SUPPLEMENTAL MOTION OF THE INMATES AT SCIG REGARDING FULL DISCLOSURE OF THE EVACUATION PLAN FOR SCIG I. INTRODUCTION On December 20, 1984, the in=ates at the Sca:e Correction-al Institute at Gra:erford, Pennsylvania, filed a Motion befora the Atomic Safety and Licensing Board requesting full disclosure of the evacuacion p1an for :he Scace Correctional Insti:ute at Graterford, Pennsylvania. On January 2, 1985, the Nuclear Regulatory Co= ission s:aff filed an Answer to said Mo: ion. The applicant and the Pennsylvania E=argency Manage =en: Associa:icn also filed responses. On January 22, 1985, during a public hocr-ing before the Board, Chairran Hoyt requested counsel for the inmates to respond to the N.R.L. staff request on page 5, which states, "...the inma:es should be required to specify the informa-tien they need, based on expert opinion, which is beyond thac provided in the ' sanitized' version." The purpose of :his

. supplemental motion is to respond to this question. .

II. Inmates have retained John Case, Field Director of the Penn~sylvania Prison Society as their expert. E Initially, the inmates would 'like the record to reflect that they have retained the services of John Case to act as their expert in this matter. Mr. Case is currently the Field Director of the Pennsylvania Prison Society (see Vita attached as Exhibit A). .

III. The' inmates' expert, John Case, requests that all informa-  !

tion contained in the unsanitized version of the evacuation plan is needed in order to ascertain the~ viability of'such.

The inmates' experc, John Case, served twenty-one years in the United Scaces Marine Corps (1942-62). During this period, he obtained a security racing of Top Secrec "Q". It is his opinion that all the informacion contained in the sanitized ver-sion is necessary to determine che viability of the plan. He further indicated that said macerial is secure in his hands due to his prior security clearances in the Marine Corps and his top secret rating. He also indicated that the unsanitized version contains virtually no useful information, therefore further in-quiries as to the type of information needed are premature.

Accordingly, the inmaces request full disclosure of the plan to I

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION Before the Atomic Safety and Licensing Board In Ehe Matter of  : Docket No. 50-352 Philadelphia Electric Company  :

(Limerick Generating Station, Unit 1)  :

PROPOSED CONTENTIONS OF THE GRATERFORD INMATES WITH REGARD TO THE EVACUATION PLAN I. INTRODUCTION On September 18, 1981, the National Lawyers Guild, through Donald Bronstein, filed a petition to intervene in the above-captioned matter on behalf of certain inmates at Graterford. In response to a Board Order of October 14, 1981, the National Lawyers Guild filed a Supplementary Memorandum in support of its initial petition. On June 1, 1982 the Atomic Safety and Licensing Board admitted the Graterford prisoners as a party to this proceeding. See Philadelphia Electric Company (Limerick Generating Station Units 1 and 2) LBP-82-43A, 15 NRC 1423, 1446 through 1447 (1982). On April 20, 1984, in a special-pre-hearing conference order, the Board granted the Graterford Inmates twenty days after receipt of the evacuation plan for Graterford to submit specific contentions. On December 13, 1984, three and a half years after their initial filing, the counsel for the inmates, Angus R. Love , who replaced Donald Bronstein, received from the Commonw a/lth the sanitized version of the Pennsylvania

Bureau of Corrections radiological emergency response plan for Graterford. On December 19, 1984, the Graterford inmates moved for kan order requiring full disclosure of the Graterford plan to counsel or experts under a protective order or otherwise.

They further requested.and received an extension of time in which to file their contentions. On January 29, 1985, the Board denied the inmates Motion for Full Disclosure and ordered them to submit

-within twenty days their contentions based upon the-sanitized version of the plan. In response to said order, the inmates hereby submit their proposed contentions with regard to this plan. The inmates, however, reserve the right to file additional contentions if their appeal of the decision denying them and their expert access to the unsanitized plan is successful.

It is the inmates contention that there are no other persons or agencies available to represent their interests in this matter. They further state that input through their counsel and their expert, Major John Case, can contribute!to pro-

~

viding a reasonable assurance that the Graterford evacuation plan will work. To date there has been no demonstrative or varifiable evidence from any agency, including PEMA~,'.. as to the workability of this plan. The-inmates request the right to participate in this proceeding so as to bridge the gap between themselves and their administration and to quell inmate fears regarding their safety in the event of a nuclear emergency.- '

7 .' - _ - . --

t o r .,.

II. GENERAL CONTENTIONS A. There is no reasonable assurance that the evacuation plan will protect the staff and inmates at the State.

Correctional Institute at Graterford.

B. There is no reasonable assurance that the evacuation plan will provide a safe and secure evacuation from the State Correctional Institute at Graterford.

C. There is no reasonable assurance that the evacuation plan will provide for a safe and secure return to the State Correctional Institute at Graterford.

III. SPECIFIC BASES FOR CONTENTIONS A. Transportation.

1. There is no reasonable assurance that PEMA has made arrangements to provide the sufficient number of buses, vans ambulances and drivers for said vehicles necessary to implement an evacuation from SCIG. On January 2, 1985, Ralph Hibbert of PEHA , testified that PEMA has not been involved in negotiations for buses and drivers for a Limerick evacuation with any bus provider, other than SEPTA (TR. 19609). The negotiations with SEPTA are still ongoing and have not come to any agreement.

