Docket No.: 50-425 4 Juli 1937 Mr. James P. O'Reilly Senior Vice President - Nuclear Operations Georgia Power Company P. O. Box 4545 Atlanta, Georgia 30830

Dear Mr. O'Reilly:

Subject:

Request for Additional Information Regarding Offsite Medical Services for Vogtle Unit 2 Enclosed please find IE Information Notice No. 86-98: Offsite Medical Services which was distributed on December 2,1986, to all nuclear reactor facilities holding an operating license or a construction permit. The information notice transmitted Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Guidance Memorandum (GM) MS-1, " Medical Services," that addresses implementation of the Commission policy on offsite medical services published on September 17, 1986, in the Federal Register (51_FR 32904).

A critical deadline is approaching for plants that did not have a full power operating license on the effective date of the GM (November 13,1986). The implementation section of the GM states, " Plans for plants that do not have a l

full power operating license should reflect the provisions of this GM within 9 months of the effective date of the CM" (i.e., August 13,1987). Because Vogtle Unit 2 will receive a full power licensing decision after August 13, 1987, it will be necessary for the offsite plans to reflect the provisions of Guidance Memorandum MS-1.

Therefore, it is important that this infonnation be submitted to FEMA in a timely manner to support the unit's full power license.

The NRC would like to be aware of the status of the offsite medical services arrangements in order to determine any potential delays in FEMA findings.

Within 15 days of the date of this letter, please provide a brief report on the status of arrangements for medical services in the offsite plans for Vogtle Unit 2 vis a vis the guidancc in MS-1.

In particular, please identify the schedule for submission of offsite medical services information to FEMA's regional office (s).

Since ely, Mela i A. Miller, Protect Manager Project Directorate II-3 Division of Reactor Projects-I/II

Guidance Memorandum (GM) MS-1, Medical Services ne attached GM MS-1, Medical Services, is forwarded for your use in providing guidance to State and local officials in developing their i

radiological energency response plans and in evaluating the nadical services capabilities of State and local governments.

Se origins of this m and its development and approval have been acmewhat' different fran other m's.

his m was developed as a result of a series of legal decisions involving NRC which determined that the existing interpretation of the required pre-accident medical arrangements for contaninated injured individuals as not sufficient. Those decisions led NRC to issue a policy statement (Attachment B) on September 17, 1986, -

indicating that the NRC staff (in consultation with FDIA) would develop detailed guidance on the necessary pre-accident arrangements fbr medical services by Nmember 11, 1986.

i We have worked closely with NRC in recent weeks in the preparation of this guidance. Unforttnately, the short deadline did not permit our j

usual procedure of obtaining Regional and other connents before issuing

~

this final guidance.

If you have any questions about MS-1, you may contact James tomas at 646-2808. A list of all current operative G4's (Attacknent C) is also prcvided for your information.

['k h Federal Emergency Management Agency Washington, D.C. 20472 GUIDANCE MEMORANDUM MS-1 MEDICAL SERVICES i

_ Purpose This Guidance Memorandum (GM) provides interpretation and clarification of requirements contained in the Nuclear Regulatory Cornission rule,10 CFR 50.47 (b)(12) and the associated guidance in NUREG-0654/FEVA-REP-1, Revision 1, re-

)

lated to the provision of medical services for members of the general public.

Background

The background is contained in a policy statement from the Nuclear Regulatory Comission (NkC) titled " Emergency Planning - Medical Services" (51 FR 32904).

In this policy statement, NRC states its belief that 10 CFR 50.47(b)TI2)

(" arrangements are made for medical services for contaminated injured individuals") requires pre-accident arrangements for medical services (beyond the maintenance of a list of treatment facilities) for individuals who might be severely exposed to dangerous levels of offsite radiation following an accident at a nuclear power plant. As used in 10 CFR 50.47(b)(12) and planning Standard "L" of NUREG-0654/FEPA-REP-1, Revision 1, the tem " contaminated injured" means

1) contaminated and otherwise physically injured; 2) contaminated and exposed to dangerous levels of radiation; or 3) exposed to dangerous levels of radiation.

