SUMMARY

OF EXERCISE EVALUATIONS...........................................16 iv

I. Executive Summary The Federal Emergency Management Agency, Region II evaluated an exercise on December 3, 2008 and related out of sequence activities in the plume exposure pathway emergency planning zone (EPZ) around the Indian Point Energy Center (IPEC). The purpose of the exercise and out of sequence activities was to assess the level of State and local preparedness in responding to a radiological emergency. The exercise and out of sequence activities were held in accordance with FEMA's policies and guidance concerning the exercise of State and local radiological emergency response plans (RERP) and procedures.

The most recent previous exercise at this site was conducted on December 3, 2008.

The qualifying emergency preparedness exercise was conducted on March 3, 1982.

FEMA wishes to acknowledge the efforts of the many individuals in New York State; Westchester, Rockland, Orange, and Putnam Counties; and Bergen County, New Jersey who participated in this exercise.

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. The cooperation and teamwork of all participants were evident during this exercise.

This report contains the draft evaluation of the biennial exercise and of the following out-of-sequence activities in Orange, Putnam, Rockland and Westchester counties:

Reception Centers; Congregate Care Centers; Emergency Worker Personnel Monitoring Centers; General and Special Population Bus Companies; School Bus Companies; Traffic Control Points; School Interviews and Medical Drills.

The State and local organizations, except where noted in this report, satisfactorily demonstrated knowledge of their emergency response plans and procedures and adequately implemented them. There were no Deficiencies and nine Areas Requiring Corrective Actions (ARCAs) were identified. Two ARCA's have been resolved.

Six of the eight ARCAs from the previous 2006 exercise were corrected.

Therefore there are eleven ARCAs remaining.

II. Introduction On December 7, 1979, the President directed FEMA to assume the lead responsibility for all offsite nuclear planning and response. FEMAs activities are conducted pursuant to 44 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Parts 350, 351, and 352. These regulations are a key element in the 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 government participation in joint exercises with licensees.

FEMAs 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 observation and 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 the following 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 2

- U.S. Department of Agriculture,

- U.S. Department of Transportation

- U.S. Department of Health and Human Services,

- U.S. Department of the Interior,

- U.S. Food and Drug Administration, and

- US Department of Defense Representatives of these agencies serve on the FEMA Region II Regional Assistance Committee (RAC), which is chaired by FEMA.

Formal submission of the RERPs for the IPEC to FEMA Region II by the State of New York and involved local jurisdictions occurred on October 10, 1991. Formal approval of the RERP was granted by FEMA on May 3, 1996, under 44 CFR 350.

A full-scale REP exercise was evaluated on December 3, 2008 to assess the capabilities of State and local emergency preparedness organizations in implementing their RERPs and procedures to protect the public health and safety during a radiological emergency at the IPEC. 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 DHS New York Field Office Branch Chief and RAC Chairperson, and approved by the Acting Director of the Chemical and Nuclear Planning and Protection Division, Office of Infrastructure Protection, DHS.

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; and

• Radiological Emergency Preparedness: Exercise Evaluation Methodology, published in the Federal Register on September 12, 2001, and revised April 25, 2002.

II. Exercise Overview Contained in this section are data and basic information relevant to the December 3, 2008 exercise held to test the offsite emergency response capabilities in the area surrounding the IPEC. This section of the exercise report includes a description of the plume pathway EPZ, a listing of all participating jurisdictions and functional entities that 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 IPECs 10-mile plume pathway EPZ contains portions of four New York State counties: Orange, Putnam, Rockland, and Westchester.

The IPEC is located on the east bank of the Hudson River about 24 miles north of the New York City boundary line at Indian Point, Village of Buchanan in upper Westchester County, New York. The station is about 0.8 miles southwest of the city of Peekskill, 8.3 miles south of West Point, 1.5 miles northeast of the Lovett Generating Station site, 4.6 miles north of the Bowline Point Generating Station site, and 2.3 miles north of Montrose Point.

The IPEC is accessible by several roads in the Village of Buchanan. Broadway, a two-lane paved road, borders the site to the east and is the primary access road to the site.

The Village roads of Bleakley Avenue and First Street enter Broadway across from the eastern site boundary. Additionally, a paved road links the eastern boundary of the site to the plants.

There are no residences within the site boundary. In addition, there are no public highways or railroads that traverse the site area.

The IPEC is surrounded on almost all sides by high ground ranging from 600 to 1,000 feet above sea level. The site is on the east bank of the Hudson River which runs northeast to southwest at this point but turns sharply northwest approximately two miles northeast of the site.

5

The west bank of the Hudson is flanked by the steep, heavily wooded slopes of the Dunderberg Mountain and to then northwest (elevations1,086 feet and 1,257 feet respectively) and Buckberg Mountain to the west-southwest (elevation 793 feet). These peaks extend to the west by other names and gradually rise to slightly higher peaks.

The general orientation of this mass of high ground is northeast to southwest. One mile northwest of the site, Dunderberg Mountain bulges to the east; north of Dunderberg and the site, high ground reaching 800 feet forms the east bank of the Hudson as the river makes a sharp turn to the northwest. To the east of the site, peaks are generally lower than those to the north and west. The Spitzenberg and Blue Mountains average about 600 feet in height and there is a weak, poorly defined series of ridges that again run mainly in a north-northeast direction. The river south of the site makes another sharp bend to the southeast and then widens as it flows past Croton and Haverstraw.

The IPEC is approximately 239 acres in size and contains three pressurized water reactors: Unit 1 (615 MWt, 265 MWe, de-fueled), Unit 2 (2,758 MWt, 873 MWe), and Unit 3 (3,025 MWt, 965 MWe). Indian Point Unit 3 is adjacent to and south of Unit 1 and Unit 2 is to the north of Unit 1. The two operating units , #s 2 and 3, were designed by the Westinghouse Electric Corporation. Indian Point Unit 1 was decommissioned and defueled in 1974.

IPECs pressurized water nuclear power plants each contain a nuclear reactor and closed loops of pressurized water that remove the heat energy from the reactor core and transfer the energy to a secondary water system that generates steam. The steam, in turn, drives a turbine generator set which produces electric power.

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 objective demonstration status.

