1 O. DOES DUKE'S REVISED BROCHURE TITLED " CATAWBA NUCLEAR 2 STATION EMERGENCY PLAN - 1984 EDITION" MEET THESE 3 CRITERIA?

4 A. Yes. The brochure addresses all of the areas called 5 for in 10 CFR {50.47(b)(7) and 10 CFR Part 50, 6 Appendix E, Part D. 2 and NUREG-0654, Rev. 1 Part G.l.

7 (RMG) 8 O. WHAT DETERMINED THE ORDER IN WHICH THE INFORMATION IN 9 THE BROCHURE APPEARS? FOR EXAMPLE, WHY ARE THE 10 EVACUATION INFORMATION AND SHELTERING LOCATIONS 11 ASSIGNED TO THE BACK OF THE BROCHURE INSTEAD OF THE 12 FRONT?

13 A. Preliminary information on the operation of a nuclear-14 station, facts about radiation, and definitions of 15 nuclear terms were placed in the front cf the 16 brochure to aid the reader in understanding the 17 importance of emergency planning and protective

- 18 actions. In addition, the brochure was intentionally 19 designed to make it easy for the reader-to turn 20 quickly to any area-of the brochure by the use of 21 descriptive tabs with labels such as, " Emergency and 22 You," " Evacuation Procedures," and " Protective Action 23 Zones and Maps." (PFC) 24 O. DOES THE BROCHURE CONTAIN INFORMATION1IN ADDITION TO 25 .THAT REQUIRED BY NRC REGULATIONS?

4

1 A. Yes. It contains information included as a result of -

2 comments by state and county agencies and by <

3 intervenors CESG and Palmetto Alliance to improve the ,

4 brochure as an informational tool. Each year, the 5 brochure will be revised to include new information, 6 to improve it based on comments from various groups 7 involved in emergency planning, and to correct the 8 brochure based on any changes in the concept or 9 extent of planning. An updated version of the

10. brochure is planned for September 30, 1984. The new 11 brochure will then be mailed to all EPZ residents.

12 (RMG) 13 O. WHAT ADDITIONS ARE CURRENTLY CONTEMPLATED FOR THE 14 REVISION OF THE BROCHURE?

15 A. Additional information related to shelters e 16 established for York and Gaston County. residents will 17 be included. One shelter, Mount Holly Jr. High, is 18 to be added to the list for Gaston. County residents.

19 In York County, Bethany ARP_ Church, Bethany 20 Elementary School, Sharon Elementary School, and_ i, 21 Hickory Grove School have been evaluated by state

'22 planners and found to be inadequate as long-term, 23 ' shelters, as no showers were available. They are to 124 Lbe replaced,by'other_ facilities outside_ York County 25 as shelters- for Zone 'A-0. " These' changes, along'with

e :.

1 evacuation routes and shelters, NRC and state / county 2 comments will be incorporated into an updated version 3 of the brochure and distributed as described 4 previously. (RMG) 5 O. ARE THESE REVISIONS NECESSARY TO COMPLY WITH NRC 6 REGULATIONS?

7 A. No. They are being added simply to improve the 8 brochure as an informational tool and to revise 9 shelter listings as previously noted. The current 10 brochure complies with the regulations. (RMG)

.11 O. INTERVENORS STATE THAT " A SIGNIFICANT BODY OF 12 SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE THAT INDICATES HEALTH EFFECTS AT 13 VERY LOW LOW LEVELS OF RADIATION IS NOT CITED." IS 14 THIS STATEMENT ACCURATE?

15 A. No. There is not a significant body of such 16 evidence. (MLB) In addition, even if such 17 information did exist, NRC regulations'do not require.

18 the inclusion of such information in the brochure.

19 (RMG) 20- O. INTERVENORS STATE THAT " PEOPLE WITH COMPELLING 21' REASONS TO STAY.(SUCH AS. FARMERS TENDING TO 22 LIVESTOCK) MAY NOT TAKE THE THREAT SERIOUSLY, 23 ESPECIALLY.AFTER BEING REPEATEDLY TOLD IN THE PAST 24- THAT RADIATION IS NOT PARTICULARLY HARMFUL, AND THAT.

525.. A SERIOUS ACCIDENT IS EXTREMELY.~UNLIKELY." DO YOU 12 6  : AGREE WITH THIS STATEMENT?

1 A. No. The brochure clearly states that radiation is 2 harmful and then gives instruction as to What to do 3 in the event of an emergency. Nor does the brochure 4 hide the possibility of an emergency at Catawba. On 5 page 4 of the brochure it states: "If there were a 6 major emergency at Catawba, people in areas near the 7 plant could be exposed to high levels of radiation.

8 Exposure to high levels of radiation causes health 9 effects." Instructions are then given on page 4 as 10 to What steps to take if radiation were released.

11 Additional information is given on page 9 of the 12 brochure. (PFC)

.13 O. INTERVENORS STATE THAT THE BROCHURE "DOES NOT 14 INDICATE THAT THERE IS A DANGER IN ACCUMULATED 15 RADIATION DOSAGE." IS.THIS ACCURATE?

16 A. No. The brochure addresses this issue by advising 17 the public on pages 4, 9, 10 and 11 to take shelter l

i j 18 or evacuate. When taking shelter, the public.is 19 further advised as to What additional steps to take 1

20 for protection. (PFC, MLB) i 21 O. INTERVENORS STATE THAT THE BROCHURE "DOES NOT _GIVE .

L 22 ADEOUATE INFORMATION ON PROTECTION FROM BETA AND

'23 GAMMA RAYS." IS THIS CORRECT?

24 A. No, the brochure adequately addresses these issues..

i.

25 To~ reduce radiation doses'resulting from external 26 exposures.to noble gases, you can decrease the time

I B 1 spent near (or in) the source, increase your distance 2 from the source,.and increase the attenuation of 3 these rays by passage of the rays through increased 4 thicknesses of material. The brochure adequately 5 addresses these dose reduction methods. The brochure 6 addresses decreasing the time spent near the source 7 (noble gases) by recommending evacuation, and, if 8 evacuation is not feasible, by minimizing the time 9 out of doors. The brochure addresses increasing your 10 distance from the source by recommending either 11 evacuation or, if evacuation is not feasible, you 12 remain indoors, close all windows and doors, and turn 13 off ventilation systems to keep the noble gases 14 outside. It also suggests m,oving to the basement, if 15 possible, to increase your distance from the source.

16 The brochure addresses increasing attenuation by.

17 recommending you remain indoors and move to the 18 basement, if possible. (MLB) 19 O. INTERVENORS STATE THAT THE BROCHURE "DOES NOT SPECIFY 20 HOW YOUNG VERY YOUNG IS." IS THIS CORRECT?-

21 A. No. Page 4 of the brochure has been revised to read

~

22 "(u)nborn babies and children up to six years old are.

23 more likely-to be harmed by radiation." (PFC) 24 Q. INTERVENORS STATE THAT THE BROCHURE DOES NOT CONTAIN

~25 A " CHART TO INDICATE-OVEREXPOSURE DURING NON-ROUTINE 26 RELEASES-OR ACCIDENTS TO PUT INTO PERSPECTIVE THE y . - , - , . .

T

  • i 1 POSSIBLE DOSE RECEIVED BEFORE OR DURING AN 2 EVA CU ATION . " WHY DOES THE BROCHURE NOT CONTAIN SUCH 3 A CHART?

