i ABSTRACT The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) regulates nuclear power plants and certain other civilian nuclear facilities and materials to protect the public health and safety and to preserve environmental quality. While the foremost objective of regulation is to prevent accidents, the NRC is also prepared to help its licensees and State and local governments mitigate the consequences of any that might occur. This document describes the NRC concept, purposes, and organization for performing essential functions during a Federal response to a severe reactor accident, with an emphasis on State and Federal coordination.

i INTRODUCTION 1

This document describes the NRC concept, purposes, and organization for performing essential functions during a Federal response to a severe radiological accident, with an emphasis on State and Federal coordination.

The NRC response most often begins with a telephone call from the organization licensed by the NRC (the licensee) to the agency's all-hours Operations Center at headquarters in Bethesda, Maryland. Licensees are reqtiired to report problems with potential safety significance; the NRC scales its response to its own assessment of the significance of the problem and gears its activities, from the start, to the NRC Incident Response Plan and implementing procedures.

Licensee emergency classifications for reactor accidents are the following:

1 L

e Unusual Event: Events that indicate a potential degradation of the level of safety of the plant are in progress or have occurred. No releases of radioactive material l

requiring offsite response or monitoring are expected unless further degradation of safety systems occurs.

e Aleft: Events that involve an actual or potential substantial degradation of plant I

safety are in progress or have occurred. Any radioactive releases are expected to be a small fraction of those that require implementation of protective actions under Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) guidelines and would not pose a threat to the public.

Site Area Emergency: Events that involve an actual or likely major failure of plant functions needed for protecting the public are in progress or have occurred. Any i

radioactive releases are not expected to exceed levels requiring implementation of protective actions by the public under EPA guidelines.

General Emergency:

Events that indicate a possible threat to the public are in progress or have occurred. Radioactive releases may exceed those levels at which EPA guidelines indicate public protective actions should be taken.

NRC response modes are the following:

Standby:

The situation is sufficiently complex or uncertain to require additional monitoring and preparations to increase the NRC response quickly should it prove to be necessary. The appropriate NRC regional office directs response activities.

The above mode involves only a few NRC specialists because the significance of the safety concerns immediately evident is not yet clear. Other Federal organizations are notified but are not directly involved. State and local authorities, who will have been notified by the licensee, may call the NRC for an interpretation of the event and response.

l 1

i l

The following modes, which indicate that an event with clear safety concerns is under way, usually involve direct participation by other Federal organizations. 'They are the response modes with which most of this document is concerned.

Initial Activation:

The event calls for the NRC to dispatch a management and analysis team to the site. During this mode, the response to an event is directed by the NRC Executive Team from the NRC Operations Center at headquarters in Bethesda, Maryland, while an NRC team is on the way to the site.

ExpandedActivation: The NRC management and analysis team, now called the Site e

Team, is operational at the site. During this mode, the entire NRC response is directed from the site by the Director of Site Operations with operational authority delegated by the Director of the Executive Team. Other NRC teams act in support of the Director of Site Operations.

e Deactivation: A plan for follow up activities, including reentry and recovery, is in effect and the NRC is reducing its role to that in the plan with the concurrence of the Federal Coordinating Officer and the State Coordinating Officer.

Provisions of the Federal Radiological Emergency Response Plan come into play when response activities of more than one Federal organization need to be coordinated; in addition, the broader Federal Response Plan may take effect. These overlaid Federal plans neither delay nor change the thrust of NRC response activities when they take effect, but they do entail additional coordination to provide the best possible Federal support to State and local authorities.

The NRC maintains the flexibility needed to meet both the changing requirements of an emergency and the varying needs for working with other organizations by first, defining the functions that may need to be performed and, second, training teams of functional specialists who can be deployed as the situation requires.

The functional areas for which teams have been trained are:

a response management technical support reactor safety (pertains to the status of an affected reactor) protective measures (pertains to protecting people) safeguards / security (pertains to deliberate threats to safe operations) coordination and support (including communications and logistics) e NUREG-1471 2

FUNCTIONAL AREA OPERATIONAL CONCEPTS Response Management Single agency authority - The NRC Chairman is the senior NRC authority for all NRC response activities. The Chairman may act alone on behalf of the Commission in an cmcrgency and is responsible to the President for all agency actions.

