- posed ~to. radioactive materialuof.three forms:
radioactive -noble gases' radioactive halogen gases, and radioactive
- particulates'..The LILCO Transition Plan has procedures devel-
'oped pursuant to; appropriate NRC regulations and guidelines that describe how the Local-Emergency Response Orgsnization -(LERO) would make a-protective action recommendation of shel-taring or evacuation for a segment.of the population. The rec-ommendation is based upon conditions at the time of an accident and the comparative-benefits that would be received by shel-tering and by evacuating. The recommendation of sheltering would provide protection to boaters, transients in the EPZ, people in cars, and people inside buildings within the EPZ. But'the recommendation will not result in zero dose. No pro- -tective action will result'in zero dose at any nuclear power plant in New York State cn in the country,.and.the NRC regula- ~ 'tions do;not.' contemplate that zero-dose must.be' achievable with protective actions in order that nuclear power. plants be al- ~ lowed to operate, contrary to the intervenors' suggestions oth-erwise. Nor do wind' shifts on Long Island. require that LILCO-recommend-evacuation out.to.5 to 7 miles in the event any evac-nation is recommended. The average wind speed on.Long Island is 8 miles, and the wind variability at Shoreham, a coastal lo-cation, is lower.than island or valley locations.

r ..My name is Dennis S. Mileti. My address is Depart-ment of Sociology, Colorado State University, Fort Collins, Colorado, 80523. My name is Richard J. Watts. My business address is Impell Corporation, 225 Broad Hollow Road, Melville, New York, 11747. 2. Q. Please state your professional qualifications. A. [Cordaro] I am Vice President, Engineering, for LILCO. My professional qualifications are being offcred-into evidence as part of the document enti-tied " Professional Qualifications of LILCO Witness-es." I an sitting on this panel to provide the LILCO management perspective on emergency planning, and to answer any questions pertinent to manage-ment. My role in emergency planning for Shoreham ( is to ensure that the needs and requirements of emergency planning are being met, and that the technical direction and content of emergency plan-ning are being conveyed to corporate management. I' l. accomplish this-by supervising the development and I implementation of the offsite emergency response plan for Shoreham; the Manager of the Local Emer-gency Response Implementing Organization (LERIO) reports directly to me. ~. _.
n .,L [Daverio] I am employed by LILCO as Supervisor of Emergency Planning and Regulatory Services, and - have been working on emergency planning for LILCO over four years. I am also. Assistant Manager of LILCO's Local Emergency Response Implementing Orga-nization (LERIO). My professional qualifications are being offered into evidence as part of the doc-s ument entitled " Professional Qualifications of LILCO Witnesses." As Supervisor of Emergency Plan-ning and Assistant Manager of LERIO, I am responsi-H ble for implementing LILCO's Local Emergency Re-sponse Plan. As such, I am familiar with the - issues surrounding protective action recommenda-tions. [Miele] I am employed by LILCO as the Radiation Protection Section Supervisor of the Nuclear Engi-neering Department. My professional qualificatiens ' are being offered into evidence as part of the doc-ument. entitled " Professional Qualifications of LILCO Witnesses." I am responsible for the corpo- - rate overview of all technical aspects of LILCO's emergency planning for onsite and offsite ra-diological protection, and therefore am familiar with the issues surrounding protective action rec-ommendations. [Mileti) I am an Associate Professor of Sociology and Director of the Hazards Assessment Laboratory at Colorado State University. My professional qualifications are heing offered into evidence as part of the document entitled " Professional-Quali- ~ fications of LILCO Witnesses." [ Watts] I am the Health Physics Supervisor for the Radiological Services Section of Impell Corpora-tion. My professional qualifications are being of-fered into evidence as part of the document enti-tied " Professional Qualifications of LILCO Witnesses." I have been retained by LILCO to serve as a Radiation Health Coordinator for LERO and have participated in LERO drills in this capacity. As such, I am familiar with the iceuos surrounding these contentions. 3. Q. What is the " Preamble to Contentions 50-83"? A. The " Preamble to Contentions 60-83" (pages 119-20 of the contentions) reads as follows: Preamble to Contentions 60-83. 10 CER Section 50.47(a)(1) requires a find-ing of. reasonable assurance that adequate protective measures can and will be taken in the event of a ra-diological emergency. In addition, 10 .CFR Section 50.47(b)(10) requires the development of a range of protective ac-tions for the public; guidelines for the
c,.
- s -
.W7 choice of protective actions.must be consistent with Federal guidance. Such guidance includes the Manual of Protec-Ltive Action Guides ("PAGs") ,e (EPA-520/1-75-001), which sets forth the threshold projected dose-levels at which protective actions are to'be commenced. The PAGs are embraced in NUREG 0654, Sections II.J.7 and J.9, cnd are refer-enced in the LILCO Plan, at Section 3.6, and OPIP.3.'6.1. NUREG 0654. in Sections II.J.9.and J.10, requires.that there be established "a capability for implementing protective measures. based upon protective action guides and other criteria."- (Emphasis'added). In Contentions 60-83, Intervenors con-tend that LILCO's plan does not provide reasonable assurance that adequate pro-tective measures can.and will'be imple-mented to protact the population from the potential health hazards of an acci-dent at Shoreham. Thus, (a) there is no reasonable assurance that thc. measures proposed in the.LILCO Plan would, if taken, provide adequata protection from 'the potential consequences of an.emer-gency at Shoreham; and (b) there is no reasonable assurance that the proposed measures could or would in fact be taken in the event of an emergency. ?< 4. Q. What'is the "Further Preamble to' Contentions
- ~
60-62"? ?A. The "Further Preamble to' Contentions 60-62" reads as follows: c -Further Preamble to Contentions 60-62. .The LILCO. Plan provides that the protective action of sheltering '~ -may be recommended (Plan, at 3.6-5), Land that it.is "the preferred protec-i tive action if sufficient protection
- is offered by sheltering, or if no

