ATTACHMENT 1 PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT SITE EMERGENCY PLAN REVISION 23 ANALYSIS
SUMMARY
The Palisades Nuclear Plant Site Emergency Plan (SEP) was revised under 10 CFR 50.54(q), to Revision 23, on January 7, 2013. Pursuant to 10 CFR 50.4(b)(5)(ii) and 10 CFR 50.54(q)(5), a summary of the 10 CFR 50.54(q) analysis is being submitted.
Description of SEP Revision 23 Changes The specific changes to the SEP are as follows:
- 1.
The Reference Documents Section and Figure 5-2 were revised to include a reference to the On-Shift Staffing Analysis, which was completed in December 2012, and conducted in accordance with NEI 10-05 and required by 10 CFR 50 Appendix E, Section IV.A.
- 2.
Figure 5-2 was revised to include the addition of three on-shift staff members to support the Major Functional Area of Plant Operations and Assessment of Operational Aspects.
- 3.
Figure 5-2 was also revised to include the addition of one on-shift staff member to support the Major Functional Area of Notification/Communication. Additionally, dose assessment was added to the Chemistry Technician duties.
- 4.
Entergy fleet procedure EN-EP-306, "Drills and Exercises," was added to Reference Documents Section. It superseded the site Emergency Implementing Procedure (EIP), EI-15.1, "Drills and Exercises," that was cancelled. Appendix D was updated to indicate the cancellation of El-1 5.1.
- 5.
EIPs were removed from the paragraph in Section 8.3 that required review of the SEP and the EIPs in accordance with the On-Site Safety Review Committee (OSRC) procedure EN-OM-1 19. EN-OM-1 19 does not include this OSRC requirement for the EIPs.
- 6.
Appendix E was revised to reflect typical emergency kit equipment rather than a detailed description.
Description of How the Changes to the SEP Still Comply with the Regulation 10 CFR 50.47(b)(1) - Assignment of Responsibility/Organizational Control This revision changes Figure 5-2 of the SEP. The change to the Figure 5-2 does not result in a reduction in the required minimum on-shift staffing nor does it lessen any requirements to support emergency functions or tasks. Figure 5-2 continues to list the station minimum staff requirements and augmentation capabilities to respond to an emergency. The revision to Figure 5-2 will result in an increase in the number of Page 1 of 4
on-shift staff available to respond to the emergency.
10 CFR 50.47(b)(2) - Onsite Emergency Organization This revision changes Figure 5-2 of the SEP. The change to the Figure 5-2 does not result in a reduction in the required minimum on-shift staffing nor does it lessen any assigned emergency responder responsibilities. Figure 5-2 will continue to list the station minimum staff requirements and emergency responder responsibilities. The revision to Figure 5-2 will result in an increase in the number of on-shift staff.
10 CFR 50.47(b)(8) - Emergency Facilities and Equipment This revision changes Appendix E of the SEP to eliminate unnecessary detail. This Appendix is intended to indicate the typical equipment maintained to support emergency response rather a detailed description of the equipment. The detailed description of the equipment is included in the EIPs. Palisades continues to maintain an adequate supply of emergency equipment which is inventoried as required by the SEP. This revision maintains the written guidance for the maintenance of emergency equipment and supplies.
10 CFR 50.47(b)(14) - Drill and Exercise Program This revision adds a reference to Entergy fleet procedure EN-EP-306 in the Reference Documents Section and cancels plant procedure EI-15.1 in Appendix D, which was superseded. This is being done to reflect the implementation of the fleet procedure for drills and exercises that establishes a standard program within the Entergy fleet. The drill and exercise program requirements have not been reduced due to this change and this revision maintains the written guidance for drills and exercises.
10 CFR 50.47(b)(16) - Emergency Plan Maintenance This revision, in Section 8.3, deletes the requirement for EIPs to be approved by the OSRC. EIP changes are evaluated in accordance with the requirements of 1 OCFR50.54(q) and a review is also performed to determine if the change is required to be reviewed under 10 CFR 50.59 or 10 CFR 72.48. Most EIPs are bounded by the 10 CFR 50.54(q) requirements and screened out in the 10 CFR 50.59 or 10 CFR 72.48 review. Therefore, further review by OSRC is not typically required. However, should an EIP screen in and a 10 CFR 50.59 or 10 CFR 72.48 evaluation be required, the Entergy OSRC procedure would require an OSRC review. This revision maintains the written guidance for emergency plan maintenance.
Description of Why the Chancqes Were Not a Reduction in the Effectiveness of the SEP
- 1.
SEP Figure 5-2 was revised to include the addition of three on-shift staff members to support the Major Functional Area of Plant Operations and Assessment of Operational Aspects.
Page 2 of 4
The change does not affect planning standard 10 CFR 50.47(b)(1).
Responsibility for emergency response is assigned or 10 CFR 50.47(b)(2). The process ensures that on-shift emergency responder positions are staffed and assigned.
- 2.
The revision to SEP Figure 5-2 adds an additional three on-shift staff to support the Major Functional Area of Plant Operations and Assessment of Operational Aspects. This revision implements the On-shift ERO Staffing Analysis conducted in accordance with NEI 10-05 and required by 10 CFR 50 Appendix E, Section IV.A. The revision to Figure 5-2 results in an overall increase in the number of on-shift staff available to respond to the emergency and comply with the requirements of 10 CFR 50 Appendix E, IV.A.
Changes to the SEP continue to meet the planning standards outlined in 10 CFR 50.47(b)(1 and 2). The SEP effectiveness is not reduced because the changes enhance the emergency response capabilities by increasing the minimum on-shift staffing levels.
- 3.
SEP Figure 5-2 was also revised to include the addition of one on-shift staff member to support the Major Functional Area of Notification/Communication.
The change does not affect the planning standard in 10 CFR 50.47(b)(1), or the defined responsibility standard for emergency response in 10 CFR 50.47(b)(2).
The process ensures that on-shift emergency responder positions are staffed and assigned.
The revision to Figure 5-2 of the SEP adds one additional on-shift staff to support the Major Functional Area of Notification/Communication. This revision implements the On-shift ERO Staffing Analysis conducted in accordance with NEI 10-05 and required by 10 CFR 50 Appendix E, Section IV.A. The revision to Figure 5-2 results in an overall increase in the number of on-shift staff available to respond to the emergency and comply with the requirements of 10 CFR 50 Appendix E, IV.A.
The changes to the SEP continue to meet the planning standards outlined in 10 CFR 50.47(b)(1 and 2). The effectiveness of the SEP is not reduced because this revision enhances the emergency response capabilities by eliminating some collateral duties from the Shift Manager.
- 4.
Procedure EN-EP-306, "Drills and Exercises," was added to the Reference Documents Section, and superseded implementing procedure El-1 5.1, "Drills and Exercises," was identified as cancelled in Appendix D of the SEP. Fleet procedure EN-EP-306 replaced the site implementing procedure El-15.1.
The change does not affect planning standard 10 CFR 50.47(b)(14). A drill and exercise program (including radiological, medical, health physics, and other program areas) remains in place with procedure EN-EP-306.
Page 3 of 4
The SEP continues to meet the planning standards of 10 CFR 50.47(b)(4). This revision does not represent a reduction in the effectiveness of the emergency plan because it enhances the emergency planning program by implementing a fleet standard methodology for conducting emergency drills and exercises
- 5.
The OSRC requirement for review of the EIPs has been deleted in Section 8.3.
The change does not affect planning standard 10 CFR 50.47(b)(16).
Responsibility for SEP development and review is established.
Changes to EIPs are required to be reviewed in accordance with 10 CFR 50.54(q) to determine if the change can be implemented without prior NRC approval. OSRC members are not required to be trained or have a working knowledge of the 10 CFR 50.54(q) review process. EIPs are bounded by the 10 CFR 50.54(q) process and do not require reviews under 10 CFR 50.59 or 10 CFR 72.48. Additionally, the administrative procedure requirements for the OSRC do not require review of the implementing procedures unless the change requires evaluation under 10 CFR 50.59 or 10 CFR 72.48. If the results of the review indicate a 50.59 or 72.48 evaluation is required, then the change will be required to be reviewed by the OSRC. As a result, requiring all EIPs to be reviewed and approved by the OSRC is an unnecessary requirement.
Eliminating the OSRC approval is an enhancement to the SEP implementing procedure review process.
The SEP continues to meet the requirements of the planning standard 10 CFR 50.47(b)(16). This revision does not represent a reduction in the effectiveness of the emergency plan because it enhances the approval process for EIP changes.
- 6.
Appendix E has been revised to reflect typical emergency kit equipment rather than a detailed description.
The change does not affect planning standard 10 CFR 50.47(b)(8). Adequate equipment is maintained to support emergency response.
The intent of Appendix E is to provide a general listing of the type of emergency equipment available for use in an emergency with the specific inventory information being contained in the implementing procedures. This revision deletes the detailed descriptions of the emergency equipment. Appendix E continues to refer to the EIPs for specific equipment inventories and locations.
This revision maintains the intent of the planning standard and enhances the ability to change equipment inventories in the EIPs without having to make corresponding changes the SEP.
The SEP continues to meet the requirements of planning standard 10 CFR 50.47(b)(8). This revision does not represent a reduction in the effectiveness of the emergency plan because it enhances and continues to maintain the written guidance in the implementing procedures.

