After Action Report/Improvement Plan Monticello Nuclear Generating Plant EXECUTIVE

SUMMARY

On August 23, 2011, a Radiological Emergency Preparedness (REP) Partial Participation Plume Exposure Pathway Exercise evaluation was conducted by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS)/Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) for the 10-mile Emergency Planning Zone (EPZ) around the Monticello Nuclear Generating Plant (MNGP). The purpose of the exercise was to assess the level of State and local preparedness in responding to a radiological emergency. This exercise was held in accordance with DHS/FEMA's policies and guidance concerning the exercise of State and local Radiological Emergency Response Plans (RERPs) and procedures.

The most recent exercise at this site was conducted on August 18, 2009. The qualifying emergency preparedness exercise was conducted on January 7, 1981.

DHS/FEMA wishes to acknowledge the efforts of the many individuals who participated in this exercise. In the State of Minnesota, the Counties of Sherburne and Wright participated along with State Government.

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.

Cooperation and teamwork on the part of all the participants were evident during this exercise.

This Final Report contains the evaluation of the biennial exercise and the evaluation of the following out-of-sequence interviews and activities:

- Evacuee Monitoring, Decontamination, Registration, and Vehicle Monitoring and Decontamination were demonstrated at Princeton High School and the Princeton Fire Department

Medical Services Transportation and Hospital evaluation at Princeton Fairview Northland Medical Center

Protective Actions for Schools (EV-2) for the Becker/Zimmerman, Maple Lake/Dassel Cokato, and the Monticello/Maple Grove School Districts

Emergency Worker Monitoring, Decontamination, Registration, and Vehicle Monitoring and Decontamination were demonstrated at the Rockford Fire Department 5

Except where noted in this report, the State and local organizations demonstrated knowledge of and adequately implemented their emergency response plans and procedures.

INTRODUCTION - EXERCISE BASIS On December 7, 1979, the President directed FEMA to assume the lead responsibility for all offsite nuclear planning and response. DHS/FEMA's activities are conducted pursuant to 44 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Parts 350 "Review and Approval of State and Local Radiological, Emergency Plans and Preparedness", 351 "Radiological Emergency Planning and Preparedness" and 352 "Commercial Nuclear Power Plants: Emergency Preparedness Planning."

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.

The FEMA Rule 44 CFR 350 establishes the policies and procedures for DHS/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 governments' participation in joint exercises with licensees.

DHS/FEMA's responsibilities in radiological emergency planning for fixed nuclear facilities 3 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 I 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 3 Register, Vol. 58, No. 176, September 14, 1993); and

Coordinating the activities of Federal agencies with responsibilities in the radiological emergency planning process: I

- U.S. Department of Agriculture;

- U.S. Department of Commerce;

- U.S. Department of Energy; 6 1 I

Representatives of these agencies serve on the DHS/FEMA Region V Regional Assistance Committee (RAC), which is chaired by DHS/FEMA.

Formal submission of the RERPs for the MNGP to FEMA Region V by the State of Minnesota and involved local jurisdictions occurred on February 1, 1983. Formal approval of these RERPs was granted by FEMA on May 10, 1985, under 44 CFR 350.

A REP Partial Participation Plume Exposure Pathway Exercise was conducted on August 23, 2011, and evaluated by DHS/FEMA to assess the capabilities of State and local offsite emergency preparedness organizations in implementing their RERPs and procedures to protect the public health and safety during a radiological emergency involving the MNGP. The purpose of this exercise report is to present the exercise results and findings on the performance of the Offsite Response Organizations (OROs) during a simulated radiological emergency.

The findings presented in this report are based on the evaluations of the Federal evaluation team, with final determinations made by the DHS/FEMA Region V RAC Chairperson, and approved by the DHS/FEMA Headquarters.

The criteria utilized in the FEMA evaluation process are contained in:

CORRECTIVE ACTION DEMONSTRATED: ARCA (39-09-1cl-A-01) was to be redemonstrated by interview via an Inject (Message 8 - Demonstrate the decision making processes and procedures to evacuate or shelter-in-place the jail population).

At 1140 hours0.0132 days 0.317 hours 0.00188 weeks 4.3377e-4 months , the Controller provided the Inject to the Wright County Sheriff s Department (WCSD). The Evaluator discussed the process with the WCSD. The WCSD indicated that the information would be relayed to the Sheriff at the Wright County Dispatch Center and Jail and the Sheriff would make the evacuation decision.