(Another C mnissioner is always designated to act in the Chairman's absence.)

Opcmtional authority close to the site - Operational authority for response to most events begin with the appropriate Regional Administrator because regional office personnel (which include resident inspectors at licensee facilities) are usually most familiar with details of the affected facility. When a major NRC onsite presence is required, operational authority shiits to the Director of the Executive Team, (NRC Organization Chart H B) at headquarters while a Site Team is in route. When the Executive Team convenes in the NRC Operations Center at headquarters, the Chairman or a designated Commissioner serves as its director.

The Chairman may also call on the other Commissioners and Executive Team members for advice and assistance. Finally, the Director of the Executive Team transfers operational authority to an NRC Director of Site Operations (NRC Organization Chart S-C)as soon as a qualified individual (usually the regional administrator) arrives at the licensee's Emergency Operations Facility, assesses the situation, and is prepared to take the lead in performing ongoing response actions. The NRC responds to an emergency with a single voice and a single agency position regardless of the location of operational authority.

Coorrlinated Federal management - The Federal response to a severe radiological accident is coordinated under two plans: the Federal Radiological Emergency Response Plan (FRERP) and the all hazards Federal Response Plan. The FRERP, which is in effect when more than one Federal agency responds to a radiological emergency, designates the NRC as Lead Federal Agency (LFA) if the affected facility is licensed by the NRC or an Agreement State. As LFA, the NRC manages Federal onsite activities, serves as the primary Federal source of technical information regarding onsite status and offsite radiological conditions (potential and actual), and ensures development of coordinated Federal protective action assessments and positions for use by State and local authorities.

Coordination of Federal support to the State in performing protective action assessments is discussed in the Protective Measures sections of this document. The NRC also ensures that any assessments and positions that might affect protective actions being considered by State or local authorities are coordinated with the authorities before release. The NRC will not interfere with the process for developing, transmitting and implementing protective action recommendations.

The Federal Response Plan (FRP) is the implementing mechanism for resource support from the Federal government for events that result in a Presidential declared " Major Disaster" or " Emergency" under the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act. The FRP defines an Emergency Support Function (ESF) and primary agency for providing support for each of the major functions (for instance food and communication) that usually are addressed in a disaster of any kind.

5

3 FEMA will deploy an Emergency Response Team - Advance (ERT-A) to make initial contact with the affected State and local responding organizations and establish a Disaster Field Office (DFO) whether or not there has been a Presidential declaration, if necessary.

The damage assessment component of the ERT-A may be deployed directly to the location of the accident with in 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br />. NRC, which is the designated primary agency for radiological events at an NRC licensed facility, sends a Government Liaison Coordinator (NRC Organization Chan S-D) to the DFO to coordinate with ESF representatives for non-radiological support. The NRC will deploy a State EOC Coordinator (NRC Organization Chart S D) to work with the State response organizations and interface with the ERT-A in the State EOC. If the hazards assessment component of the ERT-A is deployed, the NRC Rad Damage Assessment Coordinator (NRC Organization Chart S-K) will accompany them.

Upon establishment of the DFO, the NRC will deploy a Deputy DSOfor Offsite Operations (NRC Organization Chart S C) to coordinate with key State and Federal decisionmakers.

The NRC also sends a representative to ESF-5 (information and planning) to help ensure a common understanding of Federal response activities and, once they have been coordinated with the State, actual and projected radiological conditions.

NUREG 1471 6

Technical Support Reactor Safety Resident inspectors - The NRC maintains at least two Resident inspectors (NRC Organization Chan S H) at each nuclear power plant. During an emergency the inspectors usually go to the control room and the nearby Technical Suppon Center (TSC), but they may be assigned anywhere to supplement the information provided to the NRC by the licensee. This can be especially valuable in the early stages of an accident when licensee personnel are busiest and the NRC has no other employees at the site.