1.0 INTRODUCTION
The purpose of the Palisades Site Emergency Plan (SEP) is to aid in protecting members of the general public, persons temporarily visiting the site, and site employees.
Information submitted in this plan was developed using the guidance provided in NUREG-0654, Revision 1, "Criteria for Preparation and Evaluation of Radiological Emergency Response Plans and Procedures in Support of Nuclear Power Plants,"
published in November 1980 and with Regulatory Guide 1.70, Revision 2, "Standard Format and Content of Safety Analysis Reports for Nuclear Power Plants," dated September 1975.
Detailed procedures concerning the implementation of the Site Emergency Plan are not included here, but are included in the Palisades Nuclear Plant Emergency Implementing Procedures. These procedures describe the duties and actions of individuals and groups in the event of an emergency and also serve as an interface of the Site Emergency Plan with Plant operations, security, and radiological controls procedures. Selected elements of the Quality Program are applied to the Site Emergency Planning Function for the Palisades Plant.
1.1 DEFINITIONS 1.1.1 Accident Any unexpected or unintentional event resulting in radiological exposure, contamination, or physical injury to individuals requiring offsite medical treatment, and/or physical damage to safety-related components.

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT SEP SITE EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 23 Page 4 of 99 TITLE: SITE EMERGENCY PLAN 1.1.17 Emergency Planning Zones (EPZ)
Two zones that encircle the Palisades Plant. The primary EPZ plume exposure pathway, with a radius of 10 miles, has been established to prevent excessive airborne exposure, and the secondary EPZ, ingestion exposure pathway, with a radius of 50 miles, has been established to prevent excessive ingestion of contaminated food. Within these two zones, protective actions are described for the protection of the public.
1.1.18 Fitness For Duty Provide reasonable assurance that personnel who maintain unescorted access will perform their tasks in a reliable and trustworthy manner and are not under the influence of any substance, legal or illegal, or mentally or physically impaired from any cause, which in any way adversely affects their ability to safely and competently perform their duties.
1.1.19 Fully Operational Status of an Emergency Response Facility following assumption of all responsibilities.
1.1.20 General Emergency Events are in process or have occurred which involve actual or imminent substantial core degradation or melting with potential for loss of containment integrity or HOSTILE ACTION that results in an actual loss of physical control of the facility.
Releases can be reasonably expected to exceed EPA Protective Action Guideline exposure levels offsite for more than the immediate site area.
1.1.21 Hostile Action An act toward an NPP or its personnel that includes the use of violent force to destroy equipment, takes hostages, and /or intimidates the licensee to achieve an end. This includes attack by air, land, or water using guns, explosives, projectiles, vehicles, or other devices used to deliver destructive force. Other acts that satisfy the overall intent may be included. HOSTILE ACTION should not be construed to include acts of civil disobedience or felonious acts that are not part of a concerted attack on the NPP. Nonterrorism-based EALs should be used to address such activities (eg, violent acts between individuals in the owner controlled area).
PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT SEP SITE EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 23 Page 5 of 99 TITLE: SITE EMERGENCY PLAN 1.1.22 Hostile Force One or more individuals who are engaged in a determined assault, overtly or by stealth and deception, equipped with suitable weapons capable of killing, maiming, or causing destruction.

No releases of radioactive material requiring offsite response or monitoring are expected unless further degradation of safety systems occurs.
2.0 SCOPE AND APPLICABILITY 2.1 GENERAL INFORMATION AND SITE DESCRIPTION The Palisades Nuclear Power Plant is owned by Entergy Corporation. An area map showing the location of the facility is provided in Figure 2-1.
The design of the Palisades Nuclear Plant is that of a pressurized water-type nuclear steam supply system supplied and manufactured by Combustion Engineering. The system uses chemical shim and control rods for reactivity control and U-tube steam generators. Maps identifying Palisades Plant facilities are provided in Figures 2-2 and 2-3.
The Palisades Plant is located in Covert Township, Van Buren County, Michigan.
The Plant is bordered to the north by the Van Buren State Park and to the west by Lake Michigan. The south and east are sparsely populated, underdeveloped, or used for farming. Interstate 1-96 and the Blue Star Highway lie within one mile east of the site. Much of the area around the site is devoted to recreation and tourism, which produces a fluctuating and seasonal population. Most of the year, a population of 40 resides within 1 mile of the site and 6,300 within 5 miles.
Highway access to the Plant is provided from the Blue Star Highway (A-2) via the Plant access road.
2.2 POPULATION DISTRIBUTION AND EVACUATION TIMES The area within a 10-mile radius surrounding the Palisades Plant is designated as the plume exposure Emergency Planning Zone (EPZ). A comprehensive population study was conducted December 19, 2003 for the primary EPZ by TOM COD Data Systems, as part of an Evacuation Time Study that TOM COD Data was conducting.
The Population Distribution and Evacuation Time estimates for the plume EPZ are discussed in Appendix C. The 2003 update of this study has been included.
PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT SEP SITE EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 23 Page 9 of 99 TITLE: SITE EMERGENCY PLAN 2.3 EMERGENCY PLANNING ZONES EPZs are areas designated for which planning is recommended to assure that prompt and effective actions are taken to protect the public in the event of an accident.
Two EPZs have been identified for the purpose of development and implementation of emergency planning. The plume exposure emergency planning zone has a 10 mile radius. Within this zone, shelter and/or evacuation is the immediate protective action to be recommended for the general public. The principal concern with the plume exposure pathway is that of Total Effective Dose Equivalent (TEDE) exposure and/or exposure to the adult thyroid Committed Dose Equivalent (CDE) due to inhalation and ingestion.
The ingestion exposure EPZ extends to a 50-mile radius. Once exceeding the 10-mile radius, the plume exposure pathway is no longer of significant concern.
At this point, the ingestion pathway is of greatest concern.
2.4 PURPOSES AND OBJECTIVES Effective emergency preparedness needs to incorporate not only the emergency response for systems, but must also include response for people. Engineering safety systems at the Plant are designed to ensure that the consequences of a major malfunction will be mitigated prior to any adverse effect to the general public or facility. The basis for emergency planning is to provide human emergency response in much the same way as safety systems do for design.
It is imperative that all plans, programs, and procedures be well coordinated with the Emergency Plan. Only when they are well coordinated can the response to emergencies be initiated in a timely and effective manner.

SUMMARY
OF EMERGENCY PLAN INTERRELATIONSHIPS This Emergency Plan should not, in itself, be considered the sole working document to be used during an emergency. The purpose of the Emergency Plan is to classify emergencies according to their severity, to assign responsibilities for actions, and to clearly outline the most effective course of action required to safeguard the public and Plant personnel in the event of an emergency. Detailed instructions and guidelines for emergency actions are included in other plans, programs, and procedures as described below.
2.5.1 Site Emergency Plan Supplement 1 The "Site Emergency Plan Supplement 1 - EAL Wall Charts" contains the Palisades Emergency Action Levels in a wall chart format. It is part of the Site Emergency Plan. Changes to the supplement require all the same types of reviews and approvals as required for the Site Emergency Plan. Revisions to the supplement will be tracked by its own revision number, not the SEP's revision number.
The "Site Emergency Plan Supplement 1 - EAL Wall Charts" will be maintained in the same binder as the Site Emergency Plan.
PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT SEP SITE EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 23 Page 12 of 99 TITLE: SITE EMERGENCY PLAN 2.5.2 Emergency Implementing Procedures Detailed Emergency Implementing Procedures required to implement the plan have been developed. An index of the Emergency Implementing Procedures is included in Appendix D.
Detailed implementing procedures for emergencies considered to be special events, such as civil disturbances, bomb threats, and breaches in security are included as part of the Safeguards Contingency Procedures.
Separate emergency procedures are not provided for activities already covered by Plant or section Operating Procedures (ie, calibration of survey instruments). The plan relies on certain aspects of the Plant's operating procedures, radiation protection procedures, and security procedures, where they are required for clarification.
2.5.3 Related Plans, Programs, and Procedures Several plans, programs, and procedures have been developed to assure the safe operation of the Plant. The Site Emergency Plan and Emergency Implementing Procedures have been written to coordinate these plans with other programs and procedures. During emergency situations, the coordination and utilization of all plans and procedures are essential.
The Safeguards Contingency Procedures have been coordinated with the Site Emergency Plan and Emergency Implementing Procedures to minimize the consequences of an emergency situation. Security procedures contain an explanation of the duties and responsibilities for security personnel in the event of an emergency.
Provisions for radiological control at the Plant have been covered in Radiation Protection Procedures. These procedures establish controls and protective measures to be placed on work being conducted in radiation areas. Inclusive within the area of radiation control are the procedures that Radiation Protection establishes for determining exposure through surveys, analysis, and various other avenues.
The Palisades Emergency Operating Procedures have been developed to control Plant operation during emergency situations. These emergency procedures work in conjunction with the Emergency Plan Implementing Procedures.
PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT SITE EMERGENCY PLAN SEP Revision 23 Page 13 of 99 TITLE: SITE EMERGENCY PLAN The Palisades Nuclear Plant Public Information Policies and Procedures contain the information necessary to establish a flow of emergency information to the public.
The Palisades Fire Protection Plan has been developed to assure the safe operation of the Plant during a fire.

