85-004-419.06

Dear Mr. Knighton:

The referenced Emergency Planning Statement of Policy was issued by guidance to the Staff in uncontested cases in connection with the issuance of full power operating licenses.

Such guidance provides that the Staff in uncontested cases "may find that applicants who have met the requirements of

[Section]

50.47(b)(12) as interpreted, by

the, Commission before the GUARD decision and who commit to full compliance with the Commission's response to the GUARD remand meet the requirements of [Section] 50.47(c)(1) and therefore are entitled to license conditioned on full compliance with the Commission's response to the GUARD remand."

Emergency planning for the Palo Verde Nuclear Generating Station (PVNGS) complies with the Commission's interpretation of [Section] 50.47(b)(12) prior to the GUARD decision requiring the listing of area medical facilities capable of treating off-site members of the public who are seriously irradiated.

Such listing of area medical facilities is found in the "Fixed Nuclear Facility Off-Site Emergency

Response

Plan" of the State of Arizona and the County of

Maricopa, pages D-10-1 through D-10-3, D-10-C-1 and D-10-D-1 (copies..attached) which has been approved by FEMA.

The capability of the listed facilities is established by accreditation pursuant to the Joint Commission on Hospital Accreditation Manual (1985 Edition), Emergency Services

Section, pages 23-24.

Applicant Arizona Public Service Company (APS) hereby commits to fully comply with the Commission's response to the GUARD remand to the extent that such compliance is within the control of APS.

To the extent that full compliance is dependent upon action required to be taken by state and/or local governmental agencies or other entities over which APS has to control, APS commits to use its best efforts to secure compliance by such agencies or entities.

20882, May 21, 1985 Page 2

On basis of the foregoing, APS requests the staff to make the findings authorized by the referenced Emergency Planning Statement of Policy, including without limitation, the finding that APS is entitled to licenses for PVNGS Units 1, 2 and 3 conditioned on full compliance with the Commission's response to the GUARD remand.

Gene ral I ~

Patients, especially trauma and/o r hum vict tms whose in juries have been complicated as a result of contamination by

. radioactive materials, are in need of special consideration to minimize the effects.

2.

An addi tional concern is the necessi ty to limit the spread of contamination during patient stabilization and transfer.

3.

In order to mitigate radiation ef fects to reduce morbidity and I

an rtality, it is necessary to integrate and coordinate the capabilities of a numher of public,And private agencies.

Governmental Organization and Tasks 1.

The Arizona Department of Health Services (DHS) is the agency having overall res pons ibility for the es tab lishaan t, 1

administration and coordination of a

statewide sys tern of eaergency medical services (EMS).

As lead agency tne DHS will coordinate EMS activities with the Maricopa County Department of Health Se rvices, and the Radiological Ene rgency Assistance Team '(REAT) of the Arizona Radiation Regulatory Agency (ARRA)

\\

as well as the Operations Directorate to ensure the provision of appropriate erne rgency

-medical se rvices.

" By agreement, onsite assistance is rende red by spe cific esca rgen cy resource 1

agencies at the direct request of the nuclear'acility.

Other governmental entities are to respond to erre rgen cies occurring offsite only when a specific request for resources js received from the facility in connection with notification follow~p.

Maryvale Samaritan Hospital.

The West Valley Eaergency Center wil1 se rve as the suppo rt facility.

These treatment centers have also been designated by the nuclear facility as receiving centers for patients injured onsite, and both have been found "to have narc than adequate staff a'nd support elements to treat the special needs of aFFected patients.

2..

There are a number of additional facilities, including the Luke Air Force Base Hospital located 30 miles from the plant, which has the capability to treat contaminated patients.

Additional hospitals have adequately trained personnel and are willing to accept patients who have been contaminated by radioact ive materials.

(See Tab C.)

D.

Transportation Resources 1.

The Arizona'uclear Powe r

Project, through its ope rating

agency, Arizona Public Se rvice

Company, has agreed to provide the suppo rt if available, of the ambulance unit used ons ite.

State regulations restrict the transport of patients by an industrial ambulance except in a life or death situation.

The nearest available ground ambulance in the area at this 'tim is a

volunteer se rvice located in Buckeye (17 miles) and a

commercial unit operating from Li'tchfield Park (30 miles).

In addi tion, a

numbe r of priva te air, ambulances and the

= Arizona Department of Public Safe ty (fixed wing and helicopte rs) are '

wow-d'or avai lab le within a

re lat I ve ly short pe rind of time for t rans port ation and also

provide, as a

minimum, paramedic si rvI< es.

"I'lu s~

wl I I A'('e I vr apprnprI ate t raining to deal with radar atIon vie t ims.

The Arizona Departaant of Public Safe ty is in the process of installing a'icrowave sys tern (Eme rgency Medical Se rvices Commun ications System -

EMSCOM) which will allow a

phys ician in the base hospital to communicate with the Emergency Medical Technician either at the scene or enroute.

Provision is also being made to ultimately provide a

teleme try capability.

The City of Phoenix Fire Department continues to be ins t rument al in providing on-line commun ications from its dispa tch center.

In this case as the ambulance unit approaches the Phoenix are a, the communications traffic is coordinated by the'hoenix Fire De pa rtmen t.
