{{#Wiki_filter:_ UNITED STATES OF AMERICA NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION BEFORE THE ATOMIC SAFETY AND LICENSING BOARD In the Matter of ) ) CONSUMERS POWER COMPANY ) Docket "o. 50-155 ) (Big Rock Point Nuclear Power Point) ANSWERS OF CONSUMERS POWER COMPANY TO INTERROGATORIES PROPOUNDED BY CHRISTA-MARIA, ET AL. Pursuant to 10 C.F.R. S2.740b and the schedule for discovery set forth in the Atomic Safety and Licensing Board's " Order Following Special Prehearing Conference," Consumers Power Company (" Licensee") hereby submits answers to Interrogatories ?-1(c), 8-8c, 9-3, and 9-12a propounded by Christa-Maria. Interrogatory 2-1(c) Please explain in general the impact that the existence of leakers have on the level of radiation in and around a spect fuel storage pool. A. Direct Answer Consumers Power has not seen any significant impact of leakers on radiation levels in and around the spent fuel storage pool. On a few occasions in the past a small bubble of gaseous activity was released when a leaker was first transferred from the reactor vessel to the spent fuel pool. Such bubbles, and radiation levels in general in and around the spent fuel storage pool have 8106 080 0
- never presented a radiological health and safety problem to my knowledge.
B. Documents Relied Upon None. C. Documents Reviewed Bat Not Relied Upon None. D. Further Activities None. Interrogatory 8-8c What level of radiation would preclude ingress into containment? A. Answer As Licensee interprets this question, the level of radiation which would preclude ingress into con-tainment is that which would cause the individual entering containment to receive more than the appro-priate dose limit, taking into account the duration of the action required. In accordance with applicable Federal guidance, the Big Rock Point Site Emergency Plan specifies that in emergency situations rescue and monitoring personnel must maintain their total ind1-vidual dose below 25 rem, unless saving of life is involved, in which case an individual dose of up to 100 rem is permitted. These emergency dose limits are, of course, in excess of the average lifetime dose limit of 5 rem per year specified in 10 CFR Part 20 for normal l occupational exposure. l l l l

Interrogatory 9-3 Does the Licensee maintain alphn monitors in or around the Big Rock Plant? a. Where are they located? b. How often are they calibrated and otherwise tested to assure effectiveness and accuracy? ( A. Direct Answer Consumers Power Company does not maintain alpha monitors around the Big Rock Plant. Routinely, environ-mental samples are collected and sent to an Environmental Contractor for beta and gamma analysis per the contract. The samples are not immediately analyzed for alpha but are stors3 for a period of at least 8 months after l December 31 of each year. The samples would be analyzed if significant alpha activity is noted from the inplant effluent samples. Any alpha detected on the environmental samples would be included in the NRC Annual Environmental Monitoring Report. Inplant effluent samples, i e., stack particulate filters and liquid wasta discharge I I -_.,_.,----c ,-,--,r.
4 samples, are routinely sent to an Environmental Contractor for analysis. The results of these alpha analyses are ecmpiled and included in the NRC Semi-Annual Radioactive Effluent Release Report. In-plant alpha monitoring equipment is located in the Chemistry Laboratory and Access Control area. These instruments are checked with an alpha source on a daily easis, 3600 count frequency line test on a daily basis, correct voltage setting determination (plateau curve) as required, i.e., after instrument repair or alpha source check-out of acceptable criteria range and an annual calibration. Radioactive sources used for the daily check and annual calibration are traceable to the National Bureau of Standards. B. Documents Relied Upon 1.

I'm Lieutenant Ray Cooke from the Michigan State Police Emergency Services Division and we are here this afternoon to critique the exercise that was completed yesterday by both the State and the Federal and the facility here in the Big Rock Point Nuclear Power Plant Area. I'd like to 'stroduce the people at the head table. To my immediate right is Mr Patrick (McCullough?). Pat is the Director of the Federal Emergency Management Agency as the Plans and Preparedness Director in Region V, located in Battle Creek, and he also chairs the Regional Advisory Committee of the Federal Emergency Managesent Agency. Seated to his right is Ms Kimberly, who is our secretary, and will be taking notes from there. On my immediate left is Captain Peter (Visolo?), who is Commanding Officer of the Emergency Services Division and also Deputy Statt ector of 8 Emergency Sarvices in the State of Michigaa. To start this meeting off and this critique, I would like to comment that I am particularly impressed and very happy with the outcomo of the joint relationship and cooperation,md the diligent effort that was expended by all people at all levels of government and the facility, the Federal, the State, the County and the Consumers Power Facility people. I will call first upon the State 0,ffice to give a critique of what transpired at the State Emergency Services Office in Lansing and then next, I will give a critique of the On-Scene State EOC, Emergency Operating Center here in Petoskey - and then the counties that were involved - and then we'll ask a spokesman from the - spokesperson from the facility to comment on their critique - and then at that point, I'll turn it over to Mr McCullough who rp0680-1515a-56 - - - -. _ _ - ~. _
4 2 will give the critique from the Regi9aal Advisory Committee. I would ask that any questions be held until after we've had an opportunity to go all through the various critiques or we'll have difficulty in getting through ~ the day. First, I would like to call Mr Duano Troeley, who is from the Emergency Services Division of the State Police, who was the Operations Officer at the I.ansing Emergency Operating Center. Mr Troeley. Tromley: At the State EOC in Iansing, we had representatives from the eight Stata departments that were involved with the exercise - and we were organized J on the same basis as the On-Scene State EOC and probably loal EOCs. We had the executive group, the operations group and the damage assessment group or accident assessment group. In the executd.ve group, we were privileged to have the attendance of the Director of the Department, Colonel Hogue, who is the State Director of Ea'ergency Services, plus Mr Peter Elsworth and Mr Jonathan Caine, the Governor's representatives - and they sat though the whole exercise beginning with the briefing first i thing in the morning. I want to draw attention to the fact that we tested a concept - and the concept that was tested for a nuclear incident was the concept of an On-S,cene State EOC, a forward command post as you may for State government. ' Ibis is not the usual form of operation that we would have for other types of disaster scenarios - and th2re was a need we felt for that On-Scene State EOC because of the significance of radiological monitoring readings that may be and would be radiood into the On-Scene State EOC - so we are talking about radio transmission distances and plus the relationship to the' news management function or the Jcint Public Information Center - and that concept see:ned to work very satisfactorily. Do want to state here in Lansing as we had here at Petoskey plus the two rp0680-1515a-56 i - -. - - -. _ _. - _ -. ~,, _ -... - -.,
3 counties, we have interim EOCs - so we had some deficiencies tscause of that fact. At Lansing, we had to operate out of three rooms with walls dividing rooms, rather than a large epen room like we are sitting in here today - so that caused some communications difficulties. In Lansing, at least that will be corrected when we have our State EOC constructed in the I basement of the building that we are at. We were all so short on telephone connections to ecch of the work stations and that proved some problem. Because of the small size of the facility, crowdedness resulted in some confusion and prob'. ems and access for messengers and so forth - and we can correct that with large - a larger room next time around. Message readability I'm sure you experienced the same thing that we did. You can't read that fourth copy. You have to get people to bear down harder or come up with some other method of reproducing these messages. We did run out of forms, but that can always happen. We had a total of 61 messcges that were processed through the State Emergency Operating Center at Lansing. Another minor type of critique, the next time we go around, we figure we.'ve got to have more time allowed for registering the passes. That ran into - actually start exercise time that we had there at Lansing and caused some confusion. We ran into difficulty with the lien messages coming somewhat later - I'd say significantly later than the telephone messages and, at some times, these were interpreted as being separate messages and they got into the flow as a separate message, rather than catching up with the telephone message. We do see a lot of merit in the lien - use of the lien system, because you have the hard cory, but we've got to figure out some way to marry those up. The other difficulty that we experienced, I went through the messages at - about 10:35, Rad Health rp0680-1515a-56 -,-..y
4 i l recommended in the On-Scane State EOC that the Governor considered ordering Evacuation Sectors D, E and F. At 10:40, the Governor's representative suitably ordered that evacuation, but it wasn't until about i 11:15 or so that we actually received back from the field the actual area r that was designated to be evacuated - and to - we needed to know that area so that the different departments could coordinate some of their other response, because they couldn't do it with just knowing the sectore - and we can improve on that. But all in all, the State EOC functioned as we wanted it to function. Messages were passed around properly. Decisions were made correctly. The plan - the State Plan, The Michigan Emergency Preparedness Plan was well in evidence - and was referred to constantly by the department coordinators and other personnel - plus other response procedures were followed. Thank you.
