(Byron Nuclear Power Station, ) Units 1 & 2) ) TESTIMONY OF JOHN C. GOLDEN 01: Please state your name, present occupation, and present position. Al: My name is John C. Golden. I am employed by the Commonwealth Edison Company (" Commonwealth Edison") as Supervisor of Health Physics and Emergency Planning. I am also Commonwealth Edison's Radiation Protection Officer. I have been employed by Commonwealth Edison since January ll, 1971. 02: Briefly state your educational and professional qualifications. A2: I have a Bachelor of Science in Physics (1962) from the University of Massachusetts, and a Master of Public l Health (1964) and Doctor of Public Health (1970) from the University of Michigan. At Michigan I majored in radiological and environmental health. Prior to working for Commonwealth Edison, I worked as a health physicist for the Florida State

                                                                      .a
                                      ? ' Board of Health (1964-1966) and Sandia Corporation, Albuquerque, New Mexico (1966-1968).

g3: Describe your duties and responsibilities as Supervisor of Health Physics and Emergency Planning. 4 A3: As Supervisor of Health Physics and Emergency Planning, I am responsible for (a) the functional control of Commonwealth Edison's nucJear station radiation protection programs, (b) development, review, coordination and approval of nuclear station environmental radiological monitoring programs and emergency planning, and (c) providing radiation protection services to Commonwealth Edison's licensed non-nuclear generating stations. I g4: To which contention is this testimony addressed? A4: DAARE/ SAFE Contention 3 and League of Women Voters' Contentions 19 and 108. Q5: Briefly describe the emergency preparedness plan for Byron Station. A5: The emergency preparedness plan in Illinois for Byron Station is composed of five parts: (1) the generic Commonwealth Edison Generating Stations Emergenc-f Plan (GSEP); (2) the site specific Byron annex of GSEP: (3) the generic Illinois Plan for Radiological Accidents (IPRA Vol. 1); (4) the site specific Byron local plan (IPRA, Vol. 6); and (5) the various plans of the Federal agencies (such as NRC and FEMA). GSEP and the site specific Byron annex of GSEP are in final form and attached as Exhibits 1 and 2

  • respectively. The other three parts of the plan are ad-dressed by witnesses from the respective agencies.

06: Has GSEP been tested and reviewed in connection with exercises conducted at Commonwealth Edison's nuclear power plants? A6: Yes. GSEP has been successfully tested and reviewed nine times in connection with exercises at Commonwealth Edison's four operating plants, Dresden (1980, 1981, 1982), LaSalle (1980, 1982), Quad Cities, (1981, 1982), and Zion (1981, 1983). GSEP will again be tested and reviewed along with the site specific Byron Annex to GSEP in connection with an exercise at Byron scheduled for the week of August 22, 1983. Prior to this Byron exercise we will test the GSEP twice more, once at Quad Cities in May and once at LaSalle in July. 07: Please clarify your statement that the GSEP and site specific Byron annex to GSEP are in final form. A7: GSEP and the site specific annexes to GSEP j are documents which are subject to constant review and 1 revision. GSEP is reviewed annually and on a routine basis. The GSEP annexes are reviewed closely in connection with their respective exercises. Any changes which are deemed I necessary as a result of this review process are incorporated t ! into the documents. l l l 08: Has Commonwealth Edison Company prepared an l evacuation time estimate study in regard to the emergency

i b planning zone around Byron Station? A8: Yes. Commonwealth Edison Company commis-sioned the preparation of an evacuation time estimate study. f The final report is dated December, 1982 and attached as I Exhibit 3. The evacuation time estimate study was prepared i by Stone & Webster Engineering Corporation using site spe-cific information gathered by them as well as information , f gathered by the planning team who wrote the Byron annex to l IPRA. Many of the assumptions underlying the evacuation f time study were based on the concept of operations specified i in IPRA. 09: If the further review and revision of the Byron annex to IPRA indicates a significant change in assumptions l used in the evacuation time study, would that study be revised to reflect those changes? , l A9: The evacuation time study will be revised if I l such changes are warranted for an effective implementation 1 of the Byron emergency plan. 010: Do you have any reason to believe that the GSEP and the site specific Byron annex to GSL? will not be adequate to respond effectively to a nuclear emergency. A10: No. Commonwealth Edison has had considerable experience in the implemenation of the GSEP through exercises at its other nuclear power plants. The site specific Byron annex to the GSEP has been developed based on the experience gained at those other plants and with consideration of the circumstances particular to Byron. l

Nove'aber, 1981 Revision 3 PREFACE The GSEP was prepared to comply with current requirements. Because of time constraints, equipment availability, and construction and/or installation of facilities and systems, there are areas within the GSEP where the planned capability, as described, may not be completely satisfied at this time. Identified below are areas where GSEP descriptions depart from actual conditiocs. Communiestions

1. Beereency Support Facilities The upgrade of Stations' onsite TSCs and nearsite Bors and the development of the Safety Parameter Display System and Noelcar Data Link will be completed consistent with NaC established schedules. In addition, the Offsite Dose Calculation System is still under development.
2. Plant Modifications for Po,st Accident Sampling and High Ranoe Radiation Monitors
   ,                         Modifications to Station Post Accident Sampling and High
 /                           Range         Monitor equi; ment / systems are being completed consistent with NaC established schedules.

November, 1981 Revision 3 GENERATING STATIONS EMERGENCY PLAN (GSEP) , 1.0 SCOPE A8D APPLICABILITY commonwealth Edison Company (Commonwealth) provides electrical services to three million customers ' within a service area covering 11 525 square3 miles. Most of this territory is in northern ~ Illinois and includes about one-fifth of the State. Refer to Figure 1.0-1. In providing its electrical service, commenwealth is committed to the use of nuclear power and is licensed to operate several nuclear generating units within the State of Illinois by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC).

  • I In order to minimise the number of adbac decisions made du:ing an emergency and to ensure that necessary equipment, supplies, and essential services are available to meet the needs of an emergency, Commonwealth has developed the Generating Stations Emergency Plan (GSEP). The GSEP is an emergency plan applicable to all nuclear generating stations operated by l Commonwealth and considers the consequences of radiological emergencies, as l required by 10CPR50, Paragraph 50.47 and Appendix E. Additionally, the GSEP. l l addresses the supplemental guidance provided by the NBC in the form of f NUREG-0654/ FEMA-REP-1 (Revision 1, November, 1980). The GSEP also considers )

the consequences of nonradiological emergencies.  ; i ( The GSEP provides for the protection of the health and safety of the public, including commonwealth employees, the limitation of damage to  ! facilities and property, and the restoration of such facilities in the event of an emergency. The GSEP describes the related emergency organization, including , assignments of authority and re'sponsibility. The GSEP provides for detection  ! and evaluation of emergency situations, protective measures, communications,- I coordination and notifications of governmental authorities, document review l J

  • and control, emergency preparedness assessment, and training of all emergency l personnel.

Revision 3 3.0   SusetARY OF EMERGENCY PLAN The Division vice-President, Nuclear Stations is responsible for the safe and reliable operation and maintenance of nuclear generating stations within Commonwealth Edison. This individual- reports to the Vice-President (Nuclear Operations) and has line responsibility for the administration, management, and direction of all Production Department activities at operating nuclear stations. The Division vice-President, Nuclear Stations, is also responsiLle for radiological emergency planning within Commonwealth Edison.

3.1 Generating Stations Emergency Plan (GSEP) [ l The Generating Stations Emergency Plan (GSEP) is a written radiological emergency plan that establishes the concepts, evaluation and assessment criteria, and protective actions that are necessary in order to limit and mitigate the consequences of potential or actual radiological emergencies. The GSEP provides the necessary prearrangements, directions, and organization so that all nuclear emergencies can be e Moctively and efficiently resolved in order to , safeguard station persoc k property, and the general public. The GSEP consists of two parts, a generic plan applicable to all generating stations, and a site specific annex for each nuclear generating station containing information and guidance that is unique to f L a particular station. 3.2 GSEP Organization The GSEP organization consists of directors and staff personnel who will ensure timely activation and implementation of any required emergency response. The GSEP organization can be divided into two functional areast onsite and offsite. 3.2.1- Onsite Emergency Organization The onsite GSEP organization consists of a Station Group and is primarily concerned with emergency response efforts necessary to control the plant during an incident. The Station Group functions under a Station Director for organizing and coordinating the emergency efforts at and within the immediate vicinity of the station. Collectively, members of the Station Group provide for the following activities during an emergency:

1) Plant systems operations;
2) Radiological survey and monitoring;
3) Firefighting; 3-1

7) Security of plant and access control;
8) Repair and damage contro1r
9) Personnel accountability;
10) Recordkeepinga
11) Communications.

I The responsibility for initial assessment of and response to an emergency normally rests with the Shift Engineer. The Station Diz wtor is responsible for making the initial determination of the severity of the emergency and for actuation of the GSEP as appropriate in accordance with the guidance provided in the generic GSEP, the site specific annex, and the station's implementing, procedures. The Shift Engineer is normally the initial Station 1 responsibilities and Director and has the Station Director's ' I authority until relieved of those responsibilities by the designated Station Director or his alternate (See Section'4.2). - 1 3.2.2 Offsite Emergency Organisation The Offsite GSEP organization consists of corporate personnel, division support, and environmental assessment and monitoring teams that provide long term support to the affected l as liaison with Fe deral, State, and local station as well 1 authorities. During the less serious emergencies, the GSEP Corporate Command Center Group is responsible for evaluating, coordinat'ing, and directing the overall company activities involved in coping with the emergency. The Corporate Command Center Group functions under a Director and its responsibilities include command and control, intelligence, logistics, engineering support, medical health care manpower physics, requirements consanications, accounting, legal, environmental, and information. During the more serious emergencies, the GSEP Corporate Command Center (CCC) Director is responsible for activating a GSEP Group at the affected station's Nearsite Emergency 2 Recovery i Operations Facility (EOF) . Once activated, this Recovery Group will direct, control, and coordinate all Commonwealth recovery efforts.

                                                                                  -   I 3-2 I

The Recovery Group functions under a Recovery- Manager with responsibilities consistent with the recommendations of the Institute of Nuclear Power Operations. (See Section 4.3). 3.3 Classification of Emergencies The GSEP provides for . classification of emergencies into five (5) categories. The first category, Transportation Accident, concerns an emergency involving the transportation of radioactive or other hasardous material from a generating station. The other four (4) categories: Notification of Unusual Event; Alert; Site Area Emergency; and General Emergency address emergencies of increasing steerity. (See Section 5.0) . Bereafter in this plan, Notification of Unusual Event. will be . referred to as Unusual Event, and Site Area Emergency will be referred to as Site Emergency. 3.4 Emergency Neasures Enargency measures to be taken for each class / category of emergency are also identified in the GSEP. Emergency seasures begin with ( activation of the emergency organisation. Subsequent measures are generally organized into assessment actions, corrective actions,

     ,._             protective actions; and aid to affected persons.                              (See Section 6.0).

i

     '               3.5 Facilities and Equipment The GSEP identifies onsite and 'offsite facilities a'vailable for emergency assessment, communications, first aid and medical care, and damage control.       Of particular importance are the emergency support centers. The centers are the Onsite Technical Support Center (TSC), the Onsite Operational Support Center (OSC), the Corporate Command Center (CL'C) and the Nearsite Emergency Operations Facility (EOF) .                                                    (Refer to Section 7.0).

3.5.1 Onsite Technical Support Center (TSC) The Onsite Technical Support Center (TSC) is utilized by plant management, technical, and engineering support personnel to support the Control Room command and control function, for assessment of plant status and potential offsite impact, and -for implementation of emergency actions. 3.5.2 Onsite Operation Support center (Osc) The Onsite Operational Support Center (OSC) is the location to which support personnel will report during an emergency and from l which they will be dispatched for usignment or duties in support of emergency operations. l 3-3

l .. .. I November, 1981  ! Revision 3 ' { 3.5.3 Corporate Command Center (CCC) The Corporate Command Center (CCC), located in dauntown Chicago, is the location from which the Corporate Command Center Director will normally direct a staff in evaluating, coordinating, and directing the overall company activities involved in coping with an emergency. If the Recovery Group is activated at the Nearsite EDF, then the CCC will be the location for a support staff reporting to the secovery Group. 3.5.4 Bearsite Eneroency Operations Facility (EOF) The Nearsite Emergency Operations Facility (BOF) is the location near the station that provides for the management of overall emergency response, the coordination of radiological assessments, and for management of recovery operations. The Nearsite EOF and the associated becovery Group function under a Recovery knager and are activated for all Site and General Emergency situations. Activation for other emergency situations is optional. 3.5 Maintaining anergency Preparedness The GSEP describes the manna to be empicyed to ensure that this plan will continue to be effective throughout the lifetimes of Comacnueelth nuclear stations. Emergency preparedness includes training, exercises - and drills, review and updating of the GSEP and procedures, as well as the administration of public information programs. (See Section 8.0) . s 3-4 l

November, 1981 Revision 3 4.0 ORGANIZATIONAL COtffROL OF EMERGENCIES meergency planning must consider the capabilities of the normal plant  ; organisation, the onsite and offsite emergency organisations of Commmonwealth l Edison, and the offsite non-Commonwealth Edison emergency response ' agencies. The initial phases of an emergency situation at a nuclear station will involve a relatively small number of individuals. These individuals must be capable of: (1) determining that an emergency exists; (2) providing initial classification and assessment; and (3) promptly notifying other groups and individuals in the emergency organisation. The san snt phases of the emergency situation may require an increasing augmentation to the emergency organisation. In the case of a General Emergency, this will result in the mobilisation of all personnel resources of Commonwealth Edison poder the direction of the GSEP Recovery Manager. The GSEP organisation described in this section generally parallels Commonwealth's normal organisation. - 4.1 Moraal Plant Organisation The normal plant organization is basically the same for all Commonwealth nuclear stations and is depicted in Figure 4.1-1. 4.1.1 Station Superintendent Each Commonwealth nuclear station is managed by a Station ( s Superintendent who is responsible for direct management of the station, including Industrial Relations, planning, coordination, ' direction of the operation, maintenance, refueling, and technical activities. The Station Superintendent is responsible for , compliance with the Station's Mac operating license, government regulations, ASME Code requirements, and the Commonwealth Quality Assurance Program. He also authorises the use of procedures contained in the Station Procedures Manual and is responsible for final approval and distribution of station reports. The Station Superintendent authorizes all modifications to the Station af ter the issuance of an Operating License and completion of preoperational testing. He forwards requests for modifications to the Commonwealth Edison Station Nuclear Engineering Department. The Superintendent supervises the Station's onsite review function as provided in Station Technical Specifications. During an emergency situation, the Station Superintendent normally acts as the GSEP Station Group Director. 4.1.2 Succession of Authority The Station Superintendent has overall responsibility for station operation. During periods when the Superintendent is unavailable, this responsiblity is designated to alternates who satisfy the requirements of ANSI N18.1-1971, " Experience Requirements for Plant Manager." l 4-1

s . November, 1981 Revision 3 4.1.3 shift Engineer The Shift Engineer on duty is responsible for operating the plant in compliance with the station operating license and the station operating procedures. During his shif t, the Shift Engineer is in charge of. the entire plant operation and is responsible for the plant being operated in a safe and reliable condition. He receives direction from the Operating Assistant Superintendent. The authority and responsibility of the operations shift supervisors and shift crews include:

1) The reactor operator's authority and responsibility for shutting down the reactor when he determines that the safety of the reactor is in jeopardy or when operating parameters escoed any of the reactor protection circuit setpoints and automatic shutdown does not occurs
2) The responsibility to determine the circumstacee, cause, and limits under which operations can safely proceed before the reactor it returned to power following a trip or an unscheduled or unexplained power reductiont
3) The senior reactor operator's responsibility to be ,

present at the plant and to provide direction for returning the reactor to power following a trip or a unscheduled or unexplained power reduction; -

4) The responsibility to adhere to the plant Technical Specifications:
5) The responsibility to review routine operating data to assure safe operation; and
6) The responsibility to adhere to plant operating procedures and the requirements for their use. (sowever, l

in case of emergency, operations personnel are authorized l to depart from approved procedures where necessary to prevent injury to personnel, including the public, or damage to the facility.) l A Shift Engineer is on duty 24 hours a day and is the initial GSEP Station Group Director and as such has the authority for l declaring an emergency and reconnending protective actions to local ! authorities. 4-2 l l f _ _ . _ _ .__

November, 1981 Revision 3 4.1.4 Minimum Shift Mannino All casumonwealth nuclear stations have capability at all times to perform detection, classification,. and notification functions required in the early phases of an emergency. Minimum shift manning at each nuclear generating station is specified in Figure 4.2-2. 4.1. 5 Health Physics Organization The Station Rad /Chen Supervisor is respor.sible for the health physics program and for handling and monitoring of radioactive materials. Normally reporting to the Rad /Chen Supervisor are health pigsicists, chemists, foremen, and technicians. ' 4.2 Station Group i The GSEP Station Group is the onsite emergency organisation which is activated during an emergency. The Station Group functions neder a-Station Director responsible for carrying out all onsite emergency , efforts as well as for carrying out the Commonwealth initial offsite environs monitoring efforts which are necessary for assessing plant , releases. A diagram of the GSEP Station Group organisation is shown in I Figure 4.2-1. s The Shift Engineer, as initial Station Dirwtot, will take immediate action during an emergency and will activate the GSEP Station Group as , appropriate. In the Shift Engineer's absence, the line of succession is:  ;

1) Shif t Forement
2) Senior Nuclear Station Operator.

