O i ABSTRACT Two large-scale surveys were undertaken on the main access roads to Plum Island and Salisbury Beach, Mass. and to Seabrook and Hampton Beaches, N.H. These surveys, conducted on July 11, j 1987 and July 18, 1987, both Saturdays, obtained data for the l primary purpose of estimating mean vehi'cle person occupancy. The I survey methodology consisted of observers standing at tne edge of selected roads, peering into the interior of passing vehicles and announcing the number of persons observed. This announcement was - l recorded on audio tape and was also recorded, in writing, by a second observer, on a form prepared for that purpose.
Over the two days of data collection, a total of 56,040 persons were observed in 24,637 vehicles, to yield a mean occupancy of 2.275 persons. This figure is in essential agreement with the results of a similar smaller-scale, survey, conducted a year earlier, on July 4th and 5th, 1986.

- 1. INTRODUCTION k~t'I' In order to estimate the population in the beach areas along the New Hampshire coast, a series of data collection activities were undertaken -
o In August, 1985 o on July 4th and 5th, 1986 o on July lith and_18th, 1987.
The primary purpose of these surveys was to establish the distribution of vehicle occupancies in vehicles travelling toward the beach areas. The mean value of vehicle occupancy is applied to the estimate of the maximum number of vehicles parked in the beach areas, to yield the maximum number of people who occupy the beach area, at a point in time.
The survey conducted in late August, 1985 was undertaken on days when the weather conditions were less than appealing to beach-goers. As a result, the mean vehicle occupancy of under l 2.2 persons was regarded as suspect.
1 consequently, a second survey was conducted on the July 4th l weekend in 1986, under generally good weather conditions. This I survey yielded a mean vehicle occupancy of 2.338 persons, based on a total sample size of 5,165 vehicles. For planning purposes, then, a mean occupancy value of 2.4 persons was applied to the gg8, estimated vehicle population to obtain estimates of beach population. The results were documented in Volume 6-of the l NHRERP, on pages 4-6, 4-7 and 4-8.
It was decided to update this data with even more extensive surveys in 1987 during the heat wave in mid-July. This report documents the 1987 surveys.

/~ 2. OVERVIEW OF THE SURVEY kw)g A comprehensive effort was undertaken to update the existing data quantifying the peak transient and permanent population of the larger beach areas in the vicinity of Seabrook Station. This effort consisted of close-up vehicle and occupancy counts by trained observers at all major approaches to the beaches along the beach access roadways. This effort, called the Vehicle occupancy Rate (VOR) survey, was conducted by planning personnel I assigned to Seabrook Station. Guidance was provided throughout i the VOR survey process by KLD Associates, a consulting firm which 4 developed an update to the Evacuation Time Estimate (ETE) for the )
Seabrook Emergency Planning Zone (EPZ). 1 I
The purpose of the VOR survey was to obtain a mean occupancy '
rate for all the vehicles counted. This value was needed as a check on the current estimate of 2.4 persons per vehicle, documented in Volume 6 of the NHRERP. This mean occupancy rate multiplies the number of estimated parking spaces obtained from aerial photographs taken on July 18, 1987 to provide emergency planners with a factual and carefully documented planning base for estimating peak weekend beach populations. .
The results of the VOR survey are as follows: a combined total of 24,637 vehicles (including buses) were counted on July lith and 18th, both Saturdays. These vehicles contained a total of 56,040 occupants. The mean occupancy rate of the vehicles
((h' surveyed was 2.274 occupants per vehicle. This figure differs from the result of a similar survey taken on July 4th and 5th, 1986, by approximately 0.06, or 2.6 percent.
The following is a chronological summary of the entire VOR survey process. It will be divided into three sectionst a description of the preparatory steps taken prior to the actual survey periods; an explanation of the survey procedurest and a description of the survey data analysis.

gt. 3. PREPARATION OF THE SURVEY.
