Respiratory protective equipment and radiological protective clothing should be inspected for proper function before use in the field and may need to be obtained from RP if not part of field team equipment inventory.

Radiological protective clothing should only be worn at the direction of the TSC Radiation Controls Coordinator or EOF Environmental Coordinator.

The MSA combination cartridge for use in both airborne radioactive iodine and particulate atmospheres has a protection factor of 100 for particulates and 1 for radioiodine. The lack of an approved protection factor for iodine should not prevent the use of these cartridges in atmospheres when both radioactive airborne particulates and iodines exist.

1.

PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT AND PERSONNEL DOSIMETRY 1.1 DIRECT each Field Monitoring Team member to obtain:

1. TLD

2. Self-reading dosimeters within the following ranges:

MAROG MWROG 0-1500 mR range 0-200 mR range 0-5 R range 0-1 R range 0-1 OR range OR Electronic dosimeter capable of same coverage NOTE:

Dosimetry, other than TLDs, can be expected to under-report the actual dose (TEDE) received by a factor of 2 when immersed in a noble gas plume.

EP-LG-1 12-500 Revision 0 Page 13 of 29 ATTACHMENT 2 PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT AND PERSONNEL DOSIMETRY Page 2 of 2 1.2 EVALUATE the magnitude and type of any possible release in order to determine protective equipment use.

1.2.1 Respiratory Protection:

CAUTION Respirators should be used only as a precautionary measure until air samples have been collected and analyzed, when a high dose field is encountered. The long-term use of a full-face respiratory or SCBA is NOT'recommended due to the safety hazard involved in operating vehicle.

1. EVALUATE the use of respiratory protection as it affects the TEDE of Field Monitoring Team personnel.

2. DETERMINE whether affected personnel are respirator qualified.

3. USE a full-face respirator only when it is beneficial to TEDE AND the sufficient priority exists for sample collection.

1.2.2 Protective Clothing:

1.

ASSESS the likelihood of particulates in the release.

2.

ASSIGN a full set of protective clothing when particulates or residual contamination is expected.

3.

USE EP-AA-1 13, Attachment 5, to assess the need for thyroid blocking agents.

EP-LG-1 12-500 Revision 0 Page 14 of 29 ATTACHMENT 3 FIELD MONITORING TEAM DATA SHEET Page 1 of 1 NOTE:

Section 1, General Sampling Guidance Section 2, Water Sampling Section 3, Soil Sampling Section 4, Vegetation Sampling Section 5, Snow Sampling

1.

GENERAL SAMPLING GUIDANCE 1.1 In general air samples and dose rates are used when tracking the plume. The snow, water, vegetation and soil samples will be taken after the plume has stopped.

1.2 If milk samples are requested by offsite agencies, then COLLECT a minimum of one gallon.

1.3 TREAT samples with survey results of greater than or equal to 0.5 mR/h, or a count rate of 2500 cpm measured on a GM-type instrument as radioactive material" for transportation and shipping, per 49 CFR 173.421 (a)(2). Such samples require the completion of radioactive material shipping documents.

1.4 TAKE all samples to, or as near as possible, to the designated monitoring locations. If samples are taken at locations other than those points, report the monitoring location and record it in the 'comments' section on the Environmental Assessment Log.

1.5 TAKE samples from an undisturbed area, which is suspected to be contaminated and obtain a representative sample.

1.6 LABEL each container with the following:

team name, sample type, chronological sample number, date, time, and monitoring location,

• for air samples; initial air sampling flow rate, final air sampling flow rate, initial running time, final running time, total cubic feet (usually 30 cubic feet),

• sample results, and other information pertinent to analysis.

1.7 RECORD data on the Environmental Assessment Log (Attachment 3), or similar log

2.

WATER SAMPLING 2.1 Stream. River or Lake water sampling (sample size: 1 gallon) 2.1.1 RINSE collection container several times before collecting water if container was used previously.

2.1.2 OBTAIN a sample that is representative of the water source without disturbing the sediment.

2.1.3 If sampling is to be performed from a bridge, LOWER the sampling pail on a rope into the stream on the upstream side of the bridge. Permit the pail to sink beneath the surface and RETRIEVE the pail full of water.

2.1.4 TRANSFER the sample into the sample container and CLOSE tightly. Wipe the outside of the container and PLACE a completed label on the container. PLACE the labeled sample container in a clean plastic bag and seal tightly.

2.2 Well water samples (normal sample size: 1 gallon) 2.2.1 PURGE the well or fountain by allowing the water to flow for at least two minutes to assure that a representative sample is collected.

2.2.2 FILL the plastic sample container and CLOSE tightly. WIPE the outside of the container and PLACE a completed label on the container. PLACE the labeled sample container in a clean plastic bag and seal tightly.

EP-LG-1 12-500 Revision 0 Page 18 of 29 ATTACHMENT 5 ENVIRONMENTAL SAMPLE COLLECTION (MID-WEST ROG)

Page 3 of 4

3.

