radioactive plume. The EPZ for this pathway consists of an area of  :

approximately ten miles in radius around the fixed nuclear facility.

(The exact size and configuration of the plume exposure pathway EPZ has been determined in relation to local emergency response needs and capabilities as~they are affected by conditions such as demo-  !

graphy, topography, access routes, and jurisdictional boundaries.  !

, The plume exposure pathway EPZ for the Limerick nuclear facility is l shown in Appendix 2.)  :

U. Political Subdivision - Any county, city, borough, township or incorporated town within the Commonwealth.

V. Projected Dose - An estimate of the radiation dose which affected individuals could potentially receive if protective actions are not taken.

W. Protective Action Guide (PAG) - A projected radiation dose which warrants protective action by individuals.

VII. SITUATION The Limerick G4nerating Station is a fixed nuclear generating facility operated by the Philadelphia Electric Company in Limerick Township, Montgomery County. An incident at the Limerick Generating Station could result in a radiological release affecting the area surrounding the facility.

Portions of Chester County are included within the Plume Exposure Pathway EPZ of the Limerick Generating Station. An incident at Limerick may require some type of protective response. Protective responses may include sheltering, evacuation, the administration of thyroid blocking drugs to emergency workers, or some combination thereof.

Protective measures may also be required for the protection of agricultural, food and dairy products within the ingestion exposure pathway EPZ.

Elected officials at each level of government are charged in the Pennsylvania Emergency Management Services A:t (P.L. 1332) with the responsibility of protecting the health, safety and well-being of persons within their jurisdiction.

Municipalities located (in whole or in part) within the Limerick Plume Exoosure Pathway EPZ in Chester County include:

VIII. CONCEPT OF OPERATIONS A. Governing Principle The governing principle of this plan is that the persons and governments within the Plume Exposure Pathway EPZ of the Limerick Generating Station will take protective responses in the event of a nuclear incident. Depending upon the seriousness of the incident...

such responses could include sheltering or evacuation. In event of evacuation, a system of reception and mass care centers will been established. An assumption of this plan is that 60% of the population to be evacuated will relocate to private homes and hotels / motels. Thus, the requirement for mass care will be designation of mass care facilities for 50% of the Chester County EPZ population, or approximately 28,245 persons.

B. Notification Notification and alerting procedures concerning incidents at the Limerick Generating Station are detailed in Annex C.

C. Emergency Response Actions In the event of an incident at the Limerick Generating Station, Chester County will base its response actions on the specific incident classifications, as outlined in Appendix b.

i ANNEX A DIRECTION AND CONTROL ,

3 I. PURPOSE

^

To identify the means for decision-making and coordination of Chester County's response to an incident at the Limerick Generating Station.

II. RESPONSIBILITY .

l A. The Chester County Conunissioners have the responsibility for the safety and protection of the public within Chester County. The Chester County Director of Emergency Services reports to the County Commissioners,. as do all county departments and agencies.

l B. The Chester County Director of Emergency Services _is administra-

tively responsible for the operations of the Chester County Communi-i cations Center, which, with some exceptions, provides 24 hour2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />
central dispatch and communications for fire, police and emergency
medical services in the County. In the cases where the county 1

communications center does not dispatch specific services, telecom-munication capability exists with those services.

I C. Overall direction and control of emergency operations will be

. coordinated from the Chester County Emergency Operations Center j (EOC) located in the Hazlett Building, 14 E. Biddle St., West j) "

Chester, PA. The Center is organized, equipped and staffed, when augmented by mobilized emergency personnel, to maintain 24-hour operations. The Chester County Department of Emergency -Services Director is responsible for ensuring that the E0C is at all times capable of being operated on a protracted 24-hour basis.

l

0. The Hazlett building is also the location of the Communications ,
Center, which is responsible for staffing DES administrative  !
telephones and the dedicated telephone line from the Limerick l

, Generating Station as well as all county telecommunications networks i and emergency telephones. Maintenance and operation of the automatic computer assisted telephone notification system (RECALL),

and of the public alert siren system, is also a responsibility of the Conununications Center pursuant to applicable procedures and direction. Upon EOC activation, the Communications Center functions

as part of the EOC Communications Group.

III. CONCEPT OF OPERATION A. Notification of an incident at the Limerick Power Station will be received and recorded as outlined in Annexes B and C by the Communications Center.

I 8. The Communications Center will notify the DES Outy Officer, who is a

- UES' staff member assigned and available on a 24-hour basis, as well

j. v . as the DES Director.

- . . , 9--y-r-u.y.y .,---,w. .,,..,qwyi , , ,y.,--ywpu.-,,w--.ym--e9--9.--. , , , , + . ,

C. The Communications Center will initiate notification of key

' operations personnel and EOC staff upon direction and by incident level specific procedures using the RECALL system and radio links. *

. In the event of system failure, radio alerting and manual telephone based on lists updated quarterly will be utilized.

D. The EOC will be activated selectively or completely depending on the incident level. As EOC Group Chiefs and Officers activate, the Communicat1~on Center will provide updated printouts /sumaries and formal coordination will evolve to specific E0C ' staff in the EOC.

E. All EOC staff groups and officers will function according to formal Implementing Procedures developed in support of this plan.

F. County government technical, administrative, and resource support will be provided by DES staff and Commissioners staff.

G. The Comissioners Staff personnel listed in Appendix 1 may not be present in the E0C on a regular basis, but are available to provide assistance and advice as necessary to DES /E0C staff. Tne Commissioners staff group includes the Manager of Finance, the Personnel Manager, the Purchasing Agent, the Director of Economic Development, and their respective staffs.

H. The response to any disaster, whether a major flood or an incident at a Nuclear Power Plant, has certain common elements. One of the most important elements is the need for resources to facilitate proper response. These resources may be additional personnel, consumables, services or guidance. In addition, there may be a need to purchase materials or equipment or obtain these on loan. If the Comissioners declare a Disaster Emergency for the County the provisions of the Emergency Management Services Act allow the use of procedures which are outside normal channels. For example, purchases which normally require bids do not have to be bid in an emergency.

I. Inter-relationship with state and federal governments, local municipalities, and other involved organizations have been defined in this plan and in applicable supporting Standard Operating Procedures and Implementing Procedures.

. ANNEX C ALERT / NOTIFICATION l .

i

! I. PURPOSE To establish procedures, identify tasks and designate responsibilities ,

for alerting emergency management personnel at county and municipal  :

i levels, alert schools and special facilities, and establish a system for the provision of alert and notification to the population residing i witMn the Chester County portion of the Li:nerick plume exposure pathway l EPZ. l II. RESPONSIBILITIES  !

1 i A. The Director of the Chester County Department of Emergency Services l

.has the overall responsibility for the alert and notification of l emergency personnel,- school districts, special facilities and the i l general public within the plume exposure pathway EPZ. The Director  !

of the Chester Countyr0epartment of Emergency Services in consulta-

] tion with Pennsylvania Emergency Management Agency is responsible for the activation of the public alert and emergency broadcast systems. Municipal emergency management directors are responsible for verifying that route alerting, as a supplementary alert l procedure, is conducted where necessary. I B.. ~ The Philadelphia Electric Company is responsible for installing and i l maintaining a public alert siren system throughout the plume

! exposure pathway EPZ. ,

III. PUB'LIC ALERT /NOTIFIdATION SYSTEM The primary Chest 6r County public ale t system for the Limerick Generating Station consists of 67 high' output radio controlled electro-mechanical sirens strategically situated throughout the Chester County

, portion of the plume exposure. pathway emergency planning zone. These i sirens, which are remotely controlled by the County Department of Emergency Services, are the audible signal for the public to tune to the local Emergency Broadcast System station (WCAU 1210 AM or WC0J 1420 AM) for information. The siren system is an attention getting signal. It is not an evacuation alarm.

