{{#Wiki_filter:- 1 i i THE LEAGUE CF 'wM2: VOTERS OF GREATER YCE EVACUATICN STUDY UPDATE i t APRIL 17,1981 I r The League of *4ccen Voters of Greater York found during their ..n study cf nuclear power during the fall and wihter of_ To_0-80 that, 7 j among cther things, evacuatien planning in general,as.vell as 1ccelly had been neglected as a vital health and safety measure fcr the i _a r ec=nunities surrounding Three F.ile Island Nuclear Station. The ::RCis l i own Special Inquiry Group reviewing the accident stated evacuation planning =ust be considered as an independent means of prctection for citizene living near a nuclear plard ever and above the engineered safety e system designed te citigate an accident and prevent releases. f j It was because of this obsevatien we voted to cenduct a further l study this fall inte the present status of evacuation planning fer Ycrk Ccunty, particularly as it applied at the county, mundelpe.1. and i scheci district levels. 'rfe alsc reviewed broadly the rcles of the various depe.rtments of state. i i 'a'e first met in Septe=ber,1980. Laid out were the plans to de the l, four reviews and then see to it that the public be given maximum cpper-t 3 \\ tunities to learn abcut the plans as we felt ultimately public awareness i would incretae public input and study and ultimately plan effectiveness. 1 Secause cf time problems we decided to do just an everview cf state palnning, i i give seme censideration to the county plan and focus mere en the municipt.1 1 and school district levels. There were twelve members en the committee, approximately three members to each subecemittee formed to cover the abcve reviews. Phene 1 ( i !810511036 4 I I

~. i t t i 2 i cr in-person interviews were conducted with representatives frem i e FD'l and. ether state agencies; the NFt0; FD'l; the Bureau cf F.adiatien i Frctecticn of the Fennsylvania ;EF.; Eline and Knepf; Maryland Departrent I r I of health; as well as with the emergency management cocrdinater, er if y he or she didn't exist, a local official frem each of the it.,unicipalitier ) within the 10-r.11e radius; ?andy Currv, whc is the York Ccunty Energe.cy l Managerent Cocrdinator) his predecesser; June Snyder, who is the Eealth JI-s I and Medical'Cfficer fcr Ycrk County; a prisen warden; as well as ethers. l __ u We met regularly and repcrted en our subecmtittee progress. Ultimately, when all our data was eclieeted and reviewed, we ccepleted cur su c.ary and presented it twice, en Neve ber 19,.ic80, and en January 7, l 1981 te the I.eague and te the interested public. J

  • /e decided te do an update cf S nater part cf cur study tr' is spring.

i 1 We cencentrated en repeat interviews with the representatives of the f municipalities and cf the scheci districts, and in additien, bus ec panies, i and selected felle:-ups at the ccunty level. The fc11oving is a sumn.ary of our update. MUNICIPAI.ITIES Table /. sucsarizes many of the areas reviewed. 1 SI?. ENS In general mest still have inadequate siren systens but sc:'.e have heard infer: ally or by rumor that additienal enes are to be installed seen. Specific nu=bers of sirens and areas of placement are net known. The Manchester Tevnship cecrdinater felt 10 new sirens veuld not adequately notify his temship because of the interstate and other large theroughfare traffic ncise as well as ncise frem its large nu=ber cf industries and aisc interference secondary to the undulating topography of the township. A few

i 1 3 l cther ecer.dd.natcrs were concerned abcut obstructions te hearing the sirens such as air conditioners, adverse winds, TV's and radies. A few I (Lewisberry, Gcidsberc) were entirely satisfied with their present systems. l

2. ANNUAL. EXES.CISE

- ~ ~., Virtually all cf the plans (except fcr Gcidsb'c?c) called fer ne' ~ _j-[ i i exercise of their plan at all. -,.r

3. FC T ASSID IC LICE Mr. Curry has centacted some of the ccordinators to get total numbers cf energency verkers, apparently fer potassium iodide dese estimates i

needed. 'Where and if deses wculd be stcred was not made clear. The rest j t had no new knowledge cf plans for pctassium icdide. l f

