Federal Emergency Management Agency Region V 536 South Clark Street, 6th Floor Chicago, IL 60605-1521 June 27, 2003 Mr. Eric Weiss, Chief Emergency Preparedness and Health Physics Section Division of Inspection Program Management Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Mail Stop: 06H 16 Washington, DC 20555

Dear Mr. Weiss:

Enclosed is a copy of the Final Report for the Radiological Emergency Preparedness (REP)

Plume Pathway Exercise conducted on March 26, 2003, for the Dresden Nuclear Generating Station. The State of Illinois, Grundy, Kendall and Will Counties participated in this exercise.

Exelon Nuclear Corporation, the utility owner/operator also participated in this exercise.

No Deficiencies were identified during this exercise. No Areas Requiring Corrective Action (ARCA) were identified for the State of Illinois and Will County. Two prior ARCAs issued to the State under Objectives 5 and 14 (under the former Exercise Evaluation Methodology) pertaining to Medical Services Drills remain unresolved.

Four ARCA were identified for Grundy County during this exercise. One ARCA each was identified under Criterion 1.c.1, Direction and Control, and Criterion 5.a. 1, Activation of Prompt Alert and Notification System, and two additional ARCA were identified under Criterion 5.b.1, Emergency Information and Instructions for the Public and the Media.

One ARCA was identified for Kendall County under Criterion 5.b.1, Emergency Information and Instructions for the Public and the Media. A detailed discussion of these issues can be found in Part IV of the Final Report.

Based on the results of the March 26, 2003, exercise, the offsite radiological emergency response plans and preparedness for the State of Illinois, Grundy, Kendall and Will Counties, site-specific to the Dresden Nuclear Generating Station can be implemented. These plans are adequate to provide reasonable assurance that appropriate measures can be taken offsite to protect the health and safety of the public.

Therefore, the Title 44 CFR, Part 350, approval of the offsite radiological emergency response plans and preparedness for the State of Illinois, site-specific to the Dresden Nuclear Generating Station, granted on October 14, 1982, remains in effect. Copies of this Report were transmitted to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) Region HI, the FEMA National Office and the State of Illinois.

If you should have any questions, please call me or have a member of your staff contact Woodie Curtis at (312) 408-5528.

Sincerely, EdwardG.-Buikema Regional Director Enclosure (1)

SUMMARY

On March 26, 2003, 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 1,2002. 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:

State of Illinois Monitoring and Decontamination of Evacuees /Emergency Workers - Evacuee Registration 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 for the State of Illinois or Will County during this exercise.

Two ARCA (Objectives 5 and 14) assessed against the State of Illinois, relating-to the Medical Services MS-I Drill demonstration at the Clinton Power Station (1998) Exercise remain unresolved. Four ARCA and one Planning Issue were identified for Grundy County during this exercise. One ARCA each were identified under Criterion l.c.1, Direction and Control, and Criterion 5.a.1, Activation of Prompt Alert and Notification System. Two ARCA and the Planning Issue were identified under Criterion 5.b.1, Emergency Information and Instructions for the Public and the Media.

1

One of the ARCA Identified under Criterion 5.b. I relating to the reversal of an Alert and Notification (A&N) sequence was cleared after two additional A&N sequences were demonstrated properly. One ARCA identified for Kendall County under Criterion 5.b.1, Emergency Information and Instructions for the Public and the Media, was re-demonstrated and cleared.

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 key 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 Region V by the State of Illinois and involved local jurisdictions occurred on March 31, 1981. Formal approval of the RERP for Illinois was granted by FEMA on October 14, 1982, under 44 CFR 350.

A REP exercise was conducted on March 26,2003, 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;

• PFEMA-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 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.

M. EXERCISE OVERVIEW Contained in this section are data and basic information relevant to the March 26, 2003, 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 fiuctional 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 5

one half (1'2) 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 (I}K) 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 ofJoliet's population resides beyond the 10-mile EPZ.

B. 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 is a definition of the terms used in this subsection relative to criterion demonstration status.

• Met - Listing of the demonstrated exercise criteria 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 criteria under which one or more Deficiencies were assessed during this exercise. Included is a description of each Deficiency and recommended corrective actions.

