1 Rev. 42 JOSEPH M. FARLEY NUCLEAR PLANT EMERGENCY PLAN I. INTRODUCTION A. PURPOSE The purpose of the Joseph M. Farley Nuclear Plant (FNP) Emergency Plan is to protect the health and safety of the general public, persons temporarily visiting or assigned to the plant, and plant employees in accordance with the requirements set forth in Appendix E, "Emergency Plans for Production and Utilization Facilities", of 10CFR50, "Licensing of Production and Utilization Facilities".

Detailed procedures concerning the implementation of the Emergency Plan are not included here but are included in the Emergency Plan Implementing Procedures.

These procedures, listed in Appendix 4(D), describe the duties of individuals and groups in the event of an emergency and they also serve as an interface of the Emergency Plan to plant operations, security and radiological control. Supporting emergency plans, which include the emergency plans for the states of Alabama, Georgia, and Florida, are listed in Appendix 6(F).

Information submitted in this plan was developed in accordance with the elements outlined in NUREG-0654, FEMA-REP-1, Rev. 1 "Criteria for Preparation and Evaluation of Radiological Emergency Response Plans and Preparedness in Support of Nuclear Power Plants". Information that describes the Emergency Operations Facility (EOF) for Southern Nuclear is outlined in Appendix 7(G).

B.

SUMMARY

Southern Nuclear Operating Company corporate management has overall responsibility for maintaining a state of readiness to implement emergency plans for the protection of plant personnel, the general public and property from hazards associated with ionizing radiation originating within a company facility. The authority for planning, developing, and coordinating emergency control measures is discussed in Appendix 9 (I), Responsibility For The Planning Effort.

The Farley Plant Emergency Plan describes the organization and facilities both onsite and offsite that will be used to deal with a spectrum of accidents ranging from minor onsite incidents to those that could affect the general public. There are three phases of responsive action contained within the Farley Plant Emergency Plan. The first phase includes initial actions directed toward the protection of personnel and the elimination of the potential for further exposure to the hazard.

2 Rev. 47 The second phase includes immediate and planned action directed toward termination of the incident, containment of the effluent, establishment of incident boundaries, establishment of control, channeling of information and protection of the facility and equipment. The third phase is to restore the facility to its normal operating condition.

To respond effectively utilizing these phases, emergencies are classified according to increasing severity as Notification of Unusual Event, Alert, Site Area Emergency or

General Emergency. C. GENERAL INFORMATION

1. Definitions

a. Affected Persons Individuals who have been radiologically exposed or physically injured as a result of an accident to a degree requiring special attention, e.g.,

decontamination, first aid, or medical services. b. Assessment Actions Those actions taken during or after an accident which are collectively necessary to make decisions to implement specific emergency measures. c. Controlled Area The Controlled Area is the fenced area immediately surrounding the nuclear plant, access to which is controlled for industrial security purposes. d. Corrective Action Those emergency measures taken to terminate an emergency situation at or near the source of the problem. e. Emergency Action Levels Radiological dose rates; specific contamination levels of airborne, waterborne or surface deposited concentrations of radioactive materials; or specific instrument indications (including their rates of change) that may be used as thresholds for initiating such specific emergency measures as designating a particular class of emergency, initiating a notification procedure or initiating a particular protective action. f. EOF Manager The EOF Manager is responsible for the activation of the corporate emergency organization and for providing corporate emergency support prior to and following Emergency Operations Facility activation.

g. Emergency Director The Plant Manager or designated alternate as the Emergency Director is charged with the responsibility of overall direction of the plant emergency activity and with initial interfacing with offsite groups.

3 Rev. 47 h. Hostile Action An act toward an NPP or its personnel that includes the use of violent force to destroy equipment, takes hostages, and /or intimidates the licensee to achieve an end. This includes attack by air, land, or water using guns, explosives, projectiles, vehicles, or other devices used to deliver destructive force. Other acts that satisfy the overall intent may be included. HOSTILE ACTION should not be construed to include acts of civil disobedience or felonious acts that are not part of a concerted attack on the NPP. Non-terrorism-based EALs should be used to address such activities, (e.g., violent acts between individuals in the owner controlled area.

i. Hostile Force One or more individuals who are engaged in a determined assault, overtly or by stealth and deception, equipped with suitable weapons capable of killing, maiming, or causing destruction.

j. Offsite All land and water areas outside the site property lines are considered to be offsite. k. Onsite All land and water areas inside the site property lines, use of which must be authorized by SNC, is referred to as onsite. l. Population at Risk Those persons for whom protective actions are being or would be taken. m. Protected Area The Protected Area is the fenced area immediately surrounding the plant Vital Areas, access to which is limited to those individuals with good cause for

entry. n. Protective Action Guides Projected radiological dose or dose commitment values to individuals in the general population that warrant protective action following a release of radioactive material. o. Protective Actions Those emergency measures taken after an uncontrolled release of radioactive material has occurred for the purpose of preventing or minimizing radiological exposures that would be likely to occur to persons if the actions were not taken.

4 Rev. 47

p. Radiation Controlled Area The containment and the potentially contaminated portion of the Auxiliary Building and other areas onsite such as High Radiation Area, Radiation

Area, Radioactive Materials Area, Airborne Radioactivity Area or

Contaminated Area. q. Recovery Actions Those actions taken after the emergency to restore the plant as nearly as possible to its pre-emergency condition.

r. Vital Area The Vital Areas are those plant areas which enclose major systems, equipment and components necessary to prevent or mitigate the consequences of an accident. 2. Emergency Ingress and Egress

a. Emergency Ingress Ingress to any area of the plant can be obtained by the use of keys which are maintained by the Shift Supervisor and the Senior Security Force Member. In the case of electrically locked doors, keys will override the locking device. The necessary keys will be issued as required to combat the emergency. b. Emergency Egress Egress from any area of the plant is assured without keys, electrical power or other devices.

5 Rev. 49

II. ORGANIZATION The organization, responsibilities and functions of Southern Nuclear Operating Company onsite and offsite resources are individually discussed below. The onsite and offsite organizations provide emergency response duri ng the activation, emergency, and recovery phases of accident response. Principal federal, state, local and private agencies are also discussed. Figures 12 and 13 illustrate the interrelationships of these organizations before and after Emergency Operations Facility activation respectively. A. ONSITE The normal onsite organization for Farley Nuclear Plant is shown on Figure 1. Management positions in the onsite organization meet the qualification requirements of ANSI N18.1-1971.

The qualifications for the professional-technical level positions also meet the

requirements of ANSI N18.1-1971.

1. Technical Support Center (TSC)

The emergency onsite organization implemented for events requiring activation of the TSC is described in FNP-0-EIP-0 and is shown in Figure 2.

Responsibilities and authorities of personnel in the TSC emergency organization are as follows:

a. Emergency Director (ED)

The ED is charged with the responsibility of overall direction of onsite emergency activity including near-site field monitoring team dispatch and control and interfacing with offsite organizations and agencies until the Emergency Operations Facility (EOF) is activated. After the EOF is functional, the ED is responsible for overall direction of all in-plant emergency activity. The ED shall supervise the TSC and manage the in plant recovery efforts and the in plant recovery organization. The ED shall communicate directly with the EOF Manager when the EOF is activated and shall have full authority to direct the onsite recovery efforts without further consultation when the situation demands such action. Following EOF activation when time permits the ED will consult with EOF personnel prior to initiating major evolutions or changes in plant configuration. The ED's general responsibilities include:

1) Staffing the TSC. The TSC will be staffed by plant supervisory personnel supplemented by plant engineering, technical and administrative personnel as necessary to staff the TSC 24 hours2.777778e-4 days 0.00667 hours 3.968254e-5 weeks 9.132e-6 months a day and discharge the responsibilities discussed below.

2) Evaluating the classification of the emergency and amending as appropriate. Terminating an emergency level will not be delegated to other elements of the emergency organization and will be performed in accordance with approved procedures.

6 Rev. 64

3) Verifying correct control room response to the emergency classification.

4) Determining radiological status and initiating notifications to state agencies (and local agencies for General Emergencies). The decision to notify offsite government agencies may not be delegated to any other element of the emergency organization.

5) Initiating, on initial or upgrade emergency notifications, recommendations to state agencies on advisability of evacuations. Recommendations to local agencies when state authorities cannot be contacted for immediate evacuation may not be delegated to any other element of the emergency organization.

6) Initiating rescue or emergency repair operations as appro-priate. 7) Maintaining plant security.

8) Establishing communications with and providing information to the EOF Manager.

In fulfilling the above listed responsibilities the Emergency Director (ED) is guided by the procedures listed below:

FNP-0-EIP-8.1 Emergency Phone Directory FNP-0-EIP-8.3 Communication Equipment Operating Procedures NMP-EP-104 Dose Assessment NMP-EP-110 Emergency Classification Determination and Initial Action NMP-EP-111 Emergency Notifications NMP-EP-112 Protective Action Recommendations The ED position is initially filled by the Shift Manager until relieved by the on-call ED. It is the intent of SNC that the ED will be transferred from the Control Room as soon as practicable.

The line of succession of individuals who may serve as the ED is as follows:

Vice President - Nuclear Plant Site Plant Manager

Site Support Manager

Operations Director

On-call Operations Supervisor

Shift Manager

Shift Supervisor Other Managers or staff designated by the Plant Manager

7 Rev. 52 The above line of succession does not preclude higher level management from assuming the role of Emergency Director (ED)in any circumstance which, in the judgment of the manager, is appropriate or necessary to protect the health and safety of the public. This designation also does not relieve higher level management from the responsibility to be aware of those circumstances that may initiate this action. These individuals will be trained as EDs.

b. TSC Manager

The on-call TSC Manager reports to the Technical Support Center (TSC) and is responsible for implementing FNP-0-EIP-6, "TSC Setup and Activation", assisting the ED with classification assessment and emergency plan implementation per NMP-EP-110, "Emergency Classification Determination and Initial Action" and coordination of communications between the TSC and other locations per NMP-EP-111, "Emergency Notifications ".

C. ASSESSMENT FACILITIES In order to carry out the assessment actions described in Section IV, facilities must be available for initial as well as continuous evaluation of emergency conditions.

1. Onsite Systems and Equipment

a. Natural Phenomena Monitors

41 Rev. 57 The plant is equipped with a meteorological tower instrumented as shown in Table 2, with both primary and secondary instrumentation for wind speed (10m and 45.7m), wind direction (10m and 45.7m),

ambient temperature (10m and 60m

), and dew point (10m and 60m). There is also a single channel of instrumentation for precipitation with associated data loggers located at the meteorological tower building.

The meteorological tower instrumentation feeds wind speed, wind direction, precipitation, dew point, delta temperature, and sigma theta data to the plant computer. This data is utilized for dose calculations.

Computer terminals in the TSC and EOF can be utilized to obtain real time or 15 minute average readouts of meteorological data.

Should the plant's meteorological equipment become inoperable, information is available from the approved Flight Service, from the Georgia Pacific Paper Company, or from the regional National Weather Service offices.

Various types of seismic instrumentation are located on vital pieces of equipment and structures throughout the site, a number of which have readout and/or annunciation in the control room. A complete discussion of these monitors is given in FSAR Section 3.7.4.

Seismic information may also be obtained from the National

Earthquake Center in Golden, Colorado.

The plant is equipped with hydrologic monitors to monitor river water level and service water pond level. These monitors have readout and annunciation in the control room. Redundant river water level monitors provide control room indication from 65 to 130 feet MSL river level. A discussion of service water pond level monitors is given in FSAR Section 9.2.1.5.

b. Radiological Monitors Portable monitors and sampling equipment used during normal plant operations are available in the Health Physics Instrument Issue Room on elevation 155 of the auxiliary building for use during emergencies. Portable monitors and/or sampling equipment designated for emergency use are located in various areas of the plant. A general category listing of emergency supplies and equipment is included in Appendix 1(A) and an itemized listing can be found in FNP-0-EIP-16, "Emergency Equipment and Supplies".

Process, area and effluent monitors that may be used for emergency assessment are described in Appendix 3(C). A complete discussion of these monitors is given in FSAR Sections 11.4 and 12.1.4.

Monitors on gaseous effluent release points provide

42 Rev. 53 input signals to a plant computer utilized for offsite dose calculations; computer terminals in the TSC and EOF can be utilized to obtain one minute or 15 minute average effluent activity data. FNP-0-EIP-30, "Post Accident Core Damage Assessment", provides correlations between containment high range area monitor readings and core damage.

c. Post Accident Sampling Facilities Facilities are provided for obtaining highly radioactive samples while minimizing personnel exposure. Reactor coolant samples, both pressurized (RCS) and unpressurized (RHR/containment sump) may be obtained utilizing a remotely operated sampling panel.

The panel provides for obtaining samples of both liquid phase and non-condensable gas phase components. Particulate, iodine and noble gas samples may be obtained from the containment atmosphere or the plant vent stack utilizing remotely operated valves. All systems provide for collection of small aliquots of the sampled media. Sampling capability also exists for the steam generators and steam jet air ejectors. Shielded containers, portable shielding and remote handling apparati allow analysis with minimum exposure.

d. Fire Detection Fire and smoke detection monitors are located in all vital buildings on the plant site with extensive coverage in the Auxiliary Building, Containment and Turbine Building. A complete description of the fire protection and detection systems is given in FSAR Section 9.5, and fire protection re-evaluation report entitled, "Farley Nuclear Plant Fire Protection Program

Re-evaluation".

2. Environs Monitoring Facilities and Equipment A comprehensive environmental monitoring program is established for the Farley Plant covering both onsite and offsite areas. Equipment used in this program that may be used for emergency assessment is as follows:

a. OSLDs b. Air particulate and iodine monitors

c. Portable radiation survey instruments Although the OSLDs and the air particulate and iodine samples may be evaluated by an outside vendor, the capability for evaluating the air particulate and iodine samples exists at the plant. FNP-0-RCP-25 provides methodology for utilizing available air sampling and

monitoring

43 Rev. 64 equipment to measure radioiodine concentrations in air in the plume exposure EPZ as low as 10-7 uCi/ml under field conditions. Interference from noble gas and background radiation will not decrease the minimum detectable activity. A detailed description of the minimum portable and fixed health physics equipment available at the site is given in FSAR Section 12.3. Predesignated monitoring and sampling points are listed in FNP-0-EIP-4, "Health Physics Support to the Emergency Plan".

The states of Georgia and Florida have mobile laboratory facilities that could be used in case of emergencies. All field monitoring data will be transmitted to and analyzed at the EOF (the TSC until the EOF is staffed). The University of Georgia and Oak Ridge National Laboratories have fixed radiological laboratorie s in the general geographic area that can aid in radiological analysis. It is estimated that the response time for these organizations will range from 2 to 4 hours4.62963e-5 days 0.00111 hours 6.613757e-6 weeks 1.522e-6 months .

The plant is equipped with a computer which utilizes automatically input meteorological data, effluent monitor data and selected plant parameter data (e.g. steam generator pressure, plant vent stack flow rate, etc.) to calculate estimated and projected offsite dose.

The system automatically actuates when effluent monitors indicate abnormal release point activity and continues until manually terminated. Calculational results are available at computer terminals located at the TSC, EOF and other selected locations.

In the event that the above computer is not available and for long term dose assessment, a manual personal computer method is provided in NMP-EP-104, "Dose Assessment". The system calculates estimated and projected offsite dose, and plume dimensions, location and arrival times out to 50 miles from the plant site. Meteorological data, effluent monitor data and plant parameter data utilized in the manual calculations will usually be obtained from local data systems. In the event that the local data systems are not available then data may be obtained from the control room meteorological data recorder, effluent monitor instruments and control room indicators.

A detailed discussion of the automatic offsite dose assessment method is provided in FNP-0-M-007, "Emergency Dose Calculation Manual". A detailed discussion of the manual offsite dose assessment method is provided in the MIDAS (Meteorological Information and Dose Assessment System) Technical Manual.

Results of dose estimates and projections are provided to off-site agencies responsible for initiating protective actions using the SNC Integrated Data Display System, telecopy system, ENN, ENS and/or commercial telephones.

44 Rev. 56

56 Rev. 60 IV. ASSESSMENT ACTIONS AND PROTECTIVE MEASURES A. CLASSIFICATION OF EMERGENCIES CLASSIFICATION OF EMERGENCIES IS DESCRIBED IN APPENDIX 11(k)

B. POST ACCIDENT ASSESSMENT ACTIONS Effective coordination and direction of all elements of the emergency organization require continuing assessment through the duration of the emergency situation. In addition to continued monitoring of control room instrumentation and plant parameters, some special assessment actions are, initiated if appropriate. These assessment functions are identified below:

1. Reactor Coolant Sampling, Containment Atmosphere Sampling and Plant Vent Stack Sampling.

RCS, containment atmosphere and/or plant vent stack samples will be taken and analyzed to assess the severity of core damage and the potential radiological consequences. The detailed sampling procedures for each area are provided in FNP-1/2-CCP-1300, "Chemistry and Environmental Activities During a Radiological Accident". FNP-0-EIP-30, "Post Accident Core Damage Assessment" provides a method to estimate the extent of core damage utilizing various plant monitor readings.

2. Surveillance of Control Room Monitors Surveillance of radiological and meteorological monitors in the control room is primarily the responsibility of operations personnel. However, in the event that offsite assessments based on this data are necessary, an individual designated by the Emergency Director will maintain surveillance over effluent monitor readings and dose projections, periodically reporting them to those designated in FNP-0-EIP-6, "TSC Setup and Activation". If the dose assessment computer is inoperable, the designated individual will periodically log the monitor values.

3. In-Plant and Site Surveys During emergency conditions in-plant, site and site boundary surveys will be performed as appropriate by the Field Monitoring Team as described in FNP-0-EIP-4, "Health Physics Support to the Emergency Plan". The Field Monitoring Team will be capable of sampling under field conditions and will be capable of measuring radioiodine in the presence of noble gas and background radiation to as low as 5 x 10

-8 uCi/cc. 4. Population Exposure

57 Rev. 64 Exposure projections shall be periodically estimated in the affected sectors utilizing projected dose and measured dose rates. The Dose Assessment Supervisor will work with the state/local agency representatives to determine the Total Effective Dose Equivalent (TEDE) exposure (resulting from external exposure and inhalation of the plume and external exposure from deposition) and thyroid Committed Dose Equivalent (CDE) exposure (resulting from the inhalation of radio-iodines).

5. Environs Surveys and Monitoring

a. Short Term Assessment Short term assessment will involve the use of the estimates and projections provided by the emergency dose calculation com puter programs performed in accordance with NMP-EP-104, "Dose Assessments". Onsite and offsite surveys will be performed as necessary to verify release information or as a backup assessment method should the instrumentation used for dose assessment go off-scale or become inoperable. Monitoring teams will normally be dispatched in vehicles and will be equipped with two-way radios for communication with the TSC or EOF.

Teams will be equipped with liquid sampling equipment, a GM instrument, an ion chamber instrument, and/or an air sampler as deemed appropriate by the Emergency Director, Health Physics Supervisor or Dose Assessment Supervisor.

An environs survey team could be in the field within one hour. Radiological survey and sampling points will be identified by sector as shown in Figure 20. The correlation of various measured parameters (contamination levels, water and air activities) to dose rates for key isotopes and gross radioactivity levels is provided by FNP-0-RCP-25.

b. Long Term Assessment The long term aspects involving offsite assessments of contamination involving analysis of soil, vegetation, food, milk and water will be primarily handled by the states of Alabama, Georgia, and Florida as discussed in their Radiological Emergency Plans. The response of SNC would be to increase the sampling frequency of its established environmental monitoring program.

C. PROTECTIVE ACTIONS AND EMERGENCY ACTION LEVELS The nature of protective actions to be implemented, the criteria for application, and the area involved or groups of persons for whom the protective actions would be taken are given

here.

58 Rev. 56

1. Onsite Protective Action

a. Evacuation In the event of a Notification of Unusual Event an area of the turbine building, auxiliary building, or containment may have to be evacuated.

Personnel would be notified to evacuate the affected area via the public address system as directed by the Emergency Plan Implementing Procedures.

Should a Site Area Emergency, General Emergency, or an Alert be declared, immediate notification of all persons onsite may be accomplished by sounding the Plant Emergency Alarm and announcing the condition over the plant public address system.

Personnel onsite would report to their pre-assigned assembly area and preparations for evacuation of nonessential persons from the site would begin. Depending on the severity of the emergency condition, these individuals will be held in an

assembly area, evacuated, or returned to work.

If a site evacuation is warranted, personnel will be advised as to which routes should be used. The normal routes are State Highway 95 North or South and County Road 42 West (Figures 17 and 19). All personnel being evacuated from the site will be monitored before being released. Personnel leaving the site would then proceed, in their own vehicles, on one of these major routes, to their residences. Transportation for persons without vehicles will be arranged.

The details for evacuation and personnel accountability of all categories of personnel listed above are given in FNP-0-EIP-10, "Evacuation, Personnel Accountability, and Site Dismissal" and FNP-0-EIP-14 "Emergency Response Teams".

b. Personnel Accountability Each plant supervisor or the senior individual onsite from his group is responsible for accounting for all persons working in or visiting his group. Accountability within the Protected Area will be determined by the senior individual at the assembly area coordinating with the Security Response Center (SRC) and then will be reported to the Emergency Director by the senior plant security force member at the SRC. Accountability within the Controlled Area will be determined by the senior individual at each assembly area coordinating with the Security Response Center (SRC) Staff and then will be reported to the Emergency Director by the senior individual in the SRC. Contractor personnel assigned to Plant Modification and Maintenance Support (PMMS) report to the Fabrication Shop and will assemble by individual craft. Fitness for Duty Facility personnel outside the Protected Area report to the Visitor's Center Auditorium. No public access areas

59 Rev. 61 pass through or are within the owner controlled area. The owner controlled area is fenced and/or posted. Security patrols are conducted at random intervals as a part of daily routine. Detailed procedures for determining and reporting accountability and Responsibilities for accountability during local evacuations are given in FNP-0-EIP-10, "Evacuation, Personnel Accountability, and Site Dismissal".

Following accountability initiation, security personnel will control site access and egress for the duration of the emergency, maintaining entry/exit logs to allow accountability of all personnel onsite. c. Hostile Action Protective Measures

Onsite protection of employees during hostile action involves a combination of restricted movement, movement to safe locations, and site evacuation depending on the nature of the hostile event and advance warning. Site procedures provide specific actions to take during hostile action based events. These actions will be communicated to onsite personnel via the plant PA system and other communications means as applicable.

c. Contamination and Exposure Control Measures The limits for personnel exposure set forth in 10CFR20 shall not be exceeded without approval of the Emergency Director or his designee. Emergency exposure criteria are:

1) Farley Nuclear Plant personnel who have completed the onsite radiation protection training, may receive o 10 Rem When emergency onsite action is required to eliminate a source or potential source that represents a hazard to the general public or to prevent a substantial loss in property and a lower dose is not practicable.

o 25 Rem For life-saving operations such as rescue and search for known missing persons or for protection of large populations when a

lower dose is not practicable.

o >25 Rem but not to exceed 100 Rem For lifesaving or protection of large populations only on a voluntary basis. The volunteer worker should do so with full awareness of the associated risks for the radiation dose to be incurred.

2) Hospital and Ambulance Service Personnel, may receive o 3 Rem 60 Rev. 61 If there is an adequate number of attendants such that rotation may be accomplished without further endangering the patient(s).

o 5 Rem If the number of attendants is limited such that personnel cannot

be rotated.

o 25 Rem To save a life.