~ lY ' ~, : additional, benefit is gained by evac-uation." '(OPIP 3.6.1, Section 3.2). Intervenors contend that as to the proposed protective action of shel-taring, the LILCOl Plan fails to.com- ~ ply with 10 CFR Section 50.47(a)(1) and NUREG.0654,' Section II.J.9, be-cause.there is no assurance that sheltering,-as a protective action, could or would be_ effectively imple-mented in'the event of an emergency in a manner which would protect the public. Indeed, the facts indicate that'many people will refuse to shel-ter and will, instead, choose to evacuate, and that many other per- ' sons, as a practical matter, will be unable to shelter. Thus, sheltering cannot be~ viewed as an adequate pro-tective action, as LILCO appears to believe, for the reasons set forth in SC Contentiona.60-62. [ Footnote omitted.] 4 Contention 60: Selective Sheltering 5. Q. What is Contention 60? A. Contention 60 reads as follows: Contention 60. At page 3.6-5 of the LILCO Plan, LILCO states: Th[e] protective action (of selective sheltering] may be or-dered at projected _ doses below the accepted PAGs to minimize radioactive exposure,-particu-larly to pregnant women and children. The Sheltering option may be recommended as an effective op-tion for individuals who could not-be safely evacuated. This - -. -.. _ ~.. _ _., - _ _ _... _. _ -...
i would include individuals who have been designated medically unable to withstand the physical stress of.an evacuation, as well as:those individuals who require constant, sophisticated medical attention. The Plan fails to set forth guide-lines to be used by command and con-trol personnel: (a) in choosing to recommend the protective action of selective sheltering; or (b) in de-termining the individuals who should or would be subject to such a recom-mendation. Rather, as quoted above, the Plan contains only generalized . statements which, in fact, provide no guidance at all. In addition, there are no procedures which indicate the means by which such a recommendation would or could be implemented. The Plan thus fails to comply with 10 CFR Sections 50.47 (a)(1), 50.47 (b)(10) and NUREG 0654, Sections II.J.9.and .J.10. 6. Q. What are the legal standards cited in Contention 60? A. The legal-standards cited in Contention 60 are the following: 10 C.F.R. 6 SO.47(a)(1) No operating licence for a nuclear power reactor will be issued unless a finding is made by NRC that the state of onsite and offsite emergency pre-paredness provides reasonable assur-ance that adequate protective mea-sures can and will be taken in the event of a radiological emergency.
. 10 C.F.R. 5 50.47(b)(10) A range of protective actions have been developed for tne plume exposure pathway EPZ for emergency workers and the public. Guidelines for the choice of protective actions during an cmergency consistent with Federal guidance, are developed and in place, and protective actions for the inges-tion exposure pathway EPZ appropriate to the locale have been developed. NUREG-0654, II.J.9 Each State and local organization shall establish a capability for im-plementing protective measures based upon protective action guides and other criteria. This shall be con-sistent wi.th the recommendations of EPA regarding exposure resulting from - passage of radioactive airborne plumes, (EPA-520/1-75-OOl) and with those of DHEW (DHHS)/FDA regarding radioactive contamination of human food and animal feeds as published in the Federal Register of December 15, 1978 (43 FR 58790). NUREG-0654, II.J.10 The organization's plans to implement protective measures for the plume ex-posure pathway shall include: -m. The bases for the choice of rec-ommended protective actions from the plume exposure pathway during emergency conditions. This shall include expected local protection afforded in residential units or other shelter for direct and inhalation exposure, as well as evacuation time estimates. 7. .Q. Does the LILCO Transition Plan identify " selective sheltering" as a potential protective action? _ _. ~
_9 A. Yes, at page 3.6-5 (Attachment 1 to this testimo-ny). 8. Q. What is " selective sheltering"? A. Selective sheltering is a protective action that may be ordered at projected doses below the Envi-ronmental Protective' Agency's (EPA's) accepted PAGs (Protective Action Guides) to minimize radioactive exposure, particularly to pregnant women and chil- .dren. 9. Q. Why does the LILCO Transition Plan include selec-tive sheltering? A. [Cordaro, Daverio, Miele, Watts] Revision 3 of the LILCO Plan states at 3.6-5 (Attachment 1 to this testimony) that selective sheltering for children and pregnant women or other persons deemed radio-sensitive would not be implemented "without consul-tation with the N.Y. State Commissioner of Health." ,u LILCO included selective sheltering in the Plan in order to be consistent with the New York State Ra-diological Emergency Plan page III-41 (Attachment 2 to this testimony) and to ensure that Local Emer-gency Responsa Organization (LERO) personnel would be familiar with the State terminology should New
i 4 . l p York State decide to take an active role in an emergency response for Shoreham. In short, the Plan includes selective sheltering to provide the - flexibility to adapt to a State recommendation for ~ selective sheltering, should the State choose to respond to an emergency at Shoreham. . 10. Q. What does the New Ycrk State Radiological Emergency Plan provide regarding selective sheltering? A. - [Cordaro, Daverio,. Miele, Watts) -The New York i State Plan ~, page III-41 (Attachment 2), states as follows: In general, protective actions will be taken in accordance with the EPA PAG guidelines. The Commissioner of Health may recommend protective ac - tion at projected doses below these guidelines to minimize' radioactive - exposure, particularly of pregnant women and children. The. Selective - Sheltering Option will provide this flexibility. In addition, the Selec- - tive; Sheltering-Option may be recom-mended by the State Commissioner of Health as an effective option _for in-dividuals who could not be safely evacuated, if a Selective or General 1, ' Evacuation may otherwise-be recom-mended. This would includa individu- - als who have been designated medi-cally unable 1to withstand the physical and/or psychological stress of an evacuation, as:well as those individuals who require-constant, so-phisticated medical attention. g -c v ' S e m h b e-n w 4 g wy -gy -y ge-y>mB-: o 9 w, y e,wg -ww-g-yN-e w-- -= w y reti teru--y*g .cgp -ta-wgei-F- MP%

A & 11. Q. Under what' circumstances, then, would LERO recom-mend selective sheltering? A. [Cordaro, Daverio, Miele, Watts] Without instruc-tions from the State Commissioner of Health or other State officials, LERO would not recommend se-lective sheltering for radiosensitive persons. If sheltering were advisable for any portion of the population that was considered radiosensitive, LERO would recommend sheltering for the entire popula-tion in the affected area. Fcr a discussion of when and how LERO might recommend sheltering to those organizations such as hospitals, where evacu-ation might put residents at risk, see LILCO's tes-timony in response to Contention 72. 12. Q. Dr. Mileti, in other testimony you have said that the evacuation advisories at Three-Mile Island, which were directed only at pregnant women and young children, were a message about risk to the entire population, and therefore it is only natural that other members of that population evacuated as well. Does'this mean that selective sheltering is not a workable alternative? A. [Mileti] No, selective sheltering is an opticn for response to emergencies at nuclear power plants.
r Selective sheltering is applicable to emergency planning in two ways. First, selective sheltering could refer to "special" groups of people within a larger population that are taking some other pro-tective action, for example, evacuating. This type of selective sheltering could apply, for example, to people who are too infirm to engage in evacua-tion (the way in which the LILCO Plan applies it). This application of selective sheltering is not complicated by being perceived as risk information for people in the area not advised to engage in this particular protective action, since those peo-ple would also be taking some (other) protective action. Second, selective sheltering could refer to public advisories that certain demographic groups (for ex- . ample, pregnant women and children) in a specific locality shelter while others in the same area are not advised to take any protective action. In this case, it is possible, given that the public would likely interpret'such an advisory as a statement about the risk in a particular area, that other people not " demographically" included in the advis-ory would also shelter. However, when one is con-sidering sheltering, it is hard to see how

- g., '
LERO, if reqhested by the State) would issue a spe-cific prote'ctive action recommendation of selective ' sheltering for radiosensitive persons via the u e eA-
_ Emergency Broadcast System. Again, only at the State's direction, should it choose to respond dur-ing an actual emergency, would selective shcitering be recommended to.a portion of the population when 'the remaining population-in the same area took no protective action. Contention 61: Sheltering 15. Q. What is Contention 61? A. (Cordaro, Daverio, Miele, Watts] Contention 61 reads as follows: Contention 61. Intervenors contend that a-protective action recommenda-tion of sheltering would not or could not be implemented. Specifically, a substantial number of people who might be advised to shelter, as a practical matter, will be unable to do so.because: A. A large number of homes and other structures in the EPZ are con-structed of wood and have no base-ments. According to LILCO's shielding factors (Plan, Table ~ 3.6.5), the protection offered by such shelter is limited, at most, to a reduction in dose of only 10 per-cent from that received with no shel-ter. As a practical matter, persons with access to such structures have little~" shelter" available, and thus sheltering should not be considered as a protective action for these per-sons.
" ~ B. Persons who.are traveling in their cars or other vehicles at the time of a sheltering recommendation ~ may not be able to reach shelter fast enough to obtain_any. protection from a release of radioactive fission -products. Vehicles offer essentially no protection _from radioactive doses. [ Contention 61.C, dealing with implementing protective action recom-mendations at schools within the.EPZ, is addressed in-LILCO's testimony on 1 schools.] D. Transients who are on beaches, in parks or in other outdoor ' recreation areas will.have no access tofshelter. Contrary to the' require-ment.of NUREG 0654 Section J.10.a, 'the Plan fails to identify public sheltering areas. (See FEMA Report, _at 8). E. Persons who are in boats in the EPZ will'have no access to shel-ter. Moreover, even if people were willing and able to follow a sheltering rec-cmmendation, there is no1 assurance that taking such. action would provide -any significant dose. savings and thus
- prevent-persons in the EPZ from
_. receiving health-threatening radia-tion doses for the following reasons: [ Contention 61.F was not admitted by the Board.1 G. Many other homes in the EPZ, even iflthey provideLmore shielding -than a-wood house,.will only reduce d; doses about 50 percent. In a severe accident, a 50-percent dose reduction will still result in health-threatening doses. -H. According to LILCO, the aver- ' age sheltering factor available in
1 l l the EPZ is 0.7, which means that, on the average, those who follow a shel- .tering recommendation will nonetheless receive 70 percent of the dose they would receive from the plume if they were outside the shel-ter. I. The cloud doses resulting from a release of radioactive fission products from the Shoreham plant could be so substantial that even ~ taking into account the 30 percent average dose reduction provided by shelter in the EPZ, persons who fol-low a sheltering recommendation could still receive doses that would cause adverse health effects. [ Footnote omitted.] Thus, sheltering is not an adequate protective action in the event of an emergency at shoreham, and the Plan, therefore, fails to comply with 10 CFR Sections 50.47(a)(1) and 50.47(b)(10), and NUREG 0654 Section II.J.9. 16. .Q. What are the legal standards for Contention 61? A. [Cordaro, Daverio, Miele, Watts] The legal stan-dards are the following: 10 C.F.R. S 50.47(a)(ll No operating license for a nuclear power reactor will be issued unless a finding ~is made by NRC that the state of onsite and offsite emergcncy pre-paredness provides reasonable assur-ance that adequate protective mea-sures can and will be taken in the event of a radiological emergency.
- 10 C.F.R. 6 50.47(b)(10) A range of protective actions have been developsd for the plume exposure pathway EPZ for emergency workers and the public. Guidelines for the choice of protective actions during - an emergency consistent with Federal guidance, are developed and in place, and protective ' actions for the inges " tion exposure pathway EPZ appropriate to the locale have been developed. NUREG-0654, II.J.9 Each State and local organization shall establish a capability for 4 implementing protective measures based upon protective action guides.and other criteria. This shall be consistent with the rec-ommendations of EPA regarding exposure resulting from passage of radioactive airborne plumes, (EPA-520/1-75-001) and with those of DHEW (DHHS)/FDA regarding radioactive contamination of human food and animal feeds as published in the Federal Register of December 15, 1978 (43 Fed. Reg. 58,790). NUREG-0654,'II.J.10 . The organization's plans to implement protective measures for the plume ex-posure pathway shall include: Maps showing evacuation routes, evac-uation areas, preselected ra-diological sampling and monitoring points, relocation centers in host areas, and shelter areas; (identifi-cation of radiological sampling and monitoring points-shall include the designators in Table J-1 or an equiv-alent uniform system described in the plan);
. Contention 61.A: Shielding Factors 17.
- Q.
What types of radiation exposure might result from 'an accident at a nuclear power plant? A. (Cordaro, Daverio, Miele, Watts) During an emer-gency at a nuclear power plant, the downwind popu-lation may be exposed to radioactive material of three forms, as follows: (1) Radioactive noble gases. These are chemically inactive gases that travel in the plume and cause -^ an external dose to the whole body. (2) Radioactive-haloge'n gases. These are chemi-( ~cally active gases, primarily iodine, that also travel in the plume. These gasos, when inhaled, migrate through the' blood and tend to~ concentrate in the thyroid. Thus, inhalation of these gases will result primarily in a thyroid dose. (3)_ Radioactive particulates. These are dust-like particles that are deposited from the plume on to-surfaces in the downwind a;ea. These particulates may result in an external whole body dose. In_ad-dition, deposited particulates when disturbed may become airborne again and cause an internal dose if inhaled. I l
- i. 18.
Q. How much less shielding does a person get if he is in a wooden home with no basement than if he is in aEmasonry home with a basement? A. [Cordaro, Daverio, Miele, Watts] The relative. whole body dose shielding benefit obtained by being inside a structure will differ for radiation emit-ted from the different types of radioactive materi-al mentioned above. In general, the more substan-tial the structure, the more benefit it will provide. The thyroid dose comes from inhaled gases, however,_and therefore the rate of air transfer through the structure becomes the critical factor. 'The thyroid dose sheltering factor pres-ently used is based upon guidance from the 1978 version of EPA's Protective Action Evaluation (EPA 520/1-75-001). Since it is difficult to generalize about windows, doors, and ventilation types for the many different structures in a community, a con-stant air replacement rate is assumed in the 1978 EPA 520. The following table shows the shielding benefits from different' types of structures, based on the .1978 EPA 520 (see Attachment 3 to this testimony). The thyroid plume factors are based upon an assumed exposure duration of one hour.