4 A. First, the NRC regulations do not require such a 5* chart. (RMG) Second, the composition of such a chart 6 would be voluminous due to the number of scenarios 7 that would need to be covered. (MLB) Finally, the 8 brochure contains adequate information concerning 9 radiation levels on page 2. (PFC) 10 O. INTERVENORS STATE THAT THE BROCHURE "DOES NOT SPECIFY 11 INGESTION DANGERS FROM CONTAMINATED FOOD AND WATER."

12 IS THIS ACCURATE?

13 A. No. Page 9 of the revised brochure states that 14 "(w)ater, milk and food supplies will be monitored 15 for potential contamination. The emergency broadcast 16 stations will notify the public of any actions to be l '7 taken in regard to food and water." (PFC) 18 Q. INTERVENORS STATE THAT THE BROCHURE "DOES NOT SPECIFY 19 THE IMPORTAMCE OF GETTING TO RECEPTION AREAS FOR.

20 REGISTRATION FOR PURPOSES OF NOTIFICATION FOR 21 EVACU E ES' RE-ENTRY TO THEIR HOMES, NOR OF EMERGENCY 22- NOTIFICATION FOR EVACUEES, ACCOUNTING FOR FISCAL 23 ASPECTS OF EVACUATION AND FOR THE BASIS OF 24 ESTABLISHING LEGAL ~ CLAIMS WHICH MIGHT RESULT.FROM THE

  • s 1 EVACUATION, AS SPECIFIED IN ' CATAWBA SITE SPECIFIC 2 NUREG CRITERIA' p. B2, #3." IS THIS STATEMENT 3 ACCURATE?

4 A. No. The revised brochure does contain such 5 information. On page 10 of the brochure, the public 6 is advised to "(d) rive to your shelter and register."

7 The public is further advised on page 10 that 8 "(r)egistering at the shelter will enable officials 9 to contact you to tell you when you can go back home" 10 and that they "can also get information there while 11 away from home." With regard to fiscal aspects and 12 legal claims, the public is advised on page 10 that 13 "(r)epresentatives of organizations including Red 14 Cross, Salvation Army and insurance companies" would '

15 be at shelters to provide services needed by the 16 public. (PFC) This information was added from an 17 earlier version to address concerns raised by the 18 intervenors even though NRC regulations do not

'19 require it. NRC and FEMA guidelines focus on the 20 area of safety and not on subsequent legal aspects 21 following a possible event. (RMG) 22 Q. INTERVENORS STATE THAT CITIZENS ARE TOLD IN THE 23 BROCHURE THAT "THEY MA*Z GO DIRECTLY TO ' STAY WITH 24- FRIENDS OR RELATIVES LIVING'AT LEAST 15 MILES FROM 25 THE PLANT.'" IS THIS AN ACCURATE STATEMENT?

I

1 A. No. Page 10 of the brochure states " Drive to your 2 shelter and register. You may stay at the shelter.

3 or after you register at the shelter, you may choose 4 to stay with friends or relatives living'at least 15 5 miles from the plant." This language clearly 6 indicates that affected persons should go to the 7 shelter first. (PFC) 8 Q. INTERVENORS STATE THAT THE BROCHURE DOES NOT SAY THAT 9 "THE RECEPTICH AREAS EXIST TO PROVIDE DECONTAMINATION 10 OF PEOPLE AND VEHICLES." IS THIS CORRECT?

11 A. No. There are no longer any reception areas; rather, 12 evacuees will be instructed to go directly to 13 designated shelters. (RMG). Further, on page 9 of the 14 brochure it states: " Shelters would have facilities 15 for decontamination of evacuees and their vehicles 16 and ~ their personal items." It is there that such 17 decontamination activities take place. This language 18 was added to the current version of the brochure.

19 (PFC) 20 Q. INTERVENORS ASSERT THAT THE BROCHURE STATES THAT "IN AN EMERGENCY AT CATAWBA, CITIZENS 'WOULD BE GIVEN 21 22 PLENTY'OF TIME'TO TAKE NECESSARY ACTION.'"

23 INTERVENORS STATE'FURTHER THAT THE BROCHURE " FALSELY

.24 REAS SURES" RESIDENTS BY INCLUDING THIS STATEMENT.

25 DOES THE BROCHURE INCLUDE THIS STATEMENT?

e .

1 A. No. This statement was deleted from an earlier draft 2 and is not contained in the current brochure. Also, 3 no effort is made to " falsely reassure" residents.

4 Information in the brochure is directed at advising 5 the public to take necessary action in an emergency.

6 (PFC) 7 Q. INTERVENORS STATE THAT THE BROCHURE " ASSUMES ALL 8 RECIPIENTS CAN READ, AND AT A CERTAIN LEVEL OF 9 COMPREHENSION." INTERVENORS STATE FURTHER THAT "AS A 10 PRIMARY SOURCE OF INFORMATION IT IS IMPERATIVE THAT 11 ALL HAVE ACCESS TO AND UNDERSTANDING OF THE EMERGENCY 12 PROCEDURES TO BE TAKEN." PLEASE COMMENT ON THESE 13 STATEMENTS.

14 A. First, the. brochure was designed and written so that 15 the general-public could understand the emergency 16 procedures to be taken. Second, every effort was 17 made to ensure that the brochure was written in a 18 form and at a reading level._that could be understood 19 by a broad segment of the public for whom it is 20- intended. (PFC) 21 Q. WHAT STEPS WERE TAKEN TO ENSURE READABILITY OF THE

-22 BROCHURE BY THE PUBLIC?

23 A. The initial draft was submitted to a reading 24 specialist 'at' Winthrop College for an assessment of 25 the reading-level. The initial draf t was determined 26 to be at approximately a college level. . Based on.the

1 directions provided by the reading specialist, the 2 copy was changed in an effort to lower the reading 3 level. (PFC, SVD) 4 Q. PLEASE DESCRIBE MORE FULLY WHAT CHANGES WERE 5 INCORPORATED IN THE FINAL VERSION OF THE 1984 EDITION

. 6 OF THE BROCHURE TO ENSURE ITS READABILITY BY THE 7 PUBLIC.

8 A. Duke was advised by the reading specialist that parts 9 of the copy were verbose and too complex.

10 The material was rewritten to be approximately 11 4-6 sentences in length per one hundred words and to 12 have an average of 140-160 syllables per one hundred 13 words.

14 Technical information in areas such as "How a 15 nuclear plant works," and "About Radiation," was 16 rewritten to make the information more 17 understandable. (PFC) 18 Q. FOR WHAT LEVEL OF READER IS THE 1984 EDITION OF THE 19 BROCHURE SUITABLE?

20 A. The 1984 edition of the brochure is suitable for 21 _ readers of many levels. By applying the Fry 22 Readability Formula to assess the brochure, variable 23 reading levels are.obtained. Specifically,, narrative 24 portions'(i.e., those outlining plant operation and

2 5. giving information concerning radiation on pages 2 26 and 4) are written on an eleventh grade level.

e .

1 Instructional sequences (i.e., step-by-step 2 evacuation procedures on pages 9, 10 and 11) are 3 written on a seventh grade reading level and are most 4 appropriate for the average reader. (SVD) 5 Q. WHAT OTHER STEPS ARE SUGGESTED FOR COMMUNICATING 6 INFORMATION IN THE BROCHURE TO RESIDENTS IN THE AREA 7 WHO CANNOT READ OR MAY NOT HAVE IMMEDIATE ACCESS TO A 8 BROCHURE?