Met - Listing of the demonstrated exercise evaluation 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 evaluation 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 evaluation criteria under which one or more ARCAs were assessed during the current exercise or ARCA's 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 evaluation criteria which 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 which were resolved in this exercise and the corrective actions demonstrated.

Prior ARCAs - Unresolved - Description of ARCA's 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.

25

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 off site 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."

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 have adverse 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 Codes - A two-digit number corresponding to the Utility Billable Plant Site.

Exercise Year - The last two digits of the year the exercise was conducted.

Evaluation Area Criterion - A letter and number corresponding to the criteria in the FEMA REP Exercise Evaluation Methodology.

Issue Classification Identifier - (D = Deficiency, A = ARCA). Only Deficiencies and ARCAs are included in exercise reports.

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

b. AREAS REQUIRING CORRECTIVE ACTION: TWO ISSUE NO: 32-08-5.a.1-A-01 CONDITION: During the preparation of the third EAS message, there was confusion between Orange County and the State EOC. The OCEOC listed specific instructions and areas to be evacuated and announced in the EAS.

These areas are mentioned in OCs Evacuation Plans. The State EOC was more general in the writing of the EAS. For example, instead of writing Town of Cornwall East of Rt. 32 is to be evacuated the State EOC wrote Town of Cornwall is to be evacuated. This would have the effect of directing members of the of the public outside the 10-mile EPZ to evacuate.

The State mentioned there was an issue with their pre-scripted EAS messages.

The OCEOC advised the State EOC to review the county's Radiological Emergency Response Plans for specific localities and area descriptions in the Orange County portion of the 10-mile EPZ. The discussions between the OCEOC and the State to correct the EAS message delayed its release and also delayed the sounding of the sirens, possibly putting members of the public at risk.

30

POSSIBLE CAUSE: The State did not review the locations and boundary limits for all localities within the 10-mile EPZ for Orange Country prior to drafting EAS messages. They may not have the updated and correct pre-scripted EAS messages.

REFERENCE:

NUREG-0654, E.5.6.7.

EFFECT: If the State's original EAS message had been broadcast, some of the public outside the 10 - mile EPZ would have been been incorrectly advised to evacuate and incorrectly advised to take KI (which they do not have).

This could have led to general confusion as to who should evacuate and who should stay behind. The delay of the sirens while the text of the EAS message was corrected could have put people in the EPZ at risk.

RECOMMENDATION: The NY State Emergency Management Agency should work with Orange County personnel to be sure that the EPZ area information is accurate, and that pre-scripted EAS messages are clear.

SCHEDULE OF CORRECTIVE ACTIONS: The corrective action for this issue will be demonstrated at the next federally evaluated, biennial exercise.

ISSUE NO: 32-08-5.a.1-A-02 CONDITION: The Joint Information Centers web page on New York Alert posted two Information Alerts for the general public at 1222 and 1243.

In each case the counties and the specific localities evacuated were listed, with areas to be evacuated shown in bold-face type. However, unlike the other three counties, the Orange County list was divided into two sections.

Some areas were listed in the bolded section under Orange County.

Other towns/villages where listed in plain text in a paragraph format within the text of the document.

Example - in bolded text:

Orange County:

Bear Mountain State Park West Point Highlands 31

Example - in unbolded text/paragraph format:

Orange County orders additional evacuation of these areas; Village of Harriman East of the NYS Thruway, Village of Woodbury East of NYS Thruway If this had been an actual emergency, members of the public may not have seen the additional areas to be evacuated if they did not completely read, and understand the on-line bulletins.

POSSIBLE CAUSE: The JIC and NY Alert did not clearly list all areas to be evacuated in a single list.

REFERENCE:

NUREG-0654, E.5, 6, 7 EFFECT: If this had been an actual emergency, members of the public may not have seen the additional areas that were to be evacuated, but which were not presented in boldface type in the Information Alert message posted on NY Alert like the other areas indicated. This would have placed members of the public at risk if they did not see the complete areas to be evacuated because some members of the public who should have evacuated might have stayed within the 10-mile EPZ RECOMMENDATION: Ensure that all information regarding areas to be evacuated is presented clearly in printed and posted materials, including the JIC website.

SCHEDULE OF CORRECTIVE ACTIONS: The corrective action for this issue will be demonstrated at the next federally evaluated, biennial exercise.

2.1.11 Orange County - Medical Services Hospital (St Lukes Cornwall Hospital - May 28, 2009)

a. MET: 6.d.1

b. AREAS REQUIRING CORRECTIVE ACTION: ONE ISSUE NO: 32-08-3.a.1-A-03 CONDITION: The procedure for St. Lukes Cornwall Hospital does not adequately address exposure control for emergency workers.

Radiology Policy and Procedure Number IP 1018 does not include procedures for using dosimetry, administrative reporting limits, or a decision chain for replacing emergency workers. During the event, workers were questioned regarding their dose limits. Workers reported that the dose limit was 5 R, with a reporting level of 1 R. If increasing levels of exposure were noted on the DRDs, then the Radiological Safety Officer (RSO) would be consulted and would be responsible for replacing workers if necessary.

This information was covered in the training session, but is not included in the procedures. Additionally, since they used a 200 mR DRD, the DRD would have to be re-zeroed four times before reaching the administrative reporting level of 1 R.

POSSIBLE CAUSE: St. Lukes Cornwall Hospital Radiology Policy and Procedure Number IP 1018 does not provide guidance to continually monitor and control emergency worker exposure, and the dosimetry provided would be awkward to use as the dose level approached the administrative level of 1R because of its low reading value (200 mR).

REFERENCE:

NUREG-0654 K 3.a.,b.

EFFECT: Without a procedure to continually monitor and control emergency worker exposure, which includes setting administrative dose limits, a worker may potentially receive unwarranted radiation exposure that is potentially harmful to human health. Additionally, having to re-zero a 200 mR dosimeter 4 times before reaching the administrative reporting level of 1 mR would cause further delay and exposure.

35

RECOMMENDATION: The procedure needs revision to include guidance on use of dosimetry, administrative dose limits, and designate an individual who is responsibile for managing worker exposure control. Also, provision of higher-reading (0-20 R) self reading dosimeters in addition to the 200 mR's should be considered. Personnel should be trained on the revised procedure.

