Box 411 / Burlington, KS 66839 / Phone: (620) 364-8831An Equal Opportunity Employer M/F/HC/VET Attachment to RA 15-0002Page 1 of 4Summary of Changes to the Wolf Creek Generating Station (WCGS)Radiological Emergency Response Plan (RERP)1. Procedure AP 06-002, "Radiological Emergency Response Plan (RERP)," Rev. 16Wolf Creek Nuclear Operating Corporation (WCNOC) replaced the former near-site Emergency Operations Facility (EOF) with a new EOF, which contains theAlternate Technical Support Center (TSC) and Alternate Operations SupportCenter (OSC) required by 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix E, Section IV.E.8.d. Thenew EOF is approximately 12 miles from WCGS and became operational onDecember 9, 2014.These changes affect sections 6.4, 6.6, 6.12, 6.14, 6.16 and Figure 7 of theWCGS RERP. These changes are being made to ensure compliance with:1. 10 CFR 50, Appendix E, Section IV.E.8.b that establishes distancecriteria for a licensee's EOF. The establishment of a new EOF within10 to 25 miles of the nuclear reactor does not require a backupfacility.2. 10 CFR 50, Appendix E, Section IV.E.8.d that requires the licensee toidentify an alternate facility that would be accessible even if the site ifunder threat of or experiencing hostile action with the capability tofunction as a staging area for augmentation of Emergency ResponseOrganization (ERO) staff to minimize delays in emergency responseand provide for a swift coordinated augmented response.These changes to the WCGS RERP also affect the following emergencyplanning standards:1. 10 CFR 50.47(b)(1)a. "Primary responsibilities for emergency response by thenuclear facility licensee and by State and local organizationswithin the Emergency Planning Zones have been assigned,the emergency responsibilities of the various supportingorganizations have been specifically established, and eachprincipal response organization has staff to respond and toaugment its initial response on a continuous basis."b. WCNOC response: TSC and OSC personnel reporting to theAlternate TSC and Alternate OSC have the sameresponsibilities as personnel responding to the primary TSC.Staffing and augmentation also remain the same as theprimary TSC.
Attachment to RA 15-0002Page 2 of 42. 10 CFR 50.47(b)(5)a. "Procedures have been established for notification, by thelicensee, of State and local response organizations and fornotification of emergency personnel by all organizations; thecontent of initial and followup messages to responseorganizations and the public has been established; and meansto provide early notification and clear instruction to thepopulace within the plume exposure pathway EmergencyPlanning Zone have been established."b. WCNOC response: The notification procedures for notifyingstate and local governmental agencies are not changing. Inaddition to radios and telephones, the off-site communicationsroom is also equipped with a satellite telephone and anexternal antenna to provide an additional method ofcommunication. No changes have been made to the AlertNotification System or the public information processes.3. 10 CFR 50.47(b)(6)a. "Provisions exist for prompt communications among principalresponse organizations to emergency personnel and to thepublic."b. WCNOC response: Communication capabilities at theAlternate TSC and Alternate OSC include a telephone systemusing a Voice Over Internet Protocol (VoIP), which transmitscall using a digital signal over an Internet Protocol network;telephone lines that connect directly to the local publictelephone system; portable and base station radios;computers; facsimile machines and satellite telephones.Back-up electrical power is provided by a stand-by dieselgenerator and a back-up universal power supply providespower until the diesel generator supplies power to the EOF,Alternate TSC and Alternate OSC.4. 10 CFR 50.47(b)(8)a. "Adequate emergency facilities and equipment to support theemergency response are provided and maintained."b. WCNOC response: TSC and OSC personnel reporting to theAlternate TSC and Alternate OSC are provided with adequatefacilities and equipment to perform their functions inaccordance with regulatory requirements. The Alternate TSCand Alternate OSC are provided dedicated space within theEOF. Communication capabilities at the Alternate TSC andAlternate OSC include a telephone system using a VoIP,which transmits call using a digital signal over an InternetProtocol network; telephone lines that connect directly to the Attachment to RA 15-0002Page 3 of 4local public telephone system; portable and base stationradios; computers; facsimile machines and satellitetelephones. Back-up electrical power is provided by a stand-by diesel generator and a back-up universal power supplyprovides power until the diesel generator supplies power to theEOF, Alternate TSC and Alternate OSC. Off-site notificationscan be completed using telephones within the Alternate TSCand Alternate OSC or by using equipment in the EOFCommunications Room. Engineering assessment activitiescan be performed at the Alternate TSC and Alternate OSC.The document storage room provides access to the samereference materials as the primary TSC. Computers in theAlternate TSC provide access to the same assessment andplanning programs as available in the primary TSC. A musterarea, which can be used for briefings and team preparation, isprovided for OSC personnel.5. 10 CFR 50.47(b)(9)a. "Adequate methods, systems, and equipment for assessingand monitoring actual or potential offsite consequences of aradiological emergency condition are in use."b. WCNOC response: Plant information can be monitored at theAlternate TSC and Alternate OSC by using *RTIME Viewer. If*RTIME Viewer is not available, plant information would beacquired from the Control Room. Computers in the AlternateTSC provide access to the same assessment and planningprograms as are available in the primary TSC. Doseassessment software is available.6. 10 CFR 50.47(b)(10)a. "A range of protective actions has been developed for theplume exposure pathway EPZ for emergency workers and thepublic. In developing this range of actions, consideration hasbeen given to evacuation, sheltering, and, as a supplement tothese, the prophylactic use of potassium iodide (KI), asappropriate. Evacuation time estimates have been developedby applicants and licensees. Licensees shall update theevacuation time estimates on a periodic basis. Guidelines forthe choice of protective actions during an emergency,consistent with Federal guidance, are developed and in place,and protective actions for the ingestion exposure pathway EPZappropriate to the locale have been developed."
Attachment to RA 15-0002Page 4 of 4b. WCNOC response: No changes to Protective ActionRecommendations (PARs) have been made. The AlternateTSC and Alternate OSC is a dedicated space within the EOF.The EOF is located approximately 12 miles from WCGS andresources can be rapidly deployed to WCGS when conditionsallow access. The EOF is located beyond the locations atwhich roadblocks would be established by local lawenforcement personnel in the event of a hostile action atWCGS.Step 6.4.6.2 of procedure AP 06-002 was revised to provide additional clarification onthe location of first aid kits, emergency equipment and supplies. Step E.3.1 ofattachment E to procedure AP 06-002 clarifies wording in the EPZ/Kansas ProtectiveAction Guides. These changes do not change any of the capabilities or functionsdescribed in the WCGS RERP and do not reduce the effectiveness of the WCGSRERP.Sections 6.17, 6.18, and 6.19 of procedure AP 06-002 were revised in accordance with10 CFR Part 50, Appendix E, Section IV.F, "Training." These changes provideinstruction to submit exercise scenarios to the NRC at least 60 days before the exercisedate and provide instruction to include the key principle functional areas of emergencyplanning and a wide spectrum of events and conditions in emergency planning exercisescenarios.These changes also comply with 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix E, Section IV.F.2.g byrequiring correction of any weaknesses of deficiencies identified in critiques ofexercises, drills or training; with 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix E, Section IV.F.2.i byproviding enhanced guidance for exercise scenario developers to use a wide spectrumof radiological releases and events, including hostile actions; and with 10 CFR Part 50,Appendix E, Section IV.F.2.j by defining the variety of content required to be included inexercises over the eight-year period and by specifying the records to be maintained incompliance with these requirements. These changes to procedure AP 06-002 enhanceguidance for the training, drill and exercise program, conform to regulatory requirementsand, therefore, do not reduce the effectiveness of the WCGS RERP.

