| |
| J. Fixed Nuclear Facility Incident (" incident") - An incident 1s an event or condition at a fixed nuclear facility which could result in some impact on public health and safety. Four incident classes have been identified. From the least serious to the most serious they are:
| |
| : 1. Unusual Event - Events are in process or have occurred which indicate a potential degradation of the level of safety of the plant. No releases of radioactive material requiring offsite response or monitoring are expected unless further O 2.
| |
| degradation of safety systems occurs.
| |
| Alert - Events are in process or have occurred which involve an actual or potential substantial degradation of the level of safety of the plant. Any releases are expected to be limited to small fractions of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Protective Action Guideline exposure levels.
| |
| : 3. Site Emergency * - Events which involve actual or likely major failures of plant functions needed for protection of the public are in process or have occurred. Any releases are not expected to exceed EPA Protective Action Guideline exposure levels except near site boundary.
| |
| 4 General Emergency * - Events are in process or have occurred which involve actual or imminent substantial core degradation or melting with potential for loss of containment integrity.
| |
| Releases can be reasonably expected to exceed EPA Protective Action Guideline exposure levels offsite.
| |

PURPOSE The overall purpose of this Radiological Emergency Response Plan is to establish policies and procedures for emergency preparedness and response to incidents at the fixed nuclear facility at the Limerick Generating Station. In establishing such policies and procedures the following have been addressed:
| |
| A. Defining those areas of Chester County that are within the Lime-rick plume exposure pathway EPZ.
| |
| B. Identifying authority and assignment of responsibilities for planning, exercises and drills, and response.
| |
| C. Identifying the relationship between Chester County and the Limerick Generating Station, Federal and State agencies, and municipalities, and the development of lines of communication among them.
| |
| D. Developing a coordinated system for alerting and informing the general public.
| |
| E. Coordinating response plans with other risk and support counties and the Commonwealth.

| |
| F. Identifying support resources within Chester County.
| |
| G. Identifying unmet needs of Chester County and the risk municipal-ities of Chester County, and notifying PEMA of unmet needs.
| |
| V. ASSUMPTIONS A. The existence of the Limerick Generating Station provides the potential for danger to the citizens of that portion of Chester County located within the plume exposure pathway EPZ.
| |
| B. Protective actions to be taken by residents of the plume exposure pathway EPZ could include sheltering or evacuation.
| |
| C. The amount of lead time available will affect the protective actions recommended.
| |
| D. In event of an incident at the Limerick Generating Station, many of the residents of the plume exposure pathway EPZ will choose to evacuate spontaneously without official order or recommendation.
| |
| * E. In the event of an evacuation, either spontaneous or ordered, many residents will leave the plume exposure pathway EPZ by way of routes not designated as main evacuation routes.
| |
| F. In event of an evacuation, at least 50% of the population at risk O will relocate independently to private homes or hotel / motel facilities. For planning purposes, mass care resources will be identified for 50% of the risk population.
| |
| G. In event of an evacuation, the primary means of transportation for the general public will be personal automobiles, averaging three persons per vehicle. Primary means of transportation for school children when school is in session will be school buses.
| |
| H. Chester County's essential unmet needs will be met by State resources. Where possible, these needs will be identified in advance and appropriate responses planned.
| |
| VI. RESPONSIBILITIES A.

| VII. SITUATION The Limerick Generating Station is a fixed nuclear generating facility operated by the Philadelphia Electric Company in Limerick Township, Montgomery County. An incident at the Limerick Generating Station could result in a radiological release affecting the area surrounding the facility.
| |
| Portions of Chester County are included within the Plume Exposure Pathway EPZ of the Limerick Generating Station. An incident at Limer-ick may require some type of protective response. Protective responses may include sheltering, evacuation, the administration of thyroid blocking drugs to en'ergency workers, or some combination thereof.
| |
| Protective measures may also be required for the protection of agri-cultural, food and dairy products within the ingestion exposure pathway EPZ.
| |
| Elected officials at each level of government are charged in the Pennsylvania Emergency Management Services Act (P.L. 1332) with the responsibility of protecting the health, safety and well-being of persons within their jurisdictions.

| |
| VIII. CONCEPT OF OPERATIONS A. Governing Principle
| |
| : 1. The governing principle of this plan is that the persons and governments within the Plume Exposure Pathway EPZ of the Limerick Generating Station will undertake protective responses in the event of a nuclear incident. Depending upon the seriousness of the incident, such responses could include sheltering or evacuation. In event of evacuation, a system of reception and mass care centers will be established.
| |
| An assumption of this plan is that 50% of the population to be evacuated will relocate to private homes and hotels / motels.
| |
| Thus, the requirement for mass care will be designation of mass care facilities for 50% of the Chester County EPZ popu-lation, or approximately 28,245 persons.
| |
| : 2. In a worst case situation at Limerick, the facility may declare a General Emergency, including a recomendation for specific protective actions, bypassing lesser classifica-tions. Upon receiving notification from the facility, PEMA, or the Parent County of this status and recommendation, the county may exercise its authority to recommend sheltering or other protective action.
| |
| O 20
| |
| ~ e , ,- a
| |
| | |
| B. Notification Notification and alerting procedures concerning incidents at the Limerick Generating Station are detailed in Annex C. In the event of a confirmed recommendation for immediate Protective Action from the utility, PEMA, or the parent county, the Chester County DES Director or his designate may initiate immediate activation of the EBS and Public Alert systems for the purposes of notification of the public of a county Protective Action recommendation.
| |
| C. Emergency Response Actions In the event of an incident at the Limerick Generating Station, Chester County will base its response actions on the specific incident classifications, as outlined in Appendix 5 and in VIII.

| ! DIRECTION AND CONTROL ,
| |
| I. PURPOSE {
| |
| To identify the means for decision-making and coordination of Chester County's response to an incident at the Limerick Generating Station.
| |
| II. RESPONSIBILITY i
| |
| A. The Chester County Commissioners have the responsibility for the safety and protection of-the public within Chester County. The Chester County Director of Emergency Services reports to the
| |
| ; County Commissioners, as do all county departments and agencies.
| |
| B. The Chester County Director of Emergency Services is administra-a tively responsible for the operations of the Chester County Communications Center, which provides'24 hour central dispatch and communications for fire, police and emergency medical services in the County. In the cases where the county communications center 4
| |
| does not dispatch specific services, telecommunication capability
| |
| . exists with those services, i
| |
| C. Overall direction' and control of emergency operations will be coordinated from the Chester County Emergency Operations Center
| |
| ! (EOC) located in the Hazlett Building, 14 E. Biddle St., West.
| |
| ! Chester, PA. The Center is organized, equipped and staffed, when l augmented by mobilized emergency personnel, to maintain 24-hour
| |
| ; operations. The Director of the'Chester County Department of Emergency Services is responsible for ensuring that the EOC is at
| |
| - all times capable of being operated on a protracted 24-hour basis.
| |
| D. The Hazlett Building is also the location'of the Comunications
| |
| , Center, which is responsible for staffing DES administrative
| |
| ! telephones and the dedicated. telephone line from the Limerick Generating Station as well as all county telecommunications
| |
| ; networks and emergency telephones. Maintenance and operation of the automatic computer assisted telephone notification system (RECALL), and of the public alert siren system, is also a respon-sibility of the Communications. Center pursuant to applicable
| |
| ! procedures and direction. Upon EOC activation, the Comunications Center functions as part of the EOC Comunications Group.