EPA's Manual of Pro-tective Action Guides (EPA 520/1-75-001A), dated June 1983, has provided new guidance on thyroid dose shielding: 0.36 for structures of wood or ma-- sonry with or without a basement, and 0.06 for large buildings (see Attachment 4 to this testimo-ny). The new model, which is more realistic, shows a greater benefit because it assumes a logarithmic air exchange rather than a linear exchange. These new values will be incorporated into the LILCO Transition Plan's protective action procedure OPIP 3.6.1 (Attachment 5 to this testimony). 19. Q. .Because some-people have no basements, or live in frame houses, would it make sense to eliminate sheltering as a protective action for (a) all the r w-we w ,r,- ,,,r, ,-.---~-,-,,,,w-----
'^ - people in'the EPZ, (b) those people who have no basements or (c; thone who do not live in masonry ~ hcuses? A. [Cordaro, Daverio, Miele, Watts] No, it would not. From the above table it can be seen that, general-ly, a wooden house without a basement offers less benefit than the basement of a masonry house. But for a release of short duration that is composed of particulates and gaseous iodines that could result in a thyroid inhalation dose, a wood frame house will provide a substantial sheltering benefit. Mnking protective action recommendations requires in part that one compare, based upon the circum-stances of a particular accident, the dose that might be received by the population if it shelters to the dose if it evacuates. Thus, a recommenda-tion for sheltering should not be. discounted; all sheltering action would provide benefits to some extent. - The comparison of doses that might be re-ceived under evacuation and under sheltering must be considered in making a recommendation. Further, it is not feasible to evacuate a portion of the population based upon home structures, be-cause of the confusion it would cause. The I
~-- - s protective.ection recommendations prepared under OPIP-3.6.1-(Attachment 5 to this testimony) use an average: whole-body plume shielding f actor for Suffolk County of 0.7. This shielding factor is representative of-the housing in the County. Sheltering probably would be the appropriate pro-tective action under the following conditions: (1) If the projected dose is only slightly~above the Environmental: Protection Agency Protective Ac-tion. Guides (EPA PAGs), or of short duration, and the area shelters will provide enough benefit to make evacuation. unnecessary; or -(2)-If the roads are hazardous due to' weather and therefore' evacuation cannot safely be accomplished; or (3)'If sheltering would result in lower doses when compared to the doses that might be received if people evacuate. =20. Q. Couldn't people without basements make their way to a neighbor'.s house or to a nearby public building?
r: z - A. l[Cordaro, Daverio, Miele, Watts] We do not think [ i it'is reasonable to expect' people already in a . building to seek shelter in another building, for - several reasons. First, while theoretically it could be beneficial r for-people in homes without basements to seek shel- -tering in a basgment elsewhere, as a practical mat- -ter it could cause confusion and result in a . greater. net dose,_because people would be required to go outside tci search for better shelter. While they were outside, they would have no protection from-a plume and, for example, might receive a thy-roid inhalation dose as well as a whole body dose. Second, if sheltering is-recommended because the roads are hazardous due to-snow and ice, then it -would not be advisable to have people leaving their homes to' seek "better" shelter. In addition, as stated in'the County's contention, automobiles offer limited protection from either whole body or thyroid doses. It is not advisable to have. people driving around unnecessarily in the plume. ~ ' Third, in the public education program, LILCO explains where the best locations for sheltering l are within a particular type of structure.

< Consequently,: LILCO has not included in its plan-ning any notion that-people should look around to seek the "best" building in which to shelter when sheltering is thel recommended protective action. ~ . Contention 61.B: Persons In Automobiles 21. -Q. Suppose.a person were traveling in his car at the time a sheltering recommendation is made. Might he be unable to reach shelter in time to avoid expo-sure to radiation? A. [Cordaro, Daverio, Miele, Watts) If sheltering is recommended, people in cars will hear the sirens if they are in the 10-mile EPZ and so almost all will -have immediate access to radios and will be able to respond. If the driver lives in the EPZ, he would be able to reach a place of shelter (his home) quickly. If the driver does not live in the EPZ, he could quickly seek shelter in a building. Even if the driver chose to drive out of the EPZ he would be traveling faster than the average wind speed experienced near the Shoreham plant. Conse-quently, in 30 minutes, a person would be able to drive to a point outside the EPZ from any point within it, assuming he must drive 10 miles and does so at 20 mph.
s - p. Contention 61.D: Shelter for Transients 22. Q. Does the plan identify buildings within the EPZ for transients seeking shelter in r'esponse to a protec-tive action' recommendation of sheltering? A. [Cordaro, Daverio, Miele, Watts] No. In the LILCO Plan, LILCO has chosen not to identify specific public buildings for shelters within the EPZ for transients' use if' sheltering is recommended to the-population, because (1) it is not likely that non-residents would be able to find a particular build-ing, and (2) residents should be encouraged to re-turn to their homes which would make any subsequent evacuation easier. ~ 23. Q. If a sheltering recommendation is made, what will transients do who are on the beaches, in parks, or in other outdoor recreation areas?- A. '[Cordaro, Daverio, Miele, Watts] The EBS message on sheltering in the LILCO Transition Plan, OPIP 3.8.2, p. 22 of 38 (Attachment 6 to this testimo-ny), instructs people not at home to seek shelter inside buildings. The transient population that would be located at parks and beaches would only be there during warm weather when roads would be . ~.
J - passable. Therefore,-when the sirens are sounded the transient population will be able to mobilize rapidly and seek-shelter in a building or return home. Contention 61.E: Boaters - ;24 Q. If a sheltering recommendation is made, what will persons in boats do? A. [Cordaro, Daverio, Miele, Watts] Sirene can be heard out to about two miles on the Long Island Sound, so some boaters will hear sirens. They will receive sheltering instructions over their radios. In addition, upon reaching an Alert, the Coast - Guard in New Haven will be notified as indicated in OPIP 3.3.2 ( Attachinent __ to this testimony). If protective action recommendations are made, the Coast Guard will transmit messages to all boats via marine band radio, advising people to leave the area and explaining to them which areas should be avoided. Coast Guard boats will be dispatched to notify any remaining boaters to advise them to leave the area, and to, restrict all marine traffic b within the lO-mile'EPZ. g-c- g,,-, yy-.y.,,eg- ,w yw-w-- -e%,--- --,,---~ww- --wsy-yr-+r-e-= ve---+- y- -4N#"vT--*---'T '--"-T-'w-v7---T"- Contentions 61.G, 61.H, and 61.I: Protection Offered by Taking Shelter 25. Q. Contentions 61.G, H, and I allege that cheltering will not totally protect people from radiation ex-posure. Is this.true? A. [Cordaro,'Daverio, Miele, Watts] Yes. Sheltering reduces the amount of radiation exposure, but it cannot totally eliminate a potential dose from being received by the population. As shown in NUREG-0654 guidelines, protective actions need not be recommended below a threshold level. When threshold levels are reached, the protective action recommended should provide the largest dose savings l-for the public, taking into account the circum-stances at the time of-the accid'fnt. But a protec-tive action will not result :ba zero dcse. The NRC regulations do not contemplate that zero dose must be achievable with protective actions in order that nuclea*: power plants be allowed to operate, con-trary.to the intervenorc' assertions otherwise. 26. Q. Would this be true of every other emergency plan for power plants operating in New York State? t ,n -s ,mn.- ...,---m c,- - - -
4 A. [Cordarc, Daverio, Miele,. Watts] Yes. No power plant in New York State, or in the country, can use ~ protective actions to achieve zero dose in the event of an accident. Contention 63: Selective Evacuation 27. Q. What is Contention 63? A. Contention 63 reads as follows: Contention 63. The LILCO Plan states at page 3.6-6: Selective Evacuation may be im-plemented to evacuate from'the affected area of the plume expo-sure EPE members of the general public who might have a low tol-erance to radiation exposure. 'Specifically, this would. include-pregnant women and children-12 years.and under. The Plan fails to set forth guide-lines to be used by command and con-trol personnelt (a) in choosing to recommend the protective action of-selective evacuation; or (b) in de-termining, identifying and locating the individuals who should be subject to such a recommendation. In addi-tion, there are no procedures which indicate the means by which such a recommendation could or would be im-plemented. The Plan thus~ fails to comply-with 10 C.F.R.