The public afert system will be activated whenever there is a need to inform the public of any significant change of plant status or when the public must bel informed of a protective action. Any activation of the system will be coordinated with the Pennsylvania Emergency Management

Agency (PEMA). Each siren site is a separate and distinct address; t
therefore, it is possible to activate'one or all of the sirens in the l

county. To activate all of the. sirens within the EPZ, the three risk counties will coordinate their activation. This coordination will be

. arranged through the Pennsylvania Emergency Management Agency. ,

\

1 .I 1

C-1 Draft 9

1 Each siren is equipped to provide the capability of sounding the steady

< s. three to five minute " Alert" signal (this will be the tone used' for the

, Limerick Public Alert) and the rising / falling wail or " Attack" signal. "

. For testing purposes, " growl" and " silent" tests are available.

The activation control point for this system is located within the

.. Chester County communications center which is staffed and operational on a 24-hour basis each day of the year. Activation information is passed from the county control point to a base station radio via computer-conditioned telephone lines. The base station is located centrally within the EPZ. (Back-up base station is also available.) Siren

activation, siren failure, power failure, etc., is reported for display on the county computer screen, printer and magnetic disk log.

In the event of any system failures, the siren site relays a message to the central control point of the specific county. The failure will be displayed on the video terminal and printed in hard copy by the printer. Chester County will then ensure the dispatch of appropriate route alerting teams, i Route alerting has been developed as a supplement to the public alert system and is implemented as necessary in the event of public alert system failure. Route alerting is to be accomplished by alert teams i

travelling designated routes announcing that there is an emergency at the Limerick Generating Station and that individuals should tune to their EBS station. This is a municipal responsibility. Details of the route alerting system, assignments and routes can be found in Appendix C-6 and Annex E of this plan.

IV. MESSAGE VERIFICATION A. Verification of incident notifications will be made by the Chester County Communications Center via telephone to the source of the notification.

B. When incident notifications are received by communications center personnel, they will acknowledge receipt of message and officially log the information on the Incident Notification Form (Appendix C-3). Telephone messages will include the name and identification of-the individual calling and a telephone number to which a return ,

telephone call can be made for verification.

C. This information will be immediately furnished to appropriate officials and agencies as provided for in Appendix C-2.

D. All other emergency personnel should verify notifications / messages in accordance with appropriate agency procedures.

V. CONCEPT OF OPERATIONS Chester County will base its alert / notification response actions to an incident at the Limerick Generating Station upon the specific incident i

s classification in effect.

PUBLIC ALERT SYSTEM J

()  :

I. Public Alert System The Public Alert System of the Limerick Generating Station consists of 166 high output electro-mechanical sirens strategically situated throughout the approximate ten-mile emergency planning zone. These sirens, which are remotely controlled by the County Emergency Management Agencies, are the audible signal for the public to tune to the local Emergency Broadcast system station for information. The siren system is an attention getting signal. It is not an evacuation alarm.

The Public' Alert System will be activated whenever there is a need to inform the public of any significant change of plant status or when the public must be informed of any emergency situation. Any activation of the system will be coordinated by the Pennsylvania Emergency Management

-Agency (PEMA).

Since the Plume Exposure Pathway' Emergency Planning Zone includes three counties (Berks, Chester and Montgomery), the Public Alert System is divided into three distinct sectors. These sectors correspond to the three county areas of the EPZ.

The Public Alert System consists of the 166 individual sirens (Federal

/ Thunderbolt Model 1U00) distributed throughout the EPZ within three sectors attributed to county jurisdiction. Within each sector each siren site is a separate and distinct address. Therefore, it is possible to activate one or all of the sirens in a county. To activate i

all 166 sirens within the EPZ, the three counties will coordinate activation. This three segment coordination is a requirement of the Pennsylvania Emergency Management Agency.

i The selectivity of sites is ob'tained by the use of an interactive (two-way) digitally coded status and control unit for each siren. This type of control unit uses a 32-piece or " bit" word to command a response.

Each of the three counties have a Central Station which sends the digital command word or words to the siren sites of that county. The siren site (s) receive the digital signal, verify the data and then react accordingly. Additionally, upon receipt of the command or when

" interrogated" by the central control station, the site responds with status data to indicate an acknowledgement of the command, report siren activation or malfunction and any power failure.

Siren Signals l

Each siren is equipped to provide the capability of sounding the steady -l three to five minute " Alert" signal (this will be the tone used for the l

Limerick Public Alert) and the rising /f alling wail or " Attack" signal. '

For testing purposes, " growl" and " silent" tests are available. l C-1-1 Uraft 9

System Configuration .

As previously indicated, t'he Limerick EPZ is composed of three counties

(. (Berks, Chester, Montgomery), each having a central control point for =

activating and interrogating the sirens of its own county. Activation information is passed from the county central control point to a VHF-FM digital base station radio via computer-conditioned telephone lines.

The base station is located, centrally within the EPZ. A second "back- '

up" base station is also available. The three counties share the single base station; however, due to the short duration needed to send the activation signal (2 seconds per county), a conflict or celay is not anticipated. Each of the siren-remote controllers transmits a digital signal to the base station to be interpreted by the central control  ;

point for status information. Siren activation, failure, power failure, etc., are reported for display on the county computer screen, printer 4

and magnetic disk log.

In the event of any system failures, the siren site will relay a message to the central control point of the specific county. The failure will i

be displayed on the video terminal and printed in hard copy by the l printer. The county then will ensure the dispatch of supplemental route alert teams (reference Appendix C-6).

II. Public Notification System A. Definition and Authority:

- The Emergency Broadcast System (EBS) exists to furnish an expedited means of furnishing real time communications to the public in the event of war, threat of war, or grave national, regional or local crisis. An amergency system such as EBS is authorized by Sections 1, 4(i) and (o), and 303 (r) of the Communications Act of 1934 as amended. This is also in consonance with the Philadelphia Extended Operational Area Emergency Communications Committee and the Pennsylvania Emergency Communications Committee. -

8. Purpose The purpose of the Emergency Broadcast System (EBS) is to provide real time communication, information, direction and instruction in the event of any emergency requiring public action including an emergency at the Limerick Generating Station. The Emergency Broadcast System will be activated to provide specfic information to the public following activation of the Public Alert System of the Limerick Generating Station.

C. Activation At the request of designated Local State or Federal officials, the

' Emergency Broadcast System may be activated. Appropriate authen-tication will be required. The designated officials will use the following format when contacting the EBS station: "This is [NAME/

O lG j C-1-2 Draft 9

TITLE] of Chester County. I request that the emergency broadcast system be activated for Chester County due to an emergency at the

/ Limerick Generating Station." m

\N " Authentication Code .

Upon verification of authentication code, the EBS station personnel, ^

in conjunct. ion with the designated official, will determine broadcast details such as the use of live or recorded messages, the time of broadcast and the like.

D. Broadcast Upon verification of authentication and a determination to utilize live or recorded material, the EBS station may:

1. Broadcast the following announcements:

"We interrupt this program due to an emergency affecting Chester County. Important information will' fo'llow."

2. Transmit the Emergency Broadcast System Two Tone Attention Signal for 20-2b seconds.
3. Broadcast the following announcement and broadcast the emergency material:

p, "We interrupt this program to activate the Emergency Broadcast 1

V System for Chester County because of an emergency at the Limerick Generating Station. Important information will follow."

-- EBS Message #1

-- EBS Message #2 (reference EBS messages

-- EBS Message #3 in Annex D)

-- EBS Message #4 l etc. l E. Termination Upon receipt of the termination notice from the activating off"icial, make the following' announcement:

"This concludes operations under the Chester County Emergency Broadcast System."

APPENDIX C-2

//S CHESTER COUNTY NOTIFICATION SEQUENCE e Upon receipt of notification of an incident at the plant, the County Commonications Center will verify the notification if it is not received ,

via the dedicated telephone line. The Communications Center will activate notifications as directed by the DES Outy Officer .(assigned on a twenty-four hour basis) or the DES Director, using the RECALL system.

As E0C staff arrive at the E0C, they will be provided with RECALL printout indicating notifications accomplished, and will initiate remedial notifications and verify notifications for their respective areas pursuant to appropriate implementing procedures.

