SUBJECT:
MEETING ON EMERGENCY PLAN CHANGES BEING CONSIDERED BY l LICENSEE FOR GRAND GULF NUCLEAR STATION, UNIT 1 (TAC NO. MA0651) 4 A meeting was held on Friday, January 23,1998, between the Nuclear Regulatory Commissien (NRC) staff and the licensee to discuss Emergency Plan (EP) changes being considered by the licensee. The meeting was held at the request of the licensee to solicit staff comments on the information that the staff would need to conduct its review of EP changes to minimize the staff's review time. Because the licensee has not submitted the plan change to the staff, the licensee agreed to have the TAC Number MA0651 taken out to document the review of the changes by the staff, including this meeting. The notice for the meeting was issued on January 12,1998.
Attachment 1 is the list of attendees, Attachment 2 is the agenda for the meet'q, and i Attachment 3 is information provided by the licensee at the meeting in its handout. The staff did not hand out any inforitation at the meeting.
MEETING
SUMMARY
The agenda for the meeting is Attachment 2.
The outline of the licensee's presentation is pages 2 to 5 of Attachment 3. The reasons for the EP changes being considered by the licensee are to elimina'e confusion in the plan, lessen the burdens on the licensee to administer the plan, and expand the pofOitial pool of site individual that could respond to an emergency at GGNS. The licensee statedhat its pnilosophy in considering the proposed EP changes were to focus on accomplishing tasks during emergencies instead of counting individuals responding to the emergency and to provide individuals on-shift to meet critical tasks during an emergency.
The EP changes being considered are shown in the marked up pages of Table 5-1, " Shift Staffing And Augmentation Capabilities," of the EP (pages 10 through 12 of Attachment 3). k Pages 13 through 22 of Attachment 3 show the same EP changes in the format used by the staff staff in the improved Technical Specifications ccnversion: changes are Administrative cilanges (A), Relocated requirements (R), More restrictive requirements (M), and Less restrictive n(i requirements (L). The licensee stated that the more restrictive requirements and the less restrictive requirements must be reviewed together.
Pages 23 through 26 of Attachtnent 3 show markups of pages from the Updated Final Safety Analysis Report for GGNS that (se associated with the changes being considered by the licenses.

* O The NRC staff stated that it understood the licensee's reasons for considering the EP changes described in Attachment 3. It stated that there was nothing identified on pages 10 through 12 of Attachment 3 that was obviously in violation of the regulations on emergency preparedness and the staff would begin its review once the licensee submitted its request. The schedule of the staff's review would be determined at the time the submittal was received, and be based on the available resources and the other reviews being conducted. To minimize review l time, the licensee must clearly identify where individuals may be expected to share tasks listed in l Table 5-1 and provide the justification for that sharing. The staff recommended that the licensee I use the same format that the licensee presented on Table 5-1 in Attachment 2 of the licensee's letter of September 5,1997. The licensee agreed to consider using that format. I The NRC staff stated that the licensee needed to clearly explain and justify how individuals who have more than one task, listed in Table 5-1, assigned to them could meet the responsibilities of that task in the licensee response to emergencies. There was also the need to provide the technical basis to justify the change from a 60-minute response in Table 5-1 to the 120-minute response being considered by the licensee.
There was no decision by the staff on any the EP changes being considered by the licensee and discussed in the meeting. Any decisions and conclusions by the staff on these changes will be provided by the staff when the licensee formally submits these changes in accordance with 10 CFR 50.54(f) and 10 CFR 50.4. The licensee did not have a date that it expected to submit its EP changes to the staff.
The meeting was closed.

