La Salle Nuclear Power Station Site-Specific Offsite Radiological Emergency Preparedness Alert And Notification System Quality Assurance verification State Of Illinois La Salle County Municipality Of Grand Ridge Municipality Of Marsellies Municipality Of Ransom Municipality Of Seneca Grundy County Municipality Of Kinsman Municipality Of Verona Livingston County I. INTRODU CTION A. Identification

1. Site Information The La Salle Nuclear Power Station, operated by the Commonwealth Edison Company, utilizes two 1078 mie (not) General Electric boiling water reactor electric generating units. Unit 1 began commercial operation in 1982; Unit 2, in 1984.1 The La Salle Nuclear Power Station is located in Brookfield Township in La Salle County, Illinois. It is located in the northeastern portion of Illinois, approximately 7 miles south-southeast of Marseilles, 5 miles south of the Illinois River, and 6 miles couthwest of Seneca.

I 1

The land within a 10-mile radius of the La Salle Nuclear Power Station is generally flat with scattered wooded areas and is primarily uced for agricultural purposes.

2. Governments Within The 10-Mile Emeroency Plannino Zone The emergency planning zone ( EPZ ) for the La Salle Nuclear Power Station is defined by a 10-mile-radius circle with the La Salle Nuclear Power Station as the center point. The EPZ, located entirely in the State of Illinois, includes portions of La Salle, Grundy, and Livingston Counties. The La Salle and Grundy County line is oriented north-south across the EPZ, approximately 4 miles east of the La Salle Nuclear Power Station. La Salle County, located to the west of this line, occupies the majority of the EPZ.

Livingston County extends less than 1 mile into the southern section of the EPZ and contains only a small number of residences. For practical purposes, the portion of Livingston County within the EPZ is treated as an extension of the jurisdiction of La Salle County.

There are six municipalities located within the La Salle Nuclear Power Station EPZ Grand Ridge, Marseilles, Ransom, and Seneca in La Salle County and Kinsman and Verona in Grundy County. The total 1980 population within these six municipalities was 8409 persons: 4766 persons were located in Marseilles, 2098 persons in Seneca, and less than 700 persons in each of the remaining municipalities. The 1980 population within 5 miles of the La Salle Nuclear Power Station wan 729 persons. An additional 3759 2 ,

persons lived in either rural residences or on f armsteads between 5 miles and 10 miles f rom the La Salle Nuclear Power Station. The above population figures were obtained f rom the Illinois Emergency Services and Disaster Agency and Commonwealth Edison Company's "An Off-Site Emergency Plan Alert and Notification Addendum for the La Salle Nuclear Power Station," as supplemented by an operational reliability statement forwarded by FEMA Region V (hereinafter referred to as the Design Report).2 Recreational facilities within the La Salle Nuclear Power Station EPZ include a 60-acre park with camping f acilities on the southwest shore of the site's cooling lake. This 2058-acre cooling lake is used for recreational boating and fishing. Approximately 6 miles north-northwest of the La Salle Nuclear Power Station is the 510-acre Illini State Park, which is EE used f or camping, boating, picnicking, and fishing.

There are no airports, government installations, or correctional facilities within the La Salle Nuclear Power Station EPZ.2 B. Scope Of Review

1. Pmeroency Plans For Off site Response Oroanizations The emergency plans and implementing instructions for j urisdictions within the La Salle Nuclear Power Station EPZ include

. "The Illinois Plan for Radiological Accidents,"

Volumes I and III, March 1982.3 L

Ref erences 2 and 3 above document the administrative means established for notifying and providing prompt instructions to the public within the La Salle Nuclear Power Station EPZ.

2. Alert And Notification System Design Report The physical means established for alerting the public within the La Salle Nuclear Power Station EPZ are documented in Sections 2.3, 2.4, and supporting Appendices of the Design Report.
3. FEMA Evaluation Findinas FEMA Region V and the Regional Assistance Committee have evaluated four offsite emergency response exercises for the La Salle Nuclear Power Station:

. FEMA, " Post Exercise Evaluation, State of Illinois and Grundy and La Salle Counties Exercise of the Illinois Plan for Radiological Accidents for La Salle Nuclear Power Plant, December 4,1980" (No date);4

. FEMA, " Final Report, La Salle Nuclear Power Station Full-Scale Exerciso, April 14-15, 1982,"

May 1982;5

. FEMA, " Exercise Final Report, La Salle Nuclear Power Station Joint Radiological Emergency Exercise," July 12, 1983;6 and

