Dear Mr. Youngblood:

Reference:

(1) Enrico Fermi Atomic Power Plant, Unit 2 NRC Docket No. 50-341 (2) NRC Letter to Detroit Edison, " Emergency Preparedness Plans for the Fermi-2 Facility,"

July 22,1983

Subject:

Emergency Preparedness Plans for the Fenni-2 Facility The reference (2) letter detennined the need for certain additional items of information concerning the emergency preparedness plans for Fenni-2. Each of the items enumerated in the letter is discussed below.

1.

Emergency Action Levels (EALs) - The NRC comments concerning EALs have been resolved and will be incorporated in Revision 2 to the Emergency Plan. As previously agreed, this revision will be available one month prior to the NRC appraisal of Edison emergency preparedness presently scheduled for October.

2.

Interaction with state and local officials - We are continuing to work with state and local government concerning the timeliness of notification of the public and training for local emergency response personnel.

3.

Warning System - A description of the prompt notification system will be included in Revision 2 to the Emergency Plan. The system

.is presently being installed and will be fully functional prior to fuel load.

Mr. B. J. Youngblood July 27, 1983 EF2 - 63,971 Page 2 4.

As summarized by the Atomic Safety and Licensing Appeal Board, the County asserts that it (1) lacks the bus capacity to evac-uate people who are without transportation, (2) doubts the willingness and training of volunteer emergency workers to car-ry out all of their assigned tasks, (3) lacks sufficient funds or expertise to undertake recovery and reentry operations, (4) questions whether an evacuation can be successfully accom-plished, given the length of time needed to mobilize command officials, the inadequacy of existing roads and the frequent impassability of the roads in winter, (5) lacks sufficient personnel to staff decontamination / reception centers, (6) questions whether potassium iodide supplies can be made avail-able quickly, (7) believes the monitoring systems now in place to detect radiological releases are inadequate and (8) doubts that the method chosen for decontamination of cars and trucks is ao3quate.

Each item above is addressed by Detroit Edison in the attached enclosure. The information prescated concerning bus availability, bus capacity, population without, automobile transportation, and County Agency staffing is current as of the end of 1981. All population data used for evacuation times is based on the 1980 census and is taken from " Estimate of Evacuation Times", Enrico Fermi Atomic Power' Plant, Unit 2, PRC Voorhees, Revised March 1982.

Should you have any questions, please contact Mr. Larry E. Schuerman, (313) 586-4207.

Sincerely, cc: Mr. P. Byron j

ASSERTION 1 TIIE COUNTY LACKS Ti1E DUS CAPACITY TO EVACUATE PEOPLC W110 ARE WITilOUT TRANSPORTATION.

RESPONSE

o GVERALL BUS CAPACITY IS ADEQUATE There is adequate bus transportation for the evacua-tion of all population without automobile transporta-tion within the Monroe County 10-mile Emergency Planning Zone (EPZ).

The available bus fleet, consisting of scinol and public transit buses, in the County provides 21,800 seats of capacity.

An evacuation in Monroe County within a 10-mile radius of Fermi 2 consisting of the raaximum pop-ulation area (MPA) as shown cn Figure 1, would require the transport of approximately 16,930 persons without automobile transportation.

Ave.ilable bus capacity, therefore, is adequate tc transport the population of the 10-mile MPA with less than two runs per bus.

o EVACUATION TIMES ARE ACCEPTABLE In an evacuation of the 10-mile MPA, the available bus fleet is adequate to evacuate all school popula-tion within 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> 55 minutes after the start of notification and all non-school population within 3 hours3.472222e-5 days <br />8.333333e-4 hours <br />4.960317e-6 weeks <br />1.1415e-6 months <br /> 55 minutes after the start of notification.,

i o

IIUMBER OF BUS RUllS REQUIRED IS REASO!1ABLE l

In an evacuation of the 10-mile MPA, the entire popu-(

lation without automobile transportation can be evacuated with the available bus capacity with an i

average of 0.77 runs for each available bus.

o TOLERAllCE FOR COllTI!JGE!1CICS IS IIIGil The population without automobile transportation within Monroe County can be effectively evacuated even when a significant fraction of the available bus fleet is not s..oLilized.

If only 60 percent of the available bus 11eet were mobilized, the population could be evacuated with less than two runs per bus, with resulting evacuation times of 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> 55 minutes for school population and 3 hours3.472222e-5 days <br />8.333333e-4 hours <br />4.960317e-6 weeks <br />1.1415e-6 months <br /> 25 rainutes for other population.

