Dear Mr. Tailleart:

Enclosed please find a copy of the Final After Action Report/Improvement Plan for the FullParticipation Exercise for the 10-Mile Emergency Planning Zone (EPZ) around the Indian PointEnergy Center held on October 2, 2012. Also included are the evaluations of 71 out of sequencedrills and demonstrations held in the 2-year cycle associated with this exercise.

New York State and local governments successfully demonstrated the capability to implementtheir off-site radiological emergency response plans and procedures, based on the evaluation ofthis exercise by the FEMA Region II Regional Assistance Committee and a team of Federalevaluators. There were no deficiencies. Nine (9) new Areas Requiring Corrective Action(ARCAs) were identified; 2 of these ARCAs were corrected by redemonstration. All five priorARCAs were also determined to have been resolved. The remaining issues have been addressed,and will be re-evaluated at the next biennial exercise in 2014. Therefore, we find that State andlocal preparedness is adequate to protect the health and safety of the public living in the vicinityof the Indian Point Energy Center and there is reasonable assurance that appropriate measurescan be taken offsite in the event of a radiological emergency.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

On October 2, 2012 an exercise was conducted in-the plume exposure pathway emergency

planning zone (EPZ) around the Indian Point Energy Center (IPEC). The exercise was evaluated

by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), Region II. The purpose of the exercise

was to demonstrate and assess the level of State and local preparedness in responding to a

radiological emergency. The exercise was held in accordance with FEMA's policies and

guidance concerning the exercise of State and local radiological emergency response plans

(RERP) and procedures.

The most recent previous exercise at this site was conducted on September 14, 2010. The

qualifying emergency preparedness exercise was conducted on March 3, 1982.

FEMA wishes to acknowledge the efforts of the many individuals in New York State;

Westchester, Rockland, Orange, and Putnam Counties in New York; and Bergen County, New

Jersey who participated in this exercise.

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 by volunteering to provide vital emergency services to their communities. The

cooperation and teamwork of all participants were evident during this exercise.

This report contains the draft evaluation of the biennial exercise and of the following out-of-

sequence activities in Orange, Putnam, Rockland and Westchester counties: Day Cares and

School Interviews; Reception Centers; Congregate Care Centers; Emergency Worker Personnel

Monitoring Centers; General and Special Population Bus Companies; School Bus Companies;

Traffic Control Points; and Medical Services Drills.

The State and local organizations, except where noted in this report, satisfactorily demonstrated

knowledge of their emergency response plans and procedures and adequately implemented them.

There were no Deficiencies and 9 new Areas Requiring Corrective Actions (ARCAS) identified;

Two of these ARCAS were corrected on the spot. In addition, all 5 prior ARCAS were resolved

by demonstration.

SECTION 2: EXERCISE DESIGN SUMMARY2.1 Exercise Purpose and Design

The DHS/FEMA Region II Office evaluated the full participation, plume exercise on October 2,

2012 to assess the capabilities of the local emergency preparedness organizations in

implementing their Radiological Emergency Response Plans and Procedures to protect the public

health and safety during a radiological emergency involving the Indian Point Energy Center

(IPEC). The purpose of this report is to present the results of the findings on the performance of

the offsite response organizations during a simulated radiological emergency.

2.2 Exercise Objectives, Capabilities and Activities

Capabilities-based planning allows for exercise planning teams to develop exercise objectives

and observe exercise outcomes through a framework of specific action items that were derived

from the Target Capabilities List (TCL). The capabilities listed below form the foundation for

the organization of all FEMA Region II REP Program objectives and observations in this

exercise.

-Emergency Operations Center Management: Is the capability to provide multi-agency

coordination (MAC) for incident management by activating and operating an EOC for a pre-

planned or no-notice event. EOC management includes EOC activation, notification, staffing,

and deactivation; management, direction, control, and coordination of response and recovery

activities; coordination of efforts among neighboring governments at each level and among local,

regional, state, and federal EOCs; coordination of public information and warning; and

maintenance of the information and communication necessary for coordinating response and

recovery activities.

- Emergency Public Information and Warning: Is the capability that includes public information,

alert/warning and notification. It involves developing, coordinating, and disseminating

information to the public, coordinating officials, and incident management and responders across

all jurisdictions and disciplines effectively under all hazard conditions.

- Citizen Evacuation and Shelter in Place: Is the capability to prepare for, ensure communication

of, and immediately execute the safe and effective sheltering-in-place of an at-risk population

(and companion animals), and/or the organized and managed evacuation of the at-risk population

16



(and companion animals) to areas of safe refuge in response to a potentially or actually

dangerous environment. In addition, this capability involves the safe reentry of the population

where feasible.

- Emergency Public Safety and Security Response: Is the capability to reduce the impact and

consequences of an incident or major event by securing the affected area, including

crime/incident scene preservation issues as appropriate, safely diverting the public from hazards,

providing security support to other response operations and properties, and sustaining operations

from response through recovery. Public Safety and Security Response requires coordination

among officials from law enforcement (LE), fire, and EMS.

- Hazardous Materials Response and Decontamination: Is the capability to assess and manage the

consequences of a hazardous materials release, either accidental or as part of a terrorist attack. It

includes testing and identifying all likely hazardous substances onsite; ensuring that responders

have protective clothing and equipment; conducting rescue operations to remove affected victims

from the hazardous environment; conducting geographical survey searches of suspected sources

of contamination and establishing isolation perimeters; mitigating the effects of hazardous

materials, decontaminating on-site victims, responders, and equipment; coordinating off-site

decontamination with relevant agencies, and notifying environmental, health, and law

enforcement agencies having jurisdiction for the incident to begin implementation of their

standard evidence collection and investigation procedures.

- Mass Care: Is the capability to provide immediate shelter, feeding centers, basic first aid, bulk

distribution of needed items, and related services to persons affected by a large-scale incident,

including special needs populations. Special needs populations include individuals with physical

or mental disabilities who require medical attention or personal care beyond basic first aid. Other

special-needs populations include non-English speaking populations that may need to have

information presented in other languages. The mass care capability also provides for pet

care/handling through local government and appropriate animal-related organizations. Mass care

is usually performed by nongovernmental organizations (NGO), such as the American Red Cross

(ARC), or by local government-sponsored volunteer efforts, such as Citizen Corps. Special-

needs populations are generally the responsibility of local government, with medical needs

addressed by the medical community and/or its alternate care facilities. State and Federal entities

also play a role in public and environmental health by ensuring safe conditions, safe food,

potable water, sanitation, clean air, etc.

17



Triage and Pre-Hospital Treatment: Is the capability to appropriately dispatch EMS resources;

to provide feasible, suitable, and medically acceptable pre-'hospital triage and treatment of

patients; to provide transport as well as medical care en-route to an appropriate receiving facility;

and to track patients to a treatment facility.

c. DEFICIENCY: None

d. PLAN ISSUES: 5.a.1.

