mber of radios needed to support operational recovery teams (such as those that would normally operate from the OSC) expected to be involved during a LOLA event. That number of radios (with associated batteries and chargers) is to be provided in a location at least 100 yards from the power block. A communications scheme, using multiple radio channels, should be established to minimize crosstalk and confusion during an event. The plans and strategies for providing communication equipment should be described in the application in a manner consistent with guidance in Appendix D of NEI 06-12, Revision 3 and subsequently implemented in the site procedures by the licensee. Radios for Items B.1.i and B.2.b should not be the same radios. They may be stored in the same location; however, these radios may all need to be in service simultaneously and cannot be 5 Interoperability – Ability for emergency responders from different organizations to communicate with each other by radio, e.g., on site fire brigade can communicate with offsite fire department or with the offsite law enforcement organization. 19.4-9 Revision 0 – May 2013 shared. Credit should be given to mitigation strategies that provide for augmentation of radios from offsite resources. 10. Mass Casualties (Item B.1.j) The handling of a mass casualty situation should be addressed in site guidelines. It is important to pre-plan for an event of mass casualties (an event beyond the typical contaminated injured individual medical emergency). Use of county or state mass casualty plans is acceptable, as long as the site plans reference the framework of those offsite procedures. If a state or county mass casualty plan is not utilized, then there should be assurance that the existing medical mutual aid/MOU response framework can deliver adequate medical capabilities. Additional regional medical resources may need to be sought. Licensees are not required to have the medical expertise or equipment onsite to treat
