EMERGENCY PUBLIC INFORMATION 1.
REFERENCES:
a.
Annex Q (State Radiological Emergency Plan (REP)) of State Disaster Assistance Plan, b.
' Appendix Q-1 (Calvert Cliffs) and Appendix Q-2 (Peach Bottom) to above-cited Annex.
2.
BACKGROUND:
a.
Accidents occurring at any of the following fixed commercial nuclear reactor plants in and around Maryland could affect Maryland jurisdictions directly or indirectly:
(1)
Calvert Cliffs Nuclear Power Plant (CCNPP)
Calvert County, Maryland (2)
Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station (PBAPS)
Approximately 3 miles North of Harford County line on Susquehanna River (3)
Salem Nuclear Power Plant New Jersey (across New Castle County, Delaware on east side of Delaware River)
(4)
Three Mile Island Nuclear Power Plant (TMI)
Three Mile Island, Pennsylvania (5)
North Anna Nuclear Power Plant-North Anna, Virginia (6)
Limerick Generating Station Montgomery County, Pennsylvania b.
If the worst possible situation were to occur at any of these plants, that is, a partial or complete meltdown, it could result in the release or projected release of radioactiv'e gases and/or materials that may require certain " Protective Actions" to be ordered for Maryland by the Covernor, The Secretary of the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DHMH) or the head of each Plume Zone County Government. Protective actions include:
(a) take shelter, (b) evacuation, (c) access control, and (d) food, water, milk and livestock feed control.
" Parallel Actions",
which take place when any of the protective actions are implemented, are (a) emergency medical services, (b) ' radiation exposure control, (c) law enforcement and crime prevention, (d) mass care and (e) reentry.
Critical zones are:
(1)
The lO-mile radius " Plume" zone, within which certain protective and parallel actions might be required in,
certain areas of the zone.
(2)
The 50-mile radius " Ingestion" zone wherein food, milk, livestock feed and drinking water might have to be i
protected or their use curtailed temporarily in order to protect people from long-range effects'of low-level abnormal radiation. Counties adjacent to plume zone counties may also be required to provide evacuation support.
The ' State REP (Annex Q) provides for accident assessment by the State DHMH, supported by each plume zone county and by the Federal Department of Energy (DOE), when requested. This Plan also adopts the Federal Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Guides which outline what actions can or 'should be.
taken when radiation to the whole body or thyroid reaches or may probably reach certain levels.
3.
SITUATION:
It is essential that the public throughout the State be provided with timely, accurate, and easily understood information on the situation and instructions on any protective actions to be taken. The news media plays a leading role in the dissemination of emergency public information and instructions..
I since all-news media (local, regional, and national) will have access to four levels of information (private, Federal, State and local) and there are subdivisions at each level, it is essential that some means be developed to insure consistency. This will minimize the possibility of conflicting statements-being issued which would create confusion and lack of confidence on the part of the public. A schematic of information sources that could be expected to be tapped constantly by the media for information is at' TAB E.
~
4.
PURPOSE:
The purpose of these procedures is to prescribe th'e detailed actions to be taken and coordinated in order to provide timely, accurate, easily understood and consistent. information to the public through all news media channels.
3 5.
SCOPE:

_2_
(3) Site Emergency - State / local EOCs fully activated (News Media Center activated)
(4) General Emergency - same as for site emergency.
b.
On-site public information is the responsibility of the nuclear reactor operator.
Information pertaining to all off-site matters is the responsibility of local (for local matters) and. State (for statewide matters) governments.

TAB D MESSAGE PRIORITY OR PRE,2DENCE FOR TRANSMISSION MCD RADIO / TELETYPE SYSTEM The assignment of precedence to a message is the responsibility of the mIessage originator and is determined by the subject matter of the text and the time factor involved.
The following applies to REP messages:
- ALERTING PRIORITY DESCRIPTION TAB COLOR SIGNIFICANCE O
Operational Red Used for natural, man-made or Immediate nuclear attack. Is the highest priority for nonnuclear attack messages and reserved for those of an urgent nature. For nuclear attack messages, used for amplifying
" emergency" messages.
P Priority Yellow The highest precedence that may be assigned to administrative messages, and should be used only when immediate delivery is required.
R Routine Green For messages requiring expeditious handling.
(*) Alerting tab color refers to small, colored tabs affixed to the first copy of any incoming or outgoing message in order to provide a ready means of calling attention to the relative importance of a message. The tabs are tolm used only by the MEM&CDA in message handling.
Extreme care must be exercised to assure that messages are not assigned a priority above that which is necessary, as the special handling it requires may delay the transmission of more important messages. The precedence should be bcsed strictly on the subject matter of the text and the time factor involved.
