5.4 Background An Emergency News Center is maintained at the Salem County 911 Center, located on Route 45 outside of Woodstown. Its purpose is to disseminate accurate information to the news media about the event in progress as quickly as possible. It has a media work area, telephone access, and facilities for Media Briefings to support approximately 200 media Nuclear Common Page 4 of 52 Rev. 6

NC.EP-EP.ZZ-0801(Q) personnel. Separate work areas are available for PSEG, Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC), Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), States and local counties.

" Before ENC activation, the normal public information organization is used for non emergency and emergency events as described in the PSEG Nuclear Emergency Plan.

Normal public information functions are activated by the on-call Public Information Manager (PIM) calling the contact in Corporate Communications Department and media representatives.

" The on-call duty ENC staff is called out at Alert or higher emergency classifications.

Under Unusual Event or Alert classifications, the Emergency Coordinator (EC) in conjunction with the on-call duty Company Spokesperson or on-call PIM are responsible for deciding to staff and activate the ENC. Under Site Area Emergency or General Emergency classifications, the ENC is always activated. Normal staffing and reporting relationships are shown in the PSEG Nuclear Emergency Plan Figure 3-4, ENC Organization with External Interface.

"* While the ENC is activated, plant information and News Bulletins concerning the emergency are approved by the Company Spokesperson or designee per existing agreements on News Bulletins between PSEG and the States.

"* A Public Information Liaison (PIL) is located in the Emergency Operations Facility (EOF),

to ensure that the Emergency Response Organization provides accurate and timely information to the ENC.

"* The ENC could remain activated in a limited capacity after an emergency has been terminated and other Emergency Response Facilities may have been deactivated. The ENC can remain activated to support the Recovery Management Organization (RMO) as long as media interest has not subsided to a level that can be handled through the Company's normal public information functions.

ATTACHMENT 20 Page 1 of 3 NEWS BULLETIN GUIDELINES These guidelines should be used when authoring and reviewing News Bulletins or other news statements during an emergency event at Salem or Hope Creek Nuclear Generating Station.

Refer to wall chart that lists events and issues that must be included in a News Bulletin.

Issue chronological summaries and backgrounders as time permits. A Chronology of Events should be issued approximately every four hours. DO NOT include information in the chronology of events that has not been released previously in a News Bulletin or Media Briefing.

Layout and Style Double-space all News Bulletins.

Place the following at top right of each News Bulletin:

News Bulletin #

Contact Telephone Number: (856) 273-0282 Date For Immediate Distribution Time [a.m./p.m.] [DST/EST]

The time is added after final approval is obtained and News Bulletin is ready to issue.

Use this dateline: Salem County, NJ Capitalize Unusual Event, Alert, Site Area Emergency and General Emergency.

Use a.m./p.m. clock time with DST (Daylight Savings Time) or EST (Eastern Standard Time). DO NOT use military time.

Content Describe the latest event or change in emergency status. Focus on one primary item, then add new secondary information.

Use a new lead in each News Bulletin.

Use short sentences.

Arrange information from most important to least important.

Use simple language that is not technical. Reference the Technical Translator.

Nuclear Common Page 47 of 52 Rev. 6

NC.EP-EP.ZZ-0801(Q)

ATTACHMENT 20 Page 2 of 3 DO NOT rehash prior News Bulletins. Use information from prior News Bulletins and Media Briefings in Chronology of Events.

DO NOT use industry jargon or technical terms. Reference the Technical Translator.

If verified and appropriate, the second or third paragraph should include the statement: "There has been no release of radioactive material beyond normal levels. Federal, state and local government authorities have been notified in accordance with regulatory requirements."

DO NOT release names of any plant workers injured during the emergency until it is verified that their families have been notified.

If injured personnel were transported to a hospital, the name of the hospital may be released.

DO NOT include: "No action is required on the part of the public." Only the states and counties can make that determination and provide that information. We will NOT provide information about public evacuation or protective actions ordered by the states or counties.

End News Bulletin with a closing statement such as: "More details will follow as they become available."

The following should be at the bottom of or attached to each News Bulletin issued from the Emergency News Center:

NOTE TO EDITORS: PSEG Nuclear, the owner/operator of the Salem/Hope Creek Nuclear Generating Stations, has opened an Emergency News Center at the Salem County 911 Center located on Route 45 outside of Woodstown. A company spokesperson will hold periodic briefings. State and county spokespersons will also be available. Media representatives can also obtain information by calling (856) 273-0188, 0282, 0386, 0479 or 0586.

DO NOT use the phrase "non essential personnel were relocated." Use "All plant personnel not involved in dealing with the emergency have stopped work and been sent home."

Use this phrase when appropriate: "The public is advised to stay tuned to a local Emergency Alert System (EAS) radio station for the latest information and official instructions."

If a release of radioactive material occurs, provide projected doses in millirem or rem and compare to radiation health effects in press kits. For example: a chest X-ray results in an exposure of 50 millirems.

A Loss of Coolant Accident (LOCA) can involve either a small break or large break in a pipe connected to the reactor. Find out which one before including information in a News Bulletin. DO NOT use the term "LOCA."

The ENC Manager should make a brief announcement to the media representatives at the ENC when the emergency classification changes and provide information as to why the emergency classification changed. No questions should be answered, but the scheduled time for the next full Media Briefing should be given to the media.

"* A Media Briefing can be held to address incorrect or misleading information that is being provided by several media outlets.

"* ENC staff and Public Information Officers and Spokespersons for Federal agencies, States and Counties should be briefed concerning new information before it is announced to the media.

"* Each Media Briefing should be videotaped. The tape is for Company records and for viewing in the media work area by media representatives who did not attend the Media Briefing.

Preparation

"* The following ENC staff should normally meet to prepare for each Media Briefing:

ENC Manager Company Spokesperson Health Physics Spokesperson Lead Technical Advisor Other Technical Advisors when needed.

AIX Coordinator
