St. Louis, MO 63166 Gentlemen:
We have received the enclosed Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) letter and associated exercise report dated January 22, 1990, transmitting the FEMA Region VII report for the October 11, 1989 full participation exercise at the i
Callaway Nuclear Power Plant. The State of Missouri and the Counties of Callaway, Gasconade, Montgomery and Osage fully participated.
Four d6ficiencies were identified for Callaway County. These were corrected 1
through appropriate plan and/or procedural changes.
Based on its review of the exercise report and scheduled corrective actions, FEMA considers.that i
. offsite radiological emergency preparedness is adequate to provide reasonable assurance that appropriate measures can be taken offsite to protect the health and safety of the public living in the vicinity of the site in the event of a radiological emergency. As a-result, the approval of offsite emergency preparedness under FEMA Rule'44 CFR 350 will remain in effect.
In accordance with 10 CFR 2.790 of the Commission's regulations, a copy of this letter and the enclosure will be placed in the NRC's Public Document Room.
Sincerely, m

w EXERCISE
SUMMARY
The purpose of an exercise is to determine the ability of covered appropriate off-site agencies to respond to an emergency by State and Local Radiological Emergency Response Plans.
The evaluation of such an effort will, of necessity, tend to focus on the. negative aspects of the exercise, on inadequacies in plan-i ning, preparedness and performance.
P This focus of attention on the negative should not be taken i
to mean that there were not a great many positive accomplish-
- ments, as well.
Indeed, there were; however, in the interest of brevity, only inadequacies will herein be summarized.
FEMA classifies exercise inadequacies as deficiencies or ar-eas requiring corrective action.
Definitions of these categories follow.
Deficiencies are demonstrated and observed inadequacies'that would cause a finding that off-site emergency preparedness was not adequate to provide reasonable assurance that appropriate protective measures can be taken to protect the health and safety of the public living in the vicinity of a nuclear power facility in the event of a radiological emergency.
Areas recuirina corrective action are demonstrated and ob-served inadequacies of State and local government performance, and although their correction is required, they are not tonsid-
- ered, by themselves, to adversely impact public health and safety.
In addition, FEMA identifies areas recommended for imorove-which are problem areas observed during an exercise that
- ment, are not considered to adversely impact public health and safety.
While not
- required, correction of these would enhance an organization's level of emergency preparedness.
It should be noted that there is a distinction between fail-to fully demonstrate an objective and the declaration of an ure inadequacy.
Limitations imposed by an exercise scenario, or the choice of one response option over another could preclude a full demonstration, yet, not constitute an inadequacy.
MISSOURI OPERATIONS Evaluation of this exercise resulted in four deficiencies and sixteen areas requiring corrective action as set forth below.
i vi
e i !
~
State Emercancy Operations center (SEOC) t of the six objectives planned for demonstration, all but two were fully demonstrated.
The two areas requiring corrective ac-tion pertained to Objectives Number 5 and 13.
Objective Number 5 was inadequately demonstrated due to a
failure to post on the status board those protective actions ac-tually implemented.
Objective Number 13 was inadequate due to a failure to re-i lease two Osage County EBS messages in a timely manner.
'The re-leases were delayed when other non-priority issues were allowed to take precedence over the issuance of protective actions.
i State Forward Command Post All eight objectives planned for this facility were fully demonstrated with no inadequacies.
Egle Assessment and Field Team Coordination Nine objectives were planned for demonstration, with this i
function being conducted at the EOF.
No inadequacies were ob-served, as all objectives were fully demonstrated.
Field Monitorina Team i
Six objectives were planned for demonstration.
Though no inadequacies were observed, Objective Number 2, activation and staffing, was not credited with full demonstration since only one field team was deployed.
In the future, at least two field teams
+
will be required for exercise demonstration.
Radiolocical Laboratorv All three objectives were fully demonstrated, with no inad-equacies observed.
Joint Public Information Center Six objectives were planned for demonstration.
Five were fully demonstrated; one was inadequately demonstrated and is an area requiring corrective action.
Objective Number 5, was inadequately demonstrated due to a
failure to maintain both status boards in a timely manner.
In
- addition, at times, the boards reflected differing off-site con-ditions.
vii
r.
i c
CQUNTY OPERATION 8 Callaway Countv/Fulton Raercenev Operations Center Thirteen objectives were planned for demonstration; eight were fully demonstrated and five were inadequately demonstrated.
l These inadequacies resulted in four deficiencies and four areas requiring corrective action.
The first deficiency resulted from the fact that it required 49 minutes to write and release the protective actions called for at the General Emergency.
This lack of timeliness was attributed to a failure to utilize prewritten landmark descriptions.
The second deficiency resulted when the County failed to no-tify Riverview Nursing Home to evacuate.
The third deficiency resulted when the County failed to no-tify South callaway School to evacuate.
The fourth deficiency is rooted in the use of North callaway High School as a temporary relocation center without the proper provisions.
The first area requiring corrective action (ARCA) occurred when the Director called for the evacuation of the entire EPZ within Callaway County except for the City of Fulton.
Evacuation to this extent was not warranted.
The second ARCA resulted from the issuance of two EBS mes-sages which omitted three subsectors and some information regard-ing evacuation routes.
The third ARCA resulted when the Sheriff assigned the same car to two access control points, and, after discovering the er-
- ror, did not correct it for over an hour.
There was also uncer-tainty regarding whether or not Sheriff's deputies could permit reentry to an evacuated area for essential purposes.
The fourth ARCA was also related to access
- control, and stems from the fact that access control points shown on maps do not agree with those described in Implementing Procedure 1,
i Supplement 2.
Fulton School Dis'trict 458 - Bush School Four objectives were planned for demonstration.
Three were done l
fully.
Objective Number 6, exposure control, was not adequately demonstrated.
When the driver referred to his instruction card to verify his dose limit, it was not listed.
The ARCA calls for 1
viii
{
e i
bus driver instruction cards to be amended to include information on dose limits and reporting procedures.
casconade County noC Nine objectives were to be demonstrated.
There were no in-adequacies and all objectives were fully demonstrated, though ob-l jectives Number 6, 11, and 13 were limited in content, as the County was not affected by the plume.
I Gasconade County Recention and Care Center There were eight objectives scheduled for demonstration.
No inadequacies were observed as all objectives were fully demon-strated.
Evacues and Emercancy Worker Monitorinc and Decontamination Hearnes Center This demonstration was held at the Gasconade County Recep-l tion and Care Facility instead of the Hearnes Center.
It was in-tended to provide an opportunity for the monitoring staff to rectify five areas requiring corrective action from the previous exercise.
All monitoring and decontamination procedures were ad-equately demonstrated, fully accounting for all five areas re-quiring corrective action.
Jefferson City Reception and Care 1
At a previous exercise, the center manager position did not demonstrate a
second shift.
This person was allowed to do a
shift change at the Gasconade County Reception and Care Center.
This was successfully accomplished, fully accounting for this area requiring corrective action.
Montcomery County Emercency operations Center Nine objectives were planned for demonstration.
All were fully demonstrated.
However, objectives Number 6, 11 and 13 were limited in extent since the plume did not affect Montgomery County.
Osace County Emercancy operations Center Sixteen objectives were planned for demonstration.
Six were not adequately demonstrated, resulting in the following six areas requiring corrective action.
Activation calls were made by the County Commissioner in-stead of the dispatcher, as the Plan dictates.
ix
y 0
A church van used to evacuate disabled persons was not among
~
the resources listed in the Plan, nor was the driver properly trained or equipped for appropriate exposure control measures.
At the Site Area Emergency, the dispatcher sounded the si-rens without obtaining prior approval from the County Commis-sioner, as the Plan stipulates.
In providing transportation for the mobility impaired, one person who had been identified was omitted from the simulated pickup list.
The Plan requires notification of special facilities at the Alert.
Chamois school was not called until 39 minutes after the Site Area Emergency.
Standard operating Procedure Number 1, must be amended to clarify that access control must be established when sheltering is called for as well as during evacuation.
osace R-1 School In demonstrating school evacuation procedures, it was ob-
's served that each bus did not have a dosimetry kit.
This is an area requiring corrective action, callaway county F=hulance were successfully Four objectives were scheduled, and all demonstrated with no inadequacies observed, callaway county Hospital of the two objectives demonstrated, one will require correc-tive action.
This resulted from the presence and assistance of a health physicist from Union Electric, when the Plan requires that the Hospital provide this capability.