4. RADIC S, TELEPP.CNES. MCNITCF.E 1

a) Radies i Concerns were again raised abcut inadequate radicec=municatien. It became apparent that many municipalities were geinE to be relying en f i the ecunty fire frequency 3390 alene. Chief Schaeffer of Manchester Tevnship felt this was ene of the biggest problems, predicting *ene big l t j am. He pointed cut that with even =uch more miner incidents, such as woodfires they had recently, that the frequency quickly gets "vcice-locked" --where, with 2 cr 3 people speaking at once, they cut each other out with a i the overriding of the voices en the radio. He wculd very =uch like to obtain his own township radiofrequency to impreve the chances of intra-township i i communicatien during a general emergency but can't acquire funding fer I this. Fairview has had its evn township radiofrequency for years and its coordinater feels this will amply aid ecm=unication. Newberry is i presently attempting to raise funds within its township for more radies t l 1

l I ? I ( ) 4 and Goldsboro, too, is anxicusly seeking 6-7 additional pertable radies te speed up evacuation. Most of the municipalities, in general, \\ feel they need mere radies. L b) Telephcnes i L i .e Again, phone jams were anticipated with mest4 the municipalities; j putting in additional lines was ancther expense for the tevnship er i i

l bereugh.

Newberry township feels additional phenes is a high pricrity [ ~ _s., need. The coordinater expressed a vorry abcut hew difficult it wculd j be to reach by phene many of the emergency personnel if, for example, j 6 an accident occured in the middle cf the day, as many verk far away, and he j t

  • wculd have ene h'eck of a time getting them together."

He criticized j i the county's placing its telephene number en the evacuatien brochure frent as he predicted many veuld try to call that number fcr infermaticn at a l t time lines veuld be mest needed to centact and line up emergency persennel. I i The ccerdinater fer Mt. '4cif reported that Pr. Curry urged him te get i licensed han radic operatcrs lined up because of anticipated radic and l t CB jam.ing. f

c. Mcniters i

Gcidsbero is trying to drum up one thcusand dellars fcr a CPM moniter and is hoping to get another pertable ene. Many have no change in j i the number of their menitors. East Manchester Township has a ludlum monitor but Mr. Grim, its cocidinatcr, who is one of the few who have taken the femal monitoring course from Penn. State, has requested it be removed as he cannot afford the gas and time it takes him perscnnally te read it each day. l l

5. '.G.ING VITH SCHCOLS I

I As noted in Table 3 of the first su=ary, there are 2 municipalities f (Geldsbero and Lewisberry) which have no schocls to deal with. 5 Varringten L

5 and Fairview neted no change in the involvement of the schoci districts in planning. The Dever representative stated the schecis are taking full respcnsibility and has dcne no further werk with them. The Hella cecr-cinater felt eccperation and ecmmunication with the Easter. schecis was no problem. The E. Manchester eccrdinator stated the, Nertheastern, i_ Superintendent infer:ed hit there was a plan but it's', futile because [. ~ ~ ~ parents will ecce and pick their children up. He understeed the State Beard of Educatien vill eut eff aid if the school districts de net hand in ~" a report er a plan and be asked, "Why can't the school districts be made to talk to eccidinaters," as he, aleng with the cocrdinators ef Mt. Velf, Manchester Eoreugh, and York Haven have eceplained of lack of eccperaticn with the Nc-theastern Superintendent in cocrdination of planninc effcrts. Newberry's cocrdinater felt West Shcre was en tcp cf things.

6. S'eE'_TEF.P3 Many felt sheltering was dependent en the type and length cf th+

accident. If an evacuation was ultimately necesse.ry, they felt preliminary sheltering was not a goed idea. Mest have dene no werk specifically dealing with sheltering and view their efferts at planning right new to be directed sclely to evacuation. The Newberry cocrdinater noted that FD'.A had sent hit some sheltering information in its newsletter but, because he's so busy with everything else, he hasn't had time to read it. 7 PUBLIC Ih?CFRATION UOTICE Abcut half of the municipalities were ecpying and sending out the county's evacuatien brochure to their evn ecnstituents with many, if nct all, dcing it at their own expense. Varringten intends te draw up an additional flyer to be passed out at the time of an emergency cnly. Goldsbero has its own flyer as does Ierk Haven and Fairview vill prebably make up one at scme future time.