SCHEDULE OF CORRECTIVE ACTIONS: The corrective action for this issue will be demonstrated at the next federally evaluated, biennial exercise.

b. AREAS REQUIRING CORRECTIVE ACTION: ONE ISSUE NO: 32-08-5.b.1-A-04 CONDITION: Several Emergency Alert System (EAS) Follow-On messages that had been approved for publication by the Putnam County leadership were not published in the NY-Alert system.

POSSIBLE CAUSE: The Putnam County public information supervisory staff apparently did not verify directly in the NY-Alert system and the EAS/News Release Log Book if EAS Follow-On messages approved by the Putnam County leadership had in fact been published in the system and documented in the log. This was possibly because of insufficient and/or inadequate training from the New York State Emergency Management Office (NYSEMO) in the use of the NY-Alert system.

REFERENCE:

NUREG-0654, E.5 and E.7.; Putnam County Radiological Emergency Response Plan, Putnam Public Information Procedure, August 1,2008.

EFFECT: Lack of updated emergency information for the public in the NY-Alert system.

38

RECOMMENDATION: Putnam County should coordinate with NYSEMO to provide additional training in the use of the NY-Alert system, and to provide additional training to its emergency management leadership and JIC Workroom staff regarding the county Public Information Procedure. In particular, the training should address the need to verify directly in the NY-Alert system that messages that have been approved for distribution are in fact published. The training should also address the need to review the content of EAS follow-on messages to ensure consistency with the associated EAS message.

NYSEMO should coordinate with Putnam County and other users to review its NY-Alert system to identify opportunities to streamline the process of drafting, publishing, and archiving messages.

e. PRIOR ISSUES - RESOLVED: TWO ISSUE NO: 75-06-5.a.3-A-02 ISSUE: The Putnam County Sheriffs Department EOC representative did not follow up on the time it took to complete backup route alerting that was performed (simulated) following a report of siren failures when the Emergency Classification Level was at Alert. The requirement for backup route alerting is that it be completed within 45 minutes from when a siren failure is detected by the ORO (per NUREG-0654, E.6, Appendix 3.B.2.c).

CORRECTIVE ACTION DEMONSTRATED: Putnam County currently uses a high speed telephone emergency notification system known as Code RED to provide back-up to the new siren system to alert and notify residents located within the Indian Point Energy Center (IPEC)

Emergency Planning Zone (EPZ). During the exercise Putnam County successfully demonstrated the ability to provide timely back-up alert and notification by delivering a prerecorded test message using its new Code RED system. For the purposes of the exercise, the Code RED system was demonstrated concurrently with the first siren activation.

39

ISSUE NO: 75-06-5.b.1-A-03 ISSUE: The Putnam County Public Information Officer (PIO)/Joint Information Center (JIC) Work room did not receive operations information of significant public relevance in a timely manner. As a result, in some cases, inaccurate information was presented during media briefings and, in other cases, there were delays in making up-to-date information available to the media and the public. Because the lead PIO for the county was also the EOC Operations Officer, some public and media inquires that were successfully handled by the EOC Operations Officer did not get relayed to the EOC Emergency Information Coordinator and the PIO/JIC Work room was not made aware of these inquiries.

CORRECTIVE ACTION DEMONSTRATED: Putnam County demonstrated effective and timely flow of critical information between the EOC operations staff and the JIC Workroom. During the exercise, the Public Information Administrator located in the JIC Work room maintained frequent communication via telephone with the Emergency Information Coordinator/Public Information lead located in the EOC. Additionally, the Public Information Administrator periodically reviewed new information posted by EOC staff on the Putnam County EOC information management system (EOC Commander) and proactively engaged the Emergency Information Coordinator/Public Information lead regarding new and evolving activities to ensure that, as appropriate, the current status of Putnam County's actions could be promptly addressed in press releases and conveyed to the spokesperson, who participated in the Virtual JIC.

e. PRIOR ISSUES - RESOLVED: TWO ISSUE NO: 75-06-3.a.1-A-04 ISSUE: The Putnam County Field Monitoring Teams (FMTs) were directed, at 11:35 a.m., to take KI in response to the declaration of a General Emergency at Indian Point. The FMTs were never informed that a radioactive release had occurred and were not directed to don protective clothing (to be simulated). This is in direct contradiction to the requirements in the Putnam County Radiological Emergency Response Plan, Section 3.4 (p. 4-41), which states, "team members will be directed to don protective clothing when the following three conditions are met: (1) A General Emergency has been declared, (2) there has been a release of radioactive material from the site and (3) the wind is blowing from the site toward Putnam County.

Since these conditions were met in the scenario, the direction to the FMTs to dress in Anti-Contamination clothing should have been given concurrent with the notice to ingest KI, but was omitted from the radio -

communicated notice.

CORRECTIVE ACTION DEMONSTRATED: Putnam County Field Monitoring Teams were informed that a radiological release had occured and were directed to don protective clothing (simulated) as required per the Putnam County Radiological Emergency Response Plan. Putnam County Field Monitoring Teams did successfully demonstrate this criterion, with no additional issues identified.

ISSUE NO: 75-06-4.a.3-A-05 ISSUE: Putnam County Field Team Alpha did not take radiation exposure rate readings at the 5 minute mark and at the completion of the air sampling. These additional exposure rate surveys are called for in Step 1.6 of the Airborne Survey Techniques method (Putnam County Radiological Emergency Response Plan, Procedure 4, Radiological Officer, p. 4-68).

41

CORRECTIVE ACTION DEMONSTRATED: This ARCA was successfully demonstrated during the 2008 exercise by Putnam County Field Teams. Putnam County Field Teams did take radiation exposure readings at the beginning, 5 minute mark and at the completion of the air sampling as required per the Putnam County Radiological Emergency Response Plan during the exercise.

e. PRIOR ISSUES - RESOLVED: TWO ISSUE NO: 75-06-3.d.1-A-08 ISSUE: During the Indian Point Energy Center (IPEC) radiological emergency response exercise on November 14, 2006, the Putnam County Emergency Management Agency provided two Putnam County Sheriffs Department management personnel for interviews to demonstrate the extent of play with regard to the ability to provide staffing at traffic and access control points (TCP/ACP). The intent of the extent of play interviews was to determine if personnel who normally would staff TCP/ACPs had adequate knowledge and training to fulfill these functions. The management personnel provided, who were both sergeants and playing as the Sheriffs Department representatives at the EOC, did not meet the intent of the extent of play.