! The Shift Engineer, or his alternate, may be relieved of the Station Director position of responsibility when it is assumed by the designated Station Director or the Station Director's alternate. An individual assigned the duty as a shift technical advisor shall

be available to the Control Room within 10 minutes of being called. It is the responsibility of the shift technical advisor to diagnose off-normal events and advise the operating shift accordingly.

NUREG-0654 Criyterion II.B.S states that " licensee must be able to augment on-shif t capabilities within a short period after declaration of an emergency." It further defines that short period as 30 and 60 minutes. Commonwealth Edison considers these timeframes to be the goal for on-shift augmentation. However, Cosumonwealth Edison will not commit to rigid, inviolate times due to the diversity of residential patterns for the stations' staffs, possible adverse weather conditions, and possible road congestion. This position is consistent with that of the NRC as stated in a letter dated October 26, 1981 from W.J. Direks to Dr. D.F. Knuth of KNC, Inc. 4-3

l l Nowaber, 1981 Revision 3 To facilitate meeting this commitment, commonwealth Edison will estahlfah a 24-Bour duty-call individual who would be notified first after a station emergency. This individual would initiate a prioritized notification (can-list) procaiure. The procedure identifies individuals who are capble of 'fulfining the specific response functions which are listed in GEEP Figure 4.2-3, Guidance for Augmentation of the Onsite Emergency Organisation within 60. minutes. GSEP Figure 4.2-3 was developed based on the functions listed in Table B-1 of NUERG-0654. The can-list procedures are prioritized considering least travel time of station staff. All GSEP Ctation Group personnel shan have the authority to perform asseigned duties in a mannar consistent with the objectives - of this plan. The mejor responsibilities and duties of the station Group directors are given in the fo H owing tables:

1) Table 4.2.1 - Station Directors
2) Table 4.2 Operations Director;
3) Table 4.2 Technical Director;
4) Table 4.2 Maintenance Director;
5) Table 4.2 Stores Director; ,
6) Table 4.2 Administrative Director;
7) Table 4.2 Security Director;
8) Table 4.2 Rad / Chem Director.

In addition to the onsite emergency organization (Station Group), the station's resources are augmented by the offsite Gsty organization and nosh:cumonwealth support groups. l 4-4 .

November, 1981 Revision 3 4.3.2 offsite GSEP Organization for Emergencies of Great Extent During incidents at nuclear stations that are classified as Site or General Emergencies, the GSEP Recovery Group will be activated at the Nearsite Emergency Operr' ions Facility. In many instances, activation of the Recovery Group requires that desiginated directors of the Corporate r%== mad Center staff ralocate to the Nearsite EDF and assume additional responsibilities for assigned positions. The Recovery Group functions under a Recovery Manager who is responsible for the overall company activities aimed at restoring the affocted station to a safe status. The Corporate Command Center staff provides support to the Recovery Group under this organisational arrangement. The offsite GSEP organisation for serious energeacies (e.g., site and 'G3neral Emergency) is depicted in Figure 4.3-2. Tnis organisation consists of the following directors whose major duties are antineated in the referenced tables:

November, 1981 ' Revision 3 'T following a radiological incident as outlined in the DOE { Radiological Assistance Plan. The immediate objective of the DOE Chicago operations Office would be to rapidly dispatch a team of specialists to the incident site where the team would

1) Evaluate the hasard; and l 2) Take or recommend action to counteract and control any j acute hasard.

If Commonwealth' Edison deems that assistance from DOE is necessary or desirable, the Recovery Manager, the Corporate en===ad Center Director, or the Station Director would notify the DOE Chicago Operations Office. Assistance provided by DOE shall not abridge State or local authority. [ The resources of the Radiological Assistance Plan (RAF) and the Interagency Radiological Assistance Plan (IRAP) are being merged to form a Federal Radiological Monitoring and Assessment Plan < (FRMAP). The concept of operations for the PRMAP is basically the - same as the RAP and IRAP. The main purpose of FRMAP is to establish an organisation and operating arrangement to be used in the event of a major accidental release or loss of control of radioactive material seriously endangering the public health and safety. 4.6.5 The U.S. Coast Guard The U.S. Coast Guard patrols and ensures the safety of navigable waterways in the United States. The U.S. Coast Guard shall be promptly notified of any oil or hasardous substance discharges into rivers or lakes or radioactive contamination of rivers or lakes under Coast Guard jurisdiction at levels requiring assistanes to effect protective actions. (Refer to Section 9.3). The U.S. Coast Guard will be contacted by the Illinois

       . Department of Conservation in the event of an incident at a nuclear j         power plant.      The Coast Guard will be responsible for officially closing the waterways to all commercial traffic.

(Refer to the State plan). l 4.6.6 U.S. Army Corps of Engineers The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers controls barge and boat traffic at locks and dans on navigable waterways in the United States. The Corps of Engineers will be contacted by the Illinois Department of Conservation in the event of. an incident.at a nuclear power plant. The Corps will be responsible for closing their locks and dans to all waterway traffic leading to the affected area, allowing only traffic leaving the area. (Refer to the State Plan). 4-46

November, 1981 Revision 3 4.6.7 Federal Bureau of Investiestion (FBI) Support from the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) is available through its Statutory responsibility based in Public Law and the US code, and thecogh a memorandum of understanding for cooperation with the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. Notification to the FBI of emergencies in which they would have an interest will be through provisions of thw Nuclear Station's Security Plan, or by the NRC. 4.7 The State of Illinois The state of Illinois has the statutory responsibility and authority for protecting the health and safety of the public in Illinois. The state of Illinois has developed an " Illinois Plan for Radiological Accidents" ~ #(IPRA) . This plan was developed in accordance with the guidance suggested by NUREG 0396 and NUREG 0654. This section provides a summary of the essential elements of the State Plan. The Illinois Plan for Radiological Accidents (IPkA) .is based upon the

   ,     implementation of five basic functions:

i o Command and Coordination o Notification and Narning o Accident Assessment o Protective Actions o Parallel Actions Figure 4.7-1 depicts the overall concept of operations for the Illinois Plan for Radiological Accidents (IPRA). 4.7.1 Governor of the State of Illinois The Governor of the State of Illinois has overall command authority for both the radiological and nonradiological aspects of a nuclear incident. The Governor will make the final recommendation for protective actions, and will serve as the State's primary spokesperson. 4-47 _ _ - - - - =. - - - - -

November, 1981 Revision 3 .1 4.7.2 Illinois Department of Nuclear Safety (DIES) Illinois Department of Nuclear Safety has both the command authority for radiologic?1 aspects of a nuclear incident and the responsibility for performing various radiologic 1 functions. These functions include food, water and milk control, radiation exposure control for the general public, and confirmatory accident assessment. During an emergency situation, the DasS will make protective action recommendations to the Governor and the Illinois Emerqtacy Services and Disaster Agency. The DeIS response to a nuclear incident utilizes two functional su H roups. They are the Radiological Emergency Assessment Center (REAC) and the Radiological Assessment Field Team (RAFT) . l l 4.7.2.1 Radiological Emergence Assessment Center (REAC) l ta DesS has established ,REAC at its Springfield headquarters. REAC will serve as the command location for all (State-related) radiological aspects of a nuclear incident. The Associate Director of DNS, or his designated alternate, is in command of REAC. 4.7.2.2 Radiological Assessment Field Team (RAFT) RAFT has been organized to perform the field radiological functions of confirmatory accident assessments

during a nuclear emergency. RAFT consists of a Mobile Command l Center, a Mobile Nuclear I,aboratory, and all monitoring and sampling teams.

4.7.3 Illinois Emergency Services and Disaster Agency (ESDA) The Illinois Emergency Services and Disaster Agency (ESDA) has command authority for the non-radiological aspects of a nuclear incident and provides the overall coordination of the emergency resycase. The Illinois ESDA has the programma*,1c responsibility to implement protective actions as recommended for the public by the DNS and the Governor. The State of Illinois has defined four levels of operational response; each level requires increasing degrees of response from State and local agencies. An immediate level of operational response , for a given emergency (GSEP) classification will be required so that the level of response will accord with the accident classification. The asanisium operational response levels for given incident classifi-cations can be summarized as follows: i 4-44 l _

November, 1981 Revision 3 Level 1 Unusual Event Notification of ESDA and DNS Level 2 Alert Notification of ESDA and its key personnel, DNS and ' its key personnel, and key local governments. REAC will be activated. I 1 l Level 3 Site Emergency Same as Level 2 plus the following: RAFT will be dispatched to the affected siter ESDA will activate the State EDQ county and local governments will activate their EOCs and activate their public notification system. Level 4 General Emergency j motification of all parties involved in the i operational response. Activation of all operations and command centers asacciated with the operational response. REAC will be activated and RAFT will be dispatched. Local governments will activate their public notification system and implement protective action. The operational response level for the Unusual Event, Alert, and Site Emergency may be increased to a higher level if deemed necessary. The State's operational response to an emergency utilises six (6) operational centers: o State Emergency Operations Center (SEOC) o State Command Post (SCP) o State staging Center (SSC) o Community Command Post (CCP) - o County Emergency Operations Center (CEOC) o Local Government Emergency Operations Center (LGEOC) The following sections .will discuss the role of these operational centers. Depending upon the nature of the emergency, one or more of these centers may not be activated. e 4-49

November,1981 Revision 3 w., 4.7.3.1 State Emergency Operations Center (SEOC) The SEOC (manned 24 hours per day) is located in Springfield, Ininois and is the central command post for state agencies. The primary function of the SEOC is to coordinate the State's response with local governments. For . this purpose, the SEOC is staffed during emergencies by representatives of State -agencies under the overall direction of the ESDA Internal Support Coordinator. 4.7.3.2 State Command Post (SCP) The SCP will be located near or within the affected plume exposure DS and is responsible for the allocation of state agency resources and personnel in support of local government actions. 4.7.3.3 State stagine Center (SSC) The Shc will be located near the affected plume exposure EPs and win serve as an extension of the SEOC. Staging center personnel will be responsible for susunarizing personnel assignments. The SSC win also be used to store state resources, such as TLDs and potassium iodide. 4.7.3.4 Community Command Post (CCP) Por certain sites, particularly those near major metropolitan areas and/or contiguous states, a Community i Command Post will be utilized. The CCP will be similar to the SEOC in that, it win provide a central meeting place for representatives from local governments and contiguous states for tasks like response management and radiological assessment updaus. 4.7.3.5 County Emergency Operations Center (CEOC) In those areas without a CCP, the County EOC will serve as the primary coordinating center for local government response within the county's jurisdiction and for coordination between counties. 4.7.3.6 Local Government Emergency Operations Center (LGEOC) The LGEOC will serve as the command post for organizing each local government's implementation of protective actions. j 4-5) w= w~--- - - -.= .

November, 1981 Revision 3 l 4.7.4 Notification Following the preliminary notification by the affected nuclear station, the state will initiate a notification procedure commen-sura *e with the reported emergency. (Refer to the state Plan). 4.7.5 Accident Assessm_enj Upon notification of an emergency, the Dus will conduct a confirmatory accident assessment. This aseesament will involve the determination of the source term, the projection of the atmospheric dispersion of the release, j and the deposition of the radioactive material if appropriate. 4.7.6 Protective Actions l The recommendation for protective actions for the public . l during the preliminary phase of a fixed nuclear facility incident will, of necessity, he based upon the preliminary assessment made by the facility. After the confirmatory accident assessment, the recommendation for protective actions, if appropriate, will be made by the Director of DNS to the Governor and the Director of ESDA. Such a recommendation will be based upon the projected population dose e.s determined through the confirmatory accident assessment and/or the Petential for such exposure. G Following the determination of appropriate protective actions,. implementation of these actions shall be under the command and control of the ESDA which shall ensure completion in accordance with the State plan. Protective actions includes evacuation; shelter;' access control; food, water, and milk control; and protective actions for emergency workers. 4.7.7 Parallel Actions Parallel actions are performed by the state after or in , conjunction with protective actions. Parallel actions consist of: l

1) Law enforcement;
2) Social services;
3) Emergency medical services;
4) Radiation exposure control; and
5) Re-entry.

November, 1981 Revision 3 4.8 The State of Iowa Much of the Emergency Planning zone for

  • the Quad Cities Nuclear Station lies within the State of Iowa. The State of Iowa has developed an " Iowa Emergency Plan". This section provides a summary of the essential elements of the Iowa Emergency Plan.

{ 4.8.1 Protective Actions l The State of Iowa uses the following criteria in deciding upon specific protective actions during a radiological emergency:

1) EPA Manual of Protective Actions Guides and Protective Actions for Nuclear Incidents; and
2) Food and Drug Administration guidance regarding contani-nation of human food and animal feeds published in the Federal negister on December 15, 1978.

The Governor or, in his absence, the Lt. Governor win make evacuation decisions. These decisions wiu be coordinated with the local government entities involved.

                     ,                   4.8.2   office of Disaster Services The State Office of Disaster Services win coordinate an activities of State agencies and departments in support of emergency response activities. These activities will be coordinated from the Iowa State BOC in Des Moines.

4.8.3 Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) i The State Department of Environmental Quality is responsible l for supervision in obtaining samples of earth, vegetation, air, t water, and such samples that may be required to determine the extent l and degree of environmental contamination. The DEQ will identify

industrial, chemical, biological, and radiological hazards generated by an emergency.

4.8.4 State Hygienic Laboratory (SHL) The State Hygienic Laboratory located in Iowa City, Iowa win perform radiological assessment efforts for the Department of ! Environmental Quality during an emergency, since the SEL is better equipped to perform such efforts. l i During a serious radiological emergency at the Quad Cities Nuclear Power Station, an Emergency Operating Center win be j activated at the Scott County Courthouse in Davenport, Iowa. Environmental sampling conducted by the State of Iowa win be coordinated from the Scott County BOC by the Director of the State 4-53

November, 1981 Revision 3 Hygienic Laboratory (or his designated alternate). During an emergency, communications shall be maintained between the Illinois Department of Nuclear Safety in Springfield, Illinois and the Scott County EOC for the purpose of mutual cooperation between Illinois and Iowa with regard to radiological assessment efforts. 4.8.5 Local Government Local governments are responsible for overall emergency' i preparedness at the local level. This includes preparation of emergency plans and designation of assembly areas and congregate care facilities within jurisdiction areas. The local governments are responsible for implementing ' the actual protective actions taken, including evacuation. 4.9 The State of Wisconsin A portion of the Emergency Planning Sone for the Sion Nucl~ ear Station lies within the State of Wisconsin. The State of Wisconsin has developed a ' State of Wisconsin Peacetime Radiological Energency Response Plan." This section provides a an-ary of the essential elements of the Wisconsin emergency plan. 4.9.1 Concept of Operations Initially, responsibility for responding to a radiological emergency, including evacuation, rests with local governments and j their emergency services. Notification, by either local authorities or legal possessors of uncontrolled materials, to the Division of Emergency Government D EG) that a radiological emergency exists will bring in the resources of the Division of Health, Radiation Protection Section to assess and evaluate the situation and determine protective action. State agency notification for assistance and coordination of response operations of the state agencies in support of local government will be performed -by the DEG as determined by the Governor. 4.9.2 Division of Emergency Government The DEG is to provide the principal support response to emergencies in the State of Wisconsin, coordinate the responses of other state agencies, brief the Governor of emergency situations, and activate the State Emergency Operating Center in Madison, if necessary. 4.9.3 Division of Health The Chief of the Radiation Protection Section, Bureau of Health, is the State Radiological Coordinator (SRC) for peacetime 4-54

o .* . November, 1981 Revision 3 radiological emergencies of the State Radiological Response (RAD RESP) Team. Team members are personnel of the section, as designated by the Sac, augmented by selected personnel from the DEG and other state agencies trained specifically for radiological incidents. Environmental sampling conducted by the State of Wisconsin followiing a serious radiological emergency will be coordinated from the Madison EOC by the Sac or his designated alternate. In the case of a serious radiological emergency at sion Station, communications shall be maintained between the Madison EOC and the Illinois Depart-ment of Nuclear Safety in Springfield, Illinois for the purpose of mutual cooperation between Illinois and wisconsin with regard to radiological assessment efforts. The State of Niaconsin utilises guidance promulgated by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services as the basis for determining what protective actions are necessary during a radiological incident. r 4-55

1 November,1981 ) 4 Revision 3 l 5.0 CIASSIFICATION OF E8nemw'T CONDITIONS ( The GREP describes five mutually exclusive classifications for emergency j conditions, covering the postulated spectrum of emergency situations, l Each of the five (5) emergency classifications are characterized by Emergency Action Levels, or initiating conditions. These initiating conditions have ne t, for the most part, been selected so as to infer any immediate rmed to implement protective actions, but rather to ensure adequate time is available to confirm inplant readings by implementing assessment measures. This section describes the GSEP emergency classification system and gives generic example initiating conditions for each class. Additionally, the GSEP l Station Director may declare an incident to fall within a specific emergency classification if he decides that the incident is of equivalent magnitude to , the criteria used to define the emergency class. Each class is' associated l with a particular set of immediate actions to be taken to cope with l situations. (These actions-are described in Section 6.0). Refer to the following tables:

1) Table 5.0 Description of Transportation Accident
 '                            2) Table 5.0 Description of Unusual Event
3) Table 5.0 Description of Alert
4) Table 5.0 Description of Site Emergency
5) Table 5.0 Description of General Emergency -

As a minimum, site specific annemes shall include applicable initiating conditions given in the tables referenced above, and where possible, will relate those conditions with plant instrumentation readings. In some instanews, it may be inappropriate for a particular station to adopt initiating conditions exactly equivalent to those conditions specified in this generic plan. In addition to the initiating conditions given in this generic GSEP, site specific annexes should categorize postulated accidents contained in the Stations' Final Safety Analysis Reports. i 5-1

6.1 Commonwealth Emergency Response Actions Durig an emergency situation at one of its nuclear stations, Commonwealth Edison has the responsibility to implement appropriate emergency measures. These measures includes o Notification of responsible authorities; i o Activation of the GSEP organization; o Assessment of the emergency situations o Initiation of actions to correct or mitigate an emergency at or near the source of the problem; o Recommendation of protective actions for the offsite public; i I o Initiation of protective measures for onsite personnel; and o Provision of aid to affected onsite personnel. l

 /~                   When  Commonwealth     Edison initially notifies State or local authorities of an emergency condition, the following information should be transmitted as a minimum:
1) same and title of the reporting person;
2) Location and type of incident (i.e., the emergency classification);
3) Date and time of incident;
4) Whether a release of radioactive material is taking place; 1

l 5) Potentially affected population and areas; 1

6) Whether protective measures may be necessary; and
7) Verification to confirm authenticity of call.

