Reference Use MP0070R4

SH/O/B/2005/002 Page 2 of 8 Protocol for the Field Monitoring Coordinator During Emergency Conditions

1. Purpose To describe a systematic field monitoring method for sampling and identifying airborne plumes or liquid effluents in order to obtain field data indicative of the radiation exposure to the general public following an unplanned release of radioactive material.
2. References 2.1 Site specific procedures for emergency environmental monitoring:

CNS - HP/O/B/1009/004, Environmental Monitoring for Emergency Conditions Within Ten Mile Radius of CNS MNS - HP/0/B/1009/023, Environmental Monitoring for Emergency Conditions 2.2 EPA 400-R-92-001, Manual of Protective Action Guides and Protective Actions for Nuclear Incidents 2.3 Site specific emergency phone directories:

CNS - CNS Emergency Phone Directory MNS - RP/O/A/5700/014, Emergency Telephone Directory

3. Limits and Precautions 3.1 Field Monitoring Team environmental sampling performed during emergency conditions does not replace or substitute for normally required environmental monitoring.

3.2 During any drill or emergency, personnel safety and safe operation of the vehicle is of primary concern.

3.3 Potassium Iodide (KJ) tablets used for reducing radioiodine thyroid uptake are most effective if taken approximately two hours before an exposure is likely to occur. IF any member or members is likely to receive in excess of 25 rem thyroid dose (such as being in a 10 rem/hour iodine dose rate for 2.5 hours5.787037e-5 days <br />0.00139 hours <br />8.267196e-6 weeks <br />1.9025e-6 months <br /> without a GMRI respirator) the Radiation Protection Manager (RPM) may direct field monitoring team personnel to ingest one KI tablet. This should concur with notification of Duke Power medical authority that KI is prescribed for emergency response individuals.

SHO/0B/2005/002 Page 3 of 8

4. Procedure 4.1 Field Monitoring Team (FMT) Activation 4.1.1 Establish the number of survey teams that will be available for field monitoring.

0 Contact the TSC to determine the status and availability of field teams.

4.1.2 IF the site has not activated field teams, discuss with the Dose Assessors the need for team activation.

NOTE: The Field monitoring Coordinator (FMC) may request additional survey vehicles if emergency conditions warrant. Designations for these vehicles are displayed in Enclosure 5.1.

4.1.3 IF emergency conditions dictate, notify personnel at an alternate station for additional field monitoring support.

4.1.4 IF possible, ensure that at least one Field Monitoring Team (FMT) member from the affected station is on each FMT.

4.1.5 Obtain an Emergency Planning map for the affected station.

4.2 Field Monitoring Team (FMT) Communications 4.2.1 Ensure the EOF Base Radio is set as follows:

"* For MNS, Black Box Selector Switch to "A" AND Radio Line Selector to Position "1".

"* For CNS, Black Box Selector Switch to "D" AND Radio Line Selector to Position "2".

4.2.2 Establish radio communications with each available field team.

4.2.3 Maintain open radio communications with each FMT.

NOTE: Telephone numbers are displayed in Enclosure 5.2 (Telephone Numbers).

4.2.4 IF radio communications become inoperable, utilize telephone communications as a back-up.

SHIO/B/2005/002 Page 4 of 8 4.2.5 Provide only pertinent, general information when using the radio.

4.2.6 Communicate over the radio during a drill or exercise by beginning each transmission with "THIS IS A DRILL, THIS IS A DRILL".

NOTE: The phonetic alphabet is displayed on Enclosure 5.5 (Phonetic Alphabet).

4.2.7 Transmit information using the phonetic alphabet.

4.2.8 Follow Federal Communications Commission (FCC) guidelines at all times when using the radio for communication with the FMTs.

4.3 Locating and Tracking the Plume 4.3.1 Form field monitoring teams to perform environmental plume surveys.

4.3.2 Dispatch FMTs after vehicles and equipment have been confirmed operational.

4.3.3 Estimate which meteorological sector or sectors may appear to be affected by the plume according to predominant wind direction AND wind speed.

SH/O/B/2005/002 Page 5 of 8 NOTE: Major roadways delineate major territories surrounding the plant. Either all or a portion of the sections would be expected to be affected to some degree by radioactivity released from the plant. Major roadways are therefore utilized to provide access to suspected regions (outer edges, leading edge(s), centerline) of the plume as necessary.