Independent assessments ofplant conditions - The NRC monitors the status of a reactor involved in an accident to:

assess and predict reactor core and containment conditions, assess licensee's e

understanding of the event and confirm the classification provide those performing assessments of protective measures (Protective o

Measures Team or Coordinator) with the information needed to make independent assessment of off site consequences and protective action recommendations keep the NRC response management (Executive Team or DSO) informed of plant conditions and future trends that could impact protective action recommendations assist the State (s) in the interpretation of plant data e

provide technical and logistical support to the licensee as requested e

Within an hour or two of an event, the NRC is prepared to offer assistance in interpreting plant conditions and the potential impact on public safety.

Continualinput ofplant conditions to protective action assessments - During an accident with the potential for severe offsite consequences, early protective actions are based on actual plant conditions. Plant conditions and protective action positions are reviewed continually throughout an event. Although the focus may shift to offsite monitoring after a major release, the NRC continues to monitor plant conditions as long as the plant poses a threat.

Close followup - Once the plant reaches a stable and safe condition, the NRC assesses licensee actions to keep it stable and continues to monitor for signs of plant degradation or radiologient eases of any magnitude.

7 1

l

NRC support of State and local authorities - Within an hour or two of an event, the NRC offers technical assessments and interpretations of reactor conditions, accident progression, and possible consequences to State and local officials.

Minimal coonlination burden on the licensee - The licensee has, at all times, primary responsibility for mitigating the consequences of an incident. The NRC helps the licensee devote maximum resources to that effort by reducing the overhead burden in two ways:

The Emergency Response Data System (ERDS) provides the NRC with more timely data automatically from those plants where it is alreody installed. The NRC can also relay the data to affected States during an emergency.

The NRC provides evaluated operational plant information, and expertise to help-o interpret it, to other organizations to assist in developing and evaluating protective action recommendations.

Assessments available throughout an emergency - When the NRC response is directed from headquarters (Initial Activation), the NRC Reactor Safety Team (NRC Organization Chart H-C, D) is available to provide assistance to the State authorities, and performs assessments at the NRC Operations Center at NRC Headquarters. The Reactor Safety Team can be contacted at the all-hours NRC Operations Center number (301/951-0550 until June 1994 when it will be changed due to the relocation of the NRC Operations Center).

During Expanded Activation (normally, within about 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br />), the responsibility for making reactor safety assessments is transferred to the NRC Reactor Safety Coordinator (NRC Organization Chart S-H) at either the Technical Support Center (TSC) or the Emergency Operations Facility (EOF) near the plant. The Reactor Safety Team at the NRC Operations Center at headquarters remains in place and provides assistance by phone.

Protective Measures NRC as Lead Fedemi Agency - Licensees are required to recommend actions to protect the public, if necessary, and State and local governments are expected to act on them without conferring with the NRC. However, if the States request it, the Federal government can provide protective measures advice and assistance during a radiological accident to Federal, State, and local agencies, and to the licensee within a brief period (ideally 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br />) after the start of an accident.

Under the FRERP, the NRC serves as the Lead Federal Agency (LFA) for events involving its licensees, including those licensed by Agreement States. The NRC also serves as the LFA for events involving the transportation of radioactive materials that are licensed by the -

NRC or an Agreement State.

Coordinated Fedeml positions - As the LFA, the NRC coordinates the assessment of potential and actual radiological consequences and the Federal positions on protective actions. Federal positions normally include assessments by the Environmental Protection NUREG-1471 8

]

Agency (EPA), the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), and the U.S.

Department of Agriculture (USDA).

The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) promotes overall coordination among Federal organizations, coordinates nonradiological activities, and serves as a source of information on the status of the total Federal response.

Fedemi assessments to support State and local authorities - The NRC is not involved in the process of recommending protective actions unless a major problem is identified with the protective actions recommended by the licensee or undertaken by the State or local government, or unless it is requested to do so by State or local officials.

