EXECUTIVE

SUMMARY

On September 13, 2000, an exercise was conducted in the plume exposure pathway emergency planning zones (EPZ) around the Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant.

The purpose of the exercise was to assess the level of State and local preparedness in responding to a radiological emergency. This exercise was held in accordance with the Federal Emergency Management Agency's (FEMA) policies and guidance concerning the exercise of State and local Radiological Emergency Response Plans (RERP's) and procedures.

The most recent exercise at this site was conducted on July 21 - 22, 1998. The qualifying emergency preparedness exercise was conducted on December 8, 1981.

FEMA wishes to acknowledge the efforts of the many individuals in the State of Minnesota, Goodhue, and Dakota counties, the State of Wisconsin and Pierce County who participated in the exercise.

Protecting the public health and safety is the full-time job of some of the exercise participants and an additional assigned responsibility for others. Still others have willingly sought this responsibility by volunteering to provide vital emergency services to their communities. Cooperation and teamwork of all the participants were evident during this exercise.

This report contains the evaluation of the biennial exercise and the following out-of sequence activities:

Minnesota Dakota County Goodhue County Wisconsin Pierce County Congregate Care; Reception Center - Evacuee/Vehicle Monitoring, Decontamination, and Registration; Medical Services - Facilities; Medical Services - Transportation; Not Applicable Emergency Workers Vehicle Monitoring/Decontamination; Emergency Workers Vehicle Monitoring/Decontamination; Reception Center - Evacuation Monitoring/Decontamination; Medical Services - Facilities; Congregate Care Center; Medical Services - Transportation; Reception Center - Registration; Implementation of Protective Action - Schools (EV2) 1

The State and local organizations, except where noted in this report, demonstrated knowledge of their emergency response plans and procedures and adequately implemented them. No Deficiencies were identified during this exercise. Four Areas Requiring Corrective Action (two for the State of Minnesota, one for the State of Wisconsin, and one for Pierce County) were identified during this exercise. There were three prior issues (two for the State of Minnesota and one for Pierce County). All prior issues were resolved during this exercise.

II.

INTRODUCTION On December 7, 1979, the President directed FEMA to assume the lead responsibility for all off-site nuclear planning and response. FEMA's activities are conducted pursuant to 44 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Parts 350, 351, and 352. These regulations are a key element, in the Radiological Emergency Preparedness (REP) Program established following the Three Mile Island Nuclear Station accident in March 1979.

FEMA Rule 44 CFR 350 establishes the policies and procedures for FEMA's initial and continued approval of State and local governments' radiological emergency planning and preparedness for commercial Nuclear Generating plants. This approval is contingent, in part, on State and local government participation in joint exercises with licensees.

FEMA's responsibilities in radiological emergency planning for fixed nuclear facilities include the following:

Taking the lead in off-site emergency planning and in the review and evaluation of RERPs and procedures developed by State and local governments; Determining whether such plans and procedures can be implemented on the basis of observation and evaluation of exercises of the plans and procedures conducted by State and local governments; Responding to requests by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) pursuant to the Memorandum of Understanding between the NRC and FEMA dated June 17, 1993 (Federal Register, Vol. 58, No. 176, dated September 14, 1993).

Coordinating the activities of Federal agencies with responsibilities in the radiological emergency planning process:

U.S. Department of Agriculture U.S. Department of Commerce U.S. Department of Energy U.S. Department of Health and Human Services U.S. Department of the Interior U.S. Department of Transportation U.S. Environmental Protection Agency U.S. Food and Drug Administration U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Representatives of these agencies serve on the FEMA Region V Regional Assistance Committee (RAC), which is chaired by FEMA.

3

Formal submission of the RERPs for the Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant to FEMA Region V by the State of Minnesota, the State of Wisconsin, and involved local jurisdictions occurred on December 4, 1981 and April 4, 1984, respectively. Formal approval of these RERPs was granted by FEMA to the State of Minnesota during September 1985 and to the State of Wisconsin during May 1985, under 44 CFR 350.

A REP exercise was conducted on September 13, 2000 by FEMA Region V to assess the capabilities of State and local offsite emergency preparedness organizations in implementing their RERPs and procedures to protect the public health and safety during a radiological emergency involving the Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant. The purpose of this exercise report is to present the exercise results and findings on the performance of the offsite response organizations (ORO) during a simulated radiological emergency.