, . FEMA, " Exercise Report, La Salle Nuclear Power Station, Joint Exercise (Partial Participation),

October 10-11, 1984," November 26, 1984; also, revisions of March 26, 1985.7 4

In a letter to the Honorable James R. Thompson, Governor of Illinois, dated June 4,1982, signed by Lee M. Thomas, FEMA Associate Director, State and Local Programs and Support, the La Salle Nuclear Power Station received FEMA approval under Title 44 of the Code of Federal Reculations, Part 350 (44 CFR 350) conditioned upon verification of the adequacy of l the public alert and notification system.8 s

II. FINDINGS FOR EVALUATION CRITERION E.6 The Design Report describing the alert and notification system for the La Salle Nuclear Power Station was reviewed against evaluation criterion E.6 and Appendix 3 of NUREG-0654/PEMA-REP-1, Revision 1, " Criteria for Preparation and Evaluation of Radiological Emergency Response Plans and Preparedness in Support of Nuclear Power Plants" (herein-af ter ref erred to as NUREG-0654/ FEMA-REP-1, Rev. 1). This evaluation criterion states:

Each organization shall establish administrative and physical means, and the time required for notifying and providing prompt instructions to the public within the plume exposure pathway Emergency Planning Zone. (See Appendix 3.) It shall be the licensee's responsibility to demonstrate that such means exist, regardless of who implements this requirement. It shall be the responsibility of the State and lo governments to activate such a system. gal

, The bases for review against this evaluation criterion were the corresponding acceptance criteria of FEMA-43, " Standard Guide for the Evaluation of Alert and Notification Systems for Nuclear Power Plants" (hereinafter referred to as PEMA-43).10 This quality assurance verification review was perf ormed to make a determination of alert and notification system adequacy prior to conducting a demonstration of this system for the La Salle Nuclear Power Station on December 4,1984.

l Based upon this quality assurance verification review and public survey results, International Energy Associates Limited concludes that the design and implenentation of the alert and notification system for the La Salle Nuclear Power Station and its supporting procedures conform suf-ficiently to the acceptance criteria, as stated in FEMA-43, t

6

f or evaluation criterion E.6 of NUREG-0654/ FEMA-REP-1, Rev.

1, to support a FEMA finding that the alert and notifica-tion system is adequate.

This portion of the quality assurance verification review discusses La Salle Nuclear Power Station's alert and notification system against FEMA-43 acceptance criteria in the following areas: the administrative means of alerting, the physical means of alerting, and the special alerting methods (utilization of institutional alerting systems) .

A. Administrative Means Of Alerting (E.6.1, FEMA-43)

The Design Report and the Illinois Plan for Radiological l Accidents address those organizations or individuals within the state and local governments who are respon-sible for alert and notification system activation. The decision logic shown in, Figure 1 was developed af ter a review of the current emergency procedures for the State of Illinois, La Salle County, and G rundy County.

As Figure 1 indicates, these procedures satisfy FEMA-43 acceptance criteria. These current emergency procedures document the responsibilities concerning the alert and notification system activation process f rom the time a decision is conveyed via the Illinois Emergency Services and Disaster Agency Coordinator to the La Salle County and Grundy County Sheriffs' Dispatchers (who physically activate the sirens) .

In the event of a radiological emergency at the La Salle Nuclear Power Station, principal emergency response organizations are notified via the Nuclear Accident Reporting System. The Nuclear Accident Reporting 7

System, a state-wide warning system utilizing private wire telephone circuits, is also used by the licensee to provide a continual update on the status of a radio-logical incident and on recommended protective actions.

The Nuclear Accident Reporting System provides the capability to communicate simultaneously among all principal emergency response organizations. The La Salle Nuclear Power Station, Illinois Emergency Services .

and Disaster Agency, Illinois Department of Nuclear Safety, Grundy County Sheriff, and La Salle County Sherif f utilize the Nuclear Accident Reporting System.

Procedures for the primary Emergency Broadcast System

( EB S) station, WCMY, include the recording of EBS messages as dictated by state and local representa- -

tives. These recorded messages are then broadcast to the public and are relayed to nearby EBS affiliates.  ?

Additionally, all Emergency Operations Centers (EOCs) have the capability to monitor EBS broadcasts.

The aforementioned exercise evaluations and the approval under 44 CFR 350 (see ref erences 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8) demonstrate that the administrative means are in place to provide prompt notification to the general public in the event of an emergency situation at the La Salle Nuclear Power Station.

