DOE-HDBK-6004-99
Public Information
An emergency public information program should be developed to ensure that necessary public affairs
actions are planned, coordinated and taken as an integral part of the total emergency response effort.
Emergency Facilities and Equipment
Facilities and equipment, adequate to support emergency response, should be established and
maintained as follows:
1. An Emergency Operations Center (EOC) should be established from which the emergency
response organization assesses, evaluates, coordinates, and directs emergency response activities
and communicates within DOE and offsite response organizations.
2. The staffing, operation, and response activities pertaining to the EOC, should be predetermined
and documented in procedures for a timely and coordinated overall emergency response.
3. Primary and backup means of communications should be available.
4. Adequate equipment and supplies should be available and operable for emergency response
personnel to carry out their respective duties and responsibilities.
5. Training
6. Training must be provided to effected workers regarding operational emergencies, and specialized
training must be conducted for workers and be available to offsite emergency response
organizations.
7. Training should be provided annually to workers who may have to take protective actions (e.g.,
assembly, evacuation) in the event of an emergency.
8. A training program should be in place for the instruction and qualification of personnel (i.e.,
primary and alternate) comprising the facility emergency response organization to include initial
training and bi-annual retraining for both onsite and offsite incidents, including transportation
incidents.
9. Retraining should include training on weaknesses detected during drills and exercises, changes
to plans and procedures, and lessons learned from emergencies at other facilities.
10. Offsite emergency response organizations should be offered facility-specific orientation training
and information on hazards and emergency response bi-annually.
Drills and Exercises
A coordinated program of drills and exercises should be an integral part of the emergency
management program as follows:
