2 Coordination for Emergencies is provided by Republic Act No , (Approved 27 May 2010) An Act Strengthening the Philippine Disaster Risk Reduction and Management System, providing for the National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Framework and institutionalizing the National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Plan, appropriating Funds therefor and for other purposes Proposed Comprehensive Nuclear Legislation defines clearer role of regulatory body for EPR New legislation for nuclear power program will define clearly arrangements for nuclear emergencies.

3 Objective: Establish an organized national emergency response capability Scope: All kinds of radiological emergencies involving the operation of nuclear and radiation facilities; use and transport of radioactive materials, and accidents occurring outside of the Philippines with a significant impact on the country

4 RA 2067 The Science Act of 1958 created the PNRI with a dual mandate to promote the peaceful applications of atomic energy and regulate the use of radioactive materials RA 5207 An Act Providing for the Licensing and Regulation of Atomic Energy Facilities and Materials Developed system of regulations Code of PNRI Regulations (CPRs). Existing regulations for NPP being reviewed. Requirements include emergency plans and procedures by operators of NPP and licensees and owners of radioactive material Radiological emergency planning and preparedness coordination by NDRRMC, with more arrangements with local DRRMCs for NPPs ((site specific)

7 Ambient dose rate measurements in selected areas Marine nvironment monitoring Project RAS/7/021 Marine benchmark study on possible impact of Fukushima radioactive releases in the Asia Pacific Region On-line environmental radiation monitoring system (ERMS) An alert system to detectio n radiation levels on real time (6-10 stations), IAEA TC Project (new) ERMS ERMS ERMS ERMS ERMS ERMS ERMS ERMS ERMS ERMS

8 Recent DOH Order issued by the Undersecretary of Health organizing Technical Working Group for the Development of the Preparedness and Medical Response Plan for Radio-Nuclear Emergencies Specialized hospitals identified for treatment of victim of radiation accidents Medical Response Plan Completed

9 Container vans and cargo from abroad were screened for radioactivity using the radiation monitoring system (RMS) at the Port of Manila

10 Existing procedures and arrangements in place using NDRRMC procedures National arrangements are in coordination with NDRRMC procedures and framework Advocacy and training programs designed for news media practitioners, local government officials, emergency management personnel and members of public

11 Coordination Meetings with concerned agencies Review and Revision of RADPLAN Anti-Terrorism Council meetings and workshops: - development of plans and procedures - lectures on border monitoring, strategic goods trade management, costal monitoring, first responders, other safety and security issues Training Events Drills and Exercises

12 Continuous enhancement of preparedness and response capability Training Drills Exercises Workshops Seminars

13

14 One-week course conducted annually with Japan experts (last conducted Feb. 2014) Local trainors after training in Japan Participants: PNRI response teams, RADPLAN agencies Topics: - Radiation Monitoring - Radiation Protection - Decontamination - Drills and Exercises

15 Latest Exercise (May 2014)- CONVEX3 General Scenario: Suicide Bomber explodes improvised devise busy public place. Dozens reported killed. More injured. Fire is reported in location. Cs-137 contamination is confirmed by radiological assessors. Victims rushed to hospitals

16 Participating provide details and other assumptions not specified in the basic scenario. MS decide to respond to the fax messages from the IAEA USIE and to report protective actions by fax. For Philippines: location of explosion is at a busy train station, in the middle of thickly populated area

17 For Philippines: location of explosion is at a busy train station, in highly populated area in Manila and near a busy highway.

18 Primarily utilized as: Command control center Central communication Central storage area for the equipment for emergency preparedness and response

19 Response Activities: Activation of the RADPLAN Assumed prompt response of first responders (CONVEX scenario) and deployment of rad. assessors Conduct of concurrent Table-top exercise involving PNRI emergency response teams - Activation of PNRI REMCON teams and assignment on 24 hour basis (3 8-hour shifts). - Discussion and analysis of scenario and response planning PNRI Emergency Communications Team assigned to draft press release

20 Conduct of concurrent Communications exercise with selected RADPLAN agencies: NDRRMC/OCD, DOH, PNP, BFP, PAGASA, MMDA - Emergency Messages clearly marked as EXERCISE are sent to the Agencies by fax and are asked to respond by fax that they have received the message and to indicate their plan of response action - Objective: Awareness of RADPLAN Agency of the possibility of radiological incident and to plan out response in accordance with the RADPLAN. Last message to USIE: Request assistance under Assistance Convention

21 The use of SSG-16 for self assessment should be supported by a tool similar to ISE which is based in GSR-2. Use of SARIS tool, EPR module recommended. Upgrading of EPR capabilities and infrastructure is being continued, but heavily dependent on resource availability Generation of resources continue to be a challenge, in view of priorities to natural disaster preparedness and rehabilitation (long term) activities Emergency response and emergency response preparedness and response activities will rely on whatever resource is available at the time it is needed
