EXECUTIVE SU % RY ("'T General C/ The purpose of the Executive Sumary is to provide an overview of the findings fer the offsite evaluation of the State of Ohio and Ottawa, Erie , and Lucas Counties during the March 31, 1987 radiological emergency

• preparedness joint exercise at the Davis 3 esso Nuclear Power Station (DBNPS). Issues identified in this report will be identified as being in .

one of the following categories: _ Deficiency: If this event happened or failed to happen during a real emergency public health and safety would have been adversely affected. Area Requiring Corrective Action: 1he event observed during the exercise would not affect public health and safety if it had occurred during a real emergency. The issue is serious enough, though, for FEMA to reqaire a schedule of corrective action. Areas Recotmended for Inprovement: The event observed during the exercise would not affeet public health and safety if it had occurred during a real , emergency. The issue is brought to the attention of State or local governm nt as a recomten3ation to improve plans and operations. No schedule of corrective action is required by FEMA.  ! i The DBNPS radiological em rgency preparedness joint exercise was conducted  ; on March 31, 1987 during normal duty hours. The exercise participants n critique was held by FEMA at the DBNPS Administration Building at 1:00 on April 2, 1987. The public and media briefing was held jointly by FEMA and Q NRC at 3:00 at the sam location. State of Ohio The State of Ohio selected twenty-three (23) objectives to be demnstrated . during the exercise. No deficiencies were identified. There were two (2) areas requiring corrective action identified. Four (4) reconynendations for I inprovemnt are offered for consideration by the State of Ohio. l l This was a partial participation exercise for the State of Ohio, with only l the comunications, dose assessment and public information sections being fully staffed. The ODSA was able to ef fectively activate these three sections of the State EOg following receipt and verification of the ALERT notification. The ODSA, OEPA, ODOH, Governor's representative and Toledo l Edison liason were present in the State EOC. Staff assigned to the ECC, the JPIC and field monitoring teams were also mobilized an$ dispatched at the ALERT level. 24-hour staffing capability was evidenced by double staf fing i or by presentation of a roster. The ODSA Deputy Director was of fectively in charge of '.he EO": operations. The dose assessannt group and the comunications group worked well together, t with the coimunications group receiving the inform'. ion from the field teams and forwarding it to the dose assesse nt group. Message han311ng was efficient. The State of Ohio requestei federal assistance from both the DOE O

 ,U and FEMA.

2 l l

The E(X' facilities and amenities are adeqJate to support the emegency response activities. There was a dedicated telephone, dataf ax, evnnercial O V telephone and ODSA radio net available to support comunications with the various locations and organizations responding to the simulated emrgen:y at the DBNPS. All of the above comnonications systems were effectively demonstrated during the exercise, particularly radio comunications with the comunications van and the field monitoting teams. There was space set aside in the ECC at the DBNPS Administration Building for the State an3 ottawa County. The State and County had full access to the displays and for consultation with utility personnel in the ECC. fne dose assess m nt room in the E0 was adegante for performing the functions assigned to the staf f located there. Noteworthy is the mictoconputer for performing disparsion calculations. The computer also maintains a data base of population density and evacuation studies that is useful for making protective action recoundations. These ;ecomendations were slao based on plant conditions, data f ron the field monitoring teams and predetermined actions associated with emrgency classification levels. The dose assessmnt group provided timely protective action recomandations to the Counties on three occasions during the exercise. The Counties initiated public alerting and notification based on the reconmndations they received from the State and the utility. ODSA and OEPA mobilized field monitoring teams from Columous and Bowling Green, respectively. The teams were properly equipped and demonstrated the appropriate procedures for air, soil, vegetation and surface water sample collection. The opportunity to demonstrate snow collection procedures was A missed. It is recomended that the field monitoring SOPS describe in () .grester detail the recently modified operating procedures for the multi-purpose survey instrument. It is also recoamended that the State of Ohio review its field monitoring training and procedures to determine if they should be revised to reduce the potential for contamination of equipment. l The ODOH Northwest District Office demonstrated milk sanpling procedures during the exercise. The team was properly equipped for sampling milk, had personal dosimetry, mps end SOPS, and perforned their duties in a professional and effective manner. It is reconmended that the milk sanpling team be eqaipped with a two-way radio to facilitate comunications. All sanples collected were taken to the Frenont Airport where the sanples were consolidated, screened by the ODOH staf f, transferred to an Ohio National Guard helicopter and transported to Coluabus for laboratory ' analysis. The procedures for the transport of field monitoring samples should be reviewed with personnel of the Ohio National Guard. Based on release rates provided by the utility and later confirmed by deposition masuremnts, the ODOH used plume dispersion models to mke recomendations to dairy f armrs. The ODOH maintains a data base on the sources of milk. The data base contains the location, owners nam, an3 telephone nunber for dairy farms and processing plauts. The' field nonitoring teams were equipped with dosimetry kits containing gy personal dosimters, record cards, dosimtec dargers and TLDs. They ware l' l t kj knowledgeable of exposure limits, reading dosimters and procedures for ! decontamination. Their radiological exposure was monitored by the field- [ team director. 3 1

i Based on its esiculation of a potential thyroid dose in excess of 25 REM, the State of Ohio recomended the use of KI by institutionalized individuals l and emrgency workers in the plum EPZ in accordance with the current draf t i b]

  /

policy. This policy does not recomen3 the use of KI by the general public. However, the distribution of KI could not be fully demonstrated because the State has not uniformly resolved its policy concerning the use l of K1 by institutionalized individuals and by emrgency workers within the  ! various agencies. The current draf t policy should be finalized and KI distributed in accordance with the final policy. The 1 tate has the capability to brief the mala at the State EOC, however, there was no mila present during the exercise. All mHia briefings were , handled at the JPIC which is located in the DBMPS Acministration Building. -

• Daring the exercise there was 'a simalated JPIC relocation to the alternate JPIC at the Toledo Edison corporate of fice in downtown Toledo. It is recommMed that this alternate JPIC be utilized during a future radiological emrgency preparedness joint exercisu.

The JPIC facility has suf ficient space ani resources to accomodate the various Plos and the mala. During the exercise six (6) mdia briefings r were conducte=1. The PI0s effectively coordinated the informtion to be ~ j presented to the mxila prior to the briefing. There was a separate room set , aside for this purpose. Twenty-four (24) pericdie news releases wara also distributed at the JPIC. These releases were well coordinated and containe3 general informtion and informtion from the County EBS mssages. Rumor control was established at the JPIC. The rumr control staff was p effective in coordinating responses to simulated public inquiries. The ,

 !   State, County and utility rumor control telephone nunbers were provided during briefings and in the news releases at the JPIC.                       ;

Ottawa County I ottawa County selected twenty-four (24) objectives to be demanstrated during the exercise. All of the objectives were successfully demonstrated by ottawa County. No deficiencies, areas requiring corrective action or recommodations were identified.

     'Ihe Ottawa County EOC consisting of the Executive Group and the operational staf f mobilized their staff and activated the EM according to their plan.

Around the clock staffing capability was demonstrated by the presentation of a roster or by double staf fing. Their facility is located in the basem nt of the Ottawa County Courthouse , Annex and is a facility which has been specially designed and equipped to support the staf f during omtgencies. Classification levels were posted, status boards were mintained aM all of the appropriate mps and displays were posted. The staff is well trained and demnstrated an effective .

                                                                                  +

response capability to deal with the DBNPS emrgency as well as additional minor emrgencies that were simlated to have occurred during the incident l at,the utility. The President, Ottawa County Board of Comnissioners, was effectively in charge of Ottawa County actions. The EOC staff were involved in the  ! U} decision makin] process and Ottawa County emergency activities were coordinated with I,ucas County. 4

The staff, utilizing primary as well as alternate mans of connonication, demonstrated their ability to coordinate with those organizations intended ! (T to provide support to the emergency response. There were tao dedicated l C) telephone systems in use. One system interlinks the utility with the State of Ohio, Ottawa County and Lucas County. The second system interlinks Lucas County with Ottawa County. Comnercial telephone was the primary mans of connonication for the EOC staf f. APIS radios were utilizM as backup to I contact field locations such as reception and congregate care centers and the decontamination station. l The County effectively acted on three protective action recommndations i which included a tivating the siren syst:sn an] by providing emrgency instructions to the public through EBS. In each case airen and EBS activation were coordinated with Lucas County and acconplished within ' I fifteen minutes. The af fectM aress were described in terms of familiar boundaries and landmarks. Appropriate inform tion to evacuees, transients and sheltered populations was provided in tne EBS mssages. Utilizing existing inclemnt weather conditions, experienced during the exercise, the staf f prepared themelves to deal with any impedients which could be experienced while 1,plemnting any conbinstion of protective action recomnendations. The County ensured that mdia releases at the JPIC were coordinated and that . EBS masagas were concise. A runer control system was established in the EOC to respond to inquiries from concerned citizens. Should evacuation occur, the County is able to establish control points to l i

 !q'j   monitor access to the affected areas. Two traffic control points were established in the field during the exercise.

l l The Benton-Carroll-Salem School District and the Caroll Elementary School I participated in alerting and activating their school. evacuation plan. The denonstration included mobilizing and equipping bus drivers to carry out their evacuation procedures. The students at the Caroll School were loaded into their buses. The school facility was secured and a notice left for parents identify the location of their children. An emergency worker decontamination station was denonstrated at the Clay-Genoa Volunteer Fire Departant. The staff denonstrated proficiency in the use of equipment and the procedures for the decontamination of emrgency workers and their vehicles. The corrective action for a weakness from the previous exercise was denonstrated and the weakness did not recur. A Mid-County EMS anbulance crew demonstrated the equipent and procedures for effectively handling a contaminated injured individual. The anbulance crew was well trained and properly equipped. I In a separate malcal drill coMucted on Septeter 11, 1986, the Em rgency_ Room staff of the Frenont Menorial Hospital in Fremn demonstrated the facilities and procedures for handling a contaminated injured individual. The hospital staff were knowledgeable of their responsibilities and capably denonstrated the treatmnt and decontamination of the patient. A Carroll n

 ,   i  Township EMS anbulance cres denonstrated the equipmnt and procedures for L/    ef fectively ham 11ng a contaminated injured iMividual. The anbulance crew was well trained aM properly equipped.

Officials at the Ottawa National Wildlife Refuge, the Crane Creek State Park and the Crane Creek Wildlife Experi mnt Station were interviewed during the '

    ; exercise. Message logs irdicated that notification had been receivei from V( ' both the Ottawa County Sheriff and the ODSA during the ALERT classification as per the plan. The Officers-in-Charge had SOP mnuals and personal dosim try kits. They were knowledgeable of the necessary protective actions and had received appropriate training. Public instructions would be provided by various mans including bullborns, boats and public addresa systems in vehicles.

Emrgency workers performing tasks in the field were checked to see if . adeguato procedures were inplemento3 to provide them with adequate personal dosimtry. Dosim try kits contained the appropriata dosimetry and emergency workers dere aware of their responsibility to report hourly readings to the responsible officials. In the absence of the final State procedures for the use of KI and a supply of KI, Ottawa County simuleted the issuance and administering of KI by ewrgency workers when instructed to do so by the State. Although it was not an exercise objective the executive group as wil as ,, interested staf f remined in ene Eoc af ter conpletion of the exercise to discuss the procedures they may anticipate while inplemnting recovery and reentry procedures. They discussed procedures for returning their connunity to a normal condition as quickly as possible while ensuring that the health and welfare of the af fected population was well cared for. Erie County (j Erie County servai as a host County for som of the simulated Ottawa County evacuees. As such there were no exercise objectives specifically selected by Erie County. However, the two (2) objectives related to the relocation and congregate care centers selected by Ottawa County were also evaluated in Erie County. No deficiencies or areas requiring corrective action were identified. Two (2) recommndations for improvemnt are offered for consideration by Erie County as well as other host Counties. The Erie County EOC was activated following receipt of the SITE AREA EMERENCY notification from Ottawa County. The responsibility of the E00 l staf f was to coordinate emrgency services (law enforcement, fire and ! rescue) and facilitate the activation aM operation of the reception and congregate care centers. Telephones and radios were the primry means of comnanication between the Erie County EOC and the field locations as well as l Ottawa County. Once the Erie County EOC was activated, the E00 staff placed appropriate reception and congregate care center personnel on stanSoy. The reception center was located at the SaMusky High School and the congregate care i center at the Jackson Junior High School. These two facilities were i activated within one hour of the receipt of the GNERAL EMERGEtCY notification. Sidulated evacuees were nonitored, decontaminated, as appropriate, and registered at the relocation center and then transported to the congregate tcI V care center. The congregate care facility was adequate to house the 200 evacuees as stated in the plan. The facility was laid out with a nursing 6

I station, kitchen facilities, recreation area, sleeping areas, shower and

   ~

toliet facilities, and sepsrate areas for mathers with infants and people ( with illnesses. The staf f con 3 acting the activities at both centers were V) knowledgeable of their emergency responsibilities and demonstrat+3 a high level of training as they ef fectively carried out their assignents. It is recomended that JPIC news releases be routinely distributed to the host Counties, either to the EOC or directly to the congregate care centers. This informtion would be of interest to evacueen and useful for the handling of rumr control at the care centers. There were significant periods of inactivity in the EOC and following iield demnstrations during the exercise. it is recomended that the controllers inject " free play" activities to drive actions by the staf f during these  ; perio3s and that consideration be given to terminating field activities once the objectives have been demnstrated and the evaluation at that location is=

• conplete.

Lucas County Lucas County selected twenty-four (24) cojectives to be demonstrated duriny the exercise. All of the objectives were soccessfully demonstrated by Lucas County, No deficiencies or areas requiring corrective action were identifled. Four (4) recomendations for inprovemnt are offered for cunsideration by Lucas County. Partial mobilization of the Lucas County EOC staf f began when the DBNPS informd the Lucas County Sherif f's dispatch center that an UNOSUAL EVENT p), C had occurred. Partial activation of the EOC began following receipt of the ALERT notification f rom the utility. Conpletion of the EO: activation occurred after receipt of the SITE AREA EMERGENCY notification. The EOC was j fully staffed with around the clock staffing capability demonstrated by presentation of a roster of replacemnt staff. The Lucas County EOC Executive Group consists of the thrd: Lucas County Board of Comissioners, the Lucas County Sheriff, the Lucas County Disaster Services Director, arr3 a Jerusalem Township Trustee. The Mayors of the ' Cities of Oregon and Toledo are optional mmbers of the Lucas County Executive Group. The President, Lucas County Board of Comissioners, was effectively in charge of Lucas County actions. The EOC staff were involved in the decision mking process and Lucas County emergency activities were coordinated with Ottawa County. It is recommnded that the EOC staff he mare involved in m king presentations of their key response activities during E00 briefings. The newly developed EO: is located in the sub-basemnt of the Lucas County Correctional Facility in Toledo. This facility is spacious, well lighted with suf ficient amnities to support emrgency staf f for an extended period of time. Classification levels were posted, status boards were mintained and all of the appropriate mps and displays were posted. , 7 p V s

There were two dedicated telephone system in use. One system interlinks the utility with the State of Ohio, Ottawa County and Lucas County. The , second system interlinks Lucas County with Ottawa County. Comercial d(7 telephone was the primry means of comunication for the E00 staf f. ARES radios were utilized as backup to contact field locations such as reception and congregate care centers an3 the decontamination station. County Sheriff's dispatch center radios provide a mans of backup comunication, not all of the planned radio system are currently installed. They are scheduled for installation in the near future. There was a har6 copy datafax capability to the JPIC, Ottawa County and the State E00. Lucas County considered both the utility and the State protective action recomendations and cther factors such as plant status, evacuation time estimates an:3 weather in formulating the protective actions taken by the County. Three protect Ive actions to shelter and/or evacuate people and shelter livestock were irqplemntei by the County during the exercise. The County initiated action to promptly alert and notify the public of protective action recommndations three tims during the exercise. In each case siren and EBS activation were coordinated with Ottawa County and accomplished with fifteen minutes. The affected areas ware described in terms of f amiliar boundaries and landerks. Appropriate information to evacuees, transients an! sheltered populations was provided in the EBS messages and the news releaseu at the JPIC. The EOC staff determined the appropriate traffic and access control points for each protective action recoinendation. One access control point was o mnned by the Sherif f's Department. The deputy was knowledgeable about his Q duties, evacuation routes and the location of t.he reception and congregate care centers and the decontamination station. He had the aporopriate dosimtry and was knowledgeable about its use, reporting requirements and the m ximum allowable exposure levels. Each agency had a Dosimtry Coordinator who mintains a written record of ' their workers' radiological exposure. Each emrgency worker was instructed to provide hourly reports of exposure to his Dosimtry Coordinator. The Dosim try Coordinators were instructed to contact the Lucas County Radiological operations Officer only if readings reached 1, 5 or 15 rads 4 I It is recommnded that each Dosimtry Coordinator provide periodic status reports to the Radiological Operations Officer so that he can monitor em rgency worker exposure levels and ensure that etfective monitoring is being acconplished. In the absence of the final State procedures for the use of K1 and a supply of KI, Lucas County simulated the issuance and administering of KI by , emrgency workers when instructed to do so by the State. A simulated traffic obstruction on SR2 was handled by the E00 staff. Traffic was routed around the obstruction until its simlated removal by the . Ohio National Guard. I

A list of mobility impaired individuals is maintained by the Jerusalem l l fs Township Fire Departm nt. Transportation for the simulated evacuation of the mobility impaired individuals was provided by the Regional Emergency (V\ Medical Services of Northern Ohio (REMSNO).

