WITH REGARD TO LEA 14: (M4D LEA-12) Please discuss " training" provI333 T5r 355531 pers6hnel.

Has all school training been completed?

If not,'please provide a schedule indicating when outstanding training is to be completed.

Please clarify the role played in such " training" by representatives from PEMA, ECI, and the; County Offices of Emergency Preparedness.

Agswer With regard to the training of school personnel, See Answer to Discovery 34, Interrogatory No. 25.

PEMA reviewed course plans of instruction and met with l Applicant to discuss the proposed training program (November 17, 1983 with-Dr. Donald Taylor, PEMA Director of Training and Education).

Energy Consultar.is developed the course plans of instruction, lesson plans, training aids and conducted the training-sessions.

c Lesson plans developed by Energy Consultants were submitted to the county emergency management agencies for their review and approval. In many instances, county emergency management personnel accompanied and introduced Energy Consultants' training L

staff.

The Chester County Department of Emergency Services

-distributed and compiled results of a training evaluation program l'

L

' designed to measure the knowledge gained by trainees.

F

Plans of instruction for the school training program were previously provided to LEA's representative and are being made available for inspection and copying in Discovery 35, Item 1.

representative and is being made available for inspection and copying as Discovery 35, Item 2.

Because school planning is based on the premise that schools would be evacuated in one lif t, the training program did not discuss multi-trip evacuation scenarios for schools.

Bus drivers were instructed, however, as described in Sections VIII.D.4.c and VII.D.4.d of the Bus Driver Lesson Plan, that drivers could be asked.to enter or reenter the EPZ to evacuate members of the general public.

Interrogatory _No.

3 Would adequate supplies of KI, dosimetry, and communications equipment be available during a sheltering and/or a multiple trip scenario?

How and when would these be distributed?

Answer In context, Applicant construes this interrogatory to relate to school personnel.

School personnel are not designated as emergency workers (See Annex M,Section II.N. of the County plans) and, therefore, are not routinely designated to receive dosimetry or KI supplies.

County plans, however, recognize the possible need to provide dosimetry and KI to drivers in some circumstances, i.e.,

for reentry to evacuate the general public.

Annex M, Appendix 3, Section A.18 of the Chester County plan provides an allotment of dosimetry and KI for transportation staging areas, as does the Montgomery County plan in Annex M, Appendix 3, Section A.29.

In a telephone conversation between John Long of Energy Consultants and Robert L. Reber, Director of Berks County Emergency Management Agency, on July 10, 1984, Mr. Reber confirmed the Berks County policy that if circumstances develop so as to require bus drivers to reenter the EPZ, Berks County would make the county reserve supply of dosimetry and KI (Annex M, Appendix 4, Section A.1) available at its transportation staging areas.

Distribution of dosimetry to emergency workers occurs at a Site Emergency classification and is described in Annex M, 1

Appendix M-2,Section II. A of the Montgomery County Plan; Annex M, Appendix 3,Section II.A of the Berks County Plan; and Annex M, Appendix 2,Section II.A of the Chester County Plan.

In a sheltering scenario, school children and supervisory school personnel would be treated like any other member of the general public who do not receive dosimetry or KI.

Primary communications between the counties and school districts is by' commercial telephone.

Radio communications (RACES or ARES) are established with school district offices at a Site Emergency classification as a back-up to telephones -(Montgomery County Plan, Basic Plan,

'Section VII.D.3.j and Annex N,Section VI.C.8; Chester County Plan, Annex B, Appendix 3,Section II.B and Annex N,Section V.C.7; and Berks County Plan, Annex B,Section IV.I.3.c)

County plans also call for the assignment of at least one radio-equipped vehicle to each school in the event evacuation is required. This is described in Annex N,Section VI.D.3 in the Berks and Montgomery County Plans and Annex N,Section V.D.3 in the Chester County Plan. -

InteII99atggy_No. 4 Does PECO plan to present any witnesses regarding the willingness of teachers and school staff to perform their assigned roles in sheltering, evacuation or multiple trip evacuation scenarios?

Does PECO have any information regarding the willingness of school staff to remain with school children while at a host school or mass care center?

ODsge5 See Answer to Discovery 34, Interrogatory No. 1.

Information regarding school staff willingness to remain with students at host schools or mass care centers is based upon the plans developed by the school districts which outline that procedure. This is described in Section V.D. of the school district plans (Sections D.l. i, pages 6114. 4 (o) and (p) and D.2.d, page 6114.4 (r) of the Owen J. Roberts Plan).