The findings presented in this report are based on the evaluations of the Federal evaluator team, with final determinations made by the FEMA Region V RAC Chairperson, and approved by the Regional Director.

The criteria utilized in the FEMA evaluation process are contained in:

NUREG-0654/FEMA-REP-1, Rev. 1, Criteria for Preparation and Evaluation of Radiological Emergency Response Plans and Preparedness in Support of Nuclear Generating Plants, November 1980; FEMA-REP-14, Radiological Emergency Preparedness Exercise Manual, September 1991; and FEMA-REP-15, Radiological Emergency Preparedness Exercise Evaluation Methodology, September 1991.

Section III of this report, entitled "Exercise Overview", presents basic information and data relevant to the exercise. This section of the report contains a description of the plume pathway EPZ, a listing of all participating jurisdictions and functional entities evaluated, and a tabular presentation of the time of actual occurrence of key exercise events and activities.

Section IV of this report, entitled "Exercise Evaluation and Results," presents detailed information on the demonstration of applicable exercise objectives at each jurisdiction or functional entity evaluated in a jurisdiction-based, issues-only format. This section also contains: (1) descriptions of all Deficiencies and ARCAs assessed during this exercise, recommended corrective actions, and the State and local governments' schedule of corrective actions for each identified exercise issue; and (2) descriptions of unresolved ARCAs assessed during previous exercises and the status of the OROs' efforts to resolve them.

EXERCISE OVERVIEW Contained in this section are data and basic information relevant to the September 13, 2000 exercise to test the off-site emergency response capabilities in'the area surrounding the Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant. This section of the exercise report includes a description of the 10-mile plume pathway EPZ, a listing of all participating jurisdictions and functional entities that were evaluated, and a tabular presentation of the time of actual occurrence of key exercise events and activities.

A.

Plume Emergency Planning Zone Description The Northern States Power Company owns the Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant. The station consists of two pressurized water reactors (Units 1 arid 2);

both rated at 560 megawatts (MW). The operating licenses for the facility were granted in August 1973 (Unit 1) and October 1974 (Unit 2). Commercial operations began at the site during December 1973 (Unit 1) and December 1974 (Unit 2).

The plant site consists of approximately 560 acres located in the City of Red Wing (1997 population: 15,550) on the west bank of the Mississippi River in Goodhue County, Minnesota. The latitude of the site is 44' 37'3" north and the longitude is 920 37'9" west. The property is level to slightly rolling. The site elevation ranges from 675 to 706 feet above mean sea level (msl). The Mississippi River flows from northeast to southwest through the 10-mile EPZ. Steep bluffs surround the river, rising to more than 1,000 feet above msl about 1 Y2 miles northeast and southwest of the site. The Vermilion River flows northwest to southeast.

The total plume pathway EPZ population is 27,757 (1997 NSP data). The nearest large population centers are St. Paul, Minnesota (1990 population 21,325), 26 miles northwest of the site; Minneapolis-St. Paul, Minnesota (2,365,200), 30 miles northwest; Rochester, Minnesota (57,855), 41 miles south; and Eau Claire, Wisconsin (51,000), 55 miles east-northeast.

Goodhue County, in which the site is located, and the adjacent counties (Dakota in Minnesota and Pierce in Wisconsin) are predominately rural. Located within 2 miles of the site, however, is a Native-American-owned gambling casino, the Treasure Island Casino, which has an average daily attendance of 2,000-3,000 persons. The remaining land within a 10-mile radius of the. site, is almost exclusively agricultural.

Status of Jurisdictions Evaluated This subsection provides information on the evaluation of each participating jurisdiction and functional entity in a jurisdiction-based, issues-only format.

Presented below are definitions of the terms used in this subsection relative to objective demonstration status.

Met - Listing of the demonstrated exercise objectives under which no Deficiencies or ARCAs were assessed during this exercise and under which no ARCAs assessed during prior exercises remain unresolved.

Deficiency - Listing of the demonstrated exercise objectives under which one or more Deficiencies was assessed during this exercise. Included are a description of each Deficiency and recommended corrective actions.

Area Requiring Corrective Actions - Listing of the demonstrated exercise objectives under which one or more ARCAs were assessed during the current exercise or ARCAs assessed during prior exercises remain unresolved. Included is a description of the ARCAs assessed during this exercise and the recommended corrective action to be demonstrated before or during the next biennial exercise.