Guidance i

10 CFR 50.47 (b)(12) requires.that " Arrangements are made for contaminated injured individuals." In its policy statement the NRC determined that this standard requires pre-accident arrangements for medical services for offsite individuals who might be exposed to dangerous levels of radiation following an accident at a nuclear power plant.

The following guidance applies to the eval-wation of the medical services aspects of State and local emergency plans under the criteria in NUREG-0654/TEMA-REP-2.

i Standards. Evaluations Criteria. Areas of Reviews and Acceptance Criteria A.

Assignment of Responsibility (Organization Control) i Plannino 5tandard Primary responsibilities for emergency response by the nuclear facility licensee, and by State and local organizations within the Emergency Planning Zones have been assigned, the emergency responsibilities of the various sup-l porting organizations have been specifically established, and each principal response organization has staff to respond and to augment its initial response on a. continuous basis.

l Attachm:nt 1 IN 86-98 December 2, 1986 l

Page 3 of 12 i

A.3. Evaluation Criterion Each plan shall include written agreements referring to the concept of operations developed between Federal, State, and local agencies and other support organizations having an emergency response role within the Emergency Planning Zones.

The agreements shall identify the emergency measures to be provided and the mutually acceptable criteria for their implementation, and specify the arrangements for exchange of infor1r.ation. These agreements may be provided in an appendix to the plan or the plan itself may contain descriptions of these matters and a signature page in the plan may serve to verify the a g reements. The signature page femat is appropriate for organizations where response functions are covered by laws, regulations or executive orders where separate written agreements are not necessary.

Areas for Review and Acceptance Criteria State or local governments should obtain written agreements with the listed redical facilities (Planning Standard L. Evaluation Criteria 1 and 3) and trans-portation providers (Planning Standard L. Evaluation Criterion 4). The written agreements should contain simple assurances that the providers have adequate technical information (e.g. treatment protocols) and treatment capabilities for handling " contaminated injured" individuals.

An indication of Joint Comission on Accreditation of Hospitals (JCAH) accreditation will suffice for such assurance.

(Note:

Veterans Administration (VA), military and other government hospitals are not usually accredited by JCAH but usually have the desired capabilities.)

If state or local governments do not obtain written agreements, the licensee should obtain written agreements with the listed medical facilities and trans-portation providers.

If good faith efforts are not successful in a particular case, the licensee shall provide or arrange for adequate compensatory measures, e.g., obtain written agreements with other providers or provide temporary field i

medical care.

L.

Medical and Publit Health Supoort

_ Planning Standard Arrangements are made for medical services for contaminated injured individuals.

L.I. Evaluation Criterion Each organization shall arrange for local and backup hospital and medical services having the capability for evaluation of radiation exposure and uptake, including assurance that persons providing these services are adequately prepared to handle contaminated individuals.

i IN 86-98 December 2. 1986 Page 4 of 12 i

. Areas for Review and Acceptance Criteria There should be one primary local hospital and one backup hospital for each site for the evaluation and emergency treatment of " contamination injured" members of the general public. Nospitals are generally distributed proportional to the population. Thus, at sites with low population and few hospitals, the primary local and backup hospitals for members of the general public could be the same as those for the utility emoloyees and emergency workers.

)

L.3. Evaluation Criterion Each State shall develop lists indicating the location of public, private and military hospitals and other emergency medical services facilities within the State or contiguous States considered capable of providing medical support for any contaminated injured individual. The listing shall include the name, location, type of facility and capacity and any special radiological capabili-ties.

These emergency medical services should be able to radiologically monitor contaminated personnel, and have facilities and trained personnel able to care for contaminated injured persons.

Areas for Review and Acceptance Criteria The lists should be annotated to indicate the ambulatory /non-ambulatory capaci-ties for providing medical support for " contaminated injured" members of the general public and any special radiological capabilities. This will enable state and local officials to direct members of the general public to those institutions capable of handling contaminated injured" patients.