| |
| O l III. CONCEPT OF OPERATION j A. Notification of an incident at the Limerick Generating Station will be received from PEMA and/or PECO and/or Montgomery County, depending on incident circumstances, and recorded as outlined ,
| |
| l by the Communications Center in Annexes B and C.
| |
| B. The Communications Center will notify the DES Duty Officer, who is a DES staff member assigned and available on a 24-hour basis, as well as the DES Director.
| |
| C. The Communications Center will initiate notification of key operations personnel and EOC staff upon direction and by incident level specific procedures using the RECALL system and radio links.
| |
| In the event of system failure, radio alerting and manual telephone based on lists updated quarterly will be utilized.
| |
| D. The EOC will be activated selectively or completely depending on the incident level. As EOC Group Chiefs and Officers activate, the Comunication Center will provide updated printouts / summaries, and formal coordination will evolve to specific EOC staff in the E0C.
| |
| E. All EOC staff groups and officers will function according to
| |
| ; formal in;plementing Procedures developed in support of this plan.
| |
| O F. County government technical, administrative, and resource support Q will be provided by DES staff and Commissioners staff.
| |
| G. The Commissioners Staff personnel listed in Appendix 1 may not be present in the E0C on a regular basis, but are available to pro-vide assistance and advice as necessary to DES /EOC staff. The Commissioners' staff group includes the Director of Finance and Administration, the Chief Clerk, the Executive Assistant to the Board of Commissioners, the Manager of Finance, the Personnel Manager, the Purchasing Agent and their respective staffs.
| |
| H. The response to any disaster, whether a major flood or an incident at a Nuclear Power Plant, has certain common elements. One of the most important elements is the need for resources to facilitate proper response. These resources may be additional personnel, consumables, services or guidance. In addition, there may be a need to purchase materials or equipment or obtain these on loan.
| |
| If the Commissioners declare a Disaster Emergency for the County the provisions of the Emergency Management Services Act allow the use of procedures which are outside normal channels. For example, purchases which normally require bids do not have to be bid in an emergency.

| i ANNEX C ALERT / NOTIFICATION I. PURPOSE To establish procedures, identify tasks and designate responsibilities for alerting emergency management personnel at county and municipal levels, alert schools and special facilities, and establish a system for the provision of alert and notification to the population residing within the Chester County portion of the Limerick plume exposure pathway EPZ.
| |
| II. RESPONSIBILITIES A. The Director of the Chester County Department of Emergency Services has the overall responsibility for the alert and notification of emergency personnel, school districts, special 1 facilities, transient areas and the general public within the plume exposure pathway EPZ. The Director of the Chester County Department of Emergency Services in consultation with Pennsylvania Emergency Management Agency is responsible for the activation of the public alert and emergency broadcast systems. Municipal emergency management directors are responsible for verifying that route alerting, as a supplementary alert procedure, is conducted 1 where necessary.
| |
| B. The Comunications and Fire / Rescue Groups in the County E0C will coordinate alert and notification activity and implement specific alerting / notification activity as directed.
| |
| C. The Philadelphia Electric Company is responsible for installing and maintaining a public alert siren system throughout the plume exposure pathway EPZ.
| |
| III. PUBLIC ALERT / NOTIFICATION SYSTEM The primary Chester County public alert system for the Limerick Generating Station consists of 67 radio-controlled sirens situated throughout the Chester County portion of the plume exposure pathway emergency planning zone. These sirens, which are controlled by the County Department of Emergency Services, are the signal for the public to tune to the local Emergency Broadcast System station (WCAU, 1210 AM or WC0J, 1420 AM) for information. The siren system is an attention-getting signal. It is g an evacuation alarm.
| |
| The public alert system will be activated whenever there is a need to inform the public of any significant change of plant status or when the public must be informed of a protective action. Any activation of the system will be coordinated with the Pennsylvania Emergency Management Agency (PEMA). Sirens will be activated when one or more of the following conditions apply:
| |
| O C-1 i
| |
| | |
| 1 I
| |
| : 1. The release of significant information will reassure the public of their safety.
| |
| : 2. The public is to be informed of a plant status that may lead them to implement specific actions on their own, a
| |
| : 3. Specific actions, to include protective actions, are to be taken.
| |
| 4 The control point for this system is located in the Chester County communications center which is staffed and operational on a 24-hour basis each day of the year. Activation information is passed from the
| |
| ! county control point to a base station radio via computerconditioned telephone lines. The base station is located centrally within the EPZ.-
| |
| { (Back-up base station is also available.) Siren activation, siren
| |
| ' failure, power failure, etc., is reported for display on the county 1 computer screen, printer and magnetic disk log.
| |
| j In the event of any system failures, the siren site relays a message to the central control point of the specific county. The failure will be i displayed on the video terminal and printed in hard copy by the printer.
| |
| Chester County will then ensure the dispatch of appropriate route-
| |
| ! alerting teams.
| |
| ) Route alerting has been developed as a supplement to the public alert
| |
| ! system and is implemented as necessary in the event of public alert system failure, to alert persons who may not be within the sound of the l
| |
| alert system, and to alert hearing impaired individuals. Route alerting i
| |
| is to be accomplished by alert teams travelling designated routes announcing that there is an emergency at the Limerick Generating Station i and that individuals should tune to their EBS stations. Details of the '
| |
| j route alerting system, assignments and routes can be found in Appendix C-6 and Annex E of this plan.
| |
| l IV. MESSAGE VERIFICATION A. Verification of incident notifications will be made by the Chester County Communications Center via telephone to the source of the notification.
| |
| i l B. When incident notificatioris'are received by communications center l
| |
| personnel, they will acknowledge receipt of message and officially
| |
| ! log the information on the Incident Notification Form (Appendix C-3). Telephone messages will include the name and identification of the individual calling and a telephone number to which a return telephone call can be made for verification.
| |
| i C. This information will be insnediately furnished to appropriate officials and agencies as provided for in Appendix C-2.
| |
| f D. All other emergency personnel should verify notifications / messages i
| |
| in accordance with appropriate agency procedures.

