ADMITTED ON-SITE EMERGENCY PLANNING CONTENTIONS Abbreviations

1. Limerick Generating Station Emergency Plan (hereinafter

" Plan" or Plans")

2. NUREG-0654/ FEMA-REP-1, Rev. 1, " Criteria for Preparation and Evaluatlon of Radiological Emergency Response Plans and Pre-paredness in Support of Nuclear Power Plants" (hereinafter "NUREG-0654")

3. 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix E (hereinafter "Part 50, Appendix E")

,f VIII-1. (Tr. 4817)

The Emergencyl' Plan is inadequate, and does not comply with 10 CFR 5 50.47 and the planning bases for the Commission's regulations on emergency planning in that the spectrum of postulated accidents in Section 4.2 of the. Plan does not encompass the spectrum of credible accidents for which emergency planning is required. The Plan, at 5 4.2, states that "the adequacy of this Emergency Plan is demonstrated'by applying its provisions and noting that the provisions encompass the estimated radiological consequences of the postulated accidents". Table 4-1 shows that the postulated accidents are merely design basis accidents, with a maximum estimated dose at the LPZ of 1090 mrem (LOCA).

The regulations and planning bases for emergency planning plainly contemplate planning for accidents of much greater severity. (See, e.g. NUREG-0396, " Planning Basis for the Development of State and r

Local Government Radiological Emergency Response Plans in Support of Light Water Nuclear Power Plants").

Applicant has not established an adequate emergency classsification and action level scheme as required by 10 CFR 550.47 (b) (4) and NUREG-0654 guidance, in that:

(a) Initiating conditions of the Plan do not include all of the postulated accidents in the LGS FSAR, as required by NUREd-0654, Criterion D.2. Section 4.2 of the Plan lists only eleven of the many accidents postulated in the FSAR. No-justification is pro-vided for choosing these eleven and omitting all others.

(b) Initiating conditions of Table 4.2 of the Plan do not include all applicable example conditions listed in Appendix 1 of NUREG-065), as required by Criterion D.2 of that guidance document. Specifically, (1) Example initiating condition 12 of the Appendix 1

~

" Unusual Event" classification is not addressed in Table 4.2 of the Plan.

(2) Example initiating conditions 10, 16, 17b, 18a,b,c,e of the Appendix 1 " Alert" classification are not addressed in Table 4.2 of the Plan. 17c is in-l adequately addressed, in that Applicant's Plan designates " tornado strikes power block" rather l

l than tornado striking any portion of the facility, as an initiating condition for the " Alert" classi-j fication. 17d is inadequately addressed, in that l wind speeds for " Alert" and " site Area Emergency" have not been assigned to distinguish between these class?.fication'

will cause chaos in the event of the unavailability of the persons

' listed, as the responsibilities of the emergency director are specifically not delegated to other segments of the emergency organization, which include the initiation of protective measures on-site.-

(c) The Applicant's staffing provisions (See Plan, Figures 5-1, 5-2, 5-5 and Table I-1) do not comply with the minimum staffing requirements set forth in NUREG-0654, Table B-1 (pp 37-23) in that:

(3)' 30 and 60 mihute augmentations of minimum staffing does not comply with Table B-1 (See Plan, Table I-1) and while Figure 5-2 is referenced in Table I-1,neither augmentation timing, nor position augmentation are coherently shown.

(e)- The responsibilities imposed upon the Interim Emergency Director or Emergency Director in 55.2.1.1 (which are explicitly "not delegated to other segments of the emergency organization")

are excessive and cannot reasonably be implemented by a single individual. According to Fig. 5.3 of the Plan, the Interim Emergency Director (or Emergency Director) is responsible for making a very large number of initial contacts in the event of an emergency. In addition, the list of other non-delegable duties of the Interim Emergency Director, as listed in S5.2.1.1 of the Plan, is lengthy and complicated. It is unreasonable to assume that one individual can receive all relevant information from plant operators, transpose-it into complete, accurate and useful information for l

emergency-relevant organizations, and transmit it to them in a timely manner, while carrying out all of his other duties. 'The Interim Emergency Director should concentrate on decision-making and managing and coordinating the appropriate response mechanism; initial notification responsibilities themselves should be delegated to other' qualified individuals.

The LNGSEP fails to demonstrate that adequate emergency facilities and equipment to support emergency response are provided and maintained as required by 10 CFR 5 50.47 (b)

(8), especially in that:

(b) The Plan's descriptions of the Emergency Operations Facility (Plan 5 7.1. 2) , the Technical Support Center (Plan 5 7.1.3), the Operational Support Center (Plan 5 7.1.4), and emergency equipment and supplies are all insufficient to mean-ingfully assess compliance with 10 CFR 5 50.47 (b) (8) and to evaluate the facilities with with respe'c t t6 the criteria of NUREG-0654, Supplement 1 to NUREG-0737 (58), and NUREG-0696.

The on-site plans fail to comply with 10 CFR 550.47 (b) (2) and the guidance of NUREG-0654, Criterion B.9, in that:

(a) Wh,ere the Applicant has identified the services to be.provided by some local agencies for handling emergencies, the agreements with those local support sources do not delineate the authorities, responsibilities and limits on the actions of the contractors / agencies,~but merely briefly describe the general nature of the service to be provided.

