Company, LLC (Exelon) is submitting the following Emergency Plan Annex revisions for Limerick Generating Station (LGS), Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station (PBAPS),

and R. E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant (Ginna):

  • EP-AA-1007, Revision 33, "Exelon Nuclear Radiological Emergency Plan Annex for Peach Bottom Atomic Powe.rStation"
  • EP-AA-1008, Revision 30, "Exelon Nuclear Radiological Emergency Plan Annex for Limerick Generating Station"
  • EP-AA-1012, Revision 4, "Exelon Nuclear Radiological Emergency Plan Annex for Ginna Station" Description of Procedures The Emergency Plan Annexes (i.e., EP-AA-1007 for PBAPS, EP-AA-1008 for LGS, and EP-AA-1012 for Ginna) contain emergency planning information and guidance unique to the cited stations.

This includes facility geography, emergency response facility locations, and process and radiation monitoring instrumentation that provides a description of the station's emergency response capabilities, as well as any station unique commitments. In conjunction with Emergency Plan Annexes, Exelon maintains a Nuclear Standardized Radiological Emergency Plan (i.e., EP-AA-1000) that outlines the basis for the response actions that would be implemented during an emergency. The planning efforts common to other Exelon nuclear stations are encompassed within the Standard Plan. Description of Changes 1 . This revision to EP-AA-1007 for PBAPS incorporates the following changes:

  • In Table PBAPS 5-1, "Emergency Supplies and Equipment,"

the name of Location 13, "Health Physics," was revised to read Location 13, "Radiation Protection Muster Area."

  • In Appendix 2, the name for Harford Memorial Hospital was changed to University of Maryland Harford Memorial Hospital.
  • The older Seismic Monitoring System (SMS) has been replaced by a newer design. The new SMS was installed under a site-approved design change modification that meets applicable regulatory requirements,
guidance, and standards related to seismic monitoring.

The SMS consists of accelerometers located throughout the plant, a free-field sensor located on the site property away from buildings, and I -Attachment 1 Page 2 of 3 strong-motion recorders. The SMS provides the capability of generating a Cumulative Absolute Velocity (CAV) output. The site seismic response design spectra along with CAV measurements determine if the earthquake motions applied to the plant structures exceed the two-unit site seismic response spectra such that a plant shutdown would be required.

2. This revision to EP-AA-1008 for LGS incorporates the following changes:
  • Step 2.1 states: "The Normal Shift Organization will be augmented, in an emergency, with designated/additional Emergency Response Organization (ERO) personnel within 60 minutes of notification as specified under Table 2-1." The wording in the EP-AA-1000, "Exelon Nuclear Standardized Radiological Emergency Plan," Step H .4, provides 60 minutes for augmentation following the declaration of an Alert or higher emergency classification for the Emergency Response Organization (ERO) personnel responding to the station Emergency Response Facilities (ERFs) and the offsite Emergency Operations Facility (EOF). This change aligns the wording for augmentation of the ERO as listed in the station's Annex with that in the Exelon Standard Plan. There is no change in the augmentation time for LGS.
  • The older Seismic Monitoring System (SMS) has been replaced by a newer design. The new SMS was installed under a site-approved design change and meets applicable regulatory requirements,
guidance, and standards related to seismic monitoring.

The SMS consists of accelerometers located throughout the plant, a free-field sensor located on the site property away from buildings, and strong-motion recorders. The SMS provides the capability of generating a Cumulative Absolute Velocity (CAV) output. The site seismic response design spectra along with CAV measurements determine if the earthquake motions applied to the plant structures exceed the two-unit site seismic response spectra such that a plant shutdown would be required.

  • The station has abandoned the fixed CO2 fire protection system, removed the exciter CO2 piping for Units 1 and 2 and removed manual CO2 hose reels, and is replacing them with portable fire extinguishers in the 13.2 kV switchgear compartment, outside both Control Room entrances, and along the north side of the Turbine Enclosure operating deck. This work was completed under a site-approved design change modification.
  • Exelon has changed the environmental sampling collection vendor. Normandeau Associates, which was the previous vendor, has been replaced by Exelon Industrial Services.

The new vendor meets applicable regulatory requirements and guidance established in NUREG-0654 related to environmental sampling and monitoring.

  • The description in a Letter of Agreement was updated to replace the old airport name with the party cited in the lease agreement.
  • The name of the local airport has been changed.

It is now named Heritage Field. 3. This revision to EP-AA-1012 for Ginna incorporates the following administrative-related changes:

  • Implemented the use of the term "Alternative Facility."
  • Corrected a numerical error in a reference to Section 5.1.7 that should be Section 5.1.8.

Attachment 1 Page 3 of 3

  • Changed a reference from an implementing procedure to an environmental chemistry--

procedure.

  • * -* Replaced the term "decontamination kits" with the term "decontamination supplies."
  • Replaced the term "self-reading pocket dosimeters" with the term "dosimeters" that are located in the Operations Support Center (OSC) locker.
  • Removed the Letters of Agreement between Ginna, James A. Fitzpatrick, and Nine Mile Point Stations now that they are all owned/operated by Exelon and no longer needed. Description of How the Changes Still Comply with Regulations The changes described above supporting the upgrades to the LGS and PBAPS SMSs meet applicable regulatory requirements,
guidance, and standards related to seismic monitoring.

The new systems have equivalent or greater capability than the equipment it is replacing. The new systems improve the accuracy for determining an Operating Basis Earthquake (OBE), but do not change the Emergency Action Level (EAL) threshold values for the OBE. The changes at LGS related to the CO2 system as described above improve personnel safety and continue to meet the fire suppression requirements. The removal of the CO2 hose reels does not violate applicable regulatory requirements since the areas covered by the CO2 hose reels are also protected by water-based hose stations. Portable CO2 extinguishers are also used to replace CO2 hose reels. Fire Safe Shutdown capability is still maintained. The other changes described above to the Emergency Plan Annexes for LGS, PBAPS, and Ginna are administrative in nature. These administrative changes do not alter the meaning or intent of the basis of the NRG-approved Emergency Plans, and applicable regulations and commitments continue to be met. Therefore, the changes discussed continue to satisfy applicable Emergency Planning requirements established in 1 O CFR 50.47, 1 O CFR 50, Appendix E and the program element guidance of NUREG-0654. Description of Why the Changes are Not a Reduction in Effectiveness {RIE) No existing emergency preparedness requirements have been deleted or minimized, and applicable regulations and commitments continue to be met. Emergency response capabilities are maintained and not adversely impacted by the changes. Therefore, the changes described above do not constitute a reduction in effectiveness of the LGS, PBAPS, and Ginna Emergency Plans.

  • Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station Annex Exelon Nuclear Section 1 : Introduction As required in the conditions set forth by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRG) for the operating licenses for the Exelon Nuclear Stations, the management of Exelon recognizes its responsibility and authority to operate and maintain the nuclear power stations in such a manner as to provide for the safety of the general public. The Exelon Emergency Preparedness Program consists of the Exelon Nuclear Standardized Radiological Emergency Plan, Station Annexes, emergency plan implementing procedures, and associated program administrative documents.

The Exelon Nuclear Standardized Radiological Emergency Plan out_lines the basis for response actions that would be implemented in an emergency. Planning efforts common to all Exelon Nuclear stations are encompassed within the Emergency Plan. This document serves as the Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station Annex and contains information and guidance that is unique to the station. This includes facility geography and location for a full understanding and representation of the station's emergency response capabilities. The Station Annex is subject to the same review and audit requirements as the Exelon Nuclear Standardized Radiological Emergency Plan per EP-AA-120, "Emergency Plan Administration". 1.1 1.2 Facility Description The Peach Bottom Atomic-Power Station (PBAPS) is a fixed nuclear facility operated by Exelon Nuclear. The station consists of one High Temperature Gas Cooled Reactor designated as Unit 1, which is in the SAFSTOR status of decommissioning, two operating Boiling Water Reactors designated as Units 2 and 3, and an Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation (ISFSI). The PBAPS station is located partly in York County and partly in Lancaster County in southeastern Pennsylvania, on the west shore of Conowingo Pond, near the mouth of Rock Run Creek. The plant is about 38 miles NNE of Baltimore, MD; 65 miles WSW of Philadelphia, PA; 45 miles SE of Harrisburg, PA; and 20 miles SSE of Lancaster, PA. Conowingo Pond is a reservoir formed by the backwater of Conowingo Dam on the Susquehanna River; the dam is located about 9 miles downstream from PBAPS. The nearest communities are Delta, PA, and Cardiff, MD, located approximately 4 and 6 miles WSW of the site, respectively. For more specific site location information, refer to the Updated Final Safety Analysis Report (UFSAR) for Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station. Emergency Planning Zones The Plume Exposure Emergency Planning Zone (EPZ) for Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station shall be an area surrounding the Station with a radius of about ten miles.

  • Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station Annex Exelon Nuclear Section 4: Emergency Measures 4.1 Notification of the Emergency Organization Notifications for the Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station are made to the following additional State and local agencies in accordance with Section.

E.3 of the Exelon Nuclear Standardized Radiological Emergency Plan:

  • Maryland Emergency Management Agency (MEMA)
  • Pennsylvania Emergency Management Agency (PEMA)
  • Cecil County Emergency Management

& Civil Defense Agency

  • Chester County_ Department of Emergency Services
  • Harford County Division of Emergency Operations
  • Lancaster County Emergency Management Agency
  • York County Emergency Services Notification of PEMA and the risk counties will be directed by the Emergency Director within 15 minutes of initial event classification, reclassification, or a change in a protective action recommendation (PAR) due to plant conditions or meteorological changes per Section E.3 of the Exelon Nuclear Standardized Radiological Emergency Plan. In addition, once the EOF is activated, the Corporate Emergency Director will contact the Senior Pennsylvania State Official as designated by PEMA following the decision to recommend a protective action for the general public. Upon notification of an emergency at Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station, the Pennsylvania Bureau of Radiation Protection (BRP) and Maryland Department of the Environment (MOE) will contact the appropriate station to verify that an emergency exists and to obtain technical information, and then makes recommendations to PEMA and MEMA respectively, regarding protective actions for the public. The BRP/ MOE Support Plan For Fixed Nuclear Facility Incidents utilizes the Protective Action Guidelines in the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) 400-R-92-001, "Manual of Protective Action Guides and Protective Actions for Nuclear Incidents".

Exelon Nuclear will provide follow-up information to the BRP/MDE or other off-site authorities. The follow-up information will keep these authorities apprised of existing or potential radiological

releases, meteorological conditions, projected doses and contamination levels, licensee
actions, recommend protective actions and other information pertinent to the authorities responsibilities.

The information may be provided over open communication paths or in person to BRP/MDE personnel. December 2017 PBAPS 4-1 EP-AA-1007 (Revision

  • I.
  • Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station Annex Exelon Nuclear 4.2 A$sessment Actions The effluent radiation monitoring system provides indications of gross releases of gaseous and liquid radioactivity.

By applying calibration

factors, meteorological data, or river flow, the gross indications are used to calculate approximate release rates in µCi/sec and dose rates at specific distances along the release pathways.

