Attachment 1 to PNP 2017-034 Palisades Nuclear Plant Description and Evaluation of the Proposed Changes (35 Pages)

ATTACHMENT 1 DESCRIPTION AND EVALUATION OF THE PROPOSED CHANGES 1.0

SUMMARY

DESCRIPTION Pursuant to Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations, Part 50, Section 90 (10 CFR 50.90),

Entergy Nuclear Operations, Inc. (ENO) requests U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) review and approval of a revision to the Palisades Nuclear Plant (PNP) Site Emergency Plan (SEP).

The proposed changes would revise the current PNP SEP and the on-shift and augmented Emergency Response Organization (ERO) staffing to support the pending permanent cessation of power operations at PNP, as certified in Reference 1, and the planned permanent removal of fuel from the PNP reactor vessel. The proposed reduction from current operating on-shift and augmented ERO staffing levels is commensurate with the need to safely store spent fuel at the facility in a manner that is protective of public health and safety.

ENO has reviewed the proposed changes against the planning standards in 10 CFR 50.47(b) and the requirements in 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix E, Emergency Planning and Preparedness for Production and Utilization Facilities, and concluded that the standards and requirements would continue to be met. Therefore, no exemption from 10 CFR 50.47 or 10 CFR 50, Appendix E, is requested.

ATTACHMENT 1 DESCRIPTION AND EVALUATION OF THE PROPOSED CHANGES 2.0 DETAILED DESCRIPTION The proposed changes would revise the current PNP SEP and the on-shift staffing and augmented ERO staffing to reflect the pending permanent cessation of power operations (Reference 1) and the planned permanent removal of fuel from the PNP reactor vessel. Specifically, the proposed changes would eliminate the on-shift positions not needed for the safe storage of spent fuel in the spent fuel pool (SFP) during the initial decommissioning period and eliminate the augmented staffing positions not necessary to effectively respond to credible accidents when in a permanently shut down and defueled condition. provides a tabular summary of the proposed changes to the PNP SEP. Attachment 3 provides the revised PNP SEP with the proposed changes shown in markup format. Attachment 4 provides a clean version of the revised PNP SEP. Any additional changes beyond those involving a reduction in staffing in Attachments 2, 3, and 4 are included for informational purposes only and will be dispositioned prior to implementation in accordance with the requirements in 10 CFR 50.54(q), Emergency plans, subparagraph (3), related to emergency preparedness, and specifically to making changes to emergency response plans.

Currently, PNP SEP Figure 5-2, Plant Staffing and Augmentation Requirements, specifies the on-shift and augmented staffing for certain positions in the following Major Functional Areas:

Plant Operations and Assessment of Operational Aspects Emergency Direction Notification and Communication Radiological Accident Assessment and Support of Operational Accident Assessment Radiation Protection Plant System Engineering, Repair and Corrective Actions Field Monitoring Teams Fire Fighting Rescue Operations and First-Aid Site Access Control and Personnel The proposed post-shutdown on-shift and augmented ERO staff will continue to address the Major Functional Areas.

On-Shift Staffing The proposed changes to the PNP SEP will eliminate the following on-shift positions:

One (1) Control Room Supervisor One (1) Shift Engineer/Shift Technical Advisor Two (2) Licensed Nuclear Control Operators Four (4) Non-Licensed Nuclear Plant Operators One (1) Communicator One (1) Radiation Protection Technician One (1) Chemistry Technician The proposed post-shutdown Operations on-shift staff will continue to address the Major Functional Areas and will consist of:

One (1) Shift Manager (qualified as a Certified Fuel Handler (CFH))

Page 2 of 35

ATTACHMENT 1 DESCRIPTION AND EVALUATION OF THE PROPOSED CHANGES Two (2) Non-Certified Operators One (1) Radiation Protection Technician These staffing levels have been considered in the PNP analysis of proposed post-shutdown on-shift staffing in conjunction with the postulated accidents that will be applicable in the permanently shut down and defueled condition. The analysis is provided in Attachment 5 of this submittal.

Use of the title Non-Certified Operator is dependent upon NRC approval of proposed changes to the PNP Renewed Facility Operating License (Reference 2) that revise the minimum shift staffing requirements in the PNP Renewed Facility Operating License by replacing references to licensed and non-licensed operators with references to CFHs and Non-Certified Operators. However, implementation of the changes to the PNP SEP proposed in this submittal is not dependent upon prior NRC approval of the proposed changes to the PNP Renewed Facility Operating License.

An individual qualified as a CFH will supervise fuel handling operations while in the permanently shut down and defueled condition. Shift Managers will be qualified as CFHs. The Shift Manager requires additional qualification beyond the CFH training. Command and Control will remain with the Shift Manager, regardless of location of the individual designated as the Shift Manager.

Non-Certified Operators will perform duties typically associated with those formerly performed by Non-Licensed Nuclear Plant Operators, such as manipulation and monitoring of plant equipment.

Non-Certified Operators will also be assigned to monitor indications and communications in the Control Room. Reference 3 submitted a CFH training program for NRC approval. Reference 13 provided the NRC approval of Reference 3. Dedicated Licensed Nuclear Control Operators will not be utilized while in the permanently shut down and defueled condition.

The Non-Certified Operator position will include the post-shutdown duties of the current Non-Licensed Nuclear Plant Operator. The specific training requirements of the Non-Certified Operator position will be developed by the PNP Training Department and will be reviewed and approved by Operations management. The training program will be designed with an emphasis on systems and processes important to maintaining SFP cooling, and monitoring and controlling SFP parameters, such as SFP water level and temperature. Consequently, the Non-Certified Operators will be trained on pertinent Control Room indications and controls that will be monitored and operated to maintain SFP cooling and SFP water level, in addition to monitoring plant radiological conditions.

The Non-Certified Operator training program will include training on applicable aspects of the PNP SEP-related Non-Certified Operator duties. Non-Certified Operators will be trained and qualified consistent with 10 CFR 50.120, Training and qualification of nuclear power plant personnel, in accordance with ENO training procedures.

Personnel assigned to fill the Non-Certified Operator positions during the post-shutdown period will include both previously licensed and non-licensed operators. Much of the required training for the Non-Certified Operator position will already have been completed by the formerly licensed operators, because they have previously been trained and qualified as Nuclear Control Operators to support power operations. The current Non-Licensed Nuclear Plant Operators have been trained and qualified as non-licensed operators only. Therefore, it is expected that the individuals assigned to fill the Non-Certified Operator positions will require additional training related to Control Room operations.

Once the specific training requirements for the Non-Certified Operator position have been identified, a gap analysis will be completed for all operators identified to fill the Non-Certified Operator position. Individualized training plans will be developed and completed to address Page 3 of 35

ATTACHMENT 1 DESCRIPTION AND EVALUATION OF THE PROPOSED CHANGES specific knowledge and skill areas for the selected Non-Certified Operator candidates. This will include training the currently qualified Non-Licensed Nuclear Plant Operators on Control Room indications, controls, and procedures. The initial training for any new Non-Certified Operators will include all training requirements for the Non-Certified Operator position to ensure the personnel are equipped with the required skills and knowledge to perform their required job functions.

The proposed changes to the on-shift organization are identified in the proposed changes to the PNP SEP Figure 5-2, included in Attachments 3 and 4, and are summarized in Attachment 2.

Augmented Emergency Response Organization Staffing The proposed changes to the PNP SEP would eliminate augmented ERO positions currently identified in the PNP SEP, Figure 5-2 and Emergency Plan Implementing Procedures (EPIPs) describing the activation and operation of the Technical Support Center (TSC), Emergency Operations Facility (EOF), Operations Support Center (OSC), and Joint Information Center (JIC).

Specific augmented ERO positions proposed for elimination are identified in Table 1 of this attachment.

Currently, PNP SEP, Figure 5-2 specifies the on-shift and augmented staffing for certain positions in the Major Functional Areas identified above. The proposed changes to the PNP SEP would eliminate the following augmented positions identified in Figure 5-2:

State/County Communicator Chemistry Technician Four (4) Radiation Protection (RP) Technicians Core/Thermal Hydraulic Engineer Electrical Engineer Mechanical Engineer OSC Craft (one Electrical Maintenance Technician and one Instrument and Control (I&C)

Technician)

Radwaste Operator After permanent cessation of power operations and certification of permanent removal of fuel from the reactor vessel, in accordance with 10 CFR 50.82(a)(1)(i) and (ii), and pursuant to 10 CFR 50.82(a)(2), the 10 CFR Part 50 license will no longer authorize reactor operation or emplacement or retention of fuel in the reactor vessel. Thus, the need for augmenting engineers is reduced.

The Engineering Coordinator in the TSC, tasked with performing engineering assessments of plant conditions and actions needed to mitigate damage to the plant, will provide the Major Task of Technical Support in the Major Functional Area of Plant System Engineering, Repair, and Corrective Actions in Figure 5-2. With respect to responding to engineering requests from the Engineering Coordinator, this function will continue to be performed by augmenting qualified engineering resources. The Engineering Coordinator will continue to continuously evaluate the need for engineering resources and coordinate with the EOF Technical Advisor to call in qualified engineering personnel. These individuals may be tasked with activities to be completed at engineering offices external to the TSC, called to report to the TSC, or directed to other facilities.

The OSC Craft (Electrical and Mechanical) functions will continue to be performed by augmenting resources. PNP will maintain trained and qualified I&C personnel to respond to an emergency.

These resources are discussed in more detail in Section 3.2.2.2.

Page 4 of 35

ATTACHMENT 1 DESCRIPTION AND EVALUATION OF THE PROPOSED CHANGES 2.1. Reason for the Proposed Changes The proposed changes reflect the pending permanent cessation of power operations, which is anticipated to occur on October 1, 2018 (Reference 1), and the planned permanent defueling of the PNP reactor. After the reactor is permanently shut down, all fuel assemblies will be removed from the reactor vessel and placed in the SFP. The irradiated fuel will be stored in the SFP and in the Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation (ISFSI) until it is removed by the Department of Energy (DOE). Upon docketing of the certifications for permanent cessation of power operations (10 CFR 50.82(a)(1)(i)) and permanent removal of fuel from the reactor vessel (10 CFR 50.82(a)(1)(ii)), pursuant to 10 CFR 50.82(a)(2), the 10 CFR Part 50 license will no longer authorize operation of the reactor or emplacement or retention of fuel into the reactor vessel.

The proposed revisions to the PNP SEP are commensurate with the reduction in hazards associated with the permanently shut down and defueled condition, and will allow PNP to transition from an appropriate staffing level required for an operating facility to staffing levels required for a permanently shut down and defueled facility. The proposed changes are required to properly reflect the conditions of the facility while continuing to maintain the effectiveness of the PNP SEP and preserve the PNP Decommissioning Trust Fund.

2.2. Background The on-site emergency plan standards in 10 CFR 50.47(b)(2) state, in part, that on-shift facility licensee responsibilities for emergency response are unambiguously defined, adequate staffing to provide initial facility accident response in key functional areas is maintained at all times, [and]

timely augmentation of response capabilities is available.

NUREG-0654, Criteria for Preparation and Evaluation of Radiological Emergency Response Plans and Preparedness in Support of Nuclear Power Plants, (Reference 4),Section II.B, Onsite Emergency Organization, presents guidance for meeting the planning standards and requirements of 10 CFR 50.47(b) and 10 CFR 50, Appendix E, Section IV.A. The guidance describes the onsite emergency organization, including the staffing requirements found in Table B-1, Minimum Staffing Requirements for NRC Licensees for Nuclear Power Plant Emergencies. This table specifies a minimum of ten on-shift responders in four Major Functional Areas. It also specifies seven on-shift response functions where the duties may be performed by shift personnel who are assigned other functions (i.e., there are no dedicated responders to perform these functions). Table B-1 specifies two Major Functional Areas (i.e., firefighting and site access control/personnel accountability) which must be staffed on a site-specific basis.

The on-shift staff must be able to cope with a spectrum of events until augmenting personnel arrive in accordance with the sites emergency plan commitments. The augmenting responders assume managerial, engineering, and administrative duties from the on-shift personnel, allowing on-shift personnel to focus on their assigned functions.

On November 23, 2011, the NRC published a final rule in the Federal Register amending certain emergency preparedness requirements in its regulations that govern domestic licensing of production and utilization facilities (Reference 5). This final rule amended 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix E, Section IV.A, Organization, to address the assignment of tasks or responsibilities to on-shift ERO personnel that could potentially overburden them and prevent the timely performance of their emergency plan functions. Specifically,Section IV.A.9 states that licensees shall perform a detailed analysis demonstrating that on-shift personnel assigned emergency plan implementation functions are not assigned responsibilities that would prevent the timely performance of their assigned functions as specified in the emergency plan.

Page 5 of 35

ATTACHMENT 1 DESCRIPTION AND EVALUATION OF THE PROPOSED CHANGES Coincident with the rule change in 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix E, Section IV.A.9, the NRC issued NSIR/DPR-ISG-01, Interim Staff Guidance - Emergency Planning for Nuclear Power Plants (ISG-

01) (Reference 6). This Interim Staff Guidance (ISG) provides information relevant to performing the on-shift staffing analysis. The ISG states that the NEI developed NEI 10-05, Assessment of On-Shift Emergency Response Organization Staffing and Capabilities, (Reference 7) to establish a standard methodology for a licensee to perform the required staffing analysis, and that the NRC reviewed NEI 10-05 and found it to be an acceptable methodology for this purpose. The ISG also indicates that the completed staffing analyses are required to be part of the emergency plan and the results documented and submitted to the NRC in accordance with 10 CFR 50.54(q)(5) for review.

2.3 PNP Specific Background On-Shift Staffing In August 2015, PNP updated its On-Shift Staffing Analysis in accordance with the NEI 10-05 guidance to satisfy the requirements of 10 CFR 50, Appendix E Section IV.A.9. This analysis examined the capability of the minimum on-shift staff provided in Figure 5-2 of the PNP SEP to perform the key emergency response actions for events described in NSIR/DPR-ISG-01 until augmenting staff arrive. The analysis was conducted by a cross disciplinary team of corporate Emergency Preparedness personnel and station personnel from the Operations, Training, Radiation Protection, Chemistry, Engineering, Regulatory Assurance, and Emergency Planning departments. Additionally, members of the Security staff provided input to the analysis.

The emergency response to each of the events described in NSIR/DPR-ISG-01 was determined by conducting a tabletop of the event using the emergency plan and procedures and the applicable departmental procedures such as emergency and abnormal operating procedures.

Each scenario was reviewed by the cross disciplinary team to determine the required plant actions and emergency plan implementation actions based on plant procedures prior to staff augmentation. These actions were then compared to the minimum on-shift staffing for emergency response implementation as described in Figure 5-2 of the PNP SEP, ensuring that no actions were assigned to staff members that conflicted with either their dedicated emergency response role or their dedicated operational role, as appropriate. In cases where multiple tasks were assigned to an individual, the team evaluated the timing of the tasks to ensure that they could be performed by the individual in series within any specified time requirements. The Design Basis Accident (DBA) scenarios considered in the analysis were the Design Basis Threat (DBT), control rod ejection accident, small line break outside containment, loss of coolant accident (LOCA), fuel handling accident (FHA), main steam line break inside containment (MSLB) accident, waste tank rupture, aircraft probable threat, Control Room fire requiring evacuation and remote shutdown, station blackout, and steam generator tube rupture (SGTR) with concurrent loss of off-site power.

The analysis concluded that an on-shift staff of fifteen (15) is required to respond to the most limiting accident scenario reviewed, which was determined to be the aircraft probable threat.

PNP SEP Figure 5-2 specifies the minimum staffing requirements for the PNP on-shift staff, defines the positions initially responsible for satisfying key ERO functions, and specifies positions that will augment the on-shift staff.

Page 6 of 35

ATTACHMENT 1 DESCRIPTION AND EVALUATION OF THE PROPOSED CHANGES Augmented Emergency Response Organization Staffing The PNP SEP defines four classes of emergency events: Notification of Unusual Event (UE), Alert, Site Area Emergency (SAE) and General Emergency (GE). Because on-shift personnel can normally address an emergency response to UEs without additional support, staff augmentation may not be activated for an UE declaration. The Operations Shift Manager maintains command and control responsibility during UEs, unless the EOF has been activated. An Alert declaration results in the activation of the EOF, TSC, OSC, and discretionary activation of the JIC. All Emergency Response Facilities (ERFs) are activated at a SAE or GE declaration. Overall responsibility for the event is assumed by the Emergency Director in the EOF when the EOF is declared operational. When the ERO is activated, notification is sent to those required to respond to their assigned ERF.

PNP SEP, Section 5.0, Organizational Control of Emergencies, describes how the normal plant operating organization transitions into an ERO to effectively deal with any incident at PNP.

The PNP onsite emergency organization is described in Section 5.3, Palisades Emergency Response Organization, and the operating and engineering organization is described in Section 5.2 of the PNP SEP. If initiating conditions exist that result in the declaration of an emergency, the Shift Manager assumes the role of Emergency Director and is responsible for emergency direction and coordination. The normal operating organization assumes their pre-assigned emergency response roles. This is considered to be a short-term response organization that will be augmented within one hour after call-out by additional plant personnel.

If an Alert, SAE, or GE is declared, or if the minimum shift crew requires assistance during an UE, the onsite emergency organization will be augmented by additional plant personnel as described in Section 5.3 of the PNP SEP, Palisades Emergency Response Organization. The PNP SEP describes the augmented emergency organization that will staff and operate the EOF, TSC, OSC, and JIC within one hour of the request for activation.

Plans and procedures have been put into place to ensure the timely activation of emergency response facilities. PNP SEP Figure 5-1 identifies the interfaces among the various emergency organizations.

3.0 TECHNICAL EVALUATION

3.1 Accident Analysis Chapter 14 of the PNP Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR) describes safety analyses for postulated DBAs under which the PNP is licensed. Upon docketing of the certifications required by 10 CFR 50.82(a)(1)(i) and (ii), the 10 CFR Part 50 license for PNP will no longer authorize operation of the reactor or emplacement or retention of fuel into the reactor vessel, as specified in 10 CFR 50.82(a)(2). Therefore, most of the accident scenarios postulated in the FSAR will no longer be applicable once PNP is in the permanently shut down and defueled condition.

The postulated DBAs that will remain applicable to PNP in its permanently shut down and defueled condition are the Cask Drop in the SFP (FSAR Section 14.11) and a FHA in the SFP area (FSAR Section 14.19). FSAR Section 14 will be revised to eliminate the DBAs that will not be applicable in the permanently shut down and defueled condition.

Page 7 of 35

ATTACHMENT 1 DESCRIPTION AND EVALUATION OF THE PROPOSED CHANGES It was determined that no emergency declaration would be expected for the FSAR Section 14.11 event. Therefore, the FSAR Section 14.11 event was not considered in the analysis of proposed post-shutdown on-shift staffing. Additionally, the Station Blackout (SBO) event was not considered in the analysis of proposed post-shutdown on-shift staffing. Once the certifications required by 10 CFR 50.82(a)(1)(i) and (ii) are docketed, PNP will no longer be licensed to operate and 10 CFR 50.63 (the SBO rule) will no longer be applicable pursuant to 10 CFR 50.63(a)(1).

An evaluation was performed to determine if sufficient on-shift staffing would be available to implement emergency response actions in response to potential aircraft impacts in accordance with 10 CFR 50.54(hh)(1). In the permanently shut down and defueled condition, the Fire Brigade will relocate away from target areas and prepare for reentry. The task of maintaining communications during this event are transferred to the Non-Certified Operator trained and qualified to perform this function. Therefore, sufficient staffing is available to promptly implement response actions required under 10 CFR 50.54(hh)(1) without impacting the performance of designated emergency plan functions.

In the permanently shut down and defueled condition, the PNP Fire Brigade will be responsible for implementing the SFP inventory makeup strategies required under 10 CFR 50.54(hh)(2). PNP will continue to maintain a trained and qualified Fire Brigade responsible for implementation of the SFP inventory makeup strategies. The Fire Brigade personnel identified in the PNP Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan (PSEP) are separate and distinct from those responsible for implementing the major elements of the emergency plan including command and control, emergency classification, offsite notifications, and dose assessment/protective action recommendation development.

Therefore, sufficient staffing is available to promptly implement SFP inventory makeup strategies required under 10 CFR 50.54(hh)(2) without impacting the performance of designated emergency plan functions.

As described in Section 3.2.2.2, events involving a loss of SFP cooling and/or water inventory can be addressed by implementation of SFP inventory makeup strategies required under 10 CFR 50.54(hh)(2). These strategies will continue to be maintained to satisfy applicable portions of Condition 2.C.(6).b of the PNP Renewed Facility Operating License.

3.2 Analysis of Proposed Changes 3.2.1 On-Shift Staffing To support reduced staffing following permanent cessation of power operations and permanent removal of fuel from the reactor vessel, the proposed post-shutdown on-shift staffing was evaluated in conjunction with the postulated accidents that could occur in the permanently shut down and defueled condition (Attachment 5). The analysis of proposed post-shutdown on-shift staffing considered the cask drop in the SFP (FSAR Section 14.11) and the FHA as the applicable DBAs. The analysis of proposed post-shutdown on-shift staffing concluded that in a permanently shut down and defueled condition one on-shift Shift Manager, two Non-Certified Operators, and one Radiation Protection Technician can perform all required Emergency Plan actions in a timely manner and there are no collateral duties that would prevent the timely performance of emergency plan functions. The Fire Brigade complement considered in the analysis of proposed post-shutdown on-shift staffing was consistent with the requirements from the Fire Hazard Analysis.

Accident Scenarios For the analysis of proposed post-shutdown on-shift staffing, the following accident scenarios were considered:

Page 8 of 35

ATTACHMENT 1 DESCRIPTION AND EVALUATION OF THE PROPOSED CHANGES Design Basis Threat The event evaluated for this analysis assumes a land based threat that is neutralized immediately when inside the protected area fence, no significant damage to equipment or systems that require corrective actions before the augmented ERO is staffed, no radiological release, and no fire that requires firefighting response before the augmented ERO is staffed.

Fuel Handling Accident The DBA FHA is assumed to occur as a consequence of a failure of the fuel assembly lifting mechanism, resulting in the dropping of a raised fuel assembly onto stored fuel bundles. The FHA is assumed to occur in containment two days after shutdown. An Alert emergency declaration was assumed to be declared due to the event.

Aircraft Probable Threat (50.54(hh))

Notification is received from the NRC that a probable aircraft threat exists (>5 minutes, <30 minutes).

Control Room Fire Requiring Evacuation and Maintain SFP Cooling A fire occurs in the Control Room requiring the evacuation and actions implemented to control spent fuel pool cooling from a remote location.

General Emergency (GE) with radioactive release and PAR (assumed for analysis purposes)

This event is based on the same initial conditions as the FHA, but assumes a dose that exceeds the Environmental Protection Agencys (EPA) Protective Action Guides (PAGs) beyond the site boundary, and thus necessitates promulgation of a PAR.

In addition to the events described above, a Cask Drop in the SFP (FSAR Section 14.11) analyzed dropped cask events and determined that no emergency declaration would be expected for this event.

The analysis of proposed post-shutdown on-shift staffing indicates that the proposed on-shift personnel can satisfactorily implement all emergency plan functions as required by regulation without augmented personnel for at least 90 minutes following an emergency declaration. The analysis confirmed that no chemistry job tasks were noted as being required within the first 90 minutes of any of the analyzed events. The 90-minute capability exceeds the PNP SEP requirements that augmented staff respond in 60 minutes. ENO is not requesting an extension to the current 60-minute augmentation capability.

The proposed on-shift staffing changes do not impact the capabilities of the on-shift staff to respond to an emergency and continues to comply with the PNP SEP, site commitments, and applicable regulations.

Additional analysis for each of the proposed on-shift staffing changes associated with PNP SEP Figure 5-2 is provided for each major functional area in Sections 3.2.1.1 through 3.2.1.10.

Additionally, because Figure 5-2 of the PNP SEP includes 60-minute and 90-minute staff Page 9 of 35

ATTACHMENT 1 DESCRIPTION AND EVALUATION OF THE PROPOSED CHANGES augmentation capabilities, the proposed revisions to the ERO impacting each major functional area are also addressed in Sections 3.2.1.1 through 3.2.1.10.

3.2.1.1 Major Functional Area: Plant Operations and Assessment of Operational Aspects Current Staffing Requirement During normal operations, the minimum staff on duty at the plant during all shifts to satisfy this Major Functional Area consists of:

One (1) Control Room Supervisor One (1) Shift Engineer/Shift Technical Advisor One (1) Shift Manager Two (2) Licensed Nuclear Control Operators Six (6) Non-Licensed Nuclear Plant Operators Proposed Change The proposed changes to the PNP Emergency Plan will eliminate the following on-shift positions:

One (1) Control Room Supervisor One (1) Shift Engineer/Shift Technical Advisor Two (2) Licensed Nuclear Control Operators Four (4) Non-Licensed Nuclear Plant Operators Credited on-shift personnel will consist of one Shift Manager and two Non-Certified Operators. Use of the titles, CFH and Non-Certified Operator, are dependent upon NRC approval of proposed changes to the PNP Technical Specifications (Reference 2).

Implementation of the PNP PSEP, as proposed for revision in this submittal, is not dependent upon prior NRC approval of the proposed changes to the PNP Technical Specifications.

Analysis Because of the reduced number of possible events requiring mitigating actions in the permanently shut down and defueled condition and the limited number of actions to be performed by the Control Room positions in a permanently shut down and defueled condition, no Licensed Nuclear Control Operators or Shift Engineer/Shift Technical Advisor job tasks were noted as being required for any of the events analyzed in the analysis of proposed post-shutdown on-shift staffing. Therefore, the Licensed Nuclear Control Operator and Shift Engineer/Shift Technical Advisor positions can be eliminated without reducing the effectiveness of the PNP SEP.