| O APPENDIX C-1 PUBLIC ALERT SYSTEM I. Public Alert System The Public Alert System of the Limerick Generating Station consists of 166 high output electro-mechanical sirens strategically situated throughout the approximate ten-mile emergency planning zone. These sirens, which are remotely controlled by the County Emergency Manage-ment Agencies, are the audible signal for the public to tune to the local Emergency Broadcast system station for information. The siren system is an Ettention-getting signal. It is not an evacuation alarm.
| |
| The Public Alert System will be activatad whenever there is a need to inform the public of any significant change of plant status or when the public must be informed of any emergency situation. Any activation of the system will be coordinated by the Pennsylvania Emergency Management Agency (PEMA).
| |
| Since the Plume Exposure Pathway Emergency Planning Zone includes three counties (Berks, Chester and Montgomery), the Public Alert System is
| |
| .' divided into three distinct zones.' These zones correspond to the three county areas of the EPZ.
| |
| ( The Public Alert System consists of the 166 individual sirens (Federal
| |
| \ Thunderbolt Model 1000) distributed throughout the EPZ within three zones attributed to county jurisdiction. Within each zone each siren site is a separate and distinct address. Therefore, it is possible to activate one or all'of the sirens in a county. To activate all 166 sirens within the EPZ, the three counties will coordinate activation.
| |
| This three segment coordination is a requirement of the Pennsylvania Emergency Management Agency.
| |
| The selectivity cf sites is obtained by the use of an interactive (two-way) digitally coded status and control unit for each siren. This type of control unit uses a 32-piece or " bit" word to command a response.
| |
| Each of the three counties have a Central Station which sends the digital command word or words to the siren sites of that county. The siren site (s) receives the digital signal, verifies the data and then reacts accordingly. Additionally, upon receipt of the command or when
| |
| " interrogated" by the central control station, the site responds with status data to indicate an acknowledgement of the command, report siren activation or malfunction and any power failure.
| |
| Siren Signals Each siren is equipped to provide the capability of sounding the steady three to five minute " Alert" signal (this will be the tone used for the Limerick Public Alert) and the rising / falling wail or " Attack" signal.
| |
| I C-1-1
| |
| | |
| O The attack signal will be activated only in the event of an enemy attack on the United States. For testing purposes, " growl" and
| |
| " silent" tests are available.
| |
| System Configuration The Limerick EPZ is composed of portions of three counties (Berks, Chester, Montgomery), each having a central control point forActivation activating and interrogating the sirens of its own county.
| |
| information is passed from the county central control point to a VHF-FM digital base station radio via computer-conditioned telephone lines.
| |
| The base station is located centrally within the EPZ. A second "back-up" base station is also available. The three counties share the single base station; however, due to the short duration needed to send the activation signal (2 seconds per county), a conflict or delay is not anticipated. Each of the siren-remote controllers transmits a digital signsi to the base station to be interpreted by the central control point for status information. Siren activation, failure, power failure, etc., are reported for display on the county computer screen, printer and magnetic disk log.
| |
| In the event of any system failures, the siren site will relay The a
| |
| message to the central control point of the specific county.
| |
| failure will be displayed on the video terminal and orinted in hard copy by the printer. The county then will ensure the dispatch of supplemental route alert teams (reference Appendix C-6).
| |
| II. Emergency Broadcast System (EBS)
| |
| A. Definition and Authority:
| |
| The Emergency Broadcast System (EBS) exists to furnish an expedited means of furnishing real time comunications to the public in the event of war, threat of war, or grave national, regional or local crisis. An emergency system such as EBS is authorized by Sections 1, 4(i) and (o), and 303 (r) of the Comunications Act of 1934 as amended. This is also in consonance with the Philadelphia Extended Operational Area Emergency Comuni-cations Committee and the Pennsylvania Emergency Communications Comittee.
| |
| B. Purpose The purpose of the Emer9ency Broadcast System (EBS) is to provide information and instruction in the event of any emergency requiring public action, including an emergency at the Limerick Generating Station. The Emergency Broadcast System will be activated to provide specfic information to the public following activation of the Public Alert System of the Limerick Generating Station.
| |
| l O' C-1-2
| |
| | |
| l l
| |
| O C. Activation At the request of designated Local, State or Federal officials, the Emergency Broadcast System may be activated. Appropriate authentication will be required. The designated officials will use the following format when contacting the EBS station:
| |
| "This is [NAME/ TITLE] of Chester County. I request that the emergency broadcast system be activated for Chester County due to an emergency at the Limerick Generating Station."
| |
| " Authentication Code .
| |
| Upon verification of authentication code, the EBS station personnel, in conjunction with the designated official, will determine broadcast details such as the use of live or recorded messages, the time of broadcast and the like.
| |
| D. Broadcast Upon verification of authentication and a determination to utilize live or recorded material, the EBS station may:
| |
| : 1. Broadcast the following announcements:
| |
| g "We interrupt this program due to an emergency affecting Chester County. Important infomation will follow."
| |
| : 2. Transmit the Emergency Broadcast System Two Tone Attention Signal for 20-25 seconds.
| |
| : 3. Broadcast the following announcement and broadcast the emergency material:
| |
| "We interrupt this program to activate the Emergency Broadcast System for Chester County because of an emergency at the Limerick Generating Station. Important information will follow."
| |
| -- EBS Message #1
| |
| -- EBS Message #2 (reference EBS messages
| |
| -- EBS Message #3 in Annex D)
| |
| -- EBS Message #4 etc.
| |
| E. Termination Upon receipt of the termination notice from the activating official, make the following announcement:
| |
| "This concludes operations under the Chester County Emergency Broadcast System."

| APPENDIX C-2 CHESTER COUNTY NOTIFICATION SEQUENCE Upon receipt of notification of an incident at the plant, from either PEMA, PEco or Montgomery County depending on incident circumstances, the County Communications Center will verify the notification if it is not received via the dedicated telephone line. The Communications Center will activate notifications as directed by the DES Duty Officer (assigned on a twenty-four hour basis) or the DES Director, using the RECALL system.
| |
| As EOC staff arrive at the EOC, they will be provided with a RECALL printout indicating notifications accomplished, and will then initiate remaining notifications and verify notifications for their respective areas pursuant to appropr. ate implementing procedures.
| |
| In rapidly developing situations requiring expeditious public alert, the Communications Center can, on direction of the DES duty officer or Director, activate the EBS network and appropriate sirens, simulta-neously with the initiation of the RECALL notification sequence. In all other cases, the DES PIO will assume responsibility for EBS activa-tion under direction of the DES Director through the Communications Center, and for coordination of public alert. The Communications Group O assumes responsibility for all other notification and for coordinating verification actions.

It should be made known to the person (s) responsible for the facility that Red Cross management must
| |
| ' be accepted in order for the Red Cross to fund its operation, and any unusual costs incurred before the Red Cross assumes management respon-sibility are not the responsibility of the Red Cross.