(d Superintendent, the Transportation Director and the Businass Manager of the Oregon School System, the principals of the two schools and a bus driver. It is recomended that the nam of the Dosimtry coordinator and the policy that nomroom teachers acconpany their students be specified in the SOPS. Following receipt of the SITE AREA FS RGEtCY notification the EOC staff placed appropriate reception and con:jregate care center and decontamination station personnel on standby. Activation of these facilities was initiated . af ter receipt of the GENERAL EMERGENCY notification and were fully activated i within an hour. The City of Oregon Fire Departwnt an3 Lucas County Humn Services demnstrated the procedures for radiolo]ical mnitoring, decontamination and t registration of a simulated evacuee at the reception center which was located at the Eisenhower Junior High School in Oregon. The staff conducting these activities were knowledgesble of their duties and demnstrated the capability to carry out their assignmnts reflecting a high level of prior training. The radiologient monitoring stafd was equippM with personal dosim try and were knowledgeable about its use. Once registered evacuees would be transported to a congrejste care center by bus. One such facility was demnstrated at the Clay High School in Oregon which was staffed by the Red Cross. The facility had access to sufficient resources to handle the 230 sinulatM evacuees. The staff was knowledgeable fm of their emrgency responsibilities. An emrgency worker decontaminstino section was demonstrated at the Jerusalem Township Fire Departa nt. The appropriate resources for decontamination of personnel and vehicles are maintained at this facility. . The staff demnstrated proficiency in the use of equipent and the procedures for the decontaminstion of two e m rgency workers and one vehicle. The Jerusalem Township Fire Departmnt also demnstrated the equipment and ! procedures to handle and transport a contaminated . injured individual. The t anbulance crew was well trained and properly equipped. They demonstatrei j the capability of establishing comunications with the appropriate hospital, the Lucas County EOC and a traffic control point. In a separate medical drill, the Emrgency Room staff of the St. Charles Hospital in Oregon demonstrated the facilities and procedures for handling a l contaminated injured individual. The hospital staff were knowledgeable of their responsibilities and capably demonstrated the treatent and decontamination of the patient. The Lucas County public informtion liaison in the EOC coordinated informtion with the Lucas County PIO at the JPIC. Rumor control activities were also coordinated with the Lucas County pIO at the JPIC. A rumor control statino was established in the EOC and its telephone nunber announced over EBS, in news releases and at JPIC briefings. The Lucas County PIO demonstrated adegaate training and knowledge of his duties. He ln) U ef fectively coordinated informtion with the other spokespersons at the JPIC and participated in all of the JPIC briefings. 9 I

The first joint exercise was on Novenber 5,1980 and involved full participation by both the State of Ohio and ottawa County. The second joint exercise for the State and Ottawa County was on April 13-14,983 and involved a partial participation by the State of Ohio and full participation by Ottawa County. The third joint exercise was July 16, 1985 and involved full participation for the State and Ottawa County. Sandusky County demonstrated their capability to serve as a host County for evacuees. This report addresses.the most re m nt March 31, 1987 joint exercise involving partial participation for the Stata of Ohio and full participation for Ottawa and Lucas Counties. Erie County demonstrated their capability to serve as a host County for evacuees.

2. Participating and Non-cargelpating State and Local Governments -

The 20-mile plume exposure EPZ of the Davis Besse Nuclear Power Station imacts prinarily on Ottawa County. It also impacts on a portion of p Jerusalem Township within Lucas County and a portion of Lake Erie. The ig exercise was partial participation for the State of Ohio and full participation for Ottawa and Lucas Coontles. Erie County participated by activating their IOC, a reception center and a congregate care center. l 3. List of Evaluators i For this exercise there was a total of sixteen (16) federal evaluators observing offsite exercise activities. Onsite activities were evaluated by a separate team from the Nuclear Regulatory Comnission (NRC) . The offsite federal evaluation team was conposed of seven (7) evaluators from FEMA,- two (2) from the Environmental Protection Agency -(EPA), one (1) from the Depar tnent of Energy (DOE), one (1) from the Departnent of Agriculture (USDA) and five (5) from the Center for Planning and Research (CPR) which provides contract support to FEMA for exercise evaluation.

4. Evaluation Criteria The plans that were evaluated by this exercise were developed using the

      " Criteria for Preparation ard Evaluation of Radiological Emrgency Response -

Plans and Preparodness in Support of Nuclear Power Plants" (ti) REG-0654/ FEMA  ; REP-1, Revision 1) . Therefore, these criteria and the madoles based on these criteria entitled, " Modular Format for Uniformity of Radiological  : p) ( Em rgency Preparedness Exercise Observations and Evaluation," dated June 1983, were used for exercise evaluation.

5. Exercise Objectives The objectives selected by the State of Ohio and Lucas, Ottawa and Erie  !

Counties are listed in Attachm nt 1.

6. Sunmary of Scenario

      'Ihe Davis Besse Nuclear Power Station radiological eurgency preparedness exercise objectives and scenario for the March 31, 1987 partial participation joint exercise were developed by exercise planners f com the Davis Besse Nuclear Power Station and the State of Ohio Disaster Services Agency. The exercise planners did not participate in the exercise and            ,

protected the scenario from the participants'of the exercise so they would ' l not be aware of the scenario events. FEMA Region V conducted discussions with the utility and State planners to select the objectives and determine the scope of the exercise. During the , pre-exercise scenario development period it was decided to emphasize the alerting, mabilization and activation of staff and not enphasize or evaluate  ; the recovery and reentry portion of the exercise. Review of previous exeycise weaknesses was nude by FEMA Region V and the scenario writers in order to develop a scenario that would allow for the demonstration of ' corrective actions for past exercise weaknerses as well as allow for the (q m) a demonstration of the objectives selected by the exercise participants. 12 4

s submission of the scenario was according_to deadlines outlined in NRC and FEMA guidelines. Idaho National Engineering Laboratory reviewed the offsite portion of the scenario for FEMA and found it ta be adequate to exercise the (mv)WAceted by the State of Ohio. The exercise scenario is included with this cbjectives selected by Ottawa, Lucss and trie Counties as well as those exercise report as Attach m nt 2. The exercise events followed the pre-exerciso scenario. The UlfdSUAL EVENT was declared at 0655, the ALERT at 0803, the SITE APIA P.MSRGENCY at 1106 and the GENEPAL EMERGEtCY at 1309. The Governor of Ohio declare 3 a State of Emergency at 1120. Recovery and reentry was not an objective selected to be denonstrated during the exerclae and thsrefore was not evaluated. The simulated accident at the Davis Besse fuelent Power Station resulted in both sheltering and evacuation protective action recommndations as well as recom?n3ations for dairy animain.

7. State and Local Resources Planned to be Used_in the Exercice The Ohio Disaster Services Agency in coordination with the Ohio Departw nt of Health an3 the Ohio Environmntal Protectiod Agency planned to staf f and denonstrate their espabilities for connunications, dose assessamnt and public Nformtion at the State EOC in Worthington; the JPIC and the ECC at the plant site; fleid mor.itoring teams; the connunications van; and milk sampling.

Ottawa County planned to deconstrate its EOC; staffing at the JP!C; traf fic control; school evacuation; mMical support (Mid-County EMS anbulance); and G a decontaminstion center. The County also chose to demnstrste its Q capability (simulate 3) to activate the provt alert and notifiestion systems, the emergency broadcast system, and evacuate a part of the 10-mile EPZ. A separate mMical support drill was conducted on September 11, 1986 for the Frenont Hospital. Erie County planned to denonstrate its EOC; a reception center; and a congregate care center. Lucas County planned to denenstrate its EOC; staf fing at the JPIC; traf fic control; school evacuation; edical support (Jerusalem Township Fire Departmnt aabulance and St. Charles Hospital); a reception center; a congregate care center; and a decontamination center. The County also chose to demonstrate its capability (simulated) to activate the pronpt alert and notification systeas, the emergency broadcast system, and evacmte a part of the 10-mile EPz.

8. Exercise Findings in Past Exercises There were no deficiencies noted for the State _ of Ohio and Ottawa County during the radiological eergency preparedness exercise of July 16, 1985.

There were two (2) areas requiring corrective action identified, one each for the State of Ohio arr3 Ottawa County. Both of the areas requiring coqrective action have been corrected. The Ottawa County corrective action (NUREG-0654 criteria item K.3.b) was successfully demonstrated during this exercise an3 the State of Ohio corrective action (NUREG-0654 criteria .. em n) 4 v J.11) was demonstrated during the Noveaber 1986 full participation exercise. 13 (

l Narrative , [ 1. State of Ohio

• Activation and Staffing i

This was a partial participation exercise for the State of Ohio, with only ' the comunications, dose assessmnt and public information sections being ' fully staffed. The State has a direct comanication link with the utility which is mnitored on a 24-hour basis. There was a call received from the utility informing the State EOC staff of a potential problem at the plant. We call was verified by a call back to the utility. Upon receipt of the ALERT classification, ODSA initiated activation l procedures for the dose assessm nt room. O'rganizations notified and  !! subsequenty reporting included ODSA, ODOH and OEPA. Around the clock j staffing was demnstrated by the presentation of a roster. The dose. t assessmnt room was completely staffel at 3356, with the balance of the E00 conpletely operational by 1130. A printed call list is used to notify the staf f of an incident at- the plant. Il ODSA is unable to contact somone by telephone a pager system is i utilized. The ODSA, ODOH, OEPA, Governor's representative and Toledo Edison liason were present in the E00 during the exercise. Som of the positions. were dotble staf fed to demnstrate the capability for 24-hour operations. A

• roster was presented to verify capability for the remainder of the ,

positions. "he State dispatched a person to the ECC to serve as a liaison between the ECC and the State E00. The State's JPIC staff were also V dispatched from Worthington. The ODSA fleid mnitoring team were mobilized at the EOC in Worthington. The OEPA teams were mobilized in Bowling Green. Both groups were already at-their routine work stations when activated. A system also exists to mobilire them from home. Mobilization was pronpt and efficient with both agencies' teams assenbling at the Fremont Airport. Upon arrival the teams reviewed their equipment boxes against checklists and were briefed on plant conditions. Three joint ODSA and OEPA teams were formd and dispatched to the field for sanple collection. Emergency Operations Management r The ODSA Deputy Director was in charge of the operations. Most of the. r activity took place within the dose assessmnt room and the comnunications room. The dose assessmnt staf f were updated as the mssages were received

                                                                      ~

over the radio through the use of an in-house radio. When a masage was , received the lead person in the radio room would contact a person.in the ' ansessent room and relay the mssage. Msed on plant condition, data received by the State's field mnitoring team and predetermined protective actions associated with classification levels the dose assessment group mde , protective action recomm ndations. Nssage logs were kept by the connunications and the dose assessmnt , l /~N sections. There were avle people present for the purpose of essage' i handling. The State E00 was notified of the ALERT at 0807, SITE AREA h E.'ERGENCY at 1107 and GENERAL EMERGEtCY at 1313. l 15 *

i At the SITE AREA EMERGENCY, the State EOC initiated notification calls that included the DOE Radiological Assistance Program in Chicago. They requested field monitoring teams, mabile labs and when tim permitted, the entire  ; ([],/ FR%C. The State of Ohio also requesta3 administrative support from FE% Facilities The State EOC faellities have been demonstrated on several ocesssions. They are functional, well maintained and provide an ef fective work aren. The room used for dose assessmnt activities es fully equipped to perform the functions assigned. All required maps wara either posted or imediately , available. Status boards were mintaine3 win current information on actions by the Counties and the utility. A microcoguter was available to  ; perform dose assessmnt calculation. This microcomputer also contained a data base that was useful for making protective action recommndations. The ECC is located in a secure are'i of the DBNPS Administration Building. We wall space is usM for visant displays showing plant conditions that are visible from most positions in the ECC. The displays are continuously ' uylated as new information is available. The State and Ottswa County liaisons had full access to all displays and consultations with utility egloyees. Briefings were conducte3 in the ECC following. any significant changes in conditions. Comunications The primary EOC comunications nystem was the telephone (dedicated or p commrcial) with radio as backup. The comunications system between the ECC , g and the State EOC consisted of a dedicated telephone, two-alternate telephone exchanges and the ODSA radio net. The dedicated telephone was T used to link the State EOC dose assesse nt area with the ECC and the radiological analysis area at each County EO . This system was continously t monitored during the exercise. I We Federal agencies can be contacted by telephone with radio and telefax as backup. The E3S station can be contacted by telephone with the ODSA radio , net as backup. The primry comunications system to the JPN was telephone I wnich included datafax capability. The ODSA radio net e.ad the ECC comunications system can provide backup comunicatior.s to the State EOC. We State EOC staf f were able to comunicate with the field mnitoring team through the use of the ODSA radio net. The person directing radiological field mnitoring teams had a partable radio _ link to the main radio dispatchers. However, should a problem arise, the radio dispatcher and field team dispatcher were located only 20 feet apart. 1 Field teams mintained constant contact with the comunications van which in turn maintained contact with the State EOC. Comu'11 cations were effective, although one field team experien:Jed a dead spot utilizing a hand held radio. This problem was easily overcom by moving away from the imediate arqa of the dead spot. The comunications van had sufficient capability to mintain full radio comunications, provide backup comunications equipment to the field teams and provide radio maintenance service in the field. n 16

Dose Assessmat and Protective Action Recomnendatons /9 The ODSA and the OEPA staff share 3 radiological monitoring responsibilities V with ODSA taking air samples and OEPA taking soil, vegetation and water

• samples. Personnel from each agency asse.-bled with all the necessary equipment to perform their assigned tasks. The field vehicles were large j enough to handle all equipment and staff and operated well, even in a mjor snow storm on day of the drill. % 1 cast one team menber was very familiar with the region and used a '.ocal mp well to find collection points.

Collectively, the staf f had all of the required radiation instrumentation , with recent calibrations. Equipent was checked for operability at the tim  ! of ectivation and assenbly. A radioactive check source is part of the ODSA , field kit. Both the ODSA and OEPA teams had SOPS and seened well trained in the use of the SOPS. Air, soil, vegetation and surface water sample collection was demonstrated, , including adequate collection procedures for radioicr$1nes. ODSA  ! demanstrated their ability to collect air samples on filters and cartridges with generator-driven air samples. ODSA used a portable generator to drive > the ah synpler. This required setting both on potentially contaminated ground. OEPA demonstrated their sbility to collect vegetation, surface water and soil camples. Snow collection could have been demonstrated, but- i this assignmnt was not made by team controllers as the exercise scenario ' meteorology did not include snow. Therefore an opportunity to demonstrate this skill was missed. The OEPA team put equipment, sagle bags and containers on the potentially contaminated ground while collecting and (3 packaging samples. Atter co gleting the sampling the team changed (~) contaminated booties at the back nf the ' ruck but then walked over potentially contaminated ground to enter the vehicle. , Area Recomiended For Imorovement: The State of Ohio should review its radiological monitoring training an3 procedures to determine if they should be revised to reduce the potential for contamination of equipment. For exa gle, an air samler taking a smaller sa mle and running off the van . i battery might reduce potential contamination problems, sanple containers might be lef t in the van until needed, team menbers could work in unison to-keep containers off the ground while collecting samles, and all staff should be fully aware of the need to limit contamination of their-vehicle. Field survey of samples for ganma and ganma/ beta radiation was conducted. A , multi-purpose survey instrum nt, the PRS-1 RASCAL, was used to conduct the survey. This instumnt uses multiple probes calibrated on separate , voltages. The instrument was adjusted for use in the field for dose rate (mr/hr) calculations. The voltage settings and other parameters which are labelled on each probe were adjustel as appropriate when the probes were ' changed. Most of the readings were taken as count rates (counts / minute) and were subsequently converted to dose rates at the State EOC. This reflected a recent nodification to the operating procedures for the use of the various probes which eliminates the need for adjusting the internal instrument settings. However, these modifications are not detailed in the SOPS. fm Area Recommended For Improvement: The field monitoring SOPS should be. updated to incorporate the recent m>31fication to the operating procedures (b) of the molti-purpose survey instrumnt. 17 w

Sa@les were consolidated in one van, transported to the airport for screening by ODOH staff, transferred to an Ohio National Guard helicopter,  ; and flown to Colus us for laboratory analysis. Screening procedures were  ! [] (y adequate. However, a helicopter crew meter reported that their orders prevent them from carrying any radioactive samples in their aircraf t. The i tim required to collect sa@les and start them to Colutus for laboratory analysis appeared to be reasonable. Area Requiring Corrective Action: (NUREG-0654 criteria item H.12) The  : procedures for the transport of field monitoring samles should be reviewed j with personnel of the Ohio National Guard to ensure that all crew menbers , are fully aware of their radiological emergency responsibilities. . For the most part, protective' action recomendations were made using plant , conditions and release rates supplied by the utility. A co@ uter data base , with tim evacuation studies and population distribution was used to assist in making protective action recomen3ations. Based on release rates and calculations that showed there was a potential to exceed 25 REM thyroid, the State recormended emergency workers an3 institutionalized individuals within.the plume EPZ take K1 based on its draft policy. This current draf t policy is that KI will not be issued to the general public. The State does have adequate supplies of KI but have not yet distributed KI to the Counties and all State agencies pending actions by the State's legal body. Thus the procedures for t'.)e distribution r of KI could not be fully denonstrated. > _ Area Requirina Corrective Actiont (NUREG-0654 criteria items J.10.e and (j J.10.f) The State of Ohio should finalize its draft KI policy and demonstrate its implenentation during their next full participation radiological energency preparedness exercise. Public Alerting and Instruction - Public alerting and instruction is a County function. However, the State of ~ Ohio did demonstrate the ability to provide timely protective _ action reconmendations to the Counties. For example the initial reconuendation from the utility was received by the State at 1107 with the recomendation ! going to the Counties at 1115 and the Counties simulating the activation of l the sirens and EBS at 1126. Protective Action Based on release rates provided by the utility (and later confitned by field team deposition measurements) the ODOH used plume dispersion models to make ! reconmendations to dairy farmes to place their animals on stored feed and-non-surface water supplies. An extensive data base with farm location, , ! owner and telephone nuser was available to the ODOH for implementing-the - recomnenda tion. A. milk sa@ ling team from the Northwest District Office by the ODOH l demonstrated milk sampling procedures during the exercise. This team perforned their sa@ ling procedures in a tim?ly and effective nenner. The g) V team deployed to the Ottawa County EOC at the ALERT classification level. 18

     'Ibe team was equipped with the necessary sampling tools and demonstrate 3 professional samling mthods during the milk samling period. Operating procedures and maps were available, and the team used a checklist during the

[] V sampling procedare. The sanple was takan to the Fremont Airport for transport to the State laboratory. Area Recomended For Inprovement: The milk samling team should be provided with a two-way radio to facilitate communications in the event quick cortmunication from or to the State or Counties is n?cesssey. Radiological Exposure Control The individual responsible for directing the field monitoring teans nonitored each team menber's individual expnsure. Field teams carry adequate protective equipment an3 were generally knaale3geable on how to use it. The field teams had a full range of pocket dosimeters with changers and-carry TLDs. Fleid team mabers carry dosimter records, ar? familiar with reading procedures, know authorized exposure limits, and know procedures for decontamination. OEPA staff had KI while ODSA and ODOH staf f did not. The issue over the use of KI has not been resolved for ODSA and ODOH staf f. Presently one agency is allowed to carry and use KI inile the other agency cannot. As discussed above, this problem is an area tequiring corrective action by the State of Ohio. The milk sanpling team had the proper attire and dosim try equip e nt for Q radiological exposure control. The team was knowledgeable in the use of

   /  dosimters and keeping record cards.

Media Relations The Public Inforetion Officer was stationed in the State E00 with a counterpart located in the JPIC. If the need arose there was a large briefing room located within the aranry complex. The necessary maps were ' available for uso during a briefing session, however during this exercise there was no mdia present. They also had a mdia information packet available for the press. The JPIC was located in the DBNPS Administation Building. Because of its i proximtry to the site, an alternate JPIC location has been established at ! the Toledo Edison corporate office in downtown Toledo. During the exercise a simulated JPIC relocation to this facility was iglemente3. Area Recomiended For Inprovement: The alternste JPIC location at the Toledo , Edison corporate of fice in downtown Toledo should be demonstrated during a-futuro radiological emergency preparedness joint exercise. , The JPIC has suf ficient space and resources to support the operations of the various Pios and the mala. There were appropriate mps arx3 displays available to support the media briefings. A separate room was designated as a PIO briefing coordination room. Before each nedia briefing, the State, ' p County and utility PIDs would neet to discuss the mterial to be presented and the sequence for presentation. This resulte3 in effectively coordinated , i}

 '    briefings.

