(CPSES) l CASE'S ANSWER TO APPLICANTS' MOTION FOR

SUMMARY

DISPOSITION OF INTERVENOR'S CONTENTION 22 -

REGARDING EMERGENCY PLANNING Pursuant to 10 CFR 2.749, CASE (Citizens Association for Sound Energy),

s Intervenor herein, hereby files this, its Answer to Applicants' Motion for Summary Disposition of Intervenor's Contention 22 Regarding Emergency Planning.

A3 shall be. demonstrated herein, there are genuine issues of material fact to be heard regarding this contention. CASE therefore urges that the Board in these

, proceedings deny Applicants Motion for Summary Disposition and that hearings be l- ' held on this Contention.

Attached hereto is a concise Answer to Applicants' Statement of Material -

Facts Not Genuinely in Issue. As stated in that Answer and detailed in the following, there are indeed many issues which need to be addressed in hearings prior' to the granting of an operating license for the Comanche Peak facility.

l As set f6rth with specificity herein, there are many deficiencies in the CPSES Emergency Plan, the Texas State Plan, and the Somervell and Hood Counties -

Plans which must be dealt with prior to Applicants' being granted an operating 1

l license or a low-power test license for CPSES.

Applicants, in their argument on page 4 of their Motion, state:

"The intervenor must be required to oppose this motion and the supporting affidavits with demonstrations by affidavits of competent and qualified affiants that a genuine issue exists as to a material fact. Failing such  ;

demonstrations by the intervenor, the Board should ' render the decision -

sought . . . .' 10 C.F.R. S2.749(d); Order (Granting Sumary Disposition nf Contentions 2 and 7), supra,15 NRC at 595, Mere allegations or state-ments of concern by the intervenor's representative are insufficent to preclude summary disposition."

They have again thus set forth an old bone of centention between Applicants and the Board -- whether or not it is required that an Intervenor have expert .

witnesses in order to prevent sumary disposition. As the Board is well aware, CASE is not represented by an attorney in these proceedings. However, it is our belief that the Board acted correctly when they denied the NRC Staff's -

Motion for Sumary Disposition of Contention 25 (on Financial Qualifications) }

as well as Applicants' Motion for Summary Disposition of Contention 5 (on QA/QC and construction practices at CPSES). Further, the regulations set forth in

f 10 CFR 2.749 are not as narrow as Applicants would have one belie've; included

. r in the wording of that regulation are the following statements: .

...a party opposing the motion may not rest upon the mere allegations or denials of his answer; his answer by affidavits or as othemise provided in this section must set forth specific facts showing that there is a genuine issue of fact." (Emphasis added.) -- 2.749(b) ,

"Should it appear from the affidavits of a party opposing the motion that he cannot, for reasons stated, present by affidavit facts essential to justify.

his opposition, the presiding officer may refuse the application for sumary y decision or may order a continuance to pennit affidavits to be obtained or make such other order as is appropriate..." (Emphasis added.) -- 2.749(c)  ?

)

"The presiding officer shall render the decision sought if the filings in the proceeding, depositions, answers to interrogatories, and admissions on file, together with the statements of the parties and the affidavits,

- if any, show that there is no genuine issue as to any material fact and that the moving party is entitied to a decision as a matter of law..."

(Emphasis added.) -- 2.749(d)

It should further be pointed out that the instance cited by Applicants whereby Sumary Disposition was granted on Contentions 2 and 7 was a far different matter than the one now at issue with Contention 22, in that CFUR (the Intervenor

[ *

.(

}

i. .  ;.

sponsoring Contentions 2 and 7) was in the process of withdrawing from these j proceedings and did not file an answer to the Motion for Sumary Disposition I regarding Contentions 2 and 7. Applicants would have the Board believe that (

only if an Intervenor has expert witnesses to testify regarding specific issues should such Intervenor be allowed to participate as a party in these proceedings.

This is clearly not supported by any NRC regulation, and there are clear pmcedents .

for allowing an Intervenor to make its case by pointing out deficiencies in Applicants' case.

CASE had initially planned to have an expert witness to testify regarding .

emergency planning, but we were unable to make arrangements for the Septenber j hearings due to the particular time frame within which we are working and prior comitments of potential witnesses. However, we believe that there are sufficient i

. . deficiencies in Applicants', State, and Counties' Emergency Plans to preclude Applicants' receiving an operating or low-power test license without those deficiencies being cured. F'urther, we are struck by the similarities between l

some of the deficiencies in the CPSES plan and those cited in the Zintner case

~

, where it was stated:

- "The state of offsite emergency preparedness 'does not provide reasonable assurance that adequate protective measures can and will be taken in the l -

event of a radiological emergency." (Conclusions of Law, item (6), Zihuner )

The Board should not allow Applicants to obtain an operating license based on vague, unsupported assurances that everything will magically work out all right should ,there be an accident at the Comanche Peak plant.

Further, this contention deals with an emergency plan which is supposed to protect the public health and safety in the event of an accident at Comanche Peak. This issue is too important to be decided other than in a public hearing, with the lone remaining Intervenor afforded the opportunity to pursue the deficiencies in the Comanche Peak emergency planning and help issure that the health and safety of the public is protected.

GENERAL:

One of CASE's primary and continuing concerns has been the use of " paper people" -- people who exist only on paper and wi.ll not be there physically -

when they are needed. This is still a primary concern, and there is nothing in the Applicants' current emergency planning (including th? State and County

~'

Plans) to alleviate this concern. Although obviously it is not necessary to identify each person by name, CASE contends that such individuals should be identified sufficiently to assure that there will indeed be someone available p

m physically and not just on paper.

Another continuing concern is that' Applicants have missed one of the basic concepts of the emergency planning as explained in NUREG-0654, Rev.1. November

. 1980 (hereinafter referred to as NUREG-0654):

"NRC and FEMA have deliberately consolidated in this document guidance intended for use by State and local governments and that intended to guide i the emergency planning and preparedness activities of NRC licensees because .

of a shared belief that an integrated approach to the development of response

  • plans to radiological hazards is most likely to provide the best protection

.of the health and safety of the public. NRC and FEMA recognize that plans -

of licensees, State and local governments should not be developed in a vacuum or in isolation from one another. Should an accident occur, the public can be best protected when the response by all parties is fully integrated. -

Each party involved must have a clear understanding of what the overall level of preparedness must be and what role it will play in the event of a nuclear accident. This understanding can be achieved best if there is an integrated development and evaluation of plans. There must also be an acceptance by the parties and a clear recognition of the responsibility they share _ for safeguarding public health and safety." (Emphases added.)

-- Pages 23 and 24, F. Integrated Guidance and Criteria V -

D i V

As part of CASE's continuing concern regarding the use of " paper people,"

there is the aspect of how and by whum the costs associated with proper imple-mentation of all parties involved in emergency planning. NUREG-0654 addresses this (page 25, G. Funding and Technical Assistance):

"While funding and technical assistance are not addressed in this document, it is a subject which must be discussed between the individual nuclear l

utilities and the involved State and local governments who must prepare l emergency plans to support the nuclear facilities. The nuclear utility may have an incentive based on its own self interest as well as its re- '

sponsibility to provide electric power, to assist in providing manpower, items of equipment, or other resources that the State and local governments may need but are themselves unable to provide. The Federal Regional Assistance. .

