1.3 Scope and Applicability The Emergency Plan describes Florida Power & Light Company's plans for responding to emergencies that may develop at the St. Lucie Plant.
The plan has been prepared to meet the requirements of 10 CFR 50.47, 10 CFR 50.72, and 10 CFR 50 Appendix E. The purpose of this plan is to define and assign authority and responsibility in order to protect the health and safety of the public and plant personnel. This plan applies to all plant emergencies which have resulted in, or which increase the risk of the accidental release of radioactive materials to the environment.
Plans have been developed based upon knowledge of the potential consequences, timing, and release characteristics of a spectrum of events. Emergency Planning Zones have been defined. Figure 1-1 illustrates the Plume Exposure Pathway Emergency Planning Zone for the St. Lucie Plant. The map (Figure 1-1) does not specifically include the area of ocean east of the plant. Since there are no islands in that direction, any evacuation of boating traffic would be addressed on a best effort basis. A key component of this plan is coordination with federal, state, and county authorities who contribute to the overall response effort.
This plan outlines company responsibilities within the framework of the overall emergency response organization, and provides a conceptual basis for the development of the detailed procedures necessary to implement the plan.
EP3:4 1-6 St. Lucie, Rev. 65
- 1. GENERAL INFORMATION (continued) 1.4 Concept of Operations The Emergency Plan defines emergency conditions and delineates the responsibilities and duties of the FPL Emergency Response Organization.
The Emergency Plan is concerned with the following basic activities, which are discussed in the Plan in detail:
- 1. Organization and resources adequate to detect the presence of an emergency condition, assess the condition, and respond in an appropriate manner (Chapter 2).
- 2. Assignment of an off-normal event to its proper emergency classification (Chapter 3).
- 3. Notification of off-site authorities, as required, and continuing communications (Chapter 4).
- 4. Gathering and interpreting data to determine appropriate actions (Chapter 5).
- 5. Assisting governmental agencies in the development of information for the public both in terms of preparatory education and emergency response information (Chapter 6).
- 6. Maintaining the FPL Emergency Preparedness Program in a state of readiness (Chapter 7).
Associated with this Emergency Plan are implementing procedures which provide a source of pertinent information and data required by the response organization during an emergency. These procedures are listed in Appendix F.
EP3:4 1-7 St. Lucie, Rev. 65
FIGURE 1-1 PLUME EXPOSURE PATHWAY EMERGENCY PLANNING ZONE N
ST LUCIE BLVD l.tARnN HWY (DIPSI EPLAN-F 1. 1-R3)
EP3:4 1-8 St. Lucie, Rev. 65
- 1. GENERAL INFORMATION (continued) 1.4 Concept of Operations (continued)
Off-normal events have been separated into the following four classifications of emergencies:
A. Notification of Unusual Event B. Alert C. Site Area Emergency D. General Emergency These four classes represent emergency conditions which trigger activation of emergency plans and procedures. When an emergency is declared in connection with one of these four classes, individuals assume new titles with special responsibilities.
Each emergency class is characterized by abnormal plant events detected by Control Room instrumentation and/or routine or directed surveillance activities.
The company's response to an emergency condition consists of an on-shift (immediate) response and an expanded (augmented) response Emergency Response Organization (ERO) which can readily adapt to an emergency condition as it develops. The immediate response phase encompasses the period of time and sequence of actions associated with the initial detection of an off-normal event, classification as an emergency, and activation of the Emergency Response Organization, if required.
During this phase, the Shift Manager assumes responsibility as the Emergency Coordinator and initiates the following general activities:
- 1. Diagnosis of the emergency
- 2. Initiation of corrective actions
- 3. Classification of the emergency
- 4. Notification of appropriate FPL authorities
- 5. Notification of appropriate off-site authorities EP3:4 1-9 St. Lucie, Rev. 65
- 1. GENERAL INFORMATION (continued) 1.4 Concept of Operations (continued)
During the expanded response phase, the Emergency Coordinator will assess the situation and expand, as necessary, the Emergency Response Organization. All available company resources (on-site and off-site) can be mobilized as needed during this period. State, county and federal response organizations can become fully operational, as required.
Continuing corrective, assessment, and protective actions are underway as required.
Table 1-1 summarizes the sequence of actions taken during the phased response. Figure 1-2 delineates the initial notification flow.
As discussed throughout this plan, FPL maintains adequate facilities and equipment for detecting, assessing, and responding to emergencies.
Redundant means of communications among key response participants are maintained. FPL also maintains agreements that will provide emergency medical, rescue, or fire support on-site, if needed. The training program is designed to maintain the proficiency of the Emergency Response Organization.
The FPL individual in charge of on-site emergency response during the immediate and expanded response phases is the Emergency Coordinator.
The senior company official involved in emergencies, with responsibility for policy and authority to expend funds, is the Recovery Manager. The Recovery Manager is also responsible for Emergency Operations Facility operation during the expanded response phase.
In St. Lucie and Martin Counties, the individual responsible during emergencies is the Chairperson, County Board of Commissioners or his/her designate (Director of County Department of Public Safety/Emergency Management). In both counties, the Chairperson, County Board of Commissioners, is responsible for direction and control during emergencies.
As indicated in Chapter 2 of the State Plan, the State Emergency Response Team (SERT) will operate from the State Emergency Operations Center in Tallahassee led by a Governor-appointed State Coordinating Officer (SCO), usually the Director of the Division of Emergency Management.

- 2. ORGANIZATION, FACILITIES, AND SUPPORT SERVICES (continued) 2.4 Emergency Facilities and Equipment This section describes the facilities and equipment that Florida Power &
Light Company maintains in readiness for an emergency situation.
Figure 2-6 shows the locations of the on-site facilities.
- 1. Control Room For any emergency response, the Control Room of the affected unit serves as the initial point of control. The Shift Manager (SM) stations himself in the affected unit's Control Room when he/she assumes the role of Emergency Coordinator (EC). The EC can leave the Control Room if necessary, after a proper turnover to a qualified alternate EC, to make a personal assessment regarding plant safety.
The Control Rooms are designed to remain tenable under accident conditions described in the Updated Final Safety Analysis Report (UFSAR). All plant related operations are directed from the Control Room. Nuclear plant instrumentation, including area and process radiation monitoring system instrumentation, is provided in the Control Room to give early warning of a potential emergency and to provide for continuing indication of an emergency situation. The Control Rooms contain the controls and instrumentation necessary for operation of the reactor under normal and emergency conditions.
A supply of radiological emergency equipment is maintained in each of the Control Rooms. Table 2-3 provides an example list of emergency equipment maintained for the two Control Rooms and the Technical Support Center (TSC) use.
Each Control Room contains the necessary communications equipment for notifying on-site personnel and off-site authorities in the event of an accident. This includes the Hot Ring Down (HRD) telephone to the State Watch Office (SWO), EMnet (Satellite Communications System), Emergency Notification System (ENS) to the NRC Operations Center (in Maryland), commercial telephones, Florida Power & Light Company radio system, public address system, portable radio sets (walkie-talkies), and a radio paging system. These systems are used as defined by procedure to accomplish the necessary notifications and communications.
EP3:4 2-31 St. Lucie, Rev. 65
- 2. ORGANIZATION, FACILITIES, AND SUPPORT SERVICES (continued) 2.4 2. Technical Support Center (TSC)
The company maintains an on-site Technical Support Center to provide the Control Room with in-depth diagnostic and engineering assistance without adding to congestion within the Control Room.
The TSC interfaces with the EOF regarding those diagnostic and engineering decisions. This assistance can help determine the operational decisions that would be appropriate to best control and mitigate the consequences of the emergency. The TSC is located adjacent to the Unit 1 Control Room.
Activation of the Technical Support Center will be initiated by the Emergency Coordinator in the event of an Alert, Site Area Emergency or General Emergency. Arrangements have been made to staff the TSC in a timely manner.
The Technical Support Center contains pertinent records and drawings.
The Technical Support Center has an emergency communications network similar to the Control Rooms. The TSC also has the NRC Emergency Telecommunications System (ETS).
- 3. Operational Support Center (OSC)
The company maintains an on-site Operational Support Center (OSC) to serve as an assembly point for auxiliary operators, radiation protection technicians, maintenance personnel, and other plant personnel available to support the emergency response. Required staff will be assigned to appropriate activities by the Emergency Coordinator or his/her designee.
Equipment that can be used by personnel dispatched from the OSC is stored in the South Service Building. Table 2-4 indicates the types of material and equipment stored there.
