On 4/12/2015 at approximately 1230
CDT, an Xcel Energy employee performing activities in the drywell (currently shut down for a planned refueling outage), experienced heat exhaustion. Upon discovery, the plant emergency medical team was dispatched to aid the individual. The individual was immediately transported, via ambulance, to a local hospital for treatment without verification that no contamination existed. Accompanying the individual were two (2) radiation protection individuals. The individual was transported out of the Protected Area at approximately 1250
CDT. Because the potentially contaminated individual could not be surveyed prior to being transported offsite, the individual was considered potentially contaminated. As such, this event is being reported as an 8-hour prompt report pursuant to 10 CFR 50.72(b)(3)(xii).
On 4/12/2015 at approximately 1340 CDT, the radiation protection personnel that accompanied the individual to the medical facility reported that the individual, ambulance, gurney, hospital travel path and exam room were determined not to be contaminated. As a result, no follow-up status report is planned.
The licensee notified the NRC Resident Inspector.
The licensee will be notifying the State Duty Officer.