INTRODUCTION j
1.1 EXERCISE BACEGROUND On December 7,
- 1979, the President directed the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) to assume lead responsibility for all off-site nuclear planning and response.
FEMA's responsibilities in radiological emergency planning for fixed nuclear facilities include the following:
Taking the lead in off-site emergency planning and in the review and evaluation of radiological emergency response plans developed by State and local governments.
Determining whether such plans can be implemented on the basis of observation and evaluation of exercises of the plans developed by State and local governments.
- Coordinating the activities of the following Federal agen-cies with responsibilities in the radiological emergency planning process:
- U.S.
Department of Commerce (DOC)
- U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC)
- U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
- U.S. Department of Energy (DOE)
- U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS)
- U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)
- U.S. Public Health Service (PHS)
- U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT)
- U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA)
- U.S. Department of the Interior (DOI)
Representatives of these agencies serve as members of the Regional Assistance Committee (RAC), which is chaired by FEMA.
Formal submission of the radiological emergency response plans for the callaway Nuclear Power Plant (CNPP) to the RAC by the State of Missouri and affected local jurisdictions was fol-lowed by a critique and evaluation of these plans.
A joint radiological emergency preparedness exercise was conducted.for CNPP on March 21, 1984, to assess the capability of State and local emergency preparedness organizations to:
(1) implement their radiological emergency preparedness plans and procedures, and (2) protect the public during a
radiological emergency at the callaway Nuclear Power Plant.

o 9
During the March 21, 1984 exercise, the State failed to dem-onstrate the ability to promptly alert the public, and to effee-tively coordinate the development and release of protective action recommendations.
Also, Callaway County was unable to dem-onstrate
)
the capability to adequately and effectively sound si-i rens in the EPZ.
These failures necessitated a remedial exercise which was successfully conducted on April 19, 1984, t
A second exercise was conducted on June 5, 1985.
The 1986 exercise was conducted on July 30, and was classi-fled a full scale exercise with all State and local jurisdictions participating.
The 1987 exercise was not evaluated.
The June 6, 1988 exercise was a partial scale exercise and was conducted off-hours.
The October 11, 1989 exercise was classified as full scale with all State and local jurisdictions participating and was con-ducted during normal working hours.
1.2 EXERCISE EVALUATORS i

1.5 EXERCISE SCEMARIO The plant is operating at 100% power.
The plant has been on-line for 140 days.
Total Core IV Equivalent Full power Days (EFPD)-is 128.
At1about 0330, the on-line Chemical and Volume
't Control System (CVCS) letdown demineralizer severely overheated and didn't automatically isolate from the Reactor Coolant System (RCS).
As a result, Chemistry has been trending increasing RCS activity and chlorides.
At
- 0720, Chemistry reports that chlorides in the RCS have exceeded the Action 3 limit and the operating crew should com-mence a plant shutdown.
4 At
- 0735, an. earthquake occurs causing a
loss of the Cal-Bland transmission line, several plant equipment failures and varying damage to off-site areas in the EPZ.
The Shift Supervi-sor declared an ALERT and activated the On-site Emergency Organi-zation.
The transmission line surveillance airplane crashes into the Montgomery Switchyard causing both Montgomery /Callaway lines-to trip resulting in a
loss of off-site AC pouar and a
reactor / turbine trip.
After automatic start, the only available.
emergency diesel generator trips off and catches fire.
The loss of the diesel results in a total loss of AC power.
RCS leakage increases through the reactor coolant pump seals due to the loss of seal injection.
The Medical Emergency Response Team (MERT) is dispatched to provide-care to an equipment operator overcome. by smoke at the diesel fire.
A SITE AREA EMERGENCY is declared.
based on loss of all AC power for more than 15 minutes -and all Emergency Organizations are activated.
The turbine-driven auxiliary feed pump trips and causes a
loss of all steam generator feedwater.
A GENERAL EMERGENCY is declared and a Protective Action Recommendation of shelter 2 mile radius and 5 miles downwind is made to the Missouri State Depart-ment of Health, Division of Radiological Health.
Increasing radiation levels in the Auxiliary Building and
-Unit Vent indicate the release of radioactive material to the en-vironment.
Investigation reveals the leakage from containment through a damaged piping penetration.
Following clearance of the fault on the Cal-Bland line or repair of diesel generator NE01, the operating crew restores power to' one vital AC bus and begins restoring the plant to a
stable condition.
When an emergency repair team successfully re-pairs the damaged penetration, the release is stopped.