Furthermore, there has been no information provided to suggest that any arrangements for any vehicles have been made for the Graterford evacuation. Mr. Hibbert testified that "We (PEMA) have not completed all the arrangements for meeting the unmet needs. When we do complete them, we will assure that there is

-3r  ; :3V' D.%X_

ll b

! a driver for each bus. Otherwise, obviously the bus is useless."

h (TR. 19,566).

,i

~

'2 . There is no reasonable assurance that two ambu-lances will be adequate to transport non-ambulatory and communi-cable disease patients (See Evacuation Plan page E-1-11, 4(4) ).

There is no assurance that two ambulances will be sufficient to transport all the non-ambulatory and communicable disease patients at SCIG. SCIG frequently treats patients with hepatitis, which is a communicable disease and there are a multitude of non-ambulatory persons currently housed in SCIG. There is no basis for assuming that two ambulances will be sufficient to carry out this task. Ralph Hibbert testified on January 22, 1985 that there are currently an unmet need for 134 ambulances for Chester and Montgomery Counties with 40 reserve ambulances be requested by Montgomery County. (See TR 19,578). Thus, the need for two or more ambulances for the Graterford evacuation will further burden this unmet need. Mr. Hibbert further testified that PEEMA is currently negotiating with the Pennsylvania Department of Health in an attempt to meet this unmet need, however, there is no assurance that an agreement has been reached which will provide the necessary ambulances in order to conduct the evacuation of not only the counties but also the State Correctional Institute at Graterford.

3. The inmates cite 10 CFR 50.47 a(1) and 2(b) 1, 2, 8; NUREG 0654, Criteria A.4, C.4, A.2 (a) as the basis for this contention.

- ~

l B. Preparation for Evacuation.

1. Manpower (a)There is no reasonable assurance that the manpower needed to conduct the evacuation will be available at the time necessary to implement the evauation plan. The inmates note that there is a significant disparity between the number of cor-rectional officers on duty during the three shifts at the SCIG.

If the evacuation were to occur during the night shift, there is no assurance that there would be adequate personnel to conduct said evacuation. -

(b)There is no reasonable assurance that the Pennsyl-vania National Guard can be mobilized in time to carry out their responsibilities of the evacuation (See Evacuation Plan page E-1-10 (5) ). Ralph Hibbert testified on January 22, 1985 that "It takes awhile to mobilize the National Guard." (TR 19,567)

The Montgomery County draft RERP Number 7 states that the average mobilization and deployment time for the National Guard units assigned to Montgomery County is approximately six to eight hours after order by the governor to state active duty. (Annex H, Sec-tion IV.A) Furthermore, there has been no assurance as to what battalion of the National Guard will be assigned to the Graterford evacuation. It is already expected that it will take from six to ten hours before the last prisoner is ready to leave SCIG (See Applicant's Motion for Exemption from the Requirements of 10 CFR -

1 50.47 (a) and (b) as they relate to the Necessity of Atomic l l

Attached to said Motion Affidavit of Robert Schmidt and Geoffrey Kaiser, page 7, paragraph 13 relating to a private communication between. Theodore Otto, III and G. D. Kaiser on 1/31/85. This information further raises the inmates concern regarding the mobilization and evacuation time necessary to complete a safe and secure evacuation of Graterford. There is also no reasonable assurance that the Pennsylvania State Police will be available to conduct their duties as mentioned on page E-1-10 (5) of the Evacuation Plan. The inmates cite as a basis for this contention 10 CFR 5'O.47(a)l, (b)l, 5, 6, 7 and 15; NUREG 0654; Criteria A.1, A.2, A.3, A.4, C.4, G.1, and M.l.

2. Security Equipment There is no reasonable assurance that there will be a sufficient number of shackles, leg irons, handcuffs and weapons necessary to provide a safe and secure evacuation for inmates and staff alike. There is no reasonable assurance that the current number of shackles currently available at SCIG for day to day operations will be sufficient to conduct an evacuation of 2,500 inmates in the event of a nuclear emergency.

Among the inmate population are 365 individuals serving life sentences, 45 individuals serving sentences of twenty years or more, and 10 individuals who are scheduled for execution. (See Pennsylvania Bureau of Corrections 1983 Annual

Furthermore, there is no provisions for testing at the site in order to assure that it is safe for the inmate population to return to SCIG. Inmates cite as a basis for this contention 10 CFR 50.47 (b)l3.

I. . Sheltering There is no reasonable assurance that there will be an evacuation of inmates in the event of an incident at the Limerick Generating Station (See page E-1-4, (3) of Evacuation Plan.) The inmates are concerned as to what criteria will be used in the decision on whether to evacuate or shelter and at this time has no reasonable assurance as to what those criteria may be. Further-more, the description of a monitoring of the " institutional climate" (See E-1-10 (8)) is too subjective and open-ended to be a rational basis for which to determine whether to shelter or evacuate.

J. General Concept of Evacuation There is no reasonable assurance that the general con-cept of evacuation as outlined in Attachment A page E-1-A-1 will provide for the safety and security of inmates and SCIG per-sonnel during said evacuation.