Dosimetry, respiratory protection equipment and protective clothing will be issued for use in accordance with established Radiological Control Procedures. A supply of radio protective drugs (potassium iodide) is available onsite and, if necessary, will be issued at the direction of the Emergency Director to emergency personnel remaining or arriving onsite.

The levels of permissible radioactive contamination for personnel and equipment to be released from an RCA during an emergency are as follows:

Personnel Equipment

<5,000 dpm/100 cm 2 ND GMT/100 cm 2 (smearable) and < .25 mR/hr (fixed)

However, the Emergency Director may authorize higher levels based on plant conditions and recommendations from the HP Supervisor. When levels above these values are encountered, decontamination will be initiated. Facilities, supplies and waste disposal capability exists to provide for both personnel (emergency or onsite relocated) and equipment decontamination. Methods for equipment decontamination are discussed in NMP-HP-304, "Decontamination of Areas, Tools, and Equipment" and for personnel in NMP-HP-303, "Personnel Decontamination" with particular attention being given to radioiodine contamination of the skin. Extra clothing for personnel will be provided in the event personal clothing is confiscated. Information on personnel decontamination facilities is contained in Section III.

To prevent or minimize direct or subsequent ingestion exposure to radioactive materials deposited on the ground or other surfaces, access into the exclusion area will be controlled by security personnel. Additionally, if conditions warrant, the site drinking water will be sampled and analyzed for radioactivity and quarantined, if necessary. If a quarantine is placed on the water, it will not be returned to use until the activity has returned to within acceptable limits as dictated by the State of Alabama Board of Health "Regulations Governing Public Water Supplies".

Personnel which are found to be contaminat ed when monitored during evacuation will be returned to the plant for deconning if possible. If the plant is not accessible, the personnel will be transported to the nearest decontamination facility.

Offsite contamination controls are described in the states of Alabama, Georgia, and Florida plans.

2. Offsite Protective Action The states of Alabama, Georgia, and Florida are responsible, in

61 Rev. 63 their respective state, for handling the offsite radiological aspects of any emergency that should develop at the Farley Nuclear Plant. The Emergency Plans for Alabama, Georgia, and Florida are given in each states Radiological Emergency Plan.

The criteria to be used for offsite protective action recommendations is given below. The basis for protective action guides is the "Manual of Protective Action Guides and Protective Action for Nuclear Incidents", EPA-400-R-92-001. It should be noted that these levels are quite low and are used as guidelines for protective action rather than rigid levels of action. Recommendation of sheltering in residences shall be considered when there is radiological puff release that exceeds the projected dosage for a general emergency listed in section a below or there are hazards on or off-site that would make an evacuation dangerous. Areas within a ten mile radius in which protective action is deemed necessary will be referred to by Evacuation Zone as shown in Figure 21. The population distribution within this ten-mile radius has been predicted for the life of the plant and is summarized graphically in Figure 22.

a. Classification of Offsite Incidents SNC Classification Projected Dosage Organ or Media Involved

GENERAL 1.0 Rem TEDE 5.0 Rem Thyroid CDE

SITE AREA 0.1 Rem TEDE 0.5 Rem Thyroid CDE

b. Response Classification Protective Actions to be Recommended to State Authorities GENERAL NMP-EP-112, "Protective Action Recommendations," provides detailed guidance on the methodology and determination of protective action recommendations (PARs). PARs were developed in accordance with NUREG-0654 Supplement 3 Rev. 1. Evacuation Time Estimates and Off-site Response Organizations were fully involved in the development of the PARs.

The Emergency Director will approve the PAR decision developed by the methodology in the Initial and Follow-Up Flowcharts, shown as Chart 1, Initial and Chart 2, Follow-Up. Recommendations will be based on plant conditions, projected dose estimates, or available monitoring data.

68 Rev. 61 V. ACTIVATION OF EMERGENCY ORGANIZATION A. DECLARATION OF AN EMERGENCY The Shift Manager shall have the authority and responsib ility to immediately and unilaterally declare an emergency and initiate emergency response.Section IV of this plan delineates criteria for declaring emergency conditions.

Upon declaration of an emergency the Shift Manager will immediately notify the on-call Emergency Director (ED). Until the on-call ED arrives onsite and relieves the Shift Manager, the Shift Manager shall complete the duties of the ED prior to the on-call ED taking full responsibility for implementation of the Emergency Plan. Duties of the Shift Manager as an Emergency Director are addressed in NMP-EP-110, "Emergency Classification Determination and Initial Action" and NMP-EP-111, "Emergency Notifications".

The ED, Shift Clerk, or designee will notify the EOF Manager of the emergency condition. The EOF Manager will decide on the appropriate level of activation utilizing the criteria shown in Table 4.

B. ORGANIZATION ACTIVATION

The minimum quantity of personnel available on shift and the quantity of additional personnel available within 75 minutes following declaration of the emergency to staff the emergency organization are shown in Table 3. A copy of the On-Shift Staffing Analysis which forms the technical basis for Minimum Shift Staffing provided in Table 3 is maintained in the SNC document management system. Reference OSA-FNP-001.

Each shift shall have a Shift Technical Advisor (STA). The STA will have No duties or responsibilities for manipulation of controls or command of operations during an emergency.

The normal shift crew will consist of at least those positions listed as "on shift" in Table 3. There will be a licensed operator in each unit's control room at all times when fuel is in the core of the respective unit. There will be a Senior Reactor Operator (SRO) in the control room (shared) at all times when fuel is in either core. Shift staffing for core alterations will also include either a SRO limited to fuel handling or a SRO not assigned any duties concurrent with core alterations.

Upon receiving notification of an emergency, the Emergency Director will proceed to the site. A shift communicator will coordinate the plant call list to notify those individuals of the Emergency Organization needed to meet initial activation requirements. The EOF Manager will be notified in accordance with NMP-EP-110, "Emergency Classification Determination and Initial Action".

During hostile action based events, ERO members would likely not have access to the onsite emergency response facilities. A security related emergency may delay the ordering of facility activation in order to protect plant personnel form the security threat. The decision to delay activation of the facilities will be made by the Emergency Director. In such cases, offsite ERO personnel will be directed to an alternative facility to minimize delays in overall site response by permitting ERO assembly without exposing responders to the danger of hostile action.

Criteria for the activation of the Technical Support Center, Operations Support Center, and Emergency Operations Facility are shown in Table 4.

69 Rev. 51

1. Notification

a. Primary

Southern Nuclear Operating Company has provided the administrative and physical means for alerting and providing prompt instructions to the public within the plume exposure pathway EPZ by providing an Alert and Notification System (ANS) for the entire plume exposure pathway EPZ. Primary alerting is accomplished by use of a siren system. The siren alerting system consists of 89 pole mounted sirens. Each siren operates on battery power with battery charge maintained through an inverter that receives power from the local electrical grid or from a solar panel. Each siren site contains two radios - one for the primary radio signal frequency operating in the UHF band and one for the backup radio frequency operating in the VHF band. Repeaters for the primary and backup radio frequencies are provided on two separate radio towers with associated power, control, and radio communication provided. Siren system activation, test, and monitoring panels are provided at each for the counties of Houston and Henry County, Alabama; one for Early County, Georgia; and one for the State of Georgia. Residents in the plume exposure pathway EPZ have been instructed to tune to specific emergency alert radio or TV stations if the sirens are activated.

Following activation of the siren system, emergency notifications will be made to the public within the 10 mile plume exposure pathway EPZ by activation of the Emergency Alert System (EAS). State and local Emergency Management Agencies will initiate activation of the local EAS stations through a dedicated EAS activation console. The EAS activation console provides a connection to designated EAS stations that allows for activation of the station through redundant communications pathways. Emergency messages are transmitted from the EAS activation console via phone line, internet, or satellite connections. Activation of the station does not require that the station be manned.

Emergency messages are coordinated between the local Emergency Management Agencies and the State Emergency Management Agencies prior to activation of the local radio stations, as specified in the local area plans. A full description of the Farley ANS design is provided in the FEMA approved ANS Design Report (ANS-FNP-001) in the SNC document management system.

77 Rev. 64 b. Special Alerting and System Backup

Special alerting is accomplished through the use of a calling system. Special alerting is initiated in the event of a failure of the system to activate multiple sirens resulting in a loss of coverage in any area. special alerting may be initiated for a predefined area, a user specified area, user defined groups, or the entire Emergency Planning Zone (EPZ). The calling system serves as a complete backup to the ANS. The system provides both alerting and notification of EPZ residents independent of the alerting capabilities provided by the installed siren system and notification capability of local radio and television stations through EAS. Capability for activation of the ca lling system is prov ided at each for the counties of Houston and Henry, Alabama, at Early, Georgia, and for the State of Georgia.

2. Information Processes for dissemination of information to local news media and the public annually are discussed in the Emergency Communications Plan, Appendix 10(J).

3. News Release Coordination and Rumor Control Processes for news release coordination and rumor control are discussed in the Emergency Communications Plan, Appendix 10(J).

C. NRC OFFICE OF INSPECTION AND ENFORCEMENT The Emergency Director or his designee will notify the Nuclear Regulatory Commission of any emergency condition utilizing the Emergency Notification System.

D. SAVANNAH RIVER OPERATIONS OFFICE If conditions warrant, immediate assistance will be requested by the Emergency Director from the DOE Savannah River Operations Office if their assistance is required to protect the health and safety of the general public.

METHODOLOGY Due to the unforeseeable conditions that would exist in an emergency condition, specific recovery criteria and procedures will be developed when required, considering maximum protection for plant personnel and the general public consistent with reasonable efforts to restore the affected Unit and continuing operation of the unaffected unit.

The decision to relax protective measures will be based upon a comprehensive review of plant system parameters. These shall include but not be limited

to the following:

1. Stability of the reactor shutdown condition i.e., successful movement toward a cold shutdown condition.

2. Integrity of the reactor containment building.

3. Operability of radioactive waste systems and decontamination facilities.

4. The availability and operability of a heat sink.

5. The integrity of power supplies and electrical equipment.

6. The operability and integrity of instrumentation including radiation monitoring equipment. In the latter instance this shall include portable equipment assigned to the emergency.

7. Availability of trained personnel and support services.

The Emergency Director will analyze the input from his advisors in the areas listed above to determine if plant restoration efforts can begin. The following criteria shall be considered appropriate for the consideration of relaxation of protective measures:

1. Plant parameters of operation no longer indicate a potential or actual emergency exists. 2. The release of radioactivity from the plant is controllable and no longer exceeds permissible levels and no danger to the public from this source is credible.

3. The plant is capable of sustaining itself in a long term shutdown condition.

4. Plant entry and clean-up is possible without workers receiving in excess of their permissible exposures.

E-1 Rev. 64 APPENDIX 5(E) EVACUATION TIME ESTIMATES FOR THE FARLEY NUCLEAR PLANT

In order to ensure the safety of the public living in the vicinity of nuclear power plants in the nation, the

U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) requires licensees to develop and update evacuation times estimates (ETEs) for areas within the emergency planning zone (EPZ). Updates are required following the availability of data from the decennial census (10 years) or when the sensitivity factor for changes in population within the EPZ has been exceeded. Population reviews will be conducted annually using the most recent US Census and local information. This appendix contains information from the ETE update performed in 2012. This update implements the requirements of the revised regulations relevant to ETE updates in accordance with the guidance provided in NUREG/CR-7002, Criteria for Development of Evacuation Time Estimate Studies Southern Nuclear Operating Company (SNC) contracted IEM to estimate evacuation times for the 2012 populations within the 10-mile plume exposure pathway emergency planning zone (EPZ) surrounding the Joseph M. Farley Nuclear Plant (FNP). This appendix provides a summary of the final report describing the methods used to obtain population data and to estimate evacuation times and estimated population figures, evacuation road network information, and ETEs.

The report provides a breakdown of the population by geographic areas and protective action zones (PAZ).1 Five categories of population are identified in the report:

Permanent residents

Transient population

Transit dependent permanent residents

Special facility residents

Schools.

The permanent resident population is made up of individuals residing in the 10-mile EPZ. The total year 2012 permanent resident populations within the 10-mile EPZ for FNP are estimated to be 7,188. The transient population consists of workers employed within the area, recreational sportsmen, and visitors. The total transient population within the 10-mile EPZ is estimated to be 4,734, which includes 600 transient workers at FNP. The school populations identified in the FNP EPZ include six schools, which are a combination of both public and private. In these analyses, IEM contacted the schools within the EPZ area to collect current enrollment and staff figures. The total peak population for the schools in the 10-mile EPZ is estimated to be 3,225. Transit dependent permanent residents in the 10-mile EPZ are estimated to be 94. This study also considered the voluntary evacuees, who are also known as shadow evacuees and consist of 20% of the residents within 10 to 15 miles from FNP.

1 NRC Criteria for Development of Evacuation Time Estimate Studies. NUREG/CR-7002. November 2011.

E-2 Rev. 61 IEM utilized a computer traffic simulation model, PTV Vision VISUM, to perform the ETE analyses. For the analyses, the 10-mile plume exposure pathway EPZ was divided into 25 unique geographic areas based on two-mile, five-mile, and ten-mile radius rings, the 16 22.5-degree PAZs, as well as keyhole and staged evacuation logic. In order to represent the most realistic emergency scenarios, evacuations for the 25 geographic evacuation areas were modeled individually for the midweek daytime, midweek - weekend evening, and weekend daytime scenarios. Each of these scenarios was then considered under both normal and adverse weather conditions using the 2012 population projections. A total of 150 evacuation scenarios were considered as part of this study to represent different wind, temporal, and seasonal weather conditions.

Both 100% and 90% ETEs for each scenario were collected. The 100% ETEs for 2012 normal weather conditions ranged from 2 hours2.314815e-5 days 5.555556e-4 hours 3.306878e-6 weeks 7.61e-7 months to 3 hours3.472222e-5 days 8.333333e-4 hours 4.960317e-6 weeks 1.1415e-6 months 20 minutes. The 100% ETEs for 2012 adverse weather conditions ranged from 2 hours2.314815e-5 days 5.555556e-4 hours 3.306878e-6 weeks 7.61e-7 months 5 minutes to 3 hours3.472222e-5 days 8.333333e-4 hours 4.960317e-6 weeks 1.1415e-6 months 25 minutes. The 90% ETEs for 2012 normal weather conditions ranged from 1 hour1.157407e-5 days 2.777778e-4 hours 1.653439e-6 weeks 3.805e-7 months 15 minutes to 1 hour1.157407e-5 days 2.777778e-4 hours 1.653439e-6 weeks 3.805e-7 months 50 minutes. The 90% ETEs for 2012 adverse weather conditions ranged from 1 hour1.157407e-5 days 2.777778e-4 hours 1.653439e-6 weeks 3.805e-7 months 20 minutes to 1 hour1.157407e-5 days 2.777778e-4 hours 1.653439e-6 weeks 3.805e-7 months 50 minutes. The factors that contributed to the variations in ETEs between scenarios include differences in the number of evacuating vehicles, the capacity of the evacuation r outes used, the type of warning systems within the zones, or the distance from the origin zones to the EPZ boundary.

Based on the data gathered and the results of the evacuation simulations, the existing evacuation strategy was determined to be functional for the 2012 conditions, given the lack of severe congestion or very high ETEs. Recommendations were provided for enhancements to improve the evacuation time estimate.

Assumptions utilized in the ETE will be reviewed when evaluating changes to roadways or evacuation networks to ensure the results of the ETE remain valid. Changes in population will be evaluated utilizing the sensitivity factor developed during the ETE analysis.

The full Evacuation Time Estimate was submitted for NRC review in accordance with NRC regulations (Evacuation Time Estimate (ETE) Updates 10 CF R 50, Appendix E,Section IV.3). Following the NRC review, the results of the study and recommendations will be reviewed with applicable offsite agencies.

The review will focus on the utilization of the results of the evacuation simulations provided in the ETE for comparison to existing protective action strategies. Modifications, if any, will be incorporated as part of the ongoing emergency planning process. SNC will work with OROs and maintain a protective action strategy using the applicable portions of NUREG 0654 Supplement III. (

EMERGENCY OPERATIONS FACILITY

G-i Rev. 41

G-1 Rev. 41 A. INTRODUCTION A.1 PURPOSE The purpose of this appendix is to outline the function of the Emergency Operations Facility for the Southern Nuclear Operating Company (SNC).

Additionally, this appendix delineates the actions to be taken by SNC Corporate Staff in the event of an emergency at any (SNC) site.

A.2 SCOPE AND APPLICABILITY This appendix provides the framework for operations of the EOF for SNC. This appendix is an integral part of the site specific emergency plan(s).

This appendix may be implemented to coordinate a SNC response to an emergency at any SNC facility or in response to a transportation accident involving radioactive material.

Additionally, this appendix provides the mechanism for obtaining and providing additional emergency response support and resources to SNC site(s) in the event of an emergency.

The SNC Corporate Staff will be responsible for offsite emergency response support and resources as requested. Overall management of the emergency will be accomplished at the specific site(s)[Vogtle Electric Generating Plant (VEGP), Hatch Nuclear Plant (HNP) and Farley Nuclear Plant (FNP)].

A.3

SUMMARY

The site specific Emergency Plan, is activated by the Emergency Director (ED). Upon notification of an ALERT or higher classification or as directed by the ED, the EOF will be activated as described in emergency implementing procedures. When notified, the designated corporate emergency organization management report to the EOF to be briefed on current conditions and perform their assigned tasks.

Each manager's support staff will operate from that group's office area. Offsite support personnel and equipment will be dispatched to the site Operations Support Center (OSC) or Technical Support Center (TSC)upon request from the specific site Emergency Director. The corporate emergency organization will provide offsite emergency response support and resources to SNC sites 24 hours2.777778e-4 days 0.00667 hours 3.968254e-5 weeks 9.132e-6 months per day

until the emergency has been terminated.

The EOF will be activated for an ALERT, SITE AREA or GENERAL emergency classification. This facility will be operational within about an hour of the initial notification. SNC's goal is to begin notification of all required on-call Emergency Response Organization (ERO) personnel as soon as practicable, within 15 minutes, following the declaration of an Alert emergency or higher emergency classification at any SNC site. Minimum EOF staff for facility activation will include the EOF Manager, the Dose Assessment Supervisor, the Dose Analyst, the Field Team Coordinator, the ENN Communicator, and the Licensing Support

Coordinator.

Access control for the EOF is established through the use of electronic card readers.

G-2 Rev. 41 During the emergency, the emergency director will normally be located in either the TSC or Control Room at his/her option. The emergency director is responsible for the management of the emergency response. Specific duties and responsibilities are provided in the site specific Emergency Plan and Emergency Plan Implementing Procedures.

SNC has taken precautions to ensure that the EOF can be quickly accessed and made operational within about an hour of the initial notification and is safe-guarded against unauthorized personnel. The common EOF is located in a secure building. The building itself has posted security guards and video surveillance cameras. Any outside doors that do not have security guards are accessible only by SNC ID badges. Additionally, the EOF facility door is accessible only to people with ID badges that have been pre-approved for access. If an event were to occur during off-normal hours, a guard will be posted at the main entrance to Building 40 to allow access to offsite agency or other responders without pre-designated ID access.

B. EOF ORGANIZATION

The EOF Organization consists of selected management and staff members located in the SNC Corporate Office. This organization is responsible for providing offsite emergency response support and resources, as needed. The EOF Organization is displayed in Figure 1 and typical duty assignments are shown on Table 1. This organization may be supplemented or reduced by the EOF Manager, as required, to respond to the specific emergency situation but will not be reduced to below the minimum staff as specified in A.3 above.

SNC normally maintains ERO positions in a duty rotation. Several positions have been designated as plant specific and, as such, have personnel designated for each of the 3 sites. Specifically each of the following EOF positions has site-specific personnel designated: EOF Manager

G-3 Rev.49 EOF Technical Supervisor In order to augment additional staff that may be needed in the unlikely event of a multi-site accident, SNC will re-activate its ERO notification system. When the EOF is activated, all EOF staff pagers are activated, and all EOF personnel are expected to report to the EOF. Personnel that are not needed to augment positions are briefed and dismissed with a stand-by status.

B.1 EMERGENCY OPERATIONS FACILITY (EOF) MANAGER The EOF Manager manages the following activities:

Overall direction and control of the offsite response for SNC

Communication of radiological information to State and local emergency response agencies as needed

After consultation with the ED, provides support for initial activities associated with planning for recovery operations.

The duties and responsibilities of the EOF Manager will be assumed by designated SNC corporate personnel. The designated individual will be assigned according to a predetermined rotation schedule and will typically have either previous plant specific operational expertise or long-term supervisory/management

C.1 NOTIFICATION OF CORPORATE MANAGEMENT The On-call EOF Manager will be notified of all emergencies classified at any SNC site. The EOF Manager is responsible for activation of the EOF Staff and notifying the appropriate Corporate Management.

1. The EOF Manager is responsible for assuring that the Corporate Emergency Organization is notified 2. The EOF Manager will also be responsible for ensuring that the corporate emergency staff members report directly to the EOF. 3. Notification of personnel may be accomplished through the use of an automated or manual system.

C.2 NOTIFICATION OF OFFSITE SUPPORT AGENCIES Offsite support agencies will be notified by the appropriate emergency organization member(s), as requested by VEGP, FNP, and HNP.

G-11 Rev. 41 D. EMERGENCY FACILITIES AND EQUIPMENT Following the declaration of an emergency, response activity will be coordinated at a number of facilities. These emergency response facilities are described in the site specific emergency plans. The EOF is a common facility for all SNC sites and is described in this section.

D.1 EOF DESCRIPTION The EOF is the central location for management of the offsite emergency response, coordination of radiological assessment, and management of initial recovery operations. The EOF is located in Birmingham, Alabama and serves as the EOF for all SNC sites (VEGP, FNP, and HNP). The EOF will be activated as prescribed in the site specific Emergency Plan implementing procedures. From the EOF, SNC corporate management personnel assist the states and other governmental bodies by communicating protective action recommendations approved by the Emergency Director to ensure public health and safety. Plant systems information, radiological data, and meteorological data are provided via the SNC Integrated Data Display System to EOF personnel as needed to: assess environmental conditions, coordinate radiological monitoring activities, and recommend implementation of offsite emergency plans. Data displays provide periodic and timely conditions of the affected plant and periodic and timely assessment of radiological conditions in the plant environs.

The SNC integrated data display system utilizes data provided by the plant specific data links. These station data links are described in each site specific plan. These displays may be either manual or electronic. Data displays are located in the main caucus area of the EOF, dose assessment area, plant status area, and engineering area within the facility. Other displays may be located in the command center area. Data is also available to all state agencies responding to the EOF. Data is available both in the main caucus area and the area designated for the particular state agency. Similarly, this data is available to state and local authorities via a secure network dedicated to data distribution among the various offsite emergency response facilities. The data display system provides the user with a "master view" for the monitoring of multiple site events simultaneously. Data required to support EOF operations is provided by an extensive ring bus transport network. Data may also be obtained manually via telephone from the Control Room and the TSC to the EOF.

G-12 Rev. 41 Contained within the facility will be the manpower and equipment necessary to provide dedicated direct communication links to the plant site(s). In addition, there are commercial and company wide phone systems to and from the site(s). A communication link will be established and maintained between the Emergency Operations Facility and the Technical Support Center (TSC) until the emergency director determines that the communication link is no longer needed.