• Area Requiring Corrective Actions - Listing of the demonstrated exercise criteria 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 criteria which were not demonstrated as scheduled during this exercise and the reason they were not demonstrated.

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

• Prior ARCAs - Unresolved - Descriptions of ARCAs assessed during prior exercises which 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.

The following are definitions of the two types of exercise issues which are 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 power plant."

15

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

Issue No.: 13-98-05-A-01

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 (NUREG-0654: H.1O and K3.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 IMA 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 fiequency 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. The Pilot Program remains under evaluation and we are working with EMA 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 program was needed and should be implemented (NUREG-0654: H.1O and K.3.a).

Recommendation: The Clinton Ambulance crew should receive training in the use of KL 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 IL 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. The Pilot Program remains under evaluation and we are working with IMA and IDNS staff to further demonstrate State and offsite medical capability.

AREAS REQUIRINGCORRECTIVE ACTION: Criteria l.c.I; 5.a.l; 5.b.1; 5.b.l ISSUEFORCRITERION: 20-03-1.c.1-A-01 CONDITION: Tasks assigned by the Chairman of the Board of Commissioners and/or the Duty Officer were not always completed, nor were they always completed in a timely manner.

POSSIBLE CAUSE: The Chairman and the Duty Officer were at times pulled into discussions of issues that prevented them from following up on task or checking on assigned tasks.

REFERENCE:

(NUREG-0654, MAd., 2.a., b.)

EFFECT: The Chairman did not check with the Duty Officer to verify that he had contacted the radio station. Likewise, the Duty Officer did not contact the radio as he was pulled into a discussion as to what time should be taken from the NARS form for posting on the status board. Information regarding the release from the Dresden Plant was not announced in the EOC, this information would be important as the EOC is in the EPZ and in a sub-area that was evacuated.

RECOMMENDATION: Provide additional training to the decision-makers regarding direction and control and the need to ensure that all delegated tasks are accomplished in a timely manner. Revise procedures to ensure that verification is made to ensure all activities are accomplished. This must be re-demonstrated during the next biennial exercise.

ISSUE FOR CRITERION: 20-03-5.a.1-A-02 CONDITION: The initial alert and notification sequence was not accomplished in a timely manner. The decision was made at 1110 hours0.0128 days <br />0.308 hours <br />0.00184 weeks <br />4.22355e-4 months <br /> to sound sirens at 1115 hours0.0129 days <br />0.31 hours <br />0.00184 weeks <br />4.242575e-4 months <br /> and issue the initial message to the public. The message was not sent to the radio station until 1147 hours0.0133 days <br />0.319 hours <br />0.0019 weeks <br />4.364335e-4 months <br />, and the radio station would simulate broadcast at 1152 hours0.0133 days <br />0.32 hours <br />0.0019 weeks <br />4.38336e-4 months <br />.

POSSIBLE CAUSE: The Duty Officer was directed by the County Board Chairman, however, he resumed a discussion he had previously been having with the EOC OPS Officer regarding a NARS form and failed to contact the radio station. The Communications area did fax the message out to the other EOCs and municipalities but stated they were not to fax any messages to the media, including the radio station.

REFERENCE:

10 CFR Part 50, Appendix E & NUREG-0654, E. 1., 4., 5., 6., 7.

EFFECT: The public would have heard the sirens, but would not have heard any message instructing evacuation of specific areas for over one-half hour.

23

RECOMMENDATION: Provide additional training to the EOC staff on the need for promptness in getting the message out to the public. Review procedures and ensure that they clearly indicate that notifications and message transmittal must be done in a timely manner. This criterion must be re-demonstrated at the next biennial Exercise.

ISSUE FOR CRITERION: 20-03-5.b.I-A-03 CONDITION: The second Alert and Notification sequence, with a new protective action decision, was reversed.

POSSIBLE CAUSE: The Duty Officer notified the radio station at 1239 to read the new message immediately. The sirens were to sound at 1245. The Duty Officer understanding was that the "information had to go out on the radio before the sirens sounded."