3 In an evacuation of the 10-mile MPA, an average of 0.77 runs per bus is required for the evacuation of all population without automobiles.

Therefore, the entire population without automobiles could be evac-uated in a single run of all buses.

In an actual evacuation, however, practical dispatching considera-tions dictate that some buses may make up to three runs.

In an evacuation of the 5-mile MPA, an average of only 0.15 runs per bus is required for the evacuation of all population without automobiles.

In such an evacuation, no more than two runs would be required by any aingle bus. _ _ _-

_ TOLERANCE FOR CONTINGENCIES IS HIGII Table 1.4.1 suramarizes evacuation times and bus runc for an evacuation of the 10-mile MPA.

Three alter-nate bus racbilization schemes are examined:

100 percent, 80 percent, and 60 percent.

Table 1.4.1 indicates that evacuation: of popdlation-without automobiles is not adversely affected1by failure to mobilize the entire bus fleet.

It only 60 percent of the available-bus fleet is mobilized, the population vf the 10-mile MPA can be evacuated.in 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> 55 minutes (school population) and 3 hours3.472222e-5 days <br />8.333333e-4 hours <br />4.960317e-6 weeks <br />1.1415e-6 months <br /> 25 minutes (non-school population).

These times are identical to those estimated with 100 percent mobili-zation of the bus fleet and reflect that, even with only 60 percent bus raobilization, evacuation can be accomplished with no more than three-runs for any-given bus.

2.1 VOLUNTEER EMERGENCY WORKERS WILL BE WILLING TO PERFORM TiiEIR EMERGENCY RESPONSE FUNCTIONS A.

Prior Understanding Of Responsibilities All emergency workers, volunteer as well as full-time, will be instructed in their specitic emergency response activities.

Section 2.2 of this response contains a description of the training program.

Further understanding of their responsibilities by individual emergency workers will be gained through par:ticipation in drills and exercises.

Evaluations of these activities are conducted and remedial measures are adopted in response to the evaluations.

An annual training program will assure that County agencies and_their associated volunteer workers maintain their understanding of their responsibilities in a radiologica1' emergency response and are informed of any changes in plans and' procedures.

B.

Extent Of Response Activities In Non-Risk Areas Most activities carried out by volunteer emer-gency workers are performed in.non-risk areas of the County, either outside the EPZ or within the EPZ, but. clear of any evacuation or risk area.

Table 2.1.1 summarizes the assignmentLlocation of all emergency workers (volunteer as well as' full-time).

As indicated in the table, only 344 of the total emergency workers in the County, or 31 percent, have tull-time emergency assignment locations'Anside theLEPZ.

Significantly,_most of these are public safety workers.

Fire-fighters, police officers, and RADEF; personnel account for 85 percent of all personnel assigned full-time within the EPZ.

Most of the emergency; workers'from non-uniformed

agencies, i.e.,

from llealth,'SocialsServices and School' agencies,~are assigned!outside_the: EPZ.

Exposure Control for Emergency Workers The protection of workers in response to a radiological emergency is further assured by the provision of a comprehensive program of radio-logical exposure control consisting of Issuance of direct-reading dosimeters to all emergency workers with any responsi-bilities within a risk area Maintenance of exposure records for all emergency workers with responsibilities within risk areas Field monitoring by_the State for the accurate identification-of risk areas Provisions for the rotation of emergency worker assignments in risk areas Training and refresher training of all emergency workers with possible responsi-bilities within the EPZ in the use of dosi-meters and methods of radiation exposure control.

E.

Recent Research Into Volunteer Emergency Worker Behavior Recent research has been conducted into the ex-pected behavior of public safety workers, both volunteer and non-volunteer firefighters and police officers, in a radiological emergency at a nuclear power plant in Suffolk County, New York.*

This research disclosed that virtually 100 per-cent of the police officers would respond im-mediately to a radiological emergency at the nuclear power station, giving such response a high priority relative to assuring their fami-lies' safety. The same survey disclosed that 55 percent of volunteer firefighters would respond immediately to a radiological emergency at a nuclear power station, and that an additional 34 percent would respond as soon as they assured the safety of their families.

Assuming a prompt notification of firefighters, using their existing alerting systems, it is estimated that this additional 34 percent would be able to assure their families' safety an6 report to duty within one hour after the start of notification.