9 A. Page 1 of the brochure states: "If you know someone 10 who is blind or who does not read well, read this 11 information to them. Talk to them about what to do 12 in an emergency." (FFC) In addition, state and local 13 officials have been asked to include the six steps 14 shown on page 9 in their EBS broadcast. (RMG) 15 Q. INTERVENORS STATE THAT "(T)HERE IS NO INFORMATION 16 CONCERNING THE EXISTENCE OF A ' PLUME EXPOSURE 17 PATHWAY' WHICH WOULD INFLUENCE A CITIZEN'S CHOICE OF 18 ESCAPE ROUTE" AND THAT "IT IS IMPORTANT FO.. CITIZENS 19 TO BE AWARE OF THIS PHENOMENON BEFOREHAND." WHY IS

, 20 THIS INFORMATION NOT INCLUDED IN THE BROCHURE?

21 A. First, the NRC regulations do not require that such 22 information be included in the brochure. Second, 23 there is concern that public confusion may arise if 24 an attempt is made to provide general information 25 concerning plume pathways, and that the public may u -

1 then not follow the recommended actions in the EBS 2 messages which are based on the specific conditions 3 at the time of the emergency. (RMG) 4 Q. WHAT INFORMATION IS INCLUDED IN THE BROCHURE WITH 5 REGARD TO SHELTERING 7 6 A. Two types of information are included in the brochure 7 with regard to sheltering. First, on page 9 of the 8 brochure, the readers are directed to take the 9 following six steps if they are told to stay indoors 10 during an emergency:

11 "1. Stay indoors until you are told it is safe to go 12 out.

13 2. Close all windows and doors. Turn off fans, air

, 14 conditioners and forced-air heatino units.

15 3. Move to a basement if possible.

16 4. Place a damp cloth over your nose and mouth.

17 5. Listen to your local radio or television station 18 for more instructions.

19 6. Water, milk and food supplies will be monitored 20 for potential contamination. The emergency 21 broadcast stations will notify the public of any 22 actions to be taken in regard to food and 23 water."

1 Second, if ordered to evacuate, readers are told on 2 page 10 as follows: "Get into your car or other 3 vehicle. Close all windows and vents. Drive to your 4 shelter and register." (PFC) 5 Q. WHAT IS THE BASIS FOR INCLUDING THESE 6 STEPS IN THE 6 BROCHURE 7 7 A. EPA-520/1-75-001, " Manual of Frotective Action Guides 8 and Protective Actions for Nuclear Incidents,"

9 Environmental Protection Agency, 1975 (and subsequent 10 revisions and editions) recommends actions such as 11 staying in the basement, closing windows and doors, 12 turning off ventilation systems which draw in inside 13 air, and breathing through a damp cloth. The other 14 points are practical comments believed by Duke Power 15 Company to provide more effective sheltering. (RMG) 16 Q. WHAT OTHER GTEPS HAS' DUKE TAKEN TO ENSURE PUBLICATION 17 OF SHELTERING INFORMATION?

18 A. In a letter dated January 23, 1984, to each State 19 Director, Duke has requested that the six items on 20 page 9 of the brochure be made a part of their pre-21 established message format for sheltering. It is my 22 understanding that each state will include this 23 informa tion in pre-established messages. (RMG) l L 24 Q. DOES THE SHELTERING INFORMATION MEET NRC CRITERIA?

25 A. Yes. (RMG)

D I 18 -

1 O. ARE YOU SATISFIED THAT THE REVISED BROCHURE FOR 2 DISTRIBUTION TO THE PUBLIC ADEQUATELY ADDRESSES THE 3 MATTERS OF PREPARATIONS TO BE TAKEN BY THE PUBLIC "TO 4 ACHIEVE EFFECTIVE SHELTERING" AND "THE ACTIONS THAT 5 PEOPLE SHOULD TAKE WHEN ADVISED TO SEEK SHELTER?"

6 A. Yes, the instructions provided in the brochure are 7 adequate for the public to achieve effective 8 sheltering. (MLB) 9 Q. BRIEFLY EXPLAIN YOUR RESPONSE.

10 A. There are two factors which are important when using 11 sheltering as a protective measure to reduce 12 potential doses. First, the shelter should provide 13 some attenuation of radiation emitted from 14 contamination outside the shelter. This attenuation 15 effect is called shielding. The second factor would 16 be the need to minimize the amount of contamination 17 leaking into the shelter. This is minimization of 18 infiltration. The brochure adequately addresses both 19 factors. With regard to-shielding, the brochure 20 states on page 9: " Stay indoors until you are told it l

21 is safe to go outside." It further states:

" Move to 22 a basement if possible." These instructions describe 23 the methods that should. be used to achieve shielding 24 from the radiation originating from contamination 1

25 outside the shelter.

93

3 3 As a method to reduce infiltration, the brochure  :

2 advises on page 9 as follows: "Close all windows and f -3 doors. Turn off fans, air conditioners and forced-4 air heating units." These instructions are measures

5 that would effectively reduce infiltration of i 6 contaminated air.  !

7 The measures listed on page 9 of the brochure 8 are general practices that would be effective for any

~

9 situation where sheltering is necessary. The 10 brochure also states on page 9: " Listen to your local 11 radio or television station for more instructions."

12 This addresses the need for additional instruction 13 which would not be appropriate in all cases. ,

14 In' addition to.the general practices of  ;

15 shielding, reduction of. infiltration and listening 16 for additional information, instructions 4'and 6 on-

'17 page 9 are measures that would be recommended if 18 particulates are released. These instructions would 150 -be'useful in reducing inhalation and ingestion of 20 contaminates if they are present..(MLB) 21 Q. WHAT READING LEVEL IS THE INFORMATION ON SHELTERING 7 22 A. The instructional information on pages 9 and 10 is on i 23 the 7th. grade level. (SVD) .

l 1 Q. BY WAY OF BACKGROUND, PLEASE DESCRIBE THE OVERALL 2 OBLIGATION OF THE STATE OF NORTH CAROLINA AS IT 3 RELATES TO EMERGENCY PLANNING FOR A POSSIBLE 4 RADIOLOGICAL EMERGENCY AT THE CATAWBA NUCLEAR 5 STATION.

6 A. The three components of the North Carolina obligation 7 to respond to a possible radiological emergency at -

8 Catawba are: (1) planning, (2) preparedness, and (3) 9 recoyery and response. The State obligation to 10 assure the adequacy of these components is for the 11 protection of life and property for the citizens of 12 North Carolina. (JTP) 13 O. HAS THE STATE OF NORTH CAROLINA DEVELOPED A PLAN TO 14 COPE WITH A NUCLEAR-RELATED EMERGENCY AT CATAWBA?

15 A. Yes, the North Carolina Emergency Response Plan.

18 THE PLAN?

19 A. Yes. (JTP) 20 O. WOULD YOU BRIEFLY DESCRIBE THE PLAN?

21 A. The plan is a three-part document which consists of 22 State procedures, Mecklenburg County procedures, and 23 Gaston County procedures. The plan provides the 24 overall framework for State and local response to a 25 'possible radiological emergency at Catawba. The 26 counties are the initial responders until"such time

4_

1 as the governor declares a state of emergency or b 2 disaster. Direction and control of recovery and f

3 response are in the hands of the State once the State i

4 has set up its SERT with support thereaf ter provided j 5 by the counties involved. (JTP) l 6 Q. DESCRIBE BRIEFLY YOUR ROLE IN OVERSEEING THE I

15 MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC IN THE AREA SURROUNDING THE 16 NUCLEAR POWER PLANT?

l 17 A. Yes. (JTP) i 18 Q. WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF PROVIDING SUCH INFORMATION?