Committees, now under the chairmanship of FEMA, .will play an increasing role in the development of these plans. Training programs for State and local

- officials fonnerly sponsored by NRC and now sponsored by FEMA will continue without interruption."

It is not clear in the Emergency Plans that such discussions regarding

! funding and technical assistance have taken place between the various parties involved, or that set policies and procedures are in place to assure that such funding and technical assistance will be available on a continuing basis. An additional concern is that, with the recent cuts in budgets and manpower, FEMA will be unable to take as large a role as was previously anticipated. This should l

be discussed and evaluated in detail in the Emergency Plans.

I l

NUREG-0654 states (Pages 29, J. Form and Content of Plans): .

i .

l- "The plan should make clear what is to be done in an emergency, how it l

is to be done and by whom."

One of the specific concerns of CASE is in regards to the fact that there is no definitive planning guide specifying Federal response. However, NUREG-0654

(

l l states:

( '

"Each State and licensee shall make provisions for incorporating the Federal l

l response capability into its operation plan..."

s .;  :

Another major area of concern is that adequate attention has rat been given to the fact that there are two major metropolitan ci!nters near the Comanche .

\ t Peak site. NUREG-0654 states: .'

" ...the range of possible selection for a planning basis is very large, .

starting with a zero point of mquiring no planning at all because signifi- ,

- cant offsite radiological accident consequences are unlikely to occur, to i planning for the worst possible accident, regardless of its extremely low {

likelihood...

F' "EPZs are defined as the areas for which planning is needed to assure that

/ prompt and effective actions can be taken to protect the public in the event  !

@, ; of an accident... j "The choice of the size of the Emergency Planning Zones represents a judgment ],

. on the extent of detailed planning which must be perfomed to assure an adequate response base. In a particular emergency, protective actions might {

well be restricted to a small part of the planning zones. On the other q hand, for the worst possible accidents, protective actions would need to t a be taken outside the planning zones...Although the radius for the EPZ implies  !

a circular area, the actual shape would depend upon the characteristics of

~

a particular site." ,

s. o Both Applicants and the NRC Staff have consistently attempted to ignore  ;

1.. the Dallas / Fort Worth metroplex area in emergency planning concepts, even though

-n .

the Staff admitted that the pmdominant movement of storm cloud fomations in the Dallas / Fort Worth area is from the southwest to the northeast:

"CFUR has challenged the wind-rose pattern used by the Applicants to evaluate off-site re. leases, based on the predominant movement of stom-cloud fomations ,

in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. It is' correct _, as CFUR asserts, that the predominant movement of stom cloud formations in the Dallas-Fort Worth area is from the southwest to the northeast. (Markee, at 6) ." j

-- NRC Staff's 11/20/81 Answer Supporting Applicants' Motion for Sumary Disposition of Contention 9, bottom of page 9 continued

'_ on page 10 It would perhaps be helpful at this point to define what is meant by the Dallas / Fort Worth metroplex area. We can well understand that non-Texains.might not understand the precise meaning of the tem. This is a generally and widely-used term which apparently was first introduced by someone in public relations,

v. 1 and the phrase caught on and has been absorbed into everyday usage since then.

CASE contacted the North Central Texas Council of Governments, and found ,

that the closest definition to the Dallas / Fort Worth Metroplex area is apparently ,

the Standard Metropolitan Statistical Area (SMSA), which is composed of the following Texas counties: Collin, Dallas, Denton,' Ellis, Hood, Johnson, Kaufman, Parker, Rockwall, Tarrant, and Wise. We have not updated this infonnation since our initial contact over a year ago; we would assume that, if anything, the number of people expected to reside in the metroplex area would probably be greater than that which is indicated following. We have attempted to roughly l outline this area in relation to the Comanche Peak site (see Attachment L,

- - Page 1 of 2) . As can be seen, this area is ~ roughly 6 to 110 miles from the Comanche Peak site. (CASE is not saying that the entire SMSA should be included in emergency planning for Comanche Peak, but that part of the area should be.)

As indicated in CASE Attachment L, Page 2 of 2:

"According to the 1980 Census, the Dallas / Fort Worth SMSA (2,966,342) is the largest metropolitan area in the State. It grew from 1970-80 at an annual rate of-2.3 percent per year with a numerical change of 588,719 persons or 24.8 percent change for the decade. Our (the North Central Texas Council of Government's) estimates show that the SMSA has grown by 91,708 persons or a percent increase of 3.1 percent from April 1,1980 to January 1, 1981. The cities of Dallas, Fort Worth, Arlington, Garland and Irving all show population in excess of 114,000 persons, while the combined population 7 -

of Dallas and Fort Worth represents 42.6 percent of the total SMSA population in 1981. The largest numerical increases were in the cities of Fort Worth (14,771), Plano (5,984), Arlington (5,777), Irving (4,891), Garland (4,701),

Hurst (4,251), and Carrollton (4,059) which represents 48.5 percent of the total numerical change for the SMSA from 1980-81. Several other cities, including Richardson, North Richland Hills, Denton, Addison, Grapevine, and

'Bedford, recorded an increase in excess of 2,500 each from 1980-81."

CASE contends that this large metroplex area must be considered in emergency planning to a greater extent than has been so far. Applicants and Staff have attempted to define the Emergency Planning Zones as being some sort of magical 10- and 50-mile radius from Comanche Peak, totally ignoring the fact (as admitted by the Staff) that the predominant movement of stcrm cloud formations in the 1

~

Dallas-Fort Worth area is from the southwest to the northeast. This is especially  ;

4 important during the spring months when thunderstorms occur more frequently.

Another major area which has been ignored in emergency planning is the ,

impact on the Dallas / Fort Worth metroplex area of refugees from the imediate area of the Coranche Peak site in the event of an ' accident. The rule of reason dictates that it could logically be assumed that in such event there would be a large influx of refugees into the Dallas / Fort Worth metroplex area. There _

is no indication that this has been considered in the emergency planning. -

There should be consideration given to, and arrangements made for, sheltering, 3 9

  • food, clothing, and medical care for such refugees. This has not been addressed. .

As far as CASE can tell at this time, there are no plans to even inform anyone in Dallas should there be an accident at Comanche Peak.

There_ is also no indication in the emergency plans to indicate that sufficient -

planning has been done in regar'd to the drinking water sources for the Dallas /

I' Fort Worth metroplex area in the event of an accident at Comanche Peak. This

. vitally important matter deserves much closer attention than it has been given.

CASE maintains that all segments of the public must be considered who may 4 .

be affected by accidents at CPSES, including, in the event of a worst-case acci- ,

dent or an accident with large releases of radiation or radioactive materials into the atmosp,here, the Dallas / Fort Worth metroplex area if there exists the possibility that the air currents may carry radioactive materials to the metro-plex' area.

'NUREG-0654, Appendix 4,11.0., page 4-4, states :

I "Where meteorological conditions such as dominant wind directions, warrant special consideration, an additional sub-area may need to be defined and a s_eparate estimate made for this case."