(. 1 i d 1 6 i The county brechure refers to,.Othe reception peints designated j by your local officials," *If ycu do not have transpcrtation, ge to ene of the pick up peints in your municipality,P "If you are physically unable to leave your heme, contact your local emergency management cocrdinater'-- \\ all dead-end references if no other more local in[okation has b'een giv.en ~ i ~ eut prior to an accident. The brochure also does, net fc11cw the guidelines set forth in NUREG-0654 Revised. u

8. EQUIPMD:T Most municipal coordinatcrs need some forms of equipment bcth large and small to effectuate the plan. A few were satisfied with what they have, at least as it reked to evacuating that pertion of their municipality that lies within the 10 mile radius. It was the general feeling that neither the equipment ner mendes fcr it veuld be cer.ing frem any cther 1evel than their own...if there.
c. A.F:l'LCCE M:CTIC!:S It is the ambulance which carries the county centrol radio in Lewisberry and vill, therefore, serve as a main source of com=urdeation with the county. East Manchester has ne ambulances and plans to rely on Manchester, understanding they'll be second in line. York Haven is similarly strapped and planning to rely en Newberry or Manchester.

Other ecordinators envisioned their ambulances to function as mess cf evacuating nen-ambulatery residents. The Hellam coordinater has listed priorities, with the latter first followed by helping victims of stress, then car accident victime. Newberry assumes the police cars vill remove the invalids and ambulances vill serve mere fer accidents that may occur in the evacuation process. Manchester Tcvnship plans the same as the latter for its municipality and expects June Snyder's Fa. Lept.

.c i 7- + cf Health group te previde ambulances for the nursing henes and homebeunds. i In general, then,- there is scre confusion about their rcles at times. In addition, the cocrdinater of 1:ewberry Tcunship raised eencerns ateut pricrities. He pointed out his township has 2 ambulances. It has a i list of 10 invalids. He venders hev ene veuld mak~e%e choice between ~~ - t hauling the invalids and victims in an accident (s),en I-83 fer instance. x,. And he further questiened where the victims wculd be taken. He vendered, l ~ j s.s teo, if additienal ambulances that might be requested fren elsewhere veuld get cooperation from their volunteer club drivers if these drivers have to risk expcsure to radiation. He peinted out, lastly, if volunteer club drivers de ecme frc= ether ecunties, it vill take them a significant time to arrive.

10. BU,SSIS A'O FUS: RIVERS 1

l A few of the eccrdinators fcund their greates cencerns lay with the evacuation cf the children in their ec=munities. The Lever tevn manager, fer instance, is convinced parent Mll igncre school evacuatien plans and vill make every effort to obtain their children directly frcm school, resulting in traffic problems and panie. (This was the feedback we received frem many parents when we presented our study). The ecer-dinators of East Manchester, Mt. Velf, Yerk Haven and of Manchester Screugh have all been given that same impression by the Superintendent of their mutual seheci district. The coordinator from Manchester Tevnship felt availability of the busdrivers was not to be counted on. He pointed out that they drive part-time and, and not being paid to stay by the phone, they do shoppinE, farming, etc. and generally are net necessarily available at a mcment's nctice to drive the schoolchildren cut. He gave the example cf a fire recently in Central High School while schoc1 was in sessicn. i

s.. 'VG1 l l 8 'The decisien was made to send the children hone but they eeuldn't get i t held ' er the drivers te bus them. They even called to a firehall te ptsrsunde .I ene cf the firenen'tc drive a bus. He queried, "Here, a small fire in :ne { i cheel, what's it going to be like if there's a majer disaster.like TMIP'. L s The Newberry eccrdimter raised deubts abcut.whethenths driiers. wet?d C a i stay to bus if there was a rapidly cecuring radiation. accident (this is _., i f ~ discussed further below). He.said that though h'e expected sufficient ' "! i I numbers of busses in *n'est Shcre, he wasn't sure who veuld go get them. He feels somect this community would be reassured knowing their children i i were taken out but others vould be demanding their children be breught here, I concluding, "There are mass differences on what should be dene and net done." The ru= nary of the scheel district subec=nittee update vill pursue j i this later. )