19 A. To provide the public with information on the basic 20 dangers of radiation, to provide adequate information 21 on how to implement protective actions for individual  :

22' protection in case of a nuclear accident, and/or to ,

23 evacuate safely-the. threatened' area..(JTP) 24 Q. WHAT GROUPS SHOULD RECEIVE SUCH INFORMATIOh?

4 1 A. The state plan provides for information of an 2 educational nature; however, this agency has not been 3 able fully to implement this program. We are

4 currently in the process of hiring a full-time public

! 5 information officer. Once this individual is on 6 board there should be a greater flow of information.

7 The state presently publishes a Disaster Brochure on 8 common threats, i.e., hurricanes, tornadoes, floods, 9 nuclear power plant accidents, etc. (JTP) 10 Q. IN YOUR JUDGMENT, IS THAT INFORMATION ADEQUATE?

11 A. Yes, considering the limited public demand for this 12 type of information and our limited time available to 13 produce or provide any larger contribution. However, 14 with the addition of the public information officer, s 15 we hope to make more information available to the l 16 public by all means of-communications. (JTP) 17 O. INTERVENORS STATE' THAT "ALTHOUGH THE NORTH CAROLINA '

18 STATE PLAN CALLS FOR EMERGENCY INFORMATION TO BE 19 DISTRIBUTED AS DETAILED IN PART 1, SECTION IV, 2, 3,

{

l 20 and'4, NO'SUCH MATERIAL OTHER THAN APPLICANTS' 21- BROCHURE HAS BEEN MADE AVAILABLE." DO YOU AGREE WITH 22 THIS STATEMENT?

23 A. Yes,' insofar as'it goes. However, one of the options

(

24 of the North Carolina emergency. plan is that the 25 State may' opt to. rely on Duke's Emergency' Plan I

'I t

F e .

1 brochure rather than to distribute one of its own.

2 The State of North Carolina has elected to adopt that 3 option. (JTP) 4 O. PLEASE DESCRIBE YOUR ROLE IN THE PREPARATION OF 5 DUKE'S EMERGENCY PLAN BROCHURE.

6 A. I reviewed early drafts of the brochure and suggested 7 changes to be incorporated in the current 1984 8 edition. I then reviewed the current 1984 edition.

9 (JTP) 10 O. DO YOU FIND THE REVISED BROCHURE ACCEPTABLE FOR THE 11 PURPOSE OF ADVISING THE PUBLIC OF AN EMERGENCY AT 12 CATAWBA 7 13 A. Yes. (JTP) 14 O. HAVE YOU ANY ADDITIONAL SUGGESTIONS THAT YOU WOULD 15 INCORPORATE IN THE NEXT VERSION OF THE BROCHURE?

16 A. Yes. The necessity for going directly to shelters is 17 not adequately stressed under paragraph number 5 18 entitled, "If you are ordered to evacuate." Also, 19 the availability of radiological monitoring and 20 decontamination is not covered in this important 21 paragraph. The addition of this information in 22 paragraph 5 would_ strengthen the need for going 23 directly to a shelter. (JTP) 24 It is recognized that the brochure does state 25 that facilities for decontamination of evacuees are 26 available. This information, however, is located

1 later on in the brochure and not at the critical 2 place as mentioned above. The public must be 3 convinced that they should report to the shelters to 1

4 be registered and monitored for radiological 5 contamination and their emergency address recorded 6 for regrouping fctilies. The possibility of a 7 contaminated individual exposing other family members 8 should be stressed. We believe these changes should 9 be included in the next edition of the emergency pl'an 10 brochure. (JTP)

. 11 Q.. DO YOU FEEL THAT THE FAILURE TO INCLUDE THIS 12 INFORMATION IN THE CURRENT EDITION OF THE BROCHURE 13' AFFECTS THE ADEQUACY OF THE CURRENT BROCHURE?

14 A. No. .The State oof North Carolina is satisfied that 15 the 1984 edition of the brochure in its current form 16 is adequate to advise the public. (JTP) 17 .Q. ARE YOU SATISFIED THAT DUKE'S REVISED BROCHURE FOR 18- DISTRIBUTION TO THE PUBLIC ADEQUATELY ADDRESSES THE 19 MATTERS'OF PREPARATION'TO BE_TAKEN BY THE PUBLIC "TO 20 ACHIEVE EFFECTIVE SHELTERING" AND'"THE ACTIONS THAT 21 PEOPLE SHOULD TAKE WHEN ADVISED TO SEEK SHELTER"?

22 A. Yes. The six sheltering steps described in the Duke 23 Power Brochure are similar to those advanced by 24 knowledgeable Emergency Management of ficials. State 25 emergency planning officials have been so_ trained.

i

1 Sheltering in this case refers to people staying 2 inside their own homes rather than going to a 3 " shelter" outside the EPZ. (JTP) 4 Q. DUKE HAS STATED IN ITS TESTIMONY THAT IT HAS 5 REQUESTED THAT THE STATE INCLUDE AS PART OF ITS EBS

12 A. I am a Chief Area Coordinator of the Emergency 13 Preparedness Division for the State of South 14 Carolina. I have jurisdiction over twenty-three of 15 the State's forty-six counties for emergency response 16 planning. These counties include those containing 17 and adjoining the Catawba Nuclear Station. I am 18 responsible for initiation, distribution, and 19 maintenanceoof-state plans that pertain to that area, 20 and for furnishing support and development of county 21 emergency response plans as a liaison for county 22 emergency preparedness directors in those areas. (PL) 23 Q. HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN-IN THAT POSITION, MR.

24 LUNSFORD?

.e t

  • i 1 A. There was a title change about one year ago. Prior 2 to that I was Chief of the Plans Section in the 3 Emergency Preparedness Division. Prior to that, 4 three and one-half years ago, I joined the Emergency 5 Preparedness Division and worked with the 6 coordinator. I had that position for a couple of 7 years. Then I moved in as the Chief of Plans 8 Section. My resume is attached to this testimony.

9 (PL) 10 0 DOES THE STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA HAVE A SPECIFIC 11 EMERGENCY PLAN TO COPE WITH A RADIOLOGICAL EMERGENCY 12 AT CATAWBA?

13 A. Yes. It is the Catawba Site Specific Plan. (PL) 14 Q. WOULD YOU BRIEFLY DESCRIBE THE CONTENT OF THE SITE 11 5 SPECIFIC PLAN AND HOW IT OPERATES?