Consequently, a-total of 89 percent of all local firefighters.within the EPZ are expected to be available within one hour after the start of notification.

I An even higher percentage of availability can be assumed for areas outside the EPZ, since there is no immediate concern for family security in these areas.

In other research* involving a nationwide survey of 3,500 firefighters and police officers in response to 100 disasters of all types, it was found that abandonment of duties by these local personnel was not a significant factor.

In the few instances in'which abandonment was found, it was attributed to poor information and ill-de-fined responsibilities.

b 2.2 VOLUNTEER EMERGENCY WORKERS WILL BE ADEQUATELY TRAINED IN THEIR RESPONSE TO A RADIOLOGICAL EMERGENCY Many of the emergency response activities consist of the day-to-day functions of the participating agen-cies.

In such instances, no additional training is required to prepare workers for response to a radio-logical emergency.

However, some response activities are not within the ordinary day-to-day responsibili-ties of the participating agencies and additional training of emergency workers is conducted.

This training program is jointly developed and presented by the State, County,'and Detroit Edison and covers such topics as:

Basics of radiation Reactor operations Biolcgical effects and detection of radiation Protection of the individual worker Orientation to the Radiological Emergency Res-ponse Plans, Organizations, Land Procedures of the various response organizations Drills and Exercise This training is assured through two sources:.

The County's plan is based almost' entirely on existing resources, particularly manpower and fixed facilities.

In any sustained radiological emergency at Fermi 2, substantial State, Federal, and volunteer resources will become available to support the County.

Specific areas that will require additional resources have not been identified.

3.1 THE RESOURCES FOR CONDUCTING RECOVERY / REENTRY ACTIVITY IN THE COUNTY ARE ADEQUATE.

The County's Emergency Operations Plan, Appendix 1, Nuclear Facility Procedures, hereinaf ter referred to as Emergency Operations Plan, Appendix 1, is based on the use of the existing resources, particularly manpower and fixed facilities.

Through the use of these resources alone, the County has the capability for carrying out the initial response, first 8 to 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br />, of a radiological emergency at Fermi 2.

For a sustained radiological emergency, beyond the initial 8-to'12-hour period and throughout the recovery / reentry period of any radiological emergency, substantial State and Federal resources will become available to support the County.

These resources are summarized in Table 3.1.1.

An adequate level of expertise for effective conduct of recovery / reentry activities is available:

In some instances, responsible-agencies are already capable of performing the response activities by virtue of their existing-training and daily experience.

In other instances, local agencies will be trained through programs already committed by the State.

In some activities, the State will dire ~ct' local agencies, and no further training of local agencies in these activities is required.

Drills and exercises are intended to demonstrate the County's expertise in-conducting a response to a radiological emergency at Fermi 2.

These drills and exercises will identify areas.in.which additional.

-training is-required.

Until such exercises and.

~

remedial training are comp.1.eted,-there-is no' basis for asserting that the County lacks the expertise to conduct an effective recovery / reentry function.

-the Disaster Contingency Fund to provide State assis-tance to a local political subdivision when Federal assistance is not available.

If the demands placed upon the funds of a local political' subdivision coping with a particular disaster are unreasonably great,-the governing body of the political subdivi-

-sion may apply for a grant from the Disaster Contin-gency Fund.

Federal funds could be made available to the County residents via the third-party protection established by the Price-Anderson Act.

In the TMI incident, funds were provided to the local residents for relocation based primarily on the Governor's. decision to evacuate the area and the status of the reactor at the time.

Claims which are denied by the insurer under PriceAnderson can be brought in the. usual legal proceedings to such a remedy.

It should be noted that communities are required by'their very nature and by their formation to be responsible for the1 care and protection.of the people in the community.

l ASSERTION 4 THE COUNTY QUESTIONS WHETHER AN EVACUATION CAN BE SUCCESSFULLY ACCOMPLISHED, GIVEN THE LENGTH OF TIME NEEDED TO MOBILIZE COMMAND OFFICIALS, THE INADEQUACY OF EXISTING ROADS, AND THE FREQUENT IMPASSABILITY OF THE ROADS IN WINTER.

RESPONSE

o COUNTY COMMAND OFFICIALS CAN BE MOBILIZED IN AN EFFECTIVE AND TIMELY MANNER.

The County's command and control response to a radiological emergency at Fermi 2 is identical to the response required in all emergencies, such as natural disasters, other types of technological accidents, civil disturbances, or attack.

