County Judge II
'I P-10-1 February 26, 2019 Revision 15
EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT DIRECTOR Procedure 10 1.0 Purpose 1.1 This procedure specifies the actions to be completed by the Emergency Managemei;it Director in the Matagorda County Emergency Operations Center (EOC) during a declared emergency at the South Texas Project Electric Generating Station (STPEGS).
1.2 This procedure implements the requirements of the Emergency Management Basic Plan for Matagorda County, Bay City, and Palacios and the Emergency Management Plan, Annex W, Fixed Nuclear Facility Response, specific to the Emergency Management Direc~or.
2.0 Discussion 2.1 The County Judge is the designated Emergency Management Director during emergency operations. An Emergency Commissioner appointed by Commissioner's Court will be present in the EOC, in the Judge's absence, to verify decisions regarding non-incorporated areas of the County.
2.2 The Emergency Management Director is responsible for ensuring initial and correct emergency response actions are taken when Matagorda County is notified of an emergency situation at the STPEGS. The response will depend on the severity of the incident based on the emergency classification declared.
2.3 In the event Matagorda County Dispatch office receives an Accelerated Phone Call based on a Hostile Action Based event, consider activating the Emergency Operations Center.
2.4 For the least severe classification of an Unusual Event, no response action by Matagorda County is expected unless support is requested by the STPEGS. Key County and City personnel will be notified by the Sheriffs Office Dispatcher.
2.5 For an Alert, the Emergency Management Director responds to the Matagorda County EOC, and ensures that key personnel are notified and available to respond to the EOC, if needed. Precautionary, limited staffing of the EOC by key personnel will be initiated. Further implementation of the Emergency Plan is at the discretion of the active Emergency Management Director.
2.6 For a Site Area Emergency or General Emergency, the EOC is to be activated,~and all Emergency Response personnel informed to report to their assigned locations.
P-10-2 February 26, 2019 Revision 15
EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT DIRECTOR Procedure 10
- 2. 7 The conditions and actions that occur during a radiological emergency are commonly referred as being in three phases; early, intermediate, and late.
- 2. 7 .1 Early phase: The beginning of a nuclear incident when immediate decisions for effective use of protective actions are required, usually based on the status of the facility and the prognosis for worsening conditions.
Protective actions based on the Protective Action Guidelines (P AG) may be preceded by precautionary actions during this. period .. Early phase actions include sheltering in place, evacuation, control of access, administration of KI, decontamination.
- 2. 7.2 Intermediate phase: Period beginning after the source of release has been brought under control and reliable environmental measurements are available. May overlap early and late phase and may last from weeks to months.
2.7.3 Late phase (recovery): Period beginning when recovery action designed to reduce radiation levels in the environment to acceptable levels for unrestricted use are commenced. This is the period beginning after the source of release h'.as been brought under control and environmental measurements* are available for use as a basis for decisions on protective actions and extending until these protective actions are terminated. This phase may last from weeks to months.
2.8 Recovery consists of several activities necessary to return to normal operations.
These include re-entry, restoration, return, relocation and as needed, temporary Buffer Zones. The implementation of these activities should be conducted in conjunction with the Department of State Health Services (DSHS) if radiological contamination exists in the environment. Procedure 22 to Appendix 7 of the State of Texas Radiological Emergency Management Procedures entitled "Recovery Operations" provides detailed guidance on conducting recovery operations.
NOTE Temporary Buffer Zones may be needed outside portions of the restricted zone in which occupants will not be allowed to return until monitoring confirms the stability of deposited contamination.
2.8.1 Re-entry refers to temporary entry ofindividual(s) into a restricted zone under controlled conditions.
2.8.2 Restoration refers to the process ofreducing exposure rates and concentrations in the environment to acceptable levels for unrestricted use.
2.8.3 Return refers to reoccupation of areas cleared for unrestricted residence or use by previously evacuated or relocated populations.
P-10-3 February 26, 2019 Revision 15
EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT DIRECTOR Procedure 10 2.8.4 Relocation refers to an action, taken in the post-emergency phase, through which individuals not evacuated during the emergency phase are asked to vacate a contaminated area to avoid chronic radiation exposure from deposited radioactive material.
2.9 Recovery can be declared when certain conditions are met. These include:
2.9.1 Notification from STPEGS that they are prepared to declare Recovery.
2.9.2 The potential for uncontrolled releases of radioactive material to the environment no longer exist.
2.9.3 The plume has dissipated and all significant deposits, if any, have subsided.
2.9.4 Protective actions that have been initiated (i.e., evacuation) are completed and declaring a Recovery would not complicate the actions underway by the public.