CORRECTIVE ACTION DEMONSTRATED: The Putnam County Sheriffs Department furnished two line level officers for interview to demonstrate this criterion. These officers were separate and apart from the management level officers representing the PCSD in the EOC. These were officers who would be assigned to TCPs in an actual event. They were interviewed separately and demonstrated a commendable knowledge of the mission asignment, all policies and procedures and were very familiar with operation of all issued equipment.

2.2.16 Putnam County- General Population Reception Center (Carmel High School - April 4, 2009)

a. MET: 3.a.1, 3.b.1, 6.b.1

b. AREAS REQUIRING CORRECTIVE ACTION: TWO ISSUE NO: 32-08-6.a.1-A-05 CONDITION: At both male and female decontamination areas, although they appear in the Reception Center Schematics (Putnam County Radiological Response Plan Appendix V, Rev 8/08, page V-6), step-off pads were not utilized. At the male decontamination area, the post-decontamination survey was conducted in the middle of the room and not at a clear egress point. The evacuee was then allowed to walk out through a potentially contaminated area. Also in the male decontamination area the personnel monitors were not initially aware of the release criteria and (0.1 mR above background) and had to be prompted by the controller. At the female decontamination area, the bottoms of the evacuees shoes were not checked and the Personnel Decontamination Specialists were admittedly not familiar with the procedure. In both areas, contamination controls must be improved to prevent the potential spread of contamination to non-contaminated areas of the facility.

POSSIBLE CAUSE: Because the reception center demonstration was conducted in conjunction with a mass casualty incident involving school children, more volunteers arrived to help at the school than were originally expected. While the fact that many volunteers showed up and were eager to help should be viewed as positive, many of these volunteers had received little or no training.

REFERENCE:

NUREG - 0654 J.12; Putnam County Radiological Emergency Response Plan, Appendix V- Reception Center Schematics (Rev 8/08), pageV-6 EFFECT: The failure to properly monitor evacuees at egress points could result in the reception center becoming contaminated.

SCHEDULE OF CORRECTIVE ACTIONS: The corrective action for this issue will be demonstrated at the next federally evaluated biennial exercise.

46

ISSUE NO: 32-08-6.a.1-A-06 CONDITION: At the personnel monitoring point, after an alarm was received on the portal monitor, the Personnel Monitor proceeded to frisk the evacuee. This unnecessary step took several minutes to complete and is contrary to the Putnam County Radiological Response Plan, Procedure 3, step 4.5.7,which directs the Monitor, in the event of an alarm to, note the area of the alarm indication and to direct the evacuee to step back and proceed to the decontamination area.

POSSIBLE CAUSE: The most likely cause is unfamiliarity with the content of the procedure.

REFERENCE:

NUREG - 0654 J.12; Putnam County Radiological EmergencyResponse Plan, Procedure 3, step 4.5.7 (Rev 7/08).

EFFECT: When contamination is detected on an individual, it should be removed as soon as possible to maintain exposure as low as possible.

This is true for not only emergency workers, but also the general public.

The unnecessary frisking of evacuees could also lead to long lines, long wait times and negatively impact the productivity rate for this facility.

RECOMMENDATION: Provide additional training on the content of Procedure 3 for Personnel Monitors.

SCHEDULE OF CORRECTIVE ACTIONS: The corrective action for this issue will be demonstrated at the next federally evaluated, biennial exercise.

b. AREAS REQUIRING CORRECTIVE ACTION: TWO ISSUE NO: 32-08-1.e.1-A-07 CONDITION: The Pearl River (PR) Personnel Monitoring Center (PMC) mission included issuance of KI to general public evacuees, at their request, upon their arrival at the PMC. As part of the PMC setting-up process, a large cardboard box, containing an estimated 2,000 packets of KI was taken to the two-person team assigned to handle KI issues to the general public. Some, if not all, packets had passed an expiration date of over one year.

Each KI packet consisted of 14 - 130 mg IOSAT tablets. Examination of the labels of approximately 50 packets revealed that the expiration date of each (3/20/07) had passed. The PR Fire Chief (PMC Director) and the KI issue team stated that there was no other supply of KI at the PMC and that they were not aware of any letter extending the use of the expired KI. The observer from RC added that adequate supplies of new KI were available at the County, but the delivery of them to the PR PMC was in advertently overlooked in preparing for this evaluation. Both the Rockland County observer and the State Controller concurred that no letter extending the shelf-life of the expired KI had been promulgated.

49

POSSIBLE CAUSE: The apparent cause of the condition described above was the failure to distribute current KI stocks from the RC Emergency Management Office to the PR PMC and to dispose of the expired stocks of KI.

REFERENCE:

NUREG-0654 J.10.e.

EFFECT: Issuing KI beyond its expiration date, unless the expiration date is extended and justified in writing by competent authority, could result in the user receiving reduced, no, and/or adverse benefit from the properties of the expired KI.

CORRECTIVE ACTION DEMONSTRATED: There were stocks of KI with a proper date of 2/2014 at the Pearl River Personnel Monitoring Center; however, the old stock had not yet been removed. Rockland County Emergency Management Office has removed the expired KI.

This issue is resolved.

ISSUE NO: 32-08-3.a.1-A-08 CONDITION: It was observed that the dosimetry issuance for all the emergency workers (EWs) was not documented on a single record/log.

The name and Self-Reading Dosimeters/Permanent Record Dosimetry (SRD/PRD) serial numbers were documented on the Radiation Exposure Record (Individual) card by each EW. This card was issued with the dosimetry and was taken by the EW to document their periodic SRD readings. At the end of the exercise, the Radiation Exposure Record (Individual) cards were turned in by all the EWs along with the dosimetry. By interview it was determined that the only documentation at the PMC would be the Radiation Exposure Record (Individual) cards.

EFFECT: Without a combined (master list) record of what dosimetry was issued to each EW at the dosimetry issue point the Radiation Exposure Record (Individual) card becomes essential. Problems of lost cards or improperly documented cards could lead to not knowing which EW had what dosimetry, and therefore not know their exposure.

