After Action ReportfImprovement Plan Arkansas Nuclear One EXECUTIVE

SUMMARY

On September 17, 2014, a biennial Radiological Emergency Preparedness (REP) Hostile Action Based Exercise was conducted in the plume exposure pathway emergency planning zone (EPZ) around Arkansas Nuclear One (ANO) located near Russellville, Pope County, Arkansas. The U.S. Department of Homeland Security/Federal Emergency Management Agency (DHS/FEMA)

Region VI evaluated the exercise. The purpose was to assess the level of preparedness of State and local responders to react to a simulated radiological emergency at ANO. This exercise was held in accordance with DHS/FEMA policies and guidance concerning the implementation of State and local radiological emergency preparedness plans and procedures.

The previous exercise at this site was a Plume Exercise conducted on April 11, 2012. The qualifying emergency preparedness exercise was conducted on October 1, 1980. There have been twenty-three evaluated exercises, including the exercise on September 17, 2014, plus several drills conducted since 1984.

DHS/FEMA Region VI wishes to acknowledge the efforts of the many individuals in the State of Arkansas, Pope, Yell, Logan, Johnson, and Conway Counties, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Forecast Office, KXRJ Radio Station, and surrounding jurisdictions who participated in this exercise. Protecting the public health and safety is the fulltime job of some of the exercise participants and an additional assigned responsibility for others. Still they have willingly sought this responsibility by volunteering to provide vital emergency services to their communities. Cooperation and teamwork of all the participants was evident during this exercise.

This report contains the final written evaluation of the biennial exercise. The state and local organizations, except where noted in this report, demonstrated knowledge of their emergency response plans and procedures and adequately implemented them. There were no Deficiencies, one Area Requiring Corrective Action (ARCA), which was corrected during the exercise, and one Plan Issue identified during the exercise. Also, one previous ARCA was resolved during the exercise.

ISSUE NO.: 01-14-3aI-A-01 CRITERION: The OROs issue appropriate dosimetry, KI, and procedures, and manage radiological exposure to emergency workers in accordance with the plans/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. Appropriate record-keeping of the administration of KI for emergency workers is maintained.

CONDITION: The emergency worker radiological briefing was inadequate.

POSSIBLE CAUSE: Possibly inadequate training of the County Radiological Officer and lack of procedural guidance for conducting radiological briefings

b. Develop and conduct training classes for all potential emergency workers. This training for emergency workers shall include, but not necessarily be limited to:

radiological monitoring procedures and methods, biological effects of radiation, anti-contamination procedures, contamination "hot line" procedures and personnel and equipment decontamination.

c. Provide annual training to the County Judge, EOC staffs, and warning point staffs EFFECT: Failure to conduct adequate radiological briefings to emergency workers, to include information on methods to minimize radiation exposure and information on the potential benefits and risks associated with radioprotective drugs, could result in increased risk to those workers due to excessive radiation dose or radioprotective drug reactions.

CORRECTIVE ACTION DEMONSTRATED: The performance deficiency was immediately corrected by radiological training provided by the Controller followed by a successful re-demonstration by the County Radiological Officer.

For long-term corrective action:

The individual(s) performing as the Johnson County Radiological Officer should be trained in the theoretical and practical aspects of radiological exposure control listed in Chapter 12 (Radiological Emergency Response Training) of the Johnson County Radiological Emergency Response Plan, to include the subject matter listed in Appendix 6 (Training Guidelines) to the Plan The Johnson County Standard Operating Procedures should include a procedure for the County Radiological Officer with a checklist for conducting radiological briefing of emergency workers who would deploy to the emergency planning zone. The checklist should include the following points as a minimum:

-Zeroing direct-reading dosimeters,

-Checking the direct-reading dosimeters periodically during an emergency response(e.g., every 15 to 30 minutes),

-Recording the readings of the direct-reading dosimeters on exposure record(s),

-Reporting radiation exposure limits and turn-back values,'

ISSUE NO.: 01-14-3al-P-02 CRITERION: The OROs issue appropriate dosimetry, KI, and procedures, and manage radiological exposure to emergency workers in accordance with the plans/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. Appropriate record-keeping of the administration of KI for emergency workers is maintained.

CONDITION: Pope County Annex 1 and the provided "Dosimeter Reading" cards incorrectly state onsite emergency responder exposure limits in rem instead of Roentgen (R).

POSSIBLE CAUSE: The error may have been an oversight or the individual responsible for Pope County Annex 1 and developing the "Dosimeter Reading" cards may not have been aware of the 5x conversion factor used to convert radiation exposure to radiation dose. The offsite radiation exposure limits on the "Dosimeter Reading" card were correctly provided in terms of mR.

REFERENCE:

NUREG 0654 K.3.a; Pope County Annex 1, Rev. 5.1; Arkansas Department of Health, Emergency Response Procedures, ER 2.5, Personnel Dosimetry and Exposure Guideline, Dated April 2014; Dosimeter Reading cards included in dosimetry kits.

EFFECT: Emergency workers and supervisors may be confused regarding the worker's radiation dose limit. The offsite exposure limits were provided in mR, the 19

Unclassified Radiological Emergency Preparedness Program (REP)

After Action Report/Improvement Plan Arkansas Nuclear One onsite limits provided in R.

If the Arkansas Department of Health exposure to dose conversion factor (5x) was used for onsite dose, the emergency worker would utilize a lower radiation exposure limit than intended. Because this would result in a conservative radiation dose limit, the emergency responder may not be able to complete his/her assigned task if they believe the 2 rem limit on the "Dosimeter Reading" card is to be adjusted for dose (by using an exposure limit of 400 rnR).

RECOMMENDATION: Update Annex 1 and Dosimeter Reading cards to correctly reflect the limits in terms of radiation exposure as read on the emergency worker's dosimeter and correctly stated in Arkansas Department of Health procedures.

ARCA: None EVALUATION AREA 4 Field Measurement and Analysis Sub-element 4.a - Plume Phase Field Measurements and Analyses INTENT This Sub-element is derived from NUREG-0654/FEMA-REP-1, which requires that OROs have the capability to deploy FMTs with the equipment, methods, and expertise necessary to determine the location of airborne radiation and particulate deposition on the .ground from an airborne plume. In addition, NUREG-0654/FEMA-REP-1 indicates that OROs must have the capability to use FMTs within the plume exposure pathway EPZ to detect airborne radioiodine in the presence of noble gases and radioactive particulate material in the airborne plume. In an incident at an NPP, the possible release of radioactive material may pose a risk to the nearby population and environment. Although incident assessment methods are available to project the extent and magnitude of a release, these methods are subject to large uncertainties. During an incident, it is important to collect field radiological data to help characterize any radiological release. Adequate equipment and procedures are essential to such field measurement efforts.

4.a.2: Fieldteams (2 or more) are managedto obtain sufficient information to help characterizethe release and to control radiationexposure. (NUREG-0654/FEMA-REP-1,C. I; H. 12; 1.7, 8, 11; J. lO.a)
