1. ExecutiV Sd'ummary On June 3, 2009, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS)/Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), Region VII, conducted an exercise in the plume emergency planning zone (EPZ) around the Wolf Creek Nuclear Generating Station. In addition, out-of-sequence drills were conducted on May 20, 2009, and June 2, 2009.

The purpose of the exercise and drills was to assess the level of State and local preparedness in responding to a radiological emergency. These exercises and drills were held in accordance with FEMA's policies and guidance concerning the exercise of State and local radiological emergency response plans and procedures.

The previous exercise at this site was conducted on November 6-7, 2007. The qualifying emergency preparedness exercise was conducted on November 7, 1984.

FEMA wishes to acknowledge the efforts of the many individuals who participated in this exercise. In the State of Kansas, the risk county of Coffey and the host county of Lyon participated along with the various organizations of the State government. The efforts of the utility should also be commended for their work on the scenario development and exercise preparation.

Protecting the public health and safety is the full-time job of some of the exercise participants and an additionally 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.

The State and local organizations demonstrated knowledge of their emergency response plans and procedures and adequately implemented them. There were no Deficiencies, and no Areas Requiring Corrective Action (ARCAs) identified as a result of this exercise. Planning issues that were identified during the exercise will be forwarded under a separate correspondence. There were no Areas Requiring Corrective Action from the previous Exercise in'2007.

The final protective action decision (PAD) during the emergency phase was an evacuation of sub zones CTR, CCL, JRR, S-1, S-2, SW-1, and SW-2. This included Burlington Township, and the City of Burlington, the South quarter of Hampden Township, the Northeast and Northwest sides of Neosho Township, John Redmond 1

Reservoir, and Coffey County Lake. Approximately 3,082 resdents in Kansas were affected by the evacuation.

2. Introduction On December 7, 1979, the President directed FEMA to assume lead resnonsibility 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 preparednessfor co.mmercial nuclear power plants. This approval is~continqent, 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, radiological emergency.response plans (IER) and procedures develored by State.

and local governments.

• Determining whether such-plans and procedures can be.iimplemented on the basis. of evaluation of exercises-of the plans and orpocedures 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 (Federal Register, Vol. 58, No7 176, September.14, 1993).;,.

Coordinating the activities of the following federal agencies with.,responsibilities,in the radiological emergency planning process:

- U.S. Department of Commerce

- U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission

- U.S.,Environrmenta! Protection Agency

- U. S. Department of Energy

3. Exercise Overview Contained in this; section are data,and. basic, information relevant to.the June 3,.2009;,:,..

Wolf Creek Nucl'ear Generating Station Exercise-This chapter of the exercise report.

includes a.description of the plumes. EPZ,, alisting of-all participating jurisdictions and functional entities that;were& evaluated,.and a tabular presentation of the time of the.:.

actual occurrence, of key exercise events and activities.

3.1. EPZ Description The Wolf Creek Nuclear Generating Station is located in the State of Kansas in Coffey County, about four miles northeast of Burlington, Kansas. The topography of the 10-mile or plume EPZ is relatively flat. The plume EPZ is divided into twenty-two sub zones containing a total population of 6,099 (2000 Census), all within Coffey County, Kansas.

With the exception of Burlington (population 2,790) and three other population clusters, the population density of the effective 10-mile EPZ is quite low - approximately 13 persons per square mile. Most of the seasonal or daily shifts in population are associated with recreational areas around John Redmond Reservoir and Coffey County Lake. Approximately 70% of the annual visitors to the John Redmond Reservoir and Coffey County Lake come to the area during the summer months. Sparsely populated farmland comprises the majority of the effective 10-mile EPZ. Other than the Wolf Creek Nuclear Generating Station, there are not any large industries in the area.

3.2. Exercise Participants Agencies and organizations of the following jurisdictions participated in the Wolf Creek Generating Station exercise:

4.2. Status of Jurisdictions Evaiuated 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 criteria 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 (ARCA) - Listing of the demonstrated exercise Criteria under which one or more ARCAs were assessed during the current exercise.

Included is a description of ARCA(s) assessed during this exercise and the recommended corrective action(s) to be demonstrated before or during the next biennial exercise.

Not Demonstrated - Listing of exercise Criteria that were not demonstrated as scheduled during this exercise and the reason they were not demonstrated.

Prior ARCAs - Resolved - Description of ARCA(s) assessed during previous exercises that were resolved in this exercise and the corrective actions demonstrated.

Prior ARCAs - Unresolved - Description of ARCA(s) assessed during prior exercises that were not resolved in this exercise. Included is the reason the ARCA(s) remain 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 that are discussed in this report.

A Deficiency is defined by FEMA 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 14

appropriate protective measures can be taken in the event of.a..radio%-!gicai ýemargency to protect the health and safety of the public living-in,the vvicinity'of a:n,*.ear power plant."

An ARCA is defined by FEMA 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 AFCAs). This system is used to. achieve consistency in n umbering exercise issues between 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 (-).

Y SEQUENCE OF EVENTS'..

The scenario begins with the plant being shutdown. An inadvertent 'A' train Safety Injection (SI) signal generates an SSPS signal to trip the reactor, but the reactor does not trip on the auto trip signal. Efforts to trip the reactor from the Main Control Board (MCB) in the Control Room are successful. The 'A' emergency diesel generator will start, but fail to flash and connect to the NB bus on the SI initiation. This ATWT event meets the conditions.for an Alert classification with no PARs.

At the time of the ATWT, the pressure transient resulted in the feed water line to SG 'A' to crack and start leaking inside the CTMT. Once feed water is isolated to the SG, it will start to boil dry, causing CTMT pressure and humidity to increase. Several fuel assemblies are also affected and indications of fuel element failure begin to show with several assembly temperatures slowly increasing and three reaching _>1400 degrees.

The TSC should be activated within 30 minutes of the declaration of the Alert and should provide any assistance with plant monitoring as requested from the Control Room. The EOF should be activated within 90 minutes of the declaration of the Alert and will provide for off-site support as needed.
