EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
On June 30, 2010, a Host Community Reception Center Drill was conducted in Windham,
Connecticut. The purpose of this drill was to assess the capability of the Windham Emergency
Management Personnel to respond to a radiological incident involving the Millstone Power
Station. This drill was held in accordance with FEMA's policies and guidance concerning the
exercise of State and Local Radiological Emergency Response Plans (RERP) and procedures.
FEMA wishes to acknowledge the efforts of the many individuals in the State of Connecticut, the
Support Jurisdiction of the Town of Windham, and the numererous volunteers who participated
in this drill.
Protecting the public health and safety is the full-time job of some of the Exercise participants
and an additional assigned responsibility for others. Still others have willingly sought this
responsibility as volunteers providing vital emergency services twenty four (24) hours to the
communities in which they live. Cooperation and teamwork of all the participants was observed
during this drill.
This report contains the final evaluation of the Windham Host Community Reception Center
Drill.
The Windham Host Community Emergency Management Response Organizations, Fire
Department Personnel, and Volunteers successfully demonstrated their knowledge to implement
their emergency response plans and procedures. There were no deficiencies. There were three
Areas Requiring Corrective Action that were re-demonstrated successfully on the spot. There
were two Areas Requiring Corrective Action from a prior exercise that were cleared through a
successful demonstration.

SECTION 2: EXERCISE DESIGN SUMMARY2.1 Exercise Purpose and Design
On December 7, 1979, the President directed FEMA to assume the lead responsibility for all
offsite nuclear planning and response. FEMA’s activities are conducted pursuant to 44 Code of
Federal Regulations (CFR) Parts 350, 351, and 352. These regulations are a key element in the
Radiological Emergency Preparedness (REP) Program that was established following the Three
Mile Island Nuclear Station accident in March 1979.
FEMA Rule 44 CFR 350 establishes the policies and procedures for FEMA's initial and
continued approval of State and local governments’ radiological emergency planning and
preparedness for commercial nuclear power plants. This approval is contingent, in part, on State
and local government participation in joint exercises with licensees.
FEMA's responsibilities in radiological emergency planning for fixed nuclear facilities include
the following:
A. Taking the lead in offsite emergency planning and in the review and evaluation of RERPs and
procedures developed by State and local governments;
B. Determining whether such plans and procedures can be implemented on the basis of
observation and evaluation of exercises of the plans and procedures conducted by State and local
governments;
C. Responding to requests by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) pursuant to the
Memorandum of Understanding between the NRC and FEMA dated June 17, 1993 (Federal
Register, Vol. 58, No. 176, September 14, 1993); and
D. Coordinating the activities of Federal agencies with responsibilities in the radiological
emergency planning process:
U.S. Department of Commerce
U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
U.S. Department of Energy

In summary, the status of DHS/FEMA criteria for this location is as follows:
MET: 6.a.1, 6.b.1.
AREAS REQUIRING CORRECTIVE ACTION: 6.a.1.
ISSUE NO.: 38-10-6a1-A-01
CRITERION: The reception center facility has appropriate space, adequate
resources, and trained personnel to provide monitoring, decontamination, and
registration of evacuees.
CONDITION: The team at the portal monitors was initially using outdated versions
of their procedures (HCP-4.5, Rev 08/03 and HCP-4.5, Rev 01/10).
POSSIBLE CAUSE: The team used the procedures they had found in the portal
monitor container, which was an outdated version. The accompanying materials box
had the correct version of the procedures.
REFERENCE: HCP-4.5, Rev 5/10; NUREG 0654, J.10.h; J.12; K.5.b.
EFFECT: If the procedures had changed, the team could have missed any updates.
CORRECTIVE ACTION DEMONSTRATED: Through discussion with the
controller and evaluator, the team re-demonstrated use of the latest procedures, dated
05/10, which were included in the accompanying materials box. Once they were
referencing the correct procedures, the team re-checked their work to ensure they
were in compliance.
ISSUE NO.: 38-10-6a1-A-02
CRITERION: The reception center facility has appropriate space, adequate
resources, and trained personnel to provide monitoring, decontamination, and
registration of evacuees.
15
UnclassifiedRadiological Emergency Preparedness Program (REP)
After Action Report/Improvement Plan Millstone Power Station
_____________________________________________________________________
CONDITION: The team at the portal monitors monitored the presentation pad at one
of the monitors using a CDV-700 survey meter to ensure it was not contaminated.
