: 1. 1.1 Description 1.1.1. A guide for response to impending se vere weather conditions by members of Salem/Hope Creek in order to assure pers onnel and assets are adeq uately protected. 1.1.2. Provides programmatic guidance to Nuclear personnel for reaction to severe weather conditions. | |||
===1.2 Scope=== | |||
1.2.1. A Severe Weather Team (SWT) is established by this guide. The team leader is the Severe Weather Coordinator (SWC). The SWC is the Operations Director or his designee and has the authority to acti vate the SWT when conditions warrant. 1.2.2. The SWC will assure completion of seve re weather preparations, in accordance with the attached checklists, by maintaining Atta chment 3, Phase Read iness Affirmations. 1.2.3. The SWC will be advised by the Emergency Preparedness (EP) representative on severe weather advisories and bulletins to determine degree of threat posed to the site. EP representative will track severe weather progress. | |||
: 2. 2.1 - Flood preparations should begin when it has been reported that there will be a storm surge of greater than four feet above mean high tide. | |||
2.2 - Strong winds 32-63 m ph (28-55 knots). | |||
To convert knots/hr to mile s/hr - multiply by 1.151. | |||
2.3 - Same as Tropical Storm, but th e winds are over 73 mph and a well-defined low barometric pressure center, ca lled the EYE of the storm, is present. | |||
2.4 - Alerts an area of a possible hurricane within 48 hours away. Comprises an area approximately 100 miles either side of the expected place where the storm could make landfall. It gives size, maximum winds, direction and speed of travel. 2.5 - Issued when winds will be > 74 mph within the next 24 hours. Comprises an area approximately 50 miles either side of the expected place where | |||
the hurricane will strike the coastal areas. | |||
The size of the area comprised by the warning will be determined by the area ov er which hurricane force winds can be expected. Warning also gives the expec ted time and location where hurricane will strike the coast, as well as the size, maxi mum winds, direction and speed of travel. Warning may also describe coastal areas wh ere high water, floods or high waves may be expected. | |||
2.6 - A violently rotating column of air in contact with the ground, usually developing from severe t hunderstorms or hurricanes. | |||
2.7 - A weather disturbance of large size with winds of 39 to 73 mph, rotating in a counterclockwise direction, accompanied by torrential rains and an area of low barometric pressure. | |||
2.8 - Any weather condition that has the potential to impact the continued safe operation of the Salem/Hope Creek Nuclear units or has the potential to impact the health/safety of Salem/Hope Creek personnel. | |||
2.9 - Conditions are favorabl e to produce thunderstorms that produce 3/4" hail and winds 58 mph. | |||
2.10 - A thunderstorm exists wh ich is producing or has the potential to produce 3/4" hail and winds 58 mph. 2.11 - Earthquake (seismic event) is a term used to describe both sudden slip on a fault, and the resulting ground shaking and radiated seismic energy caused | |||
by the slip, or by volcanic or magmatic activity, or other sudden stress changes in the earth. | |||
2.12 Procedure Type(s) and Use(s) 2.12.1. - provide direction to stabilize the plant after a reactor trip/scram, safety injection actuation or loss of power, recover from the accident condition, and place the plant in a safe condition. | |||
2.12.2. - direct operator actions necessary to maintain plant control while mitigating the consequences of abnormal operating conditions to avoid challenging the Reactor Protection System. | |||
2.12.3. - provides short term and immediate corrective actions associated with plant tr ansients or equipment malfunctions and generally prompts the oper ator to transition to an applicable AOP/AB. | |||
2.12.4. - used when transitin g between operating modes or changing power level. Also used fo r any major evolution which requires the use of multiple procedures to obtain or maintain certain conditions. | |||
2.12.5. - used to demonstrate Safety Related Equipment and System Operability as required by Technical Specifications. | |||
2.12.6. - used to test or demon strate the functional status of equipment. | |||
2.12.7. ) - used in the performance of normal system specific equipment operation. | |||
2.12.8. - provide a mechanism of publishing management rules. These documents do not address items associated with the license and therefore are not safety related. | |||
2.12.9. - provide guidelines for plant operations which affect more than one system and do not logically fit into another category. | |||
2.12.10. - describes testing of plant safety related valves and pumps which fall under the requirements of ASME Section IX. | |||
2.12.11. - record the operational stat us of select equipment, and parameters of such equipment ne cessary to trend performance. | |||
2.12.12. - provide specific instructions concerning lubricating points and methods, prescribing lubricants, and required tools for performing lubrication on major plant equipment. Lubricants used must exactly match that called for in SAP. | |||

: 1. Category 3 and above hurricanes exceed design wind loading for the Salem TSC, common EOF, and ENC. Relocate personnel as needed to safe plant areas until the hurricane has passed or is downgraded to < Category 3 2. Hurricane season officially extends from June 1 through November 30 each year. Due to the complexity of severe storms and the extensive preparations required, the SWC should call a meeting of the SWT in may of each year to discuss phase i actions. A phased approach is recommended as a managing tactic. The following example outlines a phased | |||
approach: - Phase I Season Preparation | |||
- Phase II Storm Approaching Eastern Seaboard | |||
- Phase III Storm Threatening Immediate Area. High degree of confidence that there will be localized impact - Phase IV Storm Impacting Area | |||
