(b) Discuss the dispatch of a Personnel Monitoring Team to prepare the Assembly Area prior to a Protected Area evacuation with the Onsite Radiological Supervisor (see EP-IP-231, "Onsite Radiation Protection", for specific guidance) and the Logistics Supervisor (see EP-IP-410, uEvacuation/Assembly'l for specific guidance).
(c) Identify areas requiring radiological controls and areas containing potential radiological hazards.
(d) Direct the Radiation Lab & Monitoring Team Coordinator or another radiation protection qualified individual to perform habitability surveys. Caution all personnel in the facility against eating or drinking until surveys are completed as Ki conditions warrant.
(e) Consider issuing SlDs to facility personnel or placing several SiDs throughout occupied areas of the facilities if radiological conditions warrant.
[3] Direct the Dose Assessment Engineers to:
(a) Perform dose assessment and dose projection calculations in accordance with EP-IP-300, "Offsite Dose Assessment." Develop any associated PARs and conduct bounding calculations in accordance with EP-IP-400, "Protective Action Recommendations. "
(b) Re-evaluate Protective Action Recommendations and bounding calculations whenever significant changes occur in meteorological conditions, release rates, or anticipated changes in plant status (for example, extent of expected fuel damage).
(c) Periodically compare PNPS dose projections to those computed by commonwealth and NRC dose assessment personnel.
(d) Trend radiological release and meteorological data to aid in determination of environmental sample locations once the plume has dissipated.

[4] Direct the Radiation Lab & Monitoring Team Coordinator to:
(a) Assemble, brief, and control the dispatch of the RMTs in accordance with Attachment 1.
(b) Set-up contamination controls at the RMT/environmental sample entry point (delivery door at the rear of the EOF). The control point need not be completely placed in service until needed.
(c) Prepare for and conduct the isotopic analysis of RMT air samples.
(d) Coordinate collection, storage, and subsequent transport of samples. Ensure that environmental samples are split into two equal portions for analysis at independent locations.
(e) Request assistance from offsite labs if needed.
[5] Assign and direct a staff member to man the HPN Line and:
(a) Periodically (approximately every 30 minutes) complete a Radiological Information Form (Attachment 2).
(b) Provide the NRC with radiological information associated with the emergency.
(c) Provide the EOF Communications staff with completed Radiological Information Forms.
[6] In coordination with the Onsite Radiological Supervisor and the Radiation Lab & Monitoring Team Coordinator, assess staffing of Radiation Protection personnel assigned to the EOF. If additional personnel are necessary, consider the following:
(a) If personnel are standing by on-site (such as in an Alert), obtain support from normal muster, shop or office locations.
(b) If personnel have been evacuated to an Assembly Area, coordinate with the Logistics Supervisor to obtain additional support.
[7] Periodically confer with the following individuals to review actions being implemented, status of the situation, and progress toward resolution, and to ensure a coordinated response:
(a) Emergency Offsite Manager (b) Dose Assessment Engineers (c) State Dose Assessor (d) HPN Communicator EP-IP-251 Rev. 6 Page 7 of 14
(e) Radiation Lab & Monitoring Team Coordinator (f) EOF Operations Advisor
[8] Continuously monitor offsite radiological conditions and ensure that the Emergency Offsite Manager remains apprised of specific circumstances which impact the emergency classification and protective actions. Provide updates at least every 30 minutes.
6.3 DEACTIVATION Direct the Radiation Lab & Monitoring Team Coordinator to:
[1] Ensure that RMT personnel properly restore all equipment.
[2] Ensure that any communication problems are identified to the Offsite Radiological Supervisor.
[3] Arrange for proper disposition of all radioactive samples or waste.

ATTACHMENT I Sheet 1 of 2 RADIOLOGICAL MONITORING TEAM DISPATCH AND CONTROL GUIDELINES General Guidelines
- 1. Provide a list of names of individuals assigned as RMTs to the Onsite Radiological Supervisor to obtain current radiological exposure histories.
- 2. Direct RMTs to conduct inventories and equipment checks and obtain a briefing before leaving the facility.
- 3. Deposition surveys and environmental samples (soil, water, vegetation, etc.) are usually taken following plume passage. Efforts to determine the magnitude of any release and to define/track the plume will take priority over ingestion sampling activities.
- 4. Plume tracking can usually be performed by conducting a continuous survey while traveling across the plume. Boundary and centerline values are noted and reported.
- 5. Key locations for plume surveys are at the site boundary, 2 miles, 5 miles, and 10 miles for purposes of dose assessment and protective action recommendations.
- 6. While respiratory protection is available for RMTs, the conditions under which they would need to be used should be avoided if at all possible. For a severe release, consider defining the outer boundaries of the plume without passing though centerline in areas of high dose projections.
- 7. Air sample 1-131 concentration can be determined both in the field and at the EOF.
Other halogen isotopes are determined by estimation or laboratory analyses.
Estimations of other isotopes are developed using design basis assumptions for damage type and reduction factors and should be used only in the absence of actual analysis data. For any release involving a significant halogen or particulate component, emphasis should be placed on obtaining detailed sample results as soon as possible.
- 8. Maintain a status map and log documenting:
a) Locations of sample/survey points.
b) Instrument readings.
c) Type and number of samples.
d) Location of dispatched field teams.
- 9. Prior to a release, coordinate with offsite agencies (if present) to determine dispatch locations for the RMTs (areas most likely to be impacted should a release occur).
EP-IP-251 Rev. 6 Page 9 of 14
ATTACHMENT I Sheet 2 of 2 RADIOLOGICAL MONITORING TEAM DISPATCH AND CONTROL GUIDELINES (Cont.)
- 10. During a release:
a) Coordinate with offsite agencies (if present) to determine dispatch locations for the RMTs (areas most likely to be impacted during the release).
b) Direct RMTs to define the plume in terms of centerline and boundaries.
c) Direct the collection of air samples, ensuring that RMT members do not spend an inordinate amount of time in the plume.
- 11. Following a release:
a) Coordinate with offsite agencies (if present) to determine dispatch locations for the RMTs (areas most likely impacted by the release).
NOTE Massachusetts Nuclear Incident Advisory Team (NIAT) Handbook Section D.5, "Environmental and Ingestion Pathway Sample Collection", contains the sampling protocol and guidance to be used for the coordination and collection of postplume samples (deposition surveys and environmental samples of soil, water, and vegetation).
b) Direct the conduct of deposition surveys and the collection of environmental samples by the RMTs.
Briefing Guidelines
- 1. Present any anticipated plant conditions, emergency conditions, and current and anticipated meteorology.
- 2. Type of data expected to be gathered and current priorities (surveys, air samples, environmental samples, etc.)
- 3. Use of available maps, preferred travel routes to sample/survey locations, and plume tracking strategies.
- 4. Performance of equipment and communications check prior to leaving the EOF parking lot. Action to be taken for a total loss of communications.
- 5. Disposition of sample media; that is, what to do with samples when and if they are requested.
- 6. Maximum dose and dose rates anticipated and allowed. Necessity of keeping ALARA concepts in mind during the surveys.
- 7. Safety precautions pertaining to both the task'and to personnel and any special instructions applicable to the situation.