| |
| III. PURPOSE To specify the County's overall plan for radiation protection of the general public and offsite emergency workers, including incident assessment, radioactive plume monitoring, protective action measures, decontamination monitoring of the general public and offsite emergency workers to include their clothing and equipment, and disposal of radiologically contaminated waste. Information on evacuation and means of disseminating emergency information to the public is included in Annexes J and D respectively.
| |
| IV. CONCEPT OF OPERATIONS A. County Department of Emergency Services (DES)
| |
| The County DES will rely upon the Bureau of Radiation Protection, through PEMA, for incident assessment, field monitoring, and M-3 1
| |
| | |
| (D V representation at the Onsite Emergency Operations Facility for the receipt, analysis, and coordination of field monitoring data.
| |
| The County DES will provide for: protection of emergency workers via training, distribution of dosimetry and KI; decontamination monitoring of the general public, as well as federal, state, county and municipal emergency workers; decontamination monitoring of pertinent personal items including vehicles and emergency equipment; appropriate medical referrals for further monitoring, decontamination and treatment; maintenance and distribution of dosimetery, chargers, survey meters, KI in tablet fom and related record keeping forms to municipalities and decontamination centers; maintenance of a radiological exposure record system; certifi-cation of farmers as emergency workers for access to livestock kept within the plume exposure pathway EPZ; and training of personnel to carry out radiological exposure control plans.
| |
| B. Pennsylvania Emergency Management Agency (PEMA)
| |
| The Pennsylvania Emergency Management Agency: coordinates with BRP, the utility, other state agencies, federal government agen-cies and risk counties for protective actions of the public and emergency workers; provides counties during the emergency periodic situation reports including incident assessment and plume exposure information; specifies procedures for decontamination of emergency
| |
| ! O l personnel and their clothing; assists FRMAP (Federal Radiological Monitoring and Assessment Plan) personnel with pertinent logistics (V information related to the disposal of radiation contaminated waste materials generated from the general public and offsite emergency workers; distributes dosimetry and KI to county emer-gency management agencies and specifies implementation of a comprehensive inventory-maintenance program for those items; collects TLDs and appropriate records from the county after each incident; assists the Department of Health with the distribution of potassium iodide.
| |
| l C. BureauofRadiationProtection(BRP)
| |
| The Bureau of Radiation Protection is the state agency that will conduct the technical tasks of incident assessment and air moni-toring for detection and definition of the radioactive plume. BRP calculates projected radiation doses to the whole body and thyroid and reports these projections, as well as acutal radiation expo-sure rates and total doses received by affected creas, to PEMA.
| |
| BRP recommends protective actions based on its information and analysis of the situation. BRP interprets the Department of Environmental Resource's analysis of environmental, agricultural and foodstuffs sampling, and reports these findings, as appro-priate, to PEMA, the Department of Health and the Department of Agriculture. BRP collates the state, federal and licensee data i
| |
| p M-4
| |
| | |
| O for comprehensive technical analysis and transmits its information to PEMA who, in turn, relays appropriate information through emergency management channels.
| |
| D. TLD Service Contractor During an incident and at PEMA's request, the TLD service contrac-tor will conduct mechanical " reading" of the TLDs used by emer-gency workers. The contractor will relay the readings and related information to BRP or PEMA.
| |
| E. Municipal Governments Each municipal government within the plume exposure pathway EPZ will assist the county in issuing dosimetry and KI to emergency workers within its area at the SITE EMERGENCY classification.
| |
| F. Emergency Workers In addition to the performance of assigned tasks, emergency workers are responsible for utilizing their dosimeters, KI, and Dosimetry-KI Report Form as prescribed (reference Appendix 2, Section IV) and for undergoing decontamination monitoring (refer-ence Appendix 1, Section I.D.).
| |
| The uppermost limit of radiation exposure is set by the Burr of m Radiation Protection (BRP) at 25 rem whole body exposure, and this (d ) limit should not be exceeded except for authorized life saving missions (reference Appendix 2, Section IV.B.4). Emergency workers should strive to keep any exposure as low as reasonably achievable (reference Appendix 2, Section IV).
| |
| G. Decontamination Monitoring Teams Decontamination monitoring teams will monitor (meaning check with a CD V-700 survey meter) members of the public and emergency workers to ascertain if individuals are contaminated with a radiation emitting substance. BRP has set the action level for determining whether individuals are contaminated at 0.05 mR/hr (milliroentgens per hour) above background. If an individual is contaminated at 0.05 mR/hr above background or more, then the decontamination monitoring team must decontaminate the individual.
| |
| Procedures for decontamination monitoring teams are included in Appendix 1 to this Annex.
| |
| V. RADIATION EXPOSURE CONTROL FOR THE GENERAL PUBLIC A. Protective Actions l
| |
| : 1. The County may receive recommendations for protective action measures from PEMA or the Limerick Generating Station, M-5 v
| |
| l
| |
| | |
| l r3
| |
| : 2. The two primary protective action options for the general public are Sheltering and Evacuation; the plans for implemen-tation of these are described in Annexes C, D, and J.
| |
| B. Decontamination Monitoring The County DES is responsible for providing decontamination monitoring of the public housed at mass care centers located within the county. People evacuated to support counties will receive decontamination monitoring services from the respective support county. Utilizing trained radiation monitors equipped with survey meters, the public may be monitored for radiation contamination at mass care centers. Appendix 1 to this Annex sets forth the procedures for decontamination monitoring at mass care centers.
| |
| VI. EMERGENCY WORKER RADIATION EXPOSURE CONTROL Unlike the general public, emergency workers with assignments within the plume exposure pathway EPZ are not always able to take shelter snd they cannot evacuate the area due to their mission responsibility.
| |
| Other protective measures available to emergency workers are enumerated below.
| |
| A. Dosimetry f
| |
| \.
| |
| : 1. Each emergency worker assigned tasks within the plume expo-sure pathway EPZ will be provided two self-reading dosimeters (one CD V-730 or one DCA-622 and one CD V-742) and one thermoluminescent dosimeter (TLD). The self-reading dosimeters enable the worker to monitor himself during the emergency for total radiation dose received; the TLD is an independently read (by the TLD service contractor) device that is generally considered to be more dependable, accurate and precise than the self-reading dosimeters. Each emergency worker is responsible for following the dosimetry procedures, j
| |
| including record keeping. Appendix 2 to this Annex sets l
| |
| forth guidance and procedures related to dosimetry for
| |
| ! emergency workers. Appendix 3 to the Annex is a distribution list which specifies the amounts of dosimetry, dosimeter chargers, bottles of KI (see paragraph B below), and survey meters (see paragraph V.B. above) for each particular emer-gency organization.
| |
| : 2. The " Receipt Form for Dosimetry-Survey Meters-KI" (reference Attachment E to Appendix 2) and the " Acknowledgement of Receipt by Emergency for Dosimetry-KI and Survey Meters" form (reference Attachment F to Appendix 2) will be used for inventory control of the equipment and KI distributed to emergency workers.

| - . ._ _ _ =-
| |
| O -
| |
| : 3. Federal and state government personnel are expected to provide their own dosimetry and thyroid gland radioprotective drugs.
| |
| B. Thyroid Gland Protective Drug
| |
| : 1. The accumulation of radioactive isotopes of the comon ele-ment iodine in the thyroid gland is a potential threat during a nuclear power plant incident. Potassium iodide (KI) is a drug that acts as a blocking agent, preventing the radio active iodine from lodging in the thyroid gland.
| |
| : 2. XI tablets are distributed with dosimetry by PEMA to the County DES, who will distribute them to risk municipalities at the ALERT classification. Individual workers will receive K!
| |
| et SITE EMERGENCY, Liquid KI is distributed to risk hospitals for use by the hospital staff, medical complement, and the patients.
| |
| : 3. KI should be taken only on the advice of the Secretary of the Pennsylvania Department of health. General information for the emergency worker regarding KI and protection of the thyroid gland is included in Appendix 2 to this Annex.
| |
| C. Double Clothing (Rain Gear) Protection T Emergency workers can use their personal rain gear as a prevention j against deposition of contamination on the body and personal clothing / uniform. Firefighting protective clothing may be used if available. A rain hat or other head cover such as a helmet or winter hat, boots or galoshes with pant legs tucked in, rain coat or winter coat with the collar turned up, and gloves offer effective protection by minimizing skin and clothing / uniform exposure to contaminants that may be present. Extremes in the weather can make the use of double clothing extremely uncomfor-table; therefore, BRP will issue an appropriate advisory through emergency management channels at the time of an incident if double I clothing protection is to be employed.
| |
| l D. Respiratiory Protection Should unforeseen circumstances occur whereby emergency workers would be temporarily exposed to a radioactive plume, they should improvise respiratory protective measures if regular respiratory protective gear is not available. BRP will send prompt notice through emergency management channels if respiratory protective measures for offsite emergency workers are recomended. Impro-vised respiratory protective measures included in BRP's plan are:
| |
| : 1. Sheltering in a vehicle or building that can be " buttoned-up" (windows, doors,andairventsclosed).
| |
| M-7 l
| |
| | |
| ' 2. Conscientiously covering the mouth and nose with a cloth or filtering device (suggested items include a folded handker-chief, 3 or 4 plys of toilet tissue, or a folded towel).
| |
| While these methods may not be fully effective against vapors and gasses, they can be effective temporary protection against radio-active particulates (until the plume passes or the offsite worker evacuates), if available, self-contained breathing aparatus or industrial filter masks should be used.
| |
| E. Decontamination Monitoring of Emergency Workers I. Upon completion of his/her mission, each emergency worker must report to a decontamination monitoring station or mass care center to be monitored (and decontaminated, if neces-sary). Of course, the emergency workers performing decon-tamination monitoring at the mass care center will conduct decontamination monitoring for themselves.
| |
| : 2. Decontamination Stations for Emergency Workers are:
| |
| : a. Elverson Fire Company, Hall Street, Elverson
| |
| : b. Lionville Fire Company, Village Avenue, Lionville
| |
| : c. Valley Forge Volunteer Fire Company, Valley Park Road, Valley Forge
| |
| : 3. Emergency workers may receive the same decontamination monitoring service at mass care / decontamination centers.
| |
| 4 Whether at a decontamination station or mass care / decon-tamination center, the same procedures for decontamination monitoring as specified for the general public apply to emergency workers with the exception of the thyroid check.
| |
| Emergency workers should be monitored for accumulation of radioiodine in the thyroid gland (reference Appendix 1 SectionII.8).
| |
| F. Radiological Training, Inventory, Maintenance and Record Keeping With the assistance of PEMA, the County DES will ensure dosimetry training including dosimeter charging, dosimeter reading and recording of information.
| |
| Equipment and K! inventory and maintenance procedures with appro-priate records are specified in Appendix 4 to this Annex.
| |
| Inventory control during the emergency will consist of a trail of accountability from each agency issuing eauipment through the individual end user of the equipment and KI. Fonns and procedures for this purpose are included in Appendix 2.
| |
| M-8 O
| |
| | |
| 1 I
| |
| I
| |
| .O VII. PROTECTION FOR INSTITUTIONAL PERSONNEL A. The evacuation time for hospitals and nursing homes is exper+ed to be greater than that for the general population.
| |
| * Consequently, the staff and medical complement of this hospital ,
| |
| are considered emergency workers and therefore are provided KI and dosimetry.
| |
| B. Liquid KI will be distributed to hospitals and nursing homes located within the plume exposure pathway EPZ. Sufficient units for 100% of the patients and 50% of the staff for a fourteen day
| |
| < period are on hand. The County DES is responsible for notifying the institutions when the Secretary of the Department of Health advises the use of KI.
| |
| C. Decontamination monitoring of institutional staff and residents can be accomplished by utilizing the institution's own capability and that of the host institution, decontamination stations for emergency workers, or decontamination centers located with mass care / decontamination centers. Decontamination stations will be wholly or partially available within 12 hours after comencement of evacuation and therefore will be available to move to receiving sites for institutional personnel. The County DES will coordinate these arrangements as the situation develops.