TheRERP is sensitive to a broad spectrum of emergency conditionswhich have been postulated for a commercial pressurized waterreactor. Although the probability of an accident is low, theRERP is maintained to assure the safety and well-being of plantpersonnel and members of the public in the vicinity of WCGS.2.2 The RERP interfaces with several related documents such as theAdministrative Procedures (APs) and Emergency Plan Procedures(EPPs). Detailed instructions necessary to support the RERP areincluded in these procedures and are available for training,drill, and actual emergency use. The RERP references the WCGSFire and Security Plans, Vendor contingency plans as well asthose of medical support facilities and the Institute of NuclearPower Operations (INPO). This document has been designed tocoordinate with the State Emergency Operations Plan and theCoffey County Contingency Plan for Incidents InvolvingCommercial Nuclear Power, which govern the activities of thesesupport groups in response to events at WCGS.2.3 The RERP is based on a graduated, escalating level of emergencyresponse which is activated as conditions at the plant warrant.This approach provides the flexibility necessary to ensureadequate emergency response to a spectrum of possible events.The RERP is designed to control emergency response activitiesranging from initial event detection, classification of theevent, notification of off-site authorities and providingprotective action recommendations to the county and state.2.4 The RERP reflects three chief phases of activation. First theresponse is dominated solely by the site staff, next the onsiteand off-site public information facilities are jointlyactivated, and finally the recovery efforts are performed bysite, public information facilities, vendor, and other criticalsupport groups.

