GLOSSARY As used in these procedures, the terms listed below have meanings given in the definitions. - Underlined words cited in the definitions are cross-indexed.
. ALERT-An alert would be declared if there were an actual or l-potential safety problem at the plant.
Chances of a radioactive release are small.
An Alert condition is declared to ensure that emergency personnel, including radiation survey teams, are on standby in case the situation i
becomes more serious.
LILCO informs all government agencies of the Alert. condition and condt.;ts briefings for the press.
CONTAMINATION The presence of radioactive material in undesirable locations.
DECONTAMINATION The reduction or removal of radioactive contaminants from an object, person or area, as by cleaning or washing with water or detergents.
3 DOSE l
A quantity of energy absorbed from ionization per unit mass of tissue.
The rem is a unit of absorbed dose.
DOSIMETER A device that measures radiation dose.
EMERGENCY OPERATIONS CENTER (EOC)
The command, coordination, and communication center operated by LERO which will be activated to evaluate the radiological emergency and make and coordinate protective action recommendations along with other efforts that may be implemented for emergency response.
EMERGENCY PLANNING ZONE (EPZ)
The area about a nuclear power plant for which planning is.
accom)11shed to assure that prompt and effective actions can' be talen to protect the public in the event'of a radiological emergency.
The plume exposure EPZ is an area approximately 10 miles in radius around a nuclear power plant.
l Revision 0 e
=-
EVACUATION The protective action that entails the actual movement of people out of the affected area.
EXERCISE A preplanned event that tests a major portion of all of the basic elements within the radiological emergency response
. plan.
This event tests the capability of the emergency preparedness organization to successfully respond to a radiological emeraency that could result in offsite consequences.
GENERAL EMERGENCY A General Emergency would be declared of there were potential or actual fuel core damage and radiation releases were expected to exceed limits beyond which the government requires protective action.
LERO Local Emergency Response Organization MILLIREM (MREM)
One-thousandth (1/l,000) of a rem.
i MILLIROENTGEN (MR)
One-thousandth (1/l,000) of a Roentgen.
MONITORING, RADIOLOGICAL The operation of locating and measuring radioactivity by means of survey instruments that can detect and measure (as dose rates) ionizing radiation.
NUCLEAR POWER PLANT A commercial nuclear electric power generating facility.
NUCLEAR REACTOR l
A device in which a fission chain reaction can be initiated, maintained, and controlled.
Its essential j
component is a core with fissionable fuel.

- ONSITE' The area including and around the nuclear power plant enclosed by the property boundary line.
. PROTECTIVE ACTION GUIDELINES Projehted' radiological doses to individuals in the general
~ population and emergency workers, that warrant protective actions following a release of radioactive material.
PROTECTIVE ACTIONS' The measures taken in anticipation of, during, or after a I
release of radioactive material.
The purpose is to reduce
- the radiological doses to persons that would be likely to occur if the actions were not taken.
i RADIATION l'
l The emission or preparation of. waves or particles such as light, sound, radiant heat, or particles emitted by radioactivity including an particles, beta particles,y or all of the following:
alpha gamma rays, X-rays, neutrons, high-speed electrons, high-speed protons and other atomic j
particles.
)
RADIOLOGICAL EMERGENCY Any event involving actual or potential radiation exposure or radiological contamination to the environment.
I RELEASE l
Escape of radioactive materials into the environment, i
REM l
Acronym for Roentgen Equivalent, a unit of dose equivalents the dosage of ionizing radiation that will cause the same biological effect as one Roentgen of X-ray or gamma ray dosage.
ROENTGEN l -
A unit of radioactive dose of exposures the amount of X-radiation or gansna radiation-that will provide one electrostatic unit of charge (positive or negative) in one cubic centimeter of dry air at standard pressure and tempereture conditions.

I SHELTERING The protective action consisting of going indoors, closing
~ doors and windows, and turning off ventilation systems.
i SITE AREA EMERGENCY This cilassification would be declared if there were actual or potential major failures of plant systems.
At this level, radioactive releases which might require people living near the site boundary to take protective action may occur.
If a Site Area Emergency is declared, emergency _
personnel would report to their stations, radiation survey teams would.be dispatched, and government agencies and the public would be notified.
FOURCE TERM The amount of (curies) radioisotope released to the environment, often expressed as a function of time (i.e.,
curies /second).
THERMOLUMINESCENT DOSIMETER (TLD)
A dosimetry badge worn by workers in the nuclear industry, used to measure possible exposure to ionizing radiation.
The TLD has to be sent to a laboratory to be read.
UNUSUAL EVENT This classification would be declared of there were potential for a safety' At this level, there may be no need problem, but-there had been no release of radiation.

Fotassius Iodide (EI) Distribution Instructions 2.
General Backaround on EI
- 5 KI.* blocks radioiodine which might be ingested or inhaled j
by an exposed person, from entering the thyroid 31 sad by saturating the gland with monradioactive iodine.
If radiciodine exposure has occurred or is anticipated, the Bospital Administrator or his designee can recommend the use of KI as a protective action in conjunction with sheltering.
gecause KI works by saturating the thyroid gland with nonradioactive iodine before radiciodines reach the thyroid, it is very taportant to take EI shortly before or soon after any exposure to radiciodine.
This concept is illustrated by the fact that KI is over 95 percent effective when taken at the time of exposure to radiciodine and is only 50 percent effective when taken 3-4 hours after exposure.
It is important to remember that II protects only the thyroid gland and does not protect the rest of the body from radiation exposure.

Recommended Dose and Freauency:
l l
l l
The recommended dosage is one (1) 130 mg. tablet per day i
(equivalent to 100 mg. of iodine) to all individuals over l
one year of age and one-half (%) of a 130 mg. tablet per I
day (equivalent to 50 mg. of iodine) to infants under one (1) year of age.
i l
EI will not be required after ten (10) days if other l
i protective measures are taken.
These protective measures i
could facaude intertuption of contaminated milk supplies or evacuation.
Radioiodine already present in the body but blocked from 5
entering the thyroid gland by EI will continue to circulate for up to 43 hours4.976852e-4 days <br />0.0119 hours <br />7.109788e-5 weeks <br />1.63615e-5 months <br /> after cessation of exposure.
Thus it takes the body two (2) days to eliminate radioiodine by renal azeration.