50

CORRECTIVE ACTION DEMONSTRATED: The Rockland County Office of Emergency Management has created an Emergency Worker Dosimetry Issuance Log. This log is part of DOH-2 attachment 8 and will be part of the 2009 plan changes.This issue is resolved.

ISSUE NO: 32-08-4.a.2-A-09 CONDITION: In order to characterize the plume, both exposure rate data and radioiodine concentration measurements are needed.

The licensee uses one of two default noble gas to iodine ratios for two types of release scenarios. For a Loss of Coolant Accident the assumed noble gas to iodine ratio is 10000 and for a steam generator accident the ratio is 100. The field monitoring data is one method verifying the validity of these assumptions. The licensee failed to provide any radioiodine concentration data to the offsite jurisdictions.

POSSIBLE CAUSE: Dependency on the default noble gas to iodine ratios without any verification of the accuracy of the value.

REFERENCE:

NUREG-0654 I.10; WCERP Procedure 3-1 Attachment 3, Step 1 EFFECT: A relatively minor error in the 10000 to 1 ratio which was assumed in this exercise, has the potential to impact the accuracy of the thyroid dose projection and therefore the appropriate distance that would require evacuation and does not allow the offsite jurisdiction to characterize the release.

RECOMMENDATION: Retrain all staff both onsite and offsite to impress upon them the importance of getting radioiodine data to verify or modify the assumed ratios in the release. Add steps in the procedures to assure that responders follow through with verifying the assumed ratios.

SCHEDULE OF CORRECTIVE ACTIONS: The corrective action for this issue will be demonstrated at the next federally evaluated biennial exercise.

EXTENT-OF-PLAY GROUND RULES

• REAL LIFE EMERGENCIES TAKE PRIORITY OVER EXERCISE PLAY.

• The Scenario Development Team will develop the Exercise free play messages.

The State Controller will inject these messages for action as agreed upon.

• Optional messages will be developed and inserted to facilitate EOC participation.

• The Scenario Development Team will develop Exercise free play messages for Public Inquiry conducted at the New York State Tax and Finance Call Center in Albany, NY and at the Westchester County Alternate Emergency Operations Center/MOB in White Plains, NY. Public Inquiry messages will be injected to the two call centers by a control cell(s).

• The Scenario Development Team will develop Exercise free play messages for Media Inquiry. Media Inquiry messages will be injected to the State and county EOCs by a control cell(s).

• The State Controller will provide radiological data for any radiological field activities (e.g., Field Teams, Emergency Worker Personnel Monitoring Centers, Reception Centers, etc.).

• According to REP Program Strategic Review Initiative 1.5, During tabletop exercises, drills and other demonstrations conducted out-of-sequence from an integrated exercise, if FEMA and the offsite response organizations (ORO) agree, the FEMA Evaluator may have the participants re-demonstrate an activity that is determined to be not satisfactorily demonstrated. Immediate correction of issues in an integrated exercise is authorized only if it would not be disruptive and interrupt the flow of the exercise and affect other Evaluation Areas. This initiative is not applicable to EOC/JIC/EOF demonstrations during the December 3, 2008 exercise.

• The following criteria, which deal with ingestion pathway, relocation, re-entry and return, post-plume phase and lab operations, will not be demonstrated:

2.d.1 2.e.1 3.e.1 3.e.2 3.f.1 4.b.1 4.c.1

After power is restored the operators will take actions to restore make up water (charging flow) to the reactor coolant system. The field tea m will be dispatched to align the refueling water storage tank (RWST) to the charging pump suction. (Charging flow will not be established before red path core cooling conditions exist.) Operators will complete required act ions in procedure EC A-0.0 and transition to procedur e ECA-0.2 Loss of All AC Power Recovery with SI Required.

Operators will attempt to start #31 safety injection pump; however it will trip automatically. The control room will dispatch operators to investigate. The reactor vessel level indicating system (RVLIS) begins to decrease be low 33% and reactor core exit temperatures (CETs) incr ease greater than 715°. This would indicate the fuel is not being cooled and is over heating. This condition results in a Red Path in core cooling.

Actions to reduce temperatur e less than 715° will be unsuccessful. Conditions for a General Emergency (GE) will exist and a GE shoud be declared base upon EAL 1.2.2 Red Path Core Cooli ng and Functional restoration actions taken and procedures not effective within 15 minutes.

To facilitate the objectives of a site radiol ogical release, the radiation detectors in t he vapor containment building (R25/26) will be ramped from 1R to 800R and radiation monitors R2 and R7 will fail high. This will allow simulation of significant core damage.

Approximately 3 minutes after the GE is declared, alignment to the RWST will be successful.

Operators will complete the required actions for power restoration and transition to procedure FR C-1, Inadequate Core Cooling. OSC field teams will be successful in restoring #31 emergency diesel generator. Simulator CCR should start #31 residual heat removal (RHR) and #32 safety injection (SI) pumps. Within 1 minute after they start, both will trip on overcurrent. These pumps will not be repaired. Core cooling flow will be limited through out the exercis e to preclude operators from establishing cold leg recirculation.

A monitored radiological release from cont ainment occurs. The release will be detected by rising levels on plant vent radiation m onitors R-1 4 and R-27. The source of the release will be from a failed containment penetration for post accident containment venting.

APPENDIX 5 PLANNING ISSUES

1. Orange County - Field Monitoring Team 2 ISSUE NO: 32-08-3.b.1-P-01 CONDITION: While appropriate KI was available for use by emergency workers, the issuance of KI to FMTs was not in accordance with the current requirements of Procedure 24, "Exposure Control." This procedure also does not accurately reflect the intended manner of distribution of dosimetry and KI at the new Orange County EOC. Specifically, according to Procedure 24, Steps 5.2.1 and 5.2.5, issuance of dosimetry and KI to workers is the sole responsibility of the Emergency Worker Supervisor. However, current protocol at the Orange County EOC is for FMTs to deploy directly to the new EOC and begin inventory and operational checks without necessarily interfacing with an emergency worker supervisor. In this exercise, the RACES Team members assigned to the FMTs were performing the functions of dosimetry and KI issuance. However issuance of dosimetry or KI by anyone other than the Field Team supervisor is a deviation from Procedure 24 requirements. The RACES personnel did not use or have an appropriate procedure to accomplish this task and while dosimetry was appropriately provided to Team 1, KI was not.