Activation of the OSC will be initiated by the Emergency Coordinator.
The OSC will be activated and in operation for an Alert, Site Area Emergency or General Emergency. Arrangements have been made to staff the OSC in a timely manner.
The OSC is maintained in the large conference room on the second floor of the South Service Building. Telephone communications are maintained between the OSC and the Technical Support Center.
EP3:4 2-32 St. Lucie, Rev. 65
- 2. ORGANIZATION, FACILITIES, AND SUPPORT SERVICES (continued) 2.4 4. Alternate Operational Support Center In the event that the OSC becomes uninhabitable, the Emergency Coordinator will designate an alternate location in accordance with procedures.
- 5. Emergency Operations Facility (EOF)
The company maintains an Emergency Operations Facility from which evaluation and coordination of FPL activities related to an emergency can be carried out and from which FPL can provide information to federal, state, and local authorities.
The Emergency Operations Facility is located at the intersection of State Route 712 (Midway Road) and I-95 approximately 10 1/2 miles west of the St. Lucie Plant. The EOF has sufficient space to accommodate the Florida Power & Light Company response organization and designated representatives of the federal, state, and local authorities. Alternate temporary locations for the Emergency Operations Facility may be designated by the Recovery Manager if a natural disaster or other (non-radiological) external event significantly affects the operational capability of the facility.
The Emergency Operations Facility has an emergency communications network including but not limited to, commercial (Bell) telephone lines, Hot Ring Down (HRD) phone, NRC ENS, NRC HPN, NRC counterpart links, EMnet (Satellite Communications System),
and various Florida Power & Light Co. maintained radio systems.
Essential, precalculated emergency data and pertinent reports and drawings are readily available.
The RM is responsible for declaring the EOF operational. The EOF is required to be in operation for a Site Area Emergency or General Emergency, but may go operational for an Alert. Arrangements have been made to activate the EOF in a timely manner.
The EOF serves as an alternate facility for the Technical Support Center and the Operations Support Center in a hostile action event at the station.
These facilities collectively have the following characteristics: the capability for communication with the emergency operations facility, control room and plant security; the capability to perform offsite notifications; and the capability for engineering assessment activities, including dmage control team planning and prepration, for use when onsite emergency facilities cannot be safely accessed during hostile action.
EP3:4 2-33 St. Lucie, Rev. 65
- 2. ORGANIZATION, FACILITIES, AND SUPPORT SERVICES (continued) 2.4 6. Joint Information Center (JIC)
An Joint Information Center (JIC) is provided to allow the news media access to information from the Emergency Operations Facility.
The Emergency Information Manager will designate an individual to supervise the JIC. The JIC is co-located with the EOF (Midway Road/I-95 intersection).

EP3:4 3-3 St. Lucie, Rev. 65
- 3. EMERGENCY CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM (continued) 3.5 Emergency Action Levels The Shift Manager (SM) uses the Emergency Action Levels (EALs) to evaluate plant conditions requiring declaration of an Emergency Class and initiation of the Emergency Plan. The EALs, listed in Appendices A, B and C, are grouped into Recognition Categories depending on the nature of the initiating condition and the impact on plant operation and safety.
As the condition(s) of the plant degrade(s), increasing Emergency Action Levels are reached resulting in a higher (greater severity) class of emergency being declared. Fifteen (15) minutes should not be exceeded for assessing and classifying an emergency once indications (Emergency Action Levels (EALs) / thresholds) are available to Plant Operators that an Initiating Condition (IC) has been met and/or exceeded.
For EALs that are time-based, a prescribed assessment period is provided. It is to be acknowledged that the condition described in the EAL has been met if the stated time period elapsed. There is not an additional 15 minute assessment period.
Tables 3-2 and 3-3 contain listings of Process and Effluent Monitors and Area Radiation Monitors that may be used to initiate emergency actions.
These tables contain information regarding the type of monitor, range of the instruments, and typical setpoints (actual setpoints are defined by procedure).
Table 3-4 contains a listing of non-radiological monitors, meters, or gauges that may be used to initiate emergency actions. This table contains information regarding the parameter measured and the range of the monitor, meter, or gauge.
3.6 Hostile Action An act toward a Nuclear Power Plant (NPP) or its personnel that includes the use of violent force to destroy equipment, takes hostages, and/or intimidates the licensee to achieve an end. This includes attack by air, land, or water using guns, explosives, projectiles, vehicles, or other devices used to deliver destructive force. Other acts that satisfy the overall intent may be included. HOSTILE ACTION should not be construed to include acts of civil disobedience or felonious acts that are not part of a concerted attack on the NPP. Non-terrorism-based EALs should be used to address such activities, (e.g., violent acts between individuals in the owner controlled area).
3.7 Hostile Force One or more individuals who are engaged in a determined assault, overtly or by stealth and deception, equipped with suitable weapons capable of killing, maiming, or causing destruction.

- 4. NOTIFICATION AND COMMUNICATION This section describes the procedures and methods established for initial notification and follow-up communications with Florida Power & Light Company, and from Florida Power & Light Company to the appropriate state, county, and federal response organizations. Section 4.6, Communications Equipment, describes the referenced systems in more detail. Figure 1-2 shows the initial notification flow.
Table 4-1 presents the organizational positions and alternates for the primary response organizations responsible for ensuring the manning of communications links.
4.1 FPL Emergency Response Organization The FPL Emergency Coordinator, acting in accordance with plant procedures, has the responsibility to make the necessary notifications and communications, and for determining the content of the notification.
However, actual contacts may be made by designated communications assistants. The use of the phrase "Emergency Coordinator" below is also defined as "Emergency Coordinator or designated communicator," except for those items described in Section 2.2.2.2 which cannot be delegated.
- 1. Initial Notification Florida Power & Light Company emergency procedures call for the following actions for initial notification within the FPL organization.
- 1. Personnel detecting a potential significant off-normal event or condition should report it to the Shift Manager by the fastest means available. This may mean face-to-face communication, the plant public address system, or the commercial telephone system.
These systems provide adequate means of redundancy for this initial notification.
The following information should be related to the extent possible:
Type of emergency (fire, pipe rupture, etc.).
Location of emergency.
Presence of injured personnel.
Extent of damage to plant components.
The Shift Manager directs the investigative actions to address the off-normal event. The Shift Manager classifies the event and if it is determined to be an Unusual Event, Alert, Site Area Emergency, or General Emergency, implements this Emergency Plan and becomes the Emergency Coordinator.
EP3:4 4-1 St. Lucie, Rev. 65
- 4. NOTIFICATION AND COMMUNICATION (continued) 4.1 1. 1. (continued)
As necessary, the Emergency Coordinator notifies plant personnel of the emergency situation and any required protective actions by the Plant Public Address system. Activation of FPL personnel proceeds to the degree necessary, as determined by the EC, in response to the severity of the emergency.
If necessary, the Emergency Coordinator directs the evacuation of all visitors and non-essential Florida Power & Light Company employees.
- 2. The Emergency Coordinator notifies the Shift Communicator (SC) by the most readily available communications system and provides basic information as described below and the status of his/her notification of off-site authorities. The SC notifies the Recovery Manager (RM) and appropriate response personnel by telephone, cellular phone, or beeper.
The Emergency Coordinator provides the following information to the SC to the extent possible:
Type of accident or incident Affected Unit Assessment of the emergency condition (including the class of emergency).
Information on personnel injuries, and an estimate of personnel radiation exposures.
Off-site support already called in and/or required.
An estimate of the magnitude of a radioactive material release and the area possibly affected, if applicable.
Actions already taken or recommended with respect to the evacuation of various on-site areas, if applicable.
Meteorological information.
Assessment of potential radiation exposure to persons off-site and any protective actions for off-site areas recommended, if applicable.
- 3. Once the Emergency Operations Facility (EOF) is declared operational the Recovery Manager (RM) assumes responsibility for notification of off-site governmental agencies.
EP3:4 4-2 St. Lucie, Rev. 65
- 4. NOTIFICATION AND COMMUNICATION (continued) 4.1 2. Communications Initially, communications between the Emergency Coordinator (in the Control Room) and FPL's Expanded Emergency Organization are by redundant telephone systems, with radio as the backup. When the Emergency Operations Facility is mobilized, communications within the FPL Emergency Response Organization are accomplished primarily using commercial phones.