V.9 l
on July 2, 1987,-an instructional meeting was held for all j
i the VOR-observers by the senior consultants coordinating the operation. This meeting immediately preceded the first scheduled
- survey period of Friday and Saturday, July 3 and 4. (NOTE
- Due to inclement weather on both days, it was decided to defer the i survey- to a weekend where hot weather would attract a high beach population.) The purpose of this meeting was to discuss the Y2B j
L Survev Instructions to Observers, a step-by-step guide developed to ensure that all data was recorded in a uniform manner (see l'
Attachment 1), and to issue any equipment necessary to conduct the survey. Each item on the instruction-outline was discussed in detail, with ample time allotted for all participants-to ask questions and/or make suggestions for improvement in the survey 1
process. Equipment was then issued (including portable recording devices with back-up power sources) and tested to ensure
- trouble-free opcration in the field.
i Immediately following this meeting, observer teams were
, dispatched to their assigned VOR locations to conduct a trial survey run. Teams were instructed to follow all procedures .
t exactly as they would during the actual survey periods, During
! the trial run, "rover" teams comprised of survey coordinators I -
visited all the VOR locations to cbserve team activities and j generally be available to respond to questions, provide back-up 1 equipment or provide any other assistance as needed. The trial i
(,, -
run afforded an opportunity to determine if the survey logistics were workable and manageable under actual field conditions.
f- As was the case throughout the survey preparation phase, observers' opinions and/or suggestions were again solicited after i the trial run was completed.
I Conductina the Survey 1
The VOR survey was conducted on two successive Saturdays, July 11 and 18. During the July 11 survey, observers manned all six VOR locations depicted on the VOR Observer Location Man (see Attachment 2). A more detailed depiction of each location is provided by Attachments C through H of Attachment 1. These
! locations were carefully selected to ensure the widest possible i- sampling of traffic ingress to the Hampton (NH), Seabrook (NH),
1 Plus Island (MA) and Salisbury (MA) beach areas. On July 18, observers were located at VOR Locations 2, 3A and 5 only. The
- July 18 sampling ran from 9:30 AM to 12:30 PM. Personnel l assignments for both survey dates can be found on the attached j
VOR Assionment Sheet (7/11) and the 7/16 Memorandum (see e
1 Attachment 3).
There are several factors which led to the decision to I
gig conduct a supplemental survey on July 18. Foremost was the w desire to obtain traffic data to coincide with the aerial 3
4 e
O O (r
s" photography effort taking place at the same time. (NOTE: Aerial photographs of all the coastal areas within the EPZ were taken between 12 Noon and 1:20 PM on July 18.) This desire was partially motivated by past complaints from intervenors in the '
Seabrook Station licensing precess. These complaints allege that information . gleaned from previous aerial photographs (taken July 4, 1986) was rendered invalid because a very limited sampling of vehicle occupancy data, gathered via a field survey of narrower scope, was obtained during the corresponding period.
Another factor was the desire to expand the overall VOR database with the additional data gathered on July 18.
obsiously, the survey results and any assumptions based on them will be more conclusive if they are substantiated by a large and varied data base, provided in this case by an expanded sampling period.
The three VOR locations used for the July 18 survey were chosen based on the results of the previous week's sampling.
These three locations consistently displayed the highest mean occupancy rates and, in most cases, experienced the heaviest -
traffic volu=a (see Vehicle Occucancy Rate Surveys for Maior ,
Beach Access Roads, Attachment 4 for a detailed account of the results for both VOR surveys).
On both survey dates, the prevailing weather conditions were noted by each observation team at all locations. The weather -
({: conditions were both recorded verbally on tape and noted in writing on the VOR tally sheets. Further documentation on the weather conditions was obtained from the National Weather Service for both survey periods (see Attachment 5). Conditions were periodically updated for the duration of the survey. Similarly, each observation team periodically noted the time on the tape recorders and on paper. This was done to simplify the tallying procens and to facilitate an hourly breakdown of the results.
As described in the VOR survey instructions (Attachment 1),
4 the procedures for recoriing both vehicular volume and occupancy were simple and straightforward. Each observer team was supplied J
with a tape recorder and printed tally sheets to record the required data. Documenting the information using these two distinct recording modes was done to provide a cross-reference capability when the data was eventually tabulated. By employing two separate methods of recording (oral and written), each method could be used to substantiate and augment the other during the 4 tabulation phase. l Item number 4 on the instruction sheets (Attachment 1) lists the four classes of information needed for each vehicle counted.
They are in order of priority: number of persons (in vehicle);
vehicle typer turn movement and license plate. In the vast majority of cases, both the oral and written recorders were able 3 (,y to document all four classes of information. During periods of heaviest traffic volume, however, recording of all four data t i
4 .
O -
O.
A a items sometimes proved difficult. At these times, the
%(?
priorititation' system was employed to ensure that the two most critical pieces of information, occupancy and vehicle type, were always recorded. .This information was, in fact, recorded for every vehicle.