Other communications equipment accessible to the EOF includes Nuclear Network (an intra-industry computer-based information exchange network),

telecopiers, and computer workstations designated for emergency use. Computer workstations are dedicated for performing dose assessment for multiple sites.

The EOF is the distribution center for all field data and sample analyses. This information will be available to county, State, and Federal representatives. The EOF is sized to accommodate 35 persons, including 25 pre-designated persons, 9 persons from the NRC, and 1 person from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). Provisions have also been made for the relocation of NRC staff (including NRC communications capabilities) from the EOF to a near-site location, if requested. It is anticipated that representatives from the state(s) of Georgia, South Carolina, Alabama, and Florida will be dispatched to the EOF for an event at specific SNC site(s). The EOF has been designed to accommodate these representatives. Agreements exist between the appropriate State agencies and SNC to ensure rapid response of state personnel dispatched to the EOF. Table 4 provides additional information concerning EOF communications capabilities.

Upon activation of the EOF, Corporate personnel will provide staffing 24 hours2.777778e-4 days 0.00667 hours 3.968254e-5 weeks 9.132e-6 months per day until directed otherwise by the Emergency Director.

The emergency director, located at the affected site(s), is responsible for the management of the emergency response. Specific duties and responsibilities are provided in the site specific Emergency.

The EOF consists of several rooms, as shown, together with the location of key personnel, in Figure 2. The EOF is a dedicated facility. The designated emergency planning coordinator for each of the three sites maintains an office within the EOF to ensure readiness and daily operability.

Based on the physical location of the EOF, specialized ventilation systems are not required. The EOF ventilation system is consistent in design with G-13 Rev. 41 standard building codes. Similarly, EOF functions would not be interrupted by radiation releases from any SNC site.

Normal power to the EOF is from a reliable offsite source. Emergency lighting is provided by battery operated lights. Back-up power for the EOF is supplied by onsite diesel generation. All essential equipment is backed up by the diesel generation system.

The EOF is located adjacent to the document management section for SNC.

The following records or information are available:

Technical Specifications.

Selected plant operating procedures.

Emergency Plans.

Emergency Plan Implementing Procedures.

FSARs.

State and local emergency response plans.

Savannah River Site Emergency Plan.

The following records or information can be transmitted to the EOF manually, electronically or by facsimile:

Environs radiological monitoring records.

SNC employee radiation exposure histories.

System piping and instrumentation diagrams and HVAC flow diagrams.

Piping area diagrams.

Electrical one-line, elementary, and wiring diagrams. The above records or information are available in current form and updated as necessary to ensure currency and completeness. Operations at this facility are directed by the EOF manager.

D.2 Contingency Planning Optimum functionality and availability was considered in the decision to locate the EOF in Birmingham, Alabama. At this location, functionality of the EOF would be uninterrupted by radiation releases, natural phenomena, and security based events at any of the SNC sites. Support operations and coordination with Federal, State and local organizations would continue. If personnel were to be dispatched to the sites, then personal protection equipment would be available

from G-14 Rev. 44 the local emergency management agency or from one of the unaffected SNC plant sites.

In the unlikely event that individuals should need to respond to the EOF from within the 10 mile EPZ of any SNC plant, they would be surveyed prior to release by local emergency authorities at the reception centers in accordance with State and Local emergency response plans.

In the unlikely event that the EOF becomes uninhabitable, resources and personnel will be transferred to the Corporate Headquarters of Alabama Power Company, located in Birmingham, Alabama. These actions will be taken as part of the normal business continuity plan.

E. COORDINATION WITH GOVERNMENTAL AGENCIES The site specific Emergency Plan(s) delineate the governmental agencies to be notified and specifies the information to be initially conveyed. It is anticipated that representatives of various agencies will be dispatched to the EOF for an event at an SNC facility. Arrangements have been made between the appropriate State agencies and SNC to ensure rapid response of state personnel dispatched to the EOF.

E.1 U.S. NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION Coordination with the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) may be underway at several locations simultaneously. For details of the NRC response, see the NRC Incident Response Plan NUREG 0728.

Initial notification of the NRC will proceed as specified in the site specific Emergency Plan. The resident NRC inspector(s) and plant personnel have direct communications from the site control room to the NRC headquarters in Rockville, Maryland. and to the regional headquarters in Atlanta, Georgia.

The resident inspector(s) may be reinfo rced by additional NRC personnel shortly after notification of an emergency. The Emergency Director is responsible for coordinating NRC activities to reduce duplication of effort and reduce impact on the plant staff during the emergency situation.

Provisions have been made to have direct NRC FTS lines in the TSC and the

EOF during an emergency. This will allow personnel in the control room to continue responding to the emergency while personnel in the TSC or EOF respond to questions and input from the NRC.

G-15 Rev. 41 NRC activities requiring response from the licensee will be coordinated by the EOF Technical Coordinator through the EOF manager.

E.2 STATE GOVERNMENTAL AGENCIES The government notifications are outlined in the site specific Emergency Plan(s).

Coordination of offsite responses to the emergency is the responsibility of State agencies as outlined in the State Radiological Emergency Response Plans.

E.3 LOCAL GOVERNMENTAL AGENCIES Notification of local government officials is outlined in the site specific Emergency Plan(s). Coordination with local government agencies will normally be through the responsible State agency.

E.4 DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY Notification of DOE officials is outlined in the site specific Emergency Plan.

RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE PLANNING EFFORT

I-1 Rev. 61 Responsibility for the Planning Effort The Executive Vice President/Chief Nuclear Officer (CNO)Southern Nuclear Operating Company(SNC)has overall responsibility and authority for all nuclear activities, including the emergency planning (EP) programs. Reporting to the Executive Vice President is the Vice President Fleet Operation Support and the Vice President -

Nuclear Plant Site. The SNC Emergency Planning program is comprised of two distinct and integral functions; emergency planning and emergency preparedness. Responsibility for the performance of these functions is assigned to various members of the SNC Organization and coordinated as follows. Emergency Planning: The Vice President Regulatory Affairs has Fleet responsibility for emergency planning. The Fleet Emergency Preparedness Manager has overview management responsibility for the Fleet SNC Emergency Planning program effort. The Fleet Emergency Preparedness Manager is responsible for overseeing emergency planning activities offsite and coordinating those activities with Licensee, Federal, State and local response organizations. The Emergency Planning Coordinator(s) reports to the Fleet Emergency Preparedness Manager in support of this effort. The Emergency Plans are maintained by the Fleet Security and Emergency Preparedness Manager. The Fleet Emergency Preparedness Manager provides strategic direction for SNC emergency planning and coordinates with site management through the Vice President - Fleet Operations Support. The Emergency Planning Coordinator(s) coordinate site input and involvement in emergency planning programs with the Emergency Preparedness Supervisor. The Emergency Planning Coordinator(s) review Emergency Plan changes to determine if the effectiveness of the specific plans have been reduced. Emergency Plan changes which are judged to reduce the effectiveness of the Plan will be submitted to the NRC for approval prior to implementation.

Emergency Preparedness:

The Vice President - (Nuclear Plant Site) is responsible for the site Emergency Preparedness aspects of the program. The Emergency Preparedness Supervisor is responsible for coordinating emergency preparedness activities onsite and supports offsite emergency preparedness activities in the vicinity of the plant. The Emergency Preparedness Supervisor reports through the Regulatory Affairs Manager to the Vice President - (Nuclear Plant Site). The Emergency Planning Supervisor is responsible to the Regulatory Affairs Manager for implementation of emergency planning strategies.

Coordination: The Fleet Emergency Preparedness Manager coordinates site input and involvement in emergency planning programs with the Emergency Preparedness Supervisor. The Emergency Preparedness Supervisor is responsible for the implementation of the Emergency Plan and procedure development and maintenance. Figure 1 shows the EP Organization. The Fleet Emergency Preparedness Manager, Emergency Planning Coordinator, Emergency Preparedness Supervisor, and other individuals with emergency planning responsibilities are trained by self-study and by attending industry seminars, short courses, workshops, etc. Onsite Emergency Plan Implementing Procedures (EIPs) are maintained by the Regulatory Affairs Manager with the Emergency Preparedness Supervisor being the principal site contact. EIPs for the corporate emergency response organization and procedures governing fleet emergency planning activities are maintained by the Fleet Emergency Preparedness Manager. The Fleet Emergency Preparedness Manager or designee performs a review of the site specific emergency plan annually and all onsite EIPs biennially. The review includes the letters of agreement, which are updated as necessary.

I-2 Rev. 61 The Fleet Emergency Preparedness Manager performs a review of the emergency plans for Southern Nuclear once each calendar year. The review includes a comparison for consistency of all emergency plans for the specific sites including the Security Plan, State, County, and the Savannah River Site plan, as appropriate.

The Emergency plans and EIPs are revised in accordance with applicable site procedures.

Emergency Plan changes which are judged to re duce the effectiveness of the Plan will be submitted to the NRC for approval prior to implementation. The Emergency Planning Coordinator will review Emergency Plan changes to determine if the effectiveness of the site specific plan has been reduced prior to submitting the proposed change for departmental review

and subsequently to the PRB for approval.

As required by 10CFR50.54(t). An annual independent audit of the emergency preparedness program is conducted by the SNC Nuclear Oversight Department. This audit is conducted as part of the standard audit program and will include a review of the Emergency Plan, its implementing procedures and practices, emerge ncy preparedness training, annual exercises, equipment, and emergency response facilities. In addition, an audit of the interfaces with offsite agencies is performed by the SNC Nuclear Oversight department.

Each audit is nominally conducted every 12 months.

Audits are performed in accordance with SNC Nuclear Oversight department procedures. Audit reports are written and distributed to management and, in addition, applicable portions of the corporate audit reports are made available to affected Federal, State, and local agencies, as appropriate, in accordance with 10CFR50.54(t).

Appropriate departments are responsible for implementing corrective actions resulting from the audit findings. Records of these audits and exercise findings are maintained in accordance with plant procedures.

In addition to this Plan, several other formal emergency plans have been developed to support the overall emergency response effort. These su pporting plans and their sources are listed in procedure NMP-EP-300, SNC Corporate Emerge ncy Preparedness, Conduct of Operations.

18.0 PUBLIC INFORMATION AND EDUCATION PROGRAM

The goal of the public information program is to acquaint the general public with the emergency plans fo r the operation of APC/GP C nuclear plants, as appropriate, and actions the general public should take if a radiological emergency occurs. Such a program is ess ential to the overall welfare of area citizens. Any incident involving a nucl ear plant or nuclear materials can easily become a "crisis" in the minds of t hose living in the area, unless they understand the plans and programs in place to respond should an emergency occur.

J-19 Rev. 64 Only by keeping the public well informed will the Plants be able to operate for the maximum benefit of all concerned.

The Public Education and Information Program will seek to:

Explain to the public how they will be notified should an emergency occur at the plant. This will include informa tion on the siren not ification system and the reverse calling system, as appropriate.

Educate the public about radiation and contamination.

Help the public understand what thei r initial actions should be in an emergency.

Familiarize the public wit h protective actions, e.g. evacuation routes and relocation centers, and sheltering which may be required and rationale

behind recommendations for these actions.

Provide information concerning me thods for receiving additional information

Ensure that special needs of the handicapp ed are understood A. In order to help assure proper public reaction to an emergency notification, Alabama Power, Georgia Power and S outhern Nuclear will keep state and local officials continuously informed of all details related to any emergency.

B. Several communications methods may be used to acquaint the public with plans for their protection during a Plant emergency. Means for accomplishing these methods will include one or more of the following activities as listed below. Effort will be concentrated upon providing information to the public by written material that is likely to be available in the residence and in locations frequented by transients. The information will also provide instructions as to what local media (radio and television stations) will be providing additional information in the event of an emergency.

1. Placement of an advertisement in local telephone directories.

2. Information in utility bills, J-20 Rev. 60 3. Signs displayed in public areas within the plume exposure EPZ. (e.g., commercial establishments, areas used by sportsmen, motels, gasoline stations, phone booths, etc.) Sign cont ent and location distribution will be revised and redistributed as needed,

4. Distribution of an emergency information publications/leaflets,

5. Television or Radio,

6. Emergency Calendars,

7. Direct Mail-Newsletters,

8. Visitor Center availability to t he public (when not restricted for Security reasons),

9. Information exchange meetings with government agencies and local officials as needed.

ASSESSMENT ACTIONS

K-1 Rev. 52 ASSESSMENT ACTIONS

1. CLASSIFICATION OF EMERGENCIES The classification system is based on the four emergency classes described in 10CFR50 Appendix E and NUREG 0654, established by th e Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC), for grouping off-normal nuclear power plant conditions according to (1) their relative radiological seriousness, and (2) the time-sensitive onsite and off-site radiological emergency preparedness actions necessary to respond to such conditions. The existing radiological emergency classes, in asce nding order of seriousness, are called:

Notification of Unusual Event (NOUE)

Alert

Site Area Emergency (SAE)

General Emergency (GE) The classes, therefore, determine initial step s to be taken by on site and by corporate emergency response personnel. The emergency classes are used by offsite authorities to determine which of the preplanned actions to be taken by their emergency organizations.

An emergency classification is indicative of the status of the plant. Inputs to the emergency classification system include the status of various plant systems, ra diation levels in and around plant areas, and the rate of release of radi oactivity from the plant. These are termed Initiating Conditions which are a predetermined subset of nuclear power plant conditions where either the potential exists for a radiological emergency, or such an emergency has occurred.

The SNC classification scheme is based on NEI 99-01, Rev 4, Methodology for Development of Emergency Action Leve ls, January 2003 endorsed by Reg Guide 1.101, Rev 4, Emergency Planning and Preparedness for Nuclear Power Reactors. The Initiating Conditions lead each plant to a classification Implementing Procedure which contains the Threshold values for each Initiating Condition.

Each Initiating Condition has specific conditions associated that ar e termed Threshold Values. When an Initiating Condition is observed and the criteria of it's associated Threshold Values are met, an Emergency Action Level is met and the event is then classified and declared at the appropriate level.

The SNC Classification procedures are written to classify events based on meeting the Initiating Condition (IC) and a Threshold Value (TV) for an EAL considering each Unit independently. During events, the ICs and TVs are monitored and if conditions meet another higher EAL, that higher emergency classification is decl ared and appropriate notifications made. Notifications are made on a site basis. If both units are in concurrent classifications, the highest cla ssification would be used for the notification and the other unit classification noted on the notification form.

At all times, when conditions present themselves that are not explicit ly provided in the EAL scheme the Emergency Director has discreti on to declare an event based on his knowledge of the emergency classes and judgment of the situation or condition.

K-2 Rev. 48 Once an emergency classification is ma de, it cannot be downgraded to a lower classification. All the actions associated with the emergency classification level must be completed and then a termination of the event can be affected. At termination, on an event specific basis, the site can either enter normal operating conditions or enter a recovery condition with a recovery organization established for turnover from the ERO.

The described emergency classes and the emergency action levels which determine them are agreed on by SNC and State and local authorities. The emergency action levels will be reviewed by these officials annually.

a. Notification of Unusual Event

1. Description The classification of Notification of Unusual Event applies to situations in which events are in process or have occurred which indicate a potential degradation of the level of safety of the plant or indicate a security threat to facility protection has been initiated. No releases of radioactive material requiring offsite response or monitoring are expected unless further degradation of safety systems occurs.

2. Response In the event of a Notification of Unusual Event, the Shift Manager will assesses the conditions and implement the Classification EIP.

The Emergency Organization will perform the following:

1) Inform State and local offsite authoriti es of the nature of the unusual event within 15 min. of classifying the emergency. Notify the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) as soon as possibl e (ASAP) but no later than 1 hour1.157407e-5 days 2.777778e-4 hours 1.653439e-6 weeks 3.805e-7 months following classification of the emergency.

2) Augment on-shift re sources, as needed.

3) Assess and respond to the event.

4) Escalate to a more severe class, if appropriate, or close out with a verbal summary to offsite authorities followed by a written summary within 24

Description The classification of Alert applies to situa tions in which events are in process or have occurred which involve an, actual or potential substantial degradation of the level of safety of the plant or a secu rity event that involves probable life threatening risk to site personnel or damage to site equipment because of intentional malicious dedicat ed efforts of hostile ac tion. Any releases of K-3 Rev. 48 radioactive material for the Alert classification are expected to be limited to small fractions of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Protective Action Guideline (PAG) exposure levels. The purpos e of offsite alert is to assure that emergency personnel are readily availabl e to respond if the situation becomes more serious or to perform confirmatory radiation monitoring if required and to provide offsite authorities current status information.

2. Response In the event of an Alert the Shift Manager will assess the conditions and implement the Classification EIP. The Emergency Organization will then perform the following:

1) Within 15 min. of classification, inform State and local offsite authorities of Alert Emergency and reasons for emergency. Notify the NRC ASAP but no later than 1 hour1.157407e-5 days 2.777778e-4 hours 1.653439e-6 weeks 3.805e-7 months following classification of the emergency.

11) Escalate to General Emergency, if appropriate, or close out the emergency class by briefing of offsite authorities followed by written summary within 8

hours of closeout.

d. General Emergency

1. Description The classification of General Emergency applies to those events which are in progress or have occurred which involve actual or imminent substantial core degradation or melting with potential loss of containment integrity or security events that result in an actual loss of phys ical control of the facility. Release of radioactive material for the General Emer gency classification can reasonably be expected to exceed EPA Protective Action Guideline exposure levels offsite for more than the immediate site area.

K-5 Rev. 48 2. Response In the event of a General Emergency the Shift Manager will assess the conditions and implement the Classification EIP.

The Emergency Organization will then perform the following:

11) Close out the emergency class by briefing of offsite authorities followed by written summary within 8 hours9.259259e-5 days 0.00222 hours 1.322751e-5 weeks 3.044e-6 months of closeout.

K-6 Rev. 55 2. CLASSIFICATION PROCESS The Classification Emergency Plan Implemen ting Procedure is used to classify the emergency condition upon recognition of an off- normal condition relative to an Initiating Condition.

Two Initiating Condition Matrices and a Fission Product Barrier Evaluation table are used depending on the initial mode of the unit. The Hot Initiating Condition matrix and the Fission Product Barrier Evalua tion table are used when the unit is in the Technical Specification defined modes of Hot S hutdown, Hot Standby , Startup and Power Operation. A Cold Initiating Condition matrix is used when the unit is in the Cold Shutdown, Refueling, or Defueled modes. The IC Matrices are human factored to read from top to bottom General Emergency to Notif ication of Unusual Event within a category or subcategory.

To facilitate the expeditious classification of emergencies, the various initiating conditions which may result in an emergency class are grouped into six rec ognition categories as follows:

Radiological (Hot and Cold - R series)

Fission Product Barriers (Hot - F series)

System Malfunctions (Hot - S series)

System Malfunctions (Cold - C series)

ISFSI (Hot and Cold - E series)

Hazards (Hot and Cold - H series) Within each category, sub categories and specific Initiating Conditions are identified.

Each Initiating Condition has specific conditions associated that are termed Threshold Values. These Initiating Conditions, Threshold Values, and bases are provided in this Appendix.

The capability to assess, classify, and declare an emergency condition within 15 minutes after the availability of indications to plant operators that an EAL has been exceeded has been established and is outlined in applicable procedures. Emergency conditions are classified promptly upon identification that an emergency ac tion level (EAL) threshold has been exceeded.

The 15-minute period encompasses all assessmen t, classification, and declaration actions associated with making an emergency declaration from the first availability of a plant indication or receipt of a report of an off-normal condition by plant operators up to and including the declaration of the emergency. If classifications and declarations are performed away from the CR, all delays incurred in transferring information from the CR (where the alarms, indications, and reports are first received) to the ERF (at which declarations are made) are included within the 15-minute criterion.

Operating Mode Applicability:

All Threshold Values:

(1 OR 2 OR 3) NOTE: If dose assessment results are avail able at the time of declaration, the classification should be based on Thres hold Value #2 instead of Threshold Value #1.While necessary declarations should not be delayed awaiting results, the dose assessment should be initiated / completed in order to determine if the classification should be subsequently escalated.

NOTE: The Emergency Director should not wait until 15 minutes has elapsed, but should declare the event as soon as it is determined that the release duration has or will likely exceed 15 minutes.

1. VALID reading on any of the following radiation monitors that exceeds OR expected to exceed the reading shown for 15 minutes OR longer:

Steam jet Air Ejector RE-15C 130 Ci/cc (130 R/hr) Plant Vent Stack RE-29B (NG) 0.9 Ci/cc Steam Generator Relief RE-60A,B,C 0.5 Ci/cc (0.5 R/hr) TDAFW Steam Exhaust RE-60D 11 Ci/cc (11 R/hr)

2. Dose assessment using actual meteorology indicates doses greater than 1,000 mR TEDE OR 5,000 mR thyroid CDE at OR beyond the site boundary. 3. Field survey results indicate closed window dose rates exceeding 1,000 mR/hr expected to continue for more than one hour; OR analyses of field survey samples indicate thyroid CDE of 5,000 mR for one hour of inhalation, at OR beyond site boundary.

Basis: VALID: an indication, report, or condition, is considered to be VALID when it is verified by (1) an instrument channel check, or (2) indications on related or redundant indicators, or (3) by direct observation by plant personnel, such that doubt related to the indicator's operability, the condition's existence, or the report's accuracy is removed. Implicit in this definition is the need for timely assessment.

K-11 Rev. 48 This IC addresses radioactivity releases that result in doses at or beyond the site boundary that exceed the EPA Protective Action Guides (PAGs). Public protective actions will be necessary. Releases of this magnitude are associated with the failure of plant systems needed for the protection of the public and likely involve fuel damage. While these failures are addressed by other ICs, this IC provides appropriate diversity and addresses events which may not be able to be classified on the basis of plant status alone. It is important to note that, for the more severe accidents, the release may be unmonitored or there may be large uncertainties associated with the source term and/or meteorology.

The Emergency Director should not wait until 15 minutes has elapsed, but should declare the event as soon as it is determined that the release duration has or will likely exceed 15

minutes.

The monitor reading Threshold Values are determined using a dose assessment method that back calculates from the dose values specified in the IC. The meteorology and source term (noble gases, particulates, and halogens) used are the same as those used for determining the monitor reading Threshold Values in ICs RU1 and RA1. This protocol will maintain intervals between the Threshold Values for the four classifications. Since doses are generally not monitored in real-time, a release duration of one hour is assumed, and that the Threshold Values are based on a site boundary (or beyond) dose of 1,000 mR/hour whole body or 5,000 mR/hour thyroid, whichever is more limiting.

Since dose assessment is based on actual meteorology, whereas the monitor reading Threshold Values are not, the results from these assessments may indicate that the classification is not warranted, or may indicate that a higher classification is warranted. For this reason, emergency implementing procedures call for the timely performance of dose assessments using actual meteorology and release information. If the results of these dose assessments are available when the classification is made the dose assessment results override the monitor reading Threshold Values. Classification should not be delayed pending the results of these dose assessments.

K-12 Rev. 62 RS1 Initiating Condition Offsite Dose Resulting from an Actual or Imminent Release of Gaseous Radioactivity Exceeds 100 mR TEDE OR 500 mR Thyroid CDE for the Actual or Projected Duration of the Release.

NOTE: The Emergency Director should not wait until 15 minutes has elapsed, but should declare the event as soon as it is determined that the release duration has or will likely exceed 15 minutes.