Follow-up messages regarding the prognosis for worsening or terminating of the event as well as requests for on-site support by off-site organizations will be made periodically or as needed by the EC to the RM. Recommendations for off-site protective measures to Division of Emergency Management (DEM) may be included as part of follow-up messages. These measures are indicated on Figure 5-1.
4.2 State and County Agencies The State and County agencies are notified of an emergency situation (within 15 minutes) via redundant communication lines. State of Florida notification and communications procedures are presented in Chapter 6 of the State Plan.
- 1. Division of Emergency Management Initial Notification FPL's Shift Communicator will make initial notification within 15 minutes of declaring an emergency to the Duty Officer at the State Watch Office (SWO) in Tallahassee. The State's Hot Ring Down (commercial telephone and EMnet (Satellite Communications System) serve as backups) will be used for notification of any emergency: Unusual Event, Alert, Site Area Emergency or General Emergency. Backup telephone numbers for 24-hour per day notification are provided by procedure.
Figure 4-1 shows the information to be communicated to SWO during initial and follow-up notifications. The listed information is provided to the extent possible at the time of initial notification. Periodically, additional update information is included in follow-up messages.
Follow-up messages may come from the Technical Support Center (TSC), if operational, or the Emergency Operations Facility (EOF), if operational.
EP3:4 4-3 St. Lucie, Rev. 65
- 4. NOTIFICATION AND COMMUNICATION (continued) 4.2 1. Division of Emergency Management (continued)
The initial notification may be brief with certain information not available.
Follow-up messages from the Emergency Coordinator or Recovery Manager to the Division of Emergency Management (DEM) will include the required information as it becomes available.
The Division of Emergency Management has established a procedure to authenticate emergency notification from the St. Lucie Plant. The Hot Ring Down and EMnet systems are restricted circuits under control of the DEM and local government.
Communications The Emergency Coordinator will maintain periodic contact with the State Watch Office, located at the State Emergency Operations Center (EOC) in Tallahassee, via the Hot Ring Down network.
FPL responsibility for communication with off-site agencies is transferred from the Emergency Coordinator to the Recovery Manager when the Recovery Manager declares the EOF operational.

EP3:4 4-7 St. Lucie, Rev. 65
- 4. NOTIFICATION AND COMMUNICATION (continued) 4.5 Notification of the Public by the State/County The State Plan (See Appendix D for Distribution of State Plan) defines the state and county procedures for notifying the public in the event of an emergency. Appendix III,Section VI of the State Plan describes further provisions.
4.6 Communications Equipment The various communications systems previously discussed are described in more detail below and shown in Figure 4-2.
This communications network incorporates all telephones, the plant public address system, fixed and mobile radio systems, and radio "beepers" employed for routine plant operation and other normal company business.
Key personnel on-site are readily accessible, since at any time most or all of these systems are available to contact them. In addition, the communication systems of State and County agencies and other organizations with which the company has emergency assistance agreements will be used to implement emergency activities.
Public Address System (PA)
The PA system, with speakers strategically located throughout the Protected Area, provides for the transmission of warning and instructions in the event of an emergency. The system is in frequent use during normal plant operations, and consists of numerous separate amplifiers which operate from the plant 120 volt AC vital instrument power system. Handsets are provided in the Plant Control Rooms, the North and South Services Buildings, and numerous other locations within the Protected Area. The system includes one paging channel and five party line channels.
Commercial Telephones There are numerous Telephone System lines connected to the plant for normal dial telephone service. This system represents the primary system for routine communication with areas outside the plant.
Portable Radio Transceivers Various portable radio transceivers (walkie-talkies) are available to supplement the fixed communications equipment in the plant. These radios are lightweight battery operated units which may be easily carried by personnel to any location on the plant site. Some of these portable radios are capable of communicating with an FM radio transceiver over a range of several miles.
EP3:4 4-8 St. Lucie, Rev. 65

Hot Ring Down Telephone System (HRD)
The Hot Ring Down Telephone System is installed in the Control Rooms, TSC, EOF, State EOC, and risk county EOCs. This system uses dedicated commercial telephone lines and is activated through pre-designated three digit access "telephone numbers."
The initial notification of an emergency and other required notifications are made via this system to the State Division of Emergency Management (State Watch Office - Tallahassee) and the County Departments of Public Safety. The Hot Ring Down System is the primary system for communication among these facilities. Commercial telephone and EMnet (Emergency Satellite Communications System) serve as backups.
EMnet EMnet is an Emergency Satellite Communications System which is available in the Control Rooms, the Technical Support Center, and the Emergency Operations Facility. The EMnet is an alternate communications pathway for the Hot Ring Down telephone.
NRC Emergency Telecommunications System (ETS)
Portions of this system are used to contact the NRC, such as the ENS and HPN. These phone links are described below:
Emergency Notification System (ENS) - The ENS is used for initial notification by the licensee, as well as ongoing information on plant systems, status, and parameters. The ENS is installed in each Control Room, TSC and EOF.
Health Physics Network (HPN) - The HPN is used for communication with the licensee on radiological conditions (in-plant and off-site) and meteorological conditions, as well as their assessment of trends and needs for protective measures on-site and off-site. The HPN is located in the TSC and EOF.
Additionally, this system contains conferencing bridges and access to a Local Area Network (LAN) for use by the NRC Site Team.

- 5. RESPONSE TO ACCIDENT CONDITIONS Table 3-1 identifies a spectrum of off-normal events and classifies those events into four categories. The classification is based on Emergency Action Levels which are related to instrument readings, or observations, or a combination of these identified in the table. This section discusses the assessment of and response to these events.
5.1 Accident Assessment Once an off-normal event has been detected and classified in accordance with the Emergency Action Levels, a process of continuing assessment will be initiated. System instrumentation and procedures which would be used as appropriate in the assessment process are described below.
Specifications of instrumentation utilized for accident assessment are contained in procedures. Post accident sampling capabilities are also described in procedures.
- 1. Plant Release Pathways Units 1 and 2 at the St. Lucie Plant are equipped with independent systems for measuring radioactivity at potential release points and within the containment buildings (See Table 3-2 and 3-3).
The plant vent monitoring system samples the exhaust stream which is the pathway for releases from the containment purge, reactor auxiliary building, condenser air ejector exhaust and the waste gas decay tanks.
The waste gas system has a separate monitor which controls releases to the plant vent.
Additional release pathways are also monitored. These include the fuel building vent (exhaust for fuel pool, new fuel room and fuel pool pump room). During accident conditions, the Unit 2 fuel building exhaust is diverted and monitored through the Unit 2 plant vent. The two Emergency Core Cooling System (ECCS) pump bays at each of the units have monitored exhaust systems. The two main steam lines at each of the units are monitored for possible releases via the safety relief valves and/or atmospheric steam dump.
All monitored pathways, excluding the main steam lines, are equipped with high efficiency particulate filters or charcoal/iodine filters or both.
The monitoring point is after the filters and before the release opening to the atmosphere.
For particulates and iodine, release points other than the main steam lines will be monitored using grab sampling and analysis in accordance with plant procedures.
EP3:4 5-1 St. Lucie, Rev. 65
- 5. RESPONSE TO ACCIDENT CONDITIONS (continued) 5.1 1. Plant Release Pathways (continued)
In addition to these monitors, each unit is provided with an area radiation monitoring system (see Table 3-3). This monitoring system employs detectors distributed throughout the unit and detector indicators are provided locally and in the respective Control Rooms.
The area monitoring system provides early indication of a release of radioactivity within the unit.
Under accident conditions, the containment atmosphere is monitored for radioisotopic content by grab sampling. In addition, the containment is provided with radiation monitors. These monitors would provide an early indication of radioactivity in the containment, particularly as a result of a loss of reactor coolant to the containment building.
Chemical and radioisotopic analyses of the reactor coolant are provided by grab sampling.
Also, each plant has a system of fire detectors with appropriate alarms in the Control Room to provide warning of a fire emergency.
- 2. On-site Sampling Resources The capability is available at the St. Lucie Plant to obtain grab samples of the reactor containment atmosphere and the reactor coolant.
To obtain grab samples of the containment atmosphere following an accident, a special removable gas sampling vessel is provided in the Containment Hydrogen Analyzer System on both units. The removable vessel would be transported to the plant laboratory. At the laboratory, a portion of the gas would be drawn from the vessel, and the radioisotopic content determined by a multichannel analyzer. Plant procedures provide detailed instructions for sample acquisition, transportation, and analysis.