The Evaluator asked if there would be any coordination with the Wright County Nuclear Director or Wright County Radiological Defense Officer prior to any decision. The WCSD indicated that he was only a Liaison and as such could not answer the question. the WCSD indicated again that the Sheriff makes the decision.

This does not concurr with Wright County Sheriff's Department Jail Policy and Procedure Manual dated August 6, 2009:

Evacuation:

1. Through regular contact with the EOC, if necessary the Jail will be advised to evacuate.

2. If directed to evacuate, the Wright county Jail will follow the Evacuation Plan policy 9.04 39

Unclassified Radiological Emergency Preparedness Program (REP)

After Action Report/Improvement Plan Monticello Nuclear Generating Plant The above Policy Manual and Extent-of-Play both mention that the Sheriff will be 3 advised to evacuate or shelter-in-place. This action was clearly not demonstrated.

The procedures need to be more clearly defined and training conducted to illustrate i the correct procedure for all to follow.

I On November 8, 2011, Wright County successfully re-demonstrated that key personnel with leadership roles provided direction and control for an overall response for which they are responsible.

The Area Requiring Corrective Action (39-09-lcl-A-01) has been successfully re- i demonstrated and is closed.

After Action Reportflmprovement Plan Monticello Nuclear Generating Plant SECTION 4: CONCLUSION No Deficiencies were identified for any jurisdiction during this exercise.

There was one Area Requiring Corrective Action (ARCA) identified for the State of Minnesota.

The ARCA was identified under Criterion 6.d. 1-Support Operations/Facilities, whereby the Radiation Safety Officer did not properly complete the source check and scaling process for survey meters. The ARCA was successfully re-demonstrated during the exercise.

No ARCAs were identified for Sherburne County.

There was one ARCA for Wright County (39-09-1 c l-A-01) identified under Criterion 1.c. 1 which was issued in 2009 - Key personnel with functional roles for the Offsite Response Organizations provide direction and control to the part of the overall response effort for which they are responsible, whereby the Operations Chief (Nuclear Director) and other key EOC staff were not informed by staff that a decision to evacuate the County Jail population had been made.

This ARCA was successfully re-demonstrated on November 8, 2011.

Based on the results of the August 23, 2011, exercise, the offsite radiological emergency response plans and preparedness for the State of Minnesota and affected local jurisdictions, site-specific to the MNGP, can be implemented and are adequate to provide reasonable assurance that appropriate measures can be taken offsite to protect the health and safety of the public in the event of a radiological emergency at the site.

Therefore, the Title 44 CFR, Part 350, approval of the offsite radiological emergency response plans and preparedness for the State of Minnesota site-specific to the MNGP, granted on January 4, 1981, remain in effect.

The exercise criteria, contained in the FEMA "Radiological Emergency Preparedness Exercise Evaluation Methodology; Notice," as published in the Federal Register Notice/Vol. 67, dated April 25, 2002, represent a functional translation of the planning standards and evaluation criteria of NUREG-0654/FEMA-REP-1, Rev 1, "Criteria for the Preparation and Evaluation of Radiological Emergency Response Plans and Preparedness in Support of Nuclear Power Plants," November 1980. Since the exercise criteria are intended for use at all nuclear power plant sites, and due-to variations among offsite plans and procedures, an extent-of-play agreement is prepared by the State and accepted by DHS/FEMA, to provide evaluators with guidance on expected actual demonstration of the criteria.

Exercise Criteria Listed on the following pages are the specific radiological emergency preparedness criteria that were scheduled for demonstration during this exercise.

I PREVIOUS EXERCISE FINDINGS AND PLANNING ISSUES State of Minnesota I North Memorial Medical Center in Robbinsdale received 2 Areas Requiring Corrective Action from the August 2009 Monticello Exercise. The first one (39-09-1 el-A) involved the Landauer TLD cards which did not have an exchange I date specified and there was no reference available to determine when the TLDs needed to be exchanged. The other ARCA (39-09-6d 1-A), Model 3 survey meters were response checked to ensure they responded to a radioactive check I source, but were not checked using a specified range of reading for a particular source. These ARCAs will be redemonstrated in 2013 the next time North Memorial Medical Center in Robbinsdale participates in a nuclear power plant I exercise.