Not Demonstrated - Listing of the exercise objectives that were not demonstrated as scheduled during this exercise and the reason(s) they were not demonstrated.

Prior Issues - Resolved - Descriptions of ARCAs assessed during previous exercises that were resolved in this exercise and the corrective actions demonstrated.

Prior Issues - Unresolved - Descriptions of ARCAs assessed during prior exercises that were not resolved in this exercise. Included is the reason the ARCA remains unresolved and recommended corrective actions to be demonstrated before or during the next biennial exercise.

15

The following are definitions of the two types of exercise issues discussed in this report.

A Deficiency is defined in FEMA-REP-14 as "...an observed or identified inadequacy of organizational performance in an exercise that could cause a finding that offsite emergency preparedness is not adequate to provide reasonable assurance that appropriate protective measures can be taken in the event of a radiological emergency to protect the health and safety of the public living in the vicinity of a Nuclear Generating plant."

An ARCA is defined in FEMA-REP-14 as "...an observed or identified inadequacy of organizational performance in an exercise that is not considered, by itself, to adversely impact public health and safety."

FEMA has developed a standardized system for numbering exercise issues (Deficiencies and ARCAs). This system is used to achieve consistency in numbering exercise issues among FEMA Regions and site-specific exercise reports within each Region. It also expedites tracking of exercise issues on a nationwide basis.

The identifying number of Deficiencies and ARCAs includes the following elements, with each element separated by a hyphen (-).

0 Plant Site Identifier - A two-digit number, corresponding to the Utility Billable Plant Site Codes.

0 Exercise Year - The last two digits of the year the exercise was conducted.

0 Objective Number - A two-digit number corresponding to the objective numbers in FEMA-REP-14.

Issue Classification Identifier - (D = Deficiency, A - ARCA). Only Deficiencies and ARCAs are included in exercise reports. Plan Issues are reported to the State(s) via a letter from the Regional Director. Therefore, standardized issue numbers are not assigned to Plan Issues.

Exercise Identification Number - A separate two- (or three-) digit indexing number, assigned to each issue identified in the exercise.

PRIOR ISSUES - RESOLVED: Objectives 5 and 8 Objective 5 Issue No.: 39-99-05-A-01 19

==

Description:==

A radiological field team incorrectly-used the true beta value and applied it against the 100 mR/hr-gamma exposure rate turn-back ý'alue and subsequently exited the area. Because the gamma value did not exceed the turn back value, exiting the area was not required. (NUREG 0654, N.l.a., REP-14, page D.5-5-16)

Recommend Corrective Action: Provide additional training in the proper procedures for exiting the plume using correct turn-back value.

Corrective Action Demonstrated: Team members were cognizant of the turn back limit (100 mR/hour) and the administrative dose limit (3R). The former was clearly demonstrated when the team entered a 200mR/hour gamma field, immediately turned around, and radioed the Field Team Command Van regarding the level encountered and the action taken.

Objective 9 Issue No.: 39-99-08-A-01

==

Description:==

Contrary to the Minnesota Radiological Emergency Preparedness, Radiological Accident Deployment (RAD) Team Standard Operating Procedures, REP-1, Revision 10:5/99, page 12, following completion of airborne radioiodine and particulate sample collection, FMT-1 did not transport the samples to a low background area for initial analysis.

Recommended Corrective Action: Provide additional training in the proper procedures for air sample collection to include sample collection, exiting the plume, and proceeding to a low background area for field measurements. The principal of as Low as Reasonably Achievable (ALARA) should be emphasized.

Field monitoring personnel should minimize their exposure to radiation field during the execution of their monitoring and sampling mission. They should be trained to enter the plume, acquire the field measurements, collect samples, and exit the plume as quickly as possible. This includes relocating to a low background area for sample handling and field analysis.

Corrective Action Demonstrated: Minnesota Field Team 1 transported airborne radioiodine and particulate samples to a low background area prior to performing field measurements. In addition, the Team Captain effectively communicated with the team on how samples were to be taken and analyzed in advance of the sample collection process.