1. VALID reading on any of the following radiation monitors that exceeds OR is expected to exceed the reading shown for 15 minutes OR longer: Steam jet Air Ejector RE-15C 13 Ci/cc (13 R/hr) Plant Vent Stack RE-29B (NG) 0.09 Ci/cc Steam Generator Relief RE-60A,B,C 0.05 Ci/cc (0.05 R/hr) TDAFW Steam Exhaust RE-60D 1.1 Ci/cc (1.1 R/hr)

2. Dose assessment using actual meteorology indicates doses greater than 100 mR TEDE OR 500 mR thyroid CDE at OR beyond the site boundary.

3. Field survey results indicate closed window dose rates exceeding 100 mR/hr expected to continue for more than one hour; OR analyses of field survey samples indicate thyroid CDE of 500 mR for one hour of inhalation, at OR beyond the site boundary.

Basis: VALID: an indication, report, or condition, is considered to be VALID when it is verified by (1) an instrument channel check, or (2) indications on related or redundant indicators, or (3) by direct observation by plant personnel, such that doubt related to the indicator's operability, the K-13 Rev. 48 condition's existence, or the report's accuracy is removed. Implicit in this definition is the need for timely assessment.

This IC addresses radioactivity releases that result in doses at or beyond the site boundary that exceed a small fraction of the EPA Protective Action Guides (PAGs). Releases of this magnitude are associated with the failure of plant systems needed for the protection of the public.

The Emergency Director should not wait until 15 minutes has elapsed, but should declare the event as soon as it is determined that the release duration has or will likely exceed 15 minutes.

The monitor reading Threshold Values are determined using a dose assessment method that back calculates from the dose values specified in the IC. The meteorology and source term (noble gases, particulates, and halogens) used is the same as those used for determining the monitor reading Threshold Values in ICs RU1 and RA1. This protocol maintains intervals between the Threshold Values for the four classifications. Since doses are generally not monitored in real-time, a release duration of one hour is assumed, and that the Threshold Values be based on a site boundary (or beyond) dose of 100 mR/hour whole body or 500 mR/hour thyroid, whichever is more limiting.

The release rates which result in site boundary doses of 100 mR TEDE are in excess of the range of the monitors listed in RU1 and RA1.

Since dose assessment is based on actual meteorology, whereas the monitor reading Threshold Values are not, the results from these assessments may indicate that the classification is not warranted, or may indicate that a higher classification is warranted. For this reason, emergency implementing procedures should call for the timely performance of dose assessments using actual meteorology and release information. If the results of these dose assessments are available when the classification is made (e.g., initiated at a lower classification level), the dose assessment results override the monitor reading Threshold Values. Classification should not be delayed pending the results of these dose assessments.

K-14 Rev. 64 RA1 Initiating Condition Any UNPLANNED Release of Gaseous or Li quid Radioactivity to the Environment that Exceeds 200 Times the Radiological Effluent Technical Specifications for 15 Minutes or Longer.

Operating Mode Applicability:

All Threshold Values:

(1 OR 2 OR 3) NOTE: The Emergency Director should not wait until 15 minutes has elapsed, but should declare the event as soon as it is determined that the release duration has or will likely exceed 15 minutes.

Confirmed sample analyses for gaseous or liquid releases indicates concentrations OR release rates in excess of 200 times Technical Specification 5.5.4.b as confirmed by ODCM , with a release duration of 15 minutes OR longer.

K-15 Rev. 48 Basis: UNPLANNED: a parameter change or an event that is not the result of an intended evolution and requires corrective or mitigative actions.

VALID: an indication, report, or condition, is considered to be VALID when it is verified by (1) an instrument channel check, or (2) indications on related or redundant indicators, or (3) by direct observation by plant personnel, such that doubt related to the indicator's operability, the condition's existence, or the report's accuracy is removed. Implicit in this definition is the need for timely assessment.

This IC addresses a potential or actual decline in the level of safety of the plant as indicated by a radiological release that exceeds regulatory commitments for an extended period of time. The occurrence of extended, uncontrolled radioactive releases to the environment is indicative of a degradation in these features and/or controls.

UNPLANNED, as used in this context, includes any release for which a radioactivity discharge permit was not prepared, or a release that exceeds the conditions (e.g., minimum dilution flow, maximum discharge flow, alarm setpoints, etc.) on the applicable permit. The Emergency Director should not wait until 15 minutes has elapsed, but should declare the event as soon as it is determined that the release duration has or will likely exceed 15 minutes.

Also, if an ongoing release is detected and the starting time for that release is unknown, the Emergency Director should, in the absence of data to the contrary, assume that the release has

exceeded 15 minutes.

Threshold Value #1 addresses radioactivity releases that for whatever reason cause effluent radiation monitor readings that exceed two hundred times the alarm setpoint established by the radioactivity discharge permit. This alarm setpoint may be associated with a planned batch release, or a continuous release path.

Threshold Value #2 is similar to Threshold Value #1, but is intended to address effluent or accident radiation monitors on non-routine release pathways for which a discharge permit would not normally be prepared.

Threshold Value #3 addresses uncontrolled releases that are detected by sample analyses, particularly on unmonitored pathways, e.g., spills of radioactive liquids into storm drains, heat exchanger leakage in river water systems, etc.

Threshold Values #1 and #2 directly correlate with the IC since annual average meteorology is required to be used in showing compliance with the RECP and is used in calculating the alarm setpoints.

Due to the uncertainty associated with meteorology, emergency implementing procedures should call for the timely performance of dose assessments using actual (real-time) meteorology in the event of a gaseous radioactivity release of this magnitude. The results of these assessments should be compared to the ICs RS1 and RG1 to determine if the event classification should be escalated.

K-16 Rev. 48 ¶RA2 Initiating Condition Damage to Irradiated Fuel OR Loss of Water Level that Has or Will Result in the Uncovering of Irradiated Fuel Outside the Reactor Vessel.

Operating Mode Applicability: All Threshold Values: (1 OR 2) 1. UNPLANNED VALID alarm on any of the following radiation monitors:

Drumming Station RE-0008 Containment Purge Ventilation Monitor RE-24A OR B Spent Fuel Pool Ventilation Monitor RE-25A OR B Spent Fuel Pool Area Radiation Monitor RE-5

2. Loss of water level that has or will result in the uncovering of irradiated fuel outside the Reactor Vessel as indicated by ANY of the following:

Report of personnel during fuel assembly movements. Spent Fuel Pool Storage Less than El 129 Transfer Canal Less than El 116. Reactor Core Elevation Less than El 118 Basis: VALID: an indication, report, or condition, is considered to be VALID when it is verified by (1) an instrument channel check, or (2) indications on related or redundant indicators, or (3) by direct observation by plant personnel, such that doubt related to the indicator's operability, the condition's existence, or the report's accuracy is removed. Implicit in this definition is the need for timely assessment.

UNPLANNED: a parameter change or an event that is not the result of an intended evolution and requires corrective or mitigative actions.

This IC addresses specific events that have resulted, or may result, in unexpected rises in radiation dose rates within plant buildings, and may be a precursor to a radioactivity release to the environment. These events represent a loss of control over radioactive material and represent a degradation in the level of safety of the plant.

Threshold Value #1 addresses radiation monitor indications of fuel uncovery and/or fuel damage. Raised readings on ventilation monitors may be indication of a radioactivity release K-17 Rev. 48 from the fuel, confirming that damage has occurred. Raised background at the monitor due to water level lowering may mask raised ventilation exhaust airborne activity and needs to be considered. Application of these Initiating Conditions requires understanding of the actual radiological conditions present in the vicinity of the monitor.

In Threshold Value #2, indications include water level and personnel reports. Visual observation will be the primary indicator for spent fuel pool and fuel movement activities. Personnel report during fuel assembly movements is included to ensure that reports of actual or potential fuel uncovery is classified. If available, video cameras may allow remote observation. Depending on available level indication, the declaration threshold may need to be based on indications of water makeup rate or lowering in refueling water storage tank level.

K-18 Rev. 64 ¶RA3 Initiating Condition Release of Radioactive Material or Rises in Radiation Levels Within the Facility

That Impedes Operation of S ystems Required to Maintain Safe Operations or to Establish or Maintain Cold Shutdown

Operating Mode Applicability: All Threshold Values: (1 OR 2) 1. VALID radiation monitor readings greater than 15 mR/hr in areas requiring continuous occupancy to maintain plant safety functions:

Control Room radiation monitor RE-1A

2. UNPLANNED VALID radiation readings greater than 1000 mR/hr (1 R/hr) values in the following areas requiring infrequent access to maintain plant safety functions.

RadioChemistry Lab Area RE-3 Electrical And Piping Penetration Rooms Charging Pump Room Area RE-4 VCT Valve Room Sample Room Area RE-6 Seal Water HX Room Lower Equipment Room CCW HX Room Main Steam Valve Room Turbine Building Air Compressor Area 4160 Volt ESF Bus Rooms DC Switchgear Rooms Control Rod Drive Room Valve Box 1, 2, 3 and 4 Diesel Building Service Water Intake Structure Hot shutdown Panels Basis: UNPLANNED: a parameter change or an event that is not the result of an intended evolution and requires corrective or mitigative actions.

VALID: an indication, report, or condition, is considered to be VALID when it is verified by (1) an instrument channel check, or (2) indications on related or redundant indicators, or (3) by direct observation by plant personnel, such that doubt related to the indicator's operability, the condition's existence, or the report's accuracy is removed. Implicit in this definition is the need for timely assessment.

This IC addresses raised radiation levels that impede necessary access to operating stations, or other areas containing equipment that must be operated manually or that requires local K-19 Rev. 64 monitoring, in order to maintain safe operation or perform a safe shutdown. It is this impaired ability to operate the plant that results in the actual or potential substantial degradation of the level of safety of the plant. The cause and/or magnitude of the rise in radiation levels is not a concern of this IC. The Emergency Director must consider the source or cause of the raised radiation levels and determine if any other IC may be involved.

This IC is not meant to apply to anticipated temporary rises due to planned events.

The area requiring continuous occupancy is the control room and the central alarm station. The Central Alarm Station is in the Control Room envelope. The value of 15mR/hr is derived from the GDC 19 value of 5 rem in 30 days with adjustment for expected occupancy times.

For areas requiring infrequent access, the 1000 mR/hr (1 R/hr) (Locked High Rad Area) is based on radiation levels which result in exposure control measures intended to maintain doses within normal occupational exposure guidelines and limits (i.e., 10 CFR 20), and in doing so, will impede necessary access. As used here, impede, includes hindering or interfering provided that the interference or delay is sufficient to significantly threaten the safe operation of the plant.

3. Confirmed sample analyses for gaseous OR liquid releases indicates concentrations OR release rates, with a release duration of 60 minutes OR longer, in excess of two times Technical Specification 5.5.4.b, as confirmed by the ODCM.

K-21 Rev. 48 Basis: UNPLANNED, as used in this context, includes any release for which a radioactivity discharge permit was not prepared, or a release that exceeds the conditions (e.g., minimum dilution flow, maximum discharge flow, alarm setpoints, etc.) on the applicable permit. The Emergency Director should not wait until 60 minutes has elapsed, but should declare the event as soon as it is determined that the release duration has or will likely exceed 60 minutes. Also, if an ongoing release is detected and the starting time for that release is unknown, the Emergency Director should, in the absence of data to the contrary, assume that the release has exceeded 60

minutes.

VALID: an indication, report, or condition, is considered to be VALID when it is verified by (1) an instrument channel check, or (2) indications on related or redundant indicators, or (3) by direct observation by plant personnel, such that doubt related to the indicator's operability, the condition's existence, or the report's accuracy is removed. Implicit in this definition is the need for timely assessment.

This IC addresses a potential or actual decline in the level of safety of the plant as indicated by a radiological release that exceeds regulatory commitments for an extended period of time.

Nuclear power plants incorporate features intended to control the release of radioactive effluents to the environment. Further, there are administrative controls established to prevent unintentional releases, or control and monitor intentional releases. These controls are located in the Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM), Ref 2. The occurrence of extended, uncontrolled radioactive releases to the environment is indicative of a degradation in these features and/or

controls.

Threshold Value #1 addresses radioactivity releases, that for whatever reason, cause effluent radiation monitor readings to exceed two times the Technical Specification limit and releases are not terminated within 60 minutes. This alarm setpoint may be associated with a planned batch release, or a continuous release path. In either case, the setpoint is established by the ODCM to warn of a release that is not in compliance with the TS 5.5.4. Indexing the Threshold Value to the ODCM setpoints in this manner ensures that the Threshold Value will never be less than the setpoint established by a specific discharge permit.

Threshold Value #2 is intended for effluent monitoring on non-routine release pathways for which a discharge permit would not normally be prepared. The ODCM establishes a methodology for determining effluent radiation monitor setpoints. The ODCM specifies default source terms and, for gaseous releases, prescribes the use of pre-determined annual average meteorology in the most limiting downwind sector for showing compliance with the regulatory commitments. These monitor reading Threshold Values are determined using this methodology.

Threshold Value #3 addresses uncontrolled releases that are detected by sample analyses, particularly on unmonitored pathways, e.g., spills of radioactive liquids into storm drains, heat exchanger leakage in river water systems, etc.

VALID: an indication, report, or condition, is considered to be VALID when it is verified by (1) an instrument channel check, or (2) indications on related or redundant indicators, or (3) by direct observation by plant personnel, such that doubt related to the indicator's operability, the condition's existence, or the report's accuracy is removed. Implicit in this definition is the need for timely assessment.

K-23 Rev. 58 This IC addresses raised radiation levels as a result of water level lowering above the RPV flange or events that have resulted, or may result, in unexpected rises in radiation dose rates within plant buildings. These radiation rises represent a loss of control over radioactive material and may represent a potential degradation in the level of safety of the plant.

Classification as a NOUE is warranted as a precursor to a more serious event. Indications include instrumentation such as water level and local area radiation monitors, equipment parameters and personnel (e.g., refueling crew) reports. If available, video cameras may allow remote observation. Depending on available level instrumentation, the declaration threshold may need to be based on indications of water makeup rate or lowering in refueling water storage tank level.

Threshold Value 1a: Personnel report of low water level is the primary indicator.

Threshold Value 1b limits: FSAR 9.1.3.1.2 indicates that 12 feet of water above the stored fuel yields a dose rate of about 2.5 mR/hr. These monitors do not directly see the fuel, but see the dose reflected from the ceiling or containment dome, A conservative reduction on reflection is 10

-2 (Ref. 10). Thus when on-scale, the lowest reading monitor (RE-0005, 10 4 mR/hr, Ref. 8, Table 3.3-6) equivalent reading at the pool surface would be 10 6 mR/hr. Then a rise from a general area dose rate of 2.5 mR/hr represents log (10 6/2.5) = 5.6 1/10 th thicknesses. Assuming a 1/10 th thickness is 2 feet (Ref. 11), the monitor reading rise is equivalent to a water level lowering of 5.6 x 2 = 11.2 feet. Thus the fuel would have at least 6 inches of water cover.

Threshold Value #2 addresses UNPLANNED VALID Direct Area Radiation Monitor readings indicating rises in in-plant radiation levels that represent a degradation in the control of radioactive material, and represent a potential degradation in the level of safety of the plant.

"Direct Radiation Area Monitors" include installed Area Radiation Monitors (ARMs) but does not include effluent monitors (which are addressed in separate EALs) or process monitors.

1. The logic used for these initiating conditions reflects the following considerations:

The Fuel Clad Barrier and the RCS Barrier are weighted more heavily than the Containment Barrier. NOUE ICs associated with RCS and Fuel Clad Barriers are addressed under System Malfunction ICs.

At the Site Area Emergency level, there must be some ability to dynamically assess how far present conditions are from the threshold for a General Emergency. For example, if Fuel Clad and RCS Barrier "Loss" Threshold Values existed, that, in addition to offsite dose assessments, would require continual assessments of radioactive inventory and containment integrity. Alternatively, if both Fuel Clad and RCS Barrier "Potential Loss" Threshold Values existed, the Emergency Director would have more assurance that there was no immediate need to escalate to a General Emergency.

The ability to escalate to higher emergency classes as an event deteriorates must be maintained. For example, RCS leakage steadily increasing would represent an increasing risk to public health and safety.

K-25 Rev. 62 Farley Fission Product Barrier Evaluation FUEL CLAD BARRIER Threshold Values:

The Fuel Clad Barrier is the zircalloy or stainless steel tubes that contain the fuel pellets.

1. Critical Safety Function Status NOTE: Heat Sink CSF should not be considered -RED if total AFW flow is less than 395 gpm due to operator action.

RED path indicates an extreme challenge to the safety function. ORANGE path indicates a severe challenge to the safety function.

Core Cooling - ORANGE indicates subcooling has been lost and that some clad damage may occur. Heat Sink - RED indicates the ultimate heat sink function is under extreme challenge and thus these two items indicate potential loss of the Fuel Clad Barrier.

Core Cooling - RED indicates significant superheating and core uncovery and is considered to indicate loss of the Fuel Clad Barrier.

2. Primary Coolant Activity Level The 300 µCi/gm I 131 equivalent. Assessment by the NUMARC EAL Task Force indicates that this amount of coolant activity is well above that expected for iodine spikes and corresponds to less than 5% fuel clad damage. This amount of radioactivity indicates significant clad damage and thus the Fuel Clad Barrier is considered lost.

There is no equivalent "Potential Loss" Threshold Value for this item.

3. Core Exit Thermocouple Readings Core Exit Thermocouple Readings are included in addition to the Critical Safety Functions to include conditions when the CSFs may not be in use.

The "Loss" Threshold Value of 1200 degrees F corresponds to significant superheating of the coolant. This value corresponds to the temperature reading that indicates core cooling - RED in Fuel Clad Barrier Threshold Value #1.

The "Potential Loss" Threshold Value of 700 degrees F corresponds to loss of subcooling. This value corresponds to the temperature reading that indicates core cooling - ORANGE in Fuel Clad Barrier Threshold Value #1.

4. Reactor Vessel Water Level There is no "Loss" Threshold Value corresponding to this item because it is better covered by the other Fuel Clad Barrier "Loss" Threshold Values.

The 0% RVLIS value for the "Potential Loss" Threshold Value corresponds to the top of the active fuel. The "Potential Loss" Threshold Value is defined by the Core Cooling - ORANGE path.

K-26 Rev. 62 5. Containment Radiation Monitoring The greater than 600 R/hr reading is a value which indicates the release of reactor coolant, with elevated activity indicative of fuel damage, into the containment. The reading is calculated assuming the instantaneous release and dispersal of the reactor coolant noble gas and iodine inventory associated with a concentration of 300

µCi/gm dose equivalent I-131 into the containment atmosphere. Reactor coolant concentrations of this magnitude are several times larger than the maximum concentrations (including iodine spiking) allowed within technical specifications and are therefore indicative of fuel damage. This value is higher than that specified for RCS barrier Loss Threshold Value #4. Thus, this Threshold Value indicates a loss of both the fuel clad barrier and a loss of RCS barrier.

There is no "Potential Loss" Threshold Value associated with this item.

7. Emergency Director Judgment

This Threshold Value addresses any other factors that are to be used by the Emergency Director in determining whether the Fuel Clad barrier is lost or potentially lost. In addition, the inability to monitor the barrier is incorporated in this Threshold Value as a factor in Emergency Director judgment that the barrier may be considered lost or potentially lost.

RCS BARRIER Threshold Values:

The RCS Barrier includes the RCS primary side and its connections up to and including the pressurizer safety and relief valves, and other connections up to and including the primary

isolation valves.

1. Critical Safety Function Status There is no "Loss" Threshold Value associated with this item. NOTE: Heat Sink CSF should not be considered -RED if total AFW flow is less than 395 gpm due to operator action.

This Threshold Value uses the Critical Safety Function Status Tree (CSFST) monitoring and functional restoration procedures. An RCS Integrity RED path indicates an extreme challenge to the safety function derived from appropriate instrument readings, and these CSFs indicate a potential loss of RCS barrier.

2. RCS Leak Rate

The "Loss" Threshold Value addresses conditions where leakage from the RCS is greater than available inventory control capacity such that a loss of subcooling has occurred. The loss of subcooling is the fundamental indication that the inventory control systems are inadequate in maintaining RCS pressure and inventory against the mass loss through the leak.

The "Potential Loss" Threshold Value is based on the inability to maintain normal liquid inventory within the Reactor Coolant System (RCS) by normal operation of the Chemical and Volume Control System which is considered as one centrifugal charging pump discharging to K-27 Rev. 62 the charging header. A second charging pump being required is indicative of a substantial RCS leak providing the 120 GPM value. 3. SG Tube Rupture This Threshold Value is intended to address the full spectrum of Steam Generator (SG) tube rupture events in conjunction with Containment Barrier "Loss" Threshold Value #4 and Fuel Clad Barrier Threshold Values. The "Loss" Threshold Value addresses RUPTURED SG(s) for which the leakage is large enough to cause actuation of ECCS (SI). This is consistent to the RCS Barrier "Potential Loss" Threshold Value #2. This condition is described by EEP-3.0 entered. By itself, this Threshold Value will result in the declaration of an Alert. However, if the SG is also FAULTED (i.e., two barriers failed), the declaration escalates to a Site Area Emergency per Containment Barrier "Loss" Threshold Value #4. There is no "Potential Loss" Threshold Value. 4. Containment Radiation Monitoring The RE-2 greater than 1.0 R/hr and RE-7 greater than 500 mR/hr threshold is a value which indicates the release of reactor coolant to the containment. The reading is calculated assuming the instantaneous release and dispersal of the reactor coolant noble gas and iodine inventory associated with normal operating concentrations (i.e., within T/S) into the containment atmosphere. This value is less than that specified for Fuel Clad Barrier Threshold Value #5.

Thus, this Threshold Value would be indicative of a RCS leak only. If the radiation monitor reading rise to that specified by Fuel Clad Barrier Threshold Value #5, fuel damage would also be indicated. There is no "Potential Loss" Threshold Value associated with this item. 5. Other Indications There is no "Loss" Threshold Value associated with this item. An unexplained level rise in the containment sump, Reactor Coolant Drain Tank or the Waste Holdup Tank could indicate a RCS leak and is therefore included as a Potential Loss of the RCS Barrier. Rises in the containment sump levels, Reactor Coolant Drain Tank, or the Waste Holdup Tank that are anticipated as part of a planned evolution (or have already been identified by other leak assessment measures and accounted for in other threshold values) do not meet this threshold. Likewise, rises in containment sump levels, Reactor Coolant Drain Tank, or the Waste Holdup Tank that can be readily attributed to a source other than the RCS would also not meet the threshold. Sump and tank level increases must be evaluated against other potential sources of leakage such as cooling water sources inside the containment to ensure they are indicative of RCS leakage. 6. Emergency Director Judgment This Threshold Value addresses any other factors that are to be used by the Emergency Director in determining whether the RCS barrier is lost or potentially lost. In addition, the inability to monitor the barrier should also be incorporated in this Threshold Value as a factor in Emergency Director judgment that the barrier may be considered lost or potentially lost. CONTAINMENT BARRIER Threshold Values

The Containment Barrier includes the containment building, its connections up to and including the outermost containment isolation valves. This barrier also includes the main steam, feedwater, and blowdown line extensions outside the containment building up to and including the outermost secondary side isolation valve.

K-28 Rev. 64 1. Critical Safety Function Status There is no "Loss" Threshold Value associated with this item.