Figure 6.1-1 shows the initial notification scheme for declared GSEP emergencies. l l 6-1 l l

November, 1981 Revision 3 Pollowup messages to State and local authorities shall contain the ' fellcwing information if it is known and appropriate:

1) Type of actual or projected release (airborne, waterborne, surface spill), and estimated duration / impact times;
2) Estimate of quantity of radioactive material released or being released and the points and height of release;
3) Chemical and physical form of released material, including estimates of the relative quantities and concentration of noble gases, iodines, and particulates;
4) Noteorological conditions at appropriate levels (wind speed, direction (to and from), indicator of stability; form of precipitation, if any);
5) Actual or projected dose rates at site boundary; projected integrated dose at site boundary;
6) Projected dose rates and integrated dose at the projected peak and at about 2, 5, and 10 miles, including sector (s) affected; *
7) Estimate of any surface radioactive contamination inplant, onsite, or offsite; '
                                                                                                              )

Some of the parameters to be monitore3 would include reactor coolant system pressure, reactor / pressuriser water level, containment pressure, containment radiation level, effluent monitor readings, and area radiation monitor read-ings. Upon installation of the Safety Parameter Display System (SPDS), these parameters and others will be directly available for display in the Control Ecom, Onsite TSC, the CCC, and nearsite EOF. At this time, important plant parameters can only be monitored from the control noon itself. 6.2.2 Radiological Measurements Inplant radiological measurements will provide information that will help determine the nature, extent, and source of emergency conditions, Systems are . installed to permit reactor coolant and containment atmosphere sampling even un(cr severe accident condi-tions. , i Offsite environmental teams will be dispatched by Common-wealth to perform a variety of functions during conditions that involve releases of radioactive materials from the plant. In addition to beta / gamma field onasurements, the change-out of TLDs and air sampler cartridges may be performed. Other actions will include soil, water, and vegetation

  • sampling, as well as plume location werification.

6.2.3 Dose Projections for the Offsite Public Dose assessment activities shall be conducted with an emphasis on determining the necessity for protective action. Radiological and meteorological instrumentation readings shall be used to project dose rates at predetermined distances from the station, and to determine the integrated dose received. The primary l method of estimating offsite doses is through the .use of an Offsite Dose Calculation System described in Section 7.3.3. 6-13

i November, 1981 Revision 3 - 6.2.4 Core Damage Assessmen3 To aid GSEP at d Control Room personnel in .an ascessment of core damage during an emergency condition, each site specific annex shall contain a plot of activity (Ci) versus containment radiation reading (R/hr) for each teactor unit at the site (if of different design). Four points shall be marked on this plot representing:

1) Core release of 254 iodines and 1004 noble gases

(

Reference:

Reg. Guide 1.3) : 2). 1004 release of gap activity (References Reg. Guide 1.25) ; i

3) 0.2% core release of iodines and noble gases (for BWRs) or 2.04 core release of iodines and noble gases (for PWRs) (references Reg. Guide 4.2); and
4) 1004 release of coolant activity; at t = 0 following an accident, assuming an immediate release of said activities into the containment.

6.3 Protective Actions for the Offsite Public 6.3.1 Commonwealth Recommendations for Protective Action < Por incidents involving actual or imminent releases of I radioactive material to the atmosphere, the current issue of the

        " Manual of Protective Action Guides and Protective Actions for Nuclear Incidents" (EPA 520/1-75-001) will be used as the basis for                ,

recommendations for protective actions for the offsite public. The l EPA Guide provides Protective Action Guides (PAGs) for whole body j external gamma radiation and for inhalation of radioactive material in an airborne plume. The most effective . actions to be recommended to the public

 ~

are evacuetion, sheltering, and access control. Evacuation potentially provides the grea*,est margin of protection and should be the primary means of protective emergency action in the event of a gaseous fission product release. On the other hand, because sheltering may be implemented in less time than evacuation, it may be the protective action of choice if rapid evecuation is impeded for any reason. Also, since sheltering is less disruptive than evacuation, it may be the protective action of choice when the dose reduction factor associated with shelter is adequate to reduce the l projected dose to less than PAG 1evels. Access control is an j effective action to avoid exposure of personnel who might otherwise ) enter high exposure areas unnecessarily. 6-14

       . s November, 1981 Revision 3 Por incidents involving contamination of food, water, or
         ,                milk, protective action recommendations will be consistent with the guidance of the U.S. Pood and Drug Ad:sinistration published in the Pederal Register, Vol. 43, No. 242, December 15, 1978.                              The PDA guidance includes PACS for two levels:             a preventive and an emergency PAG.       The preventive PAG is a 1.5 res projected dose commitment to the thyroid or a 0.5 rem whole body dose commitment.

The emergency PAG is 10 times the preventive PAG, or a 15 rem thyroid or a 5 rem whole body dose commitment. Protective action (such as placing dairy cows on uncontani-nated stored feed) should be taken whenever a contaminating event is projected to expose an individual at the preventive level PAG. When the projected dose reaches the emergency' level, food stuffs should be withheld from commerce until a judgement is made on condemnation or other appropriate action.

                        .            Tables 6.3-1, 6.3-2, and 6.3-3 summarise possible recommended protective actions to be made to state and local agencies during an emergency.
  • 6.3.2 Notification of the Public motification capability exists for members of the public within the Plume Exposure Emergency Planning zone surrounding operating nuclear stations. This capability consists of public alerting sirens and local emergency vehicles equipped with public address (PA) systems.

, The emergency vehicles (such as fire department or police vehicles) will travel within portion of the EPs and broadcast a message over the PA systems. This message will inform citizens of an accident at the nuclear station and will advise the citizens to either take shelter or evacuate. Also, the message will instruct the residents to tune in to, a local radio station. The sirens will alert the citizens to tune in to the radio station for specific instructions and information related to the emergency. ' The residents of the 10-mile EPZ receive informative brochure (described in Section 8.4) which describes possible actions to be taken during an emergency. The brochure identifies the radio stations which will be broadcasting instructions and protective action recommendations. The actual means for providing notification to the public will be more specifically addressed in the site-specific annexes. 6-15

November, 1981 . Revision 3 6.3.3 Implementation of Offsite Protective Measures State and local governments have the responsibility to coordinate actions taken to protect the pchlic during emergency situations. Refer to state and local emergency response plans for itotective action information for offsite areas. (Also refer to Sections 4.7, 4.8, and 4.9 of this plan) . Time estimates for evacuation of the plume exposure EPZ surrounding each Commonwealth nuclear station appear in each site specific annex. These evacuation time estimates may be used by the CCC Environmental / Emergency Coordinator as an aid in determining the recommended protective action, for the offsite public (i.e., sheltering or evacuation) . d i i 6-16 l l

November, 1981 Revision 3 6.4 Protective Actions for Onsite Personnel 6.4.1 Protective Cover, Evacuation, Personnel Accountability During an emergency situation, an assembly and evacuation of onsite nonessential personnel should be provided for by the Station l Director whenever: l l 1) It is determined that projected doses should be avoided by a relocation of personnels or

2) A Site or General Emergency is declared; or
3) Other dangers exist that present a threat to the safety of onsite personnel as determined by the Station Director.

All nuclear stations have a siren system to signal personnel to assemble in previous 2- designated areas. Persons not having an emergency response assagnment, including visitors and contractor personnel, are required to assemble when notified by the siren. l l 6.4.2 Use of Protective Equipment and Supplies During the course of an emergency, protective actions will be considered to minimise the effects of radiological exposures or - contamination problems associated with personnel who must work ) within the restricted area of the affected site. Measures that will be considered are:

1) Distribution of respirators;
2) Use of protective clothing; and
3) Use of thyroid blocking agents.

The criteria for issuance of respiratory protection and protective clothing are described in Commonwealth radiation protection standards and/or site specific radiation / chemistry procedures. The use of thyroid blocking agents is recommended when a l projected dose of 10 rem is exceeded for a worker's tnyroid. This is the value recommended by NCRP-55, " Protection of the Thyroid Gland in the Event of Releases of Radioiodine." The Commonwealth Medical Director is responsible for maintaining a supply of thyroid blocking agents within the company and for establishing the specific policy for its use. 6-20

November, 1981 Revision 3 6.4.3 Contamination control Measure = During an emergency, provisions will be made for preventing or minimizing direct or -Mat. ingestion exposure to radioactive materials deposited on the ground or other sarfaces. Commonwealth radiation protection standards describe general methada to be used in con *==ination control. 6.5 Aid to Affected Onsite Personnel 6.5.1 Emergency Personnel Exposure Eoing licensed by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, all Commonwealth nuclear stations maintain personnel exposure control programs in accordance with 10CFR20. The Commonwealth Edison Radiation Protection Standards include guidance that should be used for limiting personnel exposures under emergency conditions. When-ever.possible, the prior approval of the Station Superintendent,.the h1th Medical Director, and the station's radiation protec-tion supervisor should be secured before exposing individuals to does equivalents beyond 10CFR20 limits. In addition to the guidance of the commonwealth Edison Radiation Protection Standards, emergency personnel exposures shall be limited to the recommendations of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency as follows: 1

1) Emergency Workers - This applies to conditions where it is desirable to enter an emergency area to protect facilities, eliminate serious unplanned release of effluents, or to control fires.

a) Planned whole body dose equivalent shall not exceed 25 rema> b) Planned dose equivalent to the thyroid shall not exceed 125 rens. ,

2) Life Saving Actions - This applies to search for and removal of injured persons or entry to the emergency area to prevent conditions that would injure other people.

a) Dose Equivalent to the whole body shall not exceed 75 remst

                                            ~.

b) No limit for the thyroid since total loss of thyroid function could be allowable. The emergency limits outlined in this section shall be voluntary and be limited to once in a lifetime. 6-21

l November, 1981 Revision 3 - 6.5.2 Decontamination and First Aid 4.5.2.1 General There are no resident physicians, nurses, or industrial hygienists on the staff of Commonwealth's generating stations. Bowever, the radiation protection personnel at each nuclear station are experienced in control of radioactive contamination and decontamination work. The radiation protection personnel and certain supervisors are also trained and qualified to administer first aid. These individuals are annually. retrained in first aid by the station training staff. At least one of these individuals is available on shift at all times. D e functions of station personnel in handling onsite injured 1 people are:

1) afford rescuer
2) administer first aid including such resuscitative measures as are deemed necessary; i
3) begin decontamination procedures; and
4) arrange suitable transportation to a hospital when required.,

6.5.2.2 Initial First Aid Primary attention will be directed to the actual factors involved in the treatment of casualties, such as: control of bleeding, resuscitation including heart and lung, ' protection of wousads from bacterial or radioactive contami-nation and the' immobilization of fractures. 6.5.2.3 Decontamination l Nuclear Station radiation protection personnel will I provide an initial estimate of the magnitutde of surface contamination of the injured and preliminary estimates of total body dose to the injured. Directed by radiation protection personnel, the station will carry out primary rapid and simple decontamination of the surface of the body when possible and advisable before transportation of the injured to a designated hospital. I 6-22 1 b

November, 1981 Revision 3 6.5.3 Medical Transportation l Arrangements are made by each nuclear generating station for prompt ambulance service for transporting persons with injuries ' involving radioactivity from the respective generating station to designated hospitals. Such service is available on a 24-hour per day basis and is confirmed in writing. Radiation monitoring services Anall be provided by Commonwealth whenever it becomes necessary to use the ambulance service for the transportation of contaminated persons. l Injured persons will be transported to a hospital or other medical facility in a prudent and timely manner. Those persons contaminated with radioactive material will be taken to the desig-nated hospital and be accompanied by a person qualified in radi-ation monitoring techniques. 6.5.4. Medical Treatment 6.5.4.1 Hospital Facilities Arrangements, confirmed in writing, are maintained by Commonwealth with a qualified hospital located in the vicinity of each nuclear generating station for receiving and treating of contaminated or exposed persons. Such nearby hospital facilities shall be utilised for decontamination and initial treatment of persons with injuries involving radio-activity and requiring immediate hospital care. Commonwealth will provide medical consultants to aid in any special care necessary at these facilities. Arrangements, confirmed in writing, are also maintained by the corporate office with a qualified major medical facility well equipped and staffed for dealing with pertans having radiation injuries and whenever necessary, ' such persons will be transferred to this major hospital facility for extended specialised treatment.. Currently, Northwestern Memorial Bospital in Chicago, Illinois serves as this hospital. Commonwealth will have available to the' staff of this hospital its specialist who will provide the direc-tion of the special care necessary for the treatment of persons having radiation injuries. 6.5.4.2 Radiological Medical Consultants Because of the specialized nature of the diagnosis and treatment of radiation injuries, Commonwealth's corporate I medical office maintains a roster of physicians especially l competent in this area of n;edicine and available for the 1 6-23

November, 1981 Revision 3 '- care of persons with these special problems. Included in this roster are experts in the ' treatment of internal contamination, cutaneous radiation injury, total body irradiation and other potential problems related to exposure to ionizing radiation or radioactive materials. These specialists may be in direct charge of the care of these patients or serve as consultants to other physicians in charge of their care'. 1

November, 1981 Revision 3 7.0 EMERGIWCY FACILITIES AND EQUIPMENT 7.1 Emergency Control Centers Station Control Room 7.1.1 The nuclear station control room shall be the initial onsite center of emergency control. Control Room personnel must evaluate and effect control over the initial aspects of an emergency and initiate activities necessary for coping with the initial phases of an emergency until such time that support centers can be activated. These activities shall includes o continuous evaluation of the magnitude and potential consequences of an incident , o Initial corrective actions; and o motification of appropriate individuals as outlined in Section 6.0 of this plan. Support centers provided are an Onsite Technical Support Center, and Onsite Operational Support Center, a Corporate Command Center, and a Nearsite Emergency Operations Facility. 7.1.2 Onsite Technical Support Center (TSC)

                                                         ~

I Each nuclear generating station has established an Onsite l Technical Support Center (TSC) for use during emergency situations by plant management, technical, and engineering support personnel. When activated during an emergency, the Onsite TSC shall be manned by sufficient personnel to: o support the Control-Aoom command and control functions o Assess the plant status and potential offsite impact; and o Coordinate emergency response actions. Staffing of the Onsite TSC shall be as directed by the Station Director. Reporting initially to the Onsite TSC for the Site and General Emergency shall be all directors of the Station Group, i.e., the Station Director, Operations Director, Technical Director, Maintenance Director, Stores Director, Administrative Director, Security Director, and Rad / Chem Director. (The Shift Engineer when acting as initial Station Director would not report to the Onsite TSC) . Other personnel may augment the Onsite TSC staff upon approval of the Station Director. 7-1