Description:==

Evidence of testing the DRDs to assure proper performance was not available. The Reception Center Director (Cottage Grove) indicated that the only testing done on the reception center DRDs was to zero them every three months. No other testing was performed. (NUREG 0654:K.3.a). Leak testing of dosimetry is required to be accomplished on an annual basis.

21

Recommendation: The State of Minnesota should implement proper testing procedures utilizing nationally accepted standards.

Schedule of Corrective Action: Incorporate requirement to annually perform dosimeter leak checking tests in Minnesota REP instrument maintenance policy and to include them in the Reception Center Standard Operating Procedures. Train individuals responsible for the maintenance of this equipment.

Re-demonstrate this objective at the Osseo Reception Center during the out-of sequence demonstration scheduled during the June 6, 2001 Monticello Exercise.

APPENDIX 3 EXERCISE OBJECTIVES AND EXTENT-OF-PLAY AGREEMENT This appendix lists the exercise objectives that were scheduled for demonstration in the Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant exercise on September 13, 2000 and the off-site extent-of-play agreement approved by FEMA Region V on July 19, 2000 for the State of Minnesota and on July 26, 2000 for the State of Wisconsin.

The exercise objectives, contained in FEMA-REP-15, Radiological Emergency Preparedness Exercise Evaluation Methodology, September 1991, represent a functional translation of the planning standards and evaluation criteria of NUREG-0654/FEMA-REP-1, Rev. 1, Criteria for the Preparation and Evaluation of Radiological Emergency Response Plans and Preparedness in Support of Nuclear Generating Plants, November 1980.

Because the exercise objectives are intended for use at all Nuclear Generating plant sites, and because of variations among off-site plans and procedures, an extent-of-play agreement is prepared by the State and approved by FEMA to provide evaluators with guidance on expected actual demonstration of the objectives.

A.

Exercise Objectives and Extent-of-Play Agreement Listed below are the specific REP objectives scheduled for demonstration during these exercises.

STA TE OF AHNNEOTA OBJECTIVE 1:

MOBILIZATION OF EMERGENCY PERSONNEL Demonstrate the capability to alert and fully mobilize personnel for both emergency facilities and field operations. Demonstrate the capability to activate and staff emergency facilities for emergency operations.

State EOC The State of Minnesota Emergency Operating Center (EOC) will be activated at an ALERT classification. The Minnesota Duty Officer (MDO) will take the initial call and make notifications by telephone and pager. The State EOC is located at 444 Cedar Street, Suite 223, St. Paul. The State will pre-position, due to long travel time, Liaisons (State Regional Program Coordinators in the Goodhue and Dakota County EOC's).

Fire command van will serve as a field command post and will relocate as determined by the scenario.

44

Joint Phlic iTnformation Center (12pC)

Radiological Accident Deployment (RAD) Teaims RAD teams (emergency phase field monitoring and sampling teams) will be mobilized at the ALERT classification. Notification will occur through the Minnesota Duty Officer to the Hennepin County Sheriffs Dispatch Center, who will in turn page team members.

RAD Team personnel will be pre-positioned at the Hastings Armory parking lot, 3050 Red Wing Blvd., Hastings. The JPIC will be activated at the ALERT classification.

Once activated, it will be maintained until the termination of the exercise. The work'area for the JPIC is located in the State EOC, and the media briefing room is in the Public Safety Media Room, 444 Cedar Street, St. Paul, Minnesota.

OBJECTIVE 2:

FACILITIES - EQUIPMENT, DISPLAYS AND WORK ENVIRONMENT Demonstrate the adequacy of facilities, equipment, displays, and other materials to support emergency operations.

The adequacy of the State EOC, JPIC, and the field team communications van will be demonstrated through the use of appropriate maps, status boards, and other displays.

OBJECTIVE 3:

DIRECTION AND CONTROL Demonstrate the capability to direct and control emergency operations.

Decisions and emergency activities will be coordinated by the State EOC State Incident Manager (State Incident Manager) in association with the State of Wisconsin's Officer In-Charge (OIC), and Dakota and Goodhue County Operations Chiefs. RAD team members will receive their direction from the RAD Team Captain (located in the comm.

van).

OBJECTIVE 4:

COMMUNICATIONS Demonstrate the capability to communicate with all appropriate emergency personnel at facilities and in the field.