SUMMARY
The Emergency Plan establishes the basic steps that will be used to determine the response of the emergency organization for each of four emergency classes. The emergency classes are as follows: Unusual Event, Alert, Site Area Emergency, and General Emergency. The conditions that must exist for the declaration of a specific emergency class are presented in Emergency Implementing Procedure EI-I, "Emergency Classification and Actions."
The declaration of each class will lead to specific notification of offsite authorities.
Emergency facilities shall be activated as described in Table 3-1, "Emergency Classifications and the Level of Response by Participating Groups," and staffed as presented in Section 5 of the Palisades Site Emergency Plan. In response to a particular event, certain protective actions may be initiated or certain offsite agencies may be activated. These actions are detailed in Section 6 of the Palisades Site Emergency Plan.
For emergencies that result in (1) the release of radioactive materials greater than specified levels, or (2) the degradation of barriers to the release of radioactive materials, assessments of the offsite consequences or the projected offsite consequences shall be made. These assessments will be transmitted to the offsite authorities responsible for taking protective actions on behalf of the general public.
Recommendations to these offsite authorities will be based on the protective actions identified in Table 6-2 from the Palisades Site Emergency Plan.
3.1 EMERGENCY PLAN STEPS In general, the Emergency Plan encompasses the following basic steps:

Detection of the emergency
- b.
Classification of the emergency
- c.
Notification of offsite agencies
- d.
Activation of the responding organization(s)
- e.
Assessment of the situation
- f.
Initiation of protective actions

- i.
Reentry and recovery
PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT SEP SITE EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 23 Page 18 of 99 TITLE: SITE EMERGENCY PLAN 3.2 ENTERGY CORPORATION EMERGENCY ORGANIZATION This Emergency Plan establishes an organization capable of responding to the complete spectrum of incidents covered by this Emergency Plan. Provisions are made for rapid notification of appropriate portions of the response organization, and for expanding the response organization if the situation dictates.
An individual having the authority and responsibility to initiate any emergency actions within the provisions of this Emergency Plan, including the exchange of information with authorities responsible for coordinating offsite emergency measures, is onsite at all times. This individual is the Shift Manager until relieved by the Emergency Director.
The operating shift crew is responsible for implementing emergency action(s) in accordance with assigned response functions. Emergency response functions are also assigned to additional Plant staff personnel who are rapidly alerted and mobilized to augment or relieve the operating shift personnel of emergency duties as deemed appropriate by the Emergency Plant Manager, and in accordance with the implementing procedures of this Plan.
In addition, this Plan includes offsite agencies and organizations who have signed letters of agreement with Palisades Nuclear Power Plant (see Appendix A). Their designated response functions include implementation of offsite protective actions, transportation and treatment of personnel requiring medical treatment, control of access to the station, fire-fighting support, radiological sampling and assessment, technical consultation, and testing.
3.3 EMERGENCY CLASSIFICATIONS Emergencies are grouped into four classifications listed below in order of severity:
- a.
Unusual Event Events are in process or have occurred which indicate a potential degradation of the level of safety of the plant or indicate a security threat to facility protection has been initiated. No releases of radioactive material requiring offsite response or monitoring are expected unless further degradation of safety systems occurs.
PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT SEP SITE EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 23 Page 19 of 99 TITLE: SITE EMERGENCY PLAN
- b.
Alert Events are in process or have occurred which involve an actual or potential substantial degradation of the level of safety of the plant or a security event that involves probable life threatening risk to site personnel or damage to site equipment because of HOSTILE ACTION. Any releases are expected to be limited to small fractions of the EPA Protective Action Guideline exposure levels.
- c.
Site Area Emergency Events are in process or have occurred which involve an actual or likely major failures of plant functions needed for protection of the public or HOSTILE ACTION that results in intentional damage or malicious acts; (1) toward site personnel or equipment that could lead to the likely failure of or; (2) that prevent effective access to equipment needed for the protection of the public.
Any releases are not expected to result in exposure levels which exceed EPA Protective Action Guideline exposure levels beyond the site boundary.
- d.
General Emergency Events are in process or have occurred which involve actual or imminent substantial core degradation or melting with potential for loss of containment integrity or HOSTILE ACTION that results in an actual loss of physical control of the facility. Releases can be reasonably expected to exceed EPA Protective Action Guideline exposure levels offsite for more than the immediate site area.
Section 4 from the Palisades Nuclear Plant Site Emergency Plan contains a more detailed discussion of the classifications of emergencies. Table 3-1, "Emergency Classifications and the Level of Response by Participating Groups," shows, in column form, the emergency classifications, and the degrees of involvement of onsite and offsite organizations.
PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT SEP SITE EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 23 Page 20 of 99 TITLE: SITE EMERGENCY PLAN 3.4 EMERGENCY ACTIONS In all instances, when one of the classifications of the above emergencies occurs in the Plant, the Shift Manager is responsible for taking immediate action to safeguard personnel and equipment. Utilizing the Palisades Nuclear Plant Emergency Implementing Procedures, the Shift Manager shall activate the necessary portions of the Site Emergency Plan. The basic considerations for safe operation of the Plant, and for action in the event of an emergency in the Plant, are summarized as follows:
- a.
In any event, protection of Plant personnel and the public is the highest priority. Plant system and equipment protection is secondary.
- b.
When there is doubt as to the classification of the emergency condition, the more conservative case is considered.
- c.
The instrumentation is assumed to be providing correct information unless it is clearly identified that an instrument is erroneous or out of service.
- d.
All alarms are promptly acknowledged, any required response action is taken, and an immediate investigation of the cause that initiated the alarm is made.