19

Six (6) nedia briefings were presented during the exercise with each PIO actively involved with the briefing. Because of the weather conditions and i the diverse travel distance for the various Pios, only the utility and  ! b[3 Ottawa County Pios were present for the first briefing. The Lucas County PIO arrived in time for the second briefing and the State P10 was present by the third briefing. I Periodic news releases, twenty-four (24) in all, were prepared and distributed f rom the JPIC. These news taleases were also well coordinated , prior to their issuance. In addition to previding general information, these news releases reinforced the instructions given to the public via EBS- . by including the EBS messages. < Rumr control was also established at the JPIC. The various telephone nunbers for the utility, State and County rumor control staf f were released at the JPIC both verbally during briefings and in the nea3 releases. The .; JPIC rumor control staff was effective in coordinating responses to simulated calls from the public. Recovery and Reentry , Recovery and reentry were not selected as cojectives for this exercise. Scenario The scenario was adequate to allow the State of Ohio to fully demomstrtate-its objectives consistent with their partial participation.

2. Ottawa County Q(~T [

Activation and Staffing . The Ottawa County Sheriff dispatch center was advised of an UNUSUAL EVENT at the DBNPS at 3654 by the utility. The incident at the utility detoriated and by C803 an ALERT was declared. The Executive Group had responded to the EOC by this tie and were briefed on the situation. Meanwhile, tne i operational staff of the EOC were being activated. The Ex<:eutive Group, consisting of the County Cx missioners, the County Engiover and the County DSA Director, took charge of the response as a well organized body and responded professionally to the various situatinns which arose during the entire exercia-i. The manner in which this group m thodically considered their method ot response in a timely manner was inpressive. The operational staff which basically supports the executive staff in providing the necessary support for the various organizations they represent were in place by 1135. They displayed the ability to provide the resources required by the eergency on a continuous basis by ensuring that qualified staff mabers would be available around the clock. This was acconplished over all by double staf fing an3 by presentation of a roster of personnel who could be relied upon to continue this support. l 20 ( v 1

i Em rgency Operations Mana3e m nt

 /   'T The Ottava County Board of Comnissioners supported by the County Engineer C)     and the County DSA Director provided effective commad and control of the omrgency response procedures. Initial as well as periodic briefings were conducted to keep the executive and operational staffs aware of the irportant events of the emrgency. Realistic emrgency sitaations were introduced to these staffs throughout the exercise to test their ability to respond to ininor emrgency events which could adversely affect their overall response to the energency. The staf f responded to these variei proble:n       ,

effectively. Message handling was efficiently done and faciliated the ability to keep the staf f informed of the events in a timly manner. The County contacted the Governors office and secure 3 the support of the Ohio Army National Guard. This was accomplished at 1126 during the SITE AREA EMERGENCY classification. Facilities The EOC has five principal work aress. These are the Executive Group roo.n, the Accident Assessment room, the Infore tion and Rumor Control room, the Comnunications room and the Operations roan. Each room is adequately lighted, supplied with the necessary furniture and telephones. Sleeping areas, showers and limited kitchen facilities are available in adjacent areas. Emtgency power is available and was deronstrated during the o exercise. Maps showing the plume EPZ, with sectors labeled and energency action s.bareas color coded are posted in each of the principal work aress. (-) Also available and used are m ps showing evacuation routes, relocation centers, access control points, radiological tronitoring points and population by evacuation areas. Status boards are hung in each of the work areas and are kept up-to-date on significant events. The emtgency action classification level was posted throughout the EOC and kept currect at all tims. Comnunications The County demnstrated their primry and alternate mans of comnunicatincj with all the organizations intended to provide support to the emrgency response. These comnonication links proved to be effective and enabled the county to coimunicate with the JPIC, State and surrounding Counties, as well as those support organizations within the County. The system utilized included dedicated telephone, commrcial telephone, County and ARES radios and telefax. Conferencing capability was available on these lines. Hsrd copy capabiltiy was available and was generally reliable and reasonably rapid. Dose Assessnunt and Protective Action Recortrendations The State of Ohio developed dose projections and provided them to Ottawa County along with any protective action recomiendations. Ottawa County considered both utility and State protective action recanendations prior to mking a decision concerning protective actions primrily for the plume [-v } pathway (10-mile EPZ) . Ottawa County considered such factors as the reported plant status, evacuation tim estimtes, and weather. 21

Prior to and during this exercise a snow storm occurre3 in the exercise area that if this had been a real accident would have to have been considered. G Ottawa C Sunty during this exercise did consider real weather conditions and ; V bad weather as part of the considerations during the second protection action recomendations to shelter stbareas 1 and 2, as reconmended by the t utility, rather than evacuate as racomende3 by the State of Ohio. Throughout the exercise protective action reconmndations were pronptly reviewed an3 updated as conditions changed. Protection action reconnendations were coordinated with Lucas County in each instance. At 1359 the State of Ohio made the decision to issue KI to eergency workers and to those people (institutionalizei) that could not be evacuated from the affected area. This is consistent with the recent change in the State of Ohio position regarding the use of KI. State draft procedures concerning

    +he use KI have not been finalized and have not been provided to Ottawa County. KI tablets also hwe not been supplie3 to Ottawa County, Ottawa County, in the at sence of State procedures on the use of KI and e supply of KI, simulated the issuance and takin) of K1 tablets by Ottawa Cot nty em rgency workers.

Pubile Alerting and Instruction Public sterting and instruction started for Ottawa County at 1115 when the state concurred with the utility recommadation to close Lake traf fic and to close State and National Parks within the 10-mile EPZ for the DBNPS. The State at that tim also recommnded that lactating animis within two miles of the DBNPS be placed in shelter and fed stored feed ar.d protected water. p The County contactei the EBS station with a prepared m ssage at 1119. This g message was to be broadcast frequently and was designed to provide the public with energency instructions. Activation of the outdoor sirens and the EBS was coordinated with Lucas County. The siren system and the EBS were activated at 1126, well within the 15 minute requiremnt outlined in VJREG 0654/FE% REP-1, Revision 1. Following the GENERAL EMERGENCY, the Executive Group pronptly initiated the protective action recomendations provided to them by the utility which included sheltering subareas 1 and 2, sheltering and placing lactating animis on stored feeJ, mintaining closure of subareas 10 and 12 with , access control estabiished jn subareas 1, 2 and 10. The Executive Group utilized exisiting inclenent weather coMitions and carefully planned and considered evacuation procedures and what inpedim nts they could potentially experience. The EBS and outdocr siren system were activated at 1334 and again at 1358 when the State of Ohio issued additional shelter and evacuation protective action recommndations. Protective Action l The Ottawa County EOC staff contacted the Erie County EOC to coordinate the activation of a reception center and congregate care centers in Erie l County. Communications between the two EO:s was ef fective resulting in a l coordinated response in preparing for Ottawa County evacuees. l 22 p d

Traffic control points were ordered activated at the tim of the GENSC.u EMERGCNCY. The County highway staff indicated that there was enou#, 3 .vguipmnt available in the area to keep the evacuation routes o;r.: during (d bad weather and clear stalled or wrecked vehicles. Actions E ce taken to assure that au roads into the controlled area were closed and that all air, ' water and rail traffic into the area was stopped or rerouted. Lsw enforcement and highway departwnt staf f indicated that there are enough local people, vehicles and other equipmnt to cover .all traffic and access control points simultaneously. No traf fic control points were visited. The personnol at each location had an eergency book that described the evacuation routes and the location of receptioq centers. They wre able to comunicate with their dispatcher by radio. They were both aware of the peocedure for clearing impedimnts and the need to keep the shoulder clear for emergency vehicles.  ; The County Health Departant staf f has a current listing of mobility inpaired individuals living within the risk area. They are aware of the special needs of these people. The hospital representative surveyed the hospitals for n w s, address etc. of recent patient discharges to supplement j

    .the prepared roster. The County fire and rescue teams would provide          i necessary transportation for these people. Their vehicles are equipped with two-way radio. The drivers would be provided with maps of their routes an3  ,

the location of the reception centers. Crews would include a person with  ; wdical training.  ; There is a hospital, two nursing homes and two group hces in the risk n area. Both group homs have their osn vans and would provide their own , transportation. Transportation for the hospital and nursing homs would be  !

 !]  provided by County fire ano. rescue teams, school buses and when available the National Guard.                                                         i The County School Superintendent activated his call down list and notification procedures. School districts outside the EPZ would be dismissed early so the buses from these districts would be available for the evacuation of the risk area. The Superintendent prepared a mssage for transmission to the JPIC and to be included in EBS releases.                .

School evacuation procedures were demnstrated by the Benton-Carroll-Salem , School District. This demnstration occurred the day following the exercise  : because schools were closed due to inclemnt weather on the day of the exercise. The Assistant Superintendent who is also the dispatcher received a simulates call from the County EOC. Following procedures he alerted the schools an$ the bus drivers. The drivers were directed to staging areas where they were provided dosim try and additional instruction concerning > their assigned schools and relocation areas. , Concurrently, the school principal took a head count. This is reported to the district office to assist in assigning buses. When the evacuation order is given (at SITS AREA EMERGBNCY) the students are instructed to return to thpir hom room, get their coats and prepare to board the buses. All , teachers are evacuated with their students. The principal secures the g school leaving a notice for any parent that might com to the school. 23

A decontamination station for emergency workers was established at the Clay-Gonoa Volunteer Fire Departent. The call up of personnel was Q simulated and there " s suf ficient personnel available to mintain arourr3 () the clock operation of the decantamination station. The staff was profielent in their demonstration of egaipe nt and facilities for emergency worker decontamination. The staff demonstrated prior training in the establishmnt of the station, registration procedures, radiological manitoring, and decontamination procedures for both personnel and equipmnt. l The need for decontamination was determined by interrogation and m nitoring for contamination of personnel and mnitoring vehicles for radiological contamination. Proper procedures were demonstrated or well explained. ! Necessary data was recorded and required equipment was used in the decontamination demonstration. The emrgency worker's personal dosimatry was checked and properly bagged for future analysis correcting a weakness identified during the previous exercise. Contaminated clothing is placed in properly marked plastic bags for storage and disposal by che plant at a later tima. W ste water used for decontaminating vehicles flows into

                                                           ~

drainage ditches near the station. Officials at the Ottawa National Wildlife Refuge, the Crane Creek State Park and the Crane Creek Wildlife Experimant Station were interviewed during the exercise. These parks would be closed to the public during an emergency at the DBNPS. Message logs indicated that notification had been received from both the Ottawa County Sheriff and the_ODSA during the ALERT classification as per the pl.an. The Officers-in-Charge had SOP manuals and indicated that i park workers had these mnuals in their radio equipped vehicles. Dosimtry equipment, chargers and TLDs were available as well as record keeping forms. The officers-in-Charge were knowledgeable of the necessary protective actions and had received appropriate training. Some of the park workers had also been trained and others were currently scheduled for training. Public l aseructions would be provided by various maans including bullhorns, boats l and public address systems in vehicles. The Wildlife Refuge official is responsible for notifying visitors on the wildlife trails, the State Park official for swimnars and picnickers, and the Experimant Station official for duck hunters and visitors at the wildlife museus Radiological Exposure Control The County appears to have an adequate supply of mid- and high-range dosimeters, chargers and TLDs. Record keeping procedures and supplies are in place. An instruction sheet is included in each kit. Persons leaving the EOC for areas at risk were also briefed on the procedures to be followed. The workers at the traf fic control points and the school bus drivers were issued kits containing the above eqaipmnt and forms. The four emrgency workers interviewed knew how to read their instruments, when and who to report to, what their maximum allowable dose is and where decontamination centers are located. The Clay-Genoa Volunteer Fire Department also serves as a dosimatty kit

   ,    distribution point. Personnel there checked each dosimatry kit prior to

(' ,Ji ise .nce and verbally explained the use of the dosimetry to emergency workets. Reporting and record keeping requiremnts were also explained. 24

Media Relations No mdia briefings were conducted at the EOC nor were any press releases G mde from the EOC directly to the mdia. Both of these activities are routinely handled at the JPIC but can be done at the EOC before the JPIC has been activated. Material to be released by the County PIO at the JPIC L 3 cleared by the _ Executive Group before release. Hard copy of County releases and all other releases mde at the JPIC were sent to the EOC for general information and - for use by the rumr control staff. . The rumor control function in the EOC was staffed by County enployees. They had the public informtion brochure, copies of all news releases mde from the JPIC and access to the EOC staff to assist them in responding to questions from the public. The staff mnitored radio and TV broadcasts. _ One telephone was available for the rumr control function. The telephone l nunber was released at the JPIC in printed teleases and during briefings. The Ottawa County PIO at the JPIC displayed adequate training and knowledge. He participated in all six briefings. He exchanged information and coordinated releases of information with the other spokespersons at the JPIC, Primry comunication was commrcial telephone with secondary comunications being datafax which also provided hardcopy capability between the Ottawa County EOC and the JPIC. Public instruction to Ottawa County during the shelter protective action e included guidance on sheltering methods (e.g, close windows put cloth over muth when outside, etc.) and it also included instructions for transients without shelter. During the evacuation protective actions, instructions to the public included information on the evacuation of school children. News releases also contained information that was announced over the EBS. Medical Support An anbulance and crew f rom Mid-County EMS demonstrated their capabilty to handle a contaminated injured individual. The amablance crew demonstrated a high level of training in monitoring and care of the simulated contaminated injured victim. They also danonstrated the capability to establish comunications with the hospital while enroute utilizing the REiSNO radio net. The REMSNO radio net reportedly has capability for comun'. cations with local EOCs through the County Sherif f's radio net and all regior al eergency response organizations (i.e., police, fire, anbulance services, mmrgency rescue, etc.) throughout the northern Ohio region. In a separate me31 cal support drill conducted on Septeter 11, b86, a injured contaminated patient was transported from onsite at the DBNPS, by anbulance from the Carroll Township EMS, to the Fremnt Memorial Hospital in Fremont. The hospital's emergency room staff was notified of the accident involving the injured contaminated patient by telephone from utility pegsonnel. Utility personnel advised emergency room staff of the patient's vital signs and that the patient would be enroute to the hospital by anbulance shortly thereaf ter. O 25

to Carroll Township EMS aablance crew demnstrated a high level of training in monitoring and care of the simulated contaminated injured , victim. They also demonstrated the capability to establish cormunications  ! with the hospital while enroute utilizing the REMsto radio net. The receiving area at the hospital was cordoned off by ropes and a pathway protected by herculite. The emergency room staff had all the necessary equipent for radiological nonitoring and decontamination of the patient. We equipment included whole body tray with inlay stretcher, water containmnt barrels, water faucets with hoses, herculite tarp and pl.astic floor runners, dosimters and TLDs, etc. The eergency room staff demonstrated sound procedures in handling the patient, so as to avoid spreading contamination. All radiologically contaminated items are bagged in plastic and would be turned over to the DBNPS for disposal. Recovery and Reentry Although recovery and reentry procedures were not an exercise objective, the Executive Group carried out a discussion relative'to their desire to develop

                                                      ~

j comprehensive planning procedures. I Scenario The scenario provided Ottawa County with anple opportunity to demonstrate  ! all of the objectives selected for demonstration during this exercise.  ;

3. Erie County Activation and Staffing The Erie County EOC was activated following receipt of the SITE AREA EMERGEtCY notification from Ottawa County. This call was received and verified by the Erie County Sherif f's Departmnt. The Sheriff's Departm nt notified the Erie County DSA Coordinator at 1125 who pronptly initiated staf f mobilization procedures utilizing a written call list. The EOC was staffed in approximately thirty minutes with representatives from Erie County Disaster Services Agency, Erie County Human Services, Sandusky School Soperintendent, Sandusky Fire Departnnnt, Erie County Sheriff's Departant, and Erie County Health Departaent. A liaison was also dispatched to the Ottawa County EOC.

The EO' staf f were knowledgeable about their emrgency responsibilities and ef fectively demonstrated their capability to coordinate errergency services (law enforcemnt, fire and rescue) and facilitate the activation and operation of the reception and congregate care centers. Energency OperativG: Qnagennr t The DSA Coordinator was the 11dividual effectively in charge of the EO' operation. He conducted peri'dic briefings and involved the EOC staf f in decision making. Copies of tie plan, procedures and checklists were available and utilized. Message logs were kept and essage handling was efficient. Access to the EOC was controlled by the Sherif f's Department. 26

Facilities . [] The EOC is temporarily housed in the basemnt of the Erie County Services - Building. The facility had sufficient resources to adequately support the V EOC staf f during the exercise. The emergency classification level was posted and an up-to-date status board was maintained with significant events. Maps of the EPZ, evacuation routes, relocation centers and traffic

     <nntrol points were available in the EOC.