This has not been done.

NUREG-0654, states on page 9, 0.b. Ingestion exposure pathway:

}

"The principal exposure from this pathway would be from ingestion of con-taminated water or foods such as milk, fresh vegetables or aquatic foodstuffs."

Adequate consideration has not been given to the above in regard to the Dallas / Fort Worth metroplex area and the impact of, an accident at Comanche Peak i

in this regard.  :

Major deficiencies exist in regard to the following: Federal agencies are not identified with sufficient specificity to be meaningful. Additionally, the Department of Agriculture is not identified. The Red Cross is not identified.

The fq110 wing should also be identified: personnel responsible for transmission of emergency information, responsible for food and water supplies, medical support personnel, security personnel, and other support personnel. , [

Further, it is not sufficient to identify people without indicating that ,

' they have been properly trained and are capable of carrying out their functions;

~

there is nothing to assure that the people indicated are. going to be properly trained. There is also no documen1!ation that the number of people available.

cation that arrangements have been made to comfort and care for individuals who

.may be suffering from psychological problems and stress due to an accident at Comanche Peak.

'It should be noted that further guidance is contained in the Federal Emergency Management Agency National Radiological Emergency Preparedness / Response Plan for Comnercial Nuclear Power Plant Accidents (the Master Plan), FEDERAL REGISTER, 12/23/80, pages 84910 through 84917. We have not quoted directly from it in this response, but it should be included as an integral part of the Board's consideration of this contention, along with NOREG-0654, Rev.1, November 1980, and 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix E.

CASE could write a book about specific problem areas . detailed in the FEMA Master Plan and NUREG-0654 which have not been adequately addressed in emergency planning for Comanche Peak. There are some portions of nearly every area of emergency planning which has not been sufficiently dealt with in the emergency plans at this time. Many of these areas are not just concerns of CASE. We hav'e included as Attachments A through K hereto coments which were received from the NRC, DOE, the Department of Health & Human Services, U. S. Department  ;

, of Agriculture, FEMA, EPA, Argonne National Laboratory, and DOT; these coments I were provided to CASE by the Texas Department of Health, by Mr. Clarence L. Born, _

Manager, Emergency Planning Program, Division of Compliance and Inspection, ..

I Bureau of Radiation Control, on August 6,1982 (see his cover letter, Attachment A hereto). We believe that a review of those coments, coupled with CASE's ;f.

coments herein, will be more than sufficient to persuade the Board that l t

t Applicants' Motion fcr Sumary Disposition of CASE's Contention 2? be denied.

, N Q

'. I r

CASE is very concerned about orie aspect of these proceedings, especially h p

in regard to emergency planning. That is the usual procedure by which Applicants I t

and NRC Staff can only be cross-examined on their pre-filed direct testimony. -8

, y This means. that, in the case of emergency planning where most of the deficiencies b.

are simply that certain aspects have not been addressed at all or adequately, k

L both Applicants and Staff can possibly avoid having to deal with those specific P issues by simpl i:

ignoring them in their pre-filed direct testimony. CASE cannot D

T believe that this is the purpose of NRC regulations, and we urge the Board to k t;

take whatever steps are necessary to assure that a full and complete record is made in these proceedings,not only for the matters included in Applicants'  !:

and Staff's pre-filed direct testimony but for those deficiencies which have l' f

not been addressed. '

2. (continued):

The two letters of agreement from the Sheriff's Departments, which are basically identical in content, state that they will:

(1). " Authenticate the notification of an emergency by calling back the agency which made the initial notification." This would seem to be questionable, unless the person calling the Sheriff's Departments will be calling no one else in the meantime.

We would assume that they would be busy calling several other individuals and/or organizations. It is also not clear.how many people are available on a round-the-clock basis with each Sheriff's Department, how easy it would be to get in touch with the appro-priate people at the Department, how quickly the Department could be mobilized, etc. We believe we're dealing with " paper people" again.

The letter of agreement with the Granbury Volunteer Fire Depart-ment is being "re-negotiated and will be added to the plan when it becomes available." Therefore, it is non-existent at the present time. It is not sufficient to say that this will be done in the future. There are many unanswered questions, such as "Why was it necessary to renegotiate the letter of agreement to begin with?" "How will the apparent problem which necessi-tated the renegotiation be solved?" etc.

The Somervell County Fire Department letter of agreement contains the statement, that "The Somervell County dispatcher may verify the authenticity of the request by calling the,CPSES Control Room." There is nothing to indicate that they would get anything but a busy signal if they did. There is also nothing to indi-cate that there fire any dedicated telephone lines to assist wi th vi tal telephone communica tions in any regard. The letter also limits the assi~s tance to be given to extinguishing fires at 'CPSES and on adjacent CPSES property.

The local fire-fighting support consists of approximately 50 -

l volunteers, with one truck, which would be available in approxi-mately 30 minutes. There is no indication of how many volunteers l

could realistically be expected to show up in case of an actual radiological emergency at CPSES.

There are no specifics about training the fire-fighting support personnel.

There is no mention how the ambulances will coordinate with the hospitals or the plant site, how any emergency on-the-spot treat-ment will be administered (if any), how the ambulance drivers l

(not specified to be radiological injuries); no indication is '

given that Hood County has had any training to treat radiological injuries; it does not say how many personnel, if any, will be trained, and how they will be trained. It states that a physician shall be (in the future?) included on staff (appears to be en-tirely speculative at this time). There is nothing about capa-bilities to handle a large-scale' accident. It refers to back-up medical services from the Radiation Management Corporation and .

their affiliated hospital, but there are no provisions indicated for transportation, how much time it will take to get any assistance either on-site or at RMC's facilities at the Northwestern Memorial Hospital in Chicago, Ill . Further, since this change was just made from RMC's Pennsylvania facilities to their Chicago facilities, it is not clear whether or not the Chicago facilities are fully acquainted with what responsibilities they might have in regard .

to radiological emergencies resulting from an accident at CPSES.

It is stated that TUGC0 will provide technical assistance, radiological monitoring equipment and personnel monitoring devices necessary to evaluate the radiological condition of the patient,  ;

but there is no indication of specifically who in TUGC0 can do this.

There is no letter of agreement with Marks General Hospital. '.

The letter of agrcement with Radiation Management Corporation (RMC) is completely generic. There is nothing specific about CPSES. There are no specifics as to procedures, time elements, identification of any people who will act as liason between CPSES, the county, the State, etc. and/or hospital personnel.

No personnel or procedures are identified to detennine at which point RMC will be called on if needed; there is no indication that RMC has done any site-specific evaluation of CPSES or surround-ing areas or facilities; it is never stated that an expert will .

come to the site or surrounding areas if needed; there are no provisions about how long it would take such personnel from RMC to get down to the site, what their capabilities are in terms of how many individuals they can take care of, whether or not the patients will be physically able to be transported

" to Chicago and at whose expense such transportation would occur.

The letter of agreement with Squaw Creek Park, Inc. (SCPI) does not indicate how SCPI will effect the evacuation of Squaw l .