ISSUE NO.: 32-12-5al-P-02

CRITERION: Activities associated with primary alerting and notification of the

public are completed in a timely manner following the initial decision by authorized

offsite emergency officials to notify the public of an emergency situation. The initial

instructional message to the public must include as a minimum the elements required

by current REP guidance.

CONDITION: The initial, second and third EAS messages did not make reference to

REP specific emergency information (e.g., brochures and information in telephone

books or calendars) for use by the general public during an emergency.

POSSIBLE CAUSE: This is not required by New York State Procedures

41



REFERENCE: NUREG-0654/FEMA REP-1, E.5,6, and 7. Criterion 5.a. 1.

EFFECT: The general public may not receive all the necessary information.

RECOMMENDATION: Place this requirement in applicable NY State

plans/procedures.


f. PRIOR ISSUES - RESOLVED: 5.a.1.

ISSUE NO.: 32-10-5al-A-01

ISSUE: During the preparation of the third EAS message, there was confusion

between Orange County and the State EOC. The OCEOC listed specific instructions

and areas to be evacuated and announced in the EAS. These areas are mentioned in

OC's Evacuation Plans. The State EOC was more general in the writing of the EAS.

For example, instead of writing "Town of Cornwall East of Rt. 32 is to be evacuated"

the State EOC wrote "Town of Cornwall is to be evacuated." This would have the

effect of directing members of the public outside the 10-mile EPZ to evacuate. The

State mentioned there was an issue with their pre-scripted EAS messages. The

OCEOC advised the State EOC to review the county's Radiological Emergency

Response Plans for specific localities and area descriptions in the Orange County

portion of the 10-mile EPZ. The discussions between the OCEOC and the State to

correct the EAS message delayed its release and also delayed the sounding of the

sirens, possibly putting members of the public at risk.

CORRECTIVE ACTION DEMONSTRATED: Although the Town of Cornwall was

not included in protective actions during this exercise, the Town of Cornwall was

included in the practice exercise that took place on 09/08/12. EAS messages were

reviewed from this exercise and the Town of Cornwall (South of Angola Road) was a

specified protective action area. Based on this, this ARCA is closed.

b. AREAS REQUIRING CORRECTIVE ACTION: 3.d.2.

ISSUE NO.: 32-12-3d2-A-04

CRITERION: Impediments to evacuation are identified and resolved.

CONDITION: The Orange County Public Information Officer was not informed of

the alternate evacuation route as a result of a traffic impediment (simulated rollover

of a tractor trailer carrying milk) at 12:22. There is potential for this information not

to be appropriately and adequately communicated out to the public who will be

evacuating, thereby increasing the potential for increase in traffic congestion that

would slow the evacuation process.

The FEMA REP Program Manual dated April 2012 states under Criterion 3.d.2

"Impediments to evacuation are identified and resolved: The impediment must occur

during the evacuation and be on an evacuation route such that re-routing of traffic is

required, triggering decision making and coordination with the JIC to communicate

the alternative route to evacuees leaving the area".

45



POSSIBLE CAUSE: Proper coordination/communication between law enforcement,

the Command and General Staff and the Public Information officer to make the PIO

aware of the problem and issue the proper press release and other communications is

not addressed in the plan.

REFERENCE: NUREG 0654/FEMA-REP- l, J. 10.k

EFFECT: There is great potential for additional traffic congestion if the public is not

properly informed of evacuation route detours.

RECOMMENDATION: Closer coordination should occur between law enforcement

operations, Command and General Staff and the Public Information Officer to ensure

that effects of a detour from the evacuation route are properly communicated to the

public. This coordination should be laid out within the Orange County plan to ensure

that all parties are aware of their responsibilities.

c. DEFICIENCY: None

d. PLAN ISSUES: 3.c.2, 3.d.1.

ISSUE NO.: 32-12-3c2-P-03

CRITERION: OROs/school officials implement protective actions for schools.

CONDITION: The current Orange County Comprehensive Emergency Management

Plan (OCCEMP) Appendix Two (2) - Special Facilities does not designate by name

or position the person responsible for the notification of day cares within the Orange

County Emergency Planning Zone. As such, who would be responsible for notifying

the four registered day care centers reflected in the OCCEMP was left in doubt

during the exercise. During interviews, two separate answers were given as to who

would be responsible for notifications of day cares by the BOCES representative and

the Operations Section Chief.

POSSIBLE CAUSE: Current Orange County Comprehensive Emergency

Management Plans (OCCEMP), policies and procedures do not specifically delegate

46



the responsibility of notifications to day care facilities or private schools to an

individual or position.

REFERENCE: NUREG-0654/FEMA-REP-1, J.10.c, d, e, g

EFFECT: There is a potentially delayed notification of a vulnerable population that

might require additional time to safely evacuate.

RECOMMENDATION: OCCEMP should be modified to be more specific as to who

is responsible for notification of both private schools and day care centers located

within the EPZ.

ISSUE NO.: 32-12-3dl-P-04

CRITERION: Appropriate traffic and access control is established. Accurate

instructions are provided to traffic and access control personnel.

CONDITION: Traffic and Access Control is not adequately addressed in the new

Orange County Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan dated May of 2012.

Appendix 3: Maps and Displays do not include a map or display of the traffic and

access control points as required by NUREG 0654/FEMA-REP- 1. Current plans do

not adequately address or describe the plans, policies and procedures that would be

required for implementation.

POSSIBLE CAUSE: In the new Orange County Comprehensive Emergency

Management Plan many sections were streamlined in order to simplify the plan for

implementation. The sections implementing this plan possess a strong institutional

knowledge for how to execute this mission and do not rely heavily on written plans,

policies and procedures and as such they are not fully described in the plan.

REFERENCE: NUREG-0654/FEMA-REP- 1, A.3; C. 1,4; J. 10.g, j

Orange County Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan HSA 19-49

Orange County Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan Appendix 3: Maps

and Displays.

47



EFFECT: In the event of a loss of institutional knowledge there is not currently

available through the plan sufficient documentation to allow others to properly

implement traffic and access control points.

RECOMMENDATION: Add Traffic and Access Control map to Appendix 3 and

provide additional detail on how traffic and access control points will be staffed,

implemented and executed.


f. PRIOR ISSUES - RESOLVED: 3.c.2, 3.d.1.

ISSUE NO.: 32-10-3c2-P-06

ISSUE: There are students in the Cornwall CSD and the Monroe Woodbury CSD, the

John S.Burke Catholic High School and the Orange Ulster BOCES who live inside

the EPZ but go to schools that are outside the EPZ. When the Orange County portion

of the EPZ was evacuated these students were retained at their schools to be picked

up by their parents. Further conversation with the Schools Coordinator indicated that

such retention would be the case for any such evacuation. Also parents had received

information to this effect from their children's school and would be informed by

media broadcasts during such an event, were it to occur. However, the 2009-2010

Orange County Indian Point Emergency Guide tells parents that many schools have

plans in place for parents to pick up students before they are relocated and to check

with the principal of ones children's schools about such plans. It also has a box with

orange background, which states, "The school reception center for Orange County is

South Jr. High school, 33-63 Monument St. Newburgh, NY. Refer to the foldout

map for more information. TV and Radio broadcasts will keep you informed about

the relocation of students to the school reception center." But it does not indicate that

students living inside the EPZ going to schools outside it will be retained at their

school for pick up. This could lead to confusion by some parents as to the proper

action to take.

