I Unclassified I Radiological Emergency. Preparedness Program After Action Report 2017 Turkey Point Nuclear Power Plant I Executive Summary I On February 22, 2107, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security/Federal Emergency Management Agency Region IV, Radiological Emergency Preparedness Program staff evaluated a full participation plume exposure pathway exercise for the Turkey Point Nuclear Power Plant.

I These evaluations also include out-of-sequence activities conducted January l 0 - 13 and January 25 - 27, 2017.

I The Turkey Point Nuclear Power Plant is operated by Florida Power and Light and is located in Miami-Dade County approximately 25 miles south of Miami on the shore of Biscayne Bay and 2 miles east of Homestead, F lorida. The Turkey Point Nuclear Power Plant 10-mile emergency I planning zone is div ided into l 0 emergency response areas and encompasses parts of Miami -

Dade and Monroe Counties.

The Federal Emergency Management Agency's overall objective of the exercise was to assess the level of State and local preparedness in coordinating and responding to an emergency at the Turkey Point Nuclear Power Plant. The purpose of this report is to analyze exercise results, I identify strengths to be maintained and built upon, identify potential areas for improvement, and support development of corrective actions.

I I This exercise was held in accordance with Federal Emergency Management Agency' s policies and guidance concerning the exercise of State and local radiological emergency response plans and procedures. FEMA evaluated this exercise using Homeland Security Exercise and I Evaluation Program methodology. The previous Federal evaluated exercise was conducted on February 25, 2015. The qualifying emergency preparedness exercise was conducted February l 0, 11 and 12, 1982.

I Officials and representatives from the State of Florida, Miami-Dade and Monroe Counties, U.S.

Coast Guard, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and Florida Power & Light as I well as numerous volunteers and other organizations participated in this exercise. These organizations demonstrated knowledge of their emergency response plans and procedures and successfully implemented them.

I Out of sequence activities included congregate care; school interviews, a relocation drill , and the local National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration interview for the emergency alert I system. All jurisdictions met their exercise objectives and demonstrated the corresponding Core Capabilities identified in Section 2.2 of this report. No Level 1 findings were identified during the exercise; however, the Federal Emergency Management Agency identified two level 2 findings. The first finding concerned the lack of contamination control by a radiological field I monitoring team member. The field team member was provided training during the demonstration and then demonstrated proper contamination control techniques, which resolved the finding. The second finding concerned the inability of the dose assessment specialist to I provide timely and accurate dose projections to the Bureau of Radiation Control operations officer. This finding was corrected during a May 24, 2017, drill at the St. Lucie Nuclear Power I 5 I

I U nc.lassified Radiological Emergency Preparedness Program I

After Action Report 2017 Turkey Point Nuclear Power Plant Plant where dose assessment staff succe,s~fully demons~rat~d .their: ability to perform I independent dose assessments.

Highlights of the exercise included effective communication and coordination between all I involved organizations resulting in a cohesive response and recovery team. I,>articipants in each organ.ization defi"!onstr~ted their i'1dividu~~re~ponsibilitie~ ,enabling successful demonstration of Core Capabilities. The demonstrated commitment of leadership in these organizations was I reflected through their staffs.

The Federal Emergency Management Agency wishes to acknowledge the efforts of the many individuals who participated in the exercise and made it a success. The pro~t'(SS~onal .ism. and I .

I teamwork of the participants was evident throughout all phases of the exeryise . .

I Unclassified I Radiological Emergency Preparedness Prograi;n After Action Report 2017 Turkey Point Nuclear Power Plant I Section 2: Exercise Design Summary I 2.1 Exercise Purpose and Design The Federal Emergency Management Agency administers the Radiological Emergency I Preparedness Program pursuant to the regulations found in Title 44 Code of Federal Regulations parts 350, 351, 352, 353 and 354. Title 44 Code of Federal Regulations part 350 codifies sixteen planning standards that form the basis for radiological emergency I response planning for state, tribal, and local governments impacted by the emergency planning zones established for each nuclear power plant site in the United States.

Nuclear Regulatory Commission regulations also codify the sixteen planning standards I for the licensee. Title 44 Code of Federal Regulations part 350 sets forth the mechanisms for the formal review and approval of state, tribal, and local government radiological emergency response plans and procedures by the Federal Emergency Management I Agency. One of the Radiological Emergency Preparedness Program cornerstones established by these regulations is the biennial exercise of offsite response capabilities.