Within an hour or two of an event, the NRC offers assistance in interpreting Federal guidance on protective actions and can offer an official Federal position, if requested, to those officials who are responsible for making 1:chnical assessments of radiological conditions for decisionmakers at the State or locallevel.

Use ofthe best available Federal expertise - The NRC has the expertise to analyze conditions at a nuclear power plant or other type of nuclear facility and to relate the conditions to possible radiological consequences and appropriate protective measures. EPA, HHS, and USDA have the expertise to evaluate the possible wnsequences against their plume exposure and ingestion guidelines and to assist States in applying their evaluations.

j Together, the four agencies are prepared to develop Federal positions on protective j

measures.

The coordination vehicle is the Protective Action Support Team (PAST) (NRC Organization i

Charts H-1,Nt S-K) chaired by the NRC and with EPA, HHS and USDA as member agencies.

PAST agency representatives have the authority and expertise to provide assessments based on existing guidance without consulting their headquarters. They also keep the NRC informed of actions planned or undertaken by their respective agencies to deal with an emergency. As PAST chair, the NRC prepares the coordinated Federal positions that are available to States on request. When time permits, the NRC, as LFA, keeps FEMA informed of protective action developments and works with FEMA in presenting Federal positions to State authorities.

Assessments available thrvughout an emergency - When the NRC response is directed from headquarters (Initial Activation), the NRC Protective Measures Team (NRC Organization Charts H-H to K; L tc 0) contacts State authorities, offers assistance, and performs protective action assessments at the NRC Operations Center at headquarters, assisted by PAST members. The NRC Executive Team issues formal Federal positions if requested by the State or local governments or if there appears to be a serious problem with current licensee recommendations or State actions. The Protective Measures Team, PAST, and Executive Team can be contacted at the all-hours NRC Operations Center number (301/951-0550 until June 1994 when it will be changed due to the relocation of the NRC Operations Center).

During Expanded Activation (normally, within about 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br />), the responsibility for making protective action assessments is transferred to the NRC Protective Measures Coordinator (NRC Organization Chart S-K) at the Emergency Operations Facility near the plant. The PAST at the NRC Operations Center at headquarters remains in place and provides assistance by phone until another PAST is collocated with the NRC at the Federal Radiological Monitoring and Assessment Center (FRMAC) when it is established by the Department of Energy in the vicinity of the accident. The NRC Director of Site Operations replaces the Director of the Executive Team as issuing authority for official Federal positions. Once the NRC transfers its lead to the site, States can obtain assistance directly through NRC and State representatives in the Emergency Operations Facility.

Although an official Federal protective action position requires formal approval, the NRC expects technical discussions to be informal throughout a response. In the interest of protecting the public, any organization that identifies an issue regarding protective measures should discuss it directly with NRC or PAST experts without going through the NRC Executive Team or other formal channels. Similarly, PAST can assist States directly on applying EPA and HHS protective action guidelines.

If the plant is no longer a principal threat and no additional major radiological releases are expected, the Protective Measures Coordinator and the function of coordinating Federal protective action assessments relocate to the FRMAC.

Coonlinated inonitoring - As the LFA, the NRC does not perform field monitoring.

However, NRC personnel may be assigned to the FRMAC to help with this monitoring.

The NRC or the State can request Federal monitoring assistance directly from the Department af Enctgy (DOE) or through the DOE. Representative (NRC Organization Chart H.G) in the NRC Operations Center. DOE has the responsibility to coordinate Federal radiological monitoring. The NRC Operations Center at headquarters requests monitoring assistance from DOE whenever there is the threat of a major release (e.g., actual or projected core damage).

The Federal Liabon Officer (NRC Organization Chart H-G) in the NRC Operations Center at headquarters is informed of the status of the DOE monitoring assistance and acts as the point of contact for DOE and the NRC Site Team when they meet in the vicinity of an accident.

