Honorable John Sununu

Governor's Office State House Concord, New Hampshire 03301

Dear Governor Sununu:

The undersigned members of ue Hampton Board of Selectmen wish to state their reservations about de adequacy of ue Radiological Emergency Response Plan. These reservations were publicly presented at a meeting of the Board on October 3, j 985, a meeting scheduled between new members of de Board and local department heads, but which wa4 attended by officiaT4 from New Hampshire Civil Defense.

Our original questions about the plan concerned population estimates.

We understand that the figure of 85,000 peak population has been revised to 110,000. a move in the richt direction but stiff fewer than trallic counts and local business Lioures indiente. Perhaps our best cothment on the population figures is that they can only be, an estimate and they will vary widely from day to day, especially on sunner weekends.

Other problems remain. tiera serious are the estimates et the number

_of personnet recuired to ellect an orderiq~ evacuation. Each ot our department heads norted that he lacks suf ficient manpower to carru out _the plan, but e.ach has been told to request additional http from d e State.

.Gich advice appears to have been grven to each town in de zone; obviously bherewillnotbeenoughworkerstogoaround. As a cottary to the numbers required, dere are no provisions for securitu for workers' homes and families nor does uere seen to be v.tovision for specializec' equipment erker uan dosimeters. It is unclear if the. count on dosimeters is a State ozal or a town by town tot.:t, as our radiological officer said that he could obtain att the equipment needed in a matter of a few hours. Is more protective apparctus, such as suits or gicves or breathing apparatus, neededt Another serious consideration is the lack 08 comuniention and coordination in moving school children out of the area. On October 3 the statement was made that crurt vefense is working with school of ficials; 3401230471 351029 l

I already over-toaded with daily winter traffic. Att town 4 in the arca will rely on thest routes to get to 1-95; it simply cannot be dont i

safetyorquickly. Nucitar plant owners and regulators have known for cuer six ytars that tvacuation plans would be noro mry; during thint time no sereuswork has been dont on stacoast roads nor do there 4eem to be i

plans to improve these roads significantly.

In conclusion, uis plan utms to be written primarity to justify 1

the requirement that a plan exist rather dan to make a serious attempt to evacuate an endangered citizentry. R have touched on what ute to us to be primary and basic wechatsus. Added to 6tu is the generat l

j distrust of our citizen 4 towards the owntra o(lts deliotted during utthe plant, inconsisteneits between promius netdt and resu 1

construction process.

k would respectfully urgt that you consider not approving dis plan; but if you must, nat you do with de understanding that you are opposing the Atcomendation of 6t majority of the Hampton Board af i

Settetmen. Thank you for your consideration.