This shall include expected local protection afforded in residential units or other shelter for direct and inhalation exposure, as well as evacuation time estimates. 29. -Q. 'What is selective evacuation? A. This is a protective action that limits the evacua-tion to a-portion of the population defined by other-than by. geographic' location, usually ra-diosensitive persons such as pregnant women and children. 30. Q. What does the LILCO Transition Plan say about se-lective evacuation? A. The LILCO Transitio'n Plan at page 3.6-6 (Attachment 8 to this testimony) says the following about se-lective evacuation: Selective Evacuation Selective Evacuation may be imple-mented to evacuate from the affected area.of the plume exposure EPZ mem-bers of the general public who might a ,,,..-n.- . ~. - - - - - - -,.,,,,.,,,.-,,.,. .c., a- , w
w 7 -have a low tolerance to radiation ex-posure. Specifically, this would in-clude pregnant women and children 12 years.and under. This protective action strategy has been adopted from the New York State Radiological Emergency Preparedness Plan (III-53,54). It may.be imple-mented for projected dose levels of 1 to 5 rems whole body or 5 to 25 rems to the thyroid, but not without con-sultation with the N. Y. State Com-missioner of Health. - Thus, contrary to what the contention says, tne Plan clearly states the. guidelines for choosing se-lective evacuation as a protective action. The dose guidelines are "projccted dose levels of 1 to 5 rems whole body or 5 to 25 rems thyroid." The persons affected are defined as " pregnant women and children 12 years.and under " 31. Q. On what does LILCO base the guidelines for selec-tive evacuation set out in the Plan? A. . [Cordaro, Daverio, Miele, Watts] These guidelines were taken directly from' EPA's Protective Action Guides (PAG's). The PAG's-(see Table 3.6.1 cf the LILCO Transition Plan, which is Attachment 9 to this testimony) call for no action if the projected dose is less than 1 rem whole body (or 5 rem thy-roid), and for mandatory evacuation if the +p-re--- ya w ,=g 7--y- , - - ~, - - - ,v-w y,e-,-m-,- w+ w y w
i , projected dose is 5 rem or above whole body (or 25 ~ rem or above thyroid). Between 1 and 5 rem whole body (5 and 25 rem thyroid) the protective action is " shelter as a minimum," with a recommendation te " consider" evacuation, particularly for children and pregnant women. The comment to this dose is that "[i]f constraints exist, special considera-tions should be given for evacuation of children and pregnant women." Thus, the PAG's allow flexi-bility in the 1-5 rem whole body range and in the 5
- to 25 rem thyroid range for selective evacuation.
32. Q. Dr. Mileti, you've said that when children and pregnant women were advised to evacuate at Three -Mile Island, this sent a message to everyone else that they might be at risk also. Does this mean that selective evacuation is not a viable alterna-tive? A. [Mileti] ENo, selective evacuation advisories are one option for protective action during an emergen-cy at a nuclear power plant. But it is important for those who might issue a public advisory for se-lective avacuation (the evacuation of only people with certain demographic characteristics from a specific locality while others in the same area are
E i t not included) to understand that actual public re- ~.. sponse likely would not match the advisory. If children-twelve years of age or younger and pregnant-women.were advised to evacuate a specified locality, some others who are not pregnant or not twelve' years of age or younger would also evacuate that area.- This is because a selective evacuation advisory to certain demographic groups.would also contain location-specific information regarding risk to everyone in thet area. Some people would, consequently, define the area as "at risk." Those who are not included in the demographic group ad-vised to evacuate under a selective evacuation but who are in the same locality, could personalize the risk and. evacuate although it is not recommended that they.do so. Likely publ'c response to a selective evacuation-i advisory during a nuclear' power plant emergency does not preclude the option of issuing one. It does, however, suggest that those who might decide to issue such an advisory should be aware of the public response that the advisory would likely pre-cipitate. In this way, decisions about public emergency information (including advisories) and
i public safety could be reasonably matched to likely public response. I might also add that emergency - planners for Long Island-Lighting Company are well-aware.of this likely_public response.to a selective - (demographic)fevacuation advisory for a specific location associated.with a nuclear power plant ac-cident. 33. -Q. When would LILCO recommend the protective action of ~ se1ective evacuation? A.. [Cordaro, Daverio, Miele, Watts] Ravision 3 to the LILCO. Plan stater, at 3.6-6 (Attachment 8 to this testimony) that the protective action of selective evacuation would not be implemented without " con-sultation with the N.Y. State' Commissioner of Health." - LILCO placed this provision in the Plan in order to maintain consistency.with the New York . State Plan and assure that LERO personnel familiar with.the terminology that might be used if New York State participated in the emergency response. LILCO would recommend selective evacuation only if instructed to do so by New York State. In the ab-sence of such an instruction, LILCO would recommend n evacuation for a general population in a specific area. + ,w,- -.=,,,,y .~y .-,,,,,,-,,,y,.. ,-,_y .w,7,m,.,,.
'34. -Q. -What procedures would be used to implement a recom-mendation of selective evacuation? A. [Cordaro, Daverio, Miele, Watts] The State (or LERO,-if requested by the State) would issue a spe- ~ cific recommendation of selective evacuation using the procedures outlined in the evacuation section of the~ State Plan at III-43 (Attachment 10 to this testimony). The public would be notified of the recommendation to evacuate selected segments of the population by the broadcasting of EBS messages ad-vising the public of the recommended protective ac-tion. Contention 64: Wind Shifts 35. Q. What is Contention 64? A. (Cordaro, Daverio, Miele, Watts] Contention 64 reads as follows: Contention 64. The LILCO Plan proposes an EPZ consisting of 19 sep-arate zones. In the event-of a ra-diological emergency at Shoreham requiring evacuation of the EFZ, it .is LILCO's-intended strategy to evac-uate all zones within two-miles of the Shorehaa plant, but only a por-tion of those zones outside of the two-mile radius. (See OPI? 3.6.1, ). LILCO's plan, howev-er, fails to account for the fact t-
p_ - that the wind shifts.quickly on Long Island,fwith average vind speeds of approximately 10 miles per hour. Under such conditions, a shift in wind direction could quickly direct the plume over an ataa that was not s in the original-plume pathway, and - thus not included in the initial evacuation order, before that, area could be evacuated. Ir.tervenors contend that given. wind conditions on Long Icland, in the event any evacuation due.to a ra-diological etaergency is required, LILCO must' evacuate at least a radius of five to seven milec around_the plant. Any-partial evacuation of only certain zones within a five to seven mile radius would expose the , population of the nearby unevacuated zor.es to the risk of a sudden wind shift and. consequent health-threatening exposure to radiation. Under these conditions, the LILCO evacuation plan fails to constitute an adequate protective action, as re-quired by 10 CFR Sections 50.47(a)(1)
- f and 50.47(b)(10).
36. Q. .What.are the legal standards for contention 64? Ju [Cordaro, Daverio, Miele, Watts] The legal stan-dards cited'in. Contention 64 are.the following: t' C 10 C.F.R. 6 50.47(a)(1) No operating license for a nucle-ar. power reactor will be issued un- -less a. finding is made by NRC that the state.ofronsite and offsite emer-gency preparedness provides reason-able assurance that adequate protec-tive measures can and will be taken in the event of a radiological emer-gency. g 9-e, -v--- 4 + w .--.e,*ww,4 ~,qg aw--re-.- e --y e>r-, e,-.,n w*V~ w -rvm'--r+- e s'~ m ww~ w rw+-- - -- -v -m er -v'** ~-w s"'ww-m
s 10 C.F.R. 6 50.47(b)(10) A range of protective actions have been developed for the plume ex-posure pathway EPZ for emergency workers and the public. Guidelines 4 for the choice of protective actions during an emergency consistent with Federal guidance, are developed and in place, and protective actions for the ingestion exposure pathway EPZ appropriate to the locale have been developed. 37. Q. Contention 64 alleges that evacuation of certain zones is inadequate because the wind may shift quickly and that therefore at least a radius of five to seven miles must be evacuated-if any evacu-ation at all is called for. Do you agree that, re-gardless of conditions at the tirae of an. accident, 'LILCO should recommend in its Plan an evacuation of a radius of 5.to 7 miles from the plant uhenever evacuation is recommended? A. [Cordaro, Daverio, Miele, Watts] No, we do not. Evacuation recommendatichs should be made for a particular portion of the EPZ based on circumstanc~ es at the time of an accident. A blanket evacua-tion recommendation like that for everyone in the EPZ likely would not be necessary, and is not con-templated by NRC regulations. -,_=.. _. (38. Q. Do guidelines provided by New York State to nuclear plants require such evacuation out to 7 miles? 'A. [Cordaro, Daverio, Miele, Watts] No. As explained by New York _ State's experts (see excerpts of depo-sitions that are Attachments 11 and 12 to this tes-timony),.there are situations where wind direction can be predicted, and thus unnecessary evacuation can be avoided. (Attachment 11 at 46.) Current meteorological conditions at the time of the acci-dent should be used in deciding the appropriate protective action recommendation. (Attachment 12 at 25.) 39. Q. How is a protective action recommendation of evacu-ation made by the Local Emergency Response Organi-zation to the public? A. [Cordaro, Daverio, Miele, Watts] The offsite LERO organization independently calculates projected doses and derives a protective action recommenda-tlon. When the projected dose to the population exceeds the EPA Protective Action Guides, OPIP 3.6.1 (Attachment 5 to this testimony) is used to i evaluate the most appropriate protective action based upon evacuation times, release direction and duration, sheltering factors, plant conditions, and other pertinent data. ~ _ _ _. _ -,.
1 l l - -These data are also evaluated by Shoreham onsite personnel who independently arrive at a protective action recommendation. If the recommendations are inconsistent, the Radiation Health Coordinator will investigate.the basis of the site's. recommendation. The Radiation Health Coordinator discusses his con- ]clusionsregardingprotectiveactionswiththeDi-6_rechor'of Local Response. "^ ' w a ^ The Director then.makes a protective action recom- ^[ mendation.for speci ic zones in the EPZ. This rec-ommendation is broadcast to the public via the EBS ~ ( radio network. 40. D. What information does'the Director of Local Re-sponse receive,-in addition to the information pro-vided'from the" Radiation Health Coordinator, in de-termining;what protective action recommendation to Emake to the public? ~ ')O [Cordaro, Daverio, Miele, Watts] The LERO organi-zati'on has its own field monitoring teams, OPIP 3.5.J pp. 1-9 (Attachment 13 to this testimony), provided by DOE-Radiological Assistance Program ' team members, to evaluate actual doses from the field. In addition, meterological data are avail-able from the National Weather Service and y n ~, ,--m,- m~e, re----
s P' m -Brookhaven National Laborato'ry. Extensive resourc-es are also detailed in the DOE-RAP local ra-diological emergency response plan in Plan Attach-ment 2.2.1 (Attachment 14 to this testimony). If there is sufficient time, the Director would re-ceive this information prior to making a recommen-dation. 41. Q. . ould the protective action recommendation from W LERO ever suggest evacuation out to 7 miles? A. [Cordaro, Daverio, Miele, Watts]. The protective action will take the form of a keyhole. This key-hole will be made up of a 360' degree area circling the plant plus a downwind wedge of at least 67 de-grees. Depending on the projected doses the pro-tective action recommendation will be one of the following: ~(a) 2 miles. (b) 2 miles plus a 5-mile downwind sector. (c) 5 miles plus a 10-mile downwind sector. These keyholes are described in the Plan at OPIP 3.8.2, Attachment 5 (Attachment 15 to this testimo-ny).
' ~* / q. y, +: y IS' r ~ The~ reason for the 2 or 5 mile circular area is so s-that in case of a change in wind direction, those s n areas near the plant will have-already taken pro-Y tective actions. 'As can be seen from looking at ~?- ~- the~ zone map _in the Plan at Appendix A, Figure 3 ^ -(Attachment 16 to this testimony), the zones af- \\ ~fected by a five mile' evacuation actually go out to 'about seven miles except inizone J. When weather i forecast information indicates that the wind direc-tion will change, the protective action is recalculated and if necessary a new protective ac- ~- tion recommendation is issued. If between the time the Director of Local Response 42. Q receives the onsite suggestion as to protective ac- , tion and'an actual announcement _is made, the wind "were to-shift, would the Director of Local Response ~ 9 know about it? c(s y N -A2 jcordaro, Daverio, Miele, Watts) The wind direc-s i tion-is one of the significant' pieces of informa-i tion on the New York State Radiological Data Form, s 'w ~ ;.