Tabulatina the Survev Data After the field survey was completed, each 1.bservation team was responsible for reviewing their own recorded tapes and data sheets. The primary purpose of the review was to ensure consistency between both methods of recording. To this en'd, each team played back the audio tape while following alonc line by line on the tally sheets. If any inconsistencies were discovered between the two data sources, '
they were noted in the appropriate place on the tally sheets. ,
Given the extensive scope'of the survey and the large amount '
of information recorded, there vera relatively few instances of inconsistencies of any type. The sost common ones discovered in the review were casas where the< tally sheet recorder was having difficulty keeping pace with the tape recorder observer. In ,
these cases, the data which was present on the tape and not found
- on the tally sheets was inserted where it belonged. For examplo, if the data recorded on tape for four vehicles was '
"PC-2-right-NH, PC-3-left-MASS, Truck-2-left-MASS, VAN-5-right-MASS" and the data data recorded on the tally sheete QS for the corresponding time frame read "PC-2-right-NH, PC-3-left-MASS, Van-5-right-MASS", it was concluded that the tally sheet recorder was unable to note the third entry on the tape recorder (Truck-2-left-MASS) because of the rapidity of the dictation. To rectify the inconsistency, the observer / reviewer then inserted "Truck-2-left-MASS" between "PC-3-left-MASS" and "Van-5-right-MASS" on the tally sheet. When the tape recording obviously reflected periods of heavy traffic (i.e. the speaker's rate of speech increased), reviewers were autcaatically alerted to the possibility of inconsistencies of this nature.
Conversely, there were a few cases where information on the tally sheets was not evidenced on the tape. In these instances, this information was deleted from the tally sheet, since the writer was instructed to tally only the data dictated by the tape recording observer.
In addition to periodically noting the time on the audio tape, each such observation was also noted on the tally sheets.
This was done to provide a common point of reference for review purposes and to enable the data to be tabulated on an hourly basis.
After the data review process was completed, the reviewers entered the data on the Lummary_1heet for von Tally sheets (see
, Attachment I of Attachment 1). These summary sheets were used to determine a mean vehicle occupancy rate for each hour of the 5
9
i f:73 survey, and to tally the total vehicle number by type. The i
- s methodology for these calculations is indicated on the sheets themselves.
The bus data observed on L7th survey dates were treated [
differently from those for other vehicle types. Although the ;
number of buses counted was entered in the appropriate space on the summary Sheet for VOR Tally Sheets, the number of i on each bus is not reflected in the occupancy section. passengers This is so because the number of passengers per bus varied greatly (from empty to apparently filled to capacity) and because an accurate head count on such a larga vehicle was nearly impossible to obtain. The relatively r, mall number of buses (a total of 30 or approximately 0.1 percent) did not have a significant impact on the mean occupancy rate figures.
The final step in the data tabulation process was the ,
development of Vehicle Occucancy Rate Surveys for Maior Beach Access Roads (Attachment 4) which summarizes in detail the results of both survey dates. Thti summary provides an hourly breakdown on vehicle occupancy for each of the VOR locations manned. It also provides an hourly mean occupancy rate for each.
location. Using the summary, one can easily extract any information they require and do so for any hour of the survey.

. Vehicle occupancy Rste (VOR) Survey l INSTRUCTIONS TO OBSERVERS The vehicle occupancy rate survey is intended to establish a first-hand, accurate account of occupancy data over the course of the survey time frames.
The information obtained during this survey will supplement data peeviuualy obtained for the Seabrook area.
- 1. A Vehicle Occupancy Rate cbservation team will be assigned to specific major intersections as indicated on the attached assignment sheet (Attachment A). Each team will cont at of two sembers; one member will record on-going observations of vehicle occupancy on a dic-taphone, while the second member records the information on formal tally sheets (Attachment B).
- 2. Eact, tesa should estabitsh itself at the appropriate locations as indi-cated on the VOR Location Diagrams (Attachment C through H). These locations have been selected to assist the teams in viewing as many .
f r.coraing vehicles as possible. Many cars at these locations will be
- traveling at a reduced rate of speed, which will also facilitate caservations of vehicle occupants. Observation teams should stand as close to the edge of the road as is necessary to ensure clear visibi-lity of vehicle occupants.
- 3. To begin each recording session, record your name, affiliation, date/ time, specifically where you are located (both VOR number and Street names), and a brief description of current weather conditions.
Be sure to hold the microphone close to your mouth in order to limit interfering traffic sounds. Talk clearly and distinctly.