Creek Park, how they will account for all park visitors and I

l personnel; there is not one single person or title named; there is no indication of how many people are available at any given time at SCP; no written procedures have been developed for anything yet; no brochures and emergency information is avail-able yet nor is it clear how the information will be Inade available and who will pay for it.

Provisions for early distribution of personal dosimetry devices from local sources need to be developed so that local workers

. . . ,,w... . . . . n , _;, .. , . .. ,

2. (continued):

are covered during the estinuted 4-hour deployment time at the beginning of an emergency.

Procedures should be developed for emergency workers to report dosimeter readings frequently. Additional procedures requiring notification when a worker's dose has reached a specified level should be in place. A special sdt of instructions should be available for a member of the public who must go into an exclusion area. The exposure information should be available before the individual is contaminated.

Provisions for training of local support personnel are not found [

in the local plans. .

t Section VII, Part B of the state plan describes the assignment i of accident assessment responsibilities. The county should -

state what equipment, if any, is available to measure whole body .i gamma exposures and airborne radiciodine concentrations. A  :

plan for transmitting these data, if any, to the E0F should be ,-

included. ,t.

J.2. Protective Response,-of NUREG-0654, is not addressed. k The utility is primarily responsible for this, but cooperative [

arrangements for sheltering, decontamination, medical attention.

f etc. , are needed. [

p Attachment K to the llood County plan for Emergency Husbandry I

_ Procedures addresses the problem of contamination of human and ,

animal foods in an ' adequate manner for the most part. Gamma i ray and radiciodine exposures directly from the airborne plume ~

are not adequately addressed, however. The response indicated in the procedures for the Executive Group is one of ordering evacu-ation or sheltering when reconmended by the state or by the utility. .

If this is the case, the cross-reference for J.9 should include -

F a reference to Section I - The Executive Group Procedures, p t

Hood County Annex F,Section V M states that exposure control i is the function of the Texas Department of Health but that the l

l  ;

county RD0 will assist as requested if resources are available.

Attachment G - Evacuation - Tab. 3 lists the contents of the list j

p for roadblock personnel. Only a TLD is to be furnished. NUREG 3 0654-K3 requires both self-reading (e.g., pocket ion dosimeter)  ?

and permanent record dosimeters (e.g. , TLD). In addition, the  ;

self-reading devices must have appropriate sensitivities to J permit meeting NUREG00654, K4. Each emergency worker should be provided a sensitive direct-reading dosimeter (e.g., 0-200 m Rem) plus a higher range direct-reading dosimter (e.g.,

0-20 Rem) plus a pennanent record device (e.g., TLD or film badge).

Improvements are needed in the plan to insure the availability and proper distributions of appropriate dosimeters. Section VII-B-7 of Appendix 7 to Annex L of the state plan (contamina-tion control) implies that all workers entering a contaminated

area will have dosimeters but the number available, the source 0

of supply, etc., is not detailed. ,

Dose record forms need to be included in the plan and need to be distributed to emergency workers. In addition, require- .

ments need to be developed for frequent reading and timely reporting of doses to the E0Cs by the emergency workers.

The procedure for authorization of emergency workers to incur exposures in excess of PAGs needs to be clearly stated

,; in the county plan. This should clearly name the official who

- is able to authorize this action. The procedure should also -

clearly require that the decision take into account the exposure r

data from the preceding three paragraphs. .a .

Attachment H - Shelter; Monitoring and Precontamination Procedures of the Hood County plan does not specify action levels for decon-tami nation. The Tab 1, Chapter 1, Procedure 5, Part VI does [

specify action levels for initiating decontamination.

We are unable to find maps of evacuation areas as such. There is a general lack of precise evacuation procedures in the plans.

Will instructions and procedures

  • including areas to be evacuated i be included in the public infonnation packages? We are unable to find maps of shelter or relocation areas.

Shelter facilities should be outside the 10 mile EPZ (Glen Rose Senior High, which is within the 10-mile zone, is listed as a shelter facility).

p Where does the temporary clothing come from if an individual's

' clothing is contaminated? This should be addressed specifically.

Local plans should indicate they will participate in appropriate training. If mutual aid pacts or reciprocal agreements exist between government entities, like training will be made available to them. Those organizations listed should indicate their intent to participate in the necessary training to qualify them for ,

response to an accident / incident at CPSES.

  1. - The Plan doesn't say that the Emergency Management Director /

Coordinator will receive any training.

The Plan is to be reviewed each six months and revised or updated annually. While not mentioned specifically, mentions it is as'sumed this review and update process would consider any coments made as a result of exercises. This should be specifically ad-dressed and it should be indicated whro specifically will do such reviewing and updating based on coments received and that such coments will be incorporated into the plan and adopted .

if appropriate.

Answer: It is not sufficient to state that the above-referenced Letter of Agreement "is being renegotiated and will be included" at some nebulous later date. It should be ascertained why the letter had to be renegotiated to begin with, what the problem was to begin with and whether or not sufficient detailed information is or will be available to assure that regulatory requirements will be met in this regard. +

Further, if and when this Letter of Agreement is executed, it should be stated clearly that the individuals and organi-zations involved have been made fully aware of the information contained in NUREG-0654 and other applicable regulatory documents, that they are willing to participate in proper train ~ing, that they know exactly what their responsibilities will be and that they are capable and willing to perform those responsibilities and duties.

Provision for medical emergency drills could not be located i

in the local plans.

i L'

The State plan does not provide for radiological monitoring drills.

7. (continued):

guide specifying Federal response. NUREG-0654 directs that planning for Federal response be included even though there is no intention on the part of the State to include such resources in the emergency response resource requirements.

There is no reference to unannounced exercises, although i't is indicated that such exercises'will be in accordance with FEMA requirements. The plan does not specifically address exercise objectives and evaluation. It is asserted that drills over and above those conducted during annual exercises are not necessary, since the staff perform such activities routinely.

This may be true at present, but the situation could change.

in the future. It should be specified that additional drills would be carried out if exercise debriefing or critiques should -

indicate this need. Additional drills may also be appropriate as staff assignments are changed, new equipment is acquired, or new procedures are instituted. ,

The State plan identifies only the American Red Cross as private: ,

sector response organizations, although universities and labora- -

tories are given response assignments. _'

No mention is made of provisions for starting exercises between 6:00 p.m. and midnight and between midnight and 6:00 a.m.

The dates, tiomes, places for exercises and drills are not '

mentioned in the State plan. {, 7 _

No time schedule of events is included in the plans.  ;

l , No exercises or drills including such things as simulated

  • i casualties, off site fire department assistance, rescue of l personnel, etc. are mentioned.

A description of the arrangements for and advance materials to be provided for official observers is not included in the sections covering Exercises and Drills.

(NOTE: Most of the preceding items which apply to Somervell County also apply to Hood County.)

The cross reference cites the utility emergency plan, but l

l I the state plan makes some of the exercises and drills the respon-sibility of the utility, the Bureau of Emergency Management, and the Bureau of Radiation Control. There is no evidence in the local plan that local organizations receive training or par-i ticipate in exercises and drills or that training programs for local emergency response personnel have been developed. These coments apply to each item in NUREG Section N. Exercises and Drills, Planning Standard, pages 71 through 74.

