ndicate that although preplanned triage areas are defined in the plant documents, the incident commander may choose to locate the triage area at a previously undefined location. 19.4-10 Revision 0 – June 2015 This is the prerogative of the incident commander. In this case, the licensees’ preplanned areas provide options to the incident commander. The plans and strategies for establishing triage areas 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 guidelines by the licensee. 15. Firefighting Training and Exercises The reviewer should verify that the applicant has described the training that will be given to the fire brigade and off site responders to assist them in handling fires that may be caused by a LOLA event. Firefighting training on accelerant-fed fire should be provided to onsite fire brigade members. In addition, fire brigade training should address the coordinated fire response between onsite and offsite fire responders (including interface with operations). Site familiarization training should be provided to local offsite responders and, if possible, information on LOLA event related mitigation strategies and measures should be shared with offsite responders. A site tabletop exercise should be conducted prior to initial fuel load. The site exercise should involve, at a minimum, MOU firefighting responders, site fire brigade, and operations staff to enhance the understanding of the coordinated response strategies for a LOLA event. The tabletop exercise can be held onsite or offsite and should also focus on the coordinated response strategies involving onsite and offsite responders for a LOLA event. The strategies 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 guidelines by the licensee. 16.
