DISPOSITION OF WILSON 12(b)(2) AND EDDLEMAN 213(1)

) ss.

State of Colorado )

DENNIS S. MILETI, being duly sworn, deposes and says:

1. I am presently an Associate Professor in the Department of Sociology and Director of the Hazards Assessment Laboratory at Colorado State University, specializing in those areas of study dealing with complex organizations, hazards, policy and methods (with a particular emphasis on public emergency response). A current statement of my professional qualifications and experience is attached hereto. My business address is Department of Sociology, Colorado State University, Fort Collins, Colorado 80523. I make this affidavit in response to Wilson Contention 12(b)(2) and Eddleman Contention 215(1). I have reviewed both contentions and am familiar with t

8501180475 850114 PDR ADOCK 05000400 G PDR u

LI the substance of the allegations contained in both. I have personal knowledge of the matters stated in this affidavit and believe them to be true and correct.

2. Emergencies that pose a serious threat to the health and safety of individuals in a community at large (such as the Shearon Harris plant is hypothesized to impose would an evacuation be recommended) are behaviorally in a class by themselves. Public response in such emergency situations has been a topic of investigation by social scientists for approximately 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 research record provides evidence about a wide range of public responce phenomena in the context of such emergencies.

3. A clear conclusion of this research is that such emergencies transform human behavior at both the group and individual levels. Priorities of ongoing social life shift, goals and objectives are transformed, and identifications change. The first priority for almost all people who find l

themselves in such an emergency situation becomes the l

collective safety of people within the community at large, including members of.the immediate family. This becomes their l prime goal and objective. People abandon personal forms of identification and personal interests and identify with the community at large. This fundamental change in human behavior l

u

U in emergency situations was established early on in disaster and emergency research conducted in the 1950's and 1960's. It has been substantiated in subsequent research, and consistently confirmed in contemporary research investigations.
4. The research documents that this change in human behavior has two separate, albeit closely related and integrated, consequential effects. First, people generally respond to emergency situations not as social isolates or as individuals but rather as a group. Because emergency response is largely group behavior, emergencies transform the order of a community into one in which people act towards one another in ways that are more altruistic and caring than the patterns of interpersonal interaction that form routine, day-to-day community life. Behavior that benefits the safety and well being of the collective community such as checking on and providing assistance to family, friends and neighbors, dramatically increases and behavior' based on individual or personal interests dramatically decreases. The research documents that one consequence of this innate tendency for people to respond as a group in times of emergency is for families to seek to reunite absent sound public emergency information to the contrary, and to remain united for the health and safety of the family unit. Accordingly, where

- reasonably possible, families would in all likelihood evacuate as a unit.

LT 4

5. The second consequential effect of emergencies on human behavior is a shift in values and priorities. The research documents that the value placed on material objects in non-emergency times (which is high in American culture) is deflated and superseded by an emergency value for the health and safety of the community at large. Material goods no longer have the priority and value normally ascribed to them. Coupled with the tendency of people to form into groups for evacuation, this shift in values reinforces the likelihood that families would evacuate together, where reasonably possible, rather than to separate for the purpose of protecting physical property.
6. These well understood emergency response phenomena have direct relevance to Wilson Contention 12(b)(2). This contention alleges that "[t]he 1 evacuating car / family assumption [used in the Evacuation Time Estimate for the Shearon Harris Plant] is too low -- many families would take 2 cars." It is highly unlikely, however (although it is possible in a few cases), that families would separate one member from another into different cars in a health and safety threatening situation in order to move two cars out of the EPZ rather than one. The value of property -- in this case an automobile --

would be superseded by the tendency of people to evacuate in groups, and the higher value placed on the safety of people over property. Additionally, in the absence of sound public emergency information to the contrary, most people would seek to reunite the family prior to evacuation, time permitting.

l ,

L

T Accordingly, separated families with two useable evacuation i vehicles would most likely meet (at their residence if possible) and evacuate as a unit in one vehicle. Thus, the assumption that families would evacuate in one vehicle from the Shearon Harris EPZ is a reasonable assumption supported by three decades of research concerning public response to emergency situations.

7. These well understood emergency response phenomena are also directly relevant to Eddleman Contention 215(1). This contention alleges that the assumption in the Shearon Harris Evacuation Time Estimate that persons will evacuate from their home is unrealistic for certain times of the day because many persons will not be at home. However, the assumption used in the Evacuation Time Estimate for the Shearon Harris plant that the permanent population of the plume exposure emergency planning zone will evacuate from their places of residence is supported by the available research concerning public response to emergency situations. In the absence of sound public emergency information to the contrary, most people who are away from home would, upon receiving initial notification of an emergency, travel to their residence to reunite with other family members prior to actual evacuation.

i

8. In summary, in light of well documented public emergency response phenomena, families will in all likelihood seek to unite (in the absence of sound public emergency information to the contrary) and to evacuate together in one vehicle in order to maximize the health and safety of the family as opposed to evacuating in separate vehicles for purposes of preserving personal material goods.
