The Transportation Emergency Preparedness Program has eight Model Procedures available for emergency response agencies. The Model Procedures are designed to help remedy procedural weaknesses that the agency has identified during an assessment. Conducting the TEPP Model Needs Assessment can assist agencies to assess their capabilities for responding to a radioactive material transportation incident.
An actual emergency tests the integrated capability and a major portion of the basic elements existing within emergency preparedness plans and training for organizations. In exercises, players respond to an accident scenario as they would in an actual emergency. By design, each TEPP exercise scenario package provides the items necessary to conduct an evaluated exercise. The TEPP transportation exercises are formatted to meet Department of Homeland Security Exercise and Evaluation Program. The TEPP exercise templates provide basic response organization objectives, a comprehensive accident scenario, master sequence of events timeline, supporting radiological, medical messages, and logistical information examples.
These double-sided job aids were developed as quick reference guides on response techniques.