Copies of these documents were previously provided (Discovery 34, Items 4 through 16).

Applicant is aware of a school staff survey conducted by the Owen J. Roberts School District which suggested not enough staff l

would be available for that purpose. Applicant's knowledge of this survey is based upon correspondence provided in Discovery 34, Item 30.

Additional correspondence is provided for inspection and copying as Discovery Item 35, Item 3.

l

l To Applicant's knowledge no other school district, or school, has indicated school staff " unwillingness" to remain with students at host schools or macs care centers until relieved of that responsibility.

All school districts and private schools drafted plans outlining this procedure, and they intend to implement the plans in accordance with the plan procedures, paIticipagts_1g_Answeg_ggepagation V.

What procedure is used if a teacher changes his/her mind about volunteering, or for some reason decides to leave the area?

(and no longer works at the same school) Who do they notify if they no longer want to be considered a volunteer?

Is the teacher or school staff member expected to find a replacement volunteer or does that slot remain open?

Answer It is Applicant's understanding that school evacuation would be implemented with whatever minimum staffing requirements were identified by a particular school at the time of emergency.

School plans are drafted to implement evacuation using a minimum of school and staff.

This " emergency staffing" requirement is determined at the Alert stage of the emergency, as described in the Concept of Operation section of school plans, for school in session (Section V of all plans except Owen J. Roberts which is Section B.2.h on page 6114.4 (m)).

Copies of the school district plans have been previously provided.

(See Discovery 34, Item 4 through 16.) Therefore, no pre-identification of volunteer teachers is required.

Applicant understands that this approach is being taken by all schools except the Owen J. Roberts School District.

The Owen J. Roberts School District has chosen to survey staff to estimate the number that would be available in a radiological emergency, has identified an alleged shortfall of teachers, and passed this staffing shortfall to the Chester County Department of Emergency Services to be satisfied from L-l l U

..Interrogatory _No. 9 What is the staff / student ratio considered to be adequate to remain with children in the event of a radiological emergency.

Please differentiate between a sheltering and evacuation

! scenario.

Answer The-staff / student ratio adequate for emergency situations, such as a radiological emergency 2 : Limerick, is an assessment to be made by the administration of each school or school district.

Information furnished to Energy Consultants in the course of the planning process by school administrators generally has

-indicated that any ratio that results in effective group management-is considered adequate and would be similar to ratios

. maintained for large study halls, assemblies, or field trips.

There is no difference in staff / student ratios for evacuation or sheltering scenarios. - -

Int!EIstateILNg._}3 Discuss PECO or ECI's response to the concerns raised by Upper Perkiomen School District about whether or not " training" was adequate. Answer Training as described in Discovery 34, Interrogatory 25, was provided to the school staff of the Upper Perkiomen School District on February 17, 1984. Some time after this training, Alton W. Frey, Coordinator of.. Upper Perkiomen High School telephoned Energy Consultants and was directed to Robin Hoffman-Wenger, Training Coordinator. Mr. Frey requested information on training requirements and questioned whether training conducted at the High School was adequate. Ms. Wenger responded initially by telephone and later by a followup letter, providing a copy of appropriate pages from " Criteria for Preparation and Evaluation of Radiological Emergency Response Plans and Preparedness in Support of Nuclear Power Plants," NUREG-0654, FEMA-REP-1, Rev. 1. Ms. Wenger noted that the same program had been presented and found adequate by the other school districts in the Limerick EPZ and schools within the EPZ of other fixed nuclear facility sites. Energy Consultants also brought the matter to the attention of the Montgomery County Office of Emergency Preparedness, which subsequently met with representatives of the Perkiomen School District to discuss the matter..

Intg55gneg5 lng.,M WITH REGARD TO LEA-27: Please provide any information available to PECO or ECI about the status.of emergency response planning for Spring Mountain i House, Camp Hill Village School - (West Vincent Twp. ), and Camp Hill Special School (East Nantmeal Twp. ). Are these facilities included in their respective municipal plans or are separate plans being developed for them? Please provide any information available about arrangements for: (a) training of personnel (b) transportation assistance in the event an evacuation is called for (c) suitability of these facilities for sheltering, including the length of time under various possible scenarios that sheltering would provide adequate protective action (d) arrangements for communications with these facilities during a radiological emergenc~y (especially with the county and/or the municipality involved) With regard to (b) above, please describe the number of vehicles necessary where they will be dispatched from, how long it will take those vehicles to arrive at their. designation, and who will provide drivers for these vehicles. Answer Notification of the three facilities is covered in their respective municipal plan implementing procedures. The Spring Mountain House receives notification from Upper Salford Township as provided in Annex A, Section 6, of the Implementing Procedures on page A-3. The Camp Hill Village School receives notification from West Vincent Township as provided in Annex A, Section 5 of the Implementing Procedures on page A-3. The Camp Hill Special School receives notification from East Nantmeal Township as i provided in Annex A, Section 4 of the Implementing Procedures on