"* Major roadways on the EPZ map are identified by numerical designations and responsibility level (federal, state, county, or city) designations.

"* Selected roadways on the EPZ map are identified by a specific name, rather than a numerical responsibility designation.

"* Predetermined sampling locations are denoted by a red text oval on the EPZ map.

The sampling point designator indicates the protective action zone the point is in and the mileage from the plant. For example, locations are designated in the format.

S-10-2 Where:

S = Evacuation Zone 10 = Mile Radius 2 = Sample Point #2 4.3.4 Direct the FMTs to traverse the appropriate meteorological sector or sectors nearest the station, utilizing major roadways, selected roadways, or predetermined sampling locations, as appropriate.

4.3.5 Advise the survey teams to remain aware of terrain during air sampling or surveying (i.e. wind breaks formed by landscape or vegetation) which could inhibit acquiring a representative sample.

4.3.6 Advise the survey vehicles to report all dose rates above background.

4.3.7 Periodically ask the field team members to report their accumulated dose.

4.3.8 Direct each FMT to pre-determined sample locations, as appropriate.

  • Utilize local landmarks and street names to indicate desired sampling location when a pre-determined location is not available or suitable.

4.3.9 Advise the FMTs that when possible they should park vehicles completely off the road when sampling AND to use emergency flashers and the strobe if available while stopped.

4.3.10 Record each field vehicle's sampling history on Enclosure 5.3, OR in the Field Monitoring Coordinator ERO Facility Log.

SH/O/BI2005/002 Page 6 of 8 4.3.11 Direct the field monitoring teams to systematically survey areas by obtaining air samples and/or beta/gamma measurements.

4.3.12 Request survey teams to report the maximum radiation level and location of the boundaries while enroute AND while at sampling locations.

4.3.13 Request FMT's report the location of plume edges based on instrument readings.

4.3.14 Direct the FMT to take an Iodine sample WHEN, but not limited to:

"* Fuel rod gap activity release has occurred.

"* Waste gas decay tank rupture has occurred.

"* Any suspected iodine release has occurred.

"* The source of release is unknown AND the FMT is in the presence of measurable activity.

4.3.15 Use Enclosure 5.8 (1-131 Dose Calculation Methodology) to convert field team 1-131 concentration to CDE thyroid dose rate.

4.3.16 Notify FMTs, as appropriate, of changing plant and meteorological conditions that may have an effect on environmental measurements.

  • Record meteorological plant status information communicated to FMTs on Enclosure 5.4.

4.3.17 Notify FMTs of plant status as reported on the most recent Emergency Notification Form.

SH/0/B/2005/002 Page 7 of 8 4.4 Special Sampling NOTE: Sample locations and sample collection methodologies are described in Reference 2.1.

4.4.1 WHEN plant conditions are considered to be stabilized, direct the field monitoring team to perform special sampling. Special sampling may include, but are not limited to:

NOTE: Do NOT take smear samples on automobile.

"* Smears of surrounding areas (stationary, horizontal surfaces).

"o .Vegetation

"* Sediment

"* Water

"* Milk

"* Integrated dose over time using TLDs 4.4.2 Instruct teams to exercise care to prevent sample cross contamination.

4.4.3 Direct the FMT to include (at minimum) the following information on the each sample container:

"* Sample location.

"* Sample reference date and time.

"* Sample collected by.

4.5 Sample Analysis 4.5.1 Direct the field monitoring teams to retain the samples for analysis.

4.5.2 Consult with the RPM as to the best sample drop off and storage location.

SHwO/B/2005/002 Page 8 of 8 NOTE: Normally, the samples will be analyzed at the ENRAD Laboratory. However, other laboratories may be used, including MNS, CNS, ONS, or other, as appropriate.

4.5.3 Work with the RPM and Laboratory Management to make appropriate arrangements for sample transport for analysis.

4.6 FMT Dose Tracking 4.6.1 IF conditions are such that any FMT member may receive 500 mrem or greater during the drill or emergency, use Enclosure 5.6 (Field Monitoring Team Radiation Exposure Record) to track the FMT's exposure.

4.6.2 Use Enclosure 5.7 as guidance for dose to workers providing emergency services.

4.7 FMT Turnover 4.7.1 Coordinate FMT shift relief with the TSC as appropriate.

4.7.2 Direct the FMTs to submit all data sheets to Emergency Planning Coordinator.

4.7.3 Direct the FMT members to report to a designated counting facility for a post job whole body count, as appropriate.
