LLNL Emergency Management Plan (EPlan) Rev 27 January 2022 101 • Requesting support staff/liaison (e.g., ES&H, Security, Public Affairs) be assigned to the recovery team • Managing the recovery effort • Coordinating Laboratory interactions with contractors, vendors, and offsite organizations • Communicating and coordinating with offsite Federal, State, and local officials as needed • Approving media releases (in coordination with the EBCC and NNSA/LFO) regarding recovery • Ensuring that recovery operations are documented Once the emergency has terminated, the appointed Recovery Manager reports to the Laboratory Director and/or EBCC. Since the EOC needs to be ready to activate in response to another Operational Emergency, the recovery team will most likely work out of a location other than the EOC, such as the EBCC, a DOC, or other available facility. 11.2.2 Reentry Phase Any facility that shows evidence of structural damage should not be entered by unqualified personnel. Fire Department personnel, assisted by Structural Evaluation Assessment Field Teams and ES&H Teams, are qualified to enter a structurally-damaged building for situation assessment and recovery planning. Where structural damage has clearly not occurred, reentry activities at a facility and locally affected areas are initiated when the emergency conditions have stabilized such that damage assessments can be safely accomplished. These activities should be conducted prior to the termination of the emergency to assist in recovery planning, or they may be conducted post- termination during the recovery phase of operations. The reentry plan should also describe: areas to be surveyed, anticipated contamination levels, protective equipment and shielding requirements, decontamination requirements and communications requirements. The Recovery Manager or ES&H Team Leader is normally responsible for the reentry phase during the post- termination recovery phase. 11.2.3 Recovery Phase Once conditions have stabilized and termination of the emergency has been recommended, the recovery phase may be initiated. Steps in this process may include: • Assessment of the health and safety of potentially affected workers • Assessment of hazards from the impacted facilities • Assessment of the airborne release or ground spill • Assessment of damage to critical systems and functions • Assessment of potentially-compromised security systems • Assessment of the root cause of the event (accident investigation)