page A-3. Copies of these documents have been previously provided to LEA's representative and are being made available for inspection and copying in Discovery 35, Item 5. A request for training was forwarded to Energy Consultants through the municipal emergency management coordinator of West Vincent Township for Camp Hill Village School on July 2, 1984. Energy Consultants contacted both the Camp Hill Village School and Camp Hill Special School to discuss training the same day. Training as requested was conducted on July 13, 1984. A school administrator / school teacher training program appropriate for the facility was presented in which the instructor discussed nuclear power plant technology, radiation, emergency planning principles, and school staff responsibilities. Mr. Bernard Wolf of the Camp Hill Special School stated that training would not be requested by his facility at that time. A survey for transportation requirements was conducted of the three facilities. Spring Mountain House has not indicated any transportation requirements. For the other two, transportation assistance is being arranged through the respective municipal emergency management agencies. Residents from Camp Hill Village School and Camp Hill Special School have responded to the public needs surveys distributed by the counties and are included on the lists of residents requiring transportation assistance. As stated in Attachment G the West Vincent Township and East National Township municipal plans. The names of the individuals making up

those lists are on file at the municipal EOCs and are not provided in circulated plan drafts. Specific names, addresses and telephone numbers of individuals making up the lists are

considered confidential by West Vincent Township.

Any individual who needs transportation may request that his name be added to the' list. - The number of vehicles to evacuate those without required transportation is tabulated for the entire township, not just these facilities. This information is provided in Attachment P of the municipal plans. Copies of these documents have been previously provided to LEA's representative and are being made available for inspection and copying in Discovery 35, Item 6. Vehicles will be dispatched from the transportation provider. For the Camp Hill Schools, Chester County has not yet assigned specific resources to its townships. This information will be provided when available. In Montgomery County, Annex I, Appendix I-2, Tab 3 assigns ~two buses to Upper Salford Township from Transportation Services, Inc. Current responses from Spring Mountain House to the public needs survey do not indicate that any ambulances will be required.

Interrogatory No. 21 Who is responsible for snow removal on state roaf.s during a radiological escrgency? Provide any information that will be used by PECO to demonstrate that this responsibility has been assigned and will be carried out in the event of a radiological emergency. If state employees are involved, does their contract require them to carry out their regular work duties in the event of a radiological emergency? If yes, please be specific. If not, how can it be determined that there will be adequate personnel to assure that snow removal will not impede any evacuation. Answer The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDot) is generally responsible for snow removal on state roads. During a radiological emergency, PennDot provides clearance of obstacles, including snow, on main evacuation routes, regardless of whether or not they are state roads, as provided in Annex E, Section VII.A.22.c, page E-29, of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania Disaster Operations Plan. (See Discovery 34, Item 19.) Applicant has no knowledge of PennDot's contractual arrangements with its employees. The State has a vast inventory of such snow removal equipment and personnel in southeastern Pennsylvania, and even more statewide, which could be used on a priority basis in the event of a radiological emergency. Severe winter weather conditions i would be considered by PEMA in determining whether evacuation of the plume exposure EPZ would be undertaken. l : I

Provide any letters of agreements that have been completed to cover arrangements for snow removal. If none are required, please explain why. Answer As provided in the Answer to Interrogatory No. 21, PennDot resources are not restricted to state roads in a radiological emergency, but will provide snow removal on all main evacuation routes. See Answer to Interrogatory No. 20 with regard to letters of agreement. PennDot resources will supplement existing municipal contract arrangements for snow removal. It is Applicant's understanding that such contracts do not distinguish between radiological emergencies and non-radiological emergencies. l l l l l-

Interrogatory No. 23 When will training be offered to tow truck drivers, gas station attendents, and prsonnel involved in snow removal during a radiological emergency? If not, why won't it be? Are these personnel considered emergency workers? If there any length of time that.they would be expected to carry out their assigned duties during a radiological emergency? Have they been told this? When and by whom? (For example, if a gas station agrees to remain open to provide fuel supplies, how long do they have to remain in the EPZ before they can evacuate?) Answer Tow truck drivers, gas station attendents and snow removal personnel are not emergency workers as defined in Annex M, Cection II.N of the County Plans. Therefore, special training is not required. They are at considered emergency workers because any task that they might perform on a voluntary basis would be conducted within the same time frame as an evacuation of the general public, that is, they would not be required to remain in the EPZ any longer than the evacuating public, or to perform any task which would expose them to a radiation condition that is not l applicable to other members of the general public (See Discovery 34, Items 1, 2 and 3). Applicant has made no contact in this regard with any tow truck drivers, gas station attendents, or snow removal personnel L 'within the EPZ.