In rapidly developing situations requiring expeditious public alert, the Communications Center can, on direction of the DES duty officer or Director, activate the EBS network and appropriate sirens, simulta-neously with the initiation of the RECALL notification sequence. In all other cases, the DES PIO will assume responsibility for EBS activation under direction of the DES Director through the Commuriications Center, and for coordination of public alert. The Communications Group assumes responsibility for all other notification and for coordinating verification actions.

See Appendix B-1 for the DES priority call list.

ANNEX L in s ACTIVATION OF MASS CARE CENTERS c,

I. ACTIVATION ORDER The order to activate one or more mass care centers is issued by the County Director of Emergency Services or his designee in his absence.

Once the order to activate is issued, the Mass Care Officer or I designated alternate is notified, who in turn notifies the appropriate Mass Care Center Managers.

II. ACTIONS OF MASS CARE CENTER MANAGERS

- A. Acknowledge receipt and make a written record of the information  ;

?

received, including date and time. '

i

B. Issue, directly or with assistance from other immediately available personnel, specific mobilization instructions to mass care center

, staff members assigned to the first shift and directly concerned with mass care center operations. (The call out of staff shall be conducted in accordance with Red Cross Standard Operating Procedures for Mobilization.)

C. Issue, directly or with assistance, specific standby instructions O for second, and if applicable, third shift mass care center personnel directly concerned with relief operations of the centers.

D. Confirm with person in charge of the building the details of the t predisaster agreements for operations, and then proceed to open the mass care center.

E. Arrange for heating, lighting, cooking, sanitary facilities, water and for substitutes if regular facilities are disrupted. Obtain j other supplies and additional equipment as previously planned.

1 F. Request support through the County Mass Care Group Chief for. .

required health, police and transportation services.and supplies.

l G. Incoming mass care center staff will be briefed and assigned j responsibilities and commence setting up activities.

H. Use telephones when possible between the mass care center and the Emergency Operations-Center and within the center itself. If telephones are unavailable, maintain communications via ARES or messenger service. A public address system may be utilized for announcements within the facility if desired.

I. Upon arrival, evacuees will have been monitored for radiation i p~ exposure when BRP has directed that the situation warrants such and g decontaminated if necessary (reference Annex M, Appendix 1). All i

  • l L-4-1 Draft 9 I l'

i

p2rsons will be registered and fa2ily units kept tog;;thsr if at all possible. Upon completion of registration, forward a copy of the registry to the Mass Care Coordinator located at the EOC.

e t -

J. As each family or individual is registered, they are assigned space. Cots, blankets and chairs are furnished. If quantities are insufficient, then the infirm, aged, expectant mothers, mothers with

! infants and the handicapped should be given first consideration. '

Separate quarters' are provided for unmarried men and unmarried j women, if possible. -

1 K. Establish and enforce fire and safety regulations and arrange for adequate police and guard protection.

L. Maintain records of all borrowed and purchased equipment and keep i records of all mass care activities. Use this to compile a daily report to be submitted to the Mass Care Coordinator located at the l Emergency Operations Center.

i 4

M. Select an Advisory Council from those being cared for, which will  :

i assist the Mass Care Center Manager in enforcing health, sanitary, l

! and safety regulations; assign duties to the center inhabitants and

advise the manager and staff in dealing with mass care center.

4 '

problems. If the center operation is prolonged, it may be desirable

for the Advisory Council to assist in establishing a recreation
. program.

N. Provide for janitorial service and the maintenance of essential utilities _(e.g., light, heat, water and toilets).

O. Post large printed signs designating a place or rooms for men's toilet, women's toilet, registration and inquiry, information, monitoring / decontamination area, clothing and feeding; also, signs for smoking regulations, luggage storerooms, the manager's office and others as required.

P. Bathing facilities should be provided for all persons, if possible, .

but especially for babies and small children. Shower facilities should be provided for the monitoring / decontamination process.

Q. Feeding must be conducted in a separate room other than the sleeping quarters and space must be provided for a kitchen, dining room and a storage area or pantry storeroom adjacent to the kitchen.

R. A room will be set aside as a clothing distribution point for providing suitable clothing as required, for individuals undergoing decontamination.

' ~

S. A Registered Nurse should head the Miss Care Center Aid Station to '

assist persons requiring special care. If a Registered Nurse is not i immediately available, the best-qualified medically trained individual should serve. Medical and nursing supplies should be stored in a location convenient to or within the emergency medical

station.

i T. WhIn tha amount of supplics warrants it, tha Mass Care Center Manager assigns a storekeeper to assist him. Duties are: receiving and checking incoming supplies and equipment, safeguarding supplies and equipment, maintaining an inventory and issuing properly -

requisitioned supplies-on-hand receipts. Articles stored for individuals housed within the mass care center will be plainly

~

marked and stored at the owner's risk.

U. Pets are not allowed in the human living area of mass care i

centers. The Mass Care Center Manager may try to provide for pets in a separate area or enclosure with pet owners required to provide for their care. Guide dogs for the handicapped are not considered to be in this category, and they will remain with their masters in the center. Where applicable, activate agreements made with the

, Humane Society for sheltering pets.

V. After the mass care center has been closed, the manager will take the necessary steps to prepare the center and grounds for return to the owner. The manager will then prepare and submit a final report to the Mass Care Coordinator located at the Emergency Uperations Center. The report shall be in accordance with established i

reporting policies and procedures.

W. Report to the County Mass Care Coordinator, via telephone or ARES, at least once every two hours, the number of: (1) residents (2) persons monitored / decontaminated. Also report any special needs, problems, etc.

III. SPONTANEOUSLY ACTIVATED MASS CARE CENTERS j In times of emergency, it is quite possible that a designated mass care center, or .even a facility not so designated, might be opened spontan-

, eously. When that happens, it might be desirable to continue its operation. Upon request, the Red Cross may be able to provide a Mass

! Care Center Manager and assume responsibility from that point on for the management and funding of it. It should be made known to the person (s) responsible for the facility that Red Cross management must be accepted in order for the Red Cross to fund its operation, and any unusual costs i

incurred before the Red Cross assumes management responsibility are not the responsibility of the Red Cross. It is desirable to record this i understanding in writing if possible, and to include appropriate

notations in the -log.
IV. RECORUS AND FISCAL MATTERS A. Records In addition to daily reports, agreements, supply requisitions a'nd hand receipts for supplies, the following records shall be prepared:
1. A list of all equipment borrowed from government sources with instructions as to disposition when facilities are closed.

9 L-4-3 Uraft 9

2. A list of all othsr equipment barrowed from private sources and its disposition. When the borrowed equipment is returned to private owners, a signed hand receipt should be obtained.

w O' 3. A list of all Red Cross-owned supplies and equipment with instructions regarding transfer to another disaster area or to storage.

4. Reports of loss or damage to both borrowed equipment and buildings. ~
5. A list of outstanding expenditures for direct purchases of

. supplies and services.

6. A final after-action report to include:
a. A complete summary of all activities including statistics on number housed, fed, given medical care, evacuated or received from other counties or states.
b. Names and addresses of all workers, both voluntary and paid.
c. Overall narrative report to include recommendations, changes 4

' in procedures, suggested improvements and repairs required relating to any damages to the facility or losses or damages to equipment.

8. Fiscal Matters When a mass care center is operated by Red Cross Managers, the Red Cross will pay the operational costs of the center (s) as an outright grant.

V. USE OF GOVERNMENT DONATED F000 A. Normally, if mass care centers are located in schools and school cafeterias are used, food supplies on hand are usually sufficient for immediate needs. Procurement of additional food supplies may be made per agreement with the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture and the General Services Bureau of Government Donated Foods.