6.0 PROCEDURE6.1 Site Description6.1.1 WCGS is a Pressurized Water Reactor (PWR) nucleargenerating station operated by Wolf Creek NuclearOperating Corporation (WCNOC).6.1.2 WCGS is located near the center of Coffey County,Kansas (KS), about 3.5 miles northeast of Burlington,the county seat, 90 miles southwest of Kansas City, MOand 55 miles south of the state capital Topeka, KS.6.1.3 The immediate site environs are sparsely populated.Burlington and New Strawn are the major populationcenters. John Redmond Reservoir (JRR) and CoffeyCounty Lake (CCL) are the major recreationalfacilities. Most of the seasonal or daily shifts inpopulation are associated with recreational areasaround JRR and CCL. Approximately 70% of the annualvisitors to the John Redmond Reservoir and CoffeyCounty Lake come to the area during the summer months.6.1.4 The 10-mile Plume Exposure Emergency Planning Zone(EPZ) is a major consideration in the RERP.Approximately 99% of the 10-mile EPZ is located withinCoffey County and 1% within Anderson County. The EPZhas been defined by developing sub-zones based uponnatural and political subdivisions. These have beendescribed for evacuation zones approximating 2, 5 and10-mile radial rings. This distribution allows readyidentification of areas to be evacuated and facilitatespublic recognition of subzones in which they work orreside. FIGURE 1, EFFECTIVE 10 MILE EPZ, SUBZONES ANDEVACUATION ROUTES, presents the 2, 5 and 10-mile radialzones and subzones which provides the basis for thedesign of an alert and notification system.6.1.5 The total population of the effective 10-mile EPZ isshown in ATTACHMENT B, SUBZONE EVACUATION TIMES. Withthe exception of Burlington and the other populationcenters listed in ATTACHMENT A, EFFECTIVE 10-MILEPOPULATION CENTERS, the population density of theeffective 10-mile EPZ is approximately 4.4 persons persquare mile. Other than the WCGS, there are no largeindustries in the area.
6.1.6 Principal geographical features within the effective10-mile EPZ are the Neosho River, JRR, and CCL. Theland around WCGS is flat with scattered low hills.Dense vegetation in the form of large trees exists onthe banks of the river and in recreational areas.There are no topographical features within theeffective 10-mile EPZ that significantly influence thedesign of the Alert and Notification System.1. Sparsely populated farm land comprises the majorityof the effective 10-mile EPZ.2. The site also demonstrates favorable topography,demography, and meteorology, which have beenfactored into many analyses that support theemergency planning effort.3. The Neosho River is oriented northwest-southeastand extends to within 3 miles southwest of theplant.4. The main dam of the John Redmond Reservoir is 3.5miles west of the plant. This water conservationpool is approximately 4 miles in diameter with asurface area of 15 square miles.5. The Coffey County Lake is approximately 7 mileslong with a normal surface area of 8 square miles.6.1.7 The meteorological conditions within the effective 10-mile EPZ are characterized by a distinctly continentalclimate with warm humid summers and highly variablewinter weather. Maritime tropical air originating overthe Gulf of Mexico is the dominant air mass from Junethrough August. This air mass is quite humid resultingin considerable thunderstorm activity. From Novemberthrough February, continental polar air dominates theclimate.6.2 Emergency Classifications6.2.1 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix E, Section IV.C, requires aclassification scheme of four specific levels ofemergencies. NUMARC/NESP 007 is identified withinREGULATORY GUIDE 1.101 and is considered by the NRC asan acceptable alternative method to that described inAppendix 1 to NUREG 0654. [Commitment Step 3.2.1]
6.2.2 An emergency class is a qualitative estimate of thestatus of the plant. Inputs to the emergencyclassification system include the status of plantsystems and the levels of radiation in plant areas andeffluents. However, an emergency class does not give aqualitative or quantitative estimate of the subsequentstatus of the plant or radioactive release.6.2.3 The emergency classes are used by off-site authoritiesto determine the level of preplanned actions to betaken by their emergency organizations. Protectiveactions taken on behalf of members of the public arethe legal responsibility of state and local government.1. The functional interfaces between WCGS and otheremergency organizations are shown in FIGURE 6,EMERGENCY ORGANIZATIONS INTERFACES.6.2.4 The classification system used at WCGS is an approachthat ranges from primarily event-based for UnusualEvent to primarily symptom or barrier-based for GeneralEmergencies. This is to better assure that timelyrecognition and notification occurs, that eventsoccurring during refueling and cold shutdown areappropriately covered, and that multiple events can beeffectively treated.6.2.5 The Emergency Action Levels (EAL) are contained in APF06-002-01, EMERGENCY ACTION LEVELS. The EAL have beendeveloped and agreed upon by WCGS, the State of Kansasand Coffey County and approved by the NRC. [CommitmentStep 3.2.1]1. The EAL are reviewed annually by the State andCounty.6.2.6 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix E, Section IV.C.2, requireslicensees to establish and maintain the capability toassess, classify, and declare an emergency conditionwithin 15 minutes after the availability of indicationsto plant operators that an emergency action level hasbeen exceeded and shall promptly declare the emergency.
6.2.7 Each emergency classification causes certain actions tohappen such as notifications, activation andevacuation.1. An NUE requires plant personnel, the County andState to be notified. No evacuation or activationrequired.2. An Alert requires plant personnel, the County andState to be notified. The Emergency ResponseOrganization (ERO) is called out and the emergencyfacilities are activated. Accountability may beperformed if necessary.3.

Revision: 16 RADIOLOGICAL EMERGENCY RESPONSE PLAN AP 06-002(RERP)Information Use Page 18 of 906.3.7 The Emergency Dose Calculation Program (EDCP) is acomputerized method to provide dose estimates usingactual or estimated meteorological data (wind speed,wind direction, degree of cloud cover, day or nightdetermination) and radiological effluent data (actualmeasurements, estimated values based upon USAR sourceterms, or field measurements). EDCP is designed to:[Reference Step 3.1.9]1. Use radiological and meteorological information toprovide an estimate of off-site exposure.2. Be capable of estimating release rates and off-siteexposures from off-site field team data.3. Be capable of estimating release rates and off-siteexposures for an unmonitored, pressure drivencontainment release using the Containment High AreaRadiation Monitor readings and changes incontainment pressure.4. Off-site dose predictions when combined with actualrelease duration information and meteorologicaldata during an event, provide sufficient data toestimate the cumulative population dose resultingfrom the event. The actual off-site populationdose is confirmed by off-site monitoring, samplingand analysis.6.3.8 Radiological monitoring teams have a goal of 60 minutesfrom the declaration of Alert or greater emergency tobe ready for deployment to confirm effluent readingsand verify plume emission and locations.6.3.9 FIGURE 7, WCGS EMERGENCY RESPONSE FACILITIES, providesa view of the off-site area, showing the location ofthe EOF.