11. CCWIT!ET f

I F Lewisberry and Hellan eccidinaters felt confident about getting the r cetmitment te stay and perfer: assigned duties frem their emergency per-l 6 sonnel (with Hella: specifically addressing a 10 mile evacuatien plan enly). The coordinator frem Mt. Wolf felt he had a respectable level of ecmait=ent i i frem Lis pecple as did Mr. McCc11u= from Fairview. On the other hand, i t to quote the coordinater frc= East Manchester, "It ain't gonna verk." l He noted only 5C% ef his volunteers 'showed up for a meeting recently and feels even less would ahow up for an accident. Mr. Lankford of Dever i r questioned as noted before, "How do we mandate that a man stay here te werk when in his mind his first responsibility may be his family?" A repre-l s sentative fre: Cenevago Tevnship expressed worries about getting eccittents fer a radiatien accident specifically though not fer a general accident. i i l

F L.. ] l l: - 9 Both the Newberry and Geldsbero cocrdinators stated, depending en the type and severity of the accident, they would take their families cut first as they were their first pricrity and they felt their police and firemen veuld leave as well. Mr. Hamsher, the FMC in Gcidsboro, felt half cf the helicoptar pilots available to aid in his area vou14 partieipate. Pr. Ferry, the cocrdinator in Newberry Township, said if given a gradual situatien (similar to the 1979 accident) many of his pecple, including the ~ s.r busdrivers veuld stay and help. But if there was a more immediate danger, they would head scuth with the rest of the population. He felt this was the most severe problem by far in the evacuation planning. If an accident happened suddenly, " people veuld be in a pure panic just trying to get away," he observed, and he cited examples of what actually occured during the ccurse of the March 28th accident as part of the basis fer his cbservatien. He interviewed his firemen and was given the indication fron them that the majority veuld not necessarily stay--that their families were first. They would take them away and cnly then return te help. Mr. Ferry stated he wouldn't return if the area was irradiated and doubted many would. He i predicted no one vould sit and direct traffic, that it, "would be like suicide." He feels peeple are foclinE themselves if they feel volunteers vill stay. "Being a Christian, I have to tell the truth, evacuatien won't verk," and he added, "It's ridiculeus fer anyene in their right mind to say, 4e've got a plan,' that it's hu=anly possible." All of the coordinators interviewed are volunteers. FEMA vas and still may be requiring formal training for its emergency management cecr-dinatcrs; it also discourages coordinatcrs to also be the fire er pclice chiefs er other day-te-day municipally responsible people such as that. Virtually all have other paying jobs, seme within their municipality, some Most ecemented en the difficulties involved in developing a plan net.

t 1 10 with all that entails in their little spe.re time. Mr. Gassvint cf 7arringten Township fe'.t they veuld have te have sc=ecne paid fulltime to have everything devn pat.

12. BRp/2R A fc11cv-up interview with Maggie Reilly oAthe iureku cf 1-f Radiation Protecticn was conducted. She neted that the previcuely broad-sided van is back in operatien and the mobile lab is neu eensidered

