In that professional capacity, I have been involved in the development of the offsite emer-gency capability for the Shearon Harris plant as well as the Catawba, McGuire and Brunswick nuclear plants.
Through the Division of Emergency Management, I have directed the State's response to more than 650 cases in the last year 8411060498 841102 PDR ADOCK 05000400 Q

A currentJstatement of my professional quali-fications and experience is attached hereto.
My business address is.116 West Jones Street, Raleigh, North Carolina 77611.
I have personal knowledge of the matters stated herein and believe them to be true and correct.
I make this affidavit in response to Eddleman Contention 57-C-3.
2.
The fixed siren system -- with 62 sirens located throughout the Harris plume EPZ -- will serve as the primary public alerting system in the~ event of an emergency at the Harris plant.
Upon activation, this siren system is de-signed to warn immediately_all areas within the EPZ.
How-ever, in all four counties within the EPZ, vehicles with flashing lights, sirens and/or public address systems till be immediately dispatched upon the activation of the fixed sirens, to provide additional public warning by driving predesignated routes within the EPZ.
3.
Zones within the EPZ have been subdivided into subzones within which the road mileage has been measured.
The roads have been assigned to county agencies, and the routes planned out.
Estimates have been made of the time needed for notification,'and all routes are being driven to confirm these estimates.
The estimates include the time needed' for emergency personnel to reach their duty posts to begin the notification process, based upon actual 4,.-
0 t
experience.
In addition, it has been determined that there are sufficient vehicles and personnel to perform the mobile alerting in a timely manner.
This conclusion applies to both daytime and nighttime (1 a.m.
to 6 a.m.)-conditions.

_g_
l
completed in approximately 30 minutes, from the time of activation of the fixed siren system.
17.
In addition to the predesignated personnel as-signed to perform mobile alerting, each of the four counties has identified additional personnel (with equipment) who would be available to augment the designated mobile alerting personnel, if necessary.
The designated units in Wake Coun-ty could be augmented by-resources from other county fire departments and rescue squads outside the EPZ.
In Harnett County, the designated units would be augmented by municipal police departments, the Sheriff's Department, and volunteer fire and rescue people from outside the EPZ if needed.
The designated units in Lee County would be augmented by'addi-tional resources from the Sanford Police Department and the Lee County Sheriff's Department outside the EPZ.
In Chatham County, the designated units would be augmented by resources from volunteer fire and rescue services outside the EPZ.
18.
If public officials determine that on'ly a portion of the EPZ needs to be alerted by the fixed siren system and mobile alerting, the warning times stated above could be re-duced by concentrating the identified mobile alerting re-sources in smaller operational areas.
19.
The flashing lights, sirens and/or PA systems of mobile alerting vehicles passing by the homes of EPZ resi-dents -- particularly when combined with the activity of other residents who have already received notification 1.
1 (turning on the lights in their homes, perhaps preparing to evacuate, etc.) -- would alert most members of the public who might not have heard the fixed sirens.
Following the initial fixed siren and backup (mobile alerting) warnings, law enforcement and other official vehicles would be in the area to ensure complete evacuation or other protective ac-
~
tion,-and to provide security.
They will be instructed to check premises where no protective action activity is evi-dent.
20.
In summary, the fixed siren system serves as the primary public alerting system within the Harris EPZ, and is designed to immediately warn all areas within the EPZ.
Nev-ertheless, each of the four counties within the EPZ has in place a comprehensive plan for mobile alerting to provide additional (backup) notification to the general public.
In each county, fire, police, sheriff's department, and/or res-cue personnel have been designated and have agreed to drive i
l l __
a predetermined routes, using vehicles with flashing lights, sirens and/or public address systems to alert 'the EPZ resi-dents.
This mobile alerting system -- combined with the public activity in response to it
- would' provide adequate notification to the general public within the EPZ.