8. The American Red Cross is authorized to make the necessary requests.

PURPDSE To specify the County's overall plan for radiation protection of the general public and offsite emergency workers, including incident assessment, radioactive plume monitoring, protective action measures, decontamination monitoring of the general public and offsite emergency workers to include their clothing and equipment, and disposal of radiologically contaminated waste. Information on evacuation and means of disseminating emergency information to the public is included in Annexes J and K respectively.  !

IV. CONCEPT OF OPERATIONS ,

A. County Department of Emergency Services (DES)

The County DES will rely upon the Bureau of Radiation Protection, through PEMA, for incident assessment, field monitoring, and  !

representation at the Onsite Emergency Operations Facility for the receipt, analysis, and coordination of field monitoring data.

l l The County UES will provide for: protection of emergency workers l via training, distribution of dosimetry and KI; decontamination l l monitoring of the general public, as well as federal, state, county i /7 and municipal emergency workers; decontamination monitoring of l

M-3 Uraft 9 l

n -

pertinent psrsenal items including v:hicles and emergIncy equipment; appropriate medical referrals for further monitoring, decontamina-tion and treatment; maintenance and distribution of dosimetery,

, SN .

chargers, survey meters, KI in tablet form and related record c--

keeping forms to municipalities and decontamination centers; maintenance of a, radiological exposure record system; certification of farmers as emergency workers for access to livestock kept within the plume exposure pathway EPZ; and training of personnel to carry

. out radiological exposure control plans.
3. Pennsylvania Emergency Management Agency (PEMA)

The Pennsylvania Emergency Management Agency: coordinates with BRP, the utility, other state agencies, federal government agencies and L risk counties for' protective actions of the public and emergency workers; provides counties during the emergency periodic situation reports including incident assessment and plume exposure informa-L tion; specifies procedures for decontamination of emergency i personnel and their clothing; assists FRMAP (Federal Radiological 3 Monitoring and Assessment Plan) personnel with pertinent logistics, j information related to the disposal of radiation contaminated waste

, materials generated from the general public and offsite emergency workers; distributes dosfmetry and KI to county emergency management 1 agencies and specifies' implementation of a comprehensive inventory-2 i

maintenance program for those items; collects TL0s and appropriate records from the county after each incident; assists the Department

] of Health with the distribution of potassium iodide.

1 j C.' Bureau of Radiation Protection (BRP) l  %

The Bureau of Radiation Protection is the state agency that will conduct the technical tasks of incident assessment and air moni-toring for detection and definition of the radioactive plume. BRP j

calculates projected radiation doses to the whole body and thyroid

! and reports these girojections,:as.well as acutal radiation exposure rates and total dosas received by affected areas, to PEMA. BRP recommends protective actions based on its information and analysis of the situation. BRP interprets the Department of Environmental j

Resource's analysis of environmental, agricultural and foodstuffs l sampling, and reports these findings, as appropriate, to PEMA, the j Department of Health and the Department of Agriculture. BRP 4 0 collates the state, federal and licensee data for comprehensive technical analysis and transmits its information to PEMA wno, in turn, relays appropriate information through emergency management channels. ,

D. TLD Service Contractor t

During an incident and at PEMA's request, the TLD service contractor ,

will conduct mechanical " reading" of the TLus used by emergengy workers. The contractor will relay the readings and related l information to BRP or PEMA.

E. Municipal Govsenments Each municipal government within the plume exposure pathway EPZ will yh assist the county in issuing dosimetry and KI to emergency workers c=<

l () within its area at the SITE EMERGENCY classification.

l l-F. Emergency Workers .

-1 In addition to the performance of assigned tasks, emergency workers 1 are responsible for utilizing their dosimeters, KI, and Dosimetry-XI

Report Form as prescribed (reference Appendix 2.Section IV) and for ~
undergoing decontamination monitoring (reference Appendix 1,Section I.D.).

[: The uppermost limit of radiation exposure is set by the Bureau of

! Radiation Protection (BRP) at 25 rem whole body exposure, and this limit should not be exceeded except for authorized life saving missions (reference Appendix 2,Section IV.B.4). Emergency workers should strive to keep any exposure as low as reasonably achievable (reference Appendix 2 Section IV).

G. Decontamination Monitoring Teams

Decontamination monitoring teams will mcnitor (meaning check with a CD V-700 survey meter) members of the public and emergency workers to ascertain if individuals are contaminated with a radiation emitting substance. BRP has set the action level for determining whether individuals are contaminated at U.0b nH/hr (milliroentgens i per hour) above background. If an individual is contaminated at i s 0.05 mR/hr above background or more, then the decontamination monitoring team must decontaminate the individual. Procedures for

, decontamination monitoring teams are included in Appendix 1 to this Annex.

V. RADIATION EXPOSURE CONTROL FOR THE GENERAL PUBLIC j A. Protective Actions I

! 1. The County may receive recommendations for protective action measures from PEMA or the Limerick Generating Station. 1

2. The two primary protective action options for the general public

)

are Sheltering and Evacuation; the plans for implementation of

, these are described in Annexes C, D, and J.

B. Decontamination Monitoring

The County DES is responsible for providing decontamination monitor-ing of the public housed at mass care centers located within the j- county. People evacuated to support counties will receive decontam-ination monitoring services from tne respective support county.

l Utilizing trained radiation monitors equipped with survey meters,

! the public may be monitored for radiation contamination at mass care centers. Appendix 1 to this Annex sets forth the procedures for s decontamination monitoring at mass care centers.

VI. EMERGENCY WORKER RADIATION EXPOSURE CONTROL Unlike the general public, emergency workers with assignments within the

( plume exposure pathway EPZ are not always able to take shelter and they cannot evacuate the area due to their mission responsibility. Other protective measures available to emergency workers are enumerated below.

A. Dosimetry .

1. Each emergency worker assigned tasks within the plume exposure pathway EPZ will be provided two self-reading dosimeters (one CD V-730 or one DCA-622, and one CD V-742) and one thermolumi-nescent dosimeter (TLD).* The self-reading dosimeters enable the worker to monitor himself during the emergency for total radiation dose received; the TLD is an independently read (by the TLD service contractor) device that is generally considered to be more dependable, accurate and precise than the self- "

reading dosimeters. Each emergency worker is responsible for ,

following the dosimetry procedures, including record keeping.

Appendix 2 to this Annex sets forth guidance and procedures related to dosimetry for emergency workers. Appendix 3 to the Annex is a distribution list which specifies the amounts of  ;

dosimetry, dosimeter chargers, bottles of KI (see paragraph B

  • below), and survey meters (see paragraph V.B. above) for each particular emergency organization.
2. The " Receipt Form for Dosimetry-Survey Meters-XI" (reference.

Attachment E to Appendix 2) and the " Acknowledgement of Receipc.

by Emergency for Dosimetry-KI and Survey Meters" form (reference Attachment F to Appendix 2) will be used for inventory control-of the equipment end KI distributed to emergency workers.

3. Federal and state government personnel are expected to provide their own dosimetry and thyroid gland radioprotective drugs.

B. Thyroid Gland Protective Drug

1. The accumulation of radiotodines (radioactive isotopes of the common element iodine) .in the thyroid gland is a pctential threat during a nuclear power plant incident. Potassium iodide (KI) is a drug that acts as a blocking agent to radioiodine, preventing the radioiodine from lodging in the thyroid gland.
2. KI tablets are predistributed with dosimetry by PEMA to the '

f County DES, who will distribute it to risk municipalities at tne ALERT classification.- Individual workers will receive KI at SITE EMERGENCY. Liquid KI is predistributed by PEMA to risk hospitals for use by the hospital staff, medical complement, and the patients.

  • Presently there are insufficient numbers of dosimeters on hand. PEMA is in O~ the process of acquiring the dosimeters needed.

1. ..