- i Cooks:
Thank you, Duane. I was the Operatienal Commander in the On-Scene ~ Emergency Service, Emergency Operating Center at the Petoskey State Police Post - and I would say that one thing, if anything, that I would remark that came te my attention and impressed me the most, was the dedicction and the atmcsphere, the professional atmosphere and attitude of the participants in the EOC, You know, that's really what this is all about is the coordination of governmental resources, not only at the Federal, but the State and the County and the Municipal levels - and that's exactly what this was in action - and I was highly impressed with the cooperation that we had from all of the State agencies and County agencies that were represented. I felt, as far as the facility was concerned, that it was adequate and that it did the job. We ware able to parform. Ideally, you wocid have a regular Emergency Operating Center that's built just for rp0680-1515a-56
5 that. Where you would have perhaps even individual booths for better acoustics and this sort of thing. Vs didn't have that, but we were able to improvise by bringing in tables, telephones, communication equipment and we were able to perform. So, by and large, the facilities were adequate. We felt dIso, that the other EDCs coordinated their activities very well with us. Communications - coansunications is always a big stumbling block. There is always problems with communications - the way 2 pecple say things - whether if it's electronic - if you have ever given any instructions and you rely on communication equipment - invariably you have the wrong plug - or it won't plug in or - there's all kinds of communication problems - and I would be the first to admit that we weren't without some communication difficulties. But they were minor in nature 1 and we had a resolution for them. We were able to resolve the difficulty. h And what I speak of is one link of communication that we had frbs our Emergency Operating Center to our command trailer, radio, walkie-talkie type of instrument. And this was not working properly, it was cutting out and you wouldn't hear the enti're transmission. But, I called upon the Department of Military Affairm who had field phones that they could quickly install and they did do that and we were back in business in no time at all. It worked out very well. The types of redundancy we had in communication, we had, of course, the telephone, we had field phones, we had radio communication, and we had the Law Enforcement Information Network and, other than the walkie-talkie that I spoke of, there was no breakdown in communications. Direction and control, as we would relate to direction and control, simultaneously we were able to report to the Emergency Operating Centers and the counties and also the one in the rp0680-1515a-56 - ~ -.. . -. - _ - ~ - - _. - -. -.- -.- - - -,_
6 State - so we could give them all the message at the same time where they would hear it the first time through - and this seemed to work well. Warnings from the State Level Information was given to the counties to their public information officers and they were received here on a timely basis. The Media Center, the Joint Public Information Wedia Center was i. housed right here in this room where tce had the Governor's office represented; we had the Consumers Power Plant represented here; we had the Emmet County, a public informacion officer here as well as the Charlevoix l County - and that seemed to work very well with their liaison counterpart i in their respective Emergency Operating Centers; The protection action guides as they were carried out on a timely basis upon the recommendation ^ of the radiological health - Department of Radiological Health and by the authority of the Governor. There were some operational issues that became j minor problems for us. They were not serious and we were able to overcome
- 'l them - and I feel by and large that, as in other disasters, real disasters i
that we participated in over the years, this one was a success from an operational basis. At this time, I would like to call on Mr Earl Musa, the Emergency Services Coordinator for the County of Charlevoix. If he'll just give an overview of how he feels the operation went in his county. Earl. l ~ l Muma: I'm Earl Musa from Charlevoix. Cooke: You can come up here Earl, and - then everyone can hear you real well; although you do have a good, strong voice. Muma: That strong voice comes from 24 years of military service, OK. Maybe this is where a little bit of this expertise came from in this drill this last rp0680-1515a-56 ___ = -n. -n n
7 time. Because I've been through a lot of ORIs with the military and stuff. I think our exercise went off as well as anybody could expect it. I want to thank all of my department heads, or our department heads in Charlevoix County, for doing the job that they did. Because without them, the thing couldn't of went on. They've written a wonderful plan and - t well, I don't know what else to say, just to say thanks to everybody that 1 made the plan work for us. I can't do it myself. I needed everybody in the departments to help us all the way through. So, thank you very much and we'll do it again. Cooko: Thank you Earl. And now from Emmet County if Mr John Tyson will please l step forward. Well, I th' ink we did a very good job ourselves and I'm glad Earl brought Tyson: One of them, it's not a single-man's operation, it's up several points. 1 everybody's - everybody has to pull together to make this sort of an operation work. We are not trying to do any harm to any person or to any people, but to assist them. And I believe by pulling together, we were able to do this. We fed information to Charlevoix's EOC every half hour. Charlevoix's EOC fed us information every half hour. So I would make one l l call like on the even time, Earl would make one on the odd t!me keeping us The - Earl said his police or his military training was a big abreast. help, well I think mine, and the 15 years as a police officer and the many l excellent courses in training offered us by FEMA and by the Michigan State 1 I It's - it's really Police Emergency Services people has been a big help. And I do wonderful that we can have cooperation amongst all of us. believe that because of this drill, Emmet County - and I'm not too sure rp0680-1515a-56