November, 1981 l Revision 3 i Each Creite TSC is in close proximity to the Control Room and is sized for at least 25 persons and supporting equipment. of the 25 persons, five will ne considered to represent the NRC and one' person will be considered to represent the State of Illinois. At l l Quad Cities and Zion Stations, an additional slot per station will be held for a contiguous state representative. Personnel in the Onsite TSC shall be protected from radiological hazards, including direct radiation and airborne contaminants under accident conditions to the same degree as control Room personnel. To ensure adequate radiological protection, permanent radiation monitoring systems have been installed in the onsite TSC. These systems continuously indicate radiation dose rates and airborne radioactivity inside the onsite TSC while in use. In addition, protective breathing apparatus (full face air purifying respirators) and thyroid blocking agents are available for use as required. t The Onsite TSC has access to a complete set of as-built drawings and other records, including general arrangement diagrams, P& ids, piping system isometrics, and the electrical schematics. The Onsite plant data, TSCin(will real have) time tothe becapability to record and display used by knowledgeable individuals vital j l responsible for engineering and management support of reactor ~ operations, and for implementation of emergency procedures. 7.1.3 onsite coerational {apport Center (OSC) Each nuclear ger. rating station has established an Onsite operational Support C=nter (OSC) . The Onsite OSC is the location to which operations support personnel will report during an emergency and from which they will be dispatched for assignments or duties in suFport of emergency cerrations. Personnel who may report to the onsite OSC includes o Opezating personnel not assigned to the Control Rooms o Radwaste personnel; and o Rad / Chem Technicians. The Operations Director shall designate an individual from the Station Operations staff to manage and supervise the activities of the Onsite OSC. A limited inventory of supplies will be kept in the Onsite OSC. This inventory will include respirators, protective clothing, portable lighting, and portable survey instruments. 1 7-2 -

If the Recovery Group is activated at the Nearsite EDF, then the CCC will be the location for a support staif reporting to the Recovery Group. In addition to the above functions, the CCC win serve as the corporate environmental center where environmental monitoring win be directed and offsite dose projections performed under the direction of the CCC Environmental Director. ' 7.1.5 Hearsite Emergency Operations Facility (EDF) The Nearsite Emergency Operations Facility (EOF) is the , location near the generating station that provides for the management of overan emergency respon,Te, the coordination of radiological assessments, 'and for management of ' recovery operations. The Nearsite EOF and associated Recovery Group function under a Recovery Manager and are activated for all Site and General anergency situations.

l . November, 1981 Revision 3 7.2 Communication Systems commonwealth has extensive and reliable communication systems installed at its generating stations, system power supply offic'e, corporate headquarters, and Division load dispatching offices. These systems include the use of normal and special telephone lines, radio, microwave voice channels, mobile radio units, and handi-talkies. For the purposes of GSEP -niications, the system is addressed in terms of functional areas as described in the following sections. 7.2.1 Nuclear Accident Reporting System (MMtS) The Nuclear Accident Reporting System is a dedicated telephone voice communications system that has been iristalled for the purpose of notifying State and local authorities of declared nuclear emergencies. This system links together the station Control Rooms, the Corporate Command Center, Onsite Technical Support Centers, System Power Supply Office, Nearsite Emergency Operations Facilities, and State and local authorities as appropriate. (See Figure 7.2-1). The State of Illinois Emergency Services & Disaster Agency, in cooperation with Commonwealth Edison, is responsible for the development and esecution of all steps necessary to ensure continuous operation of the MMts. 7.2.2 Communications for Command and Control Commonwealth has established four separate dedicated communication systems that ensure reliable and timely exchange of information necessary to provide offective command and control over any emergency responsa. These systems includes o A microwave . voice channel between the Corporate Command Center and the Shift Engineer's Of fice, the Onsite TSC, and the Nearsite EOF at each nuclear station. o A telephone link that enables communication between the Corporate Command Center, the Onsite TSC, and the Nearsite EOF. o A telephone link that enables communication between the Control Room and the Onsite TSC. o A telephone link that enables communication between the Control Room and the Onsite OSC. Refer to Figure 7.2-2 for a more descriptive representation of the l above systems. 7-5

November, 1981 Revision 3 7.2.3 Environmental Assessment Communications Two separate communication systems have been installed to allow ocordinated environmental monitoring and assessment during an emergency. - The first system consists of the necessary hardware to allow communication between the Corporate e-ad Center, - the Control Boom, the Onsite Tsc, the Nearsite EDF mobile units in Consonwealth vehicles, and har.di-talkies held by environmental monitoring teams in the field. The radio system has scramble capability to prevent monitoring by non-company equipment. The second system consists of a dedicated telephone which allow continuous communication between the Corporate e-ed Center and the Illinois Department of Nuclear Safety REAC in Springfield. Refer to Figure 7.2-3. 7.2.4 inc Comunmications There exists a dedicated telephone, Emergency .Motification System (E35) , between each nuclear station's Control Ecom and the IRC, with an eatension of that line in the Onsite Technical Support Center. There also esists a separate dedicated telephone, Realth Physics Network (EPN) , between the NRC and the Radiation Protec-tion Office at each nuclear station (See Figure 7.2-4) . The actual - configuration of these systems may vary from station to station. ') Installation and use of the Inc phones is under the direction of the Inc. 7.2.5 MANAS

         ,            The Wisconsin Mstional Merning System (MANAS) network is             -

available at the locations shown on Figure 7.2-1. The MANAS is used to provide the initial notification of a reportable incident at the Ilon Station to the State of Wisconsin.

November, 1981 Revision 3 l 7.3 Assessment Facilities 7.3.1 Onsite Systems, Instrumentation, and Eauipment Each nuclear station is equipped with instrumentation for seismic monitoring, radiation monitoring, fire protection, and meteorological monitoring. The actual instrumentation varies somewhat from site to site and thus will not be described in this generic plan. Descriptions of the above equipment will appear in each site specific annex. With regard to Commonwealth Edison's meteorological monitoring program, there has been a quality assurance program since 1976. The program was adopted from 10CFR50, Appendix B. However, cince the meteorological facilities are not composed of structures,

                           ,                  systems, and components that prevent or mitigate the consequences of postulated accidents and are thus not " safety related", not all aspects of 10CFR50, Appendix B apply.                             Those aspects of quality assurance germane to supplying good meteorological information for a nuclear power station were adopted into the meteorological quality assurance program.

7.3.2 Safety Parameter Display System (SPDS) The Safety Parameter Display System (SPDS) (will) provide a display of plant parameters from which the safety status of

       -                                     operation may be assessed in the Control Room, Onsite TSC, the CCC,

(" and Nearsite EOF for each nuclear station. The primary function of the SPDS is to help operating personnel in the Control Room make quick assessments of plant safety status. Duplication of the SPDS displays in the Onsite TSC, the CCC, and Nearsite EOF will promotta the exchange of information between these facilities and the Control Room and assist management in the decision making process. 7.3.3 Offaite Dose Calculation System (ODCS)* l The Offsite Dose Calculation System (ODCS) is a computer l based method for estimating the environmental impact of unplanned I airborne releases of radioactive material from nuclear stations. I

                                                                                                                                             ~

The objectives of the Commonwealth ODCS ares o Meet the meteorological criteria of NUREG-0654. o Provide, where possible, redundant independent pathways of data transmission and redundant data processing computers for use in an emergency situation.

  • This system will not be fully operable as described until the stations are equipped with supplemental plant process computers.

l November, 1981 Revision 3 o Provide quick 'and reasonably accurate estimates of radiation dose to pers::ns living offsite, including preparation of procedures and training of users required to accomplish this assessment. o Provide a method for the meteorological contractor to secure meteorological data for assessment of routine releases and to detect equipment failure quickly.

                                  -Each     nuclear          station             meteorological       tower' will      be interrogated many times daily by the meteorological contractor to secure the information necessary for preparation of meteorological operating reports and to detect system failures.

Every hour, and more frequently during an accident, a corporate (in Chicago) SYFA computer will poll each meteorological facility to prepare the corporate data file and to check the system in order to maintain the ODCS in a readiness posture. Corporate IBM computers will then store the data for an extended period of time and process the data when refined estimates.of dose are needed. At each nuclear station, two computers with different functional requirements will process the meteorological information. The plant process computer will produce initial - transport and diffusion estimates within 15 minutes following j classification of an incident. The plant SYFA computer will produce refined estimates of dose as a terminal entry system to the corporate IBM. During an accident these four computer syst.eas (plant process, plant SYFA, corporate SYFA, corporate IBM) will provide the various users with timely information required to make decisions. Emergency actions will be performed in the following sequences First - time frames initial one-half hour or so post-accident - the contr'o1 room operator will rely on wind speed and direction and effluent release rate information provided by the plant process computer and these data converted into requisite Emergency Action Levels (EALs) by the Class A computer model. second - 1/2 hour to few hours - the plant will rely on the station-designated 00CS user to analyze the off-site consequences using the corporate IBM computer (Class C model) or plant process computer system (C-Model) . 7-12

This corporate group has been formed to support all nuclear stations and will perform its work in Chicago in lieu of having to relocate' to each Nearsite Emergency Operations Facility (EDF) . A data link between the corporate facility and each Nearsite
                           . EDF will be provided.

The class A model will provide warning to the Control Room operator when the following EALs have been exceeded: for Site Emergency: 2-minut'e average noble gas release rate having projected - offsite dose rate of 50 0 mR/hr and 30-minute average noble gas release rate -having projected offsite dose rate of 50 mR/hr, using worst case meteorology; and for' General' Emergency: 2-minute average noble gas release rate having projected offsite dose' rate of 1000 mR/hr using 15-minute average actual meteorology.- 7.3.4 Nuclear Data Link The Nuclear Data Link (NDL) (will be) a data transmission system designed' to send a specified set of variables from the nuclear station to the NRC Operations Center. The purpose of the system is to provide management personnel at NRC with timely, reliable, and accurate plant system, meteorological, and radiological information. The system will also be available to State and utility personnel. 7.4 ' Protective Facilities and Equipment Each nuclear station has chosen locations to serve as both onsite assembly areas and offsite evacuation assembly areas. The specific locations of these areas are shown in each site specific annex. 7.5 First Aid and Medical Facilities I Each nuclear station maintains onsite first aid supplies and equip-ment necessary for the treatment of contaminated or injured persons. As described in Section 6.5.2 of this plan, no resident' physicians, nurses, or industrial hygienists are on the staff of Commonwealth's generating stations, and as such, medical treatment given to injured persons is of a "first ald" nature. When more professional care is needed, injured per-sons are transported to a local clinic or hospital. Hospital facilities are discussed in Section 6.5.4 of this plan. 7-13

a. .

November,1981 Revision 3 ' l 7.6 Damage Control Equipment and Supplies I l l The onsite storeroom of each nuclear station maintains a supply of parts and equipment for normal plant maintenance. These parts, supplies, and equipment are available fer damage control use as necessary. When'an emergency condition exists at one station, additional supplies can be obtained from other stations and from Division resources upon request. 7.7 Facilities and Equipment for Offsite Monitoring Commonwealth Edison has contracted with a company (currently Basleton Environmental Sciences Corperation) to conduct an extensive offsite environmental monitoring program to provide data on measurable levels of radiation and radioactive materials in the envitons. The program includes: fixed continuous air samplars; routine sampling of river watert routine sampling of milk; routine sampling of fishr and a fixed Tr.D monitoring network. The TLD program consists of the following elements at each nuclear station l o A nearsite ring of dosimeters covering the 16 meteorological ! sectors. l o A 16 sector ring of dosimeters placed in a some about 5 miles from the plant.

                                                                                      .J o   TLDs placed at each of the normal fixed air sampler locations (typically about 8-15 air samplers per nuclear station).

Each nuclear station maintains a supply of emergency equipment and supplies which may be used for offsite monitoring. The actual equipment may vary somewhat form site to site and thus the specific listing of equipment appears in Station anergency Plan Isplementing Procedures. Table 7.7-1 specifies mini === requirements for each nuclear station. Sufficient supplies of emergency equipment should be maintained in order to meet the initial requirements of two environmental sampling teams that would be dispatched for declared emergencies that involve releases of , radioactive material to the environment. During subsequent phases of an emergency, equipment would be available from other Commonwealth Edison nuclear stations, vendors, and offsite response organizations. I O 7-14 l

i l November, 1981 s Revision 3 9.3 Additianal Emergency Response / Notification Requirements Tne Generating Stations Emergency Plan is a plan written primarily to comply with the requirements of 10CFR50, Paragraph 50.47 and Appendix l E. As such, GSEP ' addresses emergency conditions as defined in NUREG 0654. On the basis,of other regulatory requirements, additional emergency conditions and required notifications have been defined. These regulations are listed below and define emergency conditions that 3 or may not warrant an emergency declaration under the GSEP in accordance with Section 5.0 of this plan

1) 10CFRS).70, " Inspections, Records, Reports, Notifications".
2) 10CFR73, " Physical Protection of Plants and Materials".
3) 33CFR153, " Control of Pollution by Oil and Hazardous Substances."
4) 10CFR20.403 and State of Illinois Rules and Regulations for Protection against Radiation, Section D.403, " Incident Notifi-cation Requirements."

The following sections summarise the actions required in accordance with the above rules and regulations. i 9.3.1 Notifications of NBC Operations Center # An on-duty Station management person shall notify the NRC operations Center as soon as possible and in all cases within one hour by telephone of the occurrence of any of the following signifi-cant events and shall identify that event as being reported pursuant to 10CFR50.72

1) Any event requiring an emergency declaration as per Sec-tion 5.0 of the GSEP.*

i November, 1981 s Revision 3 l 9.3.2 Nuclear Station Security Plan Each nuclear station shall have a Security Plan that complies with tLa requirements of 10CFR73. The interface between the GSEP and the Nuclear Station Security Plan is basically one of parallel operation. The plans are compatible. The GSEP emergency response measures, once initiated, are executed in parallel with measures taken in accordance with the Station Security Plan. The Nuclear Station Security Plan, Appendix C, Contingency Events, identifies situations which could be initiatiag conditions for GSEP response measures. Contingency events include bomb threats, attack threats, civil disturbances, protected area intrusions, loss of guard / post contact, vital area intrusions, bomb devices discovered, loss of guard force, hostages, extortion, fire / explosions, internal disturbances, security communications failure, and obvious attempts of sabotage. The Station Security Plan pro-vides guidance for decisions and actions to be taken for each secur-ity contingency event. As guidance, the Security Plan allows for differing responses depending upon the assessment of the actual situation within each contingency event classification. - l The assaessment of any security contingency event and the , decision to initiate, or not to initiate the GSEP will be the l responsibility of the Station Director or the Shif t Engineer acting as the Station Director. All identified security contingency evsnts have the potential of being assessed as initiating conditions for an emergency declarattion under the GSEP. 9.3.3 Control of Pollution by Oil and Hazardous Substances 9.3.3.1 Reportable Discharges of Oil or Hazardous Substances A reportable discharge for the purpose of compliance with 33CFR153 is defined' as the spilling, leaking, pumping, pouring, emitting, emptying , or dumping into or upon any public water body of: o Oil in such quantities as to cause a film or sheen upon or discoloration of the water or upon adjoining shore-lines; or o Hazardous substances designated in 40CFRll6 in quantities equal to or exceeding in any 24 hotar period the harmful quantities establish in 40 CFR 118. Also, PCB fluid leaks or discharges of greater than one-half gallon or ten pounds are considered as reportable ' incidents. 9-8

November, 1981 Revision 3 i 9.3.3.2 Reporting Procedure l Upon learning of a reportable discharge as described in Section 9.3.3.1 above, the Station Superintendent or an alternate shall immediately notify the Duty officer, National Response Center, U.S. Coast Guard, toll free telephone number 800-424-8802.

1.0 INTRODUCTION

This Connonwealth Generating Stations Emergency Plan Annex addresses site specific emergency planning for the Byron Nuclear Station. Planning efforts connon to all Consnonwealth nuclear generating stations are encompassed within the generic GFEP. Written station procedures implement the requirements and guidance given in this plan. The Byron Station Emergency Plan Annex is not independent of the generic Commonwealth GSEP. Emergency planning information common to all Commonwealth Nuclear Stations is not necessarily repeated in this annex, but may be in some cases in the interest of continuity and clarification. The content of this annex confonns to Section 9.1 of the generic GSEP. 1.1 Facility Description The Byron Nuclear Generating Station - Units 1 &2 (Byron Station) is located in northern Illinois, approximately 3.7 miles south-southwest of the City of Byron and 2.2 miles _ east of the Rock River, in Ogle County. The site is situated approximately in the center of the county in a predominantly agricultural area. The station site is roughly rectangular in shape, with the plant structures occupying the southeast portion of the site. The

following coordinates of the centers of the containments in Zone 16 of the Universal Transverse Mercator Coordinate System are given below to the nearest 100 meters. Latitude and longitude are given to the nearest second.

 , .1 June, 1982 Revision 0 At its closest approach, the Rock River is approximately 1.5 miles west of the western site boundary and 2.2 miles west-southwest of the . actual plant location.

Byron Station occupies approximatEly 1288 acres of land. This area includes the main site area and the transmission and pipeline corridor to the Rock River. The main site area occupies approximately 904 acres, and the corridor occupies the remaining 384 acres. Figure BYA 1-1 shows the general location of" Byron Station. The plant consists of two identical pressurized water reactor (PWR) nuclear steam supply systems (NSSS) and turbine-generators furnished by Westinghouse Electric Corporation. Each nuclear steam supply system is designed for a power output of 3425 MWT. The equivalent warranted gross and approximate net electrical outputs of each unit are 1175 MWe and 1120 MWe, respectively. Cooling for the plant is provided by two natural' draft cooling towers for nonessential service cooling water, and by mechanical draft cooling l towers for essential service cooling water. Byron Station has two release points for gaseous radioactive effluents, the two Auxiliary Building ventilation stacks. The top of each stack rises 200 feet above the grade elevation. Byron Station has one release point for liquid radioactive effluents, the Rock River. Liquid radioactive wastes are stored and sampled prior - to release to the Rock River. A radiation monitor in the discharge line will automatically terminate releases if radioactivity levels exceed predetermined values. l i 1 ! BYA 1-2

 .         .)