While doing so, the worker doing the monitoring allowed the cord of the instrument
to drag along the pad.
POSSIBLE CAUSE: The worker may not have been aware of the correct method to
monitor the pad.
REFERENCE: HCP-4.5, Rev 5/10; NUREG 0654, J.10.h; J.12; K.5.b.
EFFECT: Dragging the cord could have spread contamination in a real event.
CORRECTIVE ACTION DEMONSTRATED: The controller stopped play, trained
the worker on proper monitoring procedure, and the worker re-demonstrated the task
successfully.
ISSUE NO.: 38-10-6a1-A-03
CRITERION: The reception center facility has appropriate space, adequate
resources, and trained personnel to provide monitoring, decontamination, and
registration of evacuees.
CONDITION: Per procedure HCP 4.5b, Rev 05/10, page 4 of 14, workers at the
secondary monitoring station were to ask contaminated individuals if their car
alarmed the portal and report relevant information via radio to the vehicle monitoring
team for follow-up if necessary. During the exercise, workers were unaware of this
requirement and how to perform it.
POSSIBLE CAUSE: Workers were new to their positions and may not have been
familiar with this portion of their procedures.
REFERENCE: HCP 4.5b, Rev 05/10, page 4 of 14; NUREG 0654, J.10.h; J.12;

3.3.1.8 Windham Reception Center Vehicle Mon-Decon & Traffic
In summary, the status of DHS/FEMA criteria for this location is as follows:
MET: 3.d.1, 6.b.1.
AREAS REQUIRING CORRECTIVE ACTION: None
DEFICIENCY: None
PLAN ISSUES: None
NOT DEMONSTRATED: None
PRIOR ISSUES - RESOLVED: 3.d.1, 6.b.1.
ISSUE NO.: 38-03-3d1-A-11
ISSUE: Due to the need for personnel to direct vehicles along an elongated route into
the vehicle monitoring area, personnel from the clean vehicle parking area were
reassigned. This left only one person in the “Clean Parking Lot” to register vehicles.
A line began to form and was beginning to affect the ability of additional vehicles to
exit the portal monitor. There was no actual obstruction during the drill but sufficient
personnel need to be assigned to the “Clean Parking Lot” so that vehicle information
can be recorded at the parking space. This will free up the area leading into the lot
and not cause a backup during a true event.
CORRECTIVE ACTION DEMONSTRATED: Traffic control was successfully set-

up with cones and emergency workers on the road leading to the automobile portal
monitor. Once determined a clean vehicle, they instructed the driver to the clean
parking lot. If the vechicle was determined dirt/contaminated, they instructed the
driver to the dirty parking lot. This was demonstrated successfully in accordance to
plans and procedures.
ISSUE NO.: 38-03-6b1-A-12
ISSUE: A greeter in the vehicle monitoring area was observed placing a hand on two
of the first three vehicles coming into the vehicle monitoring area. Although he
realized what he had done he took no action to determine if he was contaminated or
not. A vehicle monitoring team member logging contaminated vehicles placed a
clipboard on the hood of a contaminated vehicle in the contaminated vehicle parking
lot.
CORRECTIVE ACTION DEMONSTRATED: A past ARCA indicated Vehicle
Monitoring Staff had touched vehicles prior to monitoring. This was not observed at
this drill. Team members did not touch vehicle exteriors, interiors or occupants of
vehicles deemed contaminated.
PRIOR ISSUES - UNRESOLVED: None

_____________________________________________________________________
within the emergency planning zone (EPZ), Federal emergency response organizations, the licensee and its facilities, emergency operations centers (EOC), and field teams. EXTENT OF PLAY - GENERAL OROs will demonstrate that a primary, and at least one backup system, are fully functional at the beginning of an exercise. If a communications system or systems are not functional, but exercise performance is not affected, no exercise issue will be assessed. Communications equipment and procedures for facilities and field units should be used as needed for the transmission and receipt of exercise messages. All facilities and field teams should have the capability to access at least one communication system that is independent of the commercial telephone system. Responsible OROs should demonstrate the capability to manage the communication systems and ensure that all message traffic is handled without delays that might disrupt the conduct of emergency operations. OROs should ensure that a coordinated communication link for fixed and mobile medical support facilities exist. The specific communications capabilities of OROs should be commensurate with that specified in the response plan and/or procedures. Exercise scenarios could require the failure of a communications system and the use of an alternate system. All activities associated with the management of communications capabilities must be demonstrated based on the ORO’s plans and procedures and completed as they would be in an actual emergency, unless noted above or otherwise indicated in the extent of play agreement. EXTENT OF PLAY - SPECIFIC 1. Communications checks will be demonstrated throughout the Reception Center, and
between Windham Emergency Management and the Region 4 Office, and between the Windham EOC and the Reception Center.