. _ _ _ _ - _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ - _ _ _. causes new zones to be affected, then the protec-tive action will be modified and the EBS message will be changed to reflect the new conditions. It is important to note that efforta are continually made to anticipate future wind direction changes by consulting sources of weather forecast information. ~ 43. Q. What would be recommended if the wind shifted after an evacuation of a certain area were already un-derway? A. [Cordaro, Daverio, Miele, Watts] Once an evacua-tion of an area is started it would not be discon- ~ tinued because of a wind shift. These people would be advised to return to the area only after the energency has terminated. The additional persons susceptible to exposure.aus a result of the shift in wind would also be asked to move. 44. Q. Is the average wind speed approximately 10 miles an hour on Long Island? A. [Cordaro, Daverio, Miele, Watts] The Shoreham [ -. -FSAR, Table 2.3.2-1 (Attachment 18 to this testimo- .ny), reports that'the average windspeed on Long Is-land, based on data from Suffolk County Air Force Base taken over 19 years, is 8 miles an hour.
.m 43-s 45.- Q. . Does the wind shift quickly on Long Island? [Cordare, Daverio, Miele, Watts} As seen from A. Table ~2 of the attached study entitled " Wind Direc-- tion ~ Variability'Analycis (for).Shoreham and Other Sites,".Shoreham is considered a coastal location. Generally,. coastal. locations have lower wind variability than island or valley locations. In ' fact, even as compared to other coastal locations i studied, Shoreham has a' lower wind variation. CONCLUSION ' 46.. Q. Ple'ase summarize your. testimony. A. The protective action. recommendations contemplated. by the LILCO Transition Plan,'and the methods by which those. recommendations would be chosen, comply - with NRC.and-New York State regulations and - guidelines regarding protective actions. Selective sheltering-and. selective evacuation would be sug-i r gested only on the recommendation of New York 4 ~ State, and are. included in the Plan to provide b flexibility to adapt to a State recommendation for selective sheltering or evacuation, should the State choose to. respond to an emergency at t. .) 9 w.e-yg -'4 a, wg a b -.y e-y 9 g gkwey .p m