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT SEP SITE EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 23 Page 22 of 99 TITLE: SITE EMERGENCY PLAN 4.0 EMERGENCY CONDITIONS 4.1 EMERGENCY CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM This Site Emergency Plan provides four mutually exclusive classifications covering the postulated spectrum of emergency situations. For each classification, a particular set of immediate actions to be taken is established as described in Section 6, of the Site Emergency Plan. Actions for each of the four mutually exclusive classifications are defined in Emergency Implementing Procedure El-I, "Emergency Classification and Actions," Attachment 1, "Emergency Actions."
The various classifications of accidents represent a hierarchy of accidents based on potential or actual hazards presented to the general public. Accidents may be classified in a lower category at first and then escalated to another higher classification if the situation deteriorates. Accident classification may be downgraded as conditions improve. The four classes that comprise the Emergency Classification System are:
- a.
Unusual Event
- b.
Alert
- c.
Site Area Emergency
- d.
General Emergency All emergency measures begin with the notification of the Shift Manager that a situation exists which presents a real or potential hazard. This is followed by assessment and evaluation by the Shift Manager, classification of the emergency, notifications, and activation and/or mobilization of the applicable emergency organizations. Section 6 summarizes the emergency measures to be taken by both the onsite and offsite emergency organizations.
Emergency Action Levels (EALs) are used to describe each of the four emergency classes. These levels are composed of a combination of Plant parameters (such as instrument readings and system status) that can be used to give relatively quick indication to the Plant operating staff of the severity of the accident situation.
PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT SEP SITE EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 23 Page 23 of 99 TITLE: SITE EMERGENCY PLAN The purpose of the EAL is to provide the earliest possible identification of actual or potential accident situations. In most cases, further assessment action will be conducted both onsite and offsite before actual protective actions are initiated.
EALs associated with radioactive releases are related to the Environmental Protection Agency's Protective Actions Guides (PAG) summarized in EPA 400-R-92-001, "Manual of Protective Action Guides and Protective Actions for Nuclear Incidents." An assessment by the Plant emergency organization along with state support agencies of the potential of reaching or exceeding the PAG will be performed following the declaration of an emergency class.
When EALs are observed in conjunction with Plant or equipment status due to planned maintenance or testing activities, an emergency condition does not exist.
A conservative philosophy for classification shall be used to declare the highest classification for which an EAL has been exceeded. For example, a Site Area Emergency would be declared directly if a Site Area Emergency level is exceeded without having previously been declared in a lower Alert classification.
The Emergency Action Levels are not necessarily all inclusive. The Shift Manager/EOF Emergency Director shall declare an appropriate emergency classification whenever, in their personal judgment, the Plant status warrants such a declaration.
Palisades Emergency Action Levels can be found in the "Site Emergency Plan Supplement 1 - EAL Wall Charts."
4.1.1 Unusual Event The Unusual Event is the least severe of the four emergency classifications. For the purposes of this plan, an Unusual Event is defined as that situation where, "Events are in process or have occurred which indicate a potential degradation of the level of safety of the plant or indicate a security threat to facility protection has been initiated.
No releases of radioactive material requiring offsite response or monitoring are expected unless further degradation of safety systems occurs."
The purpose of the Unusual Event declaration is to:
- a.
Assure that the first step in any response later found to be necessary has been carried out.
- b.
Bring the Plant operations staff to a state of readiness.
PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT SEP SITE EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 23 Page 24 of 99 TITLE: SITE EMERGENCY PLAN
- c.
Provide systematic handling of Unusual Events information and decision-making.
Guidelines for Plant, State, and local actions are listed in Table 4-1. An incident shall be classified as an Unusual Event if the event is minor in nature, involves no releases of radioactive material requiring offsite response or monitoring, and presents no immediate hazard to the public. Events in this classification are selected based upon a potential to degenerate to a more severe situation rather than an actual public hazard.
4.1.2 Alert An Alert is defined as that situation where, "Events are in process or have occurred which involve an actual or potential substantial degradation of the level of safety of the plant or a security event that involves probable life threatening risk to site personnel or damage to site equipment because of HOSTILE ACTION. Any releases are expected to be limited to small fractions of the EPA Protective Action Guideline exposure levels." The Alert class involves relatively minor emergency situations that have a direct effect on the Plant safety-related systems. The Alert shall set into motion personnel onsite and offsite who would be required to perform actions up to and including the evacuation of near-site areas. The Alert class also addresses limited releases of radioactive material and, therefore, might require some assessment actions by the emergency organizations.
The purpose of the Alert declaration is to:
- a.
Assure that emergency personnel are readily available to respond if the situation becomes more serious or to perform confirmatory radiation monitoring if required.
- b.
Provide offsite authorities current status information.
Guidelines for Plant, State, and local actions are listed in Table 4-1. An incident shall be classified as an Alert if there is real or potential limited releases of radioactive material to the environment. A situation shall be classified at the Alert level only if EALs for higher classification have not been exceeded or are not expected to be exceeded in the near term.
PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT SEP SITE EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 23 Page 25 of 99 TITLE: SITE EMERGENCY PLAN 4.1.3 Site Area Emergency A Site Area Emergency is defined as that situation where, "Events are in process or have occurred which involve an actual or likely major failures of plant functions needed for protection of the public or HOSTILE ACTION that results in intentional damage or malicious acts; (1) toward site personnel or equipment that could lead to the likely failure of or; (2) that prevent effective access to equipment needed for the protection of the public. Any releases are not expected to result in exposure levels which exceed EPA Protective Action Guideline exposure levels beyond the site boundary.
The purpose of the Site Area Emergency declaration is to:
- a.
Assure that emergency response facilities are manned.
- b.
Assure that radiation-monitoring teams are dispatched both onsite and offsite.
- c.
Assure that personnel required for evacuation of near-site areas are at their duty stations if the situation becomes more serious.
- d.
Provide consultation with offsite authorities.
- e.
Provide updates for the public through offsite authorities.
Guidelines for Plant, State, and local actions are listed in Table 4-1. Although immediate protective actions are not automatically required, declaration of a Site Area Emergency shall set into motion all personnel onsite and offsite who would be required to perform actions up to and including the evacuation of near-site areas.
Dispatched radiation monitoring teams will make continuing assessments to provide officials with information to decide protective actions. The Site Area Emergency classification includes accidents that have significant radiation release potential.
Unlike the Unusual Event and Alert classifications of emergencies, the Site Area Emergency classification may involve some radiation exposure to the near-site public. Many of the accidents included in this classification have the potential for degradation to the General Emergency classification. Although the EALs for this classification have been selected at values well below the EPA PAGs, offsite monitoring team reports and continuing assessment actions shall lead to any final decision on protective actions to be taken.
Accidents that have significant potential for the release of radioactive material shall be classified as a Site Area Emergency.
PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT SEP SITE EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 23 Page 26 of 99 TITLE: SITE EMERGENCY PLAN 4.1.4 General Emergency The General Emergency is the most severe classification of emergency. The General Emergency classification is defined as that situation where, "Events are in process or have occurred which involve actual or imminent substantial core degradation or melting with potential for loss of containment integrity or HOSTILE ACTION that results in an actual loss of physical control of the facility. Releases can be reasonably expected to exceed EPA Protective Action Guideline exposure levels offsite for more than the immediate site area."
The purpose of the General Emergency declaration is to:
- a.
Initiate predetermined protective actions for the public.
- b.
Provide continuous assessment of information from Palisades Plant, and offsite monitoring groups.
- c.
Initiate additional measures as indicated by event releases or potential releases.
- d.
Provide consultation with offsite authorities.
- e.
Provide updates for the public through offsite authorities.
Guidelines for Plant, State, and local actions are listed in Table 4-1. Some protective actions may be recommended upon declaration of the General Emergency since the lower limits of the EPA PAGs are likely to be exceeded.
Emergency Action Levels (EAL) have been selected so that time should be available to make some confirmatory measurements in the field prior to implementation of the more extensive (ie, evacuation) protective action. Some of the General Emergency action levels require a dose projection calculation using actual meteorology. This differs from the adverse meteorology assumptions used in the Site Emergency action levels in order to remove this built-in conservatism and to preclude declaring a General Emergency when actual conditions do not warrant the higher classification.
Declaration of a General Emergency requires a recommendation to the State for protective actions for the local population.
4.2 CLASSIFICATION OF POSTULATED ACCIDENTS The events postulated in Section 14, Palisades Plant Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR), may be categorized into one or more of the four emergency classifications. A complete discussion of these events may be found in the FSAR.

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT SEP SITE EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 23 Page 33 of 99 TITLE: SITE EMERGENCY PLAN 5.0 ORGANIZATIONAL CONTROL OF EMERGENCIES Emergency planning must consider the capabilities of the normally present operating staff, augmented by support from other utility personnel and local and distant support. The initial phases of an emergency situation at an operating nuclear power plant will involve a relatively small number of individuals. These individuals must be capable of: (1) determining that an emergency exists, (2) providing initial classification and assessment, and (3) promptly notifying other groups and individuals in the emergency organization.
The Palisades Plant Organization has complete capability, at all times, to perform the detection, classification, and notification functions required in the early phases of an emergency. These capabilities are augmented, as required, by the Palisades Emergency Response Organization (ERO).
This section of the Site Emergency Plan addresses the assignment of personnel and the establishment of responsibilities and authority for the:
- a.
Palisades Plant Organization
- b.

6.2 ASSESSMENT
ACTIONS Effective coordination and direction of all portions of the emergency organization require almost continuous accident assessment during the course of the emergency.
Each emergency class will require similar accident assessment methods; however, each classification imposes a different magnitude of assessment effort. In the following steps, the assessment actions to be taken for each emergency classification are outlined.
6.2.1 Assessment Actions for Unusual Events The detection of an Unusual Event shall arise from exceeding a specific Emergency Action Level for this class. Detection of the event will come as a result of alarms, instrument readings, recognition through experience, or any combination thereof.
The continuing assessment actions to be performed for this classification of emergency shall be in accordance with the Emergency Implementing Procedures and shall consist of the normal monitoring of Control Room and other Plant instrumentation and status indication until the situation is resolved. If a fire is the reason for the declaration of an Unusual Event, the Shift Manager will make continuing assessments based on his knowledge and experience on whether offsite fire fighting assistance is needed.
6.2.2 Assessment Actions for Alerts When an accident has been classified as an Alert by the Shift Manager, assessment actions shall be performed in accordance with the Emergency Implementing Procedures for an Alert.
These actions include:
- a.
Accountability of onsite personnel.
- b.
Staff augmentation, as needed.
- c.
Increased surveillance of in-plant instrumentation.
PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT SEP SITE EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 23 Page 59 of 99 TITLE: SITE EMERGENCY PLAN
- d.
Activation of appropriate emergency facilities.
- e.
Dispatch of shift personnel, if possible, to the identified problem area for confirmation and visual assessment.
- f.
Dispatch of onsite Radiation Monitoring Teams to monitor for possible release and to provide confirmation of correct accident classification.
- g.
If a radiological accident is occurring, surveillance of the in-plant instrumentation is necessary to obtain meteorological and radiological data required for calculating or estimating projected doses. This dose assessment activity shall continue until termination of the emergency in order that the updating of initial assessments may be provided to all concerned offsite agencies, the Shift Manager, and EOF Emergency Director. Emergency Implementing Procedures are provided to aid in a rapid, consistent projection of doses.
6.2.3 Assessment Actions for Site Area Emergencies The assessment actions for the Site Area Emergency classification are similar to the actions for an Alert; however, due to the increased magnitude of the possible release of radioactive material, a significantly larger assessment will occur. The necessary personnel for this assessment effort shall be provided by mobilization of the onsite and offsite emergency organizations.
Specifically:
- a.
An increased amount of Plant instrumentation shall be monitored, in particular, indications of core status (eg, in-core thermocouple readings, etc) shall be monitored.
- b.
Radiological monitoring efforts shall be increased. Onsite and offsite radiological monitoring teams will be dispatched. In addition to beta-gamma field measurements, change out of environmental thermoluminescent dosimeters (TLD), air sampling, and collection of the environmental media for assessment of radioactive material transport and deposition may also be performed.
PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT SEP SITE EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 23 Page 60 of 99 TITLE: SITE EMERGENCY PLAN
- c.
Dose assessment activities will be conducted more frequently with an increased emphasis on dose projections for use as a factor in determining the necessity for protective actions for the public. Radiological (eg, TLDs) and meteorological instrumentation readings shall be used to project the dose rate at predetermined distances from the Plant, and to determine the integrated dose received. In reporting the dose projections to offsite agencies, the dose rate, dose, and the basis for the time used for the dose estimate shall always be provided. Any confirmation of dose rates by offsite Radiation Monitoring Teams shall be reflected in reporting and/or revising the dose estimate information provided to offsite agencies.
Dose projections shall be considered with respect to the Environmental Protection Agency Protective Action Guides (Table 6-1). Reporting of assessments to offsite authorities shall include the relationship of the dose to these guidelines. Emergency Implementing Procedures will be provided for recording all pertinent information.
6.2.4 Assessment Actions for General Emergencies Assessment actions for the General Emergency classification shall be the same as for the Site Area Emergency with some possible shift of emphasis to greater offsite radiation monitoring and dose projections extending to distances farther from the site.
6.2.5 Estimation of Offsite Dose The Emergency Implementing Procedures (reference Emergency Implementing Procedure EI-6, "Offsite Dose Calculation and Recommendations for Protective Actions") contain several methods for calculating offsite dose to population from accidental releases. These methods include:
- a.
Computer Method - Implements the above method using a personal computer to speed the process.
- b.
Manual Method - A pencil and paper method for calculating offsite dose using precalculated diffusion factors and a straight line Gaussian methodology.
- c.
Segmented Gaussian - Variable trajectory Plume model.
The above methods have been developed in cooperation with state agencies and provide methods for rapid, accurate dose estimates.
PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT SEP SITE EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 23 Page 61 of 99 TITLE: SITE EMERGENCY PLAN 6.2.6 Data Reporting, Recording, and Analysis Specially assigned personnel at all designated emergency centers have the responsibility for collecting, recording, and analyzing data transmitted to them.

