The second exercise covered medical support and casualty care portion of the Emergency Plan.
One simulated injured person was transported by a local ambulance service t o the offsite hospital for treatment.

Response

was timely and individuals at the incident scenc, proceded in a orderly fashion.
b.
Accident Assessment During the plant evacuation, the licensee conducted site perimeter radiation surveys to determine of fsite dose consequences.
However, no mathematical dos ( assessment of the offsite areas was conducted. The inspector stated that rapid accident assessment and transmission of these results to State authorities needs improvement.