When questioned about KI prior to dispatch, Team 1 technical members recalled that the KI was stored in a cabinet and they proceeded to obtain sufficient KI to take to the field. It is not clear whether this would have been accomplished had the question not been asked, however the existing exposure control Procedure 24, as implemented without the field team supervisor, did not drive KI issuance by the RACES support personnel. Other KI responsibilities, including providing instructions for continued use after initial authorization to take it, and instruction on the potential allergic reactions, were also not accomplished during issuance of KI or during the FMT briefing by the Field Team Coordinator. Lastly, the Form 3, Individual Radiation Exposure Record Form does not include a place to record KI expiration, although Procedure 22 - "Field Radiological Monitoring," Step 4.2.3 requires the Field Teams to record the KI expiration date on the form. Since 118

Procedure 22 does not address RACES team member tasks and KI issuance was being done by RACES personnel and not technical team members using Procedure 22 for operational checks, this step in the procedure was never performed and the expiration date was not recorded on the Form 3 for team 1.

POSSIBLE CAUSE: Field Team Supervisor is no longer expected to engage with field teams at the time of inventory and operational checks and prior to dispatch. As such, the procedural steps for dosimetry and KI issuance assigned to this position were not completed.

REFERENCE:

NUREG-0654, J.10 e.,f.

EFFECT: Field Teams could inadvertently be deployed to the field without KI in their posession and without adequate instruction as to side effects and use requirements in the days following an emergency.

RECOMMENDATION: Revise procedures to reflect proper issuance of dosimetry and KI. Also consider inclusion of KI tablets in field team kits.

2. Orange County - Field Monitoring Team 2 ISSUE NO: 32-08-4.a.1-P-02 CONDITION: During the RM-14 operability check, neither the procedural instruction nor other mechanism (equipment label, etc) specified an acceptable range of readings needed to ensure the equipment was indeed operational and suitable for field use. In order to be properly tested for operability, a given instrument reading must fall within both a lower and upper range of values specific to the source being used. However Procedure 22, "Field Radiological Monitoring," states only that the Cs-137 check source must read greater than 10,000 cpm. No upper level is provided for which a higher reading would also indicate an equipment malfunction and no specific source is identified. The source provided in the kit delivered only 9000 cpm and the team then borrowed a check source from another kit and found that the instrument response with this source was well over the required 10000 cpm.

No upper range was evaluated since the procedure (or other instruction) did not specify one.

119

POSSIBLE CAUSE: The procedures are not adequate in assuring the operability of the RM-14.

REFERENCE:

NUREG 0654 H.10 EFFECT: Equipment may may pass operational test but still be defective due to insufficient testing criteria.

RECOMMENDATION: Update procedures for operational checks of equipment to include upper ranges specific to each source.

3. Orange County - Medical Services Hospital - St Lukes Cornwall Hospital ISSUE NO: 32-08-6.d.1-P-03 CONDITION: Use of the 44-9 probe with the Ludlum Model 14 survey meter should utilize the counts-per-minute (cpm) scale for detection of contamination. This is inconsistent with the contamination decision criteria designated in the hospital procedure, which provides action levels in mR/hr.

The procedure specifies survey action levels of less than 0.05 mR/hr as background, 0.005-100 mR/hr as contamination, and greater than 100 mR/hr as heavy contamination.

POSSIBLE CAUSE: The procedure addresses risk in terms of radiation risk from exposure, rather than determining contamination level.

REFERENCE:

NUREG-0654 K.5.a, FEMA-REP-22: Contamination Monitoring Guidance for Portable Instruments used for Radiological Emergency Response to Nuclear Power Plant Accidents.

EFFECT: Counts-per-minute is the proper unit for instrument readings when measuring beta-gamma emitting surface contamination. For purposes of accuracy and technical appropriateness, the proper scale should be utilized.

RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that Procedure IP 1018 be revised to use decontamination decision criteria for individuals in cpm, consistent with FEMA-REP-22.

120

4. Orange County - Medical Services Transport Cornwall Volunteer Ambulance Corps.

ISSUE NO: 32-08-6d1-P-04 CONDITION: The crew from the Cornwall Volunteer Ambulance Corps and staff at the St. Lukes Cornwall Hospital were unaware of the procedure that requires the ambulance crew to report to an Orange County Emergency Worker Personnel Monitoring Center (EWPMC) if found to be contaminated after monitoring by hospital staff.

POSSIBLE CAUSE: Lack of training and ambiguity in how the procedure is written.

REFERENCE:

F.2; H.10; K.5.a,b; L.1; L.4, Orange County RERP July 2006, Attachment 9: Guidelines for the Treatment and Transport of Potentially Contaminated Injured People,Section III, Paragraph B, Page 10-23.

EFFECT: If ambulance crew members are decontaminated and treated at the hospital instead of a dedicated County Emergency Worker Personnel Monitoring Center, this will take up space and hospital staff time that will be needed at the hospital Radiation Emergency Area (REA) for the treatment of the general public that may have been contaminated.

CORRECTIVE ACTION DEMONSTRATED: In Attachment 9, Under Section III, Paragraph B, on page 10-23 in the Orange County RERP, it reads as follows:

B. For Rescue-Squad personnel:

1. Hospital personnel will perform a survey of clothing, ambulance, etc.

upon arrival at the hospital before undertaking further activity.

2. If contaminated, discard clothing in container marked Radioactive

3. All rescue-squad personnel that are found to be contaminated should report to an activated Orange County Emergency Worker Personnel Monitoring Center.

121

This procedure needs more clarity on what actions is to take place on part of hospital staff and ambulance crew after the patient is discharged into the hospitals care. The procedure should state under what circumstances if any, that ambulance crew members are to be decontaminated and treated at the hospital, or must report to a EWPMC instead of should. The removal of contaminated clothing by ambulance crew members at the hospital and the sending them to a EWPMC may not be feasible due to weather conditions and temperatures, and what the clothing requirements are of the Rescue Squad.

The Orange County Radiological Officer has agreed with this recommendation and has revised the procedure accordingly. The updated procedure has been reviewed and approved by FEMA.