Particulate and iodine analysis depends on collecting installed filter papers and charcoal cartridges for analysis in the counting room. Similar calculation procedures are applied to approximate release rates and dose rates due to iodine. Detectors are strategically located throughout the plant. These detectors indicate and alarm locally and in the Control Room. They serve the purpose of indicating current dose rates in those areas and are used for local evacuation action levels and re-entry operations. Certain plant operating systems contain radiation monitors. These systems are described in the PBAPS UFSAR. Portable monitoring instruments and sampling equipment consist of such items that are utilized and maintained on-site by the Chemistry and Health Physics sections for normal day-to-day plant operations and are thus available for emergency operations. 4.2.1 Core Damage Assessment Methodology 4.3 Core damage information is used to refine dose assessments and confirm or extend initial protective action recommendations. Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station utilizes NEDC-33045P-A, "Methods of Estimating Core Damage in BWRs" (Revision 0, July 2001 ), as the basis for the methodology for post-accident core damage assessment. This methodology utilizes real-time plant indications. In addition, PBAPS may use samples of plant fluids and atmospheres as inputs to the CDAM (Core Damage Assessment Methodology) program for core damage estimation. Protective Actions for the Offsite Public For incidents at PBAPS, PEMA coordinates with MEMA and contacts York, Lancaster and Chester County Emergency Management Agencies to assure that local plans have been implemented. MEMA likewise contacts Cecil and Harford Counties in the event of emergency at PBAPS to assure that all plans have been implemented. County and local governments have primary responsibilities for implementing protective measures for the public following a nuclear incident. The BRP and MOE serve as lead State agency, in Pennsylvania and Maryland respectively, for technical assistance to other state agencies, county, and local governments regarding radiological health and accident assessment. In the absence of communications with the state, recommendations for protective actions shall be made directly to county emergency operations centers from the station .

  • Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station Annex Exelon Nuclear 4.3.1 Alert and Notification System (ANS) Sirens Annex E of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania Emergency Operations Plan and Annex* Q of. the Maryland Radiological Emergency Plan address notification to the general public and others regarding protective actions.

An Alert Notification. System, which is intended for use by the counties, in conjunction with the Emergency Alert System (EAS) to provide notification to the general public, has been installed.

  • Alerting of the EPZ population is provided by a siren system that was installed and is maintained by Exelon Nuclear.

The system consists of high-powered rotating electro-mechanical sirens mounted on Class 1 utility poles throughout the Plume Exposure Pathway (10-Mile EPZ). Personnel at the risk county communication centers operate the sirens. The Pennsylvania Emergency Management Agency (PEMA), in conjunction with Maryland and the risk counties, coordinates the activation of the siren system for Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station. The siren system meets or exceeds the acoustic coverage requirements outlined in NUREG-0654/FEMA-REP-1 and FEMA-REP-10. The location of each siren site was determined by a computer-based .sound propagation model. The sirens are controlled by digitally encoded radio signals transmitted by a transceiver at the station. Each risk county has control of the sirens that are physically located in that county. The sirens can be activated on an individual, municipal, county, or EPZ-wide basis. A controller located at the station serves as a backup to the county controllers. After the system is activated, each siren reports the result of its activation back to the respective county controller and the controller at the station. The siren system is tested regularly to ensure its operability. Annex E (to the PA Emergency Operations Plan) and Annex Q (to the Maryland REP) delineate risk counties as responsible to:

  • Develop a system for rapid notification (in priority order) of county and local government heads, key staff, emergency forces, volunteer organizations,
schools, hospitals, nursing homes, business, and industry;
  • Ensure that the alert and notification system is operable on an clock basis;
  • Prepare and disseminate public information material on protective actions to provide clear instructions to the population at risk;
  • Prepare and maintain material current for dissemination through the EAS; and
  • Include provisions in the alert plan for notification of transients.

  • Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station Annex Exelon Nuclear PEMA/MEMA will notify other states within the Ingestion Pathway EPZ should such action be necessary.

Annex E (to the PA Emergency Operations Plan) and Annex Q (to the Maryland REP) also. call for each risk county to promptly activate their alert notification system, when appropriate. EAS radio stations will be activated and instructed as to which prepared message to use. Detailed messages with specific instructions to _the public will be provided to the EAS stations by state and county public information officers on a timely basis. Various state agencies will assist the counties in assuring notifications of transients. Backup means of notification is achieved through Route Alerting, which is contained within the State and respective counties' Radiological Emergency

  • Response Plans and procedures.

The means consists of utilizing vehicles with public address (PA) systems in the event the primary method of alerting and notification is unavailable. The backup method has the capability to alert and notify the public within the plume exposure pathway EPZ within a reasonable time, but does not need to meet the 15-minute design objective for the primary prompt public alert and notification system. 4.3.2 Evacuation Time Estimates The ETE study used population data from the 2010 census which includes parts of three counties in Pennsylvania (Chester, Lancaster and York) and two counties in Maryland (Harford and Cecil). The evacuation times are based on a detailed consideration of the EPZ roadway network and population distribution. The ETE Study, contained in EP-AA-1007 Addendum 2, Evacuation Time Estimates for the Peach Bottom Station Plume Exposure Pathway Emergency Planning Zone, presents evacuation times for daytime and nighttime scenarios under various weather conditions for the evacuation of various areas around the Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station, once a* decision has been made to evacuate. 4.3.3 Potassium Iodide (Kl) The Department of Health, Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, is responsible for providing advice to. PEMA on the planning for the use, stockpiling and distribution of Potassium Iodide (Kl) or other thyroid blocking agents and such other radiological .health materials as may be required for the protection of the general public. Their decision shall also be based on U.S. FDA guidance. The use of Kl in the State of Maryland will be in accordance with state health laws and under the direction of State and County Medical Officials . December 2017 PBAPS 4-4 EP-AA-1007 (Revision

b. Public information on protective actions is prepared and disseminated annually to provide clear instructions to the population-at-risk.

Exelon Nuclear assists PEMA/MEMA and risk counties in the preparation and distribution of their respective public information .. Pamphlets outlining public education response actions are readily available for transients in the 10-Mile EPZ. In addition, emergency information is provided to the operators of other recreational areas in the 10-Mile EPZ, as defined by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, State of Maryland and risk counties. These public information publications (including telephone book emergency information, etc.) instruct the public to go indoors and turn on their radios when they hear the ANS sirens operating. These publications identify the local radio stations to which the public should tune in for information relat~d to the emergency. Additional materials (e.g., such as rumor control numbers, evacuation routes, information on inadvertent siren soundings, etc.) may also be included in these publications based on agreements with responsible State and risk county agencies. News Media Education Information kits are available to news media personnel. These kits include information on a variety of nuclear power plant related subjects. 4.3.5 Protective Action Recommendations (PARs) for the General Public To aid the Emergency Response Organization during a developing emergency situation, EP-AA-111, "Emergency Classification and Protective Action Recommendations" has been developed based on Section J.1 O.m of the Emergency Plan .

  • Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station Annex Exelon Nuclear 4.4 Protective Actions for Onsite Personnel 4.4.1 Plant Evacuation Exelon Nuclear personnel and contractors filling emergency response organization positions are considered essential personnel.

As such, they will report to their emergency response locations. They will not evacuate unless specifically directed by the Emergency Director. All other personnel are considered non-essential. In-plant evacuation is initiated primarily by area radiation monitor alarms and continuous air monitor alarms, but is also applicable for fire alarms, explosions, toxic material conditions, as well as radiation, contamination, and airborne radioactivity surveys which indicate conditions above applicable limits. Notification for personnel to proceed with in-plant evacuation will be via a local alarm or an announcement on the plant PA system. The affected area and evacuation assembly areas (if appropriate) will be announced. The immediate response by individuals in the vicinity of such an alarm or announcement is evacuation to an unaffected area or designed assembly area. In the absence of readily available radiological survey information or other logical assessment of conditions, evacuation will be, at least, to a point where other area radiation

monitors, continuous air monitors, or observation of local conditions show that the area is not affected

. Assigned plant personnel report to the scene to evaluate conditions, to provide information to the Control Room, and to perform other emergency functions such as personnel accountability, decontamination, medical assistance, and control of the hazard. Notification of a Site Evacuation is accomplished by activating the Evacuation Alarm System followed by an announcement over the plant PA system. The evacuation assembly area(s) are announced. Evacuation assembly areas are illustrated in Figure PBAPS 4-1. Non-essential personnel will exit via the security exit points and will proceed to the parking lot for transportation. Evacuees are expected to use their personal vehicles in evacuating to the designated evacuation assembly area(s). Designated evacuation assembly areas are located out side the protected area. Plant access roads are maintained clear during the winter months, travel on these roads is expected to be possible at all times. Plant visitors who have not completed the required training program are escorted at all times. This ensures proper response under emergency conditions. Visitors at the station shall follow the lead of their escorts to the assembly areas . December 2017 PBAPS 4-6 EP-AA-1007 (Revision

  • Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station Annex Exelon Nuclear 4.5 4.4.2 Personnel Accountability The Security personnel shall follow security procedures for personnel accountability.

For evacuations, information from evacuees is an important means of accounting for plant personnel. For Site Evacuations, non-essential personnel and those ERO members whose facility is located outside the Protected Area are accounted for at the security exit point. Emergency response personnel responding to the OSC within the Protected Area are accounted for by badging into designated card readers. 4.4.3 Monitoring of Evacuees Evacuees from the Peach Bottom Site are checked for contamination. Necessary personnel and vehicle decontamination efforts are initiated at the evacuation assembly area using in-plant equipment or emergency kit supplies. Priority for decontamination shall be given to personnel found to have the highest levels of contamination. Any personnel suspected, or known, to have ingested or inhaled radioactive material shall be given a whole body count, as soon as conditions permit, to assess their internal exposure. The registering and monitoring of the general public evacuating from the Plume Exposure Pathway EPZ, as described in Section ILJ.12 of the Exelon Nuclear Standardized Radiological Emergency Plan, will occur at designated facilities per the respective State and County Radiological Emergency Response Plans. Severe Accident Management Accident management consists of those actions taken during the course of an accident, by the Emergency Response Organization (ERO), specifically: plant operations, technical

support, and plant management staff in order to:
  • Prevent the accident from progressing to core damage;
  • Terminate core damage once it begins;
  • Maintain the capability of the containment as long as possible; and
  • Minimize on-site and off-site releases and their effects.

The later three actions constitute a subset of accident management, referred to as Severe Accident Management (SAM) or severe accident mitigation.

  • Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station Annex Exelon Nuclear 5.6 Independent Spent Fuel Storage (ISFS) Accidents associated with dry cask storage system include natural and man-made events that are postulated to affect the storage system. The limiting impacts to the system include:

(1) loss of shielding capability, and (2) loss of confinement to the system. The loss of shielding results in higher direct radiation from the cask to the environment while the loss of confinement results in a release of materials from within the cask to the environment at a postulated leak rate. Monitoring of the fuel storage system would provide the means to detect the accident condition and initiate corrective actions. Continued assessment would be provided to the Emergency Director by in-field radiological monitoring. Emergency response procedures include guidance for performing dose projections and may be supplemented by data . obtained from ERO dose assessment and environmental monitoring personnel.

  • Limerick Generating Station Annex Exelon Nuclear Section 1: Introduction As required in the conditions set forth by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) for the operating licenses for the Exelon Nuclear Stations, the management of Exelon recognizes its responsibility and authority to operate and maintain the nuclear power stations in such a manner as to provide for the safety of the general public. The Exelon Emergency Preparedness Program consists of the Exelon Nuclear Standardized Radiological Emergency Plan, Station Annexes, emergency plan implementing procedures, and associated program administrative documents.