11' SCHOOL DISTRICTS b (Nevember 19, 1980 Summary) A group of us interviewed 8 school superintendents. Cf the group, 6 had scheels entirely within the 10 mile radius, and the ether 2 i were within the 2C mila radius. The schoci district is responsible fer developing and implementing precedures to transpert all scheel children ~ (if schoci is on sessien) cut of the risk area. They;are te be taken cut ,]-[ j in busses and each bue is to be acecmpanied by a ttacher. Most ruperinten' dents -h e weren' t certain this latter requirement wouldn' t be a problem; many teachers s aren' t aware of that rule. The superintendents are in charge of notifying i bus drivers, of establishing routes of travel, reception centers, estimated i, - times and are to see te it that parents receive an information scurce i explaining all of the abcve. In Table 4 (Nov 19,1980 Table of Schcol Plans for York Ccunty), we list 9 questions posed te these superintendents and J their responses. i To summarize, there are many more busses needed than available presently. Netificatien of drivers by phene may be difficult. In ecst cases, at this point in time, the school districts were planning to go to areas distinct frem these planned by York County. Three majer problems cropped up in the interviews: % Cecidinatien in Plan Develoement i This was particularly noticeable in the northern portiens cf the ecunty where school districts everlap with Cumberland County. Involvement of the schools in planninE was felt essential by thesuperintendents. They were told to develep. their plans only-- withcut any give and take. They fear they may plan ene neve only to be told later to change it. There is no mention anywhere of plans to care fer children in nursery schools er day-care centers.

2. Ceeunication During an Accident i

There is genuine fear the phone lines vill get ja z.ed. We i knew this occured during the accident last year. Cne superintendent \\ veuld like a lead time of 1 to 2 hours before the pubile is netified in order to get his children cut.

3. Transcortaticn

~ t The number of available drivers is questiened. Ve found apprcximately 75T of them are vemen, many with young children. It may I be difficult to have busses return fer a second run if necessary because of lack of drivers, their cooperation, or their being able te fight exiting f traffic. The roultes to be taken include small main county er heavily-I travelled main routes. Most expressed hopes there vould be drills. I Lastly ve vill mentien some of our bread cencern: that were raisa' I during the study. The plans are based en several assu ptiene which might be calle d into questien:

1. key persennel vill be available, including coerdinators, bus drivers, I

{ alert teams,. fire and policemen, etc.

2. key personnel vill be trained
3. unmet needs such as monitoring, tranepertatien and communicatiens l

equipment can be obtained er purchased elese where to be useful at the i time of an accident. I i Ve are concerned people cutside the 10 mile radius vill try to e ' evacuate viyh cthers if an evacuation of only 10 miles is called for. i t - At this point in time, effective thyroid prephylaxsis may net be I i able to be distributed in a timely basis.

Tron this we formulated questions which we posed to cirht superintencents j[ _ [ or their designees. The Plan spacified that superintender.ts were responsthie _- i

  • for fornule. tine plans eo it~was lorical to speak with"th'ese individuals.

"'i Wa conducted follow-up interviews with the six superintander,tr or their ~"# designees whose schools lie within the 10 mile radius or part of whose district lias within it. This was to determine whether th,re had been any substantiva 4 chances in their plans or whether there had been any further contact between i tha. and officials since our original interview in Novembar. 2;estions and a tabulation of their responses are listed in lable f In additier. we nada talephone interviaws of bus contractors who lease busas te some districts. The questions and responses are tabulated in Table ! Ihare have been no najor changas in the plans of any of the schools. Some additional contacts have been nade and some additional information has bear l given to the schools. But the problems sited in our first sannary remain: i 1 (1) transportation, (2) connunications, (3) co-ordination. 1he issue of responsibility for private school childran is an important We found that there has been no direct contact between private school one. i directors and public school superintendents and no coordination of effort in devising a plan to retrieve these children in the event of a serious energency. In sone cases superintendents have assunec responsibility to take private school children with public school children to the avacuation 3ite. But this has not been connunicated to the private school directors.

1 s 95 i 1 April 2b, 1931 i Those who were contacted expect the districts which c.ornally delivers th. children to retrieve then as usual. Some superintendents have said they would attenyt to retrieve their own district children attending privat-schools in districts other than their own. Others have said that..this l ) ~ - would be bnpossible. Without sone guidelines and coordination, nass con ' fusion could be the result. - .z.-- Reports which riva totals of students to be evacuated and available buses u to transport then and which include only the buildings of a school district i within the 10 mile radius are deceptive. The reports irnore the fact that some children vtese school buildine is outside the 10 mile radius live within it.

