period required in this part. The next scheduled due date would be no later than the current scheduled due date plus the required frequency for completing the activity.

2.8. Observation - The process used when coming into contact with others, including personal contact, telephone contact (although this is not the preferred method and should not be used to extend an individuals unescorted access when the individual has not been observed in person for a period of 30 days or more), video-conference, monitoring of work output, attendance, and consultation with or feedback from supervisors and co-workers.

3. RESPONSIBILITIES 3.1. Individuals who sign a personal history questionnaire in order to obtain UAA/UA but have not been granted UAA/UA but are in the process, are responsible for reporting to their supervisor and security any legal actions as defined in this procedure. Individuals are required to report this on their first day back to in-processing activities subsequent to any legal action.

3.8. Exelon Nuclear Security Individuals are responsible for ensuring that the annual supervisor review is completed.

3.9. Reviewing Official - will evaluate any notification of observed behaviors or conditions identified in this procedure to determine continued UAA/UA.

3.9.1. If the Reviewing Official has a reason to believe that the reported individual's trustworthiness or reliability is questionable, the reviewing official shall either administratively withdraw or terminate the individual's unescorted access unescorted access or unescorted access authorization while completing the re-evaluation or an investigation.

4. MAIN BODY 4.1. Behavior Observation Program 4.1.1. After an individuals emotional stability, reliability, and trustworthiness has been determined so that they can safely and competently perform assigned duties, and the individual has UAA or has been granted UA to Exelons nuclear power stations or assigned responsibility for administration of the Fitness for Duty or Access Authorization Program activities, this must be maintained and his/her behavior must be observed and evaluated not to exceed a 30 day timeframe.

4.1.2. Individuals are required to be fit-for-duty by getting sufficient rest to ensure they are not subject to fatigue. Individuals who make choices that result in less than adequate sleep to remain alert and avoid fatigue are not meeting their obligations to safely and competently perform assigned duties.

4.1.3. Methods used to manage fatigue include training, behavioral observation, fatigue countermeasures and work hour limitations.

4.1.4. The BOP shall include behavioral observation training, a legal action reporting program, and annual supervisory reviews. To maintain UAA/UA an individual must be covered under a BOP and is required to comply with access authorization and fitness for duty program policies and procedures.

4.1.5. The BOP is conducted by supervisors, management personnel and all who are trained and is intended to detect individual behavioral changes which, if left unattended, could lead to acts detrimental to the public health and safety.

SY-AA-103-513 Revision 8 Page 12 of 26 4.1.6. The BOP is not intended to be used as a means of reporting what might be considered inadequate or marginal job performance. Established methods available to supervisors should continue to be used in these cases.

4.1.7. Individuals who are on a leave of absence and/or are not in a BOP for greater than 30 days, shall have their unescorted access terminated and will be required to complete the appropriate Personnel History Questionnaire (PHQ) and/or any other Access Authorization and Fitness for Duty requirements depending on when the individual returns from the absence, prior to reinstatement of unescorted access.

4.1.8. If unusual behavior, suspected drug use, the detected odor of alcohol, or any conditions adverse to station safety for any individuals escorted and unescorted is observed, notify your supervisor and/or department head, and Security immediately.

4.1.9. If the sale, use, or possession of drugs in the station or on company property is observed, report this IMMEDIATELY to your supervisor and Security.

4.1.10. When it is identified that an individual may be impaired and such impairment could affect the safe operation of the plant or negatively reflect the individuals trustworthiness or reliability, that individual shall be escorted at all times, while within the protected area.

4.1.11. Although the BOP is the primary methodology for determining continued trustworthiness and reliability, clinical interviews may be used to provide added assurance.

4.2. Training 4.2.1. The BOP training presented in Exelons Fitness For Duty Program satisfies both the Access Authorization Rule and the Fitness For Duty Rule. This training provides reasonable assurance that individuals have sufficient awareness and sensitivity to detect degradation in performance which may be the result of being under the influence of any substance, legal or illegal, fatigued, physical or mental impairment which in any way may adversely affect their ability to safely and competently perform their duties.

4.2.2. The program also provides techniques related to recognition of behaviors adverse to the safe operation and security of the facility, e.g., unusual interest in or predisposition towards security or operations activities outside the scope of ones normal work assignments, or frequent unexplained absence from work assignments.