! Answer: This statement is incorrect. Some portions of the Dallas / Fort Worth Metroplex lie outside the ten-mile exposure pathway emergency planning zone ("EPZ"). However, some portions lie wit'hin the EPZ as identified in NUREG-0654, Rev.1. Further, Applicants '

and Staff's interpretation of what is meant by the EPZs is f

12. Statement: Much of Tarrant County and a small portion of Dallas County lie within the fifty-mile Ingest, ion Exposure Pathway EPZ.

Answer: This statement is true in part: Much of Tarrant County does lie within the fifty-mile Ingestion Exposure Pathway EPZ.

The remaining portion of the statement, however (that "a small portion of Dallas County" lies within the fifty-mile ingestion Exposure Pathway EPZ), is too broad and lacks speci- '

ficity to the point of being meaningless. ,

See also Answer to 11. preceding. ,

13. Statement: The State is responsible for emergency planning in the Ingestion Exposure Pathway EPZ.

Answer: This statement verifies and confinns that Applicants have missed one of the major points set forth in NUREG-0654 -- that there should be an integrated approach to the development of response plans to radiological hazards. See GENERAL, pages 4 and 5 in particular, a,nd 6 through 10 generally; and Answers 1, 2, and 7.

14. Statement: The Texas Emergency Management Plan provides for emergency planning in the Ingestion Exposure Pathway EPZ.

Answer: The question is not whether or not there are words printed on paper about the Texas Emergency Management Plan providing for emergency planning in the Ingestion Exposure Pathway EPZ, but rather whether or not such planning is adequate and provides assurance that all regulatory requirenents will be met in this -

regard. CASE does not believe that such assurance exists at this time.

Further, as stated previously, Applicants' and Staff's inter-pretation of what is meant by the EPZs is not consisent with what is stated in the regulations (see GENERAL, pages 6 through 9 for specific details); their interpretation ignores key factors which should be considered in determining the size and shape of the EPZs.

' or not such planning is adequate and provides assurance that all regulatory requirements will be met in this regard. CASE does not believe that such assurance exists at this time.

Dear Mrs. Ellis:

In response to your telephone request today, enclosed please find the following documents:

Item: Texas State Emergency Management Plan of 1982 Item: Texas Department of Health's Annex L to the State Plan Item: The Bureau of Radiation Control's Appendix 7 to Annex L (Including Tab 1; Fixed Nuclear Facility Response)

  • Item: Local Emergency Management Plans for Hood and Somervell Counties Item: Cross Reference of the above cited documents to NUREG-0654, Rev. 1 Item: Copies of the comments of each reviewing agency on the Regional Assistance Committee concerning the contents of the above documents Please be aware that the local plans for Hood and Somervell Counties are the responsibility of the County Judges of the respective countius, and are not a part of the Texas State Emergency Management Plan. Questions concerning those local plans should be directed to the appropriate local official.

Additionally, please be aware that the first four items listed above are only a part of the Texas State Emergency Management Plan. As was stated in the letter of transmittal to FEMA, and explained in person to members of the RAC (Regional Assistance Committee) on June 17th, "Other annexes to the State Plan, along with supporting documentation are on file in the offices of the Division of Emergency Management, and are available for inspection upon request." Because those other annexes constitute a large volume of material, and because they contain information not directly ' germane to radiological emergency response, they were not submitted for review, but are available for your inspection in the offices of the respective State Agencies.

Sincerely, Clarence L. Born, Manager Emergency Planning Program Division of Compliance and Inspection Bureau of Radiation Control

Al Lookabaugh, Chairman Regional Assistance Committee Federal Emergency Management Agency Region VI Federal Center Denton, Texas 76201

Dear Mr. Lockabaugh:

The following are my comments on the iexas Emergency Management Plan which was submitted to our office for review on June 17, 1982.

Each of the planning element criteria from NUREG-0654 that are assigned to the NRC are listed below followed by the appropriate comment.

! Element C.1.a

  • The Governor is authorized to request federal assistance,using his disaster declaration authority. The Disaster Response Program Director is designated to coordinate specific requests to the various federal agencies having radiological emergency response capability.

Element C.2.a Provisions are made to dispatch a representative to the licensee's E0F.

l Element C.3 Radiological laboratories are adequately described, however, I could not locate information describing the expected availability during an emergency.

Element D.3 The emergency classification and action level scheme is consistent with that established by the facility licensee.

Element E.1 l Notification and verification procedures are established and are consistent with the emergency classification and action level scheme.

l l .

2 Attachment B-2 s

Element E.2 Alerting and notifying personnel is adequately described but procedures for actually mobilizing emergency personnel are not. Procedures for assembling and briefing field tei.ms at the Bureau Office (or elsewhere) l should be described.

! In the Accident Notification Sequence (Attachment 6 to Appendix 7, page 29),

it appears that considerable time could elapse before the Bureau of Radiation Control is notified (i.e., it appears that 5 agencies are notified before the Bureau). However, it is noted that arrows on the sequence show an " alternate channel of notification". What does this meanir Is the notification of BRC timely?

Element E.6 The local government is responsible for notifying and providing the l prompt instructions. Procedures for this are adequately described in the l local plans.

Element F.1.d l

Communication procedures are adequately described in the Hood County plan for local officials. However, a description of State communication -

procedures could not be located. There should also be a description of

, communication procedures for the field monitoring teams.

Clemer.t G.3.a Points of contact and physical locations have been designated in both State and local plans.

l Element G.4.a

' The local plan designates specific spokespersons by title, but the State plan refers only to " bureau personnel assigned this function." Who are the persons (titles) assigned to coordinate public and news media information?

Element H.3 Emergency operation centers are described in state and county plans.

Element H.4 Timely activation and staffing of EOC.'s is provided for in the plans.

l I

y. .  :.

3 Attachment B-3 s.

Element H.7 Offsite radiological monitoring equipment is briefly described but no listing or specific description is given. A list of all monitoring equipment giving make and model number, radiation detected, range and other descriptive information should be included (i.e., such lists are given for backup labs like the UT TRIGA facility).

Element H.10 The State plan calls for semi-annual calibration of instruments. Instrument reserve capability cannot be determined without an inventory list.

Element H.11 Emergency kits are adequately described.

Element H.12 A central collection and analysis point for radiological samples is established by the plan.

Element I.7 Field monitoring in the plume exposure pathway is adequately described.

Element I.8 The plan only partially addresses this element. The USEPA " Manual of Protective Action Guides and Protective Actions for Nuclear Accidents" is referenced, but the plan contains no specific information regarding procedures to be used by the Bureau of Radiation Control . For example, there should be information on computer, or calculator programs (if used),

isopleths, recording data supplied by the, licensee, use of meteorological data, and any deviations from EPA procedures that may be used. Also, no information i provided regarding team communications or estimated deployment times. .

Element I.9 l

Specific information concerning radioiodine monitoring could not be located in the plan.

Element I.10 According to the State plan, dose estimates for the key isotopes can be made based on actual and projected dose rates and EPA protective action guides would be used.

l I

- l 4 Attachment B-4 s

Element J.10.m The basis for the choice of recommended protective actions are given.