The NRC dispatches a Monitoring and Analysis Coordinator (NRC Organization Chart S-K) to the scene whenever DOE monitoring is requested. This coordinator meets with the DOE monitoring team, stays with its leader while the FRMAC is being activated, then works with the State and the PAST in the FRMAC to assess data and establish monitoring priorities and NRC protocol for releasing information. The Protective Measures Coordinator, who first reports to the Emergency Operations Facility, assumes these duties upon transferring to the FRMAC when the plant is no longer a principal threat.

Priority rnonitoring support to State -If a conflict arises between the State and the LFA or PAST in requesting Federal monitoring assistance, the State has first priority.

NUREG.1471 10

1 l

The NRC does not delay the release of monitoring data to the State or Federal organizations with statutory authorities related to protective actions. Data that has not been evaluated and checked are clearly identified as such. Any organization receiving such data should not fonvard them elsewhere unless the data indicate a need for urgent protective actions.

Exposure control-Radiation exposure control is essential for all personnel working in the vicinity of a nuclear emergency. NRC is responsible for its personnel and for others, such as PAST members, who directly support the agency. Other organizations are responsible j

for their own response personnel.

All NRC personnel (or personnel supporting the NRC) reporting to the scene of an accident before the NRC Field Office is established bring their own dosimetry and instruments and must receive a briefing on radiological conditions before going to the scene of the accident.

Most of these early arrivals work on or very near the site and their exposme control is the responsibility of the Protective Measures Coordinator and the Radiation Safety Coordinator (NRC Organization Chart S-1) at the Emergency Operations Facility (EOF), both of whom are members of the initial NRC Site Team.

After the NRC Field Office is established, the Field Office Health Physics Coordinator (NRC Organization Charf S-F) there obtains. data on offsite radiological conditions from the Radiation Safety Coordinator at the EOF and is responsible for exposure control for.

subsequent arrivals. All NRC and direct support personnel process through this field office unless exempted by the Protectia Measures Coordinator. The Health Physics Coordinator provides essential equipment (including dosimetry) and a briefing on radiological conditions before personnel may proceed to their work locations. Personnel assigned to potentially high radiation areas onsite may also be briefed, equipped, and tracked by the Radiation Safety Coordinator in the EOF.

The NRC Field Office also performs radiological monitoring at locations where personnel are housed and processes personnel going off shift.

Safeguards / Security Coordination with law enforcement authorities - The NRC response organization includes an Information. Assessment Team to help determine if the circumstances leading to an event include credible threats, actual or attempted sabotage. or actual or attempted theft of nuclear material.

If circumstances warrant, NRC notifies the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), Department of Justice, which then leads Federal law enforcement activities (including investigations) and coordinates those activities with State and local authorities. The NRC acts as Lead Federal Agency for radiological response activities and i

provides technical advice to the FBI, when requested, through a Safeguards Team Dircctor I

(NRC Organization Chart H-E) in the NRC Operations Center at headquarters or a Safeguards / Security Coordinator (NRC Organization Chart S-J) in the Emergency Operations Facility or Technical Support Center at the site of an emergency.

11

Coonfination with site securitypersonnel-The Safeguards / Security Coordinator also ensures that all Federal access to the site is in full accord with established site security procedures.

l Coordination and Support Response coordinators in eachfacility - The NRC assigns an Emergency Response Coonlinator (NRC Organization Charts S C,D,E,F,K) to each major facility (the Emergency Operations Facility, the Joint Information Center, the Disaster Field Office, and the Federal Radiological Monitoring and Assessment Center) to which NRC teams are assigned. These coordinators, who are experts on NRC response concepts, plans, and procedures, see that the response unfolds as planned and act as contacts for handling the unexpected. Their responsibilities are to advise NRC response personnel about procedures, methodologies, and concepts of e

operations respond to requests for staffing, administrative, logistical, and clerical support e

respond to requests for communications support e

provide input for the periodic status summary based on the most current information e

ens' ire timely distribution of status documents (status summaries, press releases, and e

situation reports, for example) within and among facilities communicate frequently with their counterparts.

e Another Emergency Response Coordinator accompanies the Director of Site Operations throughout an emergency. Coordinators with similar qualifications and responsibilities are also located at the NRC Operations Center at headquarters.