SOIL SAMPLES 3.1 Soil samples should be free of vegetation and/or rocks and obtained from a small, flat area. Permanent pastures are the preferred sampling sites if available.

Avoid obtaining soil samples from freshly plowed fields. (Normal sample size:

quantity sufficient to fill 1 quart plastic cube container) REPORT back if soil is unsuitable.

3.1.1 From a one-foot square area. SCRAPE soil from within the square, not exceeding a depth of one inch, and store in the sample container.

NOTE: Maximize collection of the upper most soil area.

3.1.2 IDENTIFY sampling area with sample point flag or fluorescent spray paint.

Information on the exact location, nature of terrain, vegetation cover, nearby trees, etc., should also be noted.

3.1.3 FILL the plastic container, CLOSE, and PLACE a completed label on the container. PLACE the labeled sample container in a clean plastic bag and SEAL tightly.

4.

VEGETATION SAMPLES 4.1 COLLECT the leafy portion of pasture-type grass only. Weeds and other types of vegetation are discouraged. (sample size: quantity sufficient to fill 1 quart plastic cube container, packed tightly, or other appropriate size container)

NOTE:

New vegetation growth is desirable; do not sample dried grass.

4.1.1 NOTIFY Environmental Coordinator if vegetation is limited.

4.1.2 IDENTIFY sampling area with sample point flag or fluorescent spray paint.

4.1.3 FILL the plastic container, CLOSE, and PLACE a completed label on the container. PLACE the labeled sample container in a clean plastic bag and SEAL tightly.

5.

SNOW SAMPLES NOTE:

Snow Sampling is dependent on weather conditions and proper site selection. Areas where the wind has swept away snow cover, drifting has occurred; or the snow has been disturbed by outside sources (plowing, snow mobiles, etc.) should be avoided.

5.1 LINE the bucket with a plastic bag. If a bucket is unavailable, a representative sample may be obtained by filling a 1 quart container12 times and placing the sample in a plastic bag.

NOTE:

Sample volume should exceed 1 liter of melted snow or approximately 3 gallons of packed snow.

5.2 PACK lined bucket with snow taken from selected area:

1. If a crust layer remains from an earlier snow, then COLLECT snow from surface to crust layer.

2. If snow has fallen after release, then COLLECT crust layer and loose snow next to crust layer, sweeping away new fallen snow.

3. If unsure of the time it snowed, then COLLECT snow closest to ground level.

5.3 SEAL sample bag securely, PLACE sample inside another plastic bag and SEAL tightly.

5.4 MEASURE area sampled in square feet and depth in inches.

5.5 IDENTIFY sampling area with sample point flag or fluorescent spray paint.

5.6 PLACE a completed label on double bagged sample and PLACE in a (third) clean plastic bag; SEAL tightly for storage.

5.7 RECORD any unusual features or terrain information on the back of the Environmental Assessment Log (Attachment 3).

ENVIRONS GROUP TRANSFER OR SHIPMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL RADIOLOGICAL SAMPLES TO RADIOANALYTICAL LABORATORIES Page 1 of 4 lMWROG Only l

This Attachment describes the methods to be used to transfer or ship environmental samples to a counting laboratory. Environmental samples shall be collected and packaged as described in EP-AA-1 12-500, Attachment 5, if the conversion factors supplied in this procedure are to be used when determining shipping requirements.

Personnel transporting environmental samples should have completed an Exelon Nuclear equivalent radiation worker training program.

Ensure samples are appropriately labeled with Field Monitoring Team Identification, sample volume, sample location, and sample date and time.

Personnel handling environmental sampling shall wear specified dosimetry and protective clothing, as appropriate.

Caution should be exercised when handling environmental samples to limit the spread of contamination and maintain personnel exposure ALARA.

Consult with appropriate Federal Regulatory Agencies and offsite Agencies to determine whether the steps of this procedure apply, in situations where high contamination are found in the environment, consider requesting exemptions from shipping requirements in order to expedite critical analyses.

Dose rate measurements of the sample containers should be performed in an area where background is less than 100 cpm on a GM instrument (<0.1 mR/hr).

Sample measurements exhibiting an exposure level of greater than 0.5 mR/hr when using an ion chamber device or 2,500 cpm on a GM instrument shall be classified as radioactive material for shipment purposes. All calculations for shipping assume the environmental mix is all radioactive iodines.

EP-LG-1 12-500 Revision 0 Page 26 of 29 ATTACHMENT 8 SATELLITE TELEPHONE OPERATIONS (Mid-West ROG)

Page 1 of 2 Mid-West ROG The satellite phone system provides phone communication and two-way radio coverage. This system provides clarity and security to assure private communications through an all-digital network.

Each satellite phone includes a handset for phone conversations and a push-to-talk (PTT) microphone for radio communications. All Field Survey Team communicators will use the PTT Powering On Unit:

1.

PRESS and HOLD the PWR key on either PTT or telephone handset to power on the Mobile Terminal (MT).