This command and control response has been demonstrated in previous emergencies to be effective and timely.

The County's Emergency Operations Plan, Appendix 1, provides for mobilization of key County offi-cials during the early stages of an emergency.

.t The County's Emergency Operations Plan, Appendix 1, provides for decision-making in the event that necessary County command officials cannot be mobilized.

Evacuation response functions are staged over a period of several hours, and effective evacua-tion can begin with only partial mobilization of the emergency work force.

o EXISTING ROADS ARE ADEQUATE FOR EVACUATION AND THERE IS NO DOCUMENTATION TO SUBSTANTIATE THEY ARE FREQUENTLY IMPASSABLE.

Roads are adequate for effective evacuation under all weather conditions.

Under adverse weather conditions, evacuation may require a longer time, however, not to an. extent such that evacuation is ineffective as an emergency response.

There are no facts to substantiate that main roads are frequently impassable.

The County's Emergency Operation Plan, Appendix 1, provides measures for effective evacuation in instances of adverse weather conditions. f

4.1 COUNTY COMMAND OFFICIALS CAN BE MOBILIZED IN AU T

EFFECTIVE AND TIMELY MANNER.

i h

A.

The County 's Commano and Control Response 7p The County's Eraergency Operations Plan, Appendix 1,

provides for the raobilization of key County 4

officials Lor all types of emergencies, natural disasters, technological accidents, civil dis-F turbances, and attack.

This mobilization has been uenonstrated repeatedly in natural disas-P ters such as tornadoes and flcods.

The mobili-zation of key county officials in a radiological f

emergency is iaentical to that used in other

{

emergency situations.

6 Timely warning of key County officials is

(

assured by the W

Dedicated telephone line from Fermi 2 to the honroe City / County Joint Communications

Ay B.

Timing of Alerting of County Officials t5 Tne County's Emergency Operations Plan, Appendix

{

1, provides tor the notification of key County officials comruencing with the declaration of an g

f UUUSUAL EVLUT at Fermi 2.

The Appendix calls i

for the mobilization of the County's Emergency i

Operations Center (EOC) at the declaration of an ALERT.

At this stage, the Joint Communication Center will perform the notification of all agencies involved in a response.

t C.

Alternate Decision-Making Procedures K

Alternates (backups) and the procedures for notifying these alternates for key County offic-ials are oesignated in Appendix 1.

Additional-ta ly, the chain of command and the procedures for

(

ordering emergency responses are specified.

D.

Ef fectiveness of Partial Response In any reasonable accident scenario, the re-quired emergency response actions begin with a geographically limited portion of the 10-mile EPZ depending upon meteorological conditions and may, with the passage of time, extend to broader portions of the EPZ.

This is particularly true of those activities requiring the majority of emergency manpower.

Specifically, such activi-ties include traffic control, perimeter control, transportation of persons without automobiles, and operation of Reception and Congregate Care Centers.

Therefore, an effective response to the initial emergency can be made with the mobilization of only a small portion of the available eraergency manpower in the County.

Within any given level of emergency response, the activities are staged over a period of several hours, and the early phases of response can be started regardless of the status of subsequent phases.

For example, an evacuation can be effectively started with minimal warning (notification) and traffic control capabilities.

Other response activities such as operation of Reception and Congregate Care 1 Centers can be phased in within 60 to 90 minutes after the start of notification.

4.2 EXISTING ROADS ARE ADEQUATE FOR EVACUATION A.

Atomic Safety and Licensing Board Decision During the Atomic Safety and Licensing Board (ASLB) hearings March 3, 1982 to April 2, 1982 evidence was. presented on the adequacy of Point-Aux Peaux Road as the only evacuation route from Stoney Point, the community lying directly}S/SSW of Fermi ~ 2.

~

As a result of.the hearing the ASLB stated in-their initial decision, October 29, 1982, That the evidence of record shows that Pointe Aux Peaux Road is feasible for-evacuating persons'from Stoney'Pointiand that this.is so despitettheJfact.that the road-lies near the' reactor and'despite!the-factLthat persons usingithe road would be-forced to travel toward the reactor for a-.

e short distance.~

B.

Normal Weather Conditions Under normal weather conditions, the evacuation of all automobile traffic from the 10-mile EPZ, as shown in Figure 4.2.1, can be accomplished in 4 hears.

