'a should read carefully now.
Important Points to Remember reinforces some of the instructions and information provided prior to the two dress rehearsals.
Information/ Instructions For Players is a FEMA document which gives you vital information about what to expect at the exercise.
Copies of this document will also be handed to you at your LERO facility on the day of the exercise.
The most important things you should remember for the exercise are to conduct yourself in a professional manner at all times, do your job thoroughly (and visibly so that the Observers and Evaluators know what you did).
Remember, you don't have to have your procedures memorized.
Refer to your procedures whenever you need to, particularly if necessary in order to answer a question posed by an Evaluator or an Observer.
We feel very confident that LERO will perform better than ever on the 13th.
We have all put a lot of werk into it over the last couple of months.
February 13 will te the day it will pay off.
Thank you again for your continued support and enthusiasm.

l INFORMATION/ INSTRUCTIONS FOR PLAYERS All key players must read and follow the rules given below. This is impcrtant to the success of this exercise.
The Shoreham exercise is designed to evaluate the'LERO plan. LERO has designated controllers and a control organization. FEMA Region II has designated a controller / simulator organization.
The controllers will input messages at certain times and the simulators will represent State and local government representatives. The purpose of the simulators play is,to determine whether LERO can accommodate State and local government personnel with regard to information and coordination.
1.
All Non-Players involved with the exercise will wear specially colored arm bands.
There are 4 colors of arm be,nds, as follows:
GREEN - CONTROLLERS BLUE
- EVALUATCRS MAR 0ON - OBSERVERS RED
- VISITORS REMD18ER: Only Controllers (Green) can give Players data or instructions.
As soon as you respond to your emergency location, note who the Controllers are in your area.
2.
Evaluators (Blue) and Observers (Maroon). are allowed to ask you questions.
Answer their questions.
It is acceptable, when conditions dictate, for you to ask the Evaluator and/or Observer to wait until you complete an urgent task before you answer the question.
3.
Play out all actions as much as possible in accordance with your emergency procedures, as if it were a real emergency.
Unless authorized by the Controller, you should not simulate your actions.
If authorized to simulate an action, tell the Controller and Evaluators how and when you would actually do them. For your benefit, it is reconnended that you play out your actions as much. as possible.
It is to your advantage to exercise as many of your actions as possible.
4 Periodically speak out loud, identifying your key actions and decisions to the Controller, Evaluators and Observers.
This may seem artificial, but it will assist in the evaluation process and is to your benefit.

If you are in doubt, ask your Controller for clarification.
The Controller will not prompt or coach you.

If the Controller intervenes witn your play, it is for a good reason. Obey your Controller's direction at all times.
This is essential to the overall success of the exercise.

You must not accept any messages / instructions from Evaluat..s or Observers.
They are allowed to ask questions..If they want to initiate actions, test j
your abi1{ ties, or give you " surprises," they must work througn your Controller. This is essential to the overall success of the exercise.

.The Controllers, Evaluators and Observers are not subject (they are exempt) from acting as if radiation levels from the emergency exercise are present.
Do not let them confuse you or cause you to act unwisely.
- 10. Demonstrate knowledge of your emergency operations and procedures.

l question is misdirected to you or you do not know the answer, refer them to your LERO Supervisor or the Controller.
i
- 13. Keep a list of items you feel will improve your plan and procedures.
Provide l
this to your Evaluator or Observer. Remember, one of the main purposes of tne l
exercise is for you, the Player, to assure yourself that you are adequately prepared. Areas for improvement, or lessons learned when identified, will improve your overall emergency planning and preparedness.
