Emer enc
Plannin
- Coordination with Offsite A encies
On Hay 7,, 1979, the licensee's
agreement with French Hospital to
accept possibly contaminated
patients
was confirmed by telephone.
The licensee
has coordinated
emergency
planning with the hospital
as described
in the emergency
plan.
On Hay 2, 1979, the hospital
participated in the licensee's
emergency
plan drill which included
the arrival of a simulated injured and contaminated
patient at the
hospital.
Ho items of noncompliance
or deviations
were identified.
3.
Emer enc
Plannin
- Tests
and Drills
P
On Hay 2,
1979,
the licensee
conducted
an emergency
plan drill.
The drill consisted of a series of radio messages
transmitted
from
the control
room to the San Luis Obispo County Sheriff's office as
a test of the communications
system
and to provide information to
local offsite agencies
to permit a test of the local offsite
agencies'mergency
response
plan.
This portion of the drill began
at 0800. consisted of nine messages
and terminated at 1230.
At
0900 the site emergency
signal
was
sounded
and nonessential
personnel
-2-
onsite
assembled
at designated
areas.
A single vehicle was
used to
simulate
a site evacuation.
At 1000 the San Luis Ambulance Service
was called to evacuate
a simulated
contaminated
victim from the-
site to French Hospital.
The notification concerning
the evacu-
ation of the victim included the Sheriff's office and French Hospital.
The victim was accompanied
by a member of the licensee's
radiation
protection staff.
At the conclusion of the drill, a critique was
conducted
by drill participants
and observers.
Problems identified
during the drill and discussed
at the critique included the following
items:
a.
The initial radio message
to the Sheriff's office conflicted
with the 0800 security force radio check schedule.
The licensee
confirmed receipt of the radio message
by the Sheriff's office
communications
center
by telephone.
b.
The normal radio traffic received
by the Sheriff's office
communications
center during the drill on some occasions
delayed
the transmission of messages
from the control
room.
c ~
The plant evacuation
was complete
and plant staff personnel.
were accounted for within ten minutes.
As a result of con-
fusion as to the proper handling of badges,
the accounting of
contractor
and general
construction
personnel
was not completed
f'r approximately fiftyminutes.
The actual
evacuation
occurred
in less
time but accounting for personnel
was
based
on empty
badge
board positions
and not all those individuals that
evacuated
turned in their badges
when they went to the assembly
area.
The drill was conducted
and the licensee organization
responded
in
accordance
with the licensee's
procedures.
The response
was co-
ordinated,
order ly and timely, with the exception of the personnel
accounting
problem previously noted.
The licensee
used specifically
designated
individuals; who participated in the post drill critique,
to evaluate
the licensee's
response.
It was noted that although
one of the drill messages
specifically
stated that the
HRC and California State
had
been notified,
these notifications were deliberately
not made.
No items of noncompliance or deviations
were identified.

Radiation Protection - Or anization
The licensee's staff of Radiation
and Process llonitors (RPM)
now
totals nine with two other technicians
to be added in the near
future.
Eight of the RPH's
have completed training.
The three
additions to the staff will be trained
as
a group.
No items of noncompliance
or deviations
were identified.