Additional support is available from fire departments in nearby Allegan and Berrien Counties through mutual aid agreements. These fire departments are also trained and equipped for rescue work and control of hazardous gas leaks, including chlorine gas.
6.3.2 Repair and Damage Control The Palisades Plant staff is comprised of technically and vocationally trained personnel capable of improvising necessary repair and control measures for correction of an emergency situation. Wherever possible, corrective measures are anticipated and included in emergency and operating procedures.
6.3.3 System Control System design is aimed at automatic corrective actions, such as Plant shutdown and system isolation, whenever operating parameters become abnormal. Operating procedures are written for manual control of these same situations, should automatic features fail.
PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT SEP SITE EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 23 Page 63 of 99 TITLE: SITE EMERGENCY PLAN 6.4 PROTECTIVE ACTIONS Protective actions are emergency measures taken during or after an emergency situation that are intended to minimize or eliminate the hazard to the health and safety of the general public and/or Plant personnel. Such actions taken onsite are the responsibility of the Entergy Corporation, while those offsite actions are the responsibility of the State of Michigan and local political jurisdictions. Protective Action Guides for the Environmental Protection Agency and the State of Michigan are shown on Tables 6-1 and 6-2. All visitors to the site protected area shall be either escorted by an employee knowledgeable as to the Emergency Plan response actions or shall receive training on actions required by them during an emergency.
6.4.1 Sheltering, Evacuation, Personnel Accountability During an emergency, the relocation of personnel may be required in order to prevent or minimize exposure to radiation and radioactive materials. The following steps present information on policies applicable to such situations:
- a.
Plant Site
- 1.
Notification All persons onsite at the time of an Alert, Site Area, or General Emergency shall be notified of the emergency by a two-minute steady siren and an announcement over the public address system in the assembly areas.

Michigan Department of Environmental Quality representatives will be responsible for these actions and will be assisted by other Michigan State Departments and/or Entergy Corporation upon request.
PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT SEP SITE EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 23 Page 68 of 99 TITLE: SITE EMERGENCY PLAN 6.5 AID TO AFFECTED PERSONNEL 6.5.1 Emergency Personnel Exposure Criteria Although an emergency situation transcends the normal requirements for limiting exposure, there are suggested levels of exposure acceptable in emergencies. Even under these conditions, every reasonable effort to minimize exposure must be made and personnel must be provided with appropriate monitoring devices. Three categories of risk versus benefit must be considered:
- a.
Saving of human life and reduction of injury.
- b.
Protection of health and safety of the public.
- c.
Protection of property.
In order to avoid restricting actions that may be necessary to save lives, it shall be left to the judgment of the individual to determine the amount of exposure that he will accept to perform an emergency action that will result in the saving of human life.
Emergency team members are instructed in radiation effects and the risks involved for emergency doses. Basic guidelines provided to emergency team members are the EPA recommendations contained in Table 6-3. These exposures must be authorized by the Emergency Plant Manager (with the exception of life-saving efforts) based on the recommendation of the TSC Rad Coordinator.
The Radiation Protection Procedures shall be followed. In the event emergency exposure limits are approved, the same administrative methods for dose control shall be used with the higher emergency exposure limits.
Once the emergency condition has been mitigated, steps shall be taken to recover from the incident. All actions from this point shall be preplanned in order to limit exposures. Normal exposure limits will be used, areas will be controlled, and exposure of personnel documented.
PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT SEP SITE EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 23 Page 69 of 99 TITLE: SITE EMERGENCY PLAN 6.5.2 Decontamination and First Aid Onsite personnel decontamination facilities for emergency conditions are fully equipped with decontamination material. The decontamination facility at Palisades Plant is located at the access control area of the auxiliary building.

Designated emergency equipment and supplies and their storage locations will be listed in the Implementing Procedures. Equipment, supplies, and parts having shelf lives shall be checked and replaced as necessary. Operational readiness of emergency equipment and supplies can be assured by conducting surveillance testing, maintenance checks, calibration, or inventory of all supplies and conducting an annual review of the list of equipment important to Emergency Planning.
8.5 EMERGENCY EQUIPMENT NUCLEAR PERFORMANCE ASSESSMENT DEPARTMENT CONTROLS 8.5.1 Meteorological Monitoring Program The Emergency Preparedness Section controls for the Palisades Plant Meteorological Monitoring Program are defined in Palisades Administrative Procedure 1.14, "Meteorological Monitoring Program."
8.5.2 Dose Assessment Computer Programs The Dose Assessment Computer Programs are in accordance with Entergy Procedure EN-IT-1 03, "Cyber Security Program."
9.0 RECOVERY In any emergency, the immediate action is directed to limiting the consequences of the incident in a manner that will afford maximum protection of the Plant personnel and the public. Once the immediate corrective and protective actions have established an effective control over the incident situation, the emergency actions will shift into the recovery phase.
A recovery plan, from a practical standpoint, must be flexible enough to adapt to existing, rather than theoretical, conditions. It is not possible to anticipate in advance all of the conditions that may be encountered in an emergency situation; therefore, the Palisades Site Emergency Plan is addressed to general principles that will serve as a guide for developing a flexible plan of action.
PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT SEP SITE EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 23 Page 96 of 99 TITLE: SITE EMERGENCY PLAN In the period immediately following an incident, initial radiation monitoring functions will involve only gross hazard evaluations and isolation and definition of radiological problem areas. This immediate radiation surveillance activity is intended to provide the basic information for the second stage of reentry and recovery.
9.1 The following is a brief description of actions that will be examined as required prior to authorizing reentry by the emergency staff.
9.1.1 Review available radiation surveillance data. Determine Plant areas potentially affected by radiation and contamination.
9.1.2 Review radiation exposures of personnel to participate in recovery operations.
Determine need for additional personnel.
9.1.3 Review adequacy of radiation survey instrumentation and equipment (type, ranges, number, calibration, etc).
9.1.4 Preplan survey team activities:
- a.
Areas to be surveyed
- b.
Anticipated radiation and contamination levels
- c.
Radiation survey equipment required
- d.
Shielding requirements and availability
- e.
Protective clothing and equipment required
- f.
Access control procedures (issuance of RWP)
- g.
Exposure control limits and personnel dosimetry required
- h.
Decontamination requirements
- i.
Communications required
-9.2 The initial reentry into the Plant areas should encompass the following (in order of priority):
9.2.1 Determine initial recovery operations.
9.2.2 Identify hazards or potential hazards associated with the recovery operations.
PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT SEP SITE EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 23 Page 97 of 99 TITLE: SITE EMERGENCY PLAN 9.2.3 Conduct comprehensive radiation surveillance of Plant facilities and define radiological problem areas.
9.2.4 Isolate and post areas in the Plant with appropriate warning signs and rope barriers, as Radiation Areas, High Radiation Areas, and Contaminated Areas, as appropriate.
9.3 The nature and extent of the emergency situation will determine what recovery operations are required. The Recovery Organization described in Section 5 will be established as directed by the Recovery Manager.
9.3.1 In order for the recovery phase of the emergency to commence, the conditions which caused the incident must no longer exist. It is the responsibility of the EOF Emergency Director to determine that the facility and/or surroundings are safe.
9.3.2 The following criteria must be met before the recovery and reentry phase can begin:
- a.
The Plant is in a controlled and stable condition,
- b.
The release of radioactive materials to the environment is under control or has ceased.
- c.
In-plant radiation levels are stable or decreasing.
- d.
Fire, flood, etc, is under control or has ceased.
- e.
At least one level of redundancy in plant systems should be available to prevent reinitiation of the event.
- f.
Consensus has been reached among the SED, EOF Director, NRC, and the State.
9.4 The initial objectives of the recovery program are the determination of the damage to equipment, the installation of shielding, rope barriers and signs, the application of clearance tags, decontamination, and cleanup as required to place the Plant in an acceptable long-term condition. Other recovery operations will not be initiated until the area affected by the emergency has been defined. Particular attention will be directed toward isolating and tagging out components and systems as required to control or minimize hazards. A systematic investigation will be conducted to determine the equipment damaged and the extent of the damage.
PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT SEP SITE EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 23 Page 98 of 99 TITLE: SITE EMERGENCY PLAN 9.5 Once the initial objectives are completed, a detailed investigation of the accident causes and consequences both to the Plant and to the environment will be conducted. Determination will be made as to the equipment repair work required as well as the need to modify Plant operating procedures. Repair work and approved modifications shall be carried out as authorized. Test programs to confirm fitness for return to service will be developed and executed.
9.6 Recovery operations will be conducted in compliance with normal operational radiation exposure levels as specified in 10 CFR 20. When possible, any necessary releases of radiation during recovery will be planned, controlled, evaluated in advance for radiological impact, and appropriate offsite organizations and agencies informed of the scheduled releases and estimated impact.
9.7 The State EOC will be advised when the Plant deems it safe to begin the reentry phase of the offsite recovery operation. If the Governor has ordered an evacuation, it is legally required for the Governor to officially rescind the order. The Michigan Department of Environmental Quality is responsible for coordinating reentry procedures for the offsite population.

