INDIAN POINT FIANS VERIFICATION ANALYSIS Unpublished Report Prepared by Energy and Erwirorrnental Systems Division Argonne National Laboratory .

for Federal Bnergency Managenent Agency Region II .

April,1983

INIRODUCTION 1.1 'SCX)PE OF THE VERIFICATION ANALYSIS In preparation for the exercise of the Indian Point Radiological hergency Response Plans in March 1983, an effort was made to verify the infomation contained in the Radiological hergency Response Plans for Orange, Putnam and Westchester Counties. Nine categories of facilities were surveyed: bus empanies, reception centers, congregate care centers, public schools, non-public schools and day care centers, school districts, hospitals and nursing hmes to be evacuated, hospitals, and ambulance cm-panies. Facilities throughout Orange, Putnam and Westchester Counties were-surveyed. This survey was stated on January 19, 1983 and completed on February 22, 1983. The purpose of this document is to assist FB% Region II in verifying the availability and training of resources set forth in the county radiological emergency response plans.

At the start of the verification effort, Rockland County had not completed a radiological emergency preparedness plan. Consequently, there was no listing of facilities in Rockland County that would participate in a radiological emergency response. For this reason, Roc 151and County was not included in the verification analysis.

Time, manpower, and financial constraints made it prohibitive to question each of the facilities with responsibilities in the plans. There-fore, a detemination was made to sample the nine categories of facilities outlined above. Lists of those facilities as designated in the plans were complied for each county. From these lists facilities to be surveyed were randomly sampled.

1.2 SELECTION OF SAMPLES The following guidelines were used to set the size of the saple taken for each facility and each county *:

Population size Sample size _

1 i 2-4 2 5-6 3 7-20 4 21-54 5 55 and up 10% rounded to nearest integer Tnese guidelines were constructed with the guidance of FBR Region 11 staff. They were influenced by the time, manpower, and financial constraints mentioned aboved. As the size of the population decreases, a

. larger percentage of the total cases must be included in the saple to adequately estimate the population parmeters (variables) under study.

Accordingly, the . proportion of the population sapled ranges from 100%

(where the population of interest in a county is two or less) to 10% (where the population of interest in a county is 50 or greater). A total of 98 facilities were included in the saple.

In an actspt to avoid introducing undue bias into the saple, a simple randomizing technique was used to select the fa'cilities to be s apled.

1.3 SIGNIFICANCE OF THE RESUL'IS Table 1 sumarizes the population and sample sizes for the study.

The statistical significance of .the results of selected questions are in-cluded in Tables 2 through 10. This analysis was performed for questions about training, contact with state or county authorities, and several other

patients were included in the survey.

subjects.

Tha tabics contain confidence interval (ranges) ~ and. confidence level infomation. for example, 1 out of 5 schools sampled from a population of 36 schools (see Table 6, question 4 for Westchester County) had been trained in evacuation procedures; an 89% confidence interval for the pro- portion of schools that have been trained as (0.03, 0.56). In this case, the confidence interval ranges from 0.03 to 0.56 for the proportion trained, and the confidence level is 89%.

These confidence intervals were constructed by first observing that the hypergeometric distribution properly describes the probabilities of observing the various outcomes while sampling (without replacement) fewer than all of the members of a finite population. It is important to use this distribution when the population of interest is small or the percent sa:npled is large (both usually apply here) in order to obtain correct results and conclusions.

The theory of confidence intervals was used to construct upper and lower bounds for the estimated parameters; these bounds are influenced by the size of the population of interest, the ntaber of samples taken, and the observed results.

When confidence interval statenents are made, there are usually two

! of then: an approximate 90% confidence interval, and a 100% confidence interval. The 100% confidence interval is not a statistical device, but represents the possible best and worst cases implied by the sample. Tne approximate 90% confidence intervals are statistical devices; they are

. approximate due to the discrete nature of the hypergeometric distribution (i.e. , it deals with integer nunbers) . It is not possible or meaningful to construct an approximate 90% confidence interval when the population of interest is too small. This is not a problen if all or almost all of the population can be sampled; in such a case, an exact (or nearly exact) -

estinate can be obtained.

. I 1.4 CHOICE OF CONFIDENCE INTERVALS Confidence intervals usually can be located at any number of places in the allowable interval. The following principles were used to set the confidence intervals listed in this report:

e The confidence level was made to be as close as possible to the 90% level; at this level, confidence interval statements will, on the average, be correct 90% of the time; correct means that the stated confidence interval contains the true value of the parameter of interest.

a e if moving the confidence interval a small distance to the right of the lowest possible value (see Fig. 1) decreases the maximum confidence level below about 85%, then the low end of the- confidence interval is set at the lowest possible value (i.e., the 86% confidence interval is appropriate). This is so because the observed result is very likely to occur if the true proportion is 0.07.-

e A similar argument applies to locating the confidence interval if the observed proportion is near 1.0, as illustrated in Fig. 2 ; the 88% confidence interval, which

~

has its high end at the highest possible value, is the i

appropriate choice.

e When it is possible, the confidence interval is " shortened" ,

at both ends as illustrated in Fig.3. In this case, there

is 95% confidanca that tha trua proportion is graster t;han or equal to 0.18, 95% confidence that it is less than or equal to 0.63, and 90% confidence that it is in the range 0.18 to 0.63. A qualitative argument for preferring the 90% confidence interval over the 89% confidence interval in Fig. 3 is that the 90% interval is more conservative in estimating the upper bound on the proportion; this seems to be appropriate since the observed proportion is 0.38.