Reactor coolant grab samples can also be taken following an accident.
Details on sample acquisition, transportation, and analysis are described in plant procedures.
EP3:4 5-2 St. Lucie, Rev. 65
- 5. RESPONSE TO ACCIDENT CONDITIONS (continued) 5.1 2. On-site Sampling Resources (continued)
Air samples will be collected using portable air samplers in accordance with a plant procedure. Portable air samplers are located such that time required to obtain results is minimized for critically manned areas (e.g., Control Room, Technical Support Center). Silver zeolite sample cartridges are stored on-site. To preclude interferences by noble gas adsorption, only silver zeolite cartridges will initially be used to sample critically manned areas (e.g., Control Room, Technical Support Center, other areas which require personnel to be present). Collected samples will be transported promptly to the lab. If necessary, an alternate Counting Room will be established using portable equipment in a low background area. Analysis by gamma spectroscopy, in accordance with approved procedures, is preferred, but portable instrumentation yielding usable results is available.
- 3. Meteorological Systems Meteorological data are required to make estimates of off-site radiation exposure in the event of a release of gaseous radioactivity.
Measurement of three meteorological parameters, wind speed, wind direction, and a measure of atmospheric stability, are required to make estimates of atmospheric dispersion, an essential part of an off-site radiation exposure calculation.
Meteorological data are collected at the St. Lucie Plant site. The readouts from the site meteorological tower are digital with strip chart recorders to provide 15 minute averages and the data are directly available at the Unit 1 Control Room. The National Weather Service Station serves as the backup. Table 5-1 summarizes the available data.
As indicated in Table 5-1, values of the key meteorological parameters are provided for by the St. Lucie Plant meteorological tower. These readouts are provided continuously and the data are directly available at the Control Room, Technical Support Center (TSC), and the Emergency Operations Facility (EOF) via the Emergency Response Data Acquisition and Display System (ERDADS).
Meteorological data are provided to the State via initial and follow-up communications. Data is also provided in response to direct inquiries from DEM and the Bureau of Radiation Control. The EOF and NRC can receive timely meteorological information through the TSC, upon request, or through ERDADS.
EP3:4 5-3 St. Lucie, Rev. 65
- 5. RESPONSE TO ACCIDENT CONDITIONS (continued) 5.1 4. Source Term and Release Determination As discussed in Section 5.1.3 certain meteorological parameters are required for the calculation of off-site radiation exposure from airborne releases. Additional essential pieces of information are the rate of release and isotopic composition of the released radioactivity.
If radioactivity was released from a monitored vent, then a direct measure of the release rate would be available. Monitored release points are discussed in Section 5.1.1.
Based upon certain assumptions, a specific source term can be determined using EPIP-14, Dose Assessment Using the Unified RASCAL Interface for all monitored release points and grab samples.
In the event of a loss of coolant accident, the containment radiation monitors would provide the first indication of the magnitude or existence of radioactivity in the containment atmosphere. Additional information about the isotopic composition of the airborne radioactivity would be derived from isotopic analysis of a containment atmosphere sample.
Containment High Range Radiation Monitors (CHRRM) provide an indication of levels of radioactive material in the containment atmosphere. These monitors can be used to determine a certain concentration of radionuclides based upon the isotopic mixes assumed for the accidents described in the Updated Final Safety Analysis Report (UFSAR). Procedures addressing these parameters and calculations are provided in EPIP-14, Dose Assessment Using the Unified RASCAL Interface.
Procedures have been developed to assist the plant staff in estimating release rates and isotopic content for releases from the various plant vents.
A containment release rate for use in the off-site dose estimation procedure mentioned above is conservatively estimated as the design basis leak rate at the design pressure.

- 5. RESPONSE TO ACCIDENT CONDITIONS (continued) 5.1 5. Exposure and Dose Rate Determination One of the uses of radiation monitors and meteorological instrumentation is the calculation of off-site radiation exposures.
An estimate of doses is needed in the event of a radiological emergency so that responsible agencies can use this information to plan protective action.
EPIP-14, Dose Assessment Using the Unified RASCAL Interface, provides the details of how initial dose estimates are determined. In particular, current meteorological data, grab sample results, Field Monitoring Team data, process monitor data, and Containment High Range Radiation Monitors (CHRRM) readings are used in conjunction with tables to estimate doses under actual meteorological conditions.
Dose calculations will be updated periodically during the course of the accident and the results will be provided to State and County authorities for their use in evaluating the need for protective action. Figure 5-1 compares off-site dose estimates with the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Protective Action Guides (PAGs). Initial dose estimates would be prepared by the Chemistry Department representative who reports to the Technical Support Center. Refined dose estimates would be performed by dose assessment personnel in the Emergency Operations Facility, when operational. Dose estimates are performed using EPIP-14. Default values, estimating a worst case situation can be utilized if assessment instrumentation is not available (off-scale or inoperable) and field sample analysis has not yet been completed. FPL off-site dose calculations and field monitoring analysis will be compared with Florida Department of Health and other off-site agencies (NRC, DOE) calculations and analysis when those agencies co-locate in the EOF.
EP3:4 5-6 St. Lucie, Rev. 65
- 5. RESPONSE TO ACCIDENT CONDITIONS (continued) 5.1 6. Off-site Monitoring Dosimetry The Florida Department of Health maintains a system of about 35 TLD stations in the vicinity of St. Lucie Plant. Stations are provided in each land based 22.5 sector, at approximately 1-mile, 5-mile and 10-mile radii.
Laboratories and Sampling Laboratory facilities are provided as discussed in Section 2.3.2.
The plant's on-site radiological laboratories serve as primary facilities with backup provided by portable equipment. Analysis of off-site environmental samples collected by the State will be performed at the State's Mobile Emergency Radiological Laboratory. This mobile lab can be in position near the site within three hours of notification. Bureau of Radiation Control representatives dispatched to the EOF will serve as a central point for the receipt of all State off-site field monitoring data.
Field Monitoring - State Chapter 9 of the State Plan discusses the State role in accident assessment. It describes agencies and their missions, specialized personnel, special equipment, and other matters related to field monitoring within the Plume Exposure Pathway Emergency Planning Zone (EPZ). Chapter 8,Section V and Figures 8-2 to 8-4 discuss in further detail the capability and resources for field monitoring.
Transportation of field teams is discussed in Chapter 8,Section III of the State Plan. Field team communications are described in Chapter 6 of the State Plan. Monitoring equipment is described in Chapter 8,Section V and Figures 8-2 to 8-4. Composition of field teams is discussed in Chapter 9 of the State Plan.
Although county plans discuss accident assessment,Section X of Appendix III, of the State Plan, indicates that the off-site accident assessment responsibility rests with the Bureau of Radiation Control.
DOH Bureau of Radiation Control provides for the measurement of iodine in air and the use of such measurements in assessment activities.
EP3:4 5-7 St. Lucie, Rev. 65
- 5. RESPONSE TO ACCIDENT CONDITIONS (continued) 5.1 6. Off-site Monitoring (continued)
Field Monitoring - Plant Plant procedure RP-SL-100-1005, Radiation Protection Emergency Organization, provides methods for activation of emergency field monitoring teams and dispatching these teams throughout the plume EPZ.
Procedure RP-SL-102-2005, Environmental Monitoring During Emergencies, includes techniques for measurements of airborne concentrations of radioiodine and direct radiation dose rates, transportation of teams, expected deployment times, and communications. Instrumentation, at the plant, is available with the capability to detect radioiodine in concentrations of at least 10-7 microcuries/cc, in the field. Assessment of data is discussed in EPIP-10, "Off-site Radiological Monitoring."
Coordination of Sampling Data To assure that information concerning FPL off-site radiological assessment is exchanged, arrangements have been made for representatives from the Bureau of Radiation Control to be stationed at the EOF. Direction and control of field operations for the Department of Health will be provided by the Bureau of Radiation Control Health Physics Supervisor. He/she will conduct/supervise accident assessment and/or response of the field teams from a post at the EOF, where office space and communications equipment are available. Prior to the arrival of Bureau of Radiation Control personnel, coordination of this information will be through follow-up communications with DEM and the Plume Exposure Pathway EPZ counties.
Department of Energy (DOE) off-site monitoring assistance, if required, will be requested by the DEM in consultation with the Bureau of Radiation Control. Lead responsibility for coordination with the DOE is assigned to the Bureau of Radiation Control.