Wright County Wright County received an Area Requiring Corrective Action (39-09-1cl-A)

I during the August 2009 Monticello Exercise where the decision by the Jail Captain to evacuate the jail population was not coordinated with the Wright County EOC. This ARCA will be redemonstrated during this exercise.

I Sherburne County There are no unresolved ARCAs for Sherburne County.

Sherburne County, Wright County This is a state function and will not be demonstrated by the counties.

EVALUATION AREA 5 - EMERGENCY NOTIFICATION AND PUBLIC INFORMATION SUB-ELEMENT AREA 5.a - Activation of the Prompt Alert and Notification System Criterion 5.a.1: Activities associated with primary alerting and notification of the public are completed in a timely manner following the initial decision by authorized offsite emergency officials to notify the public of an emergency situation. The initial instructional message to the public must include as a minimum the elements required by current FEMA REP guidance.

State of Minnesota The development and dissemination of an Emergency Alert System (EAS) message will be demonstrated in the SEOC. The EAS is activated only when there is a protective action (i.e., evacuation or sheltering) for people. The State EAS Plan states that the code for a nuclear generating plant incident is monitored by all relay stations and is set to automatically transmit the message from the State EOC.

The following is a summary of the PAD and EAS process:

1. The Planning and Assessment Center (PAC) receives a recommendation from the utility.

81

Unclassified Radiological Emergency Preparedness Program (REP)

After Action Report/Improvement Plan Monticello Nuclear Generating Plant REV 3.1

2. The PAC makes an independent assessment of the data and develops its recommendation.

3. The EAS Message and corresponding Special News Bulletins are selected by the Planning Chief and communicated to the Operations Chief.

4. The Operations Chief gets concurrence on the Protective Action Recommendation (PAR) from the risk counties.

5. The PAR is communicated to the Minnesota State Incident Manager (SIM)

6. The PAR is communicated to the Governor's Authorized Representative (GAR) where once approved, it becomes a Protective Action Decision (PAD).

7. The time that the sirens are sounded and the time the EAS is activated is determined by the SIM after the PAD has been approved by the GAR.

8. A copy of the approved PAD goes to the Operations Chief to coordinate these times with Wright and Sherburne counties via a conference call -

the EAS message is the State's responsibility.

9. The sirens are sounded (simulated).

10. The EAS message is transmitted (simulated).

11. Special News Bulletins are sent out.

12. Media Briefings occur.

NOTE: The first PAR is pre-approved and does not require the Governor's approval, only the State Incident Manager's (SIM's) approval. All subsequent PARs require the Governor's or GAR's approval.

An EAS Writer (located in the SEOC) will directly broadcast by radio transmission an EAS message using an encoder/decoder, which is automatically monitored by encoders/decoders by major relay stations. In addition, the EAS Writer has the capability to send a message directly over NOAA weather alert radios utilizing a link to the National Weather Service headquarters in Chanhassen, Minnesota.

EAS messages will contain basic information regarding the event. Additional information will be disseminated through the JIC using special news broadcasts and media releases.

Weather permitting, a State Patrol helicopter, equipped with a public address system, will warn recreational area individuals and/or groups. The State Patrol helicopter will do this as an out of sequence event at approximately 8:00 AM on the morning of Tuesday August 23rd and will operate from the Sherburne County Law Enforcement Center located at 13880 Highway 10, Elk River, MN. The helicopter decontamination process will be demonstrated by interview with the helicopter crew.

Results of a technical review of the scenario, submitted by the State of Minnesota and Xcel Energy on July 14, 2011, indicated that the scenario was adequate to support demonstration of Department of Homeland Security's requirements, as well as criteria selected by the OROs provided in the State's July 20, 2011, extent-of-play submission.

This exercise scenario was accepted by DHS/FEMA Region V on July 21, 2011.

During the exercise, in addition to information and data provided through the MNGP onsite scenario, controllers from the State of Minnesota gave "inject messages" containing scenario events and/or relevant data to those persons or locations who would normally receive notification of such events.

The inject messages were the method used for invoking additional specific response actions by OROs.

DHS/FEMA concurred with the offsite scenario and extent-of-play submission for the State of Minnesota, Sherburne and Wright Counties for the August 23, 2011 Biennial Radiological Emergency Preparedness Exercise for the MNGP.