.*o indication is given in the recent Farsons Brinkarhoff report than any thought has been given as to where to take these children.

Such reports also icnore the pheno.enenknown a s the " shadow phenonenen" which is described in the Georraphical Review, January 81, p.7. This article states that nany people from a much larrer area than is official 2y declared t an evacuation zone will attenpt to evacuate. For example, the :;orthern School District which has a formal evacuation plan, but whose schools lie outside the 10 mile radius, has told us they would take their children to the reception center beyond the 20 mile zone. Therefore the shadow phenomenon 7 must be considered in the planning process because of inevitable traffie congestion and confusion resulting from such responses to energency notification designed specifically for the 10 mile radius. i At no time has anyone polled bus drivers concerning their willineness I to drive during an enerrency, or their willingness to go to unfamiliar W o* 4

96 districts durinr a severe emertency. Some superintendents and conteactore have talk d with their drivers and have the impression that they would report for work. But some had evacuated early durine the last crisis and there is no guarantee that enough drivers would be available. The time factor in contacting drivers is significant, depending upon - e the severity of the energency. Even on snow er.ergency days it ta'<es from ] 1/2 to 1-1/2 hours to contact drivers. On such days,*%en obvious bad ~$ weather can ha reasonabl*/ anticipated, drivers usually leave numbers where they can be reached. Mobilization of drivers from far away for an unanti-cipated energency could take nuch longer. Our firures diffar sienificantly fro. others that have been reported. 1his is because we have cotten then from the individuals directly involv d in planning for the safety of children. These persons have been told to develop a plan for evacuating children and have received varying amounts of information and raidance. Our conclusions are that t.here is a serious need for coordination and cor.nunication between the school districts and the counties, in sor.e cases between the counties thenselves, and between the private schools and public schools whose responsibilities to the children are not clear. And all plans must then be connunicated to the public so that parents will know exactly what is being planned for their children's well-being. k w

1i A SUkk A9Y OF THE LEAGUE 0" N05.EN VOTERS OF GREATER YORI STUDY CC EVACUATION PLANNING OF YO9F COUNTY FOR TEI One of the results of a study done last year on nuclear t power and TRI by the Learue was a proposal to look at York Count. evacuation plans as tney pertain to a nuclear accident at the [ plant at + 1ddle town. We saw the NRC's own study of the TEI accidentthat both the Kemeny Commission and found that in-depth safecuards incorporated into the desirn of a reactor are no+ sufficient protection for the public as was assumed prior the ti. arch 1979 accident. ~~ ~ Because of the immensity of the project,, _.-~. *, we decided to a-$ ' establish a fundamental idea of the role of the NRC and FEL.A ( Federal Emergency Management Agency) and then limit our study to a broad view of the state's plans and more concentrated examin-ations of the county, municipal and school district plans. 23C and FEMA The N7C is requirine all evacuation plans for areas (ncompassinc an approximate 10 mile radius around nuclear plants 1 to be submitted in some form by January, 1981. They're supposed t to be able to be implemented by April, 1981 and public notifica-tion systems have to be in place by July, 1981. The utility has the responsibility to see a plan exists. Guidelines for utility, state and local planning were drawn up by the '!1C and YL. A to rather and put forth as interim in January of this year: wi th a few clarifyinr chanres these are now the standarda by which evacuation plans will be judged adequa te or inadequate. Thourh what will te judged acceptable conplinqce with these standards is a bit fuzzy, it is mandated that without approval of these plans, the NRC will not issue now a lictnse to a nuclear electric facility. Existing reactors will, apparently be given a period of about 4 months to correct any deficiencies. t rives them a different role."FL A'J recent involvement in the evacuation planninr issue A regional assessment committee will receive a particular plan in its draf ting stage initially. It will then critique it, as is deemed necessary. and return it with suggestions as often local officials preparing the plan,When felt appropriate by the state and it is again submitted as final. At that point, the regional committee will observe and evaluate 1 a full scale exercise of the plan involving all key personnel. i Following this, a public meetin i all for critizism, suggestions,g is suoposed to be held - open to etc. of the plan. The specifics regarding the TMI area are not known yet. After all of this, the 1 FEkA committee decides whether or not the particular plan meets the standards set forth by NRC and FEMA. Nhen the NRC receives a plan from a specific reactor it will look to the FEXA recional assessment committee for

site, their conclusions and will count them heavily in its decision to issue a license on their findinc.s.