During these exercises, affected state, tribal, and local governments demonstrate their I abil ities to implement their plans and procedures to protect the health and safety of the public in the event of a radiological emergency at the nuclear plant.

I The results of this exercise, together with review of the radio logical emergency response plans, and verification of the periodic requirements set forth in NUREG-0654/FEMA-REP-l , along with supplements, through the annual letter of certification and staff

'I assistance visits, enabled the Federal Emergency Management Agency to provide a statement with the transmission of this final after action report to the United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission, that the affected state, tribal, and local plans and I preparedness are : (l) adequate to protect the health and safety of the public living in the vicinity of the nuclear power facility by providing reasonable assurance that appropriate protective measures can be taken offsite in the event of a radiological emergency; and (2) capable of being implemented.

I The State of Florida formally subm itted the Radiological Emergency Response Plans for the Turkey Point Nuclear Power Plant to the Federal Emergency Management Agency, I Region IV on August 26, 1983. The Federal Emergency Management Agency approved the plans pursuant to 44 Code of Federal Regulations 350 on February 15, 1984. The qualifying emergency preparedness exercise was conducted on February 10, I I and 12, I 1982.

2.2 Exercise Core Capabilities and Objectives I Core Capabilities-based planning allows for exercise planning teams to develop exercise objectives and observe exercise outcomes through a framework of specific action items.

I Using the Homeland Security Exercise and Evaluation Program methodology, the exercise objectives meet the Radiological Emergency Preparedness Program I *11 I

I Each jurisdiction and functional entity was evaluated based on the demonstration of Core Capabilities, capability targets and critical tasks and the underlying radiological emergency preparedness criteria as delineated in the Federal Emergency Management I Agency Radiological Emergency Preparedness Program Manual dated January 2016.

Exercise criteria are listed by number, and the demonstration status of those criteria are indicated by the use of the following terms:

I

  • M: Met (no unresolved level I or level 2 findings assessed and no unresolved findings from prior exercises)

I

  • 1: Level I finding assessed 2: Level 2 finding assessed or an unresolved level 2 finding(s) from a prior exercise
  • P: Plan issue I
  • N: Not demonstrated 3.2 Summary Results of Exercise Evaluation I The Homeland Security Exercise and Evaluation Program evaluation methodology is an analytical process used to assess the demonstration of specific capabilities during an I exercise. A capability provides a means to perform one or more critical tasks under specified conditions and to specific performance standards. Core Capabilities form the foundation of the Federal Emergency Management Agency Region IV Radiological I Emergency Preparedness Program evaluations. The Core Capability summaries below provide an overall combined assessment of state and local jurisdictions based upon their collective demonstrated performance as it relates to the specific Core Capability. Each I jurisdiction's standalone capability summaries are listed in Section 3.3 of this report.

Operational Coordination: Key leadership personnel from the participating agencies I established and maintained a unified and coordinated operational structure, which provided effective and coordinated direction and control. The overall decision-making process integrated critical stakeholders, enabling protective action discussions and I subsequent decisions to be made in a reasonable and timely manner.

After Action Report 2017 Turkey Point Nuclear Power Plant Situational Assessment: Florida State dose assessment personnel assessed radiological I and plant conditions to prepare decision-relevant information for the decision makers.

However the Bureau of Radiation Control dose assessment specialists did not provide the operations officer with ti mel y and accurate dose projections, therefore Bureau of

  • I Radiation Control personnel did not demonstrate the abili ty to independently assess the radiological emergency The emergency response coordinator (Department of Health Bureau of Radiation Control) effectively discussed the rad iological release and the recommendations for protective actions with the county decision makers at the I

emergency operations faci lity. The decision makers made**appropriate decisi ons based on the information they were provided. The Bureau of Radiation Control demonstrated their ability to provide timely and accurate dose projections during a May 24, 2107 ddl'l at the I

St. Lucie Nuclear Plant.

Public Information and Warning: Alert and notification of the public was made using I

simulated siren activation, emergency alert system messag s, route alerting and reverse calling software. This was followed by supplemental media releases and formal media briefings .in the joint information 'center. Thr ugh these processes, public information I

staff prepared and deli vered coordinated, prompt, and ret;able information and instructions to the public and media. I Environmental Response/Health and Safety: Department of Health Bureau of Radiation Control provided appropriate staff and resources to suppott the response. They demonstrated the positioning and management of field monitoring teams and provided I

appropriate instructions for emergency worker exposure control. The field team members demonstrated proficiency in us ing monitoring equipment and exposure control equipment.

