. ' As a result of our annual review of the OSTR Emergency Res)onse Plan, we a

.'would like to. report changes'to the plan which have been made, aut which do ';

.notd . ecrease the. emergency response effactiveness of the plan based on ~ our evaluation. A11l changes have been reviewed and approved by the OSTR Reactor

.0perations' Committee, and as you can see from the list given in.Attachement A, 't all  :

keep.of  : thethe planchanges current. involve' typographical In addition to the plancorrections itself, a numberor other minor changes to of changes '

were made to the Emergency. Response Plan Implementing Procedures (ERIPs) in i

order to keep them up to date with respect to personnel assignments and 3 ' telephone numbers.

To make it easy to update your copy (s) of the plan, replacement pages for the plan have been attached. Due to the fact that a new cover page was not issued with the' emergency plan changes transmitted to you in a letter dated July.17,1989, we are reissuing those pages along with the current changes.

p 'if you have concerns or questions about'the reported changes to the OSTR I Emergency Plan, please let me know. >

(,.) . beam ports, rotating rack and pneumatic transfer systems for experiments -

involving neutron radiography and neutron activation analysis. Radio-nuclides are produced for both research and class application, particularly

- classes in nuclear reactor chemistry, radiotracer techniques and other-

phases of radiochemistry. Puolic service is provid'ed through a number l of channels, including forensic neutron activation analysis services for- ,

law enforcements agencies and numerous public education programs. Although l

outside agencies and institutions are welcomed, a large percentage of the reactor users are from OSU.

The reactor is normally operated between 4 and 7 hours8.101852e-5 days <br />0.00194 hours <br />1.157407e-5 weeks <br />2.6635e-6 months <br /> a day every l

weekday, with the most usual power level being 1000 kW. The average energy output per year is approximately 40 MWD.

The objective of this emergency response plan is to provide a plan of action for coping with radiological ~ and other emergencies, and to mini-mize the consequences of such emergencies at the OSTR. The plan specifies emergency action levels for applicable classes of emergencies, in response to which relavant portions of this plan will be activated.

lhe Corva111s' Fire Department operates the area's only formal- ,

ambulance service and will provide transportation 'for injured '

and/or contaminated' personnel to the Good Samaritan Hospital in  ;

Corvallis. The decision as to the need to transport injured and/

or contaminated personnel to the Good Samaritan Hospital will be made by attending medical. personnel with advice from the Senior -,

~

Health Physicist.

i The Corvallis Fire Department also assists in the training of 1 OSTR personnel in the use of fire extinguishers and self-contained breathing apparatus.

-l City of Corvallis Police Department The City of Corvallis Police Department could be involved in an l t

emergency if it involves an OSTR ph/sical security intrusion alarm or, hostile crowds assembling outside the building. They may also A- assist the OSU Campus Police and Security force with monitoring i_) >

.and maintaining the security of the Radiation Center Complex during and after an emergency evacuation, as well as assisting with crowd and traffic control around the Radiation Center Complex. Noti-fication of incidents to the Police Department will be made by OSU Campus Police and Security.

This section describes the authorities, responsibilities and support  !

functions of nongovernmental agencies.

3.2.1 NON-OSU SUPPORT AGENCIES American Nuclear Insurers (ANI)

OSU Campus Police and Security The responsibilities of OSU Campus Police and Security during an emergency are to:

a) Respond in any emergency arising'from a bomb threat, 3 or a threatened or actual breach in physical security. l The Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) detailed in the ,

OSTR Physical Security Plan will be' followed in these r

, situations. This 50P contcins " Safeguards Information," )

exempt from public disclosure, andsis therefore not ia-cluded in this plan.

b) Monitor and maintain the security of- the Radiation Center Complex after any emergency evacuation. .

c c) Assist in crowd control cround the Radiation Center i Complex at all times. ,

d) Make announcements to assembled personnel over the loud-speaker systems installed on their vehicles.

e) Coordinate with other lew enforcement agencies, such '

e- as~the Corvallis Police Department.

[ : OSU Student Health Service Arrangements have been made for personnel with injury and/or con-tamination to go to the OSU Student Health Service. More severe injury cases will be directed to the Good Samaritan Hospital.  !

The decision as to where these affected personnel will be sent ,

will be made by the attending medical personnel with advice from  !

the Senior Health Physicist. Both locations have radiation moni-  ;

toring equipment, decontamination facilities and staff trained in dealing with contaminated or exposed patients.

L OSU Department of Information Arrangements have been made with the OSU Department of Information to assist with the coordination of all public relations aspects of an emergency, such as interfacing with the university faculty, staff and student body, the public, press, T.V. and other news media.

OSU Office of Environmental Health and Safety Arrangements have been made with the OSU Office of Environmental

( Health and Safety to provide assistance as needed regarding non-radiological hazardous materials.