NOTE:

If you power on the unit using the telephone handset, the PTT display will read SLEEP. To activate PTT, PRESS and HOLD any key on the PTT keypad (except PWR or BAR).

2.

If using a land mobile unit, remain stationary until the satellite has been acquired and the service is ready to use.

3.

You will see NO SVC in the upper right comer of the PTT display. Within 20 seconds to one minute, your MT should be locked on the satellite; NO SVC will disappear from the display and you will be ready to use the service. If the NO SVC display does not disappear after 1 minute, push the

• key and wait 20 seconds. Repeat, if necessary.

EP-LG-1 12-500 Revision 0 Page 27 of 29 ATTACHMENT 8 SATELLITE TELEPHONE OPERATIONS (Mid-West ROG)

Page 2 of 2 Mid-West ROG Initiating a Radio Call:

1.

PRESS and HOLD the PTT. When the display reads SELFyou will hear a two-tone beep. You can begin talking, holding mic approximately two inches from your mouth.

NOTE:

WAIT until SELF is displayed before speaking to avoid having your voice cut off.

2.

RELEASE the PTT when finished speaking and the display will change to VACANT, accompanied by a single beep. Someone can now respond to you.

NOTE:

VACANT means that the talk group is still active and anyone can now become the speaker.

When someone in the talk group responds, you will see their unique four-digit Directory Number (DN) appear on the PTT display. When they stop talking, the DN will be replaced by VACANT.

3.

You can respond to a communication as soon as you see VACANTon your display. To respond, simply PRESS and HOLD the PTT. When SELF is displayed, you may begin speaking. Release PTT when finished speaking.

NOTE:

A talk group will remain in the VACANTstate for 10 seconds if another user does not PTT. After 10 seconds in the VACANTstate the call will be terminated.

When IDLE is displayed it means the talk group has stopped. You must follow the steps for initiating a radio call to re-establish communications on the talk group.

The cue that the talk group is available - VACANT-is always accompanied by a single beep. The cue that you may speak - SELF-is always accompanied by a two-tone beep. Once users become accustomed to the service they can navigate usage through audio tones without relying on the PTT display.

EP-LG-1 12-500 Revision 0 Page 28 of 29 ATTACHMENT 9 Field Monitoring Team Radio Operating Guidelines (TMI Only)

Page 1 of 2 TMI Station This attachment provides guidance on the operation of the station radio frequency to support communications with field monitoring team personnel.

A.

TURN ON the portable radio by rotating the upower on-off volume" knob clockwise.

The radio will perform a power up self test" and then display":

Its unit number (e.g., 'TMI P 1" is portable radio #1), and Either "EARS" or UCC SCAN" depending on whether the radio is receiving the system Control Channel signal (i.e., if "CC SCAN" appears, the radio is out of range or in a bad location).

B.

To Transmit:

1. VERIFY that EARS' is displayed on the front of the radio and then PRESS the Push-To-Talk (PPT) button (elongated button on the left side of the radio).

2. When a short, medium pitch beep is heard, BEGIN speaking.

If a high pitch beep is heard when the PPT button is pressed, then the system is temporarily busy. NO NOT release the PPT button, but rather continue pressing it and wait for the short medium pitch beep before starting to speak. The delay should typically be not more than a few seconds.

3. When speaking, HOLD the radio approximately 3 inches from the mouth and SPEAK in a normal voice.

C.

Receiving:

When a call is being received, the calling station's identification is displayed in the upper line of the radio's display.

EP-LG-1 12-500 Revision 0 Page 29 of 29 ATTACHMENT 9 Field Monitoring Team Radio Operating Guidelines (TMI Only)

Page 2 of 2 D.

System Status Beeps:

The radio will indicate system status by emitting any of seceral beeps:

A short medium pitch beep indicates that the radio has begun to transmit and the user may begin to speak.

A high pitch beep indicates that all system channels are busy and the radio is waiting for the next available channel. The-user should continue pressing the PPT button until a short iedium itch beep is heard and then begin speaking.

If five short high pitch beeps are heard while transmitting, this indicates that the radio is approaching its 60-second transmission length limit.

Unless the radio is unkeyed before the long low pitch is heard, the radio will stop transmitting and information will be missed. Long transmissions should be broken into several shorter transmissions to avoid this.

A low pitch beep simultaneous with the appearance of a battery icon in the lower right comer of the display indicates that the battery voltage is low and the battery should be charged.

E.

To Replace the Battery Pack:

1. TURN OFF the radio.

2. DEPRESS the recessed button beside the belt clip on the rear of the radio and SLIDE the battery toward the bottom of the radio.

3. LIFT the battery up from the radio.

4. [To install a fresh battery pack] ALIGN the tabs on the battery with the slots on the radio and SLIDE the battery pack toward the top of the radio until it clicks.

F.

The channel selector knob and the buttons on the front panel of the radio serve no function and should not be manipulated.
