Assistant Associate Director Office of Natural and Technological Hazards Programs SUBJECr: Exercise Report of the October 16, 1985, Exercise of the Offsite Radiological Dnergency Preparedness Plans for the Trojan Nuclear Power Plant Attached is a copy of the Exercise Report of the October 16, 1985, joint exercise of the offsite radiological emergency preparedness plans for the Trojan Nuclear Power Plant. H is was a joint full participation exercise for the State of Washington and Cowlitz and Lewis Counties, and the State of Oregon and Columbia County. Incorporated in the exercise report is an evaluation of a medical drill conducted on October 14-15, 1985, that provided an adequate opportunity to test the resnnnsa ca,nebilities of the various medical organizations. We report dated December 13, 1983, was prepared by Region X of the Federal DTergency Management Agency (FDiA).

no following deficiencies were observed at the exercise:

1. %cre were insufficient radiation monitoring teams to screen the 35,000 evacuees entering the Lewis County, Washington assistance center (AC) within the 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> stipulated by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC)/ FEMA regulations. For exanple the State did not request assistance frm the U. S. Departrent of Energy to supplement the State's efforts in monitoring the evacuees. In addition, the initial instructions by the State to the host county for screening evacuees were not correct (but were subsequently corrected by the American Red Cross). H e potential for contamination of the evacuees was significant since a large number of evacuees had been caught for a substantial period of time in the plume.
2. Here was a failure to provide timely notification of key response organizations. Here was a 1 1/2 hour delay by the State of Washington in the dispatch of radiation nonitoring teams to the Lewis County AC.

Even this dispatchina would not have been done if there hadn't been a request by the County for radiological monitoring at the AC.

2601 oN3 c2 gg.

In order to remedy the two deficiencies FEMA Region X has recomnended that officials of the State of Washington finalize their determination of radiological monitoring needs for a sustained 24-hour operation, make appropriate site-specific arrangements for Federal radiological monitoring assistance, revise the procedures for mobilization of monitoring teams, and revise their plans accordingly. We Region also reconnended that the State of Washington review the current evacuation zone configurations and evacuation routes under different accident scenarios, with the goal of inproving zone configurations of persons to be evacuated and determining nultiple evacuation routes in order to minimize potential exposure.

Finally, the remedies generated by these reconnendations will be tested in a renodial exercise in June 1986.

In addition to the deficiencies, there were inadequacies identified re-quiring corrective actions. H e State is preparing a schedule of corrective actions for the areas requiring corrective actions. As soon as it is received and analyzed, we will send you a copy. W e schedule is expected frcrn the State on or before February 21, 1986.

While there were inpediments to protecting the public identified in the exercise, the approval of offsite radiological emergency preparedness plans under FEMA Rule 44 CFR 350 will remain in effect since: (1) the State is already working on the schedule of corrective actions, and (2) the deficien-cies will be addressed in a test scheduled for June 1986.

If you have any questions, please contact Mr. Ibbert S. Wilkerson, Chief, Technological Hazard: Division, at 646 20Gl.

EXERCISE S12OIARY This report represents the findings of the Federal Emergency Management

  • Agency Regica X, and Regional Assistance Committee (FEMA RX/RAC). This is an evaluation, based on analyses by the Federal evaluators, of the performance of participants in the Medical Drill (Rainier Ambulance St. John's, Good Samaritan and St. Vincent Bospitals) on October 14 and 15, 1985, and participants in the Esercise (States of Washlagton and Oregon: Cowlitz and Lewis Counties. Washington:

Columbia County, Gregens and Portland General Electric Company) on October 16, 1945.

The October 16 esercise was designed to establish conditions for a follow-on lagestion pathway esercise to be conducted during the week of March 3-T, 1986.

The scope and magnitude of the simulated release was designed to create conditions allowing States to esercise Field Teams, State Realth Laboratories, and State EOC's.

The analysis of the consequences of the release, the ingestion pathway Protective Action Recommendations (PAR's), and the initial ingestion pathway sampling plans developed as part of this exercise play, will be incorporated into the ingestion pathway exercise scheduled for next year.

A participant briefing and public briefing were held on October 18, 1985.

In these sessions the evaluation and recommendations for corrective actions were discussed.

For additional information, please contact Richard W. Donovan, RAC Chairman, FEMA RX.

VERIFICATION OF CORRECTIVE ACTIONS In additica to the preestablished esercise objectives, FINA evaluated the .

leptementation of the correcti,e actions identified la previous esercises: e.g.,

issues identified through our previous evaluations that the participante agreed to resolve. Please see Appendix III for the report and statue of corrective actions.

Corrective actione not succese 11y loplemented durlag this exercise will be the object of review and evaluation la future exercises.

OfRER SIGNIFICANT ISSUESt "^ " "^Y OF PROTECTIVE =_^3URESr EVA"ATION PLAN. AND ARRANGEMENTS FOR TEE MMIITORING OF EVACUEES."

The scenario for this esercise assumed a significant release of radioactive materials that sould have caused significant dose commitment to the general population on the Washington side of the plume EFE. As part of our evaluation process, we computed the dose commitment to population as a result of the Protective Actica Decisions (PAD's) la order to determine whether the current evacuation plan is appropriate, and whether the State's preparedness and demonstrated decisioamaking and resource identification process with respect to the monitoring of evacuees are adequate. In both cases, we believe further preparedaees related activity is required.

Adeauncy of Evacuation Plan Portland General Electric has prepared as evacuation analysis report for the Trojan Nuclear Plant, PGE-1034. (Note: PENA RX has not yet evaluated this report eith our IENIS model.) This report's results have been incorporated lato the evacuation plan (s) of Cglumbia County, Oregon and Cowlits County, Washington. The predeternised three 360 evacuation sones (see Figure 1) and designated evacuation routes have been incorporated into the public education progree, public brochure and emergency response plans for the offsite agencies.

FEMA RX's dose estimates'apre based upon the scenario plume exposure rate (see Table 1), the scenario plume leeplethe (see Figure 3), and the evacuation time estimates. (Note: The evacuationstimes were taken free PSE 1034. Their time (s)

~

differ oosenbat from those times est1onted by Cowlits County and contained in our sismificant events log.)

The following assumptions were used for the dose estlantest o The plume had reached the affected population sectore by the time evacuation has started.

o Sector N population was la the plume for the full duration of the evacuation i time, and travel time was divided egually between isoplethe 8 and 9. l e The populatlee la Sectors 3. F, G, and 0 spent equal time la looplethe 7, 8, and 9.

o The population la sector F was la the plume for duration of the evacuatloa.

o The evacuation time eetlantes for the population la Sectors S O, and 0 were reduced by 18, 30. and 45 minutes, respectively, to account for travel time outside of the plume.

v

Delag the above assumptions, the following population dose eetlantes can be made for each sectort Integrated Dose Population Does Sector Population ser tranett (Ree) (aerson-real F =

(1183) x (0.754) = 877 3 =

(234) x (0.479) = 181 G =

, 0 =

(s0s) x (0.Sas) = 2es -

N(1-5) = (19465) x (0.390) = 7599 N(411), = (7300) x (0.233) = f699 N =

(4865 x (0.233) = 1,1,22.

(Pacific Nwy)

TOTAL PERSON REN = 12966 The PAD could have resulted la a population dose of 12966 person'res. If ICRP risk factors are applied to this population dose, approximately 2 fatalities could be espected from the comblaed cancer and genetic risks.

It should be noted that the State took no action (enercise play) to remove the Department of Transportation (DOT) work crew (at allepost 57) who had closed one of the two I-5 lanes (Northbound). This lane restriction would have lacreased the evacuation times, and dose commitment for the 35.000 (plus) evacuees.

_Suasary and Recommendations o If the population in Sector 0 would have been sheltered in place. the total population esposure could have been reduced by tes person-rea.

o If portions of Sector G and portions of Sector N (Mt. Brynton Road) were configured lato separate sectors that represented the topographical features, tL.' total population esposure could have been reduced even farther assualag those sectors were sheltered. (Note: FEMA RX does not have the proper population data to perfore this analysis and compute the revised dose comettaent.)

o We recommend that the appropriate Washlagten officials review the current evacuation some configuration and evacuation route designation in order to determine there are not more appropriate evacuation sector configuratione and evacuation routes.

Adeouscir of Preneredness Radiatica Monitorina of Evacuees o NRC/ FEMA criteria calle for a level of preparedness that would result la monitoring of all evacuees (reefdente and treasiente la the plume EPZ) arriving at the AC's within 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br />.

o The State of unshington dispatched three Field Tease durlag this esercise (two to the plume EP1 and one to en AC that see being evaluated).