REFERENCE:

NUREG-0654, E 5,7; G3a; G4c EFFECT: Individuals would not be alerted to tune to their designated EBS station prior to the information being disseminated. This could lead to fever people being alerted or a delay in their receiving instructions.

RECOMMENDATION: Provide training to the Duty Officer or County Official(s) responsible for cariying out the Alert and Notification process.

CORRECTIVE ACTION DEMONSTRATED: The next two Alert and Notification sequences were correctly demonstrated by the Chairman of the Board of County Commissioners and the Duty Officer. The timing was that sirens were sounded first and then the EBS message would be broadcasted. Based on the above, this Area Requiring Corrective Action is closed.

ISSUE FOR CRITERION: 20-03-5.b.1-A-04 CONDITION: The media briefing did not provide complete or consistent information to the media. During the briefing, the EBS message was referenced but not provided to the media. In addition, the relocation areas were vaguely described and evacuation routes were not discussed. A telephone number for further information was mentioned but not provided.

POSSIBLE CAUSE: The briefing was pulled together quickly, it was apparent that the presenters had not coordinated their information, and the presenters did not have all the information needed.

REFERENCE:

NURBEG-0654, E 5,7; G3a; G4c EFFECT: Partial, inaccurate, and inconsistent information can result in confusion by the public.

24

RECOMMENDATION: Provide additional training in media briefings to all potential participants. Coordinate briefing information and verify all local information prior to the briefing.

c. AREAS REQUIRING CORRECTIVE ACTION: Criterion 5.b.1 ISSUE FOR CRITERION: 20-03-5.b.l-A-05 CONDITION: Kendall County officials were not prepared to hold an effective media briefing and to provide clear and accurate information.

POSSIBLE CAUSE: The County did not determine in advance the purpose and scope of the media briefing and the roles and responsibilities of each presenter. Adequate displays and supporting documentation in the form of media kits were not assembled in advance of the briefing.

REFERENCE:

NUREG-0654, G.4.c 27

EFFECT: The media were given inadequate, misleading and confusing information concerning the emergency response in Kendall County.

RECOMMENDATION: The Kendall County ESDA should receive media training including presenter roles and responsibilities; the purpose, scope, and content of county-level media briefings; and the appropriate content and use of media packets and displays to support each briefing. Presentations should address such areas as impacted populations (including transients, farmers, and school and day-care children who reside inside the EPZ but go to school outside the EPZ, and areas within Kendall County).

Media packets should contain copies of relevant news releases and/or EBS messages issued by the county. Displays should be used to show activities associated with their county.

CORRECTED ACTION DEMONSTRATED: Redemonstration of the media briefing began at about 1410 hours0.0163 days <br />0.392 hours <br />0.00233 weeks <br />5.36505e-4 months <br />. Participants included all of those present at the initial briefing and in addition the MEMA County Liaison. .

The briefing was clearly organized, and the presentations focused on issues relating to populations located in Kendall County. When queried by the mock-media about-matters going beyond the scope of the county, the media were referred to the JPIC. The impression given to the media was that county representatives understood their roles and responsibilities and provided clear, accurate and appropriate information in response to questions.

Media Kits were available at the beginning of the briefing and contained public information brochures for the Dresden NGS, Maps showing the 10-mile EPZ, emergency planning Sub-Areas, and other pertinent information, including telephone numbers for obtaining firther information.

APPENDIX 3 EXERCISE CRITIERA AND EXTENT-OF-PLAY AGREEMENT This appendix lists the exercise criteria which were scheduled for demonstration during the Dresden Nuclear Generating Station exercise on March 26, 2003, and described in the extent-of-play agreement approved by FEMA Region V on March 7,2003.

The exercise criteria, contained in FEMA-REP-IS, "Radiological Emergency Preparedness Exercise Evaluation Methodology," September 1991, represent a functional translation ofthe planning standards and evaluation criteria of NUREG-0654/FEMA-REP-l, Rev. 1, Criteriafor the PreparationandEvaluation ofRadiologicalEmergency Response PlansandPreparednessin Support ofNuclearPowerPlants,"November 1980.

Because the exercise criteria are intended for use at all nuclear power plant sites, and because of variations among offsite 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 criteria.