CORRECTIVE ACTION DEMONSTRATED: The 2012-2013 "Are you ready"?

Orange County Indian Point Emergency Guide has been updated to reflect the

48



following under the Schools and Summer Camps; if children are in school or at

camp, the brochure states that "Students who reside within the EPZ but attend

schools located outside the EPZ, will remain in those schools until picked up by their

families, whether or not they are evacuating. No students will be transported into the

EPZ"


ISSUE: The TCPs are to be set up at SAE according to the Procedure 2 Law

Enforcement 4.6.1.2. "The Sheriff, in conjunction with the State Police and local

Police Departments, will order the establishment of traffic control checkpoints at the

following locations to prevent unnecessary traffic from entering the 10-mile EPZ (see

Table 7A of Appendix H)."

There are twenty TCPs in this table. Establishment of these TCPs involves from 3 to

16 cones at 18 checkpoints, and 8 barricades and a sign at the other two. At least

some of these supplies are supposed to be provided by the Orange County

Department of Public Works. However, their procedure is not quite consistent with

the above. Procedure 7 Public Works 5. SAE 5.1.3 "The County Commissioner of

Public Works will make available to law enforcement agencies any requested

resources that can be spared (e.g. equipment, barricades etc.) to support the

establishment of traffic control points. "

Rather than wait for the request the barricades, at least, should be put in place at SAE

or EAS message, whichever is earlier. Cones, if needed could be provided to the

police at their departments to take into the field. This procedure should also cite

Table 7A.

There are 10 Access Control Points to the EPZ (Table 7B of Appendix H) Six of

these are also TCPs. The ten ACPs require 51 barriers and 3 signs. There is a

reference to access control along the evacuation route (Table 2 of Appendix H).

However, that table makes no reference to ACPs. These are to be established in the

event of an evacuation according to both the police and DPW procedures. With the

barricades and signs to be provided if requested according to the DPW evacuation

49



procedure ( General Evacuation Procedure I.A.3). Waiting for these requests, which

would occur as the ACPs began to be staffed would delay their effectiveness.

Additional ACPs along the evacuation route are mentioned in both the Law

Enforcement and Public Works procedures but none are noted in the table cited

above.

CORRECTIVE ACTION DEMONSTRATED: Orange County recently enacted a

new Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan that drastically alters the previous

procedures for dealing with traffic and access control. The specific references cited in

this issue have been removed and the current plan effectively demonstrated an ability

to implement traffic and access control in event of an incident at the Indian Point

Energy Center.

CRITERION: The OROs issue appropriate dosimetry, KI, and procedures, and

manage radiological exposure to emergency workers in accordance with the

plans/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. Appropriate record-keeping of the administration of KI for emergency workers

is maintained.

CONDITION: During the Indian Point Energy Center Plume Pathway Exercise on

Tuesday, October 2, 2012, the Orange County Division of Emergency Management

Field Monitoring Team Supervisor failed to include information about potassium

iodide, its purpose, or its use during the pre-dispatch briefing of one Field Monitoring

Team.

50


Alter Action Report/Improvement Plan Indian Point Energy Center

POSSIBLE CAUSE: The FMT Supervisor stated that he had become distracted

during his briefing and inadvertently skipped over the section of his checklist dealing

with KI.

REFERENCE: NUREG-0654, J. IOe

EFFECT: FMT members would depart without all the information they need to

protect themselves from unnecessary radiation exposure while performing their

duties.

CORRECTIVE ACTION DEMONSTRATED: The FMT briefing was re-

demonstrated in accordance with county procedure. Subsequent briefing of a second

FMT was performed in accordance with county procedure.

ISSUE NO.: 32-12-6dl-A-03

CRITERION: The facility/ORO has the appropriate space, adequate resources, and

trained personnel to provide transport, monitoring, decontamination, and medical

services to contaminated injured individuals.

CONDITION: During a MS-1 drill at St. Luke's Cornwall Hospital, surveys to detect

53



the presence and quantity of radiological contamination were not always in

accordance with the hospital procedure. The hospital procedure requires that probe-

to-surface distance should be approximately ½ inch. Contrary to the hospital

procedure, most patient surveys were conducted with the probe several inches from

the patient. When questioned, the technician was aware of the procedural

requirement, but he continued to conduct surveys in the same manner.

POSSIBLE CAUSE: The cause is not known. It should be noted that, as the

procedure requires, the detector probe was covered in plastic, so there would

normally be no concern with the potential for contaminating the probe.

REFERENCE: NUREG 0654, K.5.a; FEMA-REP-22: Contamination Monitoring

7.A.

EFFECT: In this case, not following the procedure could lead to an inability to detect

the presence of contamination in a timely manner.

RECOMMENDATION: If ½2 inch from the patient is the distance that is desired,

conduct additional training and demonstrate this distance so that it is clearly

understood.

is maintained.

CONDITION: Many volunteers from Putnam County responded the reception center

at Brewster High School. As a result, there was not enough dosimetry to go around.

Both male and female workers performed monitoring and decontamination activities

without any dosimetry. The Reception Center Manager and Ares/Races

representative did not have any dosimetry.

POSSIBLE CAUSE: This was probably caused by the number of volunteers that

responded. Also, there was no clear method of separating those who were there for

training purposes from those who were playing in the exercise. Another possibility is

that more dosimetry is needed at this facility.

REFERENCE: NUREG 0654/FEMA Rep-1, K.3.a

EFFECT: If DRDs are not issued, a worker would have no indication of their

exposure. Perhaps more importantly, without a DLR, there is no legal record of

emergency worker dose.

RECOMMENDATION: Obtain a sufficient supply of dosimetry for this facility. If

more people show up than are expected, clearly segregate those who are playing from

57



those who are not. Area monitoring with a single dosimeter is recommended, but

each worker still needs a dosimeter of legal record (DLR).

CRITERION: Key personnel with leadership roles for the ORO provide direction and

control to that part of the overall response effort for which they are responsible.

CONDITION: Protective Action Decisions changes made to the Utility Protective

Action Recommendations by Rockland County are not required to be transmitted to

Bergen County.

The current Rockland County Radiological Emergency Response Plan, Section

Procedure RC/BC 1 Section 5.3 EOC Operations requires Rockland County EOC to

contact Bergen County with the following.

5.3 EOC Operations

5.3.1 Establish phone contact with Bergen County EOC and continuously (every 30

minutes) update them on the following information. Follow up the contact with a

confirmatory fax or email.

Note: The Attachment 4 checklist can be used to transmit information to the Bergen

County EOC.

a. EOC activation status

b. Emergency classification

c. Protective action recommendations

d. Metrologic conditions

e. Plume definition data

68



POSSIBLE CAUSE: Need for closer coordination and more accurate in the decision

making process between the two counties.

