SAMPLE EXERCISE NEWS RELEASE TEXAS OPERATIONS PLAN RADIOLOGICAL DEFENSE (RADEF) EXERCISE JUNE 27, 1984 PURPOSE To train Emergency Management Directors /Coordinators (EMD /C), Radiological Defense Officers (RDO), Radiological Monitors (RM), and Emergency Operating Centers (EOC) staff personnel in RADEF procedures under nuclear attack and radioactive fallout conditions. OBJECTIVES To evaluate the following functions. A. RADEF Communications net. B. County and city leaders ability to function and to provide survival protection to the maximum number of individuals during nuclear attack and fallout conditions. C. State agencies and subagencies abilities to support local leaders during nuclear attack and fallout conditions. D. To test backup and alternate communications systems in the event electromagnetic pulse (EMP) damages equipment. E. The effectiveness of the "Host" areas to adequately support the added population that would be experienced if Crisis Relocation Plans were implemented under conditions of radioactive fallout.

Wind speed and direction will be interpreted from the above given downwind fallout (DF) data. 4. The attack will be expected with a four day lead time and citizen relocation from "Risk" areas to "Host "areas will be simula e . "Risk" area RADEF will be expected to support their "Host" area RADEF staffs. 5. Radiation levels for each NUDET will be forwarded by message. B. Time frame of June 27, 1984, exercise will be as follows: 8:00 a.m. = D-4 Day - Situation: World conditions are deteriorating. 8:10 a.m. = D-3 Day - Situation: SiimulatetCrisis Relocation Plans implemented. -4- 8:20 a.m. = D -2 Day - Situation: World situation is deteriorating rapidly. General war is probable. 8:30 a.m.= D -1 Day - Situation: World leaders have severed diplomatic relations. Nuclear attack appears imminent. 8:40 a.m. = D Day - Situation: Attack Warning is dispatched over TAWAS. 9:00 a.m. = D Day - Situation: Simulated Nuclear attack on USA. NUDET reports promptly dispatched. 10:00 a.m. = H + 1 Hour - Radioactive fallout is beginning to spread over large areas of the USA. 11:00 a.m. = H + 2 Hours - Reports made per sealed envelope and Annex D Appendix 3 instructions. 12:00 a.m. = H + 3 Hours - Reports made per sealed envelope and Annex D Appendix 3 instructions. 1:00 p.m. = H + 7 Hours - Reports made per sealed envelope and Annex D Appendix 3 instructions. 2:00 p.m. = H + 24 Hours - Reports made per sealed envelope and Annex D Appendix 3 instructions. 3:00 p.m. = H + 48 Hours - Reports made per sealed envelope and Annex D Appendix 3 instructions. 3 :30 p.m. = H + 94 Hours - Reports made per sealed envelope and Annex D Appendix 3 instructions. 4:00 p.m. = H + 168 Hours - Reports made per sealed envelope and Annex D Appendix 3 instructions. 4:15 p.m. = Exercise terminated 4:25 p.m. = Exercise critiqued C. Reporting Procedure 1. All messages (wire, radio, telephone, etc.) will begin with the term "EXERCISE" and end with the term "EXERCISE ". DO NOT FORGET! -5- 2. Reports from WERS, fallout shelters, operating emergency crews, and city EOCs will be reported to the county EOC. The county EOC Emergency Managment Director /Coordinator and /or RDO will assemble and relay the information to their County Maintenance Section of TDHPT. 3. Each County TDHPT Maintenance Section will relay the information to their TDHPT District office. The District TDHPT office will forward the reports to the State Disaster District office of the reporting county. 4. NUDET summaries and fallout warning reports will be transmitted from the State EOC through the NAWAS and TAWAS systems to DPS regional and district offices and TAWAS stations. Reports to individual counties from DPS warning points will be by established procedures. 5. Counties will report using their operational reporting areas number (Attachment 112). 6. Problems requiring reports from you will be mailed under seperate cover. 7.

TASK The RDO is responsible for establishing and implementing the procedures in this Appendix. II. OPERATING PROCEDURES A. Facilities to be used as Reporting Stations should have a PF of 40 or upgradeable. Guidelines in CPG 1 -30 pages 2 -65 thru 2 -82 can be utilized. Public shelters should be used as Reporting Stations to the maximum extent possible. B. The "Local Radiation Report" form (See Attachment) will be utilized by shelters, EOCs, Emergency Operating Locations, and RMs. C. A NUDET report MUST be sent giving direction, in terms of the 16 points of the compass, and miles away from the reporting location. D. Radiation Level and Status Reports: 1. Report initital fallout when the outside radiation exposure rate reaches or exceeds .5 Roentgens per hour (R /hr). 2. Ongoing fallout reports should be made when outside exposure rate rises or falls for each 50 R /hr. increase or decrease. 3. Report peak outside exposure rate. 4. Serious damage information should be reported as soon as practicable to next higher EOC. 5. Operational Situation Status should be reported when a major problem arises. (such as) a. If a county or municipal government is not functioning or destroyed, report. b. If a serious health hazard exists, exclude radiation sickness, report. c. If critical facilities vital to national survival and recovery have been badly damaged, report. d. If critical shortages of survival resources are imminent, report. E. The State EOC shall make NUDET summaries and fallout forecast reports thru channels to local jurisdictions and to FEMA as required by CPG -2 -10 series.

Chernow (512) 465 -2138 A radiological fallout exercise will be conducted June 27, 1984, throughout the state of Texas. The Texas Department of Health, Governor's Division of Emergency Manage- ment, Texas Department of Public Safety, and State Department of Highways and Public Transportation will work together with local emergency management coordi- nators in this National Defense Exercise. The exercise will allow local coordinators the opportunity to test their equipment and capabilities for reporting fallout problems and solutions from local areas to district, state and federal operating centers, according to Robert Lansford, state coordinator for the Division of Emergency Management. In fulfilling Texas' role in the National Defense and Preparedness Program over the last two decades, the State Health Department has positioned monitoring sets statewide and conducted extensive radiological training programs. Local volunteers have been trained to advise citizens on when and how to take shelter. In the test, a nuclear detonation is simulated and emergency operating centers are activated in counties and cities. Radioactive fallout is predicted and plotted based on wind speed and direction, and nuclear preparedness plans for each area's population are reviewed. To maintain a complete network for the state, thirty -six (36) specialists from the State Department of Health and fifty (50) state highway engineers have been trained as Radiological Defense Officers. The State Highway Department and the Department of Public Safety's communi- cations systems will be used as the network for reporting. Four days of work will be simulated in one day. The exercise will begin at 8:00 a.m. and conclude at 4:00 p.m. Coordination for this exercise will be provided by state agency representa- tives from the underground Emergency Operating Center at the Department of Public Safety headquarters in Austin. -30- Attachment #5 v • • ` • a III • • LAY LEAGUE RADIOGRAM - VIA AMA TEUF7 H NUMBER PREKENCE HX N ATI S E 7 OF�IGIN 4HECK e i#1 �� � LACE OF ORIGIN o c i z re d 12 r 3kpe DATE To q_ d L A' TI 2 THIS RADIO MESSAGE WAS RECEIVED AT AMATEUR STATION PHONE NAME STREET ADDRESS .