[ Note: According to the State's current procedures, there are three Radiation Control Tease of which two will be dispatched to the emergenty and the third (Reserve Tese) held back and estatained to cover a simultaneous accident la another location. If additional resources are

, required, the State will request assistance from the Federal Government.]

o FEMA RX has held neeeroes meetings over the last 3 years la which we have l

' encouraged the State to determine its radiological soalterlag needs and make the necessary arrangements with the Federal Goverseest. (Note:

Recent meetlage were held la April and August of this year).

l o As indicated eteenhore la this report (see evaluation of Washington's Objective # 8), the State did not roguest additteen) espport to perfore their esaltorlags e.g., seven Teases with two Tease in the field and one Team (initia11F) at each of the three predetermined AC's and two Emergency Worker Centers. [ Note: This Field Noattoring Team requirement does not acknowledge the fact that the 35.000 (plus) pereene (evacuatlag mortheerd) would have heard froa media sources that they were evacuatlag through a radioactive plume. Therefore. In all probability they would have stopped at the Lewis County AC to be monitored /decantasiasted.]

We reconsend that appropriate Washington State officials flam11se their determination of radiological mealtoring needs for a sustained 34-hour operation, make appropriate ette-specific arrangemente for Federal radiological asaltering

, assistance, and revloe their plane accordingly.

1. INTRODUCTION 1.1 EXERCISE BACKGROUND The October 18, 1988 Trojan Exercise wee the stath esercise to be evaluated by PENA RX/RAC elace the leplementation of the Nuclear Regulatory Ceemiseloe's rule on Beersency Preparedness. The previous esercises were held on March 4, 1941. November 17 and 19, 1941. November 10, 1948 October 8,1943, and October 17, 1984. l

!acluded eleeubere in this section of the report le the ouemary of the scenario and the eigelticent event loss which include the projected and actual times selected evente occurred la the esercise and medical drill.

The criteria utilised in the evaluation procese are contained in NUREG-0654/

FEMA-AEP-1. Rev. 1 (November 1940), the esercise evaluation modulee specified in FEMA menerandue dated August 1983, and these espected actione called for by the l participant's plane and procedures.

A Control Cell use established for this esercise. Its purpose see to place telephone celle to the various 30C's. The Control Cell members placed calle representing the media and the concerned public.

The resposee by participants to the control cells' telephone calle gave a boele for the Evaluators to detereise the adequacy and preparedaeos capabilities of the State and County with respect to their Beersency Public laforestion Progree.

The offette agencies and the Licensee have reopended to the poet osercise evaluations by leptementing corrective actione in resposee to the FEMA RX/RAC Adentification of esercise leadequecies and recommendations for corrective actions.

Please see Appendia 1 for the history of demonstrated esercise objectives, objectives still to be dessestrated, and functional aroes where receemendatione for corrective action have been identified.

The section of thle report covering esercise resulte costelas a astrative emenery and statemente se each eboerved esercise inadeguecy. Baercise inadeguacies have been grouped in the following categories:

Category A. Preparedaees se demonstrated in the esercise une set adequate to protect the public beelth and estety.

points of Review: 1. Response time for maintalaims status boards and brieflag E0C Staff abould be 10 minutes after receipt of change la status or change in recosaeedation for protective actions.

I 2. Were the facilities and equipment adequate to support the j emergency response effort? Yes.

3. Were status boards, maps, etc., odequate? No.

i 4. See Module Secties C.

i Ivaluation: Status boards were generally posted la a timely, freguest and accurate manner. Occasional exceptions favolved failure to keep i plant status PAR's and AC status currest. Der observance of routiae ladicates that few of the ROC Staff use these boards for any purpose. Racept for one flaal DSES briefing about plume i

status, no information or use use ande of the many maps and l status boards rather, small scale displays were used en the j Baecutive Table la lieu of the established displeys (amps and

! status boards).

! Der current and past evaluations of the ROC and its displays acknowledges that the current BOC represents a herculean attempt to operate la a structure that has lasufficient space and layout

! to serve as sa 50C. In that view, the space and layout is adapted as well as can be done. Nessures taken to silence, ceanect, sever, and operate la all spaces are judged as the best that can be done with the available structure. The estrost maps and status boards are too small and too far many to serve the needs of Executive Decision-anker. The Executive Table was often briefod, very adequately, through the use of very small scale data charts, 111metrations, amps, and each. Brieflags to WRIC and the larger BOC did met use these tools due to small SS f

valuation: size. The existing status boards and maps around the EOC are (Continued) either incompatible. nonexistent or neglected with respect'to displaying the data from the small scale items used at the Executive Table.

Recommendation: Ites. Adequate facility (maps and status boards). (REP-1:8.3

J.10.a. A b.
0.4.a. b. A j.)

Evaluation: Selection of displays continues to show a need for improvement.

Recommendation for Corrective Actions

1

1. Review and standardise the displays needed to support i Executive Group. Create several sets of status / posting boards and map boards that address the following
Plant condition PAR's/ PAD's, local A/N-ESS actions, key telephone numbers, status of EOC(s) and E0P and WEIC: and map (s) i showing wind /wn, plume PAR, PAR laplementation status. PAR completica status, population by sector, etc.

i

2. Place the displays near the Executive Group BOC Operations

! Group, and la the WEIC.

l

3. Train the staff on use of displays in 50C, WEIC, press and technical brieflags. Emphasis on graphics displays e.g., ,

i plant scheastics and map display of plumes, PAR's, i roadblocks, etc., would help all understand far better than 4 I just narrative briefings.

j S1 l

ll _

Evaluation: Lewis County notified the State that shelters were full, and (Continued) '

requested assistance to accommodate the overflow evacuees. The DOG then contacted the Thurston County DEN and asked them to have the Thurston County Red Cross Chapter open additional shelters.

Although the DAG developed an estimate of the evacuating public, they failed to recognize the significance of S8,000 persons with potential contamination who were evacuating northward into Lewis County. Unlike previous exercises, a request for US DOE Radiological (RAD) Nonitoring assistance was never made. There would have been insufficient staff and equipment to perfore monitoring of those persons arriving at AC in Lewis County.

(Please see Other Issues in the Executive Seamary.)

Reconsandation: Item. Response Support. (REP-1:C.1.b. & 4; J.12)

Evaluation: Sufficient RAD Noaltoring Team support was not ensured.

I . Reconaeadation for Corrective Actions: The State should deterniae the requirements for RAD Noeitorlag Teams and make arrangements for such assistance. Revise procedures to address 1 these issues and specify the trigger levels for requesting such assistance.

Objective 6: Demonstrste ability to formulate and distribute amoronriate

. Instructions to the aublic in a timely fashion.  ;

I Summmary: Net objective. 3. Corrective actions are coesidered necessary.

Points of Review: 1. Did the Counties prepare and coordinate the public instructions (ISS message content)? Yes. I

2. Was the content of the public lastructions adequate (see )

Part F of the ROC Hodule)?

i

Evaluation
Washington has a single log entry from Washingtoa State Police

! (WSP) logs inferring a slagle follow-up action. It states only j that no E38 response has been received at a time late in the i

azercise.

i The current procedures assign this responsibility only to the l WE!C Nanager. (Note: This issue has been identified in previous esercises and remains as open ites.)

A task was fattiated by WEIC, through EOC Supervisers to WSP, to monitor ESS/ESAM at W5P Eelso and Vancoever stations and report back. The WSP task was passed out of the State BOC at 1002. No reports were observed to retura, nor was any follow-up laquiry made within the ROC to ascertala that RSS/KRAM public notification / instruction uns actually accomplished.

} Evaluation 1. A 1002 tasking message is considered excessive delay j (Continued) followlag SAE actification at the ROC at 8:00. If the response from NSP field stations would have been rapid, the State would have been sware of the need to perform a backup ESS/KBAN public actificatica/lastructies role over an hour after SAE had been declared.

2. Limited lattiative to follow up on the ESS/ESAN acattor assignment by WEIC (which initiated it). the 50C Supervisor or WSP indicates a problem of tracklag assignments to completloa.

Recommendations: Item. Public Instructions. (REP-1:E.5. 4 & 7; 0.4.J.)

i Evaluation: 1) The action is critical la terms of the State assuring that the County, or State if need be, has performed the A/N role; 2) The State did not play out reasonable actions (e.g., call ERAN and ask); 3) No other activity was observed that the State confirmed siren activation action or other A/N roles; and 4) No status board or brieflag contained definitive status of A/N action.

i .

1 Recommendation for Corrective Actions:

1. Revise procedures to make monitorlag and reporting of BBS/KRAN public notificatica/lastruction messages by appropriate State salt an automatic action rather than a l task assignment. Revise ROC Procelures to specify positica responsible for verifying that that this action is occurring.