I 3 KI snould be taken enly on the advice of thm Sqcretary of th7 Pennsylvania Department of Health. General information for the emergency worker regarding KI and protection of the thyroid

% gland is included in Appendix 2 to this Annex. a l

C. Double Clothing (Rain Gear) Protection l 1

l Emergency workers can use their personal rain gear as a prevention against deposition of contamination on the body and personal

.l

{

clothing / uniform. A rain hat or other head cover such as a helmet I or winter hat, boots or galoshes with pant legs tucked in, rain coat or winter coat with the collar turned up, and gloves offer effective I

protection by minimizing skin and clothing / uniform exposure to contaminants that may be present. Extremes in the weather can make the use of double clothing extremely uncomfortable; therefore, BRP will issue an appropriate advisory through emergency management channels at the time of an incident if double clothing protection is i to be employed.

i D. Respiratory Protection Should unforeseen circumstances occur whereby emergency workers f would be temporarily exposed to a radioactive plume, they should improvise respiratory protective measures if regular respiratory protective gear is not available. BRP will send prompt notice through emergency management channels if respiratory protective measures for offsite emergency workers are reconenended. Improvised

_ respiratory protective measures included in BRP's plan are:

1. Sheltering in a vehicle or building that can be " buttoned-up" (windows, doors, and air vents closed).
2. Conscientiously covering the mouth and nose with a cloth or filtering device (suggested items include a folded handkerchief, 3 or 4 plys of toilet tissue, or a folded towel). J While these methods may not be fully effective against vapors and gasses, they can be effective temporary protection against radioactive particulates (until the plume passes or the offsite worker evacuates).

E. Decontamination Monitoring of Emergency Workers

1. Upon completion of his/her mission, each emergency worker must report to a decontamination monitoring station or mass care center to be monitored (and decontaminated, if necessary). Of course, the emergency workers performing decontamination monitoring at the mass care center will conduct decontamination monitoring for themselves.
2. Decontamination Stations for Emergency Workers are:
a. Elverson Fire Company, Hall Street, Elverson M-7 Draft 9 I

i-s

1

b. Lienvillo Fira Company, Village Avsrjun, Lionville )
c. Valley Forge Volunteer Fire Company, Valley Park Road, Valley Forge M
3. Emergency workers may receive the same decontamination monitoring service at mass care / decontamination centers.
4. Whether at a d'econtamination station or mass care / decon-taaination center, the same precedures for decontamination monitoring as specified for the general public apply to emergency workers with the exception of the thyroid check.

Emergency workers should be monitored for accumulation of radioiodine in the thyroid gland (reference Appendix 1, Section 4

11.8).

F. Radiological Training, Inventory, Maintenance and Record Keeping l With the assistance of PEMA, the County DES will ensure dosimetry training including dosimeter charging, dosimeter reading and recording of information.

Equipment and KI inventory and maintenance procedures with appropriate records are specified in Appendix 4 to this Annex.

. Inventory control during the emergency will consist of a trail of accountability from each agency issuing equipment through the '

individual end user of the equipment and KI. Forms and procedures for this purpose are included in Appendix 2.

VII. PROTECTf0NFORINSTITUTIONALPERSONNEL

, A. The evacuation time for Phoenixville Hospital (see Appendix 3) is expected to be greater than that for the general population.

Consequently, the staff and medica.l' complement of this hospital are

considered emergency workers and therefore are provided KI and 2

dosimetry.

B. Liquid KI will be distributed by PEMA to all hospitals located  !

within the plume exposure pathway EPZ. Sufficient units for 100% of the patients and 50% of the staff for a fourteen day period are on hand. The County UES is responsible for notifying the institution I when the Secretary of the Department of Health advies the use of KI.

C. Decontamination monitoring of institutional staff and residents can be accomplished by utilizing the institution's own capability and that of the host institution, decontamination stations for emergency workers, or decontamination centers located with mass care /decon-tamination centers.

DECONTAMINATION MONITORING PROCEDURES I. GENERAL INFORMATION AND ORGANIZATION A. Decontamination Monitoring of the Public In the event of a fixed nuclear facility incident, the public and emergency workers g have to be individually monitored to ascertain whether the individual is contaminated with a radioactive substance. If a person is found to be contaminated, then he/she must be decontaminated. BRP will issue a statement indicating whether decontamination monitoring is required and PEMA will send this message through emergency management channels. Decontamination monitoring teams will be located at mass care centers and will perform decontamination monitoring upon request regardless of whether it is required.

B. Organization at Mass Care Centers

1. Mass care centers for evacuees will serve as points where decontamination monitoring and decontamination procedures will be conducted. When decontamination monitoring is required evacuees will, upon arrival at tne mass care center and if necessary, be decontaminated and then admitted to the " general living" portion of the mass care center. Trained decontamina-tion monitoring teams will conduct the monitoring for radio-logical contamination, carry out decontamination procedures, and complete associated records. This activity, while falling under the overall coordination of the mass care center manager, is not an integral part of that operation. Uecontamination monitoring teams take direction from the county radiological officer.

Uecontamination monitoring of evacuees should be completed as soon as possible; deccntamination monitoring of personal belongings (i.e., clothing, personal articles, vehicles) can be accomplished after the evacuees have been processed.

2. Decontamination monitoring teams will organize their areas and traffic flow patterns so that contaminated persons and those to be monitored will not mix with the contamination-free individ-uals already admitted to the general living section of the mass care center. For example, persons will be sent to the decontamination area (showers) by a route that will not place them in contact with contamination-free areas. Showers used for decontamination will not be available for general use until they are decontaminated.

C. Decontamination Monitorin.g Services for Persons Who Are Not Housed at Mass Care Centers.

M-1-1 Oraft 9

Psrsons who d3 not inttnd to stay at a mass care canter, but wh3 wish to be monitored will be extended these services at mass care /

decontamination centers. The decontamination monitoring procedures

{, and record keeping are identical for people who stay or do not stay 9 x at mass care centers.

Upon direction by BRP that decontamination monitoring is necessary, decontamination monitoring teams will also be dispatched to host '

health care facilities.

'D. Decontamination Monitoring Station for Emergency Workers

1. Upon completion of his/her mission, or as directed by super-visors, each emergency worker must report to a decontamination monitoring station or a mass care / decontamination center to be monitored for radiological contamination and, if necessary, be decontaminated.
2. Most emergency workers will be working within the plume exposure pathway EPZ which extends approximately ten miles in a 360*

circumference from the nuclear facility. Since the mass care /

decontamination centers for the public are generally located 20 or more miles from the nuclear facilities, special "decontamina-tion monitoring stations for emergency workers" are established closer to the plume exposure pathway EPZ. Therefore, emergency workers will not be required to travel the longer distance to mass care / decontamination centers for decontamination '

monitoring. ,

s 3. Each mass care center and decontamination monitoring station is to extend its service to any requesting emergency worker, whether federal, state, county, municipal employee or volunteer.

E. Equipment and Personnel Requirements

1. The instrument used for decontamination monitoring is the CD V-700 Geiger-Mueller Survey Meter (range: approximately U.0 to 50 mR/h).
2. A sufficient number of CD V-700 survey meters are available for each mass care center to allow one meter for each 250 mass care spaces; decontamination stations have available one CU V-700 for each 50 emergency workers.
3. Personnel requirements are one trained monitor and one recorder (assistant to the monitor) for each survey meter as a minimum.

Each decontamination monitor and recorder is supplied with dosimetry (CD V-742 and TLD) and KI.

4. Inventory, maintenance, and property accountability with regard to dosimetry, survey meters and XI are described in Appendix 4 to this Annex.

F. 01 contamination Monitoring Rscord Kesping a

Decontaminatin monitoring personnel will be responsible for completing a " Decontamination Monitoring Report Form" (reference m Attachment A to this Appendix) for each individual with a reading of O.05 mR/h (milliroentgens per hour) or more above background, which is the action level set by BRP indicating that decontamination of the individual ..is necessary. The form will be completed, signed by ,

the monitor at each of the steps [(1) initial monitoring, (2) after first decontamination, (3) after second decontamination, (4) medical referral.] Two copies of the form will be prepared. One copy will be given to the individual when decontamination is completed or when the individual is sent to a medical facility. The original will be retained by the county in a historical file. Chester County will make these forms available to BRP, if requested.