Route-by-route evacuation times, ranging from 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> 40 minutes to the maximum of 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br />, are summarized in Table 4. 2.1.

The estimated evacuation times summarized in the Table account for the capacities of individual roads, and reflect the detailed loading of the EPZ population on the road system.

Further, the estimated evacuation times were computed through use of a traffic simulation model that recog-nizes the possiblitity of queues (backups) and calculates the effect of these queues on the evacuation traffic flow.

C.

Winter Weather Conditions Adverse weather conditions, defined as winter weather conditions, reduce the traffic capacity on roadways as a result of reduced travel speeds and increased headways (distances) between ve-hicles.

Empirical analysis for the 10-mile EPZ has demonstrated that adverse weather conditions can be expected to result in a reduction in roadway capacity to the level of 800 vehicles hourly per traffic lane, or 67 percent of the normal weather capacity of the road.

Under adverse weather conditions, as shown in

~

Table 4.2.2, the estimated evacuation time for all automobile traffic from the 10-mile EPZ is 5 hours5.787037e-5 days <br />0.00139 hours <br />8.267196e-6 weeks <br />1.9025e-6 months <br /> 45 minutes on the most critical evacuation

route, (i.e.,

the route with:the maximum evacua -

tion time).

Route-by-route times range from a minimum of 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> 40 minutes to the maximum' of 5 hours5.787037e-5 days <br />0.00139 hours <br />8.267196e-6 weeks <br />1.9025e-6 months <br /> 45 minutes.

4.3 FREQUENCY OF IMPASSABLE ROAD CONDITIONS

~

A.

Impassibility Due to Snow and' Ice Conditions There;is no evidence to substantiale that County roads are frequently impassable due to snow and ice conditions.

The County agency responsible for snow removal does:notihave' records l showing that-any siven area ('s) presents'; chronic problems

~

l-of impassability'due to repeated failure to.

maintain the passability of -ttua roads.

i -

No public safety agency in the County has iden-tified any road as being consistently impassable as a result of deficiencies in snow removal

. services.

An informal canvass of public and private ser-vices traveling on a' daily basis in the County could not elicit any assertion that County roads have a particularly severe problem with impas-sability cae to snow and ice conditions.

Fur-ther, the U.S.

Postal Service and the local newspaper do not have records supporting the position that County roads are-frequently impassable uue to snow and ice conditions.

B.

Mitigating Measures for Instances Where Roads are Impassable The County's Emergency Operation Plan, Appendix 1,

provides for specific measures to support an evacuation in instances where roads are impas-sable aue to weather conditions.

In the event of an evacuation'during a period of severe winter weather, Appendix 1, provides that Emergency road maintenance equipment and manpower, provided from various sources and under the control of the. County's Emergency Operations Center (EOC), will support the maintenance of roadways required for evacu-ation, ( Appendix 1,. Public Works Annex).

The Law Enforcement Operations Officer will confirm evacuation of households according to Appendix 1, Law Enforcement Annex.

Buses will be available to transport the population without automobiles or are unwilling.to evacuate in their private automobile (Appendix 1, School Annex).

Rescue vehicles,;under the direction of the

' County, LOC, will. lend support to the evacu-ation of the population. unable or not wil-

. ling to evacuate.;in their private automo-bile's (Appendix 1,' Health ~and Medical Annex).

~

Impediments t'o traffic routes will be re--

moved by order'of the law enforcement of ficer atithe scene -( Appendix 1,1 Law l

Enforcement Annex). '

l o

SUFFICIENT STAFF ARE AVAILABLE TO Mall DECO!JTAMIIJA-TIO!J/RECEPTIO!J CCIJTERS.

Five agencies, Ilea lth, Fire, Police or Sheriff, Social Services, and Schools have major respon-sibilties for the operation of Decontamination /

Reception Centers.

These five agencies will supply a total of 42 persons for the staffing cf each keception Center.

Agencies assigned to Decontamination / Reception Centers have sufficient manpower to perform their Reception Center duties as well as their response activities elsewhere in the County.

o WILLIIJGUESS TO WORK IS NOT AN ISSUE.

Willingness to work at Decontamination / Reception Centers is not considered an issue since Recep-tion Centers are located outside evacuated areas and workers are not required to enter a risk area to report for duty.... _ _ _ _

l l

5.1 SUFFICIENT STAFF ARE AVAILABLE TO MAN DECONTAMINATION / RECEPTION CENTERS.

Table 5.1.1 summarizes the staf fing requirements for Decontamination / Reception (hereafter called Recep-tion) Centers.