B. Physical Means Of Alerting (E.6.2, FEMA-43) >

The alert and notification system for the La Salle Nuclear Power Station consists of 39 fixed sirens and existing emergency / law enforcement vehicles for route alert and notification. The 39 fixed sirens are utilized primarily within the 0-to-5 mile radius area and also to cover densely populated sections within the 9

5-to-10 mile radius area. Existing emergen;y/ law enforcement vehicles are utilized to traverse predetermined mobile alert and notification routes within the remaining populated geographical areas of the EPZ .

1. Sirens ( E. 6.2.1, FEMA-43 )

The siren system of the La Salle Nuclear Power Station is comprised of 39 fixed sirens: 22 Federal Signal (PS) Model 1000 Thunderbolt rotational sirens rated at 125 dBC, seven FS STH10 omni-directional sirens rated at 112 dBC, two FS Model 2 omni- )

directional sirens rated at 98 dBC, and eight FS Local Coverage omni-directional sirens (LCS) rated at 85 dB C. Siren locations, mounting heights, ratings, and estimated ranges are shown in Table 1 of Appendix C of the Design Report. In addition, their locations are also indicated on the Siren Contour Map (Appendix D of the Design Report) .

The Design Report, as supplemented by an operational reliability statement forwarded by FEMA Region V, describes the methods by which the siren system's annual reliability is calculated. For the 12-month period f rom May 1983 through April 1984, the overall siren system reliability level was 94.4%, exceeding the FEMA-43 acceptable value of 90%.

Siren anechoic-chamber measured octave band sound pressure spectra of the sirens (Appendices J and K of the Design Report) were used to verify their rated output at 100 f t. The evaluation of the siren system design calculation procedure was conducted by 4

10

verifying and comparing the design calculation procedure (as presented in Section 2.4.2 of the Design Report) with outdoor Sound Propagation Model (OSPM)11 results for specific sirens.

The La Salle Nuclear Power Station siren alerting system design follows the 10 dB loss per distance doubled attenuation rate as recommended in NURDG-0654/PEMA-REP-1, Rev. 1, in the absence of intervening topographical features. Kurz e's point source barrier attenuation formulation,12 with a cap of 24 dB maximum, was applied f or topographical features that presented barriers. A logarithmic superposition was used when computing the locations of 70 dBC contour lines that were influenced by two sirens. However, no credit was taken for this additive ef f ect when computing 60 dBC contours.

These procedures were applied to the system of 39 fixed sirens resulting in the Siren contour Map contained in Appendix D of the Design Report. The Siren contour Map also depicted geographical areas with population densities greater than 2000 persons per square mile. Population distributions based on 1980 census data were shown in Table 2.3.1 and Figure 2.3.1 of the Design Report.

The Design Report, in Section 2.4.4, further states that the design objectives were to achieve a minimum of 70 dBC coverage in areas where the population density exceeds 2000 persons por square mile and a minimum of 60 dBC in other populated areas.

The Design Report states that the La Salle nuclear Power Station airen alerting system, as depicted in combination with emergency / law enforcement vehicles A ' traversing predetermined mobile alert and notifi-cation routes, provides 100% coverage of the EPZ.

11

This evaluation seeks to ascertain whether the design procedure (with its assumptions) adequately accounts for the site-specific terrain and weather conditions and whether the ciren system an designed does indeed meet FEMA-43 acceptance criteria.

Six sirens were celected for this quality assurance i verification review. Three FS 1000 cirens (Nos.1, f.

3, and 6A), two PS STH10 cirena (Nos. 2 and 13) , and one PS LCS (No. 12) were chosen for individual siren range comparisons. The three sirens (Non.1, 2, and

3) in Marseilles Township (see Figure 2 of this report) were chosen for superposition airen coverage eval ua tion. Site average summer daytime weather conditions were derived f rom over 40 years of Peoria National Oceanic and Atmocpheric Administration weather data that was provided by the licensee's consultant. Appendix A contains OSPM topographical 8 profile charts, OSPM topographical input, OSPM cound $N proccuro level input, OSPM meteorological input, and OSPM sound pressure icvel output for each of the cix individual siren runn.