Answer The primary purpose of support agreements for the provision of services and resources in the event of a radiological emergency is to identify sources as accurately as possible and to confirm an organization's or agency's willingness and ability to provide that support. None of the agreements purports to impose liabilities on support organizations or-agencies for failure to provide a service. No agreements drafted to date in Annex T of each county plan provide penalty or liability clauses. (See Discovery 34, Items 1,- 2 and 3.).

Interrogatory _No._32 WITH_ REGARD TO_ LEA What-is the basis for assigning fire company personnel to the task of " route alerting"? Have firemen been surveyed to determine how many are willing to participate during a radiological emergency? Answer Fire company personnel are emergency workers thoroughly familiar with their local fire protection jurisdiction and already have the notification, communications, and mobilization procedures and equipment needed for prompt, effective response to emergencies. .This is demonstrated on a daily basis. As the preferred unit to perform this function, fire company personnel are used throughout the Commonwealth for route alerting during a radiological emergency. Should there not be enough fire company personnel to perform this function, police or emergency management personnel would be assigned. No formal survey of fire company personnel has been conducted by Applicant. However, Energy Consultants planning staff (accompanied by county emergency management personnel in many instances) have met with fire companies to discuss their assigned route alerting responsibility, to review proposed route alert sectors and receive their input and concurrence. At these meetings, only one fire company indicated unwillingness to L l

4 perform route alerting in a radiological emergency. A mutual aid fire company outside the EPZ would perform route alerting in this instance,_if necessary. Applicant is also aware that LEA surveyed fire companies within the EPZ. The survey results have not been made available to Applicant. ! ^

IDl!3[ggapg{y,No. 34 What other responsibilities have been assigned to firemen during a' radiological emergency. Provide specifics by municipality, as well as for firemen coming in to assist from outside the EPZ. In the event a municipality finds that it does not have sufficient personnel for route alerting, how will additional assistance be provided? By who? OE8W'I In addition to route alerting, some fire company personnel, as stated in Annex 0 of the municipal plans, are requested by municipalities or counties to assist with traffic control and to conduct radiological monitoring. Fire company jurisdictions do not always follow municipal jurisdictional boundaries, hence route alterting assignments will be provided according to fire company, not municipality. When available this information will be provided in Annex 0 of the municipal plans. (Discovery 35, Item 6) Assignment of fire company personnel to decontamination monitoring stations and centers appears in Annex M, Appendix 2 of the Berks County Plan. (See Discovery 34, Item 1) Similar assignments in Chester and Montgomery Counties will be added to their plans. Fire personnel from fire comp &nies outside the EPZ have no designated route alert or traffic control responsibilities. Any shortages in route alert personnel would be handled through the county communications centers by dispatching mutual aid fire companies per standard county communications center procedures.

Interrogatory No. 36 Provide any information that will be relied upon by PECO to demonstrate the amount of time necessary to carry out route alerting as a notification procedure in the event of siren failure. Be specific as to whether the information refers to coverage of the entire EPZ (such as might occur in the event of a loss of power) or isolated siren failure. Answer The proposed route alert sectors are based upon siren location and the ability of a vehicle to cover the entire sector at a speed of 10 to 15 miles per hour within a 45 minute period. The proposed sectors are being discussed with the respective fire companies to confirm that sectors are appropriate to these standards. As noted in the Answer to Interrogatory No. 35, the designated sectors will be made available as Attachment E of the municipal plans.

