Safety Significance Determination (Preliminary)

Significance Determination Process, IMC 0609 App. B

  • A loss of planning standard function occurred when the exercise critique process failed to identify the operators performance as a weakness associated with a risk significant planning standard
  • The identification and correction of weaknesses is fundamentally important to the EP Cornerstone Objective

Apparent Violation Failure to meet requirement

  • 10 CFR 50.47(b)(14), requires exercises to be conducted and deficiencies identified to be corrected
  • 10 CFR 50, App. E,Section IV.F.2.g, requires exercises to provide formal critiques to identify weak or deficient areas that need correction
  • 10 CFR 50.47(b)(4), requires a standard EAL scheme to be in in use by the licensee and State and local response plans call for reliance on licensee information for initial offsite response measures
  • Failure to identify the performance weakness during the critique The apparent violations discussed in this predecisional regulatory conference are subject to further review and are subject to change prior to any resulting enforcement action