In the event that local and regional medical resources need to be supplemented, additional medical re-sources would be available through the Federal Radiological Emergency Response Plan.

These resources would include the Rediation Emergency Assistance Center /

Training Site at Oak Ridge Tennessee and the National Disaster Medical System with headquarters in Rockville, Maryland.

4 L.4. Evaluation Criterton Each organization shall arrange for transporting victims of radiological acci-dents to medical support facilities.

i Areas for Review and Acceptance Criteria Because the early symptoms of persons exposed to dangerous levels of radiation are usually limited to nausea and vomiting, ambulances may not be required to transport such persons to medical facilities. Rather, non-specialized public and private vehicles can be used, supported, if necessary, with agreements in accordance with A.3. above. For other types of contaminated injured individ-vals, specialized transportation resources (e.g., ambulances) would be necessary and should be assured by agreements, if necessary, in accordance with A.3. above.

(

Provisions should be made for the use of contamination control in transporting contaminated persons to medical facilities.

Radiological Emergency Response Training Radiological emergency response training is provided to those who may be called on to assist in an emergency.

0.4. Evaluation Criterion Each organization shall establish a training program for instructing and quali-fying personnel whc will implement radiological emergency response plans. The specialized initial training and periodic retraining programs (including the scope, nature and frequency) shall be provided in the following categories:

h.

Medical support personnel Areas for Review and Acceptance Criteria Each hospital listed under Evaluation Criteria L.1 and L.3. shall have at least one physician and one nurse on call within about 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> who can supervise the evaluation and treatment of radiologically " contaminated injured

  • members of the general public..There are several sources for this training including NRC licensee sponsored training. Transportation providers should have basic training in contamination control. Examples include but are not limited to:

1.

FEMA handbook, videotape, slides and instruction manual titled " Hospital Emergency Department Management of Radiation Accidents,' SM 80/1984 2.

Courses from The Radiation Emergency Assistance Center / Training Site (REAC/TS) at Oak Ridge Associated Universities.

3.

Audiocassette and text course, " Radiation Accident Preparedness:- Medical and Managerial Aspects" by Science-Thru-Media Inc., 303 Fifth Avenue, Suite 803, New York, NY 10016.

N.

Exercises and Drills Planning Standard Periodic exercises are (will be) conducted to evaluate major portions of emer.

gency response capabilities, periodic drills are (will be) conducted to develop and maintain key skills, and deficiencies identified as a result of exercises or drills are (will be) corrected.

9 o

In 86-98 December 2, 1986 Page 6 of 12 5-4 M.2. Evaluation Criterion 1

A drill is a supervised instruction period aimed at testing, developing and maintaining skills in a particular operation. A drill is often a component of an exercise. A drill shall be supervised and evaluated by a qualified drill instructor. Each organization shall conduct drills, in addition to the biennial annual

  • exercise at the frequencies indicated below:

c.

Medical emergency drills A medical emergency drill involving a simulated contaminated individual which contains provisions for participation by the local support services agencies.

(i.e., ambulance and offsite medical treatment facility) shall be conducted annually. The offsite portions of the medical drill may be performed as part of the required biennial annual

  • exercise.

Areas for Review and Acceptance Criteria State or local governments should provide for the conduct of appropriate drills and exercises which include " contaminated injured" individuals. These medical i

emergency drills involving the primary local (L.1.) hospital for state and local governments should be conducted annually.

These drills should also test the capability of relecation centers to direct " contaminated injured" members of the general public to the appropriate hospital.

If State or local governments cannot 1

provide for the conduct of the drills, the licensee shall. provide for the con-duct of such drills.

If good faith efforts are not successful in a particular I

case, the licensee shall provide or arrange for adequate compensatory measures.

l implementation State and local emergency response plans should reflect the provisions of this l

GM at the next annual update following 9 months from the effective date of this SM.

Plans for plants that do not have a full power operating license should reflect the provisions of this GM within 9 months of the effective date of this GM. The first medical drill reflecting the provisions of this GM should be conducted by the end of the next biennial exercise following 1 year from the effective date of this GM.