i l l about Charlevoix, but I'm sure it will go the same way - Emmet County is better prepared now to meet any other type of a disaster than what we were ' before we went into the drill. I think a tornado or a flood or anything like that, we are now geared and we know how we can work together and I think it's going to be real beneficial, not only to us, but to the people that's in our community who we serve. We are going to be better prepared to serve them and protect them. And I thank you. C oke: Thank you, John. I don't know who the spokesperson is for Consumers Power Company - if you'd please step forward. Ycung: Thank you Ray, I'm sorry I didn't identify myself before I came into the room; my name is Avery Young, I'm from the Jackson Office. I appreciate the comments that we've heard from everybody so far this afternoon. But j i l I'd like you to understand that within Consumers this is not the first time we've ever run a drill. We - we run these quite regularly, but I do think that we've had a big advantage in being able to work with you and being supported by you as we professionally have pulled off, I think a very - a very fine operation here. We identified some particular problems last night. You've already mentioned communications, Ray - we know that within our technical support center at the plant, we do feel a need for a dedicated line to your State Emergency Operation Center. I particularly would like to thank all of the individuals who have come before us here this af ternoon and those that have supported them in putting together your State, local plans, the media centers and all that we have - I think that between all of us, we have done a very reasonable job - and we look i 3 rp0680-1515a-56
)
9 \\ forward to working with you to - in any way that we can, to smooth over any of the rough spots and make the next one go even better. Thank you. Cooks: Thank you Avery. And now, Mr McCullough, I'll turn control of the meeting over to you. McCullough: Thank you very.much, Ray. It's been a little bit like an,acerds ceremony with minus the award - the thank yous have. been given. Let me begin by introducing as a group the members of the Federal family from a variety of i Federal agencies that were here almost completely ubiquitous everywhere observing this exercise at the State EOC, at the On-Scene EOC, at the Charlevoix EOC, at the Emmet County EOC and those of us who were on the road otherwise as well as the individual from NRC, I guess Bill Atkinson is here I haven't seen him - who was on - on the site as well as those of us who were concerned about offset. If the members of the Federal team i will stand because of questions - I'll be referring some of the questions to them. Will you all stand please. Not all - everyone is still here. We had 17 people here. Spencer Swanson over here from FEMA. Spencer - if l you'll want to sit down. The tall gentlemen in the tan jacket, Mernie I i Vande11, NCP planner from the Federal Emergency Management Agency. Next to him, Bruce Newhart, Ort ?tions Support, Federal Emergency Management Agency. In the dark blazer, Dan Boment, the field officer for the State l of Michigan, who works with the State on a regular basis representing the FEMA and in this case the RAC. Next to him, is Ron Hatcher, from the Department of Transportation, the US Department of Transportation. In the ~ next row, is Bill Mencer from NRC, who's on the RAC. Next to him is Tom Essick from NRC, and one of our real stalwarts and source of information rp0680-1515a-56
10 in expertise. Tom chaired the RAC prior to my chairmanship. Tom's here. I He was at the State. Gordan Wanger, who served as executive secretary to the RAC making the review of state plans in six states possible, Gordon. Ray Kellogg, who is one of our field officers in FEMA, who is with the State of Wisconsin as a regular responsibility and has before served in the State of Michigan and other areas. Peter (Tadeshis?) from the Environmental Protection Agsacy who was at the Charlevoix EOC and also out in the field with the field testing teams. Several other, and also, Kim (Wistey?) she's really the person who's made everything possible in this review effort in six states because, given the speed of operations, we've h'd to respond - have our meetings and respond almost instantly - and Kim a Wistey has made that possible. She's a resident of Minnesota and has travelled to each of the six statas with us. Can't say enough good things 9 I there. Now let me - I intend to give you the comments of the 17 Federal l officials combined in some fashion pro and con about this exercise. But before we go any further, let there be no afatake, Michigan passed this exercise and the officials in Michigan on a State level and the State Police and the Governor's office and the wunties of Charlevoix and Emmet can take great pride in their work product. Those of us who observed the exercise - and it's been done in other states where the same repot: could not be given - left wit't a genuine sense of confidence. But if there were an accident at a nuclear power plant in this state, that the people of Michigan would be protected. We saw knowledgeable people operating in a very professional way who were well trained and their actions were impressive to us. So, there is no need for a further exercise this year l in Michigan. As you know, Three Mile Island generated a number of new I rp0680-1515a-56 U
11 s items to be incorporated in planning. A new criteria document came about as lessons learned at Three Mile Island. Joint NRC-FEMA criteria. t Michigan has modified her plans and the local communities have. The modifications have been reviewed by the RAC. 'Ihe members of the Federal f family, the RAC being the Regional Advisory Committee which exists to u assist the states and evaluate the states and locals in their planning effort relative to nuclear power plants. And she has exercised now those modified plans. And the exercise showed us that the State of Michigan could do, as well as the counties, what they said they could do in their plans. We believe that the public will be protected. And somebody commented that there will be carryover to other disasters - our own f responsibilities in FEMA go to natural man-made, nuclear and now nuclear power plant potential accidents and we feel that there will be a carryover ( too. I was personally very impressed and I was at the On-Scene 4 Charlevoix-Emmet County and I stopped here at the joint press briefing situation - and I'm going to ask if any members of the media at a later point, if you want to put some of your thoughts together - we, if we missed an opportunity - I think we should have had someone here on a full-time basis to observe the complete information f1w - so if - I'm going to ask for your comments to be shared, how you thought this joint-briefing situation worked - and I will also afford an opportunity for people, particularly the participants on the state and the county level, to ask questions of these comments that we are going to give you relative to the exercise. OK. I'll make - I'll share with you the general comments of f the members of the RAC. I will then take you to specific comments. We l asked the state in preparation for this exercise to - to provide the kind l l l rp0680-1515a-56 m . ~... - -. _--..-....n.-........-.