(b) Section 2.2.4 of the Plan lists the Radiation Medicine Center of the Hospital of University of Pennsylvania (HUP) as a local agency that has agreed to respond to requests for assistance at Limerick. 'Section 5.3.2.1 of the Plan states that HUP will be

one of two hospitals to which victims are evacuated from.the site,

<- and'11sts the extensive capabilities of that organization, which is designated as the " central point" of PECO's Emergency Medical Assistance Plan. On the other hand, section 6.5.4 of the Plan,

-entitled Medical Treatment, totally omits mention of HUP as a support service. The Plan contains no written agreement for support services from HUP, as required by NUREG-0654, Criterion B.9.

The fact that the director of Radiation Management Corporation, t

l which is under contract with PECO, is on the staff of HUP (see Plan, l

55.3.2.1) in no way guarantees that HUP will provide services without a prior written agreement.

(a) While medical services and facilities are described in sections 5.3.2.1 - 5.3.2.5 of the Plan, it has not been demonstrated that these services and facilities are adequate for the potential number of persons contaminated by the spectrum of credible accident scenarios.for which planning is required, including some core-melt sequences (see NUREG-0396). The plans contain an agreement with Pottstown Memorial Hospital, a facility only two miles from the site, to provide emergency treatment to contaminated patients.

In a general'Nmergency, the hospital will be required to evacuate its own patients, which will preclude acceptance and treatment a

of radiation victims coming from the site. The status of medical support from the Hospital of University of Pennsylvania is unclear

- as well _ (see contention VIII-9 (b) , above). These are the only two hospitals' listed in the Plan as available for me' dical services to on-site' contaminated victims. See NUREG-0654, Criteria .B.9 and L.l.

(10), in that:

(a) The Plan fails to demonstrate that the Applicant has made sufficient provisions for evacuation routes and transporta-tion for on-site individuals to a suitable off-site location, including alfernatives for inclement weather, high traffic-density, and specific radiological conditions, as required by NUREG-0654, Criterion J. 2., especially in that no routes have been designated in the Plan, no suitable off-site location has been designated,

especially in that the plans do not reflect the time within which the taking of whole body counts and the processing of dosimetry devices of evacuees, can be completed; nor do the plans indicate that all plant personnel, visitors, construction workers, etc.

who may be exposed to radioactivity during an accident will have possession of dosimetry devices; nor do the plans indicate ~ when and how techniques will be established which will provide data for estimating neutron dose where suspected. With respect to neutron F

. Section 9 of the Plan submitted to date indicates that no recovery and re-entry plans have been developed, and specific plans will not be developed until needed. (Plan, 5 9.2). Intervenor con-tends that the failure to provide even general plans violates.

10 CFR 5 50.47 (b) (13).

22.

(b) The Plans fail to describe the means by which decisions to relax protective measures will be reached, considering both existing and potential conditions; (c) The Plan fails'to specify the method to be used for periodically estimating the total population exposure. Applicant's response-to a 810.60 states that this information will not be available'until shortly before fuel loading.

The on-site plans' fail to demonstrate that responsibilities fo - .,

plan development and review and for distribution of emergency plans are established and planners are properly trained as required by 10 CFR I 50.47 (b) (16), in that:

(b) The Plan fails to demonstrate that the organization or persons responsible for annual review of the emergency preparedness for the Applicant are independent, and that-the results of review and recommendations will be reported to all involved federal, state and local organizations, and retained for five years, as required by NUR$G-0654, Criteria P. 9. Applicant's response to Q. 810.67 and;810.68 indicate that procedures will be developed by the third quarter of 1984.

identified as a result of exercises or drills will be corrected,

,as required by 10 CFR E 50.47 (b) (14), in that:

(b) The Plan. provision for testing of communications is inadequate, in that the guidance of NUREG-0654 Criterion N. 2. (a) requires quarterly testing of communications with States within the ingestion pathway, whereas E 8.1.2.5 of the Plan does not provide for such testing; (d) 'The-Plans fail to demonstrate that either the Applicant or the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania will conduct semi- e annual health physics drills which involve response to and analyses of, simulated elevated airborne and liquid samples and direct' radiation ~ measurements in the environment, as required by NUREG-0654, Criteria N. 2.

(e) (2), p. 73; (g) The Plan's provisions for maintaining emergency prepundness fail to- provide that the drills required by NUREG-0654, Criteria N. 2. (a) through (e) will be held in addition to an annual exercise, as the guidance requiras, but instead provides that " scenarios may be developed in such a manner as to accomplish:more than one periodic requirement" (Plan E 8.1.1) ;

F 25.

(h) The Plan's provisions for annual exercises fail to set forth whether the local emergency responso organizations will be required to be activated, thus constituting an actual exercise of the integrated emergency response capability, or whether the local emergency response organizations will merely -

be notified by the Applicant, thus constituting only a test of the communications system. This violates the guidance of NUREG-0654, Criterion N. 1. (b) , which requires that an exercise "shall include mobilization of . . . local personnel and resources adequate to verify the., capability to respond to an accident scenario re-quiring response."