The regulatory standard for minimum staffing requirements for NRC licensees is documented in NUREG-0654. The total minimum on-shift staffing expressed in NUREG-0654, Table B-1, is ten personnel. Plant Operations shift staffing, as implemented previously, was based on an operating philosophy that provided defense in depth. The analysis of proposed post-shutdown on-shift staffing concluded that in a permanently shut down and defueled condition, the on-shift Shift Manager and two Non-Certified Operators can perform all required PSEP actions in a timely manner and there are no collateral duties Page 10 of 35

ATTACHMENT 1 DESCRIPTION AND EVALUATION OF THE PROPOSED CHANGES that would prevent the timely performance of emergency plan functions. Therefore, this deviation from the guidance presented in NUREG-0654, Table B-1 is acceptable.

3.2.1.2 Major Functional Area: Emergency Director Current Staffing Requirement The minimum staff on duty at the plant during all shifts to satisfy this Major Functional Area consists of the Shift Manager.

Proposed Change No proposed changes in staffing.

Analysis PNP proposes no changes to the Emergency Director staffing.

3.2.1.3 Major Functional Area: Notification/Communication Major Tasks: Notify licensee, State, Local, and Federal personnel and maintain communications Current Staffing Requirement The Shift Manager and an on-shift Communicator perform the function of on-shift notification/communication.

Augmentation of the notification/communication capability is accomplished by the Offsite Communicator and the State/County Communicator in the EOF, and the ENS Communicator in the TSC within 60 minutes.

Proposed Change Replace the On-shift Communicator with a Non-Certified Operator.

Elimination of the augmenting EOF State/County Communicator position.

Analysis This function is currently performed by an on-shift staff position performing emergency plan Communicator requirements. This function is currently augmented by TSC and EOF designated communications positions when those facilities assume communications responsibilities.

Initial notification to offsite authorities are required to occur within 15 minutes of declaration of an emergency and initial NRC notification is required to occur immediately after notification of the appropriate State or County agencies and not later than 60 minutes after the time of the emergency declaration. Subsequent notifications are made, should the event escalate and to provide informational updates. The resource commitment to support the communication function is not full time so there is time to support performance of collateral duties during the first 60 minutes until staff augmentation can occur. The on-shift and offsite Page 11 of 35

ATTACHMENT 1 DESCRIPTION AND EVALUATION OF THE PROPOSED CHANGES communicators have advanced communications capabilities available as illustrated in PNP SEP Table 7-1, Palisades SEP Communications Matrix. Communications with the NRC take place over dedicated telephone lines provided for and maintained by the NRC (Emergency Notification System (ENS)). For purposes of the analysis of proposed post-shutdown on-shift staffing, NRC notifications were treated as a continuous action in accordance with 10 CFR 50.72(c)(3), meaning that once the initial NRC communications are established, it was assumed that the NRC will request an open line to be continuously maintained with the NRC Operations Center. The use of dedicated phone circuits and headsets enables these notifications to be performed by the same on-shift communicator who performs the State and County notifications.

The Shift Manager initially approves the content of the communication with the State and Federal agencies until relieved of this function by the EOF. The PNP SEP goal is to activate the EOF within approximately 60 minutes. The EOF assumes the communication responsibility concurrent with activation. Therefore, the current communication protocol may remain within the Control Room for the first 60 minutes, regardless of the presence of any prior ERO augmentation.

The elimination of the State/County Communicator position in the EOF does not impact the capabilities of the on-shift staffing or augmented response. The position can be eliminated without placing an undue burden on the remaining ERO positions in the EOF and without increasing the risk to public health and safety. Attachment 6 contains an analysis of all ERO positions proposed for elimination and evaluates the transfer of tasks currently assigned to the State/County Communicator following permanent cessation of power operations and permanent removal of fuel from the reactor vessel. The EOF will continue to be activated at an Alert or higher declaration. Functional responsibilities of the State/County Communicator position are either currently performed by other positions or will be reassigned to remaining positions. The proposed ERO staffing reductions continue to address the risks to public health and safety, comply with the PNP SEP, site commitments, and applicable regulations.

In the post-shutdown condition, the task of notifying and communicating with offsite authorities will be transferred to the Non-Certified Operators. This change is acceptable because the analysis of proposed post-shutdown on-shift staffing concluded that in a permanently shut down and defueled condition, the Non-Certified Operator can perform this required PNP SEP action in a timely manner and there are no collateral duties that would prevent the timely performance of this emergency plan function.

3.2.1.4 Major Functional Area: Radiological Accident Assessment and Support of Operational Accident Assessment Major Tasks: Emergency Operations Facility (EOF) Director, Offsite Dose Assessment, and Chemistry/Radiochemistry Current Staffing Requirement On-shift Senior Radiation Protection Expertise (provided by shift personnel assigned other functions)

On-shift Chemistry Technician Augmentation with the Senior Manager (EOF Director) within 60 minutes Page 12 of 35

ATTACHMENT 1 DESCRIPTION AND EVALUATION OF THE PROPOSED CHANGES Augmentation with Senior Radiation Protection expertise within 60 minutes (Radiological Assessment Coordinator in TSC or Radiological Assessment Coordinator in EOF)

Augmentation with one Chemistry Technician within 60 minutes Proposed Change Elimination of the on-shift Chemistry Technician.

Elimination of the augmenting Chemistry Technician.

Analysis The elimination of the on-shift and augmenting Chemistry Technician positions does not impact the ability of the on-shift or augmented ERO to perform dose assessment. The analysis of proposed post-shutdown on-shift staffing concluded that in a permanently shut down and defueled condition, the on-shift Shift Manager and two Non-Certified Operators can perform all required PNP SEP actions in a timely manner and there are no collateral duties that would prevent the timely performance of emergency plan functions. Control Room personnel can perform initial dose assessment using existing EPIPs.

Currently, the Chemistry Technician is an on-shift position per PNP SEP Figure 5-2 so that a technician is always available to immediately collect and analyze a liquid sample if the applicable radiation monitor is not available during a release, or as directed by the Shift Manager. When the on-shift Chemistry Technician position is eliminated, the on-shift Radiation Protection Technician will be able to perform sampling and analysis, so as not to delay information potentially needed by the Shift Manager to determine if an emergency declaration is required. A gap analysis will be performed to determine any differences between current Radiation Protection Technician training requirements and any new specific knowledge requirements associated with emergency plan sampling and analysis.

Such specific knowledge requirements would include how to obtain specific liquid samples.

For gaseous releases, the only credible scenario for releasing gas would be to mechanically damage spent fuel during handling or by impact of a heavy object. Activities that could cause mechanical damage will require that a Chemistry Technician be on-site or the radiation monitor listed in gaseous effluent Emergency Action Levels (EALs) is in service, thereby alleviating any reliance on a potentially delayed sample analysis to determine EAL applicability. A new regulatory commitment to revise applicable fuel handling procedures to incorporate this prerequisite is included in Attachment 7.

Once the specific training requirements for the Radiation Protection Technician position have been identified using a systems approach to training, as required by 10 CFR 50.120, a formal gap analysis will be completed for all personnel identified to fill the Radiation Protection Technician position. Individualized training plans will be developed and completed to address specific knowledge and skills areas for each of the selected Radiation Protection Technician candidates. The initial training for all incumbent Radiation Protection Technicians will include all training requirements to perform liquid sampling and analysis to support an emergency declaration.

The initial training requirements for any new Radiation Protection Technician will include all training modules to ensure they are equipped with the required skills and knowledge to perform the required liquid sampling and analysis. These training modules will be specifically identified in the training program description for the Radiation Protection Page 13 of 35

ATTACHMENT 1 DESCRIPTION AND EVALUATION OF THE PROPOSED CHANGES Technician position. This document will be developed in accordance with the requirements of 10 CFR 50.120.

Based on the above, the proposed change in on-shift operations staffing and elimination of the on-shift Chemistry Technician are appropriate given the cessation of power operations and permanent removal of fuel from the reactor vessel.

3.2.1.5 Major Functional Area: Radiation Protection Major Tasks: Radiation Protection Tasks: a. Offsite Surveys, b. Onsite (Out-of-Plant)

Surveys, c. In-Plant Surveys, d. Access Control, e. RP Coverage, f. Personnel Monitoring,

g. Dosimetry Current Staffing Requirement Two on-shift Radiation Protection Technicians.

Augmentation by three Radiation Protection Technicians within 60 minutes.

Augmentation by an additional three Radiation Protection Technicians within 90 minutes.

Proposed Change Eliminate one on-shift Radiation Protection Technician position.

Eliminate one 60-minute augmenting Radiation Protection Technician position.

Eliminate three 90-minute augmenting Radiation Protection Technician position.

Analysis The function of these resources is to provide radiation protection oversight of the on-shift complement of personnel and augmented personnel who are expected to respond to emergency events for damage repair, corrective actions, search and rescue, first aid, firefighting and personnel monitoring. They can also be expected to provide for access control and the issuance of dosimetry.

PNP will no longer be an operating nuclear power plant. In accordance with 10 CFR 50.82(a)(1), pursuant to 10 CFR 50.82(a)(2), the Part 50 license will no longer authorize operation of the reactor or emplacement or retention of fuel in the reactor vessel. With irradiated fuel being stored in the SFP and ISFSI, the spectrum of credible accidents and operational events, and the quantity and complexity of activities required for the safe storage of spent nuclear fuel is reduced as compared to an operating plant. The risk in the permanently shut down and defueled condition is significantly reduced because many of the potential initiating conditions that would lead to an emergency declaration will no longer be possible and the elimination of credible accidents involving an operating reactor provides additional time to plan and execute assessment and mitigation actions. If additional resources are determined to be necessary during an emergency, PNP maintains the necessary staffing to provide sufficient personnel trained in radiation protection to respond and perform the required actions, if necessary, in the post-shutdown condition.

Page 14 of 35

ATTACHMENT 1 DESCRIPTION AND EVALUATION OF THE PROPOSED CHANGES During a declared emergency, RWPs and dose setpoints will change depending on the emergency situation and plant conditions. Both systems have been used by plant workers for several years. Worker dose margins and training qualifications are also automatically verified when the RWP access control system is used. If a worker's dose margin is inadequate or training is expired, the workers access would be precluded and the access control system would not allow issuance of an electronic dosimeter. In an emergency situation, approval to exceed dose margins is required. During the log-in process, workers acknowledge their electronic dosimeter alarm setpoints and that they have read and understand their radiation work permit. The electronic dosimeter provides the worker with a continuous status of dose received and work area dose rates, and will alarm at preset dose and dose rate alarms. Worker use of electronic dosimeters facilitates more efficient use of Radiation Protection (RP) Technicians to provide RP coverage while preserving the ALARA concept. Access control is maintained because the worker must obtain an electronic dosimeter and enter a radiation work permit number into the access control computer system prior to being allowed access into the Radiologically Controlled Area (RCA). No setup is required for the radiation work permit access control computers, which allows RP Technicians to be used for more critical tasks during emergency response. Personnel are required to self-monitor for radioactive contamination whenever they exit the RCA. No RP involvement is necessary for this contamination monitoring activity because workers are trained to perform this task without supervision or oversight. However, contaminated personnel exiting the RCA will require RP oversight.

The analysis of proposed post-shutdown staffing concluded that in a permanently shut down and defueled condition, Non-Certified Operators can perform this required action in a timely manner and there are no collateral duties that would prevent the timely performance of this task.

RP coverage will only be performed if the radiological status of a room is unknown and there is a definitive need for emergency workers to enter the room to perform a task. The decision to provide RP coverage may be based on plant radiological conditions as indicated by installed area radiation monitors (ARMs).

During the initial stages of an accident, not all areas of the plant would be affected by releases of radioactive materials. Therefore, RP coverage would not be required for all areas. Because entry is expected to be limited to those areas where maintenance necessary to maintain SFP cooling is required and the areas potentially affected by an accident involving the SFP are limited, there is a significant decrease in areas potentially requiring RP coverage in a permanently shut down and defueled condition. If RP coverage is deemed necessary, multiple emergency teams can be covered by the on-shift RP Technician. If RP coverage is not provided (for entry into areas with low radiological risk or known radiological status), worker protection is ensured because emergency workers are required to wear electronic dosimeters (which will alarm at preset dose and dose rate setpoints) and because of the installed ARMs (which alarm locally and remotely at preset dose rates) located throughout the plant.

Tasks requiring the issuance of dosimetry are not expected in the initial stages of an event, but during the recovery phase. Prior to self-issuance of dosimetry, workers are assigned a RWP, setpoints are adjusted, and briefings are conducted by RP.

The analysis of proposed post-shutdown on-shift staffing determined there are no time critical RP or chemistry tasks, and that task performance is directed and prioritized by the Shift Manager for the 90-minute time frame used in the analysis. There are no overlapping Page 15 of 35

ATTACHMENT 1 DESCRIPTION AND EVALUATION OF THE PROPOSED CHANGES RP or chemistry tasks. RP tasks were able to be performed without augmented personnel in the 90-minute time frame used in the analysis.

Activities related to the conduct of surveys or radiological assessment of the area surrounding PNP are performed by the Field Team Technicians identified in the Field Monitoring Team (FMT) Major Functional Area of Figure 5-2 of the PNP SEP, independent of the augmenting RP Technician positions.

PNP proposes reducing the number of augmenting RP Technicians listed in the Major Functional Area of Radiation Protection in Figure 5-2 of the PNP SEP from six to two. As previously described, the spectrum of credible accidents and operational events, and the quantity and complexity of activities required for the safe storage of spent nuclear fuel is reduced as compared to an operating plant. The risk in the permanently shut down and defueled condition is significantly reduced because many of the potential initiating conditions that would lead to an emergency declaration will no longer be possible and the elimination of credible accidents involving an operating reactor provides additional time to plan and execute assessment and mitigation actions.

3.2.1.6 Major Functional Area: Plant System Engineering, Repair and Corrective Actions Major Tasks: Technical Support, Repair, and Corrective Actions Current Staffing Requirement The on-shift Shift Engineer/Shift Technical Advisor performs the major task of Technical Support.

Augment the on-shift core/thermal hydraulics capability by one within 60 minutes (TSC Reactor Engineer).

Augment the Shift Engineer/Shift Technical Advisor with the Mechanical Engineer and Electrical Engineer within 60 minutes.

OSC staff (Mechanical Maintenance, Radwaste Operator, Electrical Maintenance, I&C Technicians) augmentation within 60 minutes to perform repair and corrective actions.

Proposed Change Eliminate the on-shift Shift Engineer/Shift Technical Advisor position.

Eliminate the TSC Reactor Engineer ERO position.

Replace the Mechanical Engineer and Electrical Engineer ERO positions with the Engineering Coordinator ERO position (augmenting within 60 minutes).

Eliminate the Radwaste Operator, one Electrical Technician, and the I&C Technician from Repair and Corrective Action staffing (augmenting within 60 minutes).

Analysis The Shift Engineer/Shift Technical Advisor performs independent assessments of plant operating concerns, technical support, appropriate corrective actions, analysis of events Page 16 of 35

ATTACHMENT 1 DESCRIPTION AND EVALUATION OF THE PROPOSED CHANGES and their effects, effectiveness of response(s) to emergent conditions, classifications of emergencies, protection of the public, and any other actions related to critical safety functions and plant safety during abnormal and emergency situations. The Shift Engineer/Shift Technical Advisor also contributes to operations during normal plant conditions. By routine monitoring of equipment and plant operations, the Shift Engineer/Shift Technical Advisor can focus on preventative actions to mitigate the consequences of an accident.

Because of the permanent cessation of power operations and permanent removal of fuel from the reactor vessel, the Shift Engineer/Shift Technical Advisor position is no longer necessary for technical and analytical assistance. The Technical Support function will be assumed by the remaining Control Room personnel.

The analysis of proposed post-shutdown on-shift staffing concluded that the on-shift Shift Manager and two Non-Certified Operators can perform any required technical analysis, until augmented by the TSC, in a timely manner and there are no collateral duties that would prevent the timely performance of this task.

The function of the TSC Reactor Engineer is to provide confirmation of adequacy of core cooling, maintenance of coolable core geometry, and to verify that actual plant response to the event is as expected. This function is initially performed by the on-shift Shift Engineer/Shift Technical Advisor under the guidance of the Shift Manager. The TSC Reactor Engineer position can be eliminated without increasing the risk to public health and safety because the major task of evaluating core/thermal hydraulics is not necessary in a permanently shut down and defueled condition.

The primary duties of the TSC Engineer positions include: responding to engineering requests from the Engineering Coordinator, evaluating the implementation of Severe Accident Management Guidelines, and assisting the OSC in preparing to send repair teams into the plant. These duties are either no longer necessary in a permanently shut down and defueled condition or will be performed by other members of the post-shutdown ERO.

The Engineering Coordinator is tasked with performing an engineering assessment of plant conditions and/or actions needed to mitigate damage to the plant. With respect to responding to engineering requests from the Engineering Coordinator, this function will continue to be performed by augmenting qualified engineering resources. The Engineering Coordinator will continuously evaluate the need for engineering resources and coordinate with the EOF Technical Advisor to call in additional qualified engineering personnel. These individuals may be tasked with activities to be completed at engineering offices external to the TSC, called to report to the TSC, or directed to other facilities.

Engineering resources will continue to be available as augmented positions with specific training and qualification requirements for assigned personnel in accordance with the site training program. The required training courses and requalification frequencies will be unchanged in the post-shutdown condition. However, these positions will no longer be identified as on-call positions. The elimination of the TSC Engineer positions is justified because the spectrum of credible accidents and operational events, and the quantity and complexity of activities required for the safe storage of spent nuclear fuel is reduced as compared to an operating plant. The set of plant equipment required in the permanently shut down and defueled condition is also greatly reduced, which reduces the assessment and mitigation activities the TSC must perform.

Page 17 of 35

ATTACHMENT 1 DESCRIPTION AND EVALUATION OF THE PROPOSED CHANGES The Radwaste Operator position is no longer required in the post shutdown and permanently shut down and defueled condition. Electrical Maintenance Technician duties include providing repairs and corrective actions for plant electrical equipment, as directed.

I&C Technician duties include providing repairs and corrective actions to plant instrumentation, as directed. The OSC Manager will continuously evaluate the need for resources and coordinate with the EOF Technical Advisor to call in additional qualified personnel. OSC resources will continue to be augmented positions with specific training and qualification requirements for assigned personnel in accordance with the site training program. The required training courses and requalification frequencies will be unchanged in the post-shutdown condition. The elimination of the OSC craft positions described above is justified because the spectrum of credible accidents and operational events, and the quantity and complexity of activities required for the safe storage of spent nuclear fuel is reduced as compared to an operating plant. The set of plant equipment required in the permanently shut down and defueled condition is also greatly reduced, which reduces the assessment and mitigation activities the OSC must perform. Additionally, the elimination of credible accidents involving an operating reactor provides additional time to plan and execute assessment and mitigation actions.

3.2.1.7 Major Functional Area: Field Monitoring Teams (FMTs)

Major Tasks: Onsite FMT, Offsite FMT, and Transportation Current Staffing Requirement Augmentation by two Radiation Protection Technicians within 60 minutes and one additional Radiation Protection Technician within 90 minutes.

Augmentation of two drivers - one within 60 minutes and one within 90 minutes.

Proposed Change No proposed changes in staffing.

Analysis PNP proposes no changes to the FMT staffing.

3.2.1.8 Major Functional Area: Fire Fighting Current Staffing Requirement The Fire Brigade complement currently consists of five (5) responders, one of which acts as the Plant Fire Brigade Leader.

Proposed Change No proposed changes in staffing. The Fire Brigade complement will continue to consist of a minimum of five (5) responders, including a Fire Brigade Leader and a minimum of four (4) trained and qualified Fire Brigade Members in compliance with the PNP fire protection program.

Page 18 of 35

ATTACHMENT 1 DESCRIPTION AND EVALUATION OF THE PROPOSED CHANGES Analysis The Fire Brigade will continue to be staffed in accordance with Technical Specifications. All Fire Brigade training and qualification requirements will be maintained using the Fire Hazards Analysis requirements. The Fire Brigade will continue to perform the task of firefighting in the permanently shut down and defueled condition. The Fire Brigade will be available to promptly implement SFP inventory makeup strategies required under 10 CFR 50.54(hh)(2) without impacting the performance of designated emergency plan functions.

3.2.1.9 Major Functional Area: Rescue Operations and First Aid Current Staffing Requirement The minimum staff on duty at the plant during all shifts to satisfy this Major Functional Area consists of two (2) on-shift personnel assigned other functions.

Proposed Change No proposed changes in staffing.

Analysis PNP proposes no staffing changes to the Rescue Operations and First Aid staffing Major Functional Area.

3.2.1.10 Major Functional Area: Site Access Control and Personnel Major Tasks: Security, fire fighting, communications, personnel accountability Current Staffing Requirement Staffing in accordance with the Security Plan Proposed Change No proposed changes in staffing.

Analysis PNP proposes no staffing changes to the Site Access Control and Personnel Major Functional Area.

3.2.2 Augmented ERO Staffing Prior to an emergency declaration, the normal plant operating organization is in place. The initial classification of an off-normal event and declaration are performed by the Shift Manager. Upon classification and declaration of an emergency, the Shift Manager assumes the role of Emergency Director and retains that role until another designated Emergency Director can assume control.

The onsite emergency organization is activated by personnel notification or when the station alarm is sounded and the emergency is announced over the public address system. Initially, the ERO consists of the normal operating shift personnel who function as the emergency team members.

Page 19 of 35

ATTACHMENT 1 DESCRIPTION AND EVALUATION OF THE PROPOSED CHANGES The normal operating staff is augmented by qualified plant personnel. Those personnel onsite respond when the station alarm is sounded and the announcement is made or when individuals are notified by another means. Personnel not onsite during off-hours operations will be notified via an ERO notification system. A designated on-shift plant employee completes the notifications.

In the permanently shut down and defueled condition, PNP will continue to maintain ERO teams to respond to an emergency declaration. When the Shift Manager directs the activation of the ERO call out system, ERO members are notified to ensure adequate coverage of ERO positions at each ERF. ERO members not on-call are expected to respond unless they are unavailable.

PNP requires ERO personnel to act promptly in reporting to their assigned ERF even when not on duty. During duty periods, procedures further require that team members respond within the required response time for their ERF (unless a longer time frame is specified for their specific ERO position) and that they remain fit for duty throughout the duty assignment. Individuals are trained to respond to their ERF even if they are not on duty. Excess personnel that respond may be assigned support responsibilities or be designated as a relief shift. This conservative policy ensures timely activation because some off-duty personnel may respond sooner than the on-duty personnel.

The proposed revisions to the PNP SEP will not change the requirements described above.

Managements continued expectation is that duty and support ERO members report to their respective ERF as quickly as possible. ERO personnel are expected to respond when notified by the ERO notification system. Current augmented ERO positions are identified, and the associated duties are captured, in the ERO Task Analysis provided in Attachment 6. Each of the positions proposed for elimination were analyzed to identify the key duties associated with the position and the duties were then evaluated against the planning standards in NUREG-0654.

During the development of the proposed changes to the augmented ERO staffing, documented in , PNP initiated a multi-disciplined team review of each aspect of the augmented ERO staffing changes. This team included participants from Operations, Training, Engineering, Chemistry, Radiation Protection, and Emergency Planning. Each proposed change in task alignment was vetted by this group.

The Table provided in Attachment 6 contains columns with headings "Implementing Actions" and "Task Assigned To?". These columns provide the details regarding the disposition of each task.

Some of the duties are identified as being eliminated because they become unnecessary following permanent cessation of power operations and permanent removal of fuel from the reactor vessel.

Other duties are identified as eliminated because the duties are performed redundantly by other positions in the ERO and will continue to be performed by these positions in the post-shutdown ERO.

Procedures and training materials depicting the changes presented in Attachment 6 will be developed to align with the revised task assignments. These procedures will be used to support training of post-shutdown ERO staff and the conduct of drills that will be used to validate the staffing and assignment of tasks.

The proposed changes to the PNP SEP, including the changes made to develop the post-shutdown ERO, have been evaluated for impacts on the ERO and for the ability of offsite response organizations (OROs) to implement their U.S. Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA)-

approved Radiological Emergency Preparedness (REP) Plans. Potential impacts on the ability of State and County response organizations to effectively implement their FEMA-approved REPs do Page 20 of 35

ATTACHMENT 1 DESCRIPTION AND EVALUATION OF THE PROPOSED CHANGES not exist because no tasks that require interfacing with State and County response organizations are proposed for elimination. PNP has appropriately addressed elimination of augmented ERO positions that interface with offsite representatives by transferring the necessary tasks to remaining post-shutdown augmented ERO positions. In addition, the PNP ERO includes technical support staff that have dedicated responsibilities for interfacing with State and County representatives.

During an emergency, these personnel are dispatched to the State and County EOCs to act as communication and technical liaisons between the EOCs and plant technical staff to provide clarification of emergency response information. These positions will remain as part of the PNP ERO in the post-shutdown period. See Attachment 8 for correspondence from the State and Local agencies.

To validate the results of the proposed changes to the augmented ERO described within, and the analysis presented in Attachment 6, one or more drills will be developed and conducted prior to implementation of the changes described within this LAR. The drills will be conducted to confirm the ability of the post-shutdown augmented ERO to perform the necessary functions of each ERF and will utilize the post-shutdown procedures that will be developed depicting the revised assignment of duties. The drills will be used to train and qualify post-shutdown augmented ERO members, evaluate and validate the ability to accomplish the stated mission of each ERF, and ensure that the planning standard functions are preserved with no degradation in time-sensitive activities or in the ability to communicate with OROs. The drills will also validate that the post-shutdown augmented ERO continues to address the risks to public health and safety and comply with the PNP SEP, site commitments, and applicable regulations. Implementing procedures will be revised to address the permanently shut down and defueled conditions. The revised procedures will be used to support training of augmented ERO staff and the conduct of the drills described above.

Training and draft procedures will be developed and in place prior to performing post-shutdown ERO validation drills. The drill scenarios will include SFP events and will be designed to test the major elements of the PNP Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan (PSEP). Major elements to be tested will include communications and coordination with OROs, including the JIC. State, County, and Federal response organizations will be provided the opportunity to participate in or observe the drills, as applicable. New regulatory commitments for scenario elements and communication with offsite agencies are included in Attachment 7.

PNP has not yet finalized a schedule of drills that will be conducted. When the dates are finalized, the NRC Project Manager will be notified and provided with a schedule. PNP will provide the schedule to the NRC with appropriate advanced notice, thereby allowing the NRC and FEMA an opportunity to observe each drill. A new regulatory commitment to provide the schedule to the NRC Project Manager is included in Attachment 7.

A dash (--) Indicates the position is proposed for elimination upon implementation of the Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan.

2 Detailed information regarding the proposed elimination of each position is provide in Section 3.2.2.1 through 3.2.2.4 and Attachment 6.

The intent of Table 1 is to compare the current augmented ERO positions against the proposed post-shutdown augmented ERO positions. As an example, the TSC Reactor Engineer is a position that is proposed for elimination in the post-shutdown ERO, because in a permanently shut down and defueled condition the responsibilities associated with a reactor core no longer need to be maintained. The proposed elimination of augmented ERO positions are described in greater detail in the following sections. Those augmented ERO positions identified in procedures as typical minimum staffing positions to declare the ERFs operational are described in greater detail. Other augmented ERO positions proposed for elimination, but not identified in procedure as typical minimum staffing positions to declare the ERFs operational, are also addressed in the following sections.

Additional analysis for each of the augmented ERO staffing changes that impact the content of PNP SEP Figure 5-2 was previously addressed by Major Functional Area in Sections 3.2.1.1 through 3.2.1.10. contains an analysis of all augmented ERO positions proposed for elimination and evaluates the transfer of tasks to remaining augmented ERO positions following permanent cessation of power operations and permanent removal of fuel from the reactor vessel.

Page 23 of 35

ATTACHMENT 1 DESCRIPTION AND EVALUATION OF THE PROPOSED CHANGES 3.2.2.1 Technical Support Center The TSC has been designed to meet the intent of the guidance in NUREG-0696, Functional Criteria for Emergency Response Facilities, and the clarification in NUREG-0737, Supplement 1, Clarification of TMI Action Plan Requirements, as applicable. Following permanent cessation of power operations and permanent removal of fuel from the reactor vessel, the TSC will continue to be located in the area immediately adjacent to the Control Room. The changes proposed to the PNP SEP do not involve any physical modifications to, or layout/configuration changes in, the TSC.

The current PNP SEP is intended to address the risks to public health and safety inherent with an operating reactor. The risk in the permanently shut down and defueled condition is significantly reduced because many of the potential initiating conditions that would lead to an emergency declaration will no longer be possible.

The spectrum of credible accidents and operational events, and the quantity and complexity of activities required for the safe storage of spent nuclear fuel is reduced as compared to an operating plant. The set of plant equipment required in the permanently shut down and defueled condition is also greatly reduced, which reduces the assessment and mitigation activities the TSC must perform. Therefore, the TSC Manager, Operations Coordinator, TSC Reactor Engineer, TSC Engineers, TSC Communicator, Radiological Assessment Coordinator, Maintenance Coordinator, TSC Admin Support, and TSC Log Keeper positions can be eliminated without placing an undue burden on the remaining ERO positions in the TSC and without increasing the risk to public health and safety. Attachment 6 contains an analysis of all augmented ERO positions being eliminated and evaluates the transfer of tasks to remaining augmented ERO positions following permanent cessation of power operations. The proposed augmented ERO staffing reductions continue to address the risks to public health and safety, comply with the PNP SEP, site commitments, and applicable regulations.

The proposed staffing changes eliminate the following ERO positions in the TSC described in procedure as typical minimum staffing that could be considered necessary to declare the TSC operational: the Reactor Engineer (Technical Support - Core/Thermal Hydraulics), TSC Engineers (Electrical, I&C, and Mechanical), and the Radiological Assessment Coordinator.

TSC Reactor Engineer The primary duties of the TSC Reactor Engineer include: monitoring plant conditions for any indication of core damage, assisting in clarifying core parameter information to the Engineering Team, and assisting in the implementation of Severe Accident Management Guidelines. In a permanently shut down and defueled condition, responsibilities associated with a reactor core no longer need to be maintained. Elimination of the TSC Reactor Engineer position will have no effect on emergency response in a permanently shut down and defueled condition because the position is not required to assess the condition of fuel in the SFP during an emergency. The TSC Reactor Engineer position can be eliminated without increasing the risk to public health and safety because the major task of evaluating core/thermal hydraulics is not necessary or possible in a permanently shut down and defueled condition.

TSC Engineers (Electrical, I&C, and Mechanical)

The primary duties of the TSC Engineer positions include responding to engineering requests from the Engineering Coordinator, evaluating the implementation of Severe Accident Management Guidelines, and assisting the OSC in preparing to send repair teams into the plant. These duties are either no longer necessary in a permanently shut down and defueled condition or will be performed by the Engineering Coordinator. The Engineering Coordinator is tasked with performing Page 24 of 35

ATTACHMENT 1 DESCRIPTION AND EVALUATION OF THE PROPOSED CHANGES an engineering assessment of plant conditions and/or actions needed to mitigate damage to the plant.

With respect to responding to engineering requests from the Engineering Coordinator, this function will continue to be performed by augmenting qualified engineering resources. The Engineering Coordinator will continuously evaluate the need for engineering resources and coordinate with the EOF Technical Advisor to call in qualified engineering personnel. These individuals may be tasked with activities to be completed at engineering offices external to the TSC, called to report to the TSC, or directed to other facilities.

Engineering resources will continue to be available as augmenting positions with specific training and qualification requirements for assigned personnel in accordance with the site training program.

The required training courses and requalification frequencies will be unchanged in the permanently shut down and defueled condition. However, these positions will no longer be identified as on-call positions. The elimination of the TSC Engineer positions is justified because the spectrum of credible accidents and operational events, and the quantity and complexity of activities required for the safe storage of spent nuclear fuel is reduced as compared to an operating plant. The set of plant equipment required in the permanently shut down and defueled condition is also greatly reduced, which reduces the assessment and mitigation activities the TSC must perform. contains an analysis of the TSC Engineer positions and evaluates the transfer of tasks to remaining ERO positions following permanent cessation of power operations and permanent removal of fuel from the reactor vessel.

Radiological Assessment Coordinator The primary duties of the Radiological Assessment Coordinator is to coordinate Radiation Protection activities, including onsite radiological assessment, personnel exposure control and radiation protection programs. The Radiological Assessment Coordinator functions overlap with those of the Rad/Chem Coordinator in the OSC (position maintained in the post-shutdown ERO).

In an operating plant, the number and type of Radiation Protection activities supports this redundancy and overlap in function. In the permanently shut down and defueled condition, the spectrum of credible accidents and operational events, and the quantity and complexity of activities required for the safe storage of spent nuclear fuel is reduced as compared to an operating plant and redundant functions is no longer necessary to ensure performance. The Radiological Assessment Coordinator position can be eliminated without increasing the risk to public health and safety because the major task of coordinating Radiation Protection activities is provided by the Rad/Chem Coordinator in the OSC.

In addition to the positions described above, the following TSC positions are also proposed for elimination following permanent cessation of power operations and permanent removal of fuel from the reactor vessel:

TSC Manager Operations Coordinator TSC Maintenance Coordinator TSC Communicator TSC Admin Support TSC Log Keeper The TSC Manager is currently responsible for ensuring the TSC is activated in accordance with applicable procedures and ensuring notification of the ERO has been made. This position also advises the Emergency Plant Manager on proposed corrective actions and emergency Page 25 of 35

ATTACHMENT 1 DESCRIPTION AND EVALUATION OF THE PROPOSED CHANGES classification from a technical standpoint (i.e., plant system damage, core damage, etc.).

Functional responsibilities of the TSC Manager position that remain applicable in a permanently shut down and defueled condition will be reassigned to remaining positions in the TSC.

The primary duties of the Operations Coordinator are to monitor plant data communications between the Control Room and other ERFs, inform the TSC of the overall plant condition and significant changes to system and equipment status, provide technical assistance to the Shift Manager, monitor fission product barrier and plant status, and coordinate TSC efforts in support of Control Room actions. These duties are either no longer necessary in a permanently shut down and defueled condition, or they will be performed by other members of the post shutdown ERO, including the Emergency Plant Manager and the Engineering Coordinator.

The primary duties of the TSC Maintenance Coordinator are to communicate requests for repair and corrective action teams to the OSC, and assist the OSC in prioritizing the requests. These duties are either no longer necessary in a permanently shut down and defueled condition, or they will be performed by other members of the post shutdown ERO.

The elimination of the TSC Admin Support, TSC Communicator, and TSC Log Keeper positions does not impact the capabilities of the on-shift staffing or augmented response. The TSC will continue to be activated at an Alert or higher declaration. Functional responsibilities of the positions eliminated as a result of the changes will be reassigned to remaining positions, as necessary. The proposed augmented ERO staffing reductions continue to address the risks to public health and safety, comply with the PNP Emergency Plan, site commitments, and applicable regulations.

3.2.2.2 Operations Support Center The OSC has been designed to meet the intent of the guidance in NUREG-0696, Functional Criteria for Emergency Response Facilities, and the clarification in NUREG-0737, Supplement 1, Clarification of TMI Action Plan Requirements, as applicable. Following permanent cessation of power operations and permanent removal of fuel from the reactor vessel, the OSC will continue to be located near the mens locker room in the Service Building. The proposed changes to the PNP SEP do not involve any physical modifications to, or layout/configuration changes in, the OSC.

The OSC Manager is responsible for ensuring adequate staffing of the OSC to support the emergency; working with the Emergency Plant Manager to set priorities for the OSC; and directing the activities of the OSC to support the emergency response. If at any time the OSC Manager determines additional manpower is necessary to accomplish the mission of the OSC, the OSC Manager will contact the EOF Technical Advisor to arrange for augmentation by additional personnel to support the emergency response functions of the OSC.

In the permanently shut down and defueled condition, the primary functions of the OSC will remain dispatching of, and accounting for, Repair and Corrective Action Teams and dispatching of Onsite and Offsite Monitoring Teams. The OSC Craft functions will continue to be performed by augmenting qualified resources. The OSC Manager will continue to continuously evaluate the need for resources and coordinate with the EOF Technical Advisor to call in additional assistance.

OSC resources will continue to be augmented positions with specific training and qualification requirements for assigned personnel in accordance with the site training program. The required training courses and requalification frequencies will be unchanged in the post-shutdown condition.

The proposed staffing changes do not eliminate any ERO positions in the OSC described in procedure as typical minimum staffing that could be considered necessary to declare the OSC Page 26 of 35

ATTACHMENT 1 DESCRIPTION AND EVALUATION OF THE PROPOSED CHANGES operational. The following OSC positions are proposed for elimination following permanent cessation of power operations and permanent removal of fuel from the reactor vessel:

OSC Operations Support Work Control Coordinator Mechanical and I&C/Electrical Coordinators OSC Log Keeper OSC Radio Communicator OSC Admin Support Additionally, the proposed staffing changes eliminate the augmenting Radwaste Operator, one augmenting electrical technician, and the augmenting I&C Technician. These positions are included in PNP SEP Figure 5-2 as 60-minute augmenting responders. Electrical Maintenance Technician duties include providing repairs and corrective actions for plant electrical equipment, as directed. I&C Technician duties include providing repairs and corrective actions to plant instrumentation, as directed. The spectrum of credible accidents and operational events, and the quantity and complexity of activities required for the safe storage of spent nuclear fuel is reduced as compared to an operating plant. Therefore, the duties and coverage required for these positions are reduced.

The proposed augmented ERO staffing continues to address the risks to public health and safety, comply with the PNP Emergency Plan, site commitments, and applicable regulations.

In the permanently shut down and defueled condition, the spectrum of credible accidents and operational events, and the quantity and complexity of activities required for the safe storage of spent nuclear fuel is reduced as compared to an operating plant. The primary events of concern in the immediate post-shutdown and defueled condition will be a dropped cask in the SFP, a FHA, and a loss of SFP cooling and/or water inventory. Events involving a loss of SFP cooling and/or water inventory can be addressed by implementation of SFP inventory makeup strategies required under 10 CFR 50.54(hh)(2). These strategies will continue to be maintained as a license condition.

OSC staff is not relied upon to implement SFP inventory makeup.

Restoration of equipment supporting SFP cooling and inventory will be the primary focus of emergency mitigation actions for the TSC and OSC in a permanently shut down and defueled condition. Although ERO activation/response time requirements will be unchanged, the elimination of credible accidents involving an operating reactor provides additional time to plan and execute assessment and mitigation actions. The proposed changes do not impact the capability to assess and monitor actual or potential offsite consequences of a radiological emergency or provide information to offsite authorities in a timely manner. Therefore, the OSC Operations Support, Work Control Coordinator, Mechanical and I&C/Electrical Coordinators, OSC Log Keeper, OSC Radio Communicator, and OSC Admin Support positions can be eliminated without placing an undue burden on the remaining ERO positions in the OSC and without increasing the risk to public health and safety.

3.2.2.3 Emergency Operations Facility The EOF functions to maintain overall management of Entergys emergency response and recovery resources; evaluate, coordinate, and communicate emergency response activities with Federal, State, and County emergency response organizations; evaluate offsite accident conditions; and make recommendations to offsite agencies regarding protective actions. Federal, State, and County representatives are provided space and communications at the EOF and staff this facility at an Alert or higher classification.

Page 27 of 35

ATTACHMENT 1 DESCRIPTION AND EVALUATION OF THE PROPOSED CHANGES The EOF has been designed to meet the intent of the guidance in NUREG-0696, Functional Criteria for Emergency Response Facilities, and the clarification in NUREG-0737, Supplement 1, Clarification of TMI Action Plan Requirements, as applicable. Following permanent cessation of power operations, the EOF will continue to be located in downtown Benton Harbor, approximately 16 miles south southwest from the plant site. The proposed changes to the PNP SEP do not involve any physical modifications to, or layout/configuration changes in, the EOF.

The EOF maintains extensive communications capability with all ERFs and direct links are established between the EOF, the State and County Emergency Operations Centers (EOCs), and the JIC to provide up-to-date emergency status reports. The proposed changes to the PNP SEP do not involve changes to the ability of offsite authorities to report to the EOF or the JIC, and as a result, do not impact the ability of the offsite authorities to mobilize to, or operate from, the EOF and JIC.

When activated, the Emergency Director reports to the EOF and directs the activities of the augmented ERO throughout the emergency and until the recovery activities have been terminated.

The Emergency Director, or a designated alternate, issues periodic status reports of the event to offsite representatives located in the EOF. The Radiological Assessment Coordinator and Technical Advisor will provide and interpret plant information to the offsite representatives in the EOF. Additionally, technical support staff are dispatched to the State and County EOCs when requested and appropriate, or generally, during an Alert or higher declaration to act as a liaison with the plant technical staff so the magnitude of the emergency can be more clearly conveyed to the EOCs staff. The proposed changes do not reduce the ability of PNP to provide the necessary information regarding the status and progression of an event or in the frequency at which event information updates are provided. Nor do the changes impact the ability to dispatch additional technical support to the EOCs. As a result, the proposed changes do not impact the ability of PNP to communicate with the OROs.

Centralized coordination of the offsite radiological assessment effort with all organizations interested in, and/or performing, assessments is necessary to ensure that the data and its interpretation are reviewed by PNP and OROs with monitoring and assessment responsibilities.

The number and type of organizations performing this effort vary with time and following emergency declarations and offsite notification. Initially, plant emergency response personnel are the only organization performing this function and they are directed from, and their results evaluated, at the EOF. State and Federal response agencies would augment plant assessment efforts. The proposed changes to the PNP SEP do not impact the ability of OROs to monitor and assess a potential release and effectively implement their emergency plans.

PNP will continue to maintain the capability to display plant and meteorological data in the EOF, maintain offsite monitoring equipment at the EOF and maintain the current dose assessment capabilities at the EOF. Additionally, PNP will maintain a goal of sixty (60) minutes after declaration of an emergency to activate the EOF.

The proposed staffing changes do not eliminate any ERO positions in the EOF described in procedure as typical minimum staffing that could be considered necessary to declare the EOF operational. The following EOF positions are proposed for elimination following permanent cessation of power operations and permanent removal of fuel from the reactor vessel:

EOF Manager EOF Log Keeper Page 28 of 35

ATTACHMENT 1 DESCRIPTION AND EVALUATION OF THE PROPOSED CHANGES Lead Offsite Liaison Administration and Logistics Coordinator IT Specialist EOF Communicator State/County Communicator Security Coordinator Security Staff EOF Admin Support The proposed elimination of the EOF staffing listed above does not impact the capabilities of the on-shift staffing or augmented response. The positions can be eliminated without placing an undue burden on the remaining ERO positions in the EOF and without increasing the risk to public health and safety. The EOF will continue to be activated at an Alert or higher declaration. Functional responsibilities of the positions proposed for elimination will be reassigned to remaining positions.

The proposed augmented ERO staffing continue to address the risks to public health and safety, comply with the PNP SEP, site commitments, and applicable regulations. The proposed changes to the ERO staffing in the EOF do not impact the ability of the State and County response organizations to effectively implement their FEMA-approved REP Plans. Additional discussion of the potential impact on OROs is included in Section 3.2.3.

3.2.2.4 Joint Information Center The PNP JIC is co-located with the EOF in Benton Harbor. The JIC provides a location for the news media to receive information from all involved agencies and companies during an emergency and provide it to the public. The JIC is equipped to accommodate the news media for large briefings and conferences and contains extensive communications systems. Media monitoring and rumor control are also accomplished at the JIC, allowing Entergy and State representatives to address incorrect information or rumors. Responses to media telephone inquiries are also addressed at the JIC.

The JIC meets the intent of the guidance in Planning Standard G of NUREG-0654. Following permanent cessation of operations and permanent removal of fuel from the reactor vessel, the JIC will continue to be located in Benton Harbor. The proposed changes to the PNP SEP do not involve any physical modifications to, or layout/configuration changes in, the JIC.

The following JIC positions are proposed for elimination following permanent cessation of power operations and permanent removal of fuel from the reactor vessel:

JIC Manager Technical Advisor JIC Logistics Coordinator Information Coordinator JIC Log Keeper JIC Technical Assistant Press Release Writer Inquiry Response Coordinator JIC Admin Support In the permanently shut down and defueled condition, media briefings and rumor control will continue to be conducted regularly during an emergency to provide accurate and timely information to the public. The proposed JIC staffing changes described above do not impact the capabilities of Page 29 of 35

ATTACHMENT 1 DESCRIPTION AND EVALUATION OF THE PROPOSED CHANGES the on-shift staffing or augmented response. The positions can be eliminated without placing an undue burden on the remaining ERO positions in the JIC and without increasing the risk to public health and safety. Functional responsibilities of the positions proposed for elimination will be reassigned to remaining positions. The proposed augmented ERO staffing reductions continue to address the risks to public health and safety, comply with the PNP SEP, site commitments, and applicable regulations.

3.2.3 Impact on Off-Site Response Organizations Because of the location of PNP, the planning and responsibilities at the State and County level involve coordination with the State of Michigan, Berrien County, Allegan County, and Van Buren County. Table 7-1 of the PNP SEP describes the extensive communications network maintained between PNP, Federal, State, and County agencies as a means of promptly notifying and maintaining communications with appropriate authorities. The coordination effort with offsite authorities is initiated by notifying the State of Michigan and Van Buren County and providing them with key information regarding an emergency. The proposed changes to the PNP SEP do not involve changes to this communications network, and as a result, do not impact the ability of PNP to promptly notify and initiate coordination with the offsite authorities.

Formal offsite REP plans, approved by the FEMA in accordance with 44 CFR 350, are required to be maintained in effect until the NRC approves an exemption from formal offsite emergency preparedness requirements. Because the changes proposed by ENO, specifically in regards to ERO staffing of the EOF and JIC, have the potential to adversely impact the effective implementation of the State and County REP plans, the proposed changes to the PNP SEP were evaluated for impacts on the ability of the State and County response organizations to effectively implement their FEMA-approved REP Plans. This evaluation included a review of the State of Michigan Radiological Emergency Response Plan, the Berrien County Radiological Emergency Response Plan, the Allegan County Radiological Emergency Response Plan, and the Van Buren County Emergency Preparedness Plan. The review of the State and County REPs did not identify any specific references to PNP ERO positions proposed for elimination. Therefore, the conclusion was made that the proposed changes have no effect on the State or counties ability to implement their FEMA-approved REP plans. On June 6, 2017, a meeting with these various Federal, State, and local agencies was conducted to discuss the proposed changes. Feedback from the State and local agencies is provided in Attachment 8.

PNP technical support staff is dispatched to the State and County EOCs when requested and appropriate, or generally, during a SAE or GE to act as a liaison with the plant technical staff to clearly convey the magnitude of the emergency to the EOCs staff. These positions are retained in the Post-Shutdown ERO. The proposed changes do not reduce the ability of PNP to provide the necessary information regarding the status and progression of an event or in the frequency at which event information updates are provided. Nor do the changes impact the ability to dispatch additional technical support to the EOCs. As a result, the proposed changes do not impact the ability of PNP to communicate with the OROs or the ability of the State and County response organizations to effectively implement their FEMA-approved REP Plans.

3.3 Summary ENO performed an analysis to evaluate the ability of the proposed post-shutdown on-shift staffing to implement all regulatory required emergency plan functions in conjunction with the postulated accidents that will be applicable in the permanently shut down and defueled condition. Additionally, an analysis of all augmented ERO positions was performed to analyze the transfer of tasks from Page 30 of 35

ATTACHMENT 1 DESCRIPTION AND EVALUATION OF THE PROPOSED CHANGES those positions proposed for elimination to remaining augmented ERO positions following permanent cessation of power operations and permanent removal of fuel from the reactor.

The proposed augmented ERO staffing changes do not impact the capabilities of the on-shift staffing or augmented response. The ERFs will continue to be activated within approximately 60 minutes of an Alert or higher declaration. The remaining post-shutdown functional responsibilities of the positions proposed for elimination are being reassigned to remaining positions. The proposed augmented ERO staffing reductions continue to address the risks to public health and safety and comply with the PNP SEP, site commitments, and applicable regulations.

4.0 REGULATORY EVALUATION

4.1 Applicable Regulatory Requirements/Criteria On-Shift and Augmented ERO Staffing The specific standards for establishing an onsite emergency organization to respond to emergency events appears in 10 CFR 50.47(b) and 10 CFR 50, Appendix E, Section IV.A. Specifically:

  • 10 CFR 50.47(b)(1): Primary responsibilities for emergency response by the nuclear facility licensee and by State and local organizations within the Emergency Planning Zones have been assigned, the emergency responsibilities of the various supporting organizations have been specifically established, and each principal response organization has staff to respond and to augment its initial response on a continuous basis.
  • 10 CFR 50.47(b)(2): On-shift facility licensee responsibilities for emergency response are unambiguously defined, adequate staffing to provide initial facility accident response in key functional areas is maintained at all times, timely augmentation of response capabilities is available and the interfaces among various onsite response activities and offsite support and response activities are specified.
  • 10 CFR 50, Appendix E Section IV.A.1: [E-Plans must contain] A description of the normal plant operating organization.
  • 10 CFR 50, Appendix E Section IV.A.2: [E-Plans must contain] A description of the onsite emergency response organization with a detailed discussion of:
  • Authorities, responsibilities, and duties of the individual(s) who will take charge during an emergency;
  • Plant staff emergency assignments;
  • Authorities, responsibilities, and duties on an onsite emergency coordinator who shall be in charge of the exchange of information with offsite authorities responsible for coordinating and implementing offsite emergency measures; NUREG-0654 (Reference 4),Section II.B, Onsite Emergency Organization, presents guidance for meeting these requirements. The guidance describes the onsite emergency organization, including the staffing requirements found in Table B-1, Minimum Staffing Requirements for NRC Licensees for Nuclear Power Plant Emergencies.

Page 31 of 35

ATTACHMENT 1 DESCRIPTION AND EVALUATION OF THE PROPOSED CHANGES 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix E, Section IV.A.9 states that licensees shall perform a detailed analysis demonstrating that on-shift personnel assigned emergency plan implementation functions are not assigned responsibilities that would prevent the timely performance of their assigned functions as specified in the emergency plan.

NSIR/DPR-ISG-01, Interim Staff Guidance - Emergency Planning for Nuclear Power Plants (Reference 6) provides information relevant to performing the on-shift staffing analysis. The ISG states that NEI 10-05, Assessment of On-Shift Emergency Response Organization Staffing and Capabilities, is an acceptable methodology for performing the staffing analysis. The ISG also indicates that the completed staffing analyses are required to be part of the emergency plan and the results documented and submitted to the NRC in accordance with 10 CFR 50.54(q)(5).

NRC Regulatory Guide 1.101, Emergency Response Planning and Preparedness for Nuclear Power Reactors, (Reference 8) Section C, states in part "The criteria and recommendations in Revision 1 of NUREG-0654/FEMA-REP-1, Criteria for Preparation and Evaluation of Radiological Emergency Response Plans and Preparedness in Support of Nuclear Power Plants (November 1980), are methods acceptable to the NRC staff for complying with the standards in 10 CFR 50.47 that must be met in onsite and offsite emergency response plans. These criteria provide a basis for NRC licensees and State and local governments to develop acceptable radiological emergency plans and improve emergency preparedness."

Regulatory Guide 1.219, Guidance on Making Changes to Emergency Plans for Nuclear Power Reactors, November 2011 (Reference 9), describes a method that the NRC considers to be acceptable to implement the requirements in 10 CFR 50.54(q). In Section 2.a.(1), the NRC encourages licensees to arrange a conference call with the NRC staff to clarify 10 CFR 50.54(q) requirements and guidance within this regulatory guide for EP changes that increase the activation time of emergency response facilities.

Regulatory Issue Summary 2005-02, "Clarifying the Process for Making Emergency Plan Changes," Revision 1 (Reference 10) was issued by the NRC to clarify the meaning of "decrease in effectiveness" and the process for making changes to emergency plans, and to provide some examples of changes that are considered to be a decrease in effectiveness.

4.2 Precedent The requested changes to the on-shift staffing and augmented ERO staffing are similar in nature to the post-shutdown changes approved by the NRC and implemented by Vermont Yankee Nuclear Power Station (Reference 11) and Ft. Calhoun Station (Reference 12).

4.3 No Significant Hazards Consideration Pursuant to 10 CFR 50.92, Entergy Nuclear Operations, Inc. (ENO) has reviewed the proposed changes and concludes that the changes do not involve a significant hazards consideration because the proposed changes satisfy the criteria in 10 CFR 50.92(c). These criteria require that operation of the facility in accordance with the proposed amendment would not (1) involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated; (2) create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated; or (3) involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety.

The proposed changes would revise the Palisades Nuclear Plant (PNP) Site Emergency Plan (SEP) to reduce the number of on-shift and augmented emergency response organization (ERO)

Page 32 of 35

ATTACHMENT 1 DESCRIPTION AND EVALUATION OF THE PROPOSED CHANGES positions commensurate with the hazards associated with a permanently shut down and defueled facility.

The discussion below addresses each of these criteria and demonstrates that the proposed amendment does not constitute a significant hazard.

1. Does the proposed amendment involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated?

Response: No.

The proposed changes to the PNP SEP do not impact the function of plant structures, systems, or components (SSCs). The proposed changes do not affect accident initiators or precursors, nor does it alter design assumptions. The proposed changes do not prevent the ability of the on-shift staff and augmented ERO to perform their intended functions to mitigate the consequences of any accident or event that will be credible in the permanently shut down and defueled condition. The proposed changes only remove positions that will no longer be credited in the PNP SEP.

Therefore, the proposed amendment does not involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated.

2. Does the proposed amendment create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated?

Response: No.

The proposed changes reduce the number of on-shift and augmented ERO positions commensurate with the hazards associated with a permanently shut down and defueled facility. The proposed changes do not involve installation of new equipment or modification of existing equipment, so that no new equipment failure modes are introduced. Also, the proposed changes do not result in a change to the way that the equipment or facility is operated so that no new accident initiators are created.

Therefore, the proposed amendment does not create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any previously evaluated.

3. Does the proposed amendment involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety?

Response: No.

Margin of safety is associated with confidence in the ability of the fission product barriers (i.e., fuel cladding, reactor coolant system pressure boundary, and containment structure) to limit the level of radiation dose to the public. The proposed changes are associated with the PNP SEP and do not impact operation of the plant or its response to transients or accidents. The change does not affect the Technical Specifications. The proposed changes do not involve a change in the method of plant operation, and no accident analyses will be affected by the proposed changes. Safety analysis acceptance criteria are not affected by the proposed changes. The revised PNP SEP will continue to provide the necessary response staff with the proposed changes.

Page 33 of 35

ATTACHMENT 1 DESCRIPTION AND EVALUATION OF THE PROPOSED CHANGES Therefore, the proposed amendment does not involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety.

4.4 Conclusion Based on the above, ENO concludes that the proposed amendment presents no significant hazards consideration under the standards set forth in 10 CFR 50.92(c), and, accordingly, a finding of no significant hazards consideration is justified.

5.0 ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATION

This amendment request meets the eligibility criteria for categorical exclusion from environmental review set forth in 10 CFR 51.22(c)(9) as follows:

(i) The amendment involves no significant hazards consideration.

As described in Section 4.3 of this evaluation, the proposed changes involve no significant hazards consideration.

(ii) There is no significant change in the types or significant increase in the amounts of any effluent that may be released offsite.

The proposed changes do not involve any physical alterations to the plant configuration or any changes to the operation of the facility that could lead to a change in the type or amount of effluent release offsite.

(iii) There is no significant increase in individual or cumulative occupational radiation exposure.

The proposed changes do not involve any physical alterations to the plant configuration or any changes to the operation of the facility that could lead to a significant increase in individual or cumulative occupational radiation exposure.

Based on the above, ENO concludes that the proposed change meets the eligibility criteria for categorical exclusion as set forth in 10 CFR 51.22(c)(9). Pursuant to 10 CFR 51.22(b), no environmental impact statement or environmental assessment need be prepared in connection with the issuance of this amendment.

User remains responsible for procedure adherence.

1.0 INTRODUCTION

The purpose of the Palisades Site Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan (PSEP) is to aid in protecting members of the general public, persons temporarily visiting the site, and site employees.

Information submitted in this plan was developed using the guidance provided in NUREG-0654, Revision 1, "Criteria for Preparation and Evaluation of Radiological Emergency Response Plans and Procedures in Support of Nuclear Power Plants,"

published in November 1980 and with Regulatory Guide 1.70, Revision 2, "Standard Format and Content of Safety Analysis Reports for Nuclear Power Plants," dated September 1975.

Detailed procedures concerning the implementation of the Site Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan are not included here, but are included in the Palisades Nuclear Plant Emergency Implementing Procedures and Entergy Fleet Emergency Preparedness Procedures. These procedures describe the duties and actions of individuals and groups in the event of an emergency and also serve as an interface of the Site Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan with Plant operations, security, and radiological controls procedures. Selected elements of the Quality Program are applied to the Site Post-Shutdown Emergency Planning Function for the Palisades Plant.

1.1 DEFINITIONS 1.1.1 Accident Any unexpected or unintentional event resulting in radiological exposure, contamination, or physical injury to individuals requiring offsite medical treatment, and/or physical damage to safety-related components.

1.1.2 Activation Actions taken to staff and setup an emergency response facility to make it operational. Actions include, but are not limited to, notification of emergency personnel, equipment setup, and equipment operability testing.

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT PSEP SITE POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 29TBD Page 7 of 105 TITLE: SITE POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN 1.1.3 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.

1.1.4 Alarm An indication of abnormal Plant conditions and/or equipment status.

1.1.5 Alert 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 security event that involves probable life threatening risk to site personnel or damage to site equipment because of HOSTILE ACTION. Any releases are expected to be limited to small fractions of the EPA Protective Action Guideline exposure levels.

1.1.6 Annunciation An alarm or indication of normal or abnormal conditions.

1.1.7 Assessment Actions Those actions taken during or after an accident to provide data to make decisions.

1.1.8 Command and Control Resides with the Shift Manager or EOF Emergency Director following assumption of overall authority for Entergy Corporation emergency response. At minimum, this individual will assume responsibility for event classification, dose assessment, protective action recommendations, and notification of offsite authorities.

1.1.9 Control Room The location at Palisades Plant from which the Reactor and its auxiliary systems are controlled. The assembly area for Control Room personnel.

1.1.10 Control Room Personnel The credited on shift complement consists of a Shift Manager (qualified as a Certified Fuel Handler (CFH)), and two (2) Non-Certified Operators.Nuclear Control

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT PSEP SITE POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 29TBD Page 8 of 105 TITLE: SITE POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Operators, Nuclear Plant Operators, Shift Engineer/Shift Technical Advisor, and Control Room Supervisor.

1.1.11 Corrective Actions Those emergency measures taken to lessen or terminate an emergency situation at, or near, the source of the problem.

1.1.12 Decontamination The removal of radioactive material from individuals, equipment, surfaces, foodstuffs, etc.

1.1.13 Emergency Any occurrence at the Palisades Nuclear Power Plant that may result in undue risk to the health and safety of the onsite personnel or the public.

1.1.14 Emergency Action Levels (EAL)

A predetermined, site-specific, observable threshold for a plant Initiating Condition that places the plant in a given emergency class. An EAL can be: an instrument reading; an equipment status indicator; a measurable parameter (onsite or offsite);

a discrete, observable event; results of analyses; entry into specific emergency operating procedures; or another phenomenon which, if it occurs, indicates entry into a particular emergency class.

There are times when an EAL will be a threshold point on a measurable continuous function, such as a primary system coolant leak that has exceeded technical specifications.

At other times, the EAL lists a discrete event that places the plant in a particular emergency class.

1.1.15 Emergency Operations Facility (EOF)

An offsite emergency center from which the offsite emergency support actions of Entergy Corporation are controlled and coordinated with state, local, and federal authorities to mitigate the consequences of an emergency.

1.1.16 Emergency Implementing Procedures Specific procedures providing specific actions to implement the Site Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan in order to mitigate or terminate an emergency situation.

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT PSEP SITE POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 29TBD Page 9 of 105 TITLE: SITE POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN 1.1.17 Emergency Planning Zones (EPZ)

Two zones that encircle the Palisades Plant. The primary EPZ plume exposure pathway, with a radius of 10 miles, has been established to prevent excessive airborne exposure, and the secondary EPZ, ingestion exposure pathway, with a radius of 50 miles, has been established to prevent excessive ingestion of contaminated food. Within these two zones, protective actions are described for the protection of the public.

1.1.18 Fitness For Duty Provide reasonable assurance that personnel who maintain unescorted access will perform their tasks in a reliable and trustworthy manner and are not under the influence of any substance, legal or illegal, or mentally or physically impaired from any cause, which in any way adversely affects their ability to safely and competently perform their duties.

1.1.19 Fully Operational Status of an Emergency Response Facility following assumption of all responsibilities.

1.1.20 General Emergency 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.

1.1.21 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. Nonterrorism-based EALs should be used to address such activities (eg, violent acts between individuals in the owner controlled area).

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT PSEP SITE POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 29TBD Page 10 of 105 TITLE: SITE POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN 1.1.22 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.

1.1.23 Ingestion Exposure Pathway The path affected by fallout from a radioactive plume. Of major concern is the contamination of food and water within the emergency planning zones.

1.1.24 Initiating Condition (IC): One of a predetermined subset of nuclear power plant conditions when either the potential exists for a radiological emergency, or such an emergency has occurred.

An IC is an emergency condition, which sets it apart from the broad class of conditions that may or may not have the potential to escalate into a radiological emergency.

It can be a continuous, measurable function that is outside technical specifications, such as elevated PCS temperature or falling reactor coolant level (a symptom).

1.1.25 Offsite All land and water areas outside the owner-controlled area.

1.1.26 Onsite All land and water areas within the owner-controlled area, use of which must be authorized by Entergy Corporation.

1.1.27 Operational Status of an emergency facility, declared by the appropriate facility manager upon determining that the facility is adequately staffed and equipment is setup and available to assume/perform the emergency functions assigned to that facility.

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT PSEP SITE POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 29TBD Page 11 of 105 TITLE: SITE POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN 1.1.28 Operations Support Center (OSC)

The onsite area in which onsite support personnel can assemble for subsequent assignment to duties in support of emergency operations. Support personnel assigned to the OSC normally consist of Chemistry, Radiation Protection, and repairpersons from I&C, Electrical, and Mechanical Maintenance.

1.1.29 Owner Controlled Area The area surrounding the Plant in which the reactor licensee has the authority to determine all activities including exclusion or removal of persons and property from the area during accident conditions.

1.1.30 Plume Exposure Pathway The path by which a radioactive cloud (plume) can expose the population-at-risk and/or onsite personnel to radiation. The principle exposure sources for this pathway are:

a. Whole body external exposure to gamma radiation from the radioactive plume and from deposited material.
b. Inhalation exposure from the passing radioactive plume.

1.1.31 Population at Risk Those persons for whom protective actions are or would be taken.

1.1.32 Protective Actions Those emergency measures taken for the purpose of preventing or minimizing radiological exposures to individuals that would be likely to occur if the actions were not taken.

1.1.33 Protective Action Guides (PAG)

Projected radiological dose or dose commitment values to individuals in the general population that warrant protective action following a release of radioactive material.

Protective actions would be warranted provided the reduction in individual dose expected to be achieved by carrying out the protective action is not offset by excessive risks to individual safety in taking the protective action.

2.0 SCOPE AND APPLICABILITY 2.1 GENERAL INFORMATION AND SITE DESCRIPTION The Palisades Nuclear Power Plant is owned by Entergy Corporation. An area map showing the location of the facility is provided in Figure 2-1.

The design of the Palisades Nuclear Plant is that of a pressurized water-type nuclear steam supply system supplied and manufactured by Combustion Engineering. The system uses chemical shim and control rods for reactivity control and U-tube steam generators. Maps identifying Palisades Plant facilities are provided in Figures 2-2 and 2-3. The Palisades Nuclear Power Plant (PNP) ceased power operations and is permanently defueled in accordance with 10 CFR 50.82(a)(1)(i) and (ii). On January 4, 2017, Entergy Nuclear Operations (ENO) submitted a certification of permanent cessation of power operations pursuant to 10 CFR 50.82(a)(1)(i). ENO has submitted written certification to the NRC in accordance with 10 CFR 50.82(1)(ii) that meets the requirements of 10 CFR 50.4(b)(9) certifying that fuel has been permanently removed from the reactor vessel. Upon docketing of these certifications, the 10 CFR Part 50 license for PNP no longer authorizes operation of the reactor or emplacement or retention of fuel into the reactor vessel, as specified in 10 CFR 50.82(a)(2).

With irradiated fuel being stored in the Spent Fuel Pool and the Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation (ISFSI), the reactor coolant system and secondary systems have no function related to the storage of the irradiated fuel. Therefore, the postulated accidents involving failure or malfunction of the reactor and reactor coolant system or secondary systems are no longer applicable.

The Palisades Plant is located in Covert Township, Van Buren County, Michigan.

The Plant is bordered to the north by the Van Buren State Park and to the west by Lake Michigan. The south and east are sparsely populated, underdeveloped, or used for farming. Interstate 196 and the Blue Star Highway lie within one mile east of the site. Much of the area around the site is devoted to recreation and tourism, which produces a fluctuating and seasonal population.

Highway access to the Plant is provided from the Blue Star Highway (A-2) via the Plant access road.

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT PSEP SITE POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 29TBD Page 14 of 105 TITLE: SITE POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN 2.2 POPULATION DISTRIBUTION AND EVACUATION TIMES The area within a 10-mile radius surrounding the Palisades Plant is designated as the plume exposure Emergency Planning Zone (EPZ). A comprehensive population study was prepared in August 2012 by KLD Engineering. The Evacuation Time Estimates for the plume EPZ are adopted as a progeny procedure to Palisades Site Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan. See PSEP Supp 2, "Evacuation Time Estimates."

2.3 EMERGENCY PLANNING ZONES EPZs are areas designated for which planning is recommended to assure that prompt and effective actions are taken to protect the public in the event of an accident.

Two EPZs have been identified for the purpose of development and implementation of emergency planning. The plume exposure emergency planning zone has a 10 mile radius. Within this zone, shelter and/or evacuation is the immediate protective action to be recommended for the general public. The principal concern with the plume exposure pathway is that of Total Effective Dose Equivalent (TEDE) exposure and/or exposure to the adult thyroid Committed Dose Equivalent (CDE) due to inhalation and ingestion.

The ingestion exposure EPZ extends to a 50-mile radius. Once exceeding the 10-mile radius, the plume exposure pathway is no longer of significant concern.

At this point, the ingestion pathway is of greatest concern.

2.4 PURPOSES AND OBJECTIVES Effective emergency preparedness needs to incorporate not only the emergency response for systems, but must also include response for people. Engineering safety systems at the Plant are designed to ensure that the consequences of a major malfunction will be mitigated prior to any adverse effect to the general public or facility. The basis for emergency planning is to provide human emergency response in much the same way as safety systems do for design.

It is imperative that all plans, programs, and procedures be well coordinated with the Emergency Plan. Only when they are well coordinated can the response to emergencies be initiated in a timely and effective manner.

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT PSEP SITE POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 29TBD Page 15 of 105 TITLE: SITE POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN 2.4.1 Regulatory Requirements 10 CFR 50, "Domestic Licensing Of Production and Utilization Facilities" Section 50.34, "Contents of Applications; Technical Information", requires that each application for a license to operate a facility include in a Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR), along with other information, the applicant's plans for coping with emergencies, including the items specified in Appendix E, "Emergency Planning and Preparedness for Production and Utilization Facilities," 10 CFR 50. Section 100.3, 10 CFR 100, "Reactor Site Criteria," in the definitions of exclusion area and low population zone, establishes additional criteria for plans to cope with emergencies and serious accidents. 10 CFR 50.47, "Emergency Plans," requires that adequate protective measures can and will be taken in the event of a radiological emergency.

Supplemental guidance has been provided by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) by the following documents:

a. NUREG-0654, Revision 1, "Criteria for Preparation and Evaluation of Radiological Emergency Response Plans and Preparedness in Support of Nuclear Power Plant" (November 1980).
b. NUREG-0696, "Functional Criteria for Emergency Response Facilities" (February 1981).

These documents describe methods acceptable to the NRC staff for compliance with the Commission's regulations in regard to the content of emergency plans for nuclear power plants including provisions for the periodic review and revision of the Emergency Plans.

2.4.2 Purpose of Emergency Preparedness The purpose of emergency preparedness is to provide a mechanism that would be used in making decisions in the event of an emergency, and to assure that the necessary equipment, supplies, and essential services are available to protect the health and safety of the public.

2.4.3 Objectives of the Palisades Site Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan The objectives of the Site Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan are to:

a. Establish criteria for classifying emergencies, performing notifications, activating emergency facilities, and activating portions of the emergency organization.

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT PSEP SITE POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 29TBD Page 16 of 105 TITLE: SITE POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN

b. Establish an emergency organization and assign responsibilities in the emergency organization for classifying emergencies, performing notifications, performing onsite protective actions, performing dose assessments, and making recommendations to offsite authorities.
c. Identify the support that will be provided to the onsite emergency organization by the Entergy Corporation headquarters and offsite organizations (ie, fire, ambulance, medical).
d. Identify the offsite authorities that are responsible for taking protective actions on behalf of members of the general public or that interface with this Emergency Plan.
e. Identify emergency facilities and available communication systems to be used by the emergency organization.
f. Identify training for personnel in the emergency organization.
g. Provide for drills and exercises of the emergency organization.
h. Provide for periodic review and update of the plan.

SUMMARY

OF EMERGENCY PLAN INTERRELATIONSHIPS This Emergency Plan should not, in itself, be considered the sole working document to be used during an emergency. The purpose of the Emergency Plan is to classify emergencies according to their severity, to assign responsibilities for actions, and to clearly outline the most effective course of action required to safeguard the public and Plant personnel in the event of an emergency. Detailed instructions and guidelines for emergency actions are included in other plans, programs, and procedures as described below.

2.5.1 Site Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan Supplement 1 The "Site Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan Supplement 1 - EAL Wall Charts" contains the Palisades Emergency Action Levels in a wall chart format. It is part of the Site Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan. Changes to the supplement require all the same types of reviews and approvals as required for the Site Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan. Revisions to the supplement will be tracked by its own revision number, not the PSEP's revision number.

The "Site Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan Supplement 1 - EAL Wall Charts" will be maintained in the same binder as the Site Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan.

It is part of the Site Post-Shhutdown Emergency Plan. Changes to the supplement require all the same types of reviews and approvals as required for the Site Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan.

Revisions to the supplement will be tracked by its own revision number, not the PSEPs revision number.

The Site Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan Supplement 2 - "Evacuation Time Estimates" will be maintained in the same binder as the Site Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan.

2.5.3 Emergency Implementing Procedures Detailed Emergency Implementing Procedures required to implement the plan have been developed. An index of the Emergency Implementing Procedures is included in Appendix D.

Detailed implementing procedures for emergencies considered to be special events, such as civil disturbances, bomb threats, and breaches in security are included as part of the Safeguards Contingency Procedures.

Separate emergency procedures are not provided for activities already covered by Plant or section Operating Procedures (ie, calibration of survey instruments). The plan relies on certain aspects of the Plant's operating procedures, radiation protection procedures, and security procedures, where they are required for clarification.

2.5.4 Related Plans, Programs, and Procedures Several plans, programs, and procedures have been developed to assure the safe operation of the Plant. The Site Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan and Emergency Implementing Procedures have been written to coordinate these plans with other programs and procedures. During emergency situations, the coordination and utilization of all plans and procedures are essential.

The Safeguards Contingency Procedures have been coordinated with the Site Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan and Emergency Implementing Procedures to minimize the consequences of an emergency situation. Security procedures contain an explanation of the duties and responsibilities for security personnel in the event of an emergency.

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT PSEP SITE POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 29TBD Page 18 of 105 TITLE: SITE POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Provisions for radiological control at the Plant have been covered in Radiation Protection Procedures. These procedures establish controls and protective measures to be placed on work being conducted in radiation areas. Inclusive within the area of radiation control are the procedures that Radiation Protection establishes for determining exposure through surveys, analysis, and various other avenues.

The Palisades Emergency Operating Procedures have been developed to control Plant operation during emergency situations. These emergency procedures work in conjunction with the Emergency Plan Implementing Procedures.

The Palisades Nuclear Plant Public Information Policies and Procedures contain the information necessary to establish a flow of emergency information to the public.

The Palisades Fire Protection Plan has been developed to assure the safe operation of the Plant during a fire.

SUMMARY

The Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan establishes the basic steps that will be used to determine the response of the emergency organization for each of four emergency classes. The emergency classes are as follows: Unusual Event, Alert, Site Area Emergency, and General Emergency. The conditions that must exist for the declaration of a specific emergency class are presented in the Site Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan, Supplement 1 - EAL Wall Charts.

The declaration of each class will lead to specific notification of offsite authorities.

Emergency facilities shall be activated as described in Table 3-1, "Emergency Classifications and the Level of Response by Participating Groups," and staffed as presented in Section 5 of the Palisades Site Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan. In response to a particular event, certain protective actions may be initiated or certain offsite agencies may be activated. These actions are detailed in Section 6 of the Palisades Site Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan. Palisades maintains the capability to assess, classify, and declare an emergency condition within 15 minutes after the availability of indications to plant operators that an emergency action level has been exceeded and promptly declares the emergency condition as soon as possible following identification of the appropriate emergency classification level.

For emergencies that result in (1) the release of radioactive materials greater than specified levels, or (2) the degradation of barriers to the release of radioactive materials, assessments of the offsite consequences or the projected offsite consequences shall be made. These assessments will be transmitted to the offsite authorities responsible for taking protective actions on behalf of the general public.

Recommendations to these offsite authorities will be based on the protective actions identified in Table 6-2 from the Palisades Site Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan.

3.1 POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN STEPS In general, the Post-shutdown Emergency Plan encompasses the following basic steps:

a. Detection of the emergency
b. Classification of the emergency
c. Notification of offsite agencies
d. Activation of the responding organization(s)
e. Assessment of the situation
f. Initiation of protective actions
g. Initiation of corrective actions
h. Aid to affected persons
i. Reentry and recovery

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT PSEP SITE POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 29TBD Page 23 of 105 TITLE: SITE POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN 3.2 ENTERGY CORPORATION EMERGENCY ORGANIZATION This Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan establishes an organization capable of responding to the complete spectrum of incidents covered by this Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan. Provisions are made for rapid notification of appropriate portions of the response organization, and for expanding the response organization if the situation dictates.

An individual having the authority and responsibility to initiate any emergency actions within the provisions of this Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan, including the exchange of information with authorities responsible for coordinating offsite emergency measures, is onsite at all times. This individual is the Shift Manager until relieved by the Emergency Director.

The operating shift crew is responsible for implementing emergency action(s) in accordance with assigned response functions. Emergency response functions are also assigned to additional Plant staff personnel who are rapidly alerted and mobilized to augment or relieve the operating shift personnel of emergency duties as deemed appropriate by the Emergency Plant Manager, and in accordance with the implementing procedures of this Plan.

In addition, this Plan includes offsite agencies and organizations who have signed letters of agreement with Palisades Nuclear Power Plant (see Appendix A). Their designated response functions include implementation of offsite protective actions, transportation and treatment of personnel requiring medical treatment, control of access to the station, fire-fighting support, radiological sampling and assessment, technical consultation, and testing.

3.3 EMERGENCY CLASSIFICATIONS Emergencies are grouped into four classifications listed below in order of severity:

a. Unusual Event 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.

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT PSEP SITE POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 29TBD Page 24 of 105 TITLE: SITE POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN

b. Alert 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 security event that involves probable life threatening risk to site personnel or damage to site equipment because of HOSTILE ACTION. Any releases are expected to be limited to small fractions of the EPA Protective Action Guideline exposure levels.
c. Site Area Emergency Events are in process or have occurred which involve an 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 which exceed EPA Protective Action Guideline exposure levels beyond the site boundary.

d. General Emergency 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.

Section 4 from the Palisades Nuclear Plant Site Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan contains a more detailed discussion of the classifications of emergencies. Table 3-1, "Emergency Classifications and the Level of Response by Participating Groups,"

shows, in column form, the emergency classifications, and the degrees of involvement of onsite and offsite organizations.