  • One team did not demonstrate proper contamination control procedures. The I

individual received training by the controller and was subsequently able to demonstrate proper contamination control techniques. Field team members also demonstrated their ability to safely exit the potentially contaminated area.

I On Scene Security, Protection *and Law Enforcement: The Miami-Dade County Public School Police Department successfully demonstrated their ability to establish I

traffic control potnts to ensure a safe and secure environment for students, parents and residents of Miami-Dade County as it relates to an incident at Turkey Point Nuclear Power Plant. An.incident command post was established to manage officers manning I

traffic control points located around relocating public schools inside the planning zone and their paired relocation school outside the planning zone . . The exercise also demonstrated escorting of busses to *the paired schools.

I Critical Transportation: Miami-Dade County emergency management officials successfully demonstrated the capability to safeguard students and faculty i'n the event of I

an emergency during a series of separate interviews with 22 schools in the Miami-Dade County Public Schools the week of. l 0 January 2017. *The schools' leadership was consistent in their high levels of knowledge and preparedness in implementing I

Bureau of Radiation Control dose assessment specialists did not provide I the operations officer with timely and accurate dose projections. Other Bureau of Radiation Control personnel ensured field teams were appropriately deployed, monitored discussion of plant conditions, and kept Bureau of Radiation Control personnel in other I locations updated on current.conditions.

I b. Level 2.Finding: 66-l 7-2.b. l-L2-.02 I Criterion: 2.b.1 Condition: The Florida Department of Health, Bureau of Radiation Control dose assessment specialists did not provide*their operations officer with timely and accurate I dose projections. The operations officer therefore had to rely only on utility dose projections when making protective action recommendations regarding evacuations and decisions regarding the administration of potassium iodide.

I Bureau of Radiation Control staff arrived at tl:;ie Emergency Operations Facility at 0935.

The dose assessment specialists prepared a computer to run RASCAL 4.3 and began I entering data such as meteorological conditions.

  • The utility recover,y manager announced at I 026 that the plant was about to go to general emergency. The operations officer directed the dose assessment specialists to get a source term (radiological release rates)

I from the utility dose assessors. The dose assessment specialists had not yet completed a dose projection based on plant conditions at that time. They had gotten an error earlier while trying to perform a calculation and stated they were starting the RASCAL run from I scratch.

The operations officer attended a briefing at J.041 led by the utility recovery manager for I state and county decision makers. During the meeting, the utility radiation protection manager provided a :dose projection showing protective action guides for total.effective dose equivalent and committed dose equivalent to the thyroid were exceeded at two miles I from the plant. He also stated that a utility air sample two miles from the plant detected radioactive iodine concentrations that would result in four rem per hour committed dose equivalent,, The operations officer relied on the utility dose projection and air sample I analysis when concurring with the utility protective action recommendation to evacuate out to two miles in all sectors and five miles in the downwind sectors.

I I 25 I

I Unclassified After Action Repqrt Radi_ological Emergency Preparedness Program 2017 Turkey Point Nuclear Power Plant I

Bureau of Radiation Control Standard Operating Procedure 20 states the"'use of I potassium iodide has been pre-approved by the State Surgeon General for the general pub Iic . .Based on actual releases of radioactive iodine, if the actual or projected thyroid dose from radioactive iodine is> 5 Rem the Bureau .of Radiation Control Operations Officer will authorize the distribution of potassium iodide. Counties can then implement I

their own plans for dispensing potassium iodide. " Although the utility projection (for a two-hour projected release) showed committed dose equivalent thyroid above five rem at two miles, the operations officer did not authorize potassium iodide for the public.

I According to The State of Flodda R~diological Emergency Preparedness Plan, there are no residents within two miles of the plant and six residents* in the affected downwind secto.rs withiµ .thr.ee mil~s of the plant. Those residents:wer.e ordered to evacuate.

I After the brie,ij.ng h,ad ended. One of the dose.assessment special ists presented the operations officer with a RASCAL dose projecti.on .based on cer.tain worst-case I

parameters (total containment failure and unfiltered release) . .T\le projection showed the committed dose equivalent protective action guide exceeded p(}st 15 miles and the total effective dose equivalent protective action guide exceeded past l 0 miles. They discussed I

why the~e assumptions would give* high dose proj,e~tions. Subsequent d@se projections by the utility shp\.\o'.ed decreasi,n,g dose , proj~ctions (less. than protective action* guide levels

. at 2 miles). . , . , .. .