_____________________________________________________________________
INTENT This sub-element is derived from NUREG-0654, which provides that OROs have emergency equipment and supplies adequate to support the emergency response. EXTENT OF PLAY - GENERAL Equipment within the facility(ies) should be sufficient and consistent with the role assigned to that facility in the ORO’s plans and/or procedures in support of emergency operations. Use of maps and displays is encouraged. All instruments, including air sampling flow meters (field teams only), should be inspected, inventoried, and operationally checked before each use. They should be calibrated in accordance with the manufacturer’s recommendations (or at least annually for the unmodified CDV-700 series or if there are no manufacturer’s recommendations for a specific instrument; modified CDV-700 instruments should be calibrated in accordance with the recommendation of the modification manufacturer.). A label indicating such calibration should be on each instrument or verifiable by other means. Note: Field team equipment is evaluated under 4.a.1; radiological laboratory equipment under 4.c.1; reception center and emergency worker facilities’ equipment is evaluated under 6.a.1; and ambulance and medical facilities’ equipment is evaluated under 6.d.1. Sufficient quantities of appropriate direct-reading and permanent record dosimetry and dosimeter chargers should be available for issuance to all categories of emergency workers that could be deployed from that facility. Appropriate direct-reading dosimeters should allow individual(s) to read the administrative reporting limits and maximum exposure limits contained in the ORO’s plans and procedures. Dosimeters should be inspected for electrical leakage at least annually and replaced, if necessary. CDV-138s, due to their documented history of electrical leakage problems, should be inspected for electrical leakage at least quarterly and replaced if necessary. This leakage testing will be verified during the exercise, through documentation submitted in the Annual Letter of Certification, and/or through a staff assistance visit. Responsible OROs should demonstrate the capability to maintain inventories of KI sufficient for use by emergency workers, as indicated on rosters; institutionalized individuals, as indicated in capacity lists for facilities; and, where stipulated by the plan and/or procedures, members of the general public (including transients) within the plume pathway EPZ.
Quantities of dosimetry and KI available and storage locations(s) will be confirmed by physical inspection at storage location(s) or through documentation of current inventory submitted during the exercise, provided in the Annual Letter of Certification submission, and/or verified during a Staff Assistance Visit. Available supplies of KI should be within the expiration date indicated on KI bottles or blister packs. As an alternative, the ORO may produce a letter from FEMA
40
UnclassifiedRadiological Emergency Preparedness Program (REP)
After Action Report/Improvement Plan Millstone Power Station
_____________________________________________________________________
indicating that the KI supply remains potent, in accordance with Food and Drug Administration (FDA) guidance. FEMA issues these letters based upon the findings of the certified independent laboratory that performed the analysis at the ORO’s request and expense. At locations where traffic and access control personnel are deployed, appropriate equipment (e.g., vehicles, barriers, traffic cones and signs, etc.) should be available or their availability described. All activities must be based on the ORO’s plans and procedures and completed as they would be in an actual emergency, unless noted above or otherwise indicated in the extent of play agreement. EXTENT OF PLAY - SPECIFIC 1. A limited number of supplies (for demonstration purposes only) will be brought to the
Reception Center. 2. Immediate correction will be allowed if initially not being able to show proper equipment
supplies, or documentation. Areas Requiring Corrective Action (ARCA) NONE Evaluation Area 3 – Protective Action Implementation Sub-element 3.a.1. Implementation of Emergency Worker Exposure Control.