As indicated in Table 5.1.1 major Reception Cer.ter responsibilities are divided among five agencies and require a total of 42 persons assigned to each center.

Table 5.2.1 summarizes the manpower requirements throughout the entire County tor those five agencies l

having major responsibilities at Reception Centers.

As indicated in Table 5. 2.1, agencies with major responsibilities at Reception Centers have sufficient manpower to perform their Reception Center duties, as well as their assignments elsewhere in the County.

Additional manpower, not reflected in Tables 5.1.1 and 5.2.1, is expected to be available for the sup-port of activities at Reception Centers.

Significant sources of such support include:

Arcerican Red Cross in the areas of evacuee registration, inquiry, and the coordination of volunteer assistance.

Michigan State Police in the area of traffic control in the vicinity of Reception Centers and in maintaining security and order at the Centers.

Roads and Public Works Departments in the trans-portation of materials for Reception Centers and in the provision of temporary facilities.

5.2 WILLINGNESS OF VOLUNTEER STAFF TO WORK AT DECONTAMINATION / RECEPTION CENTERS The County Emergency Operations Plan, Appendix 1, calls for heception Centers to be outside the evacuated areas and consequently, does not require workers at an active Reception Center' to pass through numerous checkpoints to reach an activated Reception Center.

ASSERTION 6 THE COUNTY QUESTIONS WHETHER POTASSIUM IODIDE SUPPLIES CAN BE MADE AVAILABLE GUICKLY.

RESPONSE

o POTASSIUM IODIDE CAN BE MADE AVAILABLE TO COUNTY RESIDENTS ON A TIMELY BASIS.

Both the nichigan Emergency Preparedness Plan (MEPP) and the County's Emergency Operations Plan, Appendix 1, provide for the capability for the County to distribute potassium lodide (KI).

It is therefore within the jurisdiction of the County to respond to its residents concerning this matter.

6.1 POTASSIUM IODIDE CAN BE MADE AVAILABLE TO THE COUNTY:

RESIDENTS ON A TIMELY BASIS.

The hEPP (Annex Q) provides for the State:to distribute KI to all State emergency workers and indicates that local health department directors or their equivalent are to develop and implement plans for the acquisition, storage, and distribution of KI to County emergency workers and County residents based on guidance provided by the btate department.

Based on this, the County has the mechanisms in place.

by which it can formulate procedures'for the aistri-bution of.KI to the residents in a manner that is compatible with the County (Appendix 1, dealth and Medical Annex).

ASSERTION 7 THE COUNTY BELIEVES THE MONITORING SYSTEMS NOW IN PLACE TO DETECT RADIOLOGICAL RELEASES ARE INADEQUATE.

s

RESPONSE

o THE PRESENT MONITORING SYSTEM IS ADEQUATE The present system employer 1 at Fermi 2 for detecting radiological releases from the plant and determining their effects offsite is adequate to respond to normal operation of the plant, as well as emergency conditions.

7.1 ATOMIC SAFETY AND LICENSING BOARD (ASLB)

SUMMARY

DISPOSITION.

Contention 5, as brought before the ASLB read as follows:

The design of the radiation monitoring system is insufficient and incomplete as specified below to adequately monitor radiation releases (a).to demonstrate, during normal operation, conform-ance with Part 20 and Appendix I to 10 CFR Part-50 and (b) to implement the offsite protective actions following accidents set forth in the Applicant's emergency plan.

The deficiencies of the radiation monitoring system are:-

(a)

There is no continuous monitoring sys-tem on_ the lake (for air _ and water). that can be read remotely; and-(b) There is no continuous monitoring system at the site boundary.that can be read remotely.

On November 16, 1981, the NRC Staff made a motion to the ASLB for summary disposition of Contention 5 supported by1 an affidavit and discussion that no material issue of fact existed ' to require litigation of Contention. 5.

On December 11, 1981, Detroit Edison filed 'a motion for sum-mary. disposition in support of the NRC. Staff that was also supported by affidavit and discussion.

Af ter due consideration of the motions, the ASLB'.on January 27,-1982,' in a. Memorandum and Order of the Licens-ing Board, issued a summary disposition ~of_ Contention.5-supporting the fact that the monitoring systems at _ Fermi' 2 are in compliance with regulations and_are adequate. -