The Exelon Nuclear Standardized Radiological Emergency Plan outlines the basis for response actions that would be implemented in an emergency. Planning efforts common to ~II Exelon Nuclear stations are encompassed within the Emergency Plan. This document . serves as the Limerick Generating Station Annex and contains information and guidance that is unique to the station. This includes facility geography and location for a full understanding and representation of the station's emergency response capabilities. The Station Annex is subject to the same review and audit requirements as the Exelon Nuclear Standardized Radiological Emergency Plan per AA-120, "Emergency Plan Administration". 1.1 Facility Description The Limerick Generating Station (LGS) is a fixed nuclear electrical generating facility operated by Exelon Nuclear and licensed by the USNRC. The station includes two boiling water reactor (BWR) electrical generating units. The Limerick station is located partly in Montgomery County and partly in Chester County Pennsylvania on the Schuylkill River about 1 . 7 miles southeast of the limits of the Borough of Pottstown. The Schuylkill River passes through the site and separates the western portion, which is located in East Coventry

Township, Chester County, from the eastern portion, which is partly in Limerick Township and partly in Lower Pottsgrove
Township, both in Montgomery County. Major plant structures are in Limerick Township.

For more specific site location information, refer to the Updated Final Safety Analysis Report (UFSAR) for Limerick Generating Station. 1.2 Emergency Planning Zones The Plume Exposure Emergency Planning Zone (EPZ) for Limerick Generating Station shall be an area surrounding the Station with a radius of about ten miles.

  • Pennsylvania Emergency Management Agency (PEMA)
  • Berks County Emergency Management Agency
  • Chester County Emergency Services
  • Montgomery County Office of Emergency Preparedness Notification of PEMA and the risk counties will be directed by the Emergency Director within .15 minutes of initial event classification, reclassification, or a change in a protective action recommendation (PAR) due to plant conditions or meteorological changes per Section E.3 of the Exelon Nuclear Standardized Radiological Emergency Plan. In addition, once the EOF is activated, the Corporate Emergency Director will contact the Senior Pennsylvania State Official as designated by PEMA following the d.ecision to recommend a protective action for the general public. Upon notification of an emergency at Limerick Generating
Station, the Pennsylvania Bureau of Radiation Protection (BRP) will contact the appropriate station to verify that an emergency exists and to obtain technical information, and then makes recommendations to PEMA regarding protective actions for the public. The BRP Support Plan For Fixed Nuclear Facility Incidents utilizes the Protective Action Guidelines in the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) 400-R-92-001, "Manual of Protective Action Guides and Protective Actions for Nuclear Incidents".

Exelon Nuclear will provide follow-up information to the BRP or other off-site authorities. The follow-up information will keep these authorities apprised of existing or potential radiological

releases, meteorological conditions, projected doses and contamination levels, licensee
actions, recommend protective actions and other information pertinent to . the authorities' responsibilities.

The information may be provided over open communication paths or in person to BRP personnel. ' Assessment Actions The effluent radiation monitoring system provides indications of gross releases of gaseous and liquid radioactivity. By applying calibration

factors, meteorological data, or river flow, the gross indications are used to calculate approximate release rates in µCi/sec and dose rates at specific distances along the release pathways.

Particulate and iodine analysis depends on collecting installed filter papers and charcoal cartridges for analysis in the counting room. Similar calculation procedures are applied to approximate release rates and dose rates due to iodine. December 2017 LGS 4-1 EP-AA-1008 (Revision

  • Limerick Generating Station Annex Exelon Nuclear Detectors are strategically located throughout the plant. These detectors indicate and alarm locally and in the Control Room. They serve the purpose of indicating current dose rates in those areas and are used for local evacuation action levels and re-entry operations.

Certain plant operating systems contain radiation monitors. These systems are described in the LGS UFSAR. Portable monitoring instruments and sampling equipment consist of such items that are utilized and maintained on-site by the Chemistry and Health Physics sections for normal day-to-day plant operations and are thus available for emergency operations. 4.2.1 Core Damage Assessment Methodology Core damage information is used to refine dose assessments and confirm or extend initial protective action recommendations. Limerick Generating Station utilizes NEDC-33045P, "Methods of Estimating Core Damage in BWRs" (Revision 0, July 2001 ), as the basis for the methodology for accident core damage assessment. This methodology utilizes real-time plant indications. In addition, Limerick Generating Station may use samples of plant fluids and atmospheres as inputs to the CDAM (Core Damage Assessment Methodology) program for core damage estimation

  • 4.3 Protective Actions for the Offsite Public
  • PEMA interface for incidents at Limerick Generating Station will be with Berks, Chester and Montgomery Counties.

County and local governments have primary responsibilities for implementing protective measures for the public following a nuclear incident. The BRP serves as, lead Pennsylvania State agency for technical assistance to other state agencies, county, and local governments regarding radiological health and accident assessment. In the absence of communications with the state, recommendations for protective actions shall be made directly to county emergency operations centers from the station. 4.3.1 Alert and Notification System (ANS) Sirens Annex E of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania Emergency Operations Plan addresses notification to the general public and others regarding protective actions. An Alert Notification System, which is intended for use by the counties, in conjunction with the Emergency Alert System (EAS) to provide notification to the general public, has been installed .

  • Limerick Generating Station Annex Exelon Nuclear Alerting of the EPZ population is provided by a siren system that was installed and is maintained by Exelon Nuclear.

The system consists of high-powered rotating electro-mechanical sirens mounted on Class 1 utility poles throughout the Plume Exposure Pathway (10-Mile EPZ). Personnel at the risk county communication centers operate the sirens. The Pennsylvania Emergency Management Agency (PEMA) coordinates the activation of the siren system for Limerick Generating Station. The siren system meets or exceeds the acoustic coverage requirements outlined in NUREG-0654/FEMA-REP-1 and FEMA-REP-10. A based sound propagation model determined the location of each siren site. The sirens are controlled by digitally encoded radio signals transmitted by a transceiver at the station. Each risk county has control of the sirens that are physically located in that county. The sirens can be activated on an individual, municipal, county, or EPZ-wide basis. A controller located at the station serves. as a backup to the county controllers. After the system is activated, each siren reports the result of its activation back to the respective county controller and the controller at the station. The siren system is tested regularly to ensure its operability. Annex E delineates risk counties as responsible to:

  • Develop a system for rapid notification (in priority order) of county and local government heads, key staff, emergency forces, volunteer organizations,
schools, hospitals, nursing homes, business, and industry;
  • Ensure that the alert and notification system is operable on an the-clock basis;
  • Prepare and disseminate public information material on protective actions to provide clear instructions to the population at risk;
  • Prepare and maintain material current for dissemination through the EAS; and
  • Include provisions in the alert plan for notification of transients.

PEMA will notify other states within the Ingestion Pathway EPZ should such action be necessary. Annex E calls for each risk county to promptly activate their alert notification system, when appropriate. EAS radio stations will be activated and instructed as to which prepared message to use. Detailed messages with specific instructions to the public will be provided to the EAS stations by state and county public information officers on a timely basis. Various state agencies will assist the counties in assuring notifications of transients. December 2017 LGS 4-3 EP-AA-1008 (Revision

The primary purpose of the screening function is to reduce the number of locations where site wide page announcements can originate. The LGS Public Address stations within the plant are equipped with. two page buttons. One is for normal plant pages, and the other is for emergency pages to the Control Room. When used, the emergency page button unlocks the PA speakers in the Control Room for the incoming message. The Control Room speakers are silent (muted) for all normal plant pages. This arrangement allows for a more orderly Control Room and emphasizes the emergency pages made to the Control Room. A PA station is located in the Main Control Room, Operations Support Center, and TSC. Capability exists to warn individuals in the vicinity of the river through the river warning system utilizing the plant PA system. The Main Control Room has priority page abilities that. allow the MCR announcements to override normal plant page announcements. 5.5.2 Private Branch Exchange (PBX) Telephone System The LGS on-site commercial telephone system provides telephone communications capabilities throughout the plant, remote structures, and with off-site parties. Extensions are located in the Main Control Room, the TSC, and the OSC. The power supply for this system consists of two separate on-site sources. Both the primary and backup sources are supplied from motor control centers. The backup source is powered from a Unit 1 Division 3 safeguard bus. The PBX Telephone System is automatically shed on a LOCA signal, but can be manually reset at the MCC. If both sources of power are unavailable, an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) with a minimum of two hours of emergency battery power will supply the telephone system. The 2-hour UPS is designed to allow sufficient time to restore the diesel-generator supplied power source, if necessary. This power configuration is designed to maintain this communication system during a total station blackout. The PECO Energy Main Office and Exelon Nuclear headquarters are also served by separate commercial telephone systems (PBX's). All PECO Energy and Exelon Nuclear's PBX's are networked together to create a fully integrated voice network, providing call management and network redundancy .

  • Ginna Annex Exelon Nuclear Section 1: Introduction As required in the conditions set f9rth by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRG) for the operating licenses for the Exelon Nuclear Stations, the management of Exelon recognizes its responsibility and authority to operate and maintain the nuclear power stations in such a manner as to provide for the.safety of the general public. The Exelon Emergency Preparedness Program consists of the Exelon Nuclear Standardized Emergency Plan (E-Plan),

Station Annexes, emergency plan implementing procedures, and associated program .administrative documents. The Exelon E-Plan outlines the basis for response actions that would be implemented in an emergency. Planning efforts common to all Exelon Nuclear stations are encompassed within the E-Plan. This document serves as the Radiological Emergency Plan Annex for Ginna Station and contains information and guidance that is unique to the station. This includes the facility geography location for a full understanding and representation of the station's emergency response capabilities. The Station Annex is subject to the same review and audit requirements as the Exelon Nuclear Standardized Emergency Plan. 1.1 Purpose The Exelon Nuclear Standardized Emergency Plan and Ginna Station Annex describes the total preparedness program established, implemented and coordinated by R. E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant LLC and the resources and capabilities available from Exelon, hereinafter referred to as "the Company", to ensure the capability and readiness for coping with and mitigating both onsite and offsite consequences of radiological emergencies at Ginna Station. The plan covers the spectrum of emergencies from minor localized incidents to major emergencies involving protective measures by offsite response organizations. Included are guidelines for immediate

response, assessment of emergency situations, defined action criteria and delineation of support and recovery functions.

Emergency Plan Implementing Procedures (EPIPs) and fleet procedures provide detailed information for individuals who may be involved with specific emergency response functions. The Emergency Plan Annex provides for a graded scale of response for distinct classifications of emergency conditions, actions within those classifications, and criteria for escalating to a more severe classification. This classification system is identical to that used by the State of New York and the local (Wayne and Monroe County) emergency response agencies. The plans have four categories of emergencies: Unusual Event, Alert, Site Area Emergency and General Emergency. A fifth condition, Local Radiation Emergency, has been added. A Local Radiation Emergency is less severe than an Unusual Event and does not involve any offsite organization. The Emergency Plan describes the activities and provisions other than engineered safety systems which are intended to limit exposures to the general December 2017 GN 1-1 EP-AA-1012 (Revision

  • Ginna Annex Exelon Nuclear public as well as to plant personnel.