2.9.5 The State and Federal agencies that were activated to support the emergency response concur with the decision to enter Recovery.
2.10 Termination can be declared when the following conditions, as applicable~ are met:
2.10.1 All portions of the restricted zone have been surveyed, as necessary.
2.10.2 Work under the decontamination plan has been completed to a stage where continued effort does not appear to be cost effective.
2.10.3 Long-term exposures have been calculated for residences and places of employment where some significant potential for exposure continues to exist.
2.10.4 Occupancy or use limitations have been posted for all buildings and areas where continued restrictions are necessary.
2.10.5 Residents and workers have been afforded the opportunity to return to all areas for which restrictions have been lifted.
2.10.6 Relocation to permanent or long-term temporary facilities has been accomplished for those persons who could not be allowed to return following completion of work under the formal decontamination plan.
P-10-4 February 26, 2019 Revision 15
EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT DIRECTOR Procedure 10 NOTE Access control to restricted zones may be a continuing requirement, and environmental monitoring activities are likely to continue for many years following a major release ofradioactive materials. Periodically, as a result of weathering and radioactive decay, additional portions of the restricted zone will be eligible for release to unrestricted use. As this occurs, portions of the recovery organization may be temporarily reactivated on an as needed basis.
2.11 Precautionary protective actions for the public should be evaluated throughout the event. Considerations should be given to weather conditions, the potential for the situation to become more serious, public perception of the event, and the needs of special populations.
2.12 State assistance procedures require requests for State or Federal assistance be made by the Chief Executive, or by another official specifically authorized to perform the function in the name of the Chief Executive. In Matagorda County, the Emergency Commissioner may transmit such requests if the County Judge is not available.
2.13 An Emergency Alert System (EAS) Message gives direction to the public on actions that should be taken during an emergency, or may only direct the public to stand by for further information. Regular programming should be suspended and the message broadcast to the public as soon as the message.is received by the BAS source. The current BAS message should be broadcast at least every 15 minutes until a new message is received.
2.14 A News Advisory gives further information regarding the situation, or provides information that is not directly related to protective actions for the public. A news advisory may be transmitted to the public at the discretion of the Matagorda County BOC Officials.
2.15 Functional Needs populations are groups of individuals in need of assistance when protective actions are implemented.
- 2.16 Responsibilities of the Emergency Management Director include the following:
2.16.1 Direct operations of the local government and volunteer organizations.
2.16.2 Make emergency policy decisions and declare a state of emergency or.
disaster.
2.16.3 Approve and provide for emergency expenditures.
2.16.4 Request assistance from state, federal, and volunteer organizations and agencies.
P-10-5 February 26, 2019 Revision 15
EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT DIRECTOR Procedure 10 2.16.5 Provide for and authorize the release of information and instructions to the public.
2.16.6 Determine protective actions to be taken by the public based on recommendations from the STPEGS Emergency Director and/or the Department of State Health Services (DSHS).
2.16. 7 Approve radiological exposures for County emergency response personnel in excess of Department of State Health Services (DSHS) administrative limits, up to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) limits.
2.16.8 Approve the administration and use of Potassium Iodide (Kl) for County Emergency Workers.

GUIDELINES FOR EVACUEES ENTERING RECEPTION CENTER Attachment 5 (Page 1 of 1)
You are at an evacuee Reception Center. Our goal is to provide for your shelter and needs as long as the evacuation remains in effect, and to determine if you or your vehicle is contaminated with radioactive particles.
Ifymi have a pet, please stop by the Small Pet Decontamination area on your way to Station 2 so I your pet can be monitored. If they are found contaminated, you may be asked to provide assistance in washing your pet prior to placing them in a kennel for holding while you go through the monitoring and registration process.
As you enter the Reception Center, you will walk through the portal monitor. This will check you for radioactive contamination.
If you are not contaminated, you will be given a green slip and directed to the Matagorda County Reception Center Registration Area, where you will be registered and provided shelter if needed.
If you are contaminated, you will be given a red slip and directed to the shower area for
\ decontamination. At the shower area, trained staff will answer your questions, and assist you with decontamination process.
After decontamination, you will be given a green slip and directed to the Matagorda County Reception Center Registration Area where personal information will be taken. You will receive further instructions there, including transportation availability if your vehicle is contaminated.