Criterion 3.a.1: The OROs issue appropriate dosimetry and procedures, and manage radiological exposure to emergency workers in accordance with the plans and procedures. Emergency workers periodically and at the end of each mission read their dosimeters and record the readings on the appropriate exposure record or chart. (NUREG-0654, K.3.) INTENT This sub-element is derived from NUREG-0654, which provides that OROs should have the capability to provide for the following: distribution, use, collection, and processing of direct-reading dosimeters and permanent record dosimeters; provide for direct-reading dosimeters to be read at appropriate frequencies by emergency workers; maintain a radiation dose record for each emergency worker; and provide for establishing a decision chain or authorization procedure for emergency workers to incur radiation exposures in excess of protective action guides, always applying the ALARA (As Low As is Reasonably Achievable) principle as appropriate. EXTENT OF PLAY - GENERAL OROs should demonstrate the capability to provide appropriate direct-reading and permanent record dosimetry, dosimetry chargers, and instructions on the use of dosimetry to emergency workers. For evaluation purposes, appropriate direct-reading dosimetry is defined as dosimetry that allows
41
UnclassifiedRadiological Emergency Preparedness Program (REP)
After Action Report/Improvement Plan Millstone Power Station
_____________________________________________________________________
individual(s) to read the administrative reporting limits (that are pre-established at a level low enough to consider subsequent calculation of Total Effective Dose Equivalent) and maximum exposure limits (for those emergency workers involved in life saving activities) contained in the OROs plans and procedures. Each emergency worker should have the basic knowledge of radiation exposure limits as specified in the ORO's plan and/or procedures. Procedures to monitor and record dosimeter readings and to manage radiological exposure control should be demonstrated. During a plume phase exercise, emergency workers should demonstrate the procedures to be followed when administrative exposure limits and turn-back values are reached. The emergency worker should report accumulated exposures during the exercise as indicated in the plans and procedures. OROs should demonstrate the actions described in the plan and/or procedures by determining whether to replace the worker, to authorize the worker to incur additional exposures or to take other actions. If scenario events do not require emergency workers to seek authorizations for additional exposure, evaluators should interview at least two emergency workers, to determine their knowledge of whom to contact in the event authorization is needed and at what exposure levels. Emergency workers may use any available resources (e.g. written procedures and/or co-workers) in providing responses. Although it is desirable for all emergency workers to each have a direct-reading dosimeter, there may be situations where team members will be in close proximity to each other during the entire mission and adequate control of exposure can be affected for all members of the team by one dosimeter worn by the team leader. Emergency workers who are assigned to low exposure rate areas, e.g., at reception centers, counting laboratories, emergency operations centers, and communications centers, may have individual direct-reading dosimeters or they may be monitored by dosimeters strategically placed in the work area. It should be noted that, even in these situations, each team member must still have their own permanent record dosimeter. Individuals without specific radiological response missions, such as farmers for animal care, essential utility service personnel, or other members of the public who must re-enter an evacuated area following or during the plume passage, should be limited to the lowest radiological exposure commensurate with completing their missions. All activities must be based on the ORO’s plans and procedures and completed as they would be in an actual emergency, unless noted above or otherwise indicated in the extent of play agreement. EXTENT OF PLAY - SPECIFIC 1. Dosimetry packets will be issued to a representative number of Reception Center
radiological emergency workers only. (Non-radiological emergency workers such as KI issue and registration staff will not be issued dosimetry.)
2. Radiological emergency worker knowledge will be demonstrated through evaluator interviews.

3. Immediate correction of issues relating to exposure control where remediation is
possible will be allowed. Areas Requiring Corrective Action (ARCA) None Evaluation Area 3 – Protective Action Implementation Sub-element 3.b.1 – Implementation of KI Decision
Criterion 3.b.1: KI and appropriate instructions are available should a decision to recommend use of KI be made. Appropriate record keeping of the administration of KI for emergency workers and institutionalized individuals is maintained. (NUREG-0654, E. 7., J. 10. e., f.) INTENT This sub-element is derived from NUREG-0654, which provides that OROs should have the capability to provide radio-protective drugs for emergency workers, institutionalized individuals, and, if in the plan and/or procedures, to the general public for whom immediate evacuation may not be feasible, very difficult, or significantly delayed. While it is necessary for OROs to have the capability to provide KI to emergency workers and institutionalized individuals, the provision of KI to the general public is an ORO option, reflected in ORO’s plans and procedures. Provisions should include the availability of adequate quantities, storage, and means of the distribution of radioprotective drugs. EXTENT OF PLAY - GENERAL OROs should demonstrate the capability to make KI available to emergency workers, institutionalized individuals, and, where provided for in the ORO plan and/or procedures, to members of the general public. OROs should demonstrate the capability to accomplish distribution of KI consistent with decisions made. Organizations should have the capability to develop and maintain lists of emergency workers and institutionalized individuals who have ingested KI, including documentation of the date(s) and time(s) they were instructed to ingest KI. The ingestion of KI recommended by the designated ORO health official is voluntary. For evaluation purposes, the actual ingestion of KI is not necessary. OROs should demonstrate the capability to formulate and disseminate appropriate instructions on the use of KI for those advised to take it. If a recommendation is made for the general public to take KI, appropriate information should be provided to the public by the means of notification specified in the ORO’s plan and/or procedures. Emergency workers should demonstrate the basic knowledge of procedures for the use of KI whether or not the scenario drives the use of KI. This can be accomplished by an interview with the evaluator.