16 A. The Emergency Plans in South Carolina for Catawba 17 include SCORERP (South Carolina Operational 18 Radiological Emergency Response Plan), STRERP (State 19 of South Carolina Technical Radiological Emergency 20 Respon,se' Plan), Part IV of SCORERP (Catawba Site 21 Specific Plan), and the York County Emergency 22 Operations Plan. SCORERP and STRERP are generic to 23 the State. (WM) 24 SCORERP was developed by the South Carolina 25 Emergency Preparedness Division in cooperation with 26 other State agencies to provide for the guidance,

e 4

1 coordination, and utilization of State and other  ;

2 2 resources in support of affected local' governments' 3 off-site operations during an emergency resulting 4 from a radiological incident at a fixed nuclear 5 facility in the State of South Carolina or contiguous 6 states. (WM) 7 STRERP was developed by the Bureau of 8 Radiological Health in the South Carolina Department 9 of Health and Environmental Control to provide for 10 the guidance, coordination, and utilization of the 11 technical radiological emergency response and 12 assistance from the State of South Carolina to 13 affected local governments during an emergency 14 resulting from a radiological emergency in South 15 Carolina or contiguous states. This plan is in 16 accordance with SCORERP and is a supporting document.

i 17 (WM) 18 I and others in'this office were involved in 19 developing the Site-Specific Plan and assisted in 20 developing the York County Plan. To develop the 21 Catawba Site-Specific Plan, we used the other site 22 specifics as a guide and took site specific 23 information'for Catawba such as differences in alert 24 -andl notification and sheltering. The'other plans 25 upon which Catawba's were developed were different

\

. , . . ~ _. . . _ , _ _ .

f .1 1 with respect to the aspect of using shelters instead 2 of a reception center concept. We took the site-3 specific information and went from there. (WM) 4 The Site - Soacific Plan is broken down into a 5 general purpose statement, goes.into local situations 6 and assumptions, and then goes into the concept of 7 operations, which is broken down then into emergency 8 response as far as alert and. notification, activation 9 of the SEOC and FEOC, radiological monitoring, 10 evacuation,-transportation, communication, and 11 training. Emergency responso as to direction and 12 control is then described (rela ting to FEOC 13 operations), and last sre the figures, including maps 14 and organizational charts.'(WM) 15 Q. IS THERE A PLANNING BASIS FOR THIS' DOCUMENT 7 16 A. Yes there is. It is NUREG-0654,-Rev.~1. (PL) 17 Q.

1 on alert, the county government goes on alert and of l 2 course, the plan is then implemented. There are t

-3 certain actions that have to be taken by the

. 4 facility, by the State, and by the local government,.

5_ These actions are spelled out in the emergency action 6 levels that are contained in the county plan and the 7 State plan. See York County Plan Annex Q and Table 4

8 IV of SCORERP. The particular emergency action level

!' 9 that we are in determines whether it requires the l ~10 deployment of State and local forces. (PL) 11 The emergency response will be as set forth in 1

12 the South Carolina plan and the county plans. The 13 agencies and individuals that are listed in those 14 plans have been made aware that they are part of the 4

15 plan. Certain state agencies have certain 16 responsibilities in the plan, as do the county 17 organizations and government agencies. The level of 18 emergency dictates the necessary actions to be taken.

19 (PL) 20 -Q. DOES THIS SITE-SPECIFIC PLAN DEAL WITH THE ACTIVITIES 21 OF.THE SOUTH CAROLINA EMERGENCY RESPONSE ORGANIZATION 22 RATHER THAN DEALING WITH THE RESPONSE OF YORK COUNTY?

t 1 A. I reviewed all of the concepts and furnished some of 2 them. I reviewed the plans that were being 3 developed, managed.the effort and assigned additional 4 people to the task. I read the plans in their draft 5 stages, and met with planners on almost a daily 6 basis. If I had comments, I would share those with 7 the planners and they would be factored into the 8 plan. Most of my comments were made in writing on 9 the draft plan itself. (PL) 10 Q. PLEASE DESCRIBE YOUR EMERGENCY PLANNING BACKGROUND, 11 MR. LUNSFORD.

12 A. I have a, former career in the United States Army as 13 an officer in the Infantry, as is described on my 14 attached resume. I have been with the South Carolina 15 Emergency Preparedness Division for three and one-16 half years. During those three and ono-half years-17 here, I have been directly' involved with emergency ,

18 planning. (PL) 19 Q. HAVE YOU BEEN INVOLVED IN'ANY EMERGENCIES WHERE 20 NOTIFICATION HAS BEEN GIVEN TO THE PUBLIC?

8 A. Not to my knowledge. (PL, WM) 9 Q. HAVE YOU ASSURED YOURSELF THAT THESE RESPONSE 10 AGENCIES AND ORGANIZATIONS ARE AWARE OF THEIR 11 OBLIGATIONS AND REPONSIBILITIES?

12 A. Yes. The agencies that have'a' role to perform in the 13 plan were brought in on the_ process of drafting the 14 plan. They were given a copy in draft form as we 15 were developing it and were asked to comment, or make 16 additions or deletions and change their roles if they 7

17 weren't appropriate. The plan reflects a l 18 responsibility that is satisfactory to each one of 19 the responding agencies or organizations. When we 20 revise the plan periodically we submit copies to-each i

21 state agency that performs a role and they are asked 22 to review it before it's published..(PL, WM) 23 -Q. HAVE THE INDIVIDUALS.IN EACH STATE AGENCY OR 24 ORGANIZATION THAT WOULD BE CALLED UPON; BEEN 25: INSTRUCTED IN THEIR RESPONSE ACTIONS?

l 1 A. To the best of my knowledge, they have. We've 2 performed exercises with members of those agencies 3 and in each case, we have had no major discrepancies 4 found in any exercise that I am aware of. (PL, WM) 5 Q. 'HOW MANY NUCLEAR-RELATED EXERCISES HAS THE STATE OF 6 SOUTH CAROLINA BEEN INVOLVED IN?

7 A. The State has probably been involved in six or eight 8 such exercises. We have gone through each one of the 9 nuclear stations at least once and in the case of the 10 H.B. Robinson plant, twice. These were major 11 exercises, with full participation by all agencies 12 including the counties and the State. These 13 exercises indicate that the response agencies and 14 organizations in South Carolina have indeed performed 15 their function. (PL, WM) 16 Q. .ARE YOU FAMILIAR WITH THE CONTENTIONS THAT HAVE BEEN-17 FILED IN THIS PROCEEDING BY PALMETTO ALLIANCE AND THE 18 CAROLINA ENVIRONMENTAL STUDY GROUP?

7 A. No. I believe the brochure generally is a good 8 brochure and has considerable factual information.

9 We have notified Duke Power of a few changes that 10 need to be made. But generally the brochure is an 11 adequate document. (PL, WM) 12 Q. WHERE IN THE SOUTH CAROLINA PLAN IS PUBLIC

  • 13 INFORMATION ADDRESSED?

14 A. Annex C of SCORERP and Annex D of the York County 15 Emergency Operations Plan. (WM) 16 Q. ARE YOU FAMILIAR WITH THIS TYPE OF BROCHURE 7 17 A. Yes. (bL, WM) 18 Q. HAVE YOU REVIEWED THE BROCHURE TO ASSURE YOURSELF

.19 THAT IT IS AN ADEQUATE NOTIFICATION TOOL 7 20 A. Yes I have. (PL, WM) 21 Q. HAVE YOU REVIEWED THE REVISED BROCHURE?

22 A. Yes I have. It is my view that the brochure is 23 satisfactory. I agree that changes do have to made 24 and they will have to be made from time to-time in 25 the future because the plan itself changes from_ time 26 to time. (PL, WM)

1 There are some things that we have addressed to 2 Duke Power which we would like to see changed and 3 they have agreed to do so. Based on that agreement, 4 I am satisified that this brochure is an adequate 5 tool. (PL, WM) 6 Q. WHAT CHANGES NEED TO BE MADE TO THE REVISED 1984 7 EDITION OF THE CATAWBA BROCHURE 7 8 A. As far as the map is concerned, on the large scale 9 map where the primary shelters are designated, each 10 host county's boundary should be shown (Chester, 11 Cherokee, Union, Lancaster, and Fairfield). As far 12 as the verbage between the two maps, the communities 13 within each zone should be listed and the " county" 14 designation removed. (WM) 15 Q. WHAT ABOUT THE SHELTERS FOR YORK COUNTY RESIDENTS OF 16 ZONE A-O?