Centmllogistics control-The initial NRC Site Team establishes the NRC Field Office at a location convenient for subsequent arrivals to the area. In addition to exposure control, field office personnel coordinate such activities as staffing, acquiring and distributing equipment, arranging travel, locating response personnel, and relaying non-emergency-related messages.

I Early and continuous communication with the site - The licensee notifies the NRC of a potential problem over the Emergency Notifcation System (ENS). As the licensee staffs its response facilities, the ENS is used for continuous exchange of data only between the control room, the nearby Technical Support Center, the Emergency Operations Facility, the NRC regional office, and the NRC Operations Center at headquarters.

The ENS Communicator (NRC Organization Charts B-D, H-D, S-H) for the NRC organization with i

the lead for the NRC response is the only one asking questions to the licensee over the ENS. The ENS is routed for high reliability over dedicated lines to the AT&T FTS2000 network node nearest the site. Once the Health Physics Network is established (about a hour) radiological data will be exchange:1 over this link. In addition, " links" (bridges) or party lines will be established through the NRC Operations Center for exclusive use by the NRC to discuss agency status and assessment. They are the Management Counterpart Link, 13

4 Reactor Safety Counterpart Link and Protective Measures Link. There are dedicated communicators for each of these links (NRC Organization Charts B-C,D; H-D,K; S-H,1)

Supplemental and redundant communications -The NRC assumes that few public telephone lines will be available when needed in the vicinity of a major radiological emergency.

Critical links other than ENS are also routed from the site over dedicated lines, and the Federal Response Plan and other agreements help by providing for use of mobile telephone and radio equipment from other Federal organizations and for assistance in obtaining priority service from private telephone companies. The NRC utilizes a commercial electronic messaging service to distribute status summaries and press releases to computers, facsimile addresses, and telex machines to help ensure that all recipients get the same message at approximately the same time. The commercial service also provides alternative network routing.

Frequent reporting ofstatus to response participants - Status summaries provide information about the current status of the affected facility; NRC, Federal, and other radiological response actions; and an assessment of the degree of danger to the public. Signed by or for the NRC official with operational authority and reflecting the agency's current understanding of the situation, the brief documents are broadly distributed to help coordinate the efforts of all elements of the NRC response as well as those of other organizations when the NRC is Lead Federal Agency.

At the emergency site, the Status Summary Coordinator (NRC Organization Chart S-G) in the Emergency Operations Facility collects information from team coordinators and each of the Emergency Response Coordinators.

The composite status summaries include information about technical issues with implications for public safety, but are written in easy-to-understand terms for readers familiar with radiological effects but not necessarily with reactor terminology. Status summaries are written about every half hour in a rapidly evolving event, slowing to every two hours or so if the situation does not change significantly.

Status summaries may be quoted and redistributed without permission.

Conversely, recipients are expected to report errors, omissions, and additional information to the originating location (the NRC regional office, headquarters, or Site Team) or to contact the Status Officer in the Operations Center at headquarters.

Status Summaries are automatically sent to all major response facilities and to all Federal organizations expected to respond to an emergency. New computer and facsimile addresses, including State agencies and other organizations, can be added to the distribution list at any time by calling the NRC Headquarters Operations Center. In effect, the Operations Center can function as an exchange for all information related to the NRC and Federal responses, and staff at the Operations Center will try to relay messages for other organizations having communications difficulties. The all-hours telephone number of the Operations Center at headquarters is 301/951-0550 until June 1994 when it will be changed due to the relocation of the NRC Operations Center.

Liaison Federal Liaison Coordinated Fedemi management - The Federal response to a severe radiological accident is coordinated under two plans: the Federal Radiological Emergency Response Plan (FRERP) and the broader Federal Response Plan (FRP). When the reactor is licensed by j

j the NRC, that agency is the Lead Federal Agency. NRC plans and procedures incorporate several concepts for response management and liaison activities that are intended to ensure that Federal coordination among agencies and with other organizations is effective. Please see also Response Management, page 5.