June, 1982 Revision 0 1.2 Plant Exclusion Area The Byron Station Exclusion Area as defined in 10 CFR 100 is located entirely within the site boundary, as shown in Figure BYA 1-2. Since Comonwealth Edison owns all properties within the s.ite boundary, it also owns the Exclusion Area and has the authority to determine and control all activities occurring within the Exclusion Area, including removal and exclusion of personnel or property from the site. Commonwealth Edison owns all mineral rights and easements for the Exclusion Area, a= well as for the remainder of the site property. For accident releases, the minimum Exclusion Area Boundary distance is 445 meters, measured from the outer containment wall. 1.3 Low Population Zone (LPZ) The Low Population Zone (LPZ) as defined in 10 CFR 100 is "the area immediately surrounding the Exclusion Area which contains residents, the total number and density of which are such that there is a reasonable probability that appropriate protection measures could be taken in their behalf in the event of a serious accident." The 10 CFR 100.11 also lists numerical criteria to be met by the LPZ, namely that the LPZ is "of'such size that an individual located at any point on its outer boundary who is exposed to the radioactive f cloud resulting from the postulated fission product release (during 1 the entire period of passage) would not receive a total radiation dose to the whole body in excess of 25 rem or a total radiation dose in excess of 300 rem to the thyroid from iodine exposure." l BYA 1-3

Jun2, 1982 Revision 0

     .              The Low Population Zone that was chosen for the Byron Station consists of that area within a 3-mile radius (measured from the midpoint between the two reactors) of the site. The Low Population Zone for the Byron Station is based on dose considerations as delineated in 10 CFR 100 and the population distribution around the station. Figure BYA 1-3 depicts the transportation route and public facilities within the LPZ.

1.4 Population Centers A pcpulation center distance as defined in 10 CFR 100 means the distance from the reactor to the nearest boundary of a densely populated center containing more than 25,000 residents. Additionally, there must be "a population center distance of at least one and one-third times the distance from the reactor to the outer boundary of the low population zone." The closest such center is Rockford, Illinois. Its nearest boundary is located approximately 15 miles northeast of the reactors, although the city is actually located 17 miles northeast of the plant. Rockford had a 1970 population of 147,370, and a 1980 population of 139,600. Refer to Table BYA 1-1 which lists the population distribution within a fifty mile radius of Byron Station. 1.5 Emergency Planning Zone The plume exposure Emergency Planning Zone (EPZ) for Byron l Station shall be an area surrounding the Station with a radius of about ten miles. See Figure BYA 1-1. The ingestion exposure Emergency Planning Zone (EPZ) for Byron Station shall be an area surrounding the Station with a radius of about 50 miles. See Figure BYA 1-4. BYA 1-4

SUMMARY

OF EMERGENCY PLAN The Generating Stations Emergency Plan (GSEP) addresses Commonwealth's planning efforts for emergency situations at each of its nuclear generating stations. Both the generic GSEP and this site specific annex were prepared utilizing guidance provided by Regulatory Guide 1.101, Revision 2, and NUREG 0654, Revision 1. The Plan addresses:

1) Organizational control of emergencies;
2) Classification of emergency conditions;
3) Emergency response measures; 4-) Emergency facilities and equipment; and
5) Maintaining emergency preparedness.

This GSEP annex provides specific planning information that was deemed inappropriate for inclusion into a generic plan but yet considered necessary for a full understanding and representation of the Station's emergency response capabilities.  ; This annex does not specifically address efforts for protecting the public from . the effects of an accident. The State of Illinois has developed an " Illinois Plan for Radiological Accidents" and will coordinate implementation of all necessary protective actions for the public in Illinois. The State of Wisconsin will coordinate with the State of Illinois to implement all necessary protective actions for the public in Wisconsin. State emergency responses increase commensurate with the reported emergency. BYA 3-1

[ June, 1982 Revision 0 4.0 ORGANIZATIONAL CONTROL OF EMERGENCIES The GSEP organization consists of two major groups. Firs t, there is the Station Group, consisting of the directors and their associated staffs. Secondly, there is an offsite GSEP organization. For a full response situation, this group consists of twenty-six directors and staff 1 personnel. A detailed description of the total GSEP organization appet.rs in Section 4.0 of the generic GSEP. The purpose of this section is to provide specific information with regard to the Byron Station organization and governmental support agencies. 4.1 Nonnal Plant Organization The normal plant organization is basically the same for all Commonwealth nuclear stations. (Refer to Section 4.1 of the generic plan.) 4.1.1 Station Superintendent Byron Station is managed by a Station Superintendent who is responsible for direct management of the station including industrial relations, planning, coordination and direction of the operation, r.aintenance, refueling, and technical activities. During an emergency condition, the Station Superintendent is normally the GSEP Station Director. His specific responsibilities and duties are l o"tlined in Table 4.2-1 of the generic GSEP. Those responsibilities of the Station Director that may not be l delegated are as follows: BYA 4-1

June', 1982 Revision 0

1) Declaration that an Unusual Event, Alert; Site Emergency, or General Emergency Condition exists.

General categorization of emergencies may be done by other plant personnel in accordance with approved Station procedures. But the final decision to declare the emergency condition rests with the Station Director; and

2) Decision to notify and recommend protective actions to offsite authorities in the case where a Site Emergency or General Emergency condition exists and i

the Recovery Manager or Corporate Command Center Director have not been contacted or are not prepared to make an informed decision. In all other cases, the decision to notify and reconnend protective actions to offsite authorities shall be made by the Recovery Manager or Corporate Connand Center Director. This responsibility may not be delegated. Actual notification and transmittal of these recommendations may be delegated. 4.1.2 Shift Engineer The Shift Engineer on duty is responsible for operating the plant in compliance with the station operating license and procedures, During his shift, the Shift Engineer is in charge of operating the entire plant in a safe and reliable condition. A Shift Engineer is en duty 24 hours a day and is normally the initial GSEP Station Group Director and as such has the authority for declaring an emtrgency and reconinending protective actions to local authorities. l 4.1.3 Cualifications Of Plant Personnel The guidelines of ANSI N18.1-1971 are generally followed by Byron Station management for personnel selection and training. For some positions, alternate qualifications are utilized based upon operating experience. l BYA 4-2

June, 1982 Revision 0 4.1.4 Contractor Perfonnance Ultimate responsibility for contractor performance from support contractors rests with the Station Superintendent. 4.1.5 Minimum Shift Manning The minimum staffing required at Byron Station is the same as is required at other Commonwealth two-unit nuclear stations. Refer to Figure 4.2-2 of the generic GSEP. 4.1.6 Health Physics Organization The Station Rad / Chem Supervisor is responsible for the health physics program and for handling and monitoring of radioactive materials. Nonnally reporting to the Rad / Chem Supervisor are health physicists, chemists, foremen, and technicians. During an emergency situation, the Rad / Chem l Supervisor nonnally acts as the GSEP Rad / Chem Director. 4.1.7 Augmentation of Plant Staffing During An Emergency Byron Station is committed to augment its onsite l organization under emergency conditions. The Station uses, as guidance, Figure 4.2-3 of the generic GSEP in planning for its augmentation of plant staffing during an i emergency. To facilitate the augmentation of plant staffing, Byron Station has established a 24 hour. duty-call individual who would be notified first after a station emergency is declared. This individual would initiate a prioritized notification (call-list) procedure. BYA 4-3

June, 1982 Revision 0 4.2 Non-Comonwealth Support Groups Agreements exist on file at Byron Station with several support agencies. These agencies and their support roles are ellows:

1) The Ogle County Sheriff's Office ! v' rvices of law enforcement.
2) Byron Fire and Rescue pro' e protection and ambulance services.
3) Rockford Memorial Hosp rord will serve as the supporting medical fac. .aNPS .

I 4) The Emergency Services and Disaster Agency (ESDA) on the l State, County, and municipal levels will implement protective actions for the public. Note: The agreement with the Illinois ESDA pledges the support of all State of Illinois agencies that have a role in the Illinois Plan for Radiological Accidents.

5) The Department of Energy, Chicago Operations Office, will respond to requests for radiological assistance. This assistance will normally be limited to advice and emergency action essential for the control of the immediate hazards to health and safety.
6) Electric Utilities Involved in Transportation of Nuclear Materials (INPO) provide voluntary assistance in l mitigating the consequences of nuclear transportation i accidents.

Additionally, Commonwealth Edison Company has contractural . agreements with several companies whose services would be available l in the event of en emergency. These agencies and their available services are as follows:

1) Hazelton Environmental Sciences Corporation provides environmental radiological monitoring services and radiochemical analysis.

l 2) Radiation Management Corporation provides services of I medical and health physics support.

3) Murray & Trettel, Inc. provides meteorological monitoring services.
4) Landauer, Inc. provides personnel dosimetry se vices.

l BYA 4-4

r June, 1982 Revision 0 4.3 Coordination with Governmental Agencies As stated in the generic plan, the State of Illincis has the statutory responsibility and authority for protecting the health and safety of the public in Illinois. Within the State of Illinois authority is delegated as follows:

1) The Governor has overall offsite coninand authority for the l protectio;. of the public.
2) The Illinois Emergency Services and Disaster Agency (ESDA) exercises consnand and coordination and has programmatic responsibility for the implementation of protective actions as recommended for the public by the Illinois Department of Nuclear Safety (IDNS) and the Governor.
3) The Department of Nuclear Safety has both the command authority for radiological aspects of a nuclear acciaent and the responsibility for perfoming various radiological functions. During an accident situation, the IDNS will make protective action reconsnendations to the Governor and the Illinois ESDA.

The State of Illinois will develop an annex to its State plan which specifically addresses protective action for the Illinois portion of the Byron Station Emergency Planning Zones. l The State of Wisconsin is a contiguous state affected by the Byron Station Ingestion Pathway Emergency Planning Zone. Within the State of Wisconsin, the Wisconsin Division of Emergency Government will coordinate and provide liaison with the Illinois ESDA and supporting Federal agencies to ensure effective responses and aid in i emergencies involving Byron Station which affect Wisconsin.

  ,                                      BYA 4-5 l                                ___

June, 1982 Revision 0 5.0 CLASSIFICATION OF EMERGENCY CONDITIONS The generic section of the GSEP provides for classification of l emergencies into five (5) categories. The first category, Transportation Accident, concerns an emergency involving the transportation of radioactive or other hazardous material from a nuclear generating

station. The other fust (4) categories
Unusual Event; Alert; Site 1

(Area) Emergency; and General Emergency address emergencies of increasing severity. Table BYA 5-1 includes the specific initiating conditions for each emergency class at Byron Station. Where possible, these initiating conditions are related to plant instrumentation readings. In the event of equipment installation or other requirements, it may be necessary to quickly change the GSEP Emergency Action Levels at Byron Station. This may be done by first changing the Station EPIP of EALs and then, as soon as practical, by changing Table BYA 5-1 of this annex. In an emergency situation, if more than one distinctive EAL. of different classification levels is reached, e.g., an EAL for Alert and an EAL for Site Emergency, the highest classification level reached shall be declared. l Similarly, if more than one distinctive EAL of the same

classification level is reached, e.g., two EALs for Site Emergency, consideration shall be given for declaration of a higher classification.

i June, 1982 Revision 0 6.0 EMERGENCY MEASURES Connonwealth Edison emergency response actions are basically the same for all nuclear stations and are thus cov.ered by Section 6.1 of the generic plan. 6.1 Activation of the Emergency Organization If the conditions at Byron Station indicate that one of the Emergency Action Levels in Table BYA 5-1 is exceeded, the Station Director declares and classifies the emergency. A Nuclear Accident Reporting System (NARS) Fonn is completed and the information contained on this form is conveyed to the System Power Dispatcher. In addition, the NRC Operations Center is notified of the emergency , in accordance with 10 CFR 50.72. For the General Emergency, the Station Director is responsible for notifying the following Illincis and Wisconsin agencies of the emergency condition, as well as recommending initial protective actions for the offsite public: l e Illinois ESDA in Springfield l l o Wisconsin Division of Emergency Government in Madison. Wisconsin l e Ogle County Sheriff's Office When State and local agencies are notified of the emergency condition, they will take action in accordance with State and local j emergency plans. 1 BYA 6-1 l l

June, 1982 Revision 0 , Figure 4.2-3 of the generic GSEP will be used by

  • Byron Station in augmenting the Byron onsite emergency organization for declared GSEP emergencies. In addition, Byron Station has established an Onsite Technical Suppo.rt Center and an Onsite Operational Support Center. These centers are activated (manned) for an Alert, Site Emergency, and General Emergency. Augmentation of plant staffing is achieved by implementing a prioritized notification procedure as described in Section 4.1.7.

6.2 Assessment Actions Throughout each emergency situation, continuing assessment will occur. Assessment actions at Byron Station may include an evaluation of plant conditions; inplant, onsite, and initial offsite radiological measurements; and initial estimates of offsite doses. To aid emergency personnel in an assessment of core damage during an emergency condition, a figure has been prepared which represents a plot of activity (C1) versus containment ' radiation readings. Figure BYA 6-1 is simplistic in nature and is intended only to provide a preliminary estimate of primary containment activity, based on containment radiation readings. 6.3 Protective Actions for the Offsite Puolic Protective actions for the offsite public will be recommended and coordinated by the Illinois ESDA and Wisconsin Division of l Emergency Government (DEG) in cooperation with local officials. The initial recommendation of protective actions will be issued to ESDA and DEG by Comonwealth Edison based on conditions at Byron Station.

l June, 1982 Revision 0 is available for the purpose of alerting the population of' recomended protective actions. The notification system consists of three parts:

1) A pennanently installed outdoor notification system within the O to 5 mile radius around the station. The O to 5 mile radius around the station is primarily an agricultural area with a population density well below 2000 persons per square mile.

The installed notification system will essentially cover all inhabited areas with a minimum noise level of 60 db using an attenuation factor of 10 db loss per distance doubled. For the possibility of a dwelling not being exposed to a 60 db minimum

                   . noise level, a local coverage siren or an inhouse warning receiver will be utilized.
2) A permanently installed outdoor notification system covering the heavily populated areas within the 5 to 10 miles radius.

The area outside the five mile radius and inside the ten mile radius contains a number of communities that will be covered by installed notification systems.. These systems will utilize existing sirens plus additional sirens to ensure complete coverage with either a 60 db minimum or 10 db above daytime background.

3) A mobile notification ' system for the remainder of the area within the 5 to 10 mile radius. The total 1980 population of the area outside the tive mile radius and inside the ten mile radius is approximately 12,000. Of this total, that population i residing in communities within the 5 to 10 mile radius will be covered by the installed notification system mentioned in part
2 above. The remaining population live in rural residences or farm steads and will be alerted by a mobile system including sirens and public address. The plan for a mobile notification system includes the use of law enforcement vehicles with siren and portable announcing systems. Contained in the Emergency Plans of each of the counties associated with Byron Station, will be the general guidance for early notification of the population within the county. The routing of law enforcement vehicles through the 5 to 10 mile EPZ will be accomplished by the county sheriff dispatcher aided by the state police dispatcher if needed. The purpose of the prompt notification system is to advise citizens to either take shelter or evacuate

! and to instruct them to tune to designated emergency information radio stations. Once the public has tuned to designated radio stations in an emergency, detailed instructional messages will be given to the public. State and local procedures provide for these messages, j BYA 6-3

     ~

r June, 1982 Revision 0 Protective actions for the public may include: e Sheltering by remaining inside buildings or homes. e Evacuation from a potentially affected area and relocation to a preestablished registration / evacuation center. e Food, water and milk control by sampling, testing and restricting the consumption of these potentially affected items. ! e Access control by roadblocks and barriers to prevent entrance to potentially affected areas. Sector evacuation times may be a factor in the recommended protective ac,tions. Refer to Figure BYA 6-2 for a sumary of evacuation time estimates for the ten-mile area surrounding Byron Nuclear Power Station. 6.4 Protective Actions for Onsite Personnel Byron Station has a siren system to warn onsite personnel of emergency conditions. Upon hearing a continuous two (2) minute siren all personnel within the protected area have been instructed to report to designated locations / assembly areas. Station GSEP directors report to the Onsite Technical Support Center. Certain Rad / Chem, maintenance, and operations personnel report to the Onsite Operational Support Center. Personnel not having emergency assignments report to either one of two designated assembly areas. Permanent station personnel should nor 1 ally report to the Service Building Machine Shop area. Contract 2'should normally assemble in the Unit #1 Turbine Building Track-way. Refer to Figure BYA 6-3. Accountability of site personnel will be the responsibility of the Byron Station Security Director using the computerized security control system. l BYA 6-4

l . Juna, 1982 Revision 0 If a site evacuation is considered necessary by the Station Director, personnel will be relocated and monitored at one or more of the following locations:

1) Dixon District Headquarters in Dixon, IL.
2) Rock River Division Headquarters in Rockford, IL.
3) Quad Cities Nuclear Generating Station, near Cordova, IL.