A. Exercise Criteria Listed below are the specific Radiological Emergency Preparedness criteria scheduled for demonstration during this exercise.

EVALUATION AREA 1: EMERGENCY OPERATIONS MANAGEMENT CRITERION L.al: OROs use effective procedures to alert, notify and mobilize emergency personnel and facilities in a timely manner.

CRITERION 1.c.1: Key personnel with leadership roles for the ORO provide direction and control to that part of the overall response effort for which they are responsible.

CRITERION 1.d.1: At least two communications systems are available, at least one operates properly, and communication links are established and maintained with appropriate locations. Communications capabilities are managed in support of emergency operations.

CRITERION 1.eA1: Equipment, maps, displays, dosimetry, potassium iodide (KI), and other supplies are sufficient to support emergency operations.

EVALUATION AREA 2: PROTECTIVE ACTION DECISION-MAKING CRITERION 2.a1: OROs use a decision-making process, considering relevant factors and appropriate coordination, to ensure that an exposure control system, including the use of KI, is in place for emergency workers including provisions to authorize radiation exposure in excess of administrative limits or protective action guides.

34

CRITERION 2.b.1: Appropriate protective action recommendations are based on available information on plant conditions, field monitoring data, and licensee and ORO dose projections, as well as knowledge of on-site and off-site environmental conditions.

CRITERION 2.b.2: A decision-making process involving consideration of appropriate factors and necessary coordination is used to make protective action decisions (PADs) for the general public (including the recommendation for the use of KI, if ORO policy).

CRITERION 2.c.1: Protective action decisions are made, as appropriate, for special population groups.

EVALUATION AREA 3: PROTECTIVE ACTION IMPLEMENTATION CRITERION 3.al: The OROs issue appropriate dosimetry and procedures, and manage radiological exposure to emergency workers in accordance with the plans and procedures. Emergency workers periodically and at the end of each mission read their dosimeters and record the readings on the appropriate exposure record or chart.

CRITERION 3.b.1: KI and appropriate instructions are available should a decision to recommend use of KI be made. Appropriate record keeping of the administration of KI for emergency workers and institutionalized individuals (not the general public) is maintained.

CRITERION 3.c.1: Protective action decisions are implemented for special populations other than schools within areas subject to protective actions.

CRITERION 3.c.2: OROs/School officials decide upon and implement protective actions for schools.

CRITERION 3.d.1: Appropriate traffic and access control is established. Accurate instructions are provided to traffic and access control personnel.

CRITERION 3.d.2: Impediments to evacuation are identified and resolved.

EVALAUTION AREA 4: FIELD MEASUREMENT AND ANALYSIS CRITERION 4.a.1: The field teams are equipped to perform field measurements of direct radiation exposure (cloud and ground shine) and to sample airborne radioiodine and particulates.

CRITERION 4.a.2: Field teams are managed to obtain sufficient information to help characterize the release and to control radiation exposure.

CRITERION 4.a.3: Ambient radiation measurements are made and recorded at appropriate locations, and radioiodine and particulate samples are collected. Teams will move to an appropriate low background location to determine whether any significant (as 35

specified in the plan and/orprocedures) amount of radioactivity has been collected on the sampling media.

CRITERION 4.b.1: The field teams demonstrate the capability to make appropriate measurements and to collect appropriate samples (e.g., food crops, milk, water, vegetation, and soil) to support adequate assessments and protective action decision-making.

CRITERION 4.c.1: The laboratory is capable of performing required radiological analyses to support protective action decisions.

EVALUATION AREA 5: EMERGENCY NOTIFICATION & PUBLIC INFORMATION CRITERION 5.al: Activities associated with primary alerting and notification of the public are completed in as timely manner following the initial decision by authorized offsite emergency officials to notify the public of an emergency situation. The initial instructional message to the public must include, as a minimum, the elements required by current FEMA REP guidance.

CRITERION 5.b.l: OROs provide accurate emergency information and instructions to the public and the news media in a timely manner.

