Initial Conditions - Those conditions set forth in the drill scenario that must be met before the

drill can be initiated.

Objective - Specific measurable performance objectives that are used for drills. These

objectives are designed to demonstrate or test specific portions of participants'

knowledge of facility operations.

Observer - One who is responsible for observing a drill, but who is not authorized to interact with

facility operating personnel.

Restoration - The return of facility equipment to a desired and specified condition to permit

continued operation. Identification of final facility condition following the normal

completion of a drill scenario.

Simulation - An enactment representing a real situation. Specific events of the scenario may be

simulated for practical reasons during a drill (operations of critical facility equipment,

entrance into high radiation areas, etc.).

Termination Conditions - (1) Those conditions as described in the drill scenario that when met

terminate the drill and restore the facility to a safe condition. (2) Those limits, established

in the drill scenario, that if exceeded during the conduct of the drill require an immediate

halt to the drill and a return to a safe and stable condition.