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT PSEP SITE POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 29TBD Page 25 of 105 TITLE: SITE POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN 3.4 EMERGENCY ACTIONS In all instances, when one of the classifications of the above emergencies occurs in the Plant, the Shift Manager is responsible for taking immediate action to safeguard personnel and equipment. Utilizing the Palisades Nuclear Plant Emergency Implementing Procedures, the Shift Manager shall activate the necessary portions of the Site Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan. The basic considerations for safe operation of the Plant, and for action in the event of an emergency in the Plant, are summarized as follows:

a. In any event, protection of Plant personnel and the public is the highest priority. A range of protective actions to protect onsite personnel during hostile action is provided to ensure the continued ability to safely shut down the reactor and perform the functions of the emergency plan. Plant system and equipment protection is secondary.
b. When there is doubt as to the classification of the emergency condition, the more conservative case is considered.
c. The instrumentation is assumed to be providing correct information unless it is clearly identified that an instrument is erroneous or out of service.
d. All alarms are promptly acknowledged, any required response action is taken, and an immediate investigation of the cause that initiated the alarm is made.

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT PSEP SITE POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 29TBD Page 27 of 105 TITLE: SITE POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN 4.0 POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY CONDITIONS 4.1 EMERGENCY CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM This Site Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan provides four mutually exclusive classifications covering the postulated spectrum of emergency situations. For each classification, a particular set of immediate actions to be taken is established as described in Section 6, of the Site Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan. Actions for each of the four mutually exclusive classifications are defined in Emergency Implementing Procedure EI-1, "Emergency Classification and Actions,"

Attachment 1, "Emergency Actions."

The various classifications of accidents represent a hierarchy of accidents based on potential or actual hazards presented to the general public. Accidents may be classified in a lower category at first and then escalated to another higher classification if the situation deteriorates. Accident classification may be downgraded as conditions improve. The four classes that comprise the Emergency Classification System are:

a. Unusual Event
b. Alert
c. Site Area Emergency
d. General Emergency All emergency measures begin with the notification of the Shift Manager that a situation exists which presents a real or potential hazard. This is followed by assessment and evaluation by the Shift Manager, classification of the emergency, notifications, and activation and/or mobilization of the applicable emergency organizations. Section 6 summarizes the emergency measures to be taken by both the onsite and offsite emergency organizations.

Emergency Action Levels (EALs) are used to describe each of the four emergency classes. These levels are composed of a combination of Plant parameters (such as instrument readings and system status) that can be used to give relatively quick indication to the Plant operating staff of the severity of the accident situation.

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT PSEP SITE POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 29TBD Page 28 of 105 TITLE: SITE POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN The purpose of the EAL is to provide the earliest possible identification of actual or potential accident situations. In most cases, further assessment action will be conducted both onsite and offsite before actual protective actions are initiated.

EALs associated with radioactive releases are related to the Environmental Protection Agency's Protective Actions Guides (PAG) summarized in EPA 400-R-92-001, "Manual of Protective Action Guides and Protective Actions for Nuclear Incidents." An assessment by the Plant emergency organization along with state support agencies of the potential of reaching or exceeding the PAG will be performed following the declaration of an emergency class.

When EALs are observed in conjunction with Plant or equipment status due to planned maintenance or testing activities, an emergency condition does not exist.

A conservative philosophy for classification shall be used to declare the highest classification for which an EAL has been exceeded. For example, a Site Area Emergency would be declared directly if a Site Area Emergency level is exceeded without having previously been declared in a lower Alert classification.

The Emergency Action Levels are not necessarily all inclusive. The Shift Manager/EOF Emergency Director shall declare an appropriate emergency classification whenever, in their personal judgment, the Plant status warrants such a declaration.

Palisades Emergency Action Levels can be found in the "Site Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan Supplement 1 - EAL Wall Charts."

4.1.1 Unusual Event The Unusual Event is the least severe of the four emergency classifications. For the purposes of this plan, an Unusual Event is defined as that situation where, "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."

The purpose of the Unusual Event declaration is to:

a. Assure that the first step in any response later found to be necessary has been carried out.
b. Bring the Plant operations staff to a state of readiness.

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT PSEP SITE POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 29TBD Page 29 of 105 TITLE: SITE POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN

c. Provide systematic handling of Unusual Events information and decision-making.

Guidelines for Plant, State, and local actions are listed in Table 4-1.

An incident shall be classified as an Unusual Event if the event is minor in nature, involves no releases of radioactive material requiring offsite response or monitoring, and presents no immediate hazard to the public. Events in this classification are selected based upon a potential to degenerate to a more severe situation rather than an actual public hazard.

4.1.2 Alert An Alert is defined as that situation where, "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 security event that involves probable life threatening risk to site personnel or damage to site equipment because of HOSTILE ACTION. Any releases are expected to be limited to small fractions of the EPA Protective Action Guideline exposure levels." The Alert class involves relatively minor emergency situations that have a direct effect on the Plant safety-related systems. The Alert shall set into motion personnel onsite and offsite who would be required to perform actions up to and including the evacuation of near-site areas. The Alert class also addresses limited releases of radioactive material and, therefore, might require some assessment actions by the emergency organizations.

The purpose of the Alert declaration is to:

a. Assure that emergency personnel are readily available to respond if the situation becomes more serious or to perform confirmatory radiation monitoring if required.
b. Provide offsite authorities current status information.

Guidelines for Plant, State, and local actions are listed in Table 4-1.

An incident shall be classified as an Alert if there is real or potential limited releases of radioactive material to the environment. A situation shall be classified at the Alert level only if EALs for higher classification have not been exceeded or are not expected to be exceeded in the near term.

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT PSEP SITE POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 29TBD Page 30 of 105 TITLE: SITE POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN 4.1.3 Site Area Emergency A Site Area Emergency is defined as that situation where, "Events are in process or have occurred which involve an 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 which exceed EPA Protective Action Guideline exposure levels beyond the site boundary.

The purpose of the Site Area Emergency declaration is to:

a. Assure that emergency response facilities are manned.
b. Assure that radiation-monitoring teams are dispatched both onsite and offsite.
c. Assure that personnel required for evacuation of near-site areas are at their duty stations if the situation becomes more serious.
d. Provide consultation with offsite authorities.
e. Provide updates for the public through offsite authorities.

Guidelines for Plant, State, and local actions are listed in Table 4-1. Although immediate protective actions are not automatically required, declaration of a Site Area Emergency shall set into motion all personnel onsite and offsite who would be required to perform actions up to and including the evacuation of near-site areas.

Dispatched radiation monitoring teams will make continuing assessments to provide officials with information to decide protective actions. The Site Area Emergency classification includes accidents that have significant radiation release potential.

Unlike the Unusual Event and Alert classifications of emergencies, the Site Area Emergency classification may involve some radiation exposure to the near-site public. Many of the accidents included in this classification have the potential for degradation to the General Emergency classification. Although the EALs for this classification have been selected at values well below the EPA PAGs, offsite monitoring team reports and continuing assessment actions shall lead to any final decision on protective actions to be taken.

Accidents that have significant potential for the release of radioactive material shall be classified as a Site Area Emergency.

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT PSEP SITE POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 29TBD Page 31 of 105 TITLE: SITE POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN 4.1.4 General Emergency The General Emergency is the most severe classification of emergency. The General Emergency classification is defined as that situation where, "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."

The purpose of the General Emergency declaration is to:

a. Initiate predetermined protective actions for the public.
b. Provide continuous assessment of information from Palisades Plant, and offsite monitoring groups.
c. Initiate additional measures as indicated by event releases or potential releases.
d. Provide consultation with offsite authorities.
e. Provide updates for the public through offsite authorities.

Guidelines for Plant, State, and local actions are listed in Table 4-1. Some protective actions may be recommended upon declaration of the General Emergency since the lower limits of the EPA PAGs are likely to be exceeded.

Emergency Action Levels (EAL) have been selected so that time should be available to make some confirmatory measurements in the field prior to implementation of the more extensive (i.e., evacuation) protective action. Some of the General Emergency action levels require a dose projection calculation using actual meteorology. This differs from the adverse meteorology assumptions used in the Site Emergency action Action levels Levels in order to remove this built-in conservatism and to preclude declaring a General Emergency when actual conditions do not warrant the higher classification. Declaration of a General Emergency requires a recommendation to the State for protective actions for the local population.

4.2 CLASSIFICATION OF POSTULATED ACCIDENTS The events postulated in Section 14, Palisades Plant Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR), may be categorized into one or more of the four emergency classifications. A complete discussion of these events may be found in the FSAR.

a. This section identifies the measure to be used for each type of emergency previously classified in Section 4. The logic presented in this section is used as the basis for the detailed Palisades Nuclear Plant Emergency Implementing Procedures which define the emergency actions to be taken for each emergency classification. Emergency measures begin with the following:
1. Recognition, classification, and declaration of an emergency condition.
2. Notification of the applicable agencies and personnel (Figure 6-1).
3. Mobilization of the appropriate portions of the emergency organization.
b. Emergency measures are additionally organized into the following categories:
1. Assessment actions
2. Corrective actions
3. Protective actions These measures are described in the following sections for each emergency classification.

6.1 ACTIVATION OF THE EMERGENCY ORGANIZATION If it appears that an incident or condition may meet or exceed a predetermined value or condition specified as an Emergency Action Level in Emergency Implementing Procedure EI-1, "Emergency Classification and Actions," and PSEP Supplement 1 "SITE POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Supplement 1 - EAL Wall Charts" then certain portions of this plan and specific procedures shall require implementation.

The Shift Manager will initially classify the emergency and ensure required notifications are made. The Shift Manager shall ensure that an overall assessment of the emergency is performed in order to determine the most appropriate classification and, based on this determination, activate portions of the emergency organization as necessary. The Shift Engineer/Shift Technical Advisor may assist the Shift Manager in performing these functions. The methodology used in activating the emergency organizations during each class of emergency is provided in the following sections:

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT PSEP SITE POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 29TBD Page 64 of 105 TITLE: SITE POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN 6.1.6 Affected Counties: Van Buren County, Berrien County, and Allegan County Emergency responsibilities of County Emergency Management include communication support to the responding county departments, providing warning and notification to the public, and assuring the continuation of vital services during the emergency.

6.2 ASSESSMENT ACTIONS Effective coordination and direction of all portions of the emergency organization require almost continuous accident assessment during the course of the emergency.

Each emergency class will require similar accident assessment methods; however, each classification imposes a different magnitude of assessment effort. In the following steps, the assessment actions to be taken for each emergency classification are outlined.

6.2.1 Assessment Actions for Unusual Events The detection of an Unusual Event shall arise from exceeding a specific Emergency Action Level for this class. Detection of the event will come as a result of alarms, instrument readings, recognition through experience, or any combination thereof.

The continuing assessment actions to be performed for this classification of emergency shall be in accordance with the Emergency Implementing Procedures and shall consist of the normal monitoring of Control Room and other Plant instrumentation and status indication until the situation is resolved. If a fire is the reason for the declaration of an Unusual Event, the Shift Manager will make continuing assessments based on his knowledge and experience on whether offsite firefighting assistance is needed.

6.2.2 Assessment Actions for Alerts When an accident has been classified as an Alert by the Shift Manager, assessment actions shall be performed in accordance with the Emergency Implementing Procedures for an Alert.

These actions include:

a. Accountability of onsite personnel.
b. Staff augmentation, as needed.
c. Increased surveillance of in-plant instrumentation.

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT PSEP SITE POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 29TBD Page 65 of 105 TITLE: SITE POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN

d. Activation of appropriate emergency facilities.
e. Dispatch of shift personnel, if possible, to the identified problem area for confirmation and visual assessment.
f. Dispatch of onsite Radiation Monitoring Teams to monitor for possible release and to provide confirmation of correct accident classification.
g. If a radiological accident is occurring, surveillance of the in-plant instrumentation is necessary to obtain meteorological and radiological data required for calculating or estimating projected doses. This dose assessment activity shall continue until termination of the emergency in order that the updating of initial assessments may be provided to all concerned offsite agencies, the Shift Manager, and EOF Emergency Director. Emergency Implementing Procedures are provided to aid in a rapid, consistent projection of doses.

6.2.3 Assessment Actions for Site Area Emergencies The assessment actions for the Site Area Emergency classification are similar to the actions for an Alert; however, due to the increased magnitude of the possible release of radioactive material, a significantly larger assessment will occur. The necessary personnel for this assessment effort shall be provided by mobilization of the onsite and offsite emergency organizations.

Specifically:

a. An increased amount of Plant instrumentation shall be monitored, in particular, indications of core status (eg, in-core thermocouple readings, etc) shall be monitored.
b. Radiological monitoring efforts shall be increased. Onsite and offsite radiological monitoring teams will be dispatched. In addition to beta-gamma field measurements, change out of environmental thermoluminescent dosimeters (TLD), air sampling, and collection of the environmental media for assessment of radioactive material transport and deposition may also be performed.

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT PSEP SITE POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 29TBD Page 66 of 105 TITLE: SITE POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN

c. Dose assessment activities will be conducted more frequently with an increased emphasis on dose projections for use as a factor in determining the necessity for protective actions for the public. Radiological (eg, TLDs) and meteorological instrumentation readings shall be used to project the dose rate at predetermined distances from the Plant, and to determine the integrated dose received. In reporting the dose projections to offsite agencies, the dose rate, dose, and the basis for the time used for the dose estimate shall always be provided. Any confirmation of dose rates by offsite Radiation Monitoring Teams shall be reflected in reporting and/or revising the dose estimate information provided to offsite agencies.

Dose projections shall be considered with respect to the Environmental Protection Agency Protective Action Guides (Table 6-1). Reporting of assessments to offsite authorities shall include the relationship of the dose to these guidelines. Emergency Implementing Procedures will be provided for recording all pertinent information.

6.2.4 Assessment Actions for General Emergencies Assessment actions for the General Emergency classification shall be the same as for the Site Area Emergency with some possible shift of emphasis to greater offsite radiation monitoring and dose projections extending to distances farther from the site.

6.2.5 Estimation of Offsite Dose The Emergency Implementing Procedures (reference Emergency Implementing Procedure EI-6, "Offsite Dose Calculation and Recommendations for Protective Actions") contain several methods for calculating offsite dose to population from accidental releases. These methods include:

a. Computer Method - Implements the above method using a personal computer to speed the process.
b. Manual Method - A pencil and paper method for calculating offsite dose using precalculated diffusion factors and a straight line Gaussian methodology.
c. Segmented Gaussian - Variable trajectory Plume model.

The above methods have been developed in cooperation with state agencies and provide methods for rapid, accurate dose estimates.

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT PSEP SITE POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 29TBD Page 67 of 105 TITLE: SITE POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN 6.2.6 Data Reporting, Recording, and Analysis Specially assigned personnel at all designated emergency centers have the responsibility for collecting, recording, and analyzing data transmitted to them.

Preplanned emergency logs and procedures are provided to ensure that all necessary information is received and recorded. Included will be:

a. Data from emergency survey teams as available. This will be recorded to define the affected environs.
b. Evacuated Plant personnel will be questioned to gather all possible information on observed conditions.
c. In addition to incoming data, a log of events occurring at the emergency centers (TSC, OSC, EOF) and Control Room will be kept. Individual sections of this log will record such items as personnel exposure, contamination levels, communications, and check-off lists.

6.2.7 Interviewing Evacuees or Other Witnesses Information from personnel evacuating the site may be collected at the evacuation control point as directed by the Emergency Plant Manager. This information shall be reported to the TSC when possible.

6.2.8 Assessment Results Communications The EOF Emergency Director is notified of assessment results from the site and from offsite support agencies. The EOF Emergency Director, in turn, is responsible for communication back to those groups so that emergency measures may be modified as necessary.

6.3 CORRECTIVE ACTIONS Detailed operating procedures are available to the operators for use during emergencies as well as during normal operations. Specific emergency procedures are provided to assist the operators in placing the Plant in a safe condition and taking the necessary supplemental corrective actions. In addition, operations personnel are trained in the operation of the Plant systems and their associated procedures and are, therefore, capable of taking appropriate corrective actions based on their training, knowledge, and experience.

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT PSEP SITE POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 29TBD Page 68 of 105 TITLE: SITE POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Corrective actions shall be planned events that are taken to lessen or terminate the emergency situation. Planned radioactive releases or corrective actions that may result in a radioactive release shall be evaluated by the EOF Emergency Director, and his staff, as far in advance of the event as is possible. Such events and data pertaining to the release shall be reported to the appropriate offsite emergency response organization and/or agencies.

6.3.1 Fire Control Provisions for firefighting and control are described in the Fire Protection Implementing Procedures. The Covert Township Fire Department and the South Haven Fire Department provide Offsite backup firefighting support.

In-plant firefighting equipment ranges from portable extinguishers to automatic sprinkler control. The Plant emergency organization includes a trained fire brigade for immediate response to any fire situation.

The Van Buren Dispatch, via 911, is first to be called. They are required to dispatch both Covert and South Haven Fire Departments. These departments consist of personnel trained for firefighting, including situations involving radioactive contamination. Additional support is available from fire departments in nearby Allegan and Berrien Counties through mutual aid agreements. These fire departments are also trained and equipped for rescue work and control of hazardous gas leaks, including chlorine gas.

6.3.2 Repair and Damage Control The Palisades Plant staff is comprised of technically and vocationally trained personnel capable of improvising necessary repair and control measures for correction of an emergency situation. Wherever possible, corrective measures are anticipated and included in emergency and operating procedures.

6.3.3 System Control System design is aimed at automatic corrective actions, such as Plant shutdown and system isolation, whenever operating parameters become abnormal. Operating procedures are written for manual control of these same situations, should automatic features fail.

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT PSEP SITE POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 29TBD Page 69 of 105 TITLE: SITE POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN 6.4 PROTECTIVE ACTIONS Protective actions are emergency measures taken during or after an emergency situation that are intended to minimize or eliminate the hazard to the health and safety of the general public and/or Plant personnel. Such actions taken onsite are the responsibility of the Entergy Corporation, while those offsite actions are the responsibility of the State of Michigan and local political jurisdictions. Protective Action Guides for the Environmental Protection Agency and the State of Michigan are shown on Tables 6-1 and 6-2. All visitors to the site protected area shall be either escorted by an employee knowledgeable as to the Emergency Plan response actions or shall receive training on actions required by them during an emergency.

6.4.1 Sheltering, Evacuation, Personnel Accountability During an emergency, the relocation of personnel may be required in order to prevent or minimize exposure to radiation and radioactive materials. The following steps present information on policies applicable to such situations:

a. Plant Site
1. Notification All persons onsite at the time of an Alert, Site Area, or General Emergency shall be notified of the emergency by a two-minute steady siren and an announcement over the public address system in the assembly areas. Notification of an Unusual Event should be over the Plant public address system. For the Alert and above, personnel shall be instructed to report to assembly areas for accountability, monitoring, and possible evacuation. Personnel accountability shall be completed in approximately 30 minutes. Specific assembly areas are designated in the Emergency Implementing Procedures. All personnel shall be trained in the locations of the assembly areas, or be escorted by an employee who is so trained. At the assembly area, members of the emergency organization shall direct efforts per the applicable Emergency Implementing Procedure. These procedures shall provide contingency plans for weather, traffic, and radiological impediments to evacuation.

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT PSEP SITE POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 29TBD Page 70 of 105 TITLE: SITE POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN

2. Site Access Control Provisions for control of access to the Palisades site have been included in the Safeguards Contingency Procedures to take care of personnel entering for business purposes and for those who might inadvertently enter. Access to the exclusion areas of the Plant is controlled by the Plant security force. Offsite support is provided by local and/or state law enforcement personnel.
3. Monitoring of Evacuees A combination of checking electronic dosimeters and questioning of evacuees will be used to initially determine if there were any high external exposures involved in the emergency. For any known or suspected high exposures, the permanent dosimeters will be read as soon as possible and further investigation will be conducted to determine the amount of exposure or necessary actions to be taken.

Monitoring for contamination and internal ingestion at the assembly areas will be accomplished by using portable instrumentation and questioning. Priority for decontamination will be given persons found with the highest levels of contamination. Any persons suspected or known to have ingested radioactivity will be whole-body counted, as soon as conditions permit, to assess their internal exposure.

Decontamination supplies for evacuees shall be available.

4. Egress Routes Three potential routes are available: Plant access road to the east and the beach to the north or south. Unless conditions dictate otherwise, the Plant access road to the east will be the primary evacuation route.

An evacuation procedure shall require a personnel accountability check at the appropriate control point/monitoring station. Security officers shall be dispatched by the Emergency Plant Manager to stop ingress from the access roads and to assist Plant personnel evacuating the site. A control point/monitoring station shall be established along the egress route in an area expected to be outside the path of possible radioactive releases.

Action levels and responsibilities for execution of these measures are included. Contaminated areas will be barricaded and posted to control access until time allows for decontamination activities. Michigan Department of Environmental Quality representatives will be responsible for these actions and will be assisted by other Michigan State Departments and/or Entergy Corporation upon request.

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT PSEP SITE POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 29TBD Page 74 of 105 TITLE: SITE POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN 6.5 AID TO AFFECTED PERSONNEL 6.5.1 Emergency Personnel Exposure Criteria Although an emergency situation transcends the normal requirements for limiting exposure, there are suggested levels of exposure acceptable in emergencies. Even under these conditions, every reasonable effort to minimize exposure must be made and personnel must be provided with appropriate monitoring devices. Three categories of risk versus benefit must be considered:

a. Saving of human life and reduction of injury.
b. Protection of health and safety of the public.
c. Protection of property.

In order to avoid restricting actions that may be necessary to save lives, it shall be left to the judgment of the individual to determine the amount of exposure that he will accept to perform an emergency action that will result in the saving of human life.

Emergency team members are instructed in radiation effects and the risks involved for emergency doses. Basic guidelines provided to emergency team members are the EPA recommendations contained in Table 6-3. These exposures must be authorized by the Emergency Plant Manager based on the recommendation of the TSC Rad Coordinator.

The Radiation Protection Procedures shall be followed. In the event emergency exposure limits are approved, the same administrative methods for dose control shall be used with the higher emergency exposure limits.

Once the emergency condition has been mitigated, steps shall be taken to recover from the incident. All actions from this point shall be preplanned in order to limit exposures. Normal exposure limits will be used, areas will be controlled, and exposure of personnel documented.

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT PSEP SITE POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 29TBD Page 75 of 105 TITLE: SITE POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN 6.5.2 Decontamination and First Aid Onsite personnel decontamination facilities for emergency conditions are fully equipped with decontamination material. The decontamination facility at Palisades Plant is located at the access control area of the auxiliary building.

The decontamination facility consists of a shower, sink, and first-aid kits.

Decontamination supplies such as various decontamination solutions and surgical brushes will be stored in the decontamination facility. Emergency equipment located around the site is available and includes personnel monitoring equipment. There are also additional personnel monitoring equipment located at the access control area including dosimeters, and high and low-range survey instruments. A comprehensive list of materials and equipment available for use can be found in Appendix E.

In an emergency situation, decontamination is the responsibility of the Radiation Monitoring Team. When decontamination of an area or equipment is required, personnel from Operations, Maintenance, and Radiation Protection will work jointly.

Medical first-aid training is provided to designated members of the Plant emergency organization that, as a minimum, includes the Red Cross Multimedia course or equivalent, combined with the American Heart Association Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation course. This training for members of the Plant staff also includes methods of handling contaminated patients and/or injuries. At least one person on each operating shift is required to have this first-aid training.

The Covert Township Fire Department ambulance personnel and the South Haven Area Emergency Services ambulance staff are trained in caring for radiologically contaminated victims.

6.5.3 Medical Treatment In the event of a serious accident at Palisades Plant requiring medical treatment, agreements have been made with the area hospitals. These hospitals are:

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT PSEP SITE POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 29TBD Page 103 of 105 TITLE: SITE POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN 9.2.3 Conduct comprehensive radiation surveillance of Plant facilities and define radiological problem areas.

9.2.4 Isolate and post areas in the Plant with appropriate warning signs and rope barriers, as Radiation Areas, High Radiation Areas, and Contaminated Areas, as appropriate.

9.3 The nature and extent of the emergency situation will determine what recovery operations are required. The Recovery Organization described in Section 5 will be established as directed by the Recovery Manager.

9.3.1 In order for the recovery phase of the emergency to commence, the conditions which caused the incident must no longer exist. It is the responsibility of the EOF Emergency Director to determine that the facility and/or surroundings are safe.

9.3.2 The following criteria must be met before the recovery and reentry phase can begin:

a. The Plant is in a controlled and stable condition,
b. The release of radioactive materials to the environment is under control or has ceased.
c. In-plant radiation levels are stable or decreasing.
d. Fire, flood, etc, is under control or has ceased.
e. At least one level of redundancy in plant systems should be available to prevent reinitiation of the event.
f. Consensus has been reached among the SED, EOF Director, NRC, and the State.

9.4 The initial objectives of the recovery program are the determination of the damage to equipment, the installation of shielding, rope barriers and signs, the application of clearance tags, decontamination, and cleanup as required to place the Plant in an acceptable long-term condition. Other recovery operations will not be initiated until the area affected by the emergency has been defined. Particular attention will be directed toward isolating and tagging out components and systems as required to control or minimize hazards. A systematic investigation will be conducted to determine the equipment damaged and the extent of the damage.

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT PSEP SITE POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 29TBD Page 104 of 105 TITLE: SITE POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN 9.5 Once the initial objectives are completed, a detailed investigation of the accident causes and consequences both to the Plant and to the environment will be conducted. Determination will be made as to the equipment repair work required as well as the need to modify Plant operating procedures. Repair work and approved modifications shall be carried out as authorized. Test programs to confirm fitness for return to service will be developed and executed.