The report, " Evacuation Time Estimates for the Limerick Generating Station Plume Exposure Emergency Planning Zone" (Final Draft, HMM Associates, May 1984) (See Discovery 34, Item 20), summarizes the estimated EPZ evacuation time under various scenarios required by .NUREG-0654, Rev. 1. (a) Traffic generated within the Valley Forge National Park and King of Prussia areas was not specifically considered in the evacuation time estimate study for the following reasons: o King of Prussia and all but a small portion of Valley Forge National Park lie outside of the plume exposure emergency planning zone. Traffic..

e i generated within that portion of the Park in the EPZ is negligible. o vehicles evacuating from the EPZ through the Valley Forge National Park and King of Prussia areas would I travel along Route 363 south, to County Line Expressway, to Route 202 (DeKalb Pike) north to I-76 west, to Route 276 east. South of Trooper Road in West Norriton, this roadway corridor is a limited-access facility. Access to and from this corridor L, only available at Route 23 (Valley Forge Road), 1st Avenue, Route 202, Warner Road, and I-76. For the evacuation time estimate study, it was assumed that traffic control would be provided to control access at these intersections. (b) Peak traffic volumes associated with the Marsh Creek State Park were included in the evacuation time estimalc study. Accordingly, the impact of traffic congestion in this area has been evaluated in the Applicant's evacuation time estimate study. The Marsh Creek State Park 1as specifically considered in Analysis Areas 10, 12 and 14'of the evacuation time estimate study.

h An w7r 41.1 Upper Merion Township is not within the EPZ to the best of Applicant's knowledge or to the knowledge of the Montgomery County Office of Emergency Preparedness based upon a telephone conversation with Mr. Sam Tabak of that office in July 1984. 41.2 See Answer'to Interrogatory No. 41.1. 41.3 See Answer to Interrogatory No. 41.1. 41.4 See Answer to Interrogatory No. 41.3. 41.5 To Applicant's knowledge, the Upper Merion traffic study has not been considered in evacuation plans. See Answer to Interrogatory No. 41.1. 41.6 The Applicant has no information on how many vehicles travel daily into the King of Prussia area. 41.7 Applicant has no information on the number of vehicles terminating in the King of Prussia area for work or school. 41.8 Applicant has no information on the number of commuting vehicles that travel through the King of Prussia area daily. 41.9 Discussions between HMM Associates, the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation and the Montgomery County Planning Commission indicate that peak hours of traffic in tho arca occur from 7:00-9:00 am and 3:00-6:00 pm. The peak hour flows in'the area are not relevant to the l evacuation time estimate analysis for the reasons summarized and stated in Answer to Interrogatory No. 39. 41.10 Discussions between HMM, the Pennsylvania Department of

Transportation and the Montgomery County Planning Commission indicate that the peak shopping days are typically Fridays and Saturdays.

41.111 Evacuation of the Limerick EPZ would not necessitate evacuation of the King of Prussia area. 41.12-See Answer-to Interrogatory No. 41.1. Any emergency planning done would be a municipal decision and prerogative. 41.13 See Answer to Interrogatory No. 41.1. 41.14 The Schuylkill Expressway is partly closed for repairs. Applicant has no knowledge as to the. schedule for completion of repairs. 41.15 Applicant has no data on traffic blockages for the Schuylkill Expressway. 41.16 The map does not indicate evacuation east on the Schuylkill Expressway because no reception centers or mass care centers are located along that route. It is not L-

Enticipatcd thnt tha Schuylkill Expressway will ba blocked to evacuation traffic. 41.17 Traffic will enter the Turnpike through the toll booth areas. Vehicles will not be required to pick up toll cards. Some traffic may be routed around booths to promote traffic flow (based upon a conversation between Robert Bradshaw of Energy Consultants and Mr. Ted Charney, PEMA Bureau of Plans and Preparedness on or about October 19, 1983). l 41.18 Chester County evacuation routes direct evacuees to reception and mass care facilities established by Chester Ccunty which are reached by Route 202 south. There is no intent, to Applicant's knowledge, to block Route 202 north. 41.19 No reception or mass care facilities are located along the turnpike.

Only a small portion of the park, which liec within the EPZ, would be evacuated. School plan procedures for non-classroom activities, such as field ^

trip 2 which may be conducted by tha risk schools in arecs outside of the EPZ, call for notification of activity supervisors to take students to the designated host school during a sheltering or evacuation advisory, as described in Section V of the school district plans (page 6114.4 (p) and (r) of the Owen J. Roberts plan). Parents would pick their children up at the designated host school. Schools outside the EPZ would return students to their regular schools. (See Discovery 34, Items 4 through 16.) 41.23 It is Applicant's understanding that the vehicle numbers (4222) are not based on PennDot traffic counts, but on the population of the risk area, assuming three persons per vehicle. It is also the Applicant's understanding that the four-hour rate is based on the maximum capacity of the .particular highway to handle a certain number of vehicles per hour. 41.24 Applicant has no knowledge of how the 9499 figure contrasts to normal traffic rates. 41.25 See Answer to Interrcgatory No. 41.22.