- YRBrunet, Sr Plant Emergency Planning Coordinator CONSUMERS POWER Date December 30, 1986 COMPANY Subject PALISADES PLANT-Internal BASIS FOR DELETION OF APPENDIX B Correspondence OF THE PALISADES SITE EMERGENCY PLAN CC DCC: 950/22*06*01/LP JRB86*078 The following basis for deleting Appendix B of the Palisades Site Emergency Plan was taken from the 12/17/86 memorandum by RAEnglish and DLFugere.
This document is filed in Document Control under A200/22*06*01/LP.
I A.
The plots of calculated time/distance/dose contained in Appendix B were generated during the development of evacuation time estimates.
They were placed in the Plan because it was thought that this information might be useful during an emergency.
The plots are no longer needed because this information can be more quickly obtained through the Companys' new automated dose assessment program maintained on the IBM PC's or the backup manual dose calculation procedures.
In addition, the plots are only applicable for Maximum Hypothetical Accident Conditions where as the automated program or manual procedures provide results which are applicable for any accident scenario.
B.
NUREG-0654, Criteria for Preparation and Evaluation of Radiological Emergency Response Plans & Preparedness in Support of Nuclear Power Plants, does not indicate that these plots have to be in the Plan.
C.
The plots are not referenced in the Plan nor are they used in the Emergency Implementing Procedures.
II A.
The curves of dose rate versus time since reactor shutdown, based on the containment isolation monitors RIA-1805 thru RIA-1808 contained in Appendix B are typical of working level material and as such should not be in the Plan.
NUREG-0654 does not require this type of material in the Plan.

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT APPENDIX C SITE EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 23 Page 1 of 32 POPULATION DISTRIBUTION AND EVACUATION TIME ESTIMATES
1.0 INTRODUCTION
This report summarizes updates to Evacuation Time Estimates (ETEs) for the Palisades Nuclear Power Plant (PNPP). The purpose of the ETEs is to analyze how the population within the Emergency Planning Zone (EPZ) around the nuclear power plant would evacuate during a radiological emergency.
Estimates of the time required to evacuate from areas around nuclear power plant sites are required for all operating plants in the United States.
The Federal government has prepared guidance for the preparation and format of these evacuation time estimates. Most notable are the guidance documents prepared by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NUREG-0654, Rev.1 1 and NUREG/CR 48312).
1.1 Emergency Planning Zone Description The Palisades Nuclear Power Plant is located in Van Buren County, Michigan approximately five miles south of the city of South Haven, Michigan. The Emergency Planning Zone (EPZ) encompasses an approximate ten-mile radius around the PNPP including the town of South Haven and portions of Van Buren, Allegan and Berrien Counties.
1.2 Sources of Data The following data sources were reviewed in order to develop the appropriate input required for the computer simulation model used for the evacuation analysis:
- 1.
Nuclear Management Corporation (NMC) provided a copy of the previous evacuation time estimate study and maps of the EPZ.
Additional information including listings of major employers, schools, daycares, nursing and group homes, and recreation areas was providing by emergency planning official from Van Buren, Allegan, and Berrien Counties and from representatives of the Emergency Management Division of the Michigan State Police.
- 2.
U.S. Census (2000) data was used to estimate the permanent population residing in the EPZ and to estimate the average household size (persons/household). This data was obtained from the U.S. Census Bureau website and from the Environmental Systems Research Institute (ESRI), 380 New York Street, Redlands, California.
PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT APPENDIX C SITE EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 23 Page 2 of 32 POPULATION DISTRIBUTION AND EVACUATION TIME ESTIMATES
- 3.
Estimates of workforce populations were based on information from the previous evacuation time estimate study and telephone conversations with specific employers.
- 4.
Listings of transient facilities (parks, hotels, motels, recreational) were provided by emergency planning officials from Van Buren, Allegan, and Berrien Counties. Additional information was obtained from telephone phone books and Internet searches.
- 5.
Descriptions of the roadway network were obtained from the previous evacuation time estimate study and the Van Buren, Allegan, and Berrien County Highway Departments. The roadway network was surveyed and the characteristics such as number of lanes, pavement width, shoulder type and width, posted speed limits, interchange and intersection geometries were noted and used for preparing the input streams for the transportation model.
1.3 General Assumptions
- 1.
An actual evacuation would be conducted in accordance with current State and County radiological emergency response plans.
- 2.
The evacuation time estimates represent an estimate of the time required to evacuate the population from the affected subareas included in the evacuation cases and include estimates of preparation and mobilization time.
- 3.
The evacuation time estimates were developed assuming that all special facilities (eg, schools, group homes) will be informed to evacuate at the same time as the general population.
- 4.
The simultaneous evacuation of the Palisades AND DC Cook EPZs was not considered in this study.
- 5.
It is assumed that all persons within the EPZ would evacuate the affected subareas.
- 6.
It was assumed that the public would travel on evacuation routes designated by State and County law enforcement and emergency preparedness officials.
- 7.
It was assumed that the permanent population would evacuate from their residences.
- 8.
It was assumed that persons would evacuate as a family unit.
PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT APPENDIX C SITE EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 23 Page 3 of 32 POPULATION DISTRIBUTION AND EVACUATION TIME ESTIMATES
- 9.
It was assumed that 100% of the school population would be evacuated directly to the appropriate reception centers and that no parental pickup would occur.
- 10.
It was assumed that school staff would evacuate with the students and not via their own vehicles.
- 11.
Transport-dependent, including special needs individuals, would be evacuated by bus or ambulance as coordinated by State and County, and municipal emergency preparedness officials.
- 12.
It was assumed that existing lane utilization and traffic control devices would be used during the evacuation.
- 13.
It was assumed that State and County, and municipal preparedness officials would restrict access into the EPZ or affected areas during the evacuation.
PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT APPENDIX C SITE EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 23 Page 4 of 32 POPULATION DISTRIBUTION AND EVACUATION TIME ESTIMATES 2.0 POPULATION ESTIMATION The development of evacuation times necessarily involves estimation of vehicle demand. For this study, vehicle demand estimation was done in two stages. First, the number and distribution of the human population was made. Second, the number and types of vehicles that would be used during an evacuation were estimated. Regulatory guidance suggests that three population segments should be considered: permanent residents, transients, and special facility residents1.
Permanent residents were defined as those individuals residing at a primary residence that is within the EPZ. Persons considered transients included tourists and employees not residing in the EPZ. The special facility population included those residents confined to hospitals and nursing and group homes. School populations (students and staff) were considered part of the special facility population.
2.1 Permanent Population The permanent population was estimated by superimposing the PNPP EPZ map on U.S. Census Bureau census block maps. Using EPZ maps those census blocks that best matched the actual EPZ were selected. The five subareas within the EPZ were also defined based on the best match to the census block map. In most instances the actual EPZ edges and the subarea boundaries were consistent with census block boundaries; census boundaries usually follow man-made and natural geographic divisions such as major roadways, rivers, and political boundaries such as County lines.
The location of the PNPP was taken as x=12596562, y=305912.
Once the EPZ and subarea boundaries were developed, the census tract and block attributes were linked to Table P39 in Census Summary File 1 (SF1), which was obtained from the US Census Bureau website. The linked tables were then compiled for each subarea and the permanent populations were tabulated. This data is summarized in Table 2.1. The detailed permanent population for each subarea and county data is given in Appendix A.