Evaluation: All media rolesses were approved by the WEIC Nanager. However.

several problems arose with the faitiation (production) of rolesses. First, the majority of M IC messages lacked .

approval /laitiation times. Second. the numberlag system, sequencing, and orderly dissenlaation of these releases became backlogged and subsequently confused.

All MIC releases were properly dissestaated to all appropriate i I

release points, but due to a lack of concurrence times (os releases) and confused numbering / sequencing, the dissemination of i I

NEIC messages 3-4 was not prompt.

News conferences were conducted hourly and a time for the next brieflag was posted la the media dissoalaation room. The scheduled time for the next briefing was not posted in the press brieflag room. The spokesperson(s) gave out incorrect l taformation regardlag the severity of the radiological release, the status of the AC and shelter activation, and advised the media to go to the AC's. Spokespersons did not have adequate tools to assist the State's presentation.

releases uns esitted. The procedures for membering/ sequencing WEIC releases was not followed. Day 11cate use of release numbers coupled with rapidly changlag events resulted la lags la excess of 30 alautes for the dissemination of WEIC releases.

Recommendation for Corrective Acties:

1. Revise procedures to specify that release time should be lacluded.
3. Traia staff on process of numberlag WEIC release and the prompt processing of releases.

l S. Train Staff on the postlag of times for media briefings e.g.,

The times for media brieflage should be clearly posted la the

press roca (rect WEIC Assistaat Manager Procedure 10.2.2 IV-A, 8).

Itea. Media Operations. (REP-1:8.33 0.4.j.)

Evaluation: The Technical Spokesperson stated that a field reading of 80 mR/hr at 7 miles north of Trojaa was barely above i background and of no sissificance. In the same statenest, he i ladicated that the State had administered KI for Field Teams and l did not address protective actions for general public.

2. EXERCISE EVALUATION 2.2.1 STATE OF WASHINGTON (Continued) 1

] 2.2.1.2 In The Field Note: Washington State DSHS dispatched two Field Radiological Noeitoring Teams to the vicinity of the Trojan Nuclear Power Plant. This section of the report is divided by objectives and then by each team.

Objective 11: Demonstrate ability to communicate with all amoroorfate l l

locations. organizations. and field personnel.

! Summary: Net objective. C. Performance adequate, but correctable I weakness was noted.

Points of Review: 1. Were communications systems adequate (i.e., enough I phones, necessary dedicated circuits, etc.)? Yes l -

2. Were the systems used properly? Yes.

] 3. See Module Sectica D.

Evaluation for WA #1 " Dead Spots" were observed in the EPZ (i.e., no repeater).

l Battery charger for radio was not working correctly. i Readings could not be communicated promptly because of the amount of radio traffic handled by the EOF. Beyond these hardware problems and the 50F radio traffic problem, this team communicated very well.

Evaluation for WA #2 Overall, Washlagton Field Team p2 demonstrated a very good ability in handling appropriate communications. Radio protocol by the Team Leader was very good.

1. Radio not control by the 30F mad poor radio protocol by other Teams resulted la delays reporttag survey results.
2. The location of the first 3 serveys were inaccurately 4

reported to the 50F.

3.

The Team missed the last lastructions by the 50F to take ground deposittoa samples because their radio volume had been turned down while stationary and the lastructions were given while mobile. The lacreased background moise prevented the Team from hearing these instructions.

4. Field Team defined west plume boundary, center line, and east plume boundary la a stretch of 5 afautes and reported only the center line reading without ladicatlag its significance.

Recommendation: Item. Communications. (REP-1 F.1.d.: 0.4.c.)

Evaluation: See above.

i Recommendation: Recommendation for Corrective Actions:

1. Investigste/ evaluate the feasibility of installing .

repeaters to eliminate " Dead Spots" within the EPZ.

2. Repair broken charger for radio (WA 81).  !
3. Radio Conauaications Procedures should be revised to  !

eliminate the direction / distance information given over the l radio. This could be done at the EOF with only grid

! locations from the Field Teams. I

4. Poor radio protocol by some teams suggest formalizing a standard radio message to report location and survey results. Training la radio use is required for all potential users. Field Teen radio protocol training should include stating the significance of the reading being reported; i.e. benadary, center line, general information.

Objective 12: Demonstrate ability to mobilize and denlow field monitorine teams la a timely fashion, i

j Summary: -

Not obj9ctive. C. Performance adequate, but correctable usakness was noted.

! 45 1 1 l l

m. . . . . . . . . . .

i .

l Evaluation: There were no telephones available to members of the DOG and (Continued) DAG at their designated locations. Communications from the DOG to Agencies outside the ROC was by dispatch from the .

< Communications Center. In cases where immediate response was needed, unnecessary delays would occur. IIsabers of both groups were required to find available phones sleeubere in the EOC for communications with outside Agencies.

l Recommendation: Iten'. Adequate Communications. (REP-1:F.1.b; 5.3) )

1 Evaluation: The adequacy of telephones for use by DOG and DAG; I e.g., communication between emergency organisations and the DOG l

and DAG any be hindered due to limited access to telephones.  ;

thereby creating delays la implenosting decisions. )

Recossendation for Corrective Actions: f

1. A means of communication should be established at every table. The DAG abould be in the position of monitorlag the technical information telephone, with the Facility

)

Representative taking responsibility for laterpreting that I data.

! 2. The EOC van, having a duplication of the dispatch system.

aust be parked close outside the ROC so that the staff can 1

quickly access these radios if deemed necessary.

. ~ . . . . . . ... . .... . . . . . . . . . . . .. ..

1 Evaluation: The sole decision-maker in Cowlitz County is the Sheriff or his designee. In many cases the Sheriff ande decisions during the exercise without consulting other individuals; such as those decisions regarding concurrence with 50F recommendations on PAR's. The decisions were made in the case of evacuation to 5 l and 10 miles immediately, and therefore were well within the 15 minute default time.

An assumption is made by other ROC's that the belge out-ring phone is reserved for decision-makers and is so staffed. At times it appeared that decisions were belas made not by the Sheriff, but by the communicator on the phone, a Deputy Sheriff. Recommendations would come over the phone requiring concurrence from Cowlits County and the communicator would concur, with no visible consultation with the Sheriff. While

, there may be good rapport between the two ladividuals, there were times when the Sheriff would evidence a lack of knowledge about a just-completed call confirmation. Our understanding, again, is that a decision-maker is to be on the belge out-ring )

phone since most of the background information necessary to a good decisica is given ever the phone prior to the request for

! concurrence.

l tenether the conect decisions were made is difficult to say. l If the Sherift had been on the belge phone to hear the  !

recommendations being ande, he might have made decisions other l than those he made. Also, since there was a lack of informa- '

tion in the IOC, he might not have made as fully informed a decisica as was possible The 10-s11e evacuation called for individuals to be evacuated from relatively safe areas into the center line of the plume and north along the plume of the scenario. A differest decision might have been made had thia been knoun. (IIote: See Esercise Summary Other Issees.)

We could not judge as to whether the decisions were carried out effectively la all cases. The decisions to shelter and evacuate were backed by ESS messages and by the DOG dispatchlag vehicles to accese control points.

Recommendation: Iten. Decisioamaking. (REP-1:J.9; J.10.m.: 0.4.a.)

Evaluation: The issue is that the decision-maker was not party to enough of the necessary backgreemd Saformation to make a good decision.

Recommendation for Corrective Actions:

1. The decision-maker abould be actively stafflag the belge auto-ring phone so as to hear the backgreemd laformation and be able to give ia-person concurrence.
2. A more adequate representation of plume and roadblock /

evacuation status should be readily visible to allow better decisioamaking.

Recommendation: 3. Direct laterface between the DAG sad D00. Less use of (Continued) message forms between the DOG and the Sheriff would lead to more verbal communication and a faster flow of information.

4. IIore direct communications between the D0G and their Field Teams could lead to a more timely display of laformation on which to make evacuation decisions.

Points of Review: See llodule Section G.

Evaluation: Italle the County made a declaration of emergency. It was not announced to the ROC Staff or over the radio / telephone to other

. County Agencies. A probles could therefore occur with tasking of other groups to work for the County. The lack of a continuous monitor on the green phone (technical information) meant that the decision-maker une operatlag with less than adequate information. The decision-asker should have made more

use of the Facility Representative, requesting that he brief the ROC on plaat status on a routine basis, and that he monitor the green phone. Bad there been more use of this individual and the information from the 50F, and had the phone information

, been plotted, different decisions on the movement of people i

from the affected ar'en alght have resulted.

l Objective 6: n.senstrate ability to formulate and distribute annrocriate instructions to the public in a timely fashion.