5. Rockland County - Field Monitoring Team 2 ISSUE NO: 32-08-3.b.1-P-05 CONDITION: One Rockland County Field Monitoring Team 2 (RC FMT2) team member commented that she was allergic and could not take KI. When the team was instructed by the Field Team Coordinator (FTC) to take KI the other RC FMT2 team members took their KI (simulated) and notified the FTC that they had done so. The FTC was not advised that one team member was unable to take KI.

POSSIBLE CAUSE: County of Rockland, Office of Fire and Emergency Services procedure DOH-7, "Field Monitoring Team Coordinator," Paragraph 5.4.11, only requires the FTC to ensure that all field teams have been instructed to take KI when the decision has been made for it to be taken. The procedure does not provide guidance in the event that a field team member is unable to take KI. County of Rockland, Office of Fire and Emergency Services procedure DOH-8, "Potassium Issue and Use," Paragraph 5.8, requires emergency workers to record how much and when KI was taken but does not require reporting when an individual is unable to take KI.

REFERENCE:

NUREG 0654 J.10.e EFFECT: Not knowing that a field team member has not taken KI, the Field 122

Team Coordinator could direct the team into an area, or direct the team to stay in an area, where the individual could receive excess thyroid dose.

RECOMMENDATION: Procedures should be updated to require emergency workers to report taking, or not taking, KI when instructed to do so.

Procedures should also include guidance for emergency worker coordinators to take appropriate measures when an emergency worker is unable to take KI.

6. Rockland County Emergency Operations Center ISSUE NO: 32-08-2.b.2-P-06 CONDITION: The Rockland County Radiological Emergency Preparedness Plan,Section III, Rev. 07/08, page III-25, Table III-1, states that when the projected dose to the population is 25 rem committed dose equivalent (CDE) to the thyroid from radioiodine, then the recommended action is to administer stable iodine.

The projected 25 rem thyroid CDE to warrant the recommendation to ingest KI is consistent with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) guidance found in the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Manual of Protective Action Guides and Protective Actions for Nuclear Emergencies, 1992, EPA-400-R-92-001. However, this guidance has been superceded by the FDA Guidance: "Potassium Iodide as a Thyroid Blocking Agent in Radiation Emergencies," November 2001. This guidance recommends the ingestion of KI as a function of age and projected thyroid CDE. It includes the recommendation to ingest KI for:

Children from birth to 18 years (<70 kg in weight): > 5 rem thyroid CDE Pregnant or lactating women: > 5 rem thyroid CDE Adults 18 through 40: > 10 rem thyroid CDE Adults over 40: > 500 rem thyroid CDE Also, the policy in Table III-1 is not consistent with the Rockland County Procedure, DOH-8 "Potassium Iodide Issue and Use," Rev 07/08, page 3, that states, upon declaration of a General Emergency by the licensee, a recommendation to evacuate and take KI would be made simultaneously.

123

POSSIBLE CAUSE: Failure of the Rockland County Radiological Emergency Preparedness Plan to use the most current FDA guidance for recommending KI for the public and the Rockland County Radiological Emergency Preparedness Plan is not consistent with the DOH-8 procedure.

REFERENCE:

NUREG 0654 J.10.e; Rockland County Plan, Rev. 07/08, page III-25, Table III-1; and DOH-8.

EFFECT: The difference between Table III-1 and DOH-8 could result in confusion for the decision makers. Also, using the outdated projected 25 rem thyroid CDE as the trigger for recommending KI for members of the public between birth and 40 years old subjects those individuals to an increased thyroid cancer risk.

RECOMMENDATION: Modify the county plan to be consistent with DOH-8 and the current FDA guidance on the projected thyroid CDE that warrants the ingestion of KI by the public.

7. Westchester County - Field Monitoring Team HD-1 ISSUE NO: 32-08-4.a.3-P-07 CONDITION: IP-3.2, Attachment 5 "Conduct of an Air Sample" Step 3.0 directed the Field Monitoring Teams to take a 10 cubic feet air sample and referred the reader to Attachment 6 (Air Sampler Model H-809C) for air sampler run times. However, Attachment 6 contained no run times for obtaining a10 cubic feet air sample at different flow rates. For the two air samples taken, the flow rates were 0.9 and 0.8 cubic feet per minute (cfm),

less than calibration flow rate of 1 cfm. When the EOC was informed of this, Field Monitoring Team HD-1 was instructed to continue to use 10 minutes as the sampling time because the air sampler was calibrated for 1 cfm and to not adjust the time duration.

POSSIBLE CAUSE: IP-3.2 was revised 8/08 and run time information was eliminated from Attachment 6. When contacted, the WC EOC instructed HD-1 to continue to use 10 minutes as the sampler run time even if the flow rate is not exactly 1 cfm.

124

REFERENCE:

NUREG-0654 I.9; Westchester County Radiological Emergency Response Plan, Implementation Procedure IP-3.2 "Field Monitoring Team" Attachments 5 and 6.

EFFECT: For this exercise, there was no effect because Field Monitoring Team HD-1 was not in the plume when they took their air samples; hence all their measurements were background. However, if the team were in the plume and the air sampler flow rate differed from the calibrated rate, then using a fixed sampling time (10 minutes) would result in a total air volume sampled to be higher or lower than 10 cubic feet that would be used in performing iodine dose calculations.

RECOMMENDATION: Either revise Attachment 5 of IP-3.2 to instruct the Field Monitoring Teams to record and transmit the air sampler flow rate observed when using a fixed sampling duration or revise Attachment 6 of IP-3.2 to provide the sampling durations (run times) needed to obtain a fixed sampling volume of air of 10 cubic feet.

8. Westchester County - Field Monitoring Team HD-1 ISSUE NO: 32-08-4.a.3-P-08 CONDITION: Information was not marked on the envelopes for the air samples as per SOP IP- 3.2 "Field Monitoring Teams". Steps 7.0, 9.0, 10.0, 11.0, and 14.0 of Attachment 5 "Conduct of an Air Sample" directed that the following be marked on the Air Sample Data Collection Envelopes:

Envelope Containing the Particulate Filter Filter Gross CPM, Filter Background CPM, Net Filter CPM and Filter Envelope Contact Dose Rate Envelope Containing the Cartridge Higher of the Cartridge Gross CPM through envelope and Cartridge Net CPM 125

Instead the following were marked:

Envelope Containing the Particulate Filter Date, Team, Sampling location, Filter sample, start and stop times of the air sample and CPM (unknown if gross, background or net).

