In accordance with the CPSES Emergency Plan and procedures, an emergency i

0 Emergency related information has been placed in selected telephone directories in use within the EPZ.

TXX 90151 April 17, 1990 Page 2 of 2 To address the special facilities, a letter was sent to the forty-three (43) facilities presently identified within the EPZ.
This letter addressed emergency planning at CPSES and included a return postage-paid postcard asking the facility operator if any special planning was needed. Available to the county judge in each of the Emergency Operations Centers, are maps indicating the location of each of the special facilities, the expected _ seasonal population for each facility as well as a phone number in the event of an emergency.
The expected seasonal po)ulation numbers are based on historical data gathered by local planners from tiose special facilities.
The facility operators have been provided with information on how to secure assistance from local governments in the event of an emergency.
During an emergency, Emergency Broadcast System (EBS) messages sent by the County Judges provide, by Emergency Response Zone (determined by geographical boundaries), the evacuation routes and the specific evacuation relocation centers for the public.
In addition, affected special facilities are contacted regarding the evacuation and, if needed, transportation and other requirements.
TU Electric has also purchased broadcast time on a local radio station. When needed, the airtime will be used to provide information to the public on actions to be taken in the event of an emergency at CPSES.
In summary, the CPSES Emergency Plan goes well beyond relying on a local mailing to provide instructions and assistance to the public in the unlikely eveht of a serious accident at CPSES.
Sincerely.
William J. Ca 11, Jr.