The Emergency Plan covers the following conditions:

1) Major release to the atmosphere.
2) Major release to the lake. 3) Abnormally high radiation or airborne radioactivity in a particular area of the plant. 4) Plant conditions that may lead to potential releases.

NOTE: Offsite Transportation accidents are covered by Radiation Protection 1.2 Procedures (RP Procedures) and do not require classification in this Plan. The Company has the immediate and continuing responsibility for limiting the consequences of an incident at the Ginna Nuclear Power Plant. Limiting the consequences to public health and safety should take clear precedence over limiting financial loss or adverse publicity. During a radiological emergency, the Company should take _whatever action is deemed necessary to limit the consequences to public health and safety, even if that action violates the Ginna Technical Specifications. Such actions would require prior approval, as a minimum, by a licensed Senior Reactor Operator and follow-up notification to the NRC in accordance with 1 OCFR50.54 (x) and (y). The Company is responsible for keeping Federal, State and local authorities informed of the status of the emergency as it relates to protection of the public health and safety. The Company will recommend to Federal, State and local authorities specific protective actions to limit the danger to the public, including evacuation. The Company understands that it is the Nuclear Regulatory Commission's policy that the emergency should be managed by the licensee. The NRG Headquarters Staff is limited in its ability to provide detailed recommendations to plant personnel or plant managers at the site. The Company understands that the NRG Operations Center will be the primary location where this agency will monitor and evaluate licensee actions. During that time, the normal response roles for the NRG Operations Center will be to monitor, inform, and, upon request, advise licensees and other Federal, State and local authorities. The authority for managing the NRC's emergency response efforts will be transferred to a senior onsite NRG representative when the NRC Headquarters Staff is confident the onsite representatives are prepared to receive that authority. Their role will continue to be monitoring, informing, and advising plant and local authorities. Management Oversight: Management oversight of the Emergency Preparedness program is provided by the Emergency Preparedness Advisory Committee. The details of the board's activities are contained in EP-AA-120-1004, Emergency Preparedness Advisory Committee. December 2017 GN 1-2 EP-AA-1012 (Revision

  • Ginna Annex Exelon Nuclear 1 .3 Summary of Emergency Plan The primary objective of this plan is to protect the public and onsite personnel in the event of a radiation emergency.

This plan describes in general the actions to be taken by Company personnel in coordination with Federal, State and local authorities. Through an emergency organization which is described, the magnitude and impact of radioactive releases will be assessed and the need for the activation of a more extensive emergency response will be determined. The systems for notification of emergency personnel,

Federal, State and local authorities, and the public are described along with the emergency facilities and equipment which are available for the trained emergency staff. The goal of the Ginna Station emergency organization is the safe shutdown and recovery of the Station and protection of the health and safety of the public and employees.

The general actions to be taken in the event of a radiation accident include the following:

1) 2) 3) 4) Observation and determination of the classification of the occurrence.

Prevention or minimization of radiation hazards by the Emergency Director and the on-duty operators. Evacuation of all non-essential personnel from the plant to the Ginna Training Center or other location, as appropriate . Involvement of plant security personnel, supervisory personnel, Chemistry and Radiation Protection personnel, and other plant staff. 5) Notification of NRC Operations Center and State and local authorities, issuance of news releases, and emergency medical treatment.

6) Activation of Emergency Response Organization.
7) Recovery and restoration of the plant to normal operation.

The extent of response to an emergency situation is determined by the seriousness of potential consequences. With the potential for effects to the general public, the assistance of Federal, State and local agencies will be required. For situations which only affect onsite operations, the situation will be handled by the Company. The awareness of an emergency situation will most likely originate in the Control Room. From an evaluati0n of plant parameters, the seriousness of the incident can be determined and the appropriate classification determined. The on-duty plant operators, under the direction of the Shift Emergency

Director, in consultation with the Shift Technical
Advisor, will take action to mitigate the incident and to obtain the assistance of other plant and Company personnel.

Personnel onsite will be alerted by a warning signal if evacuation is deemed advisable and off-duty personnel will be called in through an established call procedure.

Federal, State and county officials will be notified so that they may begin to set up their response organizations.

  • Ginna Annex Exelon Nuclear Section 2: Organizational Control of Emergencies This section describes the Exelon Emergency Response Organization (ERO), its key positions and associated responsibilities.

It outlines the staffing requirements which provide initial emergency response actions and provisions for timely augmentation of on-shift personnel when required. It also describes interfaces among emergency response personnel and specifies the offsite support available ,o respond to the nuclear generating stations. Figures 2.1 through 2.7 show the interf~ces between and among the ERO functional areas. 2.1 On-Shift Emergency Response Organization Assignments The initial phases of an emergency situation at a nuclear station will most likely 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 subsequent phases of *the emergency situation may require an increasing augmentation of the emergency organization. All Exelon Nuclear stations have the capability at all times to perform detection, mitigation, classification, and notification functions required in the early phases of an emergency. 2.2 Authority Over the Emergency Response Organization The Emergency Director in Command and Control is the designated Exelon individual who has overall authority and responsibility, management

ability, and technical knowledge for coordinating all emergency response activities at the nuclear power station.

The Emergency Director will immediately and unilaterally initiate any emergency

actions, including providing protective action recommendations to authorities responsible for implementing offsite emergency measures.

The Shift Manager is available at all times to assume the responsibilities of Emergency Director. A qualified individual is on-call to respond to the EOF and assume Command and Control. In accordance with the Ginna Emergency Plan, the TSC Emergency Director does not take Command and Control responsibilities. 2.3 Criteria for Assuming Command and Control (Succession) The responsibility for initial assessment of and response to an emergency rests with the Shift Manager (Shift Emergency Director). Emergency personnel assume responsibility for their positions upon receiving notification to activate when an event has been declared. The Emergency Director responsibilities are initially assumed by the Shift Manager. If the event is classified at an Alert or Higher level, or the Shift Emergency Director deems it appropriate, the Shift ERO will be augmented by the on-call ERO . The Corporate Emergency Director will report to the EOF and assume the Emergency Director's responsibilities. December 2017 GN 2-1 EP-AA-1012 (Revision

  • Ginna Annex Exelon Nuclear The Shift Emergency Director is relieved of Command and Control as soon as possible after the declaration of an Alert or higher classification.

Command and Control does not transfer until the following criteria have been met:

  • Adequate EOF staff levels are present in support of the non-delegable responsibilities.
  • The staff has been fully briefed as to the status of the event and the currently proposed plan of action.
  • A formal turnover between the Emergency Director relinquishing Command and Control and the Emergency Director assuming Command and Control has been made. 2.4 Non-Delegable Responsibilities Functional responsibilities of the Emergency Director that may not be delegated include:
  • Classify and declare emergencies.
  • Direct and approve offsite emergency notifications to state and local authorities.
  • Make Protective Action Recommendations to offsite authorities.
  • Ensure appropriate evacuation actions for plant personnel.
  • Approve emergency exposures and/or the issuance of Kl.
  • 2.5 Emergency Response Organization Positional Responsibilities
  • Table 2.1 outlines ERO positions required to meet minimum staffing (within 60 minutes) and full augmentation of the on-shift complement at an Alert or higher classification, an,d the major tasks assigned to each position.

The full augmentation staffing levels are used as a planning basis to cover a wide range of possible events. For extended events (one which lasts for more than 24 hours), actual staffing will be established by the Corporate Emergency Director based on the event and personnel availability.

However, additional staffing or reduced staffing will only occur after discussion concerning the impact on plant operations and emergency response.

The station's ERO consist of three major .sub groups reporting to the Corporate Emergency Director:

  • Onsite ERO, consisting of Control Room, TSC, OSC and Security personnel.

The primary functions of the Onsite ERO is perform mitigative actions and ensure appropriate onsite protective actions are taken.

  • Off site ERO, consisting of EOF staff. The primary functions of the Off site ERO is to interface with offsite authorities and perform offsite radiological assessment.
  • Public Information ERO, consisting of JIC staff. The primary function of the Public information ERO is to provide accurate information to the public through News Media. December 2017 GN 2-2 EP-AA-1012 (Revision

Corporate Emergency Response Organization In the event of a declared emergency at one of Exelon's Nuclear Stations, a Corporate Duty Officer is notified.

The Duty Officer will notify senior company management personnel of the event. The Corporate Emergency Director will keep senior management informed of events and any need for assistance. Specific departments of the company may be called on to assist as necessary to provide support for logistics, public information,

finance, technical issues, etc .. Senior management may assist with interfacing government authorities and other outside organizations.

Augmentation of the Emergency Organization and Interface with Other Plans: The Ginna emergency organization is augmented by a number of offsite services. Figure 2.6 shows the relationship of non-Company offsite organizations in emergency response. Letters of agreement are referenced in Appendix

2. These agre~ments are considered valid until changed by the author during the annual review of the Emergency Plan. The authors of the letters of agreement are contacted in person or by telephone and the content of the letters is verified

. Plant procedures contain the phone numbers and alternate means of contact needed to initiate emergency response actions. The communicator will initiate a call to New York State, Monroe County and Wayne County EOC, using the NYS Radiological Emergency Communication System (RECS). During working hours, the EOC staff will respond. During off hours, the County 911 Centers and the State Watch Center will respond for each Emergency Director to RECS calls. The ERO is alerted by a call from an automated notification system or from the Ginna Control Room. Other offsite assistance, such as Department of Energy -Radiological Assistance Plan (DOE-RAP) team or Westinghouse, is alerted by a call from the Emergency Director or designee to their duty officer at the phone numbers listed in procedures. State of New York, Wayne and Monroe Counties Emergency Actions: The Company is responsible for promptly notifying State and county authorities when conditions affect, or may affect, safe plant operations. It is the responsibility of these offsite agencies to provide prompt notification to their parent and support organizations if it is determined that, conditions or circumstances, either onsite or offsite, have affected or may affect normal and safe plant operations or conditions in the environs. Wayne and Monroe County's decision processes are based on EPA Protective Action Guidelines (PAG), current road and weather conditions, time requirements for implementing PAGs and accident diagnosis and prognosis received from the licensee, New York State, USN RC and DOE.

  • Ginna Annex Exelon Nuclear The NRC has established, and the State of New York has accepted, four Emergency Classification Levels for which the Company shall provide early and prompt notification to both State and County authorities.

These Classification Levels are consistent with those described in Sections 3.2 through 3.5 in this plan.

  • The "Unusual Event" and "Alert" classifications provide early and prompt notification of minor events which could lead to more serious consequences or which might be indicative of more serious conditions which are not yet fully realized.

A gradation is provided to assure more complete offsite response preparations for more serious indicators. At the Alert or higher classification, full mobilization of offsite emergency personnel is required. The "Site Area Emergency" classification reflects conditions indicating significant releases are likely or are occurring but where a core-melt situation is not indicated. The "General Emergency" classification involves actual or imminent substantial core degradation or melting with the potential for loss of containment. The "General Emergency" classification requires immediate consideration of Protective Action Recommendations by the Company and communication of these recommendations to Wayne and Monroe Counties and New York State. Although Protective Action considerations are mutually discussed by each county, the Chairman of the N.Y.S. Disaster Preparedness Commission and both County Executives may decide to take actions of different magnitude. Protective Actions are based on current and forecasted weather conditions, road construction and other possible impediments to evacuation. 2.8.2 Local Disaster Coordinator (Wayne County Emergency* Management Office and Monroe County Office of Emergency Management): In general, the responsibilities of the Local Emergency Preparedness Coordinator in each county include the following: a) On receipt of notification from the State of New York, or Ginna Station Control Room, alert local authorities and officials in accordance with established plans. b) Coordinate response of local authorities and provide for available local assistance to the Company and State authorities in accordance with established plans. The participation of the counties, upon notification of an event involving the general public, is outlined in their Radiological Emergency Plans, which are reviewed in Appendix

5. The Office of Emergency Management iri each county consists of small administrative staffs and a pool of reserve personnel located throughout the county. Members receive training in monitoring, establishing relocation centers and providing medical attention, food, and lodging for evacuees.

Extensive communication resources are available for use by the Local Disaster Coordinators and staff, including a number of radios for contacting the county fire coordinator, the police forces, public works and commercial radio stations. A December 2017 GN 2-4 EP-AA-1012 (Revision

NUREG-0728, NRC Incident Response Plan): This NRC Plan describes the notification, communication decision-making and mobilization of the NRC Incident Response Organization in the event of an event/incident related to Ginna Station. The extent of mobilization will depend upon the emergency classification and associated plant conditions. The Company will supply whatever support services and resources are needed to maintain Federal assistance. 2.8.5 United States Department of Energy Radiological Assistance

Program, Region I, Brookhaven Area Office, Upton, New York (DOE RAP/IRAP):

Since Ginna Station is located in DOE Region I, the Brookhaven Office of the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) has the responsibility to provide radiological assistance in the event of an emergency. Their principal goal is to be prepared in the event of a major accidental

release, or other loss of control of radioactive material.

Radiological assistance can be requested at any time by calling and indicating the nature of the incident, the location, and how to contact utility and local authorities in order to coordinate the Department of Energy response. The assistance includes advice and emergency actions essential for the control of the immediate hazards to health and safety. This preparedness includes plans and procedures for: effective and economic use of resources; minimization of radiation exposure of individuals and the public; prevention of the spread of radioactive materials into the environment; and appropriate countermeasures to control and remove radiological hazards. Large numbers of qualified radiation, nuclear and medical specialists are the principal resource that can be made available in an emergency, along with quantities of radiation monitoring equipment and specialized detector and test equipment. Most assistance requests can be handled by giving advice, by sending radiological safety experts to the incident scene, or by transferring the request to another Federal agency or a State agency. The Department of Energy, Brookhaven Office, has agreed to provide such assistance upon notification of a hazard to the general public: Available resources are noted in the county plans. Assistance could be onsite within 4 hours of a request. The Company will supply whatever support services and resources are needed to maintain Federal December 2017 GN 2-5 EP-AA-1012 (Revision

  • Ginna Annex Exelon Nuclear Section 3: Classification of Emergencies Emergencies are classified into four categories, which cover the entire spectrum from probable incidents to postulated major accidents.

This system is coordinated with the NRG, New York State, Wayne County and Monroe County to ensure that the classification system is compatible with that used by all organizations.' The system provides for notification of appropriate emergency response organizations and implementation of actions immediately applicable to a specific condition. Provisions are included for revising the classification level and the corresponding responses in the event of a change in severity of the emergency condition. This section identifies the events which comprise each of the four emergency classifications requiring formal offsite notification. This section also describes a condition known as a Local Radiation Emergency which does not require formal notification. Criteria for characterizing, recognizing and declaring each emergency classification are given along with appropriate emergency classifications. Recognition and classification criteria are based, to the extent feasible, on readily available information such as Control Room instrumentation. Plant parameter values and the corresponding emergency classifications are given in appropriate implementing procedures. Immediate actions to be taken in response to plant conditions are detailed in plant operating and emergency procedures. Other emergency actions in response to radiation emergencies are identified in Section 4, Emergency Measures and described in detail in applicable Emergency Plan Implementing Procedures as listed in Appendix 3 . A comprehensive listing of Ginna-specific initiating conditions for each emergency classification is provided in EP-AA-1012, Addendum 3, Radiological Emergency Plan Emergency Action Levels (EALs) for Ginna Station. EP-AA-1012, Addendum 3 is based on NEI guidance provided in NEI 99-01 and demonstrates how an initiating condition leads directly to the appropriate emergency classification, based on the magnitude of the event. In some c*ases, extensive assessment is necessary to determine the applicable emergency classification. In any case, continuing reassessment is required to ensure that the classification is upgraded or downgraded commensurate with the severity of the condition. Emergency Plan Implementing Procedures can be found in the Control Room, Technical Support Center, Emergency Operations

Facility, Document
Control, and on the internal Ginna website.
  • 3.1 NOTE: Local Radiation Emergency:

The Local Radiation Emergency is not one of the four NRC Emergency Classifications and does not require any offsite notification. Incidents may occur which require response only within the plant. A Local Radiation Emergency is defined as a radiation emergency c*ondition whose consequences affect only personnel onsite. EPIP-1-13, Local Radiation Emergency, provides for the identification of local radiation emergencies and the actions necessary to ensure worker safety. December 2017 GN 3-1 EP-AA-1012 (Revision

  • NOTE: The following are the four NRC Emergency Classifications.
  • 3.2 Unusual Event: Events within
  • this Emergency Classification generally characterize off-normal plant conditions which, by themselves, do not constitute significant emergency conditions.

Some of these events could, however, indicate a potential degradation in the level of plant safety and/or could escalate to a more severe condition if appropriate action is not taken. The primary purpose for this classification is to ensure that the plant operating staff recognizes initiating conditions, takes appropriate action, and comes to a state of readiness to respond in the event that the condition becomes more significant. The Unusual Event classification or higher also requires that offsite authorities be promptly informed of the abnormal condition by use of the Radiological Emergency Communications System (RECS) and the New York State Radiological Emergency Data Form, Part I, found in procedure EP-CE-114-100 . No response by offsite authorities is necessary for non-hostile action events within this classification. The TSC or EOF will not usually be activated, although the Station Emergency

Director, Operations
Manager, OSC Chemistry Lead and Technical Manager will normally report to the TSC to provide assistance.

When giving notice to State and county officials, the Company will make sure that they clearly understand the Unusual Event classification and that, if conditions change, there will be further notification. 3.3 Alert: This Emergency Classification is characterized by events which indicate an actual or potential substantial degradation of the level of plant safety or a security threat that involves probable life-threatening risk to site personnel or damage to site equipment because of hostile action. This classification requires response by the plant ERO and augmentation of onsite emergency resources. It constitutes the lowest level where emergency offsite response for non-hostile action events may be anticipated. All Ginna emergency facilities_ will be staffed at an Alert or higher. Prompt notification of an event within this classification will be made to the NRC, State of New York and Monroe and Wayne Counties. While the initial assessment would not require . immediate

response, potential releases of radioactivity make it advisable to alert offsite organizations.

Periodic status updates will be made to keep authorities aware of the situation. 3.4 Site Area Emergency: A Site Area Emergency is characterized by events involving actual or probable 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 equipment needed for the protection of the public; or (2) that prevent effectives access to equipment needed for the protection of the public. Most events within this classification December 2017 GN 3-2 EP-AA-1012 (Revision

  • *
  • Ginna Annex Exelon Nuclear 3.5 constitute actual or clear potential for significant releases of radioactive material to the environment.

For a Site Area Emergency, all emergency response facilities are activated. Although emergency actions involving members of the public may not be necessary, offsite emergency response organizations should be mobilized and ready to implement protective measures. Protective actions taken onsite are: the evacuation, if deemed necessary, of all persons in areas other than the Control Room, Technical Support Center and OSC; initiation of onsite and offsite radiation monitoring; and close monitoring of plant status so that the licensee and other authorities can be advised of changing conditions,

  • whether increasing or decreasing in severity.

Meteorological and release data and survey results will be used to provide offsite dose estimates. For the purpose of classifying an emergency, instrument indications in the Control Room will be used. The instruments of interest and appropriate action points are part of the implementing procedures. General Emergency: A General Emergency is characterized by events which involve actual or imminent substantial core degradation or . melting with potential for loss of containment integrity or hostile actions that result in an actual loss of physical control of the facility. Initial declaration that a General Emergency may exist is based on a situation which may have the potential for serious radiological consequences to the health and safety of the general public. A Site Area Emergency most likely would have been declared earlier and, if events are in progress which may involve core degradation with potential for loss of containment integrity, a General Emergency should be declared. For a General Emergency, all emergency response facilities are activated. The Emergency Director will promptly notify State and local authorities and the NRC of the plant status and reasons for declaring a General Emergency. The Emergency Director will also make recommendations for offsite emergency measures to be taken. The responsibility for this recommendation to offsite authorities may not be delegated .

  • Section 4: Emergency Measures
  • The following sections provide the guidelines for implementing procedures of the four emergency classifications and the Local Radiation Emergency condition which are described in Section 3.0. 4.1 Local Radiation Emergency:

A Local Radiation Emergency condition is established to

  • provide a level of response to a radiological incident which is less serious than the four NRG Emergency Classifications.

It has no effect offsite and has no potential for any offsite effects. There is normally no notification or action required by offsite agencies. a) EPIP-1-13, Local Radiation Emergency, contains the details of the response. In general, any individual aware of an incident shall notify the Control Room of this fact. b) The Control Room shall announce over the plant public address (PA) system that a local evacuation of the area is required. c) All personnel in the affected area shall leave the area as directed. 4.1.1 Subsequent Action: The situation will be evaluated and actions taken to terminate the emergency. The plant shall determine the course of action to be taken to clean up the affected area, correct the cause of the incident, and return the area to normal operation. . State and county authorities may be notified of the incident for informational purposes but no actions are required offsite. NOTE: Sections 4.2, 4.3, 4.4 and 4.5 are NRG Emergency Classifications that require State, county, and NRG notification. 4.2 Unusual Event: The purpose of the Unusual Event Classification is to provide early warning of minor events which could lead to more serious consequences. The Unusual Event conditions indicate a potential degradation of the level of safety of the plant. No releases of radioactive material requiring offsite response or monitoring are expected unless further degradation of safety systems occurs. Declaring an Unusual Event assures that the first step for any response later found to be necessary has been carried out by bringing onsite staff and offsite organizations to a state of readiness, thereby providing a system for handling information and decision-making. The NRC, State and county authorities will be promptly notified to assure that the first step of any necessary response can be initiated. The Plant Manager will be notified of the Unusual Event Emergency to bring the plant staff to a state of readiness and provide for responsible decision-making. On-shift resources can be* augmented so as to be able to assess and respond as needed. Offsite organizations will stand by for further information or closeout.

  • Ginna Annex Exelon Nuclear 4.3 Alert: Events of the Alert classification involve actual or potential degradation of the level of safety of the plant or a security threat that involves probable life-threatening risk to site personnel or damage to site equipment because of hostile action. Any radioactivity released during an Alert would result in exposures well below the guidelines for required offsite action. By assuring that emergency personnel are available to respond if the situation should become worse, protective actions could be taken much quicker, such as performing confirmatory radiation monitoring and providing offsite authorities with current status information.

