.a ENCLOSURE Population Density Estimate Table 1 attached provides a summary of the projected residential

. population by sector for the areas within the 10 mile EPZ for LPlant Vogtle. laut projected population is for the year 1987 and was prepared using the methodology described in Appendix 2A of the

~-

VEGP FSAR. .For the purpose of the projection, the resident population within the Savannah River Plant was assumed to be zero. Provisions for protection of the personnel within the Savannah River Plant are described in the SRP Responsibilities section of this enclosure.

Savannah River Plant Responsibilities

~

Staff level discussions with SRP have been in progress for some time to' define the SRP/ Plant Vogtle interface. SRP has indicated that they will assume the responsibility for implementing any needed protective

. measures on Federal Property in South Carolina. They estimate

- implementation of any. protective measures can be accomplished within thirty minutes. These agreements and definition of responsibilities will be formally documented with the Vogtle Emergency Plan.

.o Evacuation Time Estimates  ;

l Evacuation time data'was collected in 1980 by State of Georgia, civil

. Defense Division staff. This report (copy attached) was developed pursuant to an NRC request (reference letter from B. Grimes, 12/26/79) and followed the format indicated in that request.

A few comments are appropriate to clarify the potential usefulness of this data.

1. ' The total population data (2540) is consistent with current projections. (see population density data earlier) and thus the time estimates are still valid.

2. The notification times (from 0.5 to 3 hours3.472222e-5 days <br />8.333333e-4 hours <br />4.960317e-6 weeks <br />1.1415e-6 months <br />) should be disregarded since a prompt (15 minute) notification system is required.

3. The evacuation times were generated for quadrants not sectors and thus are conservative estimates.

A more current evacuation study is planned and will be submitted with the general Emergency Plan Revision.

30316 27 February 1980 Mr. T. E. Byerley Manager of Environmental Affairs Georgia Power Company P. O. Box 4545 Atlanta, Georgia 30302

Dear Mr. Byerley:

Enclosed is the evacuation data for the ten mile emergency planning zone surrounding Vogtle Nuclear Plant. With the exception of less than two square miles of uninhabited river swamp in Richmond County, the entire Georgia portion of the EPZ lies within Burke County.

I trust that this information will satisfy the requirements set forth in the Nuclear Regulatory Commission letter of December 26, 1979. Additional assistance on this matter and all future requests for state support in off site Radiological Emergency Planning should be directed to this department.

EVACUATION TIME ESTIMATE (AFTER NOTIFICATION)

FOR THE V0GTLE NUCLEAR POWER PLANT The ten mile EPZ was divided into sectors in accordance with the NRC report-ing fonnat. See the attached map.

The estimated times for a general evacuation of the population located within the ten mile EPZ are given in Table I. The following data is referenced to the numbered requirements set forth in the NRC reporting format.

Item 1. See Table I.

Item 2. a. The Girard Elementary School with a normal population of 300 is located within the 5-10 mile sector. According to local officials, the school could be evacuated rapidly and within the time listed in Table I.

b. The town of Girard with an estimated population of 350 could be evacuated within the time listed in Table I.

c. No other special facilities are located within the ten mile EPZ.

Item 3. See Table I.

Item 4. The Waynesboro-Burke County Civil Defense has an approved emergency operations plan which provides for warning and evacu-ation.

Item 5. a. There are no insurmountable obstacles to evacuation in the ten mile EPZ. Hilly, dirt surfaced roads in the SE sector are slick and occassionally impassable during heavy rain, but the problem areas can be avoided. This situation is reflected in the times listed for the " Worst Case Evacuation."

b. The town of Girard with an estimated population of 350 would not require any special consideration for evacuation.

Item 6. The data was developed by the local Civ'il Defense Director with the assistance of two members of the CD organization, one of wl.ich resides within the ten mile EPZ. First hand knowledge of the subject crea, plus experiences with real and exercise emer-gency operations within the county, provided the background upon which this data is based.

All of the times given for notification and verification are based on the assumption that one to four mobile teams would be employed in the operation. It was further assumed that the #

actual ' evacuation would take place by private vehicle and Burke County school buses' traveling their normal routes to pick-up persons requiring public transportation.

The local Department of Natural Resources ranger will be re-sponsible for the notification and evacuation of recreationists on the Savannah River.

-2. - Time requirements:are cumulative. -That is, the times required for notification, evacuation,

.and confirmation for. the five to ten mile sector assumes that the two and five mile sectors are included. q

3. Sportsmen are not included in the above table. The Savannah River flows through the entire twenty mile diameter of the EPZ and-it'.is impossible to estimate the number of boaters and

- fishermen likely to be present in any.particular sector. It .is estimated that as many as 300 sportsmen could be on the river on a good day. It would take approximately two hours to travel the affected stretch of river for-notification, and up to three hours to evacuate the river.

Confirmatior. would likewise take approximately two hours.

' 4. . Approximately. 300 of the listed population within the 0-5 mile distance of the NW sector are construction workers.and their families which will leave once the plant is completed.

Emergency Planning Zones (EPZ)

The Plant Vogtle Plume Exposure EPZ consists of an area 10 mile radius, centered on the plant, with three regions excluded from the detailed j planning process per 10 CFR 50.47(c)(2). These areas, indicated on the attached map, have been excluded from detailed planning primarily due to the absence of any resident population. The areas in Richmond

~ County Georgia, and Aiken County South Carolina-(Sector R) have no resident population and there appears to be minimal, if any, resident population in Barnwell and-Allendale Counties, South Carolina (Sector F). Planning to assure protection of transient populations in these areas will be accomplished through formal agreements with the appropriate State and/or County governments. -The State of South Carolina is in agreement with this approach as documented in their letter to the State of Georgia (January 17, 1984 - attached).

j Mr. Billy Clack, Deputy Director Georgia Emergency Management Agency P. O. Box 18055 Atlanta, Georgia 30316

Dear Mr. Clack:

On January 10t! we held a meeting with representatives of Georgia Power Company regarding the ten-mile Emergency Planning Zones for the Vogtle Nuclear Power Plant.

Due to the distance of the plant from any South Carolina residents, and the low number of those actually living within the 10-mile zone, we have agreed to exclude this small South Carolina area from any formal emergency planning at the state level.

We will, however, be including an appendix to the affected counties' emergency I

operations plans regarding the Vogtle Plant. As a result of this we are requesting

that if there is an emergency at the plant which reaches the Alert or higher stage, GEMA notify our of fice. Our 24-hour number is 803-758-2826.

We will then notify SC DilEC and the af fected counties, as needed. It is our under-standing that Georgia Power and DOE / Savannah Riter Plant will be signing an agree-ment of mutual assistance. We will then help coordinate any technical response on our side of the river between DilEC and DOE /SRP. '

We look forward to working with you on this. If you have any questions you can I direct them to me or to John Bland, our coordinator for Area 5 of South Carolina.

Sincerely,

, Joshua P. Moore i Director JPM:JBB:cws cc: Mr. William 0111nger, Georgia Power Mr. lleyward Shealy, SC DilEC Mr. John Herrick, DOE /SRP Mr. Bobby Mauncy, Coordinator, Aiken DEP Mr. liarold Awbrey, Director Allendale DPA Mr. lierman Wald, Coordinator Barnwell DPA Emergency Preparedness Division