- 4. There are four (4) classes of information needed for each vehicle counted. These classes, and the associated recorded information, are listed below.
Information Spoken / Recorded Needed Data a) Vehicle Type "PC" (Passenger Car)
"Pick-up" (Truck)
"Van" "RV" "Truck"
" B u s
"Cycle"
" P.1 k e' b) Number of Persons "1" "2"

l' . , e - ..
l O O
\
H Information Needed Spoken / Recorded Oata c) Turn Movement "Through" "Right" "Left" d) License Plate "New Hampshire" "Massachusetts" l "Other" The above information should be recorded in the order listed as a vehicle approaches and passes the observer. An example of recorded data, then, may sound somewhat as follows:
"PC.. 3...Right....Massi... Van.. 1...through.... 0ther;
... Cycle.. 2...Left...New Hampshire;..." Note, however that the primary purpose of the survey is to record data regarding vehicle occupancy rates. As such, should traffic become too heavy to record all of the above information for each vehicle, ensure at a minimum that data re-garding the number of persons is always recorded. Vehicle type, turn -
movement, and license plate origin are of decreasing priority for the .
purposes of this survey, but should be recorded if at all possible.
- 5. During times of heavy traffic, record the current time on t.* '3pe at approximately 10 minute' intervals. This will provide an ir- (cion of the "running time" of the tape. If a long "lull" in the traf t c k) should occur, you may not wish to continue running the tape needlessly; instead place the recorder on pause until traffic resumes. Be sure to note the time when the recorder is turned back on! If weather should change significantly, record the time and nature of the change.
- 6. The traffic entering the coast area is expected to be the heaviest between 9:30.and 11:00. In order to ensure as complete coverage of incoming vehicles as is possible, teams will record continously from 9:00.AM to 11:00 AM; please note the time at 10:00 AM to assist with complilation of the data following the survey. A fifteen-minute break will be taken at 11:00 an. Please record the time on both the tape and the tally sheets when recording resumes at 11:15 AM. All tapes should be labeled on both sides regarding times and VOR Location Number, as appropriate.
- 7. It is not anticipated that our field activities during this survey will attract undue attention from civil or legal authorities. If however, you are questioned as to the nature of your activities, simply reply that you are an observer for a local vehicle survey.
Remain cordial and friendly at all times. Should any situation arise wnich is beyond your capability to control, remove yourself from the location and report by phone to the designated contact person.
- 8. If the weather is pleasant and hot, you may wish to bring some refreshments with you to your site. Under no circumstances should h alcoholic beverages be brought to the intersection or ingested during the course of the survey.

- 9. Schedule - Pre-survey sample. A pre-survey meeting and sample run has been scheduled for July 2nd, 1987. The pre-survey meeting will begin
([$'
+ in the Red Room at 1:30: all teams will be provided equipment and further instructions at that time. Teams will then be dispatched to their respective intersections in order to record a sample run of activity at these sites. This sample run will allow you to famil-larize yourself with your location and the procedures detailed above.
~
If your team is not provided with mechanical recording devices until Friday, simic the use of this machinery during the trial run. 3od practice completing the tally sheets. A coordinating "Rover" tsau will observe your trial set-up procedures at your intersection: the Rovers will begin at VOR Observer Location No. 1, and move south to Observer Location No. 15. Please remain at your designated location until you are observed by the Roving Team.
Survey. The Survey itself is scheduled to be conducted on July 3 and July 4, 1987. However, in the case of inclement weather, the survey may have to be delayed until the following weekend for more attractive weather conditions.
Friday, July 3, 1987: All survey members should report to the Red Room at 7:30 AM. Outstanding equipment will be distributed at that time and any questions raised by the trial run conducted the previous '
day will be answered. Any decision to cancel the July 3 activities due to inclement weather will be made at that time.
Saturday, July 4, 1987: All survey members should again report to the Red Room at 7:30 AM. Cancel'41. ton due to inclement weather will be made at that time, if necessai'f.
C13-During the survey, the "Rover" team will again be observing team acti-vities, and will thereby be available to respond to any questions team members may have, provide backup tapes, sheets, etc. or to assist in any way.
- Posta survey. Team members should review all recorded tapes and data sheets for consistency of recorded information, and complete the VOR Summary Sheets (Attachment I) by July 10, 1987. Oncc this is complete, return all recorders, tapes, and data sheets to Karen Larson.