The Emergency Managers are ultimatelyresponsible for exposure control and can permit thereceiving of up to 5 REM per person for workactivities, 10 REM for saving valuable equipment and 25REM for lifesaving after consulting with the NRC, iffeasible. Exposure which might exceed 25 REM, forlifesaving activities, must be approved by an EmergencyManager. Although EPA and NRC do not provide specificguidance for the upper bounds for lifesaving exposure,WCGS has chosen to use the following criteria:
: 1. Emergency Managers shall not knowingly permit anindividual's exposure to exceed 25 REM, unless itis for lifesaving activities or protection of largepopulations. Emergency Managers shall notknowingly permit an individual to enter a high dosearea if the projected Total Effective DoseEquivalent (TEDE) is expected to exceed 75 REM.o Those individuals designated to exceed 25 REMmust be volunteers and be fully aware of therisks involved.2. Emergency Managers should obtain the advice andconcurrence of the Radiological Coordinators inapproving additional exposure.6.3.16 Under emergency conditions, normal exposure controlsare maintained. This is ensured by the on-shift HealthPhysics Technician (HP) in the Control Room, theRadiological Coordinators in the TSC and EOF.6.3.17 The Radiological Coordinator has responsibility formaintaining exposure control for site activities,including establishment of access control at alternatelocations. Strict exposure control of individualspassing through the access point is maintained on a 24-hour-per-day basis.6.3.18 In order to enhance the exposure control process and toprovide dosimetry for an expanded number of people,dosimetry vendors are available to expedite shipment ofextra dosimetry devices to supplement existing onsitesupplies of dosimetry equipment and to supply personnelto assist in onsite appraisal of exposures.6.3.19 When activated, the Emergency Response Team coversemergency sampling, surveying, analysis, and hazardevaluation.6.3.20 Personnel, instruments, and equipment are to bemonitored at the access control point. Personnel andequipment decontamination is controlled in accordancewith WCGS procedures.6.3.21 WCGS maintains control over the Exclusion Area asnecessary, restoring affected onsite areas toacceptable conditions for access.1.

Box 411 / Burlington, KS 66839 / Phone: (620) 364-8831An Equal Opportunity Employer M/F/HC/VET Attachment to RA 15-0002Page 1 of 4Summary of Changes to the Wolf Creek Generating Station (WCGS)Radiological Emergency Response Plan (RERP)1. Procedure AP 06-002, "Radiological Emergency Response Plan (RERP)," Rev. 16Wolf Creek Nuclear Operating Corporation (WCNOC) replaced the former near-site Emergency Operations Facility (EOF) with a new EOF, which contains theAlternate Technical Support Center (TSC) and Alternate Operations SupportCenter (OSC) required by 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix E, Section IV.E.8.d. Thenew EOF is approximately 12 miles from WCGS and became operational onDecember 9, 2014.These changes affect sections 6.4, 6.6, 6.12, 6.14, 6.16 and Figure 7 of theWCGS RERP. These changes are being made to ensure compliance with:1. 10 CFR 50, Appendix E, Section IV.E.8.b that establishes distancecriteria for a licensee's EOF. The establishment of a new EOF within10 to 25 miles of the nuclear reactor does not require a backupfacility.2. 10 CFR 50, Appendix E, Section IV.E.8.d that requires the licensee toidentify an alternate facility that would be accessible even if the site ifunder threat of or experiencing hostile action with the capability tofunction as a staging area for augmentation of Emergency ResponseOrganization (ERO) staff to minimize delays in emergency responseand provide for a swift coordinated augmented response.These changes to the WCGS RERP also affect the following emergencyplanning standards:1. 10 CFR 50.47(b)(1)a. "Primary responsibilities for emergency response by thenuclear facility licensee and by State and local organizationswithin the Emergency Planning Zones have been assigned,the emergency responsibilities of the various supportingorganizations have been specifically established, and eachprincipal response organization has staff to respond and toaugment its initial response on a continuous basis."b. WCNOC response: TSC and OSC personnel reporting to theAlternate TSC and Alternate OSC have the sameresponsibilities as personnel responding to the primary TSC.Staffing and augmentation also remain the same as theprimary TSC.