REFERENCE: Rockland County Emergency Response Plan Section Procedure

RC/BC-1, Section 5.3 EOC Operations

EFFECT: The lack of accurate Protective Action Decision information being

transmitted to Bergen County could result in conflicting priorities between Rockland

and Bergen counties that may impact public safety.

RECOMMENDATION: The Rockland County Plan should be updated so that both

Protective Action Recommendations made by the Utility and Protective Action

Decisions made by Rockland County are required to be shared with Bergen County.

In addition a stronger emphasis should be placed on the use of the check list in

Attachment 4, Procedure RC/BC- 1, Section 5.3 EOC Operations.

ISSUE NO.: 32-12-3d2-P-06

CRITERION: Impediments to evacuation are identified and resolved.

CONDITION: The Public Information Officer was not informed of the alternate

evacuation route as a result of a traffic impediment (simulated rollover of a tractor

trailer carrying milk) at 12:22. There is potential for this information not to be

appropriately and adequately communicated out to the public who will be evacuating,

thereby increasing the potential for increase in traffic congestion that would slow the

evacuation process.

The FEMA REP Program Manual dated April 2012 states under Criterion 3.d.2

"Impediments to evacuation are identified and resolved: "The impediment must occur

during the evacuation and be on an evacuation route such that re-routing of traffic is

required, triggering decision making and coordination with the JIC to communicate

the alternative route to evacuees leaving the area.

69


After Action Reportl/mprovement Plan Indian Point Energy Center

POSSIBLE CAUSE: Proper coordination/communication between law enforcement,

the Command and General Staff and the Public Information officer to make the PIO

aware of the problem and issue the proper press release and other communications is

not addressed in the plan.

REFERENCE: NUREG 0654/FEMA-REP- 1, J. 1 O.k

EFFECT: There is great potential for additional traffic congestion if the public is not

properly informed of evacuation route detours.

RECOMMENDATION: Closer coordination should occur between law enforcementoperations, Command and General Staff and the Public Information Officer to ensure

that effects of a detour from the evacuation route are properly communicated to the

public. This coordination should be laid out within the Rockland County plan to

ensure that all parties are aware of there responsibilities.

ISSUE: Procedure DOH-5, Attachment 4, page 22 of 36 states that the field team is

in the plume if the reading at the sampling site is two times background or higher.

This statement is potentially incorrect. The plume may be elevated at the sampling

site and the shine may cause the ambient reading to be greater than twice

background. This also holds for a plume horizontally displaced from the sampling

site.

CORRECTIVE ACTION DEMONSTRATED: The statement at the bottom of page

CONDITION: Many firefighters from the Pearl River Fire Department responded the

Reception Center at Pearl River High School. As a result, there was not enough

dosimetry to go around. In one case, a worker conducted monitoring in the male

decontamination area without any dosimetry.

POSSIBLE CAUSE: This was probably caused by the number of firefighters that

responded along with the lack of a clear method of separating those who were there

for training purposes from those who were playing in the exercise. Another

possibility is that more dosimetry is needed at this facility.

REFERENCE: NUREG 0654/FEMA Rep-I, K.3.a

EFFECT: If DRDs are not issued, a worker would have no indication of their

exposure. Perhaps more importantly, without a DLR, there is no legal record of

emergency worker dose.

CONDITION: During a MS-1 drill, the technicians from Stony Point Ambulance

Corp did not use their contaminated/injured victim form, which is required by the

81


AIter Action Report/Improvement Plan Indian Point Energy Center

Rockland Radiological Emergency Response Agency Procedures.

POSSIBLE CAUSE: The form was not present in the kit.

REFERENCE: NUREG 0654, L. 1,4; Rockland Radiological Emergency Response

Agency Procedure EMS-2 "Handling and Transport of Contaminated and/or Injured

Individuals to Medical Facilities", section 5.1. 10.

EFFECT: Because the reading was not written down, the technician could not

remember the readings and the survey had to be repeated. This could lead to

additional exposure and delay hospital care to the patient.

CORRECTIVE ACTION DEMONSTRATED: On August 9, 2012, prior to the

plume exercise, Stony Point Ambulance Corps members successfully demonstrated

the ability to have the appropriate form available and to use it correctly at the Stony

Point Ambulance Corps Facility, which is located at 47 South Liberty Drive in Stony

ISSUE NO.: 32-12-6d1-A-01




82



CONDITION: During a MS-I exercise at Good Samaritan Hospital, REA team

members did not always follow the hospital procedure. The hospital procedure,

which is summarized in a Patient Management - Wall Chart, dictates that samples

should be taken prior to decontamination of the patient. Despite this, REA team

members immediately began patient decontamination and had to be prompted to stop

and obtain biological samples. Procedures for patient decontamination were not

strictly followed. Contrary to the hospital procedure, the REA staff did not use"chux" and medical tape to drape the wound. Instead, they placed a cloth under the

patient's elbow. In addition, they decontaminated the wound from the inside out,

instead of following the procedural requirement for decontamination of the wound

from the outside in. Finally, anti-contamination clothing was not donned or removed

in the order that appears on the Anti-contamination clothing - Wall chart. In one

instance, a gown was removed in a manner that could unnecessarily lead to a spread

of contamination.

POSSIBLE CAUSE: The REA Team members were not highly experienced. This

was the first MS-I exercise for some team members. While focusing on getting the

patient decontaminated and treated, they missed some of the procedural steps.

EFFECT: If decontamination was completed prior to sample taking, representative

radiological samples would not be able to be obtained. Not following

decontamination and anti-contamination protocol could lead to an unwanted spread

of contamination. Although, in this case, contamination would have been confined to

the REA, and REA staff demonstrated that they could deal with the additional

contamination caused by not following procedures, the process would have been

easier for them if they had followed the procedures.

RECOMMENDATION: Hospital staff was advised of the need to follow procedures

and wall charts during a critique which was conducted on 5/12/11. Stress the need for

procedure compliance and referral to charts during future training sessions.

c. DEFICIENCY: None

d. PLAN ISSUES: 6.d.1.





CONDITION: During a MS-I exercise at Good Samaritan Hospital, the radiation

physicist covered the probe that he used with his Ludlum Model 177 frisker to

conduct surveys for contamination. He used a plastic glove for this purpose.

However, the fingers of the glove touched everything that he surveyed and could

have potentially caused a cross-contamination problem.

POSSIBLE CAUSE: The hospital procedure does not provide information regarding

covering the probe and provides no guidance on how this should be accomplished.

In fact, Section 7 of the procedure includes a picture in which the probe is not

covered.

REFERENCE: NUREG 0654, K.5b, L. 1; Good Samaritan Hospital Procedure:

Management of the Radioactively Contaminated Patient, November, 2010,

EFFECT: If the probe is not properly covered and glove material hangs down, there

is the potential for cross-contamination of every item that is surveyed (including the

patient).

RECOMMENDATION: Discontinue the practice of using a glove to cover the probe.