The OSPM results were classified, according to terrain profiles f or each niren type, into three categoriens hilly, partially hilly, and relatively flat. Regressions of dBC vernun the logarithm of distance were performed for the PS 1000 and the FS STH10 airens over each terrain category with the results depicted in Figures 3 through 8 of this report. The rangen of 70 dBC and 60 dBC as calculated in the Design Report without considering terrain barrier or two-siren additive ef f ects are alco shown on the figuren and cummarized belows s

Distance From Siren In Feet

Siren Type 70 dBC (ft) 60 dBC (ft) PS 1000 5700 11,400 FS STH10 1890 3780 PS Model 2 690 1380 FS LCS - 740 These ranges are conservative over relatively flat terrains, with the conservatism being pronounced for the 70 dBC range estimates. In addition, the range estimates that include the barrier attenuation pro-cedure over partially hilly and hilly terrains ade-quately account for the site terrain characteristics. The results of the individual OSPM runs were combined to generate a comprehensive overview of the siren sound pressure levels over the Marseilles area. A logarithmic distance-weighted interpolation was performed on the output results of the three sirens to generate a grid of 44 by 44 dBC values over the entire map area. Each siren's dBC output was interpolated over this grid. The maximum dBC values at each grid point were then used to compute the siren sound pressure level contours as shown in Figure 2. These contours account for the site-specific topographical and meteorological ef f ects. Comparison of the OSPM predicted 70 dBC contours with the Design Report's 70 dBC contours indicates that the siren coverage (as discussed in the Design Report) in Marseilles is slightly more conservative than those coverages proj ected by OSPM. t 20

The design procedure results in a reasonable overall estimate of the system coverage, in that it: (1) utilizes the 10 dB loss per distance doubled esti-mate, (2) utilizes barrier attenuation corrections, and (3) does not take credit for the logarithmically additive effects of omni-directional sirens when com-puting 60 dBC sound pressure level contours. Thus, the La Salle Nuclear Power Station siren alerting system is found to meet the specific design requirements of FEMA-43.

2. Soecial Al erting (E. 6.2.4, FEMA-43 )

A method of special alerting, route alerting, is employed to alert persons within those geographical areas of the EPZ not covered by the siren system. The route alerting, therefore, is employed in the geographical area within a radius of 5 to 10 miles f rom the La Salle Nuclear Power Station. This method of special alerting involves emergency / law enforce-ment vehicles, equipped with public address systems, traversing predetermined mobile alert and notifi-cation routes. Activation of the route alerting system, as indicated in Figure 1, is the responsibility of local organiza-tions. The mobile alert and notification network is designed around the keyhole concept such that the mobile alert and notification routes are centered on and prioritiz ed by the appropriate three downwind sectors of the EPZ. In an accident situation, under the keyhole concept, the downwind sectors have 21

immediate priority of public alert and notification. The nearest emergency / law enf orcement vehicles that support these three sectors are assigned the priority routes within the three sectors by the La Salle County Sheriff's Dispatcher and/or the Grundy County Sherif f' s - Dispatcher. These existing special alerting resources are supplemented by mutual aid agreements currently on record with the appropriate state and local emergency response organization. As stated in Section 2.7 of the Design Report, all special alerting routes within the La Salle Nuclear Power Sta' tion EPZ can be completed within a 45-minute time span, in accordance with NUREG-0654/ FEMA-REP-1, Rev. 1.9 Institutional alerting is addressed in Section J of the La Salle County Plan and the Grundy County Plan, both of which are contained within the Illinois Plan for Radiological Accidents.3 These sections identify special concerns within the two counties and their communities. The following special concerns within each county are identified: schools, hospi-tals, nursing homes, subdivisions, recreational f acilities, industrial complexes, disabled and handi-capped citizens, and provisions for notifying the Illinois Commerce Commission in communities and areas that have railroad crossings. Specific responsibili-ties for notification and specific protective actions for these special concerns have been designated within the La Salle County Plan and the Grundy County Pl an. - 22

[ III. FINDINGS FOR EVALUATION CRITERION N.l' On December 4,1984, the physical means (sirens and route alerting) used to alert the population within the La Salle Nuclear Power Station EPZ were demonstrated to satisfy the alert and notification aspects of 44 CFR 350.9 (a) . This demonstration was conducted by using methods specified in Section N.l . (a, b) .2 of FEMA-43.10 The results indicate that this portion of the alert and notification system evaluation conf orms to FEMA-43 and NUREG-0654/ FEMA-REP-1, Rev. 1.9 The December 4,1984, demonstration of the La Salle Nuclear Power Station siren system consisted of a double activation of all sirens, a route alerting demonstration, and a subsequent telephone survey to estimate the proportion of EPZ households actually alerted. Siren activations were initiated at approximately 10:00 a.m. and 10 : 08 a. m. (Central Standard Time) . All sirens were reported operating during the activations. Route alerting began at 10:00 a.m.- (Central Standard Time) . The telephone survey of EPZ residences began at approxi-mately 10 :13 a.m. (Central Standard Time) and was completed within one hour and 2 minutes. This survey was conducted i by approximately 40 telephone interviewers, each with a separate WATS line and computer terminal. The universe of households to be surveyed was determined by establishing a 10-mile-radius circle around the latitude and longitude of the plant. The sample incorporated a sorted master list of approximately 2500 households (addresses and telephone numbers) within the established boundary. 23