l: Shoreham. Contrary.to the intervenor's conten-Ltions,'the LILCO Transition Plan states clearly the
- guidelines that would be used in recommending se-
~ lective sheltering or evacuation for radiosensitive During an emergency at a nuclear power plant which results in an offsite release,~the downwind popula-y . tion may be. exposed to radioactive ~ material of three forms: radioactive noble gases, radioactive halogen gases, and radioactive particulates. The LILCO Transition Plan has procedures developed pur-nuant tc appropriate NRC regulations and guidelines, that describe how the Local Emergency Response organization'(LERO) would make a protec-tive action recommendation of sheltering or evacua-tion for a segment of the population. The recom-L mendation is based.upon conditions at the time of an accident and.the comparative' benefits that would I ' be received by' sheltering and by evacuating. The - recommendation of sheltering would provide protec-i' . tion to boaters,-transients in'the EPZ,' people in cars, and people inside buildings within the EPZ.
- K But the recommendation will not result in zero dose.
No protective action will result in zero ^ dose at any. nuclear-power plant.in New York State. or in the country, and the NRC-regulations do not Y s w l contemplate that zero dose must be achievable with protective actions in order that nuclear power plante be allowed to operate, contrary to the in-tervenors suggestions otherwise. Nor do wind shifts on Long Island require that LILCO recommend evacuation out to 5 to 7 miles in the event any evacuation is recommended. The aver-age wind speed on.Long Island is 8 miles, and the wind variability at Shoreham, a coastal location, is lower than island or valley locations. In addi-tion, shifts in the wind would be taken into ac-count by the Director of Local Response in making a protective action recommendation, and additional recommendations would be made if necessary in re-sponse to a shift in wind. The protective action recommendation under the LILCO Plan would be made for an area in the form of a keyhole. This keyhole would consist of a 360 degree area circling the plant out tx) 2 miles, plus (dep'ending upon the projected doses) a 5 or 10 mile downwind sector consisting of certain zones. Most of the zones that would be affected by an evacuation out to 5 miles actually extend to about 7 miles.

F (2) Selective Sheltering i t In general, protective actions will be taken in accordance with the EPA PAG guidelines. The Commissioner of Health may recomend protective action at projected doses below these guidelines to minimize radioactive exposure, particularly of pregnant women and children. The Selective Sheltering Option will provide this flexibility. In addition, the Selective Sheltering Option may be recommended by the State Commissioner of Health as an effective option for individu&ls who could i not be safely evacuated, if a Selective or Caneral Evacuation may otherwise be recornended. This would include individuals who have been designated medically unable to withstand the physical and/or psychological stress of an evacuation, as well as those individuals who require constant, sophisticated medical attention. The implementation and execution of the Selective Sheltering Pesponse Option will include the following: e the appropriate local health officar, in conjunction with the special facilities administrators and other local officials will make an initial detemination of the number of nonevacuative individuals and their medical care requirements. This will be compared with the sheltering and medical capabilities otherwise available to these individuals; l r e if this preliminary disposition indicates that j additional medical pcrsonnel, equipment, and/or supplies are needed, local and State officials will l assist in acquiring whatever is needed; s the local health officer will conduct an on-going assessment as to the possibility and desirability l of evacuation for those persons initially l detemined to be non-evacuative. This assessment would be based on the availability of evacuation capabilitie:, which would minimize the medical risk to those persons; and e when the projected dose rstes, as translated into dose assessment, outside any facility reach the varous protective action levels, the County 00P, through the local health officer, will notify the facility and other local officials, who will begin i the immediate impicmentation of sheltering for these persons.

b the whole body or 5 to 25 rem tc the thyroid, the prot 6ctive action response option " General Sheltering" I cay be implemented for the affected areas of the plume expos!re EPZ. This response option can also be ,f implemented, for puff-type releases of lower doses, as a precautionary measure. For higher doses where evacuation would be indicated but where evacuation cannot be implemented, bec4use of tine constraints and/or impediments to highway movement, " General Sheltering" may be implemented in lieu of evacuation. General Sheltering will be implemented by the local chief executive, upon the recommendation of the State Commissioner of Health. Instructions of Genneral Sheltering are provided for each household, school, special care facility, group quarters, and place of business in the plume exposure EPZ. These instructions are contained in the emergency public infomation pamphlet distributed annually to the population within the plume exposure EPZ population. Information of General Sheltering is initiated by the county public notification system, with explicit directions over the emergency broadcast system. Implementation can be affected for various Emergency Response Planning Areas (a subdivision of the plume exposure EPZ) or for the entire EPZ. Instructions to the public include directions to stay indoors; close and seal, where applicable, all doors and windows; and turn off air-conditioners. c Instructions on respiratory protection may be prescribed using common household items such as towels and [. handkerchiefs. The preponderance of General Sheltering will take place in residences and businesses. Levels of l. l radioactive surface contamination will be measured for l all affected areas. Areas requiring decointamination l may require temporary relocation of persons within that area. (4) Selective Evacuation For actual or projected off-site dose levels of 1 to 5 rem to the whole body or 5 to 25 rem to the thyroid, the protective action response option Selective Evacuaton may be implemented, to evacuate from the affected areas l of the plume exposure EP7 mecbers of the general public who might have a low tolerance to radiation. Specifically, this would include pregnant women and children 12 years old and under. Selective Evacuation will be implemented by the 1ocal chief executive, following consultation with and the reccomendation of the State Conmissioner of !!ealth and l with the coordination support of Director, Office of l Disaster Preparedness.