Comunications Commrcial telephone was the primary means of comunication between the Erie County EOC ard other locations. Sherif f's Departm3nt radios provided backup comunication capability to Ottawa County. ARES provided radio backup comunication between the EOC and the reception and congregate care centers  ; and the school staff also had portable radios.- Fire Departm3nt radio would provide a comunication link with the anbulances. Other city and County radio system are available to support em3rgency comunications as necessary. Dose Assessm3nt and Protective Action Recommndations These activities are not applicable to Erie County. Public Alerting and Instruction These activities are not applicable to Erie County. p Protective Action ("/ Erie County served as a host County for soma of the Ottawa County evacuees. Once the Erie County EOC was activated, the EOC staff placed appropriate reception and congregate care center personnel on standby. Following receipt of the GENERAL EMERGENCY notification, the reception center at the- , Sandusky High School and the congregate care center at the Jackson Junior High School were activated. These two facilities were fully operational within one hour. The EOC staff considered the expected nuaber of evacuees and the problems which would be encountered in maintaining the orderly flow of evacuees to the reception center especially the inpact of adverse weather l conditions. l The reception center was staffed by representatives of Erie County Human l Services, Red Cross, Salvation Army, Sandusky High School, Sandusky Fire l Departm3nt, Erie County Dog Warden, Erie County Health Department, Sandusky Police Departm3nt, Perkins Township Fire Departin3nt, and ARES. Around the clock staffing capability was evidenced by presentation of a roster of l secono shift personnel. The staff were knowledgeable of their emergency l responsibilites and demanstrated a high level of training as they ef fectively performed their assignmnts. Simulated evacuees were met upon arrival and guided to the monitoring station on a protected pathway. A record of each iMividual's monitoring was kept. If decontamination was necessary the individual was directed to n the appropriate shower area, decontaminated, remonitored aM provided with (') clothing. Appropriate resources for decontamination were available and the 27

estimated value of each person's contaminated clothing and possessions was ' recorded as the material was bagged. Irdividuals were then directed to the () registration tables. -Following registration the evacuees were transported . C/ to the congregate care center. School buses would be utilized to provide this transportation. The congregate care facility was adequate to house the 200 evacuees as stated in the plan. The evacuees were checked for registration cards as they arrived at the center. Those without them would be directed to the reception center for radiological tonitoring and registration. The facility was laid out with a nursing station, kitchen facilities, recreation area, sleeping areas, shower ard toilet facilities', and separate areas for mothers with infants and people with illnesses. The staff was knowledgeable of their emergency responsibilities ard demonstrated a high level of training as they effectively carried out their assignments. Radiological Exposre Control This activity was not applicable to Erie County. - t Media Relations This activity was not applicable to Erie County. However, the federal evaluation team has a recommndation with respect to media relations in host Counties. This recommndation is based on the fact that the information released at the JPIC would be of interest to evacuees and useful for the County is establishing rumor control. C's ) 'j

 \

Area Recommnded For Ir:provement: The State of Ohio =should consider establishing a hard copy data transmission capability between the JPIC or State EOC and the host Counties to facilitate the flow of information. Recoverv ard Reentry When reentry was authorized the EOC staf f discussed the activities necessary for the orderly termination of the congregate care facility. Each agency was requested to review their procedures ard then simulate the commnication of appropriate instructions to their respective field contingents. Scenario The scenario was adequate for Erie County to demonstrate their reception and congregate care activities. It was noted, however, that there were significant periods of inactivity particularly in the EOC and following the field demonstrations. Area Recommnded For Inprovement: The exercise controllers should provide

      " free play" activities during period of inactivity. Another alternative might be to terminate the participation of support agencies once their demonstrations are conplete and their objectives have been ant.

4. Lucas County ,

f'; Activation and Staf fing L) A four-way dedicated telephone system is in place between the DBNPS, ODSA, Ottawa County, and Lucas County. This telephone link is continuously nonitored by the Lucas County Sheriffs Departent's dispatch center. At 0700, the DBNPS informed Lucas County (over the four-way dedicated phone system) of the "JtFJSAL EVENT at the plant. The Lucas County Sheriff's dispatch center staf f, using the telephones an3 pagers, informed appropriate Lucas County officials of the UNUSAL EVEh'T ut the DBNPS. The initial activation of the Lucas County EOC staff was initiated at 0807 when the DBNPS infor i Lucas County of the ALERT condition at the plant. The Lucas County She s dispatch conter staff initiated alerting procedures, using an .qxlated, written call list to mbilize the EOC staff that were to report to the EOC at the ALERT e mrgency classification. The EOC was fully staf fed for the ALERT level by 0930 'and at 1150 for the SITE AREA EMERGENCY classification level. T:e organizations listed in the plan were represented in the EOC. The capability to continue operations over an extended p2riod of time was reflected by a roster of backup (replacement staff) for the EO first shift. Emrgency Operations Managemnt Access to the EOC was established early and mintained throughout the p) t exercise. The President, Lucas County Board of Comissioners was the individual in charge of Lucas County. This is the sam individual that is identified in the County plan. Periodic briefing for the EOC staff were conducted by the President of the Lucas County Board of Comissioner, the Operations officer or the Radiologica1 Officer for Lucas County. The utility representative provided informtion concerning plant status when requested. The staf f were inolved in decision mking but did not make presentations during the briefings. Area Recommnded for Inprovemnt: Lucas County should consider also Tiivolving the EO staff during these periodic briefings to better inform the full EOC staff of the actions being taken by each agency. Appropriate plans, SOP's and/or checklist were available for reference by the EO staff. Message logs were mintained and mssages were reproduced and handled in an efficient mnner, although one zerox machine did m1 function during the exercise. Due to the slow activity of the scenario this did not adversely impact on the exercise play. The Executive Group in the EOC consisted of the three mmbers of the Lucas County Board of Comissioners, the Lucas County Sherif f, the Lucas County Disaster Services Agency Director, and a Jerusalem Township Trustee. The Mayors of the cities of Oregon and Toledo are optional mmbers of the Executive Group but they did not participate in this exercise. One of the Lucas County Comissioners also did not participate due to a business trip out of town. The Executive Group in the EOC kept informd of the situation, (n) coordinated their actions with the State of Ohio, Ottawa County and the DBNPS and effectively managed the Lucas County actions. 29

• Lucas County was notifled of the UNUSUAL EVENT, ALERT, SITS AREA EMERGENCY aM TNERAL EMERTNCY at 0700, 0807, 1115, and 1318 respectively. They concurred with the initial protective action to close traffic on Lake Erie, to close State and National Parks and to shelter lactating animals within two miles of DBNPS.

The utility and the State recomMed slightly dif ferent protective actions at 1321. The utility reco u nded State and local governm nt shelter subarea 1 and 2 and to evacuate subareas 10 and 12. The State recounded subarea 1, 2,10, and 12 be evacuated aM to shelter lactating animals out to 10 miles. The Executive Group decided to adopt the recoendation of the " utility. At 1342 the utility reconmended evacuation of stb areas 1, 2, 3, 10,11, and 12 due to an estinated two hour release starting at 1315. 'Ihe L State of Ohio at 1344 concurred with the utility reconnendation but added l that lactating animals be put in shelter, feed stored feed and protective water out to 10 miles from the DBNPS. The State later changed this distance to 40 miles. The Executive Group concurred with the State protective actions and tcok necessary actions to inplement them, e.g. aer.ivating reception and congregate care centers at 1400. Facilities The EOC is located in the sub-basement of the Lucas County Correctional faellity,1622 Spielbush Avenue, Toledo, Ohio. This newly developed t facility is spacious, well lighted and has sufficient furniture to support  ; the EOC staff. The EOC has 42 telephones with the capability to expand to 50 telephones. These telephones function off a dual (control and centrex) system. This gives the EOC a backup system in the event one of the system goes out of service. Backup power is available but was not demonstrated. Lunk, showers and kitchen support are alsc available to support the EOC staff over an extended period. Food for the EOC staff is from the Sheriff's i Departent kitchen aM/or local purchase. The necessary displays / maps (plum EP2, evacuation routes, relocation, access control, radiological monitoring points, population by evacuation area) are posted in the EOC. The energency classification level is clearly posted and changed to correspond with the changes of the energency classification levels, the status board is clearly visible and it was kept up to date. Comnunications The following is a sumry of the Lucas County comnonications capability: Facility Primary Backup State EOC Dedicated telephone Radio County EOC 2-way dedicated telephone Radio ECC 4-way dedicated telephone Radio EBS Station Telephone Telephone

Unlimited conferencing capability was available on these lines. Backup _ capability is available from both ARES and EOC radio comunications. No hard copy devices were available to the mdia center, which were generally (V9 reliable ad ressonably. rapid. One device did m1 function but did not affect operations. Dose Assessemnt and Protective Action Recommndations The State of Ohio developed dose projections and provided them_to Lucas County along with any protective action recomeMations. As indicated earlier, Lucas County considered both utility and State protective action recomendations prior to mking a decision concerning protective actions - primrily for the plume pathway (10-mile EPZ) . Lucas County considered such factors as the reported plant status, evacuation tim estimates, and weather. Prior to and during= this exercise a snow storm occurred in- the exercise area that if this had been a real accident would have to have been considered. Lucas County during this exercise did consider real weather conditions aM bad weather as part of the considerations during the second protection-action recommndations to shelter subareas 1 and 2, as recomended by the utility, rather than evacuate as recomended by the State of. Ohio. Throughout the exercise protective action recommndations were pronptly reviewed and updated as conditions changed. Protective action recommMations were coordinated with Ottawa County in each instance. At 1359 the State of Ohio made the decision to issue KI to eergency workers and to those people (institutional 1 zed) that could not be evacuated from the affected area. This is consistent with the recent change in the State of (O') Ohio position regarding the use of KI. State draft procedures concerning the use KI have not been finalized and have not been provided to Lucas County. KI tablets also have not been supplied to Lucas County. ' Lucas County, in the absence of state procedures on the use of KI and a supply of > KI, simulated the issuance and taking of KI tablets by Lucas County emargency ' workers. Public Alerting and Instruction Public alerting and instruction started for Lucas County at 1115 when the State concurred with the utility recommMation to closo' Lake traffic aM to close State and National Parks within the 10-mile EPZ for the DBNPS. The State at that tim also recommnded that lactating animals within two miles of the D3NPS be placed in shelter and fed stored feed and protected' water. Activation of the outdoor sirens and the EBS was coordinated with Ottawa County. The siren system and the EBS were activated at 1126, well within the 15 minute requiremant outlined in N'JREG 0654/EEMA REP-1, Revision 1. The EBS and outdoor siren system were again activated at 1334 and 1353 when the State of Ohio issued additional shelter and evacuation protective action recommndations. Ottawa County, after consultation with Lucas County, activates the EBS system. The outdoor siten system within Lucas County can. l be , activated by either Lucas County or Ottawa County. During this exercise l Lucas County simulated the activation of the siren system rathe than have l n Ottawa County simulate this. The actual sounding of the siren system and the EBS system was not requirei for this exercise. l (d' 31 I l l

Prescipted messages were used by Lucas County for use by EBS and the Lucas County spokesperson at the JPIC. ' The protective action areas were described in terms of f amiliar boundaries an3 landerks. Protective Action Evacuation and access control was conducted by activation of traffic control  ! points. Traffic volum was discussed as.well as the effects of bad weather regarding evacuation routes. Access to contacinated areas were blocked and l3 water traffic stopped. Local resources.were considered to be adequate in j terms of personnel and vehicles.

                                                                               ~

A traffic control point was established at the Intersection of Teachout Road and Corduroy by a deputy Sheriff. He was trained an3 familiar with the evacuation routes and location of the reception center and the congregate care centers. He was able to communicate with the County EOC and personnel at other traf fic control points by radio. He received periodic reports and updates over the radio. The County has resources anS arrangemnts with contractors for clearing traffic obstructions and k'eeping a lane clear for emergency vehicles. A listing of 35 mobility inpaired individuals has been identified with the roster maintained by the Jerusalem Townsi.ip Fire Departent. Transportation of these personnel is by REMSNO. Notification to the anbulance drivers is by telephone. It was estimated that there were 20 mobility impaired included in the 230 evacuees. Arrangements were mde for their simulated  ! evacuation. The Oregon School System denonstrated the organizational ability and resources to effect an orderly evacuation of school children through a simulated evacuation of the Jerusalem Elementary School. Though not within the 10-mile EPZ, the school's evacuation is planned as a precautionary masure due to its proximity to the EPZ. Evacuation is authorized by the Superintendent of the Oregon School System, i who is very knowledgeable of his responsibilities. Evacuation of the school is by bus although parental pick-up is considered. There are 55 buses of which 32 are equipped with two-way radios. Ten buses are required for evacuation of the school and at least ten buses were operational. However, in keeping with the exercise plan, one bus was used for demonstration of procedures. The event, which normily would follow GENERAL EMERGENCY, was held mid-morning to facilitate real time use of the bus. The bus was dispatched at 1000 from the Oregon City Schools Transportation Director's office, which has a radio base station. The bus arrived at the Jerusalem Elemntary School at 1010, simulated loading of students and departed for the Eisenhower Junior High School. The driver of the evacuation bus had a copy of the evacuation route to follow, used it correctly and promptly arrived at the prescribed relocation center. The driver was exparienced and knew her responsibilities. In addition to basic and follow-up annual safety training, she had attended the utility's training session for drivers of school buses used in evacuation. Areas surrounding both schools are spacious and traf fic jams are not anticipated. However, SOPS contain procedures to resolve this and police would be called if needed. 32 I

       'Ihroughout the exercise, the SuperinteMent of Schools used comnercial telephone for comnunications with em rgency authorities. The Oregon School (3-   System Business Manager proceeded to the Lucas Coun*v EOC prior .to GNEPAL Ui    EMERTNCY, where he served as liaison. AlternaFL communications would have been by radio.

The Oregon School System has an excellent plan and well-written SOPS which prescribe duties at all e m rgency action levels for the Superintendent and staff, principals, teachers, and school support staff. Area Recomn?nded For- Inprovement: The assignmnt of the Dosimtry Coordinator should be specifically indicated in the plan. The_ Schools Transportation Director is responsible, but this is not- stated in the plan. Additionally, the SOPS for Jerusalem Elemntary School'should clearly state that homeroom teachers will acconpany their students who are evacuated by bus, and that specialty teachers should report to Eisenhower Junior High School to assist in m nagement of the evacuated students. There are currently no mobility inpaired students 'at Jerusalem Elemntary School, but a bus is available for wheel-chair evacuees. The one blind student remins the responsibility of her'homroom teacher, who would assure her evacuation. A reception center for evacuees was established at the Eisenhower Junior High School. Lucas County Humn Services, Oregon School System, Red Cross, Oregon 'Ibwnship Fire Departmnt, Salvation Army, Dog Warden, Police Departmnt, Township Trustee, and Health Departent representatives were all present at the reception center. Duties were assigned as follows: Humn p) Services handled reception and re @ r m on of evacuee; oregon School System han31ed comnunications with ths EOC (telephone with ARES backup) and transportation of evacuees and assisted Human Services; Red Cross handled shelter openings; Oregon Township Fire Departmnt handled contamination mnitoring and decontamination of evacuees and emergency. medical services; l Salvation Army provided refreshm nts for personnel and evacuees and fresh clothing for decontaminated evacuees; the Dog Warden provided for the care of animals; the Oregon Police Department handled traffic control and security; Health Department monitored sanitation; and a Township Trustee served as a liaison for all local problems. 1 l All personnel arrived at the school by 1234 except the Fire Departe nt which arrived at 1300. Notifications were mde from the EOC by telephone with radio as backup. The staff had been through orientation and training by ODSA, the DBNPS and the Red Cross. 24-hour staffing was shown by double staffing and roster, i Simulated evacuees arrived at the reception center at 1400. Upon arrival all evacuees are monitored for contamination. If contaminated they were sent to segregated showers. All evacuees would be decontaminated at this i location and contaminated clothing bagged for disposal. After showering, i the evacuees would be remonitored and provided with clothing or new paper junpsuits to wear. Those still contaminated are registered and sent to St. Charles Hospital. Those decontaminated or not requiring decontamination are assigned to a congregate care center or a place of their own choice. School buses are used to transport evacuees to the care centers.

The Fire Departa nt had two m nitoring teams present for the exercise. Each team could monitor 20 evacuees an hour. They used a CDV-700 to m nitor n evacuees ard were knowledgeable about their duties and the proper mnitoring

    ) procedures.

A congregate care center was located more then 5 miles beyond the pluie EPZ at the Clay High School. The center can accomodate 278 evacuees. TMy have sufficient cots ard blankets, toliets, drinking water, secured storam ard , parking available. The school has enough food on hand for at least two mals. The Red Cross would purchase additional foodstuffs as needed and the school cafeteria personnel would handle preparation ard feeding. The shelter can handle handicapped evacuees. The staff was able to comunicate with the EOC and emrgency medical facilities by telephone with radio as backup. A nurses station was established at the center. The staff was aware of how many evacuees ware expected to arrive. All evacuees would have to have pink slips from the reception center to get in. If they did not have a pink slip they would be sent back to reception center for registration and ' monitoring. A decontamination station for emargency workers was established at the Jerusalem Township Fire Departmant. The staff was proficient in their demanstration of equipmnt and facilities for emrgency worker decontamination. Twenty five (25) radiological monitors are trained and the departmant has an excellent facility equipped with the required decontamination and monitoring equipent. The need for decot tamination was determined by interrogation ard monitoring f) for contamination of personnel ard monitoring vehicles for radiological v contamination. Decontamination procedures were demonstrated by using two personnel and one vehicle (anbulance) . CDV-700-2 mters were used to masure simulated ralloactivity. Proper procedures were demanstrated or well explained. Necessary data was recorded and required equipment was used in the decontamination. Personnel are well trained. It was estimated that 12-15 personnel and 2-4 vehicles can be decontaminated per hour. The wash water used for decontaminating personnel enters a septic tank system and contaminated clothing is placed in properly mrked plastic bags for storage and disposal by the plant at a later tim. The septic tank can also be pumped. Waste water used for decontaminating vehicles flows through a drain to remote " holding" ditches. Radiological Exposure Control The Lucas County EOC is well outside of the 10-mile EPZ of the DBNPS. Therefore it is not necessary for dosimatry equipment to be issued to Lucas County EOC staff. Dosimetry equipm nt, though, was issued to the Lucas County spokesperson assigned to the JPIC when he departed the EOC for the JPIC. Other Lucas County em rgency workers in the field received their dosimatry equipment through one of the following field distribution points: 34 v l 1 l 1 l 1

9. Civil Defense- 5 14 According to the Lucas County Radiological Operations' Officer the supply of

• dosimetry equipm nt is adequate to meet the needs of Lucas County.

Appropriate instructions are part of the dosimtrp kits. Training on dosimeter equipment has been conducted. Emergency worker exposure control is mintained by the emrgency worker calling his departmntal Dosimter-

      . Coordinator who m intains a written record of each emergency worker's exposure. During this exercise the Lucas County Radiological Ope 'tions Officer instructed emargency workers to report their exposure readings to their Dosimter Coordinator each hour and that any exposures of 1, 5, or 15 rads should be reprted to htm by the Dosimeter Coordinator.

l n Area Recomended For Inprovement: Each departmental Dosimeter Coordinator l should provide periodic states reports to the Lucas County Radiological (U) operations officer so that he can m nitor em rgency worker exposure levels l and ensure that effective monitoring is being acconplished. l The deputy Sherif f at the traffic control point had a prepackaged exposure I control kit that included a mid-range dosieter (0-20R), a high-range dosimter (0-200R), a permanent record dosimeter (TLD), and a log. He knew the mximum dose allowed without authorization and followed the proper procedures for reading and recording his dose. He was aware of procedures ' to follow for decontamination and where to go for.a contamination check. He was not supplied with KI. All menbers of the monitoring teams at the reception center had a mid-range  ! i dosimeter (0-20R), a high-range dosimter (0-200R) and permnent record I dosim ter (TLD). They all knew the mximum dose allowed without i authorization and followed the proper procedures for reading and recording l l their dose. 1 Media Relations l No space is set aside for the axila at the Lucas County EOC. The contact l point for the media is the JPIC located at the DBNPS. There was a public l inform tion liaison in the Lucas County EOC to coordinate information between the EOC and the JPIC. The JPIC PIO initially reported to the Lucas County EOC and then departed the EOC at 0848 and arrived at the JPIC at 0955. iO V 35 l'

Tne Lucas County PIO at the JPIC displayed adequate training and knowledge.

