A Assi nt of Res nsibilit (Or anizational Control)During the exercise the transition from local control to State control was not clearly defined.Leadership at local and State EOC's hampered by frequent involvement in telephone conference line network.Counties involved did not have school system represented in response organization.

Agreements should be negotiated which establish separate and mutual responsibilities of licensee.and local governments regarding response operati ons.B.C.On-Site Emer enc Or animation Applicable only to licensee.Emer en Res nse Su ozt and Resources Assistance available through the Florida Power Corporation contract with the University of Florida is not identified.

Also, it is not clear whether the university will work for the utility or the State during response.Facilities have not been completely identifed and agreements are not included in plans.D.Emer enc Classification S stem There are no clear cut provisions for the licensee to provide protective action recommendations to local officials.

Notification Methods.and Procedures Official evaluation of the prompt notification system has not been accompli shed.Emer enc Communications Alert'ng and notification of response personnel should be addressed more thoroughly.

Means for 24-hour notice and particular inzormation related to incident categories should be included in county plans.

During the exercise it vas evident that point to point communications between the State and other facilities need to be improved.Installation of the planned ring down circuit would alleviate communications problems.G.Public Education and Information There is no evidence that an annual public information dissemination program exists.Information materials and the means for distribution're not included in plans.Physical accommodations at the No procedures vere established respond spontaneously to media time-consuming.

Rumor control affected areas.FEOC were inadequate for media visitors.to permit PIO and/or EOC director to queries;clearance procedures vere centers were not established in H.Emer enc Facilities and E i ment County plans do not establish a central point for receipt.and analysis~of fieLd monitoring data.Plans do not identify or describe emergency ki ts.The plan does not make clear at vhich installation (SEOC,,EOF, or f'ield operations center)the command/control process will take place.1'ccident Assessment Plans indicate a lack of capability to monitor radioactivity in stipulated ranges".Zf DOE is to provide this capability, a vritten agreement with DOE is appropriate.

Protecti.ve Resvonse There aze no provisions for the licensee to forward protective action recommendations to State response organizations.

The plan policy statement should be revised to indicate that KZ is no longer a prescriptive drug.The State Health Officer is not included in the decision-making process relative to the use of radio-protective drugs.County plans should reference the State plan relative to protective action guides.During the exercise it vas observed that county protective actions for special populations were not addressed.

Zt vas observed during the exercise that the procedures foz administration and distribution of KZ vere not clear at the FEOC.K.Radiolo ical Exposure Control It vas observed that exposure control measures for emergency workers vere inadequate at State and County facilities.

Plan does not address the disposition of contaminated injured persons.

Z.Medical and Public Health Su rt, setters of agreement concerned with transportation of injured do not contain language which assures that transportation will be made avai labl e.H.Recove and Reent Plannin and Post-Accident 0 erati ons Decision-making process for reentry and.recovery is not made clear in'lans.Premature termination of exercise precluded the observation of recovery and reentry operations.

N.Exercise and Drills The February exercise was well conducted and observed, and identified the need for additional training in most areas of emergency response at both State and local levels.O.Radiolo ical Emez en Res nse Trainin Training for medical support personnel not under contract to the licensee is not specifically provided for in the plans.Exercise demonstrated that additional training is needed in the area of decontamination, dosimetry and exposure control methodology.

P.Res nsibili t for the Plannin Effort No significant deficiencies noted.IZZ SCHEDULZ OF CORRECTZ'ONS Florida indicates the plan improvements and corrections will be submitted to FEEL in October l982.

~TALLAHr'SEE, FLO!<[DA 32301 (Vent)488 6Ã1 ATTACHl1ENT I RESPONSE TO CRITIQUE DEFI CIENCIES~E0 d F d d d d Point to point communications between the state EOC and other facilities will be improved through the ourchase and installation of the hot ring down system, single sideband radio network, and a hard copy system with the capability to transmit technical data to all emergency facilities.

Tne hot ring down sys.em is a dedicated phone line networ k linking the stato FOC, FEOC's, FOF's, power plant control rooms, risk counties, and DHRS Radiological Heal.th Services.System specifications have been deve',-oped and approved by the Florida Division o.Communica-tions.Southern Bell reports that activities have begun to install the hot ring down system, and i.is expected to be fully operational by the end of (1ay 19S2.The single sideband radio network will serve as a back-up to the hot ring'down system and wi 11'connect the same points.System specifications have been developed and approved by the Florida Division of Communications.

Application for licenses have been developed and submitted to the FCC for their consideration.