Attachment to RA 15-0002Page 2 of 42. 10 CFR 50.47(b)(5)a. "Procedures have been established for notification, by thelicensee, of State and local response organizations and fornotification of emergency personnel by all organizations; thecontent of initial and followup messages to responseorganizations and the public has been established; and meansto provide early notification and clear instruction to thepopulace within the plume exposure pathway EmergencyPlanning Zone have been established."b. WCNOC response: The notification procedures for notifyingstate and local governmental agencies are not changing. Inaddition to radios and telephones, the off-site communicationsroom is also equipped with a satellite telephone and anexternal antenna to provide an additional method ofcommunication. No changes have been made to the AlertNotification System or the public information processes.3. 10 CFR 50.47(b)(6)a. "Provisions exist for prompt communications among principalresponse organizations to emergency personnel and to thepublic."b. WCNOC response: Communication capabilities at theAlternate TSC and Alternate OSC include a telephone systemusing a Voice Over Internet Protocol (VoIP), which transmitscall using a digital signal over an Internet Protocol network;telephone lines that connect directly to the local publictelephone system; portable and base station radios;computers; facsimile machines and satellite telephones.Back-up electrical power is provided by a stand-by dieselgenerator and a back-up universal power supply providespower until the diesel generator supplies power to the EOF,Alternate TSC and Alternate OSC.4. 10 CFR 50.47(b)(8)a. "Adequate emergency facilities and equipment to support theemergency response are provided and maintained."b. WCNOC response: TSC and OSC personnel reporting to theAlternate TSC and Alternate OSC are provided with adequatefacilities and equipment to perform their functions inaccordance with regulatory requirements. The Alternate TSCand Alternate OSC are provided dedicated space within theEOF. Communication capabilities at the Alternate TSC andAlternate OSC include a telephone system using a VoIP,which transmits call using a digital signal over an InternetProtocol network; telephone lines that connect directly to the Attachment to RA 15-0002Page 3 of 4local public telephone system; portable and base stationradios; computers; facsimile machines and satellitetelephones. Back-up electrical power is provided by a stand-by diesel generator and a back-up universal power supplyprovides power until the diesel generator supplies power to theEOF, Alternate TSC and Alternate OSC. Off-site notificationscan be completed using telephones within the Alternate TSCand Alternate OSC or by using equipment in the EOFCommunications Room. Engineering assessment activitiescan be performed at the Alternate TSC and Alternate OSC.The document storage room provides access to the samereference materials as the primary TSC. Computers in theAlternate TSC provide access to the same assessment andplanning programs as available in the primary TSC. A musterarea, which can be used for briefings and team preparation, isprovided for OSC personnel.5. 10 CFR 50.47(b)(9)a. "Adequate methods, systems, and equipment for assessingand monitoring actual or potential offsite consequences of aradiological emergency condition are in use."b. WCNOC response: Plant information can be monitored at theAlternate TSC and Alternate OSC by using *RTIME Viewer. If*RTIME Viewer is not available, plant information would beacquired from the Control Room. Computers in the AlternateTSC provide access to the same assessment and planningprograms as are available in the primary TSC. Doseassessment software is available.6. 10 CFR 50.47(b)(10)a. "A range of protective actions has been developed for theplume exposure pathway EPZ for emergency workers and thepublic. In developing this range of actions, consideration hasbeen given to evacuation, sheltering, and, as a supplement tothese, the prophylactic use of potassium iodide (KI), asappropriate. Evacuation time estimates have been developedby applicants and licensees. Licensees shall update theevacuation time estimates on a periodic basis. Guidelines forthe choice of protective actions during an emergency,consistent with Federal guidance, are developed and in place,and protective actions for the ingestion exposure pathway EPZappropriate to the locale have been developed."

Attachment to RA 15-0002Page 4 of 4b. WCNOC response: No changes to Protective ActionRecommendations (PARs) have been made. The AlternateTSC and Alternate OSC is a dedicated space within the EOF.The EOF is located approximately 12 miles from WCGS andresources can be rapidly deployed to WCGS when conditionsallow access. The EOF is located beyond the locations atwhich roadblocks would be established by local lawenforcement personnel in the event of a hostile action atWCGS.Step 6.4.6.2 of procedure AP 06-002 was revised to provide additional clarification onthe location of first aid kits, emergency equipment and supplies. Step E.3.1 ofattachment E to procedure AP 06-002 clarifies wording in the EPZ/Kansas ProtectiveAction Guides. These changes do not change any of the capabilities or functionsdescribed in the WCGS RERP and do not reduce the effectiveness of the WCGSRERP.Sections 6.17, 6.18, and 6.19 of procedure AP 06-002 were revised in accordance with10 CFR Part 50, Appendix E,Section IV.F, "Training." These changes provideinstruction to submit exercise scenarios to the NRC at least 60 days before the exercisedate and provide instruction to include the key principle functional areas of emergencyplanning and a wide spectrum of events and conditions in emergency planning exercisescenarios.These changes also comply with 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix E, Section IV.F.2.g byrequiring correction of any weaknesses of deficiencies identified in critiques ofexercises, drills or training; with 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix E, Section IV.F.2.i byproviding enhanced guidance for exercise scenario developers to use a wide spectrumof radiological releases and events, including hostile actions; and with 10 CFR Part 50,Appendix E,Section IV.F.2.j by defining the variety of content required to be included inexercises over the eight-year period and by specifying the records to be maintained incompliance with these requirements. These changes to procedure AP 06-002 enhanceguidance for the training, drill and exercise program, conform to regulatory requirementsand, therefore, do not reduce the effectiveness of the WCGS RERP.