       . He participated in five of the six briefings. He exchanged infora tion and coordinated releases of inform tion with the other spokespersons at the n     JPIC. Primary comunication was comercial telephone with secondary

('v) comunications being datafax which also provided hardcopy capability between l the Lucas County EOC aM the JPIC. l Public instruction to Lucas County during the shelter protective action - included guidance on sheltering methods (e.g, cic,se windows put cloth over mouth when outside, etc.) and it also included inscructions for transients [ without shelter. During the evacuation protective actions, instructions to the public included irformation on the evacuation of school children. News releases also contained information that was announced over the EBS. Rumor control was established in the Lucas County EOC to coordinate rumor

               ~

[ control informtion at~ the EOC with the JPIC. The rumor control nmber was announced over EDS, at the JPIC and was also included in written news . releases. Six telephone calls from the public were coordinated by the rumor control staff during the exercise. Approximately 35 other actions were taken by the rumor control staff in the Lucas County EOC to coordinate information. Medical Support An anbulance and crew from the Jerusalem Township Fire Departnent demonstrated their capabilty to handle a contaminated injured energency l worker. The crew has been dual trained in both fire and emergency care procedures. The amublance crew demonstrated a high level .of training in (7 monitoring and care of the simulated contaminated injured victim. Although i U/ the injured worker was not actually transported to the hospital, the ( anbulance crew was aware of the appropriate hospital to handle the victim. l They also demonstrated the capability to establish comunications with the i hospital, the Lucas County EOC and the traffic control points. In a separate medical support demnstration an injured contaminated individual was transported from onsite at the DBNPS, by anbulance from the l Mid-County Emergency Medical Services (Oak Harbor), to- the St.' Charles Hospital in Oregon. Utility personnel notified the hospital's emergency room staff by telephone of the accident involving the injured contaminated patient. Utility personnel advised the energency room staff of the patient's vital signs and that the patient would be enroute to the hospital by anbulance shortly thereaf ter. The energency room staf f comunicated with the anbulance crew and DBNPS health physicist while the anbulance was enroute to the hospital by use of the REMSNO radio net. The REMSNO radio net repottedly has capability for 4 I comunications with local EOCs throughout the northern Ohio region utilizing l the County Sheriff's radio net and all regional enntgency response l organizations (i.e., police, fire, anbulance services, energency rescue, l etc.) Comunications with mngregate care facilities and radiological laboratories (e.g. Radiation Manajenent Corporation) is by comnercial telephone. p 36 t/

The emergency room staf f had all the necessary equipment- for radiological monitoring and decontamination of the patient. 'Ihe equipment included whole body tray wit 9 inlay stretcher, water containment barrels, water faucets (f-~) with hoses, herculite tarp and plastic- floor runners, dosineters and TLDs, etc. The emergency room staff demonstrated sound procedures in handling the patient, so as to avoid spreading contamination. According to the hospital's energency room staff the Radiation Managenent Corporation is the Utility's contractor for radiological laboratory analysis in support of emergency operations. All radiologically contaminated items are bagged in plastic (as denonstrated) and would be turned over to the DBNPS for disposal._ Recovery and Reentry This was not an objective for this exercise.  ; Scenario Inplementation of this approved scenario resulted in an exercise where there -i were significant periods of time when the Lucas County EOC had very few demands placed upon them prior to the ENERAL EMER2tCY and af ter protective actions were taken for the ENERAL EMERTtCY. Area ReconTnended For Inprovement: It is reconnended that either the ' scenario be designed to keep the EOC staff busy or controller messages should be inserted to drive actions by the EOC staff during periods when their is very little to be done. Another alternative might be to terminate the participation of support agencies in the field once their demonstrations are complete and their objectives have been net. V .. I iW

UTILITY: Davis Besse Nuclect Poser Station March 31, 1987 Areas Recorrrrended For 1rrprovemnt State of Ohio

1. The State of Ohio should review its radiological monitoring training and procedures to determine if they.

should be revised. to reduce the potential for contamination of equipment. .For. example, an air samler taking a smaller sample and running off the van battery might reduce potential contamination problem, sanple containers might be lef t in the van until needed, team menbers could work in unison.to keep containers off the groin 3 while collecting samples, arv3 all staff should be fully aware of the need to limit contamination of their vehicle.

2. The field monitoring SOPS should be updated to incorporate the recent modification to the operating procedures of the multi-purpose survey instrument.

3. The milk sanpling team should be provided with a two-way radio to facilitate comunications in the event quick comaanication from or to the State or Counties is necessary.

4. The alternate JPIC location at the Toledo Edison corporate office in downtown Toledo should be demnstrated during a future radiological em rgency preparedness joint exercise.

Ottawa County There were no areas recomn?nded for improvem nt in Ottawa County. Erie County

1. The State of Ohio should consider establishing a hard copy data transmission capability between the JPIC or State EOC aol the host Counties to facilitate the flow of information.

2. The exercise controllers should provide " free play" activities during period.of inactivity. Another alternative might be to terminate the participation of support agencies once their demonstrations are complete and their d>jectives have been met.

A=. .. . 7 UTILITY: D3vis Besse Nuclear Power Station March 31, 1987 Areas Recoun?nded For Improverrent Lucas County

1. Lucas County should consider also involving the EOC staff during these periodic briefings to better i.iform the full EOC staf f of the actions beina taken by each agency.

The Schools

2. The assignment of the Dosim?try Coordinator should be specifically indicated in the plan.

Additionally, the SOPS for Jerusalem Transportation Director is responsible, but this is not stated in the plan. Elemantary School sb~1d clearly state that homeroom teachers will accor:pany their students who are evacuated by bus, and that spec. i teachers should report to Eisenhower Junior High School to assist in managerrent of the - evacuated students.

3. Each departmental Dosinnter Coordinator should provide periodic status reports to the Lucas County Radiological Operations Officer so that he can nonitor em?rgency worker exposure levels and ensure that effective nunitoring is being acconplished.

4. It is recoma?nded that either the scenario be designed to keep the EOC staff busy or controller tressages i

should be inserted to drive actions by the EOC staff during periods when their is very little to be done. Another alternative might be to terminate the participation of support agencies in the field once their demonstrations are complete and their objectives have been met. , n 42

Introduction:

A. Area

Description:

The Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station, consisting of unit 1 is a Pressurized  ! water reactor (PWR) located in northwestern Ohio, near Oak Harbor in Ottawa  ! County. It is approximately 25 miles east of the city of Toledo, Ohio.  !- Davis-Besse is owmd and operated by the Toledo Edison Conpany, Toledo, , Ohio. Basic information concerning this facility is as follows. l The facility is located on 954 acres fronting Lake Erie. Approximately 582  ! acres of the site , consisting of diked marsh areas, are leased to the U.S. Bureau of Sport Fisheries and Wildlife, forming the Navarre unit of the i Ottawa National Wildlife Refuge. The nuclear steam supply system rated 1 output is 2772 negawatts. The turbine-generator output is 960,000 (electrical) gloss with a net electrical station output of 906 negawatts. { j The coolir.a 3 ver is 493 feet high, 415 feet in dianeter at the base, and 281 feet in C neter at the top. Approximately 30,500 cubic yards of i concrete were used in it's construction, and it has a flow rate of 480,000 gpm. The conhinnent vessel is 285 feet overall in heigth, 233 feet above grade, 130 feet in dianeter, and 1-1/2 inches steel wall enclosed in a sheild building with 7 41/2 feet thick reinforced concre a walls.

                                                                   -             The reactor vessel is 14 feet inside dianeter, 39 feet high, with 8-1/2 inch thick steel           "

wall. Site preparation started May 1, 1970. The construction permit was issued March 24, 1971. The operating license was granted April 22, 1977. The c initial nuclear reaction was August 12, 1977 and first generation was August  ! 28, 1977. } B. Eneraency Planning Zone (EPZ): , Emergency planning is planned for in two predominent exposure pathways. The area ten (10) miles in all geographic points from the plant is described as the " Plume Exposure Pathway". The principle exposure sources for this pathway are whole body external exposure to gamma radiation fuom the plune , and from deposited material and, inhalation exposure from the passing radioactive plume. The secon3 exposure pathway for planning is the " Ingestion Exposure , Pathway." This planning is concerned about the ingestion or contaminated water or foods such as milk in all geographic points'within fifty (50) miles of the Davis- Besse Nuclear Power Station. The energency planning zones for the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station necessitate the need to coordinate the ef forts of two countries (U.S. & Canada), two starts (Ohio & Michigan), and eighteen (18) ccunties.

                ' ~ 1. GoverntEnts within the ten (10) mile EPZ:

I . The inhalation plume exposure pathway EPZ out to ten (10) miles includ2s parts of Ottawa an3 Lucas Counties in Ohio and part of Lake Erie. The total affected permanent population within ten (10) miles of the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station, based on Figure J-10 of the Ottawa County plan is 1.

21,514. Peak sunner season, transient,- and- enployees will . raise the populatio'n within the ten (10) mile EPZ another 40,551 people. The ten (10) mile EPZ boundaries actually exceed ten (10) miles in sone areas since the boundries are drawn by using known political /geograhical boundries. The pereanent population within five (5) miles of the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power l Station is 1,933 people. Peak sunner season, transient, and enployees will  ! raise the population within five (5) miles another 10,397 people, j

2. Governnents within the fif ty (50) mile EPZ:

The ingestion pathway EPZ of fif ty (50) miles includes a portion of Canada and Lake Erie, portions of four' (4) counties 'in Michigan, all of Ottawa, Lucas, Wood, Enndusky, Erie, and Seneca counties in Ohio, and portions of  ; Fulton, Henry, Hancock, Wyandot, Crawford, Richland, Huron, and Lorain j counties in Ohio. The Ohio 1980 census indicates 1.1 million people are: ' within the Ohio portion of the fifty (50) mile EPZ. . 1 C. Special Demographic Circumstances for plannit g:

1. The site-specific area is one which has a Jeasonal population ,

which is contrasted from sunner to winter.  !

2. The Enrico Fermi Atomic Power Plant, Unit 2 is located approxi-f,. mately thirty (30) miles to the northwest.  !

3. Located on Lake Erie within the ten (10) mile EPZ of the Davis Besse Nuclear Power Plant are the Ottawa National Wildlife Refuge Cunplex, the Crane Creek Wildlife Experinent station, and the Crane Creek State Park. ,

[ According to the State of Ohio the Ottawa National 'dlMife Refuge houses the Refuge Headquarters, Butternut Lo6 p Alth a j capacity of 36 people and three cabins for use by environnental, i educational, and bird watebing groups. The Ottawa National 3 Wildlife Refuge lies six (6) miles to the west of the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station. Discussions with the refuge managenent indicated the refuge is open year round. The peak season for the refuge lasts between May and October with a maximum one day total of approximately 500 visitors. The Crane Creek Wildlife Experinent Stl.uion is located in Crane Creek State Park in Ottawa and Lucas Counties. The station lies approximately five miles to the west of the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power 3tation. The station attre. cts visitors throughout the year. The peak time for visitors is during hunting season when the station operates blinds for sportsmen. The maxium one day total for the station is 300 visitors. >

            ~

The Crane Creek State Park is a 79 acre recreational facility located in Ottawa and Lucas counties approximately five (5) miles from the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station. Visitors cone to the park primarily for picnics and swinming activities. According to 2.

l- t t park sources the average daily atteMence during the.sumer is bet-ween 1,500 to 2,000 people. -The peak single day atteMence during ) a suMay in July is approximately 14,000 people. During the winter I nonths the average daily attendence is between 200 to 300 people. The park is open from sunrise to sunset.

4. The entire city of Port Clinton, Ohio is included in the ten (10) mile EPZ planning even though only a portion of the city lies within ten (10) miles of the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station.

i l 5. Cang Perry, Ohio Army National Guard, lies within ten (10) miles of ( the Davis-Besse Nuclear' Power Station.

            -6. Because of the proximity to Lake Erie, streans and rivers which            '

cause flooding, both Ottawa and Lucas County have experience l in dealing with evacuation and mass care aspects comon to any. type of an emergency or disaster. D. Emergency Planning Authority and Organization:

1. Principle State and Local Planning Organizations 2 '

l As the official responsible for the safety of Ohio's citizens aM the protection of property, the Governor is in charge of the State's response efforts in the event of a radiological energency. At al1~ levels of  ! f. governnent, public of ficials, elected or appointed, have an inherent legal and noral duty or rasponsibility to protect the lives and properties. of their citizens, as well as to initiatie dange recovery actionsL in an affected jurisdiction. Sections 5915.01 through 5915.99 cf the Ohio Revic'ed Code'(CRC) define the authority of various agencies to carry out response ricU.vities during a radiological emergency. Additional legal support is found in the Executive orders of the Governor, dated June 16, 1978;- crdeep of the Adjutant General of Ohio; specified contractual agreemnte with ;the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA); and other orders and directives as issued by the Governor or the Adjutant General. State activities in a- radiological emergency involve providing support ,(for exanplo manpower, technical, expertise, reconmendations) but do not call for State direction of local governnent activities. . As stated in sections 5915.05 of the ORC, each county and municipality shall appoint a Director uf Disaster Services. Additional authority is found  ; under Title 3, 5, 7, 29, and 37 of the ORC, local ordinances, regulations, and decisions, to include county-wide agencies to participate in a-disaster , services program and mutual aid. Local and State governaent are reponsible for pre-disaster planning, training, and response to an emergency as set forth in U.S. Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Title 10, Part 50, Appendix E. When an energency is beyond local resources for response or recovery, the county comnissioners may request assistance from the Governor. On Decenber 23, 1986 the Ottawa County Board of Conmissioners approved their plan, and passed a resolution to forward the " Ottawa County Plan For , Response To Radiation Energencies At Li:ensed Cuclear Facilities" to the Federal Energency Managenaent Agency (FEMA) for review, a i

We Lucas County Board of Conrnissioners on Decenber 11, 1986 authorized the Og forwarding of the "Lucas County Radiological Energency Response Plan for review by the Ohio Disaster Services Agency and the Federal Energency Managenent Agency. The Lucas County Board of Contnissioners forwarded their plan to FEMA on Decenber 12, 1986.

2. Concept of operations:

Selected State, county, local, federal, axJ private / volunteer organizations, plus the utility conpany, are part of the overal'1 response effort. The nethods of acconplishing this 1.s reflected below. r Direction and Control: The Governor aM the Chairmn, Ottawa and Lucas. County Board . of- < Comnissioners provide direction aM control of off-site energency activities for the State of Ohio and Ottawa and Lucas Counties. These officials are responsible for the protection of their citizens. The fullfillnent of this responsibility is shared by cognizant State end local departnents and-agencies. Notification: , i Notification includes all initial actions necessary to alert local, State, ~ Federal, and private sector response agencies to the occurrence of a nuclear power station accident. We mininum information for the primary response agencies must include an estimte of the area on or off-site which my be involved. Also the initial infornation should provide primary response agencies with enough information to permit assessment of the magnitude, nature and consequences of the accident to permit appropriate, timely, ~ and skilled response. When an accident occurs that causes, or may cause, an off-site release,- the plant operators will alert the following prinary response agencies which  ; have 24-hour capability: The county sheriff or other designated authority, who, in turn, will notify 1ccal agencies and other reponse organizations, as identified in the Ottawa and Lucas County plans; -The United States Nuclear Regulatory Comnission; the Ohio Disaster Services Agency (ODSA); all other involved response organizations as identified in the utility conpany's energency plan. Upon notification of an accident involving protective actions (actual or potential off-site release), the primary response agency -will take the following actions: The County Board of Comnissioners or designated authority (sheriff) will alert the population in the EPZ; The ODSA will alert the Ohio Departnent of Health (ODH), (which in turn, contacts the USNRC) and other State departnents and agencies whose tesources' may be required. In addition, ODSA will alert adjacent governaental entities which may be af fected by the accident; ODSA will alert FB% in accordance with provisions of the Federal Radiological Energency Response Plan (FRERP) and other Federal agencies, as appropriate.

E. History of The Planning and Preparedness: The state plan and Site specitic plans for the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station were initially prepared using NUREG 0654/EtMA REP-1 INTERIM as a guide. They later were revised according to NUREG 0654-FEMA REP-1, Revision

1. State and local Site specific plans for the Beaver Valley and the Perry Nuclear Power Plants have also been developed using N'JREG 0654/ FEMA REP-1, ,

I Revision 1 as a guide. The Governor of Ohio initially submitted to EMA for approval the state and local Site-specific plan for the Beaver Valley Nuclear Power Plant on Jane i 21, 1984, for FEMA approval according to provisions of 44 CFR Part 350c7. He again requested this approval in writing an January 23, 1986. The Beaver  ! Valley Nuclear Power Plant Regional Director's Evaluation was forwarded to-FEMA HQ with a reconnendation for approval on March 16,1987 and was approved by FEMA on June 11, 1987. Governor Celeste, as of the date of this Regional Director's Evaluation, han not requested FEMA approval of the State and local Site-specific plans for the Perry Nuclear Power Plant. Governor Rhodes originally submitted the State and Local plans site specific to the Davis-Besse Nuclear W Station to FEMA Region V for approval according to Federal guiO .e at that tin.3 on Feburary 25, 1981. The Regional Director's Evaluation was forwarded to FE% HQ with a recoanendation for approval on March 29 1982. Shortly af ter subnitting the Davis-Besso Ragional Director's Evaluation, FE% Region V reconsidered the absence of a Lucas County plan an-1 requested that FEMA Headquarters not process the Davis-Besso Ragional Director's Evaluation until the Lucas County plan issue could be resolved. FE m notifled the Ohio Disaster Service's Agency (ODSA) on June 29, 1982, that further processing of the State submission for Davis-Besse was being placed on hold pending submittal of a Lucas County radiological emergency Preparedn'ess Plan. In October 1984, ODSA received from Toledo Edison a proposal to redefine the i ten (10) mile "plune exposure pathway" zone (EPZ) around the Davis-Besse , Nuclear Power Station. In addition to eliminating a portion of Lucas County affected by the ten (10) mile EPZ, the proposal also eliminated that part of the city of Port Clinton (Ottawa County) within the ten (10) mile EPZ that had been included in the original planning effort. The ODSA, on April 30, 1985 submitted this proposd to FEMA Region V and recomiended it be approved. EMA Headquarters and Regional Staff reviewed the States Proposal and supporting docuaentation to redefine the ten (10) mile EPZ and determined that it was not acceptable. This was conmunicated by FEMA in a Decenber 9, 1985 letter to the Ohio Disaster Service's Agency. .In this letter FEMA also stated that in addition, due to (1) the continued absence of a Lucas County plan, and (2) the long period of time which has elapsed since the states original, inconplete submission in 1981; It was determined that FEMA would return the States original submission unless certain information is provided to FEMA Region V within 60 days of the Decenber 9, 1985 FEMA letter. The information required with respect to the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station EPZ included the following five (5) geographical areas discussed in the EPZ