Envelope Containing the Cartridge Date, Team, Sample location, Cartridge sample, start and stop times of the air sample and CPM for front and back of envelope containing cartridge.

POSSIBLE CAUSE: Steps 7.0 through 15.0 of IP-3.2 were not followed for recording information on the Air Sample Data Collection Envelopes. Although SOP IP-3.2 Attachment 5 identified what should be marked on the envelope, the envelopes provided were blank 5x7-inch brown envelopes. Without a pre-printed label or information/data template for the envelope, it made it difficult for Field Monitoring Team HD-1 to correctly fill in the information required by to be recorded on the envelopes.

REFERENCE:

NUREG-0654 I.9; Westchester County Radiological Emergency Response Plan, Implementation Procedure IP-3.2 "Field Monitoring Team" and Attachment 5 "Conduct of an Air Sample."

EFFECT: For this exercise, there was no effect because Field Monitoring Team HD-1 was not in the plume when air sampling was performed; hence all their filter and cartridge measurements were background. However, if HD-1 were sampling in the plume, there would be incomplete field information provided to inform the sample recipient of the potential envelope content when the sample envelopes are transferred to the courier or to the sample custodian at the Westchester County Emergency Worker Decontamination Center,. More importantly, the information required by Attachment 5 to be recorded on the envelopes does not provide key information such as date, location of sampling, time of sampling which HD-1 did write on the envelopes.

As written, the recipient of the sample would have no idea of the sampling locations unless Attachment 7 of IP-3.2 accompanied the sample envelopes.

126

RECOMMENDATION: Consider revising IP-3.2 Attachment 5 to include a form or label for the sample envelope to prompt for the information/data that should be recorded. Consider revising Attachment 5 to include recording other key data to be attached to the sample envelope or require a copy of Attachment 7 to accompany the envelope.

9. Westchester County - Medical Services Hospital - Westchester Medical Center ISSUE NO: 32-08-6.d.1-P-09 CONDITION: A number of activities were observed that would be improved by procedure enhancements at the hospital. Because the Lead Controller had the wrong telephone number for the hospital, the hospital was not notified of the patient being enroute. A security officer stationed outside did not inform the drill participants that the ambulance had arrived. In addition, when surveys were conducted in the REA, the probe on the radiation detector (E-520) was not covered. Finally, although the Radiological Safety Physicist stationed outside did a good job reminding the hospital crew to read dosimeters every 15 minutes, a poster containing similar information should be used in case this individual is not present POSSIBLE CAUSE: Some activities have not been captured in the hospital procedure.

REFERENCE:

NUREG 0654, L.1 EFFECT: Although a significant problem is not likely to occur if this issue is not addressed, the processes at the hospital might be improved if they are.

For example, a patient may not wait as long outside if the security officer is aware that he must notify hospital staff that an expected ambulance has arrived. Also, covering a radiation detecter probe would most likely prevent it from becoming contaminated. Finally, a poster with dosimeter requirements and action levels may prevent personnel from forgetting to read their DRD's or exceeding a dose limit.

127

RECOMMENDATION: Revise the hospital procedure to require covering the detector probe prior to conducting radiological surveys. The procedure should include having the security person stationed outside inform hospital staff when an ambulance is waiting outside with a patient. Also, although the Radiological Safety Physicist stationed outside did a good job reminding the hospital crew to read dosimeters every 15 minutes, a poster containing similar information would be useful in case this individual is not present.

10. Westchester County - Warning Point ISSUE NO: 32-08-1.a.1-P-10 CONDITION: The Emergency Operations Center (EOC) activation list provided to the evaluator to demonstrate quarterly updating was not the same list that was used during the exercise.

POSSIBLE CAUSE: The activation list utilized during the drill had not been replaced with the updated list.

REFERENCE:

NUREG-0654/FEMA-REP-1, E.1, E.2 EFFECT: No negative consequences occurred. Only one phone contact is necessary to activate the EOC and the list had five of the seven correct names.

RECOMMENDATION: Replace the list in the WP with the updated activation list.

128

11. Westchester County - School Bus Company - Hendrick Hudson Bus ISSUE NO: 32-08-3.a.1-P-20 CONDITION: The inventory at the School Bus Garage no longer has TLDs.

Instead the TLDs were replaced with a newer technology OSL permanent record dosimeter.

The new inventory is not accurately documented inWestchester Countys Plan.

POSSIBLE CAUSE: A possible cause for the deviation between the plan and the inventory of the bus garage is that the plan may not have been updated since the issuance of the newly calibrated dosimeters to the bus garage.

REFERENCE:

NUREG-0654 FEMA-REP 1 Rev. 1 Part II Section K Westchester County Radiological Emergency Plan for the Indian Point EnergyCenter Procedure 5 - DOT, Attachment 1 EFFECT: The equipment issued to the emergency workers are not the sameas described in the plan.

RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended to update the plan to reflect the new dosimeters in inventory.

129

12. Westchester County - School Bus Company - Hendrick Hudson Bus ISSUE NO: 32-10-3.a.1-P-18 CONDITION: Hendrick Hudson Bus Company did not have proper dosimeters as described in the Westchester County Radiological Emergency Plan for the Indian Point Energy Center.

The bus company had 50 Arrow-Tech, Model 730 directreading dosimeters with a range of 0-20R.

Procedures 3 and 5 of the Westchester County Radiological Emergency Plan call for a 0-5R dosimeter and a 0-200R dosimeter to be issued.

POSSIBLE CAUSE: Someone changed the type of dosimeters in inventory despite what is described in the plan.

REFERENCE:

NUREG-0654 FEMA-REP 1 Rev. 1 Part II Section K Westchester County radiological Emergency Plan for the Indian Point Energy Center Procedure 3.3 - Radiological Officer, Attachment 7.

EFFECT: If an emergency worker was working in a Life Saving or Protection of Large Populations capacity, they may not be able to monitor their total dose since equipment being issued only goes up to 20R.

RECOMMENDATION: Replace inventory with 0-5R and 0-200R dosimeters that are described in the Westchester County Radiological Emergency Plan for the Indian Point Energy Center, or update the plan to reflect current inventory. The plan should address methods of monitoring above in case emergency workers are conducing life saving operations or protection of large populations.
