The exercise willinvolve the onsite and offsite TVAemergency organizations, and to a limited extent, the State of Alabama and local governments. This exercise is partial participation exercise and the Joint Information Center willnot be activated. Participants in this exercise may include, but are not limited to, the following: A. Browns Ferry Nuclear Plant B. TVA Central Emergency Control Center C. Alabama Emergency Management Agency (AEMA), Montgomery, Alabama D. Alabama Department of Radiological Health, Montgomery, Alabama E. Lawrence County Government, Moulton, Alabama F. Limestone County Government, Athens, Alabama G. Morgan County Government, Decatur, Alabama H. Lauderdale County Government, Florence, Alabama I. Tri-County District Health Services J. Nuclear Regulatory Commission K. Emergency Broadcast System L. Local Support Agencies in Risk Counties M. Alabama Department of Safety (Highway Patrol) N. Department of Energy (DOE) Scenario Con sdentiality Emergency Preparedness exercises are conducted prior to the issuance of an initial fullpower license to a facility and then on an annual basis to comply with the requirements established in 10 CFR 50.47 "Standards for Licenses and Preparedness for Production and Utilization Facilities". Annual exercises are conducted to allow the NRC assessment of the continual state of onsite emergency preparedness. This assessment is accomplished by TVA's demonstration of its ability to provide protective measures in the event of a radiological emergency and protect the health and safety of the public. This demonstration is accomplished by an evaluation of the Plant staff/Emergency organization's response to a radiological emergency scenario developed by TVApersonnel in cooperation with State authorities for offsite participation. In order to provide for a true assessment of TVA's emergency preparedness, it is imperative that the content of scenarios developed for the annual radiological emergency exercise not be divulged prior to the exercise. A compromised annual scenario would place the credibility of TVAin jeopardy and could have serious legal implications in the area of compliance with regulatory license requirements. As a result, the content of scenarios developed for annual radiological exercises is to be considered "C NIiIDENTIAL"and is ~nt to be disclosed to exercise participants or any individual not directly involved with the scenario development process prior to the conduct of the exercise. Objectives 9RO>VNS FERRY NUCLEARPLANT (SFN) ).992 EMERGENCY PLAN EXERCISE GOALS AND OBJKCTXVES The 1992 BB4 Radiological Emergency Plan Exercise will be a full scale exercise consisting of full participation bv the TVA and partial participation by the State and Local emergency response agencies. erci e al TVA's goals for the 1992 BFH exercise are as follows: 1. Allow plant and offsite personnel to demonstrate and test the capabilities of the emergency response organization to protect the health and safety of plant. personnel and the general public in accordance with the Nuc3.ear Power —Radiological Emergency Plan (NP-REP), BFN Emergency Plan Implementing Procedures (EPIPs), and Central Emergency Control Center (CECC) EPIPs. 2. Identify significant weaknesses, strengths and areas which may be improved in emexgency response capabilities, organization or emergency plans. 3 ~ Pxovide an interactive exercise to ensure proficiency is maintained in plant and offsite emergency response capabilities. erci e 'ectiv A. Control Room/Simulator Objectives 1. Demonstrate the ability of the Shift Operations Supervisor (SOS) to recognize conditions, classify emergencies, and make required notifications in a timely manner. 2. Demonstrate the Control Room staff's ability to assume the initial responsibilities of the Technical Support Center (TSC), Operations Support Center (OSC), and CECC prior to their activation. 3. Demonstrate the ability of the SOS to manage Control Room activities in a manner to prevent interference with the classification, analysis, or mitigation of an accident. 4. Demonstrate the ability of the Control Room staff to organize, dispatch and txack response teams as needed until the OSC is func tional- 5. Demonstrate the ability to perform a precise and clear transfer of responsibilities from the Control Room staff to the TSC staff. 6. Demonstrate the ability to recognize problems that cannot be quickly resolved by the Control Room staff and their deferxal to the TSC for resolution. 7. Demonstrate the ability of the Shift Operations Supervisor to periodically inform the Control Room staff of the status of the emergency and of actions currently being planned by the TSC. COC4:6298E Page 1 8/19/92 Demonstrate the ability of the Control Room staff to keep onsite personnel apprised of the emergency status through periodic PA system announcements, prior to activation of the TSC. 9- Demonstrate the ability of the Control Room staff to use proper procedures. 10- Demonstrate the ability of the Control Room staff, through detailed logkeeping, to maintain an accurate chronological account of equipment and plant status including the corrective actions taken. Demonstrate the ability of the Control Room staff, through an effective command and control process, to make a timely determination of the cause of an incident and perform mitigating actions to place the unit in a safe and stable condition. 12. Demonst'rate the ability to provide an effective flow of information between the Control Room, TSC, OSC, HRC, and CECC. 13. Demonstrate the adequacy of Simulator/Control Room facilities, resources, and equipment to support emergency operations. ]4. Demonstrate the Control Room staff's ability to continuously evaluate available information and redefine/confirm conditions and event classification. Demonstrate the adequacy of Simulator/Control Room communications to support emergency operations. 9. Technical Support Center Objectives Demonstrate the ability to alert and mobilize TSC emergency response personnel and activate the TSC in a timely manner. 2. Demonstrate the Site Emergency Director's {SED) ability to provide effective command and control and manage TSC activities in a manner to prevent interference with the classification, analysis, or mitigation of an event. 3. Demonstrate the problem-solving capabilities of the TSC staff in support of the effort to identify the causes of an incident, mitigate the consequences, and place the unit in