 ~

proposal submitted by ODSA AND Toledo Edison Conpany: (1) the city of Port Clinton, (2) Ottawa County (western boundries), (3) Lucas County, (4) Lake Erie boundary, and (5) the exclusion of Sandusky County from the ten (10) mile EPZ planning. 1 5

The ODSA on February 5, 1986 submitted additional infornation to FEMA Region V on the five (5) issues nontioned above. FEMA Region V reviewe3 the additional infornation provided by the State of Ohio and found acceptable the States decision to include the entire city of Port Clinton in the ten (10) mile EPZ planning and the Ottawa proposed changes to the EPZ af fecting Benton and Harris Township, the resolution of the Lake Erie EPZ boundary, and the justification to exclude Sandusky County from the ten (10) mile EPZ planning. FEMA Region V did not recept the additional justification submitted by ODSA for the exclusion of a portion of Lucas County in the ten (10) mile EPZ Planning effort and recormended to FEMA HQ that a Lucas County plan still be require 3. These FEMA Region V reconnendations were . s ested by FEMA HQ in the letter of March 19, 1986 to the ODSA. FEMA HQ further required that an approved Radiological Energency Response Plan for Lucas County be r' 'tted to FEMA Region V within 120 days of FEMA's March 19, 1986 lettei ODSA, FEMA further regaired that dates for a full State exercise and a public neeting must also be agreed to within the 120 day pe., , exercise and Public neeting was required to occur within ca. .dar year 198o. A full participation exercise was originally scheduled for June, 1987. The Governor of Ohio on March 24, 1986 asued his inplenenting directive for "The Ohio Plan For Response to Radiation Energencies At Licensed Nuclear Facilities." The Ohio Disaster Service Agency on May 12, 1986 wrote FEMA Headquarters to indicate a Lucas County plan separate from the Ottawa County plan would be developed. The ODSA also indicated the intent of State and local governnent i to neet each and all of the requirements outlined in FEMA Headquadters March l 19,1986 letter but ODSA felt that a 120-day deadline for submission of a Lucas County plan and revision to the Ottawa County Plan, an exercise and Public meeting before the end of the 1936 calendar year placed an extreme hardship on State and local resources, finances, and Personnel. The ODSA requested the 120-day requireaent be waived. The ODSA further pointed out that a full participation exercise at the Davis-Besse Nuclear PMer Station was already scheduled for June, 1987 and requested the deadline for exercising the Lucas County Plan within calendar year 1986 be renoved and instead, allow the exercise of the plan to take place in conjunction with the 1987 exercise with a public neeting held soon af terwards. l The issue of the 120-day deadline was also discussed at a May 20, 1986 neeting at the FEMA Region V offices with representatives from the Davis Desse Nuclear Power Station, ODSA, the NRC Region III and FEMA Region V. During this neeting it was tenatively agreed that a conpromise would be nede by noving the Davis-Besse exercise from June, 1987 to March 1987 and that the 120-day deadline would then change to a March, 1987 deadline. The ODSA, in its letter of May 30, 1986 wrote to FEMA Region V to reject the tentative compromise worked at the May 20th neeting and submitted issues that, in the opinion of ODSA, supported justification to enange the Davis Besse exercise to a date after June, 1987. I 6.

i Senior Representatives of the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station, the ODSA, aM the NRC net with Senior FEMA Officials on June 6, 1986 to discuss further the Davis-Besse off-site planning issues and the FEMA March 10, 1986 [ 1etter to ODSA. Further discussion of the issues occured during a June 9,

1986 telephone call between officials of the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station and-FEMA Region V. Another conference call occurred June 30, 1986 between officials of the Davis Besse Nuclear Power Station, the ODSA and -

FEMA Region V. This resulted in a July 8, 1986 letter form ODSA that included a list of milestones and conpletion dates leading up to and

   ;acluding an       m ercise aM public neeting.      It was agreed by ODSA that the revised State of Ohio and Ottawa County Plan and the newly developed Lucas County plan would be submitted to FEMA Region V prior to Decenber 30,. 1986.

These plans were actually submitted to FEMA Region V on Decenber 29,1986. It was further agreed that the Davis Besse exercise would occur on March 31, 1987 and the public neeting would take place on April 30, 1987 The ODSA again wrote FEMA Region V on July 11, 1986 enclosing a copy of the nemorandum of understaMing pertaining to energency planning signed by Lucas County Comissioners, Jerusalem Township Trustees, ODSA, and the Tolede. Edison Conpany. It was further pointed out that a public forum to be conducted in Jerusalem Township to aquaint Trustees and residents with -the Lucas County Radiological Emergency Response Plan was scheduled for July 22, 1986. The nemorandum indicated the parties agreed to conplete certain activities prior to the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station planned start-up in October, 1986 as well as. to interim neasures which remained in effect until the final approved Lucas County REP plan aM facilities are place. The Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station was shut down as a result of the June 9,1985 accident at the plant. FEMA on July 23, 1986 wrote the NRC to indicate the agreenent made concerning off-site planning for Davis-Besse and to' inform the NRC that FEMA Headquarters was returning the previously submitted FEMA Regional Director's Evaluation to FEMA Region V. It was pointed out that following the conpletion of necessary plan modification, exercise activity and a public neeting, it was anticipated that FEMA would have sufficient infortnation to proceed with an evaluation of Ohio's plans under 44 CFR 350. It was pointed out, however, that should the State and local governments fall to carry out its conmitnents within the tine frames specified, FEMA would return the site specific plans to the State of Ohio in accordance with FEMA regulations FEMA agreed to provide the NRC wii a status upd: e following the planned utility only exercise in Septenber, 1986 wherein the Counties of Ottawa ar)d Lucas agreed to participate via a table top discussion wich was observed by-EEMA Region V. Another status report was to be provided to the NRC after the March 31, 1987 exercise. FEMA Region V was charged with nonitoring progress to ensure that the milestones were sucessfully met in accordance to the dates listed in the July 8, 1986 ODSA letter to FEMA Region V and that-the provision of the "Menorandum of UnderstanSing" were adhered to. FEMA Region V, in its letter of Septenber 5, 1986, inforned ODSA of the above cond,itions decided by FEMA Heaguarters. f . 7.

The June 9, 1985 Davis-Besse accident involving severe problems with both the prinary and auxiliary cooling systens, the January 31, 1986 earthquake near the Perry Nuclear Power Station and the April 26, 1986 Chernobyl Nuclear Power Station accident in Russia resulted in public, tied ia , and political attention in Ohio concerning the status of planning around both the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station anS the Perry Nuclear Power Plant. In fact, the Governor of Ohio on May 7, 1986 wrote the Chairman of the United States Nuclear Regulatory Comission to express his concern and urged the chairnen to reconsider the comissions decision to deny the Atomic Safety and Licensing Appeals Board's desire for and exploratory hearing about Perry's ability to withstand an earthquake and the ability of the NRC to inprove safety at Davis-Besse. The chairm n, Nuclear Regulatory Comission on June 26, 1986 wrote the Governor of Ohio explaining the position of the NRC. It should be noted that the NRC on Decenber 19, 1986 approved the restart of the DBNPS and by March 20, 1987 the DBNPS war again operating at full power. The Governor of Ohio again wrote the chairnen, Nuclear Regulatory Conmission on August 15, 1986 citing the explosion and fire at the Chernobyl -Nuclear Power Station on April 26, 1986, the January 31, 1986 Earthquake near the Perry Nuclear Power Plant and the June 5, 1985 accident at the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station as justification for reassessment of Nuclear safety around the world. The Governor further stated he withdrew his support for evacuation plans for the Davis-Besse and Perry nuclear power plants as well as his March 24, 1986, inglenenting directive, pending Ohio's review of evacuation plans. He further stated he expected the NIC would withhold the license for full power operations at the two plants until Ohio's review was sat.!sf actorily conpleted. He appointed a team chaired by the Director of Highway Safety and including the chairman of- the Public Utilities Comission of Ohio and the Adjatant General as nenber to conduct this review. The team, known as the Errgency Evacuation Review Tea'm coupleted its work and submitted its report to the Governor in Decenber, 1986. The adjatant General of Ohio an April 30, 1987 submitted a copy of this report to FEMA Region V for consideration in developing this Reginal Director's Evaluation. FEMA Region V also received and reviewed correspondence from the Ottawa County Board of Comissionior and the Director / Coordinator of the ottawa County Disaster Service Agency, Professor Richard Wilson, Mallinckrodt Professor of Physics at Howard University, and Stone and Webster Engineering Corporation. .Profes'sor Wilson submitted a copy of his letter to the Governor of Ohio wherein he stated he felt the Energency Evacuation Review Team's report was " technically foolish, and probably politically unwise to place any relionce whatever upon it." The report lictad professor Wilson as one of the experts consulted prior to its preparation. He stated in writing to FEMA Region V that he was not consulted but merely received a phone call. His letter to the Governor of- t Ohio disavowed his official involvement with the review team appointed by the Governor. The Ottawa County Board of Comissioners submittal to FEMA ' Region V consisted by sixteen (16) pages of natetial in response to the Governor's Emergency Evacuation Review Team Report that basically criticized and refuted the report. The correspondence submitted by Stone and Webster to FEMA Region V was also a copy of its February 2, 1987 letter to the Governor of Ohio. 8. _ _ _ = = - - - - _ . . _ _ _ - - - _ - - - . . . . _

This correspordence was written by an individeal who also stated he appeared before the Errergency Evacuation Review Team as an expert witness, on behalf of Toledo Edison. This irdividual also stated in writing to FEMA Region V that- he felt he report was " seriously flawed and should not be relied on in FEMA's current review of energency planning of the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Plant," FEMA Region V did not receive any correspordence, other than the report, that was submitted to support the report prepared by the Governor's Energency Evacuation Review Team. FEMA Region V did review and consider the Energency Evacuation Review Team Report aM the correspondence submitted to FEMA Region V that criticized the report in developing this Regional Director Evaluation. FEMA Region V is also aware of the fact that the Energency Evacuation Review Team has coMucted serval public neetings in developing the report and has subsequantly corducted several meetings to inplerrent the findings of the Report. FEMA Region V on October 3, 1986 submitted to FEMA HQ a written status report reflecting a schedule of activities acconplished for the period July 8, 1986 through the Septenber 23, 1986 Lucas County table toe demonstration as part of the Davis-Besse utility only exercise. The statu report also contained a FEMA Region V analysis of activities outlined in the nettorandum of understanding developed to protect Jerusalem Township citizens until the Lucas County Plr n was cortpleted. FEMA Region V concluded that the nortorardum of raderstanding was being inplenented as agreed. FEMA Headquarters sub.nitted this status report to the NRC on Octcicer 21, 1986. The Attorney General of Ohio on October 24, 1986 wrote the Director of the office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation, Nuclear Material Safety, and Safeguards, Inspections and Enforcertent (NRC) requesting that the NRC initiate proceedings to suspend the operating license ard prevent the restart of the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station. This request was not accepted and in fact the restart of the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station - was approved by the NRC on Decenber 19, 1986 and the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station went to full power on March 20, 1987. The Nuclear Regulatory Conmission on Novertber 10, 1986 requested FEMA to provide a response to the issues raised by the October 20, 1986 resolution of the Ohio Association of Public School Enployees as they relate to offsite emergency preparedness for the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station and the "Second Course of Action" in the 10 CFR 2.206 Petition of toledo Coalition for safe Energy and Susan A Carter (Pitition). FEMA Region V prepared a response to the above NRC request and forwarded it to FEMA Headquarters on Novenber 12, 1986. FEMA Headquarters, in turn, provided this response to the NRC by Novenber 14, 1986. FEMA Region V concluded that "In spite of the resolution passed by OAPSE-AFSCME, Northwest Chapter, it does appear that school ertployees are willing to cooperate, attend rieetings and participate in training related to their energency duties (school bus drivers, food service, custodial, etc. ) in the event of an energency at the Davis-Besse Noclear Power Station."

F. PJlanReview: The Regional Assistance Conmitte (RAC) for FEMA Region V has reviewed the Ohio Plan for Response to Radiation Energencies at Licensed Nuclear Facilities, the Ottawa County plan for Response to Radiation Energencies at Licensed Nuclear Facilities, and the Lucas County Radiological Energency The Response Plan. The latest RAC review was conducted February 24, 1987. State and local site specific plans were prepared by state and, local officials using NUREG 0654/ FEMA REP-1, Revision 1 and 44CFR part 350 as a guide. The Toledo Edison Conpany did provide consultant help to assist State and local official in developing the p) ins. RAC review connents were provided to State and local officials involved in the planning for the The State of Ohio has provided FEMA Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station. Region V with a schedule of corrective actions to correct remaining planning weaknesses and has also provided FEMA Region V with revised pages to the State and local site specific plan. The Regional assistance Conmittee review, the schedule of corrective actions developed by officials from the State of Ohio and Ottawa and Lucas Counties and the revised pages to the planning are incorportited into this Regional Director Evaluation for the Davis-Besse Nuclear Pover Station. G. Public Meetings: o public neetings have been conducted to explain the State and local site ecfic offsite plans for the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station. The first eeting was conducted at Port Clinton, Ohio on Novenber 7, 1980 to explain the State of Ohic and Ottawa County plans. The second meeting was conducted on April 30, 1987 as a result of the development of the Lucas County Plan. The April 30, 1987 Public neeting was conducted at the Eisenhower Junior High School in Oregon, Ohio for the purpose of explaining the revised State of Ohio and Ottawa County plans and the newely developed Lucas County Plan. Both Public neetings were scheduled, announced, and conducted in accordance to requirenentss outlined in 44CFR Part 350. Both neetings were chaired by and The notices of the meeting, attendance roster, FEMA Region V. Transcript of the meeting are included as,part of this evaluation, j H. Exercises: The initial qualifying exercise was conducted on Novenber 6, 1980. The exercise was full participation for all exercise participantc; the State of Ohio, Ottawa County and the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station. No deficiencies af fecting public health and safety were identified. Sone areas requiring corrective action were identified and have been addressed by the State of Ohio and Ottawa County. l l

The second exercise was conducted on April 13-14,'1983. This was a partial l participation exercise for the State of Ohio and a full participation j exercise for Ottawa County and the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station. The 2 Nuclear Regulatory Conmission, Region III also participated as a player in this exercise to test their respor.se planning. No deficiencies affecting public health and safety were identified. There were sone areas requiring corrective action identifled that lave been addressed by the State of Ohio and Ottewa County. The third exercise was conducted July 16, 1985 This was a full j participation. exercise for the exercise, participants; the State of Ohio, Ottawa County, and the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station. Again, No deficiencies af fecting public health and safety were $ 3entified. Some areas requiring corrective action were identified and have been addressed by the-State of Ohio and Ottawa County. The fourth exercise was conducted March 31, 1907. This exercise was a partial participation exercise for the State of Ohio'and full participation exercies for Ottawa and Lucas Counties and the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station. No dificiencies affecting public health and safety.-were , identified. There are some areas requiring corrective action by' state ~ and local govern: tents. The areas of corrective action of the March 31, 1987 exercise were not a repeat of the July 16, 1985 exercise. The S t< w of Ohio, Ottawa and Lucac County have submitted a schedule of corrective 'on to FEMA Region V whidi has been reviewed and found to be acceptable ;o correct the exerciso weaknesses. I. Pronpt Alert ar.d Notification System certification: l 1 The certification test of the Prortpt Alert and Notification System was held l on March 21,~ 1985. Since the test two additional sirens have been added in the city of Port Clinton arxl five sirens have been added along the western and south western boundry. Although Lucas County did not have their~ own plan until 1986,two sirens were in place at the tine of the exercise for that portion of Lucas County that is within ten (10) miles of the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power. Station. Three additional sirens have been established. in Jerusalem Township. The Pronpt Alert arrl ' Notification System is currently awaiting approval by EEMA Headquarters. J.

Evaluation of the Ohio Plan fot Response to Radiation E.nergencies at Licensed Nuclear Facilities and the radiological- energency response plans for Lucas and Ottawa Counties has concentrated on the development of these ' plans, their content, and the inplenentation of these plans as observed during two (2) full participation Davis-Besse exercises,and two (2) partial .e participation exercise, During the evaluation process, FEMA Region V and the RAC have had the opportunity to work with State and Local officials, private citizens, and , the NRC in identifying and resolving weaknesses in the plans. FEMA and the RAC have reviewed the revised State of Ohio Plan, the revised Ottawa County Plan and the newly developed Lucas County Plan. The RAC plans review concluded that there are no camining planning deficiencies which would enpede the health an3 safety of the population living in the vicinity of the Davis-Besso Nuclear Power Station. The te (2) full participation and two (2) partial participation exercise evaluations of State and local ability to inplement the plans deemstrate3 the State of Ohio, Lucas and Ottawa Counties can effectively respon1 to e radiological energency resulting fron an accident at tM nwis-Besse Machar Paaac Station, i It is cutteobly felt that the reaainioJ planning and -exercise tor 3e<pacies

           .ce such that once coctected woald serve to ivtan upon the overall energency capability. The inadequacies are being correcte1 and will be reflected in the next revision to the plans.

As a result of the this evaluation, the Federal Energency Management Agency, Region V is of the opinion the revised State of Ohio and Ottawa County energency preparedness plans and the newely developed Lucas County Plan are adequate and capable of being inglenented to protect the population. It is recormend that approval of these plans be given by the ' Federal Emergency Managenent Agency.

4 l A. Assignment of Resp,onsibility: {@,  : The Governor of Ohio, as well as the Comissioners of Lucas and Ottawa ' Counties, have assuaed by legislative enactaent the- responsiblities for emergency planning and respanse. The Federal and utility respor.se is , discusse3 in detail in the planning. The State of Ohio anS Lucas arri Ottawa Counties will carry oat their planninj proc +3utes t'icough the coor:linab+1 , ef forts of their ravective emrijn:y resp >nse staf fa.

cancapt of operations in relationship to the total effort is clearly 1 identified in a narrative and diagram foraat. The individuals who are in charge of the e,nergency response -have been i clearly identifie3 by the plan. Provisions have been est.611shed for the  ; 24-hour energency response as sall as 24-hour manning of the co nnanications links. , The plans clearly in31 cates that the governnents and support organizations are fully capable of providing a continuous 24-hour operation for a protracted period. The plans indicate by position title those individuals , responsible for ensuring the continuity of resources neccessary to the-response. The key organizations of energency response each have clear and concise functional statements describing their individual responsibilities toward the total response effort. These functions are also projected on a matrix  ; depicting primary and secondary levels of responsibility. i Sections 5915.01 throug'a 5915.99 of the Ohio Revised Ccde define the , authority of various State and local agencies to carry out respanse activities during a radiolojical emergency as the legal basis for authority. Both Dicas ard ottawa Couqties acard of Conninistoneers passe 3 resolutions, signe;l theit plan in31cating approval and signed letter forwarding their plans to the ODSA and FCru for review. The plans also provide information relative to the c)1oept of operations and further recognizes the interrelationships betwen M3eral, State, ani local organizations inten.1+3 to provide support during radiolojical energencies. Letters of agrement have been establishe3 sith those organizations intenSed to provide support during energencies.