Other Fedemi representatives in the NRC Opemtions Center-Representatives ofFEMA (NRC Oganization Chan H G), DOE, EPA, USDA, and HHS -- the last three are members of the Protective Actions Support Team (PAST) - report to the NRC Operations Center at headquarters during the agency's Initial Activation response mode. If deliberate threats or actions are believed to be involved, representatives of the Federal Bureau of Investigation may also report to the Operations Center.

Designated lead interfacefor Fedemi response activities - The Federal Liaison officer at the Operations Center at headquarters is the principal contact for knowing the location and operational status of all Federal organization response facilities, including those at the site to include the status of the NRC Site Team and DOE monitoring support.

knowing the status of Federal organization deployments to the site ensuring that all NRC teams are aware of other Federal organization headquarters e

activities readying the PAST members for deployment to the site, in cooperation with the 1

Federal Escort the status, make-up, and general activities of the following interagency groups called e

for in the Federal Radiological Emergency Response Plan and the Federal Response Plan:

Catastrophic Disaster Response Group (CDRG):

the headquarters-level i

coordinating group that addresses policy issues and support requirements from the Federal Coordinating Officer (FCO) and Emergency Support Function (ESF) elements in the field. It is chaired by the FEMA Associate Director, State and Local Programs and Support Directorate, and includes representatives from other Federal organizations. CDRG issues may require decisions or policy direction at the national level.

15

Emergency Support Team (EST):

an interagency group composed of headquarters staff from FEMA and other Federal organizations. Operating from the Emergency Information and Coordination Center at FEMA headquarters, it supports the CDRG and serves as the. central source of information at the national level regarding the status of all aspects of the Federal response. It also coordinates support for the FCO, Emergency Response Team, and ESF activities in the field, as necessary.

Emergency Response Team (ERT): an interagency team that assists the FCO in the fleid. It provides a forum for coordinating the overall Federal response, reporting on the conduct of specific operations, exchanging information, and resolving issues related to ESF and other response requirements. The NRC provides staff support.

ERT Advance Element (ERT-A): the initial interagency group to respond in the field to an accident. It is the nucleus of the full ERT [which operates from the Disaster Field Office (DFO)]. It is headed by a team leader from FEMA and is staffed with representatives from FEMA and other Federal organizations. The ERT-A deploys to the State Emergency Operations Center or other State-designated facility to begin identifying State requirements for Federal response assistance and to identify a location for the DFO. The NRC representative (the State Emergency Operations Center Coordinator) joins the ERT-A when it arrives.

However, the hazards assessment of the ERT-A may deploy directly to the location of the accident within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br />. The Rad Damage Assessment Coordinator from the NRC Site Team will accompany them to assure they are provided with the NRCs assessment of the radiological hazard to both them and the public.

Backup conduit for State requests for Fedemi assistance - State authorities may at times direct requests for various kinds of Federal assistance to an NRC contact, regardless of any other procedures that may be in effect. From the NRC Operations Center at headquarters, the Federal Liaison officer relays such State requests to the appropriate Federal organizations without delay and with the help of representatives of those organizations in the Operations Center; he or she then ensures that FEMA is informed. Such help is also available through the NRC Emergency Response Coordinator in each facility at the site.

State and Local Liaison Recognition ofState authority and responsibilities - Although the process varies among States, State and local officials have the ultimate r'esponsibility and, normally, the only authority for taking offsite actions to protect the public. Licensees are required to recommend actions, which State and local officials are expected to act on without conferring with the NRC.

Although NRC teams continually assess the risk to the public, discuss NRC positions with licensee and State personnel, and are prepared to reconunend actions if asked, the NRC does not normally volunteer recommendations. The purpose of this concept is to avoid inadvertent interference with State or local actions that may be under way.

NUREG-1471 16

Technicalliaison - The NRC, directly or through the PAST, serves as a liaison with State and local decisionmakers (including emergency management agencies) in regard to protective actions and application of Federal guidelines. The NRC also offers more detailed information and discussions concerning radiological and plant operational conditions to State and local technical personnel. This technical assistance is available through the NRC Operations Center at headquarters or through the licensee Emergency Operations Facility.