- Phase V Storm Exits Area - Recovery/Resume Normal Operation 3. The SWT must specifically consider the sa fety benefits gained by taking protective actions (including plant shut-down). The following information should be considered: - The ability of Salem Units 1 and 2 and Hope Creek to run at power in a stable manner (or in the operating mode of that particular plant). - The availability of normal and emergen cy equipment to support normal operation, anticipated transients, and accident conditions. - Storm intensity movement, and forecast changes. | |||
- Tidal conditions and forecast changes. | |||
- Status of offsite power as determined by discussions with System Operator and Operating Crews of all three units. 4. The following are key elements for e ffective storm prepar ation and management: - Emergency supplies and equipment hav e been ordered well in advance and are available in stock. 72 hours of preparation time prior to impact; (based on weather advisories and forecasts). - Manpower/resources are available to complete task. | |||
: 5. The SWC should designate a command center for the preparation stages of severe weather. Once preparations are complet ed and team staffing has been reduced to minimal, consider relocating the SWT to one of the operations support centers or technical support center, if weather conditions wa rrant, for the durati on of the storm. 6. When a severe weather warning is in effect, the SWT should confer following the issuance of each weather advisory by t he national weat her service. 7. Refer to Corporate Severe Storm Policy, Procedure 18.3, for guidance on early dismissal of personnel. Release non-esse ntial personnel in a phased, controlled manner as storm preparations are completed or as personal circumstances dictate. | |||
Try to release at least six hours in advance of severe weather to allow personnel to arrive home safely. 8. In the case of a hurricane, it should not be assumed that the storm has passed when the winds and rains subside. This may mean that the EYE of the hurricane is over the area, and within approximately 1 hour, the winds will begin blowi ng again from the opposite direction as the second half of the hurricane passes through. A weather emergency is not over until the receipt of official word from the National Weather Service that there is no longer a threat to the area. | |||
The following is a guideline for the Severe W eather Coordinator and Severe Weather Team Members to consider, not every item is applicable to every severe weather scenario. 1. Due to potential telephone problems and plant access problems, each department should determine as soon as possible the availability of their personnel during and after the storm and communicate to them when they are expect ed to be on site. The number of personnel on site should be minimized during the storm. | |||
LS-AA-119 should be referred to as needed to ensure compliance with Fatigue Management. 2. SWT should assure that storm response per sonnel are briefed on the weather conditions, precautions, expected duties, potential probl ems, contingencies, and communications usage. Personnel expected to remain on site during the storm should be prepared for 48-72 hours duration. 3. Personnel should be reminded to carry Salem/ | |||
Hope Creek identification to and from the site for I.D. To local Law Enforcement Agencies. 4. SWT needs to ensure that implementation of personnel sc heduling, evacuation, meals, and sleeping plans are establis hed during the severe weather preparations. (personnel remaining on site during the storm can be fed from the cafeteria st ored food and supplies or from specially ordered meals. 5. SWT should consider alternat ive means of transportation for call out personnel to minimize the number of personal vehicles on si te; vans, buses, helicopters, etc. 6. SWT members should determine which families of the employees who are staying and or standing by, need evacuation assistance. Thos e who will be stayi ng during the storm should be allowed to take time off to ensure safety of their families befor e returning for the duration of the storm. 7. SWT members should ensure that all unnecessary outside activities are kept to a minimum when a severe storm is near and high winds ar e occurring, or if there is significant likelihood that a tornado will st rike the immediate plant site. 8. For hurricanes, go to the inner most hallways at the lowest level of your building. | |||
Stay away from west and south windows du ring high winds and keep low to the floor. 9. For lightning, go inside of building or car; keep away from metal objects, trees, transmission lines, and telephone poles. Avoid using the telephones and electrical devices. | |||
: 10. General considerations for heavy flood conditions are as follows: - All plant windows and doors should be closed. - Monitoring of Sewage Treatment Pl ant capacity level should begin. - Evaluate any system configuration, which may permit water intrusion into the plant buildings due to high tides. - Company vehicles should be moved to shelte r when tides are projected to rise 4 feet above normal high tides. - Personal vehicles should be parked on high ground such as, the contractor lots adjacent to Nuclear Administration Building or next to Hope Creek Switch Yard. 11. SWT should determine when it is safe for personnel to return to work and select a predetermined area where employees can go outside of the effected area (NTC, Community Center, other Salem/Hope Creek facilities dependent on storm prediction) and/or what phone number employees can call to get information about returning to work. (establish communications with the selected location.) 12. If the site access road is unavailable, the severe weather team should consider arranging for helicopters to bring support personnel and equipment to the site immediately after passage of the storm. | |||

- 1. 1.1 Description 1.1.1. A guide for response to impending se vere weather conditions by members of Salem/Hope Creek in order to assure pers onnel and assets are adeq uately protected. 1.1.2. Provides programmatic guidance to Nuclear personnel for reaction to severe weather conditions.