The plan designated by tittle those individuals responsible to request Federal support.      The State of Ohio has a wide variety of govermental and non-governrrental organizations which can be relied upon to provide sufficient resources necessary to successfully respond to radiological emergencies.

The State and County plans are coordinated so that a joint response can be realized during an errergerney. The next revision of the State plan will l ) include letters of agreemnt concerning egaipmnt at the EOP and the JPIC l used by State an3 local officials. The State plan lolicates that there win i by a qualified State representative grasent at tha utility's EOF around the clock daring an enstgaocy.

Emergency Classification System: The State and County plans utilize tha eTergency classification system discribed by W REG 0654/PE % RCP-1 Revision 1 and is consistent with the system used by the utility. l E. Notification Methods and Procedures: The State of Ohio as well as Ottan and Lucas Counties have coordinated their planning efforts so that the various resources from each are utilized in a coordinated trenner. Their plans describe the proceduces that will be used to alert, notify and mobilize their e:tergency response personnel consistent with the emergency action level. Provisions have been established for the periodic release of information to the public. Information provided by the utility is coordinated with State and County officials prior to release to the public. State and local officials provide public information through the Ettergency Broadcast System (EBS) which .is the i administrative and physical treans ts notify the public within the ten (10) mile EPZ. The plans also specify t' .e titne rega t te.1 fot notifying an1 providing protet instractions to the OMic.

The system has been upgraded since then and the Federal' Energency Managcnent Agency is currently reviewing monthly operability tests and. should be in a

   >  position to make a decision concerning approval within the next four (4) to six Z) weeks. The plans provide prescriptive messages which are to be used               !

to advise the public of the appropriate protective action. F. Comunication:  ! i The State and County plans describe the primary and alternate connonication  ! links between all the energency response organizations. -In most instances, telephones are designs ed as the primary comunication link between the i various organizations witi, radio systems used by nobile units in field. i The State of Ghio as well as Ottawa and Lucas Counties maintain a 24-hour per day connonicaticn link with the utility and other organizations including the Federal governnent who are intended to provide an energency  ; response capability. The connonication links are tested periodically to j ensure their reliability. l i G. Public Education and Information: The Toledo Edison Conpany in cooperation with the Ottawa County Emergency Managenent Agency, Toledo-Lucas County Civil , Defense and the Ohio Disaster Services Agency has deveoped a booklet entittled "Errergency Information For h Ottawa and Lucas Counties". This booklet also includes- a- calendar to encourage most individuals to keep the material ayallable to them in their homes. This booklet is updated annually by direct mail to _ residents within j (15) mile radius of the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power approximately a fifteen Station. Notices of instruction-action and energency information are posted  ; in Public areas to ensure the transient population has access to necesary ' emergency information. Energency information is also contained in local i telephone directors and in prepared transient information flyers. The plans designate a primary and alternate points of contact with the i media. Arrangements have been established to ensure the tinely exchange of coordinated news releses to the news nedia. A runer control capability has been established for concerned people to call and receive a direct . answer. H. Emergency Facilities and Equipment: The State of Ohio's Emergency -Operations Center (EOC) is located in the i basement of the Robert B. Beightler Armory, 2825 Granville Road, Warthington, Ohio. The Ottawa County EOC is 1ruated in the basenent of the County Court House in Port Clinton, Ohio. "ne Lucas County EOC is located in the Sub-basement of the Lucas County Cor.;ection Center at 1622 Spielbush Avenue in Toledo, Ohio. These EOC's ne the locations that the EOC staff report and conduct their emergency respone. The plans indicate according to energency action levels how and when the EOC will be manned and operated, l l l l 15.

The Stats has Lecepted primary rarpon2ibility for offsits rcdiological nonitoring in coordination with the utility. The State plan describes the nenner in wh!ch the Ohio Disaster Services Agency and the Ohio Departnent of Health will fulfill these responsibilities. The State Plan has established provisions for the inspection and calibration of offsite radiological nonitoring equipnent both at the State and County levels. The plan further identifies the nobile units and the various kits

• meded by the radiological nonitoring teans. The State has established a central point for the collection of field sanples and has arranged for airlif t of these sanples to the appropriate laboratory for analysis.

Ottawa anS Lucas Counties radiological nonitoring responsibilities are limited to nonitoring radiation' exposure to energency workers, nonitoring energency workers for contamination, and coordinating and supporting the operation of reception centers in the area of nonitoring evacuees and performing decontamination. I. Accident Assessment: The State plan describes the capability and the resources necesary to conplete radiological field nonitoring within the energency planning zone (E PZ ) . It further outlines the nethods, equipnent, activation and notification neans, field team conposition, transportation, comunications, nonitoring locations and estinated deploynent and arrival tines to make rapid assessnents of radiological hazards through liquid or gaseous. release-pathways. The state plan addresses the capability to detect anS neasure radiolodine concentrations in the air. 4 The state has established the neans for evaluating the neasured paraneters I and gross radioactivity nesurenents, estinating intergrated doses from the projected anS accrued dose rates and for conparing these estimates with the l protective action guides. The state plan also provides for the arrangenents to locate. and track the l airborne radioactive plune. Further, arrangenents have been estsblished - i with the U.S. Department of Energy (USDOE) 'to provide assistance when needed by the state to increase the capability of tracking and neasuring the airborne plune. J. Protective Responses: The state, as well as Ottawa and Lucas Counties have predetermined evacuation routes and transportation for individuals to offsite locations where arrangenents have been nade to register evacuees and to provide them with food and shelter. A study has been conducted to ascertain the traffic flow rate based on seasonal conditions. Further, arrangements have been nede to facilitate the evacuation process through the renoval of inpedinents

  , such as stalled cars, snow, ice, etc.

(O 16

a i The State and county plans have established the capability for inplenenting protective neasures which are consistent with the reconnendations of the l U.S. Environnental protection Agency (USEPA) . Planning is for both the inhalation and ingestion pathways.

   'Ihe plan contains a narrative and individual mp description of the evacuation routes,     reception centers, congregrate care facilities,          and preselected radiological -monitoring points.           Separate m ps providing the locations of these areas are pro /ided in the plan.           Maps projecting the     i various segnents of the EPZ indicating population distribution at two, five, and ten miles from the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station are located in the State and County Plans and are also posted in the EOC. Confidential list               '

have been prepared and periodically updated identifying those nobility l inpaired- persons who may require special attention during protective action responses. ! Provisions for the use of KI and the criteria for its use are outlined in the revised State ard County Plans. The specified protective neasures are consistent with Federal guidance. The Ohio Departnent of Health approved, the policy on the use of Potassium Iodide (KI) on May 22, 1987. The revised State Policy on the use of KI is that energency workers and institutionalized persons within the Plume exposure pathway whose evacuation may be infeasible or very difficult shall be advised to take KI as set forth l in the State and county plans. The general population, as in the previous , KI policy are not to be given KI. The State of Ohio and County plant 5clude a description of the State of Ohio's policy to distribute KI to energency workers. The ODSA radiological analyst in each county is responsible to distribute KI to _the dosinetry coordinator for each departnent. KI for State emergency workers has been- s pre-distributed by ODSA. The Ohio Department of Health is currently in the process of training persons at each local institution responsible for distributing KI to the institutionalized. Upon conpletion of training the Ohio Departnent of Health will pre-distribute liquid EI at each institution through the county health departnent. l The neans of relocation, the hoeting centers and their 1rcations, projected traffic capacities and control of access to the evacuation area are provided for in the plans. The evacuation study conducted under contract, identified by season those anticipated inpediments which may be. experienced. 'This study _provides tine estimates for the evacuation of the people within the sectors to be evacuated. Monitoring of the evacuation process and dealing with inpediments is the responsibility of the County and would be supported by the State as needed. l The State of Ohio in their plan makes provision for protective neasures which include assurance that the food chain -is carefully nonitored. ! Procedures are established for the detection of contamination, estimating the dose comitment consequences of uncontrolled ingestion for inposing protection procedures such as inpourdment, decontamination, processing, decay; product diversion and preservation.

The plans do not allow any personnel exposurec in excess of the above limits. These (PAG's). limits are consistent with USEPA The' plans also include authorized protective action guides of errergency workers, their provisions for radiological decontamination wounds if any supplies, instruaents, equipnent and for waste disposal. 4 l L. Medical and Public Health Support: l The State ard County plans refer to a list of hospitals including back up hospitals which may be called upon to provide medical services to those These contaminated injuried personnel requiring medical attention. hospitals that have been designated have trained statt and neccessary equipnent availabe to provide these services. The Ottawa County plans states that the "H.B. Magruder Menorial Hospital, Port Clinton, Ohio serves as the primary care facility to receive and treat persons exposed, contaminated . or injured as a result of a radiological Nuclear Power Station....

l Hospital. Transportirrj contaminated injured individuals to these tredical facilities is also addressed in the plans. M. Recovery and Reentry Plannirn and Post-Accident Operations: The State aid County plans describe the nethods to enable reentry into the evacuated area. There are established procedures to evaluate the contaminated area ard determine the extent in which protective neasures will be relaxed. According to the plans, the State in coordination with the utility, is responsible for reconnending to the county when the protective actions can be relaxed and reentry procedures inplenented. It is also possible that the Departnent of Energy (DOE) and Nuclear Regulatory Conmission (NRC) my also be involved in reconsteading relaxing the protective actions during the reentry-recovery phase. N. Exercise ard Drills: The State and County platis establishes the periodic conduct of sinclated energencies into the formt of an exercise to test the intergrated capability of energency planning ard response. These exercises my or may not be corducted in conjunction with the surrounding States and Counties (Beaver Valley) included in the sane ten mile EPZ. The exercises are conducted as required by the NRC and FEMA rules and planning guidance. Further, the plan provides for the evaluation by Federal evaluators. The State, following each exercise, conducts their own critique and established nethods where by the deficiencies observed are corrected. The State and local plans stipulate drills ard test of the various energency response conponents as well as the critique of how effective they were. These drills and tests provide for the activation of the various response system and procedures as well as radiological sartpling. We plans provide for the development of exercises which includes a listing of objectives, a scenario, and tine sequence of events. The text of the plans describes the development of a narrative ard the m terials which are developed for official observers during their evaluation of the exercise. The plans also outline the procedures that will be irtplerrented to ensure that corrective actions will be made to all plannlag deficiencies. O. Radicioalcal Emeroency Response Training: The State a M County plans include procedures for the phased training of appropriate energency response personnel. The State conducts public official ccnferences and per-exercise training. These training efforts usu611y involve State, local, and utility instructors. The State conducts this initial and refresher training for the energency response personnel directed at their area of responsibility during energencies. The training prograns, in addition to initial training, also includes refesher and retraining progratts that are sche 61ed annually. The training is designed to maintain energency worker proficiency ard can be requested at any tine. 19

Exercise Evaluation 'Su:tmary: A.

Introduction:

5.d , and 5.e, 1 In accordance with 44 CFR 350, Paragraphs 350.9, two neetings were conducted by FEMA within 48 hours of the conpletion of each Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station exercise. Both neetings provided a verbal narrative of the evaluation findings of the Davis-Besse exercise. The first neeting following the exercise was conducted with State and Local exercise participants. The second meeting was conducted with the public and news rtedia. Both neetings provided an opportunity to make connents concerning the FEMA exercise findings. Written connents were. requested from the Public at the close of the neeting.

• No written connents were received by FEMA Region V.

B. Narrative: The FEMA Region evaluation teans have evaluated four exercises resulting from a sinulated accident at the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station. Full participation joint exercises were on Novenber 6, 1980 and July 16, 1985. Partial participation joint ,

                  exercises were on April 13, 1983 and March 31, 1987.

The connents below address the March 31, 1987 Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station exercise. 20

The DBNPS radiologicial energency preparedness joint exercise was conducted , , on March 31, 1987 during nornal duty hours. The exercise participants I critique was held by FEMA at the DBNPS Administration Building _at 1:00 on I April 2, 1987. The public and nedia briefing was held jointly by FEMA ard tmC at 3:00 at the sane location.

                                          -State of Ohio                                                              t l

l 'Ihe State of Ohio selected twenty-three (23) objectives to be denonstrated-during the exercise. No dificiencies were identified. There were two (2) areas requiring corrective action identified. Fouc (4) reconmendations for inprove: tent are offered for consideration by the State of Ohio, i L This was a partial participation exercise for the State of Ohio, with only-the connunications, dose assess: tent and public information sections being fully staffed. The OSDA was able to effectively activate these three , sections of the State EOC following receipt and verification of the ALERT , I notification. The ODSA, OE PA, ODOH, Governor's representative erd Toledo l Edison liason were present in the State EOC. Staff assigned to the Emergency Coordination Center, the Joint Public Information Center and field nonitoring teams were also nobilized and dispatched at the ALERT level. 24-hour staffing capability was evidenced by double staffing or by i presentation of a roster. The ODSA Deputy Director was effectively in charge of the EOC operations. The dose assesnent group and the comunications group worked well together, with the comtunications group receiving the infornation from the field teams and forwarding it to the dose assessment group. Message handling was efficient. The State of Ohio requested federal assistance from both the DOE and FEMA. , The EOC facilities and anenities_ are adequate to support the energency response activities. There was a dedicated telephone, datafax, cotmercial telephone and ODSA radio net available to support comtonications with the various locations and organizations responding to the sinulated energency at the DBNPS. All of the above comunications systens were effectively > dettonstrated during the exercise, particularly radio comtonications with t' cortmunications van ard the field rtonioring teams. There was space set aside in the Energency Coordination Center at the DBNPS Administration Building. ' for the State and Ottawa County representatives. The State and County had full access to the displays and for consultation with utility personnel in the ECC. The dose assessnent room in the State EOC was adequate for performing the functions assigned to the staft located there. Noteworthy is the microconputer for performing dispersion calculation. The conputer also maintains a data base of population density and evacuation studies that is useful for neking protective action recomiendations. These recomiendations

   '    were also based on plant conditions, data from the field monitoring tearts and predetermined actions associated with emergency classification levels.

The dose assessement group provided tirrely protective action recormendations to the Counties on three occasions during the exercise. The Counties i initiated public alerting and notification based on the recomiendations they received from the State and the utility. 21

The ODSA and OCPA nobilized field nonitoring teans from Colurbus and Bowling Green, respectively. The teans were properly equipped and denonstrated the appropriate procedures for air, soil, vegetation and surface water sanple collection. The opportunity to denonstrate snow collection procedures was missed. It is recormended that the field nonitoring SOP's describe in greater detail the recently nodified operating procedures for the nultipurpose survey instrunent. It is also reconnended that the State of Ohio review its field nonitoring training and procedures to determine if they should be revised to reduce the potential for contamination of equipnent. The ODOH Northwest District Office denonstrated milk sangling procedures during the exercise. The team was properly equipped for sangling milk, .had personal dosimetry, maps and SOP's,- and perforned their duties in a professional and effective manner. It is reconcended that the milk sanpling team be equipoed with a two-way radio to facilitate communications. All sanples collected were taken to the Frenont Airport where the sanples ware consolidated, screened by the ODOH staff, transferred to an Ohio National Guard helicopter and transported to Colunbus for labortory analysis. The procedures for the transport of field nenitoring sanples should be reviewed with personnel of the Ohio National Guard. Based on release rates provided by the utility and later ccnfirmed by deposition neasurenents, the ODOH used plune diparsion rtodels to make recortnendations to dairy farners. The ODOH maintains a data base on the sources of milk. The deta base contains the location, owners nane and telephone nunber for dairy farns and processing plants. The field nonitoring teans were equipped with d'osinetry kits containing personal dositteters, record card, dosimeter chargers and TLDs. They were knowledgable of exposure limits, reading dosineters and procedures for decontamination. Their radiological exposure was nonitored by the field team director. Based on its calculation of a potential thyroid dose in excess of 25 REM, the State of Ohio reconnended the use of KI by institutionalized individuals and energency workers in the ten (10) mile EPZ in accordance with the current KI policy. However, the distribution of KI could not be fully demonstrated because the State had not uniformly resolved its policy concerning the use of KI by institationalized individuals and by energency workers within the distributed in accordance with the final policy. Note: Since the Davis-Besse exercise the State of Ohio on May 22, 1987 approved it's policy on the use of KI. The State has the capability to brief the nedia at the State EOC, however, there was no nedia present during the exercise. All media briefings were handled at the JPIC which is located in the DBNPS Administration Building. During the exercise there was a sinulated JPIC relocated to the alternate JPIC at the Toledo Edison in downtown 'IOLEDO. It is reconnended that this f future radiological energency alternate JPIC be utilized during a preparedness joint exercise. 22.