GRAND GULF NUCLEAR PLANT EMERGENCY PROPOSED PLAN CHANGE CHANGE CATEGORIES Adm!nistrative Changes (A) These changes are editorialin nature or involve the reorganization, reformatting, or rewording of requirements without aNecting technical content of the Emergency Plan and are meant to enhance reader understanding. Relocated Requirements (R) These changes are relocated within the body of the Emergency Plan. No change is being made to the technical content of the words arid the function or requirement is preserved. More Restrictive Requirements (M) These changes are more conservative than the existing Emergency Plan and W in - additional restrictions beyond those that cunently exist in the Emergency Plan. The more restrictive requirements are discussed individually in the Justification for Change sechon of this evaluation. Less Restrictive Requirement (L) These changes could be viewed as a decrease in eNoctiveness of the plan as outlined in 10CFR50.54(q) and therefore require NRC review and approval. These changes require justification and technical basis supporting the conclusion that the standards of 10CFR50.47(b) and the requirements of Appendix E to 10CFR50 continue to be met. These changes are more than likely those that have been previously accepted by the NRC at other plants.
PROPOSED CHANGE TYPE JUSTIFICATION FOR CHANGE Combining offsite, onsite, and inplant L1 e HP should be expected to perform surveys as a new Emergency Task under the alltypes ofsurveys onshiA Major Functional Area of Radiation regardless of type. Protection. Also added words stating that e Onsite and offsite surveys have I surveys will only be performed on as same purpose which is to support needed basis offsite dose assessment.
- Close proximity ofonsite and offsite roads surrounding the unit allows combination of the onsite and offsite survey functions.
- Surveys will be performed when there is a need such as lack of plant data. Maximization of the use of inplant radiological monitoring
, instruments is ALARA and consistent with 10CFR20 and other NRC guidance documents.
- Same logic requiring the capability to perform the offsite dose assessment function is being used to e
combine these fuh Staff has stated that offsite T notifications and protective ai: tion recommendations should be based on plant conditions and should not be delayed bec.ause offsite assessment has not been performed. Offsite dose assessment can be addressed in follow-up notifications. Since offsite/onsite surveys are performed to support offsite dose assessment function, the delay allowed for offsite dose assessment should also be applied to these surveys since initial PARS may be based on plant conditions and not offsite dose assessments or surveys. e The capability to provide offsite/onsite surveys onshiA is needed tojustify increased augmentation time (L3).
PRaPOSED CHANGE TYPE JUSTIFICATION FOR CHANGE Note (g) added which allows being below L2 e Allowed by cuneet Technical minimum mansing levels due to unexpected Specifications. absences for up to 120 minutes e Addresses an issue that is currently not in the E . .ay Plan, but could be a point ofconfusion in cunent plan.
* - Conservatively classified as Less Restrictive requirement: could be considered Administrative.
Increased ERO augmentation time of 120 L3 e increased committed onshiA I minutes staffing forcritical functions and capabilities correlates to an increase in public protection; increase offsets any perceived decrease resulting from increasing cunent augmentation time from current 30-60 minutes to proposed 120 minute staffing time. All entical Ametions(onshiA and 30 minutes)in Table can be t perfonned onshiR. I[
- levelofpublic protection actually a increased due to all entical functions being covered on shiA.
- Allows use of broader pool of expertise.
- Changing commitment to have all Emergency Facilities activated at Alert level, thus EOF staff augmentation will begin at lower event classification.
- Increased understanding of accidents indicates accident progression is slower than previously thought.
- Single and increased augmentation times have been allowed for other nuclear units.
- Is a more realistic and achievable time since current times could lead workers to rush to the plant (speed to work)which puts the public at undue risk.

I PROPOSED CHANGE TYPE JUSTIFICATION FOR CHANGE Delay augmentanon of two 30 minute and L4 e Assigning this as an onshiA two 60 minute Offrite Radiological Survey radiation protection capability responders until 120 minutes function allows this change and is supported by Lt.
- Delay of function for two hours has been allowed at other sites; Crystal River.
Delay augmentation of the Core / Thermal L5 e Thisjob is a Technical Hydraulics function from 30 to 120 minutes Specification required onshiA STA and add a Note (f)to the Core function. Thermal / Hydraulics function e OnshiA staffing of this function offsets delay in augmentation; however augmentation of the function willstill continue to be Performed, j e Note (f)being added repeats information that is already stated in the USFAR and Technical Specifications that this capability d s must be maintained onshiA. Delay augmentation of second inplant L6 e The function is only performed on survey HP from 30 minutes until 120 an as needed basis only and covered minutes. by onshiA personnel.