This Threshold Value uses Critical Safety Function Status Tree (CSFST) monitoring and functional restoration procedures. Containment RED path indicates an extreme challenge to the safety function derived from appropriate instrument readings and/or sampling results, and thus represents a potential loss of containment. Conditions leading to a containment RED path result from RCS barrier and/or Fuel Clad Barrier Loss. Thus, this Threshold Value is primarily a discriminator between Site Area Emergency and General Emergency representing a potential loss of the third barrier.

2. Containment Pressure

Rapid unexplained loss of pressure (i.e., not attributable to containment spray or condensation effects) following an initial pressure rise indicates a loss of containment integrity. Containment pressure and sump levels should rise as a result of the mass and energy release into containment from a LOCA. Thus, sump level or pressure not increasing indicates containment bypass and a loss of containment integrity.

The 54 PSIG for potential loss of containment is based on the containment design pressure. Existence of an explosive mixture means a hydrogen and oxygen concentration of at least the lower deflagration limit (greater than 6%) curve exists. The indications of potential loss under this Threshold Value corresponds to some of those leading to the RED path in Threshold Value

1 above and may be declared. As described above, this Threshold Value is primarily a discriminator between Site Area Emergency and General Emergency representing a potential loss of the third barrier.

The CTMT CSF ORANGE condition represents a potential loss of containment in that the containment heat removal/depressurization system (e.g., containment sprays, fan coolers, etc., but not including containment venting strategies) are either lost or performing in a degraded manner, as indicated by containment pressure greater than the setpoint at which the equipment was supposed to have actuated.

3. Core Exit Thermocouples

There is no "Loss" Threshold Value associated with this item.

In this Threshold Value, the function restoration procedures are those emergency operating procedures that address the recovery of the core cooling critical safety functions. The procedure is considered effective if the temperature is decreasing or if the vessel water level is increasing. For units using the CSF status trees a direct correlation to those status trees can be made if the effectiveness of the restoration procedures is also evaluated as stated below.

Severe accident analyses (e.g., NUREG-1150) have concluded that function restoration procedures can arrest core degradation within the reactor vessel in a significant fraction of the core damage scenarios, and that the likelihood of containment failure is very small in these events. Given this, it is appropriate to provide a reasonable period to allow function restoration procedures to arrest the core melt sequence. Whether or not the procedures will be effective should be apparent within 15 minutes. The Emergency Director should make the declaration as K-29 Rev. 62 soon as it is determined that the procedures have been, or will be ineffective. The reactor vessel level chosen should be consistent with the emergency response guides applicable to the facility.

The conditions in this potential loss Threshold Value represent an imminent core melt sequence which, if not corrected, could lead to vessel failure and an raised potential for containment failure. In conjunction with the Core Cooling and Heat Sink criteria in the Fuel and RCS barrier columns, this Threshold Value would result in the declaration of a General Emergency -- loss of two barriers and the potential loss of a third. If the function restoration procedures are ineffective, there is no "success" path.

4. SG Secondary Side Release With Primary To Secondary Leakage This "loss" Threshold Value recognizes that SG tube leakage can represent a bypass of the containment barrier as well as a loss of the RCS barrier. The "loss" Threshold Value addresses the condition in which a RUPTURED steam generator is also FAULTED. This condition represents a bypass of the RCS and containment barriers. In conjunction with RCS Barrier "loss" Threshold Value #3, this would always result in the declaration of a Site Area Emergency.

The other leakage "loss" Threshold Value addresses SG tube leaks that exceed 10 gpm in conjunction with a nonisolable release path to the environment from the affected steam generator. The threshold for establishing the nonisolable secondary side release is intended to be a prolonged release of radioactivity from the RUPTURED steam generator directly to the environment. This could be expected to occur when the main condenser is unavailable to accept the contaminated steam (i.e., SGTR with concurrent loss of offsite power and the RUPTURED steam generator is required for plant cooldown or a stuck open relief valve). If the main condenser is available, there may be releases via air ejectors, gland seal exhausters, and other similar controlled, and often monitored, pathways. These pathways do not meet the intent of a nonisolable release path to the environment. These minor releases are assessed using

Abnormal Rad Levels / Radiological Effluent ICs.

5. Containment Isolation Valve Status After Containment Isolation This Threshold Value addresses incomplete containment isolation that allows direct release to the environment. It represents a loss of the containment barrier.

The use of the modifier "direct" in defining the release path discriminates against release paths through interfacing liquid systems. The existence of an in-line charcoal filter does not make a release path indirect since the filter is not effective at removing fission noble gases. Typical filters have an efficiency of 95-99% removal of iodine. Given the magnitude of the core inventory of iodine, significant releases could still occur. In addition, since the fission product release would be driven by boiling in the reactor vessel, the high humidity in the release stream can be expected to render the filters ineffective in a short period.

There is no "Potential Loss" Threshold Value associated with this item.

6. Significant Radioactive Inventory in Containment

There is no "Loss" Threshold Value associated with this item.

The greater than 8000 R/hr value indicates significant fuel damage well in excess of the Threshold Values associated with both loss of Fuel Clad and loss of RCS Barriers. A major K-30 Rev. 48 release of radioactivity requiring offsite protective actions from core damage is not possible unless a major failure of fuel cladding allows radioactive material to be released from the core into the reactor coolant.

Regardless of whether containment is challenged, this amount of activity in containment, if released, could have such severe consequences that it is prudent to treat this as a potential loss of containment, such that a General Emergency declaration is warranted. NUREG-1228, "Source Estimations During Incident Response to Severe Nuclear Power Plant Accidents,"

indicates that such conditions do not exist when the amount of clad damage is less than 20%. A radiation monitor reading corresponding to 20% fuel clad damage is specified here.

7. Other Indications Leakage from the Containment would be routed through various ventilation systems where the specific monitors would indicate a release. R10, R14, R21, OR R22 Alarms would indicate a breach in containment.

8. Emergency Director Judgment

This Threshold Value addresses any other factors that are to be used by the Emergency Director in determining whether the Containment barrier is lost or potentially lost. In addition, the inability to monitor the barrier should also be incorporated in this Threshold Value as a factor in Emergency Director judgment that the barrier may be considered lost or potentially lost.

K-31 Rev. 48 SG1 Initiating Condition Prolonged Loss of All Offsite Power AND Prolonged Loss of All Onsite AC Power to Essential Busses.

Operating Mode Applicability:

Power Operation (Mode 1) Startup (Mode 2) Hot Standby (Mode 3)

Hot Shutdown (Mode 4)

Threshold Value:

(1 AND EITHER 2 OR 3) 1. Loss of ALL AC power indicated by:

a. Loss of offsite power to OR from Start Up Transformers 1(2)A AND 1(2)B resulting in loss of all offsite electrical power to BOTH 4160V ESF busses 1(2)F AND 1(2)G for greater than 15 minutes AND b. Failure of emergency diesel generators to supply power to emergency busses.

AND EITHER

2. Restoration of at least one 4160V ESF bus, 1(2)F OR 1(2)G, within 4 hr. of time of loss is NOT likely OR 3. Fuel Clad Barrier Evaluation indicates continuing degradation (Loss or Potential Loss) due to core cooling.

Basis: Loss of all AC power compromises all plant safety systems requiring electric power including RHR, ECCS, Containment Heat Removal and the Ultimate Heat Sink. Prolonged loss of all AC power will lead to loss of fuel clad, RCS, and containment. The 4 hours4.62963e-5 days 0.00111 hours 6.613757e-6 weeks 1.522e-6 months to restore AC power is based on a site blackout coping analysis. Appropriate allowance for offsite emergency response including evacuation of surrounding areas should be considered. Although this IC may be viewed as redundant to the Fission Product Barrier Degradation IC, its inclusion is necessary to better assure timely recognition and emergency response.

This IC is specified to assure that in the unlikely event of a prolonged station blackout, timely recognition of the seriousness of the event occurs and that declaration of a General Emergency occurs as early as is appropriate, based on a reasonable assessment of the event trajectory.

K-32 Rev. 48 The likelihood of restoring at least one emergency bus should be based on a realistic appraisal of the situation since a delay in an upgrade decision based on only a chance of mitigating the event could result in a loss of valuable time in preparing and implementing public protective actions.

In addition, under these conditions, fission product barrier monitoring capability may be degraded. Although it may be difficult to predict when power can be restored, it is necessary to give the Emergency Director a reasonable idea of how quickly (s)he may need to declare a General Emergency based on two major considerations:

1. Are there any present indications that core cooling is already degraded to the point that Loss or Potential Loss of Fission Product Barriers is imminent?

2. If there are no present indications of such core cooling degradation, how likely is it that power can be restored in time to assure that a loss of two barriers with a potential loss of the third barrier can be prevented?

Thus, indication of continuing core cooling degradation must be based on Fission Product Barrier monitoring with particular emphasis on Emergency Director judgment as it relates to imminent Loss or Potential Loss of fission product barriers and degraded ability to monitor fission product barriers.

K-33 Rev. 48 ¶SG2 Initiating Condition Failure of the Reactor Protection Syst em to Complete an Automatic Trip AND Manual Trip was NOT Successful AND there is Indication of an Extreme Challenge to the Ability to Cool the Core.

Operating Mode Applicability:

Power Operation (Mode 1) Startup (Mode 2)

Threshold Value:

(1 AND EITHER a OR b) NOTE: A successful manual trip for purposes of declaration is any action taken from the MCB that rapidly inserts the control rods. This can be accomplished by tripping the reactor using the Reactor Trip switches on the MCB OR by de-energizing both Rod Drive Motor Generator sets from the MCB.

NOTE: Heat Sink CSF should not be considered RED if total AFW flow is less than 395 gpm due to operator action.

NOTE Failure of both MCB Rx Trip switches to trip the reactor meets the TV criteria of a setpoint being exceeded with no automatic trip occurring.

1. Indications exist that a reactor protection system setpoint was exceeded and automatic trip did not occur, and a manual trip did not result in the reactor being made subcritical.

AND EITHER

a. Core Cooling CSF - RED

OR b. Heat Sink CSF - RED Basis: Automatic and manual trip are not considered successful if action away from the reactor control console is required to trip the reactor. Under the conditions of this IC and its associated Threshold Values, the efforts to bring the reactor subcritical have been unsuccessful and, as a result, the reactor is producing more heat than the maximum decay heat load for which the safety systems were designed. Although there are capabilities away from the reactor control console, such as emergency boration, the continuing temperature rise indicates that these capabilities are not effective. This situation could be a precursor for a core melt sequence. This Threshold Value equates to a Subcriticality RED condition.

K-34 Rev. 48 The extreme challenge to the ability to cool the core is intended to mean that the core exit temperatures are at or approaching 1200 degrees F or that the reactor vessel water level is below the top of active fuel. This Threshold Value equates to a Core Cooling RED condition.

Another consideration is the inability to initially remove heat during the early stages of this sequence. If emergency feedwater flow is insufficient to remove the amount of heat required by design from at least one steam generator, an extreme challenge should be considered to exist. This Threshold Value equates to a Heat Sink RED condition.

In the event either of these challenges exist at a time that the reactor has not been brought below the power associated with the safety system design (typically 3 to 5% power) a core melt sequence exists. In this situation, core degradation can occur rapidly. For this reason, the General Emergency declaration is intended to be anticipatory of the fission product barrier matrix declaration to permit maximum offsite intervention time.

K-35 Rev. 48 ¶SS1 Initiating Condition Loss of All Offsite Power AND Loss of All Onsite AC Power to Essential Busses.

Operating Mode Applicability:

Power Operation (Mode 1) Startup (Mode 2) Hot Standby (Mode 3)

Hot Shutdown (Mode 4)

Threshold Value:

(1a AND 1b AND 1c) 1. Loss of all AC power indicated by:

a. Loss of offsite power to OR from Start Up Transformers 1(2)A AND 1(2)B resulting in loss of all offsite electrical power to BOTH 4160V ESF busses 1(2)F AND 1(2)G for greater than 15 minutes AND b. Failure of emergency diesel generators to supply power to emergency busses.

AND c. Restoration of at least one 4160V ESF bus, F OR G, has NOT occurred within 15 minutes of time of loss of all AC power Basis:

Loss of all AC power compromises all plant safety systems requiring electric power including RHR, ECCS, Containment Heat Removal and the Ultimate Heat Sink. Prolonged loss of all AC power will cause core uncovering and loss of containment integrity, thus this event can escalate to a General Emergency. The 15 minute time duration is selected to exclude transient or momentary power losses.

Consideration should be given to operable loads necessary to remove decay heat or provide Reactor Vessel makeup capability when evaluating loss of AC power to essential busses. Even though an essential bus may be energized, if necessary loads are not operable on the energized bus then the bus should not be considered operable.

K-36 Rev. 48 ¶SS2 Initiating Condition Failure of Reactor Protection System Instru mentation to Complete or Initiate an Automatic Reactor Trip Once a Reactor Protection System Setpoint Has Been Exceeded AND Manual Trip Was NOT Successful.

Operating Mode Applicability:

Power Operation (Mode 1) Startup (Mode 2)

Threshold Value:

(1) NOTE: A successful manual trip for purposes of declaration is any action taken from the MCB that rapidly inserts the control rods. This can be accomplished by tripping the reactor using the Reactor Trip switches on the MCB OR by de-energizing both Rod Drive Motor Generator sets from the MCB.

NOTE Failure of both MCB Rx Trip switches to trip the reactor meets the TV criteria of a setpoint being exceeded with no automatic trip occurring.

1. Indications exist that a reactor protection system setpoint was exceeded and automatic trip did not occur, and a manual trip did not result in the reactor being

made subcritical. (NOTE)

Basis: Automatic and manual trip are not considered successful if action away from the reactor control console was required to trip the reactor.

The Reactor should be considered subcritical when reactor power level has been reduced to less than 5% power and SUR is negative.

Under these continued power generation conditions, the reactor may be producing more heat than the maximum decay heat load for which the safety systems are designed. A Site Area Emergency is indicated because conditions exist that may lead to imminent loss or potential loss of both fuel clad and RCS. Although this IC may be viewed as redundant to the Fission Product Barrier Degradation IC, its inclusion is necessary to better assure timely recognition and emergency response. Escalation of this event to a General Emergency would be via Fission Product Barrier Degradation or Emergency Director Judgment ICs. A manual reactor trip is considered to be a trip input to the automatic Reactor Protection System.

K-37 Rev. 48 ¶SS3 Initiating Condition Loss of All Vital DC Power.

Operating Mode Applicability:

Power Operation (Mode 1) Startup (Mode 2) Hot Standby (Mode 3)

Hot Shutdown (Mode 4)

Threshold Value:

(1) 1. Loss of all Vital DC power to 125 VDC Bus A AND B indicated by bus voltage indications less than 105 VDC for greater than 15 minutes.

Basis:

Loss of all DC power compromises ability to monitor and control plant safety functions.

Prolonged loss of all DC power will cause core uncovering and loss of containment integrity when there is significant decay heat and sensible heat in the reactor system.

105 VDC bus voltage is based on the minimum bus voltage necessary for the operation of safety related equipment. This voltage value incorporates a margin of at least 15 minutes of operation before the onset of inability to operate those loads.

K-38 Rev. 48 ¶SS4 Initiating Condition Complete Loss of Heat Removal Capability.

Operating Mode Applicability:

Power Operation (Mode 1) Startup (Mode 2)

Hot Standby (Mode 3)

Hot Shutdown (Mode 4)

Threshold Value:

(1a AND 1b) NOTE: Heat Sink CSF should not be considered -RED if total AFW flow is less than 395 gpm due to operator action.

1. Complete Loss of Heat Removal Capability as indicated by:

a. Core Cooling CSF - ORANGE

AND b. Heat Sink CSF - RED Basis: This Threshold Value addresses complete loss of functions, including ultimate heat sink (NSCW), required for hot shutdown with the reactor at pressure and temperature. Reactivity control is addressed in other Threshold Values.

Under these conditions, there is an actual major failure of a system intended for protection of the public. Thus, declaration of a Site Area Emergency is warranted.

K-39 Rev. 48 ¶SS6 Initiating Condition Inability to Monitor a SIGNIF ICANT TRANSIENT in Progress.

Operating Mode Applicability:

Power Operation (Mode 1) Startup (Mode 2)

Hot Standby (Mode 3)

Hot Shutdown (Mode 4)

Threshold Value:

(1a AND 1b AND 1c AND 1d) 1. a. A SIGNIFICANT TRANSIENT in progress

AND b. Loss of most OR all (approximately 75% of the MCB) annunciators OR indicators associated with safety systems AND c. Compensatory non-alarming indications are NOT available AND d. Indications needed to monitor the Critical Safety Function Status Tree parameters are NOT available Basis: SIGNIFICANT TRANSIENT: is an UNPLANNED event involving one or more of the following:

(1) automatic turbine runback greater than 25% thermal reactor power, (2) electrical load rejection greater than 25% full electrical load, (3) Reactor Trip, (4) Safety Injection Activation, or (5) thermal power oscillations greater than 10%.

This IC and its associated Threshold Value are intended to recognize the inability of the control room staff to monitor the plant response to a transient. A Site Area Emergency is considered to exist if the control room staff cannot monitor safety functions needed for protection of the public.

The annunciators for this Threshold Value are limited to include those identified in the Abnormal Operating Procedures, in the Emergency Operating Procedures, and in other Threshold Values.

"Compensatory non-alarming indications" in this context includes computer based information such as SPDS.

The indications needed to monitor safety functions necessary for protection of the public must include control room indications, computer generated indications and dedicated annunciation K-40 Rev. 48 capability. The specific indications are those used to determine such functions as the ability to shut down the reactor, maintain the core cooled, to maintain the reactor coolant system intact, and to maintain containment intact.

"Planned" and "UNPLANNED" actions are not differentiated since the loss of instrumentation of this magnitude is of such significance during a transient that the cause of the loss is not an ameliorating factor.

Quantification of "Most" is arbitrary, however, it is estimated that if approximately 75% of the safety system annunciators or indicators are lost, there is a greater risk that a degraded plant condition could go undetected. It is not intended that plant personnel perform a detailed count of the instrumentation lost but use the value as a judgment threshold for determining the severity of the plant conditions. It is also not intended that the Shift Supervisor be tasked with making a judgment decision as to whether additional personnel are required to provide augmented monitoring of system operation.

K-41 Rev. 48 ¶SA2 Initiating Condition Failure of Reactor Protection System Instru mentation to Complete or Initiate an Automatic Reactor Trip Once a Reacto r Protection System Setpoint Has Been Exceeded AND Manual Trip Was Successful.

Operating Mode Applicability:

Power Operation (Mode 1) Startup (Mode 2)

Hot Standby (Mode 3)

Threshold Value:

(1) NOTE: A successful manual trip for purposes of declaration is any action taken from the MCB that rapidly inserts the control rods. This can be accomplished by tripping the reactor using the Reactor Trip switches on the MCB OR by de-energizing both Rod Drive Motor Generator sets from the MCB.

NOTE Failure of both MCB Rx Trip switches to trip the reactor meets the TV criteria of a setpoint being exceeded with no automatic trip occurring.

1. Indication(s) exist that a reactor protection setpoint was exceeded and an automatic trip did not occur, and a manual trip resulted in the reactor being subcritical.

Basis: This condition indicates failure of the automatic protection system to trip the reactor. This condition is more than a potential degradation of a safety system in that a front line automatic protection system did not function in response to a plant transient and thus the plant safety has been compromised, and design limits of the fuel may have been exceeded. An Alert is indicated because conditions exist that lead to potential loss of fuel clad or RCS. Reactor protection system setpoint being exceeded, rather than limiting safety system setpoint being exceeded, is specified here because failure of the automatic protection system is the issue. A manual reactor trip is considered to be a trip input to the automatic Reactor Protection System or de-energizing the MG sets should initiate a manual trip.

The Reactor should be considered subcritical when reactor power level has been reduced to less than 5% power and SUR is negative.

K-42 Rev. 48 ¶SA4 Initiating Condition UNPLANNED Loss of Most or All Safety Syst em Annunciation or Indication in the Control Room With EITHER (1) a SIGNIFICANT TRANSIENT in Progress, OR (2) Compensatory Non-Alarming Indi cators are Unavailable.

Operating Mode Applicability:

Power Operation (Mode 1) Startup (Mode 2) Hot Standby (Mode 3)

Hot Shutdown (Mode 4)

Threshold Value:

(1 AND EITHER a OR b) 1. UNPLANNED loss of most OR all (approximately 75% of the MCB) annunciators OR indicators associated with safety systems for greater than 15 minutes AND EITHER a. A SIGNIFICANT TRANSIENT is in progress

OR b. Compensatory non-alarming indications are NOT available Basis: UNPLANNED: a parameter change or an event that is not the result of an intended evolution and requires corrective or mitigative actions.

SIGNIFICANT TRANSIENT: is an UNPLANNED event involving one or more of the following:

(1) automatic turbine runback greater than 25% thermal reactor power, (2) electrical load rejection greater than 25% full electrical load, (3) Reactor Trip, (4) Safety Injection Activation, or (5) thermal power oscillations greater than 10%.

This IC and its associated Threshold Values are intended to recognize the difficulty associated with monitoring changing plant conditions without the use of a major portion of the annunciation or indication equipment during a transient. Recognition of the availability of computer based indication equipment is considered. A "planned" loss of annunciators or indicators includes scheduled maintenance and testing activities.

Quantification of "Most" is arbitrary, however, it is estimated that if approximately 75% of the safety system annunciators or indicators are lost, there is a greater risk that a degraded plant condition could go undetected. It is not intended that plant personnel perform a detailed count of the instrumentation lost but use the value as a judgment threshold for determining the severity of the plant conditions. It is also not intended that the Shift Supervisor be tasked with making a K-43 Rev. 48 judgment decision as to whether additional personnel are required to provide augmented monitoring of system operation.

It is further recognized that most plant designs provide redundant safety system indication powered from separate uninterruptible power supplies. While failure of a large portion of annunciators is more likely than a failure of a large portion of indications, the concern is included in this Threshold Value due to difficulty associated with assessment of plant conditions.

The annunciators or indicators for this Threshold Value include those identified in the Abnormal Operating Procedures, in the Emergency Operating Procedures, and in other Threshold Values.

"Compensatory non-alarming indications" in this context includes computer based information such as SPDS. This should include all computer systems available for this use depending on specific plant design and subsequent retrofits. If both a major portion of the annunciation system and all computer monitoring are unavailable, the Alert is required.

K-44 Rev. 48 ¶SA5 Initiating Condition AC power capability to essential busses reduced to a single power source for greater than 15 minutes such that any additional single failure would result in station blackout.

Operating Mode Applicability:

Power Operation (Mode 1) Startup (Mode 2) Hot Standby (Mode 3)

Hot Shutdown (Mode 4)

Threshold Value:

(1a AND 1b) 1. a. AC power capability to 4160V ESF busses 1(2)F AND 1(2)G reduced to a single power source for greater than 15 minutes AND b. ANY additional single failure will result in station blackout.

Basis:

This IC and the associated Threshold Values are intended to provide an escalation from IC SU1, "Loss of All Offsite Power To Essential Busses for Greater Than 15 Minutes." The condition indicated by this IC is the degradation of the offsite and onsite power systems such that any additional single failure would result in a station blackout. This condition could occur due to a loss of offsite power with a concurrent failure of one emergency generator to supply power to its emergency busses. Another related condition could be the loss of all offsite power and loss of onsite emergency diesels with only one train of emergency busses being backfed from the SAT, or the loss of onsite emergency diesels with only one train of emergency busses being backfed from offsite power. The subsequent loss of this single power source would escalate the event to a Site Area Emergency in accordance with IC SS1, "Loss of All Offsite and Loss of All Onsite AC Power to Essential Busses."