1.2 Scope
1.2.1. A Severe Weather Team (SWT) is established by this guide. The team leader is the Severe Weather Coordinator (SWC). The SWC is the Operations Director or his designee and has the authority to acti vate the SWT when conditions warrant. 1.2.2. The SWC will assure completion of seve re weather preparations, in accordance with the attached checklists, by maintaining Atta chment 3, Phase Read iness Affirmations. 1.2.3. The SWC will be advised by the Emergency Preparedness (EP) representative on severe weather advisories and bulletins to determine degree of threat posed to the site. EP representative will track severe weather progress.
- 2. 2.1 - Flood preparations should begin when it has been reported that there will be a storm surge of greater than four feet above mean high tide.
2.2 - Strong winds 32-63 m ph (28-55 knots).
To convert knots/hr to mile s/hr - multiply by 1.151.
2.3 - Same as Tropical Storm, but th e winds are over 73 mph and a well-defined low barometric pressure center, ca lled the EYE of the storm, is present.
2.4 - Alerts an area of a possible hurricane within 48 hours5.555556e-4 days <br />0.0133 hours <br />7.936508e-5 weeks <br />1.8264e-5 months <br /> away. Comprises an area approximately 100 miles either side of the expected place where the storm could make landfall.

Comprises an area approximately 50 miles either side of the expected place where
the hurricane will strike the coastal areas.
The size of the area comprised by the warning will be determined by the area ov er which hurricane force winds can be expected. Warning also gives the expec ted time and location where hurricane will strike the coast, as well as the size, maxi mum winds, direction and speed of travel. Warning may also describe coastal areas wh ere high water, floods or high waves may be expected.
2.6 - A violently rotating column of air in contact with the ground, usually developing from severe t hunderstorms or hurricanes.
2.7 - A weather disturbance of large size with winds of 39 to 73 mph, rotating in a counterclockwise direction, accompanied by torrential rains and an area of low barometric pressure.
2.8 - Any weather condition that has the potential to impact the continued safe operation of the Salem/Hope Creek Nuclear units or has the potential to impact the health/safety of Salem/Hope Creek personnel.
2.9 - Conditions are favorabl e to produce thunderstorms that produce 3/4" hail and winds 58 mph.
2.10 - A thunderstorm exists wh ich is producing or has the potential to produce 3/4" hail and winds 58 mph. 2.11 - Earthquake (seismic event) is a term used to describe both sudden slip on a fault, and the resulting ground shaking and radiated seismic energy caused
by the slip, or by volcanic or magmatic activity, or other sudden stress changes in the earth.

- 1. Category 3 and above hurricanes exceed design wind loading for the Salem TSC, common EOF, and ENC. Relocate personnel as needed to safe plant areas until the hurricane has passed or is downgraded to < Category 3 2. Hurricane season officially extends from June 1 through November 30 each year. Due to the complexity of severe storms and the extensive preparations required, the SWC should call a meeting of the SWT in may of each year to discuss phase i actions. A phased approach is recommended as a managing tactic. The following example outlines a phased
approach: - Phase I Season Preparation
- Phase II Storm Approaching Eastern Seaboard
- Phase III Storm Threatening Immediate Area. High degree of confidence that there will be localized impact - Phase IV Storm Impacting Area
- Phase V Storm Exits Area - Recovery/Resume Normal Operation 3. The SWT must specifically consider the sa fety benefits gained by taking protective actions (including plant shut-down). The following information should be considered: - The ability of Salem Units 1 and 2 and Hope Creek to run at power in a stable manner (or in the operating mode of that particular plant). - The availability of normal and emergen cy equipment to support normal operation, anticipated transients, and accident conditions. - Storm intensity movement, and forecast changes.