I At 1100, the operations officer directed the dose assessment specialists to,use th,e source term from the latest utility projection to perform a RASCAL projection. Due to I

unfamiliarity with the. utility dos.e projection form , the dose assessment specialists had difficulty figuring out what sourc.e.term inputs to use. Following prompting by the evaluator, the dose assessment specialists entered the.correct values for noble gas, iodine, I

and particulate release rates.listed on the utility form. However, they entered the iodine release rate as "I-131 equivalent" rather than total iodine. They comp leted their projection at 1141. While the total effective dose equivalent projections were very close I

to the utility projections, the committed dose equivalent projections were about five times the utility projections and showed t,he committed dose equivalent protective *action guide exceeded out past 7 miles. At the prompting of the operations officer, the dose I

. assessment specialists discussed various parameters with the utility dp;;e assessors. They did not determine why the projections differed.

I The dose assessment specialists calculated one more dose projection in RASCAL, shortening the release time to 10 minutes. One ofthe ,dose asse,ssment spe<;:ialists stated (incorrectly) that since the containment pressure had initially dropped quickly to normal I

atmospheric pressure, the release must have ,onl,y lasted <;i few.minutes, At no time during the exercise did the dose assessment sp.ecialists use ,data from utility I

field team measurements to calculate a dose projection.

I 26 I

I

I Unclassified I Radiological Emergency Preparedness Program After Action Report 2017 Turkey Point Nuclear Power Plant I Possible Cause: The dose assessment specialists were not knowledgeable enough about potential release pathways to properly calculate a dose ;projection based on plant I * *conditions. They also did not understand some of the inputs required to calculate a dose projection based on release rates. They were unfamiliar with the way some data was presented on the utility dose assessment form .

  • Effect: Inaccurate dose projectidns could result in inappropriate protective action I decisions. The inability of the state to produce timely and accurate 'dose* projecti'ons resulted in a reliance by decision makers on dose projections provided by the utility.

I Recommendations:

. 1. Provide additional training to dose assessment specialists 6n the use of RASCAL.

I 2. Develop an ongoing program to hold joint training and drills with the BRC dose assessment staff and the utility dose assessment staff.

Public information officers and staff from the State ofFloriaa, Miami-Dade and Monroe I counties successfully*integrated into an effective team, They developed and disseminated accurate and timely emergency public information in respons~ to a simulated *emergency at the Turkey Point Nuclear Power Plant.

I i ,,

The Joint Information Center was activated i11 accordance with,established procedures following the Alert .declaration by the *licensee. In accordance with the extent-of-play I agreement, pre-positioned State and county public in.formation officers and support staff reported after receiving prescribed notifications. * * '"

I The Joint-information Center-was a purposefully-designed facility with sufficient administrative resources and redundant communication capabilities and supplies to support emergency operat'ioris. Internet connected <i:bmputers served as*the primary means qf information sharing arrd communication between-the Joint Information Center I staff and their respective home jurisdictions.: Both dommercia:lfandlines a11d cellular telephone-s*were*used as alternate *forms of communicat<ion.* Minor internet connectivity issues were quickly resolved and did not impede operations.

  • I The process for preparing and distributing press releases varied among the agencies in accordance with their plans and procedures. Coordination with their respective home I jurisdictions was excellent~ however, coordination between the public information staffs within the Joint Information Center took place only after the press releases were prepared. No evidence of joint development of emergency informatiort and instructions I was observed.

Collectively, fifteen press releases were distributed within the Joint Information Center.

I All published products contained accurate, timely, and useful information containing the essential elements required by prescribing directives.

I The pub I ic information staff also participated in two formal media briefings following the Alert and General Emergency declarations. In both instances, the tim.ing of the media briefings coincided with changes in the emergency classification levels, creating minor I inconsistencies in messaging. During the first media *bri'efing, the licensee announced the emergency classification level as Site Area Emergency while the State of Florida maintained its prearranged script for Alert. As the second inedia'briefing* began, county I public information officers had not received formal approval from their home jurisdictions to announce protective aetions consistent with a General Enrergency. This approval was received during the media briefing and quickly provided to the Miami-Dade I County public information officer. She adapted to the interruption and subsequent I 37 I