| DECONTAMINATION MONITORING PROCEDURES l
| |
| I I. GENERAL INFORMATION AND ORGANIZATION [
| |
| A. Decontamination Monitoring of the Public In the event of a fixed nuclear facility incident, the public and emergency workers m ua have to be individually monitored to ascer-j tain whether the iTividual n is contaminated with a radioactive substance. If a person is found to be contammated, then he/she must be decontaminated. BRP will issue a statement indicating whether decontamination monitoring is required and PEMA will send this message through emergency management channels. Decontami-
| |
| ! nation monitorino teams will be located at mass care centers and
| |
| ! will perform decontamination monitoring upon request regardless of
| |
| ' whether it is required, j +
| |
| B. Organization at Mass Care Centers j 1. Mass care centers for evacuees will serve as points where decontamination monitoring and decontamination procedures
| |
| 'will be conducted. When decontamination monitoring is i j required evacuees will, upon arrival at the mass care center .
| |
| ; and if necessary, be decontaminated and then admitted to the t
| |
| ; " general living" portion of the mass care center. Trained decontamination monitoring teams will conduct the monitoring l
| |
| ~
| |
| for radiological contamination, carry out decontamination ;
| |
| ; procedures, and complete associated records. This activity, i
| |
| while falling under the overall coordination of the mass care i center manager, is not an integral part of that operation. i Decontamination monitoring teams take direction from the l county radiological officer. Decontamination monitoring of
| |
| ! evacuees should be completed as soon as possible; decontam-1 ination monitoring of personal belongings (i.e., clothing, personal articles, vehicles) can be accomplished after the :
| |
| evacuees have been processed. *
| |
| : 2. Decontamination monitoring teams will organize their areas and traffic flow patterns so that contaminated persons and
| |
| ; those to be monitored will not mix with the contamination-i free individuals already admitted to the general living i section of the mass care center. For example, persons will l be sent to the decontamination area (showers) by a route that j will not place them in contact with contamination-free areas.
| |
| Showers used for decontamination will not be available for general use until they are decontaminated.
| |
| M-1-1 I
| |
| i
| |
| | |
| C. Decontamination Monitoring Services for Persons Who Are Not Housed at Mass Care Centers.
| |
| Persons who do not intend to stay at a mass care center, but who wish to be monitored will be extended these services at mass care / l decontamination centers. The decontamination monitoring proce- <
| |
| dures and record keeping are identical for people who stay or do not stay at mass care centers.
| |
| Upon direction by BRP that decontamination monitoring is neces-sary, decontamination monitoring teams will also be dispatched to host health care facilities.
| |
| D. Decontamination Monitoring Station for Emergency Workers
| |
| : 1. Upon completion of his/her mission, or as directed by super-visors, each emergency worker must report to a decontami-nation monitoring station or a mass care / decontamination center to be monitored for radiological contamination and, if necessary, be decontaminated.
| |
| : 2. Most emergency workers will be working within the plume
| |
| : i. exposure pathway EPZ which extends approximately ten miles in a 360* circumference from the nuclear facility. Since the mass care / decontamination centers for the public are generally i
| |
| located 20 or more miles from the nuclear facilities, special p " decontamination monitoring stations for emergency workers" are established closer to the plume exposure pathway EPZ.
| |
| Therefore, emergency workers will not be required to travel the longer distance to mass care / decontamination centers for 1
| |
| decontamination monitoring.
| |
| : 3. Each mass care center and decontamination monitoring station is to extend its service to any requesting emergency worker, whether federal, state, county, municipal employee or volunteer.
| |
| E. Equipment and Personnel Requirements
| |
| : 1. The instrument used for decontanination monitoring is the CD V-700 Geiger-Mueller Survey Meter (range: approximately 0.0 to 50 mR/h).
| |
| : 2. A sufficient number of CD V-700 survey meters are available for each mass care center to allow one meter for each 250 mass care spaces; decontamination stations have available one CD V-700 for each 50 emergency workers.
| |
| : 3. Personnel requirements are one trained monitor and one recorder (assistant to the monitor) for each survey meter as a minimum. Each decontamination monitor and recorder is supplied with dosimetry (CD V-742 and TLD) and KI.
| |
| i i M-1-2
| |
| | |
| p
| |
| ("/ Inventory, maintenance, and property accountability with 4.
| |
| regard to dosimetry, survey meters and KI are described in Appendix 4 to this Annex.
| |
| F. Decontamination Monitoring Record Keeping Decontaminatin monitoring personnel will be responsible for completing a " Decontamination Monitoring Report Form" (reference Attachment A to this Appendix) for each individual with a reading of 0.05 mR/h (milliroentgens per hour) or more above background, which is the action level set by BRP indicating that decontami-nation of the individual is necessary. The fom will be com-pleted, signed b ,
| |
| monitoring, (2) y the after firstmonitor at each (3) decontamination of after the steps second[(1) initial decontamination, (4) medical referral.] Two copies of the form will be prepared. One copy will be given to the individual when decontamination is completed or when the individual is sent to a medical facility. The original will be retained by the county in a historical file. Chester County will make these forms available to BRP, if requested.

