3.
Transportation of Accident Victim a.
Ambulance Service The Burke County Ambulance Service has agreed to transport accident victims to the primary and secondary medical f acility.
Plant Vogtle Ambulance Service, University Ambulance Service (Augusta) and Riclinond Ambulance Service (Augusta) my be called if additional ambulances are needed.
Burke County Ambulance Service 404/554-6666 Plant Vogtle Ambulance Service.
404/554-4437x 7300 University Ambulance Service 404 /722-2243 Rictinond Ambulance Service 404/863-9800 b.

room personnel will be provided by the Department of Haan Resources.
5.
Radioprotective Omgs In the event of tan accident which involves a sudden envimrvnental release of large quantities of radionuclides, which might include a j
number of the isotopes of radiciodine, it is considered appmpriate l
l that authorities be prepared to take effective measures to prevent or i
I curtail martedly the acctsnulation of radiciodines by the thymid gland of offsite radiation emergency workers.
Since evacuation or sheltering is considered a more effective measure for the general public, no dependence has been placed on distribution L
of radioprotective drugs to the general public, a.
Decision Process for Distribution of Radioprotective Drug If the release data received f rtxn the f acility indicates a potential for hazardous exposures to the thyroid, a recommendation j
s to administer a radiopmtective drug to all emergency workers entering the affected areas my be given.
1his recomendation l
i State of Georgia REP - Annex 0 J

af ter consultation and approval f rom the State Health Officer or i
his designated physician representative. GEPR, acting in behalf of the Governor, will assure that this directive is communicated to all state and local agencies involved.
b.
Distribution of Radioprotective Drug In the event of an incident ati a fixed nuclear f acility which warrants offsite monitoring or other emergency duties, all state emergency workers, prior to entering the area of possible exposure, would report to the FE0C in Burke (bunty for receipt of the radioprotective drug.
6.
Medical Consultants Arrangenents have been made for obtaining medical consultative advice during radiological emergencies. The physicians listed in Table F-3 have agreed to provide assistance to the state during a radiological eme rgency.
7.
Health System Resources in Contiguous States and Military Facilities a.
Contiguous States Out-of-state medical f acilitles and health systen resourtes would not be sought or utilized unless all Georgia resourtes were depleted or a particular resource did not exist in Georgia, but existed out-of-state.
In the event out-of-state health system and medical f acility resources were needed, the Oak Ridge Associated Universities Medical Division, Oak Ridge Hospital of the Methodist Church in Oak Ridge, Tennessee would be contacted first (see i
p roc edu re i n Pa rag rap h F.1. c. a bo ve). Hospital f acilities with some capabilities exist in the major cities of neighboring states (e.g., Birmingham, Alabama; Colunbia, South Carolina; Charleston, South Carolina; Charlotte, North Carolina). Request f rom supporting states would be made in accordance with the Southern 1
Mutual Radiation Assistance Pact (SPRAP); however, initial contact and technical discussions of health and safety needs would be discussed with the appitpriate State Radiological Walth Director prior to initiating a request for assistance under SMRAP. A directory containing the names and phone numbers of adjacent State j
Radiological Health Directors is provided:

5.
Decontamination should start, if medical status pemits, with cleansing and sembbing the ama of highest contamination first.
If only an extremity is involved, the clothing may serve as an effective barrier and only the affected limb may need to be scrubbed and cleansed.
If the body as a whole is involved or if the clothing is generally pemeated by contaminated materials, showering and sembbing will be necessary.
Give special attentien to hair parts, body orifices and body folds.
Remeasure with a survey instrment and record measurement after each washing or showering.
If a wound is involved, irrigate with sterile water, catching the irrigating fluid in a basin or can, mark and handle as described in #4 above.
Decontaminate the skin around the wound being careful not to mcontaminate the wound.
Continue irrigating the wound.
Each step in the decontaination should be preceded and followed by radiation monitoring and recording of location and extent of contamination.
6.
Save the physicians', nurses' and attendants' scrub and protective clothing as described above for patients.
Physicians, nurses and attendants must follow the same monitoring and decontamination mutine as the patients.
7.
The physician in attendance in the emergency room, if confmnted with a grossly contaminated wound with dirt particles and cmshed tissue, should be prepared to do a preliminary simple wet debridement.
Further measurements may necessitate sophisticated wound counting detection instmments supplied by a radiation consultant who will assist in detemining if further definitive debridement is necessary.
The Radiological Health Unit will provide the names of consultants.
8.
If internal contamination is suspected after external decontamination, request a whole-body count as soon as the patient's condition pemits.

{
Oak Ridge, Tenriessee 37830 October 22, 1981 I
Mr.
E.' Lee Bacot, Coordinator Office of Emergency Preparedness South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control 2600 Bull Street ColumDia, S.
C.' 29201
Dear Mr. Bacot:
RADIATION EMERGENCY ASSISTANCE CENTER TRAINING SITE (REACTS)
In response to your request of September 28,
- 1981, we are pleased to inform you that the DOE REACTS facility-and team are available to provide backup support and assistance to the State of South Carolina in the event - of a radiological accident or emergency occurring at any of South Carolina's Nuclear facilities.
The REACTS facility is operated by the Oak Ridge Associated Unversities (ORAU) for the U.S.
Department of Energy (00E).
Dr.
Karl F.
Hubner is the director of REACTS.
The REACTS facility and team are part of a
continuing 00E
- program, however, the continued availability of REACTS assistance is
-dependent on continuing federal appropriations.
The REACTS provides very modern facilities for handling radiation accident patients.
It is designed to cope with any type of radiation exposure accident which might occur in the Oak Ridge area.
The REACTS staff, in conjunction with the Oak Ridge Hospital of the United Methodist Church Disaster Team and
- staff, is prepared to treat radiation victims quickly and competently and to provide advice and assistance when radiation accidents occur outside the Oak Ridge area.
Following initial emergency treatment in % EACTS, the patient (s) can be transferred to local hospitals in accordance with usual admission procedures for conventional medical and surgical
- followup, if necessary.
Since radiation accidents are infrequent, the REACTS staff is involved on a daily basis in training programs and radiation exposure studies utilizing the facility to assure its constant readiness.
January 1986 C-14
-t REACTS is also a source of information on the epidemiological aspects of human exposure to radiation.
A computerized data cank of human radiation ' effects
.from accident and medical exposurss has been established and serves as a
basis for epidemiological studies as well as providing timely data to those involved in handling radiation accidents.
)
No fee or retainer is required for the provision of backup services by REACTS.
However, should you desire to utilize the
{
i
. serv ces of REACTS, we would expect to recover those costs which could reasonably be related to handling such an incident
{
including all charges billed to DOE or ORAU by hospitals and physicians.
You are free to inform the' Nuclear Regulatory Commission that REACTS is available as a
backup support capability to your ongoing program.
We do ask that'you inform all-members ~
your staff with the mechanisms and of appropriateness of-seeking REACTS assistance.
This can best be facilitated by direct contact with the REACTS Director, Dr.
Karl, F.
Hubner, Oak Ridge Associated University, Post Office Box
- 117, Oak. Ridge, Tennessee,
- 37830, or telephone (615) 576-3099.
We trust this information is adequate for your needs.
Sincerely,
