After Action Report/Improvement Plan Comanche Peak Nuclear Power Plant

4. The controllers should allow free-play. However, free-play will be stopped under the following conditions:
a. if the action taken would prevent a drill evaluation criterion from being met or is outside the scope of the drill.
b. if the actions are judged to be unsafe or leading to violations of the law.
c. if the actions would degrade systems or equipment, or degrade response to a real emergency.
5. If an actual emergency occurs, the drill will be terminated.
6. All radio and telephone communications will begin and end with THIS IS A DRILL.
7. All signs and postings at the hospital should be marked either FOR TRAINING USE ONLY or DRILL IN PROGRESS.

4.0 Extent of Play These guidelines define the extent of play required to meet an objective and identify planned simulations.

Criterion 1.e.1: Equipment, maps, displays, dosimetery, potassium iodide (KI) and other supplies are sufficient to support emergency operations. (NUREG-0654, H.,

J.10.a.b.e.f. j.k., 11, K.3.a.)

KI will not be carried on the ambulance and is not required at the hospital. The KI for ambulances is stored at the Hood County EOC and would be distributed at that point in the event of the recommendation to do so by the Texas Department of State Health Services (DSHS).

Criterion 3.a.1: The OROs issue appropriate dosimetery 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.

After Action Report/Improvement Plan Comanche Peak Nuclear Power Plant The Granbury/Hood County EMS ambulance with driver and EMT or paramedic, two (2) Radiation Protection Technicians (RP Techs) from CPNPP, and the contaminated patient will pre-stage at Buddy Stewart Park (the old soccer fields) in Cleburne.

All decontamination will be demonstrated to the extent necessary to satisfy evaluator concerns. All medical procedures will be simulated except for decontamination of wounds and or abrasions. The Controller will use the decontamination chart and written guidance to guide the decontamination processes.

All injury and contamination levels will be via controller verbal inject from the Injury Map for Medical Controllers (Attachment 4a - Anatomical Charts).

Free play of this activity is not permitted.

5.0 Participants This drill will require the participation of the following agencies:

Texas Health - Cleburne Emergency Room Staff Texas Health - Cleburne Support Staff as needed Granbury/Hood County EMS Ambulance Personnel Texas Department of State Health Services - Radiation Control Program (DSHS-RCP), Medical Facility Liaison Two (2) Radiation Protection Technicians (RP Techs) from CPNPP 6.0 Controller and Role Players A minimum of four (4) controllers will be required for this drill.

One (1) role player victim will be required for this drill 7.0 Initial Conditions While taking a Reactor Coolant System (RCS) sample in a 500 ml container a Chemistry Tech who is under continuing treatment for Diabetes suffers an acute episode which attempting to cap the sample. The Tech becomes disoriented, stumbles, drops the un-capped RCS sample, and then attempts to hold onto the RCS Sample Sink but slips in the spilled liquid. The tech falls, striking her head on the Plexiglas shield, cutting her forehead above the right eyebrow, and breaking the shield. While falling to the floor the Tech looses consciousness due to the combination of the injury and a diabetic coma. During the fall the Tech catches her right upper arm on the broken shield lacerating her arm. The Tech falls into a puddle of the spilled sample striking her head on the concrete floor and becomes contaminated. The Tech was alone and she is unconscious on the floor for approximately 5 minutes before being discovered by another Technician entering the sample area. The Tech is found unconscious, lying on her back with blood coming from a laceration to their head and a pool of blood near their upper right 18arm.

Unclassified Radiological Emergency Preparedness Program (REP)

After Action Report/Improvement Plan Comanche Peak Nuclear Power Plant 8.0 Narrative Summary The CPNPP ambulance is found to have a flat tire. Therefore, Granbury/Hood County EMS is contacted. The injured Tech is evaluated by CPNPP Chemistry Technicians trained in First Aid. They know the history of the injured technician having diabetes and that this particular technician had earlier stated that she had not eaten breakfast due to sleeping past her alarm. CPNPP Radiation Protection (RP) has been notified and confirms that the patient is contaminated with low level gamma contamination. Two (2)

RP Technicians are notified to prepare for one (1) RP Tech (1) to be transported with the ambulance and the second RP Tech (2) to be immediately dispatched to the hospital. The Granbury/Hood County EMS ambulance arrives and the patient is evaluated and loaded for transport. The site personnel provide known information to the ambulance paramedics upon their arrival onsite. The patient is loaded onto the ambulance while still unconscious. Prior to departure from the Protected Area (PA) the ambulance crew calls the Lake Granbury Medical Center (LGMC) and finds out that the ER is blocked out with a multi-car accident. The ambulance personnel then contact Texas Health - Cleburne and notify them of the contaminated patient with head and arm lacerations. The injured Chemistry Tech regains consciousness after initial treatment with an IV bolus of D50, and responds to the EMTs questions. The Tech complains of head and neck pain and injury to her arm. The patient is now conscious and is complaining about her injuries and suspects that they are contaminated due to the presence of the RP Tech in the ambulance.

Texas Health - Cleburne activates their Radiation Emergency Area (REA). According to Texas Health - Cleburne and CPNPP procedures a Radiation Protection Technician (RP Tech) will be dispatched to the hospital ahead of the ambulance while another RP Tech will accompany the injured/contaminated patient in the ambulance.