Traffic control for onsite areas during an evacuation will be the responsibility of the Byron station security force. As necessary, equipment and personnel will be furnished by Byron Station to the relocation site (s) for monitoring, decontamination, and bioassay. Refer to Figure BYA 6-4 for evacuation routes to the relocation sites. Other emergency measures are common to all nuclear station and are thus discussed in the generic plan. BYA 6-5

Auxiliary ?uilding. 7.1.4 Corporate Command Center The Corporate Consnand Center (CCC), located in the Edison Building, downtown Chicago, is the location from which the CCC Director will normally direct a staff in evaluating, coordinating, and directing company activities involved in coping with'an emergency. 7.1.5 Nearsite Emergency Operations Facility (EOF) Byron Station has designated a Nearsite Emergency Operations Facility. The Nearsite EOF will be located at the Dixon District Headquarters Building in Dixon, which is approximately 19 miles SSW of the Station. The Nearsite EOF is the location where the GSEP Recovery Group would be activated, primarily for a Site or General Emergency. Refer to Figure BYA 7-5 for an a s-buil t" drawing of the Nearsite EOF. The designated Nearsite E0F is greater than 10 miles from the Onsite TSC and therefore is exempt from habitability criteria. . 7.2 Communications Systems l Dedicated consnunications systems at Byron Station allow effective coordination of any emergency response. These systems include:

1) A Nuclear Accident Reporting System (NARS) which links the Control Room, the Corporate Cocynand Center, the Onsite TSC, the System Power Supply Office, the Nearsite E0F, the Illinois ESDA (in Springfield), the IDNS (in Springfield),

and selected local government agencies. i BYA 7-2 l

5) A telephone link that enables communication between the Control Room and the Onsite OSC.
6) A telephone link that enables comunication between the

{ Onsite TSC and the Onsite OSC.

7) A radio voice channel between the CCC, the Shift Engineer's Office, the Onsite TSC, the Nearsite EOF, mobile vehicles, and handi-talkies in the field.
8) An Emergency Notification System and a Health Physics Network that allow comunications between the Station and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

The Byron Station dedicated communications systems comply with the requirements of Section 7.2 in the generic GSEP. Following a GSEP declaration, Byron Station makes initial notifications in accordance with Section 6.1 of the generic GSEP and this annex. In addition, the Control Room shall establish a comunications link with the Onsite TSC and the Onsite OSC when activated. As soon as the Onsite TSC is activated and manned, the Control Room shall be relieved of the responsibility for maintaining an open comunications link with the NRC Operations Center. The Control Room will then maintain comunications with only the Onsite i ! TSC and the Onsite OSC. The Onsite TSC shall maintain l comunications with the NRC Operations Center, the Control Room, the CCC, and/or the Nearsite EOF. Communications links that are not required to be maintained open shall be teminated as quickly as prudence dictates. Temination is accomplished to minimize the BYA 7-3 .

June, 1982 Revision 0 number of personnel needed as communicators, to minimize confusion in control centers and .to reduce the probability for promulgation of erroneous information. Communications initiated by interested outside parties, not specifically addressed in the GSEP, shall be referred to the corporate office. Such communications shall never be allowed to interfere with response to an emergency condition nor l with the implementation of the GSEP. In addition to the dedicated GSEP communications described in this section, Byron Station has other reliable intraplant and plant-to-offsite communications. These communications include: e A public address system e A commercial phone system o Security / Operations radio consoles and handi-talkies e System Power Dispatcher microwave communications e Sound-powered phones e Vehicle radios e flicrowave communications The Station's communications systems will be further described in an Emergency Plan Implementing Procedure. 7.3 Assessment Facilities 7.3.1 Onsite S'..raic Monitoring Instrumentation A cencral recording time-history accelerograph unit I with strip chart recorder, indicator lights, and playback s>. tem is provided. ( The lights indicate whether the system is triggered and whether the operating basis or safe shutdown maximum accelerations are exceeded in any one of the three BYA 7-4 l

June, 1982 Revision 0 orthogonal directions in the basement of the containment structures. An acceleration of .02g in any direction activates the seismic switch which turns on the seismic

                           - monitors and lights up the seismic alarm lights at the central station panel.

l 7.3.2 Onsite Meteorological Monitoring Instrumentation A 250-foot meteorological tower is located approximately 3400 feet southwest of the Byron Station Containment Buildings and has been in operation since 1973.

                                  ~The Byron Station meteorological monitoring system is l

equipped to monitor the following parameters:

1) Temperature (at 30 feet)
2) Differential Temperature (between 30 and 250 ft)
3) Dew point (at 30 and 250 feet) -
4) Wind speed and direction (at 30 and 250 feet)
5) Precipitation (at base of tower)

In addition to the above, sigma-sub-theta, a derived meteorological parameter, is computed and is available to the CCC Environmental Director. Information gathered from the tower is recorded on chart recorders located in a building at the tower base. These metecrclogical parameters will be provided as input to the station's process computer and will be available as up-to-the-minute data in the control room. BYA 7-5

June, 1982 Revision 0 The meteorological program at Byron Station provides information sufficient to assess local weather conditions and to determine the degree of atmospheric dispersion of airborne radioactive effluents from the station. The Commonwealth Edison meteorological contractor maintains a comprehensive field program. Routine visits are made to each tower once a week to retrieve analog data and inspect equipment. These visits are directed towards ground based equipment, although a visual inspection of the tower sensing equipment is also made. Those instru-ments equipped with internal calibration capabilities are checked also. A log of the week's activities is filled out and kept on file both with the contractor and at the general office. Besides the routine meteorological maintenance pro-gram, several independent methods are used to verify quality data transmissions and recovery from each meteoro-logical tower. The corporate computer polls each meteoro-

  . logical tower throughout the day.         Each day's data are screened by a validation program which flags all missing and/or suspect values. The meteorological contractor is j       notified of persistent outages and the proper restoration procedure is followed.

As an independent method of data retrieval, the meteorological contractor also interrogates each meteoro-l logical tower during the day. Data are passed through a validation procedure, and suspect data closely examined. l Field teams are then assigned for restoration of the system. SYA 7-6

   ^

June, 1982 Revision 0 Cooperation between the corporate office and the meteorological contractor assures that a timely restoration of any outage can be made. Emergency field visits to the meteorological sites are made as quickly as

possible after detection of a failure.

Should an event of sufficient magnitude occur to destroy the tower structure, a contract is maintained to have a temporary tower erected within 72 bnurs, weather i conditions permitting. Further, the meteorological I contractor maintains two levels of sensors (wind speed, wind direction and temperature) in a state of readiness for use on the temporary tower. 7.3.3 Onsite Radiation Monitoring Equipment The onsite radiation monitoring capability includes an installed process, effluent, and area radiation monitoring system; portable survey instrumentation; i counting equipment for radiochemical analysis; and a l personnel dosimetry program to record integrated exposure. Some onsite equipment is particularly valuable for accident situations and is described in the following subsections. 7.3.3.1 Radiation Monitoring System Chapters 11 and 12 of the Byron FSAR describe the radiation monitoring system (RMS) in detail. The installed RMS is designed to continuously monitor the containment atmosphere, plant effluents, and various in-plant locations. BYA 7-7

June, 1982 Revision 0 The system includes Control Room readouts and recorders for each parameter that is monitored and an audible Control Room alam when predetemined setpoints are exceeded. The system can be subdiviuso into process / effluent instrumentation and an area monitoring system. e The process / effluent instrumentation consists of pumps, filter samplers, detectors, and associated electronics to determine noble gas, iodine, and particulate concentrations in plant cubicles or liquid and gaseous effluents. Several monitored effluent pathways have control functions which will terminate the release at a predetemined setpoint. These setpoints are premised on compliance with federal regulations. e The area monitoring system provides information of existing radiation levels in various areas of the plant to ensure safe occupancy. It is equipped with Control Room and local readout and audible alarms to warn personnel of an increased radiation level. Some onsite equipment is particularly valuable for accident situations and is described in the following sections. I BYA 7-8 l

June, 1982 RGvision 0 7.3.3.2 Post Accident Sampling Capability The capability to obtain and perform

                     ~

radioisotopic and chemical analyses of the reactor coolant and containment atmosphere samples is provided by the high radiation sampling system (HRSS), the design of which is cutlined in the following paragraphs. The system is installed in the auxiliary building and consists of ' a liquid sampling subsystem and an air sampling subsystem. The

                              .               major components of the system are:
a. HRSS liquid sample panel,
b. Liquid sample cooler rack,
c. Chemical analysis panel,
d. Chemical analysis monitor panel,
e. HRSS auxiliaries control panel (liquid subsystem only),
f. Waste drain tank and pumps,
g. Containment air sample panel (CASP),
h. CASP control panel, and i 1. Valves and piping for the system.

The liquid sampling subsystem is installed at elevation 401 feet in the auxiliary building except for the waste drain tank and pumps which are installed at elevation 383 feet. The air sampling subsystem is installed in the auxiliary building in proximity to the containment. BYA 7-9

June, 1982 Revision 0 The HRSS liquid sampling panel is capable of sampling:

a. Pressurizer steam space,
b. Pressurizer liquid space,
c. Each accumulator (emergency core coolingsystem),
d. Reactor coolant hot leg loops 1 and 3,
e. Reactor coolant cold leg loops 1 through 4 -
f. RHR heat exchangers A and B outlets,
g. Reactor coolant letdown heat exchanger outlet,
h. CYCS demineralizer outlet,
i. BTR demineralizer outlet, J. Reactor coolant filter outlet,

m. Recycle holdup tank A (B on Unit 2 panel),
n. HRSS waste drain tank,
o. Containment floor drain sump',
p. Chemical drain tank (Unit 1 panel only),
q. Steam generator blowdown sample line, and,
r. Regeneration waste drain tank (Unit 1 panel only).

BYA 7-10

June, 1982 Revision 0 In addition to taking'the above samples for onsite and/or offsite analysis, the HRSS liquid sampling panel is capable of routing the reactor coolant samples to the chemical analysis panel. The chemical analysis panel is capable of performing the on-line analysis of pH, dissolved oxygen, specific conductivity, chloride, and hydrogen. For boron and isotopic analysis, samples diluted by a factor of 1000 to one will be transferred to the onsite laboratory. Excessive exposure to the system operator is limited by:

a. Lead shielding in the liquid sampling panel and the chemical analysis panel;
b. Concrete shielding above, below, and around .the sides of the panels .to prevent radiation from scattering around the lead shielding;
c. The optimized design and reduced amount

! of piping in the panels containing reactor coolant;

d. A special cart equipped with a shielding cask to transport the radioactive sample to its destination; and,
e. A ventilation system drawing air out of the sampling panels and discharging into a remote HVAC train.

The containment air sampling panel is capable of sampling the primary containment atmosphere. The sample is drawn from the containment through a dedicated penetration. l BYA 7-11

June, 1982 Revision 0 Once the interfacing valves are arranged and the sampling programmer is initiated, the containment air sampling panel utilizes automatically sequenced sampling to trap the designated sample in a shielded cart. The air sample will then be analyzed onsite. Excessive exposure to the operator is limited by:

a. Steel shielding in the containment air sampling panel;
b. Concrete shielding above, below, and around the sides of the panel to prevent radiation from scattering around the steel shielding;
c. Automatic sampling;
d. Special carts each equipped with a shielding cask to transport the radioactive sample to its destination; and,
e. A ventilation system drawing air out of the sampling panels and discharging l into a remote HVAC train.

Actual frequency of sampling shall be determined by station management; however, as a minimum the first sample can be taken within 1 hour from the time a decision is made to take a sample, continuing with at least one sample per day for the next 7 days and at least one sample per week thereafter. The time interval between taking a sample and receipt by plant management of the results of the analysis is estimated to l be less than 2 hours. l BYA 7-12

June, 1982 Revision 0 7.3.3.3 Radiological Noble Gas Effluent Monitoring Two General Atomic Company wide-range monitors will be installed on the auxiliary building vent stacks (final release points), one monitor per stack. The monitor has a range for radioactive gas concentration o f 1 x 10-7 uCi/cc 5 to 1 x 10 uti/cc. The monitor includes the following: two isokinetic nozzles, one for normal conditions operating at 2 ft8/ min and one for high range conditions operating at 0.06 ft3/ min; sampling ' rack; sample conditioner, operating only at high range conditions to filter out large concentrations of radioiodine and particulates; and the wide-range gas detectors assembly, consisting of three radioactive gas detectors, a low-range detector (Model Number RD-52), a mid-range detector (Model Number RD-72-01), and a high-range detector (Model Number RD-72-02). Each monitor system has a microprocessor which utilizes digital processing techniques to analy:e data and control monitor functions. Control room readouts include a chart recorder and an RM-23 remote display module for all monitored parameters. BYA 7-13

June, 1982 Revision 0 Four General Atomic Company RD-12 detectors will be provided for each of the four main steamlines upstream of the safety and relief valves. The range of the monitor is 10 mr/hr to 105mr/hr. -- The monitors will be i mounted external to the main steamline piping and corrections made for the loss of low energy gannas. Readouts in the control room will include strip chart recorders. 7.3.3.4 Radioiodine and Particulate Effluent Monitoring The General Atomic Company wide range gas monitor includes a sampling rack for collection of the auxiliary building vent stack particulate and radioiodine samples. Filter holders and j valves are provided to allow grab sample collection for isotopic analyses in the station's counting rooms. The sampling rack is shielded to minimize personnel exposure. The sampling media will be analyzed by a gamma ray spectrometer which utilizes a Ge(L1) detector. The iodine cartridges are reverse blown for at least ten minutes to reduce the level of entrapped noble gases. Ir addition, s'ilver zeolite cartridges are availeble to further reduce the interference of noble gases. BYA 7-14

June, 1982 R2 vision 0 7.3.3.5 High-Range Containment Radiation Monitors Two high range containment radiation monitors are installed for each operating reactor. The monitors will detect and measure the radiation level within the reactor containment during and following an accident. The range of the monitors is 1 rad /hr tc 8 10 rads /hr (beta-gama) or alternatively, 1 R/hr to 10 7R/hr for gamma only. 7.3.3.6 In-Plant Iodine Instrumentation Effective monitoring of increasing iodine levels in buildings under accident conditions will include the use of portable instruments using silver zeolite as a sample media. Byron Station has a Transportable Data Acquisition and Analysis System for analyzing samples that cannot be counted and analyzed in the normal Station counting room because of background problems. Auxiliary counting room locations have been identified within the Turbine Building. It is expected that a sample can be obt W ed, purged, and analyzed for iodine i l content within a two-hour time frame. BYA 7-15

Juna, 1982 R: vision 0 7.3.3.7 Station Survey and Counting Equipment The Station maintains portable survey l instrumentation to assess contamination levels, exposure rates, and gaseous, iodine, and particulate airborne radioactivity concen-trations. This equipment includes GMs, ion chambers, and air samplers. The equipment is operated and calibrated by Station personnel.- The Station counting room contains GeLi gamma spectrometer systems, gas-flow proportional ccunters for alpha and beta /gama analysis, and liquid scintillators for tritium analysis. The Station uses various combinations of . film badges, TLDs, direct reading nocket ion chambers, and electronic dosimeters to monitor personnel exposures. In addition, a whole body counting system for bioassay determinations is located onsite. 7.3.4 Monitoring for Vital Plant Parameters Adequate monitoring capability exists to properly assess the plant status for all modes of operation and is . described in the Byron /Braidwood FSAR. Instrumentation is l installer. to ensure monitoring of the following vital parameters: BYA 7-16

This procedure relies upon core exit thermocouples to indicate an inadequate core cooling condition. 7.3.5 Site Hydrulogical Characteristics The hydrological characteristics of the Byron Station vic'.nity are described in Section 2.4 of the Byron FSAR. The river screen house is the only structure that could be affected by flooding on the Rock River and is designed for a combined event flood, where a combined event flood is defined as a flood on the Rock River having a 1 x 10-6 annual probability of being exceeded at a 90% confidence level. All other Byron Station structures are 161 feet or more above the Prot able Maximum Flood level of the Rock River, i l BYA 7-17

June, 1982 R: vision 0 The minimum design operating level of the essential service water makeup pumps is 3.8 feet lower than the water level for the 1-day 100 year low flow drought condition. In the unlikely event that emergency make-up water requirements cannot be satisfied by surface water withdrawals from the Rock River, groundwater welis will serve for makeup to the essential service water cooling towers. Becuse of the site hydrological characteristics given above, plant operation should not be affected by Rock River water level conditions and therefore, I hydrological monitors have not been installed. The Rock i River is not used for any public water supply. There are l no recorded plans for any future public water supply usage from the Rock River. The nearest surface water users downstream from Byron Station are on the Mississippi River over 115 miles away. This allows for sufficient mixing that makes permanently installed hydrological monitors unnecessary. Provisions have been made for grab samples to establish release rates. In performing dose calculations from liquid releases, Byron Station uses a historical average river flow value, Fw, as a parameter in l the liquid release model. BYA 7-18 -

l June, 1982 Rsvision 0 7.3.6 Onsite Fire Detection Instrumentation The fire detection systen is designed in accordance with applicable National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) Standards. The system is equipped with elec-trically supervised ionization smoke and heat detectors to quickly detect any fires and the instrumentation to provide local indication and Control Room annunciation. In addition to the smoke and heat detection systems, each fire protection carbon dioxide, halon, or water system is instrumented to inform the Control Room of its actuation or of system trouble. In the event that a portion of the fire detection instrumentation is inoperable, an increased frequency of fire watches in affected areas is required. 7.3.7 Facilities and Eouipment for Offsite Environmental Monitoring As described in the generic GSEP, Commonwealth has contracted with a company to conduct an offsite environ-mental monitoring program at each nuclear station. Figure 4 BYA 7-6 shows the locations of the fixed continuous air samplers. Figure BYA 7-7 shows the inner and outer rings i of TLD's in a 5-mile radius. Byron Station maintains a supply of emergency equip-ment and supplies for offsite monitoring and sampling. The supply includes the minimum requirements delineated by Figure 7.7-1 of the generic GSEP. BYA 7-19 i -- . - - - _ _ .