EP3:4 5-8 St. Lucie, Rev. 65
- 5. RESPONSE TO ACCIDENT CONDITIONS (continued) 5.2 Protective Response This section describes the protective actions on-site and data provided to assist the State and County in determining appropriate off-site protective actions.
- 1. Protective Actions On-site On-site protective actions for a radiological emergency consist of evacuation of the affected area (localized evacuation or site evacuation), monitoring of all personnel who were in the affected area, decontamination as required, and re-entry to determine the magnitude and extent of the problem when it is determined to be safe to do so.
During a Hostile Action event, protective actions can range from taking cover to evacuation, depending on the event and timing of the event.
Individuals remaining or arriving on-site during an emergency will be provided protective equipment as prescribed by the TSC RP Supervisor and plant procedures. Florida Power & Light Company will make Potassium Iodide (KI) available for use as a thyroid blocking agent.
Use of KI will be in accordance with plant procedures.
Control Room personnel are in an isolated environment and need protective equipment if they leave the Control Room. An emergency kit with necessary equipment is present inside both Control Rooms and is to be used for this purpose (Table 2.3). In addition, if there is fire or smoke in the Control Room or if the Control Room air becomes contaminated, Control Room personnel might have to don respiratory protective equipment in order to remain in the Control Room to handle the emergency.
Decontamination Personnel decontamination facilities are available in four locations.
Their use will be governed by the nature of the incident.
- 1. Hot Locker Rooms - Showers and sinks available for the decontamination of personnel with no (or minor) injuries. One is located in the Auxiliary Building for each unit.
EP3:4 5-9 St. Lucie, Rev. 65
- 5. RESPONSE TO ACCIDENT CONDITIONS (continued) 5.2 1. Protective Actions (continued)
Decontamination (continued)
- 2. Lawnwood Regional Medical Center in Ft. Pierce, FL and Martin Memorial Medical Center in Stuart, FL are available for medical treatment and decontamination of contaminated injured individuals. Lawnwood Regional Medical Center is located approximately 8 miles Northwest of St. Lucie Plant. Martin Memorial Medical Center is located approximately 10 1/4 miles South of St. Lucie Plant.
- 3. Decontamination Facility - The Site Assembly Station personnel decontamination capabilities consist of utilizing various types of decontamination agents, such as waterless cleaners and decontamination foams. A quantity of cloth material is available for use with these decontamination agents. Contamination monitoring is performed through the use of count rate instruments with beta sensitive probes. Extra clothing for personnel whose personal clothing has been contaminated is available in the form of disposable garments. Decontamination of vehicles will be handled following the accident. Methods for decontamination and monitoring are described in plant procedures.
Off-site Off-site areas are the responsibility of the respective County Public Safety Departments, the Department of Health, and the Division of Emergency Management of the State of Florida. Control of radioactive contamination and public safety in off-site areas are responsibilities of these governmental agencies, and their criteria for implementing protective actions may be found in the State Plan Chapter 10.
Decontamination of off-site areas will be performed under the direction of the Bureau of Radiation Control.
Section XII.E. of Appendix III of the State Plan discusses evacuation routes, times, and facilities in relation to St. Lucie and Martin Counties.
Recommendations for protective actions will be made by the Emergency Coordinator (Recovery Manager after EOF is operational) based upon consideration of severity of an accident (emergency class) and estimated off-site doses (if available). A range of protective actions has been developed in accordance with NUREG-0654, FEMA REP 1, NUREG-0654, FEMA-REP-1, Rev. 1, Supplement 3 and EPA 400-R-92-001. Figure 5-1 shows the decision-making criteria for determination of Protective Action Recommendations (PARs).
EP3:4 5-10 St. Lucie, Rev. 65
- 5. RESPONSE TO ACCIDENT CONDITIONS (continued) 5.2 2. On-site Warning and Response During an emergency, the relocation of plant personnel in the Protected Area may be required in order to prevent or minimize exposure to radioactive materials. Evacuation is the primary protective action anticipated for on-site personnel. An emergency evacuation is the orderly, rapid, and safe withdrawal of all personnel from an area affected by an emergency condition. The plant public address system will be used to announce evacuation orders. Announcement of an emergency situation to all plant personnel within the Protected Area can be accomplished in less than 15 minutes. Depending on the nature of the emergency and the extent of the area affected, evacuations have been classified as either a Local Evacuation or an Owner Controlled Area Evacuation.
- 1. Local Evacuation Definition A local evacuation is the evacuation of personnel from a room, area, or building located within the Protected Area.
Criteria The evacuation of an affected local area will be initiated per routine RP procedures when any of the following conditions occur:
- 1. Area Radiation Monitor Alarm
- 2. Containment Evacuation Alarm
- 3. Unevaluated direct radiation dose rate increase in excess of 100 mrem/hour above normal levels.
- 4. Unexpected airborne radioactivity concentration in excess of 1 x 10-9 micro Ci/cc.
- 5. Removable radioactive surface contamination in an unposted area in excess of 1000 dpm/100 cm2 beta-gamma over an area 100 ft2.
- 6. Removable radioactive surface contamination in an unposted area in excess of 50 dpm/100 cm2 alpha over an area 100 ft2.

FIGURE 5-1 PROTECTIVE ACTION RECOMMENDATIONS1 (Page 2 of 3)
PARs Based on Plant Conditions NOTE:
(1) A Rapidly Progressing Severe Accident involves a containment failure with >20% clad damage or PAG's exceeded at site boundary within 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br />.
Loss of containment integrity::: EALs indicate containment barrier loss. This path is used for scenarios in which containment integrity can be determined as bypassed or immediately lost during aGE with core damage .
20% Clad Damage is identified by ANY the following :
- Pressure:::; 100 psia and 1250 CET Temp (F)
- Pressure between 100 and 1200 psia and 1550 CET Temp (F)
- Pressure between 1200 and 1650 psia and 1925 CET Tempt (F)
If this scenario cannot be immediately confirmed, assume it is not taking place and answer "no" to this decision block.
(2) Hostile Action : An act toward a Nuclear Power Plant (NPP) or its personnel that includes the use of violent force to destroy equipment, take hostages, and/or intimidate the licensee to achieve an end. This includes attack by air, land, or water using guns, explosives, projectiles, vehicles, or other devices used to deliver destructive force. Other acts that satisfy the overall intent may be included. Hostile Action should not be construed to include acts of civil disobedience or felonious acts that are not part of a concerted attack on the NPP.
(3) Shelter in Place (SIP) means that instructions are given to members of the public to remain indoors, turn off heating or air conditioning (as appropriate for the region and season) , close windows, monitor communications channels, and prepare to evacuate.
(4) Monitor and Prepare: The instruction to monitor and prepare is intended to engage the population within the plume exposure pathway emergency planning zone , inform them of the emergency, and advise them that they should monitor the situation and prepare for the possibility of evacuation , SIP, or other protective actions. If an evacuation is underway, officials should ask members of the public who are not directed to evacuate to remain off the roadways to allow the evacuation to proceed .
(5) Continue Assessments : Radiological and meteorological assessments should be continued and evacuation considered for any areas where dose projections or field measurements indicate that PAGs may be exceeded. Communications with the public should be maintained while protective actions are in effect. Additionally, changes in wind direction may indicate that if a release begins, it would affect different downwind sectors. If a licensee believes that containment may fail, it should pursue the expansion of PARs.
(6) GE Conditions Remain: If the plant has mitigated the conditions that caused the GE declaration (i.e. , core cooling is restored), expanding the PAR to evacuate downwind sectors upon completion of the initial staged evacuation may not be necessary. However, if GE emergency action levels are still met, expansion of the PAR to the downwind sectors may be appropriate. If the plant restores core cooling , it must still perform a radiological assessment to identify the extent of contamination, if any. If surveys or dose projections reveal areas under no protective action direction where protective action guidelines (PAGs) could be exceeded, the members of the public in those areas should be evacuated or sheltered, as appropriate.

EPIP-08-F02 Form Revision : 6 EP3:4 5-14 St. Lucie, Rev. 65
- 5. RESPONSE TO ACCIDENT CONDITIONS (continued) 5.2 2. 1. Local Evacuation (continued)
Personnel Actions When the containment evacuation alarm is activated or when the Emergency Coordinator makes notification over the public address system that a local evacuation has been declared, non-essential FPL and contract personnel, and visitors in the area will go to the designated assembly area and remain there for personnel accountability and monitoring. Plant visitors are escorted at all times by a trained person who is accountable for them. They will also be informed by their escort during any emergency of what they are expected to do during the emergency.