G. Progress Reports on Decontamination Monitoring Decontamination team chiefs should verbally report on the results of monitoring at two hour intervals to their County Radiological Officers. The report shall include the following cumulative data:

number of persons monitored; number contaminated; number decontaminated; number referred to a medical facility (for radiation decontamination / treatment); the highest reading (above 0.05 mR/h) on any particular individual; and any unusual or particularly notable findings. The County DES is responsible for consolidating this

information and reporting it immediately to PEMA who in turn will relay the information to BRP.

I. PROCEDURE

S FOR DECONTAMINATION MONITORING TEAMS l

A. Decontamination Monitoring Procedures Monitors performing decontamination monitoring of people should follow these procedures:

1. Select a reception location for conducting the monitoring i

operation. Precautions must be taken to prevent contamination of the area.

2. Use the CD V-700 Attach the headphone. This allows the -

monitor to observe the position of the probe and better control it while monitoring. The headphone responds more quickly to changes in radiation level than does the meter.

. 3. Check the operability of the CD V-700.

4 Place the probe in a light plastic bag or cover of lightweight i material to prevent contamination. This is desirable but not mandatory.

5. Periodically determine the background radiation level of the location where the monitoring is to take place. If the meter indication is above background radiation with the probe shield M-1-3 Draft 9 l

L

closed, find a better location that will bring the meter indication as low as possible.

6. Open the shield on the CD V-700 probe and put on the headphone.
7. Place the probe two inches from -the head, being careful not to touch the person. ,
8. Move the probe downward on one side of the neck, the collar, the shoulder, arm, wrist, hand, underarm, armpit, side of body, side of leg, around the cuff and shoe, including the bottom of the shoe. Then monitor the inside of the leg from the cuff to the groin and continue the procedure on the other side of the body (reference Illustration 1).

4

9. Monitor the front and back of the body.
10. Record the information on the Decontamination Monitoring Report

. Form (reference Attachment A to this Appendix).

11. Assure that individuals found to be contaminated are decontam-inated.*
12. Monitor the individual after decontamination to determine that the contamination has been removed. Repeat decontamination procedures if contamination still remains.
8. Thyroid Gland Screening Check for Emergency Workers

\ 1. In addition to the step's outlined in II.A. above, emergency I

workers are to be screened for thyroid gland uptake of radiciodine.

2. The thyroid uptake screening procedure follows: ..
a. The CD V-700 is used as the screening detector for thyroid uptake of radiciodine.

CAUTION The individual being checked must be free of any contamination before this procedure is implemented.

. *A person is considered contaminated if there is a reading of 0.05 mR/h or

, more above background. Do not confuse background radiation with your readings; contamination would be apparent by a sustained increase on the visual meter reading (selector switch on X 1 range), and also by a marked

- increase in the audible indication from the headphone.

b. Monitors parforming tha thyroid screening uptake procedura j should follow these steps:

(1) Put the probe with the shield closed across the front of the neck just below the larynx (Adam's Apple).

(2) If the reading is greater than or equal to U.1 W /hr, refer the individual to the appropriate medical facility for evaluation.

(3) If the reading is less than 0.1 W/hr, no further action is necessary.

(4) Record the data on the Dosimetry-XI Report Form and

sign in the appropriate place, i

C. Decontamination of People

1. Contaminated persons should wash with soap and warm water; i.e.,

a thorough shower should be sufficient. Emphasis should be placed on any specific spots found to be contaminated in the monitoring process. Also, special attention should be given to the hair, har.ds and fingernails.

2. After thorough cleansing the individual should be monitored again. If some contamination still remains, the individual should shower again and use a mild abrasive soap. If monitoring

! after the second thorough cleansing indicates that the contam-

' ination is still present, the individual should be sent to the 4

nearest medical facility capable of treating contaminated j persons.

3. Care should be taken that persons who are decontaminated do not j become recontaminated by dressing in contaminated clothing (the clothing they were wearing or possibly other clothing brought by

, them.)' If the individual does not have contamination free clothing, clothing should be issued the individual until such time as their clothing can be decontaminated.

D. Decontamination Procedures for Wounds l Persons with contaminated wounds should be referred to an appro-j priate medical facility for radiation decontamination _and treatment.

l E. Clothing Decontamination Procedures

1. Articles which are machine washable should be laundered with a conventional detergent, line dried in a contamination free area or machine dried, and retained until they can be monitored.

l Water repellent items may be scrubbed with water and detergent,

, and retained until monitored.

2. The County DES is responsible for arranging for a laundry facility dedicated to washing of contaminated clothing.

. M-1-6 Draft 9

F. D;contaminaticn Precedures for Supplics, Instruments and Equipment

1. The item in question should be monitored first to determine the
) extent and area of contamination by thoroughly going over the

( object with the CD V-700 probe (with open shield) about two inches from the surface. Decontamination of these articles is ,

generally accomplished by wiping.or washing to the extent l necessary to remove the radiological contaminants. .

2. The County DES is responsible for arranging for radiation monitoring of vehicles and for decontamination. At mass care '

centers, monitoring teams will initially direct their efforts to 4

the evacuees.as described in (a) and (b) above. When time  :

permits, the monitoring teams can monitor the vehicles of the evacuees where they are parked. Generally, external monitoring of vehicles will be sufficient; however, inside monitoring will 3

also be done for those vehicles found to be externally ,

contaminated and those vehicles used by , persons found to be '

contaminated. Suitable car washing arrangements can be made for external decontamination depending upon the number of vehicles .

. contaminated and amount of radiological contaminants. The '

, county will seek the advice of BRP, through PEMA, in deciding what measures will be effective and expeditious. Vehicles with j contamination in the interiors will be impounded and BRP must be

consulted, through PEMA, on how to decontaminate these. vehicles before they are returned to their owners.

G. Disposal of Contaminated Wastes

1. As described above, clothing and similar materials as well as '

miscellaneous equipment and vehicles can be decontaminated.

Where cleaning materials and other items cannot be successfully decontaminated, special handling is necessary.

2. Contaminated waste materials should be packaged in a plastic bag, tied securely at the top, and placed in a metal container with a snug fitting lid (garbage can) until it is laundered. If any material cannot be decontaminated by laundering, place it in

, the same type of plastic bag and container and store in a locked room that is not used for any other purpose until such time as ,

the contaminated waste is disposed of by FRMAP personnel. ,

Accumulation of contaminated waste materials and the need for l disposal should be reported through the emergency management system. -

) h 00SIMETRY AND POTASSIUM IODIDE (KI) INFORMATION j I. GENERAL INFORMATION -

. A. Each emergency worker assigned tasks within the plume exposure pathway EPZ will be equipped with three dosimeters, a Dosimetry-KI )

Report Form, and a 14 day supply of potassium (KI). Two of the

, dosimeters are self-reading; they are the CD V-730 'or a DCA-622,

, both of which measure from 0 to 20 R, and the CD V-7T2 which i measures from 0 to 200 R. The third dosimeter is a thermolumines-cent dosimeter (TLD) which is a card type device that is read by the TLD service contractor.

8. Decontamination monitoring team members are issued a CD V-742, a TLD, KI and a Dosimetry-KI Report Form.

C. Dosimeter chargers (CD V-750) which are used to "zero" or charge the self-reading dosimeters are located with, or within easy access to, each emergency organizational unit.

D. The CD V-740 (0-100R) self-reading dosimeter is considered an adequate substitute for either the CD V-730 or CD V-742.

II. DISTRIBUTION OF DOSIMETRY-P0TASSIUM IODIDE ANO RELATED PH0CEDURES b

A. Distribution

The TL0s, CD V-730s or DCA-622s, CD V-742s, Dosimetry-KI Report
Form, potassium iodi'de and appropriate numbers of CD V-750s in l support of response to fixed nuclear facility incidents are ,

i available. For this purpose a " Dosimetry, KI, Survey Meter Distribution List" is included as Appendix 3. This county list identifies by name and address each organization to be distributed these resources and specifies the number of dosimeters, units of KI,-

i dosimeter chargers, and survey meters assigned to each agency. The i

using organizations will distribute dosimetry and KI to emergency workers upon the declaration of SITE EMERGENCY. (Note: .