2 EXERCISE EVALUATION i
- j 2.1 MISSOURI STATE OPERATIONS 2.1.1 State Emercency Operations Center (SEOC) 4 Tha following objectives were planned for demonstration:
1, I
2, 3,
4, 5,
12, 13, and 20.
In addition, an area requiring cor-rective action from the last exercise called for a demonstration of new procedures regarding communication with FEMA during an ex-l ercise.
Objective. Number 1, the ability to monitor, understand and.
use emergency classification levels, _was fully demonstrated 3
throughout the conduct of the exercise.
Objective Number 2, the ability.to fully alert,
- mobilize, and_ activate personnel for both facility and field based emer-gency functions, was fully demonstrated.
At- 0752, the-SEOC received notification that an Alert. had been declared.
Mobilization of staff began immediately and calls were completed'at 0817.
By 0808, sufficient key personnel were present to declare the SEOC operational.
At 0826, the SEMA staff who comprised the Forward Command Post (FCP) deployed to the Emergency Operations Facility (EOF).
Objective Number 2
was fully demonstrated.
Objective Number 3, the ability to direct, coordinate, and control emergency activities, was fully demonstrated.
Briefings were held, and appropriate staff were involved in decision-making.
Incoming and outgoing messages were
- logged, i
copied and distributed to the proper persons.
In addition, they contacted FEMA at appropriate times, demonstrating their new op-erating procedures for this function.
This satisfied an area re -
quiring corrective action from the last exercise.
Objective Number 4, the ability to communicate with all ap-propriate' locations, organizations and field personnel, was fully demonstrated through the use of primary and backup communication devices.
Objective Nu'mber 5, the adequacy of facilities, equipment,
- displays, and other materials to support emergency operations,
-was not adequately demonstrated.
This inadequacy resulted from a failure to post, update and track protective action decisions.
The status board clearly provides for recording both the protec-tive action recommendations, and, where they differ, the protec-tive actions actually decided upon for implementation.
This 7
3-would have shown how the implemented protective actions differed' from the protective action recommendations issued for Callaway-County.
This lack of posting.and tracking of protective action decisions. is an area that will require corrective action at the next exercise.
Objective Number 12, the ability to initially alert the pub--
lic within the plume EPZ and begin dissemination of an instruc-tional-message within 15 minutes, was fully demonstrated.
At
- 0820, the State Highway Patrol (SHP) representative at the SEOC called the airport to place the Highway Patrol pilot on standby so he would be prepared to perform aerial alerting on the i
Missouri ~ River.
At 0918, the Site Area Emergency was announced ever the dedicated line.
The pilot was immediately notified.
(Actual aerial alerting was not required at this exercise.)
At 0926, the EBS Coordinator called the Counties and advised them to sound the sirens.
He then called the EBS station and arranged for the release of message number 2, announcing the emergency and advising people to stay tuned.
The SHP dispatched two roving patrols within the 2 mile ra--
dius at 0955.
When that area was evacuated, they assisted with access control (simulated).
This limited activity constituted demonstration of Objective Number 20, access control.
Objective Number 13, the ability to coordinate the. formula-tion and dissemination of accurate information and instruction to the public in a timely manner after the initial alert and notifi-cation.has
- occurred, was not adequately demonstrated.
This failure to demonstrate was telated to the " timeliness" portion of the objective and occurred on two separate occasions.
The first happened at 1112, when Osage County requested that the EBS Coordinator release message number 7 to the EBS. station.
The message announced that students from Chamois school were be-ing evacuated to Jefferson City.
At 1205, the Forward' Command Post issued a status update over the conference line.
There was no mention of the Chamois school evacuation, so at 1212, Osage County asked the EBS Coordinator about the previously requested release of message 7.
At this time, the Coordinator became aware
-of the omission, and released the message to EBS at 1215.
The total time was 63 minutes.
The second event occurred at 1125, when the Coordinator re-ceived a request from Osage County to issue message 8 announcing sheltering from 5 to 10 miles in sectors H, J, and K.
Instead of immediately roleasing the message, the coordinator called Gascon-ade County to advise them that their request for an EBS message regarding ' dairy cattle was inappropriate and should be handled through local channels.
(The County Extension agent handles this by direct contact with dairy farmers.)
8 l
i
- 3.,.
s
}
9 At'1129,
.the. coordinator called.the FCP and advised them of the difficulty with Callaway County landmark descriptions.
At!1131,.the Coordinator then called Callaway County to'de-j termine how they would handle the new PARS which were announced It was not until 1140 that he called the EBS station to at 1111..
broadcast the Osage county message regarding sheltering from-5 to.
]
10 miles in sectors.H, J. and K.
ac-
)
-This failure to give immediate priority to a protective tion
- message, along with'the 63 minutes to issue the Chamois school evacuation message, constitute a failure to demonstrate objective Number 13.
This is an area requiring corrective action-at the next exercise.
! Summary:
An inadequacy from the last-exercise regarding demonstration of procedures to contact FEMA with details of the accident was corrected.
Objectives fully demonstrated were:
1, 2,
3, 4, 12 and 20.
5 and 13.
Objectives not adequately demonstrated were:
. Areas Recuirina Corrective Action
~
1.
There was a failure to post on the status board those pro-tective actions actually implemented.
The status board clearly had a category for this information.
' Posting and updating both protective action recommendations and protec-tive > actions actually implemented must be demonstrated at the next exercise to correct Objective Number 5.
Dissemination of protective action instructions to the pub-2.
/
lic via EBS was not accomplished in a timely manner.
The failure to demonstrate Objective Number 13 occurred when re-lease of two EBS messages requested by Osage County was un-duly delayed.
At 1112, Osage County asked to release an EBS message regarding evacuation of Chamois' School.
It.was not done until 1215.
At 1125, Osage County called for shelter-ing in H, J, and K from 5 to 10 miles.
The message was not released until 1140.
The elapsed time of 15 minutes is not considered timely due to the fact that release of the mes-sage was delayed by other, less important activities which-should not have taken priority over a protective action in-struction.
Timely release of all EBS messages will be an area requiring corrective action at the next exercise.
2.1.2 State Forward Command Post (FCP)
This function was performed at the EOF and operates in co-ordination with Missouri Department of Health, Bureau of Radio-logical Health.
9
t
. Objectives to be demonstrated were:
1, 2, 3,
4, 5,
6, 11, y
and 33.

A 24-hour roster was available.
Logs'of all incoming and outgoing communications were kept periodic briefings were held and protective action decisions were, coordinated, fully demonstrating Objective Number 3, the ability to direct, coordinate and control emergency activities.
It should be noted that the licensee's Recovery

issu-ing a protective action recommendation to the counties over the
. blue phone.
The counties were unaware that the SEMA had not been consulted.
The FCP, after conferring with BRH,.quickly concurred and prevented a confusing situation from' developing.
' Objective Number 4, the ability to communicate with all ap-propriate locations, organizations and field personnel using pri-mary and-backup means,-was fully demonstrated.
Objective-Number 5, the adequacy of facilities, equipment, displays and-other materials to support emergency operations, was fully demonstrated, as. status boards were well maintained-in a
timely manner.
All FCP staff members arrived wearing dosimetry that was in conformity with the Plan.
All were aware of their dose limits and. procedures if they were exceeded.
Objective Number 6, the ability to continuously monitor and control emergency worker ex-posure, was fully demonstrated.
The following protective action recommendations were made:

Objective Number 11, the ability to make appropriate protec-tive action decisions based on relevant factors, was fully demon-strated.
Objective Number 33, implementation of appropriate measures for controlled reentry and recovery, had only a minimal applica-tion at this facility.
However, they carried out all relevant activities in accordance with the Plan, basing decisions on-field data provided by controllers.
At 1404, Osage and Callaway Coun -
- ties were requested to draft EBS messages relaxing protective ac-
-tions.
At 1431, Osage County reported that their message had been released to EBS.
Objective Number'33 was fully demonstrated.
Summary:
There were no prior inadequacies requiring correc-tive action.
Objectives fully demonstrated:
1, 2,
3, 4,
5, 6,
11, and 33.
There were no inadequacies.
2.1.3 Dose Assessment and Field Team Coordination This function is located in the EOF.
Objectives to be dem-onstrated:
2, 3,
4, 5,
6, 10, 11, 16, and 32.
Additionally, the staff was required to perform a corrective action from the last exercise.' This involved wearing and' reading dosimetry.
The staff deployed from the Bureau of Radiological Health offices at 0820 and arrived at the EOF at 0900.
All four members cleared security and arrived in their assigned area at 0905.
Objective Number 2, alert, mobilization, and activation, was fully demonstrated.
The Director of the Bureau of Radiological Health, of the Missouri Department of Health, was in charge throughout.
Message logging and distribution was practiced, as well as appropriate coordination.
Objective Number 3, the ability to direct, coordi-nate and control' emergency activities, was fully demonstrated.
Both primary and secondary communication systems were
- used, fully demonstrating Objective Number 4, the ability to communi-cate with all appropriate locations.
Facilities and displays were excellent, and status boards were promptly updated.
Objective Number 5, the adequacy of 11
facilities, equipment, displays and other materials to support L
emergency operations,:was-fully demonstrated.
All teah members arrived with proper dosimetry, read it at appropriate-intervals, and displayed knowledge-of all -required i
- elements, fully demonstrating Objective Number 6,.the ability'to i
continuously monitor and control emergency worker exposure,.and.
l correcting an area requiring corrective action from the last ex-ercise..
Both primary and backup dose projection methods were uti-lized correctly.
However, it was apparent that there were errors in the plant's dose projection computer program.
.To verify the m
situation the Bureau of Radiological Health ran its backup proce-
~dures.
The results verified their primary program and the pro-
.jection originally made.
At 1259, the licensee determined that they would rely on field readings.
The State of Missouri deployed'only one field team which op-erated south of the river.
- However, it worked in conjunction with the two teams' deployed by the licensee on the north side of the river.
Coordination among all three teams was excellent.
Objective Number 10 the ability to project dosage to the'public via plume exposure,, based on plant and field data, was fully dem-onstrated.
In the course of the exercise, the following. protective ac -
tions were recommended by the Bureau of Radiological Health.
1.
At 0925, (Site Area Emergency) it was recommended that dairy animals within a two mile radius be placed-on stored feed.
t 2.
At 1020, (General Emergency) it was recommended that the two mile radius be evacuated, and persons be sheltered from 2 to 5 miles in sectors H, J, and K;. dairy animals in.H, J, and K g
out to 10 miles were to be placed on stored feed.
3.
At
- 1115, the utility went on the blue phone
- and, without consulting State officials, unilaterally announced its rec-ommendation to evacuate H, J,
and K from 2'to 5 miles, and shelter from 5 to 10 miles.
Missouri officials concurred in this recommendation at 1120.
Objective. Number 11, the ability to make appropriate protec-tive action decisions, based on projected or actual dosage, EPA PAG's, availability of estimates and other relevant factors, was fully demonstrated.
At 1217, after conferring with plant staff, it was deter-mined that the dose projection did not warrant the use of KI for emergency workers.
12
<.(
-(
N
'I They again' discussed the'use of KI and once more decided it was not necessary.
This negative decision was adequate to demon-strate the decision making portion of objective Number 16, for recommending the;use of'KI to emergency workers, based on prede-termined-criteria.
Following a 24-hour time jump, field analysis showed that there were no restrictions to reentry.
The' scenario-called for a minimal demonstration of Objective Number 32, determination of appropriate measures for recovery and
- reentry, to permit the FCP to fulfill an undemonstrated portion of Objective Number 33.
Bureau of Radiological Health staff cor-rectly. calculated the " maximally exposed individual" for. areas impacted by the plume.
objective Number 32, determination of appropriate measures for controlled reentry and recovery, was fully demonstrated.
Summary:
.The prior inadequacy, relating to Objective Number 6, was corrected.
Objectives fully demonstrated were:
2, 3,
4, 5,
6, 10, 11, 16, and 32.
There were no inadequacies.
-2.1.4 Field Monitorina Team Objectives to be demonstrated were:
2, 4,
6, 7,
8, and 9.
The licensee deployed two field teams, while the State de-ployed only one.
FEMA had been informed of the possibility of the deployment ~ of a single team, with a second team being de-
- ployed, if required.
Two more teams were available and standing by, but were not needed.
The one State team did not rendezvous at.the EOF.
Rather, they were directed immediately to a monitor-ing.. station ' south of the Missouri River that they would pass enroute from Jefferson City.
As mentioned above, coordination of the-three field teams was excellent, as the licensee and the State showed-full cooperation.
The State team was comprised of two persons and mobilized in a timely fashion, leaving Jefferson City at 0830.
A roster for
~24-hour staffing was available at the EOF.
- However, due to the fact that only one team deployed, Objective Number 2,
- alerting, mobilizing and activating personnel for field based functions, is not :ensidered to have been fully demonstrated.
In future exer-cises, a minimum of two monitoring teams must be deployed.
The team used a mobile two-way radio and a portable radio to maintain contact with the EOF and by repeater, to the State EOC.
All was in accordance with the Plan, fully demonstrating Objec-tive Number 4, the ability to communicate with all appropriate locations, organizations, and field personnel.

2.1.6 Joint Public Information Center (JPIC)
This facility is located at the Union Electric building in Jefferson City, Missouri.
L Objectives to be demonstrated were:
1, 2,
4, 5,.14, and 15.
Objective Number 1, the ability to monitor, understand and emergency classification levels (ECLs) through appropriate use implementation of emergency functions and activities correspond-ing to ECLs, as required by the scenario, was fully demonstrated.
State personnel arrived at the JPIC at 0830 to begin activa-tion.
.At 0834, Union Electric staff declared the facility acti-l
~vated.
State staff established rumor control functions since two calls had already been received.- This would not normally be done until the-Site Area Emergency, which occurred at 0925.
At this time, the State declared the JPIC fulJy activated.
Objective Number 2, the' ability to fully alert, mobilize and activate personnel for facility functions was fully demoni strated.
L Communication with all facilities was observed throughout i'
the exercise, using multiple commercial phone lines and the fax machine.
Objective humber 4, the ability to communicate with all appropriate locations, was fully demonstrated.
Objective Number 5, adequacy of facilities, equipment, dis-plays and other materials to support emergency operations, was not adequately demonstrated.
There were two status boards in the JPIC; one upstairs and one downstairs.
Neither one was updated in a timely
- fashion, with protective action updates exceeding 10 minutes.
In addi-tion, the boards were not updated together, with one often giving 15

Objective Number 3, the ability to direct coordinate and control. emergency activities, was fully demonstrated.
The primary communication liri was-the blue phone, which was a dedicated line connecting all EOCs and the EOF.
This was used throughout the exercise.

Objectibe Number 11, the ability to make appropriate protec-
-tive action-decisions, based on projected or actual dosage, EPA PAGs, availability of adequate shelter, evacuation time estimates and'other relevant factors, was not adequately demonstrated.
This failure arose from the unwarranted decision to evacuate A
all.of the callaway County portion of the EPZ except for the City of Fulton.
This decision was made at 1135, when the State had-recommended evacuation of only the 2 mile radius and sectors H, J 1'
and1K from 2 to 5 miles, with sheltering in sectors-H, J and K-from 5 to 10' miles-The decision was not warranted by the plant status or field measurements, and would place the Levacuees at risk from automobile accidents and other considerations not war-i ranted by Environmental Protection Agency. protective action;

This erroneous protective action decision will require cor-a rective action through an adequate demonstration at the-next ex-ercise.-
Objective. Number 12, the ability to alert the public within the'10. mile EPZ and begin dissemination of-an instructional mes-sage within 15 minutes of a decision by appropriate State and/or local-officials, was fully demonstrated.
The only action required-Lwas the sounding of sirens, actuated by: the callaway County dispatcher..
The State EOC in Jefferson City was respon-siblenfor> releasing.the instructional message to the EBS station.
I The-CCEOC received notification of the Site Area Emergency l
at 0918.
Sirens were activated in coordination with the other three counties at 0927.

c Objective Number 13, the ability to coordinate the-formula-tion. and~ dissemination of accurate information-and- ' instructions
' i to the'public in a timely manner after the initial alert.and-no-
-tification has occurred, was not adequately demonstrated.
s The sequence of public instructions following the. initial notification is as follows:
1.
At 0929, the decision was made to place dairy animals o
on stored feed within a 2 mile radius.
This was not L
announced over EBS, but rather was handled through di-rect notification oy the County Agriculture Agent, i
I-l 18

