5.2.1 Emergency Position and Team Descriptions [continued]
5.2.1.2 5.2.1.3 Emergency Communicator [continued]
The Emergency Communicator reports to the Station Emer-gency Manager in the Control Room prior to activation of the Technical Support Center (TSC), and in the TSC after its activation.
The duties of the Emergency Communicator are to transmit emergency messages to the Emergency Operations Centers of the counties contiguous to the 10-mile Emergency Planning Zone, to the State Office of Emergency and Energy Services (SOEES), and to the NRC, until the local Emergency Operations Facility (LEOF) is activated and manned.
The LEOF staff will then assume the responsi-bility for notification of the offsite authorities and agencies.
Other responsibilities of the Emergency Communicator include maintaining the Plant Status Board in the TSC and communications between the TSC and the LEOF.
Emergency Procedure Coordinator The position of Emergency Procedure Coordinator will be filled by the Supervisor Nuclear Training after augmen-tation of the onshift emergency organization.
In the event the Supervisor Nuclear Training is not available, the Coordinator Emergency Planning shall assume his responsibilities.

5.2.1.17 Dose Assessment Team [continued]
provide continued updates to the EOF regarding meteoro-logical conditions, process monitor readings, and sample analysis results.
Once the EOF is manned, the Dose Assessment Team Leader will report to the Radiological Assessment Coordinator in the EOF the results of the offsite releases and all dose projections to date.
The Dose Assessment Team Leader will also inform the Radiological Assessment Coordinator of the locations of the Offsite Monitoring Teams and of the current data received from these Teams
- 5.2.1.18 Offsite Monitoring Teams These Teams will report respectively to the Dose Assess-ment Team in the Technical Support Center, whenever appropriate, and to the Radiological Assessment Coordi-nator in the Emergency Operations Facility, once it is manned by augmentation of the onshift Emergency Organi-zation.
These Teams will provide offsite monit~ring and sample collection as directed by the Dose Assessment Taam or the Radiological Assessment Coordinator.
Once appropriate personnel arrive at the Station, each Team will have a Senior Health Physics Technician or a Health Physics Technician.
Each Team will consist of a Team Leader and a Team member.
The Team member will be a Health Physics Technician Trainee or an Assistant Health Physics Technician.
SEP Page 5.35 JUN 2 8 1984 5.4 Coordination with Participating Government Agencies (See Figure 5.3)
The State organization for response to radiological emergencies is based on normal governmental structures and channels of communication with the Governor in his role as Director of Emergency* Services directing the response through the State Coordinator of Emergency and, Energy Services.
The State Coordinator of Emergency and Energy Services coordinates the overall response and the Department of Health provides technical advice and assistance on radiological accident assessment, protective action, radiological control, and radiological monitoring.
Responsibility for radiological emergency response rests primarily with the elected officials of local governments.
As time is a major factor in realizing the benefits of immediate protective action in the event of a radiological. emergency,. certain of these actions are predetermined and agreed upon by the local governing body and are implemented without delay upon notification of a radiological*emergency.
A ringdown (secure-line).
communications system, continuously monitored by the Station Control Room, is used for normal transmission of emergency notifications to these authorities (See Section 7.2.2.5).
Procedures for authentication of an emergency via the use of restricted, unpublished call-back telephone numbers are maintained in state and local Radiological Emergency Response Plans should verification be desired.
When this notification is re-ceived, the State Radiological Emergency Response Plan is also imple-mented and the State Department of Health initiates action to assess and evaluate the radiological situation in order to provide guidance and assistance to local governments.
After the initial immediate action, subsequent protective actions are made based on the results of the State evaluation of the radiological situation and Vepco's recommendations.