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT APPENDIX C SITE EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 23 Page 6 of 32 POPULATION DISTRIBUTION AND EVACUATION TIME ESTIMATES 2.2 Transient Population The transient population includes those persons that work at locations within the EPZ. Several components of the transient population are discussed below:
Employees A listing of major employers and employee estimates is given in Table 2.2.
Employee population information provided by the Chamber of Commerce survey was updated through telephone conversations. Employers were also asked to estimate the number of workers for each shift and for weekends.
Transient Population in Hotels and Motels Hotels, motels, and bed and breakfasts that could be identified within the EPZ are given in Table 2.3. Local telephone books were used to develop a listing of these facilities and facility information (eg, number of rooms) was gathered during telephone conversations.
Transients at Parks A listing of the parks and recreation areas was taken from the previous ETE and was updated using information provided by emergency planning officials from Berrien and Van Buren Counties and is presented in Table 2.4. It was also assumed that all persons at these facilities would be from outside the EPZ.
Transients at Marinas Marinas in the EPZ are listed in Table 2.5. This listing was taken from the previous ETE and updated with information provided by officials from Van Buren County.
Transients at Shopping Centers No major shopping centers were found in the PNPP EPZ.
2.3 SPECIAL FACILITY POPULATIONS This section describes how different components of the special facility population were estimated. In this study, special facility populations included those individuals that have special needs and might require assistance during an evacuation, school and preschool children, and residents of facilities such as hospitals, and nursing homes.

Nursinq Homes A list of nursing homes, group homes, and community-based care centers is given Table 2.7. This listing was taken from the previous ETE and reviewed by officials from Allegan, Van Buren, and Berrien Counties.
Schools A listing of schools and preschools provided by emergency planning officials from Allegan, Van Buren, and Berrien Counties. Each facility was contacted via telephone and the estimates of enrollment and staff were tabulated.
This data is given in Table 2.8.
2.4 Special Events Populations Several festival events are held in the South Haven vicinity on an annual basis. The Harbor Fest and All Crafts Fair attract about 20,000 people and are held on the first weekend in September. The South Haven Blueberry Festival is held on the last full weekend of July and attracts about 14,000 people to the area. Finally, the Fourth of July parade and fireworks draw approximately 25,000 to the South Haven beach area.
These events are not concurrent so it is not necessary to plan for an event with more that the event with the greatest attendance. For these EPZ, the greatest special event attendance is the Fourth of July activity.
2.5 Adjustments To Populations Some adjustments to the population estimates were made when it was plausible that a given population could fluctuate and affect evacuation time estimates.
For example, a population change might occur as a result of workforce populations moving in and out of the EPZ. Whatever the reason, it is impossible for a person to be in more than one place at a given time and approximated adjustments to populations may be deemed appropriate.
Following are discussions on how the various populations presented in Sections 2.1 through 2.4, were adjusted.

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT APPENDIX C SITE EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 23 Page 14 of 32 POPULATION DISTRIBUTION AND EVACUATION TIME ESTIMATES Permanent Population Adjustments The permanent population was adjusted to account for those individuals that commute to workplaces outside the EPZ. In the event of an actual evacuation, these individuals would be outside the EPZ and would already be evacuated.
Table P31 of the U.S. Census Summary File 3 (SF3) was used to estimate the portion of employees (citizens > 16 years age) commuting to workplaces outside the EPZ. A commute time of greater than 30 minutes was assumed to be indicative of travel outside the EPZ. Based on this assumption and using Table P31 of SF3, approximately 33% of Van Buren County residents leave the EPZ for work and approximately 20% of Berrien County residents leave the EPZ for work. There are no major employers in the Allegan County portion of the EPZ.
Employee Population Adjustments The employee populations were adjusted to reflect the knowledge that some of the employees at workplaces in the EPZ probably commute from outside the EPZ and thus were not also counted in the permanent population. During the telephone conversations conducted to update the employee populations, the employers were asked to estimate the percentage of employees traveling more than 10 miles to work.
Unfortunately, none of the employers listed in Table 2.2 were able to provide such estimates.
The only worker demographic information was provided by emergency planning officials from Van Buren County and is summarized in Table 2.9. Of the approximate 19,737 workers in Van Buren County, 15,286 (or 77.5%) were from Van Buren County. It was assumed that the remaining 4,451 workers from outside the county were also from outside the EPZ. The employee transient population was not counted as permanent population and the adjustment was 22.5% (4,451/19,737).
Hotel, Motel, Park and Marina Populations It was assumed that the transient populations estimated at hotels and motels, and for parks and recreation areas and marinas would be from outside the EPZ and were not part of the permanent population. While it is possible that permanent residents could be using these facilities, which would constitute double counting, no data was available to make such an estimate. Also, it is possible that some of the hotel and motel population might also use parks and recreation areas while in the EPZ, which would also result in double counting. Similarly, no data was available to make an estimate so it was assumed that hotel and motel populations and park and recreation area populations were distinct and separate.
PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT SITE EMERGENCY PLAN POPULATION DISTRIBUTION AND EVACUATION TIME ESTIMATES Hospital Populations It was assumed that all patients at hospitals were from outside the EPZ. The staff were treated as employees (listed in Table 2.2) and adjusted as discussed in Section 2.5.

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT APPENDIX C SITE EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 23 Page 16 of 32 POPULATION DISTRIBUTION AND EVACUATION TIME ESTIMATES Nursing and Group Home Populations It was assumed that all residents of nursing and group homes reside at such facilities on a permanent basis and were counted as permanent residents in the Census data. Therefore, no adjustments to these populations were necessary.
School Populations The data for schools given in Table 2.8 indicate population estimates for both staff and students. All student populations, and a portion of the staff population, were also considered part of the permanent population. During non-school times (evenings and summers) students were assumed to reside at their residences.
Special Events Populations No data was available to estimate the percentage of the special event attendees that reside outside the EPZ. Therefore, it was assumed that all special event attendees reside outside the EPZ and were not counted as part of the permanent population.
3.0 VEHICLE DEMAND ESTIMATION Once the specific population components were established the average number of people occupying vehicles was determined. Following are vehicle demand estimates for each of the population components.
3.1 Vehicle Demands of the Permanent Population The average household size and vehicle occupancy data were estimated using Summary File 3 of the U.S. 2000 census. The population of each county was taken from Table P39 of Summary File 1, the number of households was taken from Table DP-4 of SF3, and the number of vehicles was taken from Table H46 of SF3.
For Allegan County the average household size was 105,665 persons per 43,292 households, or 2.44. The vehicle occupancy for the permanent population was 105,665 persons per 75,510 vehicles or 1.40.
For Berrien County the household size was 162,452/73,445, or 2.21.
Vehicle occupancy was 162,452/110,443, or 1.47.
In Van Buren County, the household size was 76,263/33,975, or 2.24.
Vehicle occupancy was 76,263/54,292, or 1.41.
PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT APPENDIX C SITE EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 23 Page 17 of 32 POPULATION DISTRIBUTION AND EVACUATION TIME ESTIMATES A summary of the permanent population, households, and vehicle count by subarea is given in Table 3.1. The data presented in Table 3.1 are estimates of the maximum permanent population and vehicle counts but do not reflect the minor corrections discussed in Section 2.5.
3.2 Vehicle Demands of Transient Populations Vehicle Demands of Employees Estimates of vehicle counts for employees are given in Table 3.2. The employee populations given in Table 2.2 were adjusted to account for only those individuals living outside the EPZ (50% of total) and were applied to each shift. Vehicle estimates were based on the assumption that an average of one person would occupy evacuating vehicles. Most, if not all, staff at schools would accompany students to relocation centers and are not counted in this table.
Vehicle Demands for Other Transient Populations A summary of vehicle demand estimates for populations at hotels and motels is given in Table 3.3. Populations in motels and hotels were based on the assumptions that room occupancy is an average of two persons per room. Vehicle demands for hotels and motels were based on the assumption that one vehicle per room would be used during an evacuation.

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT APPENDIX C SITE EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 23 Page 21 of 32 POPULATION DISTRIBUTION AND EVACUATION TIME ESTIMATES A summary for parks and recreation areas was given in Table 2.4. Populations and vehicle estimates for parks and recreational facilities were based on telephone conversations, Internet searches and assumptions that maximum use is based on available parking spaces. A population of four persons per parking space was assumed. A summary of all transient populations by subarea is given in Table 3.4.
3.3 Vehicle Demands of Special Facility Populations Estimates of the special facilities populations were presented in Table 2.6 (hospitals), Table 2.7 (nursing and group homes) and Table 2.8 (schools, preschools, daycares). Estimates of the special needs individuals and transportation-dependent individuals were presented in Section 2.3.
Most individuals in the special facilities population are ambulatory and would not require special transportation capability such as wheel chair lifts or ramps or an ambulance. Nevertheless, the staff at the Country Side Nursing Home and the South Haven Community Hospital (both in Subarea 4) and The Watervliet Hospital in Subarea 5 did indicate that as many as 140 persons might require wheel chair-capable transportation.
Also, the two hospitals indicated that as many as 22 people may require ambulance transportation.
It was assumed that all special facility populations, including the necessary staff persons, would evacuate with the population via bus, van, ambulance, or other suitable means as described in existing response plans.
Emergency planning officials provided listings of transportation resources that would be available in an evacuation event.
Van Buren County has available up to 156 school buses each with a capacity of 72 persons. Also, Van Buren County has 34 special education vehicles each with a capacity of 15 persons. Van Buren Transit could also provide 12 additional buses with capacities of 12 plus one wheel chair each, 7 buses with capacities of 22 plus two wheel chairs each, and two minivans providing capacity of nineteen. Allegan County has available 61 buses each with a capacity of 66.
Ambulances would be available from South Haven Emergency (2), Covert Fire and Ambulance (2), Van Buren EMS (4 + 3 wheel chair units), and Coloma Ambulance (3). Each ambulance unit has a capacity of two persons (plus crew). Based on these resource estimates, bus capacity is approximately 16,000 persons, wheel chair capacity is 32 persons, and ambulance capacity is 11 persons.
A summary of the special facility populations and vehicle demand is given in Table 3.5.