2.
At 0932, the County decided to release a rumor control E
phone number over EBS.
The State EBS coordinator said m
it would be aired at 0935.
4 3.
At
- 1023, due to General Emergency, the State recom-mended the evacuation of the 2 mile radius, and shel-tering from 2 to 5 miles in sectors H, J, and K.
Dairy animals in sectors H, J,
and K out to 10 miles should be placed on stored feed.
At 1026, the County offi-cials concurred in this decision.
At 1029, the State EBS coordinator called on the blue phone to say that message 3A (announcement of General Emergency) would be aired at 1033.
Sirens were activated at 1031.
At
- 1041, the County officials decided to extend the State's recommended protective actions of shelter in H, J,
and K from 2 to 5 miles to evacuate that area.
At
- 1042, a copy of this EBS announcement was faxed to the State EOC for release.
- However, the prewritten land-
]
mark descriptions were not used.
The EMD had developed descriptions of his own.
At 1043, the County phoned the State and changed one landmark from "the Missouri River" to "the town of Mokane".
These extemporaneous 1y devised descriptions caused confusion at the State EOC, and prompted a call back to the Callaway County EMD.
A lengthy exchange ensued, with the State finally con-vincing the County to use the prewritten landmark de-scriptions.
The message was released over EBS at 1115.
- he elapsea time of 49 minutes (off-site decision time at 10!.6 and EBS release at 1115) is unacceptably 1cng y
and
>>Sg caused by the unwarranted use of extemporaneous landmark descriptiens.
This is a deficiency which must i
be corrected by amending the County Plans and/or Imple-1 menting Procedures to clarify the use of the prawritten landmark descrip+.ione versus the option of devoleping landmark definit ions as shown in SOP $7.
It should also be noted that the message, while listing the re-2 caption cente rs, and the respectiva evacuation routes did not indier te which cet.ters evacuees should go to depending on where they lived.
This in an area requir-ing corrective action at the next exercise.
4.
At 1135, the County, on its own initiative, decided to evacuate all of Callaway County within the EPZ with the exception of the City of Fulton.
Though this message did use the prewritten landmark descriptions, subsectors C-1, 2,
3, and 6 were omitted.
The EBS mes-sage did not indicate which centers evacuees should go to, per the brochure, depending on where they lived.

At
- 1055, it was decided to evacuate both the South l

Two separate EBS messages, one for each facil-ity, were faxed to the State EOC at 1058 and 1100.

Supplies were adequate.
Objective Number 18, the ability and resources necessary to implement appropriate protective actions for the impacted perna-nent and transient plume EPZ population (including transit dependent persons, special needs population, handicapped and in-stitutionalized persons), was not adequately demonstrated.
The inadequacy was rooted in the County's failure to notify the Riverview Nursing Home that they needed to evacuate.
They had been called at the General Emergency (along with all the special facilities on the list) and notified of the cor-rent ECL.
However, when the EMD actually decided, at 1025, to evacuate thir, institution, he failed to inform the dispatcher to notify them to evacuate.
This failure to notify the institution is a deficiency, This deficiency must be corrected through an amendment to the County Plans and/or Implementing Precedures which clearly assign responsibility for notifying the dispatcher.

This event was not scenario driven and began at 1000, by prearrangement.
Proper was demon-notification to the School Superintendent's office strated.
Evaluation.of the subsequent actions at the school will be covered in section 2.2.2.
Objective Number 20, the organizational ability and re-l sources necessary to control evacuation traffic flow and to con-trol access to evacuated and sheltered areas, was not adequately demonstrated.
Due to the large size of the affected areas, and the changes in protective actions, this was a complex objective to demonstrate.
For the most part, it was well done.
The lone demonstration failure occurred at 1127, when the same patrol car (403) was inadvertently dispatched to control both points P-11 l'
and P-13.
The error was noticed by the dispatcher who sent a
message pointing out the problem.
- However, the Sheriff did not see the message immediately, and no corrective action was taken for over an hour.
Thie left an evacuated area uncontrolled for an unnecessarily long pariod of time.
This is an area requiring corrective action at the next exercise.
Upon inquiry, the Sheriff said that officers were instructed if an eva:ua-not to allow raentry of the public for any reason, tien has been ordered.
However, the Plan recognizes " closed" and ujen" access (Procedure 1, supplandnt 1,Section II.A.3.a.
and m
II.B.A.)
The "open" access allous entry to certain persons for such thing) as feeding livestock, ootaining medication, etc.
Tao Sheriff reccgaized no such distinction.
Thic (access control) is area requiring corrective action through additional training an and demonstration at the next exercise.
In addition to this exercise inadequacy, several plan inad-equacies were also discovered.
Those not impacting on the exer-cise will be addressed under separate cover;
- however, the following had a direct impact upon the exercise.
In the County Implementing Procedures, Procedure 1, Supple-ment 2, the map indicates five access control points (B-5, C-2, D-4, D-7, and N-5) that are not listed among the descriptions.
l Conversely, there are 11 access control points described (C-3, I
l 21
,e-
i s.
C-4, C-5, G-5, P-7, P-8, P-0, Q-6, Q-7, Q-9, and Q-10), that are not shown on-the map.
These inconsistencies represent an area requiring corrective action, and must be corrected prior to the next exercise.
Summary:
Corrective actions on Objective Number 6, required from the last exercise, were fully accomplished.
Objectives fully demonstrated:
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6,
12, and 16.
Objectives not adequately demonstrated were:
11, 13, 18, 19, and 20.
Deficiencies 1.
It required 49 minutes to write and release to EBS the pro-tective actions called for at the General Emergency.
This resulted from the use of extemporaneous 1y developed landmark descriptions instead of the prewritten ones.
The ' County Plans and/or Implementing Procedures must be amended to clarify the use of prewritten landmark descrip-tions versus the option of developing landmark definition as shown in SOP #7.
2.
The County failed to notify the Riverview Nursing Home to activate their evacuation plan.
The Implementing Procedures assign the responsibility for making the call to the dis-patcher.
However, it is not clear who will provide the in-formation to the dispatcher.
The procedures must be amended to account for this specific step.
3.
As in deficiency 2 above, the County failed to notify South Callaway School to implement their evacoation plan.
The Implementing Procedures must be revised to assign the re-sponsibility to notify the dispatcher to notify eacn af-fected special facility and inform them of the specific protective actions required for that facility.
The proce-dures must be amended to cccount for this specific step.
4.
The County Plans state that the evacuation of schoolt will i
be carried out in accordance with thz schools' own plans.
In the case of Fulton School District #58, this means that
- students, K through 5, will ce taken to.a temporary raloca-tion center (TRC) at the North Callaway High School.
In the I
case of the South callaway School,
- students, K through 5,
would be evacuated to a TRC at the South Boone High School at Ashland.
If TRC's are to be utilized, the Plans must specifically state this, and must account for the following:
l 22
a.
A " shelter profile" of the TRC, confirming the exist-ence of sufficient usable space to house the maximum i
number of students,
- faculty, and staff that might be expected there at any one time.
b.
A map showing the location of, and routes to, the TRC.
c.
If the TRC is not at least 5 miles beyond the plume ex-i posure EPZ, it must have monitoring and decontamination capabilities.
d.
A description of the resources and procedures used to i
transport students from the TRC to the reception and care facility, and the maximum length of time a student would remain at the temporary facility.
e.
Letters of agreement (LOA) between the schools and the i
i facility chosen as the TRC.
The LOA must spell out the services the receiving school will provide.
All required changes were submitted on December 8, 1989 and approved.
Areas Resuirina Corrective hetion 4.
The County officials decided to evacuate all of the Callaway County portion'of the EPZ with the exception of the City of Fulton.
This decision was unwarranted in view of State rec-ommendation, plant status, field measurements and EPA PAG's.
This erroneous protective action decision will require i
cor-rective action through an adequate demonstration of Objec-tive Number 11 at th.s next exercisee 5.
In the course of issuing two EBS messages (at 1115 and 1149)