Summary: Net objective. 5. Corrective actions are considered necessary.

Points of Review: 1. Did the Counties prepare and coordinate the public instructions (EBS message content)? Yes.

I 1. Wes the content of the public instructions adequate (see Part F of the ROC Nodule)? No.

Evaluation: EBS messages (public instructions) were generally disseminated in a timely fashion, although in one case the EDS message i occurred (incorrectly) prior to the soundlag of the Cowlitz l County sirens. In addition. ISS messages did not adequately

)

- infore citizens concerning which evacuation routes should I

be used based on citizen location. This probles was due to i

inadequate prescript messages in the plan, ad-libblag and lanceurate reading of information that uns la prescript messages, and failure to use appropriate available prescript messages. Prescript messages do not currently include evacuation routes to use based on location. These messages also do not recommend evacuation of the Columbia River and related instructions. Inaccurate reading of prescript messages included identifying street locations in a some as evacuation routes that are not REP plan evacuation routes. As lacomplete use of prescript messages was the failure to broadcast Attachment SA during the General Emergency. In addition, see Objective 8 regarding EBS lastructions for the mobility lapaired.

Recommendations: Ites. Adequate Public Instructions. (REP-1 E.7; 0.4.j.)

Evaluation: EBS messages did not adequately provide lastructions to the public.

Recommendation for Corrective Actions:

1. Revise Public Instruction. Prescript EBS messages should laclude specific evacuation routes for each some requested to evacuate and a recommendation to evacuate the Columbia River with related lastructions.

! 3. The County should determine the process for developlag and includlag non-prescript emergency messages for future situations similar to the simulated evercrowding of the Lewis County Shelter Area (Cowlits County's reception area) and the openlag by the State ~of another shelter nearby.

- The DAA facilities and displays were adequate to support i emergency operations. The dose assessment status boards were updated immediately after each new dose projection calculation. Two minor problems occurred with the use of the dose assessment status boards: 1) correct units: e.g., used mR j rather than mR/hr., and 3) different color codes for sieller  !

I esposures were used on the computer projectica and measured i esposure rates status boards. Both of these items were eventually noted and corrected .ater la the esercise.

The basic facilitise for Field Team coordlaation activities

! were se specified in procedures and were adequate. Space was ,

creaped, but effectively used: particularly the use of CED for l

listing status on the overhead slanted wall, which alalained

) movement of personnel, allowed rapid updattag, and were readily j vielble throughout the 50F. This is as lagestone idea and should be considered for use la the new EOF facility.

The radios had aus111ery headphones ubich allowed personnel ,

charged with updating the statue and aspe te overhear l communications with the Field Teams and them to ladopendentiv i and lamediately update the Field Tema locations, and their readiass. This too, is sa excellent idea and should be coatianed.

L Evaluation: The communications systes available to the 20F Commualcations Area and the EOF State Liaisons were sufficient to provide expedicat and headache communications to all appropriate ,

locations, organisations and field personnel.

The 50F communications staff admirably maintained contact with the offsite ROC's via ARD for the purpose of providing verbal changes la emergency classifications PAR's and 4 - discussion / concurrence for PAR's.

, Washlagton State's 11aleon frequently utillsed phone line and systes dedicated to other users. Calls for the Washlagton State liaison were received at 1027 and 1080 on the SS-1 ,

phone. At the time of the latter communicatios., both i Washlagten representatives had the two liaison commercial i phones tied up for an estended period, leaving the Oregon State j liaison without any communications means.

, Evaluation: The DAA demonstrated their ability to commualcate with all l appropriate locations, organizations, and field personnel.

i . Commercial telephones were used for communications with the TSC, State ROC's, and local EOC's. The DAD requested  ;

laformation from the Field Teams via radio communications through the FTC.

l The Fleid Tese Coordination Group had one ground radio for

communication with PGE and the States of Oregon and Washington L Fleid Teams. There was also as serial radio for communication I with any Aerial Teams. No Aerial Teams were dispatched durlag the esercise and this capability was not demonstrated.

l i The RO's generally used adequate radio protocol such as the phonetic alphabet designations, exercise or drill statements, f and call signs. Bowever, the use of these procedures among the three R0's during the exercise was laconsistent and dependent

, on the heat of the activity. See Ob'jective a for more discussion.

1

, . It was apparent from monitoring the R0 communications that the

Oregon Field Tese et was using aca-standard procedures and

! frequently laterrupting other transmissions, j Communications were generally asistained throughout the plume

! EPI, but not within all the lagostion EPI. There were

! occasional problems in communicating with the Pos Team, but did i mot appear to seriously limit commualcations.

4 j Field Teams were given hourly updates of emergency status, protective actions and special motifications. A standard fors uns used and all Teams were polled to assess receipt. All special apdates,'IAL changes, etc., were promptly transmitted, and fease polled.

i Evaluation: With one exception, at PGE's 50F the decisionaaklag lacluded

' the appropriate ladividuale, brieflage were frequent and adequate, and instructions were communicated to appropriate I response orgaalzatione. However, some difficulties were noted

! la the handling of RI for EW's. Specifically, the EOF Staff

was informed shortly after 1000 that Cowlits County. Washington l State Field Teena, and the State of Oregos requested status of l

RI for EW's, and then unilaterally decided to admieleter II.

i Bowever, so feedback on a possible PAR of this nature was j provided to these jurisdictions until a El PAR use made at 1063, a commendable short time after the first confirmation of the presence of iodine at 1037.

en ew ne- - --,---ww.. , wmm_.

The DAA produced a PAR for RI use by EW's and special populations within 7 minutes of the receipt of the first field radiolodine data (1037 and 1044). .

The DAA did not follow EP-30. Section C, in that no ingestion pathway dose assessments or PAR's were produced until well af ter the emergency phase of the incident had passed. This lack of any discussion of possible PAR's may have contributed to the unilateral Oregon action to embargo milk.

The FTC frequently met with the DAD and the ERM to provide data from Field Teams or to accept requests promptly transmitted to the Field Teams.

All PAR's were promptly transmitted to the Field Teams, both EW PAlt's and Public PAR's: usually within sinutes.

At 1003 the FTC was informed by the DAD that Washington's E0C wanted Washington Field Tomas to take RI. That was transmitted to the Field Teams.

Recommendation: Ites. Ingestion Pathway PAR. (I.10: J.73 0.4.b.)

Evaluation: The DAA staff did not produce any short-term ingestion pathway dose essessments or PAR's during the emergency phase of the incident as required by EP-30 Section C.

Recommendation for Corrective Actions: Provide additional training to DAA staff with regard to EP-30.

Ites. Emergency Worker PAR's. (RgP-1 I.10 J.10.f.: 0.4.b.).

Evaluation: The handling of EW PAR's when the local jurisdictions have " preempted" the recommendation process.

Recommendation for Correct!ve Actions: EP-30 should be revised to address steps to take when local jurisdictions implement PAR's prior to the development of correspondlag PAR's by the 50F. Also, the means to inform ROC staffs of protective measures being implemented by the facilitys e.g., exclusion ares evacuation. RI, etc., should be established by procedures.

Objective 5: Demonstrate ability to nroject desare to the nublic via slume annosure. based on slant and field data, and to determine aanropriate nrotective measures. based on PAG's. available shelter, evacuation time estimates, and all other aanronrtate factors..

Summary: Met objective. C. Performance adequate, but correctable weakness was noted.

  • Evaluation: types of questions must be answered before any data can be (Continued) meaningfully interpreted. The best use of resources and the fewest contacts with the dairy operators, particularly outside .

the IO-mile EPZ. would seem to indicate that the sampling Team should ask these questions.

Two poten'tial problems, rot addressed by the DAA staff involves the presence or lack of presence of dairy personnel in the area which was evacuated. Also, would it be appropriate for the Team to meet with representativas of the County Agricultural. Staff (Extension Agent, etc.). .The vegetation sampling protocol seems excessive without prior low level radiation readings -- sample after establishing the presence.cf deposited activity greater than some trigger value -- perhaps 100 mR/hr.

The Dose Assessment Staff determined the tentative preventative and emergency PAG distances in accordance with EP-32 procedures. These PAG distances were relayed to the State EOC's. An initial sampling plan was developed for the ingestion pathway. However, the plan was,very general and it may require more detail before it can be implemented by the Field Teams.

Recommendation: Ites. Dose Projection. (REP-1:I.10: 0.4.b.)

