The inspectors also reviewed records of other drills and exercises conducted in 2005, 2006, and 2007, to verify that those drills scenarios were sufficiently different from the scenario used in the August 14, 2007 exercise. |
| | |
| | The inspectors evaluated the licensees exercise performance, focusing on the risk-significant activities of emergency classification, notification, and protective action decision making, as well as implementation of accident mitigation strategies in the following emergency response facilities: |
| | C Control Room Simulator (CRS); |
| | C Technical Support Center (TSC); and C Emergency Operations Facility (EOF). |
| | |
| | The inspectors also assessed the licensees recognition of abnormal plant conditions, transfer of responsibilities between facilities, internal communications, interfaces with offsite officials, readiness of emergency facilities and related equipment, and overall implementation of the licensees emergency plan. |
| | |
| | The inspectors attended post-exercise critiques in the CRS, TSC, and EOF to evaluate the licensees initial self-assessment of its exercise performance. The inspectors later met with the licensees lead exercise evaluators and managers to obtain the licensees findings and assessments of its exercise participants performances.

SUBJECT:
D. C. COOK NUCLEAR POWER PLANT, UNITS 1 AND 2 BIENNIAL EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS EXERCISE BASELINE INSPECTION REPORT 05000315/2007502(DRS);
05000316/2007502(DRS)
Dear Mr. Nazar:
On August 17, 2007, the U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed an inspection at your D. C. Cook Nuclear Power Plant, Units 1 and 2. The enclosed report documents the inspection findings, which were discussed on August 17, 2007, with Mr. M. Peifer and other members of your staff.
The inspection examined activities conducted under your license as they relate to safety and compliance with the Commissions rules and regulations and with the conditions of your license.
The inspectors reviewed selected procedures and records, observed activities, and interviewed personnel. Specifically, this inspection focused on emergency preparedness, including your staffs determinations of performance indicators for the Emergency Preparedness Cornerstone.
On the basis of the results of this inspection, no findings of significance were identified.
In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390 of the NRC's "Rules of Practice," a copy of this letter and its enclosure will be available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public Document Room or from the Publicly Available Records System (PARS) component of NRC's Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS), accessible from the NRC Web site at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html (the Public Electronic Reading Room).
Sincerely,
/RA/

SUMMARY OF FINDINGS
IR 05000315/2007502; 05000316/2007502; on 08/13/2007-08/17/2007; D. C. Cook Nuclear
Power Plant, Units 1 and 2, Biennial Emergency Preparedness Exercise Baseline Inspection.
The report covers a 1 week baseline inspection by one regional emergency preparedness inspector, a resident inspector, and a reactor engineer. The inspection focused on the Emergency Preparedness Cornerstone in the Reactor Safety strategic performance area during the biennial emergency preparedness exercise. This inspection also included a review of records related to the three emergency preparedness performance indicators for the period April 1, 2006 through June 30, 2007.
The NRCs program for overseeing the safe operation of commercial nuclear power reactors is described in NUREG-1649, Reactor Oversight Process, Revision 4, dated December 2006.
A. Inspector-Identified and Self-Revealed Findings None.
Licensee-Identified Violations
None.
REPORT DETAILS
REACTOR SAFETY
Cornerstone: Emergency Preparedness
1EP1 Exercise Evaluation
Main article: IP 71114.01
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors reviewed the August 14, 2007, biennial emergency preparedness exercises objectives and scenario to ensure that the exercise would acceptably test major elements of the licensees emergency plan and to verify that the exercises simulated problems provided an acceptable framework to support demonstration of the licensees capability to implement its plan. The inspectors also reviewed records of other drills and exercises conducted in 2005, 2006, and 2007, to verify that those drills scenarios were sufficiently different from the scenario used in the August 14, 2007 exercise.
The inspectors evaluated the licensees exercise performance, focusing on the risk-significant activities of emergency classification, notification, and protective action decision making, as well as implementation of accident mitigation strategies in the following emergency response facilities:
C Control Room Simulator (CRS);
C Technical Support Center (TSC); and C Emergency Operations Facility (EOF).
The inspectors also assessed the licensees recognition of abnormal plant conditions, transfer of responsibilities between facilities, internal communications, interfaces with offsite officials, readiness of emergency facilities and related equipment, and overall implementation of the licensees emergency plan.
The inspectors attended post-exercise critiques in the CRS, TSC, and EOF to evaluate the licensees initial self-assessment of its exercise performance. The inspectors later met with the licensees lead exercise evaluators and managers to obtain the licensees findings and assessments of its exercise participants performances. These self-assessments were then compared with the inspectors independent observations and assessments to assess the licensees ability to adequately critique its exercise performance.
These activities completed one of one inspection sample.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.
OTHER ACTIVITIES
4OA1 Performance Indicator (PI) Verification
Cornerstone: Emergency Preparedness
.1 Reactor Safety Strategic Area
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors reviewed the licensees records associated with each of the three emergency preparedness PIs to verify that the licensees program was implemented consistent with the industry guidelines in the applicable revision of Nuclear Energy Institute Publication No. 99-02, Regulatory Assessment Performance Indicator Guideline, and related licensee procedures. Specifically, licensee records related to the performance of the Alert and Notification System (ANS), key Emergency Response Organization (ERO) members drill participation, and Drill and Exercise Performance (DEP) were reviewed to verify the accuracy and completeness of the PI data submitted to NRC for the period from April 1, 2006, through June 30, 2007. The following three PIs were reviewed:
Common
- ERO Drill Participation; and
These activities completed three of three PI samples.
b. Findings
No findings of significance were identified.
The inspectors noted that the licensees submittal for the Alert and Notification System Reliability Performance Indicator was in error because the fourth quarter 2007 data submittal indicated 141 sirens of 210 sirens were tested successfully instead of 140 of 209 sirens tested successfully. The regularly scheduled test for May 5, 2007, had only 69 sirens tested because one siren was not tested because of a local parade. The siren taken out-of-service for the regularly scheduled monthly siren test was tested on May 4, 2007, however, this siren test has to be counted for the NRCs ANS Performance Indicator as a non-opportunity per the guidance in NEI 99-02, Revision 5, Regularly scheduled tests missed for reasons other than siren unavailability (e.g.,
out-of-service for planned maintenance or repair) should be considered non-opportunities. This error was entered into the licensees corrective action system as AR-00817132, PI Data Submitted Late to the NRC.
4OA5 Other
.1 (Closed) Severity Level III Violation 05000315/316/2006502-01: A Severity Level III
Violation was identified for the licensees failure to maintain a standard emergency action level scheme.
The inspectors reviewed the licensees action request 00801675 which included causes, extent of condition, and corrective actions. No concerns or issues were identified and appropriate corrective actions have been implemented. This violation is closed.
4OA6 Meetings
.1 Exit Meeting
On August 17, 2007, at the conclusion of the on-site inspection activities, the inspectors presented preliminary inspection results to Mr. M. Peifer and other members of licensee management. The inspectors asked the licensee whether any materials examined during the inspection should be considered proprietary. No proprietary information was identified.