All activities must be based on the ORO’s plans and procedures and completed, as they would be in an actual emergency, unless noted above or otherwise indicated in the extent of play agreement. EXTENT OF PLAY - SPECIFIC 1. The supply of general public (evacuee) KI will be available for evaluator inspection, only a
representative number of packets will be used for simulated distribution during the evaluated exercise.
2. Reception center staff will demonstrate the process, procedures and equipment for KI distribution and direction to ingest KI through discussion to simulated evacuees at the facility. KI will not be ingested by any drill participants.
Area Requiring Corrective Action (ARCA) NONE
Evaluation Area 3 – Protective Action Implementation Sub-element 3.d.1. Implementation of Traffic and Access Control –TCP/ACP are established.
Criterion 3.d.1: Appropriate traffic and access control is established. Accurate instructions are provided to traffic and access control personnel. (NUREG-0654, J.10.g., j., k.) INTENT This sub-element is derived from NUREG-0654, which provides that OROs have the capability to implement protective action plans, including relocation and restriction of access to evacuated areas. This sub-element focuses on selecting, establishing, and staffing of traffic and access control points and removal of impediments to the flow of evacuation traffic. EXTENT OF PLAY - GENERAL OROs should demonstrate the capability to select, establish, and staff appropriate traffic and access control points consistent with evacuation/sheltering decisions (for example evacuating, sheltering and relocation), in a timely manner. OROs should demonstrate the capability to provide instructions to traffic and access control staff on actions to take when modifications in protective action strategies necessitate changes in evacuation patterns or in the area(s) where access is controlled. Traffic and access control staff should demonstrate accurate knowledge of their roles and responsibilities. This capability may be demonstrated by actual deployment or by interview in accordance with the extent of play agreement.
44

_____________________________________________________________________
In instances where OROs lack authority necessary to control access by certain types of traffic (rail, water, and air traffic), they should demonstrate the capability to contact the State or Federal agencies with authority to control access. All activities must be based on the ORO’s plans and procedures and completed, as they would be in an actual emergency, unless specified above or indicated in the extent of play agreement. EXTENT OF PLAY - SPECIFIC 1. Traffic control points, designated in the plan, will not actually be posted by the police. Area Requiring Corrective Action (ARCA) NONE Evaluation Area 6 – Support Operations/Facilities Sub-element 6.a.1. Monitoring and Decontamination of Evacuees and Emergency Workers and Registration of Evacuees.
