Status of FRMAC DOE National Nuclear Security

Status of FRMAC DOE / National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) Consequence Management Response Team (CMRT) : Concept of Operations Status as of April 2005 Colleen O’Laughlin, NNSA FRMAC/CM Program Manager

General Concept of Operations • Deployment is in Three Standard Phases in Analogy with Nationally Accepted Guidelines – CMRT Phase I (“Emergency Phase”) – CMRT Phase II (“Intermediate Phase”) – CMRT Phase III (“Characterization Phase”) • Focus on Technical/Operational Response Needed Within Each Phase to Address Protective Action Guidelines (PAGs) • Defined Personnel / Equipment Packages • Defined Transportation Plans

Transportation • Single aircraft (each) for Emergency and Intermediate Phases deploying out of Las Vegas • All equipment and personnel deploy on single aircraft • Phase I - 4 hours wheels up • Phase II - 12 hours wheels up • Phase III - deploys from 24 -48 hours out of National Laboratories / Remote RAP Regions • Mobile Laboratories deploy with Ingestion Phase

CMRT Phase I Overview • Mission – Validate or Modify Initial Protective Action Decisions for Protection of the Public – Evacuation & Shelter-in -Place • Operations – Small, rapidly-deployable team focused on obtaining and assessing gross field monitoring measurements. Close coordination with NARAC, AMS Fixed-Wing, and CM Home Teams – Staffed for 24 -Hour Operations and Stand-alone response (Consumables for 72 hours without resupply)

CMRT Phase I • Team – 32 Personnel Total – Includes EPA Senior Official for Remediation Planning • Equipment Load – 2500 lbs. (200 cubic feet) • Logistics / Transportation – 4 Hour Wheels-Up Response out of Las Vegas

CMRT Phase II Overview • Mission – Accurately define areas where long-term relocation of the population may be warranted – EPA Relocation PAGs – Support Temporary Re-Entry of Population into Evacuated Areas • Operations – Augmentation to CMRT Phase II – Focuses on obtaining detailed monitoring data and initiating a comprehensive sampling/analysis process for Characterization and eventual handoff to EPA. – Close coordination with AMS Rotary-Wing assets and CM Home Teams – Requires augmented analytical support capability – Staffed for 24 -Hour Operations and Stand-alone response for weeks. Consumables must be re-supplied every few days.

CMRT Phase II • Team – 32 Additional Personnel • Equipment Load – 39, 000 lbs (2400 cubic feet) • Analytical Support – Sample Screening – Management of Laboratory Data – Chain of Custody – Coordination of Fixed Laboratory Support to FRMAC – Fielding of Sample Screening Capability • Logistics / Transportation – 12 Hour Wheels-Up Response out of Las Vegas

CMRT Phase III Overview • Mission – Accurately identify areas where contamination levels of air, water, crops, forage, and livestock may lead to concentrations in excess of nationally accepted guidelines - Dose through Ingestion Pathways • Operations – Augmentation of Emergency and Intermediate Phase Response Teams – Focuses on obtaining detailed sampling/analysis data. Close coordination with AMS Rotary-Wing assets and CM Home Teams – Staffed for 24 -Hour Operations and Stand-alone response for weeks. Consumables must be resupplied every few days.

CMRT Phase III • Team – 46 Additional Personnel • Equipment – 4500 lbs. (200 cubic feet) • Analytical Support – NNSA Mobile Laboratory (Hot. Spot) • Logistics / Transportation – 24 -48 Hour Response out of National Laboratories / Remote RAP Regions

Sample Analysis Needs • Analytical equipment to analyze samples on site – To insure compliance with DOT shipping regulations – For shipping samples to off-site facilities for analysis – Equipment Maintenance, Training and Drill • Upgrade HOTSPOT • Quality Assurance / Quality Control Samples

CM Home Teams • Will bridge gap between call-out and arrival and support deployed operations • Virtual, Integrated Home Team stood up at – RSL, LANL, LLNL, SNL, and NARAC • Reach back capabilities • Provide FRMAC Web passwords to approved personnel • Maintain FRMAC database of products developed

Proposed “Greenfield” Response for CM Provide capability to set up Technical Operations Center (TOC) and Forward Operations Center (FOC) in “Green Field” • Includes tents, tables, chairs, generators to set up TOC (C&C, Assessment, GIS, Database) and FOC (Field Monitoring Operations Center) • Does not include berthing and in-field meals – assume local infrastructure or Do. D will provide support

What We’re Working On • Turbo FRMAC – Print functionality – Uranium ratio calculation tool – Improvements on User Interface Intuitiveness – Incorporate Default Scenarios • Integration With: – ERDS and RSL GIS Tools – RASCAL output – LLNL ARAC Effects Modeling Tools – SNL ACRID and SHARC Effects Modeling Tools – EPA tools for final event cleanup

What We’re Working On (Cont. ) • CM/FRMAC Laboratory Analysis – HOTSPOT – In-Field Laboratory Analysis – Laboratory Information Management System -LIMS – Laboratory Database

What We’re Working On (Cont. ) Pet Portal Radiological Assessment Training System (RATS) -Drill & Exercise data program -PDA/GPS based

What We’re Working On (Cont. ) • • • FRMAC LAN Field Team Data Telemetry Automated M&S Forms Procedures FRMAC Website Updates FRMAC Web Server

What We’re Working On (Cont. ) • Integrated FRMAC Presentation • Request for Federal Play in IPXs • Population Monitoring

FRMAC Manuals • Health & Safety, May 2001 • M&S – Monitoring Division Volume I, April 2004 – Radiation Monitoring and Sampling Volume II, Sep 2002 • Assessment, April 2003 – Methods, Volume I – Tables, Worksheets, Volume II – Default Scenarios, Volume III • Laboratory Analysis, June 2004 • FRMAC Operations, June 2004 – With Addendums for Logistics and Positions • FRMAC Mission Analysis