Obtain a suitable substitute (plastic bag) and provide guidance regarding the how this

is to be used as a probe cover in the hospital procedure.

ISSUE NO.: 32-12-5b I-A-09

CRITERION: OROs provide accurate emergency information and instructions to the

public and news media in a timely manner.

CONDITION: Press Release #4 announced the declaration of a countywide State of

Emergency in Westchester County at 1015. The press release stated the State of

Emergency was declared in response to a General Emergency being declared at the

Plant, but that did not occur until 1023. Therefore, the timeline within Press Release

#4 is incorrect as the General Emergency occurred after the State of Emergency.

POSSIBLE CAUSE: New PIO Staff.

ISSUE NO.: 32-12-4a2-P-08

CRITERION: Field teams (two or more) are managed to obtain sufficient

information to help characterize the release and to control radiation exposure.

CONDITION: The licensee failed to deliver any centerline exposure rate or

radioiodine concentration data as agreed to in the Westchester County Plan and the

Extent-of-Play agreement for this exercise. Minor changes in the assumed noble gas

to iodine ratios used in the licensee provided dose assessment program could have a

significant impact on the projected thyroid dose.

POSSIBLE CAUSE: The licensee has the obligation to provide this data by inplace

agreements. The licensee responders may be rushed by their other obligations.

REFERENCE: NUREG-0654, November 1980 1.8

REP Program Manual April 2012

EFFECT: The thyroid dose projected could be underestimated and therefore the

evacuation recommended may not have been far enough.

RECOMMENDATION: Since the the FEMA perview is offsite actions, revise the

RDADs procedure the require the RDAD to ask for the centerline data until it is

provided.

ISSUE NO.: 32-12-lel-P-09

CRITERION: Equipment, maps, displays, dosimetry, KI, and other supplies are

sufficient to support emergency operations.

CONDITION: The Westchester County Field Team procedure did not provide

adequate instruction for source checking radiological instrumentation. The

Westchester Field Team procedure identified a range of readings for dose rate and

contamination instruments that were not in compliance with the standard source

check requirement of plus or minus 20% of a value identified on the meter that

should be placed there shortly after calibration.

POSSIBLE CAUSE: Procedure inadequacy.

REFERENCE: NUREG-0654/FEMA-REP-1, H.7, 10; 1.7, 8, 9; J.10.a, b, e; J. 11, 12;

K.3.a; K.5.b

Westchester County Implementing Procedure 3.2

ANSI Standard 323-1978

EFFECT: Radiological instrumentation could provide invalid readings. This could

result in additional exposures received by the field teams and incorrect contamination

readings and air sample analysis.

RECOMMENDATION: Correct procedure to verify calibration facility provides

correct value to base + 20 per cent source range values to verify correct instrument

operation.

88



ISSUE NO.: 32-12-1el-P-10

CRITERION: Equipment, maps, displays, dosimetry, KI, and other supplies are

sufficient to support emergency operations.

CONDITION: The Westchester County Field Team procedure does not provide any

instruction for verifying the operability on the high range (> I R/hr) for the RO-20

instrument that is capable of reading up to 50 R/hr.


REFERENCE: NUREG-0654/FEMA-REP-1, H.7, 10; 1.7, 8, 9; J.1O.a, b, e; J.11, 12;

K.3.a; K.5.b


EFFECT: If in a high radiation field (> 1 R/hr) meter could read erroneously, causing

unnecessary exposure to field team members.

RECOMMENDATION: Provide procedural changes to define how to source check

high range of RO-20. This could be accomplished by each Field Monitoring Team

having two RO-20s and at a specified high range dose rate do a side by side

comparison that should be within ± 20 per-cent.

ISSUE NO.: 32-12-4a3-P-1 1

CRITERION: Ambient radiation measurements are made and recorded at appropriate

locations, and radioiodine and particulate samples are collected. Teams will move to

an appropriate low-background location to determine whether any significant (as

specified in the plan and/or procedures) amount of radioactivity has been collected on

the sampling media.

CONDITION: The Westchester County Field Team procedure does not adequately

89



provide direction on how to determine if the Field Team is within the plume. It does

use Open Window and Closed Window instrument readings at waist and at ground

level, but does not describe what the variances in these readings mean regarding the

plume location. It states the 1.5 x Window closed readings for the window open

reading is indicative the team is in the plume. The determination that the team is in

the plume is based on all open and closed window readings not individual readings

that are window open 1.5 times window closed.


REFERENCE: NUREG-0654/FEMA-REP-1, C. 1; H. 12: 1.8, 9; J. 1O.a


EFFECT: The Field Monitoring team could take an air sample when in fact they are

not actually in the plume. After analysis this would results in unexpected or no air

sample activity for both particulate and radioiodine samples.

RECOMMENDATION: Modify procedure to clarify what window open and window

closed readings mean at 3 feet (waist) and 3 inches (ground). When ground window

open minus window closed is 1-3 times higher than waist window open minus

window closed, this is indicative that the plume has passed this location. When waist

window open minus window closed is 1-3 times higher than window open minus

window closed at ground, this is indicative that the plume is overhead. Only when

waist and ground window open readings are 1-3 times higher than window closed

readings at waist and ground is this indicative that the field team is in plume.

CONDITION: A Westchester County FMT #2 team member was unaware of the

purpose for Potassium Iodide ingestion and the potential adverse effects of KI

ingestion.

POSSIBLE CAUSE: Lack of a pre-deployment briefing on the use and potential

adverse effects of KI ingestions.

REFERENCE: NUREG 0654, Section J. 1O.c

EFFECT: A person with an allergy to iodine could have a serious medical reaction if

he/she ingests KI.

RECOMMENDATION: IP 3.2 should include a requirement for a formal briefing of

FMT members including the topics included under Criterion 3.a. 1, including: dosing

and documentation of KI ingestion; and, why KI is administered and any adverse

SECTION 4: CONCLUSION

Based on the results of the exercise, the offsite radiological emergency response plans and

preparedness for the State of New York and the affected local jurisdiction are deemed adequate

to provide reasonable assurance that appropriate measures can be taken to protect the health and

safety of the public in the event of a radiological emergency. Therefore, 44 CFR Part 350

approval of the offsite radiological emergency response plans and preparedness for the State of

New York, site-specific to the Indian Point Energy Center, will remain in effect.

ISSUE: The Orange County Public Information Officer was not informed of the alternate evacuation route as aresult of a traffic impediment (simulated rollover of a tractor trailer carrying milk) at 12:22. There is potential forthis information not to be appropriately and adequately communicated out to the public who will be evacuating,thereby increasing the potential for increase in traffic congestion that would slow the evacuation process.

The FEMA REP Program Manual dated April 2012 states under Criterion 3.d.2 "Impediments to evacuation areidentified and resolved: The impediment must occur during the evacuation and be on an evacuation route such thatre-routing of traffic is required, triggering decision making and coordination with the JIC to communicate thealternative route to evacuees leaving the area".