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT APPENDIX C SITE EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 23 Page 24 of 32 POPULATION DISTRIBUTION AND EVACUATION TIME ESTIMATES 4.0 METHODOLOGY 4.1 Estimation of Trip Generation Times Trip generation times can be thought as descriptions of how vehicles begin to move on the roadway network. In this study, it was assumed that no vehicles would begin evacuating for at least 30 minutes (maximum 15 minute notification time and 15 minute trip preparation time) after the declaration of an emergency. It must be emphasized that the evacuating public will not begin to leave at the same time. Rather, the departure times for vehicles vary. A common way of expressing trip generation times is with cumulative time distributions. The set of these distribution used for this study is presented in Figure 4.1.
Departure times are a function of trip preparation times, perceived urgency, and logistics involved in arriving home from work and coordinating efforts with other family members. It was assumed that all the permanent population would begin an evacuation within two hours of an emergency announcement.
It was assumed that the transient population would be informed of the evacuation within 30 minutes. While employees may be expected to remain at the workplace to facilitate workplace shutdowns, it was assumed that such activities would not last longer than 30 minutes. Other components of the transient population (ie, hotel and motel patrons) would likely act similarly.
Schools will be evacuated, also at the Site Area Emergency level, directly to reception centers as soon as transportation resources arrive at the schools.
It was assumed that bus mobilization times would be about an hour.
Accordingly, the schools population could be expected to evacuate within ninety minutes of an evacuation decision.
4.2 Evacuation Routes The evacuation routes evaluated in this study have been established in previous traffic network analyses and reflect the need to move vehicles from specific subareas to designated relocation destinations. The purpose of this study is to generate evacuation time estimates assuming these routes are appropriate. Evacuation routes are listed by subarea in Table 4.1.

PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT APPENDIX C SITE EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 23 Page 27 of 32 POPULATION DISTRIBUTION AND EVACUATION TIME ESTIMATES 4.3 Estimation of Highway Capacity Once the vehicle demand and loading characteristics (eg, trip generation time) have been determined the next step is to estimate the capacity of the street and highway network. The ability of the road network to handle vehicle demand is a major factor in determining evacuation times.
By definition, capacity is the maximum numbers of vehicles that can pass a given point during a specified period considering roadway, traffic, and control conditions (ie, signaling or signage). By convention, capacity is expressed in units of vehicles per hour (vph).
In discussing capacity, different traffic flow conditions have been assigned alphabetical designations, A through F, to generally reflect varying traffic operational characteristics. These designations have been termed "Levels of Service" (LOS). For example, LOS A connotes free-flow and high-speed operating conditions; LOS F represents a forced flow condition. LOS E describes traffic operating at or near capacity.
Because of the effect of weather on the capacity of a roadway, it is necessary to adjust capacity figures to represent estimated road conditions during inclement weather. Based on limited empirical data, weather conditions such as heavy rain reduce the values of capacity for highways by approximately 20%. For snowy weather conditions during the winter months, reductions of 25% relative to normal weather conditions were assumed. Free-flow speeds for inclement weather conditions were also reduced 20% for rain and 25% for snow. These factors are applied to all roadway segments.
In the congested traffic environment, which is often characteristic of an evacuation scenario, the capacity of a roadway section has the greatest effect on travel time. The major factors that control capacity of intersections and the approaches to intersections are turning movements, competing traffic streams, control regimes, traffic composition, and approach geometries. The major factors that control capacity along roadway segments are traffic composition, weather conditions, pavement conditions, and lighting.
Capacity estimations were made for two-lane roads, multi-lane roads, multi-lane freeways, and freeway ramps. Estimates for roads and freeways were done on a "per lane" basis. Capacities at intersections were approximated by the simulation software and are described later.
PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT APPENDIX C SITE EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 23 Page 28 of 32 POPULATION DISTRIBUTION AND EVACUATION TIME ESTIMATES To represent the varying road types and geometries, roads were categorized in the following manner:
10 ft lanes with 1 ft shoulders 11 ft lanes with 2 ft shoulders 12 ft lanes with 6 ft shoulders Using data from Chapter 20 of HCM 2000 and from the previous ETES for the PNPP estimates were made for both two-way and one-way traffic.
Highway capacity was estimated to be 1,000 vph per lane. Freeway capacity was estimated to be 1,692 vph per lane and freeway ramp capacity was estimated to be 1,333 vph.
PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT APPENDIX C SITE EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 23 Page 29 of 32 POPULATION DISTRIBUTION AND EVACUATION TIME ESTIMATES 4.4 Application of EPZ Data to Model The model simulation tools used for this ETE are grouped together in a computer software package called the Traffic Software Integrated System (TSIS). TSIS is developed and distributed by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA). TSIS consists of several modules, or components, that can be used to represent entire traffic environments.
The first tool used in TSIS is TRAFED, a graphical tool that allows one to create representations of traffic networks and is specifically designed to work with FHWA's Corridor Simulation (CORSIM) microscopic traffic simulator. CORSIM consists of an integrated set of two microscopic models; NETSIM represents traffic on urban streets and FRESIM represents traffic on freeways.
In this study, the network of major roadways in the PNPP was entered into TSIS using the TRAFED module. TRAFED network layouts consist of a series of nodes and links. In general, nodes can be thought of as intersections and links can be thought of as roadways. Some nodes are not intersections but represent sources or sinks of traffic, or describe a connection between a FRESIM and NETSIM modules. Source nodes were used to describe traffic loading onto the roadway network from population "centroids". These centroids were developed by combining vehicle counts from adjoining census blocks. Sink, or exit, nodes represented points on evacuation routes outside the EPZ.
Once a roadway network has been developed and the entry nodes have been edited to reflect the loading histograms, the TRAFED file is loaded into the CORSIM module. CORSIM is a stochastic, or probabilistic model. This means that random numbers are generated and assigned to vehicles.
When a simulation is run the characteristics of that vehicles travel are the result of a specific set of random numbers. Therefore, to gain a better understanding of transportation the network must be simulated several times using different sets of random numbers. In this study, each scenario examined was run at least three times.
PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT APPENDIX C SITE EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 23 Page 30 of 32 POPULATION DISTRIBUTION AND EVACUATION TIME ESTIMATES 5.0 EVACUATION TIME ESTIMATES 5.1 Evacuation Regions and Scenarios Evacuation Reqions The Palisades NPP EPZ is divided into five subareas that reflect a best match between geographic boundaries and two-, five-, and ten-mile radii around the plant.
Federal guidance documents also specify that the EPZ be divided into sixteen sectors each representing 22.50 segments around the compass. In the event of an emergency, officials will consider the severity and nature of the emergency and weather conditions (eg, wind strength and direction),
and will recommend protective action for some or all of the subareas.
Officials will specify which segment(s) at what distance from the Palisades NPP (2-, 5-, or 10-miles) are affected. This "keyhole" is superimposed on the EPZ map and subarea area selected. Sixteen compass segments at three different radii yields forty-eight, subarea groupings. Because there are only 5 subareas, however, most of the subarea groups are the same.
To avoid redundant analyses of scenarios a list of unique subarea groups was assembled and is given in Table 5.1. Each of these six subarea groups is referred to as an Evacuation Region.
Evacuation Scenarios To evaluate the evacuation of the Palisades NPP EPZ under circumstances that offer different population composition and attributes, evacuation time estimates were conducted considering different combinations of these scenarios. An evacuation scenario can be thought of as a specific set of conditions that might exist at the commencement of a General Emergency.
The conditions considered in this study are season (summer versus winter),
day of the week (weekday versus weekend day), Time of day (daytime versus evening or night), and weather (fair or poor). If the season is summer poor weather is rain and if the season is winter poor weather is a 6-8" snow. These scenarios are given in Table 5.2.
PALISADES NUCLEAR PLANT APPENDIX C SITE EMERGENCY PLAN Revision 23 Page 31 of 32 POPULATION DISTRIBUTION AND EVACUATION TIME ESTIMATES 5.2 EPZ Evacuation Time Estimates Using data described in Section 3.0 and the simulation described in Section 4.0, evacuation time estimates were made. The results of these estimates are summarized in Table 5.3 and Table 5.4. The times provided in this table represent estimates of travel time of the last evacuating vehicle to reach the EPZ edge and do not consider travel time from the EPZ edge to a relocation center. It should also be noted that these estimates only reflect the movement of people from the affected areas and do not reflect movement of those individuals that might evacuate from subareas adjoining the affected subarea(s).