17 A. Those are. going to have to be changed to go into the 18 Blacksburg area of Cherokee _ County. (WM) 19 Q. ARE ANY OTHER CHANGES NECESSARY?

j 20 A. Personally, I would like to see in the next revision 21 to the brochure a card inserted asking certain 22 information about whether'the recipient was blind, 23 hearing impaired, or transportation dependent. That 24 way we _ as planners have some type of grasp on how 25 many people are in each category. That list would be 26 updated annually with the brochure revision. (WM)

e 6 i

1 Q. ARE THERE ANY OTHER AREAS OF THE BROCHURE THAT YOU 2 WOULD LIKE TO SEE CHANGED?

3 A. In the rumor control portion of the brochure the 4 numbers listed there now are for the station itself.

5 Additional numbers could be put in there from the 6 media center to handle a large influx of calls for 7 rumor control. (WM) 8 Q. HAS DUKE MADE IT UNDERSTOOD THAT THEY WOULD 9 INCORPORATE CHANGES OF THAT SORT IN THE NEXT 10 BROCHURE?

11 A. Yes they have. (WM) 12 Q. DO YOU HAVE AN IDEA OF WHEN THE NEXT BROCHURE MAY BE

-13 COMING OUT?

14' A. In September of this year to the best of my 15 'nowledge. (WM) 16 Q. IS IT A GOAL OF STATE PLANNING FOR RADIOLOGICAL

, s 17- EMERGENCIES INVOLVING NUCLEAR POWER PLANTS THAT 18 ADVANCE INFORMATION BE PROVIDED TO MEMBERS OF THE 19 PUBLIC IN THAT AREA SURROUNDING THE NUCLEAR POWER 20 PLANT?

'~

21 A. Yes. (PL, WM) 22- Q. WHAT IS THE PURPOSE IN PROVIDING SUCH INFORMATION?

1 A. The purpose is to protect the public and the public's 2 property and to provide information as to what the i l

3 public should do to protect itself concerning actions  !

4 to be taken in case there is an incident at the 5 nuclear station. (PL, HM) 6 Q. WHO SHOULD RECEIVE SUCH INFORMATION?

7 A. Everyone residing within the ten-mile emergency 8 planning zone plus information should be made 9' available to transients. (PL, WM) 10 Q. WHAT INFORMATION HAS THE STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA 11 ITSELF DISTRIBUTED?

12 A. The State has put out a brochure of its own

13. containing information on actions that should be 14 taken in the fifty-mile ingestion pathway. That was 15 developed by the Clemson University Coooperative and 16 Extension Service and the' State Emergency 17 Preparedness Division. (PL, WM)
18 Q. HOW IS THAT INFORMATION DISSEMINATED?

l 19 A. HWe did a census on the number of . farmers in the state 20 and issued an appropriate number of brochures to each e

21 -county _ extension agent for further delivery-to 22 farmers in each county.. (PL, WM)

1 A. The Emergency . Preparedness Director and other staf f 2 members in each county are generally aware of who 3 those people are. In all of our preparations and

4. planning and during exercises, one of the facets that 4

5 we cover is notifying people who are not readily 6 accessible to routine notification.

-l Q. DOES THE STATE PLAN PROVIDE ADEQUATE INFORMATION ON 2 ACTIONS MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC SHOULD TAKE IF AND WHEN 3 THEY ARE ADVISED TO TAKE SHELTER?

4 A. Yes. (SF) 5 Q. PLEASE EXPLAIN.

6 A. State plans are measured against the requirements of 7 " Criteria for Preparation and Evaluation of _

8 Radiological Emergency Response Plans and 9 Preparedness in Support of Nuclear Power Plants."

10 U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Federal Emergency 11 Management Agency- NUREG-0654,.Rev. 1, 1980.-

12 Planning Evaluation Criteria J.9 addresses evacuation 13 and sheltering as protective actions:

14 Each State . . . shall establish a capacity for 15 implementing protective measures based upon l'6 protective action guides and other criteria.

17 This shall be consistent with the

! 18 recommendations of- EPA regarding exposure from 19 passage of radioactive airborne plumes, -(EPA-R20 -520/1-75-001) . . . [' Manual of Protective 21 Action ~ Guides and Protective Actions for Nuclear l

22 Incidents,' Environmental Protection Agency, 23 1975.(and subsequent. revisions and additions)]-

24 The South Carolina emergency. response plans were 25 developed according to the-guidance'provided in this

( ;26: latter document. Appendix.B, " Planner's Evaluation 27 Guide-for Evacuation and-Shelter," addresses the -

28 likely hazards which wouldlbe experienced during;an H29 airborne release of radioactive materialLfrom a. fixed-l- 3 0 ' nuclear facility. It' summarizes the.various pathways_

i-l'

1 by which the public could be exposed and evaluates 2 the available. protective actions which could be used 1

3 to mitigate the consequences. .The Appendix 4 recognizes that evacuation before exposure is the 5 recommendation of choice (B-4, B-20) but that this 6 may not always be possible. Furthermore, untimely 7 evacuation'may in some instances result in greater

'8 exposure than one would receive while remaining in 9 available shelter until conditions were more 10 favorable. (B-4) (SF) 11 The appendix summarizes the factors which 12 determine the amount of protection afforded by 13 various types of typical structures. It points out 14 that sheltering effectiveness is usually increased by 15 turning off ventilation systems to reduce 16 infiltration of outside air, by closing cracks and 17 penetrations, and by simple filtration of inhaled l 18 air. B-21. It also points out that, all else being 19 equal, larger buildings, buildings with more massive 20 construction, and buildings with basements provide 21 more protection-than smaller, lighter buildings 22 without basements. B-22. On the.other hand, it i

23 advises against planning to use existing Civil 24 Defense' shelters or_ centrally located structures

26 -

1 where to do so would require members of the public to 2 leave whatever structure they were in at the time to 3 seek different shelter. B-7 (SF) 4 The Appendix provides criteria for determining 5 when sheltering followed by evacuation is the most 6 effective means of reducing exposure. B-16 et sec.

1 7 (SF) 8 The State plans call for evacuation as a 9 precaution to avoid any exposure whenever possible.

10 However, in those situations where evacuation cannot 11 be completed before exposur,e begins, the plans 12 provide for a recommendation of sheltering in place 13 to be made. Sample press releases included in 14 SCORERP include instructions about-remaining indoors,'

.15 closing. doors and windows, and turning off 16- ventilation systems which draw . in outside air. These.

17 are the measures recommended in the EPA Manual.

18 .Likewise,- the public information brochure (1984 19 revision, page 9) contains similar information.-

20 These' recommendations would be1 reiterated.by public 21: announcement whenever sheltering in placeLis 22- recommendedr additional information 'about - the - time 23

sheltering should begin and end would be provided as 24 necessary. Whenever possible,_ populations at risk-25- would be-evacuated before exposure'begins. (SF)

14 Q. PLEASE DESCRIBE BRIEFLY YOUR ROLE IN OVERSEEING 15 THE READINESS OF THE VARIOUS COUNTY DEPARTMENTS AND 16 AGENCIES THAT ARE INVOLVED IN RADIOLOGICAL EMERGENCY l 17 RESPONSE IN MECKLENBURG COUNTY.