 'Ihe JPIC facility has sufficient space ard resources to - acconodate the various PIOS and the nedia. During the exercise six:(6) nedia briefings were corducted.      The PIOS effectively coordinated the - infornation to be presented to the nedia prior to the briefing. There was a separate room set aside for this purpose. Twenty-four (24) periodic neus releases were also distributed at the JPIC. These releases were well coordinated and contained                        ,

general infornation ard inforriation from the County EBS nessages. Runor control was established at the JPIC. The rumor control staff was effective in coordinating responses to simulated public inquiries. The State, County ard utility runor contn1 telephone nunbero were provided during briefings ard in the news releas3s at the JPIC. Ottawa County Ottawa County selected twenty-for (24) objectives'to be denonstrated during the exercise. All of the objectives were successfully demonstrated by Ottawa County. No deficiencies, areas requiring corrective action or reconnendations were identified. The Ottawa County EOC consisting of the Executive Group and the operational , staff nrbilized their staff and activated the EOC according to their plan. t Around the clock staffing capability was denonstrated by the presentation of a roster or by double staffing Their facility is located in the basenent of the Ottawa County Court house i Annex and is a facility which has been specially designed ard - equipped to support the staff during energencies. Classification levels were posted,- l status boards were naintained ard all of the appropriate naps and displays l were posted. The staff is well trained and dertonstrated an effective response capability to deal with the DBNPS emergency as well as additional minor energencies that were sirtolated to have occurred during the incident . at the utility. The President, Ottawa County Board of Corrrnissioners, was effectively in diarge of Ottawa County actions. The. EOC staff were involved in the decision naking process ard Ottawa County emergency activities were coordinated with Lucas County. The staff, utilizing prinary as well as alternate means of contuanication, denonstrated their ability to coordinate with those organizations intended-to provide support to the errergency response. There were two dedicated telephone systems in use. One system interlinks the utilitly with the State of Ohio, Ottawa County ard Lucas County. The second system interlinks Lucas County ard Ottawa County. Contreccial telephone was the prinary means of cortinunication for the EOC staff. ARES radios were utilized as backup to contact field locations such as reception and congregate care centers and the~ decontamination station. I The County effectively acted on three protective action recontiendations ! which included activating the siren system ard by providing errergency instructions to the public through EBS. In each case siren and EBS activation were coordinated with Lucas County and accortplished within fif' teen minutes. The

                                                                                        .q affected areas were described in terms of familiar . boundaries                 ard lardmarks.      Appropriate infornation to evacuees,      transients ard sheltered populations were provided in the EBS nessages.
                                                      ~

1 Utilizing existing inclenent weather conditions, experienced- during the exercise, the staf f prepared themselves to deal with any inpedinents which - could be experienced while i glenenting any conbination of protective action reconnendations. The County ensured that nedia releases at the JPIC.were coordinated and that EBS nessages were concise. A runor control system was established in the EOC to respord to inquiries from concerned citizens. Should evacuation occur, the County is able to establish control points to nonitor access to the affected areas. Two traffic control points were established in the field during the exercise.  ! The Benton-Carroll-Salem School District and the Carroll Elenentary School participsted in alerting and activating their school evacuation plan. The denonstration included trobilizing and equipping bus drivers to carry out their evacuation procedures. The students at the Carroll School were loaded into their buses. The school facility was secured and a notice left for parents identify the location of their children. An energency worker decontaminaton station was dettonstrated at the Clay-Genoa Volunteer Fire Departnent. The staff denonstrated proficiency in the l use of equipment ard the procedures-for the decontamination of - errergency workers and their vehicles. The corrective action for a weakness from the l previous exercise was denonstrated and the weakness did not recur. A mid-County. EMS anbulance crew demonstrated the equipnent aid ' procedures for effectively handling a contaminated individual. The anbulance crew was l well trained and properly equipped. l In a separate nedical drill conducted on Septenber 11,. 1986, . the Energency i Room staff of the Frenont Menorial Hospital in Frenont detronstrated the facilities ard procedures for handling a contaminated injured individual. The hospital staff were knowledgeable of their responsibilities and capably , dertonatrated the treatment and decontamination of the patient. A Carroll Township ~ EMS anbulance crew denonstrated the equipnent and procedures for effectively handling a contaminated injured individual. The anbulance crew was well trained and properly equipped. l Officials at the Ottawa National Wildlife Refuge, the Crane Creek State Park and the Crane Creek Wildlife Experinent Station were interviewed during the exercise. Message logs indicated that notificaton had been received from-l both the Ottawa County Sheriff and the ODSA during the ALERT classificaton as per the plan. The Officers-in-Charge had SOP manuals ard personal  ; dosimetry kits. They were knowledgable of the necessary protective actions ' I_ and had received appropriate training. Public instructions would be provided by various neans including bu11 horns, boats are public address systens in vehicles. 24

l Emergency workers performing tasks in the field were checked to see if adequate procedures were inplenented to provide them with adequate personal dosinetry. Dosinetry kits contained the appropriate dosirretry atd energency i workers were aware of their responsibility to report hourly readings to the i responsibile officials. In- the absence of the final State procedures for l the use of KI and a supply of KI, Ottawa County sinulated the issuance and administering of KI by energency workers when instructed to do so by the State.  ; 1 Although it was not an exercise objective the executive group as well as  ! interested staff remained in the EOC after conpletion of the exercise to I discuss the procedures they may-anticipate a while inglertenting recovery ard I reentry procedures. They discussed procedures for returning their contronity to a normal condition as quickly as possible while ensuring that the health and welfare of the affected population was well cared for. Erie Cocnty Erie County served as a host County for sone of the sinulated Ottawa County evacuees. As such there were no exercise objectives specifically selected by Erie Cou*.y. However, the two (2) objectives related to the relocation ard congregoce care centers selected by Ottawa County were also evaluated in Erie County. No deficiencies or areas requiring corrective action were identified. Two (2) reconnendations for inprovettent are offered for consideration by Erie County as well as other host counties. The Erie County EOC was activated following receipt of the SITE AREA EMERGENCY notification from Ottawa County. The re,sponsibility of the EOC staff was to coordinate energency services (law enforcenent,_ fire and rescue) and facilitate the activation and operation of the reception and congregatecare centers. Telephones and radios were the primary neans of conttunication between- the Erie County EOC and the field locations as well as Ottawa County. Once the Erie County EOC was activated, the EUC staff placed appropriate reception atd congregate care center personnel on standby. The reception center was located at the Sandusky High School and the -congregate care center at the Jackson. Junior High School. These two facilities were activated within one hour of the receipt of the GENERAL EMERGENCY notification. I Sinulated evacuees were monitored, decontaminated _ as appropriate, and registered at the relocation center and then transported to the congregate care center. The congregate care facility was adequate to house the 200 evacuees as stated in the plan. The facility was laid out with a nursing station, kitchen facilities, recreation area, sleeping areas, shower and toliet facilities, ard separate areas for mothers with infants and people with. illnesses. The staff conducting the activities.at both centers were knowledgable of their emergency responsibilities and demonctrated a high h level of training as they effectively carried out their assignrrents. It is reconnended that JPIC news release.a be routinely distributed to the host Counties, either to the EOC or directly to the congregate care centers. This information would be of interest to evacuees and useful for the handling of ruttor control at the care centers.

There were significant periods of inactivity in the EOC and following fit:16 denonstrations during the exercise. It is recormended that the controllerp inject " free play" activities to drive actions by the staff during these perio$s and that consideration be given to terminating field activities once the objectives have been denonstrated and the evaluation at that location is complete. I Lucas County Lucas County selected twenty-four (24) objectives to be denonstrated during the exercise. All of the objectives were successfully denonstrated by Lucas County. No deficiencies or areas requiring corrective action were identified. Four (4) recormendations for inprovertent are offered for consideration by Lucas Coutny. , Partial trobilization of the Lucas County EOC staff began when the DBNPS infortred the Lucas County Sherriff's dispatch center that an UNUSUAL EVENT  ! had occurred. Partial activation of the EOC began following receipt of the ALERT notification from the utility.- Conpletion of the EOO activation  ; occurred af ter receipt of the SITE AREA EMERGENCY notification. The EOO was  ! fully staffed with arourd the clock staf fing capability dettonstrated by 1 l presentation of a roste; or replacenent staff. The Lucas County EOC Executive Group consists of the three -Lucas County Board of Cortmissioners, the Lucas County Sheriff, the Lucas County Disaster Services Director, ard a Jerusalem Township Trustee. The Mayors of the Cities of Oregon and Toledo are optional trenbers of the Lucas County Executive Group. The president, Lucas County Board of Cortmissioners, was effectively in charge of Luces County actions. The EOC staff were involved'in the decision making process ard Lucas County energency activities were coordinated with Ottawa County. It is recormended that the EOC staff be nore involved in making presentations of their key responsa activities during EOC briefings. The newly developed EOC is located in the sub-basertent of the Lucas County Correctional Facility in Toledo. This facility is spacious, well lighted with sufficient anenities to support emergency staf f for 'an exterded period of tine. Classification levels were posted, status boards were treintained and all of the appropriate maps and displays were posted. 1 There were two dedicated telephone syste:ts in use. One system interlinks the utility with the State of Ohio, Ottawa County and Lucas County. The  ; second system interlinks Lucas County with Ottawa County. Cottmercial telephone was the primary neans of cortmunication for the EOC stafE. ARES radios were utilized as backup to contact field locations such as reception and congregate care centers and the decontamination station. County Sheriff's dispatch center radios provide a neans of backup cortmanication. Not all of the planned radio systens are currently installed. They are fg scheduled for installation in the near future. There was a hard copy d datafax capability to the JPIC, Ottawa County and the State EOC. 26 i

Lucas County considered both the utility and the State protective action reconnendations ard other factors such as plant status, evacuation tine estirretes ard weather in fornulating the protective actions taken by the County. Three protective actions to shelter ard/or evacuate people and shelter livestock were inglenented by the County during the exercise. The County initiated action to prongtly alert and notify the public of protective action reconnendations three tines during the exercise. In each case siren and EBS activation were coordinated with Ottawa County and acconplished within fifteen minutes. The affected areas were described in terns of familiar bourdaries and landmarks. Appropriate infornation to evacuees, transients ard sheltered populations were provided in the EBS nessages ard the news releases at the JPIC. The EOC staff determined the appropriate traffic and access control points for each protective action reconnendation. One access control point was nenned by the Sherif f's Departaent. The deputy was knowledgable about his duties, evacuation routes and the location of the reception and congregate care centers and the decontamination station. He had the appropriate dosinetry and was knowledgable about its use, reporting requirenents and the Itaxirrum allowable exposure levels. Each agency had a Dosimetry Coordinator who neintains a written record of their workers' radiological exposure. Each emergency worker was instructed to provided hourly reports of exposure to his Dosinetry Coordinator. The Dosittetty Coordinators were instructed to contact the Lucas County Radiological Operations Officer only if dings reached 1, 5 or 15 rads. It is recortnended that each Dosimetry coordinator provide periodic status reports to the' Radiological Operations Officer so he can rtonitor ettergency . worker exposure levels ard ensure that effective monitoring is being accortplished. In the absence of the final State procedures for the use of KI and a supply of KI, Lucas County simulated the issuance ard administering of KI by energency workers when instructed to do so by the State. A sittulated traffic obstruction on SR2 was handled by the EOC staff. Traffic was routed arourd the obstruction until its sirtolated renoval by the Ohio National Guard. A list of mobility inpaired irdividuals is maintained by the Jerusalem Township Fire Departnent . Transportation for the sinulated evacuation of the trobility irtpaired individuals was provided by the Regional Energency Medical Services of Northern Ohio (REMSNO) . There are no schools within the Lucas 'ounty portion of the 10-mile EPZ. As a precaution, the Jerusalem Elemen.ary School was relocated to the Eisenhower Junior High School. Relocatan procedures were reviewed with the Superintendent, the Transportation Director and the Business Manager of the Oregon School System, the principals of the two schools atd a bus driver. It is *reconnended that the natte of the Dosimetry Coordinator and the policy that horteroom teachers accortpany their students be specified in the SOPS. 27

Following receipt of the SITE AREA EMBRT NCY notification the EOC staff placed appropriate reception anS congregate care center and decontamination station personnel on standby. .ictivation of these facilities was initiated after receipt of the GENSRAL EMER T NCY notification and were fully activated within an hour.

    'Ihe City of Oregon Fire Departnent and Lucas County Hunan Serview denonstrated the pt acedures for radiological rtonitoring, decontamination a, registration of a sirtolated evacuee at the reception center which w.

located at the Eisenhower Junior High School in Oregon. The staff-conducting these activities were knowledgable of 'their duties atd  ! denonstrated the capability to carry out their assignments reflecting a high l level of prior training. The radiological rionioring staff was equipped with  ! personal dosinertry and were knowledgable about its use.  ; Once registered evacuees would be transported to a congregate care center by bus. One such facility was denonstrated at the Clay High School in Oregon , which was staf fed by the Red Cross. The facility had access to sufflulent resources to handle the 230 sinclated evacuees. The staff was knowledgable of their energency responsibilities. An energency worker decontamination station was de:tonstrated at tho l Jerusalem Township Fire Departnent. The appropriate resources fo:  ! decontamination of personnel and vehicles are maintained at this facility. The staff dettonstrated proficiency in the use of equipnent and procedures j for decontamination of two energency workers and om vehicle. ' The Jerusalem Township Fire Departnant also denonstrated the equipment and procedures to handle and transport a contaminated injured individual. The  ! artbulance crew was well trained and properly equipped. They demonstrated the capability of establishing connunications with the appropriate hospital, e Lucas County EOC and a traffic control point. In a separate nodical drill, the Emergency Room staff of the St. Charles  ! Hospital in Oregon demonstrated the facilities and procedures for handling a ' contamianted injured individual. The hospital staff were knowledgeable of their responsibilities and capably demonstrated the treatnent and decontamination of the patient. The Lucas County public infornation liaison in the EOC coordinated information with the Lucas County PIO at the JPIC. Runor control activities were also coordinated with the Lucas County PIO at the JPIC. A ru:ror control station was established in the EOC ard its telephone nu:tber announced over EBS, in news releases and at JPIC briefings. The Lucas County PIO denonatrated adequate training and knowledge of his duties. He ef fectively cocrdinated inforrtation with the other spokespersons at the JPIC atd participated in all of the JPIC briefings. There were significant periods of inactivity in the EOC and following field domonstrations during the exercise. It is reconnended that the controllers inject " free Play" activities to drive action: by the staff during these f periods ard that consideration be given to terminating field activities once the objectives have been demonstrated and the evaluation at that location is ccaplete. 28

20 for the RAC to provide assistant to state 21 and local governments in their radiological

I r 1 one of five major responsibilities of the , ,-( ' i ' ! 2 RAC. 3 First, RAC provides and has 4 provided the past two years guidance and 5 planning assistance. Basically that has 6 been to the state and local government. 7 During the development of the Davis Besse 8 offsite plan, the RAC, either as a whole 9 or by individual agencies assisted the 10 state and local planners in this plan t la formulation. Assistance would take the 1 12 form of meetings, detailed discussions and r2

   -(     13     offer interpretation of guidance materials.

h 14 Second; RAC offers evaluation of

0 15 state and local plans. During the planning 16 process, RAC informally reviewed -- and I 17 will indicate later, at one point formally 18 reviewed the Davis Besse offsite plans 19 against the planning standards of -1 20 NUREG-0654, FEMA-REP-1, Revision 1, which  ; 21 is the Federal Planning Guide for state and

..        22     local gevernments to help develop those l          23.,   plans.

(~N 1 We also offered other guidance N 2 material and these reviewed comments are 3 considered by the state and 1 :> c a : planners 4 in their preparation of the final plans. , 5 Following the submittal of the 6 final Davis Besse offsite plans of FEMA by 7 former Governor Rhodes, the RAC did * ) 8 complete a formal review for the record by 9 the State of Ohio and I will talk more on 10 this particular point later. t 11 Third, the RAC has responsibility - h g 12 and can help in the design of the exercises

        ?

5 18 evaluation of radiological emergency 8  ! 15 preparedness exercises. The RAC can m 16 provide assistance in the design of 17 exercises, but in this case our role is 18 limited mostly to the evaluation of the 19 exercises. 20 Specifically, during these 21 exercises we evaluated the Davis Besse 22 offsite plans themselves, consisting of 23., state and local government, the state and 1 I i GAINES REPORTING SERYlCE.

11 i i (~ - 1 government knowledge of their plans and the I  ! 2 ability of state and local government to 3 implement the plans. 4 When problems occurred during the 5 exercises, the RAC provided suggestions to I 6 overcome these problems such as changes in 7 the plan, additional training for 8 participants, et cetera. I will talk more 9 on exercises a little bit later. 10 The fourth area of responsibility g 11 for RAC is in the area of continuing review 1 12 of plans. The Davis Besse plan is not a

j 24 then put on a shelf to gather dust. This G 15 is a dynamic document that must be l- 16 constantly reviewed and updated to meet 17 ever changing conditions. Specifically 18 FEMA and the RAC review these periodic I - 19 updates on a continuing basis, ] 00 Lastly, RAC has responsibility in . 21 the area of training. RAC assesses the

--         22   level of training which is identified in 23 , the Davis Besse Plan which state and local (b\

       ,      1  emergency workers demonstrate during 2   exercises.          RAC may assist in the 3   development of the training courses and 4   provide training for specific state and 5  local emergency workers either at their
  !           6  request or as a result of weaknesses 7  identified during exercises.

8 Very briefly, then that's the role 9 of the Regional Assistance Committee Il 10 commonly referred to as RAC. Now, I will t la switch hats and I'll address the FEMA'u g 12 role. As you may have gathered by now, the f-s I (I 13 process leading up to the IAc nsing of a 3 14 commerical nuclear power facility is quite ' 5  ! 15 complex.  ? 16 For planning purposes, preparedness 17 can ce split roughly into two parts. There ! i 18 is the on-site which is the utility and the  ! 19 offsite which is state and local 20 government. 21 Before we simplify this though and

    .       22   give you the wrong impression, let me 23., assure you that each of these two GAISES REPORTING SER\'lCE, INC.

18 What are the specific steps leading l

19 up to the approval by FEMA of the Davis j 20 Besse offsite Plan? Well, obviously, the 21 first step is the development of the plan 22 itself, obviously that process is when the 23., governor of a state or his designated state l GAINES REPORTING SER\'!CE.

FEMA 9 acknowledged the Governor's submittal, and 10 then on April 13, 1981, published a notice g 11 in the Federal Register announcing receipt

1 When we are evaluating state and , 2 local government during a radiological  : 3 emergency exercise we are looking for , 4 weaknesses. We also want to identify 5 strong points but the primary concern would 6 be in finding weaknesses, if any, in the 7 planning or in the implementation of the , 8 plan. 9 In that sense we have a weakness Le 10 defined as a deficiency. A deficiency is,

,,       p 11   if that event happened or failed to happen 12   during a real emergency the public health                                   ,

(,b) 2 14 In that sense it is a very serious 8 15 weakness. 16 The second category of weakness i 17 that we need to categorize and evaluate is-18 the area requiring corrective action. What j 19 this is, the event observed during the 20 exercise would not affect public health and 21 safety if it had occurred during a real

.          22   emergency.         The issue is serious enough, 23.. though, that FEMA requires a schedule of

4 -The event observed during the j 5 exercise would not affect public health and 6 safety if it had occurred during a real 7 emergency. The issue is brought to the 8 attention of state and local government as 9 a recommendation to improve plans and I 10 operations.

They evacuated everyone , l 7 within 19 miles.

The bus drivers did indicate their 5 willingness to participate.

Dear Mr. Connor The State of Ohio, acting within the guidance of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) and the Federal Emergency Management Agency, '

                           *,                                    has prepared a plan for Ohio citizens in the event that,a nuclear power i

plant incident should have significant offsite involvement. This Plan - entitled "The Ohio Plan for Response To Radiation Emergencies at Licensed l Nuclear Facilities" has been developed with close coordination between l - - state agencies and local government. The plan is designed to provide an i

                                ')                              overall state plan approach. It allows for the inclusion of each county l                                                  '

plan where that county lies within a 10 mile Emergency Planning Zone, as i an annex to the plan. ' It it the opinion of this Administration that the plan as developed is adequate to protect the public health and safety of the citizens of Ohio . in general and specifically those living near the Davis Bessa Nuclear Power Station. As the requirement arises, additional piens will be added for nuclear reactors built at other locations in Ohio. The Ohio Disaster Services Agency coordinated the development of this plan and worked closely with the FEMA chaired Regional Advisory Committee. After numerous reviews and comments all resolution points have been included in the plans now submitted. The criteria have been rigidly adhered to and it is felt that in many cases the plan goes beyond the federal guideline minimal requirements. It is now requested that a formal review of the Ohio Plan be made with the appropriate comments forwarded thru the FEMA National office to the ' NRC. Your reviews and evaluations have been most helpful previously and it is our' hope that tne FEMA National recommendations to the NRC will . result in favorable action in comments on the Ohio Plan.