Obviously, with 75 reactors and a relatively small staff, paperwork delays are inevitable.

Releases can occur as'early as l one-half hour and can continue for several days. They can travel t 5 miles in 15 to 20 minutes,10 miles in 1 to 4 hours. We listed the most important r,uidelines below, mainly for state and local plans: e i STATE i ~ ~ ._.. i The state plan is geared for an approximate 10 mile fI radius and &ssumes about 500 will leave on its own.

They then engage in environmental sampling, supported as much as possible by the.use of,mabile vans. containin6 machinery that can interprate on,the spot t readings tcken on moni tors placed at different locations in the radii around the reactor. Other monitors need to be taken to a central lab for interpretation and certain ^~7 radioactive product measurements need to be sent to distant labs for analysis. _a BoR7 notifies FEMA to give protective action guidelines and will recommend sheltering, evacuation, thyroid prophylaxis, respiratory protection. The Bureau of 9adiological I rotection also notifies the Department o f Ar.riculture. federal laboratories, and the Bureau of Water Quality Manar,ement (important concerning drinking water). There are probleme with personnel and equipment. Althourh there are plans to increase the staff, imminent success is not expected. Of the present 13 health physicists around Pennsylvania, 6 may be cut back. There is one nuclear en6ineer for the whole state. Th e;. would like to have 4 or 5 but find that their salary hardly competes with those offered by the utilities and even the NRC. The one functioning. mbbile van they've had was recently broadsided t and is temporarily out of commission. A second van and its machinery are secured but not put together. The Bureau has approximately 35 monitors around TI..I in addition to those placed by the utility, the IFA and others. 1.9rk CO.unty l an_ This plan, which has been approved by the county commissioners, encompasses a 20 mile radius. This is partly due to the fact that during the 1979 accident, the key county personnel were called several times during its evolution - called first for a 5 mile plan preparation, then a 10 and then later a 20 mile plan. Responsibilities are assigned to several groups. Notification to the county would be by PEKA. It would include an executive grou made up of the emergency management coordinator (Mr. Randy Curry)p the commissioners, operations group chief and a public information officer. It also involves a situation analysis group which consists of radiological and agricultural agents. Also included in notification are the superintendents of the school distric ts and the municipal coordinators for the 14 municipalities within the 10 mile radius. The emer6ency management staff includes, also, fire and chief personnels it also is supposed to have established liasons with the state of Maryland for various needs.

We fo und that virtually all of those who had a plan beinr, worked on were using a guideline drawn up by a group hired by General Fublic Utilities called Eline and Knoff, from Harrisburr,. Most had not even heard of NUREC 0654, the N9C/:EEA guidelines. Nr. F.noff stated NUREG 0654 was used in the development of his plan but it is hardly reflected in it. The follow-ing lists a few important things found. (see Table 3) We got many other observations when speaking with the emergency coordinators and town manarers. Some, not all, com plained of minimal or nuperficial county interaction in the development of their plans. Many had not received a recent copy of the County plan and weren't sure, for instance, where the county planned routes.

Also, the emergency coordinators are all volunteers.

They all work other jobs, at times away in another township, so are not always immed-iately available. According to the state plan, they are supposed to receive special training but very few have. Interpretation of thic requirement is supposedly being considered by the attorney general and it may lean toward county coordinators only. Some municipalities are short the local people needed to fill out alert teams, etc. Trained personnel to read radiation monitors are scarce at this point in time. Most places stock no radioprotective clothing. One cannot always get committments to stay and help for this kind of evacuation, a problem probably related to the fact that a radia-tion accident is qualitatively, essentially different from a more tangible situation like a flood. To quote one town manager, "How do we mandate that a man stay here to " work

  • when, in his mind his first responsibility may be hic family?"