In demonstrating access control, car 403 was erroneously as-signed to two control points, Pil and P13.
When the error was discovered it was not rectified for over an hour, leav-ing sector P uncontrolled.
l 23
I The Sheriff also had instructed officers not to permit reentry of the public for any reason.
- However, the plan recognizes.a concept called "open access permitting reentry

for essential purposes.
Corrective action will be required through successful demon-stration of objective Number 20 at the next exercise.
7.
In the area of access control, the Callaway County Imple-menting Procedures were found to contain inconsistencies.
Procedure 1,
Supplement 2, describes 11 access control points not shown on the map (C-3, C-4, C-5, G-5, P-7, P-8, P-9, Q-6, Q-7, Q-9, Q-10).
Conversely, the map indicates 5 control points not contained in the description (B-5, C-2, D-4, D-7, N-5). These inconsistencies must be corrceted in the 1990 Plan update.
2.2.2 Fulton school District 458 - Bush School Bush School was cl.asen for demonstration of evacuation pro-cedures independent of the exercise scenario.
It was predeter-nined that this would occur at 1000.
There were no inadequacies from prior exercises requiring l
correction.
Objectives to be demonstrated were:
4, 6,
16, and 19.
objective Number 4, the ability to communicate with all ap-propriate locations, organizations and field personnel was fully demonstrated.
The communication chain began at 1000, when the Callaway County /Fulton EOC called the Pulton School District
- 58 Superintendent's office and announced that the district should activate its evacuation plan.
The call was received by the district's Director of Support Services.
Since only Bush School was demonstrating, he called the Bush principal at 1002.
(In an t
actual emergency he would have contacted the other four schools in the district, as well.)
At 2003, he called the bus garage and mobilized the buses, and at 1004, he notified the school board president.
Bush School is kindergarten through fifth grade with 490
- students, 27 faculty and 6 other staff.
The principal received the phone call from the Superintendent's office, but could also have beer, notified via the Plectron (indoor warning system).
All classes vere notified via intercom (simulated) to gather by classes in the gym for bus loading.
Buses arrived at the school (one bus for demonstration 4
pur-poses) within 10 minutes.
The driver was well aware of the evacuation routes and the location of the reception center.
i The 24
f
.O driver arrived with two self reading dosimeters, a TLD, and KI, in accordance with the Plan.
He demonstrated a
knowledge of their use and was aware of dose limits.
- However, he was unsure of the procedure if limits were reached or exceeded.
He referred to his instruction card, but the information was not there.
This is an area that will require corrective action through appropri-ate additions to the instruction card.
This precluded an ad-equate demonstration of Objective Number 6,
the ability to continuously monitor and control emergency worker exposure.
The driver was aware that KI was a part of his kit and that its use could be recommended.
Instructions were in the dosimetry kit.
The applicable portion of Objective Number 16, distribution and administration of KI, was fully demonstrated.
Objective Number 19, the ability and resources necessary to implement appropriate protective actions for school children within the plume EPZ, was fully demonstrated.
Summary:
There were no inadequacies from prior exercises.
Objectives fully demonstrated:
4 16, and 19.
Objective Number 6 was not adequately demonstrated.
There were no areas from the previous exercise which required corrective action.

In addition, there was an area requiring corrective action l
from the last exercise related to the provision of staffing ros-ters.
Objective Number 3, the ability to monitor, understand and use emergency classification leveln was fully dr.monstrated with all staff showing a knowledge of their significance and use.
Objective Number 2, the ability to alert, mobilize and acti-vate personnel, was fully demonstrated.
Mobilization calls were begun at 0740 and completed at 0800.
All staff required by the Plan reported for duty, with full staffing being accomplished by 0900.
The trea requiring correction from the last exercise was satisfied by use of a roster of key staff and another for augmen-tation staff.

l 2.2.4 Gasconada county Recention and care center (GcMcc)
(Earmann Eigh School, Rermann, Missouri)
Objectives to be demonstrated were:
2, 3,
4, 6, 21, 22, 25, and.34.
In aduition, there were six areas requiring correction from the last exercise.
They were:
- 1) Emergency workers doin'g monitoring and decontamination must have
- TLDs, 2)
Monitoring i
staff must demonstrate a knowledge of levels for initiating de-contamination, 3)
The facility must be rearranged to provide better segregation between contaminated and decontaminated i
evacuees, 4) proper bagging and labeling of contaminated clothing must be demonstrated, 5) Establishment of nursing station must be demonstrated, and 6) Monitors must demonstrate knowledge of de-contamination levels for vehicles.
This facility was scheduled for demonstration outside the sequence of the exercise scenario.
It occurred at 1800.
Staff 1
at the Gasconada County office of the Missouri Division of Family Services (DFS) were mobilized by a call from DFS in Jefferson 1
City.
They reported to the Hermann High School and began to ac-tivate the facility.
At 1912, they notified Jefferson City that they were fully staffed and activated and ready to receive evacuees.
objective Number 2, the ability to fully alert, mobilize and activate personnel, was fully demonstrated.
The' operation was ably managed by DFS staff assisted by a
Red Cross support person.
Briefings, message handling and record keeping were all demonstrated, fully accounting for objective l
Number 3, the ability to direct, coordinate and control emergency activities.
Objective Number 4, the ability to communicate with all ap-propriate locations and orgarrizations was also fully demon-strated; with backup radio being operated Ly ham radio operators.
Emergency workers monitoring evacuees were properly equipped p
with self reading dosimeters and TLDs.
They displayed all re-quired knowledge regarding dose limits and reporting procedures.
Objective Number 6, the ability to continuously monitor and con-trol emergency worker exposure, was fully demonstrated and ac-counted for an area requiring correction at the last exercise.
1 Objective Number 21, adequacy of procedures, facilities, equipment and personnel for the registration, radiological monitoring and decontamination of evacuees, was fully demon-strated.
27
l l
Six monitors were present.
A roster of the full staff was i
presented.
Full staffing calls for 17 monitors.
This number is more than adequate to monitor 20% of the evacuees, which amounts to 500- persons.
The teams were made up of Missouri National Guard members and University of Missouri Research Reactor staff.
They accounted for three areas requiring correction through dem-onstration of a
knowledge of the decontamination levels for evacuees and vehiclest proper bagging and labeling of con-I taminated clothing; and proper layout of the facility to segregation of uncontaminated and contaminated personnel.
ensure A
nursing station had also been established in the congre-i gate care section, accounting for a past area requiring tion, while fully demonstrating Objective Number 22, the adequacy correc-of equipment and personnel for congregate care.
The
- facility, managed by DFS, was fully staffed in accord with the Plans, and i
also included a crisis counselor.
Objective Number 25, the adequacy of facilities, equipment, I
- supplies, procedures and personnel for decontamination of emer-i gency workers, equipment and vehicles and for waste disposal, was fully demonstrated, satisfying an area requiring correction from the last exercise.
This was specifically accomplished as workers correctly identified the decontamination level for automobiles as 3
mR/hr.
Proper decontamination procedures were also demon-strated.
Center management staff and monitoring. supervisors all formed per-shift changes in the midst of monitoring and registering 29 evacuees.
Objective Number 34, the ability to maintain staffing on a continuous 24-hour basis by an actual shift change, was fully demonstrated.
i Summary:
All six areas requiring correction from the previ-exercise were successfully demonstrated.
Objectives fully ous demonstrated were:
2, 3,
4, 6,
21, 22, 25, and 34.
2.2.5 EIAtuee and amereenev worker Monitorina and Decontamina-tion - Hearnes center This facility did not exercise, however, there were five ar-eas requiring correction from the last exercise.
They were:
1)
Hand held monitoring equipment used was not in accord with the Plan, 2) Proper procedures for use of PRM-7 micro-R-meter must be demonstrated,
- 3) Correct procedures for use of open window probe must be demonstrated,
- 4) Proper procedure in monitoring for in-ternal vehicle contamination must be demonstrated, and 5) Proper procedures for vehicle monitoring must be demonstrated.
While these inadequacies were observed in 1988 at the Hearnes
- Center, the demonstration this year was allowed to be 28
~
v conducted at th3 G3Cctn0d3 C:unty R c ptien cnd Caro Cantor.
Tho same crew from the Hearnes Center (1988) performed the demonstra-tion of the applicable portions of objective Number 25.
EquipmenN.used was in accord with the Plan and had been calibrated within the required time.
Proper procedures in the was demonstrated, of all equipment for monitoring vehicles use fully accounting for the applicable portions of Objective Number i
25 to-account for all five areas requiring corrective action.
2.2.6 Jefferson City Recention and Care Center This facility did not exercise, however, there was one area requiring correction from the last exercise.
There was no shift i
change by the center manager position in 1988.
To accomplish this, it was agreed that the second shift manager could perform a shift change at the Gasconade County Reception and Care Center.
At approximately 1955, the DFS staff person from Cole County successfully assumed the management of the operation, demonstrat-ing knowledge of procedures and staff.
This completed demonstra-tion of Objective Number 34, the ability to maintain staffing on a
continuous 24-hour basis by an actual shift change and ac-counted for the area requiring corrective action from the last exercise.