  ~         -                  .  .   .         .-             -     __

Replicated subsamples were developed f rom this master list. In order to properly account for route alerting, one replicated subsample of households was analyzed in greater detail than is usually required. The size of this subsample was calculated so that:

        . It was sufficiently large to support interviewing            -

efforts for as long as possible and to minimize any down time associated with the waiting period between interviewing households in siren coverage areas and the 45 minutes for completion of route alerting, so

that interviews in route alerting areas could begin; and
        . It was small enough in size to ensure that the total sample was representative of the EPZ (i.e., to ensure that a disproportionate number of interviews were not completed in siren coverage areas simply because interviewing could be started in these areas about 40 minutes earlier) .

All households in this systematically drawn subsample were screened by checking their addresses against street maps showing siren coverage areas and route alerting areas. The subsample was sorted into two groups: (1) households that were positively identified as being in siren coverage areas (and therefore could be contacted immediately af ter activa-tion) and (2) households that either were in route alerting areas or had uncertain geographic locations (such as post office boxes or rural route addresses) . In addition, all households in the entire sample that could be positively identified as being outside the EPZ were removed f rom the sample. I l 24

Immediately following the second siren activation, inter-views were begun with households in the subsample that had been definitely identified as being in the siren coverage area. Interviews were attempted with all of these house-holds until this group of the subsample was exhausted. Forty-five minutes af ter route alerting began, interviews started with the group of households in the subsample that were in route alerting areas or that could not be precisely located. Interviews were attempted with all of these house-holds until this group of the subsample was exhausted. As soon as this replicate subsample was exhausted, interviews were begun using the remaining replicate subsamples. A sufficient number of replicate subsamples were developed f rom the overall sample to ensure that the required number of telephone calls would be made, i.e., to establish the proportion of households alerted to within a 5% precision at a 95% confidence level. Appendix B of this report describes the method for sizing the sample to achieve this result. The questionnaire used for the telephone survey is included as Figure 9. As part of the telephone survey, a total of 302 households within the La Salle Nuclear Power Station EPZ were con-tacted and their responses were collected in an automated data base. Of this group, 71 respondents stated that they l were not alerted. Howev er, before running the final tabu-lations, addresses of all households interviewed were

checked on a street map to validate their locations. Of the 302 addresses, 16 were outside the EPZ. Therefore, data were tabulated on the 286 respondent households located within the EPZ. Respondents at 13 of these '

i households had been away from home at the time of the l 25 t

alerting system demonstration and, therefore, were not included in the alerting analysis. Of the remaining 273 households, 82.0% (224) indicated that they had been alerted during the demonstration. Using the estimated number of households within the EPZ (4510 from reference 2) in the confidence interval expression in Appendix B, an estimated 95% confidence interval that ranges f rom 77.2% to 86.0% was yielded for the proportion of the total EPZ population alerted. In other words, at the 95% confidence l ev el, between 77.2% and 86.0% of the households within the La Salle Nuclear Power Station EPZ were alerted by the siren and route alerting systems. The sample of 286 households was also used to estimate the proportion of households within the EPZ that would have stated they received information about what to do in a real emergency at the La Salle Nuclear Power Station. Of these 286 households, 82.2% (235) responded that they had re-ceived the information, 16.8% (48) responded that they had not received the information, and 1.0% (3) did not know or ref used to state whether they had received the informa-tion. Using the approach discussed previously, the following estimates for the entire EPZ population resulted (at the 95% confidence interval) :

      . Between 77.5% and 86.0% of the households would have reported receiving the information;
      . Between 13.0% and 21.4% of the households would have responded that they had not received the information; and
      . Between 0.4% and 2.9% of the households would not have known or refused to state whether they had received the information, i