Individuals will be trained to the supervisory level on their responsibilities for remaining trustworthy and reliable.

SY-AA-103-513 Revision 8 Page 13 of 26 4.2.3. The program also includes; recognition that changes in emotional state can happen quickly; typical conditions which trigger behavioral anomalies; the need for early intervention after recognition of changes in behavior which typically indicate changes in emotional state; the recognition of uncharacteristic deviations in collegial interactions, uncharacteristic absences from work, or uncharacteristic inattention to detail, or suspected alcohol or drug abuse; and the need to report the above conditions to the employees assigned supervisor or fitness-for-duty program manager.

4.2.4. The training program shall address the knowledge and abilities necessary to detect behavior or activities that have the potential to constitute an unreasonable risk to the public health and safety and common defense and security, including the potential to commit radiological sabotage.

4.2.5. Personnel are trained to possess the following Knowledge and Abilities (K&As):

1. Knowledge of the policy and procedures that apply to the individual, the methods that will be used to implement them, and the consequences of violating the policy and procedures;
2. Knowledge of the individuals role and responsibilities under the FFD program;
3. Knowledge of the roles and responsibilities of others, such as the MRO and the human resources, FFD, and EAP staffs;
4. Knowledge of the EAP services available to the individual;
5. Knowledge of the personal and public health and safety hazards associated with abuse of illegal and legal drugs and alcohol;
6. Knowledge of the potential adverse effects on job performance of prescription and over-the-counter drugs, alcohol, dietary factors, illness, mental stress, and fatigue;
7. Knowledge of the prescription and over-the-counter drugs and dietary factors that have the potential to affect drug and alcohol test results;
8. Ability to recognize illegal drugs and indications of the illegal use, sale, or possession of drugs;
9. Ability to observe and detect performance degradation, indications of impairment, or behavioral changes;
10. Knowledge of the individuals responsibility to report an FFD concern and the ability to initiate appropriate actions, including referrals to the EAP and person(s) designated by the licensee or other entity to receive FFD concerns;
11. Knowledge of the contributors to worker fatigue, circadian variations in alertness and performance, indications and risk factors for common sleep disorders, shift-

SY-AA-103-513 Revision 8 Page 14 of 26 work strategies for obtaining adequate rest, and the effective use of fatigue countermeasures; and

12. Ability to identify symptoms of worker fatigue and contributors to decreased alertness in the workplace.

4.2.6. All individuals identified herein shall undergo initial BOP training. The initial training shall include a comprehensive examination addressing these requirements. BOP Refresher training shall be completed on a nominal annual basis and shall be documented as required by licensee or C/V procedures. In lieu of refresher training a comprehensive examination may be administered.

4.2.7. Remedial training and re-testing are required for individuals who fail to satisfactorily complete the comprehensive examination.

4.2.8. Initial and refresher training may be delivered using a variety of media (including, but not limited to, classroom lectures, required reading, video, or computer-based training systems). The licensee or C/V shall monitor the completion of training.

4.3. Worker Stress 4.3.1. Individuals should be knowledgeable of causes of worker stress in the workplace.

1. Daily stress is normal.
2. Stress is derived from events that occur throughout life e.g., marriage and family life, job changes, job performance, etc.
3. Chronic stress the worker is at risk for adverse impact on day-to-day living, e.g.,

behavior changes.

4.3.2. Contributors to worker stress may include:

1. Increased irritability, feelings of depression, chronic fatigue (fatigue that has set in over several weeks or months), overreacting to any single situation, impulsiveness, excessive use of alcohol or drugs, and constant sense of worry.

4.3.3. Worker fatigue can also have an adverse effect on job performance.

4.4. Dietary Factors 4.4.1. Certain available food products such as poppy seeds, hemp oil, energy drinks containing alcohol, marijuana-flavored lollipops and coca leaf tea, some liquid or inhalant cold and cough preparations containing alcohol or codeine although not all inclusive, may cause positive test results.