The following objectives were planned for demonstration:
1, 2,
3, 4,
5, 6,
11, 12, and 13.
Objective Number 1, the ability to monitor, understand and use emergency classification levels (ECL),
was fully demon-strated.
I At- 0735, the Sheriff's dispatcher began making activation calls and had contacted all EOC personnel by 0827.
The facility was fully staffed in accord with the Plan by 0835, fully demon-strating Objective Number 2, the ability to fully alert, mobilize and activate personnel.
l-The County Emergency Management Director (EMD) in conjunc-tion with the County Commissioner, was in charge of the response operation.
Briefings were timely, message logs were maintained, and appropriate staff were involved in decision making, objec-tive Number 3, the ability to direct, coordinate and control emergency activities, was fully demonstrated.

L 2.2.8 Osace county Emeraency Onorations Center (OCEOC)
There were two inadequacies from the past exercise requiring corrective action.
The first called for a demonstration of the procedures for activating the sirens upon authorization by the 30
e County Commissioner.
The second required a demonstration of all telephone and radio communication instruments.
Objectives to be demonstrated were:
1, 2,
3, 4,
5, 6,
11, 12, 13, 16, 18, 19, 20, 32, 33, and 34.
Objective Number 1, the ability to monitor, understand and use-emergency classification levels (ECLs) through appropriate implementation of emergency functions and activities correspond-ing to ECLs as required by the scenario, was fully demonstrated.
the At
- 0742, staffing and activation began in response to Alert that had been declared at 0738.
Calls were completed at 0835.
All required staff were in place by 0907.
- However, both the Plan and the implementing procedures call for the Sheriff's In this exer-dispatcher to make all staff notification calls.
cine the calls were made by the County Commissioner.
Failure of the staff to make notification in accordance with the Plan is an area requiring corrective action.
If these are the procedures that make the most effective use the County Implementing Procedures must be changed of personnel, to so state.
Objective Number 2, alert, mobilization and activa-tion of personnel, was not adequately demonstrated, although a
staff roster was provided.
The County Commissioner, with the atsistance of the Emer-gency Management Director, was in charge of the operation.
Nu-merous briefings were conducted and messages were logged and Objective Number 3, the ability to direct, coordi-distributed.
nate and control emergency activities, was fully demonstrated.
All phone lines were connected, made operational, and uti-
- lized, as well as backup radios.
This corrected an inadequacy from the prior exercise, objective Number 4, the ability to com-municate with all appropriate organizations, locations, and field personnel, was fully demonstrated.
objective Number 5, the adequacy of facilities, equipment,
- displays, and other materials to support emergency operations, j.
was fully demonstrated, as maps and status boards were used and I
updated in a timely fashion.
Objective Number 6, the ability to continuously monitor and control emergency worker exposure, was not adequately demon-strated.
both The failure to demonstrate was caused by the fact that the Plan and the procedures neglected to provide emergency worker dosimetry kits to the driver of a church van used to evacuate disabled persons.
This is an area that requires correction through changes in the Osage County Plan and/or Implementing Pro-1 31
. yo..
_. w

- cedures, as well as a demonstration of this capability at the next exercise.
All other emergency workers were properly equipped and' demonstrated knowledge of the proper use of personal dosimetry and record keeping.
I The only protective action which affected Osage County was called for at 1119.
The State recommended that they shelter from 1
5 to 10 miles in sectors H, J, and K.
The county officials de-cided that it would be easier to call for shelter in all of that portion of the county that is in the 10-mile EPZ.
In
- effect, l
this added only one other sector, G.
Objective Number 11, the ability to make appropriate protec-tive action decisions based on projected or actual
The only portion of Objective Number 12 for which Osage County was responsible, was activation of the siren system.
This was not adequately demonstrated.
At 0918, they received notice over the blue phone from the plant that a Site Area Emergency had been declared at 0915.
At 0923, they received notice of Site Area Emergency from the State FCP and, as requested, sounded si-rens at 0927.
The State EOC released the message to the EBS sta-tion at 0928.
- However, the Plan calls for the County Commissioner to authorize the sounding of sirens.
This did not The dispatcher who received the message did not have. time occur.
e i
to seek authorization prior to siren activation.
The sirens were i
sounded within the prescribed timeframe, which corrected the por-i tion of the previous area requiring corrective action relative to timeliness.
- However, this same failure to follow the Plan oc~
curred at the last exercise and was the second portion,of the area requiring corrective action.
This problem still remains to be corrected.
The Plan should be changed to permit the dis-patcher to automatically act on the State's request without need-i ing county authorization.-
In any case, an adequats demonstration i
of the Plan will be required at the next exercise.
Objective Number 13, the ability to coordinate the formula-tion and dissemination of accurate information and instructions to the public in a timely fashion, after the initial alert and notification has occurred, was fully demonstrated.
l At 1110, the County Officials decided to call for a precau-tionary evacuation of Chamois School, and issued an EBS message to that'effect at.1112, announcing that the students were being taken to the relocation center at Lincoln University in Jefferson City.
At 1119, the county received the State's recommendation to shelter in sectors H, J,
and K from 5 to 10 miles.
The county expanded the area to sector G, which was equivalent to subsector 01, or all of Osage County within the EPZ.
This EBS message was 32 T:-