RECOMMENDATION: Closer coordination should occur between law enforcement operations, Commandand General Staff and the Public Information Officer to ensure that effects of a detour from the evacuation route areproperly communicated to the public.

ISSUE: During a MS-I exercise at Good Samaritan Hospital, REA team members did not always follow thehospital procedure. The hospital procedure, which is summarized in a Patient Management - Wall Chart, dictatesthat samples should be taken prior to decontamination of the patient. Despite this, REA team members immediatelybegan patient decontamination and had to be prompted to stop and obtain biological samples. Procedures forpatient decontamination were not strictly followed. Contrary to the hospital procedure, the REA staff did not use"chux" and medical tape to drape the wound. Instead, they placed a cloth under the patient's elbow. In addition,they decontaminated the wound from the inside out, instead of following the procedural requirement fordecontamination of the wound from the outside in. Finally, anti-contamination clothing was not donned or removedin the order that appears on the Anti-contamination clothing - Wall chart. In one instance, a gown was removed in amanner that could unnecessarily lead to a spread of contamination.

RECOMMENDATION: Hospital staff was advised of the need to follow procedures and wall charts during acritique which was conducted on 5/12/11. Stress the need for procedure compliance and referral to charts duringfuture training sessions.

CHAPTER 1: GENERAL INFORMATION

Introduction

The Indian Point Unit 3 REP Exercise is a Full-Scale Exercise (FSE) designed for players todemonstrate exercise emergency response plans, policies, and procedures as they pertain to anuclear power plant accident scenario and related controller inject messages. An FSE is acomplex event that requires detailed planning. To conduct an effective exercise, subject matterexperts (SMEs) and local representatives from numerous agencies have taken part in theplanning process and will take part in exercise conduct and evaluation.

This Exercise Plan (ExPlan) was produced at the direction of the FEMA Region II RAC Chairwith the input, advice, and assistance of the Exercise Planning Team. The Indian Point Unit 3REP Exercise is evidence of the growing partnership between State and local jurisdictions forresponse to the threats our Nation and communities face.

Confidentiality

The Indian Point Unit 3 REP Exercise is an unclassified exercise. The control of information isbased more on public sensitivity regarding the nature of the exercise than on the actual exercisecontent. Some exercise material is intended for the exclusive use of exercise planners,controllers, and evaluators, but players may view other materials deemed necessary to theirperformance. This ExPlan may be viewed by all exercise participants, but the Controller andEvaluator (C/E) Handbook is a restricted document intended for controllers and evaluators only.

All exercise participants should use appropriate guidelines to ensure the proper control ofinformation within their areas of expertise and protect this material in accordance with currentFEMA REP Program directives.

Public release of exercise materials to third parties is at the discretion of the Federal EmergencyManagement Agency (FEMA) and the Exercise Planning Team (EPT).

Purpose

The purpose of this exercise is to evaluate player actions against current response plans andcapabilities for a nuclear power plant-related incident, and to comply with the requirements of 44CFR 350 and the guidelines of NUREG 0654/FEMA-REP-1. Exercise planners utilized theelements described in the Radiological Emergency Preparedness (REP) Program Manual (April,2012) to develop this exercise.

The objective of FEMA REP Evaluated Exercises is to demonstrate reasonable assurance that thepublic can be protected during a nuclear power plant emergency.

Target Capabilities

The establishment of the National Preparedness Pniorities have steered the focus of homelandsecurity toward a capabilities-based planning approach. Capabilities-based planning focuses on






planning under uncertainty, since the next danger or disaster can never be forecast with completeaccuracy. Therefore, capabilities-based planning takes an all-hazards approach to planning andpreparation which builds capabilities that can be applied to a wide variety of incidents. Thecandidate capabilities listed below have been selected by the EPT from the priority capabilitiesidentified in the FEMA REP Program Manual, Part IV. These capabilities provide the foundationfor development of the exercise objectives and scenario, as the purpose of this exercise is tomeasure and validate performance of these capabilities and their associated activities and tasks.Capabilities, activities and tasks will be further integrated and detailed in Exercise EvaluationGuides (EEGs) developed for this exercise.

* Emergency Operations Center Management

* Emergency Public Information and Warning

* Citizen Evacuation and Shelter-in-Place

• Hazardous Materials Response and Decontamination

* Emergency Triage and Pre-Hospital Treatment

* Mass Care

* Emergency Public Safety and Security Response

Additionally, each capability is linked to several corresponding activities and tasks to provideadditional detail. Exercise objectives and Capabilities/REP Criteria selected to be exercised arediscussed in the Extent-of-Play (Appendix B).

OUTSTANDING ISSUESThe outstanding New York State ARCA from the 2010 Indian Point Exercise is described inAppendix B, Extent of Play.

CHAPTER 2: EXERCISE LOGISTICS

Exercise Summary

General

The Indian Point Unit 3 REP Exercise is designed for players to demonstrate exercise emergencyresponse plans, policies, and procedures as they pertain to a nuclear power plant accidentscenario and related controller inject messages. The Indian Point Unit 3 REP Exercise will beconducted on October 2, 2012. Exercise play will conclude when the FEMA Region II RACChair, or the Lead Evaluator determine that the exercise criteria have been met at each evaluatedlocation.

Assumptions

Assumptions constitute the implied factual foundation for the exercise and, hence, are assumedto be present before the start of the exercise. The following general assumptions apply to theREP Exercise:

" The exercise will be graded against the REP criteria. Elements outside the scope of theREP criteria will not be graded.

* This exercise will focus its evaluation on systems and processes, not individuals.

" Exercise simulation will be realistic and plausible, containing sufficient detail from whichto respond.

* Exercise players will react to the information and situations as they are presented, in thesame manner as if this had been a real event.

Constructs and Constraints

Although there are a number of constructs and constraints (also known as exercise artificialities)for any exercise, the EPT recognizes and accepts the following as necessary:

" The nature and timing of certain scenario events may involve assumptions that may seemunrealistic to players but are necessary to drive certain decisions and actions.

* Exercise communication and coordination will be limited to the participating exercisevenues as identified in the Extent of Play (EOP).

• Only those communication methods outlined in plans and procedures will be available forplayers to use during the exercise.

" Out-of-Sequence play is allowed as identified in the EOP.

" Certain simulations are allowed as identified in the EOP.

* The EOP is contained in Appendix B a lýlentifies these and other agreements used toguide exercise participants on the scope and manner in which the exercise will beconducted and evaluated.






The participating agencies may need to balance exercise play with real-world emergencies. It isunderstood that real-world emergencies will take priority.

Exercise Participants

The following are the categories of participants involved in this exercise; note that the term"participant" refers to all categories listed below, not just those playing in the exercise:

" Players. Players are agency personnel who have an active role in responding to thesimulated emergency and perform their regular roles and responsibilities during theexercise. Players initiate actions that will respond to and mitigate the simulatedemergency.

* Controllers. Controllers set up and operate the exercise site; plan and manage exerciseplay; act in the roles of response individuals and agencies not playing in the exercise.Controllers direct the pace of exercise play and routinely include members from theexercise planning team. They provide key data to players and may prompt or initiatecertain player actions to ensure exercise continuity.