TheRERP is sensitive to a broad spectrum of emergency conditionswhich have been postulated for a commercial pressurized waterreactor. Although the probability of an accident is low, theRERP is maintained to assure the safety and well-being of plantpersonnel and members of the public in the vicinity of WCGS.2.2 The RERP interfaces with several related documents such as theAdministrative Procedures (APs) and Emergency Plan Procedures(EPPs). Detailed instructions necessary to support the RERP areincluded in these procedures and are available for training,drill, and actual emergency use. The RERP references the WCGSFire and Security Plans, Vendor contingency plans as well asthose of medical support facilities and the Institute of NuclearPower Operations (INPO). This document has been designed tocoordinate with the State Emergency Operations Plan and theCoffey County Contingency Plan for Incidents InvolvingCommercial Nuclear Power, which govern the activities of thesesupport groups in response to events at WCGS.2.3 The RERP is based on a graduated, escalating level of emergencyresponse which is activated as conditions at the plant warrant.This approach provides the flexibility necessary to ensureadequate emergency response to a spectrum of possible events.The RERP is designed to control emergency response activitiesranging from initial event detection, classification of theevent, notification of off-site authorities and providingprotective action recommendations to the county and state.2.4 The RERP reflects three chief phases of activation. First theresponse is dominated solely by the site staff, next the onsiteand off-site public information facilities are jointlyactivated, and finally the recovery efforts are performed bysite, public information facilities, vendor, and other criticalsupport groups.

6.0 PROCEDURE6.1 Site Description6.1.1 WCGS is a Pressurized Water Reactor (PWR) nucleargenerating station operated by Wolf Creek NuclearOperating Corporation (WCNOC).6.1.2 WCGS is located near the center of Coffey County,Kansas (KS), about 3.5 miles northeast of Burlington,the county seat, 90 miles southwest of Kansas City, MOand 55 miles south of the state capital Topeka, KS.6.1.3 The immediate site environs are sparsely populated.Burlington and New Strawn are the major populationcenters. John Redmond Reservoir (JRR) and CoffeyCounty Lake (CCL) are the major recreationalfacilities. Most of the seasonal or daily shifts inpopulation are associated with recreational areasaround JRR and CCL. Approximately 70% of the annualvisitors to the John Redmond Reservoir and CoffeyCounty Lake come to the area during the summer months.6.1.4 The 10-mile Plume Exposure Emergency Planning Zone(EPZ) is a major consideration in the RERP.Approximately 99% of the 10-mile EPZ is located withinCoffey County and 1% within Anderson County. The EPZhas been defined by developing sub-zones based uponnatural and political subdivisions. These have beendescribed for evacuation zones approximating 2, 5 and10-mile radial rings. This distribution allows readyidentification of areas to be evacuated and facilitatespublic recognition of subzones in which they work orreside. FIGURE 1, EFFECTIVE 10 MILE EPZ, SUBZONES ANDEVACUATION ROUTES, presents the 2, 5 and 10-mile radialzones and subzones which provides the basis for thedesign of an alert and notification system.6.1.5 The total population of the effective 10-mile EPZ isshown in ATTACHMENT B, SUBZONE EVACUATION TIMES. Withthe exception of Burlington and the other populationcenters listed in ATTACHMENT A, EFFECTIVE 10-MILEPOPULATION CENTERS, the population density of theeffective 10-mile EPZ is approximately 4.4 persons persquare mile. Other than the WCGS, there are no largeindustries in the area.

6.1.6 Principal geographical features within the effective10-mile EPZ are the Neosho River, JRR, and CCL. Theland around WCGS is flat with scattered low hills.Dense vegetation in the form of large trees exists onthe banks of the river and in recreational areas.There are no topographical features within theeffective 10-mile EPZ that significantly influence thedesign of the Alert and Notification System.1. Sparsely populated farm land comprises the majorityof the effective 10-mile EPZ.2. The site also demonstrates favorable topography,demography, and meteorology, which have beenfactored into many analyses that support theemergency planning effort.3. The Neosho River is oriented northwest-southeastand extends to within 3 miles southwest of theplant.4. The main dam of the John Redmond Reservoir is 3.5miles west of the plant. This water conservationpool is approximately 4 miles in diameter with asurface area of 15 square miles.5. The Coffey County Lake is approximately 7 mileslong with a normal surface area of 8 square miles.6.1.7 The meteorological conditions within the effective 10-mile EPZ are characterized by a distinctly continentalclimate with warm humid summers and highly variablewinter weather. Maritime tropical air originating overthe Gulf of Mexico is the dominant air mass from Junethrough August. This air mass is quite humid resultingin considerable thunderstorm activity. From Novemberthrough February, continental polar air dominates theclimate.6.2 Emergency Classifications6.2.1 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix E, Section IV.C, requires aclassification scheme of four specific levels ofemergencies. NUMARC/NESP 007 is identified withinREGULATORY GUIDE 1.101 and is considered by the NRC asan acceptable alternative method to that described inAppendix 1 to NUREG 0654. [Commitment Step 3.2.1]