In conclusion, no areas of the La Salle Nuclear Power Station siren or route alerting systems were identified as needing enhancements. i l I I l I 4 30 i

IV. FINDINGS FOR EVALUATION CRITERIA E.5, F.1, N.2, N. 3, AND N.5 Those aspects of the alert and notification system ad-dressing evaluation criteria E.5, F.1, N.2, N. 3, and N. 5 of NUREG-06 54/ FEMA-REP-1, Rev. 1, have been reviewed by FEMA and found to be adequate to provide reasonable assurance that appropriate protective measures can be taken off site in the event of a radiological emergency. This conclusion is documented in a letter to the Honorable James R. Thompson, Governor of Illinois, dated June 4,1982, signed by Lee M. Thomas, FEMA Associate Director, State and Local Programs and Support.8 In this letter, the La Salle Nuclear Power Station received FEMA approval under 44 CFR 350, conditioned on an ultimate approval and verification of the public alert and notification gystem as called for in NUREG-0654/ FEMA-REP-1, Rev. 1. l 31

APPENDIX B Sample Size Determination

APPENDIX B SAMPLE SIZE DETERMINATION The number of households that need to be surveyed is determined based upon the need to obtain a sample size sufficient to obtain a 95% confidence interval with precision (half-width) of 0.05 for the estimate of the porportion alerted. The exact number of households to be surveyed can be derived from the following statistical considerations. For relatively large sample sizes (n 2 30), taken without replacement from a population (N) , the sampling distribution for proportions (e.g., the proportion of the population alerted) is nearly a normal distribution, the mean of which is the proportion (p) of the population alerted and the variance of which is

                                  ~"

p(1 - p)/n , If P is the observed sample proportion, then for a particular confidence level with confidence coefficient Zet (P - p) $Z p(1 - p)/n [ Thus, for this confidence level, the actual proportion of the population alerted satisfies the following inequalities: 2 I 2 I N-n c p , 2n (N - lj P (1 - P) N-n , c N-n\ c n (N - if ' 2 N - if S p ad c N-n n N-1 1

p 2n c N-n\ P(1 - P) N-n\ c N-n\ PS N - if c n (N-1/ 2 N - 1/ 2 c N-n n N-1 Thus, the precision (W) is simply given by Z P(1 - P) n [N-n c N-n w- (N - 1/ 4n \

                                                               ~
                                                                     /

2 E c I N-n I n (N - lj This equation can be solved to determine the sample size (n) required to yield a given precision (W) with a given observed sample proportion (P) as follows:

                            ,, 2 2

P(1 - P) - 2W + W l - 4P(1 - P) +P (1 - P) 2w . n- .,

                     ,~
                     ~

l+ 2 P(1 - P) - 2W l+ 2

                                                                      + W     l - 4P(1 - P)  +P (1 - P) 2w 3                                    Z     j Although this expression for n can be used directly, it is customary to make several approximations. First, since the term in N in the denominator (the finite population term) is positive definite for all reasonable values of W (0 < W < 0.5), omitting this term will result in an approximation to n that is slightly i

larger than its true value. This is an acceptable practice in sizing the sample since a larger sample gives greater precision. 2

A second approximation that can be made is to neglect the terms l in W2 within the bracket in the numerator. Analysis demonstrates that this underestimates n when P < 1/2 - 1/4 M 2 + 8W2 l or P > 1/2 + 1/4 Y2+8W2 and overestimates n for P between those two values. For the case of interest (a 95% confidence interval with precision of 0.05), this approximation provides an overestimation of n when a sample size greater than 191 is required. Since the sampling plan calls for a minimum sample size of 250, regardless of the value of P, this approximation is acceptable because it also yields an estimate of n larger than the true value. Therefore, for the purposes of the pilot test i and subsequent surveys, the following approximate equation can be used to determine whether a sample size larger than 250 is required: I 2 3 n= P (1 - P) or using 1.96 for Z e and 0.05 for W, n = 1536.64 P(1 - P) Data from the pilot test can be used to illustrate the effects of these approximations. In the pilot test, the population of tone alert households f rom which the sample was to be drawn (N) was approximately 4500 and the observed proportion alerted (P) was 0.675. This yields 311 as the exact result for n. Neglecting the finite population term yields an estimate of 334 , for n, and the simplified final approximation estimates n as 338. Thus, the final simplified approximation overestimates the required sample size by 27 in this case. SOURCE: International Energy Associates Limited. " Analysis of Tone Alert Pilot Test." IEAL-321.