| Decontamination team chiefs should verbally report on the results of monitoring at two hour intervals to their County Radiological
| |
| [.m Officers. The report shall include the following cumulative data:
| |
| V; number of persons monitored; number contaminated; number decontami-nated; number referred to a medical facility (for radiation decontanination/ treatment);thehighestreading(above0.05mR/h) on any particular individual; and any unusual or particularly notable findings. The County DES is responsible for consolidating this information and reporting it immediately to PEMA who in turn will relay the information to BRP.
| |
| II. PROCEDURES FOR DECONTAMINATION MONITORING TEAMS A. Decontamination Monitoring Procedures Monitors performing decontamination monitoring of people should follow these procedures:
| |
| : 1. Select a reception location for conducting the monitoring operation. Precautions must be taken to prevent contami-nation of the area.
| |
| : 2. Use the CD V-700. Attach the headphone. This allows the monitor to observe the position of the probe and better control it while monitoring. The headphone responds more quickly to changes in radiation level than does the meter.
| |
| : 3. Check the operability of the C0 V-700.

| |
| | |
| O G 4 Place the probe in a light plastic bag or cover of light-weight material to prevent contamination. This is desirable but not mandatory.
| |
| : 5. Periodically determine the background radiation level of the location where the monitoring is to take place. If the meter indication is above background radiation with the probe shield closed, find a better location that will bring the meter indication as low as possible.
| |
| : 6. Open the shield on the CD V-700 probe and put on the head-phone.
| |
| : 7. Place the probe two inches from the head, being careful not to touch the person.
| |
| : 8. Move the probe downward on one side of the neck, the collar, the shoulder, arm, wrist, hand, underarm, armpit, side of body, side of leg, around the cuff and shoe, including the bottom of the shoe. Then monitor the inside of the leg from the cuff to the groin and continue the procedure on the other side of the body (reference Illustration 1).
| |
| : 9. Monitor the front and back of the body,
| |
| : 10. Record the information on the Decontamination Monitoring e Report Form (reference Attachment A to this Appendix).
| |
| (
| |
| : 11. Assure that individuals found to be contaminated are decontaminated.*
| |
| : 12. Monitor the individual after decontamination to determine that the contamination has been removed. Repeat decontam-ination procedures if contamination still remains.
| |
| B. Thyroid Gland Screening Check for Emergency Workers
| |
| : 1. In addition to the steps outlined in II.A. above, emergency l
| |
| workers are to be screened for thyroid gland uptake of radiciodine.
| |
| * A person is considered contaminated if there is a reading of 0.05 mR/h or.
| |
| more above background. Do not confuse background radiation with your readings; centaminaticn would be apparent by a sustained increase on the i
| |
| visual meter reading (selector switch on X 1 range), and also by a marked increase in the audible indication from the headphone.
| |
| M-1-4
| |
| | |
| O O . 2. The thyroid uptake screening procedure follows:
| |
| : a. The CD V-700 is used as the screening detector for thyroid uptake of radiciodine. .
| |
| t CAUTION The individual being checked must be free of any contamination before this procedure is implemented,
| |
| : b. Monitors performing the thyroid screening uptake proce-dure should follow these steps:
| |
| (1) Put the probe with the shield closed across the front of the neck just below the larynx (Adam's Apple).
| |
| (2) If the reading is greater than or equal to 0.1 mR/hr, refer the individual to the appropriate medical facility for evaluation.
| |
| N (3) If the reading is less than 0.1 mR/hr, no further
| |
| ' action is necessary.
| |
| (4) Record the data on the Dosimetry-KI Report Form and sign in the appropriate place.
| |
| C. Decontamination of People
| |
| : 1. Contaminated persons should sponge contmainated areas with soap and cool water. Emphasis should be placed on any speci-i fic spots found to be contaminated in the monitoring process..
| |
| : 2. After sponging the individual should be monitored again. If some contamination still remains, the individual should shower with cool water and use a mild soap. Special atten-tion should be given to the hair, hands, fingernails, and identified contaminated areas. If monitoring indicates that the contamination is still present, the individual should be sent to the nearest medical facility capable of treating contaminated persons.
| |
| i 3. Care should be taken that persons who are decontaminated do not become recontaminated by dressing in contaminated clothing (the clothing the brought by them.)y If thewere wearing individual doesor notpossibly other clothing have contami-
| |
| ' nation free clothing, clothing should be issued the indivi-dual until such time as their clothing can be decontaminated.

| | |
| D. Decontamination Procedures for Wounds Persons with contaminated wounds should be referred to an appro-priate medical facility for radiation decontamination and treatment.
| |
| E. Clothing Decontamination Procedures
| |
| : 1. Articles which are machine washable should be laundered with a conventional detergent, line dried in a contamination free area or machine dried, and retained until they can be monitored.
| |
| Water repellent items may be scrubbed with water and detergent, and retained until monitored.
| |
| : 2. The County DES is responsible for arranging for a laundry facility dedicated to washing of contaminated clothing.
| |
| F. Decontamination Procedures for Supplies, Instruments and Equipment
| |
| : 1. The item in question should be monitored first to determine the extent and area of contamination by thoroughly going over the object with the CD V-700 probe (with open shield) about
| |
| - two inches from the surface. Decontamination of these articles is generally accomplished by wiping or washing to
| |
| , the extent necessary to remove the radiological contaminants.
| |
| : 2. The County DES is responsible for arranging for radiation I, monitoring of vehicles and for decontamination. At mass care D) centers, monitoring to the evacuees teams will as described initially in (a) (direct their and b)above. Whenefforts time permits, the monitoring teams can monitor the vehicles of the evacuees where they are parked. Generally, external monitor-ing of vehicles will be sufficient; however, inside monitor-ing will also be done for those vehicles found to be exter-nally contaminated and those vehicles used by persons found to be contaminated. Suitable car washing arrangements can be made for external decontamination depending upon the number of vehicles contaminated and amount of radiological contami-nants. The county will seek the advice of BRP, through PEMA, in deciding what measures will be effective and expeditious.
| |
| Vehicles with contamination in the interiors will be impounded and BRP must be consulted, through PEMA, on how to deconta-minate these vehicles before they are returned to their owners.
| |
| G. Di_sposal of Contaminated Wastes
| |
| : 1. As described above, clothing and similar materials as well as miscellaneous equipment and vehicles can be decontaminated.
| |
| Where cleaning materials and other items cannot be success-fully decontaminated, special handling is necessary.
| |
| \
| |
| M-1-7
| |
| | |
| I
| |
| : 2. Contaminated waste materials should be packaged in a plastic bag, tied securely at the top, and placed in a metal container 1 with a snug fitting lid (garbage can) until it is laundered.
| |
| If any material cannot be decontaminated by laundering, place it in the same type of plastic bag and container and store in a locked room that is not used for any other purpose until such time as the contaminated waste is disposed of by FRMAP j
| |
| personnel. Accumulation of contaminated waste materials and the need for disposal should be reported through the emer-l
| |
| ' gency management system.