Element K.3.a Twenty-four hour capability is provided for. Dosimeter distribution is provided for.

Element K.3.b t

The reading of dosimeters is included in the plan and dose records will be kept according to written procedures in the plan.

Element K.S.a Decontamination action levels are specified.

Element K.S.b -

Decontamination procedures are thoroughly described in the State plan.

Element L.1

' The local plans describe the general capabilities of the county hospitals. However, a list of supporting hospitals was being developed i and was not yet included in plans.

l l ElementLL.3 The hospital list is under development.

Element L.4 Procedures for medical transportation to medical support facilities could not be located in the plan.

Element N.1.a Exercises are provided for and will be conducted ". . . in accordance with requirements identified by the Federal Emergency Management Agency."

(Tab 1: FNF Response, Introduction, Attachment 4-4). Reference to the "NRC rules" mentioned in Element N.1.a are not included in the State plan.

. Element N.1.a l

Communication drills are adequately provided for.

5 Attachment B-5 b -

Element N.2.c Provision for medical emergency drills could not be located in the local plans.

Element N.2.d The State plan does not provide for radiological monitoring drills. The plan states that Bureau personnel routinely perform radiological monitoring and therefore do not need an annual drill.

The value of such a drill is to provide monitoring teams the opportunity to practice in the environment surrounding the nuclear facility. For this

, reason, an annual drill is recommended.

Element N.2.e(1)

Health physics drills are. adequately provided for in the State plan.

Elements N.3.a b, c, e, and f Scenario development is to include the information contained in these elements.

Element N.4 5

Exercise critiques are provided for in the State plan.

Element N.5 Evaluation of obeserver comments and management control over p1a' n revision and corrective. comments is provided for.

. Elements 0.4.a. b, c, d, and f Training programs are described in the State and local plans.

Element P.4 Plan updating is provided for.

Element P.6 The plans contain a detailed listing of supporting plans and their source.

Element P.7 Implementing procedures are included.

Denton, TX 76201 .

Dear Mr. Lookabaugh:

As requested by your letter of June 18, 1982, subject, Review of State and Local Plans for Comanche Peak, we have reviewed the subject documents.

In general we find the plans adequately meet the criteria established by NUREG-0654, FEMA-REP-1, Rev. 1. The plans are complete and in depth, both for State and Local agencies.

However, one general comment is offered for consideration by the State.

Although references to Federal response are made in several locations throughouc the plan, there is no definitive planning guide specifying Federal response. NUREG-0654 directs that planning for Federal response be included even though there is no intention on the part of the State to include such resources in the emergency response resource requirements. In the event of an incident at any fixed nuclear facility in the State which affects the offsite area, Federal response will be in evidence without planning. We believe planning should be included to cover such an exigency.

Sincerely, b

  • DALLAS. TEXAS 75270 July 21, 1982 Mr. Albert L. Lookabaugh  !

Chairman, Regional Assistance Comittee Natural and Technological Hazards i Federal Emergency Management Agency Federal Center Denton, Texas 76201

Dear Mr. Lookabaugh:

We have completed our review of the Texas Radiologica? Emergency Response Plan as requested in your memorandum of June 18, 1982.. Our comments are enclosed.

In accordance with Fema Guidance Memorandum 16, we did not assign acceptable /

unacceptable / missing designators, but made narrative statements about each element.

l In general, we found the Plan to be a great improvement over the draft version j we reviewed in May,1981. The great bulk of material that was missing from the draft has now found its way into the present Plan.

Our review was greatly facilitated by the effort the preparers of the Plan put into indexing and cross-indexing. Without indexing, our review would have re-quired several times as much effort (and time) because of the sheer bulk of the Plan and its many component parts. Even with all the careful indexing, however, several component parts were difficult to find. The CPSES Plan, for example, was found as Chapter 1 of Tab 1, but does not appear in any of the Tables of Contents.

We strongly recommend that Fema encourage, or, if possible, require future Plan preparers to include a comprehensive cross-index in all plans submitted for RAC review.

In general, we find the parts of the Plan that we reviesed to be workable, and in line with the Fema-Rep-l Criteria.

Mr. Hank May o,f my taff will be pleased to meet with the RAC to explain any of our comments, or will do so by telephone if a meeting is not required.

Sincerely yours, t f S 1'  !

,, Attachment G-2 s- DETAILED COMMENTS A.2.a. Functions and Responsibilities Responsibilities have been assigned in Apo. 7, chap. VII and in the matrix on p. 31. Appropriate required training is specified in chap. VIII.

Accident Assessment App. 7, p.10 specifies up to 4 persons per shift, with provisions to augment. Responsible official is clearly indicated. Training at Fema's Accident Assessment Course is specified on p.18.

Protective Response Hood Co. Plan p. 49, Radef Officer has responsibility.

Exposure Control Co. plan p. 49 notes this is primarily a T00H function. App. 7 p.11 discusses this under Contamination Control, and responsibility is included as a duty of the Team Leaders, p. 8.

~

Co. plans cover this in chap. VI.

A.3. Written Agreements with Support Agencies The Plan has been devel.oped under the philosophy that most operations are required by statute, and special written agreements are not needed.

It is' assumed that accidents can be handled with State and local re-sources and that no Federal assistance will ever be needed or requested.

This is hopefully correct, but it can never be assured. The Plan should at a minimum recognize that the need for Federal assistance, or a Federal presence, is at least possible, and assign responsibilities and authorities to appropriate staff, and establish procedures for requesting Federal assistance.

C.1.c. RAP /IRAP Support Resources Neither EPA nor IRAP have been designated for potential support roles, since the need for Federal assistance is not anticioated.

C.3. Radiological Laboratory Capability Radiological support laboratories are identified: mobile Health Dept.

lab in Tab 1, Chp.1, p. 7, UT and Texas A&M in Tab 1, p. 8. Federal lab support is not anticipated.

Attachment G-3 C.4. Other Emergency Assistance No outside assistance is anticipated other than that which might be obtained through the Southern Mutual Radiation Assistance Plan (except see C.3. above), or that which is provided by statute.

E.1. Notification of Response Organization Notification forms are Attachment 4 and 5 of Tab 1, Chp. l. Bases for notification are given in Tab 1, Chp.1. Verification procedures are not included for State notifications, since ve'rification is covered by i 50P's. However, verification is indicated in App. 7, Attachment 6.

Local plans specify verification.

E.3. Content of initial notifications are specified in Attachment 4 and 5 ,

of Tab 1 Chp. l, and content is appropriate.

i H.7. Offsite Radiological Monitoring Capability Appropriate offsite monitoring equipment is provided for, as specified in Attachment 6 of Tab 1, Chp. 1.

t H.11. Emergency Kit Inventory ~

l Radiological monitoring Rits do not specifically include operating -

manuals for equipment, check' sources, or site maps.

s.

I I.7. Field Monitoring Within the EPZ Adequate capability and resources for monitoring the plume exposure EPZ is indicated in Tab 1,'Chp. 1. Training and refresher provisions

! are outlined in Tab 1, Attachment 4.

j I.8. Assess Radiological Hazards Capabilities to perform rapid assessments of radiological hazards are indicated in App. 7 and Tab 1. Notification arrangements are shown in App. 7 Sec VI. C and Attachments 5 and 6, are adequate. Provisions include computer graphics terminals with hard-copy output.