- Tidal conditions and forecast changes.
- Status of offsite power as determined by discussions with System Operator and Operating Crews of all three units. 4. The following are key elements for e ffective storm prepar ation and management: - Emergency supplies and equipment hav e been ordered well in advance and are available in stock. 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> of preparation time prior to impact; (based on weather advisories and forecasts). - Manpower/resources are available to complete task.
- 5. The SWC should designate a command center for the preparation stages of severe weather. Once preparations are complet ed and team staffing has been reduced to minimal, consider relocating the SWT to one of the operations support centers or technical support center, if weather conditions wa rrant, for the durati on of the storm. 6. When a severe weather warning is in effect, the SWT should confer following the issuance of each weather advisory by t he national weat her service. 7. Refer to Corporate Severe Storm Policy, Procedure 18.3, for guidance on early dismissal of personnel. Release non-esse ntial personnel in a phased, controlled manner as storm preparations are completed or as personal circumstances dictate.
Try to release at least six hours in advance of severe weather to allow personnel to arrive home safely. 8. In the case of a hurricane, it should not be assumed that the storm has passed when the winds and rains subside. This may mean that the EYE of the hurricane is over the area, and within approximately 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br />, the winds will begin blowi ng again from the opposite direction as the second half of the hurricane passes through. A weather emergency is not over until the receipt of official word from the National Weather Service that there is no longer a threat to the area.
The following is a guideline for the Severe W eather Coordinator and Severe Weather Team Members to consider, not every item is applicable to every severe weather scenario. 1. Due to potential telephone problems and plant access problems, each department should determine as soon as possible the availability of their personnel during and after the storm and communicate to them when they are expect ed to be on site. The number of personnel on site should be minimized during the storm.
LS-AA-119 should be referred to as needed to ensure compliance with Fatigue Management. 2. SWT should assure that storm response per sonnel are briefed on the weather conditions, precautions, expected duties, potential probl ems, contingencies, and communications usage. Personnel expected to remain on site during the storm should be prepared for 48-72 hours duration. 3. Personnel should be reminded to carry Salem/
Hope Creek identification to and from the site for I.D. To local Law Enforcement Agencies. 4. SWT needs to ensure that implementation of personnel sc heduling, evacuation, meals, and sleeping plans are establis hed during the severe weather preparations. (personnel remaining on site during the storm can be fed from the cafeteria st ored food and supplies or from specially ordered meals. 5. SWT should consider alternat ive means of transportation for call out personnel to minimize the number of personal vehicles on si te; vans, buses, helicopters, etc. 6. SWT members should determine which families of the employees who are staying and or standing by, need evacuation assistance. Thos e who will be stayi ng during the storm should be allowed to take time off to ensure safety of their families befor e returning for the duration of the storm. 7. SWT members should ensure that all unnecessary outside activities are kept to a minimum when a severe storm is near and high winds ar e occurring, or if there is significant likelihood that a tornado will st rike the immediate plant site. 8. For hurricanes, go to the inner most hallways at the lowest level of your building.
Stay away from west and south windows du ring high winds and keep low to the floor. 9. For lightning, go inside of building or car; keep away from metal objects, trees, transmission lines, and telephone poles. Avoid using the telephones and electrical devices.
- 10. General considerations for heavy flood conditions are as follows: - All plant windows and doors should be closed. - Monitoring of Sewage Treatment Pl ant capacity level should begin. - Evaluate any system configuration, which may permit water intrusion into the plant buildings due to high tides. - Company vehicles should be moved to shelte r when tides are projected to rise 4 feet above normal high tides. - Personal vehicles should be parked on high ground such as, the contractor lots adjacent to Nuclear Administration Building or next to Hope Creek Switch Yard. 11. SWT should determine when it is safe for personnel to return to work and select a predetermined area where employees can go outside of the effected area (NTC, Community Center, other Salem/Hope Creek facilities dependent on storm prediction) and/or what phone number employees can call to get information about returning to work. (establish communications with the selected location.) 12. If the site access road is unavailable, the severe weather team should consider arranging for helicopters to bring support personnel and equipment to the site immediately after passage of the storm.