9.6 Recovery operations will be conducted in compliance with normal operational radiation exposure levels as specified in 10 CFR 20. When possible, any necessary releases of radiation during recovery will be planned, controlled, evaluated in advance for radiological impact, and appropriate offsite organizations and agencies informed of the scheduled releases and estimated impact.

9.7 The State EOC will be advised when the Plant deems it safe to begin the reentry phase of the offsite recovery operation. If the Governor has ordered an evacuation, it is legally required for the Governor to officially rescind the order. The Michigan Department of Environmental Quality is responsible for coordinating reentry procedures for the offsite population.

1.0 INTRODUCTION

The purpose of the Palisades Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan (PSEP) is to aid in protecting members of the general public, persons temporarily visiting the site, and site employees.

Information submitted in this plan was developed using the guidance provided in NUREG-0654, Revision 1, "Criteria for Preparation and Evaluation of Radiological Emergency Response Plans and Procedures in Support of Nuclear Power Plants,"

published in November 1980 and with Regulatory Guide 1.70, Revision 2, "Standard Format and Content of Safety Analysis Reports for Nuclear Power Plants," dated September 1975.

Detailed procedures concerning the implementation of the Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan are not included here, but are included in the Palisades Nuclear Plant Emergency Implementing Procedures. These procedures describe the duties and actions of individuals and groups in the event of an emergency and also serve as an interface of the Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan with Plant operations, security, and radiological controls procedures. Selected elements of the Quality Program are applied to the Post-Shutdown Emergency Planning Function for the Palisades Plant.

1.1 DEFINITIONS 1.1.1 Accident Any unexpected or unintentional event resulting in radiological exposure, contamination, or physical injury to individuals requiring offsite medical treatment, and/or physical damage to safety-related components.

1.1.2 Activation Actions taken to staff and setup an emergency response facility to make it operational. Actions include, but are not limited to, notification of emergency personnel, equipment setup, and equipment operability testing.

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT PSEP POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Revision TBD Page 7 of 104 TITLE: POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN 1.1.3 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.

1.1.4 Alarm An indication of abnormal Plant conditions and/or equipment status.

1.1.5 Alert 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 security event that involves probable life threatening risk to site personnel or damage to site equipment because of HOSTILE ACTION. Any releases are expected to be limited to small fractions of the EPA Protective Action Guideline exposure levels.

1.1.6 Annunciation An alarm or indication of normal or abnormal conditions.

1.1.7 Assessment Actions Those actions taken during or after an accident to provide data to make decisions.

1.1.8 Command and Control Resides with the Shift Manager or EOF Emergency Director following assumption of overall authority for Entergy Corporation emergency response. At minimum, this individual will assume responsibility for event classification, dose assessment, protective action recommendations, and notification of offsite authorities.

1.1.9 Control Room The location at Palisades Plant from which systems are controlled. The assembly area for Control Room personnel.

1.1.10 Control Room Personnel The credited on shift complement consists of a Shift Manager (qualified as a Certified Fuel Handler (CFH)) and two (2) Non-Certified Operators.

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT PSEP POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Revision TBD Page 8 of 104 TITLE: POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN 1.1.11 Corrective Actions Those emergency measures taken to lessen or terminate an emergency situation at, or near, the source of the problem.

1.1.12 Decontamination The removal of radioactive material from individuals, equipment, surfaces, foodstuffs, etc.

1.1.13 Emergency Any occurrence at the Palisades Nuclear Power Plant that may result in undue risk to the health and safety of the onsite personnel or the public.

1.1.14 Emergency Action Levels (EAL)

A predetermined, site-specific, observable threshold for a plant Initiating Condition that places the plant in a given emergency class. An EAL can be: an instrument reading; an equipment status indicator; a measurable parameter (onsite or offsite);

a discrete, observable event; results of analyses; entry into specific emergency operating procedures; or another phenomenon which, if it occurs, indicates entry into a particular emergency class.

There are times when an EAL will be a threshold point on a measurable continuous function, such as a primary system coolant leak that has exceeded technical specifications.

At other times, the EAL lists a discrete event that places the plant in a particular emergency class.

1.1.15 Emergency Operations Facility (EOF)

An offsite emergency center from which the offsite emergency support actions of Entergy Corporation are controlled and coordinated with state, local, and federal authorities to mitigate the consequences of an emergency.

1.1.16 Emergency Implementing Procedures Specific procedures providing specific actions to implement the Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan in order to mitigate or terminate an emergency situation.

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT PSEP POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Revision TBD Page 9 of 104 TITLE: POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN 1.1.17 Emergency Planning Zones (EPZ)

Two zones that encircle the Palisades Plant. The primary EPZ plume exposure pathway, with a radius of 10 miles, has been established to prevent excessive airborne exposure, and the secondary EPZ, ingestion exposure pathway, with a radius of 50 miles, has been established to prevent excessive ingestion of contaminated food. Within these two zones, protective actions are described for the protection of the public.

1.1.18 Fitness For Duty Provide reasonable assurance that personnel who maintain unescorted access will perform their tasks in a reliable and trustworthy manner and are not under the influence of any substance, legal or illegal, or mentally or physically impaired from any cause, which in any way adversely affects their ability to safely and competently perform their duties.

1.1.19 Fully Operational Status of an Emergency Response Facility following assumption of all responsibilities.

1.1.20 General Emergency 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.

1.1.21 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. Nonterrorism-based EALs should be used to address such activities (eg, violent acts between individuals in the owner controlled area).

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT PSEP POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Revision TBD Page 10 of 104 TITLE: POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN 1.1.22 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.

1.1.23 Ingestion Exposure Pathway The path affected by fallout from a radioactive plume. Of major concern is the contamination of food and water within the emergency planning zones.

1.1.24 Initiating Condition (IC): One of a predetermined subset of nuclear power plant conditions when either the potential exists for a radiological emergency, or such an emergency has occurred.

An IC is an emergency condition, which sets it apart from the broad class of conditions that may or may not have the potential to escalate into a radiological emergency.

It can be a continuous, measurable function that is outside technical specifications, such as elevated PCS temperature or falling reactor coolant level (a symptom).

1.1.25 Offsite All land and water areas outside the owner-controlled area.

1.1.26 Onsite All land and water areas within the owner-controlled area, use of which must be authorized by Entergy Corporation.

1.1.27 Operational Status of an emergency facility, declared by the appropriate facility manager upon determining that the facility is adequately staffed and equipment is setup and available to assume/perform the emergency functions assigned to that facility.

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT PSEP POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Revision TBD Page 11 of 104 TITLE: POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN 1.1.28 Operations Support Center (OSC)

The onsite area in which onsite support personnel can assemble for subsequent assignment to duties in support of emergency operations. Support personnel assigned to the OSC normally consist of Chemistry, Radiation Protection, and repairpersons from I&C, Electrical, and Mechanical Maintenance.

1.1.29 Owner Controlled Area The area surrounding the Plant in which the reactor licensee has the authority to determine all activities including exclusion or removal of persons and property from the area during accident conditions.

1.1.30 Plume Exposure Pathway The path by which a radioactive cloud (plume) can expose the population-at-risk and/or onsite personnel to radiation. The principle exposure sources for this pathway are:

a. Whole body external exposure to gamma radiation from the radioactive plume and from deposited material.
b. Inhalation exposure from the passing radioactive plume.

1.1.31 Population at Risk Those persons for whom protective actions are or would be taken.

1.1.32 Protective Actions Those emergency measures taken for the purpose of preventing or minimizing radiological exposures to individuals that would be likely to occur if the actions were not taken.

1.1.33 Protective Action Guides (PAG)

Projected radiological dose or dose commitment values to individuals in the general population that warrant protective action following a release of radioactive material.

Protective actions would be warranted provided the reduction in individual dose expected to be achieved by carrying out the protective action is not offset by excessive risks to individual safety in taking the protective action.

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT PSEP POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Revision TBD Page 12 of 104 TITLE: POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN 1.1.34 Protected Area The fenced area immediately surrounding the nuclear Plant, access to which is controlled in accordance with the Safeguards Contingency Procedures.

1.1.35 Radiological Emergency An emergency involving radioactive material.

1.1.36 Recovery Actions Those actions taken after the emergency to restore the Plant as nearly as possible to its pre-emergency condition.

1.1.37 Site Area Emergency Events are in process or have occurred which involve an 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 which exceed EPA Protective Action Guideline exposure levels beyond the site boundary.

1.1.38 Emergency Plant Manager The person designated as responsible for all onsite actions during an emergency condition.

1.1.39 State The State of Michigan.

1.1.40 Technical Support Center (TSC)

An area which accommodates personnel which will provide management and technical support to Plant Operations personnel during emergency conditions from a location outside the Control Room.

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT PSEP POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Revision TBD Page 13 of 104 TITLE: POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN 1.1.41 Unusual Event 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.

2.0 SCOPE AND APPLICABILITY 2.1 GENERAL INFORMATION AND SITE DESCRIPTION The Palisades Nuclear Power Plant is owned by Entergy Corporation. An area map showing the location of the facility is provided in Figure 2-1.

The Palisades Nuclear Power Plant (PNP) ceased power operations and is permanently defueled in accordance with 10 CFR 50.82(a)(1)(i) and (ii). On January 4, 2017, Entergy Nuclear Operations (ENO) submitted a certification of permanent cessation of power operations pursuant to 10 CFR 50.82(a)(1)(i). ENO has submitted written certification to the NRC in accordance with 10 CFR 50.82(1)(ii) that meets the requirements of 10 CFR 50.4(b)(9) certifying that fuel has been permanently removed from the reactor vessel. Upon docketing of these certifications, the 10 CFR Part 50 license for PNP no longer authorizes operation of the reactor or emplacement or retention of fuel into the reactor vessel, as specified in 10 CFR 50.82(a)(2).

With irradiated fuel being stored in the Spent Fuel Pool and the Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation (ISFSI), the reactor coolant system and secondary systems have no function related to the storage of the irradiated fuel. Therefore, the postulated accidents involving failure or malfunction of the reactor and reactor coolant system or secondary systems are no longer applicable.

The Palisades Plant is located in Covert Township, Van Buren County, Michigan.

The Plant is bordered to the north by the Van Buren State Park and to the west by Lake Michigan. The south and east are sparsely populated, underdeveloped, or used for farming. Interstate 196 and the Blue Star Highway lie within one mile east of the site. Much of the area around the site is devoted to recreation and tourism, which produces a fluctuating and seasonal population.

Highway access to the Plant is provided from the Blue Star Highway (A-2) via the Plant access road.

2.2 POPULATION DISTRIBUTION AND EVACUATION TIMES

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT PSEP POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Revision TBD Page 14 of 104 TITLE: POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN The area within a 10-mile radius surrounding the Palisades Plant is designated as the plume exposure Emergency Planning Zone (EPZ). A comprehensive population study was prepared in August 2012 by KLD Engineering. The Evacuation Time Estimates for the plume EPZ are adopted as a progeny procedure to Palisades Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan. See PSEP Supp 2, "Evacuation Time Estimates."

2.3 EMERGENCY PLANNING ZONES EPZs are areas designated for which planning is recommended to assure that prompt and effective actions are taken to protect the public in the event of an accident.

Two EPZs have been identified for the purpose of development and implementation of emergency planning. The plume exposure emergency planning zone has a 10 mile radius. Within this zone, shelter and/or evacuation is the immediate protective action to be recommended for the general public. The principal concern with the plume exposure pathway is that of Total Effective Dose Equivalent (TEDE) exposure and/or exposure to the adult thyroid Committed Dose Equivalent (CDE) due to inhalation and ingestion.

The ingestion exposure EPZ extends to a 50-mile radius. Once exceeding the 10-mile radius, the plume exposure pathway is no longer of significant concern.

At this point, the ingestion pathway is of greatest concern.

2.4 PURPOSES AND OBJECTIVES Effective emergency preparedness needs to incorporate not only the emergency response for systems, but must also include response for people. Engineering safety systems at the Plant are designed to ensure that the consequences of a major malfunction will be mitigated prior to any adverse effect to the general public or facility. The basis for emergency planning is to provide human emergency response in much the same way as safety systems do for design.

It is imperative that all plans, programs, and procedures be well coordinated with the Emergency Plan. Only when they are well coordinated can the response to emergencies be initiated in a timely and effective manner.

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT PSEP POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Revision TBD Page 15 of 104 TITLE: POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN 2.4.1 Regulatory Requirements 10 CFR 50, "Domestic Licensing Of Production and Utilization Facilities" Section 50.34, "Contents of Applications; Technical Information", requires that each application for a license to operate a facility include in a Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR), along with other information, the applicant's plans for coping with emergencies, including the items specified in Appendix E, "Emergency Planning and Preparedness for Production and Utilization Facilities," 10 CFR 50. Section 100.3, 10 CFR 100, "Reactor Site Criteria," in the definitions of exclusion area and low population zone, establishes additional criteria for plans to cope with emergencies and serious accidents. 10 CFR 50.47, "Emergency Plans," requires that adequate protective measures can and will be taken in the event of a radiological emergency.

Supplemental guidance has been provided by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) by the following documents:

SUMMARY

OF EMERGENCY PLAN INTERRELATIONSHIPS This Emergency Plan should not, in itself, be considered the sole working document to be used during an emergency. The purpose of the Emergency Plan is to classify emergencies according to their severity, to assign responsibilities for actions, and to clearly outline the most effective course of action required to safeguard the public and Plant personnel in the event of an emergency. Detailed instructions and guidelines for emergency actions are included in other plans, programs, and procedures as described below.

2.5.1 Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan Supplement 1 The "Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan Supplement 1 - EAL Wall Charts" contains the Palisades Emergency Action Levels in a wall chart format. It is part of the Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan. Changes to the supplement require all the same types of reviews and approvals as required for the Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan.

Revisions to the supplement will be tracked by its own revision number, not the PSEP's revision number.

The "Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan Supplement 1 - EAL Wall Charts" will be maintained in the same binder as the Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan.

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT PSEP POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Revision TBD Page 17 of 104 TITLE: POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN 2.5.2 Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan Supplement 2 The Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan Supplement 2 - "Evacuation Time Estimates (Revision 1, August 2012)" contains the Palisades updated Evacuation Time Estimates study (Revision 1, August 2012). It is part of the Post-Shhutdown Emergency Plan. Changes to the supplement require all the same types of reviews and approvals as required for the Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan. Revisions to the supplement will be tracked by its own revision number, not the PSEPs revision number.

The Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan Supplement 2 - "Evacuation Time Estimates" will be maintained in the same binder as the Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan.

2.5.3 Emergency Implementing Procedures Detailed Emergency Implementing Procedures required to implement the plan have been developed. An index of the Emergency Implementing Procedures is included in Appendix D.

Detailed implementing procedures for emergencies considered to be special events, such as civil disturbances, bomb threats, and breaches in security are included as part of the Safeguards Contingency Procedures.

Separate emergency procedures are not provided for activities already covered by Plant or section Operating Procedures (ie, calibration of survey instruments). The plan relies on certain aspects of the Plant's operating procedures, radiation protection procedures, and security procedures, where they are required for clarification.

2.5.4 Related Plans, Programs, and Procedures Several plans, programs, and procedures have been developed to assure the safe operation of the Plant. The Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan and Emergency Implementing Procedures have been written to coordinate these plans with other programs and procedures. During emergency situations, the coordination and utilization of all plans and procedures are essential.

The Safeguards Contingency Procedures have been coordinated with the Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan and Emergency Implementing Procedures to minimize the consequences of an emergency situation. Security procedures contain an explanation of the duties and responsibilities for security personnel in the event of an emergency.

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT PSEP POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Revision TBD Page 18 of 104 TITLE: POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Provisions for radiological control at the Plant have been covered in Radiation Protection Procedures. These procedures establish controls and protective measures to be placed on work being conducted in radiation areas. Inclusive within the area of radiation control are the procedures that Radiation Protection establishes for determining exposure through surveys, analysis, and various other avenues.

The Palisades Nuclear Plant Public Information Policies and Procedures contain the information necessary to establish a flow of emergency information to the public.

The Palisades Fire Protection Plan has been developed to assure the safe operation of the Plant during a fire.

SUMMARY

The Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan establishes the basic steps that will be used to determine the response of the emergency organization for each of four emergency classes. The emergency classes are as follows: Unusual Event, Alert, Site Area Emergency, and General Emergency. The conditions that must exist for the declaration of a specific emergency class are presented in the Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan, Supplement 1 - EAL Wall Charts.

The declaration of each class will lead to specific notification of offsite authorities.

Emergency facilities shall be activated as described in Table 3-1, "Emergency Classifications and the Level of Response by Participating Groups," and staffed as presented in Section 5 of the Palisades Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan. In response to a particular event, certain protective actions may be initiated or certain offsite agencies may be activated. These actions are detailed in Section 6 of the Palisades Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan. Palisades maintains the capability to assess, classify, and declare an emergency condition within 15 minutes after the availability of indications to plant operators that an emergency action level has been exceeded and promptly declares the emergency condition as soon as possible following identification of the appropriate emergency classification level.

For emergencies that result in (1) the release of radioactive materials greater than specified levels, or (2) the degradation of barriers to the release of radioactive materials, assessments of the offsite consequences or the projected offsite consequences shall be made. These assessments will be transmitted to the offsite authorities responsible for taking protective actions on behalf of the general public.

Recommendations to these offsite authorities will be based on the protective actions identified in Table 6-2 from the Palisades Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan.

3.1 POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN STEPS In general, the Post-shutdown Emergency Plan encompasses the following basic steps:

a. Detection of the emergency
b. Classification of the emergency
c. Notification of offsite agencies
d. Activation of the responding organization(s)
e. Assessment of the situation
f. Initiation of protective actions
g. Initiation of corrective actions
h. Aid to affected persons
i. Reentry and recovery

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT PSEP POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Revision TBD Page 23 of 104 TITLE: POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN 3.2 ENTERGY CORPORATION EMERGENCY ORGANIZATION This Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan establishes an organization capable of responding to the complete spectrum of incidents covered by this Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan. Provisions are made for rapid notification of appropriate portions of the response organization, and for expanding the response organization if the situation dictates.

An individual having the authority and responsibility to initiate any emergency actions within the provisions of this Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan, including the exchange of information with authorities responsible for coordinating offsite emergency measures, is onsite at all times. This individual is the Shift Manager until relieved by the Emergency Director.

The operating shift crew is responsible for implementing emergency action(s) in accordance with assigned response functions. Emergency response functions are also assigned to additional Plant staff personnel who are rapidly alerted and mobilized to augment or relieve the operating shift personnel of emergency duties as deemed appropriate by the Emergency Plant Manager, and in accordance with the implementing procedures of this Plan.

In addition, this Plan includes offsite agencies and organizations who have signed letters of agreement with Palisades Nuclear Power Plant (see Appendix A). Their designated response functions include implementation of offsite protective actions, transportation and treatment of personnel requiring medical treatment, control of access to the station, fire-fighting support, radiological sampling and assessment, technical consultation, and testing.

3.3 EMERGENCY CLASSIFICATIONS Emergencies are grouped into four classifications listed below in order of severity:

a. Unusual Event 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.

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT PSEP POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Revision TBD Page 24 of 104 TITLE: POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN

b. Alert 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 security event that involves probable life threatening risk to site personnel or damage to site equipment because of HOSTILE ACTION. Any releases are expected to be limited to small fractions of the EPA Protective Action Guideline exposure levels.
c. Site Area Emergency Events are in process or have occurred which involve an 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 which exceed EPA Protective Action Guideline exposure levels beyond the site boundary.

d. General Emergency 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.

Section 4 from the Palisades Nuclear Plant Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan contains a more detailed discussion of the classifications of emergencies. Table 3-1, "Emergency Classifications and the Level of Response by Participating Groups,"

shows, in column form, the emergency classifications, and the degrees of involvement of onsite and offsite organizations.

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT PSEP POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Revision TBD Page 25 of 104 TITLE: POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN 3.4 EMERGENCY ACTIONS In all instances, when one of the classifications of the above emergencies occurs in the Plant, the Shift Manager is responsible for taking immediate action to safeguard personnel and equipment. Utilizing the Palisades Nuclear Plant Emergency Implementing Procedures, the Shift Manager shall activate the necessary portions of the Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan. The basic considerations for safe operation of the Plant, and for action in the event of an emergency in the Plant, are summarized as follows:

a. In any event, protection of Plant personnel and the public is the highest priority. A range of protective actions to protect onsite personnel during hostile action is provided to ensure the continued ability to perform the functions of the emergency plan. Plant system and equipment protection is secondary.
b. When there is doubt as to the classification of the emergency condition, the more conservative case is considered.
c. The instrumentation is assumed to be providing correct information unless it is clearly identified that an instrument is erroneous or out of service.
d. All alarms are promptly acknowledged, any required response action is taken, and an immediate investigation of the cause that initiated the alarm is made.

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT PSEP POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Revision TBD Page 27 of 104 TITLE: POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN 4.0 POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY CONDITIONS 4.1 EMERGENCY CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM This Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan provides four mutually exclusive classifications covering the postulated spectrum of emergency situations. For each classification, a particular set of immediate actions to be taken is established as described in Section 6, of the Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan. Actions for each of the four mutually exclusive classifications are defined in Emergency Implementing Procedure EI-1, "Emergency Classification and Actions," Attachment 1, "Emergency Actions."

The various classifications of accidents represent a hierarchy of accidents based on potential or actual hazards presented to the general public. Accidents may be classified in a lower category at first and then escalated to another higher classification if the situation deteriorates. Accident classification may be downgraded as conditions improve. The four classes that comprise the Emergency Classification System are:

a. Unusual Event
b. Alert
c. Site Area Emergency
d. General Emergency All emergency measures begin with the notification of the Shift Manager that a situation exists which presents a real or potential hazard. This is followed by assessment and evaluation by the Shift Manager, classification of the emergency, notifications, and activation and/or mobilization of the applicable emergency organizations. Section 6 summarizes the emergency measures to be taken by both the onsite and offsite emergency organizations.

Emergency Action Levels (EALs) are used to describe each of the four emergency classes. These levels are composed of a combination of Plant parameters (such as instrument readings and system status) that can be used to give relatively quick indication to the Plant operating staff of the severity of the accident situation.

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT PSEP POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Revision TBD Page 28 of 104 TITLE: POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN The purpose of the EAL is to provide the earliest possible identification of actual or potential accident situations. In most cases, further assessment action will be conducted both onsite and offsite before actual protective actions are initiated.

EALs associated with radioactive releases are related to the Environmental Protection Agency's Protective Actions Guides (PAG) summarized in EPA 400-R-92-001, "Manual of Protective Action Guides and Protective Actions for Nuclear Incidents." An assessment by the Plant emergency organization along with state support agencies of the potential of reaching or exceeding the PAG will be performed following the declaration of an emergency class.

When EALs are observed in conjunction with Plant or equipment status due to planned maintenance or testing activities, an emergency condition does not exist.

A conservative philosophy for classification shall be used to declare the highest classification for which an EAL has been exceeded. For example, a Site Area Emergency would be declared directly if a Site Area Emergency level is exceeded without having previously been declared in a lower Alert classification.

The Emergency Action Levels are not necessarily all inclusive. The Shift Manager/EOF Emergency Director shall declare an appropriate emergency classification whenever, in their personal judgment, the Plant status warrants such a declaration.

Palisades Emergency Action Levels can be found in the "Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan Supplement 1 - EAL Wall Charts."

4.1.1 Unusual Event The Unusual Event is the least severe of the four emergency classifications. For the purposes of this plan, an Unusual Event is defined as that situation where, "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."

The purpose of the Unusual Event declaration is to:

a. Assure that the first step in any response later found to be necessary has been carried out.
b. Bring the Plant operations staff to a state of readiness.

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT PSEP POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Revision TBD Page 29 of 104 TITLE: POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN

c. Provide systematic handling of Unusual Events information and decision-making.

Guidelines for Plant, State, and local actions are listed in Table 4-1.

An incident shall be classified as an Unusual Event if the event is minor in nature, involves no releases of radioactive material requiring offsite response or monitoring, and presents no immediate hazard to the public. Events in this classification are selected based upon a potential to degenerate to a more severe situation rather than an actual public hazard.

4.1.2 Alert An Alert is defined as that situation where, "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 security event that involves probable life threatening risk to site personnel or damage to site equipment because of HOSTILE ACTION. Any releases are expected to be limited to small fractions of the EPA Protective Action Guideline exposure levels." The Alert class involves relatively minor emergency situations that have a direct effect on the Plant safety-related systems. The Alert shall set into motion personnel onsite and offsite who would be required to perform actions up to and including the evacuation of near-site areas. The Alert class also addresses limited releases of radioactive material and, therefore, might require some assessment actions by the emergency organizations.

The purpose of the Alert declaration is to:

a. Assure that emergency personnel are readily available to respond if the situation becomes more serious or to perform confirmatory radiation monitoring if required.
b. Provide offsite authorities current status information.

Guidelines for Plant, State, and local actions are listed in Table 4-1.

An incident shall be classified as an Alert if there is real or potential limited releases of radioactive material to the environment. A situation shall be classified at the Alert level only if EALs for higher classification have not been exceeded or are not expected to be exceeded in the near term.

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT PSEP POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Revision TBD Page 30 of 104 TITLE: POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN 4.1.3 Site Area Emergency A Site Area Emergency is defined as that situation where, "Events are in process or have occurred which involve an 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 which exceed EPA Protective Action Guideline exposure levels beyond the site boundary.

The purpose of the Site Area Emergency declaration is to:

a. Assure that emergency response facilities are manned.
b. Assure that radiation-monitoring teams are dispatched both onsite and offsite.
c. Assure that personnel required for evacuation of near-site areas are at their duty stations if the situation becomes more serious.
d. Provide consultation with offsite authorities.
e. Provide updates for the public through offsite authorities.