Evaluation: No ingestion pathway PAR's were specified as requjred by EP-30. C.2.d.: only distance at which the preventive and emergency PAG were exceeded.

l Objective 2: Demonstrate adecuacy of facilities and disolave to suDDort enerrency operations. l l

Summary: Net objective. C. Performance adequate, but correctable l weakness was noted. I Points of Review: 1. Response time for maintaining status boards and briefing EOC staff should be 10 minutes after receipt of change in status or change in recommendation for protective actions.

2. Were the facilities and equipment adequate to support the emergency response effort?
3. Were status boards, maps, etc., adequate? l j 4. See Module Section C. i Evaluation: The facilities and displays available at the Oregon EOC were adequate to support emergency operations. All response agencies had adequate working space and the ambient noise levels of normal operational activities did not appear to hamper the performance of any of the participants. Two projection displays were used to keep the ROC staff informed of emergency conditions. Changes in EAL's and PAR's were promptly posted on the projection display. Four status boards were
available as follows: 1) Assessment Board, 2) Situation Board,
3) Resource Board, and 4) Incident Log. The Assessment Board and the Situation Board were adequately maintained throughout the exercise. However, information oss not posted on the Resource Board or the Incident Log in a timely manner. It should be emphasized that this did not significantly lapact performance since duplicate information was posted on the projection displays which became the primary status boards for the ROC. The projection display was more promptly updated and more easily visible to all personnel than either the Resource ,

Board or the Incident Log. At approximately 0943, erroneous '

information regarding an evacuation PAR was incorrectly posted on one of the projection displays and the Situation Board.

This error was promptly recognised and corrected on the projection display and was corrected in a briefing of ROC personnel. However, the erroneous informatina was not corrected on the Situation Board and the incorrect information i remained on this board until approximately 1030.

. Recommendation: Item. Adequate Display. (REP-1:5.3; O.4.g.)

Evaluation: See above.

i Recommendation for Corrective Actions: Information on the Resource Board and the Incident Log were more promptly posted and more easily read on the projection displays. We believe that space could be more effectively utilised if the Resource Board and the Incident Log were removed from the 50C.

Alternately, the Status Board plotters should be trained to  ;

update these boards in a more timely manner. The Status Board plotters should be trained to periodically check the accuracy of information posted on the Situation Board.

Objective 3: Demonstrate ability to communicate with all approorlate locations. organizations, and field Dersonnel.

Summary: Net objective. C. Performance adequate, but correctable weakness was noted.

Points of Review 1. Were communication systems adequate (i.e., enough phones, necessary dedicated circuits, etc.)?

2. Were the systems used properly?
3. See Module Section D.

Evaluation: Communications to and from the Oregon State EOC were generally very good. The Automatic Ring-down Circuit Selective Signaling Circuit and Public Information Circuit, as well as all land line telephones, were operational throughout the exercise. These communication systems were effectively utilized and they provided for fast and reliable coordination of Oregon's information with the licensee, Washington State and i Columbia and Cowlitz Counties. At approximately 0930 backup l radio communications via the RF Radio link with Columbia County was lost. A National Guard van equipped with a State Police radio and a State Police Officer trained to operate this radio was dispatched to a location at the Columbia County patrol office to reestablish radio communications with the county.

This action was simulated. Loss of radio communications with Columbia County is not considered a deficiency since radio is the backup communications link.

Recommendation: Item. Communications. (REP-1:F.1.d.; 0.4.g.)

i Evaluation: The Oregon State Procedures specify that the existing radio communications systes rather than the dedicated telecommunications system is the primary means for communication between the Oregon EOC and the Columbia E0C for requesting and coordinating assistance. (See Attachment 9, page END-85.)

Recommendation for Corrective Actions: The procedure should be reviewed and revised to indicate that the Automatic Ring-down Circuit is the primary means for coordination with Columbia County.

Item. Communications. (REP-1:F.1.d.)

Evaluation: Some participants noted that the volume of the Automatic Ring-down Circuit and the PIO Circuit were weak.

Recommendation for Corrective Actions: Circuits should be investigated to determine corrections.

  • 4 Objective 4: Lemonstrate ability to make decisions and to coordinate emerrency activities.

Summary: Net objective.

Points of Review: 1. Were appropriate representatives included in the decision process and provided adequate briefing and logistic support?

2. Did the persons arrive at decisions within the 15 minute default time?
3. Did the correct person make the decisions?
4. Were the decisions carried out effectively?
5. Were the correct protective action decisions made?
8. Were the laplementation instructions for protective measures telephonically dispatched to the appropriate l response organizations? '
7. Were the decision-makers notified of the time that the implementation actions were executed? (Note: Indicate time required for deliberation of decision-makers for each 1 PAR to PAD. Recommendations: #1 (River Evacuation) -

9:07; #2 (Shelter) - 0918; #3 (School Evacuation) - 0937;

  1. 4 (KI) - 1009; and #5 (10-a11e Evacuation) - 10:11.) i
8. See Module Sections 3 and E.

Evaluation: In each of the major PAD's involving persons in the plume EPZ, the Oregon EOC fully participated to the extent necessary where decisions required input and coordination with other 50C Staff. Key staff were consulted to the degree necessary to arrive at a reasonable decision. In most instances decisions were arrived at in a timely manner. Extensive use of the i automatic ring-doun phone system facilitated the dissemination and coordination of these decisions with key organizations

outside of the State of Oregon.

The decision to place cattle on stored feed did not appear to be adequately coordinated with Cowlitz and Columbia Counties or the State of Washington, in that the decision was made and was implemented by Gregon Agriculture without discussion with, or notification to, those jurisdictions.

Summary: Net objective.

, Points of Review: 1. Did the counties prepare and coordinate the public instructions (EBS message content)?

2. Was the content of the public instructions adequate?

(See Part F of the EOC Nodule.)

e Evaluation: The KRAM broadcasts by the Governor were accurate, timely and i appropriate. Instructions to the public via news briefings were l sometimes unintentionally handled by the inappropriate individual or agency: e.g., Agriculture discussions (decisions and actions) on stored feed and embargoed allk from dairies within plume EPZ (4th Press Conference); statements by Governor that no PAR's are l necessary beyond 10 miles (3rd Press Conference).

0bjective 6: h irate ability to brief the media in a clear. accurate, and

Summary: Net objective. C. Performance adequate, but correctable weakness was noted.

Points of Review: 1. Were all press releases approved by the designee? No. (See Objective 7.)

2. Were the press releases properly disseminated to the appropriate release points? Not observed.
3. Were news conferences held or simulated? Yes. Was a i schedule for news conferences developed and posted? Yes.

I 4. Did the PIO ensure that media questions (telephone) were l answered accurately and in a timely manner? No. .(See Objective 8.)

5. See Module Section I.

Evaluation: Oregon is to be commended for the laprovements in its Media  !

Center. Staff assigned there were knowledgeable about their I t

duties and responsibilities and responsive to requests for

) information and assistance. The addition of the radio link to the ROC enhanced the Media Center's PIO ability to question and receive information from the IOC Staff. The timing and frequency of news briefings was determined to be appropriate. The lack of media player participation prevented a thorough evaluation of player's ability to handle stressful media encounters. On occasion, Oregon E0C's Media Center Briefers overstepped their bounds unintentionally in the areas of PAR's and agricultural

issues. (See Objective 5 evaluation.)

Objective 7: Demonstrate ability to creDare and Drovide advance coordination j of information releases.

Summary: Net objective. B. Corrective actions are considered necessary.

Points of Review: 1. Did the PIO coordinate to-be-released information with the other locations prior to release to the media? No.

2. Did the PIO have access to all necessary information? Yes.
3. Did the PIO incorporate the appropriate "Public Instructions" into the appropriate media releases (Public Information)?

Yes.

4. See Module Section I.

Evaluation: Oregon's assignment of an individual to coordinate news releases on the, Blue Phone was appropriate and, for the most part, coordination was done prior to release. On one or two occasions.

" coordination" took place after Oregon had released the

information; hence, coordination on those occasions was almost superfluous, although the need for corrections or retractions might have been discovered even at that late point.

Persons at the ROC charged with coordination did not understand their duties; e.g., concurrence, information review, accuracy check, etc.

l Attachment 8-B, (END-65) and 8-C (E35-66) requires the review, prior to release, by PGE Technical Representatives, Oregon /PGE i PIO Liaison Officers, External Coordinator, PIO, and DPIO. In l addition, the Oregon EOC News Release form provides spaces for i

sign-off to indicate concurrence by the Governor, Technical l Advisor, PIO, POE and the Blue Phone (other organisations).

Direct observation and a review of news releases as issued shows l no instance where sign-off for all was obtained, and several instances where none were obtained.

