Insofar as emergency planning and preparedness requirements are concerned, 10 CFR 50.47(d) provides that a license authorizing fuel loading and/or low-power testing and training (up to 5 percent of the rated power) may be issued after a finding is made by the NRC that the state of onsite emergency preparedness provides reasonable assurance that adequate protective measures can and will be taken in the event of a radiological emergency. The assessment of the applicant’s onsite emergency plan will be based on the pertinent standards in 10 CFR 50.47(b) and the requirements of Appendix E to 10 CFR Part 50. However, the acceptability of an applicant’s emergency plans will be reviewed against the standards with offsite aspects presented in 10 CFR 50.47(d)(1)-(7). 14. Where an applicant for an OL or COL asserts that its inability to demonstrate compliance with the offsite emergency planning requirements of 10 CFR 50.47(b) is wholly or substantially the result of the non-participation of State and/or local governments, an operating license may be issued if the applicant demonstrates to the Commission’s satisfaction those elements listed in 10 CFR 50.47(c)(1)(i)-(iii). (See 10 CFR 50.47(c)(1) and 10 CFR 52.79(a)(22)(ii).) Supplement 1 to NUREG-0654/FEMA-REP-1, Rev. 1, provides guidance for the development, review, and evaluation of utility offsite radiological emergency response planning and preparedness, for those situations in which State and/or local governments decline to participate in emergency planning. 15. The minimum acceptance criteria for all ESP applications, located in 10 CFR 52.17(b)(1), require that ESP applications identify physical characteristics unique to the Second Draft Rev. 3 - Sep 2006