4.4.2. Marijuana-flavored lollipops have such names as Purple Haze, Acapulco Gold and Rasta. They are legal because they are made with hemp oil, a common ingredient in some health food, beauty supplies and other household products. The oil imparts marijuanas grassy taste but not the high. Merchants are calling them as a harmless

SY-AA-103-513 Revision 8 Page 15 of 26 novelty item for adults. Health food stores are also selling more and more products made from hemp. Though consuming products containing hemp oil create no psychoactive effect, they will cause a positive urinalysis test for marijuana. The Medical Review Officer will not accept hemp product ingestion as an alternative medical explanation for a positive marijuana test.

4.4.3. There is an herb named Kava Kava that is found in health food stores and has been used, like valerian root, as an over the counter prescription for stress relief and can make you appear impaired.

4.4.4. Energy drinks containing alcohol are prohibited while on company property.

Individuals who consume these drinks are impaired because of the alcohol in their system. These drinks contain alcohol in quantities sufficient to cause a positive test for alcohol and the MRO will not accept an energy drink product ingestion as an alternative medical explanation for a positive alcohol test.

4.4.5. Coca leaf tea contains cocaine in quantities sufficient to cause a positive test for cocaine, and the MRO will not accept coca leaf product ingestion as an alternative medical explanation for a positive cocaine test.

4.4.6. It is an employees responsibility to maintain fitness for duty and be aware of the effects of each drink, food, or drug you ingest. Although a substance, food, or health supplement is reported safe for you and is legal, it does not mean it is wise or safe to ingest these items because they can result in a positive alcohol or drug test.

Remember to read labels and ask questions before you purchase and use a new product.

4.5. Illegal Drugs 4.5.1. Some of the drugs which are illegal under federal, state, or local laws include, among others, marijuana, heroin, hashish, cocaine and hallucinogens. Depressants, stimulants, and other controlled substances not prescribed for current personal treatment by an accredited physician also fall under this rule.

4.5.2. Drugs can have a significant impact on job performance. Those individuals using drugs or other chemicals can have:

1. Impaired judgment and vision;
2. Changes in reflexes; and
3. Reduced analytical ability 4.5.3. Common drugs that may be used are:
1. Cannabis: Cannabis (e.g., marijuana,THC) is brilliant green in color with an odd number of saw-tooth edged leaves. Some signs of Cannabis use include:

A. Bloodshot eyes, dilated (wide) pupils

SY-AA-103-513 Revision 8 Page 16 of 26 B. Appearance of intoxication or disorientation

2. Stimulants: Stimulates the central nervous system. Some examples of stimulants include: caffeine, nicotine, amphetamines, methamphetamine, some over-the-counter diet pills, and cocaine. Some signs of Stimulant use include:

A. Increased alertness or excitation B. Euphoria

3. Depressant: Depresses the central nervous system. Some examples of depressants include: barbiturates, Valium, Quaaludes, and alcohol.

A. Some signs of Depressant use include:

B. Slurred speech C. Odor on breath (alcohol)

4. Narcotic: Used medically to relieve pain and to treat diarrhea. Some examples include: opium, heroin, codeine, morphine, and paregoric.

A. Some signs of Narcotic use include:

B. Constricted or narrow pupils of the eyes C. Nausea

5. Hallucinogen: Synthetic or natural drugs that distort the perception of objective reality. Use may lead to delusions and visual hallucinations. Some examples of hallucinogens include: psilocybin, LSD, phencyclidine (PCP) and mescaline.

A. Some signs of Hallucinogen use include:

B. Blank stare or rapid eye movement C. Delusions and visual hallucinations 4.6. Principle Factors that Contribute to Worker Fatigue 4.6.1. Individuals should be knowledgeable of causes and the impact of fatigue in the workplace as well as the effective use of counter measures. Knowledge of these topics is necessary to ensure that individuals are able to:

1. Self-manage fatigue that is caused by shift work and factors other than work hours;
2. Take actions to maintain their alertness at work; and

SY-AA-103-513 Revision 8 Page 17 of 26

3. Recognize and seek treatment for sleep disorders that might be creating fatigue or making their own fatigue more severe.

4.6.2. Physical Fatigue is Present:

1. When an individuals diminished physical capability is due to overexertion; or
2. Excessive time of exertion; or
3. A brief physical workload that is excessive and the resulting fatigue degrades physical task performance.

