Evaluate onsite and in-plant radiological conditions. Provide guidance to the In-Plant Monitoring Teams. Until the EOF Dose Assessment area is functional, perform offsite dose projections, direct field-monitoring activities, and make PAR's.

NOTE

a. A radiological release is defined as a radioactive release to the environment, detected by effluent monitors or environmental monitoring, above normal levels that is attributable to a declared event. Normal levels are the highest reading in the last 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> prior to the emergency, excluding the current peak value for effluent monitors.

b. In addition, the Emergency Director has the discretion to declare that a radiological release is occurring based on plant conditions that would indicate that a release is in progress. (i.e., A Steam Generator Tube Rupture with an ARV lifting)

c. A dose assessment projection is required within 15 minutes after it is recognized that a known radiological release is in progress.

Immediately have a qualified individual go to the "RELEASE ONGOING OR IMMINENT" section of this procedure if a known radiological release is in progress.

INITIAL ACTIONS

1. Obtain latest personnel exposure printout.

3. Obtain work packets and emergency identification badge.

4. Ensure the following emergency positions are staffed:

a. HP Foreman

b. HP Technicians

c. Dosimetry Personnel (manpower permitting)

d. Field Monitoring Team Communicator NOTE

a. Once the decision to evacuate the general public has been made FMT activities should be restricted to such activities as determining the source term for an unmonitored release or confirming the presence of radioactive plume.

Plume centerline tracking is of relatively minor importance in protecting the health and safety of the public and should not be attempted for highly radioactive plumes unless the information has some value in assisting in the evacuation of the public. FMT activities that contributed to expeditious evacuation and consequent reduction in radiation dose of the public should continue within the EPA emergency exposure guidelines if necessary.

b. The CEDE component of the TEDE dose cannot be directly determined by field measurements, therefore a correction factor of (2) should be applied to convert the DDE to the TEDE dose. This is accomplished by multiplying the Direct Reading Dosimeter reading by 2 to get the TEDE dose. When actual source term data becomes available a more accurate correction factor (CF)may be obtained using the offsite dose assessment computer. This can be accomplished by comparing TEDE dose rate to EDE dose rate as follows: CF=TEDE dose rate EDE dose rate Printed April 25, 2002 at 15:01
