Updated Final Safety Analysis Report - (STS-004-002)approach the established dose limit. As a result, the acceptability of the ship's location should bedependent on MARAD safety analysis and prior notification to the NRC. Because MARAD hasinitiated and directed the towing of hundreds of vessels to layberths, repair yards and the reservefleets, towing operations incident to relocating the NSS are straightforward and essentially routine.In approving the Technical Specification change that allowed the NSS to be towed, berthed, moored ordrydocked in any U.S. domestic location having a U.S. Maritime Administration approved Port OperatingPlan, the NRC concluded:Given that there is little possibility that any event could lead to a dose approaching the establishedlimit to the public, any difference between the ship being at JRRF or any domestic location with anapproved Port Operating Plan is negligible.Following implementation of License Amendment 13, Port Operating Plans are approved by MARADand submitted to the NRC for information.3.2 Ship Movement and Port Operating Criteria3.2.1 PurposeNotwithstanding the changes described in Section 3.1, the NSS remains a waterborne, mobile nuclearfacility. The ability to move the ship and berth it in various locations, for various purposes, is anevolution that remains inherent to the facility. The following Ship Movement and Port Operating Criteriaare consolidated from the several licensing precedents cited in Section 3.1, and provide a single source,contemporary guideline for these activities.3.2.2 Ship Movement CriteriaThe ship movement criteria define the basic parameters under which routine movement of the NSS maybe conducted. Emergency ship movements may be made for a variety of reasons, such as shipboard orshoreside fire, allisions and collisions, security threats, and heavy weather. In such cases the emergencymovement of the vessel will be coordinated with, or directed by the United States Coast Guard (USCG),and will, to the extent practicable, comply with routine ship movement criteria.1. MARAD will notify NRC in writing in advance of planned movements of the ship. MARAD willpromptly notify NRC in the event of an emergency movement of the ship.2. For any ship movement that involves a change of port, MARAD will review the affected PortOperating Plan(s) in accordance with these criteria, and certify the results to NRC.3. Ship movements will be governed by applicable USCG regulations and notices. Coordination withlocal USCG in departure and arrival ports is required for all NSS movements. Similar coordinationwith and notification to state and local governments and port authorities will be undertaken asrequired.4. In general, NSS movements will conform to USCG dead ship tow criteria and conventional marinetowing practices and standards. Unless otherwise directed by the USCG, the NSS will transit onnormal shipping routes and channels without limitation.5. The NSS is a Public Vessel of the United States, and as such may be exempt from certain USCGregulations and requirements. Where such exemptions exist, they will be evaluated jointly byMARAD and the USCG to determine specific applicability to the NSS.Rev. VI 28
3.2.3 Port Operating CriteriaUpdated Final Safety Analysis Report - (STS-004-002)These port operating criteria, based on the criteria contained in Revision IV and other licensingprecedents, provide basic guidelines for in-port operations and berthing of the NSS in the defueled, nonoperatingcondition. Port Operating Plans, derived from these criteria, shall be prepared and maintainedfor ports in which the NSS is likely to berthed and/or taken for repairs, maintenance and drydocking.1. A detailed Port Operating Plan of the port to be visited must be prepared and must be approved byMARAD prior to the ship’s visit. The content of Port Operating Plans shall include at least thefollowing:A description of the local geography and meteorological / hydrological information;A description of port administrative services and local contact information for applicableservice organizations (e.g., United States Coast Guard, Pilots, Tugs, Police and Fire); and,A description of mooring locations (if known) and transit routes to be used by the ship.2. Port-specific security and emergency (including radiological) plans must be prepared in advance ofthe ship’s movement. Such plans may be incorporated into the Port Operating Plan, and shoulddemonstrate how licensee personnel and local authorities will be organized and employed to conductoperations that would be necessary after the occurrence of an emergency.3. Within 30 days of arrival in the port, briefings and walk-throughs of the emergency plans should beconducted with first-responders. When the port visit involves repairs, maintenance or drydocking ata ship repair facility / shipyard; facility-specific plans shall be prepared and implemented uponarrival.4. Port Operating Plans shall be reviewed at least annually, and updated as required.5. The criteria for adequate tugs and limitation on visitors are deleted.3.3 Control ZonesPopulation control zones were no longer required after the Possession-only License was issued.3.4 Comparison with Central Station Site criteria in the USA[Deleted]Rev.