- =. 12 of scenario and cooperation with the utility that would allow us to observe certain major portions of the minimum elements that should be in a plan to protect the public. We wanted to see how communications in warning worked; how accident assessment was made; capability of the field assessment teams; use of the protective action guides; public information; evacuation methodology that would be used; provisions for reentry and recovery of the affected area and direction and control - and, as . appropriate, as soon as the general comments have been made, we'll go to those general areas with comments as appropriate for each of the offices, the State, the On-Scene, the Charlevoix, the Emmet County, etc. The major points as well as the minor points will be made in writing. So this is an oral briefing hot off the press, so to speak, not even to the press, and it maybe a little ragged in parts, but I think you will get a sense of l what the Federal observers saw. I asked - obviously, you don't spsnd a lot time - in the areas of strength, you point out the areas of weakness, and that's why I said, at the outset, let there be no mistake - this state and the counties participating passed the exercise and this phase of planning has - is - has been concluded. There are some other things to be done, but, OK. Enough in the way of general introductory comments now to the general comments. There was a sense by some of the observers, that possibly the exercise was a little bit too much of a walk-through. The briefing at the State office was very thorough - very good briefing. If there was a problem at the State office in terms of that area, it may have been that the person giving the briefing gave perhaps a little bit too much information on the scenario. He should have - in giving that briefing to the staff people, told them the information that was known rp0680-1515a-56 i
13 today. I might also say for futura exercises here in Michigan and other states, the Federal family would like to have a copy of the scenario at least one week in advance so the areas of real import evaluation can be made by the observers as to where they should be. The action essentially in this exercise was at the On-Scene EOC. And, we were not able to determine in time that that's where it was and we would h4ve shifted some personnel based on that, but we did cover every area - so, in the future, 9e would like a week in advance to receive a scenario - if we learned something here, we'll tell the other states that also. Our observers attempted to avoid any leading questions, but they did have option to question people during the course of the exet ise to see if they wers, in fact, knowledgeable - that they weren't going through a rehearsed script - i l and to give them a set of hypotheticals - and in almost every instance, the questioning process indicated that the people were - had expertise and r, The were capable and could handle events varied from the scenario. scenario was, as I understand it, essentially a secret held close by the fewest number of people - so that it could approximate reality as much as possible. Now, these vary fron minor to major and I leave it to you, but l j ii at the State EOC, for example, persons responsible for communications regarding the notification of DOE, for example, in that instance, a staff person was used - a secretary - which is not 1,ad,- to notify the j l "epartment of Energy of the incident at the plant - but this person g l apparently could have used additional training in order to fulfill that assignment - because when she called DOE and she said, "Is this DOE?" - i ? } } and the person said, "What do you mean?" - and the individual was not } aware of whether it was the Department of Education or the Department of rp0680-1515a-56 ij i: ) -* * ~ --=
j 14 i Energy - and the person at the other end of the phone who we work with on the RAC was making it difficult for her as much as possible - and so it's - it's clear there that in given turnover, state jobs in training - there's a lessca learned there - it has to be an on-going kind of thing - t so that the secretarial and clerical personnel who would be used in an l actual incident probably have full understanding of what they are dealing with. Also, laboratories, etc, acronyms used - some time was taken trying l to figure out by this individual what DOE was and that could have been avoided. So it's all right to use scretary and clerical, but use trained j people if not the professionals. Regarding communication linkage, On-S'cene, acknowledgement of information going up to the State EOC was not made as a regular pattern until some time on in the exercise, and there was a concern by the observers at the State EOC that-acknowledgement of 3 tl } information received, messages coming off the teletype, etc, should be made, because there is no way of knowing by the sending group whether the receiving group has, in fact, received, especially if it's not un oral communication - aspecially if it's coming over the machines when they are i printing them out. On the positive side, the message flow was going very ) j well at every point, every Emergency Operating Center. The three part l form for messages - the paper was flowing well and the word was getting around, therefore, the message dissimilation - 1 rp0680-1515a-56 l -,,n v,,-,.,n,---,---- .~.---.-.---...,---,,..,,n,-.,-~

15 TAPE 1. SIDE B Such as - out of channels were put back into channels very quickly by McCullough: messagecontr51 personnel. The exercise demonstrates the plan does work. There were deficiancies in hardware. There were some areas where you could have better equipment and more equipment - and those kinds of ' points will be made in the written critique. Potassium iodide ta'bs, we want to compliment the State of Michigan in that regard. They had these potassium iodide tablets ordered. When you were going to have an exercise you decided apparently to simulate sending down to the plant in Georgia or ( somewhere in the south for these tablets - just as you would in a regular accident - took some risks - and like the real world, the plane couldn't make it and the pills didn't arrive, but the fact is you didn't have it so wired that you didn't deal with reality as it sometimes exists and - and I we want to compliment the State, even though they didn't get here on - on (/ that kind of a situation.

16 some states an EOC that couldn't function because there were so many people underfoot that you couldn't move and you couldn't have yourself heard. I had to wait to get into the EOCs like everybody else and show identification and everything else - and that was the case with all of our observers - and it was impressive - there were - your security was excellent at every point. In terms of day-to-day activity that would be going on during an accident of this type - you know - people with There responsibilities from the agencies would have other things to da. was a simulation of that real world in the sense that they had fires to put out - fed into the exercise accidents to take care of - other crises to deal with. But by and large, these crises were brought up for the police departments only - and in future exercises, we want to compliment you on this - and we want to say you might want to go a step further and 2 provide problems for the other agencies that are participating, not just ~! the police department in their kind of real world for the counties basically. Very knowledgeable people each knew what their point and job They kept the department heads aware and had reasoned informed was. responses on hypotheticals. There was a problem in one of the EOCs that I will get to later relative to the classification system where an individual who was manning the beard didn't have a card for unusual event - and was inclined to use the general emergency classification - he was encouraged not to do so - and he was able to write unusual event down - but a little more training here and there would be helpful. The forms were excellent for message flow. All message forms went to the accident assessment team. They were a=similated and passed the information - now we're talking about Emmet County - they passed the rp0680-1515a-56 ~
17 information on to the Charlevoix information point - as we've already The fact heard - and then information came back from Charlevoix to Emmet. that each participant in the briefing - in the exarcise briefed the other participants periodically - was also impressive. Everyone was being kept up to speed as to what was going on in their own given area of l l I Their agencies that they would ordinarily be working for I responsibility. l They were apprising each other of what the situation were kept apprised. There was true coordination and cooperation. Again, another was. comment, extremely well-put-together exercise. In fact, here's a person who ordinarily does exercises and he said - he had a question, "Does it reflect learning in the areas to be highlighted?" In other words, obviously a lot of training went into it, but the real world is sometimes different from the exercise. Don't be lulled into a sense of security. And also, a Typically, there is a period of disorganization in accidents. Neither of those were particularly period of overtaxing of resources. observed in this exercise. The period of discrganization and overtaxing At least Thct's how good you did - how well you performed. of resources. The Governor's Press that didn't seem to happen at the Charlevoix post. Secretary, himself, was therc - and that was impressive and he seemed to be preparing information from briefing sources himself for press releases, I am informed that relative etc, taking notes with the other reporters. to Emmet County, that they had - and this is another positive in terms cf security - the County turned the utility down - they wouldn't - they refused entrance to take pictures and do promotional kinds of things. So, there were They were there to do business and not other matters. other people excluded who might otherwise have been included, but this was rp0680-1515a-56