6.2.2 An emergency class is a qualitative estimate of thestatus of the plant. Inputs to the emergencyclassification system include the status of plantsystems and the levels of radiation in plant areas andeffluents. However, an emergency class does not give aqualitative or quantitative estimate of the subsequentstatus of the plant or radioactive release.6.2.3 The emergency classes are used by off-site authoritiesto determine the level of preplanned actions to betaken by their emergency organizations. Protectiveactions taken on behalf of members of the public arethe legal responsibility of state and local government.1. The functional interfaces between WCGS and otheremergency organizations are shown in FIGURE 6,EMERGENCY ORGANIZATIONS INTERFACES.6.2.4 The classification system used at WCGS is an approachthat ranges from primarily event-based for UnusualEvent to primarily symptom or barrier-based for GeneralEmergencies. This is to better assure that timelyrecognition and notification occurs, that eventsoccurring during refueling and cold shutdown areappropriately covered, and that multiple events can beeffectively treated.6.2.5 The Emergency Action Levels (EAL) are contained in APF06-002-01, EMERGENCY ACTION LEVELS. The EAL have beendeveloped and agreed upon by WCGS, the State of Kansasand Coffey County and approved by the NRC. [CommitmentStep 3.2.1]1. The EAL are reviewed annually by the State andCounty.6.2.6 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix E, Section IV.C.2, requireslicensees to establish and maintain the capability toassess, classify, and declare an emergency conditionwithin 15 minutes after the availability of indicationsto plant operators that an emergency action level hasbeen exceeded and shall promptly declare the emergency.

6.2.7 Each emergency classification causes certain actions tohappen such as notifications, activation andevacuation.1. An NUE requires plant personnel, the County andState to be notified. No evacuation or activationrequired.2. An Alert requires plant personnel, the County andState to be notified. The Emergency ResponseOrganization (ERO) is called out and the emergencyfacilities are activated. Accountability may beperformed if necessary.3. A Site Area Emergency requires plant personnel, theCounty and State to be notified. The ERO is calledout and the emergency facilities are activated.The protected area is evacuated of non-respondingpersonnel for accountability. JRR and CCL areevacuated. Accountability for site personnel isperformed.4. A General Emergency requires plant personnel, theCounty and State to be notified. The ERO is calledout and the emergency facilities are activated.The site is evacuated of non-responding personnel.JRR and CCL are evacuated. Accountability for sitepersonnel is performed.6.3 Emergency Measures6.3.1 Protective actions to minimize personnel exposure aretaken when an incident has occurred, or may occur,which could result in a fission product barrierchallenge or breach. In addition, protective actionsare taken for personnel onsite for situations such asfires or flooding, where personnel safety isthreatened.

Revision: 16 RADIOLOGICAL EMERGENCY RESPONSE PLAN AP 06-002(RERP)Information Use Page 16 of 906.3.2 Emergency measures consist of assessment, corrective,and protective actions. The Shift Manager and SeniorReactor Operators assume immediate responsibility foraccident assessment and mitigation. The RERP anddetailed emergency actions are based on the assumptionthat, in an emergency, licensed operators takeappropriate measures to maintain or return the facilityto a safe condition, in accordance with operatinglicense conditions and the technical specifications.1. Callout of the ERO to augment the on-shift staffand to activate the Emergency Facilities isperformed at an Alert or higher classification orwhenever augmentation is deemed necessary.6.3.3 Immediate and Follow-up notifications made to State andCounty authorities provide information for their use inmaking prompt decisions for notifying the public andordering off-site protective actions.1. Immediate notifications are made for each emergencyclassification.2. Immediate notifications are made to the CoffeyCounty Sheriff dispatcher and the Kansas Divisionof Emergency Management State Duty Officer within15 minutes.3. The notification form contains information agreedupon by WCGS, the State and County for each of theImmediate and Follow-up notifications. Thefollowing is a list of information that may be onthe form:o Name of facilityo Date and time of classificationo Classificationo Release status, type of material and estimateddurationo Message authentication of phone callo Subzones recommended for protective actionso Meteorological conditionso Dose rates at site boundaryo Event Prognosis, worsening or termination Revision: 16 RADIOLOGICAL EMERGENCY RESPONSE PLAN AP 06-002(RERP)Information Use Page 17 of 906.3.4 Actions to protect the general public, and criteria fortheir implementation, are described in the State Plan.Protective action recommendations are made to theCounty and State authorities.1. ATTACHMENT E, EPA/KANSAS PROTECTIVE ACTION GUIDES,illustrates the EPA/Kansas PAGs for members of thepublic in the vicinity of WCGS and containsinformation typical of what may be used for the PARguidelines. The Attachment provides guidelines andaction levels to be used to develop protectiveaction recommendations. Wolf Creek makes PARs forreleases beyond the 10 mile EPZ. County and Stateofficials have authority to take protective actionsoff-site.2. Evacuation is the normally anticipated off-siteprotective action. Sheltering may be the preferredprotective action when it will provide protectionequal to or greater than evacuation. ATTACHMENT B,SUBZONE EVACUATION TIMES, contains evacuation timesfor the general and transient public.3. An Alert and Notification System, made up of anumber of sirens, is one means of alerting thepublic. Tone Alert radios are also used fornotifications.6.3.5 Contact point for information concerning the CountyPlan, protective measures, and special needs of thehandicapped is the County Emergency Management Office.6.3.6 Additional resources available for accident assessmentinclude accident monitoring and in-plant iodineinstrumentation under accident conditions. Detaileddiscussions of these resources and their capabilitiesare found in the USAR.

