Thus, u'nder the NRC's established regulatory scheme, FEMA findings on the State' Plan' as well as on local emergency response plans, are essential. Indeed, the required FEMA finding is to constitute a " rebuttable presumption on the question of a'dequacy" in any licensing proceeding. 10 C.F.R.
$ 5 0. 4 7 ('a ) ( 2)' . Because the parties are entitled to prepare to suppor t or rebut bhat presumption, it follows logically that such a " finding" regarding,the State Plan must be provided
, prior to the hearing.
7 The NRC Staff has itself recognized the necessity for FEMA findings on the State Plan. Thus, in SER Supp. 14, the Staff stated:
Upon satisfactory completion of the items
, > identified below, the staff will issue a i
favorable finding with respect to emergency preparedness matters for full power operation.
- 4. NRC review of the Federal Emergency Management Agency findings and determinations as to whether State and local emergency plans are adequate and s,_ capable of being implemented (10 C.F.R.
- 50.47 (a) .
! SER Supp. 14, pp. 2-26' (emphasis added) . In that same document, the Staff stated further that the issuance by FEMA of its findings on adequacy of the State and local plans is a prerequisite to the Staff's own final conclusions on the
'I adequacy of Diablo Canyon's offsite preparedness:
After receiving the findings and determinations made by FEMA on State and local emergency 4 -- respons'e plans, and after reviewing the revised site plan from PG&E, a supplement to this report will provide the staff's overall conclusions on
the status of emergency preparedness for the Diablo Canyon Power Plant and related Emergency Planning Zones.
Id. at B-11 (emphasis added). No staff supplement has yet been issued, nor could it have been: issued in light.of the continuing lack of any FEMA " finding" regarding the State Plan.1!
The November 17 FEMA Finding does not make any finding regarding the adequacy of the State _ Plan or whether-it is capable of being implemented, on the contrary, while passing reference is made to the State Plan, the November 17 Finding involves only an evaluation of the County Plan. Thus, FEMA's
" Interim Evaluation" is as follows:
The FEMA Rule _ requires a detailed planning process for the-development and maintenance of off-site emergency response plans. This process includes plan development, training, drills, exercise,'and plan revision culminating in a formal review by FEMA with a regular repetition of this cycle to ensure maintenance of response capability. The San Luis Obispo County Plan is well ur.derway on this process, although has-not yet arrived at the point of a formal review by FEMA. Progress to date has been satisfactory, and unless something goes dramatically awry during the remaining portion of the process required by the FEMA Rule, this evaluation will remain valid. To assist in this evaluation the NRC-FEMA planning. objectives from the FEMA Rule and the FEMA REP-1/NUREG 0654 document are provided here. The information available to FEMA Region IX at this point in time indicates that the planning objectives have, for the~most part, been met. The planning objectives are shown here to highlight the significant remaining corrective actions that need to be accomplished. Most of these actions involve providing hardware or equipment that is needed 1 NUREG-0654 also demonstrates the importance of findings on the State Plan. Indeed, pages 31-79 of that document list no less than 107 evaluation criteria which apply to the State Plan.
I 9
to establish the necessary response capability.
When these corrective actions are accomplished to the satisfaction of FEMA Region IX, and the ,
County plan is completed and submitted to the i State for formal review, we believe with reasonable. assurance that an adequate level of emergency preparedness will exist in San Luis Obispo County. (Emphasis supplied).
I The evaluation then goes on to address briefly the Section 50.47 (b) planning standard with reference to the county plan.
f Thus, FEMA has made no finding regarding the State Plan.
Indeed, the " Finding" attached hereto notes that the " State Plan is tentatively scheduled for formal submission under the FEMA Rule process in July 1982." Further, Mr. Jack Kearns confirmed at his December 7, 1981 deposition that FEMA had not formally reviewed the State Plan. Kearns Tr.-122.
Absent the required FEMA finding regarding the' State Plan, this Board must rule that a finding of adequate preparedness at Diablo Canyon cannot be made at this time.2/
2
- Indeed, until FEMA has issued its required finding regarding the State Plan -- on an interim-or final basis -- a hearing on emergency preparedness at Diablo Canyon is clearly premature. .
Accordingly,-Joint Intervenors respectfully request this l Board to rule as follows: -
l l
/ Joint Intervenors submit that no finding that the State Plan is adequate could be made at this time. In' deed, Mr. Kearns acknowledged that the injestion pathway plan -(a
, State responsibility) has not yet been completed, that plans i for recovery and reentry are inadequate, and that offsite j medical facilities have not been provided. Kearns Tr. 132, 133, 134, 138, 174-75. See also the numerous State plan deficiencies cited by PGandE in its September 2, 1981 Response to Joint Intervenors' First Set of Interrogatories.