18 a business e.:ercise not a promotional matter. Again, that's kind of - you know - an impressive thing to see happen. In terms of the Nuclear Civil Protection planners, as near as they could tell, there couldn't have been a smoother evacuatior.. Probably because so much was simulated. People manning the phones were very knowledgeable and cool head. This j individual thought that - you know - it is hard to - you know - go out there and actually start moving people around, but there are only 400 or 500 people at max that would have been affected - and there was some thinking that maybe at the next exercise, that you might actually have the f sheriff's people do some walk-throughs up to the door and back - and get some estimates of actual time involved. Do more of that sort of thing. If you - realizing you have a continuum between assimilation and reality - the line's got to come somewhere in between - the suggestion is that you i move the line a little closer to the reality side. There was a comment regarding - here's a comment on communication - it looks like the licensee communication plan and the state and local's communication plan were not exactly the same - and there should - the utility will be asked to plug into the state method of dissimilation of communications, because the person at the utility from NRC was very impressed with the way the state and locals were handling the situatien. EPA - was a very smooth operation at the Charlevoix EOC and in the field. In regarding defining the plume, there was a discussion last night of the prearranged readings - which was a good approach to - to the scenario and those - and also doing actual readings for background information; however, our observer of the field teams didn't see TLDs, grass samples or water samples, but then we had only, as it turned out, tha one perscr. observing the one end of the i t i i rp0480-1515a-56
i 19 assessment - but the assumption is made that the other things were happening and we want to discuss a little further what was going on. We understand that there were other teams out making - taking tests, etc, and samples. Because we saw what they were doing in the On-Scene EOC being evaluated and utilized - and plugged in - in terms of information relative-to what protective action should be taken - we saw that and of it. The samples that were observed being taken were correctly done. There was no question about that and it was underlined. Regarding transportation matters - very well organized. Good - good chain of command. Participants were well trained. There was control of access, except a little inadvertent problem I'll get into later. I might as well get into it now - I could pass it up later. That is - Ron, you were at Charlevoix, right? e (iji Yes. l l McCullough: All right. Just want to be sure of the county before I make the comment. At ;?:40 they received notice to evacuate. By 11:00 the Sheriff had directed to place the barricades at 3 or 4 locations relative to the area to be evacuated. At around 12:00 the evacuation was accomplished, but at 12:03 barricades wars put up on the southern and western end of the area to be evacuated.. All points of access should have been barricaded at the same cime. That was the comment there. Emmet County ECC seemed to - here's a positive negative - seemed to overdo their work. They looked - they were looking for more things to do - but that's a very minor point, 1 l the positives - the real critique will be in writing, etc - I have made that point. Thore is a problem - there was some concern by the RAC rp0680-1515a-56 9
20 members of the whole general problem of preplacement and dispatching of We recognize that you don't have 24 hours or 3 days to deal equipment. with an accident - you don't have people observing the handling of an But there is accident over 3 or 4 days - you have it over 4 or 5 hours. an alternative to consider. Preplace the equipment, but trigger by telephone the placement of the personnel so it can be measured - the time it takes them to get from Lansing, for example, out here and into the field still within the confines of an exercise. Or do it in stages possibly, a day ahead do the actual test of time; then stop the clock and take a fractured approach to the exercise in order to get even a better feel for your placement of personnel. Now, as to the actual specifics - those are the general comments of - some of the general comments - most of the general comments of - the Federal officials that I thceght appropriate o f to share with you at this time as opposed to the - the complete list in Communications and warning - this category, State EOC; training writing. of personnel, particularly clerical was - needs to be given ' greater There was emphasis; teletype communications not taken seriously enough. an example of persons with responsibilities to maka contact to Federal agencies regarding laboratories - who knew the laboratories only by acronym - that's - acronyms are a problem anyway in government, particularly the Federal government there's so many alphabet-soup agencies - but some more attempts should be made in those key areas to keep those person who will be making contact informed as to the point I just mentioned. Communicatica system was very good. Information was The number of phones in the passed up the ladder and down the ladder. in State EOC was lacking. Poasibly, this will be self-correcting - but rp0680-1515 a-56 ~ - - -. - -
21 our opinion, based on the exercise, the number of telephones available was inadequate - and scre phones should be provided for. If anything relative to communications, there was not enough information coming back from the State Commat$d Center, the State EOC Center in I.ansing. It was referred to at points, something like a sponge that recuived information, but wasn't very well squeezed giving information back to the - the On-Scene and the locals. These are observations of a general sort. Relative to - oh, by the way, buttressing the phone situation, the various agencies in the State EOC needed to make certain contacts but, given the number of phones you had, some of them experienced a - delays - short delays to get to the l 4 to 6 phones that you had available. So there is a need for more telephone lines. The On-Scene EOC - the communication system functioned efficiently. There was need for a hot line demonstrated, but f,[ communications links were well established. It was pointed out - and this may be made later, but just in case it'isn't - it was felt that the representatives of the utility and the counties could have, during the briefings where you brought everybody else up to date, done a little briefing themselves. That way they would have been assured to be keeping i I their own organizations well informed and receiving information from their I It's kind of a backhanded compliment in the sense that own organization. we were impressed by the briefing procedure, and we thought it should be j extended to the counties, personnel at the On-Scene EOC as well as the t I I j utility personnel. The On-Scene would require expanded communications L capability in an actual accident. I've made the point about phone jacks i It is probable that the trailer - the communications in the ceiling. f trailer you had here - it - there would be a delay - a delay could be i, rp0680-1515a-56 o
22 anticipated in receiving that trailer into an area such as this where an accident occurred - and that should buttress the need for better communications in whatever facility you intend to use as On-Scene. Regarding warning - there was little information on which to base a factual conclusion, because there was little activation of the warning system, and a great deal of simulation. Therefore, a lot of assumptions had to be made relative to the warning - effectiveness of the warning system but, by every measure that we had available to look at, it was assumed that the warning system would be effective - but more comments will follow later. Charle*toix - relative to communication and warning - they had a good working telephone system. The speaker phone to the State On-Scene EOC was very useful. Regarding major announcements - it was clear - reception was clear and it didn't have.to be repeated to everyone. All the people there could get the information right from the speaker phone. Persennel were - had familiarity with the plan and the resources displayed. That was another real advantage from the Federal viewpoint. The people who vare observing this exercise were the people who have reviewed this State's and Counties' plans as well as the State and County plans across th's Midwest where 27% of the nuclear power reactors in America are found. So, we found that to be very helpful - their own expertise in making the review. On the negative side, in terms of Charlevoix, you need to exercise the backup communication system under advarse conditions; is, loss of power and loss of land lines. If there were a loss of power and loss of land lines, that EOC would have a espability to transmit by radio, but it would be only over one marine frequency. So, you might want to investigate in a communications drill in rp0680-1515a-56 I . - - - -. =.