When a local evacuation is declared, the Security Force will assist in personnel accounting and be prepared to brief the SM/Emergency Coordinator.
Precautions Every effort will be made to minimize personnel exposure to radiation.
Personnel who have been in the area of an evacuation should remain in a group and should not mix with other personnel in the assembly area until they have been monitored for possible contamination, unless they are injured. Injured personnel will be treated by the First Aid Team. Provisions exist for off-site treatment of personnel, if required (see Section 2.5).
Evacuation Implementation The SM/Emergency Coordinator will announce the local evacuation over the public address system, identifying the area affected, the assembly point and other instructions as required. All personnel in the evacuated area will stop work, turn off potentially hazardous equipment and leave the area. All personnel in the evacuated area should report to the designated assembly area for monitoring and accountability. The SM/Emergency Coordinator will activate the Emergency Response Organization as required. The SM/Emergency Coordinator, and department supervisors and foremen having personnel working in the evacuated area, will assist in verifying that all personnel are accounted for. The SM/Emergency Coordinator will initiate a search for personnel who have not been accounted for.
EP3:4 5-15 St. Lucie, Rev. 65
- 5. RESPONSE TO ACCIDENT CONDITIONS (continued) 5.2 2. 2. Owner Controlled Area Evacuation Definition An Owner Controlled Area Evacuation is the orderly withdrawal of all non-essential personnel from the Owner Controlled Area (OCA), including the Protected Area (PA).
Criteria An Owner Controlled Area Evacuation can be initiated at the discretion of the EC and is signaled by the sounding of the evacuation alarm followed by instructions given over the public address system. Evacuation of the OCA will normally occur at a Site Area Emergency or General Emergency unless such action is deemed unwarranted by the EC (i.e., personnel would be placed at greater risk).
Responsibilities The EC advises the TSC Security Supervisor of evacuation of the OCA either directly or via the evacuation alarm and/or the public address system.
Information needed by the Security Force to properly fulfill their responsibilities during the evacuation is provided to the TSC Security Supervisor by the EC. Significant responsibilities during the evacuation include directing the evacuation movements and personnel accountability.
The EC will direct that a search be initiated for any personnel not accounted for.
Evacuation Preparedness The population within the OCA is approximately 1300, including workers who may be present on-site at shift change.
All visitors will have adequate transportation available to evacuate all members of their respective groups. The Security Force will assist in arranging for required transportation.
EP3:4 5-16 St. Lucie, Rev. 65
- 5. RESPONSE TO ACCIDENT CONDITIONS (continued) 5.2 2. 2. Owner Controlled Area Evacuation (continued)
Evacuation Preparedness (continued)
Escorts accompanying visitors will assure that transportation is available at all times while the visitors are on-site. Escorts will maintain controls of groups of individuals to which they are assigned to enable all members of the groups to be located, notified, and evacuated in the event that evacuation of the OCA is called for.
Procedures used by the Security Force define which evacuation route(s) will be used by the various groups in the OCA.
Evacuation Implementation The EC will sound the evacuation alarm and announce instructions for evacuation of the OCA over the public address system. Upon hearing the alarm and/or evacuation order, all non-essential personnel will evacuate.
ERO personnel will report to the TSC, OSC, or EOF for assignment.
The EC will notify the TSC Security Supervisor that an Owner Controlled Area Evacuation is ordered and will advise him/her of all pertinent information affecting the evacuation, including priorities and/or special conditions which exist to enable the evacuation to be conducted in a safe manner. Security will assign specific areas of the OCA, outside the PA, for which they are responsible for personnel notification.
The TSC Security Supervisor will immediately initiate the evacuation procedures for the OCA, outside the PA including: (these actions may occur at the Alert level)
- 1. Notification of all security patrols and tour guides of the evacuation.
- 2. Notification of all non-company groups working in or using portions of the OCA.
- 3. Initiate sweeps of recreation areas and assist in personnel accountability.
EP3:4 5-17 St. Lucie, Rev. 65
- 5. RESPONSE TO ACCIDENT CONDITIONS (continued) 5.2 2. 2. Owner Controlled Area Evacuation (continued)
Evacuation Implementation (continued)
Upon declaration of an Owner Controlled Area Evacuation, the Security Force will conduct personnel accountability in accordance with emergency procedures. An initial list of individuals in the PA is established in 30 minutes and continuously updated until all individuals are accounted for. The number of security officers on duty at any time is adequate to handle the evacuation of personnel in the OCA should such an action be called for by the EC.
Personnel Actions When an evacuation is ordered, all non-essential personnel shall exit the PA via their normal gate unless otherwise directed by the EC. Non-essential personnel shall travel from the plant site following the designated evacuation route. Figure 5.2 shows the evacuation route(s) for personnel. It is expected that the primary evacuation route will not be affected by adverse weather or traffic conditions. If a release is in progress and the potential exists for contamination of evacuees, they will be directed to an off-site assembly area. The primary assembly area for evacuated personnel is the Jaycee Public Park on Highway A1A, located approximately 7 1/2 miles north of the plant on the road to Ft. Pierce. The alternate assembly area, south of the plant, is Jensen Public Beach Parking Area. All personnel will be requested to remain at the assembly area until instructed otherwise.
- 3. Off-site Area Protective Measures An off-site area evacuation is the orderly withdrawal of all persons from the portion of the public areas surrounding the plant which have been affected by the emergency. The criteria for the initiation of the evacuation are determined by the Department of Health as specified in the State Plan. Appendix III of the State Plan describes evacuation measures and provides maps indicating designated evacuation routes.
Evacuation time estimates have been performed in accordance with NUREG/CR-7002. Annually, an analysis is performed for population changes. Figure 5-3 (Figure III-21 in the State Plan) is a map of the evacuation routes for the general public. Maps and text describing evacuation routes, monitoring points, and reception centers are provided in the State Plan.
EP3:4 5-18 St. Lucie, Rev. 65
- 5. RESPONSE TO ACCIDENT CONDITIONS (continued) 5.2 3. Off-site Area Protective Measures (continued)
The EC (RM when the EOF is operational) will recommend offsite protective actions based on the criteria shown in Figure 5-1, Protective Action Recommendations.
The St. Lucie and Martin County Public Safety/Emergency Management Directors and the State Division of Emergency Management will be responsible for the direction and implementation of the necessary protective actions as specified in the State Plan, including notification and coordination with other State and local assistance agencies.
It will be the responsibility of the St. Lucie and Martin County Public Safety Departments to notify the general public if an evacuation is warranted. This will be accomplished as discussed in Sections 5.2.4 and 5.2.8.
The State Plan describes the basis for the choice of recommended actions for the Plume Exposure Pathway EPZ during emergency conditions. Protective action decisions are made on the basis of information which becomes available as a result of accident assessment. The Bureau of Radiation Control Standard Operating Procedures also discuss the process by which state officials collect information and make recommendations. The Bureau of Radiation Control Standard Operating Procedures also discuss assessment actions which would form a basis for recommendations. The State and County Plans point out that EPA Protective Action Guides will be an important basis for Protective Action Recommendations (PARs).
- 4. Public Warning and Information Chapter 5,Section III to the State Plan, provides information on warning of the public, in general, and Appendix III Section VI discuss warning procedures in St.
Lucie and Martin Counties, in particular.
Prompt notification systems are discussed therein. FPL has purchased and installed an alert (siren) and notification system as described in Section 5.2.8.
Notification to the population and arrangements with public communications media are described in the State Plan. Chapter 7 to the State Plan provides the guidance for keeping the public informed about the potential hazards, emergency response, and protective measures that can be taken to minimize or avoid public health effects. Chapter 7 also provides procedures for the timely and accurate collection, coordination, and dissemination to the public of such information.

- 5. RESPONSE TO ACCIDENT CONDITIONS (continued) 5.2 4. Public Warning and Information (continued)
Chapter 7, Figures 7-1 to 7-8 of the State Plan also provides for sample releases to be used for media. These are consistent with FPL's classification scheme.
These are examples of specific prior arrangements that have been made to use public communication media for issuing emergency instructions to the public.
Section VIII of Appendix III discusses annual orientation of the media.Section VI of Appendix III indicates TV and radio stations which would be used to alert the public.
- 5. Population Exposure Estimates Population exposure estimates are discussed in Chapter 13,Section IV of the State plan. Bureau of Radiation Control Standard Operating Procedures discuss the projected dose calculation process and assessment and monitoring in the Ingestion Exposure Pathway EPZ. Standard Operating Procedures are used to determine dose rates.