In one case where no sign-offs were made (NR84) a 10-mile i evacuation was reported. This was in conflict with the PAR in effect at the time. In another case (NR81) telephone numbers not intended for the public were published for Neshington State and Cowlitz County. The former has serious health-related realfications. The latter would have seriously lapaired State and County phone communications.

I Item. Media Operation. (REP-1:G.4.a. A b.; 0.4.J.) j l

Evaluation: Approval and sign-off process was not followed.

Incorrect releases were issued.

Recommendation for Corrective Actions: Review current procedures. Rewrite to describe the approvals / sign-offs which are mandatory prior to release. Draft procedures to describe the use of the sign-off blocks on the news release form. Conduct training on procedures.

l l Objective 8: Demonstrate ability to establish and operate rumor control in a i

coordinated fashion.

i Summary: Net objective. S. Corrective actions are considered necessary.

Points of Review: 1. Did the PIO establish a log to track rumors? Not observed.

2. Did the PIO promptly report rumors or aloinformation to the appropriate officials. Yes.

! 3. Did the PIO develop, coordinate and release public i

information releases to counter the rumors or alsinformation? No.

4. Did the PIO coordinate their rumor control operation with other locations? No.

S. See Module Sectica I.

Evaluation: Oregon State has implemented an electronic process and procedures for providing current information to the Rumor control Center.

Each Team Member has a Nang Station. When the ROC issues hard copy, that text is sent to each Wang Statloa. That text and later texts serve as the only laformed source for the Team Member to use in responding to public and media inquiries. A total of 12 releases were prepared and made available via the Wang System in a prompt manner.

TheRumorControlCenterreceived87callsfromtheControlCeIl 1

during the exercise. Of these calls, approxiestely 384 were

! incorrectly answered or not answered. (See Objective 9.) The

2. The State's Rumor Control should forward requests to State ROC for referral / transmittal to Columbia County EOC. (Note:

Track how long it takes requests to move from Rumor Control to State EOC and from State ROC to Columbia County EOC.)

l i Evaluation: Nobility Impaired (telephone) calls received by Rumor Control

) from individuals with impaired mobility were not forwarded to the .

1 EOC. However, such individuals were referred to Sheriff.

Assistance Centers, or instructed to put out white cloth, which any be a more reasonable plan. Of the 6 NI calls received, the persons were'not uniformly ordered to display white sheet. None of the calls were given the Sheriff's phone number. They were just told to " call the Sheriff."

Summary: -

Net objective. C. Performance adequate, but correctable weakness aos noted.

Points of Review: 1. Were communications systems adequate (i.e.. enough phones, necessary dedicated circuits, etc.)? Yes.

2. Were the systems used properly? No.
3. See Module Section D.

Evaluation: Field Teams had problems with the phonetic alphabet and were insufficiently trained in the use of the car radio phones.

Field Team #2 did not use correct radio protocol in the  ;

transmission of information across the radio channels. This resulted in some confusion including talk over other Field Team transmissions and a misunderstood instruction to investigate the plume bounduries. This misunderstanding resulted in the Team entering the plume center.

Recommendation: Iten. Cosaunications. (REP-1:F.1.d.; 0.4.J.)

l Evaluation: See above.

Obiective 11: Demonstrate ability to mobilize and denlow field monitoring teams in a timely fashion.

Summary: Not objective. B. Corrective actions are considered necessary.

i

! Points of Review: See Module Section A.

Evaluation: Very rapid mobilization and deployment of Field Teams was demonstrated. Rosever, mobilisation time was unrealistic j because personnel were kept from normal duties in a central I office area prior to the exercise. Equipment and esterials were pre-staged prior to activation. Team mobilisation was completed in 2 minutes. Actual departure from the facility was completed in 15 minutes.

Evaluation:: A systes of notification for off-hours mobilization has been (Continued) implemented . However,.during normal work hours personnel are dispatched to many different locations with no easy means.of contact in the event of an emergency. Comments from Team members expressed concerns about the ability of the State to mobilize these Field Teams once the individual Team members had been deployed into the field on daily work assignments.

Probably no more than one-third of the Team personnel would be available during normal work hours.

Recommendation: Item. Mobilization. (REP-1:E.2)

Evaluation: See above.

Recommendation for Corrective Actions: Develop a means to contact energency response personnel during work hours. (Note:

The existing paging system could provide this notification capability.

Objective 12: Demonstrate appropriate eauinment ans' orocedures for determining ambient radiation levels.

Summary: Net objective. B. Corrective actions a?e considered necessary. .

Points of Review: 1. See Module Sections B. C, E, and F.

2. See paper " Role of Dose Projection System: Offsite Verification System.

Evaluation: The Teams demonstrated that they could adequately track the plume and determine the ambient radiation levels. Personnel were trained to control their own exposures. However, the need for additional emphasis on periodic dosimeter checks should be reinforced. Routine 30-minute dosimeter checks were not always accomplished in a timely manner. Sampling and analysis techniques were good and experienced personnel even noticed that leaving samples to close to the counter could create j misleading results. The Aerial Field Kit was not prepared; instruments had been removed for calibration. Substitute instruments were available from stock in the area. Ground Field Kits contained instruments that were out of calibration.

Procedures require Field Teams to respond to the EOF with survey result locations using the grid coordinate system and a direction and distance from the plant. Determining direction and distance was less accurate than the grid locations and was difficult for Team members to accomplish.

! The calculator used with the Kit uses a led display and was 1 very difficult to see during the exercise. Galy one set of I

Anti-C's were taken with the Kit and Team asebers were not clear on their use.

, Recommendation: Item. Notification. (REP-1;E.2) l Evaluation: We believe the reason the notification of response l personnel took so long was because the Director of Emergency  !

! Services and/.or his delegate was performing too many functions l l !acluding making notification calls after a GE. It is apparent '

! that when the C-Com makes their calls, they are accomplished l quickly (8 minutes and la minutes) but when the notification duty is shifted to the Director of Emergency Services at the GE the time lacreases considerably (33 minutes) dhd still not completed because key people have too much to do.

! Recommendation for Corrective Actions: Recommend that all notification duties at all classifications be assigned by l procedures to the Consunications Center.

Objective 2: Demonstrate ability to fully staff facilities and maintain staffine around the clock. ,

Summary: -

Net objective. 3. Corrective actions are considered necessary. j i Points of Review: See Module Section A, Questions 18-30.

i Ivaluation: Twenty-four hour staffing was demonstrated by two shift 1 changes. These shift changes were intended to occur at d

approximately 1000 and 1130. Given the rapid deterioration

! of plant conditions and upgrades of emergency classifications.

shift changes were performed so that minimal disruption would j occur and to provide for a smooth transfer of responsi-bilities. Briefings were provided to incoming staff and they were generally knowledgeable of their roles and responsi- ,

bilities.

It was evident that during periods of heavy information flow,

there was lasufficleat staff to carry out the many responsi-

^

bilities required at the mala operations / decision-maker's table. The Director of Emergency Services and Deputy Director

were not able to simultaneously respond to auto ring-doun

2. Were the systems used properly?
3. See Nodule Sectica D.

/

{ Evaluation: The communications equipment evallable at the Columbia County EOC was adequate in providing necessary primary and backup redundant communication links. Communications equipment was l

promptly set up and onde operational during the initial activation procedures demonstrated at the IOC. The dedicated

! phones used during the exercise, in general functioned well.

' There were some difficulties observed during the early stages of the exercise with the Blue Phone (or the PIO phone) and the automatic ring-down (Belge Phone). The problems experienced with the Blue Phone consisted of confusion in deteretning who was answering and/or on-line for discussions. In addition, 1 auserous times during the transmiselos from Coluable County there were disconnects for no apparent reason. The cause of this problem was not easily determined from the ROC, but it I appeared that it was operational error on the other end of the phone. A sieller problem was observed on the Beige Phone when transmissions and discussions were laterrupted by other parties attempting to use the phone while Columbia was on the line.

4 The other dedicated systems used by the ROC staff performed flawlessly, providing a rapid consistent communications link.

On the first EBS message transmission over the KBAN circuit, i

the recording mechanise located at KBAN was inoperative -- the I message was transmitted accurately but somewhat slowly.

l i

The subsequent EBS messages (2) emperienced no such delays as the recording system at NBAN became operational. The multiple radio systems present in the ROC Comenaications Center were functional during the exercise and operated without problems.

Except for the Beergency Service Net which became inoperable i

j during the early stages of the esercise and remained unusable, 4

the problem appears to be with the radio unit (or equiposat).

The facsimile machine used to transmit and receive hard-copy messages also functioned without error throughout the exercise. The speed and clarity of the treassission over I

Evaluation: the system were very good. The operations of all the (Continued) communications systems demonstrated at the EOC were done properly.

i Delays were experienced in the receipt of the Accident Notification / Assessment Forms transmitted from the ROF.