phoned to the State at 1130.
It should be noted that tho prewritten landmark description for this subsector (message 8-0 in the Plan) is not precisely the same as the one written in the public information brochure.
While both describe the area, the one in the brochure is clearer, especially for transients.
It is recommended that the prewritten message be changed.
At 1420, the State reported that the Bureau of Radiological Health had deter-mined that it was safe to reenter the evacuated area and termi-nate sheltering.
At 1430, they prepared EBS messages fil and #12 relaxing the previously imposed protective actions.
Objective Number 16, the decision to recommend the use of KI for emergency workers, as well as to distribute and administer it, was fully demonstrated.
KI was not called for, so the deci-sien was negative.
However, adequate supplies of KI were avail-able and staff were knowledgeable in KI use, had the decision been positive.
objective Number 18, the ability and resources necessary to implement appropriate protective actions for the impacted perma-nent and transient plume EPZ population (including transient-de-pendent persons, special needs population, handicapped persons and institutionalized persons), was not adequately demonstrated.
From 1020 to 1125, the EOC staff contacted mobility impaired
- persons, and others requiring transportation assistance.-
Six persons were determined as needing transportation.
- However, in a
giving the names to the driver, one person was omitted and would not have been picked up.
The van and driver were from St. John's Methodist Church.
This transportation resource is not listed in the Plan.
Neither was there any provision to train and equip the driver as an emergency worker.
- Further, there was no letter of i
agreement with the church, documenting this resource.
If this resource is to be used, the Plan must be amended and the Letter of Agreement obtained; dosimetry and KI, as well as training in their use, must be provided (see Objective Number 6).
This is an area requiring corrective action through a successful demonstra-tion of objective Number 18, et the next exercise.
Objective Number 19, the ability and resources necessary to implement appropriate protective actions for school children within the plume EPZ, was not adequately demonstrated.
The plans and procedures call for special facilities (schools included) to be notified by the dispatcher at the Alert, the Site Area Emergency and the General Emergency.
Chamois school was not notified until 0954, 39 minutes after the Site Area Emergency declaration.
At
- 1110, the County officia'Is decided that Chamois school should be precautionarily evacuated.
At 1112, an EBS message was phoned to the State EOC.
The schools were not actually informed 33
W th2t th:y ch:uld cctivato th31r cyceu3 tion plan until 1118.
The school should have been consulted with coordination occurring prior to the EBS message being released.
This lack of timely communication with the school La an area reguiring corrective ac-tion through demonstration at the next exercise.
Objective Number. 20, the organizational ability and re-sources necessary to control evacuation traffic flow and to con-trol access to evacuated and sheltered areas, was not adequately demonstrated.
The Plan and Standard operating Procedures (SOP) distin-guishes between access control and traffic control, the later be-ing simply directing the flow of traffic.
- However, SOP Number 1 must be amended to clarify that access control must be estab-lished when sheltering is called for as well as during an evacua-tion.
This is an area requiring corrective action through demonstration of objective Number 20, at the next exercise.
After a time jump at 1315, the State recommended the relax-ation of protective actions.
The county had very little role in demonstrating Objective Number 32, determining appropriate maa-sures for controlled reentry and recovery.
Essentially, they concurred with the State, fully demonstrating their limited role in this objective.
Each representative reviewed and documented what actions would be taken for their response roles in the upcoming days.
They then.went on to formulate the appropriate EBS messages an-nouncing an end to the sheltering previously imposed.
This fully demonstrated Objective Number 33, the ability to implement ap-propriate measures for controlled reentry and recovery.
l Throughout the exercise, all positions demonstrated a shift change.
Incoming staff were given brdwfings and showed good con-tinuity.
Objective Number 34, the. ability to maintain-staffing on a
continuous 24 hour2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> basis by an actual shift change, was fully t
demonstrated.
Summary:
One inadequacy cited at the prior exercise was i
fully satisfied.
The second inadequacy was corrected for timeli-l
- ness, but the County still failed to follow its Plan regarding authorization for, siren sounding and remains an open area requir-ing corrective action at the next exercise.
Objectives fully demonstrated were:
1, 3,
4, 5,
11, 13, 16, 32, 33, and 34.

Activation calls were made by the County Commissioner in-1 stead of the dispatcher, as the Plan dictates.
A demonstra-tion of the proper activation provisions in accordance with the Plan will be required at the next exercise.
l 10.
A church van was used to evacuate disabled persons.
This was not listed in the Plan and the driver did not resource have access to, nor training in the use of dosimetry.
If i
this resource will continue to be used, the driver must re-ceive emergency worker equipment, and training in its use.
A demonstration will be required at the next exercise.

At 0927, the dispatcher sounded the siren at the Site Area a
Emergency without obtaining authorization from the County Commissioner.
This alao occurred at the last exercise.
This must be corrected by a proper demonstration of the si-ren activation procedure as set forth in the Plan at the next exercise.
12.
In providing transportation for mobility impaired, one per-i who had been identified as needing transportation, was son omitted in the simulated pick up.
- Also, the transportation resource (church van) was not listed in the Plan.
The Plan must be rectified and a successful demonstration performed at the next exercise.
If the van is used, documentation of this resource plus a letter of agreement must be developed l
for the Plan.

Objective Number 6, the abilit worker exposure,y to continuously monitor and control emergency was not adequately demon-strated due to a shortage of dosimetry kits.
While there -were seven buses available,.
there were only five kits.
There should be one dosimetry kit, including KI, for each bus.
With this exa caption, all the equipment was in accord with the Plan, and driv-ers were knowledgeable regarding its use.
They were also aware of dose limits and procedures if limits are reached or exceeded.
Providing the two additional kits is a required corrective ac-
- tion, i
objective Number 16, the ability to distribute-and adminis-ter KI, was fully demonstrated, as supplies of the drug were part of each driver's kit.

i DEFICIENCIES l
COUNTY.0FERATIONS.
callaway Countv/Pulton Eneroenev oneratione Center (CCEOC) 1.
It required 49 minutes to write and release to EBS the pro-tective actions called for at the General Emergency.
This resulted from the use of extemporsnoously developed landmark descriptions instead of the prewritten ones.
The County Plans and/or Implementing Procedures must be amended to clarify the use of prewritten landmark descrip-tions versus the option of developing landmark definition as shown in SOP #7.
2.
The Cuunty failed to notify the Riverview Nursing Home to activate their evacuation plan.
The Implementing Procedures assign the responsibility for making the cal) to the dis-patcher.
However, it is not clear who vill pro >ide the in-formation to the dispatener.
The procedures mast be amended i
to account for this specific step.
3.
As in deficiency 2 above, the County failed to notify South callaway School to innlement their evacuation plan.
The Implementing Procedurce assign tha responsibility of mak12.c; the call to the dispatcher.
- However, it is not clear who will provide the information to the dispatcher.
The proce-dures must be amendti to account for this specific step.
4.
The County Plans rtate that the evacuation of schools will be carried out in accordance with the schools' own plans.
In the case of Fulton School District # 58, this means that
- students, K through 5, will be taken to a temporary reloca-tion center (TRC) at the North Callaway High School.
In the case of the South Callaway School,
- students, K through 5,
s would be evacuated to a TRC at the South Boone High School at Ashland.
I f.
TRC's are to be utilized, the Plans must specifically state this, and must account for the following:
4 39
(.%
~
a.
A " shelter profile" of the TRC, confirming the exist-ence of sufficient usable space to house the maximum number of students,
- faculty, and staff that might be sxpected there at any one time.
b.
A map showing the location of, and routes to, the TRC.
If the TRC is not at least 5 miles beyond the plume ex-c.
posure EPZ, it must have monitoring and decontamination capabilities.
d.
A description of the resources and procedures used to 2
transport students from the TRC to the reception and care facility, and the maximum length of time a student would remain at the temporary facility.
e.
Letters of agreement (LOA) between the schools and the facility chosen as the TRC.
The LOA must spell out the services the receiving school will provide.
All required changes were submitted on December 8, 1989 and approved.