It is anticipated that the earliest date for license approval will be July or August 1982.To facilitate point to point communications of technical data (i.e., olant parameters, dose assessments, dose projections), a working committee made up of si:ate, risk county, and, utility representatives has been formed to consider the requisite capabilities of a high-speed hard copy transmission system.The working committee is currently considering proposals to assess hard copy transmission needs and to develop specifications for this syst m.In addition to hard copy needs, the working committee is also examining communications needs, emergency news center (ENC)operation, and emergency facility locations.

lilith regard to emergency facility locations, th committee is examining possible locations for center that r(ill be outside the State EOC.The is also examining possible alternate locations for field emergency operations centers (FEOC's)C.ystal River and St.Lucie plants.One option side".~tion is a wobile FEOC that could be trans berthing stations near each plant.e working he media committee and options for the under con-ported to E-12 Flor ida Power and Light Company (FPL)has agreed to fund a feasibility study for the planning, location, and design of a new EOC for St.Lucie County.Further funding for the construction of a new EOC will be contingent upon the resu'its of this and other facility studies.BDP staff will work with Dade and St.Lucie counties to assure that adequate visual aids for displaying evacuation routes, relocation centers, and population by s ctors are available.

Funding for the communications improvements required at the t1onroe County EOC will be provided as a result of negotiations with FPL, which are tentatively scheduled for October.The worxing committee will examine working space problems at the Monroe County EOC and make appropriate recommendations for improvements.

The working space problems identified at the Citrus County EOC should be resolved upon the identification of a suitable location for the F OC by the working committee.

The Levy Coun y Commission has agreed to make space available to relocate their EOC, thus improving EOC working space and conditions.

BDP staff have scheduled the development of training standards, revision of SOP's, and training'essions prior to the next exercise.These activities should improve FOC internal communications and information flow, record keeping, and overall operation.

Alerting and Notification of Officials and Staff Funding has been provided by FPL to<1artin County for tr"ining local emer'gency response personnel and public officials.

This training should assure that l1artin County demonstrates a 2<'-hour, capability to manage and respond to a radiological emergency.

Eeerrcnc 0 erations Mana~ament BDP staff is currently invol plan to more clearly define an emergency.

The revision scheduled for completion in The installation of the hot ate facility managers'nvol fer ence line network.BDP s ion of EOC alert, notificati SOP's for tiartin and St.Luc school system in the respons internal communications and ved in the revision of the direction and control dur ing to this section of the plan is Nay.ring down system wi1 1 el im'.n-vement in the telephone con-taff has scheduled the revis-on, staffing, and operations ie counti s to include the 2 network and to improve information flow.The wor king committee will also examine the function and operation of the emergency news center (EHC}to assure tnat timely and accurate information is disseminated.

The committee is also examining additional technical (DHRS)E-13 staff requirements at.the EOF.The additional technical staff will improve coordination between OHRS and the Governor's Authorized Representative (GAR).SOP's for the activation, staffing, and operation of.the EOF are sched-uled for revision to assure improved coordination and management of EOF activities.

Public Alertin and Notification The instal 1 ation of the hot ring down system wi ll assure tnat important information (i.e., changes in plant status/parameters) will be received by all points on the system simultaneously, and should minimize delays in announcing important imformation.

BOP staff is in the process of revising the notification annexes of the state and site plans.These revisions will result in standardized notification forms and procedures (where possible).

Additional cross-training will be sched-uled in Levy County to assure that adequate resources are avail.able foe effective dissemination of notification information.

Public and b1edia Relations The working committee and BOP staff have scheduled the revision of the EllC concept to identify specific respon-sibilities of state, local, and utility Public Information Officers (P IO's);establish procedures for the accurate and timely dissemination of information; and assure effec-tive management of public information.

In addition, all SOP's For P IO's have been scheduled for revision prior to the next exercise.The working committee is also examining the issue of relo-cating the FEOC for the St.Lucie plant.A suitable relo-cation of the FEOC would include adequate physical accom-modations for media visitors.BOP staff is in the process of revising information brochures and posters for distribution to Citrus and Levy counties.These posters and brochu~es will advise resi-dents as well as transients of actions to take in the event of a radiological emergency.

BOP staff will propose radiological emergency procedures or inclusion in the Crystal River area phone book.BOP staff wi 11 work with Citrus and Levy counties to develop overlays identifying geographic areas that closely correspond to each popula-tion sector.A slide/tape presentation is being developed for public and media education.