To help State and local response personnel locate the assistance they need and otherwise facilitate conununications, the NRC sends a representative to the State Emergency Operations Center early in a response. The State can obtain the NRCs assistance by calling the State Liaison (NRC Organization Chan H-G) in the NRC Operations Center or by face to face contact with NRC personnel at the site or other response facilities.

Single senior authority at the site - Either the NRC Director of Site Operations or the Deputy DSO for Offsite Operations serves as the direct senior liaison with the Str.te to ensure that the Federal radiological response adequately supports the State. This senior NRC liaison officer plans to collocate with the Federal Coordinating Officer under the Federal Response Plan. These two senior Federal officials are collocated with the State Coordinating Officer to provide a single Federal focus for State support. This collocation is expected to occur at the Disaster Field Office.

International Liaison International commitments - The NRC is obligated by international and bilateral agreements to provide information to other countries and the International Atomic Energy Agency about some kinds of radiological emergencies in the United States. An IntemationalLiaison (NRC Organization Chan H-G) at the Operations Center at headquarters ensures that e

all such obligations are met ad safety implications of the event are explained clearly e

incoming questions are answered e

the U.S. Department of State is kept fully and currently informed of all international a

information exchanges.

1 Congressional and White House Liaison Recognition of unique requirements - The NRC recognizes that U.S. Representatives and Senators have information needs that are different from those of other Federal organizations because they directly represent affected citizens in the Federal Government and are responsible for the quality of Federal legislation that may ensue.

Personnel normally responsible for handling inquiries from the Congress and the White House are responsible for the same functions during an emergency; inquiries to the normal 17 i

telephone numbers are answered directly or forwarded to the appropriate NRC contact at the time. In an event for which the NRC enters the Initial Activation Mode, the NRC Office of Congressional Affairs (OCA) (NRC Organization Chart li-G) sends one representative to the NRC Operations Center at headquarters. Some members of the J

remaining OCA staff deploy to the site as needed to support possible Congressional visits and to help minimize the impact on the licensee's response activities, while others remain in their offices to offer continuous support.

NRC congressionalliaison personnel at the site coordinate their support with their FEMA and other Federal counterparts who deploy to the Disaster Field Office under the Federal Response Plan.

Public Affairs Coordination ofpublic ir(formation - Participating organizations make a maximum effort to coordinate information before it is disseminated (except for Emergency Broadcast System messages). Although each organization is responsible for providing information relating to its own emergency responsibilities, they work together at aloint Infonnation Center (JIC) established by the licensee near the accident site. They also conduct joint press briefings to the maximum extent possible. The NRC, as 1.ead Federal Agency, provides coordinated public information from headquarters until operational authority is transferred to the site.

Other organizations may also issue information at other locations, but it should be coordinated through their representatives at the JIC, once that facility is established.

No interference with State and local advisories - State and local officials are the decisionmakers for taking and implementing protective actions and should act on the recommendations of the licensee without conferring with the NRC. The State is responsible for releasing information related to the impact of the emergency on the health and safety of its citizens, including sheltering and evacuation instructions. Organizations should make every effort not to release information that may impair the State and local decisionmaking process. Instead, any representative of a Federal organization who believes there is a.

problem with a State or local position should bring it to the attention of either the NRC or the PAST by contacting the NRC Operations Center at headquarters or the Federal Radiological Monitoring and Assessment Center in the vicinity of the accident.

11. ABSTRACT (Joo.ews or east The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) regulates nuclear power plants and certain other civilian nuclear f acilities and materials to protect the public health and safety and to preserve environmental quality. While the foremost objective of regulation is to prevent accidents, the NRC is also prepared to help its licensees and State and local governments mitigate the consequences of any that might occur. This document describes the NRC concept, purposes, and organization for performing essential functions during a Federal response to a severe reactor accident, with an emphasis on State and Federal coordination.