June, 1982 Revision 0 7.4 Protective Facilities and Equipment The principal onsite assembly areas for Byron Station are the Machine Shop on the 401-foot elevation of the Service Building and the Unit #1 Turbine Building track-way. These areas are suitable because:

1) They are large open areas suitable for assembling a large number of people in a short time;
2) They are relatively close to the Security Gatehouse; and
3) They have a low probability of being affected by a serious accident involving the NSSS.

The offsite evacuation / relocation areas for Byron Station are discussed in Section 6.0 of this annex. All three locations are suitable, depending on the emergency condition. All three locations are owned by Commonwealth; thus, personnel, supplies, and communica-tions are readily available. 7.5 First Aid and Medical Facilities . Byron Station has an in-plant first aid / decontamination room on the 426-foot elevation of the auxiliary building near the station laboratory complex. This room is provided with a sink, a shower, a portable leaded glass shield, and a supply cabinet. First aid kits, stretchers, sinks, eyewashes, and emergency showers have been placed in strategic locations throughout the station. BYA 7-20

1 Juna, 1982 Revision 0 As mentioned in the generic plan, medical treatment given to injured persons at the station is of a "first aid" nature. When more professional care is needed, injured persons are transported to a local hospital or clinic. Rockford Memorial Hospital in Rockford, Illinois is the designated hospital for handling contaminated injured personnel. l l l BYA 7-21

SECTION 1 INTRODUCTION This study presents evacuation time es.imates for those portions of Illinois within the plume exposure pathway Emergency Planning Zone (EPZ) for the Byron Nuclear Generating Station, hereafter referred to as Byron Station. The Byron Station is located near the Rock River in Rockvale, Illinois (Figure 1-1). The Byron Station plume exposure pathway EPZ includes portions of ogle and Winnebago Counties. Figure 1-1 presents a map of the Byron Station EPZ. 1.1

SUMMARY

l The evacuation time estimates presented in this study have been

'f developed using the NETVAC2 traffic simulation computer model. Detai2ed site-specific evacuation road network and vehicle data, and public response time distributions have been used in NETVAC2 to determine 3          evacuation time estimates.         For each of ten primary evacuation zones,
   ,          evacuation time estimates for the general population within the Byron I

r l Station EPZ have been developed for eight combinations of conditions: summer and winter seasons; daytime and nighttime: normal and adverse t weather. Results of the general population evacuation time estimates, for these eighty scenarios, rounded to the nearest minute, are j summarized in Tables 1-1 and 1-2. Results indicated that summer and winter evacuation time estimates are similar. Tables 1-1 and 1-2 show that for normal weather conditions in summer and winter, the general population evacuation time estimates for the full plume exposure pathway EPZ range from approximately 191 minutes l [ l 1-1 (

during the day to 111 minutes at night. In adverse weather, these time estimates range from approximately 227 minutes for day to approximately 123 minutes for night scenarios, respectively. Evacuation time estimates for the general population have also been prepared for various other evacuation scenarios in the 0-2, 0-5, and 0-10 mile evacuation zones. Summer and winter normal weather 0-2 mile evacuation time estimates range from 184 minutes during the day to 110 minutes at night. Adverse weather condition evacuation time P estimata.. for 0-2 miles for the same time periods are 217 minutes during the day and 120 minutes at night. The 0-5 mile estimates are slightly longer for some scenarios, prin arily due to the larger number of vehicles in the 0-5 mile zones. Normal weather conditions result in a range of 184 to 191 minutes for the day to 96 to 110 minutes at night. [' The 0-5 mile adverse weather estimates range from 217 to 226 minutes during the day to 98 to 122 minutes at night. I 1' In normal weather conditions, the evacuation times.for the other 0-10 I mile primary evacuation zones during the day are about 191 minutes and L at night range from 106 to 111 minutes. The adverse weather condition

k. time estimates range from 226 to 227 minutes for daytime and from 114 to 123 minutas for nighttime.

l- Special facility evacuation time estimates range from approximately l1 50 minutes to 60 minutes for normal weather, and from approximately l

51 minutes to 68 minutes for adverse weather scenarios. These estimates l
have been based on winter simulations for the general population, since l

schools are the most numer ous special facilities in the EPZ. 1-2

o s. r f 1.2 PURPOSE This evacuation time estimate study has been developed in support of the State of Illinois Plan for Radiological Accidents (IPRA), Byron Volume VI, Revision 0, 12-82, and Commonwealth Edison's Generating Stations Emergency Plan Byron Annex. The primary purpose of this 1 evacuation time estimate study is to analyze the feasibility of I evacuation for the Byron Station Emergency Planning Zone. This evacuation study has been prepared in close coordination with the State of Illinois Emergency Services and Disaster Agency (ESDA) personnel responsible for the preparation of the Byron Volume of IPRA. It is important to note that while the Byron Volume of IPRA is a detailed emergency operations plan, this study presents representative time frames for the evacuation of various areas around the Byron Station for a range of seasonal, diurr.al, and weather conditions. This study has been favorably reviewed by Ogle County and State of Illinois ESDA i officials. Copies of this study have been provided to these ESDA i (; officials. 1.3 SCOPE This study has been prepared by the Commonwealth Edison Company in compliance with the recommendations of Appendix 4 to NUREG-0654/ FEMA-REP-1, Rev. 1, Evacuation Time Estimates within the Plume Exposure Pathway Emergency Planning Zone,1 which is the current regulatory guidance for preparing evacuation time estimates. Section 2 presents the evacuation study areas and evacuation scenarios. Section 3 discusses the various demographic and vehicle data utilized in this 1-3 i

SECTION 2 EMERGENCY PLANNING ZONE AND EVACUATION SCENARIOS The study area for potential evacuation is the plume exposure pathway emergency planning zone (EPZ) for the Byron Station. Since it may not be necessary or desirable to evacuate the entire plume exposure pathway EPZ at once, for the purposes of this study, several evacuation study areas have been defined within the plume exposure pathway EPZ. 2.1 EVACUATION STUDY AREAS The evacuation study areas for the plume exposure pathway EPZ approximate the 0-2 mile, 2-5 mile, and 5-10 mile sectors suggested in 7 NUREG-0654. These evacuation study areas have been discussed with and favorably reviewed by ESDA officials of Ogle County and the State of [ Illinois, i- . Figure 2-1 identifies the ten evacuation study areas. Table 2-1 lists their locations in addition to the communities and facilities contained within each study area. 2.2 PRIMARY EVACUATION ZONES To facilitate preparation of realistic evacuation time estimates, the l l evacuation study areas have been grouped into ten primary evacuation l zones. These evacuation zones have been designated as follows:

                    . 0-2 mile, Evacuation Study Areas A and B l~                   . 0-5 mile, Evacuation Study Areas A,B and C

l l Evacuation time estimates have been developed for each of these primary

   .             evacuation zones for the conditions discussed in the following sections.

2.3 EVACUATION SCENARIOS i Evacuation scenarios have been developed to simulate evacuation conditions established by the combination of primary evacuation zones with a specified season, time of the day, and weather condition during which an evacuation may be necessary. There are ten primary evacuation zones, two seasons (summer and winter), two time considerations (daytime and nighttime), and two weather lL i conditions (normal and adverse). Therefore, a total of eighty

 ,.              evacuation scenarios have been considered in this evacuation time estimate study.

The summer season attracts vacationers to the recreational facilities in l [ the area of Byron Station. Therefore, the summer daytime scenarios have

 ;               included     the permanent resident,      daytime employee,    seasonal,  and visiting or transient populations. The summer nighttime scenarios have included the permar.ent resident,       nighttime employee,     and overnight 1

l j 2-2 l l

            ~

i transient populations. The winter daytime scenarios have included the permanent resident, school student, and daytime employee populations. The winter nighttime scenarios have included the permanent resident population, and nighttime employee populations. These baseline evacoation scenarios are representative of weekday conditions because they are the most frequent situations. To address f the weekend events, additional simulations of special events have been undertaken (see Section 6). These special events include the Autumn on Parade, which occurs the first weekend in October and large weekend events at the Byron Dragway and Motosport Speedway. Section 3 further describes the aforementioned populations. Normal and adverse weather conditions have also been considered. Adverse weather ! has been defined as those conditions that reduce road capacity to 70 percent of normal weather capacity, and includes conditions that may impair visibility and/or traction, such as light snow, icing, rain, or l' fog. l I 1 l l l l 2-3 l 1

         .. n, SECTION 3 DEMOGRAPHIC AND VEHICLE DATA Demographic data for this study has been derived from the official 1980 census data.7 Additional information has been provided from field survey work,    and ogle County and State of Illinois Emergency Services P

and Disaster Agency (ESDA) officials. Further information has been p obtained by Illinois ESDA personnel from local property owners and employers. The vehicle data has been derived from the demographic data r~t and the Ogle County average number of persons per household. It has f been assumed that each household represents one vehicle. The number of L registered vehicles in Ogle and Winnebago Counties supports the adequacy of this assumption. Figures 3-1 through 3-10 present specific population and vehicle data by compass sector and distance from the

   ;           Byron Station for various seasonal and diurnal conditions.

i r This study has identified 21,622 permanent residents within the evacuation study areas. Figures 3-1 .and 3-2 present the permanent (resident) population and vehicle data by compass sector and distance. F The summer daytime period represents the period of greatest population, reaching about 42,800 persons due to the additional count of seasonal transients, employees and appropriate special facilities population. The summer daytime period also has the greatest number of vehicles due !I to the increase in transient (non-resident) population. The summer b nighttime population is about 31,100 representing the permanent population, overnight transients, and appropriate special facilities population. The winter daytime population is about 34,900. Students and employees residing within the EPZ have been counted twice in the l !_ 3-1 i! l

winter day population, thus resulting in a conservative estimate. The " winter nighttime population is essentially representative of the i permanent (resident) population and represents the lowest population and fewest vehicles for the evacuation study areas. Table 3-1 summarizes the population and vehicle data by seasonal period for each of the evacuation study areas. This population data does not' include short term events such as the Autumn on Parade and large events at the Byron Dragway and Motosport Speedway. I I 3.1 SUMMER SEASON POPULATION DATA I The summer season extends from Memorial Day weekend through Labor Day i. weekend. There is a significant population influx during this season. i !! 3.1.1 Summer Daytime Data r i Summer daytime population includes sammer visitors, campers, and boaters (see Table 3-4), and appropriate special facilities (see Table 3-5), in addition to the permanent and employee populations. Figures 3-3 and 3-4 present this data by sector for population and vehicles, respectively. 3.1.2 Summer Nighttime Data r The seasonal population increase caused by overnight transients (i.e., campgrounds, summer camps, and other special facilities), and the l associated vehicles, have been added to the winter nighttime population and vehicle distribution to obtain the summer nighttime data shown by sector on Figures 3-5 and 3-6. l l [? 3-2 I +

1 3.2 WINTER SEASON POPULATION DATA . The winter season includes the non-tourist months, when schools are in i session. In this study, this season extends from Labor Day through

    >           Memorial Day.

3.2.1 Winter Daytime Data { I ! Winter daytime populations include permanent residents, school !! enrollments (see Table 3-2), employees (see Table 3-3), appropriate camps and recreational facilities (see Table 3-4), appropriate special f facilities (see Table 3-5), and the visitors at facilities where j significant populations have been known to gather. The winter daytime p populations and vehicle data are shown by compass sector on Figures 3-7 i I t and 3-8. 3.2.2 Winter Nighttime Data ( l Winter nighttime populations include permanent residents, employee night-shift populations, and appropriate special facilities (see Table 3-5). These population estimates and corresponding vehicle data

l. are shown by compass sector on Figures 3-9 and 3-10.

l1 3.3 SPECIAL FACILITIES POPULATION DATA For the purpose of this study, special facilities are those institutione. ( or other population concentrations, which are transportation-dependent or have other special problems such as long mobilization times. These i special facilities include schools, major employers, recreation areas, i health care facilities, and the Ogle County jail. l L. I 3-3 l ' _ - m__

Y u SECTION 4 EVACUATION TIME ESTIMATE METHODOLOGY AND ASSUMPTIONS t ! This section presents the methodology and assumptions used to develop the evacuation tine estimates for the general population and special facilities. 4.1 GENERAL POPULATION EVACUATION TIME ESTIMATES I ,' The general population, for the purposes of developing evacuation time l, estimates, has been defined as being composed of the permanent population, transients, and special facilities population appropriate for each of the particular evacuation scenarios. The general population evacuation time estimates are presented in Section 6.1. 1

                                              ~

i The general population evacuation time estimates have been calculated I (_ using the NETVAC2 computerized traffic simulation modela which has been developed to simulate the traffic flow over a transportation network i during an evacuation. As input for the evacuation time estimates, this model utilizes site specific road network and vehicle data, as well as public notification and mobilization times. i 4.1.1 Evacuation Time Estimates Methodolocy L The NETVAC2 model has been developed primarily for calculating the I' evacuation times for areas around nuclear power facilities. This model simulates the flow of traffic from entry nodes, where the vehicles enter the road network, to the exit nodes, located outside the EPZ boundary, where the vehicles leave the network. The model uses the Highway 4-1

          ,o     ..

N Capacity Manuala equations and revisions contained in the Interim Material on Highway capacity 4 to calculate the capacity of the road

                      . network. In addition, vehicle speeds on the road network are computed using      the inverse linear relationship between speed and density presented in the Highway capacity Manual. The NETVAC2 model has been extensively used for other evacuation studies similar to the Byron Study,and the results in those other studies have been favorably i

reviewed by the appropriate local, State and Federal authorities. r . The NETVAC2 model allows a detailed evacuation road network to be f

   !                   analyzed by utilizing an area specific data base, which includes link (road segment) length, lane width, number of lanes, node (intersection, point of entry, or point of exit) approach width,          shoulder width, l                   traffic controls, signal timing, turning lanes, and direction of turns.

This data is used to determine road network capacity and direction of traffic flow. The evacuation road network is discussed in Section 5.

 ;$                    Additional input data is ured by the model to derive vehicle loading rates for each primary evacuation zone.          Vehicles are entered at

-! specific points (nodes) on the network and their loading rates varied with time. Therefore, the vehicle loading rate is tailored to match actual population centers and time distributions of the public's l response to notification. This notification response has been approximated by a probability distribution of the public's reaction time during an evacuation and is discussed in detail in Section 4.1.2. In addition, NETVAC2 uses dynamic route choice, which mear.s that vehicle turning movements at individual intersections are changed with traffic

  ,                                                          4-2 i

conditions to reduce the number of vehicles that have turned onto a congested roadway. Appendix A discusses the NETVAC2 Model in greater detail. 4.1.2 Public Response Times and Network Loading Rates The range and variation of public reaction to evacuation notification have been described by a probability distribution of response times. This response time distribution has been derived by combining the response time distributions for several smaller components or events of ! the public response to the evacuation notification process. These i l l events have been assumed to be the following: i

                          .        Receive Warning,               the time period from when the prompt public notification system is activated to when the public has i

received the message to evacuate:

                          .        Leave               W--h, the time period required for employees to leave work and travel to their vehicles;
                          .        Travel from Work to Home, the time period required to drive t

from work to homs; and

                          .        Evacuate the Home, the time period required to pack belongings and prepare home for absence.

Total mobilization times have been determined by combining these events for each evacuation scenario. Average public response times for each of j the above events are shown in Table 4-1. These event times have been l (~ favernbly reviewed by ogle County and State of Illinois ESDA officials. l l 4-3

k A normal distribution has been asswned for the time spread of these individual events. Normal distribution represents the situation in which most persons respond in the average time for a given ev.ent and lesser numbers of individuals respond earlier and later than the average time. Therefore, the cumulative probability distribution of each of these events is an "S" shape. The curves have been derived by using standard mathematical techniques based on NUREG-0654/ FEMA-REP-1 . recommendations.1 Figure 4-1 presents the distribution curves used for this study. Nighttime curves have been derived by combining two events: Receive Warning and Evacuate Home. Daytime curves have been derived by combining the Receive Warning, Ieave Work, Travel Home, and Evacuate

    ,                Home time distributions. The cumulative distribution of these different events combined has an              "S"   shape similar to the curves for the
   !                 individual events, and represents the spectrum of public response times.