4.6.3. Circadian Variations in Alertness and Performance:

1. The normal, inherent, unavoidable, 24-hour rhythms in human information processing and physical performance.
2. Most of these circadian rhythms fluctuate between a high point late in the day to a low point in the pre-dawn hours and are mostly exemplified by:

A. Night work; and B. Shift work 4.6.4. Acute Fatigue - can either be physical or mental and builds up normally and unavoidably within one waking period.

4.6.5. Cumulative Fatigue - can either be physical or mental and builds up across major waking periods when there is inadequate recovery (due to inadequate sleep) between the waking periods.

4.6.6. Chronic Fatigue - may set in after several weeks or months of cumulative fatigue.

Its symptoms are similar to those of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS):

1. The desire to sleep;
2. Apathy;
3. Substantial impairment in short-term memory or concentration;
4. Muscle pain;
5. Multi-joint pain without swelling or redness;
6. Headaches of a new type, pattern or severity;
7. Un-refreshing sleep; and

SY-AA-103-513 Revision 8 Page 18 of 26

8. Post-exertional malaise lasting more than 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />.

4.6.7. Physiological Changes that Follow a Daily Pattern

1. An individuals ability to perform and remain alert is influenced by physiological changes that follow a daily pattern.
2. Humans are hard-wired with a genetically-determined biological need for sleep and with a circadian pacemaker that programs us to sleep at night and to be awake during the day, on a 24-hour schedule.
3. Sleep is a complex, active physiological state that is vital to human survival.
4. When an individual is deprived of sleep, the response is sleepiness, which is the brains signal to prompt an individual to obtain sleep.
5. When deprived of sleep (acutely or chronically), the human brain can spontaneously, in an uncontrolled fashion, shift from wakefulness to sleep in order to meet its physiological need for sleep.
6. Twenty-four hour operations challenge these basic physiological principles.
7. Individuals may be trying to work when the brain is programmed to be asleep, during the circadian low-point in alertness and performance capacity.
8. Conversely, individuals may be trying to sleep when the brain is programmed to be awake; leading to sleep loss and poor sleep quality, which further degrades alertness and performance capacity.
9. Shift work, altered and changing work schedules, crossing time zones, long hours of continuous wakefulness, and sleep loss can create sleep and circadian disruptions that degrade waking function.
10. This results in fatigue and sleepiness while driving, monitoring equipment; degraded vigilance and decision making; and a wide range of other performance effects that can erode the safety margin in operational settings.

4.6.8. Two Common Sleep Disorders:

1. Sleep Apnea - A temporary suspension of breathing occurring repeatedly during sleep that often affects overweight people or those having an obstruction in the breathing tract, an abnormally small throat opening, or a neurological disorder.
2. Insomnia - Chronic inability to fall asleep or remain asleep for an adequate length of time.

4.6.9. Indications and Risk Factors for Common Sleep Disorders:

1. Extended work and/or Commuting Periods;

SY-AA-103-513 Revision 8 Page 19 of 26

2. Split-Shift Work Schedules
3. Sleep/Work Periods Conflicting with Circadian Rhythms;
4. Changing or Rotating Work Schedules;
5. Lack of Rest or Nap Periods;
6. Sleep Disruptions;
7. Inadequate Exercise Opportunities;
8. Poor Diet; and
9. Environmental Stressors 4.6.10. Shift-Work Strategies to Optimize Sleep Periods to Obtain Adequate Rest:
1. Minimize sleep loss; it is important not to begin a new work schedule with an existing sleep debt (normally requires 2 nights of unrestricted sleep);
2. Take naps; minimize to 30 minutes (only allowed during non-paid work time in designated areas when in a work status);
3. Develop good sleep habits; a regular pre-sleep routine can condition relaxation in preparation for falling asleep (physical and mental relaxation techniques such as meditation, yoga and progressive muscle relaxation can be used); and
4. Understand the affects of food, alcohol and exercise; being hungry or eating too much may interfere with falling asleep as well as the use of nicotine or caffeine; alcohol produces easily disrupted, lighter sleep and suppresses REM (rapid eye movement); regular exercise may enhance deep sleep but avoid strenuous exercise within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> of going to bed.