I.9. Capability to Measure Radioicdine Radiof odine monitoring provisions use silver zeolite (Apo. 7, p. 9).

Autillary equipment as described in Tab 1, Chp. 1, p. 7 is adequate.

Attachment G-4 3-I.10. Dose Rates from Key Radionuclides Procedure 1 merely references EPA's Manual of Protective Actions and Guides for dose conversion techniques and Attachment 4 to Procedure 1 lists levels for key nuclides in the ingestion pathway. While the methodology is thus included by reference, the Plan would be improved greatly if explicit details were to be included to make the dose projections. Consideration should be given to including nomograms.

EPA's National Interim Drinking Water Regulations are not intended for application to accident or short term situations, but rather chronic long-term exposures. Consequently, the Appendix B levels of nuclides which correspond to 4 mrem /yr annual dose are those calcu-lated for the 50th year of exposure. This makes'little or no differ-ence for short half-life nuclides, but can be important for long-life nuclides, and can lead possibly to excessive conservatism in some cases. Procedure 1 will be improved if it is revised to clarify this point. Also, as with the PAG dose conversions incorporated by reference, the Procedure will be further improved if explicit proce-dural details are added for this pathway. -

I.ll. Track Airborne Radioactive Plume Arrangements to locate and track th_e plume are indicated in Tab 1, Chp. 1, p. 7.

J.9. Implementation of Protective Action Criteria s

The Plans indicate a capability for implementing required protective measures. Protective Action Guides presented in Procedure 1 attach-ments are consistent with' EPA guides.

J.10.m. Bases for Plume Exposure Protective' Action The bases for choice of protective actions are presented in Tab 1, Chp. 1, Procedure 1. Evacuation times are in Local Plar.s Attachment G, the Comanche. Peak Emergency Procedures Manual (p. 209).

J.11. Protective Measures for Ingestion P'rotective measures to be used for the ingestion pathway are pre-sented in Tab 1 Introduction and Chapter 1, Procedure 1 and Attach-ments . Protective Actions and procedures are appropriate.

Attachment G-5 4

s J.12. Registering and Monitoring of Evacuees Monitoring equipment at relocation centers is apparently the Civil Defense instruments. I finally located monitoring procedures in Attachaent H of the CPSES, but I never did find it indexed anywhere.

Monitoring equipment should be specified.

K.3.a. Emergency Worker Dose Determination Contamination Control Team handles this (Tab 1 Chp. 1, p. 9).

Sufficient staff are available to ensure 24-hour coverage. Exoosure record form is presented as Attachment 8 of Tab 1, Chp.1. Limita-tion of worker exposures is also addressed in CPSES Procedure 1,

p. 1-6(6).

K.3.b. Maintain Dose Records Methods for kseping accurate emergency worker exposure records are presented in Tab 1, Chp. 1, V.C. 7.

K.4. Authorize Emergency Overexposure I could not find specific reference to the authority who can authorize emergency exposures of workers to doses in excess of the PAG's. Evi-dently excess exposures are not to be permitted.

K.5.a. Decontamination Action Levels Decontamination action levels are presented 'in Tab 1, Chp.1 Proce-dure 1, Attachment 5.

K.5.b. Decontamination Means Decontamin~ation means are presented in Attachments 4, 5 and 6.

Attachment G-6

> N.2.d. Radiological Monitoring Orills Attachment 4 to Tab 1 Intro. (p. 20) asserts that drills over and above those conducted during annual exercises are not necessary, since the staff perform such activities routinely. This may be true at present, but the situation could change in the future. The Plan would be a better one if it specified that additional drills would be ca 'd out if exercise debriefing or critiques should indicate this neec. Additional drills may also be appropriate as staff assignments are changed, new equipment is acquired, or new procedures are instituted.

Plan needs to be tabulated for quick reference. Page numbering is inconsistent for base plan. Plan organization is confusing.

Either should be two separate plans or organization for 1 plan consistent throughout (eg. 1 warning annex and 1 set of attach-ments for entire plan).

Attachment I-2 HOOD /SOMERVELL COUNTY EMERGENCY PLANS e

NUREG 0654 ELEMENT A. ASSIGNMENT OF RESPONSIBILITY 1.a. Plans indicate procedures for requesting support from State, Federal or military. Identified at the local level is Hood County and the incorporated cities of Granbury, Tipan and Tolar; and Somervell County and the city of Glen Rose. The Division of Occupational Health and Radiation Control will assist counties with planning and operations relating to fixed nuclear incident. .

Att'achment I-3

\~

3. Local plans' cross-reference indicates this element is not applicable. American Red Cross is covered by State, however, local volunteer organizations if they are to be used should have letters or agreements as to what with and how they will respond / assist local governments. School busses are to be used. If these are fiscally independent school districts and busses are either owned by the district or are contract busses and are to be used to evacuate people, letters of agreement may be appropriate. I feel local plans should address this element if any resources are to be used other than those connitted by law.
4. County Judges and Mayors of incorporated towns will assure continuity of operations in their respective jurisdictions.

Okay B. ONSITE EMERGENCY ORGANIZATION

2. While not designated as an element to be addressed in local plans, local governments may wish to include the title of the person from the licensees' facility who is responsible for initiating emergency actions and providing recommenda-tions for protective actions to offsite officials.

C. EMERGENCY RESPONSE SUPPORT AND RESOURCES 1.a. Cross reference indicates N/A. Base plan VI, A.l.d. and VIII, indicates County Judges or Mayors may request State, Federal Not FEMA of military assistance through State Disaster Districts, assigned Can local government request Federal or military assistance element directly? If so, it should be indicated and the proper procedures for doing so.

2.a. Cross reference indicates this element N/A. Plan should designate local offical to serve as representative of local government at the EOF. This doesn't mean a representative must be there; on.ly that a representative may be there if he/she so chooses.

4. Local government relies heavily upon State assistance for technical capabilities. Local resources other than schools and local government not addressed. Letters of agreement with school districts may be appropriate unless school re-sources have been committed previously through legal instru-ments.

7 Attachment I-4 .

D.

EMERGENCY CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM

3. Incidents occurring at Comanche Peak have been classified consistent with NUREG-0654 criteria and assumedly that of Utility facility operator.
4. Emergency classification system listed and increased readi-ness action given in basic plan. Lengthy " Manual of Emergency Procedure for Incidents involving the Comancho Peak Steam Electric Station" is included as an addendum to the plan and appears to cover procedures to be employed by various 1

entities consistent with the emergency action level.

E. NOTIFICATION METHODS AND PROCEDURES .

1. Procedures for verification are found on pp.147 and 148.

Proper response by organizational entity noted.

2. Page 71 gives procedures for notifying response organizations for unusual event. Similar procedures for all action levels given.
3. Cross reference indicates 'N/A', however, feel this element should be addressed by S and L. I do not find copy of initial emergency message or any indication that local government is aware of the contents of such a message (See p. 156, warning message "similar to")
5. P. 156 addresses type information which might be broadcast to the public in the event of an accident / incident at Comanche Peak.
6. Siren coverage on P. 40 appears to provide notification to the public. Means for providing instructions to the public by EBS or mobile PA units (pp. 157-162)

E.7. Pp. 227-231 gives sample message format for press for pro-tective measures and evacuation procedures.

