CONCEPT OF OPERATIONS. a. General. The DOE EMS provides the general framework for: the development, coordination, exercise, testing, and validation of emergency plans and procedures; ensuring the readiness of all DOE emergency response capabilities relative to the three broad categories of emergencies DOE 5500.18 4-30-91

procedures; ensuring the readiness of al] DOE emergency response capabilities relative to the three broad categories of emergencies (Operational, Energy, and COG); and the management, coordination, and direction of responses to emergencies. The Under Secretary of Energy serves as the senior DOE policy official for emergency planning and preparedness activities, with implementation responsibilities assigned to the DEO. The Emergency Management Advisory Committee (EMAC), composed of DOE Headquarters (HQ) and field representatives responsible for their respective emergency preparedness programs, supports the DEO in the development of specific policy and technical recommendations affecting DOE emergency preparedness. The resolution of EMS crosscutting issues is provided by the Secretary's Executive Committee. Emergency Management Teams. In response to an emergency, Emergency Management Teams (EMTs) are formed at the Facility, Field Element, and DOE HQ levels. EMTs provide management and direction of emergency response activities. The HQ EMT consists of an Executive Team and a Technical Operations Cadre. The Executive Team provides strategic direction to the response and evaluates the broad impacts of the emergency on the DOE complex. The Technical Operations Cadre provides oversight to the Field Element, coordinates with other Federal agencies, and provides information to the press, Congress, and other Federal agencies. Technical Operations Cadre personnel come from the cognizant Program Office, as well as specialized HQ Offices. EMTs for contractors and DOE Field Elements are organized as appropriate for the facility or organization. Operational Emergencies. (1) Operational Emergencies are significant accidents, incidents, events, or natural phenomena which have, or potentially can, seriously degrade the safety or security of DOE facilities. Operational Emergencies apply to DOE reactors; other DOE facilities (nuclear and non-nuclear) involved with hazardous materials; DOE- controlled nuclear weapons, components, or test devices; radiological assistance responses; DOE safeguards and security events; and transportation accidents involving hazardous material under DOE control. (2) DOE has developed a three-tiered organizational approach that follows the line management chain within the Department for responding to Operational Emergencies. Responsibility begins at the facility level, rises through the cognizant DOE Field Element, and culminates at the cognizant HQ Program Office. (a) The manager of the facility, whether a DOE or a DOE contractor employee, is responsible for: |— Initial identification and categorization of an event; Im Prompt initial notification of an Operational Emergency, including notifications to local, state, tribal, and BOE 5500.1B 4-30-91 (b) (c) [ww leon | Im The Io |— |e foo “fen In |co Federal authorities offsite as required by DOE Orders, such as DOF 5500.2B and 5000.3A, the provisions of legislation, such as CERCLA, RCRA, and EPCRA, or implementing regulations, such as 40 CFR 302; Taking immediate mitigative and corrective actions to minimize the consequences to worker and public health and safety and the environment. Mitigative and corrective actions include recommending appropriate protective actions to local authorities; Continuing such actions until the emergency is resolved; Informing DOE line management about all aspects of the response to the emergency; and

Determining the root cause of the emergency and taking appropriate corrective actions following the emergency. cognizant DOE. Field Element is responsible for: Assuring prompt initial notification to state, tribal, and local governments and others, as appropriate; Assuring proper response by facility managers to any emergency within their facilities; Providing additional technical assistance and support; Monitoring the facility response activities and recommending additional actions, as necessary; Predesignating an On Scene Coordinator for Federal responses under the National Contingency Plan (NCP); Ensuring emergency response actions are coordinated with the cognizant local, state, tribal, and Federal regional organizations; Coordinating additional DOE and other Federal agency resources, as required; and Overseeing the local investigation and closeout of the occurrence, in coordination with the HQ Program Manager (PM) . The cognizant HQ PSO, after consultation with the DEO and with the concurrence of the Under Secretary, convenes the HQ EMT which is responsible for: DOE 5500. 1B 4-30-91 Providing overall management and direction of the DOE 1 ~ emergency response; 2 Coordinating activation and deployment, or assisting the On Scene Coordinator in. the activation and deployment, of other DOE and Federal agency response assets; 3 Coordinating overall public information activities; and 4 Providing the interface with other national-level Federal agencies, Congress, the White House, and international agencies, as appropriate. (d) DOE HQ and the cognizant Field Element receive simultaneous notifications of emergencies from the facility manager. The scope and extent of additional DOE response actions will be determined by the cognizant HQ Program Office in conjunction with the cognizant DOE Field Element. (e} Each of the three organizational elements (Facility, Field Element, and HQ Program Office) is responsible for developing integrated and compatible plans and implementing procedures to effectively and efficiently carry out their responsibilities for responding to an emergency situation involving or affecting a DOE facility under their cognizance. (f) HQ programmatic responsibility for DOE's radiological emergency response assets is assigned to the Assistant Secretary for Defense Programs (DP-1). These assets include the Accident Response Group (ARG), Nuclear Emergency Search Team (NEST), Federal Radiological Monitoring and Assessment Center (FRMAC), Aerial Measuring System (AMS), Atmospheric Release Advisory Capability (ARAC), Radiological Emergency Assistance Center/Training Site (REAC/TS), and Radiological Assistance Program (RAP). Implementation responsibilities for these assets are assigned to specific DOE Operations Offices. Energy Emergencies. The Energy Emergency Management System (EEMS), a subset of the Departmental EMS, provides for DOE development, exercise, testing, and validation of Federal emergency preparedness programs for responding to actual or potential disruptions to the nation's energy supplies. Such disruptions may arise from emergencies caused by catastrophic earthquakes or other natural disasters, national security situations, malevolent acts, technical malfunctions, or economic boycotts and may affect a limited local area, a widespread geographic area, or the nation as a whole.

(1) Within the context of the EEMS, the Office of the Deputy Assistant Secretary for Energy Emergencies (IE-20}, in coordination with the Administrator of the Energy Information Administration (EI-1}, monitors domestic and international energy supply events for DOE 5500.18 7 4-30-91 potential emergency situations. Should a situation arise which has the potential for or actually causes a serious disruption to energy supplies, the Assistant Secretary for International Affairs and Energy Emergencies (IE-1), after consultations with the DEO and with the concurrence of the Under Secretary, will establish a HQ EMT. (2) For Energy Emergencies, the HQ EMT is responsible for: (a) Closely monitoring the energy situation; (b) Developing, coordinating, and implementing DOE HQ response actions; (c) Coordinating the use of resources from the various DOE Field Flements, contractors, DOE operated facilities, and other Federal agency regional offices; (d) Coordinating DOE-related public information activities; and (e) Maintaining interface and coordination with other national - level Federal agencies, the White House, Congress, and international agencies, as appropriate. e. Continuity of Government (COG) Emergencies. The Federal COG emergency preparedness program, a mostly classified program, assures that the constitutional framework of Government wil] continue regardless of the type or severity of disaster or threat to the national security of the United States. (1) Upon declaration of a national security emergency, pre-identified COG Teams, i.e., the National Emergency Management Team (NEMT) and the Regional Emergency Management Teams (REMTs}, from various Federal departments and agencies form a skeletal, constitutionally- based emergency Government organization to support the President and continue the executive functions of the U.S. Government. (2) Due to the critical nature of. DOE energy-related functions, the DOE COG program is of special importance for providing essential defense and civilian energy needs. DOE has COG Teams identified for the HQ and field locations. IE-1 has the DOE lead for coordinating the DOE COG program and ensuring that the DOE satisfies appropriate Federal requirements. 10.