Guidelines for Plant, State, and local actions are listed in Table 4-1. Although immediate protective actions are not automatically required, declaration of a Site Area Emergency shall set into motion all personnel onsite and offsite who would be required to perform actions up to and including the evacuation of near-site areas.

Dispatched radiation monitoring teams will make continuing assessments to provide officials with information to decide protective actions. The Site Area Emergency classification includes accidents that have significant radiation release potential.

Unlike the Unusual Event and Alert classifications of emergencies, the Site Area Emergency classification may involve some radiation exposure to the near-site public. Many of the accidents included in this classification have the potential for degradation to the General Emergency classification. Although the EALs for this classification have been selected at values well below the EPA PAGs, offsite monitoring team reports and continuing assessment actions shall lead to any final decision on protective actions to be taken.

Accidents that have significant potential for the release of radioactive material shall be classified as a Site Area Emergency.

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT PSEP POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Revision TBD Page 31 of 104 TITLE: POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN 4.1.4 General Emergency The General Emergency is the most severe classification of emergency. The General Emergency classification is defined as that situation where, "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."

The purpose of the General Emergency declaration is to:

a. Initiate predetermined protective actions for the public.
b. Provide continuous assessment of information from Palisades Plant, and offsite monitoring groups.
c. Initiate additional measures as indicated by event releases or potential releases.
d. Provide consultation with offsite authorities.
e. Provide updates for the public through offsite authorities.

Guidelines for Plant, State, and local actions are listed in Table 4-1. Some protective actions may be recommended upon declaration of the General Emergency since the lower limits of the EPA PAGs are likely to be exceeded.

Emergency Action Levels (EAL) have been selected so that time should be available to make some confirmatory measurements in the field prior to implementation of the more extensive (i.e., evacuation) protective action. Some of the General Emergency action levels require a dose projection calculation using actual meteorology. This differs from the adverse meteorology assumptions used in the Site Emergency Action Levels in order to remove this built-in conservatism and to preclude declaring a General Emergency when actual conditions do not warrant the higher classification. Declaration of a General Emergency requires a recommendation to the State for protective actions for the local population.

4.2 CLASSIFICATION OF POSTULATED ACCIDENTS The events postulated in Section 14, Palisades Plant Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR), may be categorized into one or more of the four emergency classifications. A complete discussion of these events may be found in the FSAR.

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT PSEP POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Revision TBD Page 38 of 104 TITLE: POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN 5.0 ORGANIZATIONAL CONTROL OF EMERGENCIES Emergency planning must consider the capabilities of the normally present operating staff, augmented by support from other utility personnel and local and distant support. The initial phases of an emergency situation at a permanently shutdown and defueled nuclear power plant will involve a relatively small number of individuals. These individuals must be capable of: (1) determining that an emergency exists, (2) providing initial classification and assessment, and (3) promptly notifying other groups and individuals in the emergency organization.

The Palisades Plant Organization has complete capability, at all times, to perform the detection, classification, and notification functions required in the early phases of an emergency. These capabilities are augmented, as required, by the Palisades Emergency Response Organization (ERO).

This section of the Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan addresses the assignment of personnel and the establishment of responsibilities and authority for the:

a. Palisades Plant Organization
b. Palisades Emergency Response Organization Figure 5-1 shows the interfaces between these organizations, governmental agencies, and the general public.

5.1 PALISADES PLANT ORGANIZATION The Palisades Nuclear Plant shift activities are under the control of the General Manager, Plant Operations. The shift activities at the Plant are conducted by operating crews on twelve-hour shifts. Each twelve-hour shift is responsible for continuous operation of the Plant.

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT PSEP POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Revision TBD Page 63 of 104 TITLE: POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN 6.1.6 Affected Counties: Van Buren County, Berrien County, and Allegan County Emergency responsibilities of County Emergency Management include communication support to the responding county departments, providing warning and notification to the public, and assuring the continuation of vital services during the emergency.

6.2 ASSESSMENT ACTIONS Effective coordination and direction of all portions of the emergency organization require almost continuous accident assessment during the course of the emergency.

Each emergency class will require similar accident assessment methods; however, each classification imposes a different magnitude of assessment effort. In the following steps, the assessment actions to be taken for each emergency classification are outlined.

6.2.1 Assessment Actions for Unusual Events The detection of an Unusual Event shall arise from exceeding a specific Emergency Action Level for this class. Detection of the event will come as a result of alarms, instrument readings, recognition through experience, or any combination thereof.

The continuing assessment actions to be performed for this classification of emergency shall be in accordance with the Emergency Implementing Procedures and shall consist of the normal monitoring of Control Room and other Plant instrumentation and status indication until the situation is resolved. If a fire is the reason for the declaration of an Unusual Event, the Shift Manager will make continuing assessments based on his knowledge and experience on whether offsite firefighting assistance is needed.

6.2.2 Assessment Actions for Alerts When an accident has been classified as an Alert by the Shift Manager, assessment actions shall be performed in accordance with the Emergency Implementing Procedures for an Alert.

These actions include:

a. Accountability of onsite personnel.
b. Staff augmentation, as needed.
c. Increased surveillance of in-plant instrumentation.

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT PSEP POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Revision TBD Page 64 of 104 TITLE: POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN

d. Activation of appropriate emergency facilities.
e. Dispatch of shift personnel, if possible, to the identified problem area for confirmation and visual assessment.
f. Dispatch of onsite Radiation Monitoring Teams to monitor for possible release and to provide confirmation of correct accident classification.
g. If a radiological accident is occurring, surveillance of the in-plant instrumentation is necessary to obtain meteorological and radiological data required for calculating or estimating projected doses. This dose assessment activity shall continue until termination of the emergency in order that the updating of initial assessments may be provided to all concerned offsite agencies, the Shift Manager, and EOF Emergency Director. Emergency Implementing Procedures are provided to aid in a rapid, consistent projection of doses.

6.2.3 Assessment Actions for Site Area Emergencies The assessment actions for the Site Area Emergency classification are similar to the actions for an Alert; however, due to the increased magnitude of the possible release of radioactive material, a significantly larger assessment will occur. The necessary personnel for this assessment effort shall be provided by mobilization of the onsite and offsite emergency organizations.

Specifically:

a. An increased amount of Plant instrumentation shall be monitored.
b. Radiological monitoring efforts shall be increased. Onsite and offsite radiological monitoring teams will be dispatched. In addition to beta-gamma field measurements, change out of environmental thermoluminescent dosimeters (TLD), air sampling, and collection of the environmental media for assessment of radioactive material transport and deposition may also be performed.

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT PSEP POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Revision TBD Page 65 of 104 TITLE: POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN

c. Dose assessment activities will be conducted more frequently with an increased emphasis on dose projections for use as a factor in determining the necessity for protective actions for the public. Radiological (eg, TLDs) and meteorological instrumentation readings shall be used to project the dose rate at predetermined distances from the Plant, and to determine the integrated dose received. In reporting the dose projections to offsite agencies, the dose rate, dose, and the basis for the time used for the dose estimate shall always be provided. Any confirmation of dose rates by offsite Radiation Monitoring Teams shall be reflected in reporting and/or revising the dose estimate information provided to offsite agencies.

Dose projections shall be considered with respect to the Environmental Protection Agency Protective Action Guides (Table 6-1). Reporting of assessments to offsite authorities shall include the relationship of the dose to these guidelines. Emergency Implementing Procedures will be provided for recording all pertinent information.

6.2.4 Assessment Actions for General Emergencies Assessment actions for the General Emergency classification shall be the same as for the Site Area Emergency with some possible shift of emphasis to greater offsite radiation monitoring and dose projections extending to distances farther from the site.

6.2.5 Estimation of Offsite Dose The Emergency Implementing Procedures (reference Emergency Implementing Procedure EI-6, "Offsite Dose Calculation and Recommendations for Protective Actions") contain several methods for calculating offsite dose to population from accidental releases. These methods include:

a. Computer Method - Implements the above method using a personal computer to speed the process.
b. Manual Method - A pencil and paper method for calculating offsite dose using precalculated diffusion factors and a straight line Gaussian methodology.
c. Segmented Gaussian - Variable trajectory Plume model.

The above methods have been developed in cooperation with state agencies and provide methods for rapid, accurate dose estimates.

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT PSEP POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Revision TBD Page 66 of 104 TITLE: POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN 6.2.6 Data Reporting, Recording, and Analysis Specially assigned personnel at all designated emergency centers have the responsibility for collecting, recording, and analyzing data transmitted to them.

Additional support is available from fire departments in nearby Allegan and Berrien Counties through mutual aid agreements. These fire departments are also trained and equipped for rescue work and control of hazardous gas leaks, including chlorine gas.

6.3.2 Repair and Damage Control The Palisades Plant staff is comprised of technically and vocationally trained personnel capable of improvising necessary repair and control measures for correction of an emergency situation. Wherever possible, corrective measures are anticipated and included in emergency and operating procedures.

6.3.3 System Control System design is aimed at automatic corrective actions, such as system isolation, whenever operating parameters become abnormal. Operating procedures are written for manual control of these same situations, should automatic features fail.

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT PSEP POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Revision TBD Page 68 of 104 TITLE: POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN 6.4 PROTECTIVE ACTIONS Protective actions are emergency measures taken during or after an emergency situation that are intended to minimize or eliminate the hazard to the health and safety of the general public and/or Plant personnel. Such actions taken onsite are the responsibility of the Entergy Corporation, while those offsite actions are the responsibility of the State of Michigan and local political jurisdictions. Protective Action Guides for the Environmental Protection Agency and the State of Michigan are shown on Tables 6-1 and 6-2. All visitors to the site protected area shall be either escorted by an employee knowledgeable as to the Emergency Plan response actions or shall receive training on actions required by them during an emergency.

6.4.1 Sheltering, Evacuation, Personnel Accountability During an emergency, the relocation of personnel may be required in order to prevent or minimize exposure to radiation and radioactive materials. The following steps present information on policies applicable to such situations:

a. Plant Site
1. Notification All persons onsite at the time of an Alert, Site Area, or General Emergency shall be notified of the emergency by a two-minute steady siren and an announcement over the public address system in the assembly areas. Notification of an Unusual Event should be over the Plant public address system. For the Alert and above, personnel shall be instructed to report to assembly areas for accountability, monitoring, and possible evacuation. Personnel accountability shall be completed in approximately 30 minutes. Specific assembly areas are designated in the Emergency Implementing Procedures. All personnel shall be trained in the locations of the assembly areas, or be escorted by an employee who is so trained.

2. Site Access Control Provisions for control of access to the Palisades site have been included in the Safeguards Contingency Procedures to take care of personnel entering for business purposes and for those who might inadvertently enter. Access to the exclusion areas of the Plant is controlled by the Plant security force. Offsite support is provided by local and/or state law enforcement personnel.
3. Monitoring of Evacuees A combination of checking electronic dosimeters and questioning of evacuees will be used to initially determine if there were any high external exposures involved in the emergency. For any known or suspected high exposures, the permanent dosimeters will be read as soon as possible and further investigation will be conducted to determine the amount of exposure or necessary actions to be taken.

Monitoring for contamination and internal ingestion at the assembly areas will be accomplished by using portable instrumentation and questioning. Priority for decontamination will be given persons found with the highest levels of contamination. Any persons suspected or known to have ingested radioactivity will be whole-body counted, as soon as conditions permit, to assess their internal exposure.

Decontamination supplies for evacuees shall be available.

4. Egress Routes Three potential routes are available: Plant access road to the east and the beach to the north or south. Unless conditions dictate otherwise, the Plant access road to the east will be the primary evacuation route.

An evacuation procedure shall require a personnel accountability check at the appropriate control point/monitoring station. Security officers shall be dispatched by the Emergency Plant Manager to stop ingress from the access roads and to assist Plant personnel evacuating the site. A control point/monitoring station shall be established along the egress route in an area expected to be outside the path of possible radioactive releases.

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT PSEP POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Revision TBD Page 73 of 104 TITLE: POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN 6.5 AID TO AFFECTED PERSONNEL 6.5.1 Emergency Personnel Exposure Criteria Although an emergency situation transcends the normal requirements for limiting exposure, there are suggested levels of exposure acceptable in emergencies. Even under these conditions, every reasonable effort to minimize exposure must be made and personnel must be provided with appropriate monitoring devices. Three categories of risk versus benefit must be considered:

a. Saving of human life and reduction of injury.
b. Protection of health and safety of the public.
c. Protection of property.

In order to avoid restricting actions that may be necessary to save lives, it shall be left to the judgment of the individual to determine the amount of exposure that he will accept to perform an emergency action that will result in the saving of human life.

Emergency team members are instructed in radiation effects and the risks involved for emergency doses. Basic guidelines provided to emergency team members are the EPA recommendations contained in Table 6-3. These exposures must be authorized by the Emergency Plant Manager based on the recommendation of the TSC Rad Coordinator.

The Radiation Protection Procedures shall be followed. In the event emergency exposure limits are approved, the same administrative methods for dose control shall be used with the higher emergency exposure limits.

Once the emergency condition has been mitigated, steps shall be taken to recover from the incident. All actions from this point shall be preplanned in order to limit exposures. Normal exposure limits will be used, areas will be controlled, and exposure of personnel documented.

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT PSEP POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Revision TBD Page 74 of 104 TITLE: POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN 6.5.2 Decontamination and First Aid Onsite personnel decontamination facilities for emergency conditions are fully equipped with decontamination material.

7.6 ASSESSMENT EQUIPMENT SYSTEMS 7.6.1 Radiation Monitoring System The Radiation Monitoring System measures, indicates, and records the presence and level of radiation, and alerts Plant personnel to abnormal levels of radioactivity, thereby contributing to personnel protection and proper operation of Plant equipment.

The system consists of permanently installed, continuous monitoring devices together with a program and provisions for specific sample collections and laboratory analyses. The system is designed to provide information for use in evaluating the radiological consequences of normal Plant operation, anticipated operational occurrences, and accidents. Control actions are initiated on the required systems when radiation levels exceed predetermined amounts.

These monitoring functions are performed by the following subsystems and programs:

a. Area Radiation Monitoring
b. Liquid Radiation Monitoring
c. Airborne Radiation Monitoring
1. Gas
2. Particulate
3. Iodine

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT PSEP POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Revision TBD Page 85 of 104 TITLE: POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Data from these subsystems are displayed by readouts, annunciators, and recorders located in the Control Room. (Portable airborne and area monitors are capable of being plugged into receptacles throughout the Plant.) Instrumentation power for the Radiation Monitoring System will be supplied from a reliable source.

d. Area Radiation Monitors Area radiation monitors are primarily for the purpose of measuring radiation dose rates for protection of Plant personnel and providing supporting data to the surveillance of Plant radiation levels.

Monitor alarm setpoints depend on the normal background radiation at the detector location and the calculated levels for abnormal conditions. The monitors will operate within the range of normal environmental conditions applicable to their locations.

Monitored points within the Plant are in areas where personnel exposure to radiation is most likely, and at appropriate access control boundaries.

Readouts and alarms are provided both locally and in the Control Room.

e. Airborne Radiation Monitors The radiation monitors located in the gaseous release paths monitor radioactivity with sufficient sensitivity to demonstrate compliance with 10 CFR 20 limits. They also provide sampling capability, ie, removable filters and/or gas sample stop valves. Samples analyzed with laboratory equipment permit evaluation of compliance to more restrictive regulations and provide data required.
f. Liquid Radiation Monitors The monitoring systems consist of fixed detectors that display radiation levels in the Control Room.

Testing and maintenance features, such as remotely operated check sources, flushing connections, and cutoff valves are included for periodic system check and/or calibration. The liquid radiation monitors are designed to ensure that liquid effluent releases are maintained below the DAC values of 10 CFR 20 by the use of alarms and automatic shutoff features.

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT PSEP POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Revision TBD Page 86 of 104 TITLE: POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN 7.6.2 Meteorology Onsite meteorological data is provided by a meteorological tower located in the northeast sector of the site. This system is primarily concerned with providing data for estimating the actual or potential effects of an accidental, airborne release of radioactivity.

The following data is available:

a. Wind direction and speed at 10 and 60 meters.
b. Stability class.

This data is transmitted to the Control Room at 15-minute averages. A remote interrogation capability is available. Details of the system as it applies to emergency offsite dose calculation are provided in Emergency Implementing Procedure EI-6.7, "Plant Site Meteorological System." Details on the system in general are provided in "Palisades Meteorological Monitoring Project Plan."

Backup meteorological data can be obtained through use of Emergency Implementing Procedure EI-6.8, "Backup and Supplemental Meteorology."

Severe weather warnings are provided to the Plant by a private consultant.

8.5 EMERGENCY EQUIPMENT NUCLEAR PERFORMANCE ASSESSMENT DEPARTMENT CONTROLS 8.5.1 Meteorological Monitoring Program The Emergency Preparedness Section controls for the Palisades Plant Meteorological Monitoring Program are defined in Palisades Administrative Procedure 1.14, "Meteorological Monitoring Program."

8.5.2 Dose Assessment Computer Programs The Dose Assessment Computer Programs are in accordance with Procedure P-EN-IT-103, "Nuclear Cyber Security Program."

9.0 RECOVERY In any emergency, the immediate action is directed to limiting the consequences of the incident in a manner that will afford maximum protection of the Plant personnel and the public. Once the immediate corrective and protective actions have established an effective control over the incident situation, the emergency actions will shift into the recovery phase.

A recovery plan, from a practical standpoint, must be flexible enough to adapt to existing, rather than theoretical, conditions. It is not possible to anticipate in advance all of the conditions that may be encountered in an emergency situation; therefore, the Palisades Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan is addressed to general principles that will serve as a guide for developing a flexible plan of action.

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT PSEP POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Revision TBD Page 101 of 104 TITLE: POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN In the period immediately following an incident, initial radiation monitoring functions will involve only gross hazard evaluations and isolation and definition of radiological problem areas. This immediate radiation surveillance activity is intended to provide the basic information for the second stage of reentry and recovery.

9.1 The following is a brief description of actions that will be examined as required prior to authorizing reentry by the emergency staff.

9.1.1 Review available radiation surveillance data. Determine Plant areas potentially affected by radiation and contamination.

9.1.2 Review radiation exposures of personnel to participate in recovery operations.

Determine need for additional personnel.

9.1.3 Review adequacy of radiation survey instrumentation and equipment (type, ranges, number, calibration, etc).

9.1.4 Preplan survey team activities:

a. Areas to be surveyed
b. Anticipated radiation and contamination levels
c. Radiation survey equipment required
d. Shielding requirements and availability
e. Protective clothing and equipment required
f. Access control procedures (issuance of RWP)
g. Exposure control limits and personnel dosimetry required
h. Decontamination requirements
i. Communications required 9.2 The initial reentry into the Plant areas should encompass the following (in order of priority):

9.2.1 Determine initial recovery operations.

9.2.2 Identify hazards or potential hazards associated with the recovery operations.

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT PSEP POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Revision TBD Page 102 of 104 TITLE: POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN 9.2.3 Conduct comprehensive radiation surveillance of Plant facilities and define radiological problem areas.

9.2.4 Isolate and post areas in the Plant with appropriate warning signs and rope barriers, as Radiation Areas, High Radiation Areas, and Contaminated Areas, as appropriate.

9.3 The nature and extent of the emergency situation will determine what recovery operations are required. The Recovery Organization described in Section 5 will be established as directed by the Recovery Manager.

9.3.1 In order for the recovery phase of the emergency to commence, the conditions which caused the incident must no longer exist. It is the responsibility of the EOF Emergency Director to determine that the facility and/or surroundings are safe.

9.3.2 The following criteria must be met before the recovery and reentry phase can begin:

a. The Plant is in a controlled and stable condition,
b. The release of radioactive materials to the environment is under control or has ceased.
c. In-plant radiation levels are stable or decreasing.
d. Fire, flood, etc, is under control or has ceased.
e. At least one level of redundancy in plant systems should be available to prevent reinitiation of the event.
f. Consensus has been reached among the SED, EOF Director, NRC, and the State.

9.4 The initial objectives of the recovery program are the determination of the damage to equipment, the installation of shielding, rope barriers and signs, the application of clearance tags, decontamination, and cleanup as required to place the Plant in an acceptable long-term condition. Other recovery operations will not be initiated until the area affected by the emergency has been defined. Particular attention will be directed toward isolating and tagging out components and systems as required to control or minimize hazards. A systematic investigation will be conducted to determine the equipment damaged and the extent of the damage.

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT PSEP POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN Revision TBD Page 103 of 104 TITLE: POST-SHUTDOWN EMERGENCY PLAN 9.5 Once the initial objectives are completed, a detailed investigation of the accident causes and consequences both to the Plant and to the environment will be conducted. Determination will be made as to the equipment repair work required as well as the need to modify Plant operating procedures. Repair work and approved modifications shall be carried out as authorized. Test programs to confirm fitness for return to service will be developed and executed.

9.6 Recovery operations will be conducted in compliance with normal operational radiation exposure levels as specified in 10 CFR 20. When possible, any necessary releases of radiation during recovery will be planned, controlled, evaluated in advance for radiological impact, and appropriate offsite organizations and agencies informed of the scheduled releases and estimated impact.

9.7 The State EOC will be advised when the Plant deems it safe to begin the reentry phase of the offsite recovery operation. If the Governor has ordered an evacuation, it is legally required for the Governor to officially rescind the order. The Michigan Department of Environmental Quality is responsible for coordinating reentry procedures for the offsite population.

PNP ANALYSIS OF PROPOSED POSTSHUTDOWN ONSHIFT STAFFING I. INTRODUCTION On January 4, 2017, Entergy Nuclear Operations, Inc. (ENO) informed the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) that the Palisades Nuclear Plant (PNP) will permanently cease power operations on October 1, 2018. ENO will supplement the January 4, 2017 letter certifying the cessation date in accordance with 10 CFR 50.82(a)(1)(i) and 10 CFR 50.4(b)(9). Once fuel has been permanently removed from the reactor vessel, ENO will submit a written certification to the NRC, in accordance with 10 CFR 50.82(a)(1)(ii) that meets the requirements of 10 CFR 50.4(b)(9). Upon docketing of these certifications, the 10 CFR Part 50 license for PNP will no longer authorize operation of the reactor or emplacement or retention of fuel into the reactor vessel, as specified in 10 CFR 50.82(a)(2). In the permanently defueled condition, the Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR) credible accidents (postulated accidents) are reduced via the 50.59 process. In order to address the transition from an operating facility to a permanently defueled facility, changes are required to preserve the effectiveness of the PNP Site Emergency Plan (SEP) to properly reflect the conditions of the facility.

This report details the preliminary analysis of the proposed post-shutdown on-shift staffing for PNP, incorporating anticipated changes to the on-shift staffing and postulated accidents to address the post-shutdown and permanently defueled conditions. Specifically, it reassigns some on-shift tasks to align with proposed changes to on-shift staffing and the resulting changes to PNP Emergency Plan Implementing Procedures (EPIPs). This analysis will be updated and formal Time Motion Studies (TMS) will be conducted, as necessary, following development and validation of procedures that address PNPs permanently shut down and defueled conditions.

This analysis evaluates the ability of the proposed post-shutdown minimum on-shift staff to implement all emergency tasks, as applicable to the permanently shut down and defueled conditions.

This analysis satisfies the requirements of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix E Section IV.A.9, which states that nuclear power licensees shall perform a detailed analysis demonstrating that on-shift personnel assigned emergency plan implementation functions are not assigned responsibilities that would prevent the timely performance of their assigned functions as specified in the emergency plan. To support reduced staffing following permanent cessation of power operations and permanent removal of fuel from the reactor vessel, the proposed post-shutdown on-shift staffing was evaluated in conjunction with the postulated accidents that will be applicable in the permanently defueled condition and assumed corresponding changes to procedures. This analysis examined the capability of the proposed post-shutdown minimum staff to perform the actions for the key functional areas for events applicable in the permanently defueled condition until augmenting Emergency Response Organization (ERO) staff arrives in accordance with the PNP SEP.

II. ANALYSIS

SUMMARY

This analysis determined that a proposed post-shutdown on-shift staff of eight (8) (including the required Fire Brigade) can cope with the spectrum of analyzed events, as described in Section IV of this report, until Palisades Nuclear Plant Page 3 Rev. 0

PNP ANALYSIS OF PROPOSED POSTSHUTDOWN ONSHIFT STAFFING augmenting ERO staff arrives. The on-shift staff consists of individuals necessary to support each of the following emergency plan functional areas or tasks:

Emergency Direction and Control Plant Operations and SFP Cooling Fire Fighting (Fire Brigade)

Accident/Dose Assessment Radiation Protection and Chemistry Notification/Communication Access Control and Accountability It is acceptable for certain functions to be assigned to personnel already assigned other functions/tasks. These include Repair and Corrective Action, Rescue Operations, and First Aid.

PNP intends to enter the post-shutdown and permanently defueled condition with a 5-person Fire Brigade.

However, 10 CFR 50.48(f) states, Licensees that have submitted the certifications required under § 50.82(a)(1) shall maintain a fire protection program to address the potential for fires that could cause the release or spread of radioactive materials (i.e., that could result in a radiological hazard). 10 CFR 50.48(f)(1)(ii) requires the plant to rapidly detect, control, and extinguish fires that do occur. The NRC has provided guidance in Regulatory Guide 1.191, Fire protection Program for Nuclear Plants During Decommissioning and Permanent Shutdown.

Subsection 4.3.4 Onsite Fire Brigade and Offsite Fire Emergency Response, provides guidance with regards to maintenance of a fire brigade during the post-shutdown period. The following factors should be considered in determining the manual firefighting capability:

The magnitude and complexity of potential fires in and around plant areas where radioactive materials or contamination are present The availability of onsite staffing for a fire brigade at any time.