Criterion 6.a.1: The reception center/emergency worker facility has appropriate space, adequate resources, and trained personnel to provide monitoring, decontamination, and registration of evacuees and/or emergency workers. (NUREG-0654, J.10.h.; K.5.b.) INTENT This sub-element is derived from NUREG-0654, which provides that OROs have the capability to implement radiological monitoring and decontamination of evacuees and emergency workers, while minimizing contamination of the facility, and registration of evacuees at reception centers. EXTENT OF PLAY - GENERAL Radiological monitoring, decontamination, and registration facilities for evacuees/ emergency workers should be set up and demonstrated as they would be in an actual emergency or as indicated in the extent of play agreement. This would include adequate space for evacuees’ vehicles. Expected demonstration should include 1/3 of the monitoring teams/portal monitors required to monitor 20% of the population allocated to the facility within 12 hours. Prior to using a monitoring instrument(s), the monitor(s) should demonstrate the process of checking the instrument(s) for proper operation. Staff responsible for the radiological monitoring of evacuees should demonstrate the capability to attain and sustain a monitoring productivity rate per hour needed to monitor the 20% emergency planning zone (EPZ) population planning base within about 12 hours. This monitoring productivity rate per hour is the number of evacuees that can be monitored per hour by the total complement of monitors using an appropriate monitoring procedure. A minimum of six individuals per monitoring station should be monitored, using equipment and procedures specified in the plan and/or procedures, to allow demonstration of monitoring, decontamination, and registration capabilities. The monitoring sequences for the first six simulated evacuees per monitoring team will be timed by the evaluators in order to determine whether the twelve-hour requirement can be met. Monitoring of emergency workers does not
45
UnclassifiedRadiological Emergency Preparedness Program (REP)
After Action Report/Improvement Plan Millstone Power Station
_____________________________________________________________________
have to meet the twelve-hour requirement. However, appropriate monitoring procedures should be demonstrated for a minimum of two emergency workers.
Decontamination of evacuees/emergency workers may be simulated and conducted by interview. The availability of provisions for separately showering should be demonstrated or explained. The staff should demonstrate provisions for limiting the spread of contamination. Provisions could include floor coverings, signs and appropriate means (e.g. partitions, roped-off areas) to separate clean from potentially contaminated areas. Provisions should also exist to separate contaminated and uncontaminated individuals, provide changes of clothing for individuals whose clothing is contaminated, and store contaminated clothing and personal belongings to prevent further contamination of evacuees or facilities. In addition, for any individual found to be contaminated, procedures should be discussed concerning the handling of potential contamination of vehicles and personal belongings. Monitoring personnel should explain the use of action levels for determining the need for decontamination. They should also explain the procedures for referring evacuees who cannot be adequately decontaminated for assessment and follow up in accordance with the ORO’s plans and procedures. Contamination of the individual will be determined by controller inject and not simulated with any low-level radiation source. The capability to register individuals upon completion of the monitoring and decontamination activities should be demonstrated. The registration activities demonstrated should include the establishment of a registration record for each individual, consisting of the individual’s name, address, results of monitoring, and time of decontamination, if any, or as otherwise designated in the plan. Audio recorders, camcorders, or written records are all acceptable means for registration. EXTENT OF PLAY - SPECIFIC 1. Three portal monitors assigned to Windham will be demonstrated—two for personnel, one
for vehicles (one portal monitor is required for personnel, one for vehicles). 2. At least one staff radiological monitor will demonstrate hand-held instrument monitoring
techniques for personnel at the Secondary Monitoring Station. 3. Reception Center staff will use radiological monitoring equipment issued to the Windham
Fire Department, to include CD V 700 with probe. 4. Contamination control measures and decontamination techniques for at least one male and
one female subject will be simulated. 5. Vehicle monitoring will be demonstrated via portal monitoring only. 6. A representative sample of replacement clothing resources will be available for
decontaminated individuals in the male and female decontamination areas. 7. Immediate correction of issues relating to monitoring, decontamination and registration
where remediation is possible will be allowed. Areas Requiring Corrective Action (ARCA) 1. A greeter in the vehicle monitoring area was observed placing a hand on two of the first three
vehicles coming into the vehicle monitoring area. Although he realized what he had done, he took no action to determine if he was contaminated or not. A vehicle monitoring team
46

member logging contaminated vehicles placed a clipboard on the hood of a contaminated vehicle in the contaminated vehicle parking lot.
RECOMMENDATION: Additional training to insure that procedures are followed and an awareness established of potential cross-contamination causes while working with potentially contaminated vehicles and equipment. 2. Due to the need for personnel to direct vehicles along an elongated route into the vehicle
monitoring area, personnel from the clean vehicle parking area were reassigned. This left only one person in the “Clean Parking Lot” to register vehicles. A line began to form and was beginning to affect the ability of additional vehicles to exit the portal monitor. There was no actual obstruction during the drill but sufficient personnel need to be assigned to the “Clean Parking Lot” so that vehicle information can be recorded at the parking space. This will free up the area leading into the lot and not cause a backup during a true event.