1 i
(1) The NRC regulations require a finding by FEMA regarding whether the State Plan is adequate and capable of being implemented; (2) FEMA has issued no finding regarding whether the State Plan is adequate'and capable of being implemented; (3) The absence of a FEMA finding regarding the State Plan precludes as a matter of law any overall finding that emergency preparedness at Diablo Canyon is adequate and in compliance with 10 C.F.R. S50.47; and
/// ,

(4) Joint Intervenors' Motion for Summary Oisposition is granted and that a hearing on emergency preparedness at Diablo Canyon is postponed until the requisite FEMA finding is issued and all parties are able to review the same.

s FEMA REGION IX EVALUATION AND STATUS REPORT'ON STATE AND LOCAL EMER0ENCY ?REPAREDNESS AROUND THE DIASLO CANYON NUCLEAR PorcR PLANT
'T 1
1-I. INTRODUCTION: .
As cited in 44 CFR 350.3d (the proposed FEMA rule), 'JFEMA has entered into I a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the NRC to which it will furnish findings and determina: ions as to whether State and local emergency plans and
- preparedness are adequate and continue to be capable of i=ple=entation." In
! accordance with the schedule shown on the NRC/ FEMA Joint Monthly Report to Congress on Emergency Preparedness, Region IX is submitting this report to the FEMA National Office. The rep' ort is based on an assessment period from April 1980 to the present and focuses on the portions of the planning process out-
! lined in *k a TEMA Rule that have been completed to date. The report concludes with ajN#I((?[ valuation of the current status of each of the planning objec-tives usec oy ::Ma.
i
- II. 3 ASIS FOR EVALUATION
A. Draft Plan Review. In June 1981 the FEMA Region IX staff and its
{ Regional Assistance Co==1ttee (RAC) members reviewed the draft San Luis Obispo i County Nuclear Power Plant Emergency Response Plan (Parts I and II), dated May 1981. This review constituted a part of the developmental assistance by FEMA Region IX and the RAC in accorance with the FEMA Rule. Thi's review followed 1 the planning standards and evaluation criteria in the FEMA REP-1/NURIG 0654 s document. The plan was measured against each criteria ele =ent and judged on
, (_ its acceptability. A nu=cer of ecm=cnts were made to assist the planners in the further development of this plan. It was noted that a large number of the evaluatica criteria ele =ents were to be addressed in the Standing-Operating Procedures (50P's) and other parts of the plan which were not developed at that time. -
- 3. Training and Drills. The State of California Of fice of' Emergency Services, in conjunction with FEMA, developed and conducted a s'eries of training and drills during June, July, and August of 1981'. These activities were based in part on the concepts of exercises and drills set forth in the f
FEMA REP-1/NURIG 0656 docusent. This previded training for.the people I
involved in emergency response and allowed for further development of plans and SOP's in preparation for the full exercise. (See attach =ent, Califolrnia OES Letter, June 5, 1981.)
C. Exercise. The County revised their plan and developed SOP's based on
- the FEMA draft plan review co==ents and their training and drill experience so
- that hey could be further tested in the exercise. On August 19, 1981, FEMA
- . Region IX conducted an evaluation of the of f-site capabilities of the County 1 and State te respond to a nuclear emergency at Diablo Canyon. The evaluation, preparation, conduct, and subsequent critique process followed the guidance j previded by the FEMA National program office.

,s .The evaluation conclusion was that due to the planning effort and participation by all those involved, the exercise succeeded in its three basic goals. First, it denonstrated a capability to respond to a developing e=er-gency situation; second, it served as an excellent training device;'and third, it highlighted potential proble= areas to be corrected. An initial corrective action schedule that responds to the FEMA " Exercise Evafuation Findings" was developed through joint consultation a=ong the County Of fice of E=ergency Services, State Of fice of E=ergency Services, FEMA, NRC, and Pacific Gas and Electric Co=pany representatives. This correc:ive action schedule addresses each finding and describes how and when it will be corrected. FEMA Region IX expects to receive the co=pleted version of this schedule by'=id-November 1981.