m. i 7 Ic; The entry of outside airborne radicactive cloud material is assumed to be dependent on the shelter-structure ventilation rate (forced, natural, o or both) assumin;; constant homogeneous mixing based on simple one-compsrt-br ment cutside/inside air exchange. This type of stirred-tank mixing and ventilation model has been applied in studies of the relationship between indoor / outdoor pollutants (e.g., NO, NO, CO, and 0 ) and has predicted 2 3
- nes3 concentration versus time profiles that are similar to those measured [6).
ion 3 The radioiodine fallout deposition inside the shelter is then also assumed ccusing to be dependent on the ventilation rate as well as the fallout deposition ~ r'tructurz velocity; these aspects are also discussed below. h5Cf Shelter Structure Ventilation A review of literature on ventilation rates of hcmes md buildings indicates a wide variety of air change estimates rarging anywhere from s0.1 to 6 per hour for single-family dwellings to si to 9 changes pe-hour for large structures. The wide ranges are, of course, due to the various types of construction--whether the portals and windows were
- dal, shut or sealed, and such environmental factors as wind speed, tenpera-23 Cf ture dif ferential, and humidity.
Also, in some instances, it was not clear whether air change rates included internal forced-air systems. A review by Handley and Barton (7) of published info mation on home ventilation rates resulted in their suggesting the use of the range from 0.5 to 1.5 air changes per hour for homes and 2.0 air changes per hour for modern high-rise apartment buildings. A check with commercial home air-conditioning and heating vendors seems to generally support ed those recommendations. For example, usually a 4-ton (1600 cfm) unit jr is recommanded for a 1500-f t single-family dwelling with from 10- to 2 20-percent outside air makeup. Such an installation results in from 0.8 d to 1.6 air changes per hour with outside air. Of course, some systems
- n-are installed for complete internal recirculation with no outside air
)d nakeup other than normal expected structural leakage. Municipal code requirements for building ventilation rates--for
- d high-rise office buildings, large apartment complexes, auditoriums, etc. -also seem to support the value of two af r changes per hour as 8uggested by Handley and Parton [7).
For example, a check with the ,f
r, l 8 Health Division of the Los Angeles City Building and Safety Department [ [8] indicated internal air turnover time of from 5 to 10 min depending getf on occupancy requirements, with a representative value of about 7 min-- g g with 15 percent outside air makeup as a cc.nfort-level requirement-- po which corresponds to 0.9 and 1.8 air changes per hour and N1.3 air changes diff per hour. Considering the above data, the rates for single-family dwellings and large structures are generally comparable, assuming internal forced-air systems. In the absence of forced-air ventilation systems, home and building yy air change rates would be expected to vary much more widely-as indicated This conclusica by the published data examined by Handley and Barton [7]. is also supported by observations of Yocom, et al. [9] who note that particulate pollutant levels are lower in public buildings than in homes. The ASHRAE Handook of Fundaneidals [10] points to the lack of published data on air change rates for different buildings, exclusive of air pro-vided for ventilation, when utilizing the air change method for estima-ting infiltration requires experience and judgment. Table 2 gives ASERAE Handook values that may be used with reasonable precision in making infiltration estimates for residences with dif ferent room conditions. Table 2 AIR CHANGES TAKING PLACE UNDER AVERAGE CONDITIONS IN RESIDENCES, EXCLUSIVE OF AIR PROVIDED FOR VENTILATION Ntenber of Air Changes a Kind of Room or Building Taking Place per Hour Rooms with no windows or exterior doors 1/2 Rooms with windows or exterior doors on one side 1 Rooms with windows or exterior doors on two sides 1 1/2 Rooms with windows or exterior doors on three sides 2 2 Entrance halls "For rooms with weatherstripped windows or eith srcem sash, us'e two-thirds these values. The other is the " crack method" based on measured leakage character-istics of the building components and sel.icted pressure differences.
= 9 Another approach in making air change estimates due to natural E ventilation for houses is given by Coblentz and Achenbach (11], who suggest ~ the following empirical relationship in which the air change rate is proportional to the outside wind speed and inside/outside temperature ang:s differential (i.e., without inside forced ventilation): arnal I (changes /hr) = A + BW + CAT "I where td A = air change rate for W = 0, AT = 0 (0.12 to 0.18), usion B = 0.013, C = 0.005, l**
- W = wind speed, mph,
0 ~ inside outside' Assuming the upper limit of A = 0.18 and AT = 20*F gives air change rates iSHR/E f about 0.35 per hour for a 5-mph wind speed and about 0.5 for 15-to 20-mph wind speeds, which appears to be sorewhat on the low side compered with other data reviewed. This difference, however, may be due to new, well-built houses that made up part of Coblentz and Achenbach's field samples. In contrast, measured air che.nge rates given by Megav [12] for a hut structure that were made in conjunction with radioiodine penetration experiments were substantially higher, ranging anywhere from about 2 per hour to 8 per hour (the latter, however, for open windows). An examinA~ a r tion of Megaw's data reveals an indication of' air-change-rate proportionality with outsid. wind speed that, roughly, was about 0.5 (changes /hr) per (ci/hr). This figure corresponds to only an " eyeball" esticate from Megav's data, which are complicated by variations in wind direction. Such variations would give rise to different pressure dif ferential dis-tributions due to asymmetric flow patterns, which would af fect the internal pirds air change rate. Based on the above review of air change rates that might be expected for single-family dwellings (small structures) and various building eter. Structures that could be used as temporary public shelters, values of [ f ro: 0.125 to 3 air changes per hour were assumed in performing shelter-structure effectiveness calculations. It was felt that +0.125 changes ,C
7,.. t 4 10 per hour might represent relatively " tight" structures (either large o; it I small) and that %3 air changes per hour might represent a practical por otd upper limit of structural ventilation. Of course, as indicated, cuch larger vr. lues of 6 to 9 air changes per hour have been measured; but it was felt that these values would represent extreme cases (e.g.', open windows or portals), which do not represent practical cases if good planning is assumed. Caseous Fission-Product Ingress p The extent to which radiciodine will penetrate a structural shield-b: ing facility is dependent on the gross tightness of the structure, the ventilation rate, filtration, and the chemical and physical properties of the released material and the interacting species. Ihny of these facets of a gaseous fission-product release from a nuclear accident are currently unknown, particularly for radioiodine, which leads to difficulty in accurately predicting the ingress of gaseous radioactive material into shelter structures. For the rare gases (Xe and Kr), most are willing to accept virtually no effective " structural filtering," because of their inertness and stability as gaseous forms. Accordingly, in this study no ef fective filtering action has been included in esti-mating their internal structure concentrations. For the halogens, which are here assumed to be all radioiodines, the-case is more complicated and suf fers from scarcity of experimental f work on indoor / outdoor pollutant-level relationships dealing with the ingress of radiciodine into various potential sheltering structures. The radioiodines are of course particularly important sources due to their large contribution to the WB dose, as well as being totally responsible for the thyroid dose. Three known chemical forms of radioiodine present as airborne gaseous species in power-station areas during and after handling defec-tive fuel elements are elemental fodine (1 ), hypoidous, acid '(H'0I), and 2 organic iodides (CH I). The ratio of the three species would depend 3 on the conditions under which an accidental release might take place. Elemental iodine is thought to be the primary form released from uranium-oxide fuel. It hydrolyzes rapidly in water, generating HOI, or

..r-e - /, s-i It is apparent that sta' ing in'she[ ten for soie'.-time than dat y O ' required for two air changes is' sot very effective for reducing inhalation e=posure. The 'DRF for whole body dose shotm in Table 3-1 uill becose less effective'(increhse) with increasing plu=e exposure / t time. because of the "inside-outside air exchange. This relacionship is shown in Figure B-1 for. plume durations ranging,from 0.5 to 6 hours. This effect is not dramatic for whole bcdy dose because a ) aajor portion of the dose vould be contributed from the large volume of the plume cutsida compared to the small volume inside the shelter. Therefore the shelter is a partial shield even if the concentration inside c.quals the concentration cutside. Contrary to the w' hole body DRF for cheitering, the inhalation DR7 is entirely a function of the ratio of inside ter outside air concentrations. Table B-2.shows dose reduction factors for inhalation expcaure pathways as a function of plume exposure duration for the two typically used ventilation rates. Note that for tighc structures, the iirside concentration is about half the outside concentration after 6 houra whereas for other structures, J generally typical of homes, the ratio of indoor to outdoor concentration reaches one half during the fir.se hour of plu=e e'xposcre. i The DRF in Table B-2 can be improved (reduced) by simple filtration over ;the mouth and nose using such co==on items as touels (three er more folded layers) or ha dker'shiefs (8 or more folded s O% l n 1 1 B-10 ~w

The resulting guidance derived by using this procedure is intended to assist the Director of Local Response in making a protective action decision. It is intended that sound judgment along with a personal assessment of the progress of events will be supplemented with the guidance found in this procedure. 2.0 -RESPONSIBILITY 2.1 The Radiation Health Coordinator'is responsible for advising on Protective Action Determinations based upon recommendations provided by SNPS and if time permits, an independent development of Protective Action Recommenda-I tions based upon dose projections or offsite radiological i. monitoring survey data. 2' 2 The Radiation Health Coordinator is responsit e for i relaying Protective Action-Recommendations from the DOE-RAP Team to the Director of Local Response following an independent and final review. 2.3 The DOE-RAP Team is responsible for performing protective action calculations and determining protective action recommendations using the procedures and worksheets j-contained in this OPIP or equivalent. 3.0 PRECAUTIONS IL 3.1 The dose-saving effectiveness of protective actions can L be influenced by many variable factors such as expected l duration of releases, involved population, weather condi-tions, projected evacuation times, and plant conditions. Whenever possible, these factors should all be considered prior to the recommendation of protective actions. ( Rev. 2 10/17/83 ~ . ~.. -... - - - - -. - -.. -..... -

Page 22 of 38 4- ,g Page 12 of 22 EBS SAMPLE HESSAGES (continued) 'MESSACE F - GENERAL EMERGENCY (SHELTERING) l (continued) 3, Sheltering is recommended for people in some planning zones. Sheltering is to remain indoors with all windows and doors closed. Air conditioners / heaters should be turned off, fires should be extinguished, and fireplace dampers closed. The . people.who should shelter are in planning zones (identify by zone letters and area description). People in the affected zones who are not,at_home s_hould-seek shelter inside buildings. . The 10-mile emergency planning zone circling Shoreham is roughly bounded by-Main Street in downtown Riverhead to the east, Main Street in Port Jefferson to the west, and Sunrise Highway to the south. If you live within the 10-mile emergency planning zone, you would have received monthly newsletters and other emergency [ information. h If you are located within the 10-mile planning zone and do not have 'a Shoreham Public. Emergency Procedures Brochure, public information and a map of the zone are included in a special insert of the Suffolk County Telephone Book and a more detailed map is in the lecal Yellow Book. l Posters with emergency information have been provided to motels, restaurants, gas stations, public parks, beaches, and recreational facilities. If you are not within planning zones (identify), there is no reason i for you to shelter. If you are outside the 10-mile emergency l planning zone, there is no reason to take any action. If conditions change in the future, these recommendations may change and we will inform you immediately. Once again, the Shoreham Nuclear Power Station is in a General Emergency. There has been a release of radiation into the air. It is advised that people in planning zones (identify) shelter, that is,. remain indoors with outside ventilation sources closed off. -People in the affected zones who are not at home are again advised L j to shelter inside buildings. This message will be repeated every fifteen minutes over this station unless new information is available sooner. Keep tuned to this emergency broadcast station for the latest official information.

