DENNIS S. MILETI, being duly sworn, deposes and says:
1.
I am presently an Associate Professor in the Depart-ment of Sociology and Director of the Hazards Assessment Labo-ratory at Colorado State University, specializing in those areas of study dealing with complex organizations, hazards, policy and methods (with a particular emphasis on public emer-gency response).
A current statement of my professional quali-fications and experience is attached hereto.
My business address is Departrent of Sociology, Colorado State University, Fort Collins, Colorado 80523.
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.

Public response to emergency information and warnings.
y; Lof. impending disasters has been a topic of investigation by so-cial scientists for almost three decades.
Many studies have been performed on the subject in a variety of emergencies stemming from geological, climatological, and technological phenomena, and have been documented in a vast body of emergency literature.
This research1 record provides evidence about a wide range of emergency warning /public response phenomena, including public notification and ccmmunication between members of the public in an area at risk.
3.
A clear conclusion of this research is that people generally seek out additional information upon receipt of an initial warning, before' acting on that warning.
The end result is that, historically, many people in emergencies have first learned of emergencies from other members of the public.
There are two reasons why this is the case.
First, emergency warn-ing/public response is an evolving process; and, second, people generally do not respond to emergency warnings as individuals
-- rather, emergency response is largely a group activity.
These two fundamental generalizations were established early on in disaster and emergency research conducted in the 1950's and 1960's; they were substantiated in subsequent research, and they have been consistently confirmed in contemporary researci investigations.
4.
The initial response of most people to a warning of an impending emergency is to seek out more information, and/or r
D$
~
engagetintadditional communication with others.. This need to
-engag'e in' a confirmation process is perhaps one of ~ the best documented phenomena-in warning / response research..For most
. people,1 hearing aEvarning does not automatically'and instanta-neously' lead to protective' action.
.Rather, hearing a warning is typically ~followed bylformulating an understanding of that.
warning;7 understanding is followed by believing; believing is.
'followed by personalizing the' warning; personalizing is fol-lowed by making a decision about what to do; and the decision is followed by actual protective action response behavior.
'Thus, this step-by-step sequence (which can be completed quickly) involves engaging in a process of confirming the warn-ing information that is first received.-
5.
Confirmation of warning'information can and does occur in a variety of ways;'for exampl~e, people may turn to different radio or TV stations to hear the warning several times, check with friends and neighbors to ask if they heard the same message, and talk the situation over with others.
One consequence of the behaviors in which people engage as they seek confirmation of warning information is that they actually can and do become part of the warning dissemination effort, al-beit informally, through social networking.
In other words, in the event of an emergency at the Harris plant, the seeking of confirmation would lead people to contact others who might or might not as yet have learned of the emergency. -
1 6.
People' rarely, if ever, respond to emergency warnings of an impending disaster _as social isol'ates, and most people in l
- most-emergencies ~do not respond as individuals. ' People gener-ally respond to emergency warnings in. groups'. 'Accordingly, be-cause emergency: response is largely group behavior, emergencies p
transform the order of a community'into one in which people act l
towards one another in ways which are more altruistic and-caring than the patterns of' interpersonal interaction which form routine, day-to-day community life.
Some exemplary conse-quences of this are that, in an emergency, neighbors, friends and family -- and even total strangers -- check on one another and offer assistance if it is needed.
One obvious result of this tendency of people in emergencies to form groups and to offer aid and assistance to one another is that it causes peo-pie to be in communication with other members of the public who might not as yet have learned of the emergency.
Thus, for ex-ample, people who have been awakened in the night and received notification of an emergency at Harris generally can be expect-ed to notify neighbors whose houses are still dark and where no one appears to be stirring.
7.
Finally, the high level of activity whi.ch would be associated with an emergency at Harris would have a strong
" ripple effect," generally alerting members of the public to seek additional information about the events taking place, even if they had not been directly warned by either the fixed si-rens, the mobile alerting system, or another member of the L.
=
a public.
In other words, the activities of other resi' dents.who have already received notification (turning on the lights in
~
4their homes, perhaps preparing to evacuate, or even the stream of' traffic driving out.of-the EPZ).would awaken (if necessary) and alert-most members of the public who may not yet have been warned, and cause them :to seek additional information about
~
~
what is going on (for example, by turning on the 1n/ or radio, or by talking 1to neighbors).
8.
In summary, emergency'public warnings elicit communi-cations between members of the public who are the target of of-
'ficial emergency warnings.
People rarely translate warnings into personal protective actions without first seeking and en-gaging in confirmatory communication; rather, people draw into groups, and consult with and warn others.
These phenomena are natural, predictable responses to emergency warnings, and can be relied upon in emergency planning as a component of public notification in the event of an actual emergency.

_gency a er s mem ers o.t e_ general public, even'_if they are

h k.-
{.
lnot directly warned-by.either the official warning systems, or by another member of the public.
I am confident that-these general principles of. emergency warning /public response -- well established through decades of research and investigation --
would be applicable in the ev'ent of an emergency at the Harris plant.