18 A. First of all, readiness involves Mecklenburg County 19 and the City of Charlotte. My office utilizes the 20 resources of all the departments of city and county 21 government. It is the responsibility of emergency 22 management to coordinate those activities among all.

23 those departments. My office's role in overseeing 24 ~ readiness involves training, conducting exercises, 25 'and maintaining the emergency' plans.

26 Q.. AND YOU DO THAT?

a e 1 A. Yes. Myself and Luther Fincher, who is now the 2 acting director in the Emergency Management Office, 3 would coordinate those activities to insure that in 4 an EOC environment, everybody works from the same 5 plans; that roles and responsibilities are 6 identified, that resources are identified and that 7 problems are mitigated with the best available 8 resource Whether it be fire, police, medical or some 9 other organization. We coordinate, we get input from 10 these departments to insure that they are capable of 11 doing what it is that they have agreed to do in the 12 planning documents so that there are no surprises at 13 the time that the request is made up.enough to carry 14 on a specific function.

15 O. WOULD YOU ELABORATE ON THE RESOURCES THAT ARE 16 AVAILABLE TO IMPLEMENT THE CITY OF CHARLOTTE-17 MECKLENBURG PLAN?

18 A. The planning document - the basic planning document -

19 ' Which is.Part III of_the North Carolina Emergency, 20 Response Plan specifically states in those nine 21 categories that we listed under the table of contents 22 Mecklenburg County. I think it should be brought out 23 that the resources of the City of ' Charlotte which 24 includes emergency response organizations and support

-25 organizations are also available to us, us being

- s 1 Mecklenburg County and the overall operation so that 2 we can respond with total resource commitment from 3 both city and county and not just from one.

4 Q. DOES THAT REPRESENT A SUBSTANTIAL AUGMENTATION OF THE 5 RESOURCES THAT WOULD BE AVAILABLE IF WE WERE SPEAKING 6 STRICTLY OF MECKLENBURG AS A COUNTY?

7 A. Yes. An example would be there are approximately 120 8 law enforcement people in county government, while 9 there are probably about five to six hundred city 10 policemen. The paid fire department of the county 11 represents about five people, while the paid city 12 fire department represents about six hundred. So as 13 you can-see by those numbers we are looking at a 14 substantial amount of resources that'would be 15 available to us.

16 EPC 1 Testimony 17 Q. DOES YOUR EMEREGENCY PLAN PROVIDE INFORMATION WHICH l

l 18 ADDRESSES THIS CONTENTION?

19 A. Yes. - Fart 3, Section IV.D. and IV.E to the N.C. State 20 Plan, and Annex D to that Plan.

21 Q. EMERGENCY' PLANNING' CONTENTION 1 ALLEGES THAT THE 22 PUBLIC INFORMATION THAT.IS AVAILABLE TO-THE PEOPLE IN 23 THE CATAWBA EPZ IS NOT ADEQUATE.- HAS CHARLOTTE- .

10 Q. , HAVE YOU EVER BEEN CALLED UPON TO SPEAK BEFORE ANY 11 ORGANIZATIONS OR GROUPS IN THE COUNTY TO EXPLAIN THE 12 CITY / COUNTY EMERGENCY RESPONSE EFFORTS?

13 A.

12 A. Yes.

13 -0 . DO YOU BELIEVE THAT THE REVISED BROCHURE PREPARED BY 14 DUKE POWER COMPANY ON WHAT TO DO IN A RADIOLOGICAL 15 EMERGENCY IS ADEQUATE FOR ITS INTENDED PURPOSE?

16 A. Yes. I believe the Duke brochure is adequate for its 17 intended purpose.

18 O.- 'DO.YOU HAVE PRIOR EXPERIENCE WITH READING AND 19 REVIEWING-EMERGENCY PLAN BROCHURES?

20 A.- Yes, I have read and evaluated the brochure forl the

-21 McGuire Nuclear-Station.and have had input intoLthat 22- 'through Duke Power Company. I also had-input.in the 23- oCatawba brochure and in the school brochure which is 24 being distributed for the school children within and 25 near for the Catawba EPZ.

3 FOR IN THIS REVIEW OR WHAT STANDARDS DID YOU REVIEW 4 THESE BROCHURES AGAINST?

5 A. The basic standard was to insure that the information 6 contained in the brochure was not in conflict with

- 7 State and County emergency plans.

, 8 Q. ARE YOU SATISFIED THAT THE CATAWBA EMERGENCY PLAN 9 REVISED BROCHURE FULLY ADDRESSES THE OBJECTIVES WHICH 10 ,

YOU, AS THE ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER OF EMERGENCY 11 PLANNING'FOR MECKLENBURG COUNTY, WANT IT TO ADDRESS?

12 'A. Yes. The information in it is not in conflict with 13 basic planning documents and procedures.

, 15 ASSURANCE.THAT MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC WOULD BE 16 ADEQUATELY PROTECTED IN THE EVENT'OF A CATAWBA-17 RELATED NUCLEAR EMERGENCY?

i 18 A. Based on the planning document;and as I see tha-19- planning document being' implemented,'if people will i 20 observe the instructions that local government I

'21 provides to-them via theLemergency broadcasting

.22 system,-I think that the plan ~can be implemented with 23 little or no' confusion and with:little or no panic.-

EMERGENCY PLANNING CONTENTION 7 ARGUES THAT THE 3 EXISTING EMERGENCY PLANS OF RELEVANT STATE AND LOCAL 4 AUTHORITIES DO NOT ADEQUATELY ADDRESS THE 5 PREPARATIONS THAT SHOULD BE MADE TO ACHIEVE EFFECTIVE 6 SHELTERING OR THE ACTIONS THAT PEOPLE SHOULD TAKE 7 WHEN ADVISED TO SEEK SHELTER. DO' YOU HAVE ANY 8 COMMENT ON THAT ARGUMENT?

9 A. I think there are enough channels of information for 10 the public thtough the Duke Power Company brochure, 11 through the plan, through the activities and 12 procedures that are developed-internally with the EOC 13 and through the Emergency Broadcast System. I don't 14 think our instructions would be a surprise to the

~

15 public and I don't think that panic would result 16 because we are not going to surprise them with 17 souething that they should not be well aware of 18 beforehand. In this regard,.the sheltering steps set 19 forth in Duke Power's brochure appear to be.

20 consistent with measures I am familiar with.

k.

1 Q. HAVE YOU READ THE CAROLINA ENVIRONMENTAL STUDY 2 GROUP / PALMETTO ALLIANCE CONTENTIONS WHICH HAVE BEEN 3 ACCEPTED AS ISSUES IN THIS PROCEEDING?