D. Status of the County Plan. The " San Luis Obispo County Nuclear Power Plan: E=crgency Response Plan" has undergone considerable develop =en:
since the FEMA review of the draft plan in June 1981. The plan was =odified based on those draft review coc=ents, and 50?'s were developed and tried during the training and drills in preparation for the exercise. As a result of the August 19 exercise, the plan was =odified based on the FEMA evaluation findings and the experience of the County staff during that exercise. The plan will shortly be ready for review and co==ent at the public =eeting scheduled for Nove=ber 24, 1981. This will also satisfy the public =eeting recuired by the FEMA Rule. 1: is expected tha: the County plan will be sub-
=itted to the State Of fice of E=ergency Services by January 1981 for for=al review by the State and Federal govern =ent.
h' The State'of California Nuclear Power
~
5 E. Status cf the State Plan.
Plan: E=ergency Response Plan, in effect since 1975, has gone through a' number of revisions, the lates: being a revision of :he ad=inistrative portion of the plan in early 1981. The 1973 revision received NRC concurrence in. August 1978 based on the MRC criteria existing at that ti=e. FEMA Region IX provided develop = ental assistance in March 1931 by review of this revised draf t of the ad=inistrative plan against the new criteria. Since that time the ad=; ;e--a-tive plan has been revised and the State agency SOP's are w l'o3=e~nb It is expected that the State will fully exercise its plans D .' 1 isc..
The State plan is tentatively scheduled for for=al sub=ission under the FEMA Rule process in July 1982.
III. INTERIM EVALUATION:
The FEMA Rule requires a detailed planning process for the development and =aintenance of of f-site e=ergency response plans. This process includes plan develop =en:, training, drills, exercise, and plan revision culminating in a fornal review by FEMA with a regular ranetition of this evele en ansure pygg

([ gses e-;......
p.nydyMAs pr ogr es s to date has been satisfac:ory, and unless crc =a;;catly awry during the re=aining portion of the process required by the FEMA Rule, this evaluation will re=ain valid. To assist in
. -3
's this evaluation the NRC-FEMA planning objectives fro = the FEMA Rule and the FEMA REP-1/NURIG 0654 docu=ent are provided here. The infor=ation available to FEMA Region IX at this point in time indicates that the pl anning 'ob j ec tiv e s have, for the cost part, been =et. The planning objectives are shown here to highlight the significant re=aining corrective actions that need to be accc=-
plished. Most of these actions involve providing hardware or equip =ent that is needed to establish the necessary response capability. 'a' hen these correc-tive actions are accomplished to the satisfacticn of FEMA Region IX, and the County plan is ce=pleted and submitted to the State for for=al review, we believe with teasonable assurance that an adequate level of e=ergency prepared-ness will exist in San Luis Obispo County.
IV. 2LANNING OBJECTIVES: .
A. Primary responsibilities for emergency response by the nuclear facility licensee, and by State and local organizations within the E=ergency Planning Zones have been assigned, the emergency responsibilities of the various supporting organi:ations have been specifically established, and each principal response organization has staff to respond and to aug=ent its initial response on a continuous basis.
Corrective Action. None
- 3. Not applicable.
(~, C. Arrange =ents for requesting and effectively using assistance resources have been made, arrange cnts to acco==odate State and local staff at .the licensee's near-site Er.ergency Operations Facility have been =ade, and other crganizations capable of aug=enting the planned response have been identified.
Cerrective Action. None D. A standard e=ergency classification and ' action level sche =e whose bases include f atility syste= and ef fluent parameters is in use by the nuclear facility licensee, and State and local response plans call for reliance on infor=ation provided by facility licensees for deter =inations of =ini=um initial offsite response =easures.
Corrective Action. None E. Procedures have been established for notification, by the licensee, of State and local response organizations and for notification of e=ergency personnel by all response organizations; and content of initial and followup
=essages to response organizations and the public have been established; and
=eans to provide early notification and clear instruction to the pcpulace within the plume exposure pathway E=ergency Planning Zcne have been established.
e!
4 Corrective Action:
~
s, 1. The technical specifications for the design and =aintenance of i~ the proposed warning syste= should be suh=itted for preliminary review and approval by FEMA.
- 2. Pagers should be previded for alerting key County response personnel.
- 3. A reliable co==unications link consisting of both a two-way radio '
capability and a dedicated telephone line cust be established between the EOC and the two E=ergency 3roadcast System stations. Co==unications lines to both radio station KVIC and radio , station KSLY are required in order to provide full 24-hour coverage. Also, an agreement between the two radio stations and San Luis Obispo County regarding disse =ination of e=ergency instructions to the public needs to be for=ulated.
- 4. The public warning syste= cust be co=pleted and operational in accordance with the NRC established deadline.
F. Provisions exist for pro =pt ce==unications a=ong principal response organizations, to emergency personnel and to the public.
Corrective Action:
The County radiological monitoring tea = =e=bers should be supplied
., with radios to establish a direct co==unications_ link to the County Unified
(' Dose Assess =ent Center Supervisor. - - -
t G. Infor ation is made available to the public on a period basis on how they would be notified and what their initial actions should be in an e=ergency (e.g. listening to a local broadcast station and re=aining indoors') che principal points of contact with the news =edia for disse =ination of infor=a-tion during an e=ergency (including physical location or locations) are estab-lished in advance; and procedures for coordinated dissemination of infor=ation l to the public are established.