The Threshold Values allow credit for operation of installed design features, such as cross-ties or swing diesels, provided that abnormal or emergency operating procedures address their use.

K-45 Rev. 48 ¶SU1 Initiating Condition Loss of All Offsite Power to Essentia l Busses for Greater Than 15 Minutes.

Operating Mode Applicability:

Power Operation (Mode 1) Startup (Mode 2) Hot Standby (Mode 3)

Hot Shutdown (Mode 4)

Threshold Value:

(1a AND 1b) 1. a. Loss of offsite power to OR from Start Up Transformers 1(2)A AND 1(2)B resulting in loss of all offsite electrical power to BOTH 4160V ESF busses 1(2)F AND 1(2)G for greater than 15 minutes AND b. Emergency diesel generators supplying power to BOTH 4160V ESF busses 1(2)F AND 1(2)G. Basis: Prolonged loss of Offsite AC power reduces required redundancy and potentially degrades the level of safety of the plant by rendering the plant more vulnerable to a complete Loss of AC Power (e.g., Station Blackout). Fifteen minutes was selected as a threshold to exclude transient or momentary power losses.

K-46 Rev. 61 SU2 Initiating Condition Inability to Reach Required Shutdown Wi thin Technical Specification Limits.

Operating Mode Applicability:

Power Operation (Mode 1) Startup (Mode 2) Hot Standby (Mode 3)

Hot Shutdown (Mode 4)

Threshold Value:

(1) 1. Plant is NOT brought to required operating mode within FNP Technical Specifications LCO Action Statement Time limit.

Basis: Limiting Conditions of Operation (LCOs) require the plant to be brought to a required shutdown mode when the Technical Specification required configuration cannot be restored. Depending on the circumstances, this may or may not be an emergency or precursor to a more severe condition. In any case, the initiation of plant shutdown required by the site Technical Specifications requires a 4-hour report under 10 CFR 50.72 (b) Non-emergency events. The plant is within its safety envelope when being shut down within the allowable action statement time in the Technical Specifications. An immediate NOUE is required when the plant is not brought to the required operating mode within the allowable action statement time in the Technical Specifications. Declaration of a NOUE is based on the time at which the LCO-specified action statement time period elapses under the site Technical Specifications and is not related to how long a condition may have existed

. Other required Technical Specification shutdowns that involve precursors to more serious events are addressed by other System Malfunction, Hazards, or Fission Product Barrier Degradation ICs.

K-47 Rev. 48 ¶SU3 Initiating Condition UNPLANNED Loss of Most or All Safety Sy stem Annunciation or Indication in The Control Room for Greater Than 15 Minutes

Operating Mode Applicability:

Power Operation (Mode 1) Startup (Mode 2) Hot Standby (Mode 3)

Hot Shutdown (Mode 4)

Threshold Value:

(1) 1. UNPLANNED loss of most OR all (approximately 75% of the MCB annunciators)

OR indicators associated with safety systems for greater than 15 minutes.

Basis: UNPLANNED: a parameter change or an event that is not the result of an intended evolution and requires corrective or mitigative actions.

This IC and its associated Threshold Value are intended to recognize the difficulty associated with monitoring changing plant conditions without the use of a major portion of the annunciation or indication equipment.

Recognition of the availability of computer based indication equipment is considered.

Quantification of "Most" is arbitrary, however, it is estimated that if approximately 75% of the safety system annunciators or indicators are lost, there is a greater risk that a degraded plant condition could go undetected. It is not intended that plant personnel perform a detailed count of the instrumentation lost but use the value as a judgment threshold for determining the severity of the plant conditions.

It is further recognized that most plant designs provide redundant safety system indication powered from separate uninterruptible power supplies. While failure of a large portion of annunciators is more likely than a failure of a large portion of indications, the concern is included in this Threshold Value due to difficulty associated with assessment of plant conditions.

The annunciators or indicators for this Threshold Value include those identified in the Abnormal Operating Procedures, in the Emergency Operating Procedures, and in other Threshold Values.

Fifteen minutes was selected as a threshold to exclude transient or momentary power losses.

K-48 Rev. 48 ¶SU4 Initiating Condition Fuel Clad Degradation.

Operating Mode Applicability:

Power Operation (Mode 1) Startup (Mode 2) Hot Standby (Mode 3)

Hot Shutdown (Mode 4)

Threshold Values:

(1) 1. RCS coolant sample activity value indicating fuel clad degradation greater than Technical Specification allowable limits as indicated by ANY of the following:

Dose Equivalent I-131 greater than 0.5 Ci/gm for greater than 48 hours5.555556e-4 days 0.0133 hours 7.936508e-5 weeks 1.8264e-5 months Dose Equivalent I-131 greater than Technical Specification figure 3.4.16-1.

IF less than 20% power, THEN use the Dose Equivalent I-131 20% power limit on Technical Specification figure 3.4.16-1 RCS gross specific activity greater than 100/ Ci/gm. Basis: This IC is included as a NOUE because it is considered to be a potential degradation in the level of safety of the plant and a potential precursor of more serious problems.

The Threshold Value addresses coolant samples exceeding coolant technical specifications for iodine spike. Escalation of this IC to the Alert level is via the Fission Product Barrier Degradation Monitoring ICs. Though the referenced Technical Specification limits are mode dependent, it is appropriate that the Threshold Value's be applicable in all modes, as they indicate a potential degradation in the level of safety of the plant.

K-49 Rev. 48 ¶SU5 Initiating Condition RCS Leakage.

Operating Mode Applicability:

Power Operation (Mode 1) Startup (Mode 2) Hot Standby (Mode 3)

Hot Shutdown (Mode 4)

Threshold Values:

(1 OR 2) 1. RCS Unidentified OR pressure boundary leakage greater than 10 gpm.

2. RCS Identified leakage greater than 25 gpm.

Basis: This IC is included as a NOUE because it may be a precursor of more serious conditions and, as result, is considered to be a potential degradation of the level of safety of the plant. The 10 gpm value for the unidentified and pressure boundary leakage was selected as it is observable with normal control room indications. Lesser values must generally be determined through time-consuming surveillance tests (e.g., mass balances). The Threshold Value for identified leakage is set at a higher value due to the lesser significance of identified leakage in comparison to unidentified or pressure boundary leakage.

K-50 Rev. 48 ¶SU6 Initiating Condition UNPLANNED Loss of All Onsite OR Offsite Communications Capabilities.

Operating Mode Applicability:

Power Operation (Mode 1) Startup (Mode 2) Hot Standby (Mode 3)

Hot Shutdown (Mode 4)

Threshold Values:

(1 OR 2) 1. UNPLANNED loss of ALL of the following on-site communications capability affecting the ability to perform routine operations: In plant telephones Public Address System Plant radio systems

2. UNPLANNED loss of ALL of the following off-site communications capability:

ENN (Emergency Notification Network)

ENS (Emergency Notification System) Commercial phones (Radio, PBX, Satellite, Wireless) VOIP (Voice Over Internet Protocol) OPX (Off Premise Extension)

Basis: UNPLANNED: a parameter change or an event that is not the result of an intended evolution and requires corrective or mitigative actions.

The purpose of this IC and its associated Threshold Values is to recognize a loss of communications capability that either defeats the plant operations staff ability to perform routine tasks necessary for plant operations or the ability to communicate problems with offsite authorities.

The availability of one method of ordinary offsite communications is sufficient to inform state and local authorities of plant conditions. This Threshold Value is intended to be used only when extraordinary means (e.g., relaying of information from radio transmissions, individuals being sent to offsite locations, etc.) are being used to make communications possible. The list for onsite communications loss encompasses the loss of all means of routine communications. The list for offsite communications loss encompasses the loss of all means of communications with offsite authorities.

K-51 Rev. 48 ¶SU8 Initiating Condition Inadvertent Criticality.

OPERATING MODE APPLICABILITY Hot Standby (Mode 3) Hot Shutdown (Mode 4)

Threshold Value:

(1) 1. An UNPLANNED sustained positive startup rate observed on nuclear instrumentation.

Basis: UNPLANNED: a parameter change or an event that is not the result of an intended evolution and requires corrective or mitigative actions.

This IC addresses inadvertent criticality events. While the primary concern of this IC is criticality events that occur in Cold Shutdown or Refueling modes (NUREG 1449, Shutdown and Low-Power Operation at Commercial Nuclear Power Plants in the United States), the IC is applicable in other modes in which inadvertent criticalities are possible. This IC indicates a potential degradation of the level of safety of the plant, warranting a NOUE classification. This IC excludes inadvertent criticalities that occur during planned reactivity changes associated with reactor startups.

This condition is identified using the startup rate monitor. The term "sustained" is used in order to allow exclusion of expected short term positive startup rates from planned control rod movements. These short term positive startup rates are the result of the rise in neutron population due to subcritical multiplication.

K-52 Rev. 62 HG1 Initiating Condition HOSTILE ACTION Resulting in Loss Of Physical Control of the Facility.

Operating Mode Applicability:

All Threshold Value:

(1 OR 2) 1. A HOSTILE Action has occured such that plant personnel are unable to operate equipment required to maintain safety functions..

2. A HOSTILE ACTION has caused failure of Spent Fuel Cooling Systems and IMMINENT fuel damage is likely for a freshly off-loaded reactor core in pool.

Basis:

HOSTILE ACTION: An act toward a NPP or its personnel that includes the use of violent force to destroy equipment, take HOSTAGES, and/or intimidate the licensee to achieve an end. This includes attack by air, land, or water using guns, explosives, PROJECTILEs, vehicles, or other devices used to deliver destructive force. Other acts that satisfy the overall intent may be included. HOSTILE ACTION should not be construed to include acts of civil disobedience or felonious acts that are not part of a concerted attack on the NPP. Non-terrorism-based EALs should be used to address such activities (i.e., this may include violent acts between individuals in the owner controlled area).

VITAL AREAS: any areas, normally within the PROTECTED AREA, that contains equipment, systems, components, or material, the failure, destruction, or release of which could directly or indirectly endanger the public health and safety by exposure to radiation.

PROJECTILE: An object directed toward a NPP that could cause concern for its continued operability, reliability, or personnel safety.

IMMINENT: Mitigation actions have been ineffective, additional actions are not expected to be successful, and trended information indicates that the event or condition will occur.

This IC encompasses conditions under which a HOSTILE ACTION has resulted in a loss of physical control of VITAL AREAs (containing vital equipment or controls of vital equipment) resulting in the loss of one or more safety functions and control of the equipment required to maintain the safety function(s) cannot be transferred to and operated from another location. These safety functions are reactivity control, RCS inventory, and secondary heat removal. If control of the plant equipment necessary to maintain safety functions can be transferred to another location, then the above initiating condition is not met.

Threshold Value 2 should also address loss of physical control of spent fuel pool cooling systems if imminent fuel damage is likely for a freshly off-loaded reactor core in pool). If the calculated SFP "time to boil" is 2 hours2.314815e-5 days 5.555556e-4 hours 3.306878e-6 weeks 7.61e-7 months or less, spent fuel damage is likely.

K-53 Rev. 50 Intentionally Left Blank K-54 Rev. 48 ¶HG2 Initiating Condition Other Conditions Existing Which in t he Judgment of the Emergency Director Warrant Declaration of General Emergency.

Operating Mode Applicability:

All Threshold Value:

(1) 1. Other conditions exist which in the judgment of the Emergency Director indicate that events are in process or have occurred which involve actual or imminent substantial core degradation or melting with potential for loss of containment integrity OR HOSTILE ACTION that results in an actual loss of physical control of the facility. Releases can be reasonably expected to exceed EPA Protective Action Guideline exposure levels offsite for more than the immediate site area.

Basis: HOSTILE ACTION: An act toward an NPP or its personnel that includes the use of violent force to destroy equipment, takes hostages, and /or intimidates the licensee to achieve an end. This includes attack by air, land, or water using guns, explosives, projectiles, vehicles, or other devices used to deliver destructive force. Other acts that satisfy the overall intent may be included. HOSTILE ACTION should not be construed to include acts of civil disobedience or felonious acts that are not part of a concerted attack on the NPP. Non- terrorism-based Threshold Values should be used to address such activities, (e.g., violent acts between individuals in the owner controlled area.)

This Threshold Value is intended to address unanticipated conditions not addressed explicitly elsewhere but that warrant declaration of an emergency because conditions exist which are believed by the Emergency Director to fall under the General Emergency class.

K-55 Rev.50 Intentionally Left Blank

K-56 Rev. 48 ¶HS2 Initiating Condition Control Room Evacuati on Has Been Initiated AND Plant Control Cannot Be Established.

Operating Mode Applicability:

All Threshold Value:

(1a AND 1b) 1. a. Control Room evacuation has been initiated AND b. Control of the plant can NOT be established per AOP-28.0, Control Room Inaccessibility, within 15 minutes.

Basis: Expeditious transfer of safety systems has not occurred but fission product barrier damage may not yet be indicated. The intent of this IC is to capture those events where control of the plant cannot be reestablished in a timely manner. The time for transfer is based on analysis or assessments as to how quickly control must be reestablished without core uncovering and/or core damage. The determination of whether or not control is established at the remote shutdown panel is based on Emergency Director (ED) judgment. The ED is expected to make a reasonable, informed judgment within the time for transfer that the operators have control of the

plant.

The intent of the Threshold Value is to establish control of important plant equipment and knowledge of important plant parameters in a timely manner. Primary emphasis should be placed on those components and instruments that supply protection for and information about safety functions. These safety functions are reactivity control, RCS inventory, and secondary heat removal.

K-57 Rev. 48 ¶HS3 Initiating Condition Other Conditions Existing Which in t he Judgment of the Emergency Director Warrant Declaration of Site Area Emergency.

Operating Mode Applicability:

All Threshold Value: (1) 1. Other conditions exist which in the judgment of the Emergency Director indicate that events are in process OR have occurred which involve actual OR likely major failures of plant functions needed for protection of the public OR HOSTILE ACTION that results in intentional damage or malicious acts; (1) toward site personnel or equipment that could lead to the likely failure of or; (2) that prevent effective access to equipment needed for the protection of the public. Any releases are not expected to result in exposure levels that exceed EPA Protective Action Guideline exposure levels beyond the site boundary.

Basis: HOSTILE ACTION: An act toward an NPP or its personnel that includes the use of violent force to destroy equipment, take hostages, and /or intimidate the licensee to achieve an end. This includes attack by air, land, or water using weapons , explosives, projectiles, vehicles, or other devices used to deliver destructive force. Other acts that satisfy the overall intent may be included. HOSTILE ACTION should not be construed to include acts of civil disobedience or felonious acts that are not part of a concerted attack on the NPP. Non-terrorism-based Threshold Values should be used to address such activities, (e.g., violent acts between individuals in the owner controlled area.)

This Threshold Value is intended to address unanticipated conditions not addressed explicitly elsewhere but that warrant declaration of an emergency because conditions exist which are believed by the Emergency Director to fall under the emergency class description for Site Area Emergency.

K-58 Rev. 50 ¶HS4 Initiating Condition HOSTILE ACTION within the PROTECTED AREA Operating Mode Applicability: All Threshold Value: (1) 1. A HOSTILE ACTION is occurring or has occurred within the PROTECTED AREA as reported by the site security force..

Basis: HOSTILE ACTION: An act toward an NPP or its personnel that includes the use of violent force

to destroy equipment, take hostages, and /or intimidate the licensee to achieve an end. This includes attack by air, land, or water using weapons, explosives, projectiles, vehicles, or other devices used to deliver destructive force. Other acts that satisfy the overall intent may be included. HOSTILE ACTION should not be construed to include acts of civil disobedience or felonious acts that are not part of a concerted attack on the NPP. Non-terrorism-based Threshold Values should be used to address such activities, (e.g., violent acts between individuals in the owner controlled area).

PROJECTILE: An object directed toward a NPP that could cause concern for its continued operability, reliability, or personnel safety.

This class of security events represents an escalated threat to plant safety above that contained in the Alert IC in that a HOSTILE ACTION has progressed from the Owner Controlled Area to

the Protected Area.

This EAL addresses the contingency for a very rapid progression of events, such as that experienced on September 11, 2001. It is not premised solely on the potential for a radiological release. Rather the issue includes the need for rapid assistance due to the possibility for significant and indeterminate damage from additional air, land or water attack elements. The fact that the site is under serious attack with minimal time available for further preparation or additional assistance to arrive requires Offsite Response Organizations readiness and preparation for the implementation of protective measures. This EAL addresses the potential for a very rapid progression of events due to a HOSTILE ACTION. It is not intended to address incidents that are accidental events or acts of civil disobedience, such as small aircraft impact, hunters, or physical disputes between employees within the PROTECTED AREA. Those event s are adequately addressed by other EALs. Escalation of this emergency classification level, if appropriate, would be based on actual plant status after impact or progression of attack.

K-59 Rev. 50 Intentionally Left Blank K-60 Rev. 48 ¶HA1 Initiating Condition Natural and Destructive Phenomena A ffecting the Plant VITAL AREA.

Operating Mode Applicability:

All Threshold Values: (1, OR 2, OR 3, OR 4, OR 5, OR 6) 1. A felt earthquake validated in accordance with FNP-1-ARP-1.12, LOCATION MK5 indicates Seismic event greater than Operating Basis Earthquake (OBE).

2. Tornado OR high winds greater than 115 mph within the PROTECTED AREA boundary AND resulting in VISIBLE DAMAGE to any of the following plant structures/equipment OR the Control Room has indication of degraded performance of any listed systems: Containment Auxiliary Building Service Water Intake Structure (SWIS) Service Water Pond Refueling Water Storage Tank (RWST) Condensate Storage Tank (CST) Diesel Generator Building

3. Vehicle crash within PROTECTED AREA boundary AND resulting in VISIBLE DAMAGE to any of the following plant structures OR equipment therein OR Control Room has indication of degraded performance of those systems: Containment Auxiliary Building Service Water Intake Structure (SWIS) Service Water Pond Refueling Water Storage Tank (RWST) Condensate Storage Tank (CST) Diesel Generator Building

4. Turbine failure-generated missiles result in any VISIBLE DAMAGE to OR penetration of any of the following plant areas containing safety-related equipment, their controls OR their power supplies. Containment Auxiliary Building Refueling Water Storage Tank (RWST) Condensate Storage Tank (CST) Diesel Generator Building Control Room

5. Uncontrolled flooding in the following areas that results in degraded safety system performance as indicated in the control room OR that creates industrial safety hazards (e.g., electric shock) that precludes access necessary to operate OR monitor safety equipment.

Service Water Intake Structure (SWIS) Auxiliary Building Turbine Building Basement

6. Sustained hurricane winds greater than 74 mph onsite resulting in VISIBLE DAMAGE to plant structures within the PROTECTED AREA boundary containing equipment necessary for safe shutdown, or has caused damage as evidenced by control room indication of

degraded performance of those systems K-61 Rev. 58 ¶ Basis: PROTECTED AREA: the area which normally encompasses all controlled areas within the security protected area fence.

VISIBLE DAMAGE: is damage to equipment or structure that is readily observable without measurements, testing, or analysis. Damage is sufficient to cause concern regarding the continued operability or reliability of affected safety structure, system, or component. Example damage includes: deformation due to heat or impact, denting, penetration, rupture, cracking, paint blistering. Surface blemishes (e.g., paint chipping, scratches) should not be included.

The Threshold Values in this IC escalate from the NOUE Threshold Values in HU1 in that the occurrence of the event has resulted in VISIBLE DAMAGE to plant structures or areas containing equipment necessary for a safe shutdown, or has caused damage to the safety systems in those structures evidenced by control indications of degraded system response or performance. The occurrence of VISIBLE DAMAGE and/or degraded system response is intended to discriminate against lesser events. The initial "report" should not be interpreted as mandating a lengthy damage assessment prior to classification. No attempt is made in this Threshold Value to assess the actual magnitude of the damage. The significance here is not that a particular system or structure was damaged, but rather, that the event was of sufficient magnitude to cause this degradation.

Threshold Value #1 is based on the OBE earthquake FSAR design basis. Seismic events of this magnitude can result in a plant VITAL AREA being subjected to forces beyond design limits, and thus damage may be assumed to have occurred to plant safety systems.

Threshold Value #2 is based on the FSAR design basis. Wind loads greater than 115 mph can cause damage to safety functions and is read from the plant meteorological tower.

Threshold Value #3 addresses crashes of vehicle types large enough to cause significant damage to plant structures containing functions and systems required for safe shutdown of the plant.

Threshold Value #4 addresses the threat to safety related equipment imposed by missiles generated by main turbine rotating component failures. This list of areas include areas containing safety-related equipment, their controls, and their power supplies. This Threshold Value is, therefore, consistent with the definition of an ALERT in that if missiles have damaged or penetrated areas containing safety-related equipment the potential exists for substantial degradation of the level of safety of the plant.

K-62 Rev. 58 Threshold Value #5 addresses the effect of internal flooding that has resulted in degraded performance of systems affected by the flooding, or has created industrial safety hazards (e.g., electrical shock) that preclude necessary access to operate or monitor safety equipment. The inability to operate or monitor safety equipment represents a potential for substantial degradation of the level of safety of the plant. This flooding may have been caused by internal events such as component failures, equipment misalignment, or outage activity mishaps. TS-PSA-001, Table 3.3.6-4 provides that the SWIS is vulnerable due to failure of the cooling water lines or discharge expansion joints. The Auxiliary Building is vulnerable due to failure of the Service Water piping. The Turbine Building basement is vulnerable to Circulating Water line breaks. The areas include those areas that contain systems required for safe shutdown of the plant, that are not designed to be wetted or submerged.

Threshold Value #6 covers site-specific phenomena of a hurricane. The Threshold Value is based on damage attributable to the wind.

K-63 Rev. 64 ¶HA2 Initiating Condition FIRE OR EXPLOSION Affecting the Operability of Plant Safety Systems Required to Establish or Maintain Safe Shutdown.

Operating Mode Applicability:

All Threshold Value:

(1) 1. FIRE OR EXPLOSION AND affected system parameter indications show degraded performance OR plant personnel report VISIBLE DAMAGE to permanent structures OR safety related equipment in any of the following VITAL AREAs

Containment Auxiliary Building Service Water Intake Structure (SWIS) Service Water Pond Storage Pond Dam and Dike Pond Spillway Structure Refueling Water Storage Tank (RWST) Condensate Storage Tank (CST) Diesel Generator Building Control Room Basis: FIRE: is combustion characterized by heat and light. Sources of smoke such as slipping drive belts or overheated electrical equipment do not constitute FIREs. Observation of flame is preferred but is NOT required if large quantities of smoke and heat are observed.

EXPLOSION: is a rapid, violent, unconfined combustion, or catastrophic failure of pressurized equipment that imparts energy of sufficient force to potentially damage permanent structures, systems, or components.

VITAL AREA: any area, normally within the PROTECTED AREA, which contains equipment, systems, components, or material, the failure, destruction, or release of which could directly or indirectly endanger the public health and safety by exposure to radiation.