These public response time curves have been used to determine the rate and time for vehicle loading. These curves provide information on the percentage of people leaving their homes within specific perieds of time. Vehicles were loaded onto the evacuation roadway network using the percentage and times cutlined in the public response time curves. j 4.1.3 Assumptions Used in Developing the Evacuation Time Estimates t The following assumptions have been used in this evacuation time !, estimate study:

                          .           All    persons within the plume exposure pathway EPZ when instructed to evacuate, will leave.

4-4

                   . People in the outer primary evacuation zones will not evacuate when an inner primary evacuation zone is the only zone to be evacuated.
              ~    . The prompt public notification system, which utilizes sirens, will be used.   (Based on this system,     the time to notify essentially 100 percent of the fell plume exposure pathway EPZ population has been estimated to be 15 minutes.)
                   . Traffic rules and controls will be obeyed, only the proper travel lane will be used (not shoulders or opposite flow lanes), and all traffic lights will be operating normally.
                   . Appropriate traffic and accere, control points will be manned.
                   . Evacuation routes will be passable.
                   . No major traffic will be on the road network prior to the start I

of an evacuation.

                   . Roadway capacities will be reduced to 70 percent of normal weather capacity during adverse weather.5 l
                   . Private vehicles will be the primtry mode of evacuation.

l

                   . Only one car per household will be used in an evacuation.

(There are 2.8 persons per household, based on people per

            /
         /           household in Ogle County.7)
       /
     /
   /               . The     people without cars will receive rides from either f

neighbors or designated public service vehicles. 4-5 7

                 . One car per employee at major employers and schools will be used in an evacuation.
                 . Boats will moor and the occupants will then evacuate by car with one vehicle allotted per boat.
                 . One car per campsite at recreational campgrounds will be used I

for evacuation. (This assumes 3.3 people per car as this is the Illinois State average number of people per family.s)

                 . Adequate transportation will be available for summer camps.

4.2 SPECIAL FACILITIES TIME ESTIMATE METHODOLOGY AND ASSUMPTICNS In addition to an estimate of the time required to evacuate the general population, NUREG 0654 recanmends that a separate estimate be made of i i the time required to evacuate special facilities within the EPZ. ll Special facilities, as defined in NUREG 0654, can include health care facilities, nur;ing homes, jails, schools, and other facilities requiring special transportation or mobilization considerations during

 ,        an evacuation.         For this study,      special facilities identified as 1!

I requiring separate estimates included schssis, nursing homes, and the Ogle county jail. These evacuation time estimates for special facilities are presented in Section 6.2. 1 Special facility evacuation time estimates include mobilization time for obtaining transportation, time for loading persons into vehicles, and the travel time out of the EPZ. Mobilization and loading times for special facilities have been obtained by State of Illinois ESDA personp1 through interviews with facility officials. Speciel 4-6

9 facilities and transient populations have been loaded on the network with an average of 15 minutes to receive warning and an average of 30 minutes to prepare to leave. The 30-minute average time for preparation to enter the roadway conforms to the estimates provided by school officials through State of Illinois ESDA personnel. Therefore, the response curve for these populations is similar, with respect to time, to the night scenario shown on Figure 4-1, since that curve is F also the combination of a 15-minute and a 30-minute event. Travel time out of the plume exposure pathway EPZ has been determined using the average vehicle speed calculated by the NETVAC2 model. along the appropriate evacuation route. Data for these calculations has been taken from the general population evacuation simulation for the full EPZ winter daytime scenario for both normal and adverse weather conditions. The winter simulation has been utilized for these special facility evacuation time estimates since the winter period is concurrent with the school year. The individual mobilization time estimates for each i special facility have been combined with the travel time out of the plume exposure pathway EPZ to calculate the total special facilities evacuation time. l 4 l l_  : 4-7 l

SECTION 5 EVACUATION ROAD NETWORK DESCRIPTION 5.1 ROAD NETWORK DEFINITION The series of roads designated to evacuate the plume exposure pathway EPZ is called the evacuation road network. The network includes major I arterials- and collector roads. The major intersections have been assigned numbers as nodes in the network. The road segments between these nodes are called links. ricare 5-1 illustrates the series of links and nodes that represent the _ation road network for the Byron Station EPZ. Appendix B presents the location of each node by identifying the names of the roads that intersect at that node. The evacuation road network exit nodes, which are located outside the Byron Station EPZ, have been numbered in I the 800s. This evacuation road network has been derived from official Illinois Department of Transportation maps and has been field verified l by road data collection. The evacuation network has been favorably reviewed by ogle County and State of Illinois ESDA officials. 5.2 EOAD CAPACITIES AND CLASSIFICATIONS l The NETVAC2 model used field data, such as road widths and travel i l( speeds, to calculate the capacity of each of the links and nodes in the evacuation network. The specific capacities and classifications of each . road and intersection in the evacuation network are presented in , t I l Appendix C. The majority of the roads in this study have been j l 5-1 ) l l 1

classified as rural undivided highways, with a few rural divided highways. f 4 9 Ii l l t 1 I l l i 5-2 l

SECTION 6 EVACUATION TIME ESTIMATES

6.1 GENERAL PUBLIC EVACUATION TIMES Evacuation time estimates for the general public, including mobilization and travel times, have been calculated using the NETVAC2 model for the various combinations of the ten evacuation study areas that have been i

discussed in Section 2. Each of the ten primary evacuation zones has I l been analyzed for four population combinations associated with summer and winter, day and night times, and normal and adverse weather conditions. Thus, a total of eighty evacuation scenarios have been [ considered in this evacuation time estimate study. Table 6-1 presents f the evacuation time estimates for these NETVAC2 calculations for each

        ?

[ primary evacuation zone. t l The NETVAC 2 model results have shown that the summer and winter evacuation time estimates for all primary evacuation zones do not differ r I significantly. Under normal weather conditions, evacuation of the full [ EPZ takes about 191 minutes for the daytime scenario and about 106 to l *~ 111 minutes for the nighttime scenario. For adverse weather conditions the evacuation time estimates are about 227 minutes during the day, and about 115 to 123 minutes at night for the full EPZ scenario. [~ In normal weather conditions, the evacuation times for the other 0-10 mile evacuation zones are about 191 minutes during the daytime and range from 106 to 111 minutes for the nighttime condition. The adverse 1

          ,               weather time estimates range from 226 to 227 minutes during the daytime l-                         and from 114 to 123 minutes during the night.

I 6-1

_..mo_ _a 4 _. f The evacuation time estimates for the four 0-5 mile evacuation zones in normal weather for the daytime range from about 184 minutes to about 191 minutes, and for the nighttime evacuation from 96 to 110 minutes. The adverse weather condition evacuation time estimates for the four 0-5 mile evacuation zones during the day range from about 217 minutes to 2?s minutes, and at night from about 98 to 122 minutes. The evacuation l time estimates for the 0-2 mile evacuation zone are only a few minutes less than the 0-5 mile results. Special events evacuation scenarios, such as the Autumn on Parade in Oregon (attendance approximately 25,000 to 30,000) and large weekend events at the Byron Dragway and Motosport Speedway have been analyzed by i separate simulations. Thm.e special events do not increase the time required to evacuate (191 minutes) the primary evacuation zones even with the larger number of vehicles associated with these special events. ? ^I l' 6.2 SPECIAL FACILITIES EVACUATION TIMES As discussed in Section 4.2, the evacuation time estimates for special l facilities have been calculated separately from those of the general population. These results are shown in Table 6-2. The special facilities evacuation times range from approximately 50 to 60 minutes during normal weather conditions, and from about 51 to about 68 minutes i; during adverse weather conditions. The largest component of these time l estimates is the mobilization time, 45 minutes. This indicates that a significant factor in evacuating many special facilities is the time required to ready persons and necessary vehicles, and not the travel time out of the EPZ. 6-2

1 t 6.3 EVACUATION CONFIRMATION TIMES Evacuation confirmation time, as defined by NUREG 0654, is the time I required for emergency service vehicles to traverse the roads within the primary evacuation zones to confirm that all persons desiring to evacuate have done so. The evacuation confirmation times have been estimated by assuming that emergency service vehicles will drive the l evacuated areas, road by road, at 6 miles per hour. This speed allows for the effective use of public address systems. This speed is about I twice the walking speed of an adult. The number of emergency service t {i vehicles available for confirmation of evacuation has been discussed

       ,         with State of Illinois ESDA personnel and 15 vehicles have been assumed.

The t.ime estimates for evacuation confirmation are presented in Table

    ,            6-3.

SECTION 7 i CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS Based upon this evacuation time estimate study, it has been concluded that the entire population within the plume exposure pathway EPZ for Byron Station (including the general public and special facilities) could be evacuated in 3 to 4 hours in most situations. The longest

    -              daytime evacuation time estimate for the full EPZ in normal weather is
   ,               approximately 191 minutes.          The longest daytime     adverse   weather evacuation time estimate for the full ESI is approximately 227 minutes.

For the eighty baseline, evacuation scenarios, the NETVAC2 model results indicate that there has been no queuing (backup) on the evacuation road i network during summer or winter, daytime or nighttime evacuations in either normal or adverse weather conditions. Consequently, the , y evacuation time estimates are only slightly longer than the total public i response times. For the special event evacuation scenarios, the NETVAC2 model results l indicate that there will be queuing in the evacuation road network. The I special event evacuation simulation of the Autumn on Parade indicates

 ;                 queuing in Oregon at all intersections in the evacuation road network.

Also, the special event evacuation simulation of large weekend events at the Byron Dragway and Motosport Speedway indicates queuing along Ge rman Church Road south of the town of Byron including the intersection of 1 Route 72, River Road and German Church Road. j As discussed in Section 6.1, these special events do not increase the i time required to evacuate the primary evacuation zones. The queuing 7-1 1 l

I . t indicated in the special events simulations could be reduced through the

      .                       deployment of traffic control personnel.

The results, conclusions, and recommendations of this study have beca 9 provided to ogle County and State of Illinois Emergency Services and l Disaster Agency officials. V ~

  ,                                                                     NETVAC2 DESCRIPTION

, This Appendix describes the general structure of the NETVAC2 Model and three of its major features: the dynamic route selection, the priority treatment of flow at unsignalized intersections, and the capacity calculat* ion. General Structure i NETVAC2 is organized in four basic units (procedures): the main program,

   .-                          the data procedure, the preprocessor, and the simulator.                                      This section briefly explains the functions of each of these units. The main program I

i controls the entire execution. It starts by calling on the data procedure, which reads in the data and execution instructions, then calls in the preprocessor, which performs some preliminary capacity

< calculations. Next, the main program controls the simulation itself and the reporting of the network conditions at specified intervals including the plotting. This program also controls the rest of the reports and i ,.

the length of the simulation by terminating the program once the network is empty (or after a specified time). l _ The data procedure reads in the network, the parameters and the options ! to be used in the run. This subroutine uses a special list processing tachnique to store the r.etwork; the link list is stored with both i forward and backward pointers. In other words, all the links pointing into and out of any given node can be easily identified at any moment A-2

during the simulation. This list processing technique is one of the keys to the model's computational efficiency. On request, the data procedure performs a set of checks on the network to ensure connectivity and validity. It also performs a set of checks o.- the input data to identify coding errors. It is expected that these checks we,uld be performed only once for each site studied. If errors are found, the routine keeps scanning the network until it has been completely checked and the run is then terminated. The data procedure also produces a set of warnings if unlikely (but possible) situations are encountered.

 /
l+ The processor procedure converts the physical description of each link into measures of capacity, speed and density. For each specified type of link, the preprocessor computes two types of capacity

t . section capacity - which is the capacity along the link regardless of downstream intersection restrictions; and [ t.i

 ,.                          . approach capacity - which is the capacity of the link to handle vehicles approaching the downstream intersection.
       .               Section capacities are associated with highway sections whereas the traffic flow through intersections is controlled by the approach i

capacity. NETVAC2 computes both capacities since they serve different 3, purpo'ses. The section capacity serves as an upper bound on the flow that can move along a link, restricting the number of vehicles that will reach the intersection during a simulation interval and the number of A-3 1

vehicles that can be loaded onto a link from the intersection. The

   .                               approach capacity, on the other hand, limits the number of cars that can actually move through the intersection.                          Vehicles that reach the intersection but cannot move through it are assir id to a queue.

The NETVAC2 simulator includes two seperate procedures, the link pass and the node pass. The link pass handles the flow on the links while the node pass handles the transfer of flow from link to link. Dynamic Route Selection (~ NETVAC2 does not use a pre-specified set of turning movements at each intersection; instead, the turning movements are determined at each I simulation interval as a function of the changing traffic conditions and direction of the links. Drivers approaching an intersection are assumed to make a choice of outhound (away from the intersection) links based on

 !                                 how fast this outbound link can get them to safety. This, in turn, is a
function of the direction of the outbound links (away from the nuclear i

plant or hazard area) and the traffic conditions on the outbound links. ( i The route selection procedure used in NETVAC2 reflects the two above-mentioned choice criteria through a user-supplied " preference factor" which is specified for each link and the speeds on each of the outbound links. To facilitate the explanation of the route choice mechanism, let PF3 denote the perference factor for the j-th outbound

 )

link at some intersection. In other words, the relative 'a priori' preference of link j is PFj kPFk where the sum goes over all the links i. emanating out of the node under consideration (including j). The chcice A-4

probability, or the share of drivers choosing an outbound link j out of a given intersection at (simulated) time t, P3 (t), is determined as a function of the preference factors and the speeds on all the outbound I links are PF x P (t) = I . U)(t) 3 f kPFk

  • U k(t) where Uj(t) is the speed on link j at time t. Note that driver behavior t during an evacuation is assumed to be myopic in that only information .

l { regarding the benediate outbound links at each intersection is assumed are to influence route choice decisions. Also note that the P)(t)s t l computed for each incoming link separately due to turning prohibitions from some links into some other links (a reference to the incoming link i

   !             was omitte'd from the notation of the choice probability for clarity of
    '            exposition).

t

    '-                The Priority Treatment Even under evacuation conditions, it can be expected that traffic from certain links approaching an unsignalized intersection would have the right of way over incoming traffic from lower priority approaches.

Since it is not clear that such priority would correspond to the

 '-              existing    intersection controls,              the inupt to NETVAC2 includes a user-specified link priority parameter.              This is a binary parameter I

i j indicating primary or secondary priority of a link. l l r A-5 f I l

i i The volume of vehicles being processed (at every intersection and at each simulation interval) and transferred from inbound to outbound links is subject to several constraints which determine the effective capacity of the intersection. During the simulation, traffic coming in from all ! primary priority links is assigned to the intersection first, subject only to the intersection capacity constraints. Lower p;iority traffic, on the other hand, is restricted by both the capacity of the intersection and the effect of the higher priority traffic.

 ;             The capacity of the secondary priority approaches is a function of the gap acceptance behavior of the minor approach drivers and the headway distribution in the primary approaches' flow. To model the cepacity of secondary priority approaches, a capacity allocation problem procedure l            is utilized. The secondary priority approaches emit traffic only under one of the following conditions:        first,  if there    is   residual intersection capacity from the primary priority traffic, flow can be j,           emitted into the intersection from the secondary priority road subject to the residual capacity constraint. Second, if the residual capacity is zero, NETVAC2 provides some small capacity for the lower priority approaches to allow for " sneak-in" effects.

4 Note that the priority treatment applies only to unsignalized

      -        intersections and that both types of approaches (primary and secondary priority) are treated identically in the model in all respects except for the added constraint on the flow from secondary priority approaches.

l Capacity Calculations The capacity of a transportation facility is the maximum flow that can go through the facility. NETVAC2 determines capacity in two stages: first, the preprocessor assigns a section capacity and an approach capacity to each link in the network. Second, approach capacities are updated throughout the simulation depending on the conditions at certain

                                                                      ~

points in the simulation. l I The capacity calculations are based on the Highway Research Board's

         ;            Highway Capacity Manual (HCM). Following this reference,      the section capacity is calculated in the preprocessor for links with and without j           physical separation between opposing directions while the approach capacity is calculated as a function of the physical conditions (width, I            parking, turning pockets, etc.), environmental conditions (area type, l          .

peak hour and load factors), traffic cha-acteristics (traffic mix and 4 ! percentage of turning movements), and appro ach type. Derivation: of i . (, j ' these calculations are outlined in the users manual for the model. As mentioned before, the approach capacities calculated in the preprocessor are not the actual bounds on the f'.ow. NETVAC2 adjusts the

         .I           approach    capacity continuously in order to refitet the changing vehicular movements resulting from the dyr.amic route selection. The capacity of the i th approach coming inte an intersection at simulation interval t, C;(t) is given by:
         ,                                  Cg (t) = Cg , x AL(t) x AR(t) l
A-7 i

l l

9 1 where Cg is the standard capacity of link i calculated by the preprocessor and AL(t) and AR(t) are the correction factors for left and right turning movements, respectively. These correction factors are a function of the percent of turning traffic, the approach width, and parking allowance, as suggested by the HCM. These factors do not apply when the turning traffic is using special turning lanes or turning pockets. i t