* Simulators. Simulators are control staff personnel who role-play as nonparticipatingorganizations or individuals. They most often operate out of the SimCell, but mayoccasionally have face-to-face contact with players. Simulators function semi-independently under the supervision of SimCell controllers, enacting roles (e.g., as mediareporters or next of kin) in accordance with instructions provided in the Master ScenarioEvents List (MSEL). All simulators are ultimately accountable to the Exercise Directorand to the Lead Controller at each venue.

* Evaluators. Evaluators are chosen to evaluate and provide feedback on a designatedfunctional area of the exercise. They are chosen based on their expertise in the functionalarea(s) they have been assigned to review during the exercise and their familiarity withlocal emergency response procedures. Evaluators assess and document participants'performance against established emergency plans and exercise evaluation criteria, inaccordance with HSEEP standards and within the bounds of REP Program guidance andregulations. They are typically chosen from amongst planning committee members or theagencies/organizations that are participating in the exercise. FEMA Evaluators will notserve as Controllers.

" Actors. Actors are exercise participants who act or simulate specific roles during exerciseplay. They are typically volunteers who have been recruited to play the role of victims orother bystanders.

* Observers. Observers visit or view selected segments of the exercise. Observers do notplay in the exercise, and do not perform any control or evaluation functions. Observerswill view the exercise from a designated observation area and will be asked to remainwithin the observation area during the exercise. VIPs are a type of observer, but arefrequently grouped separately. A dedicated group of exercise Controllers should beassigned to manage these groups. 126






* Media Personnel. Some media personnel may be present as observers pending approvalby the exercise support team members. Media personnel and interaction may also besimulated by actors to enhance realism and meet related exercise objectives. A dedicatedgroup of exercise controllers should be assigned to manage these groups.

* Support Staff. Exercise support staff includes individuals who are assignedadministrative and logistical support tasks during the exercise (i.e. registration, catering,etc.)

Exercise Tools

Controller and Evaluator Package

The Indian Point Unit 3 REP Exercise C/E Package is designed to help exercise Controllers andEvaluators conduct and evaluate an effective exercise. This Package also enables Controllers andEvaluators to understand their roles and responsibilities in exercise execution and evaluation.Should a Player, Observer, or media representative find an unattended Package, it should beprovided to the nearest Controller or Evaluator.

Master Scenario Events List

The Master Scenario Events List (MSEL) outlines benchmarks, as well as injects that drive off-site exercise play. It also details realistic input to the exercise players as well as informationexpected to emanate from simulated organizations (i.e., those nonparticipating organizations,agencies, and individuals who would usually respond to the situation). An inject will includeseveral items of information, such as inject time, intended recipient, responsible controller, injecttype, a short description of the event, and the expected player action.

Exercise Implementation

Exercise Play

Exercise play will begin in the morning on October 2, 2012, with a situation notification updategoing to participating agencies in accordance with plans and procedures. Play will proceedaccording to the events as outlined in the scenario, and in accordance with established plans andprocedures. Exercise play is scheduled for the exercise duration or until the State ExerciseDirector and FEMA RAC Chair or designee determine that the exercise objectives have been metat each venue. Any exercise suspension or termination and will be at the discretion of the FEMARegion II RAC Chair in consultation with the State Exercise Director.

Exercise Rules

The following are the general rules that govern exercise play:

* Real-world emergency actions take priority over exercise actions.

• Exercise participants will comply with real-world response procedures, unless otherwisedirected by control staff. 127






0 All communications (written, radio, telephone, etc.) made during the exercise will beginand end with the phrase, "This is an exercise. "

Exercise participants placing telephone calls or initiating radio communication must identify theorganization, agency, office, and/or individual with whom they wish to speak.

Safety Requirements

General

Exercise participant safety takes priority over exercise events. Although the organizationsinvolved in the Indian Point Unit 3 REP Exercise come from various response agencies, theyshare the basic responsibility for ensuring a safe environment for all personnel involved in theexercise. In addition, aspects of an emergency response are dangerous. Professional health andsafety ethics should guide all participants to operate in their assigned roles in the safest mannerpossible. The following general requirements apply to the exercise:

" All exercise controllers, evaluators, and staff will serve as safety observers while theexercise activities are underway. Any safety concerns must be immediately reported tothe player/facility supervisor and to the facility's Lead Controller for a prompt decisionon the best manner to proceed.

" Participants will be responsible for their own and each other's safety during the exercise.It is the responsibility of all persons associated with the exercise to stop play if, in theiropinion, a real safety problem exists. Once the problem is corrected, exercise play can berestarted.

* All organizations will comply with their respective environmental, health, and safetyplans and procedures, as well as the appropriate Federal, State, and local environmentalhealth and safety regulations.

Exercise Setup

Exercise setup involves the pre-staging and dispersal of exercise materials; including registrationmaterials, documentation, signage, and other equipment as appropriate.

Accident Reporting and Real Emergencies

" Anyone observing a participant who is seriously ill or injured will first advise the nearestcontroller, then if possible, renders aid, provided the aid does not exceed his or hertraining.

* The controller who is made aware of a real emergency will announce "Real WorldEmergency" to exercise participants and provide the following information at theirlocation:

o Location/situationo Condition 128o Requirements


After Action Report/Improvement Plan " . . Indian Point Energy Center



If the nature of the emergency requires a suspension of the exercise at the location/function,all exercise activities at that facility will immediately cease. Exercise play may resume at thatlocation/function once the "Real-World Emergency" situation has been addressed. The LeadFEMA Evaluator at the affected location must notify the RAC Chair.

" Exercise play at other locations/functions should not cease if one location/function hasdeclared a "Real-World Emergency" unless they are reliant on the affected location.

• If a real emergency occurs that affects the entire exercise, the exercise may be suspendedor terminated at the discretion of the FEMA Region II RAC Chair in consultation withthe NYSOEM Exercise Director.

Site Access

Security

Each evaluated jurisdiction/agency will control entry to the exercise at their location. To preventconfusion and interruption of the exercise, access to the exercise sites will be limited to exerciseparticipants only. Exercise observers must have approval of the respective lead facility agency ateach venue. Players should advise their location's controller or evaluator if an unauthorizedperson is present. Each organization should follow its internal security procedures, augmented asnecessary to comply with exercise requirements.

Observer Coordination

Each jurisdiction/agency with observers will coordinate with the State Controller or Lead FEMAEvaluator for access to the exercise site. Observers will be escorted to an observation area fororientation and conduct of the exercise. All observers will be asked to remain within thedesignated observation area during the exercise. The State Controller and/or the FEMAEvaluator will be present to explain the exercise program and answer questions for the observersduring the exercise.

Parking and Directions

Parking information and directions to each location will be provided to all exercise participants.

Restroom Facilities

Restroom facilities will be available at each venue.

Exercise Identification

All exercise personnel, players, controllers, evaluators and observers will be identified by issuedidentification badges or by other identification means.

