| description = During an NRC inspection conducted between October 4 and November 19, 2004, at the Perry Nuclear Power Plant, a violation of NRC requirements was identified. In accordance with the General Statement of Policy and Procedure for NRC Enforcement Actions, NUREG-1600, the violation is listed below: Title 10 CFR 50.54(q) requires, in part, that a licensee authorized to operate a nuclear power reactor shall follow and maintain in effect emergency plans which meet the standards in Section 50.47(b). Title 10 CFR 50.47(b)(4) requires, in part, that a standard emergency classification and action level scheme is in use by the nuclear facility licensee. The Perry Nuclear Power Plant Emergency Plan, Section 4.0, provided an emergency classification system which includes Emergency Action Levels. Emergency Action Level (EAL) HA1 required, in part, that when entered, an emergency dose assessment run using the appropriate source term, determined at the time of the event, must be performed within 15 minutes concurrently with Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM) calculations to determine if Site Area Emergency entry criteria have been met. Contrary to the above, on July 20, 2004, the First Energy Nuclear Operating Company, a licensee authorized to operate the Perry Nuclear Plant, failed to implement the emergency classification system and emergency action levels described in Section 4.0 of the Perry Power Plant Emergency Plan. Specifically, the licensee did not conduct the emergency dose assessment required by EAL HA1 within 15 minutes of its classification of the event as an Alert at 3:44 a.m. on July 20, 2004. The licensee completed the emergency dose assessment at 6:24 a.m., 2 hours and 40 minutes after the Alert declaration. As a result, the licensee failed to meet the requirements of their emergency plan during a declared Alert. This violation is associated with a White Significance Determination Process finding. Pursuant to the provisions of 10 CFR 2.201, First Energy Nuclear Operating Company is hereby required to submit a written statement or explanation to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, ATTN: Document Control Desk, Washington, DC 20555, with a copy to the Regional Administrator, Region III, and a copy to the NRC Resident Inspector at the facility that is the subject of this Notice, within 30 days of the date of the letter transmitting this Notice of Violation (Notice). This reply should be clearly marked as a Reply to a Notice of Violation; EA-04-214, and should include for each violation: (1) the reason for the violation, or, if contested, the basis for disputing the violation or severity level; (2) the corrective steps that have been taken and the results achieved; (3) the corrective steps that will be taken to avoid further violations; and (4) the date when full compliance will be achieved. Your response may reference or include previous docketed correspondence if the correspondence adequately addresses the required response. If an adequate reply is not received within the time specified in this Notice, an order or a Demand for Information may be issued as to why the license should not be modified, suspended, or revoked or why such other action as may be proper should not be taken. Where good cause is shown, consideration will be given to extending the response time. | | description = During an NRC inspection conducted between October 4 and November 19, 2004, at the Perry Nuclear Power Plant, a violation of NRC requirements was identified.