For events which fall in the Alert classification, Ginna Station will promptly notify the NRC, State and county authorities of the Alert status and the reasons for the classification. All Ginna emergency facilities will be staffed so as to assist in the assessment of the incident and determination of a proper response. Periodic plant status updates will be given to offsite authorities who will also be advised of any change in the classification of the incident. Unless they are already in the plant, persons so notified will report to the plant, the Emergency Operations Facility -(EOF) or, if directed by Security,. to the Training Center, where jobs are assigned in line with the trained capabilities of the individual. Procedures provide for staffing of all Ginna emergency facilities. The organization is normally activated via an automated system activated from the Control Room . The Joint Information Center will be staffed by Company, county and State personnel in order to coordinate public information activities warranted by the emergency. Offsite agencies will activate primary response centers to standby status and will alert other key emergency personnel, such as monitoring teams and communications

centers, the Emergency Alert System, or law enforcement.

They will be ready to escalate to a more severe classification, if appropriate . December 2017 GN 4-2 EP-AA-1012 (Revision

  • Ginna Annex Exelon Nuclear 4.4 Site Area Emergency:

4.5 A Site Area Emergency is declared when events are in progress or have occurred which involve actual or likely major failures of plant functions needed for the 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 equipment needed for the protection of the public; or (2) that prevent effective access to equipment needed for the protection of the public. Any releases are not expected to exceed EPA Protective Action Guideline exposure levels except near the site boundary. In the event that a Site Area Emergency is declared, the actions to be taken by various plant* groups are detailed in the implementing procedures for the plant. The Control Room will make the initial notification to the NRC, State and county authorities. The purpose of the declaration of a Site Area Emergency is to assure that personnel required for evacuation of near-site areas are at their duty stations if such an evacuation is called for. Also, offsite agency authorities will be available at primary response centers for consultation and updates on the situation, and to provide information to the public. General Emergency: The General Emergency will be declared when the conditions described in Section 3.5 exist. Actions associated with the General Emergency declaration are to: (1) initiate protective actions for the public as predetermined or as indicated by actual releases; (2) provide continuous assessment of information from Ginna Station and offsite measurements; (3) provide consultation with offsite authorities; and (4) keep the public informed through updates of the situation through the, Joint Information Center. 4.5.1 Company Actions: A General Emergency requires that all actions prescribed for the Site Area Emergency (see Section 4.4) be implemented. The NRC, State of New.York, and county authorities, who will already have been contacted for lower classifications, will now be updated. The Emergency Director or designee may request the assistance of offsite groups, which could include REAC/TS, Company medical department, and Department of Energy, Brookhaven Radiological Assistance Program. Technical personnel from other Company departments and/or consultants will be called as needed. The EOF Radiation Protection Manager has the responsibility to determine the magnitude and extent of the incident by evaluating information from the Control Room and the Offsite Monitoring Teams. This information will consist of instrumentation readings and any survey results available. EOF staff shall update the State and local authorities with new survey data and other information and recommend protective actions. Protective action recommendations will be based on NUREG-0654 / FEMA-REP-1, Rev. 1, Supplement 3, "Criteria for Preparation and Evaluation

Ginna Annex Exelon Nuclear 4.9 Onsite Protective Actions:

  • During a radiological emergency, protective actions will be employed as follows:
  • 4.9.1 Radiation Protection During an Emergency:

During a radiological emergency, precautions and limitations to minimize doses shall be observed by personnel entering an incident area. In general, doses will be limited to station administrative control levels for occupational radiation exposure in accordance with station procedures. Every effort shall be made to keep exposure As Low As Reasonably Achievable (ALARA) while accomplishing the necessary tasks. Radiation exposures in an emergency shall be evaluated on an ALARA basis. Offsite Monitoring Teams are limited to 1 Rem TEDE dose during the incident unless special permission is given by the Corporate Emergency Director or the EOF Radiation Protection Manager. Information on post-accident doses is provided in Chapter 15 of the Updated Final Safety Analysis Report (UFSAR) for Ginna Station. For lifesaving actions such as the removal of an injured person and providing first aid, ambulance

service, medical treatment or other actions required to red.uce severe health effects to the public, volunteers may receive greater than 25 Rem TEDE whole body exposure.

The limit set for performing assessment actions or undertaking mitigative actions to prevent substantial radiological releases is 25 Rem TEDE. Authorization to receive doses greater than station administrative limits can be given only by the Corporate Emergency Director . Offsite Monitoring Teams will consist of at least two persons. All entries into high radiation areas must be carefully planned from available survey data, review of personnel current exposure

records, and pre-planning of the activities to be accomplished.

Whenever planning to enter an incident area, use the applicable EP Implementing procedures to adequately protect the responders by determining the appropriate survey instruments, protective

clothing, dosimetry, respiratory protection or other resources needed. Close communications between team members shall be maintained as much as possible.

The radiation protection program during an emergency will be based on the program defined in the RP series of procedures. Dosimeters are available in the onsite and offsite emergency facilities for the Offsite Monitoring Teams. Provisions for round-the-clock capability to issue dosimeters and maintain dose records will be established to meet long-term needs of the plant procedures. The . capability to read dosimeters will be used to maintain control of individual doses. 4.9.2 Site Evacuation: EP-CE-113, Personnel Protective

Actions, provides specific instructions for evacuation of the Protected Area. The evacuation alarm (special tone) will be activated from the Control Room per direction from the Shift Emergency Director

. Upon becoming aware of the evacuation alarm, all personnel, except those whose duties during an emergency specify otherwise, shall immediately leave their area of work by the nearest exit. All building exits to the outdoor~ may be December 2017 GN 4-10 EP-AA-1012 (Revision

  • *
  • Ginna Annex Exelon Nuclear used. Normal egress of the radiologically controlled area should be used if possible.

If not possible, workers should use the nearest exit and remove their protective

clothing, if worn, as directed by procedures.

Personnel will walk to the Assembly ~rea and stand by for further instructions. All dosimeters will be retained by the individual. The 11Assembly Area11 refers to the Training Center or alternate locations defined in emergency procedures depending on plume direction and habitability considerations. The escort accompanying any visitors is responsible to see that visitors are taken to the Assembly Area. Other personnel who may be onsite outside the Protected Area would hear the site evacuation signal. After evacuation of the plant areas, an accounting will be made of all personnel who were onsite. Accountability of personnel is carried out by plant security using the* 11onsite11 computer list to determine that all persons are accounted for. The Security Shift Supervisor or TSC Security Coordinator initiates a process to verify accountability for all individuals inside the protected area. Drills have indicated that this process can be completed within 30 minutes. This process is verified to be complete by the Corporate Emergency Director using their checklist.

  • Cars will be monitored and surveyed as necessary before they are allowed to leave the site. Personnel leaving the site will take a route selected by the Corporate Emergency
Director, after consultation with the Wayne County Emergency Operations Center (EOC), giving consideration to the wind direction or road impediments.

(see Figure 4.2) Before leaving, persons will be monitored for contamination.

Normally, private cars will be used for leaving the site. If cars are contaminated, buses will be brought in for the evacuation.

The Corporate Emergency Director will consult with the Wayne County Emergency Director concerning numbers of evacuating personnel and vehicles, and which evacuation routes will be used. 4.9.3 Emergency Medical Treatment: All emergency medical treatment will be carried out using an emergency medical treatment plan. This plan specifies the types of medical action to be taken in any type of radiation or contamination emergency. First aid team members maintain their proficiency through Red Cross First Aid Training or equivalent as a minimum. The Emergency Plan Implementing Procedure for Emergency Exposures and Kl, provides guidelines for the administration and use of potassium iodide (Kl) for onsite personnel and Offsite Monitoring Teams. The determination of need for Kl is the responsibility of the TSC Radiation Protection Manager or the EOF Radiation Protection Manager. Approval of the Corporate Emergency Director is required. Radio-protective drugs will be issued for the general public only if approved by the New York State Department of Health . December 2017 GN 4-11 EP-AA-1012 (Revision

records, sign-in sheets, log sheets, etc. The Corporate Emergency Director and Station Emergency Director will determine the necessity for a search and rescue operation.

Such an operation will be coordinated by the Shift Emergency Director and the TSC Director. The search and rescue team will consist of at least two persons including a Radiation Protection technician. The search should start at the last known location or work assignment of the unaccounted-for individual. Radiation surveys should be made as the team progresses. It may be necessary to administer first aid to the individual after he or she is located. The Corporate Emergency

Director, TSC Director or Control Room shall be advised of the situation

  • Ginna Annex Exelon Nuclear 4.9.5 Decontamination:

A Radiation Protection procedure provides guidance for graduated measures to be used for decontamination. The objective of decontamination is to prevent the spread of radioactive material on the individual, to the environment or to other personnel and to reduce the resultant dose. Decontamination is essentially the removal of radioactive material and is performed starting with the highest level of contamination using the simplest procedures. Continued. decontamination may show diminishing effectiveness and require a decision to stop or use more potent agents. Decontamination kits, which contain items to decontaminate the skin and for wound cleansing, are available. Decontamination should continue until it is no longer effective but not so as to abrade skin. This procedure should be effective against iodine and other contaminants. If personnel cannot be decontaminated to the limits of Procedure RP-AA-350, "Personnel Contamination Monitoring, Decontamination and Reporting", Radiation Emergency Assistance Center/Training Site (REAC/TS) may be contacted. Instruments are available to determine contamination levels of personnel or equipment and the effectiveness of decontamination. Waste drums are available as containers for radioactive waste and emergency clothing is available, if needed. 4.9.6 Offsite Authorities Actions: 4.10 Offsite authorities will provide assistance as needed to protect the public. In the event a Site Area Emergency is declared, this may include activating the public notification system and providing .information and periodic updates of the situation through the EAS (Emergency Alert System) and/or press briefings. Resources at primary response centers will be augmented by calling other emergency services to standby status and dispatching certain emergency personnel to initiate their functions (i.e., monitoring and communications). Information from the licensee, monitoring teams and weather stations will be continually evaluated with regard to changes in protective actions already initiated for the public, such as sheltering of people or milk animals. Monitoring results and any actions taken should be reported to the licensee and others having a need to know. Major Release to Lake Ontario or Deer Creek: If a major release to Lake Ontario or Deer Creek occurs which exceeds the Technical Specifications limit or the limiting concentrations specified in 1 OCFR20, Appendix B, Table II, Column 2, at the point of discharge, the following actions shall be taken: The release will be classified per EP-AA-1012, Addendum 3, Radiological Emergency Plan Emergency Action Levels (EALs) for Ginna Station, and appropriate notifications will be made, if necessary, per the classification and corresponding procedures. The Ontario Water District will be notified.

At Ginna Station, there are always Control Room personnel to originate calls. New York State has responsibility for communications to other counties which may fall within the ingestion pathway exposure zone. Any contacts with Canada would also be through the State agencies. To contact appropriate offsite agencies, the telephones would normally be used as previously noted in Section 5.2.2, with direct lines or the commercial telephone system. If necessary; offsite agencies can be contacted using satellite phones . Communications with Federal emergency response organizations consists of telephone contact to the Department of Energy, Brookhaven Radiological Assistance Program. This call would be made by the EOF Director per our letter of agreement with Brookhaven. Their assistance may also be requested by the State or Counties. The NRC Emergency Telecommunications System (ETS) consists of the NRC Emergency Notification System (ENS) "red phones". They are installed in the Control Room, the EOF and the Technical Support Center (including the NRC office). NRC Health Physics Network phones are also available in the Technical Support Center and EOF.