Player Communication

Players will use in-place agency communication systems as outlined in plans and procedures.Additional communication assets may be made available as the exercise progresses. The need tomaintain capability for a real-world response may preclude the use of certain communicationchannels or systems that would usually be available for an actual emergency incident. In noinstance will exercise communication interfere with real-world emergency communications.Each jurisdiction/agency will coordinate its own internal communication networks and channels.

Player Briefing

Controllers may be required to read specific scenario details to the participants to begin exerciseplay. They may also have technical handouts or other materials to give to players in order tobetter orient them to the exercise environment.

Public Affairs

This exercise enables Players to demonstrate an increased readiness to deal with a nuclear powerplant incident. Any nuclear power plant exercise may be a newsworthy event.

FEMA Evaluators are not authorized to make statements to the media concerning the IndianPoint Unit 3 REP Exercise. For the Indian Point exercise, media inquiries should be directed toWilliam Douglass of FEMA Region II External Affairs (office number 212-680-3665 and cellnumber 917-561-3223).Other participating jurisdictions will assign media contacts as appropriate.

CHAPTER 3: PLAYER GUIDELINES

Exercise Staff

Exercise Director

The Exercise Director (New York State Office of Emergency Management) has the overallresponsibility for planning, coordinating, and overseeing all exercise functions. He/she managesand monitors the exercise activities from the main Control Cell and maintains a close dialoguewith the Lead Controllers and the FEMA RAC Chair or designee regarding the status of play andthe achievement of the exercise design objectives.

Lead Controllers

The Lead Controllers (State Office of Emergency Management) monitor exercise progress ateach venue and coordinate decisions regarding deviations or significant changes to the scenariocaused by unexpected developments during play. The Lead Controllers monitor actions byindividual Controllers and ensure they implement all designated and modified actions at theappropriate time. The Lead Controllers debrief the Controllers after the exercise and oversees thesetup and takedown of the exercise and assembly of pertinent documentation at each venue.

Controllers

At least one controller (State Office of Emergency Management and other designatedindividuals) will stationed at each venue and field team participating in the exercise, and at eachout-of-sequence interview. The Lead Controller at each location will coordinate any changes thatimpact the scenario or affect other areas of play through the Lead Controller. The individualcontrollers issue exercise materials to players as required and monitor the exercise timeline.Controllers also provide injects to the players as described in the MSEL.

Lead Evaluator/Team Leader

The FEMA RAC Chair or designee assumes the role of Lead Evaluator for the Exercise. FEMATeam Leaders are responsible for the overall evaluation of his/her assigned location. The RACChair or designee monitors exercise progress and stays in contact with the Exercise Directorregarding changes to the exercise during play. The Team Leaders monitor actions of individualEvaluators and ensures they are tracking progress of the players in accordance with REPExercise criteria and the Extent of Play. The Team Leaders are responsible for collecting copiesof all pertinent exercise generated material at their location.

Evaluators

Evaluators (FEMA staff and FEMA contractorl)b3,ork under the direction of the RAC Chair andTeam Leaders in partnership with Controllers. Evaluators are subject matter experts who recordevents that take place during the exercise and assess/submit documentation for review and






inclusion in the After Action Report (AAR). Evaluators should refrain from any directinteraction with the players during exercise play except with the facilitation of a Controller forclarification of information, during scheduled interviews, or coordination of re-demonstrations.

Player Instructions

Before the Exercise

* Review the appropriate emergency plans, procedures, and exercise support documents.

* Wear appropriate uniform/identification badge.

* If you gain knowledge of the scenario before the exercise, notify a controller so thatappropriate actions can be taken to ensure a valid evaluation.

" Please sign in.

During the Exercise

* Respond to the exercise events and information as if the emergency were real, unlessotherwise directed by an exercise controller.

* Controllers will only give you information they are specifically directed to disseminate.You are expected to obtain other necessary information through existing emergencyinformation channels.

* Do not engage in personal conversations with controllers, evaluators, observers, or mediapersonnel while the exercise is in progress. If you are asked an exercise-related question,give a short, concise answer. If you are busy and cannot immediately respond, indicateso, but report back with an answer at the earliest time possible.

* If you do not understand the scope of the exercise or if you are uncertain about anorganization's or agency's participation in an exercise, ask a controller.

* Parts of the scenario may seem implausible. Recognize that the exercise has objectives tosatisfy and may require the incorporation of unrealistic aspects. Note that every effort hasbeen made by the trusted agents to balance realism with safety and the creation of aneffective learning and evaluation environment.

* All exercise communication will begin and end with the phrase "This is an exercise."This is a precaution taken so anyone overhearing the conversation will not mistake theexercise play for a real-world emergency.

* When communicating with other jurisdictions/agencies, identify the organization,agency, office, and/or individual with which you want to speak.

" Maintain a log of your activities. Many times, this log may include documentation ofactivities missed by a controller or evaluator.

CHAPTER 4: EVALUATION AND POST-EXERCISE ACTIVITIES

Exercise Documentation

The goal of the Indian Point Unit 3 REP Exercise is to comprehensively exercise and evaluatethe OROs' plans, policies, procedures and capabilities as they pertain to a potential nuclearpower plant incident. After the exercise, data collected by Controllers, Evaluators, and Playerswill be used to identify strengths and areas for improvement in the context of the exercise designobjectives.

Exercise Evaluation Guides

FEMA has developed Exercise Evaluation Guides (EEGs) that identify expected activities forevaluation, provide consistency across exercises, and link individual tasks to disciplines andexpected outcomes.

Each Evaluator will be provided with one or more EEG(s) that will assist in the evaluator'spreparation regarding what data to collect during the exercise, how to record it, and how toanalyze it before submission to FEMA Region II staff. The FEMA Region II staff will compileall evaluator submissions into the first working draft of the AAR.

Each EEG provides a list of subordinate activities and tasks which, along with plans, policies,procedures and other assessment tools, will be used to demonstrate satisfactory performance inmeeting the specified capability.

Participants and Public/Media Briefings

The Participants Briefing will be conducted on Friday, October 5, 2012, at 1000 hr, at theDoubleTree Hotel, Tarrytown, NY. The participants briefing will permit open discussionconcerning preliminary exercise evaluation results and permit clarification of any preliminaryissues. Small group break-out sessions will be held at 0900 hr, prior to the Participants Briefing.The Public/Media Briefing will be conducted on Friday, October 5, 2012, at 1200 hr, at theDoubleTree Hotel, Tarrytown, NY.

After Action Report/Improvement Plan (AAR/IP)

The FEMA AAR/IP is the culmination of the exercise. It is a written report detailing the exerciseevaluation results. The AAR/IP will include the timeline, executive summary, scenariodescription, mission outcomes, and capability analysis. The AAR/IP will identify any areas forimprovement (e.g., Areas Requiring Corrective Action or planning issues) that requireresolution. Follow-up on issues resolution will S4he responsibility of respective participatingorganizations for the issues that are assigned to them.