The reactor has been at continuous operation for 98 days.

A few hours after a minor rod pattern adjustment was performed on the nightshift, operations personnel noticed a rising trend on the stack WRGMs. Chemistry was notified and sampling was conducted which indicated that a minor fuel defect had occurred. Currently, the cause of the failure is unknown. Power suppression testing to isolate the defect is being planned.

The reactor water cleanup influent sample obtained on the midnight shift indicated a reactor coolant 1-131 dose equivalent of 1.OE-3 uCi/gram.

12 CRD Pump has been isolated and disassembled to replace a leaking shaft seal. It is scheduled to return to service 8/25/11.

The electrical distribution system is in condition Green.

Reactor Coolant Sampling is in-progress.

Winds are from the East at 4- 5 mph. Temperature is in the mid 80's with noon time temperatures expected in the mid 90's.

Core Damage Frequency (CDF) is 1.98E-5 per year (YELLOW).

RCIC was taken out of service 8-22-11 for replacement of the RCIC Pump outboard bearing due to elevated vibration levels. This is day 2 of a 14-day LCO. The bearing replacement work has commenced and the new bearing has been installed.

Remaining work activities include torquing the bolts and putting the upper bearing cap on. It's estimated that it will take -2 hours to complete the remaining maintenance work once work recommences on dayshift.

The 'A' train of SBGT is out of service due to fan (#11) maintenance. This is day one of a 7-day LCO. The train is expected to be out of service for 3 days. A work order has been initiated and the work has commenced. Currently the job is on hold awaiting the delivery of a replacement part which is expected to arrive on site in the mid to late afternoon.

The midnight operating crew placed "A" loop Torus cooling in service to support upcoming RCIC testing. #11 Residual Heat Removal (RHR) and #11 Residual Heat Removal Service Water (RHRSW) pumps are in service.

13). Operators should reference C.4-B.05.09.B Main Steam Pressure Regulator Failure Causing Increasing Pressure and work through C4 procedures.

0910-0925 Sixty minutes after the declaration of the ALERT, the Technical Support Center (TSC), Operational Support Center (OSC), Access Control and the Emergency Operations Facility (EOF) should be manned and operating.

-0940 Walkdown of Intake Structure and Screen House is complete with affected equipment being secured.

A complete valve packing failure occurs on "B" outboard MSIV in the steam chase.

The packing failure results in steam chase tunnel temperatures increasing rapidly. As a result, the operating crew is expected to SCRAM the reactor to isolate the leak.

Upon reactor SCRAM both "B" steam line MSIVs (inboard and outboard) fail to close. The steam-chase blow-out panel remains intact. (Note: When MSIVs are given the close signal starts the 15 minute classification clock for the SAE.)

0940-0955 The ERO should classify and make declaration of the event as a SITE AREA EMERGENCY based on FSl.1 "Loss or Potential Loss of ANY Two Barriers (Table F-i)" The Table F-1 EAL criterion applicable are:

1. Reactor Coolant System Barrier Loss #3 - RCS Leak Rate

2. Primary Containment Barrier Loss # 3 - CNMT Isolation Failure or Bypass (MESSAGE #14: Site Area Emergency Contingency)

-1000 Shortly after the declaration of the SITE AREA EMERGENCY a plant/site evacuation should be initiated. (MESSAGE #15: Site Evacuation Siren Interject.)

Dosimetry issuance should commence in the OSC and TSC if not already performed.

0955-1010 The off-site notifications to the state and counties of the SITE AREA EMERGENCY should be completed.

-1015 LC-104 high temperature alarm is received in the Control Room. (MESSAGE # 16:

LC-104 Alarm Investigation)

-1030 Significant fuel failure begins. Vent and Stack release rates escalate rapidly. The Reactor Building Vent release readings increase from -300 to -70,000 pCi/Sec over the next 5-8 minutes. An increase in Area dose rates in steam and adjacent areas of the Reactor and Turbine Building occurs.

The Containment High Radiation Monitor readings begin increasing.

Operators should manually initiate SBGT at 9,000 pCi/SEC per ARP C-259-A-6.

-1054 The Containment High Range Radiation Monitor readings exceed 1800 R/Hr indicating the Loss of the Fuel Cladding Barrier. (Note: When the CHRRM reaches 1800 R/Hr starts the 15 minute classification clock for the GE.)