VISIBLE DAMAGE: is damage to equipment or structure that is readily observable without measurements, testing, or analysis. Damage is sufficient to cause concern regarding the continued operability or reliability of affected safety structure, system, or component. Example damage includes: deformation due to heat or impact, denting, penetration, rupture, cracking, paint blistering. Surface blemishes (e.g., paint chipping, scratches) should not be included.

The areas listed contain functions and systems required for the safe shutdown of the plant to determine if the FIRE or EXPLOSION is potentially affecting any redundant trains of safety systems.

This Threshold Value addresses a FIRE / EXPLOSION and not the degradation in performance of affected systems. The reference to damage of systems is used to identify the magnitude of the FIRE / EXPLOSION and to discriminate against minor FIREs / EXPLOSIONs. The K-64 Rev. 64 significance here is not that a safety system was degraded but the fact that the FIRE / EXPLOSION was large enough to cause damage to these systems. Thus, the designation of a single train was intentional and is appropriate when the FIRE / EXPLOSION is large enough to affect more than one component.

The inclusion of a "report of VISIBLE DAMAGE" should not be interpreted as mandating a lengthy damage assessment prior to classification. The occurrence of the EXPLOSION with reports of evidence of damage is sufficient for declaration. The Emergency Director also needs to consider any security aspects of the EXPLOSIONs, if applicable.

K-65 Rev. 64 ¶HA3 Initiating Condition Release of Toxic, Asphyxiant or Flamm able Gases Within or Contiguous to a VITAL AREA Which Jeopardize s Operation of Systems Required to Maintain Safe Operations or Establish or Maintain Safe Shutdown.

Operating Mode Applicability:

All Threshold Values: (1 OR 2) 1. Report OR detection of toxic OR asphyxiant gas within OR contiguous to a VITAL AREA in concentrations that may result in an atmosphere IMMEDIATELY DANGEROUS TO LIFE AND HEALTH (IDLH).

2. Report OR detection of flammable gases in concentration greater than the LOWER FLAMMABILITY LIMIT within OR contiguous to a VITAL AREA.

Basis: VITAL AREA: any area, normally within the PROTECTED AREA, which contains equipment, systems, components, or material, the failure, destruction, or release of which could directly or indirectly endanger the public health and safety by exposure to radiation.

IMMEDIATELY DANGEROUS TO LIFE AND HEALTH (IDLH): A condition that either poses an immediate threat to life and health or an immediate threat of severe exposure to contaminants which are likely to have adverse delayed effects on health.

LOWER FLAMMABILITY LIMIT (LFL): The minimum concentration of a combustible substance that is capable of propagating a flame through a homogenous mixture of the combustible and a gaseous oxidizer.

CONTIGUOUS: being in actual contact: touching along a boundary or at a point.

This IC is based on gases that affect the safe operation of the plant. This IC applies to buildings and areas contiguous to plant VITAL AREAs or other significant buildings or areas (i.e., service water pump house). The intent of this IC is not to include buildings (e.g., warehouses) or other areas that are not contiguous or immediately adjacent to plant VITAL AREAs.

Threshold Value #1 is met if measurement of toxic gas concentration results in an atmosphere

that is IDLH within a VITAL AREA or any area or building contiguous to VITAL AREA. Exposure to an IDLH atmosphere will result in immediate harm to unprotected personnel, and would preclude access to any such affected areas.

Threshold Value #2 is met when the flammable gas concentration in a VITAL AREA or any building or area contiguous to a VITAL AREA exceed the LOWER FLAMMABILITY LIMIT. This Threshold Value addresses concentrations at which gases can ignite/support combustion. An K-66 Rev. 64 uncontrolled release of flammable gasses within a facility structure has the potential to affect safe operation of the plant by limiting either operator or equipment operations due to the potential for ignition and resulting equipment damage/personnel injury. Once it has been determined that an uncontrolled release is occurring, then sampling must be done to determine if the concentration of the released gas is within this range.

In accordance with NMP-FLS-005, Confined Space Procedure, examples of hazardous atmospheres include but are not limited to the following:

Oxygen concentration less than 19.5% or greater than 23.5%.

Flammable gas concentration at greater than 10% of the LFL or Lower Explosive Limit (LEL).

Air contaminate concentration in excess of the Permissible Exposure Limits (PEL) as published by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) or a Threshold Limit Valve (TLV) published by the American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH).

Any other atmospheric condition that is immediately dangerous to life and health.

K-67 Rev. 50 ¶HA4 Initiating Condition HOSTILE ACTION within the OWNER CONTROLLED AREA or Airborne Attack Threat. Operating Mode Applicability:

All Threshold Values:

(1 OR 2) 1. A HOSTILE ACTION is occurring or has occurred within the OWNER CONTROLED AREA as reported by the security shift supervision.

2. A validated notification from NRC of an airliner attack threat within 30 minutes of the site.

Basis: Note: Timely and accurate communication between Security Shift Supervision and the Control Room is crucial for the implementation of effective Security EALs.

These EALs address the contingency for a very rapid progression of events, such as that experienced on September 11, 2001. They are not premised solely on the potential for a radiological release. Rather the issue includes the need for rapid assistance due to the possibility for significant and indeterminate damage from additional air, land, or water attack elements.

The fact that the site is under serious attack or is an identified attack target with minimal time available for further preparation or additional assistance to arrive requires a heightened state of readiness and implementation of protective measures that can be effective (such as on-site evacuation, dispersal, or sheltering).

Threshold 1 addresses the potential for a very rapid progression of events due to a HOSTILE ACTION. It is not intended to address incidents that are accidental events or acts of civil disobedience, such as small aircraft impact, hunters, or physical disputes between employees

within the OCA. Those events are adequately addressed by other EALs.

Threshold 2 addresses the immediacy of an expected threat arrival or impact on the site within a

relatively short time.

The intent of this EAL is to ensure that notifications for the airliner attack threat are made in a timely manner and that Offsite Response Organizations and plant personnel are at a state of heightened awareness regarding the credible threat. Airliner is meant to be a large aircraft with the potential for causing significant damage to the plant.

K-68 Rev. 50 This EAL is met when a plant receives information regarding an airliner attack threat from NRC and the airliner is within 30 minutes of the plant. Only the plant to which the specific threat is made need declare the Alert.

The NRC Headquarters Operations Officer (HOO) will communicate to the licensee if the threat involves an airliner (airliner is meant to be a large aircraft with the potential for causing significant damage to the plant). The status and size of the plane may be provided by NORAD through the NRC.

K-69 Rev. 48 ¶HA5 Initiating Condition Control Room Evacuati on Has Been Initiated.

Operating Mode Applicability:

All Threshold Value:

(1) 1. Entry into AOP-28.0, Control Room Inaccessibility, for Control Room evacuation.

Basis: With the control room evacuated, additional support, monitoring and direction through the Technical Support Center and/or other emergency response facility is necessary. Inability to establish plant control from outside the control room will escalate this event to a Site Area Emergency.

K-70 Rev. 48 ¶HA6 Initiating Condition Other Conditions Existing Which in t he Judgment of the Emergency Director Warrant Declaration of an Alert.

Operating Mode Applicability:

All Threshold Value:

(1) 1. Other conditions exist which in the judgment of the Emergency Director indicate that events are in process OR have occurred which involve actual OR likely potential substantial degradation of the level of safety of the plant OR a security event that involves probable life threatening risk to site personnel or damage to site equipment because of intentional malicious dedicated efforts of HOSTILE ACTION. Any releases are expected to be limited to small fractions of the EPA Protective Action Guideline exposure levels.

Basis: HOSTILE ACTION - An act toward a Nuclear Power Plant (NPP) or its personnel that includes the use of violent force to destroy equipment, take hostages, and /or intimidate the licensee to achieve an end. This includes attack by air, land, or water using weapons, explosives, projectiles, vehicles, or other devices used to deliver destructive force. Other acts that satisfy the overall intent may be included. HOSTILE ACTION should not be construed to include acts of civil disobedience or felonious acts that are not part of a concerted attack on the NPP. Non-terrorism-based Threshold Values should be used to address such activities, (e.g., violent acts between individuals in the owner controlled area.)

This Threshold Value is intended to address unanticipated conditions not addressed explicitly elsewhere but that warrant declaration of an emergency because conditions exist which are believed by the Emergency Director to fall under the Alert emergency class.

K-71 Rev. 50 ¶Intentionally Left Blank

K-72 Rev. 50 Intentionally Left Blank

K-73 Rev. 50 Intentionally Left Blank

K-74 Rev. 48 ¶HU1 Initiating Condition Natural and Destructive Phenomena Affecting the PROTECTED AREA.

Operating Mode Applicability:

All Threshold Value: (1 OR 2 OR 3 OR 4 OR 5 OR 6 OR 7) 1. A felt earthquake validated in accordance with FNP-1-ARP-1.12, LOCATION MK5.

2. Report by plant personnel of tornado OR high winds greater than 115 mph striking within the PROTECTED AREA boundary.

3. Crash of vehicle, large enough to cause significant damage, into plant structures containing functions or systems required for safe shutdown within the PROTECTED AREA boundary.

4. Report by plant personnel of an unanticipated EXPLOSION within the PROTECTED AREA boundary resulting in VISIBLE DAMAGE to permanent structures OR equipment.

5. Report of turbine failure resulting in casing penetration OR damage to turbine OR generator seals.

6. Uncontrolled flooding in the following areas:

Service Water Intake Structure (SWIS) Auxiliary Building Turbine Building Basement

7. Sustained hurricane force winds greater than 74 mph forecast to be at the plant site in the next four hours in accordance with FNP-0-AOP-21.0.

Basis: PROTECTED AREA: the area which normally encompasses all controlled areas within the security protected area fence.

EXPLOSION: is a rapid, violent, unconfined combustion, or catastrophic failure of pressurized equipment that imparts energy of sufficient force to potentially damage permanent structures, systems, or components.

VISIBLE DAMAGE: is damage to equipment or structure that is readily observable without measurements, testing, or analysis. Damage is sufficient to cause concern regarding the continued operability or reliability of affected safety structure, system, or component. Example damage includes: deformation due to heat or impact, denting, penetration, rupture, cracking, paint blistering. Surface blemishes (e.g., paint chipping, scratches) should not be included.

K-75 Rev. 48 These ICs are categorized on the basis of the occurrence of an event of sufficient magnitude to be of concern to plant operators. Areas identified in the Threshold Values define the location of the event based on the potential for damage to equipment contained therein.

Threshold Value #1 - As defined in the EPRI-sponsored "Guidelines for Nuclear Plant Response to an Earthquake", dated October 1989, a "felt earthquake" is: An earthquake of sufficient intensity such that: (a) the vibratory ground motion is felt at the nuclear plant site and recognized as an earthquake based on a consensus of control room operators on duty at the time, and (b) for plants with operable seismic instrumentation, the seismic switches of the plant are activated. For most plants with seismic instrumentation, the seismic switches are set at an acceleration of about 0.01g.

Threshold Value #2 is based on the assumption that a tornado striking (touching down) or high winds within the PROTECTED AREA may have potentially damaged plant structures containing functions or systems required for safe shutdown of the plant. The high wind 115 mph value is based on FSAR design basis. If such damage is confirmed visually or by other in-plant indications, the event may be escalated to Alert.

Threshold Value #3 addresses crashes of vehicle types large enough to cause significant damage to plant structures containing functions and systems required for safe shutdown of the plant. For Threshold Value #4 only those EXPLOSIONs of sufficient force to damage permanent structures or equipment within the PROTECTED AREA should be considered. No attempt is made in this Threshold Value to assess the actual magnitude of the damage. The occurrence of the EXPLOSION with reports of evidence of damage is sufficient for declaration. The Emergency director also needs to consider any security aspects of the EXPLOSION, if applicable.

Threshold Value #5 addresses main turbine rotating component failures of sufficient magnitude to cause observable damage to the turbine casing or to the seals of the turbine generator. Of major concern is the potential for leakage of combustible fluids (lubricating oils) and gases (hydrogen cooling) to the plant environs. Generator seal damage observed after generator purge does not meet the intent of this Threshold Value because it did not impact normal operation of the plant. This Threshold Value is consistent with the definition of a NOUE while maintaining the anticipatory nature desired and recognizing the risk to non-safety related equipment.

Threshold Value #6 addresses the effect of flooding caused by internal events such as component failures, equipment misalignment, or outage activity mishaps. The areas included are those areas that contain systems required for safe shutdown of the plant, that are not designed to be wetted or submerged. TS-PSA-001, Table 3.3.6-4 provides that the SWIS is vulnerable due to failure of the cooling water lines or discharge expansion joints. The Auxiliary Building is vulnerable due to failure of the Service Water piping. The Turbine Building basement is vulnerable to Circulating Water line breaks causing loss of Service Air. Escalation of the emergency classification is based on the damage caused or by access restrictions that prevent necessary plant operations or systems monitoring.

Threshold Value #7 covers site-specific phenomena of the hurricane based on the severe weather mitigation procedure.

K-76 Rev. 59 ¶HU2 Initiating Condition FIRE Within PROTECTED AREA Boundary Not Extinguished Within 15 Minutes of Detection.

Operating Mode Applicability:

All Threshold Value:

(1) 1. FIRE in buildings OR areas contiguous to any of the following areas NOT extinguished within 15 minutes of control room notification OR control room alarm unless disproved by personnel observation within 15 minutes of the alarm:

Containment Service Water Intake Structure (SWIS)

Auxiliary Building Refueling Water Storage Tank (RWST) Diesel Generator Building Condensate Storage Tank (CST) Control Room Basis: FIRE: is combustion characterized by heat and light. Sources of smoke such as slipping drive belts or overheated electrical equipment do not constitute FIREs. Observation of flame is preferred but is NOT required if large quantities of smoke and heat are observed.

CONTIGUOUS: being in actual contact: touching along a boundary or at a point.

PROTECTED AREA: the area which normally encompasses all controlled areas within the security protected area fence.

The purpose of this IC is to address the magnitude and extent of FIREs that may be potentially significant precursors to damage to safety systems. As used here, Detection is visual observation and report by plant personnel or sensor alarm indication.

The 15 minute time period begins with a credible notification that a FIRE is occurring, or indication of a VALID fire detection system alarm. Verification of a fire detection system alarm includes actions that can be taken with the control room or other nearby site-specific location to ensure that the alarm is not spurious. A verified alarm is assumed to be an indication of a FIRE unless it is disproved within the 15 minute period by personnel dispatched to the scene. In other words, a personnel report from the scene may be used to disprove a sensor alarm if received within 15 minutes of the alarm, but shall not be required to verify the alarm.

K-77 Rev. 59 The intent of this 15 minute duration is to size the FIRE and to discriminate against small FIREs that are readily extinguished (e.g., smoldering waste paper basket). The site-specific list should be limited and applies to buildings and areas contiguous to plant VITAL AREAs or other significant buildings or areas.

K-78 Rev. 64 ¶HU3 Initiating Condition Release of Toxic, Asphyxiant, or Fl ammable Gases Deemed Detrimental to Normal Operation of the Plant.

Operating Mode Applicability:

All Threshold Values:

(1 OR 2) 1. Report OR detection of toxic, asphyxiant, OR flammable gas that has OR could enter the Owner Controlled Area in amounts greater than life threatening OR flammable concentrations that can affect NORMAL PLANT OPERATIONS.

2. Report by Local, County, OR State Officials for evacuation OR sheltering of site personnel based on an offsite toxic, asphyxiant, OR flammable gas event.

Basis: NORMAL PLANT OPERATIONS: activities at the plant site associated with routine testing, maintenance, or equipment operations, in accordance with normal operating or administrative procedures. Entry into abnormal or emergency operating procedures, or deviation from normal security or radiological controls posture, is a departure from NORMAL PLANT OPERATIONs.

This IC is based on the existence of uncontrolled releases of toxic, asphyxiant, or flammable gas that may enter the Owner Controlled Area and affect normal plant operations. It is intended that releases of toxic or flammable gases are of sufficient quantity, and the release point of such gases is such that normal plant operations would be affected. Offsite events are included through a warning by local officials as the resultant affect on NORMAL PLANT OPERATIONS would be the same. This would preclude small or incidental releases, or releases that do not impact structures needed for plant operation. The Threshold Values are not intended to require significant assessment or quantification. The IC assumes an uncontrolled process that has the potential to affect plant operations, or personnel safety.

In accordance with NMP-FLS-005, Confined Space Procedure, examples of hazardous atmospheres include but are not limited to the following:

Oxygen concentration less than 19.5% or greater than 23.5%.

Flammable gas concentration at greater than 10% of the LFL or Lower Explosive Limit (LEL).

Air contaminate concentration in excess of the Permissible Exposure Limits (PEL) as published by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) or a Threshold Limit Valve (TLV) published by the American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH).

Any other atmospheric condition that is immediately dangerous to life and health.

K-79 Rev. 64 ¶HU4 Initiating Condition Confirmed SECURITY CONDITION or Th reat Which Indicates a Potential Degradation in the Level of Safety of the Plant.

Operating Mode Applicability:

All Threshold Values: (1 OR 2 OR 3) 1. A SECURITY CONDITION that does NOT involve a HOSTILE ACTION as reported by security shift supervision.

2. A CREDIBLE FNP security THREAT notification.

3. A validated notification from NRC providing information of an aircraft threat.

Basis: Note: Timely and accurate communication between Security Shift Supervision and the Control Room is crucial for the implementation of effective Security EALs.

SECURITY CONDITION: Any Security Event as listed in the approved security contingency plan that constitutes a threat/compromise to site security, threat/risk to site personnel, or a potential degradation to the level of safety of the plant. A SECURITY CONDITION does not involve a HOSTILE ACTION.

CREDIBLE THREAT: A threat is considered credible through use of FNP-0-SP-37, Threat Assessment and Security Force Protection Recommendations.

Security events which do not represent a potential degradation in the level of safety of the plant are reported under 10 CFR 73.71 or in some cases under 10 CFR 50.72. Security events assessed as HOSTILE ACTIONS are classifiable under HA4, HS4 and HG1.

A higher initial classification could be made based upon the nature and timing of the security threat and potential consequences. The licensee shall consider upgrading the emergency response status and emergency classification level in accordance with the site's Safeguards Contingency Plan and Emergency Plan.

In Threshold #1 reference is made to security shift supervision because these individuals are the designated personnel on-site qualified and trained to confirm that a security event is occurring or has occurred. Training on security event classification confirmation is closely controlled due to the strict secrecy controls placed on the plant FNP Safeguards Contingency

Plan.

This threshold is based on site specific security plans. Site specific Safeguards Contingency Plans are based on guidance provided by NEI 03-12.

K-80 Rev. 64 The intent of Threshold Value 2 is to ensure that appropriate notifications for the security threat are made in a timely manner. This includes information of a CREDIBLE THREAT. Only the plant to which the specific threat is made need declare the Notification of an Unusual Event.

The intent of Threshold Value 3 is to ensure that notifications for the security threat are made in a timely manner and that Offsite Response Organizations and plant personnel are at a state of heightened awareness regarding the credible threat. It is not the intent of this EAL to replace existing non-hostile related EALs involving aircraft.

This Threshold Value is met when a plant receives information regarding an aircraft threat from NRC. Validation is performed by calling the NRC or by other approved methods of authentication. Only the plant to which the specific threat is made need declare the Unusual Event. The NRC Headquarters Operations Officer (HOO) will communicate to the licensee if the threat involves an airliner (airliner is meant to be a large aircraft with the potential for causing significant damage to the plant). The status and size of the plane may be provided by NORAD through the NRC. Escalation to Alert emergency classification level would be via HA4 would be appropriate if the threat involves an airliner within 30 minutes of the plant. A higher initial classification could be made based upon the nature and timing of the threat and potential consequences. The Emergency Director shall consider upgrading the emergency response status and emergency classification in accordance with the FNP Safeguards Contingency Plan and Emergency Plan implementing Procedures.

K-81 Rev. 48 ¶HU5 Initiating Condition Other Conditions Existing Which in t he Judgment of the Emergency Director Warrant Declaration of a NOUE.

Operating Mode Applicability:

All Threshold Value: (1) 1. Other conditions exist which in the judgment of the Emergency Director indicate that events are in process OR have occurred which indicate a potential degradation of the level of safety of the plant OR indicate a security threat to facility protection has been initiated. No releases of radioactive material requiring offsite response OR monitoring are expected unless further degradation of safety systems occurs.

Basis: This Threshold Value is intended to address unanticipated conditions not addressed explicitly elsewhere but that warrant declaration of an emergency because conditions exist which are believed by the Emergency Director to fall under the NOUE emergency class.

From a broad perspective, one area that may warrant Emergency Director judgment is related to likely or actual breakdown of site-specific event mitigating actions. Examples to consider include inadequate emergency response procedures, transient response either unexpected or not understood, failure or unavailability of emergency systems during an accident in excess of that assumed in accident analysis, or insufficient availability of equipment and/or support personnel.

K-82 Rev. 48 ¶E-HU1 Initiating Condition Damage to a loaded cask CO NFINEMENT BOUNDARY.

Operating Mode Applicability: Not applicable Threshold Value: (1) 1. Damage to a loaded dry fuel storage cask CONFINEMENT BOUNDARY due to natural phenomena events, accident conditions OR any condition in the opinion of the Emergency Director that affects OR causes a loss of loaded dry fuel storage cask CONFINEMENT BOUNDARY.

Basis:

CONFINEMENT BOUNDARY: is the barrier(s) between areas containing radioactive substances and the environment.

A NOUE in this IC is categorized on the basis of the occurrence of an event of sufficient magnitude that a loaded cask CONFINEMENT BOUNDARY is damaged or violated. This includes classification based on a loaded fuel storage cask CONFINEMENT BOUNDARY loss leading to the degradation of the fuel during storage or posing an operational safety problem with respect to its removal from storage.

Any condition, which, in the judgment of the Emergency Director, is a potential degradation in the level of safety of the ISFSI. Emergency Director judgment is to be based on known conditions and the expected response to mitigating activities within a short time period.

K-83 Rev. 62 CG1 Initiating Condition Loss of RPV Inventory Affecting Fuel Clad Integrity with Containm ent Challenged with Irradiated Fuel in the RPV.

Operating Mode Applicability:

Cold Shutdown (Mode 5) Refueling (Mode 6)

Threshold Values: (1 AND 2 AND 3) 1. Loss of RPV inventory as indicated by ANY of the following: Unexplained Containment sump level rise Unexplained Reactor Coolant Drain Tank (RCDT) level rise Unexplained Waste Holdup Tank (WHT) level rise AND 2. RPV Level: a. Less than elevation 118' (Top of Active Fuel) for greater than 30 minutes OR b. RPV level CANNOT be monitored WITH indication of core uncovery for greater than 30 minutes as evidenced by ANY of the following: Incore Seal Table RE7 > 3 mR/hr Erratic Source Range Monitor Indication AND 3. Containment challenged as indicated by ANY of the following: Explosive mixture inside containment greater than OR equal to 6% H 2 Pressure greater than OR equal to 5 psig WITH CONTAINMENT CLOSURE established greater than OR equal to 54 psig WITH Tech Spec containment integrity intact CONTAINMENT CLOSURE NOT established Basis: CONTAINMENT CLOSURE: per FNP-1-STP-18.4, "Containment Integrity Verification and Closure".

For Threshold Value 1 in the cold shutdown mode, normal RCS level and RPV level instrumentation systems will normally be available. However, if all level indication were to be lost during a loss of RCS inventory event, the operators would need to determine that RPV inventory loss was occurring by observing sump and tank level changes. Sump and tank level rises must be evaluated against other potential sources of leakage such as cooling water sources inside the containment to ensure they are indicative of RCS leakage.