Both computer systems are designed to assist Control Room operafors and emergency response personnel in the decision-making process during normal and abnormal plant conditions. 5.3.2 Process Radiation Monitoring System: 5.3.3 The process radiation monitoring system provides indications and alarms which permit assessment of in-plant conditions, as well as providing certain automatic actuations. The general functions of these systems are as follows: a) To indicate primary system leakage and fuel rod failures. b) To indicate radioactivity levels in selected process systems. c) To indicate radioactivity released through vents or drains. d) To provide visible and audible alarms in the Control Room when a significant increase in radiation occurs in systems or areas. e) To alarm in the Control Room on monitoring equipment failure. f) To shut down a purge or a release if radioactivity reaches the alarm set points and thereby avoid exceeding the release limits. Effluent Monitors: Effluent monitors available at Ginna are listed in Tables 5.1A and 5.1 B. Of these monitors, particular importance is placed upon the plant vent monitors and liquid release monitor; the former because, as described in Section 3.0, Classification of Emergencies, in combination with other monitors, they indicate the need for site evacuation and protective actions for the public; the latter because it indicates the need for protective measures with regard to the use of lake water. Alarm set points are based upon the maximum

  • allowable environmental radioactivity concentration and dose which might result from a release and set at a fraction of those values. Monitor calibration
factors, correlating monitor readings and vent concentrations can be used to estimate the release rate. From vent concentrations, the offsite dose or concentration
  • levels can be calculated.

Table 5.1A summarizes these monitors and alarm functions. Several approaches are available to supplement effluent monitor readings for the assessment of release rates and projected doses. High range monitors have been established for the estimation of noble gas release from the plant ventilation exhaust point in the event that normal range effluent monitors are off scale or inoperable. Periodic grab samples of effluent release paths would also be used to quantify and further refine estimated releases from the plant. Table 5.1 B summarizes the SPING 4 high range monitoring system.

  • Ginna Annex Exelon Nuclear If no release data is available, a method for assessment of release rates is used in conjunction with the X/Q values and offsite concentrations.

The release rate of radioactive material from the plant can be calculated from the measured airborne concentration at a given downwind sample location and the X/Q value for that location. Field Team survey results can be used to back calculate doses at the site boundary and offsite. The Manual of Protective Action Guides and Protective Actions for Nuclear Incidents (EPA 400-R-92-001 ), NUREG-0133, Preparation of Radiological Effluent Technical Specifications for Nuclear Power Plants (October 1978) and Regulatory Guide 1.109 Rev. 1, Calculation of Annual Doses to Man from Routine Releases of Reactor Effluents for the Purpose of Evaluation Compliance with 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix I (October 1977) provide the methodology for relating radiological measurements in various environmental media or effluent monitor readings to offsite dose or dose rates. Meteorological conditions can be factored into these calculations. A computer program operating on a personal computer is available in the Control Room, TSC and EOF. This system provides multiple methods of calculating downwind dose rates and airborne contamination levels. The sophisticated computer

program, which uses the methods for environmental dose calculations required by Federal regulations, is also available to assess doses during and after an emergency.

Additional information on the radiological consequences of a variety of accidents can be found in Chapter 15 of the Ginna Updated Final Safety Analysis Report. External dose or dose rates from surface contamination or airborne radioactivity are determined by direct field measurements (dosimeter or survey meter). Internal dose commitments from key isotopes via water or airborne pathways would be evaluated using the uptake rates, dose conversion

factors, and other pathway parameters given in EPA 400, NUREG-0133 and Regulatory Guide 1.109. Computer software is available that uses these dose calculation models to determine the radiological dose assessment.

In this manner, rapid determination of dose estimates from multiple pathways may be made for comparison with protective action guides . December 2017 GN 5-10 EP-AA-1012 (Revision

pressure, 3 channels for Pressurizer level, 4 channels for Steam Generator level, 4 channels for Reactor Coolant average temperature, 2 channels for steam flow and feedwater flow for each Steam Generator.

Along with these are indications of containment conditions, which include 6 channels for containment

pressure, sump level and pump actuation, safety injection recirculation sump level indicator, 4 channels for fan cooler condensate level, and 6 channels for dew point temperature.

Greater detail for the process and containment monitors is given in the UFSAR, Chapter 7. Seismic and hydrologic emergencies are treated by Procedure ER-SC.4 and SC.2 respectively. A seismic monitor (accelerograph) is located in the intermediate building sub-basement and a lake level indication is available from the plant computers or the Screen House. Information concerning seismic or hydrologic events can be obtained from offsite agencies such as the NYS geologist at the State Education Department or at Cornell University Geology Department. 5.3.9 Plant Laboratories: The laboratory area of the plant is maintained for the purpose of monitoring the condition of a variety of fluid streams and stored fluids including: the activity and isotopic content; for assessing the degree of contamination of plant areas, movable items and personnel; and for . storing, calibrating and maintaining portable and laboratory radiation measuring instruments. Separate laboratory services are available at Exelon's Ft Smallwood Road Complex in Baltimore, MD for assessing the effect of the plant operation on the environs. By the use of a Post-Accident Sampling System located in the controlled area of the Intermediate

Building, samples can be drawn from reactor coolant, containment atmosphere, and containment sump. These samples are processed from a remote control board to open valves, collect the sample, and read out results of the analysis.

Analyses for chlorides and radioactive isotopes can be completed on diluted, shielded grab samples in a laboratory facility within the times required by NUREG-0737, Clarification of TMI Action Plan Requirements. Samples can be taken and analyzed without exceeding personnel doses of 5 Rem. This system will also be used for normal Operations samples. In addition to laboratory facilities within the plant, some capability is provided at the Training Center for use in assessing the offsite effects of an incident. The chemistry laboratories of the nuclear plants at the Oswego, New York, site are also available to supplement the Ginna onsite laboratory. 5.3.10 Meteorological Monitoring: Data on meteorological conditions is available to the Control Room for use in assessing the consequences of an airborne release of radioactive matter. All meteorological measuring

devices, with the exception of the precipitation measuring system, are mounted on a 250 feet weather tower located at the Ginna plant site. Wind speed, wind direction and temperature are measured at the 33, 150, and 250 feet levels. The 33 foot wind speed and direction sensor December 2017 GN 5-16 EP-AA-1012 (Revision

  • Ginna Annex Exelon Nuclear readings are recorded on the Radiation Monitoring System Panel in the Ginna Control Room. Temperatures at three tower levels are also indicated in the Control Room by digital display.

This information will be relayed to the NRC Operations Center and the New York State and County EOCs. Meteorological data is available continuously and is also programmed for printout at 15 minute ave*rages, accessible from the TSC and EOF. Rainfall is measured by a tipping bucket rain gauge located at the base of the Ginna weather tower. Wind direction, wind speed, and temperature indications from the three tower elevations are also registered on the Ginna Plant Process Computer System. Instrumentation and calibration procedures associated with the Ginna meteorological program* are in conformance with Regulatory Guide 1.23. The weather tower is equipped with redundant sensing devices for use as backup indicators of wind speed, direction, temperature and temperature difference. All meteorological data will be collected and computer processed to provide estimates of radioactive materials transport and diffusion under routine and accident conditions. Power for the meteorological measurements system and associated equipment is supplied by an electrical feed separate from the plant. Means for remote interrogation of the meteorological system by telephone link is available to the TSC and EOF via computer terminals at each location. The Buffalo International Airport (National Weather Service) has meteorological instrumentation readings which can be accessed by private phone number on a 24 hour basis. A backup weather tower is located in close proximity south of the plant, and has a wind direction and speed recorder. Means for remote interrogation of the backup meteorological system is available at the TSC and EOF via computer terminal. An implementing procedure describes the method by which onsite meteorological information is used for the estimation of offsite radiation doses. Based upon wind conditions and determined atmospheric stability, estimates of downwind radioactivity concentrations and doses can be made by dose assessment staff using computerized calculation methods. 5.3.11 Environs Radiological Monitoring: Sampling systems are established for normal environmental sampling in the immediate area surrounding the plant and also in locations whose distance from the* plant roughly corresponds to 1/100th of the onsite radioactivity concentrations estimated from annual average atmospheric dispersion. These stations contain provisions for air sampling and for radiation dose measurement. Certain stations include precipitation collectors. They provide information about the extent of a general emergency and its effect on the environment, in accordance with appropriate implementing procedures. In addition, an array of dosimeters is in place at the site boundary, at the offsite sampling stations (approximately 10 miles) and at the onsite sampling stations. Up to 18 additional dosimeters have been placed at specified locations, which will add to the evaluation of doses throughout the Emergency Planning Zone. December 2017 GN 5-17 EP-AA-1012 (Revision

  • Ginna Annex Exelon Nuclear The placement of these dosimeters around Ginna Station for routine or accident radiation assessment is given in an environmental chemistry procedure

. Maps are included in that procedure so as to locate the TLDs for best coverage (Figure 5.2). The radiological program provided meets the minimum requirements of the NRC Radiological Assessment Branch Technical Position for Environmental Radiological Environmental Monitoring. Monitoring teams are quickly dispatched to follow designated routes for the field monitoring within the plume exposure zone. A Ginna Station procedure details the method used for the rapid field determination of airborne particulate and radioiodine concentrations following an accident in addition to radiation levels . . The procedure consists of operating a portable air sampler which contains a silver zeolite cartridge and particulate filter, followed by direct filter measurement with a count rate meter probe. The minimum sensitivity for iodine by this method, based upon a 6 minute sampling time, is approximately 2.3 E-8 microcurie/cc. It is recognized that under certain post-accident conditions, some unavoidable interference from noble gas or high background levels may affect the initial filter readings being taken in the field. The absorption of noble gases in the charcoal cartridge would lead to an overestimate of airborne radioiodine concentrations. Therefore, silver zeolite is used. If background levels are too high to determine a proper filter reading, filter measurements will be made at an alternate location out of the radiation plume. Air samples collected by Offsite Monitoring Teams from portable sampling devices and from fixed air monitoring systems may be evaluated using higher sensitivity methods with onsite or near-site analytical equipment (e.g., environmental laboratory) .