This concern was expr,essed by many we spoke with.

i l Study of Fvacuation planninr__of York County for TLI (Face 6) i Some feel l'EEA has remained too aloof in aiding plan develop-ment. Another problem is that some names and numbers are not up to date or are extremely difficult to reach as far as key personnel. are-concerned. 7adio frequencies planned for emercency communica-tion too easily get jammed and may be less than useful in ' a radiolocical accident.

It is the utility ' responsibility to se'd adequate noti fira- -e tion means exist. As we saw in Table 3, only 3 out of 14 have an adequate siren syster today. It is not clear how the caps will ba filled and there is no question this will cost someone a cignificant amount of money. One town manager mentioned that emergency monitore I (something resembling a clock-radio to be placed in the homes or workplaces of certain key personnel) micht be substituted. If tric ic trua, new problems arisa because these require being turned oni someone muct be there to hear them: and have no backup auxiliary pow +r like found in sirenc. SCHCCL DISTRICT 3: A rroup of us interviewed 8 school superintendents. C f th e ) croup, 6 had schools entirely within the 10 mile radiuc and the other l 2 within the 20 mile radiuc. The school district is responsibile for developine, and implementinr procedures to trancport all school children (if school is in secsion) out of the risk area. They are to be taken out in buces and nach ous is to be accompanied by a j teacher. kost superintendents weren't certain this latter require-l ment wouldn't be a problem; many teachers aren't aware of that rule. The superintendents are in charge of notiRying bus drivers, of establishin6 routes of travel, receiption centers, estimated times and are to see to it parents receive an information source explaininr j all o f the above.

In most racec, at this point in time, the school dictricts were planning to go to areas distinct from thost planned by York County. Three major problems cropped in in,the interviews. 1. Coordination in plan development. This was particularly noticeable'in the northern portionc of the county where school distric ts overlap with Cumberland County. Invohement of the schools in plannir.c was felt ec:ential by the cuperintendents. They were told to develop their planc or.ly - without benefit of any give and take. They fear they may plan one move only to be told later to chanre it. There is no mention anywhere of planc to care for children in nursery schools or day-care centers. 2. Communication durin the phone lines will get jammed. g an accident. There is genuine fear We knew this occured during the accident last year. One superintendent would like a lead time of 1 o 2 hours before the public is notified in order to 6et thtee children out. 3 Transportation. The number of available drivers is questioned. We found approximately 75% of them are women, many with young children. It may be difficult to have buses return for a second run if necercary because of lack of drivers, their cooperation or their being able to fir.h t exitinr, traf fic. The routes to be taken include small main, county or heavily travelled main routes. Most expressed hopes there would be drille. ~

a' l 2 3tudy of Evacuation Planning _of York County for TMI (Pa6e 6) i Lastely, we will mention.some of, our broad concerns that were raised'during this study. I i -The plans are based on several assumptions which migh t be called into question. 1. Key personnel will be available, includIni coordinators. Tl ~ ' bus drivers, alert teams, fire and pol'igemen,. etc. 2. Fey personnel will be trained. i 3 Unmet needs such as monitoring, trans'po'rta tion and '-7 communications equipment can be obtained or purchased elsewhere to be' useful at the time of an accident. l 4 Parents will not panic and try to get their children at school. -We are. concerned people outside the 10. mile radius will try to evacuate with others if an evacuation of only 10 miles is called for. -At this point in time, effective thyroid prophylaxis may not be able to-be distributed in a timely basis. cunds needed to obtain the elements needed to effecuate the plan are probably not going to be cenerally available. -These plans do not deal with a worst case accident. -kr. C urry, the Emercency Kanagement Coordinator for York i C o un ty, is very overextended.. In addition to his job as coordinator, he has been put'in charge of Veteran's Services. A study estimatine coordinator needs in relationship to population would call for 4-6 people for our area. .gupplement Inforna tion calculated from planni 7elocation Canters