EVALUATION AREA 6: SUPPORT OPERATION/FACILITIES CRITERION 6.a.1: The reception center/emergency worker facility has appropriate space, adequate resources, and trained personnel to provide monitoring, decontamination, and registration of evacuees and/or emergency workers.

CRITERION 6.b.1: The facility/ORO has adequate procedures and resources for the accomplishment of monitoring and decontamination of emergency worker equipment including vehicles.

CRITERION 6.c1: Managers of congregate care facilities demonstrate that the centers have resources to provide services and accommodations consistent with American Red Cross planning guidelines (found in MASS CARE-Preparedness Operations, ARC 3031).

Managers demonstrate the procedures to assure that evacuees have been monitored for contamination and have been decontaminated as appropriate prior to entering congregate care facilities.

36

B. Extent-of-Play Agreenment The extent-of-play agreement on the following pages was submitted by the State of Illinois and was approved by FEMA Region V, in preparation for the Dresden Nuclear Generating Station exercise on March 26, 2003. The extent-of-play agreement includes any significant modification or change in the level of demonstration of each exercise criterion listed in Subsection A of the appendix.

STATE OF ILLINOIS EXTENT-OF-PLAY AGREEMENT Criteria that can be re-demonstrated immediately for credit, at the discretion of the evaluator, include the following: 3.a., 3.d.1, 3.d.2, 6.a.l, 6.b.1, 6.c.1 and 6.d.1. Criteria that maybe re-demonstrated, as approved on a case-by-case basis by the Chairperson of the Regional Assistance Committee, include the following: 2.a.l, 2.b.1, 2.b.2, 5.a.1 and 5.b.l.

This criterion will not be demonstrated during this exercise.

EVALUATION AREA 4 - FIELD MEASUREMENT AND ANALYSIS This evaluation area does not apply to Kendall County.

EVALUATION AREA 5 - EMERGENCY NOTIFICATION AND PUBLIC INFORMATION Criterion 5.a.l: Activities associated with primary alerting and notification of the public are completed in a timely manner following the initial decision by authorized offsite emergency officials to notify the public of an emergency situation. The initial instructional message to the public must include as a minimum the elements required by current FEMA REP guidance.

Kendall County will demonstrate the capability to provide both an alert signal and an initial instructional message to populated areas throughout the 10-mile plume pathway EPZ in a timely manner after their decision to activate the alert and notification system to implement protective action recommendations (PAR).

This capability will be demonstrated through the simulated activation of the Dresden Station EPZ Prompt Notification System as defined in IPRA-Dresden. The Prompt Notification System (outdoor warning sirens) will not be activated during the exercise.

The ability to provide instructions to the public will be demonstrated through the simulated activation of the local radio station. The local radio station (WSPY) will be contacted during the first alert and notification sequence. An evaluator will be positioned at the radio station during the exercise to monitor the initial message.

Coordination between Kendall County, Grundy County and Will County will be demonstrated.

Criterion 5.a.2: [RESERVED]

Criterion 5.a.3: Activities associated with FEMA approved exception areas (where applicable) are completed within 45 minutes following the initial decision by authorized offsite emergency officials to notify the public of an emergency situation. Backup alert and notification of the public is completed within 45 minutes following the detection by the ORO of a failure of the primary alert and notification system.

This criterion does not apply to Kendall County.

Criterion 5.b.1: OROs provide accurate emergency information and instructions to the public and the news media in a timely manner.

Kendall County will demonstrate this criterion by using pre-scripted messages as indicated in IPRA-Dresden or ad hoc messages will be developed. Contact with the radio station will be simulated for each alert and notification sequence following the initial sequence.

The ability to provide information to the media will be demonstrated by Kendall County through briefings held at the Kendall County media briefing location. If real media are not present for the briefings, the controller and observers will serve as mock media.

Evaluators will not serve as mock media.

The ability to deal with rumors will be demonstrated by Kendall County through coordination between the County EOC and the JPIC. The Kendall County EOC Controller will inject exercise messages which will ensure the opportunity to demonstrate this criterion. County officials will investigate and address rumors. If appropriate, the rumors will be coordinated between State and County officials in the County EOC and the JPIC.

County emergency broadcast messages and news releases, if issued, will be faxed to the JPIC.