Decontamination monitoring teams at decontamination centers and stations are not activated until SITE EMERGENCY, upon which distribution is made to the team.)

B. Property Control 4

Property accountability must be maintained in the distribution process. The " Receipt Form for Dosimetry-Survey Meters-KI" (see Attachment E) is designed for transferral of quantities of equipment

from agency to agency, such as from the county to municipalities and
decontamination teams, and from municipa'lities to emergency response organizations (fire, police, ambulance). " Acknowledgment of Receipt M-2-1 Oraft 9 1

l- n

4 by Emergency W:rksrs for Desimetry-KI and Surysy Meters" (see ,

Attachment F) is designed to expedite transferral of the equipment-

~~-

KI to individual users. Municipal EOCs, fire companies, police departments, ambulance services and decontamination monitoring teams =>

should use this form (Attachment F) to maintain accountability when distributing the equipment-KI to their individual emergency workers.

Upon termination of an incident, all equipment and unused XI must be -

retu. .ied to the county DES.

C. Control TLD's

l. In the event of an incident, the County DES will collect the
' designated " Control TLDs." Control TLDs are equal in number to about 5% of the total amount allotted for distribution. Each

" control TLD" is so labeled and the serial numbers are not in the same sequential batch as the TLDs meant for distribution to emergency workers. As coordinated by PEMA, the control TLDs will be forwarded to the TLD service contractor. The County DES

, will complete the " Control TLDs Form" (reference Attachment B) i and forward it with the control TLDs.

2. The purpose of " Control TLDs" is to allow measurement of a

, " baseline" of radiation (background radiation) that the TLDs had been exposed to at the time the county distributed TLDs in reaction to the incident. The measurement of the accumulated background radiation as measured by the control TLDs will be subtracted from the reading obtained from each emergency worker O,4c in the county. This procedure can be characterized as #

" mathematical zeroing" of the TLD. (The CD V-730s DCA-622s and 4

CD V-742s will be zeroed by the user organizations as they are put into use.)

3. At the time of the incident the County CES will ensure that the control TLDs are not exposed to radiation other than background radiation.

I l 4 III. POTASSIUM IDDIDE (KI) l A. Background Information l 1

4 1. Iodine accumulates in the thyroid gland which is located at the front base of the neck just below the larynx (Adam's apple).

Radioactive iodine is no different; i.e., it will accumulate in the thyroid gland in high concentration. Taking KI will have
the effect of saturating the thyroid gland with iodine so that
radioactive iodine does not lodge there in a large quantity.

j Hence, KI lessens the risk to the thyroid gland; otherwise, it provides no protection against radiation. i I

4

2. The Pennsylvania Department of Health is responsible for developing policies relating to use of KI during fixed nuclear incidents. The department has procured KI tablets for emergency

, workers and KI in liquid form for staff and patients of risk M-2-2 Draft 9

- . - . . - - . - . . . - - ~ - . - - - . - - -

hrspitals. Thyro-Block (product of Cartsr-Wallace Inc.) is tha brand name of the KI tablets procured by the department. A unit of Thyro-Block consists of 14 tablets of 130 milligrams in size; the dose is one tablet per day. The liquid preparation c=

-Oe (manufactured by Roxanne, Inc.) dosage is six drops per day; for planning purposes the liquid KI requirements are based upon a 14 day supply per person.

3. The toxicity level of KI is very low and dangers in taking this drug are considered to be minimal. Nonetheless, individuals should not take more than the recommended dose. Although side effects of KI are unlikely because of the low dose and the short time period it will be taken, some side effects are possible.

The side effects may include: skin rashes, swelling of the salivary glands, and " iodism" (metallic taste, burning mouth and throat, sore teeth and gums, cold symptoms and sometimes gastrointestinal symptoms.) A few people may have an allergic reaction with more serious symptoms. These symptoms could include elevated temperature, joint pains, swelling of the face and body, and at times, severe shortness of breath which requires immediate medical attention.

4. The effectiveness of KI as a blocking agent is greatest if administered before the time of exposure to radiciodine, but some exposure saving can be obtained by administration shortly after exposure. Information on Thyro-Block and on the liquid KI are included in Attachments C and D to this Appendix.

B. Pennsylvania Department of Health Policies on KI

1. KI in tablet form is available to emergency workers (emergency management agencies, police forces, fire companies, ambulance services, and farmers keeping livestock). Those emergency worker organizations and institutions that receive KI protection are specified in Appendix 3.
2. The Secretary of the Deparment of Health is charged with the decision to use KI during an incident. KI should be taken only on the advice of the Secretary of the Department of Healtn. Ine Secretary's advice will be disseminated to emergency workers through emergency management channels. Upon taking XI, the-emergency worker should record.this information on the Dosimetry-KI Report Form (see Attachment A to this Appendix).
3. The Department of Health will provide the public with information concerning KI.

IV. DOSIMETRY READINGS RECORD KEEPING AND PROTECTIVE ACTION OPTIONS A. Dosimetry Reading Procedures

1. Dosimeters should be worn in the pocket of an outer garment from the time of issue until the worker is dismissed from duty or p

until PEMA recommends dosimetry is no longer necessary. In no M-2-3 Draft 9

casa should tha TLD be warn by more than ona psrson since thara is no way of ascertaining later how much of the dose recorded on the TLD was received by each individual if more than one person was involved.

2. For practical purposes each Roentgen registered on either of the  :

self-reading dosimeters is to be interpreted t6 mean that the  :

worker has received a corresponding number of rem, e.g , a -l reading of 5 R should be interpreted to mean that a 5 rem dose i has been received.*

3. Each emergency worker should read the self-reading dosimeters at least once each thirty minutes.

i

4. Two self-reading dosimeters provide redundancy. Workers should heed the higher measurement taken from the two dosimeters. It is possible for dosimeters of this type to have " electrical leakage" that will register a reading not caused by radiation.

Nonetheless, workers are to " err on the side of caution" by heeding the higher reading.

B. Protective Action Guides (PAG) for Emergency Workers

1. Whole Body Exposure - The protective action guide for whole body exposure specified by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and by BRP is 25 rem. Workers should use the self-reading dosimeter (s) to ensure that the 25 rem whole body PAG is not exceeded. By regularly checking tne self-reading dosimeter (s),

the worker can make reasonable judgments about how much radiation, if any, has been received and at what rate it is being received.

2. Emergency workers and supervisors are cautioned that the 25 rem protective action guide should not be construed as " license" to

incur radiation exposure unnecessarily. Workers and supervisors should attempt to keep exposure as low as reasonably achievable.

This concept means that exposure to radiation should be kept to a minimum for all persons and that any one individual should not receive a total dose far in excess of other emergency workers if circumstances permit substitution of personnel, termination of the assignment, or other protective action.

3. Thyroid Gland Exposure - The EPA and BRP PAG for. thyroid dose is 125 rem for emergency workers but with no specific upper limit for life saving activities. An upper limit is not given for thyroid exposure since in the extreme case complete thyroid loss might be acceptable for a life saved.
  • A Roentgen (R) is a unit of measurement of x-ray or gamma radiation that is

! based upon effects as measured in air; a rem (r) is a unit of radiation measurement that is based upon effects as measured in the human body. In this plan Roentgen and rem are considered to be essentially the same.

M-2-4 Oraft 9

4 Life Saving Missions - Responsible emergency management of off-

_ site workers dictates that exceeding the 25 rem protective j action guide should not occur. However, should there be extra- m ordinary circumstances wherein a person's life is at stake, the 24 rem whole body dose may be exceeded in order to complete a 1 life saving mission. The EPA and BRP specify an upper limit of 75 rem whole body dose for life saving missions, i.e., subject .i to special approval, conditions, and measures. Therefore, persons who volunteer for a life saving mission may exceed the 25 rem whole body limit set for emergency workers. In no case

may they exceed 75 rem.