These delays increased as the exercise proceeded. (Note:

Seven Accident Assessment / Notification Forms were sent to Columbia County; the 7 forms took 4, 14, 17, 27, 30, 54, and 71 minutes (chronologically) to be received at Columbia County.)

l Objective 5: Demonstrate ability to make decisions and to coordinate esermency activities.,

Summary: Met objective.

Points of Review: 1. Were appropriate representatives included la the decision f

process and provided adequate briefing and logistic support? Yes.

! 2. Did the persons arrive at decisions within the 15 minute default time? Yes.

4 3. Did the correct person make the decisions? Yes.

4. Were the decis.lons carried out effectively? Yes.
5. Were the correct protective action decisions made? Yes.

1 Evaluation: The Columbia County BOC demonstrated the ability to make decisions and to coordinate emergency activities. Although l Columbia County is responsible for laplementatloa, they do participate in the decisioamaking process and concur with PAR's recommended by the Trojan EOF. The decistos authority lies with the State ROC with impleasatation responsibility resting with the County:

1. Director of Emergency Services, acting as behalf of the County Commissioners, use the lead and decision-maker for i Columbia County. Briefings were provided free Trojan i sufficient for the County to make decisions.

Evacuation to 5 miles: 0950 - concurrence immediatelys Evacuation to 10 miles - 1009 - concurrence immediately.

KI for Special Populations - concurrence lamediately.

3. All concurrence with PA recommendations were made by the  !

Director of Emergency Services.

! 4. DOG immediately started to implement PAR decisions; setting l up predetermined roadblocks, sirens, public notices, etc.

5. Based upon plant status, the recommendations from the plant

! seemed appropriate. Certainly the PAR decisions that Columbia County concurred with were appropriate.

6. Contacted by D00 or implemented by DOG. .
7. Response action board ladicated time actions completed.

In every case, the County concurred with the PAR and they did

so immediately. The decisions to shelter and to evacuate were the correct ones based upon plant status and later actual releases into the offsite environment. The D00 immediately started to implement the PA decielos by manalag access

roadblocks. The Director of Emergency Services coordinated with Cowlitz county about public tastruction messages on ESAN.

County can effectively participate in the decision process and direct the implementation of plume PA's.- -

l Three weaknesses were observed in regard to the " coordination" l portion of the objectives: 1) Director of Emergency Services l did not brief his total staff in sufficleat detail on current

! status of the soorgency and response activities; 3)' Director of Emergency Services was diverted free higher priority duties by i personally perforetag " notification" duties; and 3) Director of

! Emergency Services was burdened by answering " Rumor Control"

questions. It should be reemphasised that the primary and l highest priority responsibilities of the Director of Emergency Services are to direct laplementation of the plume PA's; to ensure the warning and public actification are accomplished and i to activate and supervise the ROC. Other kinds of functions 4

should not be done by the Director as they laterfere with these l primary duties. (See Objective #1 and #2.)

Obiective 6: Demonstrate the abilities of the ressoase orzanisation to effectively utilise sannort amencies and authorities where/when

l Evaluation: The ROC. DOG, demonstrated ability to utilize support agencies when local capabilities 1 sere exceeded or expected to be exceeded. The Sheriff requested assistance from USCG. Oregon State Police, State Health Department and Oregon National Guard.

Assistance was requested from other agencies based upon immediate need or upon projected and precautionary need.

Resources from other other agencies were requested in timely manner and as appropriate in anticipation of future needs; e.g., National Guard.

Objective 7: Demonstrate ability to formulate and distribute anoropriate instructions to the nublic in a timely fashion.

Summary: Net objective. C. Performance adequate, but correctable weakness was noted.

Point of Review: 1. Did the Counties prepare and coordinate the public instructions (EBS message content)? Yes.

2. Was the content of the public instructions adequate (see Part P cf the ROC Nodule)? No.

Evaluation: Three RSS messages were transmitted from the Columbia County.

E0C. The first occurred at 0925 and covered the 10-mile sheltering PAR. The second BBS message was disseelnated at 1

0958 and addressed the 5-elle evacuation, the 5-10 alle sheltering and the Coluable County school evacuation. The third EBS message included the to-mile evacuation and EW administration of KI; this message was disseminated at 1022.

These three prescriptive EBS messages were disseminated by different individuals and generally they were handled clearly and within the default time. The messages specifically addressed sheltering procedures, lastructions for transient evacuation, instructions for schoolchildren, and specific evacuation instructions for the populations within 2.5, 5 and i 10 miles of the plant. Rumor control issues were act addressed publicly through separate EBS messages. '

Recommendation: Itse. Public Instruction. (RgP-1:E.7)

Evaluation: See above.

Recommendation for Corrective Acticos: Revise Public Instructions. Include text la prescriptive BBS messages for automatic evacuation of the Columbia River. l l

3. See Module Section F.

Evaluation: Three public alerting activations occurred during the exercise. Each stren activation was coordinated between Cowlitz and Columbia Counties. The first stren activation was performed by the Director of Emergency Services and consisted of a siren test. The corresponding EBS message was read to the EBS station by the Deputy Director. The second siren -

i

' activation was simulated by Columbia County and the follow-up EBS message was disseminated by the Director of Emergency i

1 Services. The third siren activation was performed by Cowlitz County and the EBS message for Columbia County was transmitted l by the PIO following authorisation by the Director of Emergency

. Services.

Recommendation: Ites. ANS Coordination. (REP-1:I.51 0.4.J.)

Evaluation: Coordination of the siren sounding and EBS dissemination could not be initially confirmed by the PIO because the PIO was unsure of who was responsible for sounding the sirene; this information should have been given to the PIO.

Recommendation for Corrective Actions: Training should be  !

) provided to ensure that all authorized individuals are faellier with stres activation and coordination and BBS message dissemination. Ideally for each event, ese persons could 1 i

activate siress and seed RSS messages.

Point of Review: See Module section G.

4 Evaluation: At 0934 the Director of Emergency Services determined that evacuation of all schools in Columbia County out to 10 miles was appropriate. Concurrence with the Washington and Oregon State ROC's and Cowlits County was initially delayed but this PAR was included in the 0958 ESS message. Other responses to implement this PAR was simulated within the ROC and no buses l

were activated to demonstrate this objective.

f j Evaluation: Yhe Sheriff (D00) is prepared to provide special transportation to those impaired individuals who need and request this assistance. Reiguests for this type assistance came in and was j acted upon. A log was maintained of assistance requests and the time of completion. An esemple of transportation provided was senior citizens needing transportation. Assistance was provided and completed within 42 alautes.

The Sheriff demonstrated that the ROC is orgaalsed and has the necessary responses to provide transportation to mobility

impaired individuals. Additional resources are available if i 1 aumerous requests abould come las that le buses, ambulances, or i vehicles from other County Departments.

l i

Points of Review: 4. Did the Coluable County PIO ensure that media questions j (Continued) (telephone) were answered accurately and in a timely manner? j

5. See Module Section I. . .

i Evaluation: The ability to adequately brief the media in a clear, accurate and timely manner was demonstrated. Direct contact with the j media was not experienced at the 160C. Any media inquiries which would have occurred at the county E0C would have been directed to the Media Center at the State EOC in Sales. Thw lead PIO at Columbia County could be available to brief the media if needed, but this function would be discouraged. Press releases generated in Columbia County were completed using data input from responding agencies and the operation directions staff at the ROC. They were in general complete, concise, and accurate in content. However, none of the seven news releases contained any information depicting shelter or evacuation recommendation areas by familiar landmarks / boundaries. These items should appear in 1 appropriate news releases. In addition, rumor ccatrol inquiries  !

received were well handled but follow-up clarification and l discussion were not included in any news release. News releases were drafted and typed in the PIO area, then presorted to the Director of Emergency Services for approval. The releases were j then offered to the other emergency operations areas (Washington  !

EOC, Oregon EOC, Cowlitz EOC, PGE, and Trojan) for concurrence l and approval on content and informational accuracy. This 1 operation occurred over the dedicated PIO (Blue) Phone. In all 1

seven instances approval and concurrence was obtained with only very minor alterations. Mard copies were provided to all appropriate agencies and locations following approval.

An ongoing log of information released to the media was not maintained, but copies of all releases were flied and available fo: reference. The filicg system used in the P!O area was not efficient or orderly. This did not cause any difficulties during

the exercise, but we believe it is essential that a rapid and

! accurate filing and logging systes be utilised. A system to log l

and record message flow through the PIO area should be implemented. This could be incorporated into an improved filing system.

l Recommendation: Ites. Media Operation. (REP-1:G.4.3 0.4.j.)

