Written agreements existed with those offsite support agencies specified in the Radiological Contingency Plan (RCP). The agreements had been updated as appropriate.
The inspector determined through the aforementioned discussions and a review of records that the licensee was periodically contacting local and State support agencies for purposes of offering training and maintaining familiarization with emergency response roles.
The inspector visited Lynchburg General-Marshall Lodge Hospitals and interviewed cognizant staff there regarding medical treatment for contaminated injured workers as specified in the agreement between the hospital and the licensee.
Those interviewed were well acquainted with the emergency response role of the hospital in support of the licensee's facility.
The inspector was given a tour of the emergency treatment facilities, and noted that they appeared fully adequate to handle their intended functions.
