Section C - Description / Specifications / Work Statement C.1 Statement of Work C.1.1 Background

  • Since the Three Mile Island accident, the NRC has placed an increasing emphasis on emergency planning for nuclear facilities. This emphasis has assumed the form of a licensing requirement for all nuclear facilities to develop an emergency response plan. The goal of these plans is to protect the public health and safety by focusing on expeditious evacuation and thereby reducing the public's radiological risks in the event of a radiological release.

Research on potential evacuation risks during a nuclear plant emergency and their overall effectiveness of public protection strategies for such an event has been studied by the Pennsylvania State University and others. A well known research project on evacuation risks was completed in June 1974 by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The primary objectives of the EPA study were:

"to determine the risk of death, major injury, and cost associated with an evactuation; what parameters in an evacuation affect risk, and, if such parameters exist, can they be used to prognosticate risk." ,

C.1.2 Objective l The purpose of this contract is, under radiological accident conditions,

to determine how the non-radiological risks of evacuation compare with
  • the radiological risks if no protective actions are taken. It is -

! necessary that the decisionmakers charged with the public health and safety have the resources (data) that will allow them to better evaluate protective action risks.

C.I.3 WorkRegtdr_ed Because of the urgent need of technical data for regulatory decisionmaking concerning the risks taken with protective actions, i.e.,

  • evacuations, a thorough review of the results of the 1974 EPA study will be conducted then undated to cover all evacuation incidents from February 1974 through December 1984 Then an analysis will be conducted i

 :.PC-04 ! 5-ll5 Pane 3 using this data , to coc pare the non-rodiological risks of cvac4.0 i m to the radiological risks of varinus accident sequences using a rc, .3 : of of fsi te do';es). This analysis will consist of two tasks.

Te s k_ l_ - Co.:ipl e t i on Da te : " arch 24, 1936 The contractor will expand upon the EPA's 1974 ropcrt "E w t. ion Risks - An Evaluation" in order to update and revise assessoWs of evacuation risks. This study will e> trapolate from risks assec ded with evacuation events precipitated by other man-made or 63: ral pheromena. The dependent variables - risk of dcath, risk of ing.ry, and cost of evacuation for sach incident investigated wil; be e>amined, independent variables will include meteoricgical conditions, time of day, road conditions, road types, traffic flow, and population size. An attempt to assess the net results of an CVacuation and the impact of communication reworking will be Tade.

Socioeconomic risks and psychological factors that inact evacuation will be considered in the interpretation of the final results of the complete analysis.

(a) In order to obtain the necessary dr.ta, the contractor shall:

1. Examine the dependent variables: risk of death, risk of injury and the cost of evacuation for each incident investigated.
2. Examine the independent variables: reteorological conditions, time of day, road conditions, road types, traffic ficw and population size for c-a c h incident investigated.

_ Task 3 - Publication material due: June 2, 1986 (see Section F.1)

Any publication in the open literature will also be provided to NRC in a format suitable for publication as a NUREG report.

NRC-04-85-ll5

,. Page 3a

. C.1.4 Publishing in Open Literature In accordance with NRC Manual Chapter 3202, the statement of work is modified to include the following provisions:

l The principal investigator (s) may publish the results of this work in the open literature instead of submitting a final report and/or pras,nt papers at public or association meetings at interim stages of the work, if the article or paper has been reviewed by the NRC project manager in draft form and agreement has been reached on the content. The applicable procedures set forth in Chapters NRC-3206 or NRC-1102 must be followed.

If agreement is not reached NRC may also ask that the paper include in addition to the standard statement " Work supported by the U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission," any caveats deemed necessary to cover NRC object-ions. If NRC objections cannot be covered in this manner, NRC can refuse to authorize publication in the open literature and/or presentation of papers.

In the latter case, NRC will inform the contractor of the decision, as

stated above for formal reports (see Section C, paragraph 3 and 4). The contractor is then free to publish without NRC identification of the information. This will not affect payment of the contract work costs.

Project manager or higher level decisions may be appealed to the NRC Executive Director for Operations.
