Announce-ments are made over the legally designated EBS network. EBS announcements at tne State level are made only wnen they are applicable statewide. Priorities for EBS announcements are specified in law; first priority to tne Federal government, second priority to county governments, and third priority to state governments. Restriction on use of EBS announcements does g
not preclude appropriate use of news papers, radio and tele-V vision for puolic information statements.
5.
Emergency Management - The judicious planning, assignment and coordination of all available resources in an inta9 rated program of prevention, mitigation, preparedness, response and recovery for energencies of any kind, whether from enemy attack, man-made or natural sources.

7.
Emergency Planning Zone (EPZ) - A generic area defined about a nuclear facility to facilitate offsite emergency planning and develop a significant response base.
It is defined for the plume and ingestion exposure patnways.
a.
Plume Exposure Pathway - The area surrounding a fixed nuclear facility wnicn potentially is subject to radiation exposure as a result of an incident involving radioactive material emanating from the facility. Such potential exposure could involve:
(1) whole body external exposure to gamma radiation fron the plume and from deposited materials, O.
and (2) inhalation exposure from the passing radioactive plume. The EPZ for tnis pathway consists of an area of V.
approximately ten miles in radius around the fixed nuclear facility.
(Tne exact size and configuration of eacn plume 2
Uraft 4 l
r rm exposure pathway EPZ for the respective fixed nuclear c
(' ')
facility in Pennsylvania were determined in relation to
~
local emergency response needs and capbilities as tney are affected by conditions such as demography, topograpny, access routes, and jurisdictional boundaries.)
D.
Ingestion Exposure Pathway - That area surrounding a fixed nuclear facility wnicn, as a result of a release of radio-active material, is a potential source of exposure through the ingestion of water and foods, such as milk or fresn vegatables originating there. The EPZ consists of a cir-cular area of 50 miles radius around tne fixed nuclear facility.
8.
Host Senool - Predetermined schools outside the pit.me exposure patnway EPl to which risk school students are evacuated, at which they remain under risk school officials's supervision, until they are picked up by their parents or legal guardians.
Students residing in the plume exposure patnway EPZ and attend-ing school outside will be held for pick-up at the school they attend.
9.
Incident - An event or condition at a nuclear facility whicn I
coulo result in impact on public health and safety. Four l
emergency incident levels have been developed to facilitate l p planning for response to nuclear incidents:
t
\\
a.
Unusual Events - An occurrence whicn indicates a potential cegradation of tne level of safety of tne facility. No releases of radioactive material requiring offsite response or monitoring are expected unless furtner degradation of l
safety systems occurs.
l b.
Alert - An occurrence which involves actual or potential suostantial degradation of the level of safety of the facility. Any releases are expected to be limited to small fractions of tne Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) protective action guideline exposure levels.
c.
Site Emergency - An occurrence wnich involves actual or likely major failures of facility functions needed for tne i
protection of the public. Radioactive releases are not expected to exceed tne EPZ protective action guideline exposure levels except near.the racility site coundary.
d.
General Emergency - An occurrence which involves actual or inntnent substantial core degradation or melting witn ene potential for loss of containment integrity. Releases can i
reasonably by expected to exceed EPA protective action guideline exposure levels offsite for more than the 4
A innediate site area Doundaries.
('
- 10. Main Evacuation Routes - Those roadways identified in state and risk county plans as tne principal routes leading from the plume 3

(]
projected dose of radiation. Some of tne basic actions are:

Evacuation Concepts 1.
Protective Action Option Evacuation is a protective action option wnien involves movement of the population from the plume exposure patnway EPl.
It may be accomplisned on a selective or general basis.
2.
Autnorization and Control O
V a.
Tne Governor, or his constitutionally designated successor, nas the sole autnority and responsibility for directing and compelling a selective or general evacuation, n.
Elected county or cunicipal of ficials in autnority may recommend an evacuation for their respective jurisdictions.
c.
PEMA has the primary responsibility for directing and controlling an evacuation order made by tne Governor.
d.
A decision to evacuate risk municipalities (including scnool districts) will be.made by PEMA and tne decision will be announced by PEMA through Berks County Emergency Managenent Cnannels to scnool districts and building principals.
(Note:
Tne Pennsylvania Department of Education may notify District Superintendents for purpose of redundancy, and municipal EMA Coordinators will confirm tne notification of building principals in their jurisdiction.)
e.
Tne Daniel Boone Area Scnool District has the authority to close schools at its discretion. During a fixed nuclear facility incident, the Berks County Emergency Management Agency must De kept informed of decisions to close school or nave the scnools remain closed; as tne derks County EMA will U
11 Oraft 4 a.
l I
\\
coordinate scnool closings among all districts / schools and dispaten or provide needed transportation in tne event' of a need to evacuate.
Scnools will not be closed if in session.
9 3.
l.ogistics of Evacuation-a.
If school evacuation is required, students located witnin the EPZ will be bussed directly to a nost scnool, to await pick-up by parent or guardian. Tne host school for Amity Elementary Scnool is the Daniel Boone Area Senior High School.
b.
Transportation to host schools within tne 01 strict will be provided for all students.
c.
Sufficient transpcrtation'will be provided to move all students 4" ide the EPZ in one lift. Students at Amity
-Elementary Center will be moved to tne-host scnool (Daniel
.Soone Area Senior High) as soon as transportation resources are available after evacuation is ordered.
d.
School faculty / staff may accompany evacuated students to tne designated nost scn001, and remain witn students until they are picked up by parents or/ guardians.
e.
When the school attended is outside tne plume. exposure patnway EPZ and parents' nome are inside the plume exposure O
patnway EP4, students will reinain at tne scnool they attend untii picked up by parents or legal guardians.
f.
Students may be' picked up by parent, legal guardian or designate, as authorized in writing. (reference Attacnment 4).
9 Snould student pick-up extend beyond 8 p.m., remaining students may be bused to a pre-designated mass care center (Ggv. Mifflin Interraediate Scnool) to be fed, properly housed and await pick-up. A notice will be posted to remind parents / guardians and direct them to tne appropriate
-locations, should any movement occur.
~4.- Evacuation Support a.
State, county and mu'nicipal RERP's offer' detailed plans to provide for evacuation routes, traffic control points manned
'by police, roadway clearance, access control points,.
security, and emergency fuel supply.
-b.
Specific arrangements: nave been developed to utilize the Daniel.Boone' Area Senior Hign School. Facility as-a host.