- 6. Special Needs Population Section XII of Appendix III of the State Plan contains a discussion of evacuation of special need populations.
- 7. Population Distribution The State Plan contains maps showing population distribution, and it describes the means for notifying transient and resident population. Population maps and tables are included in Appendix III of the State Plan (St. Lucie Site Plan).
- 8. Alert and Notification System (ANS)
FPL has purchased an alert and notification system for use by the St. Lucie and Martin County Public Safety/Emergency Management Directors in alerting the population of the need to possibly take protective actions. The system consists of 90 electronic sirens located throughout the Plume Exposure Pathway EPZ. These electronic sirens have public address capability for voice messages. Upon sounding the sirens, the affected public, keyed through the public information program, should turn on their radios to the local Emergency Alert System (EAS) radio station and await emergency information and instructions. Backup Alert Notification System for the St. Lucie Nuclear Power Plant is achieved through physical Route Altering, which is contained in the Radiological Response Plans and procedures for the State of Florida and Offsite response Organizations in the EPZ that have been approved by FEMA in accordance with Title 44 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) 44CFR350.12 and 14.
EP3:4 5-20 St. Lucie, Rev. 65
- 5. RESPONSE TO ACCIDENT CONDITIONS (continued) 5.3 Radiological Exposure Control
- 1. On-site Radiation Protection Program An objective of emergency response is to minimize radiation exposure to individuals both on-site and off-site. Situations may arise, however, when observance of this goal is inconsistent with personnel or plant safety. In anticipation of such needs, guidelines have been established for emergency conditions. The guidelines on which the emergency radiation protection program is based are stated below.
Exposure to emergency response personnel should be maintained As Low As Reasonably Achievable (ALARA). Actions taken during an emergency should take into consideration the amount of exposure required to accomplish the task verses the potential benefit to the public health and safety.
Conditions may warrant re-entry into high radiation areas leading to exposure in excess of the regulatory limit. Except for rescue of personnel (life-saving only),
authorization must be given in advance by the Emergency Coordinator (EC) in consultation with the TSC RP Supervisor. If time permits the EC should obtain concurrence from the Recovery Manager (if the EOF is operational). In any case where regulatory limits have been exceeded the EC shall notify the RM of the event.
For those remote circumstances involving an event in progress, and obtaining EC approval will result in leaving the accident scene or decrease the victim(s) chance of survival, lifesaving actions may be performed without obtaining EC approval.
The EC shall be notified immediately following the rescue operation.
Re-entry personnel that have been selected/chosen to exceed regulatory exposure limits should be volunteers, broadly familiar with the risks involved (radiosensitivity of fetuses, effects of acute exposures, etc.), and whose normal duties have trained them for such missions.
EPA 400, "Manual of Protective Action Guides and Protective Actions for Nuclear Incidents," EPA 400-R-92-001 states that "To assure adequate protection of minors and the unborn during emergencies, the performance of emergency services should be limited to non-pregnant adults." FPL endorses this guidance; however, FPL recognizes that it is the right of the worker to make the decision to perform as an on-site emergency worker, understanding the potential risks involved.
EP3:4 5-21 St. Lucie, Rev. 65
- 5. RESPONSE TO ACCIDENT CONDITIONS (continued) 5.3 1. On-site Radiation Protection Program (continued)
For the following missions, (1) TOTAL DOSE(2) THYROID(3) the exposure limit is: (TEDE) (CDE)
Performance of actions that would not 5 REM 50 REM directly mitigate the event, minimize escalation, or minimize effluent releases.
Performance of actions that mitigate the 10 REM 100 REM escalation of the event, rescue persons from a non-life threatening situation, minimize exposures or minimize effluent releases.
Performance of actions that decrease the 25 REM 250 REM severity of the event or terminate the processes causing the event in an attempt to control effluent releases to avoid extensive exposure of large populations. Also, rescue of persons from a life-threatening situation.
Rescue of persons from a life-threatening (5) (5) situation. (Volunteers should be above the age of 45.)(4)
NOTE 1 Both Total Dose (TEDE) and Thyroid Dose (CDE) should be used for purposes of controlling exposure.
NOTE 2 Protective clothing, including respirators should be used where appropriate.
(1) Exposure limits to the lens of the eye are 3 times the Total Dose (TEDE) values listed.
(2) Total Dose (TEDE) is the total dose from both external and internal (weighted) sources - Total Effective Dose Equivalent.
(3) Thyroid Dose (CDE) commitment from internal sources - Committed Dose Equivalent. The same dose limits also apply to other organs (CDE), skin (Shallow Dose Equivalent) and extremities (Extremity Dose Equivalent).
(4) Volunteers with full awareness of risks involved including numerical levels of dose at which acute effects of radiation will be incurred and numerical estimates of the risk of delayed effects.
(5) No upper limit for Total Dose (TEDE) and/or Thyroid Dose (CDE) has been established because it is not possible to pre-judge the risks that one person should be allowed to take to save the life of another.
Also, no specific limit is given for thyroid dose since in the extreme case, complete thyroid loss might be acceptable sacrifice for a life saved. This should not be necessary if respirators and/or thyroid protection for rescue personnel are available as the result of adequate planning.
EP3:4 5-22 St. Lucie, Rev. 65
- 5. RESPONSE TO ACCIDENT CONDITIONS (continued) 5.3 2. Dose Records FPL Nuclear Division procedures provide for conducting the personnel dosimetry program. The company has the capability of determining personnel radiation exposures on a 24 hour2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> per day basis. Dose records for all individuals exposed to ionizing radiation at FPL's facilities are maintained.
All emergency response personnel under the authority of FPL who will potentially be exposed to radiation in the course of their duties will be monitored by the plant radiation exposure monitoring program. Personnel in this category will be issued the appropriate personal dosimetry devices.
Since, by their very nature, emergency exposures requiring immediate action are not planned, they are not controlled as a Planned Special Exposure. Dose received from exposure under emergency conditions will be added to the dose received during the current year, prior to the emergency, to determine compliance with the occupational dose limits in 10 CFR 20.
Doses above regulatory limits will require reporting pursuant to 10 CFR 20.2202 and 20.2203. Any dose in excess of the annual limits specified in Section 20.1201(a) will be accounted for in accordance with 10 CFR 20.1206(e). If an individual exceeds any of these limits, then that individual will not be available for additional dose under 20.1201(a).
- 3. Contamination Control and Decontamination Procedures A personnel decontamination washroom and shower room with chemical decontamination agents is provided on the ground floor of the Auxiliary Buildings.
Except in cases of serious injury, accepted decontamination practices will be employed on-site. Life endangering injuries or injuries such as extensive burns, serious wounds, or fractures shall receive prompt attention in preference to decontamination. Personnel with injuries involving radiation or radioactive contamination will be handled as discussed in Section 2.5.1. Decontamination of uninjured personnel must be attempted at contamination levels greater than minimum detectable activity as defined in Health Physics / Radiation Protection procedures.
EP3:4 5-23 St. Lucie, Rev. 65
- 5. RESPONSE TO ACCIDENT CONDITIONS (continued) 5.3 3. Contamination Control and Decontamination Procedures (continued)
Any item of equipment, once having been taken inside a controlled area, requires a survey for possible contamination prior to its removal from the controlled area.
Equipment regularly required within a controlled area will be maintained within the controlled area. Areas within the Plant or items suspected of contamination will be checked before normal use is permitted. Laboratory analysis of swipes will be undertaken, and an area or item will be declared suitable for normal use if contamination levels are less than 1,000 dpm/100 cm2. Should contaminated equipment be discovered, it will be stored and either decontaminated or disposed of in accordance with Plant procedures.
Food for emergency workers will be brought in from off-site, if necessary. The plant drinking water is obtained from the Ft. Pierce water supply. It is unlikely that ingestion of contaminated food or water will occur.
Frequent surveys of habitable areas utilized for emergency response (i.e. Control Room, TSC and OSC) will be performed to assure these areas remain uncontaminated. Special attention to drinking water and food supplies will be given to assure that these supplies remain uncontaminated.
- 4. Radioactive Wastes Radioactive wastes (resins, trash, etc.) accumulated during an emergency will be handled by normal plant procedures. Any special circumstances will be handled on a case-by-case basis.