In addition, these impaired persons may be identified in advance by the submission of a mail-in postcard furnished as part of the emergency public infomation pamphlet, distributed annually to the-plume exposure EPZ population. 4 -Implementation of Selective Evacuation is initiated by the public notification system, with explicit directions over the broadcast media. Implementation can be effected for various Fhergency Response Planning Areas (EPPA's) or for the entire EPZ. Instructions include the specific assignment of evacuatin routes and reception centers in the host area. Persons without personal transportation will be provided pubite transportation. Congregate care shelter, with appropriate medical facilities and personnel, will be .provided in the host areas. (5) General Evacuation For actual or projected off-site doses in excess of 5 rem to the whole body or 25 rem to the thyroid, the protective action response option General Evacuation may be implemented for the affected areas of the pirie exposure EPZ. General Evacuation will be impleuented by the local chief executive, following consultation with or upon the recomnendation of the State Commissioner of Health, and with the coordination support of ODP. Each County within the plume exposure EPZ has a detailed evacuation plan and maps showing evacuation routes. Evacuation areas loction and relocation centers and Congregate Care Centers are also shown in County Plans. All maps and charts are included in Site Specific Sections of this Plan. Non-institutionalized mobility impaired persons can -request transportation by calling telephone number (s) that will be announced over the broadcast media. In addition, these impaired persons may be identified in advance by the submission of a mail-in postcard furnished as part of the emergency public infomation pamphlet, distributed annually to the plume exposure EPZ population. This pamphlet also provides instructions on General Evacuaton for each household, school, special care facility, group quarters and place of business. i Implementation of General Evacuation is initiated by the i county public notification system, with explicit direction over the broadcast media EBS. Implementation i can be effected for various ERPAs or for the entire EPZ. III-43 Rev.11/83
Instructions to the public include the assignment of specific evacuation routes and reception centers. Public transportation will be provided to persons p without transportation. Special traffic control g procedures and mechanisms will be implemented to insure an efficient vehicle flow. Congregate Care Centers will be provided in host areas, including provisions for feeding, lodging, and medical care. Special care facilities, including hospitals and nursing homes, have specific evacuation procedures, including the acquiring of special transport vehicles. Each NFO has evacuation plans for onsite personnel. NFOs will coordinate evacuation procedures with local authorities to insure suitable off site locations. Nomally on site personnel will use the evacuation routes that are used by public in the ERPA where Nuclear Power Plant is located. Evacuation routes are shown in County Plans and Site Specific Sections. Evacuation from one county into another county or state will be coordinated by the New York State Office of Disaster Preparedness. County evacuation plans are included in County REPPs. Summary tables including evacuation routes, reception centers, host areas, and evacuation times are included in Site Specific Section Part II, Section I. 9 (6) Thyroid Blocking Agents Potassium Iodide (KI) in water soluble table fom (130 ~ mg) is recommended as an appropriate thyroid blocking agent for use by emergency workers, and staff and patients or inmates of facilities where evacuation is not possible or feasible. Distribution to the general population is not recommended. When emergency workers and the other persons listed above are likely to receive a projected dose of 25 REM to the thyroid, KI should be considered as a protective measure prior to receiving such a dose. l The State Commissioner of llealth is the primary health officer responsible for recommending the use of KI. When time pemits, the Commissioner will consult with appropriate local health officials. If the Commissioner is not available and time is of the essence, the affected local health officials shall be responsible for such recommendations. 6.

A There is no scale on here. 7 Is there one some place else on here? g O Look at all of the pages. A I don't see a scale. The original 3g document this came from had a scale.

25 1 conditions on Long Island, in the event any evacuation due to a radiological emergency was required, LILCO must 4 -evacdate at least a radius of five-to-seven miles around the plant."

It can't be a 9 flat answer that they should evacuate five miles all of the time. 33 9 2 It must be based on current meteorological data at the time of the accident or incident. 14 O How should that meteorological at the 15 time be applied to determine the right thing to do about 16 evacuation? A Well, during the accident, an accident ,g scenario, current meteorology is provided. It is up to 3, the decision of the decision makers to determine that they are in a situation were the winds will be light and 21 variable. 22 There is a possibility of a wind shift or 23 i 24 25 .f k'

During off hours, BHO 28 Security serves as the mechanism to provide 29 ~ notification for the on-call Duty Officer. 30 31 Since a DOE-RAP team representative will be one of 32 the primary respondents to the Local EOC to assist in 33 accident assessment, there is a dedicated telephone 34 line for his use between the Local EOC and the BNL 35 Emergency Operations Center. This link will be used 36 to coordinate DOE-RAP team members who will receive 37 direction from the Local EOC, and then subsequently 38 l used by that individual to mobilize additional 39 resources of the Department of Energy at BHO, as 40 41 required.

. 9 WIND DIRECTION VARIABILITY ANALYSIS SHOREHAM AND OTHER SITES LONG ISLAND LIGHTING COMPANY .The Shoreham site experiences wind direction shif ts, as do all other nuclear plant sites. The va riability of the wind at Shoreham and eigh t other nuclear plant sites has been studied to determine the relative magnitude of variability from site to site. This variability analysis utilized meteoro-4 logical data for each site, a computer program which determined the degree of wind direction persistance (i.e. invariability) of the data, and a manual calculation procedure which converted the computer output into a measure of wind direction variability. The results of this evaluation clearly show that the winds are less variable at Shoreham than at the other sites. Data from nine different nuclear power plant sites formed the basis for'this l-i s tudy. These sites were. chosen to represent a cross section of meteorologi-cal and topographical conditions throughout the eastern United States. The site names,-locations, and governing topographical characteris' tics are shown i l 'in Table 1. Nuclear power plant sites were selected over governsent weather staticas to. taka advantage of the high quality of instruments and data [ inherent in nuclear-related data collection programs. In order to assure that a reasonably long period of data was considered, one complete year of hourly wind direction observations was analyzed for each site. The year chosen met two criteria - the data must be of very high data recovery (i.e. very little missing data), and the data mst have been used by the utility -(and approved by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission) in the design o'f nuclear safety-related systems and equipment. In some instances, a second year of data was analyzed independently, to assess the variation of variablity from one year to another. 54 1160002-60 H0 FED FE8 0 31984 mm
2 Wind dirretica cbcarvatiens at all sitsa were made at approximately 10 meters above ground level; this is the standard set by the meteorological community and the NRC. In addition, Shoreham data from 150 f t above ground level were also studied to examine the variation of variability with height. Each year of data at each site uns _ analyzed independently. The first step in the analysis procedure consisted of using a computer program to determine requently the vind persisted in (i.e. did not shift out of) any 45' how f compass sector. The results of this analysis were then subjected to a procedure which yielded the pe rcentage of time that the wind direction shifted at least into the adjacent 45' sector (at leas t, because shif ts of more than one sector can occur within one hour). Appendix A contains a detailed explanation of this analysis procedure. The final results of the wind variability study are depicted in Table 2. Several important conclusions can be drawn from these results: 1. Winds at Shoreham are less variable than at almost every other site. 2. Winds at Shoreham are slightly less variable at 150 f t above the ground than at 10 meters. 3. Winds at coastal sites vary less than at inland sites.
- 4. [ There is no difference in. variability when different data year periods are used (i.e.,
see various sites contained in Table 2 that utilize different 1-year data periods). B4-1160002-60

l Appendix A WIND VARIABILITY ANALYSIS PROCEDURE SHORERAM NUCLEAR POWER STATION The percentage (P) of time the average hourly wind direction (determined in 45' sector' increments) shifted at least into the adjacent sector was determined from the following equation: (T-M) - (S + C) P= X 100% (T-M) where. i T = total number of houra in the year analyzed M = number of missing hours of meteorological data S = number of hours when the average hourly wind direction (determined in 45' sector increments) - did not shift into the adjacent sector, and C = number of calm hours. A computer program which' utilized a year of average hourly wind direction data was used to determine values of "M", "S". and "C" for each data base. i l The value of "S" represents the sua of the hours when the average hourly, vind direction did not shift into the adjacent sector for espisodes of vary-ing durat$on which occurred during the year analyzed. Values of -the variables for each data base are summarized in Table A-1. A-1 l. ~. _ _. _ _ _ _ _.. -,. _ _ _. -.. ~..,,., _. _ _ _. _.. - _ - - -. - - _
b To help in the explanation of how the values presented in Table A-1 were determined, a hyp'othetical day of 24 average hourly wind direction values (presented in Table A-2) was analyzed. The episodes when the average hourly wind direction did not shift into the adjacent sector (wind per-sistence episodes) and the total number of missing and calm hours are summerized in Table A-3. Using the data presented in Table A-3, the fol-loving values were determined for the aforementioned, equation: T = 24 M= 2 S = [(2x2)+(3x2)+(4x2)] 12 ("6" represents the first hour of each of the 6 wind persistence episodes. The first hour of a persistance episode represents a shift of at least i one sector from the previous hour.) ,C'= 3 P = 'J2% l l~ l t u