Florida Power Corporation (F'PC)has scheduled the construction of a new EOF, which will include adequate physical accommodations for the media.This new facility is to be contructed by October 1982 and fully equipped by March 1983.Accident Assessment OHRS staff is in the process of examining their com-munications needs to assure that the NERL and f ield moni-toring teams are adequately equipped to transmit and r eceive accurate and timely data, and to allow the liERL to effectively monitor communications with field monitoring teams.OHRS is also examining the issue of requisite staffing for the HERL to assur more effective deployment and management of field monitoring teams.The SOP's per-taining to the operation of the MERI will then be revised to address these issues, as well as HERL security, decon-tamination of returning field monitoring teams, periodic briefings of field monitoring teams, policy(ies) for withdrawal from contaminated areas, and standardized checklists for logging data transmissions.

Additional funds for needed communications equipment foi the tlERL and field monitoring teams and updated maps will be negotiated

'as an addendum to existing contracts or as line items in the new contracts under the provisions of HB 1066.This 1 gislation amended Chapter 252, Florida Statutes, to establish respective roles in the develop-ment, test'ing, implementation, and funding of radiological emergency plans and preparedness.

DHRS will also negotiate additional health physicist positions to assure an ade-quate response capability.

Inst'allation oF tne hot ring down system and the hard copy system for the transmission of technical data will assure that radiological safety of Ficers in the FEOC's have the capability to receive and transmit data regarding plant status and parameters, and off iste dose assessments and projections.

FPC has scheduled the contruction of a 26,0GO squar feet EOF near the airport, approximately 10.I miles from the plant site.Construction is scheduled for completion in October, and the facility should be fully equipped by'larch 1983.FPC staff has expressed a desire to meet with BOP/DHRS staff regarding the floor plan and layout to assure the co-location and coor dination (i.e., standard forms)of state and utility dose projection personnel.

Actions to Protect the Public Train.ing standards are being scheduled for development for shelter manag"ment staff.HOP staff will work with county directors to develop a training curriculum to assure that shelter managers and staff are adequately trained to open and operate reception centers and shelters.SOP's for the activation and operation of reception centers and shelters will be revised or developed as needed.These activities should correct those shelter deficiencies identified in Citrus, Levy and Indian River counties.In addition, the working committee i s examining the ade-quacy of existing emergency facilities.

For those recep-tion centers and shelters that cannot be modified to cor-rect those identified deficincies, new locations for these f ac i 1 i t i es wi 1 1 be r ecommended and equi pped.BDP staff is currently in the process of applying for user numbers to access OHRS and Florida State University com-puters to collect and analyze census data.Of primary interest is updated population figures for schools, hospi-tals, nursing homes, and other special facilities in areas surrounding nuclear power plants.Accurate population data are prerequisites for the development of valid pro-tective actions for special needs populations.

FPL and FPC have provided funds io host counties for the purch'ase of disposable clothing/gowns for contaminated evacuees.Any equipment neces,sary for vehicle decon-tamination, disposal of contaminated clothing, or the effi-cient operation of reception centers and shelters that is not currently available will be negotiated with the utili-ties as an addendum to existing funding contracts or as line items in the new contrcts under.the provisions of HB 1066.BOP staff has scheduled the develoment and adminis-tration of a needs assessment instrument to determine additional unding and resource needs of state and local agencies.Health Hedical and Exposure.Control Measures DIIRS is in the process of develop ing an SOP fo: the pre-positioning of potassium iodide (KI), based on population densities surrounding each power plant, to provide guidance to th counties on storage and distribution of KI.DHRS has also revised the policy for the authoriza-tion to distribute and use KI.This policy wil 1 be included in the revised radiological emergency plan, and will request that each risk county health unit develop detailed plans for the issuance of KI.BOP staff has scheduled the developm dards for radiological.instrumentati control.Once these have been devel wi 11 be scheduled to improv record tion procedures, and overall exposur for emergency personnel.

The Florid Commission has provided funding for ent of training stan-on and exposure oped, training sessions keeping, decontamina-e control procedures a Public Service the BOP to contract

/with the University of Florida Department of Environmental Engineering for the provision and maintenance of ther-moluminescent dosimeters (TLD')for emergency workers.Under the pr ovisions of this contract (which is currently bein'g reviewed by Department legal staff)the University would al so maintain per emanent dose records for emergency workers.I.n addition, all SOP's regarding decontamination of emergency vehicles, radiological safety officers'esponsibilities, field monitoring, decontamination of evacuees, radiological injuries, and radiological exposure control have been scheduled for revision.Recover and Reentr Operation No response required.Pelevance of the Exercise Ex erience No response required.E-17
