SUBJECT:
SEQUOYAH NUCLEAR PLANT - NRC EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS INSPECTION REPORT 05000327/2010501 AND 05000328/2010501
Dear Mr. Krich:
On November 19, 2010, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed an inspection at your Sequoyah Nuclear Plant, Units 1 and 2. The enclosed inspection report documents the inspection results which were discussed on November 19, 2010, with Mr. R.
Detwiler, and other members of your staff.
The inspection examined activities conducted under your license as they relate to safety and compliance with the Commission's rules and regulations and with the conditions of your license.
The inspectors reviewed selected procedures and records, observed activities, and interviewed personnel.
Based on the results of this inspection, no findings were identified.
In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390 of the NRC's "Rules of Practice," a copy of this letter, its enclosure, and your response, if any, will be available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public Document Room or from the Publicly Available Records (PARS) component of NRC's document system (ADAMS). ADAMS is accessible from the NRC Website at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html (the Public Electronic Reading Room).
Sincerely,

SUMMARY OF FINDINGS
IR 05000327/2010501 and 05000328/2010501; 11/15/2010 - 11/19/2010; Sequoyah Nuclear
Plant, Units 1 and 2; Baseline Inspection.
This report covered an announced inspection by a regional emergency preparedness inspector, a senior resident inspector, a resident inspector and an emergency response coordinator.

REPORT DETAILS
REACTOR SAFETY
1EP1 Exercise Evaluation
a. Inspection Scope
Prior to the inspection activity, the inspectors conducted an in-office review of the exercise objectives and scenario submitted to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) to determine if the exercise would test major elements of the emergency plan as required by 10 CFR 50.47(b)(14).
The onsite inspection consisted of the following review and assessment:
- The adequacy of the licensee's performance in the biennial exercise conducted on November 17, 2010, was reviewed and assessed regarding the implementation of the Risk Significant Planning Standards (RSPS) in 10 CFR 50.47 (b)(4), (5), (9), and
- (10) which address emergency classification, offsite notification, radiological assessment, and protective action recommendations respectively.
- The overall adequacy of the licensee's emergency response facilities with regard to NUREG-0696, "Functional Criteria for Emergency Response Facilities and Emergency Plan commitments". The facilities assessed were the Control Room Simulator, Technical Support Center (TSC), Operations Support Center (OSC) and Emergency Operations Facility (EOF).
- Other performance areas such as: the Emergency Response Organization's (ERO) recognition of abnormal plant conditions; command and control, intra- and inter-facility communications; prioritization of mitigation activities; utilization of repair and field monitoring teams; interface with offsite agencies; and the overall implementation of the emergency plan and its implementing procedures.
- The post-exercise critique process and the presentation to the licensee's senior management conducted on November 18, 2010, to evaluate the licensee's self-assessment of its Emergency Response Organization (ERO) performance during the exercise, and to ensure compliance with 10 CFR 50, Appendix E, Subsection IV.F.2.g.
The inspectors reviewed various documents which are listed in the Attachment. This inspection activity satisfied one inspection sample for the exercise evaluation on a biennial basis.
b. Findings
No findings were identified.
1EP4 Emergency Action Level and Emergency Plan Changes
a. Inspection Scope
Since the last NRC inspection of this program area, revisions 90, 91, and 92 of the Emergency Plan were implemented based on the licensee's determination, in accordance with 10 CFR 50.54(q), that the changes resulted in no decrease in the effectiveness of the Plan, and that the revised Plan continued to meet the requirements of 10 CFR 50.47(b) and Appendix E to 10 CFR Part 50. The inspectors conducted a sampling review of the implementing procedure changes made between October 1, 2009, and October 31, 2010, to evaluate for potential decreases in effectiveness of the Plan. However, this review was not documented in a Safety Evaluation Report and does not constitute formal NRC approval of the changes. Therefore, these changes remain subject to future NRC inspection in their entirety.
The inspection was conducted in accordance with NRC Inspection Procedure 71114, Attachment 04, "Emergency Action Level and Emergency Plan Changes." The applicable planning standard (PS), 10 CFR 50.47(b)(4) and its related 10 CFR 50, Appendix E requirements were used as reference criteria.
The inspectors reviewed various documents which are listed in the Attachment. This inspection activity satisfied one inspection sample for the emergency action level and emergency plan changes on an annual basis.
b. Findings
No findings were identified.
OTHER ACTIVITIES
4OA1 Performance Indicator Verification
a. Inspection Scope
The inspectors sampled licensee submittals relative to the Performance Indicators (PIs)listed below for the period July 1, 2009, through September 30, 2010. To verify the accuracy of the PI data reported during that period, PI definitions and guidance contained in NEI 99-02, "Regulatory Assessment Performance Indicator Guideline," Revision 6, was used to confirm the reporting basis for each data element.
Emergency Preparedness Cornerstone
- Emergency Response Organization Drill/Exercise Performance (DEP)
- Emergency Response Organization Readiness (ERO)
- Alert and Notification System Reliability (ANS)
For the specified review period, the inspectors examined data reported to the NRC, procedural guidance for reporting PI information, and records used by the licensee to identify potential PI occurrences. The inspector verified the accuracy of the DEP through review of a sample of drill and event records. The inspector reviewed selected training records to verify the accuracy of the ERO PI for personnel assigned to key positions in the ERO. The inspector verified the accuracy of the PI for ANS reliability through review of a sample of the licensee's records of periodic system tests. Licensee procedures, records, and other documents reviewed within this inspection area are listed in the Attachment.
The inspectors reviewed various documents which are listed in the Attachment. This inspection activity satisfied one inspection sample for each of the three
- (3) Emergency Preparedness PIs, i.e., DEP, ERO, and ANS, on an annual basis.
b. Findings
No findings were identified.
4OA6 Meetings, Including Exit
On November 19, 2010, the lead inspector presented the inspection results to Mr. R. Detwiler, and other members of licensee management. The inspector confirmed that proprietary information was not provided or examined during the inspection.