Elected officials may authorize volunteer emergency workers to exceed the protective action guidelines (25 rem whole body

. exposure) to a maximum'of 7S rem for a life saving mission.

This advance authorization is Intended to avoid delay In performing a necessary life saving mission. A wide margin of safety should be maintained to avoid risk from possible adverse long term health effects caused by radiation exposure (see

! paragraph C below). Decision makers (elected officials) should consider the information in paragraph C below and also ensure that the following conditions have been met:

a. The mission is of life saving importance.
b. Alternative solutions have been exhausted.

j c. Emergency workers should be healthy adult male volunteers, i

preferably over 45 years of age.

j d. The emergency workers selected should be persons whose normal duties might involve such missions; i.e., policemen i and firefighters with suitable protective clothing and respiratory equipment.

e. The mission is accomplished in the least amount of " stay time."
f. The emergency workers are knowledgeable of and accept the i -

increased risk of exceeding the 25 rem PAG.

C. Increased Risks Due to Radiation Exposure

  • i Information concerning the possible consequences of emergency workers' exposure to radiation during a fixed nuclear incident is

, organized below into three categories - (1) imediate somatic '

effects, (2) long term somatic effects, and (3) genetic effects. '

Somatic is an adjective pertaining to characteristics of or effects 4  !

! *Information derived from " Basic Radiation Protection Criteria," National l Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements Report Number 39, Bethesda, v Maryland, March 1,1982.

M-2-9 Oraft 9

I cn tha body, as distinguished from g:nttic characteristics or genetic effects which are manifested in offspring (descendants).

. . 1. Representative Relationships Between a Brief One-Time Radiation =

j Exposure and Immediate Somatic Effects Representative Absorbed Dose of Whole Body X or .

Gassia Radiation (rads) Nature of Effect a

5-25 rem Minimal dose detectable by chromosome analysis or other specialized analysis.

50-75 rem Minimal acute dose readily detectable in a specific individual (e.g., one who presents himself as a possible exposure case).75-125 rem Minimal acute dose likely to produce vomiting in about 10% of people so exposed.

150-200 rem Acute dose likely to produce transient disability and clear hematological changes in a majority of people so 1 exposed. I

2. Long Term Somatic Risks as a Result of a One Time Exposure to Radiation Current knowledge about the long term health effects resulting from a one time radiation exposure below 25 rem indicates that development of health problems, such as cancer, in adults so '

exposed is extremely unlikely. There is no direct clinical i

evidence of low level radiation (in this case meaning a one time exposure below the whole body dose protective action guide of 25 rem) causing health problems years after the exposure.

3. Genetic Effects of Radiation Radiation exposure of reproductive cells of the ovary and testis causes gene and chromosome abnormalities (mutation). Persons exposed to any radiation should avoid the possibility of concep-
tion during the first few months after exposure, in order to virtually eliminate any possible genetic risk.

D. Dosimetry and KI Record Keeping

1. Each emergency worker is responsible for completing a Dosimetry- ,

KI Report ferm (reference Attachment A) and for returning it, along with the dosimetry, to his organization at the termination 3 of his services. Each emergency organization will forward the i forms and dosimetry to the County DES who in turn will deliver ,

j the TLDs and forms to PEMA. PEMA will deliver the forms and

i TLDs from all counties to BRP who will dalivar tha TLDs to tha TLD service contractor for reading. All dosimetry records will j- be forwarded to BRP for the purposes of record keeping, I

{

analysis, reporting and storage.

2. BRP will retain all original copies and will be the permanent l 1 record keeper of the completed Dosimetry-KI Report Forms along- l

> with BMP's explanation of each, the TLD service contractor generated information and all related material. The records of i

individuals will be kept confidential.

3. SRP will use the Dosimetry-KI Report, Form to select TLDs for immediate reading. The highest priority will be given to TLDs ,

worn by persons whose self-reading dosimetry indicates 25 R or i more, or where medical authcrity has requested immediate reading, or where other circumstances warrant. In these cases, BRP will expedite delivery of the TLus to the TLD service contractor and readings will be received within 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> after and contractor's receipt of the TLDs. BRP will promptly relay the readings, with their interpretation to the individual and appropriate medical authorities. All other TLDs will be in the

" routine" category of five dey turn-around time from the TLD

service contractor; individuals will be informed of the TLU readings.

! 4. If emergency workers turn in their TLD for reading and are later deployed in an area where dosimetry is needed, they should be l issued new TLDs.

V. FARMER ACCESS TO THE PLUME EXPOSURE PATHWAY EPZ A. Farmers as Emergency Workers Farmers with livestock within the plume exposure pathway EPZ will be designated emergency workers if the EPZ is evacuated.

APPENDIX 4 ANNEX M c-INVENTORY AND MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES I. PURPOSE This attachment sets forth procedures fnr inventory and maintenance of the dosimetry, dosimeter chargers, survey meters and potassium iodide (KI) intended for use in response to incidents at the Limerick Generating Station.

II. OEFINITIONS For the purpose of this appendix, the following definitions are applicable:

A. Inspection - A visual check for physical damage and missing accessories to include batteries (for the CD V-760 and CD V-700) which should be stored separately.

B. Operational check -

1. Self-reading dosimeters (CD V-730, CD V-742, or Dosimeter Corporation of America Model 622) - The dosimeter is operational if the hairline can be moved to or close to zero using a dosimeter charger.
2. Oosimeter charger (CD V-750) - The charger is operational if the d light source for reading dosimeters is working and the charger can move the hairline on a self-reading dosimeter to or clnse to zero.
3. Survey meter (CD V-700) - The survey meter is operational if, after turning the selector switch to the X10 range, allowing 30 seconds for warmup, opening the shield on the probe and placing the open area of the probe as close as possible to the operational check source located on the instrument case, the meter reads between 1.5 and 2.6 mr/h.

C. Special RERP issue - Refers to dosimeters, dosimeter chargers and survey meters that are either civil defense or commercial equipment issued to selected counties for the express purpose of response to nuclear facility incidents; this equipment is in addition to civil defense kits issued to counties as a preparedness measure for nuclear attack.

G. The USDA County Food and Agriculture Council (FAC) and the County Agricultural Agent are the primary means for the dissemination of

# information and advisories from the State to farmers and food "

processing facilities concerning protective actions. l H. - Th'e Chester County Department.of Emergency Services will assist the County USDA FAC in the distribution of information and advisories from the State to the farmers through public information and - emergency broadcast system facilities.

The Chester County Agricultural Agent will establish a contact and distribution point for farmers at the Lionville Fire Department, Village Avenue, Lionville.

1. In case of an evacuation, farmers (who keep livestock) within

. the plume exposure pathway EPZ may apply for Emergency Worker Certification and when received, pick up dosimetry and KI from the Chester County DES. This certification will enable farmers to gain access to the controlled area for the purpose of tending livestock. As emergency workers, farmers are to report to a l decontamination center each time they exit the controlled area. I

2. The County Agent, as authorizor of the Farmer Emergency Worker Certification Forms, will circulate his signature sample (or that of his authorized representative, when applicable) to all municipal police, State Police, and military personnel manning access control points to the plume exposure pathway EPZ.

. IV. FARMERS 4 ! A. Farmers within the plume exposure pathway EPZ.who have livestock to

be tended are considered to be " emergency workers" and therefore may 4 stay within the plume exposure pathway EPZ or frequently exit and
reenter for the purpose of tending livestock. This emergency worker status, and the right to be in the EPZ, can be suspended by the Governor if the situation should become serious enough to warrant

- this action, j '8. Farmers should obtain dosimetry and KI, along with a Dosimetry-KI Report Form and Farmer Emergency Worker Certification Form, from the i Chester County Department of Emergency Services who will facilitate i distribution to farmers through the County Agent. + C. Farmers should report to an emergency worker decontamination station i each time they depart the EPZ. W 0-2 -Oraft 9. i i
