EXECUTIVE

SUMMARY

On May 1, 2002, an exercise was conducted in the plume exposure pathway emergency planning zone (EPZ) around the Dresden Nuclear Generating Station by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), Region V. 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 FEMA's policies and guidance concerning the exercise of State and local Radiological Emergency Response Plans (RERPs) and procedures.

The previous exercise at this site was conducted on May 26, 1999. The qualifying emergency preparedness exercise was conducted on September 30, 1981.

FEMA wishes to acknowledge the efforts of the many individuals who participated in this exercise. In the State of Illinois the risk counties of Grundy, Kendall and Will participated along with the State Government.

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 final evaluation of the biennial exercise and the evaluation of the following out-of-sequence activities:

Grundy County Implementation of Protective Actions Schools - (EV- 2)

Will County Implementation of Protective Actions Schools - (EV- 2)

The State and local organizations, except where noted in this report, demonstrated knowledge of their emergency response plans and procedures and adequately implemented them. There were no Deficiencies or new Areas Requiring Corrective Action (ARCA) identified as a result of this exercise. Two ARCAs (objectives 5 and 14) assessed against the State of Illinois, relating to the Medical Services MS-1 Drill demonstration at the Clinton Power Station (1998) Exercise remain unresolved.

An ARCA (objective 11, Public instructions and Emergency Information) issued to Grundy County at the (2000) LaSalle Exercise remains unresolved.

II. INTRODUCTION On December 7, 1979, the President directed FEMA to assume the lead responsibility for all offsite 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 ke'element in the Radiological Emergency Preparedness (REP) Program that was 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 power plants. This approval is contingent, in part, on State and local governments' participation in joint exercises with licensees.

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

Taking the lead in offsite 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 the 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, September 14, 1993);

and

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

- U.S. Department of Commerce,

- U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission,

- U.S. Environmental Protection Agency,

- U.S. Department of Energy,

- U.S. Department of Health and Human Services,

- U.S. Department of Transportation,

- U.S. Department of Agriculture,

- U.S. Department of the Interior, and

- U.S. Food and Drug Administration.

Representatives of these agencies serve on the FEMA Region V Regional Assistance Committee (RAC) which is chaired by FEMA.

Formal submission of the RERPs for the Dresden Nuclear Generating Station to FEMA Z; - Region V by the State of Illinois and involved local jurisdictions occurred on March 31, 1981. Formal approval of these RERPs was granted by FEMA on October 14, 1982, under 44 CFR 350.

AREP exercise was conducted on May 1, 2002, 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 Dresden Nuclear Generating Station. 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 Power Plants," November 1980; FEMA-REP- 14, "Radiological Emergency Preparedness Exercise Manual,"

September 1991; and

  • FEMA "Radiological Emergency Preparedness: Exercise Evaluation Methodology," as published in the Federal Register Notice/Vol. 67, No. 80, dated April 25, 2002.

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 which were 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 criteria at each jurisdiction or functional entity evaluated in a jurisdiction-based, issues only format. This section also contains: (1) description of the ARCA assessed during this exercise, recommended corrective action, 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.

III. EXERCISE OVERVIEW Contained in this section are data and basic information relevant to the May 1, 2002, exercise to test the offsite emergency response capabilities in the area surrounding the Dresden Nuclear Generating Station. 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 which 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 Dresden Nuclear Generating Station is located on 953 rolling prairie acres in northeast Grundy County on the southern bank of the Illinois River. The topography of the site and its immediate environs is relatively flat, with elevations varying from 509 to 523 feet above sea level. The only significant topographic deviations in the area around the Dresden Station are the Kankakee Bluffs, 591 to 624 feet high, located just northeast of the site.

Portions of the site owned by Exelon Nuclear Corporation are leased for cattle grazing and field crops. Approximately 150 acres are used for grazing. Field crop cultivation occupies about another 300 acres. Recreational activity is in the form of hunting during legally prescribed seasons, with entry controlled by the agricultural lessee.

The Emergency Planning Zone (EPZ) for the Dresden Station consists of a circle with the Dresden Station as the center point. The EPZ extends ten miles outward in all directions from the Dresden Station for the plume exposure pathway planning zone and fifty miles outward for the ingestion exposure pathway planning zone. In the event of a serious accident at the Dresden Station, the plume exposure EPZ will be the area in which intensive efforts will be made to notify and protect residents and transient populations from exposure to radiation.

This EPZ includes the following counties and municipalities: Grundy County (Illinois), and the municipalities of Carbon Hill, Coal City, Diamond, Minooka, and Morris; Will County (Illinois), and the municipalities of Braidwood, Channanhon, Elwood, Joliet, Shorewood, and Wilmington; and a small portion of Kendall County (Illinois).

The population distribution in the 10-mile EPZ surrounding the Dresden Station is relatively low. The 1990 census population is approximately 58,022. Within 0-2 miles, there are 1,272 people; within 2-5 miles, 11,948 people and in the 5-10 mile area there are 44,802 people.

Outside of the Station's boundaries there is a substantial amount of industry.

Adjacent to the southern boundary of the Station is the Away-From-Reactor Operations Spent Fuel Storage Facility. The 2,550 megawatt electric, oil-fired Collins Electric Generating Station, owned by Commonwealth Edison, is one and 4

one half (1 Y2) miles west of the Dresden Station. Four miles southeast of the Dresden Station is the former Joliet Arsenal (36,000 acres) which now is comprised of two industrial areas, a national cemetery and 23,000 acres for the Midewin National Tallgrass Prairie and 4,000 acres being retained by the Army.