RECOMMENDATION: Review the reception center plan, vehicle traffic and monitoring sections, to insure that sufficient personnel are allocated to those operations. Evaluation Area 6 – Support Operations/Facilities Sub-element 6.b.1. Monitoring and Decontamination of Evacuee Vehicles and Emergency Worker equipment.
Criterion 6.b.1: The facility/ORO has adequate procedures and resources for the accomplishment of monitoring and decontamination of emergency worker equipment including vehicles. (NUREG-0654, K.5.b) INTENT This sub-element is derived from NUREG-0654, which provides that OROs have the capability to implement radiological monitoring and decontamination of emergency worker equipment, including vehicles. EXTENT OF PLAY - GENERAL The monitoring staff should demonstrate the capability to monitor equipment, including vehicles, for contamination in accordance with the ORO’s plans and procedures. Specific attention should be given to equipment, including vehicles, that was in contact with individuals found to be contaminated. The monitoring staff should demonstrate the capability to make decisions on the need for decontamination of equipment including vehicles based on guidance levels and procedures stated in the plan and/or procedures. The area to be used for monitoring and decontamination should be set up as it would be in an actual emergency, with all route markings, instrumentation, record keeping and contamination control measures in place. Monitoring procedures should be demonstrated for a minimum of
47

_____________________________________________________________________
one vehicle. It is generally not necessary to monitor the entire surface of vehicles. However, the capability to monitor areas such as air intake systems, radiator grills, bumpers, wheel wells, tires, and door handles should be demonstrated. Interior surfaces of vehicles that were in contact with individuals found to be contaminated should also be checked. Decontamination capabilities, and provisions for vehicles and equipment that cannot be decontaminated, may be simulated and conducted by interview. All activities associated with this criterion must be based on the ORO’s plans and procedures and completed, as they would be in an actual emergency, unless noted above or otherwise indicated in the extent of play agreement. EXTENT OF PLAY - SPECIFIC 1. Decontamination capabilities and provisions for vehicles and equipment will be
demonstrated by discussion. 2. No vehicle interiors will be monitored. 3. Immediate correction of issues relating to monitoring and decontamination of evacuees and
emergency worker equipment will be allowed. Areas Requiring Corrective Action (ARCA) None Evaluation Area 6 – Support Operations/Facilities Sub-element 6.c.1 Temporary Care of Evacuees Criterion 6.c.1: Managers of congregate care facilities demonstrate that the centers have resources to provide services and accommodations consistent with American Red Cross planning guidelines (found in MASS CARE-Preparedness Operations, ARC 3031). Managers demonstrate the procedures to assure that evacuees have been monitored for contamination and have been decontaminated as appropriate prior to entering congregate care facilities. (NUREG-0654, J.10.h., 12.) INTENT This sub-element is derived from NUREG-0654, which provides that OROs demonstrate the capability to establish relocation centers in host areas. Congregate care is normally provided in support of OROs by the American Red Cross under existing letters of agreement. EXTENT OF PLAY - GENERAL Under this criterion, demonstration of congregate care centers may be conducted out of sequence with the exercise scenario. The evaluator should conduct a walk-through of the center to determine, through observation and inquiries, that the services and accommodations are consistent with ARC 3031 In this simulation, it is not necessary to set up operations, as they would be in an actual

_____________________________________________________________________
emergency. Alternatively, capabilities may be demonstrated by setting up stations for various services and providing those services to simulated evacuees. Given the substantial differences between demonstration and simulation of this criteria, exercise demonstration expectations should be clearly specified in extent-of-play agreements. Congregate care staff should also demonstrate the capability to ensure that evacuees have been monitored for contamination, have been decontaminated as appropriate, and have been registered before entering the facility. This capability may be determined through an interview process. If operations at the center are demonstrated, material that would be difficult or expensive to transport (e.g., cots, blankets, sundries, and large-scale food supplies) need not be physically available at the facility(ies). However, availability of such items should be verified by providing the evaluator a list of sources with locations and estimates of quantities. All activities associated with this criterion must be based on the ORO’s plans and procedures and completed, as they would be in an actual emergency, unless noted above or otherwise indicated in the extent of play agreement. EXTENT OF PLAY - SPECIFIC 1. Only one shelter, the new ECSU Student Center, will be evaluated. This will take place during a
walk-through, out of sequence from the Reception Center portion of the exercise. Areas Requiring Corrective Action (ARCA) None