Emergency equipment for the various centers is described in step 5.1 .8. This equipment is checked periodically according to the schedule in implementing procedures to ensure that it is available and operable. Any instrument or equipment found to be in need of repair or calibration is immediately replaced from the Radiation Protection reserve supplies. Instruments are calibrated along with plant instruments by the Radiation Protection section according to RP procedures which meet the manufacturers' recommendations. Sufficient reserves of instruments and equipment are available to replace those that are removed from service for maintenance and/or calibration. 5.3.13 Public Alerting System: An alerting system to make the public aware of an incident at Ginna Station which may require protective action on their part has been developed and installed. The Ginna prompt public alerting system consists of 96 sirens. In addition, tone alert radios have been provided at schools, nursing homes and industrial establishments as an enhancement to the Public Alerting System. T.one alert radio locations are listed in EPG-1 , Emergency Preparedness Guideline. The special supplemental needs of transient populations at locations such as motels, parks and work camps will be addressed, a:s necessary, within the individual county plans. Instructions for transient populations have been distributed to such locations. The objectives of the Ginna prompt public alerting system are twofold: to alert the general public both indoors and outdoors of the existence of an emergency situation and to provide for the communication of* preliminary emergency information. The design objective for this system is to complete the initial alerting of the affected population within the Plume Exposure Pathway within 15 minutes after the notification of State and local governments by the Ginna. The system was designed to assure coverage of essentially 100% of the population within the 10 mile Emergency Planning Zone. The control of the system rests with the county officials within their respective borders. In Monroe County, the County Executive has this authority and, in Wayne County, it is the Chairman of the Board of Supervisors. Sirens are activated by the counties and maintained by Ginna. Tone alert radios are activated by a radio signal from the Emergency Alert System (EAS). The sirens activate for 3 to 5 minutes. 5.3.13.1 Siren Backup: A backup activation point is available in each county for activating the alert system should the primary transmitter fail. The siren portion of the alert system is designed to produce a minimum 1 OdB(C) above ambient sound levels in all portions of the Emergency Planning Zone or a sound level of at least 60 dB for population areas with <2,000 persons/mile or 70dB for population areas with >2,000 persons/mile.

  • Ginna Annex Exelon Nuclear The Technical Support Center has an activation point that can be used as a back-up for both Monroe and Wayne Counties.

Each county also has a method for back-up alerting. In the Wayne County portion of the 10-mile EPZ, route alerting is activated by the Wayne County EOC and carried out using loudspeakers mounted on county-owned emergency response vehicles. Monroe County's back-up alerting method is a mass-notification reverse-calling system that can send emergency alert messages to specific geographical areas. 5.3.13.2 Siren Testing: Siren reliability will be tested periodically at 3 levels of operation: 1 . Bi-weekly silent tests to verify system electronic components are functioning.

2. Quarterly manually-activated growl tests 3. Annual full duration audible tests of the entire system. Periodic surveys will be taken by the Federal Emergency Management Agency to determine any difficulties which may require corrective measures.

Alert system operations reliability is expected to be greater than 95%. Sirens are powered off the RG&E distribution system which has better than 99% availability. It is fed from the New York State Power Pool grid; therefore, it is not dependent on the operation of Ginna. The Company has the responsibility for maintaining the siren alert system operable. The location of sirens is given in the Ginna Alert and Notification System . (ANS) Design Report. A siren verification system is installed providing remote feedback capability to both counties and Ginna from all 96 siren units. The system is used to verify proper siren activation and to verify whether inadvertent siren activations have occurred. When appropriate, growl testing of the sirens will be conducted following preventive or corrective maintenance. Depending on the scope of the maintenance, the work order will determine if growl testing is appropriate. 5.3.13.3 Emergency Alert System: If the sirens are activated, the Emergency Alert System (EAS) will notify the public of the actions they should take. During an emergency at Ginna, activation of the EAS will be the result of a cooperative decision between lead officials of Wayne and Monroe Counties and New York State. In extenuating circumstances, activation requests may be made unilaterally by one of those entities. Sample messages to be given over the EAS via radio and television are part of the county procedures. A calendar that is distributed annually provides information regarding the system and appropriate actions to be taken. The Wayne County Public Information Officer (PIO) will notify the Local Primary (LP-1) station of an imminent EAS broadcast and will coordinate the broadcast time for the message. If Ginna's JIC has not been activated, or all December 2017 GN 5-21 EP-AA-1012 (Revision

The shielding includes supplemental shields in front of the containment personnel hatch and 20 inch walls, east and south sides and the roof of the Control Room. The equipment access hatch is shielded by a 3 feet thick concrete shadow shield and a 1 foot concrete roof to reduce scattered dose levels. Concrete walls and ceiling of the Technical Support Center provide shielding. 5.4.2 Protective Ventilation: During normal operation a varying amount of fresh outside air is admitted to the Control Room via the normal Control Room ventilation system. If sensors detect high radiation levels, chlorine gas or ammonia gas in the Control Room outside air intake, the Control Room is automatically

isolated, the normal Control Room ventilation system is secured, and two trains of the Control Room Emergency Air Treatment System (GREATS) will automatically start. GREATS provides charcoal and high efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filtration for removal of radioactive particles and gaseous iodine from the Control Room atmosphere.

The Technical Support Center has filtered fresh air makeup, with charcoal filtration, to meet habitability requirements for occupancy. December 2017 GN 5-22 EP-AA-1012 (Revision

A procedure to alert these people and put the EOF into operation is part of the station implementing procedures. EP-CE-115 details the establishment of a Recovery organization. The Corporate Emergency Director will notify all response organizations that recovery operations are underway. In the recovery phase, all actions will be carefully planned by station supervisory personnel in conjunction with the Recovery Team, the Technical Support Center personnel and the Ginna senior management. Planning for recovery will include evaluation of survey data, review of exposures

incurred, projection of manpower and equipment needs, and re-entry offsite monitoring team activities.

Actions prescribed upon re-entry include a comprehensive survey of the plant to define radiological problem areas. Based on survey results, high radiation areas and areas of contamination will be isolated and posted and, if possible, portable shielding will be used, as appropriate. Upon evaluation of plant conditions, further activities for making necessary

repairs, decontamination and restoration to normal operations will be outlined by Ginna senior management in accordance with standard Radiation Protection practices.

Personnel radiation exposure during the recovery stage of the incident shall be closely controlled and documented. Individual exposures shall be in accordance with 1 OCFR20 limits. Corporate management and Emergency Response Organization personnel will augment the plant staff in long-term recovery operations. a) Corporate groups such as Business Continuity may provide logistical support using corporate emergency plans, protocols and procedures . b) Technical support may be provided by the Engineering Services Department and consultants under the direction of the Manager, Nuclear Services.

He/she will act as liaison with private organizations in developing plans which augment the Company plans.

  • Emergency Classification Levels -Four Emergency Classification Levels have been established by the NRC and incorporated into the Emergency Plan Annex and State and county plans. Each Emergency Classification requires a different degree of response actions by the state, counties and the Company.

The four emergency classification levels are: Unusual Event -Events are in progress 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. Alert -Events are in progress 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. Site Area Emergency -Events are in progress or have occurred which involve actual or likely major failures of plant functions needed for protection of the public or hostile action that results in intentional damage or malicious acts: (1) toward site personnel or equipment that could lead to the likely failure of equipment needed for the protection of the public; 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 Protection Action Guideline exposure levels beyond the site boundary. General Emergency -Events are in progress 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 December 2017 GN 8-1 EP-AA-1012 (Revision

-An individual who has received appropriate training in the actions to be taken in the event of an incident at Ginna Station. He has full authority and responsibility for meeting the emergency.

  • Emergency Plan Implementing Procedures (EPIPs),

Procedures used to govern actions of the ERO to declare events and respond to a classified emergency. The following types of procedures are considered EPIPs: Fleet Facility Operations Procedures -Governing procedure for each Emergency Response Facility directing use of Position Specific Checklists. Fleet Functional Procedure -Standard procedures directing actions to complete a specific function (such as Classification or Emergency Exposure Controls) Position Specific Checklist -Checklist directing actions of an ERO position. Station Specific Functional Procedure -Procedures directing actions to complete a station specific function (such as Dose Assessment or Core Damage Assessment)

  • Emergency Planning Zone (EPZ) -An area around Ginna Station divided into Emergency Response Planning Areas (ERPAs) for which preplanned actions to meet possible hazards have been developed.

Actions to meet site hazards are the responsibility of the Company. Protective actions in the Emergency Planning Zone (approximately 1 O miles) are the responsibility of the county organizations. New York State is responsible for actions to limit ingestion exposure in the zone out to approximately 50 miles.

  • Emergency Operations Facility (EOF) -A facility located at 1255 Research Forest, Macedon, NY, from which additional Company personnel, consultants, NRC and other individuals can provide assistance to the plant in evaluating any emergency, gaining control of it and continuing the recovery operation.

  • Ginna Annex Exelon Nuclear 1. Appendix 5 SUMMARIES OF INTERFACING EMERGENCY PLANS New York State Radiological Emergency Preparedness Plan: The purpose of the NYS Plan is to minimize the risk to the health of the inhabitants of the State in the event of a radiological emergency.

This will be accomplished by identifying measures to prevent and mitigate such an emergency; by developing mechanisms to coordinate

Federal, State, local and private sector resources, during and after such an emergency; and by providing for recovery following a radiological emergency.

The New York State Department of Health is the state agency having primary responsibility in this area. The New York State Public Health Law gives the Commissioner of Health broad authority for protecting the health and life of the people of New York State, including protection against ionizing radiation. The State Sanitary Code, Part 16, which implements the Public Health Law, includes requirements relating to accidents, emergencies, or incidents. Article 2-B of the New York State Executive Law (State and .Local Natural and Manmade Disaster Preparedness) created a State Disaster Preparedness Commission. This Commission is charged with a wide variety of power and responsibilities, designed to provide a comprehensive emergency system to prevent or react to emergencies or disasters within the State. Among these responsibilities are: (1) to develop and maintain a State plan and to assist local government in developing such plans; (2) to direct State disaster operations and coordinate State operations with local disaster operations; (3) to coordinate recovery operations and recovery assistance; an.d (4) to provide training to assure that responsible personnel are familiar with plans and procedures. Where, by tradition, emergency plans have been primarily concerned with response activities, New York State has adopted an overall emergency preparedness system which includes two interrelated critical phases. (1) Preventive/Mitigation: This is the initial phase of activities that is aimed at eliminating or reducing the probability of the occurrence of a radiological emergency, and at minimizing the impact of a radiological emergency on public health and property. These activities include the development of new legislation and the development of preparedness plans and training programs. Prevention/mitigation activities form a basis for enhancing the quality of response operations. (2) Response: The response phase follows the identification or notification of an emergency. Generally, response activities are planned to minimize the adverse impact on public health and to protect property, to the extent possible, through emergency assistance. These activities include accident December 2017 AS-1 EP-AA-1012 (Revision

They also reduce the probability of secondary damage and speed recovery operations. Wayne County Radiological Emergency Response Plan (CRERP): When considering radiological emergencies, preparedness,

response, and recovery are general responsibilities which are shared by all levels of government and the nuclear facility operators.

These emergencies will be dealt with at the local or county level until such time that the county's resources have been exhausted. At this point, in addition to technical guidance and evaluation, the county will request state assistance through the New York State Emergency Management Office (SEMO). The mission of the County Emergency Response Organization and the County Radiological Emergency Response Plan (CRERP) is to protect the health and safety of the general public of Wayne County in the unlikely event of a radiological release incident at the Ginna Nuclear Power Plant. In order to successfully execute this mission it will be necessary to perform the following operations: 1 . Monitor and assess the scope and magnitude of the incident;

2. Evaluate and decide which protective action response options should be initiated;
3. Implement the appropriate protective action response option (or combination of options, if necessary.)

The successful implementation of the CRERP will depend on the efficient and effective coordination with other emergency response organizations. Specifically, the CRERP will be closely coordinated with the RERP of Monroe County; the New York State Radiological Emergency Plan; and the Ginna Station Nuclear Emergency Response Plan.