The State EOC primary communication links are dedicated telephone lines to the Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant Technical Support Center (TSC), Emergency Operations Facility (EOF), and the Dakota and Goodhue County EOCs. Additional commercial telephone lines are available to EOC staff. When appropriate, hard copy capability will be demonstrated by facsimile machines. RAD Team activities will be directed by radio or cellular phone with commercial and satellite telepfione communications as a backup.

OBJECTIVE 5:

EMERGENCY WORKER EXPOSURE CONTROL Demonstrate the capability to continuously monitor and control radiation exposure to emergency workers.

45

This objective is re-demonstrating an ARCA received by the State Field Monitoring Teams during the 1999 Monticello Exercise. Refer to ARCA Issue Number 39-99-05-A

02.

All emergency workers have a dose limit of three remrn--no special missions will be demonstrated during this exercise. The turn back value for RAD field teams is 100 mR/hr. Evacuee monitoring personnel at the Reception Center will use group dosimetry in those areas where workers are in close proximity to each other (Stations 4,5,6,8).

Pocket dosimeters and TLDs will be worn by all emergency workers to monitor and control exposure as follows:

Emergency Worker Dosimeter Range Pick-up Location RAD Team Members 0-200 mR 0-20 R TLD Fire Station*

Military Affairs (alert and notification) 0-20 R TLD St. Paul Airport Ambulance crew (Do not take KI) 0-20 0mR TLD Reception Center Reception Center Staff 0-200 mR group dosimetry TLD Cottage Grove Armory e

Plymouth RAD team supplies are stored at Plymouth Fire Station #1, and Maple Grove supplies are stored at Maple Grove Fire Station #2.

OBJECTIVE 6:

FIELD RADIOLOGICAL MONITORING - AMBIENT RADIATION MONITORING Demonstrate the appropriate use of equipment and procedures for determining field radiation measurements.

Two RAD teams will demonstrate this objective, and data from two "phantom" teams will be provided to the RAD team captain and the PAC through controller messages. One team will be chosen to demonstrate the donning and removal of protective clothing on the day of the exercise, however the only protective clothing worn in the field will be surgical gloves. Eberline E-120 (0-50,000 CPM) survey meters and Eberline RO-2A (0-50 R/hr) survey meters will be used for determining field radiation measurements. A list of the equipment and current calibration records will be provided to the evaluator during the pre-exercise briefing.

OBJECTIVE 7:

OBJECTIVE 10:

ALERT AND NOTIFICATION Demonstrate the capability to promptly alert and notify the public within the 10-mile emergency planning zone (EPZ) and disseminate instructional messages to the public on the basis of decisions by appropriate state or local officials.

The development and dissemination of an Emergency Alert System (EAS) message will be demonstrated in the State EOC. EAS is activated only when there is a protective action for people. The State EAS Plan states that the code for a nuclear power plant incident is monitored by all relay stations and is set to automatically transmit the message 47

from the State EOC. The initial EAS message occurs as determined by the State Incident Manager in coordination with the State of Wisconsin, Pierce, Goodhue, and Dakota Counties following the approval of a PAR. An "EAS Writer" (located in the State EOC) will directly broadcast an EAS message using an encoder/decoder, which is automatically monitored by encoders/decoders by major relay stations. In addition, the EAS writer has the capability to send a message directly over NOAA tone alert radios and weather utilizing a computer link to the National Weather Service headquarters in Chanhassen, Minnesota. EAS messages will contain basic information regarding the event and areas affected. Additional information will be disseminated through the JPIC using special news broadcasts and news releases.

As part of the PAR approval process, after approval by the Minnesota State Incident Manager, the Wisconsin Officer-in-charge, and concurrence from the Dakota and Goodhue County Operations Chiefs and Pierce County via a conference call, sirens are activated by the counties. The actual time of the siren activation is determined by the Minnesota State Incident Manager and the Wisconsin Officer-in-Charge and coordinated with the Dakota and Goodhue County Operations Chiefs and the Pierce County Emergency Management Director.

A National Guard helicopter equipped with a public address system will warn recreational areas (weather permitting). The National Guard helicopter will operate from the Dakota County Law Enforcement Center located at 1580 Hwy 55, Hastings, MN. (Note: if FEMA evaluators wish to ride along, names and Social Security numbers must be provided in advance for security check). Sirens, weather radios and the broadcast of messages will be simulated.

OBJECTIVE 11:
