PURPOSE

% L The purpose of this testimony is to establish that LILCO has provided Central Suffolk Hospital as the primary fa-cility for treatment of contaminated, injured individuals, and the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania (HUP) as a backup hospital for definitive care, in compliance with NUREG-0654 IV.L, 10 C.F.R. S 50.47(b)(12), and 10 C.F.R. 5 50, Appendix E, Items IV.E.5 through 7. Althcugh it is unlikely that Central Suffolk would be evacuated in an emergency, other hospitals could be used to care for contaminated injured indi-viduals. Because of the nature of the medical and emergency 8210150178 821012 PDR ADOCK 05000322 PDR 7

s care provided by Central Suffolk, it is unnecessary to hurry individuals to Philadelphia. HUP's faci,lities are uniquely suited to provide long-term care to a radiation exposed pa-tient.

TESTIMONY OF ROGER E. LINNEMANN AND MICHAEL L. MIELE FOR THE LONG ISLAND LIGHTING COMPANY ON PHASE I EMERGENCY PLANNING CONTENTION 2(A) --

ADEQUATE MEDICAL SERVICES l Q1. Please state your names and business addresses.

A1. My name is Roger E. Linnemann; my address is Radiation Management Corporation (RMC), 3508 Market Street, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, 19104.

I l

l My name is Michael L. Miele; my address is Shoreham Nuclear Power Station, Post Office Box 628, Wading River, New York, 11792.

Q2. Please state your professional qualifications.

A2. [Linnemann] I am Vice-Chairman and President of Medical Services of Radiation Management Corporation (RMC). My professional qualifications are attached to

this testimony (Attachment 2(A)-1). My familiarity

.. with the issues surrounding medical services stems from my years of experience in the United States Army Medical Corps in evaluating plans and procedures for

, handling large numbers of contaminated injured individ-uals on the battlefield; my years of training medical and hospital personnel in the United States $rmy; my involvement in dealing with offsite contamination at Palomaris, Spain and at Three Mile Island; and my work with Radiation Management Corporation, developing medi-cal plans and designing comprehensive medical services for nuclear reactors.

[Miele] I am the Health Physics Engineer for the Shoreham Nuclear Power Station. My professinal quali-fications are attached to this testimony (Attachment 2(A)-2). My familiarity with the issues surrounding medical services stems from my training and work as a Health Physics Engineer, and from my previous position  :

as the Vice-Chairman 6C the Emergency Planning Task Force. In that position, I took a lead role in the se-lection of primary and backup medical services, and had a continuing involvement in the training, drills, faci-lities, and equipment of these medical services.

l Q3. Are you familiar with Suffolk County Contention EP 2(A)? ,

A3. [Linnemann, Miele] Yes.

Q4. What does that contention say?

A4. [Linnemann, Miele] Suffolk County Contention,.2(A) con-tains a preamble and two subparts, as follows:

A. Suffolk County contends that LILCO, by designating Central Suffolk Hospital as the primary medical facility to treat contaminated injured individuals (Plan at 6-16), and further by designating University Hospital in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania for backup medical treat-ment (Plan at 6-16) has failed to pro-vide adequate medical services for con-taminated injured individuals as re-quired by 10 C.F.R. S 50.47(b)(12), 10 C.F.R. Part 50, Appendix E, Items IV.E.5-7, and NUREG-0654 Items K and L for the following reasons:

1. Central Suffolk Hospital may itself become subject to radiolo-gical exposure and/or evacuation given its location approximately ten miles from the Shoreham Site (Plan at 6-16).
2. University Hospital is too distant to provide timely treatment of contaminated individuals.

QS. What seems to be the essence of this contention?

AS. [Linnemann, Miele] In 2(A)(1), the County appears to be contending that Central Suffolk Hospital is inade-quate for use during an emergency because it is within >

the emergency planning zone and therefore may be

- evacuated. In EP 2(A)(2), the C_ounty appears to be contending that, because of the University of Pennsylvania Hospital's distance from Shoreham, LILCO will be unable to provide for timely treatment at that hospital.

Q6. Are you familiar with the regulatory requirements and guidelines cited in 2(A)?

A6. [Linneman and Miele] Yes.

Q7. What do those regulations and guidelines say?