For Threshold Value 1 in the refueling mode, normal means of RPV level indication may not be

available. Redundant means of RPV level indication will be normally installed to assure that the ability to monitor level will not be interrupted. However, if all level indication were to be lost during a loss of RCS inventory event, the operators would need to determine that RPV inventory loss was occurring K-84 Rev. 48 by observing sump and tank level changes. For both cold shutdown and refueling modes sump and tank level rises must be evaluated against other potential sources of leakage such as cooling water sources inside the containment to ensure they are indicative of RCS leakage.

Threshold Value 2 represents the inability to restore and maintain RPV level to above the top of active fuel. Fuel damage is probable if RPV level cannot be restored, as available decay heat will cause boiling, further reducing the RPV level.

Analysis in appropriate references indicates that core damage may occur within an hour following continued core uncovery therefore, conservatively, 30 minutes was chosen.

The GE is declared on the occurrence of the loss or imminent loss of function of all three barriers. Based on the above discussion, RCS barrier failure resulting in core uncovery for 30 minutes or more may cause fuel clad failure. With the CONTAINMENT breached or challenged then the potential for unmonitored fission product release to the environment is high. This represents a direct path for radioactive inventory to be released to the environment. This is consistent with the definition of a GE.

In the context of Threshold Value 3, CONTAINMENT CLOSURE is the action taken to secure containment and its associated structures, systems, and components as a functional barrier to fission product release under existing plant conditions. If the closure is re-established prior to exceeding the temperature or level thresholds of the RCS Barrier and Fuel Clad Barrier Threshold Values, escalation to GE would not occur.

The site-specific pressure at which CONTAINMENT is considered challenged may change based on the condition of the CONTAINMENT. If the Unit is in the cold shutdown mode and the CONTAINMENT is fully intact then the site-specific setpoint is the CONTAINMENT design pressure (54 psig). This is consistent with typical owner's groups Emergency Response Procedures. With CONTAINMENT CLOSURE established intentionally by the plant staff in preparations for inspection, maintenance, or refueling the setpoint is based on the penetration seals design of 5 psig.

In the early stages of a core uncovery event, it is unlikely that hydrogen buildup due to a core uncovery could result in an explosive mixture of dissolved gasses in CONTAINMENT. However, CONTAINMENT monitoring and/or sampling should be performed to verify this assumption and a General Emergency declared if it is determined that an explosive mixture exists.

K-85 Rev. 48 ¶CS1 Initiating Condition Loss of RPV Inventory Affecting Core Decay Heat Removal Capability.

Operating Mode Applicability:

Cold Shutdown (Mode 5)

Threshold Values:

(1 OR 2) 1. Loss of Reactor Pressure Vessel (RPV) inventory affecting core decay heat removal capability with CONTAINMENT CLOSURE NOT established as indicated by:

a. RPV level less than 121' (6" below Bottom ID of RCS loop)

OR b. RPV level CANNOT be monitored for greater than 30 minutes with a possible loss of RPV inventory as indicated by unexplained level rise in any of the following:

Containment sump Reactor Coolant Drain Tank (RCDT) Waste Holdup Tank (WHT)

2. Loss of RPV inventory affecting core decay heat removal capability with CONTAINMENT CLOSURE established as indicated by:

a. RPV level less than 118' (Top of Active Fuel (TOAF)) OR b. RPV level CANNOT be monitored for greater than 30 minutes with a possible loss of RPV inventory as indicated by ANY of the following:

Containment sump level rise Unexplained Reactor Coolant Drain Tank (RCDT) level rise Unexplained Waste Holdup Tank (WHT) level rise Erratic Source Range monitor indication Basis: CONTAINMENT CLOSURE: per FNP-1-STP-18.4, Containment Integrity Verification and Closure".

Under the conditions specified by this IC, continued lowering in RPV level is indicative of a loss of inventory control. Inventory loss may be due to an RPV breach, pressure boundary leakage, or continued boiling in the RPV.

In the cold shutdown mode, normal RCS level and reactor vessel level indication systems (RVLIS) will normally be available. However, if all level indication were to be lost during a loss of RCS inventory event, the operators would need to determine that RPV inventory loss was occurring by observing sump and tank level changes. Sump and tank level rises must be evaluated against other potential K-86 Rev. 48 sources of leakage such as cooling water sources inside the containment to ensure they are indicative of RCS leakage.

The 30 minute duration allows sufficient time for actions to be performed to recover needed cooling equipment. The effluent release path is not expected with closure established.

K-87 Rev. 62 ¶CS2 Initiating Condition Loss of RPV Inventory Affecting Core Deca y Heat Removal Capability with Irradiated Fuel in the RPV.

Operating Mode Applicability:

Refueling (Mode 6)

Threshold Values:

(1 OR 2) 1. WITH CONTAINMENT CLOSURE NOT established:

a. RPV level less than elevation 121' (6" below Bottom ID of RCS loop). OR b. RPV level CANNOT be monitored WITH indication of core uncovery as evidenced by ANY of the following:

Incore Seal Table R7 > 3 mR/hr Erratic Source Range Monitor Indication

2. WITH CONTAINMENT CLOSURE established

a. RPV level less than elevation 118' (Top of Active Fuel).

OR b. RPV level CANNOT be monitored WITH Indication of core uncovery as evidenced by ANY of the following:

Containment High Range Radiation Monitor R27 A OR B > 100 R/hr Incore Seal Table R7 > 3 mR/hr Erratic Source Range Monitor Indication Basis: CONTAINMENT CLOSURE: per FNP-1-STP-18.4, Containment Integrity Verification and Closure".

Under the conditions specified by this IC, continued lowering in RPV level is indicative of a loss of inventory control. Inventory loss may be due to an RPV breach or continued boiling in the RPV.

As water level in the RPV lowers, the dose rate above the core will rise. The dose rate due to this core shine should result in up-scaled Containment High Range Monitor indication and possible alarm. Additionally, post-TMI studies indicated that the installed nuclear instrumentation will operate K-88 Rev. 48 erratically when the core is uncovered and that this should be used as a tool for making such determinations.

For Threshold Value 2 in the refueling mode, normal means of RPV level indication may not be available. Redundant means of RPV level indication will be normally installed (including the ability to monitor level visually) to assure that the ability to monitor level will not be interrupted.

This effluent release is not expected with closure established.

K-89 Rev. 48 ¶CA1 Initiating Condition Loss of RCS Inventory.

Operating Mode Applicability:

Cold Shutdown (Mode 5)

Threshold Values:

(1 OR 2) 1. Loss of RCS inventory as indicated by RPV level less than 121' 6" (bottom ID of RCS loop)

2. a. RCS level CANNOT be monitored for greater than 15 minutes AND b. A possible loss of RCS inventory may be occurring as indicated by unexplained level rise in ANY of the following: Containment sump Reactor Coolant Drain Tank (RCDT) Waste Holdup Tank (WHT)

Basis: These Threshold Values serve as precursors to a loss of ability to adequately cool the fuel. The magnitude of this loss of water indicates that makeup systems have not been effective and may not be capable of preventing further RPV level lowering and potential core uncovery.

The Bottom ID of the RCS Loop Setpoint was chosen because at this level remote RCS level indication may be lost and loss of suction to decay heat removal systems has occurred. The inability to restore and maintain level after reaching this setpoint would therefore be indicative of a failure of

the RCS barrier.

In the cold shutdown mode, normal RCS level and RPV level instrumentation systems will normally be available. However, if all level indication were to be lost during a loss of RCS inventory event, the operators would need to determine that RPV inventory loss was occurring by observing sump and tank level changes. Sump and tank level rises must be evaluated against other potential sources of leakage such as cooling water sources inside the containment to ensure they are indicative of RCS leakage. The 15-minute duration for the loss of level indication was chosen because it is half of the CS1 Site Area Emergency Threshold Value duration.

The difference between CA1 and CA2 deals with the RCS conditions that exist between cold shutdown and refueling mode applicability. In cold shutdown the RCS will normally be intact and standard RCS inventory and level monitoring means are available. In the refueling mode the RCS is not intact and RPV level and inventory are monitored by different means.

K-90 Rev. 48 ¶CA2 Initiating Condition Loss of RPV Inventory with Irradiated Fuel in the RPV.

Operating Mode Applicability:

Refueling (Mode 6)

Threshold Values:

(1 OR 2) 1. Loss of inventory as indicated by RPV level less than 121' 6" (bottom ID of RCS loop)

2. a. RPV level CANNOT be monitored for greater than 15 minutes AND b. A possible loss of RCS inventory may be occurring as indicated by unexplained level rise in ANY of the following:

Containment sump Reactor Coolant Drain Tank (RCDT) Waste Holdup Tank (WHT)

Basis: These Threshold Values serve as precursors to a loss of heat removal. The magnitude of this loss of water indicates that makeup systems have not been effective and may not be capable of preventing further RPV level lowering and potential core uncovery. This condition will result in a minimum classification of Alert.

The Bottom ID of the RCS Loop Setpoint was chosen because at this level remote RCS level indication may be lost and loss of suction to decay heat removal systems may occur. The inability to restore and maintain level after reaching this setpoint would therefore be indicative of a failure of the RCS barrier.

In the refueling mode, normal means of RPV level indication may not be available. Redundant means of RPV level indication will be normally installed to assure that the ability to monitor level will not be interrupted. Sump and tank level rises must be evaluated against other potential sources of leakage such as cooling water sources inside the containment to ensure they are indicative of RCS leakage.

The 15-minute duration allows CA2 to be an effective precursor to CS2.

The difference between CA1 and CA2 deals with the RCS conditions that exist between cold shutdown and refueling mode applicability. In cold shutdown the RCS will normally be intact and standard RCS inventory and level monitoring means are available. In the refueling mode the RCS is not intact and RPV level and inventory are monitored by different means.

K-91 Rev. 48 ¶CA3 Initiating Condition Loss of All Offsite Power AND Loss of All Onsite AC Power to Essential Busses.

Operating Mode Applicability:

Cold Shutdown (Mode 5)

Refueling (Mode 6)

Defueled Threshold Value:

1. a. Loss of offsite power to OR from Start Up Transformers 1(2)A AND 1(2)B resulting in loss of all offsite electrical power to BOTH 4160V ESF busses 1(2)F AND 1(2)G AND b. Failure of emergency diesel generators to supply power to emergency busses.

AND c. Failure to restore power to at least one emergency bus within 15 minutes from the time of loss of both offsite and onsite AC power.

Basis: Loss of all AC power compromises all plant safety systems requiring electric power including RHR, ECCS, Containment Heat Removal, Spent Fuel Heat Removal and the Ultimate Heat Sink. When in cold shutdown, refueling, or defueled mode the event can be classified as an Alert, because of the significantly reduced decay heat, lower temperature and pressure, increasing the time to restore one of the emergency busses. Fifteen minutes was selected as a threshold to exclude transient or momentary power losses.

Consideration should be given to operable loads necessary to remove decay heat or provide Reactor Vessel makeup capability when evaluating loss of AC power to essential busses. Even though an essential bus may be energized, if necessary loads (i.e., loads that if lost would inhibit decay heat removal capability or Reactor Vessel makeup capability) are not operable on the energized bus then the bus should not be considered operable.

K-92 Rev. 48 ¶CA4 Initiating Condition Inability to Maintain Plant in Cold S hutdown with Irradiated Fuel in the RPV.

Operating Mode Applicability:

Cold Shutdown (Mode 5)

Refueling (Mode 6)

Threshold Values:

( 1 OR 2 OR 3) 1. An UNPLANNED event results in RCS temperature exceeding 200

°F with: a. CONTAINMENT CLOSURE NOT established AND b. RCS integrity NOT established NOTE 1 The Emergency Director should not wait until the indicated time of Threshold Values 2 or 3 has elapsed, but should declare the event as soon as it is determined that the duration has or will likely be exceeded. NOTE 2 If an RCS heat removal system is in operation within this time frame and RCS temperature is being reduced then Thresho ld Values 2 and 3 are not applicable 2. An UNPLANNED event results in RCS temperature exceeding 200

°F for greater than 20 minutes (Note) with:

a. CONTAINMENT CLOSURE established AND b. RCS integrity NOT established OR c. RCS inventory reduced.

3. An UNPLANNED event results in:

a. RCS temperature exceeding 200

°F for greater than 60 minutes (Note) OR b. RCS pressure increasing greater than 10 psig Basis: UNPLANNED: a parameter change or an event that is not the result of an intended evolution and requires corrective or mitigative actions.

CONTAINMENT CLOSURE: per FNP-1-STP-18.4, "Containment Integrity Verification and Closure".

Threshold Value 1 addresses complete loss of functions required for core cooling during refueling and cold shutdown modes when neither CONTAINMENT CLOSURE nor RCS integrity are established. RCS integrity is in place when the RCS pressure boundary is in its normal condition for the cold shutdown mode of operation (e.g., no freeze seals or nozzle dams). No delay time is allowed for Threshold Value1 because the evaporated reactor coolant that may be released into the Containment during this heatup condition could also be directly released to the environment.

K-93 Rev. 48 Threshold Value 2 addresses the complete loss of functions required for core cooling for greater than 20 minutes during refueling and cold shutdown modes when CONTAINMENT CLOSURE is established but RCS integrity is not established or RCS inventory is reduced. As in Threshold Value 1, RCS integrity should be assumed to be in place when the RCS pressure boundary is in its normal condition for the cold shutdown mode of operation (e.g., no freeze seals or nozzle dams). The allowed 20 minute time frame was included to allow operator action to restore the heat removal function, if possible.

Threshold Value 3 addresses complete loss of functions required for core cooling for greater than 60 minutes during refueling and cold shutdown modes when RCS integrity is established. The status of CONTAINMENT CLOSURE in this Threshold Value is immaterial given that the RCS is providing a high pressure barrier to fission product release to the environment. The 60 minute time frame should allow sufficient time to restore cooling without there being a substantial degradation in plant safety. The 10 psig pressure rise covers situations where, due to high decay heat loads, the time provided to restore temperature control, should be less than 60 minutes.

The Emergency Director must remain alert to events or conditions that lead to the conclusion that exceeding the Threshold Value is imminent. If, in the judgment of the Emergency Director, an imminent situation is at hand, the classification should be made as if the threshold has been exceeded.

K-94 Rev. 48 ¶CU1 Initiating Condition RCS Leakage.

Operating Mode Applicability:

Cold Shutdown (Mode 5)

Threshold Values:

1. Unable to establish or maintain pressurizer level greater than 15%.

Basis: This IC is included as a NOUE because it is considered to be a potential degradation of the level of safety of the plant. The inability to establish and maintain level is indicative of loss of RCS inventory. Prolonged loss of RCS Inventory may result in escalation to the Alert level via either IC CA1 (Loss of RCS) or CA4 (Inability to Maintain Plant in Cold Shutdown with Irradiated Fuel in the RPV).

The difference between CU1 and CU2 deals with the RCS conditions that exist between cold shutdown and refueling mode applicability. In cold shutdown the RCS will normally be intact and RCS inventory and level monitoring means such as Pressurizer level indication and makeup volume control tank levels are normally available. In the refueling mode the RCS is not intact and RPV level and

inventory are monitored by different means.

K-95 Rev. 48 ¶CU2 Initiating Condition UNPLANNED Loss of RCS Inventory wit h Irradiated Fuel in the RPV.

Operating Mode Applicability:

Refueling (Mode 6)

Threshold Values:

(1 OR 2) 1. UNPLANNED RCS level lowering below 129' (RPV flange) for greater than OR equal to 15 minutes 2. a. RPV level CANNOT be monitored AND b. A possible loss of RPV inventory may be occurring as indicated by unexplained level rise in ANY of the following:

Containment sump Reactor Coolant Drain Tank (RCDT) Waste Holdup Tank (WHT)

Basis: UNPLANNED: a parameter change or an event that is not the result of an intended evolution and requires corrective or mitigative actions.

This IC is included as a NOUE because it may be a precursor of more serious conditions and, as result, is considered to be a potential degradation of the level of safety of the plant. Refueling evolutions that lower RCS water level below the RPV flange are carefully planned and procedurally controlled. An UNPLANNED event that results in water level decreasing below the RPV flange warrants declaration of a NOUE due to the reduced RCS inventory that is available to keep the core covered. The allowance of 15 minutes was chosen because it is reasonable to assume that level can be restored within this time frame using any of the redundant means of refill that should be available.

The difference between CU1 and CU2 deals with the RCS conditions that exist between cold shutdown and refueling modes. In cold shutdown the RCS will normally be intact and standard RCS inventory and level monitoring means are available. In the refueling mode the RCS is not intact and RPV level and inventory are monitored by different means.

In the refueling mode, normal means of core temperature indication and RCS level indication may not be available. Redundant means of RPV level indication will normally be installed to assure that the ability to monitor level will not be interrupted. Sump and tank level rises must be evaluated against other potential sources of leakage such as cooling water sources inside the containment to ensure

they are indicative of RCS leakage.

Threshold Value 1 involves a lowering in RCS level below the top of the RPV flange that continues for 15 minutes due to an UNPLANNED event.

K-96 Rev. 48 ¶CU3 Initiating Condition Loss of All Offsite Power to Essentia l Busses for Greater Than 15 Minutes.

Operating Mode Applicability:

Cold Shutdown (Mode 5) Refueling (Mode 6)

NOTE: A NOUE should not be made for pre-planned testing such as SI/LOSP testing.

Threshold Value:

1. a. Loss of offsite power to OR from Start Up Transformers 1(2)A AND 1(2)B resulting in loss of all offsite electrical power to BOTH 4160V ESF busses 1(2)F AND 1(2)G for greater than 15 minutes AND b. At least one emergency diesel generator supplying power to EITHER 4160V ESF buss 1(2)F OR 1(2)G. Basis: Prolonged loss of AC power reduces required redundancy and potentially degrades the level of safety of the plant by rendering the plant more vulnerable to a complete Loss of AC Power (e.g., Station Blackout). Fifteen minutes was selected as a threshold to exclude transient or momentary power losses.

K-97 Rev. 48 ¶ CU4 Initiating Condition UNPLANNED Loss of Decay Heat Removal Capabi lity with Irradiated Fuel in the RPV.

Operating Mode Applicability:

Cold Shutdown (Mode 5)

Refueling (Mode 6)

Threshold Values:

(1 OR 2) NOTE: The Emergency Director should not wait until 15 minutes has elapsed, but should declare the event as soon as it is determined that the duration has or will likely exceed the Threshold Value.

1. An UNPLANNED event results in RCS temperature exceeding 200

°F. 2. Loss of all RCS temperature AND RPV level indication for greater than 15 minutes.

Basis: UNPLANNED: a parameter change or an event that is not the result of an intended evolution and requires corrective or mitigative actions.

This IC is included as a NOUE because it may be a precursor of more serious conditions and, as a result, is considered to be a potential degradation of the level of safety of the plant. In cold shutdown the ability to remove decay heat relies primarily on forced cooling flow. Operation of the systems that provide this forced cooling may be jeopardized due to the unlikely loss of electrical power or RCS inventory. Since the RCS usually remains intact in the cold shutdown mode a large inventory of water is available to keep the core covered. In cold shutdown the decay heat available to raise RCS temperature during a loss of inventory or heat removal event may be significantly greater than in the refueling mode.

During refueling the level in the RPV will normally be maintained above the RPV flange. Refueling evolutions that lower water level below the RPV flange are carefully planned and procedurally controlled. Loss of forced decay heat removal at reduced inventory may result in more rapid rises in RCS/RPV temperatures depending on the time since shutdown.

Unlike the cold shutdown mode, normal means of core temperature indication and RCS level indication may not be available in the refueling mode. Redundant means of RPV level indication are therefore procedurally installed to assure that the ability to monitor level will not be interrupted. However, if all level and temperature indication were to be lost in either the cold shutdown of refueling modes, Threshold Value 2 would result in declaration of a NOUE if either temperature or level indication cannot be restored within 15 minutes from the loss of both means of indication.

The Emergency Director must remain attentive to events or conditions that lead to the conclusion that exceeding the Threshold Value is imminent. If, in the judgment of the Emergency Director, an imminent situation is at hand, the classification should be made as if the threshold has been

exceeded.

K-98 Rev. 48 ¶CU6 Initiating Condition UNPLANNED Loss of All Onsite OR Offsite Communications Capabilities.

Operating Mode Applicability:

Cold Shutdown (Mode 5) Refueling (Mode 6)

Threshold Values:

(1 OR 2) 1. UNPLANNED loss of ALL of the following on-site communications capability affecting the ability to perform routine operations:

In plant telephones Public address system Plant radio systems

2. UNPLANNED loss of ALL of the following off-site communications capability:

ENN (Emergency Notification Network)

ENS (Emergency Notification System) Commercial phones (Radio, PBX, Satellite, Wireless) VOIP (Voice Over Internet Protocol) OPX (Off Premise Extension)

Basis: UNPLANNED: a parameter change or an event that is not the result of an intended evolution and requires corrective or mitigative actions.

The purpose of this IC and its associated Threshold Values is to recognize a loss of communications capability that either defeats the plant operations staff ability to perform routine tasks necessary for plant operations or the ability to communicate problems with offsite authorities.

The availability of one method of ordinary offsite communications is sufficient to inform state and local authorities of plant problems. This Threshold Value is intended to be used only when extraordinary means (e.g., relaying of information from radio transmissions, individuals being sent to offsite locations, etc.) are being utilized to make communications possible.

K-99 Rev. 48 ¶CU7 Initiating Condition UNPLANNED Loss of Required DC Powe r for Greater than 15 Minutes.

Operating Mode Applicability:

Cold Shutdown (Mode 5)

Refueling (Mode 6)

Threshold Values:

(1a AND 1b) 1. a. UNPLANNED loss of Vital DC power to 125 VDC Bus A AND B indicated by bus voltage indications less than 105 VDC AND b. Failure to restore power to at least one DC bus within 15 minutes from the time of loss.

Basis: UNPLANNED: a parameter change or an event that is not the result of an intended evolution and requires corrective or mitigative actions.

The purpose of this IC and its associated Threshold Values is to recognize a loss of DC power compromising the ability to monitor and control the removal of decay heat during Cold Shutdown or Refueling operations. This Threshold Value is intended to be anticipatory in as much as the operating crew may not have necessary indication and control of equipment needed to respond to the loss.

105 VDC bus voltage is based on the minimum bus voltage necessary for the operation of safety related equipment. This voltage value incorporates a margin of at least 15 minutes of operation before the onset of inability to operate those loads.

K-100 Rev. 48 ¶CU8 Initiating Condition Inadvertent Criticality.

Operating Mode Applicability:

Cold Shutdown (Mode 5)

Refueling (Mode 6)

Threshold Values:

(1) 1. An UNPLANNED sustained positive startup rate observed on nuclear instrumentation.

Basis: UNPLANNED: a parameter change or an event that is not the result of an intended evolution and requires corrective or mitigative actions.

This IC addresses criticality events that occur in Cold Shutdown or Refueling modes such as fuel mis-loading events and inadvertent dilution events. This IC indicates a potential degradation of the level of safety of the plant, warranting a NOUE classification.

The term "sustained" is used in order to allow exclusion of expected short term positive startup rates from planned fuel bundle or control rod movements during core alterations. These short term positive startup rates are the result of the rise in neutron population due to subcritical multiplication.