4 A. Yes.

5 Q. EY WAY OF BACKGROUND, WOULD YOU DESCRIBE THE OVERALL 6 T3RM OF COUNTY GOVERNMENT OF YORK COUNTY?

7 A. York County has a county manager form of government.

8 There are approximately 15 departments in the County 9 government.

10 Q. WHAT DEPARTMENT ARE YOU IN?

11 A. General Services.

12 Q. WHAT DOES YOUR DEPARTMENT OR GROUP HAVE TO DO WITH 13 EMERGENCY PLANNING?

14 A. The Municipal County Emergency Preparedness Agency is 15 a division of the Department of General Services.

16 Q. IS COORDINATION OF. EMERGENCY PLANNING YOUR USUAL JOB 7 17 A. No, it is not. However, the Director of Emergency 18 Preparedness reports to me so I am generally familiar-19 with York County's emergency planning efforts. Late 20 last year the director of the Municipal County 21 Emergency Preparedness Agency became seriously ill.

22 Due to that illness, he became incapacitated and was 23 unable to fulfill his normal responsibilities and 24 duties, which include a detailed knowledge of York W

p. .

1 County's emergency planning efforts. One of my

'2 responsibilities was to step in and fulfill the 3 director's duties.

4 Q. DOES YORK COUNTY HAVE A SPECIFIC RADIOLOGICAL 5 EMERGENCY PLAN FOR RESPONDING TO AN EMERGENCY AT 6 CATAWBA?

7 A. Yes. Annex Q in the York County Emergency Operations 8 Plan would be used to respond to a radiological 9 emergency at Catawba.

10 Q. DID YOU PREPARE THIS PLAN?

11 A. No, it was developed by the Director of Emergency 12 Preparedness.

13 Q. DID YOU SUPERVISE THIS INDIVIDUAL IN THE PREPARATION 14 OF THE PLAN?

15 A. Yes. I supervise the Department of General Services 16 of which the division of Emergency Preparedness is a 17- part.

.. 18 Q. 'SINCE THE PREPARATION OF THE PLAN HAVE YOU BECOME 19 FAMILIAR WITH IT?

20 A. -Yes, as I.noted, since.the illness of the Director of 21, ~ Emergency Preparedness, I have assumed his duties.

22 This has required'me to obtain a first-hand knowledge 23- of the plan.

24 Q. HOW DID YOU OBTAIN-SUCH KNOWLEDGE OF THE PLAN?

I

e .,

1 A. I read the plan and met with all relevant individuals 2 and service entities to assure that I fully 3 understood their role and how I was to coordinate 4 their efforts.

5 O. ARE YOU THE YORK COUNTY OFFICIAL RCSPONSIBLE FOR THE 6 PLAN?

7 A. At present, yes.

8 O. PLEASE DESCRIBE GENERALLY YOUR ROLE IN OVERSEEING THE 9 READINESS OF THE VARIOUS COUNTY DEPARTMENTS AND 10 AGENCIES THAT ARE INVOLVED IN RADIOLOGICAL EMERGENCY 11 RESPONSE IN YORK COUNTY.

12 A. I see my role as coordinating all of the separate 13 entities that are involved locally through the 14 different service agencies.

15 O. WOULD YOU BRIEFLY DESCRIBE THE PLAN?

16 A. Annex 0, as our overall plan does, addresses all the.

17 different components that would have to be addressed 18 in any type of emergency - natural or manmade. It 19 addresses all the different components of a nuclear l

20 incident at Catawba and it breaks them down into such 21 areas as communications,' security, transportation, 22 emergency medical services, and emergency welfare 23 services. All of'the different components that you 24 find outside the nuclear situation are all brought 25 together in Annex 0 in a nuclear situation.

I w w '

e .

1 O. IS THERE ANYTHING IN ANNEX Q WHICH IS SPECIFIC TO 2 RADIOLOGICAL EMERGENCY RESPONSE AND THEREFORE IS NOT 3 FOUND GENERALLY IN OTHER KINDS OF EMERGENCY RESPONSE?

4 A. There are numerous items that are unique to Annex 0, 5 such as monitoring, decontamination and sheltering 6 (identified in specific shelter sites). Evacuation 7 routes, maps, charts, and graphs' that relate to a 8 specific nuclear incident would also be unique to

.9 Annex 0 and not the other parts the of overall EOP.

10 O. IN YOUR OPINION, DOES THE YORK COUNTY PLAN PROVIDE 11 REASONABLE ASSURANCE THAT. MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC WILL s

12 BE ADEQUATELY PROTECTED IN THE EVENT OF A CATAWBA -

13 RELATED NUCLEAR EMERGENCY?

14 A. Yes.

15 O. IS THERE A SECTION OF THE YORK COUNTY PLAN THAT' 16- COVERS THE ISSUES RAISED BY EMERGENCY PLANNING 17 CONTENTIONS 1 AND 7,- WHICH DEAL WITH THE ADEQUACY OF 18 THE PUBLIC INFORMATION-ON EMERGENCY RESPONSE PROVIDED' 19 BY APPLICANTS AND BY COUNTY GOVERNMENTS?

f _20 A. Yes. Annex D (York EOP), Annex Q, Appendix 2.

(

21. EPC 1 Testimony 22 Q. WITH REGARD TO EMERGENCY PLANNING CONTENTION 1, WHAT 23 STEPS EULS YORK COUNTY TAKEN TO - EDUCATE .THE PUBLIC SO 24 AS TO ASSURE APPROPRIATE RESPONSES TO NOTIFICATION

'25 PROCEDURES?

I 1

1 A. Beyond normal media coverage of a county official 2 and/or department being involved in anything, which 3 would be in the local newspaper, there was quite a 4 bit of education at the school age level by our 5 former director prior to his becoming ill. Other 6 public education efforts that the county has been 7 involved in would be through the advisory board.

8 This is made up of several different community 9 leaders from around different parts of the county who 10 ,

attempt to educate other groups, spread the word, so 11 to speak, as far as what's taking place with the 12 emergency planning and the Catawba plant itself. I 13 see this as a general kind of educational process.

14 In addition to those items, officials of the York 15 county governmen,t and I have participated in a public 16 hearing following the emergency planning exercise, 17 and an open house at the Catawba plant where the 18 public has been invited in to become aware of what's 19 taking place there. York-County was represented at

20 this open house. Prior to the exercise,-there were l ,

~

21 thirteen different meetings held for the public to 22 come and familiarize themselves and ask questions 23 about what was taking place. - The county was 24 represented at those meetings.

-25 -O. WILL THE COUNTY CONTINUE SUCH EDUCATION. EFFORTS?

26 A. Ye s .-

s y _ _ _

t o 1 Q. ARE YOU FAMILIAR WITH APPLICANTS' BROCHURE 7 2 A. Yes.

3 Q. DO YOU HAVE AN OPINION AS TO ITS ADEQUACY IN ASSURING 4 APPROPRIATE REPONSES?

5 A. In my opinion it seems to be adequate.

6 EPC 7 Testimony 7 Q. EMERGENCY PLANNING CONTENTION 7 ALLEGES THAT EXISTING B EMERGENCY PLANS DO NOT ADEQUATELY ADDRESS THE 9 PREPARATIONS THAT SHOULD BE TAKEN "TO ACHIEVE 10 EFFECTIVE SHELTERING," NOR THE SPECIFIC ACTIONS THAT 11 PEOPLE SHOULD TAKE WHEN ADVISED TO SEEK SHELTER. DO 12 YOU AGREE WITH THIS ARGUMENT?

13 A. No. It would appear to me that people have been 14 adequately advised on these matters through the buke 15 Power brochure and through the county's efforts, 16 which include participation in public information 17 meetings and open houses at the Catawba plant. In 18 addition, if a radiological emergency occurred, the 19 EBS system would be used to reemphasize recommended 20 action for the public.