Revision: 16 RADIOLOGICAL EMERGENCY RESPONSE PLAN AP 06-002(RERP)Information Use Page 18 of 906.3.7 The Emergency Dose Calculation Program (EDCP) is acomputerized method to provide dose estimates usingactual or estimated meteorological data (wind speed,wind direction, degree of cloud cover, day or nightdetermination) and radiological effluent data (actualmeasurements, estimated values based upon USAR sourceterms, or field measurements). EDCP is designed to:[Reference Step 3.1.9]1. Use radiological and meteorological information toprovide an estimate of off-site exposure.2. Be capable of estimating release rates and off-siteexposures from off-site field team data.3. Be capable of estimating release rates and off-siteexposures for an unmonitored, pressure drivencontainment release using the Containment High AreaRadiation Monitor readings and changes incontainment pressure.4. Off-site dose predictions when combined with actualrelease duration information and meteorologicaldata during an event, provide sufficient data toestimate the cumulative population dose resultingfrom the event. The actual off-site populationdose is confirmed by off-site monitoring, samplingand analysis.6.3.8 Radiological monitoring teams have a goal of 60 minutesfrom the declaration of Alert or greater emergency tobe ready for deployment to confirm effluent readingsand verify plume emission and locations.6.3.9 FIGURE 7, WCGS EMERGENCY RESPONSE FACILITIES, providesa view of the off-site area, showing the location ofthe EOF. FIGURE 8, DIRECT RADIATION PATHWAY SAMPLINGLOCATIONS, shows the fixed air sampling and RDDlocations.

Other decontamination areas are setup as designatedby the Health Physics personnel on the ERO.6.3.13 Respiratory protective devices and protective clothingare stored at several locations onsite and at the EOF.The use of protective clothing and respiratoryprotection equipment is governed by normal WCGSprocedures.6.3.14 A supply of potassium iodide (KI) is maintained at theControl Room, TSC and the EOF to be used in the eventthat an individual may be exposed to radioiodine.6.3.15 There are suggested levels of exposure to be acceptedin emergencies. Immediate reentry may be necessary tosave a life, account for missing personnel, or securevital equipment. The Emergency Managers are ultimatelyresponsible for exposure control and can permit thereceiving of up to 5 REM per person for workactivities, 10 REM for saving valuable equipment and 25REM for lifesaving after consulting with the NRC, iffeasible. Exposure which might exceed 25 REM, forlifesaving activities, must be approved by an EmergencyManager. Although EPA and NRC do not provide specificguidance for the upper bounds for lifesaving exposure,WCGS has chosen to use the following criteria:

1. Emergency Managers shall not knowingly permit anindividual's exposure to exceed 25 REM, unless itis for lifesaving activities or protection of largepopulations. Emergency Managers shall notknowingly permit an individual to enter a high dosearea if the projected Total Effective DoseEquivalent (TEDE) is expected to exceed 75 REM.o Those individuals designated to exceed 25 REMmust be volunteers and be fully aware of therisks involved.2. Emergency Managers should obtain the advice andconcurrence of the Radiological Coordinators inapproving additional exposure.6.3.16 Under emergency conditions, normal exposure controlsare maintained. This is ensured by the on-shift HealthPhysics Technician (HP) in the Control Room, theRadiological Coordinators in the TSC and EOF.6.3.17 The Radiological Coordinator has responsibility formaintaining exposure control for site activities,including establishment of access control at alternatelocations. Strict exposure control of individualspassing through the access point is maintained on a 24-hour-per-day basis.6.3.18 In order to enhance the exposure control process and toprovide dosimetry for an expanded number of people,dosimetry vendors are available to expedite shipment ofextra dosimetry devices to supplement existing onsitesupplies of dosimetry equipment and to supply personnelto assist in onsite appraisal of exposures.6.3.19 When activated, the Emergency Response Team coversemergency sampling, surveying, analysis, and hazardevaluation.6.3.20 Personnel, instruments, and equipment are to bemonitored at the access control point. Personnel andequipment decontamination is controlled in accordancewith WCGS procedures.6.3.21 WCGS maintains control over the Exclusion Area asnecessary, restoring affected onsite areas toacceptable conditions for access.1. Reentry into affected areas is a controlledevolution. Surveys are performed, environmentalsamples are obtained and analyzed, and areas postedor decontaminated.

Evaluation of the status of the three fissionproduct barriers is used for de-escalation. As thesituation improves and barriers are restored, thenext lower level of event may be declared.2. De-escalation may also occur if conditions havestabilized such that the potential for re-escalation to a higher level has been removed and acontrolled situation exists. A declaration of de-escalation is provided by the Emergency Managerbased on known information and recommendations ofthe ERO.3. Guidelines are provided for Reentry Team(s) toperform surveys and monitoring activities to beemployed for initial reentry.6.21.4 During the recovery process the normal proceduresemployed for configuration control, reporting,interfaces with regulatory agencies and support groups,exposure control, environmental monitoring, andprocurement of supplies and services shall be utilized.6.21.5 The Recovery Plan utilizes the necessary technical,administrative, managerial and support personnel thatmay be required for the recovery phase of emergencyresponse, as determined by Site or Off-site EmergencyManagers. The responsibilities and functions of theEmergency Managers and staff are detailed in the EPPs.
