OPEN ITEMS - RESPONSES Open Item #1 Prior to Fuel Load, there must be at least three persons identified for all onsite emergency organization positions.    (456/86021-01; 457/86019-01)
 
===Response===
At least three people were identified for each onsite GSEP position at the end of the second quarter 1986. Individuals completed all required training during the third quarter, 1986 and they will be included in the fourth quarter staff augmentation list (Bw2P 600-1) effective October 1, 1986.
This item is considered complete.
Open Item #2 Prior to Fuel Load, the applicant must conduct a successful off-hours augmentation drill of the onsite emergency organization. (456/86021-02; 457/86019-02)
 
===Response===
A successful unannounced off hours augmentation drill of the onsite emergency organization was conducted on 7/29/86. A minimum Technical Support Center staff, as defined in generic GSEP, would have been onsite within the 60 minute augmentation goal.
This item is considered complete.
Open Item #3 Prior to Fuel Load, the applicant must re-evaluate the Shift Foreman's l
multiple emergency assignments to ensure manning requirements are met during fires and/or other GSEP events which may warrant OSC activation.

OPEN ITEMS - RESPONSES (2)
 
===Response===
Braidwood Station has assigned three (3) Shift Foremen to each shift.
This helps ensure manning requirements are met in the event of an emergency. The Shift Foremen from the unaffected unit are assigned Fire Chief and OSC Director responsibilities. If a GSEP condition were to occur and a Shift Foreman were unavailable to act as OSC Director, the Rad / Chem Foreman as OSC Supervisor would step in and fulfill the OSC Director responsibilities in accordance with the implementing procedures. All Rad / Chem Foremen have been trained to be OSC Directors in the event the Shift Foreman is unable to fill the position.
Further, there are three fire protection personnel who could be available to relieve the Shift Foremen at the fire scene. At least one Radwaste Foreman is also available to assist, where needed, in an emergency. This would free the Shift Foreman of the inplant duties and allow him to assume OSC responsibilities.
Lastly, if the event were to occur during off-hours, staff augmentation includes Rad / Chem support personnel, 2 at the Alert, 4 at Site or General Emergency. This list includes all the Rad / Chem Foremen. Upon their arrival in the OSC, one support person is assigned to assist in the OSC.
Should the Shift Foreman be unavailable, and the on-shift Rad / Chem Foreman be the OSC Director, the support person fulfills the OSC Supervisor responsibilities, thereby ensuring adequate OSC supervision.
Although the Braidwood Technical Specifications and FSAR requirements state only one Shift Foreman, this is the minimum legal manning requirement for operating the unit. To restate, it is the intent.of Braidwood to staff three Shift Foremen on each shift to ensure adkuate coverage in an emergency.
No further actions are warranted at this time. This item is considered complete.
I Open Item #4 Prior to Fuel Load, the GSEP Telephone Directory must be revised to include a priority notification scheme for members of the off-site emergency organization who would report to the Mazon EOF following an appropriate emergency declaration at the Braidwood Station.

Open Item #3 Prior to Fuel Load, the applicant must re-evaluate the Shift Foreman's l

multiple emergency assignments to ensure manning requirements are met during fires and/or other GSEP events which may warrant OSC activation.

OPEN ITEMS - RESPONSES (2)

Response

Braidwood Station has assigned three (3) Shift Foremen to each shift.

This helps ensure manning requirements are met in the event of an emergency. The Shift Foremen from the unaffected unit are assigned Fire Chief and OSC Director responsibilities. If a GSEP condition were to occur and a Shift Foreman were unavailable to act as OSC Director, the Rad / Chem Foreman as OSC Supervisor would step in and fulfill the OSC Director responsibilities in accordance with the implementing procedures. All Rad / Chem Foremen have been trained to be OSC Directors in the event the Shift Foreman is unable to fill the position.

Further, there are three fire protection personnel who could be available to relieve the Shift Foremen at the fire scene. At least one Radwaste Foreman is also available to assist, where needed, in an emergency. This would free the Shift Foreman of the inplant duties and allow him to assume OSC responsibilities.

Lastly, if the event were to occur during off-hours, staff augmentation includes Rad / Chem support personnel, 2 at the Alert, 4 at Site or General Emergency. This list includes all the Rad / Chem Foremen. Upon their arrival in the OSC, one support person is assigned to assist in the OSC.

Should the Shift Foreman be unavailable, and the on-shift Rad / Chem Foreman be the OSC Director, the support person fulfills the OSC Supervisor responsibilities, thereby ensuring adequate OSC supervision.

Although the Braidwood Technical Specifications and FSAR requirements state only one Shift Foreman, this is the minimum legal manning requirement for operating the unit. To restate, it is the intent.of Braidwood to staff three Shift Foremen on each shift to ensure adkuate coverage in an emergency.

No further actions are warranted at this time. This item is considered complete.

Response

"A PWR steam line break with greater than 50 gpm primary to secondary leakage and indication of fuel damage" is listed in NUREG 0654 as a Site Area Emergency. Condition 16, 17, or 19 could be used to classify the described concern as a Site Area Emergency. Condition 17 specifically addresses the NUREG example. In addition, the Braidwood GSEP Annex and procedures allow a higher classification, i.e. General Emergency, to be declared if more than one distinctive EAL of the same classification level is reached, e.g. two EALs for Site Emergency.