| O v APPENDIX 2 ANNEX M DOSIMETRY AND POTASSIUM IODIDE (KI) INFORMATION I. GENERAL INFORMATION A. Each emergency worker assigned tasks within the plume exposure pathway EPZ will be equipped with three dosimeters, a Dosimetry-KI i Report Form, and a 14 day supply of potassium (KI). Two of the dosimeters are self-reading; they are the CD V-730 or a DCA-622, both of which measure from 0 to 20 R and the CD Y-N2 which measures from 0 to 200 R. The third dosimeter is a themolumines-cent dosimeter (TLD) which is a card type device that is read by the TLD service contractor.
| |
| B. Decontamination monitoring team members are issued a CD V-742, a TLD, KI and a Dosimetry-KI Report Form.
| |
| C. Dosimeter chargers (CD V-750) which are used to "zero" or charge the self-reading dosimeters are located with, or within easy access to, each emergency organizational unit.
| |
| D. The CD V-740 (0-100R) self-reading dosimeter is considered an l adequate substitute for either the CD V-730 or CD V-742.
| |
| II. DISTRIBUTION OF DOSIMETRY-P0TASSIUM 10DIOE AND RELATED PROCEDURES A. Distribution The TLDs, CD V-730s or DCA-622s, CD V-742s, Dosimetry-KI Report Form, potassium iodide and appropriate numbers of CD V-750s in support of response to fixed nuclear facility incidents are available. For this purpose a " Dosimetry, KI, Survey Meter 4
| |
| Distribution List" is included as Appendix 3. This county list identifies by name and address each organization to be distributed these resources and specifies the number of dosimeters, units of KI, dosi~ meter chargers, and survey meters assigned to each agency.
| |
| The using organizations will distribute dosimetry and K! to emergency workers upon the declaration of SITE EMERGENCY. (Note:
| |
| Decontamination monitoring teams at decontamination centers and stations are not activated until SITE EMERGENCY, upon which distribution is made to the team.)
| |
| B. Property Control Property accountability must be maintained in the distribution process. The " Receipt Form for Dosimetry-Survey Meters-KI" (see Attachment E) is designed for transferral of quantities of equip-j ment from agency to agency, such as from the county to munici-M-2-1 I
| |
| i l
| |
| | |
| q t
| |
| h palities and decontamination teams, and from municipalities to emergency response organizations (fire, police, ambulance).
| |
| " Acknowledgment of Receipt by Emergency Workers for Dosimetry-KI and Survey Meters" (see Attachment F) is designed to expedite transferral of the equipment-KI to individual users. Municipal EOCs, fire companies, police departments, ambulance services and decontamination monitoring teams should use this form (Attachment F) to maintain accountability when distributing the equipment-KI to their individual emergency workers.
| |
| Upon termination of an incident, all equipment and unused KI must be returned to the county DES.
| |
| C. Control TLD's
| |
| : 1. In the event of an incident, the County DES will collect the designated " Control TLDs." Control TLDs are equal in number to about 5% of the total amount allotted for distribution.
| |
| Each " control TLD" is so labeled and the serial numbers are not in the same sequential batch as the TLDs meant for distribution to emergency workers. As coordinated by PEMA, the control TLDs will be forwarded to the TLD service contrac-tor. The County DES will complete the " Control TLDs Form" i (reference Attachment B) and forward it with the control TLDs.
| |
| : 2. The purpose of " Control TLDs" is to allow measurement of a
| |
| " baseline" of radiation (background radiation) that the TLDs had been exposed to at the time the county distributed TLDs in reaction to the incident. The measurement of the accumu-lated background radiation as measured by the control TLDs will be subtracted from the reading obtained from each emergency worker in the county. This procedure can be characterized as a " mathematical zeroing" of the TLD. (The CD V-730s DCA-622s and CD V-742s will be zeroed by the user organizations as they are put into use.)
| |
| 4 3. At the time of the incident the County DES will ensure that the control TLDs are not exposed to radiation other than background radiation.
| |
| III. POTASSIUM IODIDE (KI)
| |
| A. Background Information
| |
| : 1. Iodine accumulates in the thyroid gland which is located at the front base of the neck just below the larynx (Adam's apple). Radioactive iodine is no different; 1.e., it will accumulate in the thyroid gland in high concentration.
| |
| Taking KI will have the effect of saturating the thyroid gland with iodine so that radioactive iodine does not lodge M-2-2 i
| |
| I L.
| |
| | |
| I 1
| |
| l
| |
| ( there in a large quantity. Hence, KI lessens the risk to the thyroid gland; otherwise, it provides no protection against radiation.
| |
| : 2. The Pennsylvania Department of Health is responsible for developing policies relating to use of KI during fixed nuclear incidents. The department has procured KI tablets for emergency workers and KI in liquid form for staff and patients of risk hospitals. Thyro-Block (product of Carter-Wallace Inc.) is the brand name of the KI tablets procured by the department. A unit of Thyro-Block consists of 14 tablets of 130 milligrams in size; the dose is one tablet per day.
| |
| The liquid preparation (manufactured by Roxanne, Inc.) dosage is six drops per day; for planning purposes the liquid KI requirements are based upon a 14 day supply per person.
| |
| : 3. The toxicity level of KI is very low and dangers in taking this drug are considered to be minimal. Nonetheless, indi-viduals should not take more than the recomended dose.
| |
| Although side effects of KI are unlikely because of the low dose and the short time period it will be taken, some side effects are possible. The side effects may include: skin rashes, swelling of the salivary glands, and " iodism"
| |
| - (metallic taste, burning mouth and throat, sore teeth and gums, cold symptoms and sometimes gastrointestinal symptoms.)
| |
| m A few people may have an allergic reaction with more serious symptoms. These symptoms could include elevated temperature,
| |
| [U) joint pains, swelling of the face and body, and at times, severe shortness of breath which requires imediate medical attention.
| |
| : 4. The effectiveness of KI as a blocking agent is greatest if administered before the time of exposure to radioactive iodine but some exposure saving can be obtained by admin-istration shortly after exposure. Infomation on Thyro-Block and on the liquid KI are included in Attachments C and D to this Appendix.
| |
| B. Pennsylvania Department of Health Policies on KI
| |
| : 1. KI in tablet form is available to emergency workers (emer-gency management agencies, police forces, fire companies, ambulance services, and farmers keeping livestock). Those emergency worker organizations and institutions that receive KI protection are specified in Appendix 3.
| |
| : 2. The Secretary of the Deparment of Health is charged with the decision to use KI during an incident. KI should be taken only on the advice of the Secretary of the Department of Health.Tne Secretary's advice will be disseminated to emer-gency workers through emergency management channels. Upon M-2-3 i
| |
| | |
| D (d
| |
| taking KI, the emergency worker should record this infor-mation on the Dosimetry-KI Report Form (see Attachment A to i
| |
| this Appendix).
| |
| : 3. The Department of Health will provide the public with infor-mation concerning KI.
| |
| IV. D0SIMETRY READINGS, RECORD KEEPING AND PROTECTIVE ACTION OPTIONS A. Dosimetry Reading Procedures
| |
| : 1. Dosimeters should be worn in the pocket of an outer garment from the time of issue until the worker is dismissed from duty or until PEMA recommends dosimetry is no longer neces-sary. In no case should the TLD be worn by more than one person since there is no way of ascertaining later how much of the dose recorded on the TLD was received by each indi-vidual if more than one person was involved.
| |
| : 2. For practical purposes each Roentgen registered on either of the self-reading dosimeters is to be interpreted to mean that
| |
| * the worker has received a corresponding number of rem, e.g.,
| |
| a reading of 5 R should be interpreted to mean that a S rem i ,
| |
| dose has been received.*
| |
| s 3. Each emergency worker should read the self-reading dosimeters at least once each thirty minutes.
| |
| : 4. Two self-reading dosimeters provide redundancy. Workers should heed the higher measurement taken from the two dosi-meters. It is possible for dosimeters of this type to have
| |
| '' electrical leakage" that will register a reading not caused by radiation. Nonetheless, workers are to " err on the side of caution" by heeding the higher reading.
| |
| B. Protective Action Guides (PAG) for Emergency Workers
| |
| : 1. Whole Body Exposure - The protective action guide for whole l
| |
| body exposure specified by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and by BRP is 25 rem. Workers should use the self-reading dosimeter (s) to ensure that the 25 rem whole body PAG is not exceeded. By regularly checking the self-reading casimeter(s), the worker can make reasonable judgments about how much radiation, if any, has been received and at what rate it is being received.
| |
| * Ais Roentgen based upon(R) is a as effects unitmeasured of measurement of x-ray (or gamma radiation thatr) is a in air; a rem measurement that is based upon effects as measured in the human body. In this plan Roentgen and rem are considered to be essentially the same.
| |
| M-2-4 l
| |
| s .
| |
| {
| |
| l l
| |
| : 2. Emergency workers and supervisors are cautioned that the 25 rem protective action guide should not be construed as
| |
| " license" to incur radiation exposure unnecessarily. Workers and supervisors should attempt to keep exposure as low as reasonably achievable. This concept means that exposure to radiation should be kept to a minimum for all persons and that any one individual should not receive a total dose far in excess of other emergency workers if circumstances permit substitution of personnel, termination of the assignment, or other protective action.
| |
| : 3. Thyroid Gland Exposure - The EPA and BRP PAG for thyroid dose is 125 rem for emergency workers but with no specific upper limit for life saving activities. An upper limit is not given for thyroid exposure since in the extreme case complete thyroid loss might be acceptable for a life saved.
| |
| : 4. Life Saving Missions - Responsible emergency management of offsite workers dictates that exceeding the 25 rem protective action guide should not occur. However, should there be extraordinary circumstances wherein a person's life is at stake, the 24 rem whole body dose may be exceeded in order to complete a life saving mission. The EPA and BRP specify an upper limit of 75 rem whole body dose for life saving missions, i.e., subject to special approval, conditions, and measures.
| |
| Therefore, persons who volunteer for a life saving mission p8 may exceed the 25 rem whole body limit set for emergency gV workers. In no case may they exceed 75 rem.
| |
| Elected officials may authorize volunteer emergency workers to exceed the protective action guidelines (25 rem whole body exposure) to a maximum of 75 rem for a life saving mission.
| |
| This advance authorization is intended to avoid delay in performing a necessary life saving mission. A wide margin of safety should be maintained to avoid risk from possible radiation exposure adverse long term health effects caused (see paragraph C below). Decision makers by(elected officials) should consider the information in paragraph C below and also ensure that the following conditions have been met:
| |
| I
| |
| : a. The mission is of life saving importance,
| |
| : b. Alternative solutions have been exhausted,
| |
| : c. Emergency workers should be healthy adult male volunteers, preferably over 45 years of age.
| |
| : d. The energency workers selected should be persons whose normal duties might involve such missions; i.e., police-
| |
| ' men and firefighters with suitable protective clothing anc' respirctr.ry eouipr.ent.