- NRC mandated area radiation monitor's (ARM's) and air samplers virtually eliminates the need for HP's to enter vital areas to perform surveys and could be used in lieu of surveys. NRC guidance supports not sending HPs into plant to perform surveys. Inplant radiological monitoring instrumentation is a means to establish radiological conditions during an emergency and addresses both worker safety issues and ALARA considerations. This logic is supported and discussed in detail in the UFSAR.
PROPO6ED CHANGE TYPE JUSTIFICATION FOR CHANGE Provides the ability to use personnel trained L7
- This change allows staff personnel to perform specific radiation protection to perform Health Physics EmergencyTasks instead ofcurrent Emergency Tasks as long as the prescriptive words individual has been tramed to perform the required task.
. Worker control and prescription of radiological protective requirements will oniy be performed by qualified Health Physicists.
e This change was previously only allowed for the Offsite Monitor Function and is merely a cor:tinuation of a previously accepted allowance. e 10CFR50.47 does not specify certification requirements for a HP Technicians listed in the Emergency Plan, e The minimum req'uirement, as outlined in 10CFR50.47,is that personnel are properly trained. f Delay augmentation of Offsite Dose L8 e Capability to perform function is Assessment person from 30 minutes until onshift. 120 minutes e Delaying augmentation is acceptable since offsite dose assessment can be performed immediately, versus current allowed 30 minute delay with no onshift offsite dose maneatment requirement. There will be no increase in the level ofoffsite dose assessment activities ha 60120 minutes of an event than what is currently expected for the first 30-60 minutes.
- Offsite dose assessment computemation facilitates this change since the offsite dose assessment function can now be performed on demand when conditions change which could affect offsite dose.
PROPOSED CHANGE ! TYPE JUSTWICATION I FOR CHANGE Increases onshiA commumcators from one M1 Only required to have one to two which allows elimination of 30 communicator onshiA. minute responder. Added the requirement for the radwaste M2 e Not a required onshiA function. operator capability to be onshiA for Repair
- Increases the onshift capability, and Corrective Actions and added Note (b)
- This change is being made to reflect to the onshi A radwaste operator Repair and desired staffmg which is to perform Corrective Action Functional Area or provide the capability to perform all critical Emergency Tasks onshiA.
- Since we are requiring the capability to perform this position onshiA, allowing the position to be performed by personnel assigned other duties should be noted for this position. The normal onshift radwaste operator is not functioning in the Repair and Corrective Action role while onshiA in a nm-emergency. They operate the Radwaste Control Room.
e At 120 minutes, this position becomes dedicated and the footnote is no longer required. The capability to perform Offsite Dose M3 e The capability to perform this Assessment onshiA results in a new staffing function onshiA is added so that number of one. Note (b) has been added to onshiA personnel can perform this this function since this function will be function. performed by shi A personnel assigned other e NRC has requested (EPOS-3)that duties, the capability to perform this , function be an onshiA function. !
- Currently is not a requirement.
- Increases the current onshiA capability.
Increased onshin Onsite Radiological M4
- Currently there is no onshiA l Survey (out of plant) staffmg from zero to requirement for this Emergency I one Task.
- This function has also been combined in the Major Functional Area of Radiation Protection with Emergency Task of surveys.
- Ll providesjustification to combine this function with the new Radiation Protection Emergency lask of surveys.
PROPOSED CHANGE TYPE JUSTIFICATION FOR CHANGE l l Deletion of physical line in Table allows the MS
- Increase beyond what is currently l onshiA ShiA Technical Advisor to provide required which allows not having i the Coremurmal Hydraulics function this Emergency Task OnshiA.
- L5 addresses delaying augmentation of this function until 120 minutes.