23 the future, an actual loss of power and land lines. We were satisfied that you have alternatives and suggest exercising them at an annual communications exercise - included in that is another point - I belisve Boyne City - a police department 25 minutes away where you could relocate to - and it might be worth trying that relocation in an exercise in the future. Warning - good job on standard procedures of exercise. Good i simulation. It's assumed it will work well. Issuance of warning - to completion of warning was only 12 minutes, certainly well within the 15-minute guidelines bt;t, again, there were certain items simulated. Emmet County - warning and communications - there was some difference of approach and understanding observed in Emmet County between what the Civil Defense Director, the Emergency Services Director, assumed to be how the j I warning would go out and how the Sheriff assumed the warning was going to It was an assumption made by the Civil Defense Director that the go out. Sheriff would take the north / south routes to issue the warning - and that the fire department would take the east / west routes with a farm-by-farm notification approach, residence-by-residence. In fact, the Sheriff said he would make all the notifications with his people freeing the ffre department to do - take care of their own responsibilities; therefore, there was a minor conflict that can be worked out with very little difficulty. There was good provision in this county to alert the boaters - and those without radio systems. The phone links with the On-Scene EOC should be by speaker phone or earphone, however, because it was observed that the linkage of having an individual hold the telephone to 9 his ear for 4 to 5 hours in the exercise was a little bit tiring and you put that over 3 or 4 days and it would be almost impossible - and I see rp0680-1515a-56 i t -~~ - m-
24 the individual smiling and nodding who had to hold that phone to his ear constantly for 5 hours or for 4 days. So, a speaker phone or earplugs, whatever the appropriate headphones would be - would be a good improvement thare. Obviously, you can see we are getting right down to the small points to share all. of this high-pouered expertise that came up to observe the exercise. There was a lack of telephone lines there. You had 4 phones for 16 positions. We understand that you are in process of getting 9 additional phones, which will be very good. It took a couple of hours to hook up the telephones. So the system you get to hook it up would - you know - it will have to be refined a little better I guess. Security was very good on communications. Based on the exercise, recommendation is more telephones, headsets, speaker phones - and the Sheriff really needs a radio capacity to transmit and receive from the EOC. So it would be an 5' improvement if the Sheriff had that capability by radio to transmit and receive from the EOC. Accident assessment - another general category and we'll go through as appropriate the various points exercised in the - yesterday. Accident assessment - I have underlined fine. Only able to observe in a very limited way, but what we saw seemed to be very acceptable. The plume was defined. The areas at risk were defined. The judgments and decisions that had ta be made relative to sheltering and evacuation were based on adequ6ce accident assessment. In other words, you couldn't have made those kinds of decisions without adequate accident assessment. A minor point regarding informacion coming into the State - t.here waa at one point discussion of a release regarding curies per i second. It is - was assunso bat you were talking about noble gases, but no one ever questioned whether tt was or could have been iodine. And if l 1 I rp0%0-1515a-56
25 it was. iodine, that would have been a really serious situation. I'm maybe being tco thorough for you, but you are getting the gist of what was observed. The evacuation - the cattle on stored feed all indicated good accident assessment. Relative to capability of the field assessment teams, they were judged fully capable and they made good use of the protective action guides based on our observation of the decisions made. Protective action guides were used as described in the classification Exercised their option to evacuate between - oh, the State system. exercised its option to evacuate maybe sooner than was necessary in the 1-to 5-Rem area, as opposed to the 5 Ram area. The cbservation is, you played it very conservatively to protect the public. You played it safe and the public was well protected in that regard. Potassium iodide is, as j a precautionary measure, was available although no information on iodine In other words, you made it available even without information on ,[ 1evels. iodine levels, once again, playing it safe, making assumptions on the conservative side. Public information - here we are going to ask the press at a point to share some observations that they may have if they'd The Joint Public Information Center what - Mr Wanger and I like to. observed when we came through to see the briefing process and route to get a sense of the whole operation - our impressions were good. High-level The data was being providcd to the personnel from the State were present. On-Scene EOC had a key PIO press from the counties as we could observe. from the State Police. You had the top State Police Public Information And with the press, you had the top Public Officer at the On-Scene. Information Officer in the Governor's Office. It was reasonable for the Public Information Officer for the Governor to be preparing a press rp0680-1515a-56
26 release and, so far as I could determine, he' was getting information to do same. I'm not sure whether I noticed, I thought I saw a nimeograph machine or a Xerox machine - but in a room for press - if it wasn't there, it should have been provided - some means for thes to run off or for press releases to be run off in sufficient quantities. It would have been helpful, we thought, if the persons giving the briefings had some identification displayed on them. A card that said who they were and where they were from, I think, would have been a helpful touch, but then - you know - this is from a person who is not actually a press person making this observation, but I saw people giving briefings in dark suits, but I didn't know who they were - and I would assume it might help if that person were identified. This seems like a good point to take a swallow of water and ask any of the press that may have been there if they would like to share their observations of how the Joint Public Information Center worked, positives or negatives, so that we can learn from the exercise here. Anyone care to make a comment? Yes, sir? (Inaudib1'e). McCullough: OK. Any other comments? Yes, sir? (Inaudible). McCullough: Yes. The individual who just spoke, Mr Wanger said you should identify yourself so we know roughly who's making the observations. (Inaudible). rp0680-1515a-56
27 i McCullough: Tom Damin from the Detroit News. That the information regarding evacuation routes and farm-related information could have been better or, in fact, may have been, in some instances, nonexistent from that reporter's view. The radio information, information to go out over the radio to the public, left something to be desired. Is that correctly stating what your point was? Yes. If you want to come up here, then everybody can hear it better and I won't McCullough: have to try to attempt to repeat. Please, identify yourself. Ridge: I'm Bill Ridge from WCLX in Boyne City. Had a chance to be here through the whole exercise yesterday and, carrying on what Tom said regarding ff where radio was left, radio was left out in the shady corner somewhere. We would not have been in a position to inform people on a timely basis of 1: There was massive delays in information - when I what was coming down. say massive, scanner traffic, I believe, at 11:50 yesterday, Charlevoix Road Commission - a blockage that involved a simulated accident with a tanker truck and a tourist bus had been cleared - the Sheriff's Department i did not get that word until 12:15. It was after that before the word came l We would have been in here. It was on an alternate evacuation route. telling people to avoid that area in a real situation for 25 minutes when, in fact, they could have used the road. Another thing, overall, and we got into this with the Governor's Office too - as far as the time that is i involved - the lag factor in typing up news releases - it may be fine for It would seem a media that does not need the informacion immediately. that it would be to a much bigger advantage, at least for your local area rp0680-1515a-56