Within the EPZ of the Dresden Station there are industrial plants, chemical

-' production facilities, petroleum refining industries, warehousing, dry dock facilities and transportation equipment industries The majority of the remaining area in the Dresden Station EPZ is used for agriculture, predominately cash grain production. South of the Dresden Station is approximately twenty-seven (27) square miles of recreational and residential land.

The EPZ also contains four state parks and a conservation area.

These areas are served by various forms of transportation. Interstate 80 passes five miles to the north of the Dresden Station and Interstate 55 passes four miles to the east of the Dresden Station. The Illinois River, Des Plaines River and Kankakee River flow near the Station. Several railroads operate on tracks running through the Dresden Station EPZ. The railroads are: The Burlington Northern and Santa Fe Railway Company and Amtrak which is four (4) miles east of the Station; the Elgin, Joliet and Eastern Railroad which is one and one-half (1Y) miles west of the Station; the CSX Transportation Inc, is four (4) miles northwest of the Station; and the Union Pacific Railroad Company which is seven (7) miles east of the Station.

The majority of Joliet's population resides beyond the 10-mile EPZ.

  • 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 is also used to expedite tracking of exercise issues on a nationwide basis.

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

  • Plant Site Identifier - A two-digit number corresponding to the Utility Billable Plant Site Codes.
  • Exercise Year - The last two digits of the year the exercise was conducted.
  • Criterion Number - An alpha and two-digit number corresponding to the criteria numbers in the six Exercise Evaluation Areas described in Federal Register Notice/Vol. 67, No. 80 dated April 25, 2002, which amends FEMA REP 14, Radiological Emergency Preparedness Exercise Manual.

Issue Classification Identifier - (D = Deficiency, A = ARCA). Only Deficiencies and ARCA 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 Issue Identification Number - A separate two (or three) digit indexing number assigned to each issue identified in the exercise.

Description:

It was determined, through interviews and observation, that the John Warner Hospital ambulance crew has not been trained on the use of dosimetry. They were not knowledgeable of their administrative dose limits or of the radiation exposure reading/recording procedures (NUIREG-0654: H. 10 and K.3.a).

Recommendation: The John Warner Hospital ambulance crews should receive training in the use of dosimetry and administrative exposure levels, and recording procedures. Additionally, the John Warner/Ambulance Emergency Plan should be revised to reflect these emergency worker protection procedures.

Scheduled of Corrective Actions: Per the IEMA response to this issue, dated May 5, 1999, beginning in 1999. the State of Illinois' proposal under a Pilot Program presented to FEMA is that the State will continue to conduct medical drills to test the State's emergency medical system at the frequency required by FEMA guidance.

FEMA's Response: Medical Services Drills are being conducted under a Pilot Program presented by the State on May 5, 1999, and to date we have not met the FEMA Guidance Memorandum (GM) MS-1 requirements. The Pilot Program remains under evaluation and we are working with IEMA and IDNS staff to further demonstrate State and offsite medical capability.

Issue No.: 13-98-14-A-02

Description:

By interview with the John Warner Hospital's ambulance personnel, it was determined that neither KI nor appropriate information on the use of KI was issued to the responding ambulance personnel. Training on the use of KI by ambulance personnel has not been conducted, and a discussion with the hospital's ambulance director resulted in agreement that a training 16

program was needed and should be implemented (NUTREG-0654: H.10 and K.3.a).

Recommendation: The Clinton Ambulance crew should receive training in the use of KI. Also, the John Warner Hospital/Ambulance Emergency Plan should be revised to be consistent with the requirements of NUREG-0654.

Schedule of Corrective Actions: The corrective actions for this ARCA are dependent on the outcome of FEMA's decision on the State's proposal as cited in the Schedule of Corrective Actions response for issue number: 13-98-05-A-01.

FEMA's Response: Medical Services Drills are being conducted under a Pilot Program presented by the State on May 5, 1999, and to date have not met the FEMA Guidance Memorandum (GM) MS-i requirements. The Pilot Program remains under evaluation and we are working with IEMA and IDNS staff to further demonstrate State and offsite medical capability.

Description:

The EBS radio station (WCSJ/AM) used by Grundy County for disseminating emergency information to the public does not maintain a 24-hour staff capability.

Recommendation: Provisions should be made so the 24-hour capability requirement to disseminate emergency information to the public is met.

Schedule of Corrective Actions: Grundy County EMA is working with WCSJ to provide the ability to broadcast emergency messages on a 24-hour basis. This issue should be resolved in the first quarter of calendar year 2001.

FEMA Comment: Grundy County has established a Letter of Agreement with Will County, who has a 24-hour capability to issue emergency messages to the public on behalf of Grundy County for the Dresden Nuclear Power Station only. The radio station (WCSJ) is also responsible for broadcasting emergency information for Grundy County during an incident at the LaSalle or Braidwood Power Stations not withstanding adverse environmental conditions, such as floods and power outages. Grundy County is continuing their effort to work with WCSJ and alternate radio stations to obtain a 24 hour2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> capability.

In addition, this issue had previously addressed WCSJ Radio Station's inability to supply backup power. There is no requirement for backup power capability at radio stations, however, it is the responsibility of the Counties to identify alternate means of providing information to the public.