| |
| '\_)
| |
| : e. The mission is accomplished in the least amount of " stay time."
| |
| : f. The errergency workers are knowledgeable of and accept the increased risk of exceeding the 25 rem PAG.
| |
| C. Increased Risks Due to Radiation Exposure
| |
| * Infcrmation concerning the possible censequences of emergency workers' exposure to radictirr; curing a fixed nuclear incident is organized below into three categories - (1) imediate somatic effects, (2) long term somatic effects, and (3) genetic effects.
| |
| Somatic is an adjective pertaining to characteristics of or effects on the body, as distinguished from genetic characteristics or genetic effects which are manifested in offspring (descen-dants).
| |
| : 1. Representative Relationships Between a Brief One-Time Radia-tion Exposure and Immediate Somatic Effects Representative Absorbed Dose of Whole Body X or Gama Radiation (rads) Nature of Effect 5-25 rem Minimal dose detectable by chromosome n analysis or other specialized analysis.
| |
| (2I x 50-75 rem Minimal acute dose readily detectable in a specific individual (e.g., one who presents himself as a possible exposure case).
| |
| 75-125 rem Minimal acute dose likely to produce vomiting in about 10% of people so exposed.
| |
| 150-200 rem Acute dose likely to produce transie t disability and clear hematoloaical changes in a majority of people so exposed.
| |
| : 2. Long Term Somatic Risks as a Result of a One Time Exposure to Radiation Current knowledge about the long term health effects resulting from a one time radiation exposure below 25 rem indicates that development of health problems, such as cancer, in adults so exposed is extremely unlikely. There is no direct clinical evidence of low level radiation (in this case

| V meaning a one time exposure below the whole body dose protec-tive action guide of 25 rem) causing health problems years after the exposure.
| |
| : 3. Genetic Effects of Radiation Radiation exposure of reproductive cells of the ovary and testis causes gene and chromosome abnormalities (mutation).
| |
| Persons exposed to any radiation should avoid the possibility of conception during the first few months after exposure, in order to virtually eliminate any possible genetic risk.
| |
| D. Dosimetry and KI Record Keeping
| |
| : 1. Each emergency worker is responsible for completing a Dosimetry-KI Report Fom (reference Attachment A) and for returning it, along with the dosimetry, to his organization at the temination of his services. Each emergency organi-zation will forward the foms and dosimetry to the County DES PEMA who in turn will deliver the TLDs and forms to PEMA.
| |
| will deliver the forms and TLDs from all counties to BRP who will deliver the TLDs to the TLD service contractor for reading. All dosimetry records will be forwarded to BRP for the purposes of record keeping, analysis, reporting and storage.
| |
| : 2. BRP will retain all original copies and will be the permanent
| |
| ' record keeper of the completed Dosimetry-KI Report Forms along with BRP's explanation of each, the TLD service contractor generated infomation and all related material. The records of individuals will be kept confidential.
| |
| : 3. BRP will use the Dosimetry-KI Report Form to select TLDs for immediate reading. The highest priority will be given to TLDs worn by persons whose self-reading dosimetry indicates 25 R or more, or where medical authority has reouested immediate reading, or where other circumstances warrant. In these cases, BRP will expedite delivery of the TLDs to the TLD service contractor and readings will be received within 24 hours after and contractor's receipt of the TLDs. BRP will
| |
| ' promptly relay the readings, with their interpretation to the individual and appropriate medical authorities. All other TLDs will be in the " routine" category of five day turn-around time from the TLD service contractor; individuals will be informed of the TLD readings.
| |
| : 4. If emergency workers turn in their TLD for reading and are later deployed in an area where dosimetry is needed, they should be issued new TLDs.

Farmers as Emergency Workers Farmers with livestock within the plume exposure pathway EPZ will be designated emergency workers if the EPZ is evacuated. The County DES will provide these famers with dosimetry and KI and identification enabling them to stay within or exit and reenter the evacuated area to tend livestock.
| |
| B. Distribution of Dosimetry-KI and Farmers' " Pass" to the Evacuated Area A " Contact and Dosimetry-KI Distribution Point for Fanners" will be established at Lionville Fire Department, Village Avenue, Lionville.
| |
| If an evacuation is necessary, an Emergency Broadcast System (EBS) announcement will direct fanners with livestock within the EPZ to report to this location. The County Agricultural Agent or his representative will distribute the dosimetry-KI to the farmers. A
| |
| " Farmer Emergency Worker Certification" form (reference Attachment G) will be completed in duplicate for each farmer. The original copy will be given to the farmer and serve as a pass for access to the evacuated area. The duplicate will be retained by the agri-culture representative as the basis for property control.
| |
| \ C. Limitation on Farmer Access to the Plume Exposure Pathway EPZ The farmer's emergency worker status and authorization to be in the EPZ can be suspended if the incident becomes serious enough tc warrant this action.