= 28 radio stations, if the information was written in very brief, concise form, handwritten, Xeroxed and handed out so what, at times, was running as a 20- and 25-minute delay could be brought down to perhaps a couple or three minutes. Thore are a couple of overviews the more serious infractions. I think in the briefing situation, a podium such as this, speakers in the ceiling activated would have been a lot better ti.an people from the various agencies going around to this group of reporters, that group of reporters and bringing them updates. It would have been more efficient. I think another thing you're going to have to look at in a real situation is you're going to have two groups here - you're going to have a group here from the immediate local electronic media that feel their function is to get the information, disseminate it to the public, because if the public has the information, there's a lot less chance you're going to run into a lot of problems as far as panic goes, but that information has to be out on a timely basis. The credibility cannot be questioned by the citizenry by the basis they are hearing stuff on their scanners and it's not coming out on the radio until a half hour or so later. Now, as far as your out-of-the-immediate-area media, whether electronic or print, they are here covering it basically as a. news event. They are going to need that same information perhaps in form-prepared news releases, more complete briefings and that, so you are dealing with two areas and I think those two areas have to be defined. Perhaps your immediate area local radio stations should have phone lines available exclusively to their use so they can get on the air with information on a timely basis, rather than perhaps having - I've heard an estimate that if it were a real situation perhaps 500 reporters here - I think there were rp0680-1515a-56 l l _m
29 five phones that were on the media table. A hundred per reporter is slim P ckings. So those are a few of the comments I would have whether or not i the media center itself, the Joint Public Information Center that occupied this room, is for the purpose of the immediate notification and updating the people that live in the immediate area such as was my concern in being here - that's a question that I had several different answers to in asking people. Some people said, "No, this center is for the purpose of the news reporters that would descend on the area." To which I said then, "Well, where should WCLX, WVOI and WJML be so they can get this information?" and everyone told me, " Gee, I don't know" - and I think that's a question that should be answered. Thank you. McCullough: Thank you very much. Are there any other people from the media? I' t rp0680-1515a-56

Multimodal transportation - utilization, highway planes, waterways, etc, was well handled. The question arising was they couldn't verify a It's net to say that notification being given to the airport or the FAA. a notification was not given, just that our observer couldn't verify that a notification was made. We can discuss that further. It may well have been made. It may have been done, but was the air traffic over the area ever stopped? Overall, a very realistic job relative to evacuation methodology, given the limitations; they did a good job in handling Accident simulation relative to f impediments of evacuation routes. - blockages of the highway and development of alternative i development i routes was very good. They had a tree-fall simulation and it was - I ! apparently, the consequence was that the local residents themselves actually reroved the tree - that's how it got out of the highway - and that's probably how it would get out of the highway if it got out of the I rp0680-1515a-56 l ,n,n...~~~ --~
31 highway, during an actual evacuatifon. Overall, the evacuation went very smoothly and was well organized. However, an actual evacuation would have been - however, this evacuation was limited somewhat in scope by the few number of people, the absence of hospitals, the absence of schools, etc, and the recommendation and another exercise in the future in another ~ facility, or here, is to increase the numbers of persons to be evacuated - to actually deal with that a little better. Emmet County Public Works and I the Sheriff should probably get together and make some reviews and coordinate their responsibilities a little finer. That point has already i been made relative to evacuation; it is a minor one. They certainly - l everything that needed to be done was done. There is an accolade to be l l given Emmet County. The observers there felt that the County at their EOC had some of the best visuals and displays ever seen in an Emergency [ Operating Center. Their status board, the resource board, the maps, etc, were absolutely excellent and unparalleled, they were very good. An excellent use of space was also noted in Emmet County. In a very small Emergency Operating Center, they made really excellent use of the physical space they had to work with - which is not to say they don't need better l Provisions for space, but they certainly did make use of what they had. reentry and re-overy oi' the affected area - one comment here, the plant status was still at aler when a reentry - when the people were allowed to ( reenter the area. The Sta te stated general emergency level for a considerable period of tim i after the plant reduced the classification to alert. I guess that's positive, conservative, relying on their own information to some extent, verifying, etc, but the move was then made from a conservative appr'c sch to a much more liberal kind of view - and I rp0680-1515a-56
32 guess the point of the Federal officers is recovery and reentry is more than just taking the barricades down and saying everybody can go back in. The plant status really should be returned to normal. There should - the possibility of any other event occurring that wculd threaten the public and require an evacuation should ha obscure before reentry is allowed, because yeu don't want to then have to get all of the people out again. So in other words, if ther,e was a problem there, the people may have gotten back in too scon, but that might be in line with the State being " Johnny on the spot" and the locals, generally, and right there in making decisions. You were certainly finely tuned, but a little more delay in reentry would have been in order. So a more ordarly procession from evacuation to reentry would have been improvement. The public would have a lot questions relative to reentry that should be considered and addressed, rather than just the barricades are down and you can go in. Questions about whether the-could drink the water, questions about whether they could eat the canned goods. A lot of questions, some of which the gentlemen from the radio station commented on, otherwise which ought to be made. Direction and control - the Star 4 EOC Operations Chief - I made the point already - ran through the scenario in some detail - more detail than he probably should have. His briefing was very thorough; a little bit too much so. The Governor's office representative functioned quite well in determining - in making the decisions that had to be made - and I've already commented on that. There was good coordinetion in the EOC with coordination within the departments and between the departments by the agency representatives. There should have been, however, a consideration and the State should consider notifying the rp0680-1515a-56 -... -. ~. - -, -. -.
33 ~ neighboring states and Canada when they have a problem such as was simulated in the exercise regarding Big Rock. Even though Visconsin, Illinois,. Indiana, Canada, etc, are not within the 50-mile plume; even though their population is not threatened, it probably would be a good idea to notify the neighboring states and put them on standby status because they may have resources that cculd be utilized in this state - and they would be right immediately available - one would assume if the notification were made. My - mobile labs, for example, some states have mobile laboratories and they - just better to have - to do that - was a suggestion. On-Scene - the people there relative to direction control i were very familiar with the plan and their roles and they performed well and they communicated well up and down the ladder. The plant and county representatives, if any - where any criticism at all, could have beau ~ called on more to make reports because you did such a good job otherwise with sharing that information at the EOC, On-Scene. Let's see thay also, the county representatives should have been utilized a little more and they st ould have been provided a work space at or near open lines or In phones to their relative organization, their courty organization. There was general, however, the On-Scene EOC operated very sanothly. elevated agency recognition. Messengers functionei. well just a little aside in travelling to each of the EOCs.