- 5. RESPONSE TO ACCIDENT CONDITIONS (continued) 5.4 Recovery and Re-entry
- 1. On-site Once the hazard potential has passed, steps must be taken to recover from the incident. All actions should be preplanned in order to limit exposures. Access to the area will be controlled and personnel exposures will be documented.
The Recovery Manager/EC has the responsibility for determining when the on-site conditions are stable and it is appropriate to enter the recovery phase. The Recovery Organization consists of an augmented Expanded Emergency Response Organization consisting of existing FPL emergency personnel and additional resources from both the company and contracted agencies. The Emergency Response Managers would continue their assigned duties with additional personnel to use as necessary. The Recovery Manager (or EC) will evaluate the status of the plant by reviewing all current and pertinent data available from emergency response and/or monitoring teams. The recovery phase will begin only when plant conditions are stable and the following guidelines are met:
- 1. Radiation levels in all in-plant areas are stable or decreasing with time.
- 2. Releases of radioactive materials to the environment from the plant are under control or have ceased.
- 3. Any fire, flooding, or similar emergency conditions are controlled or have ceased.
- 4. The reactor is in a stable condition.
At the time of initiating activities to enter the recovery phase, the Recovery Manager will be responsible for informing all applicable agencies (e.g., Federal, State, and local agencies) that on-site conditions have stabilized and activities for recovering from the incident can now begin. Once these agencies and the Emergency Control Officer (ECO) have been informed, the Recovery Manager has the authority to de-escalate the emergency classification.
Planned recovery actions which may result in a radioactive release will be evaluated by the Recovery Manager and his/her staff in advance. Such planning and data pertaining to the possible release will be reported to the appropriate off-site emergency response organizations and agencies.
EP3:4 5-27 St. Lucie, Rev. 65
- 5. RESPONSE TO ACCIDENT CONDITIONS (continued) 5.4 1. On-site (continued)
Re-entry into an affected area may be required before entering the recovery phase. Re-entry into an evacuated area will be made by the Emergency Response Organization personnel when required for one or more of the following reasons:
- 1. To ascertain that all personnel who were in affected area have been evacuated, or to search for unaccounted personnel.
- 2. To assist in evacuating injured or incapacitated personnel from the affected area.
- 3. To perform operations which may mitigate the effect of the emergency or hazardous condition.
- 4. To determine the nature and extent of the emergency and/or radiological conditions.
- 5. To establish definite personnel exclusion area boundaries.
Re-entry to the affected areas on-site will take place only under the authority of the Emergency Coordinator. The TSC RP Supervisor is responsible for evaluating the existing emergency conditions and informing the Emergency Coordinator of the advisability of re-entry. For emergencies inside the Radiation Controlled Area (RCA), the TSC RP Supervisor will supervise the initial entry of the Emergency Response Organization personnel and all subsequent entries until radiation areas have been properly marked. More detailed guidance for re-entry teams is contained in plant procedures.
- 2. Off-site State and County officials would be in control of recovery and re-entry off-site.
Population exposure estimates are discussed in the State plan. Chapter 11 discusses the Ingestion Exposure Pathway EPZ. The State Plan (Chapter 13, Recovery and Re-entry) also discusses population dose measurement.

The major elements that should be tested include the following:
Off hours staffing (6 P.M. - 4 A.M.)
Activation of Joint Information Center Use of fire control teams Use of medical support personnel Use of Security personnel for prompt access to emergency equipment or support Use of one or more portions of backup communications for notification Field monitoring Capability for determining the magnitude and impact of the particular components of a release Assembly and accountability Initial recovery planning activities EP3:4 7-5 St. Lucie, Rev. 65
- 7. MAINTAINING EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS (continued) 7.1 4. Conduct of Exercises, Drills and Tests (continued)
- 1. Exercises (Integrated Drills)
Additionally, in each eight calendar year exercise cycle, the content of scenarios during drills and exercises must provide the opportunity for the ERO to demonstrate proficiency in the key skills necessary to respond to the following scenario elements:
hostile action directed at the plant site, no radiological release or an unplanned minimal radiological release that does not require public protective actions, an initial classification of or rapid escalation to a Site Area Emergency or General Emergency, implementation of strategies, procedures, and guidance developed under 10CFR50.54(hh)(2), and integration of offsite resources with onsite response.
This emergency response exercise will be critiqued by Florida Power & Light Company controller/evaluators and other evaluators, as appropriate, from Federal, State, and local agencies.
During the interval between biennial exercises, adequate emergency response capabilities will be maintained by conducting drills, including at least one drill involving a combination of some of the principal functional areas of emergency response capabilities.
The principal functional areas of emergency response include activities such as management and coordination of emergency response, accident assessment, protective action decision-making, and plant system repair and corrective actions.
During this off-year drill, activation of all of the emergency response facilities (TSC, OSC, EOF) would not be necessary, there would be an opportunity to consider accident management strategies, supervised instruction would be permitted, operating staff would have the opportunity to resolve problems (success paths) rather than have controllers intervene, and the drills could focus on on-site training objectives.
EP3:4 7-6 St. Lucie, Rev. 65
- 7. MAINTAINING EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS (continued) 7.1 4. Conduct of Exercises, Drills and Tests (continued)
- 2. Radiological Monitoring Drill A radiological monitoring drill will be conducted at least once every calendar year. These drills will include collection and analysis of sample media (i.e. air). As an integral part of this annual drill, communications and the understanding of messages between the off-site monitoring team(s) and the TSC RP Supervisor will be tested. Radiation Protection Department personnel will participate in health physics drills semi-annually and one of the semi-annual drills may be incorporated into the radiological monitoring drill.
As indicated in Chapter 14,Section III of the State Plan, off-site radiological monitoring drills will be conducted and these drills will involve the collection of sample media.
- 3. Medical Emergency Drill A medical emergency drill involving a simulated contaminated individual, with provisions for activation of the plant First Aid Team will be conducted at least once every calendar year. Participation by local support services (i.e., ambulance and off-site medical treatment facility) will be tested separately once per year or as part of the annual medical drill.
- 4. Hostile Action Based (HAB) Drills/Exercises Hostile Action Based drills will be conducted to support the exercise (Integrated Drill) schedule.

- 7. MAINTAINING EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS (continued) 7.1 4. 5. Fire Emergency Drill Fire drills are conducted in accordance with 10 CFR 50, Appendix R, III.I.3. The Fire Protection Program is described in greater detail in plant administrative procedures.
- 6. Communications Tests and Drills Communications with State and local governments within the Plume Exposure Pathway Emergency Planning Zone (EPZ) will be tested monthly. Communications with the NRC via the Emergency Notification System (ENS) will be tested monthly. On an annual basis, communications to the State EOC, St. Lucie and Martin County EOCs will be tested. As part of the annual test certain information will be exchanged. It will be determined whether or not the content of the drill messages was understood. The annual drill may be performed as part of an exercise.
As indicated in Chapter 14,Section III of the State Plan, the State conducts communications drills at least annually. These drills include "communications between the nuclear power plants, State, and local emergency operation centers and field assessment teams...". Chapter 6 of the State Plan indicates the equipment tested during drills.
- 7. Unannounced Drills At least one communications drill per year will be unannounced.
This unannounced drill will include notification to all primary off-site response agencies (i.e. DEM, Department of Health, County Departments of Public Safety) and those FPL emergency response personnel required to be notified based upon the drill scenario. The unannounced communication drill could coincide with an exercise, or an actual Emergency Plan activation.
EP3:4 7-8 St. Lucie, Rev. 65
- 7. MAINTAINING EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS (continued) 7.1 5. Evaluation During a drill or an exercise, controllers may take measures in response to actions taken by the participants that might affect the planned outcome (objective of the drill or exercise). Minor errors in procedures, techniques or inappropriate prompting by controllers will be noted and discussed during the post-drill/exercise evaluation.
Following an exercise, the site Emergency Preparedness Manager, plant management, FPL controller/evaluators, and principal participants in the exercise will discuss and evaluate the exercise. Drill evaluations will also be conducted, though personnel involvement may be different.
The evaluation should be based on the ability of participants to follow emergency procedures, the adequacy of emergency procedures, and the adequacy of emergency equipment and supplies. Plant management and staff will be responsible for recommending necessary changes in the Emergency Plan and/or Emergency Plan Implementing Procedures (EPIPs) to the site Emergency Preparedness Manager.
The site Emergency Preparedness Manager or designee in Emergency Preparedness, is responsible for making changes to the Emergency Plan and/or EPIPs.