F. , EMERGENCY COMMUNICATIONS 1.a. _ P.45 indicates sheriff's office to maintain 24 hour2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> per day communications capability. Capability consists of telephone and radio with DPS (currently not with utility).

b. N/A according to cross-reference however, it should be indicated what provisinns 'are made for communications with contiguous local (county) governments within 50 mile ingestion pathway. (eg.

through DPS District Office, Waco).

Attachment I-5 '

c.

Cross reference N/A. State responsibility (See coment C.la.)

d. Comunications from utility is apparently only through DPS District Office to local government at this time. Radiological monitoring teams and comunications between teams and local E0C or utility's EOF not addressed at local level. (State responsibility for monitor team comunication)

Okay

e. Plans have sufficient provisions and procedures for alerting emergency response personnel.

i

2. Plans indicate N/A as does State REP Plans. Local plans should address this element. (Capability to comunir. ate between ambulance / hospital)

G. PUBLIC EDUCATION AND INFORMATION 1.a. Public education and information is generally well-addressed,

b. I question the need to distribute the information package
c. annually to each residence. (IV.A.2,p.118) as changes occur
d. or bi-annually would seem more feasible. (Criteria says info will be distributed annually, not necessarily the same info package as the plans imply) The plans also indicate public meetings will be held annually. This is not required but is certainly okay if it is desired by local government.
2. The resident populace appears to be well covered regarding public education and information. I do not find provisions for assuring the transient populace has access to such intor-mation. Placing signs in public places, hotels, motels, _

stores, P.0's, etc. and publishing of info in telephone d_i-rectories would be some ways of making the infonnation avail-able to the transient populace.

3.a. The Waco District DPS office is noted as the point of contact for the media briefings schedule. The utility's operations facility (EOF) is designated as the site for the city and county news media. The alternate for the city / county will be the commissioners courtroom.

4.a. The chief executive of the County (Judge) and the Cities (Mayors) will be spokespersons for their jurisdictions (or their appointed representative) l 1

'~

Attachment I-6

'~

b. Press briefings will be scheduled and conducted for all news media at which time any exchange of information will occur.
c. The cross reference indicates the county and city will dis-courage independent news dissemination to the press; this may discourage some rumors, however, there will no doubt b_e some rumors and unsubstantiated info passed in the event of an ~

accident / incident at CPSES. There should be a telephone num-ber to call or a central location where one can go for factual information and where rumors can be verified or corrected.

5. I do not find specific provisions for programs to acquaint the news media with p}ans, radiation _ and points of contact on an annual basis. The plans should provide for this.

H. EMERGENCY FACILITIES AND EQUIPMENT 3.

Both counties have established E0C's (Somervell Co. has alternate E0C also).

4. Activation and staffing of E0Cs addressed satisfactorily.
7. State Health Department is primarily responsible for mon-itoring but County RDO will provide assistance if resources are available.
11. primarily responsibility of State Health Department.

I. ACCIDENT ASSESSMENT (No FEMA assigned element review)

J. PROTECTIVE RESPCNSE, 10.a. Maps showing evacuation routes are included but I do not find maps of evacuation areas as such. There is a general lack of precise evacuation procedures in the plans. I assume instructions and procedures including areas to be

" evacuated will De included in the public information package.

.. Radiological sampling and monitoring points are included in State Plan. I do not find maps of shelter or relocation areas.

These may not be needed due to common knowledge of area by all and the low evacuee population. Plans should so state if this is true.

Attachment I-7 h- b. Segmented population totals shown on p.192.

Okay

c. Outdoor warning devices to cover entire 10 EPZ. How to locate and warn hard-of-hearing or deaf?
d. Institutionalized persons compensated for: No mention of hard-of-hearing or handicapped persons not institutionalized.

f.

Decision is State's - County may assist in administration of KI if reque:;ted.

g. Means of relocation is primarily by auto (or school busses if duringschool). Assumes what few residents who do not have autos, have access to rides with friends, neighbors or relatives.

Plans should identify such persons and assure they will be evacuated.

h.

Shelter facilities should be outside the 10 mile EPZ (Glen Rose Senior High is listed as shelter facility) 1.

Projected traffic capacities of roads are cited and sup-porting studies referenced.

j.

County Sheriff is responsible for control points for evacua-tion )p. 47) and Tab G. VI indicatese control will be maintained over access to 5vacuated area (cross reference should indicate appropriate procedures which address this element).

k.

The only impediments (highway) noted would be icing or roadways.

Okay

1. Table 2 - misspelled word. " Area" section is upside down.

Summary of evacuation time analysis appears viable considering population.

12. Shelter registration form included in plan as Tab 2 to attach-ment H. Decontamination procedures seem reasonable.

Not (Where FEMA does the temporary clothing come from if individual's clothing is contaminated?)

K. RADIOLOGICAL EXPOSURE CONTROL 3.a. State responsibility primarily - County RD0 may assist.

Okay

Attachment I-8 w

4. State responsibility primarily - County RD0 may assit.

Okay L. MEDICAL AND PUBLIC HEALTH SUPPORT

3. Cross reference indicates N/A. State plan implies some local responsibility. Letters of agreement may be appro-priate to assure a willinsness and capability to accept radioactively contaminatec individuals. How many R.C.

patients can hospitals

' accommodate? Do they have capability to monitor? ,

i

4. Cross reference indicates p. 3 item f. of plan. This merely indicates the Sheriff's Office has the responsibility to dis-patch ambulances. Is this private ambulance service? Does utility have medical transfer capability? If private ambu-lance service,are personnel trained in handling R.C. patients?

How many ambulances are available?

M.

REC 0VERY AND REENTRY PLANNING AND POST ACCIDENT OPERATIONS

1. Plan indicates procedures and information regarding recovery

, and reentry will be provided by State Health. State plan does not address details of recovery and reentry such as time phased movement, etc.

This decision to be made based on time and circumstance of occurrence?

N. EXERCISES AND DRILLS i

1.a. Exercising, scenario development and drills are primarily

b. responsibility of State and Utility according to plan; 2.a. however, local plans should address willingness of local
b. governments to participate in exercises and drills noted and with the frequency recommended by NUREG-0654.

(note communication, medical drills required for locals) 3.a . 2 All same as above - Local covernment plans should indicate

REVIEW AND DISTRIBUTION OF EMERGENCY PLANS 1.

The Emergency Management Director / Coordinator is assigned responsibility for the planning effort. Plan doesn't say that person will be trained but must be assumed he has planning on experience and training to qualify him for the position.

2. Emergency Management Coordinator / Director designated.

3.

Emergency Management Coordinator / Director (who is the County Judge or his appointee) is responsible for emergency plans preparation, review, revision and coordination with other plans, 4.

Plan will be reviewed each six months and revised or updated annually. While not mentioned specifically, mentions it is assumed this review and update process would consider any coments made as a result of exercise.