That State EOC was like being inside a drum - and somebody pounding on the outside - you could feel the tension - just some sound absorption materials on the walls and ceiling or some carpeting on the floor - if you are ever going to do that at that EOC, it would probably be j a good idea and others, becatise it will make a number of days there easier to function in - and that's a gratuitous comment. I made the comment about yourself. Ray, perhaps benefiting from a Deputy. Charlevoix - we want to commend Charlevoix County as well as each EOC for having a well-exercised, well-informed leadership. The leadership was there at every. point all along the line - and that's true of Emmet County also. They kept their regular offices notified. Question - was there too much simulation? I think I have eddressed that with asking that in the future i, that we move a little closer to reality and a little further from I simulation; recognizing what you have to actually deal with to have an ^ I exercise in 5 hours. The organized comment in detailed written form will be forthcoming within a few days.

According to a February 22, 1980 document from Consumers Power, no studies have been made concerning the On adequacy of the Big Rock Plant Containment to contain radiation. April 2, 1980, Consumers Power Company admitted that the spent fuel pool must be evaluated as a source of radioactive material with a potential to be released during the accident. Consumers cannot meet minimal safety requirements. They have requested that these safety requirements be deferred. Consumers Power Company wishes to continue operation in an antiquated substandard facility that they may experiment with fuels and planning under a $15 million grant in a low population area.

I wan: to know why this hasn't been done - what has been upon - I know that other nuclear facilities who have had tests have done this and getting it out in included in that information on utility bills, on telephone books and also, I would like to know how the people rp0680-1515a-56 th
38 who are poor, who have no phone, no radio, who are not on any list of being disabled, have been contacted or were included in this exercise or if there's any provision for that - because I see maybe panic there and Thank maybe see them forgotten, I don't know how that must you. Cooke: Do you want to comment or do you want to - kcblldag( The criteria as was correctly read to you does require on a regular bas provision for notification of the public and provision of information for If there's anything we learned at Three Mile Island - is Radiation them. is something that a lot of people do not understand. When you are dealing with the complete unknown and you put into it a lot of human factors, it The State, the makes dealing with an accident even more difficult. counties, the utility, have in their plans provided for provision of this ri As you know, this was an exercise of the State and the information. It was not an exercise actually involving the public in terms of county. However, in order to conform with the criteria, moving personnel, etc. the relevant organizations, State, county, utility, have to have those l materials developed and prepared and available and disseminated - and we are assuming that that is in process and is being done, the criteria was issued in February for use and comment - and it is being used and comment was received on it up through last month to the first of this month - and I if the county or the State wants to comment on what they are actually intending to do here, I think it's appropriate for them to do so if not 1 sufficive to say that that material is to be provided and also to provide public information to the transient population, the tourists that come 9 rp0680-1515a-56 een mm
39 into and out of this area. In terms of institutionalized people, people who may be disabled, it is a very serious concern of the RAC that a provision be made for notification - and one of the comments which is - will be included in our written report, is we did not ses provision for lists identifying these people who are nonambulatory and would need assistance to be removed. Several suggestions have been made by our RAC observers in that regard and have been already presented to the states and counties when the plan itself was reviewed. I'll leave it to them to i answer what they intend to do. But let me also share at this point one other observation that I should have made earlier that might be helpful l when you are preparing your public information for distribution. The State of Ohio, for example, in the public information distribution sheets, have provided in these tabloids, whatever, to be given out in phone books t l ', and distributed in bills and made available generally - and provided a f card, as we've told the State and counties, that the individual citizens can fill out and have returned that will indicate - you know - if they need special assistance - what their needs are if they are not ambulatory - in this case impaired but not institutionalized - and that would provide - make some provision for a list. There are other ways of going about it - and in terms of actual evacuations too, when you are trying to determine whether people are actually out of an area, one l thing - another thing they've done in Ohio that's kind of interesting to us - is they've provided the public a card to place in their window after they've left saying, "We have evacuated," or something to that effect. Then when the Sheriff is going, or whoever is going from door to door; to be sure that the people are out of the area. The time is saved from going rp0680-1515 a-56 __=,_..".__,,,,,,,., ' _.___... " ", _- _ _. _ _,._- -",, --P u - -
40 to a door that's already removed. Some people have suggested that another alternative to try to find that sign at the right time when everything is hurried, is just a provision of hanging a towel on the door knob or over the mail box to save time so that you can move quicker to get those people out who may not have gotten the message because they lack all means of communication, etc. There are a number of refinements possible and that just shares some of them with you. Croke: Good. Thank you, Pat. Is there any further response to that question? If uot, I'd like to thank the RAC Committee for taking part in this. Yes, Earl? j Muma: To answer this response to these handicapped persons, persons without cars to the people in the back, Charlevoix County put into press probably in i February, I think it was, I think we went two or three times requesting the telephone numbers, the handicapped portion of these people, to let us know so ws could get a list of them. Our Sheriff has a list of those people at this time. There was a bus - there were two buses in our parking lot ready to evacuate these people at that time during the exercise. OK. Cooke: Sheriff (Lasiter?) Lasiter: I would like to add something to that. I spent 5 minutes (Inaudible). Cooke: Sheriff, would you identify yourself, please and for the record?

In the meantime, to support what Earl Huma and Sheriff Lasiter has stated about evacuation of That people, a time study in best weather and worst weather was done. rp0680-1515a-56 n_.._
42 information is not only part of our site emergency plan, it is also part of the Charlevoix County plan. And considerations of people, special facilities, such as hospitals and schools, has all been included in that document which has and was provided to Charlevoix County and Emmet County several months ago. Times of evacuation of traffic was also provided. That is in both emergency plans meaning the plant plan and in Charlevoix County. We are trying to be ahead of the requirements that will eventually be ruled by the NRC Commission and I think we are doing that - we are addressing those problems in a very professional proper manner and will be ready at such time as the NRC Commission in Washington does make that rule law.

ANT - EMERGENCY PLAN EXERCISE - JUNE 24, 1980 INTERNAL Conatseomocact DED 80-34 Ct l As Technical Engineer, my location during the exercise was in the Technical Support Center (Shift Supervisor Office). My principal position was dedicated off-site communicator and my responsibility was to provide plant exercise status periodically by phone with specified off-site groups including state and local agencies and off-site CPCo groups including the Emergency Operations Center in Boyne City and the Public Affairs post in Petoskey., Three other i members of the plant staff were assigned to assist me in the overall communica-tions effort when it became obvious that 15 minute updates and logging of communications could not be provided by one person to all the off-site groups involved in the exercise. a are4gr $ f st$ $5 0 Wit!'dYW r kcHef {