Evaluation: News release information did not always contain useful public protection information that was available.

Recommendation for Corrective Actions: We suggest the'following ,

be addressed la training sessions: Faallier landmarks / boundaries )

for protective action areas should be lacluded in the news releases. News releases should include the information used to satisfy Rumor Control inquiries. I,ogs should be maintained by the PIO staff of news release information. Copies of ESS messages should be posted next to the news releases displayed outside the ROC entrance fot review by media representatives.

Obiective 12: Demonstrate ability to nrenare and nrovide advance coordination of information releases.

Summary: Net objective. C. Performance adequate, but correctable weakness was noted. .

I Points of Review: 1. Did the PIO coordinate to-be-released information with the

- other locations prior to release to the media? Yes.

2. Did the PIO have access to all necessary information? Yes.
3. Did the PIO incorporate the appropriate "Public Instructions" into the appropriate media relsenes (Public Information)? No.

l 4. See Module Section I.

Evaluation: Columbia County FIO's coordinated the news release content and information with appropriate locations. Conference calls were held with all locations on the " Slue Phone" to verify news releases. Upon verification and concurrence with the other '

responding operations (i.e. Cowlits County, Washington EOC.

Oregon BOC. Trojan) the news release is transmitted in hard-copy to Oregon EOC in Sales for presentation to the media at the News j

Center. The PIO's were receiving information to be incorporated

into the news releases from the IOC's DOG in Columbia County. ,

Access to all pertinent and necessary information~was available to i the PI0's. Appropriate instructions to the public were incorporated into the news releases with the exception of those items discussed under objective 11 (rumor control information.

faalliar landmarks and boundaries). Internal operations within l the PIO staff require some reevaluation and changes. This was i j never an outstanding probles but assignments and specific duties should be known by all the PIO staff.

! Points of Review 4. Did the PJO develop, coordinate and release public inforantion (Continued) releases to ter the rumors or alsinformation? No.

5. Did the PIO coordinate their rumor control operation with other locations? No.
6. See Module Section I.

Evaluation: The Rumor Control function was activated and operational in Columbia County during the exercise. Prior to arrival of the PIO staff, the ROC rumor control inquiries were handled by the Deputy Director of Emergency Services. This proved to be overwhelming in

- addition to the other duties assigned to that position. (See

. Objective 1 and 2.) When the PIO function was operational in the 50C, Rumor Control was addressed by the PIO Staff. According to procedures, Columbia County should defer all questions to the State Rumor Operation la Sales Oregos. During the exercise, some calls were handled by the PIO Staff and others were deferred to j the Oregon E0C. Those calls responded to by Columbia County were 1 act adequately handled. There was no logging system in operation to track rumor inquiries. Rumors or misinformation were not reported to appropriate officials in the IOC. News releases were 1 -

not coordinated and developed to counter the rumors or substantiate the information given. And the PIO's did not 4 coordinate rumor control operations with other locations.

Recommendation: Ites. Rumor Control Operations. (RgP-1:6.4.c.; 0.4.J.)

Evaluation. Rumor Control functions are not well defined at the I EOC. For some rumor calls, procedures were followed which directed the calls to Salee ROC. Other calls were answered at the County FIO area. In most lastances the calls were not treated l '

adequately.

i Recommendation for Corrective Actions. Review and revise I l

proce. dure. Trata staff. Procedures should be nodified (or enforced) to assure a uniform and consistent Rumor Control function. Additional training should be provided to PIO staff so that all appropriate Rumor Control Operations can be addressed.

APPENDIX I StastARY OF EXERCISE OBJECTIVES AND F.XERCISE EVALUATION l

l Introduction.

! 1. NUREG 0654/ FEMA-REP-1, Rev. 1 (November 1980) specifies that all major elements of the response plans and procedures of the Licensee. State (s) and local governments are tested over a 5-year period. Furthermore, every 6 years an exercise shall start between 1800 and midnight and another between midnight and 0600. The exercise criteria was seended by a FEMA Guidance Memorandum (10/01/85) which changed the 5-year cycle to a 6-year cycle and the off-houre

, exercise requirements from two esercises to one exercise starting between 1800 and 0400 once every 8 years.

2. FEMA promulgated to the FEMA Regions specific exercise evaluation policy in August 1983. The exercise uniforetty policy specified the use of nine " modules" for establishing the objective basis for evaluation and a specific set of " objectives" to track the demonstration of the preparedness elements of the response plans and procedures.
3. This appendix is composed of three parts:

Part I.

A tabulation of the response elements within each of the nine l modules. This tabulation is posted, using a function code, to indicate l by year or exercise what response elements have been tested.

i l Part II.

, A tabulation of the response elements within each of the nine modules. These response elements are further broken down lato the 1

Individual objectives that summarise sub-elements of the response plans and procedures. These objectives are posted, using a function code, to indicate by year or exercise what response elements have been tested.

4 Part !!I.

A Summary Listing of Deficiencies, by exercise or drill, with j scheduled commitment and realisation dates e.g., if a response element

or objective has a function code "1" (Demonstrated. Recommended

! for corrective Action), that deficiency and recommended corrective j action will be found in Part III. As indicated in Part I or Part II, the deficiency will be detailed stating appropriate organisation and current status, t

PUBLIC INFORMATION: Information delivered to the media via press conferences, interviews, technical briefings, printed media releases, and telephonic distribution of printed releases. Information should be current. accurate, and timely. All printed releases should be coordinated with other authorities before distribution to the media. Ideally, information released la news

{ conferences, briefings, and interviews should be coordinated before release.

If pre-coordination does not occur, then post-notification to other authorities of critical points discussed in interviews, conferences, etc., should occur.

FUNCTIONAL (Activated) The EOC/ EOF / Assistance Center /JIC/ Emergency Worker Center / Laboratory, etc., should be considered functional (activated) when the emergency facility is minimelly staffed (essential portions) and capable of performing the critical emergency functions assigned to that facility. ,

OPERATIONAL: The IOC/ EOF /JIC/ Assistance Center / Emergency Worker Center / Laboratories, etc., are fully staffed and capable of performing all emergency functions assigned to that facility.

Evaluator Comments (continued)

That which the Realth Department is to do; that which is originated by other organizations; that which requires analysis; that which requires external coordination, may potentially conflict; e.g.,

o According to Plan, Realth doesn't do plume PAR's, except they and Agriculture did place cattle on stored feed in the plume EPZ (only).

o Realth had Governor's concurrence on KI for Field Teams. Plan says concurrence by Governor not needed. (Repeat -- their analysis was correct, however).

o Health didn't seem to consider problems'(was there enough, where, etc.) of KI in special populations but did seek confirmation it had been administered.

l j APPENDIX IV ROLE OF DOSE PROJECTION SYSTEM AND OFFSITE VERIFICATION SYSTEN By Richard W. Donovan, FEMA RX/RAC Chairman Federal Regional Center, Bothell, WA 98021 (206) 481-8800 The purpose of an energency response organization accident assessment /

verification system should not be limited to protection of the public from actual exposure. It should include real time public reassurance during a minor / moderate release as well as a major release. It should include monitoring and documentation of actual radiological conditions in the environment, and assessment of radiation dose to the public (including special population and emergency workers) regardless of magnitude. It should also provide the methodololgy for estimating total dose comaltaents to the public in all affected areas following the termination of all releases (controlled and uncontrolled from an incident).

Dose assessment and protective action recommendations should be the result of two processes:

1. Onsite Jose projection system which is capable of producing dose projections based on plume pathway modeling that is driven by readings, plant parameters, release rates, monitors etc.; and ingestion pathway modeling that is driven by uptake data, deposition assumptions, etc.
2. Offsite rate / dose verification sytem based upon field monitoring, sample collection, and analysis.

Onsite Dose Projection Systes The onsite dose projection system can be either manual or computerized and is usually based upon release rates (real and projected), isotopic analysis, meteorological data, plume dispersion model, and a dose estimation model.

The plume and ingestion models should integrate doses beyond 10 miles and 50 miles for both emergency planning pathways. A annagement system for dispatching field teams collecting data, analyzing data, and closing the protective action process si.ould be developed that will allow an orderly transition from the plume emergency phase into the ingestion phase and the recovery reentry process.

The dose projection system o.Sould compute projections of integrated dose estimates. These projections of potential exposure (plume and lagostion pathway) should be sufficiently conservative to preclude under-estimation of dose tapact.

The dose projection system should have a primary and backup capability.

The backup calculation method should be ande as consistent.as possible with the primary method with regard to consistency in conservation for dose projections.