4.6.11. Countermeasures that can be used at Home:

1. Adequate Sleep is the best way to prevent or resolve fatigue;
2. Create a comfortable sleep environment at home; get a comfortable mattress; adjust heating and cooling as needed and get in habit of sleeping 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> per night;
3. Napping (only allowed during non-paid work time in designated areas) and should be less than 30 minutes. Longer naps produce sleep inertia, which is counterproductive;
4. Anchor sleep is 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> of sleep at the same time each day used when a normal 8-hour sleep cannot be achieved (effect when changing from shift to shift); and
5. Being mindful of effects of medications

SY-AA-103-513 Revision 8 Page 20 of 26 4.6.12. Countermeasures that can be used at Work:

1. Strategic caffeine use to help work through decreased alertness;
2. Social interaction and active involvement in conversation;
3. Physical activity such as stretching and isometric exercises; and
4. Consume well-balanced meals and plan ahead for nutritious snack food (simple carbohydrates can cause sugar highs followed by lows that cause decreased alertness) 4.6.13. Symptoms of fatigue include:
1. Yawning
2. Red eyes
3. Prolonged/excessive blinking
4. Irritability
5. Sleepiness
6. Difficulty concentrating
7. Apathy
8. Feeling of isolation
9. Annoyance
10. Increased reaction time to stimulus
11. Slowing of higher level mental functioning
12. Decreased vigilance
13. Memory problems
14. Increased errors while performing tasks 4.6.14. Contributors to Decreased Alertness and Increased Worker Fatigue:
1. Task demands such as:

A. Repetitiveness B. High cognitive demands C. High level of required attention

SY-AA-103-513 Revision 8 Page 21 of 26 D. Sedentary E. Lack of social interaction

2. Environmental conditions such as:

A. High heat and humidity B. Poor lighting C. Low frequency noise 4.7. Legal Action Reporting 4.7.1. Any individual who signs a personal history questionnaire in order to obtain UAA/UA but has not been certified UAA or granted UA and individuals with UAA/UA who have had any legal action, as defined in this procedure, are required to report this on their first day back to work subsequent to the incident. Any incident involving drugs or alcohol must be reported. If there is any question as to whether an incident is reportable, individuals should contact their Supervisor, Department Head, and/or Site Security Access/Fitness For Duty Lead for a determination.

1. As a minimum, the employee should be prepared to provide the date of the incident, the charge, final disposition and/or court date, if known.

SY-AA-103-513 Revision 8 Page 22 of 26 4.7.7. Failure to report any legal action could result in unescorted access being denied. In addition to the potential denial of unescorted access, Exelon personnel who fail to report an incident could receive disciplinary action up to and including termination.

Exelon Corporate Nuclear Security will discuss the legal action with the individual and evaluate the incident for appropriate action. The reporting of any legal action may result in unescorted access being placed on temporary hold pending further review. A decision regarding the status of his/her unescorted access will be made and the employee advised.

4.7.8. Upon receipt of information of a felony conviction of a licensed operator, Exelon Corporate Nuclear Security will notify Human Resources. The site has 30 days to notify the Nuclear Regulatory Commission about the Operators conviction for a felony per the requirements of 10CFR 55.53(g).

4.7.9. Upon receipt of information of a domestic violence legal action on a member of the Security organization, Site Security Access/Fitness For Duty Lead will notify the Security Manager.

1. A description of any condition that may have resulted in the employee acting or behaving in an unconventional manner;
2. Any circumstances which may indicate the need to refer the employee for additional medical or psychological review; and any information developed over the review period, regarding the behavioral characteristics of the employee supervised. This information would typically include behavioral norm deviations which have been reported to the supervisor through implementation of the BOP, as well as those behavioral norm deviations personally observed by the supervisor.

4.8.4. If the supervisor does not have the frequent interaction with the individual throughout the review period needed to form an informed and reasonable opinion regarding the individual's behavior, trustworthiness, and reliability, the individual is also subject to a supervisory interview in accordance with the requirements of the licensee's or C/Vs BOP.

4.8.5. For Exelon employees, in cases where the individuals position is one of the highest ranking positions of authority, or the individual does not physically report to the same permanent work location as the individuals immediate supervisor, the supervisory review may be completed by another supervisor who works directly with the individual on a regular basis and is aware/trained on their responsibilities for behavior observation.
