LLNL Emergency Management Plan (EPlan) Rev 27 January 2022 76 The LEDO notifies the Director’s Office and other applicable senior LLNL and LLNS management in accordance with notification policies and protocols. The ERO will be called out via AtHoc, a digital system that uses telephones to relay appropriate event information. A manual call-out back-up system, utilizing the ORDO, is also available. The EMDO has the responsibility for offsite notifications until the EOC has been declared operational and the LEDO has assumed the role of ED and accepts responsibility for all subsequent notifications. 6.1.3 Departmental Radiological Emergency Response Assets When there is a need for offsite DOE/NNSA national assets to support an onsite emergency response, the ED may make a request through NNSA/LFO. Position checklists for the LFO Emergency Manager (LFO 151.1.1, Emergency Response Oversight) and the LLNL ED (EPO-Checklist-03, Emergency Director) ensure requests for national assets are properly coordinated through LFO when the EOC is operational. If an onsite emergency is not in progress, requests for national assets will be directed to the LEDO, who will forward the request to the LLNL Deployment Point-of-Contact per the current version of the LEDO Quick Reference Handbook. The LLNL Deployment Point-of-Contact coordinates the request with LFO. 6.1.4 NNSA Field and Headquarters Operations Center Watch Office Notifications The EMDO has the responsibility for offsite notifications until the EOC has been declared operational and the LEDO has assumed the role of ED and accepts responsibility for all subsequent notifications. Upon declaration of an Operational Emergency, NNSA/LFO and the DOE/NNSA HQ Operations Center Watch Office are notified via telephone, telefax and/or e-mail, as a part of the offsite notification process per PPD plans/procedures. They will also be notified via AtHoc as a back-up. NNSA/LFO and DOE/NNSA HQ Operations Center Watch Office will continue to receive subsequent notifications and updates throughout the emergency. Additionally, under DOE Order 151.1D, if the LLNL EOC is activated for an incident not categorized as an Operational Emergency, LLNL must notify LFO and the DOE Headquarters Watch Office within 30 minutes of the EOC becoming operational. 6.1.5 Notifications from Department of Energy Headquarters DOE HQ has a process for issuing time sensitive important notifications to DOE sites. These notifications may relate to national emergency situations, site security conditions, or DOE/NNSA continuity of operations, and normally require a positive acknowledgement by the DOE site. Notifications are sent from DOE HQ by both recorded telephone message and email to the point-of-contact identified by the site. ACRECC serves as the 24 hours-a-day initial point-of- contact at LLNL. When ACRECC receives a DOE HQ notification message, Fire Dispatch personnel acknowledge the notification as directed by the message, and then provide the message information to the