( A7. [Linneman, Miele] Title 10 C.F.R. S 50.47(b)(12) pro-vides:

Arrangements are made for medical ser-vices for contaminated injured individ-i uals.

Title 10 C.F.R. Part 50, Appendix E, Items IV.E.5 through 7 provide:

( 5. Arrangments for the services of physicians and other medical per-sonnel qualified to handle radia-tion emergencies on site;

6. Arrangements fcr transportation of contaminated injured individuals from the site to specifically identified treatment facilities outside the site boundary; and
7. Arrangements for treatment of in-dividuals injured in support of

licensed activities en the site at treatment facilities outside the site boundary. .

NUREG-0654 Items K and L provide:

K. Means for controlling radiological exposures in an' emergency are established for emergency workers.

The means for controlling radiolo-gical exposure shall include expo.

sure guidelines consistent with EPA emergency workers and lifesav-ing activity protective action guides.

L. Arrangments are made for medical services for contaminated injured i individuals.

NUREG-0654, Items K and L, contain many subparts, none of which have been cited by the County in the conten-tion. In addition, Item K deals with radiological ex-posures for emergency workers, and therefore is not ap-propriately cited in this contention.

Q8. With regard to contention EP 2(A)(1), what is the pri-mary facility for treatment of contaminated injured in-dividuals from Shoreham?

A8. [Miele] Central Suffolk Hospital, located approxi-mately 10 miles from Shoreham, is the primary facility for treatment of contaminated injured individuals.

Q9. Has LILCO obtained a written agreement from Central Suffolk regarding treatment of contaminated injured individuale?

A9. [Miele] Yes. The agreement with Central Suffolk to

- receive and treat injured persons who are contaminated with radioactive materials is included in the Shoreham Emergency Plan at Appendix B (Attachment 2(A)-3 to this testimony).

QlO. What other arrangments have been made for med.ical sup-port?

A10. [Linnemann] Backup medical servi s, support, and de-finitive care will be provided by Radiation Management Corporation (RMC) in its affiliat.or with the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania in 2hiladelphia',

Pennsylvania.

Qll. ,

Are there written agreements to this offect?

All. [Miele] Yes. A copy of the letter o' agreement be-tween RMC and Long Island Lighting Company is found at Appendix B of the Shoreham Emergency. Plan (Attachment 2(A)-4 to this testimony).

Q12. Do the regulatory requirements and guidelines cited by the County, or any other requirements or guidelines, require LILCO to have a hospital located outside the ten-mile emergency planning zone for emergency treat-ment and decontamination?

A12. [Linnemann, Miele] No.

Q13. What type of patients would be handled at Central Suffolk Hospital?

A13. [Linnemann, Miele) The primary purpose of Central Suffolk Hospital is to handle treatment of seriously ill or injured empt.cyees of Shoreham Nuclear Iower Station. LILCO has ensured that this primary responsi-bility can be carried out, even for injured employees with radioactive contamination.

Q14. What is radioactive contamination?

i A14. [Linnemann, Miele] Radioactive contamination is the presence c f loose radioactive materials on a person's body.

Q15. Why do you think it is important to have a hospital close by for the treatment of contaminated injured in-dividuals?

A15. [Linnemann, Miele] It is important because good medi-

~

cal practice and planning dictate that a seriously ill -

or injured patient should be taken to the closest j hospital capable of providing the necessary treatment.

1 In the case of Shoreham, that hospital is Central l Suffolk Hospital.

1 n

Q16. What does experience show is the most likely use for the local support hospital? ,

A16. [Linnemann] Experience shows that any injury involving i

a contaminated individual would occur outside of an emergency situation at the plant. In my 14 years of medical services invol? ring experience with some twenty i

nuclear power plant sites around the country, contamin-ated injured individuals have been sent to the local hospitals such as Central Suffolk Hospital on 17 i

occasions. In each instapce, the patient was sent to the hospital bec1use he was sericusly injured or ill.

1 Contamination was at nuisance levels; none of these injuries occurred during an emergency at the site. In all but two instances, only one individual was in-volved; in two instances, two individuals were in-volved. -

The most likely use of Central Suffolk's facilities for i

contaminated injured would be during the course of nor-mal work, when, for example, a person working in the i

plant might suffer a broken leg and be contaminated as well. As with any hospital emergency facility, effec- [

  • i tive use of Central Suffolk by Shoreham requires a i hospital that is close by and easily accessible. {

Q17. Do you anticipate that Central Suffolk Hospital would

_. be evacuated? ,

A17. (Linnemann, Miele] No.

Q18. What is your basis for this opinien?

A18. (Linnemann, Miele] First, it is highly unlikely that enough radiation could be released in a short enough time at the distance of Central Suffolk Hospital to constitute a threat to life. Second, evacuation of acute care hospitals is not something to be taken ligh-tly, because of the increased risk to seriously ill pa-tients in, for example, intensive care, surgery, and post-op. To accept this risk, it would have to be counter-balanced by extremely high levels of radiation that would equally threaten life, before one would rec-i s

ommend evacuation of an acute care hospital. As stated above, it is highly unlikely that those levels of radiation would ever reach Central Suffolk Hospital, given its location in relation to Shoreham.

Q19. In the event Central Suffolk Hospital is unavailable, for whatever reason, how would contaminated injured in-dividuals be treated? -

A19. (Linnemann, Miele] If Central Suffolk Hospital is un-available, injured individuals will be sent to the l

1 nearest available hospital capable of rendering

-- emergency care for the nature of the illness or injury.

Q20. What is the general industry practice in fulfilling NUREG-0654 guidelines on setting up local hospitals to treat contaminated injured individuals?

A20. [Linnemann] Thepracticeintheindustryis[toselect a hospital near the plant and capable of providing the required services.

Q21. You said that in EP 2(A)(2), the County contends that Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania (HUP) is too distant from Shoreham to provide fEimely treatment of

! individuals. Is University Hospital the backup hospi-tal for Shoreham Nuclear Power Station?

A21. [Miele] Yes.

Q22. What is the difference between the treatment provided by HUP and Central Suffolk?

A22. [Linnemann, Miele] Central Suffolk Hospital serves as the local support hospital for contaminated injured victims, providing decontamination, lifesaving activi-ties and patient stabilization. In the event that a *

victim requires more definitive evaluation and treat-ment (long-term care), the individual may be sent to HUP.

,..__..._.__.,-_,~_-,..-,_,m - _ _ _ _

Q23. What type of patient do you anticipate treating at HUP?

~

A23. [Linnemann] The patient that would be sent to HUP would be one with a severe total or partial body radia-tion exposure, both of which cause the patient to deve-lop a serious clinical course within several days, or more likely, weeks. -

Q24. How soon do you think such a patient should be sent to HUP?

A24. [Linnemann) Because radiation injury unfolds over time, the patient's traumatic injury or illness can be treated and stabilized at Central Suffolk Hospital. ,

Over the course of those next few days, medical person-nel at Central Suffolk Hospital, in conjunction with consultants from RMC, perform an initial evaluation of the patient's total exposure. Following this evalua-tion, a decision is made whether the patient should be transferred to HUP. Should the total dose require it, the patient is transported in a comfortable and unhur-ried fashion.

In conjunction with Radiation Management Corporation (RMC), HUP has the capability to evaluate the patient's level of radiation exposure, and the facilities to treat the anticipated clinical course of the radiation L

i exposure, such as isolation facilities, white cell

.- transfusion, bone marrow transpl_ ants, chromosome ana-lysis, etc.

Q25. How will persons needing medical attention at HUP be transported to the hospital?

A25. [Linnemann) Patientswillbetransportedby[airor surface transportation, whichever is most appropriate.

Q26. Please summarize your testimony.

A26. LILCO has provided Central Suffolk Hospital as the pri-mary facility for treatment of contaminated, injured individuals, and the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania (HUF) as a backup hospital for definitive care, in compliance with NUREG-0654 IV.L, 10 C.F.R. $

50.47(b)(12), and 10 C.F.R. 9 50, Appendix E, Items IV.E.5 through 7. Although it is unlikely that Central Suffolk would be evacuated in an emergency, other hospitals could be used to care for contaminated injured individuals. Because of the nature of the med-ical and emergency care provided by Central Suffolk, it is unnecessary to hurry individuals to Philadelphia.

HUP's facilities are uniquely suited to provide long- )

i term care to a radiation exposed patient.