The availability of offsite emergency services, the capability of their staff and equipment, the response time, the staffs training, and access to the plant.

The compatibility of the plants fire system connections and fittings with the fire apparatus and equipment of the offsite responders.

Considering the guidance in RG 1.191, PNP could elect to evaluate the possibility of making changes to the fire protection program, considering system abandonments and the reduction of hazards. This analysis could potentially include an evaluation of the feasibility of a smaller fire brigade. However, this analysis of proposed post-shutdown on-shift staffing considers the current 5-person fire brigade.

Palisades Nuclear Plant Page 4 Rev. 0

PNP ANALYSIS OF PROPOSED POSTSHUTDOWN ONSHIFT STAFFING A. Emergency Plan Minimum Staffing Per 10 CFR 50.54(q)(1)(iii), Emergency planning function means a capability or resource necessary to prepare for and respond to a radiological emergency, as set forth in the elements of section IV of Appendix E and, for nuclear power reactor licensees, the planning standards of § 50.47(b).

Only personnel proposed to be on-shift are credited in this analysis. This proposed staffing consists of a Shift Manager; two Non-Certified Operators; and one Radiation Protection Technician. An individual qualified as a CFH will supervise fuel handling operations in the permanently shut down and defueled condition. Shift Managers will be qualified as CFHs. The Shift Manager requires additional qualification beyond the CFH training. Command and Control will remain with the Shift Manager, regardless of location.

Additionally, four additional Fire Brigade positions and shift Security personnel are assigned. The on-shift staffing utilized for this analysis was defined with the following considerations:

The Shift Manager performs as Emergency Director until properly relieved by a qualified position.

After being relieved by another Command and Control position, the Shift Manager will provide assistance and direction to the Control Room staff as necessary.

Non-Certified Operator duties include providing technical support for plant systems, providing input on repair and corrective actions, and notifications as directed by the Shift Manager. These notifications include the following: 1) required notifications to the states and counties; 2) required notifications to the NRC; and 3) notifications to the Emergency Response Organization. A Non-Certified Operator will also serve as the Fire Brigade Leader in compliance with the PNP fire protection program implementation with requisite plant knowledge to fill this role.

Non-Certified Operator duties include making repairs and corrective actions on plant equipment until augmented plant maintenance staff arrives, participating as an active member of the Fire Brigade, or as Fire Brigade Leader when assigned by the Shift Manager.

Shift Radiation Protection (RP) Technician duties include conducting radiological accident assessment and support, offsite dose assessment as requested by the Shift Manager, onsite in plant surveys, and chemistry and radiochemistry analysis.

The proposed Fire Brigade minimum complement is 5, consisting of a Non-Certified Operator (Fire Brigade Leader) and four (4) other Fire Brigade qualified staff members assigned other functions.

The following table contains the proposed post-shutdown on-shift positions expected to be in place following shutdown and permanent removal of fuel from the reactor vessel.

This analysis will be updated and formal TMSs will be conducted, as necessary, following development and validation of procedures that address PNPs permanently shutdown and defueled conditions to verify the proposed post-shutdown on-shift staffing is appropriate.

Use of the titles, CFH and Non-Certified Operator, are dependent upon NRC approval of proposed changes to Technical Specifications.

Individuals qualified as CFHs will supervise fuel handling operations in the permanently defueled condition. Shift Managers will be qualified as CFHs. The Shift Manager requires additional qualification beyond the CFH training. Non-Certified Operators will perform duties typically associated with those formerly performed by Non-Licensed Nuclear Plant Operators, such as manipulation and monitoring of plant equipment.

2 The Radiation Protection Technician is assigned Accident/Dose Assessment responsibilities in the Fuel Handling Accident analyses (Analyses #2 and #5). However, the Shift Manager and Non-Certified Operators are trained and qualified to perform accident/dose assessment and could be perform the task at the direction of the Shift Manager. There are no Accident/Dose Assessment tasks identified as being required during the remaining analyses.

3 The Fire Brigade consists of a minimum of 5 responders, the Fire Brigade Leader and a minimum of four (4) trained and qualified Fire Brigade Members. These positions do not have any actions or tasks that would conflict with Fire Brigade responsibilities in the events analyzed. The on-shift member is available to support the Shift Manager, where qualified, in non-fire events.

Palisades Nuclear Plant Page 6 Rev. 0

PNP ANALYSIS OF PROPOSED POSTSHUTDOWN ONSHIFT STAFFING B. Other Commitments to Shift Staffing None C. Staffing Exceptions and Time Motion Studies (TMS)

1. No chemistry job tasks were noted as being required within the first 90 minutes of any of the analyzed events. Because the Chemistry Technician was not identified as having any specific Chemistry/Radiochemistry-related emergency tasks, and because the on-shift Radiation Protection Technician will be trained to perform sampling and analysis, the Chemistry Technician position is unnecessary and is not included in the proposed post-shutdown on-shift staffing complement.
2. During fuel movement, additional Operations and Radiation Protection personnel that are not part of the on-shift staff will be on site that, were a fuel handling accident to occur, will be able to respond to the event. Consequently, there are an adequate number of qualified personnel to perform plant surveys and dose assessment in the event of a fuel handling accident as discussed in Events 2 and 5. The task of accident/dose assessment will be performed as directed by the Shift Manager. It is acceptable to assign the Radiation Protection Technician the emergency plan function of dose assessment. No further analysis or TMS is required.
3. Because PNP will no longer be authorized to operate the reactor or place fuel into the reactor vessel, the Shift Engineer/Shift Technical Advisor position is unnecessary and is not included in the proposed post-shutdown on-shift staffing complement.
4. Because PNP will no longer be authorized to operate the reactor or place fuel into the reactor vessel, the Safe Shutdown (SSD) task is not necessary and is not considered in this analysis.
5. Because of the reduced actions necessary to mitigate an emergency in the permanently shut down and defueled condition and the minimal actions of the Control Room positions in this condition, no Licensed Nuclear Control Operator job tasks were noted as being required for any of the analyzed events. Because the Licensed Nuclear Control Operators were not identified as having any specific emergency tasks during the scenarios evaluated for this analysis, the position is not included in the proposed post-shutdown on-shift staffing complement.
6. The Shift Manager is assigned the responsibility to make some site specific event notifications such as to the Duty Plant Manager, Operations Manager, and Resident Inspector. These notifications by phone are considered communications that are approximately one minute in length and are deemed acceptable due to the short duration of the notifications. Additionally, these notifications are collectively evaluated in conjunction with other Shift Manager duties and responsibilities during Operations simulator training evaluations and Emergency Plan drills and are not deemed as impacting the Shift Managers ability to maintain oversight of the event or perform other required emergency plan tasks. Line 14 of Table 5 contained in Section VII of this Palisades Nuclear Plant Page 7 Rev. 0

PNP ANALYSIS OF PROPOSED POSTSHUTDOWN ONSHIFT STAFFING report does not reflect the performance of these short duration notifications. No further analysis or TMS is required.

7. A TMS was performed to verify the capability of the Non-Certified Operator to perform the Notification/Communication responsibilities assigned in each analysis. The PNP process for completing state and local emergency notification forms and performing the off-site notifications is automated and requires minimal manual actions. A TMS was conducted and demonstrated that these tasks could be performed by the on-shift Non-Certified Operator without impacting the ability of the Non-Certified Operator to remain in role providing support and oversight during the emergency. The TMS demonstrated the Notification/Communication responsibilities could be performed individually or in series without impacting the Non-Certified Operator function. The results are documented in Section VIII of this analysis.

The TMS is considered bounding for all scenarios considered in this analysis and demonstrated the Notification/Communication responsibilities could be performed individually or in series without impacting the Non-Certified Operator function. The results are documented in Section VIII of this analysis.

8. Station staff are required to maintain continuous communications with the notification source during an aircraft threat in accordance with 10 CFR 50.54(hh) and Reg. Guide 1.214. There are no specific qualifications required to perform this task and the function is not required to be assigned in advance. The analysis of this event identified there are sufficient personnel on-shift to perform this task during the event. No further analysis or TMS is required.
9. The Shift Manager is assigned the task of notifying the off-shift ERO of the emergency. A TMS was conducted during development of the initial Palisades Nuclear Station On-Shift Staffing Analysis Report to determine if the Shift Manager could perform the task of notifying the ERO of the emergency while continuing to maintain emergency direction and control. The TMS demonstrated the Shift Manager was able to maintain Emergency Direction and Control during the approximate 2 minutes it took to notify the ERO. Additionally, the task of ERO notification is routinely evaluated in conjunction with other Shift Manager duties and responsibilities during Operations simulator training evaluations and Emergency Plan drills. No further analysis or TMS is required.
10. NRC event notifications required due to the declaration of an Emergency Classification in accordance with 10 CFR 50.72 is made verbally using the Emergency Notification System. A written event notification form is not generated by on-shift staff for this notification. Formal written notifications to the NRC as may be required by 10 CFR 50.72 resulting from any of the analyzed events may be generated by the augmented staff. The task of completing the NRC event notification form is therefore not included as an on-shift task requiring evaluation as part of this staffing analysis.

PNP ANALYSIS OF PROPOSED POSTSHUTDOWN ONSHIFT STAFFING D. Emergency Plan Tasks Not Analyzed

1. Repair and Corrective Action - Per the guidance of NUREG-0654, Table B-1, repair and corrective action tasks may be performed by shift personnel assigned other functions. Repair and corrective action is defined as:

An action that can be performed promptly to restore a non-functional component to functional status (e.g., resetting a breaker), or to place a component in a desired configuration (e.g.,

open a valve), and which does not require work planning or implementation of lockout/tagout controls to complete.

The analysis included a review of repair and corrective action tasks. For the purpose of this analysis, the tasks were considered to fall into two broad categories:

Unplanned/unexpected actions that address equipment failures. These actions are contingent in nature and cannot be specified in advance.

Planned/expected actions performed in support of operating procedure implementation, including severe accident management guidelines.

Non-Certified Operators are trained to perform the actions associated with this functional area.

Actions (e.g., reset breakers, valve manipulation) directed by the Shift Manager to mitigate the event per procedures were performed by the Non-Certified Operators in this analysis. Repair and Corrective Action is an acceptable collateral duty and was not analyzed.

2. Rescue Operations and First Aid: The analysis also included a review of rescue operations and first aid response although neither task was required during the evaluated scenarios. Per the guidance of NUREG-0654, Table B-1, rescue operations and first aid may be performed by shift personnel assigned other functions. The on-shift Radiation Projection staff is trained and available to perform first aid and the site Fire Brigade staff are trained and available to perform rescue operations if required. First aid and rescue operations are acceptable collateral duties .

III. ANALYSIS PROCESS The initial staffing analysis report, Rev. 0, was conducted by a joint team of corporate Emergency Preparedness (EP) personnel and station personnel from the Operations, Training, Licensing, Radiation Protection, Chemistry and Emergency Preparedness (EP) departments. Additionally, members of the Security staff provided input to the analysis. Revision 1 of the initial report was developed based on input, reviews and concurrence from station personnel from the same departments as those participating in the original analysis. The review process for the administrative changes included in Revisions 2, 3, and 4 was limited to an independent peer review and final review and concurrence by the PNP EP Manager.

The current analysis was developed by reviewing each scenario from Revision 4 to determine its applicability in a permanently shut down and defueled condition and what plant actions and emergency plan implementation Palisades Nuclear Plant Page 9 Rev. 0

PNP ANALYSIS OF PROPOSED POSTSHUTDOWN ONSHIFT STAFFING actions were required based on plant procedures prior to staff augmentation. These actions were then compared to the proposed post-shutdown on-shift staff positions expected to be in place following shutdown and permanent removal of fuel from the reactor vessel, ensuring that no actions were assigned to staff members that conflicted with either their proposed emergency plan role or operational role as appropriate. In cases where multiple tasks were assigned to an individual in their role, an evaluation of the timing of the tasks was conducted to ensure that they could be performed by the individual in series within any specified time requirements.

The results of the analysis for each of the scenarios are included in Section VII, APPENDIX B - ON-SHIFT STAFFING ANALYSIS. Note that NSIR DPR-ISG-01 states that only Design Basis Accidents (DBA) which would result in an emergency declaration should be evaluated in the staffing assessment. In a permanently shut down and defueled condition FSAR Chapter 14 will be revised to eliminate the DBAs that will not be applicable in the permanently defueled condition.

IV. ACCIDENT SCENARIOS A. Accident Selection

1. The scenarios were chosen using the guidance of NSIR/DPR-ISG-01, based on the applicability in a permanently shut down and defueled condition. The evaluation considered the station DBAs described in the FSAR along with additional scenarios specified by the guidance documents. The following scenarios were considered for inclusion in this analysis:
1. Design Basis Threat (DBT) ground assault
2. DBA Fuel Handling Accident (FHA)
3. Aircraft Probable Threat as described in 10 CFR 50.54(hh)
4. Fire requiring evacuation of the Control Room and control of Spent Fuel Pool cooling
5. General Emergency with Radioactive Release and PAR
6. Station Blackout (SBO) as described in ISG-01
7. DBA Cask drop in the SFP B. Accident Scenarios included in the Analysis
1. Design Basis Threat The event evaluated for this analysis assumes a land based threat that is neutralized immediately when inside the protected area fence, no significant damage to equipment or systems that require corrective actions before the ERO is staffed, no radiological release, and no fire that requires firefighting response before the ERO is staffed.

Palisades Nuclear Plant Page 10 Rev. 0

PNP ANALYSIS OF PROPOSED POSTSHUTDOWN ONSHIFT STAFFING

2. Fuel Handling Accident (FHA)

The postulated design basis accident that will remain applicable to PNP in its permanently shut down and defueled condition is the FHA. This accident analysis assumes the drop of a spent fuel assembly onto the spent fuel racks within the SFP resulting in breaking the fuel rods.

3. Aircraft Probable Threat (50.54(hh))

Notification is received from the NRC that a probable aircraft threat exists (>5 minutes, <30 minutes).

4. Fire requiring evacuation of the Control Room and control of spent fuel pool (SFP) cooling A fire occurs requiring the evacuation of the Control Room and procedures implemented to control SFP cooling from a remote location.
5. General Emergency with Radioactive Release and PAR The FHA assumes the drop of a spent fuel assembly onto the spent fuel racks within the SFP resulting in breaking the fuel rods. A General Emergency is declared when the Shift Manager is given a dose assessment update that projects >1 Rem TEDE dose at the site boundary.

C. Accident Scenarios not included in the Analysis

1. Station Blackout ISG-01 provides guidance associated with the staffing analysis for a Station Blackout (SBO). ISG-01 states, in part:

Station blackouts are beyond the plants design basis and may not need to be addressed in the staffing analysis. The blackout coping analyses performed by licensees pursuant to 10 CFR 50.63 establish blackout coping times that exceed the required on-shift staff augmentation time. Also, since the control room fire scenario leading to evacuation and remote shutdown may adequately address the considerations involved with an Appendix R safe shutdown fire, licensees may not need to consider this scenario in the staffing analysis.

10 CFR 50.63(a)(1) states, in part:

Each light-water-cooled nuclear power plant licensed to operate under this part, each light-water-cooled nuclear power plant licensed under subpart C of 10 CFR part 52 after the Commission makes the finding under § 52.103(g) of this chapter, and each design for a light-water-cooled nuclear power plant approved under a standard design approval, standard design certification, and manufacturing license under part 52 of this chapter must be able to withstand for a specified duration and recover from a station blackout as defined in § 50.2.

Upon docketing of the certification of permanent removal of fuel in accordance with 10 CFR 50.82(a)(1)(ii), per 10 CFR 50.82(a)(2), the Part 50 license will no longer authorize operation of Palisades Nuclear Plant Page 11 Rev. 0

PNP ANALYSIS OF PROPOSED POSTSHUTDOWN ONSHIFT STAFFING the reactor or emplacement of fuel in the reactor vessel. PNP will no longer be a nuclear power plant licensed to operate under 10 CFR Part 50 and 10 CFR 50.63 will no longer be applicable.

The SBO scenario is no longer considered an appropriate gauge by which to measure whether an event presents on-shift staff with responsibilities that would prevent the timely performance of assigned functions in the E-Plan. Therefore, this scenario is not considered in this analysis.

2. Dropped Cask as Described in FSAR 14.11 Analyzed dropped cask events were identified as events that would only occur with the availability of additional station staff above and beyond those represented by station minimum staff and are outside the bounds of this analysis. Additionally, it was determined that no emergency declaration would be expected for this event.

V. GENERAL ASSUMPTIONS AND LIMITATIONS A. Notes and Assumptions applicable to all accidents in PNP Staffing Analysis:

1. The RP and Chemistry tasks reviewed were those directed by the Shift Manager to support actions in Operations procedures for Off-Normal Procedures (ONP), Emergency operating Procedures (EOP), and Emergency Plan Implementing Procedures (EI). Any additional tasks directed by the Technical Support Center (TSC), Operations Support Center (OSC), or Emergency Operations Facility (EOF) procedures were not reviewed.
2. PNP has 60 minute emergency responders when augmenting while the ERO is offsite. This analysis was conducted assuming a 90 minute response of the augmented ERO. There were no specific emergency response tasks assigned to the augmented ERO prior to the 90 minute response.
3. There are no time critical RP or Chemistry tasks and task performance is directed and prioritized by the Shift Manager. The time RP is directed to perform a task and the amount of time taken to complete tasks are estimated. No Chemistry samples are required by Tech Specs within the 90 minute period after a declaration. Because the Shift Manager directs when the tasks are performed, there are no overlapping RP or chemistry tasks.

B. Additional Assumptions

1. Response time used for this analysis was the maximum acceptable number of minutes elapsed between emergency declaration and the augmented ERO position holder at a location necessary to relieve an on-shift position of the emergency response task. As noted above, this analysis assumed a 90 minute augmentation time although the times noted in the Table 1 accident analysis tables reflects the PNP SEP required staffing time of 60 minutes.
2. On-shift personnel complement was based on the proposed post-shutdown on-shift positions expected to be in place following shutdown and permanent removal of fuel from the reactor vessel.

Palisades Nuclear Plant Page 12 Rev. 0

PNP ANALYSIS OF PROPOSED POSTSHUTDOWN ONSHIFT STAFFING

3. Although the temporary absence of a position may be allowed by Tech Specs, the analysis was performed assuming that all required on-shift positions are filled.
4. Each analyzed event occurred during off-normal work hours where the ERO was offsite and all required minimum on-shift positions were filled.
5. On-shift personnel reported to their assigned response locations within timeframes sufficient to allow for performance of assigned actions.
6. On-shift staff had necessary Radiation Worker qualifications to obtain normal dosimetry and enter the radiological control area (RCA) (but not locked high or very high radiation areas) without the aid of an RP technician.
7. Personnel assigned plant operations met the requirements and guidance (analyzed through other programs such as operator training) and were not evaluated as part of this assessment unless a role/function/task from another major response area was assigned as a collateral duty.
8. In-plant (manual) safety related operator actions to manipulate components and equipment from locations outside the control room to achieve and maintain SFP cooling was done by a member of the on-shift staff as defined in the units Tech Specs.
9. Fire brigade (FB) staff performance is analyzed through other station programs (e.g., fire drills) and was not evaluated as part of this assessment unless a role/function/task from another major response area was assigned as a collateral duty.
10. Security was not evaluated unless a role or function from another major response area was assigned as a collateral duty.
11. Communications, briefings, and peer checks are acceptable collateral duties.
12. All on-shift staff positions were evaluated, even if they had no known collateral duties, to ensure they can perform the tasks assigned to them. [Ref NSIR/DPR-ISG-01]
13. The analysis specified the resources available to perform Repair and Corrective Actions and Rescue Operations and First Aid but these may be assigned as collateral duty to a designated on-shift responder.
14. For assessment purposes, NRC notifications were treated as a continuous action per 10CFR50.72(c)(3) and 73.71(b)(1). This means once the initial NRC communications are established, the NRC will request an open line be maintained with the NRC Operations Center.
15. DBA (postulated accident, Condition IV event, or limiting fault) is considered as Unanticipated occurrences that are postulated for accident analysis purposes but not expected to occur during the life of the plant. A postulated accident could result in sufficient damage to preclude resumption of plant operation. As a result, a greater number and variety of actions would need to be implemented by plant personnel.

Palisades Nuclear Plant Page 13 Rev. 0

PNP ANALYSIS OF PROPOSED POSTSHUTDOWN ONSHIFT STAFFING

16. DBT assumed a hostile force breached the protected area fence but was neutralized with no adverse consequences to plant safety. Damage inflicted on plant systems, structures and components was not sufficient to interrupt SFP cooling or cause a radiological release. There was no fire significant enough to warrant firefighting efforts prior to arrival of offsite resources and/or the augmented ERO.
17. The analysis used DBA analysis assumptions, inputs, timing of events, plant protective response, and specified manual operator actions and their timing, as documented in the FSAR.
18. In cases where a DBA analysis included a radiological release, and the starting point of the release was not clearly defined, the staffing analysis assumed that the release began 15-minutes after the initiating event.

PNP ANALYSIS OF PROPOSED POSTSHUTDOWN ONSHIFT STAFFING VII. APPENDIX B - ON-SHIFT STAFFING ANALYSIS A. Accident Analysis #1 - Design Basis Threat

1. Accident Summary Land and/or waterborne HOSTILE ACTION directed against the Protected Area by a HOSTILE FORCE. Assume adversary characteristics defined by the Design Basis Threat (DBT).

This analysis concluded that sufficient staff was available to simultaneously implement both the Emergency Plan and the Security Plan. The conclusion that sufficient staff was available to implement the Security Plan was based on Security staff personnel not being assigned collateral duties that would prevent the timely performance of their assigned functions. As noted in the analysis assumptions detailed in Section V.B. 10 of this report, the Security organization is assumed to be able to satisfactorily perform all tasks related to Site and Protected Area Access Controls under all event or accident conditions.

2. Accident Specific Assumptions Made The PNP DBT for this analysis assumes a land based threat although a waterborne threat as also considered to determine if it was a more manpower limiting event. This analysis identified that a change to the mode of attack did not impact the staffing analysis or identify the assignment of any additional collateral duties for on-shift personnel which would prevent the timely performance of their assigned functions as specified in the Emergency Plan.

This event assumes the threat is neutralized immediately when inside the protected area fence, no significant damage to equipment or systems that require corrective actions before the ERO is staffed, no radiological release, and no fire that requires firefighting response before the ERO is staffed.

Assume Spent Fuel Pool Temperature of 125ºF.

Security notifies the Shift Manager of condition of hostile action occurring within the protected area (Security code RED)

Assume all non-security staff is located inside the protected area at their normal work station when the event occurs.

Assume all systems function and the spent fuel remains covered. No fuel damage and no release.

PNP ANALYSIS OF PROPOSED POST SHUTDOWN ONSHIFT STAFFING E. Accident Analysis #5 -General Emergency with Radioactive Release and PAR

1. Accident Summary (Assumed for Staffing Analysis Purpose)

The FHA assumes the drop of a spent fuel assembly onto the spent fuel racks within the SFP resulting in breaking the fuel rods.

A General Emergency is declared when the Shift Manager is given a dose assessment update that projects >1 Rem TEDE dose at the site boundary.

2. Accident Specific Assumptions Made The FSAR does not contain detailed radiological conditions or release rates to determine an EAL classification. This analysis, therefore, assumed a General Emergency declaration based on area radiation monitors reaching levels to prompt an emergency declaration.

Additional plant personnel, including Operations, Chemistry, and Radiation Protection Specialists, would be on-site during fuel assembly movement. The presence of additional plant personnel would free the on-shift RP Technician to perform dose assessment.

PNP ANALYSIS OF PROPOSED POST SHUTDOWN ONSHIFT STAFFING PURPOSE:

Perform a Time Motion S tudy to evaluate wheth er the performance of a ctions assigned to the No n-Certified Operator #1 are acceptable task overlaps to the primary emergency plan function of event mitigation.

This analysis is considered bounding for all events.

NOTE:

Times for the activities performed are based o n operating experience (e.g., drills, real events, etc.) and/or informed judgment with consideration given to the limited actions in a permanently shut down and defueled condition. Validation of actual times will be performed with updated procedures.

CONCLUSION:

The Time Motion Study d emonstrated the Non-Certified Operator could perform the tasks of completing State, local and NRC notifications successfully, individually or in series, without impacting the ability of the Non-Certified Operator to remain in role providing support to the Shift Manager during the emergency.

LOCATION:

The response to this event was determined by conducting a discussion of the event with the applicable department personnel.

Palisades Nuclear Plant Post-Shutdown Emergency Plan

Dear Mr. Malone,

We appreciated the invitation to learn more about the Palisades Post-Shutdown Plan License Amendment Request (LAR) and participate in discussion regarding this LAR on June 6, 2017.

Based upon all conversations about this Plan and LAR, leading up to and during the June 6 meeting, we understand the proposed changes. We see no indication that these changes would impact our ability to effectively implement our FEMA-approved REP plans nor do we see any evidence that the safety of the public in Berrien County is negatively affected by this proposed plan.

We will commit any requisite resources needed when it becomes appropriate, for any validation drills or exercises that are scheduled and we will continue to support the NRC and FEMA in executing their respective radiological preparedness missions during the decommissioning process.

We thank you again for explaining the proposed plan and allowing for an open discussion on the proposed changes to the E-Plan. Feel free to contact me if you have any future questions or needs at (269) 983-7111 ext. 4916.

Respectfully, Capt. Rockey Adams Emergency Management Coordinator, Berrien County Sheriffs Office Emergency Management and Homeland Security Division