2 RESULiS UF THE SURVEY Of the 98 facilities randmly selected, 88 responded to the survey. The other facilities either declined to answer any questions, were not available for ' oment, c _ or did not respond for other reasons. The analysis which follows is based on the empleted interviews of the facili-

. ties that we were able to question.

2.1 BUS O MPANIES .

Nine bus empanies -- 60% of the companies listed in the Indian Point county plans -- responded to the survey. Of these nine cmpanies:

e 7 (78%) had been contacted by the state or county concerning the plan e 50% of the cmpanies sapled had garages located within the 1

EPZ e 1 (11%) of the companies had at least one driver who had been.

trained in radiological mergency response preparedness

e 2 (22%) of those sapled had such training scheduled Orange County .

Tnere are three bus empanies in Orange County that are desig-nated to assist in an evacuation, and all three were included in the saple. The plan, however, is organized so that one cmpany is responsible for contacting the other two cmpanies. The cmpany that is responsible O

for contacting the other two cmpanies uns not aware of this systs. We were unable to contact the other two companies. The one empany that was questioned had been contacted by the county concerning the plan. It had not receiv3d any training on radiological mergency response preparedness, but such training was scheduled. The empany did not have information as to evacuee pick-up locations nor were dosimeters available for drivers.

Putnam Cxnty Of the five bus companies to be surveyed in Putnam County, one refused to answer questions without compensation and we were not able to contact a second company. TW of the three cmpanies that completed the survey indicated that they had been contacted by the state or county concerning the Indian Point plan. None of these three cmpanies had been trained on radiological emergency response preparedness, but one company indicated that such training was scheduled. One cm pany had information on evacuee pick-up locations available for drivers. No cmpany had dosimeters l

available for drivers.

l .

Westchester County Seven bus companies in Westchester County were included in the plan and all were to be surveyed. We were unable to contact one company, and another company refused to answer the questionnaire. Four of the five companies that completed the survey indicated that they had been contacted by the state or county concerning the plan. The survey indicated that one driver in one company had been trained, and.no other training sessions were scheduled at that time. Four of the companies had information on evacuee pick-up locations avaI.lable for drivers, and one had dosimeters available -

for drivers.

2.2 RECEPTION CENIERS Twelve of the 53 facilities designated to serve as reception cen-ters were included in the sa:nple, and 11 responded to the survey. Of these facilities:

e 9 (82%). of those contacted were aware that their building was designated as a reception center e None of the respondents know who would be in charge of the reception center e All of the facilities were schools e 7 (78%) had plans for their students if the building was to be used. as a reception center ,

Orange County All four of the schools sampled in Orange County were aware thst they had been designated as reception centers. One of the four schools sa:npled knew who would notify them if it beca:ne necessary to activate this building as a reception center. None of the schools knew who would be in charge of operations at the reception center. Tnree of the schools res-ponding had plans for their students (e.g. dismissal of schools) if the building was to be used as a reception center.

Putnam County Of the three schools questioned in Putna:n County, each was aware that their building had been designated as a reception center. None of the schools knew who would notify them if it beca:ne necessary to activate their ,

building as a reception center, and none of"the schools knew who would be in charge of ~ operations at the reception center. All of those schools responding had plans for their students (e.g. , dis:nissal of school) if the building was to be used as a reception center.

Westchester County .

Five schools designated as reception centers in the plan were chosen for the saple in Westchester County. Of these schools, one was found to have been closed in 1979, one refused to accept the responsibility of serving as a reception center, and one did not want to answer the questionnaire by telephone. Both of the two other schools were aware that their building had been designated as a reception center. One of these schools knew who would notify the if it became necessary to activate this building as a reception center. Neither school knew who would be in charge of operations at the reception center, but both had plans for their students (e.g, dismissal of school) if the building was to be used as a reception center.

2.3 00NGRB RTE CARE CENIERS Seventeen of the 119 facilities designated to serve as congregate care centers were sampled. Of those questioned:

e 11 (65%) were aware that their building was designated as a congregated care center ,

e 10 (59%) indicated that they did not know who would notify the that the building was to be activated as a congregate care center e 9 (54%) of the schools sampled had plans for their students if the building was to be used as a congregate care center e

Orange County Our cample included four schools designated to serve as congre-gate care centers in Orange County. Each of these schools responded to the survey. Three of the schools were aware of their inclusion in the plan, but each respondent had a different idea as to who would notify them if it became necessary to activate their building as a congregate care center.

All of the schools had plans for their students if the building was to be used as a congregate care center.

Putnam County In Putnam County, of the five facilities sampled, two were aware that their building had been designated as a congregate care center. Four of the facilities indicated that they did not know who would notify the if it became necessary to activate their building as a congregate care center.

Two of the schools (there was one hospital in the sample) had plans for their students if it became necessary to activate their buildings as con-gregate care centers.

Westchester County 3

Of the eight schools sampled in Westchester County, six were aware that they were designated as congregate care centers in the plan.

Five did not know stio would notify the if it became necessary to activate their building as a congregate care center. Three of the schools.had plans for their students if their building was needed as a congregate care center. ,

2.4 PUBLIC SCH001S 'IO BE EVACUATED -

Of the 50 public schools that would need to be evacuated,10 were chosen for the sample, and 9 responded to the survey. Of these 9 schools:

e All but one school had been contacted regarding .the Indian Point plan e 2 (22%) reported having received some training in evacuation procedures e 2 (22%) had such training scheduled e 6 (66%) of the schools had tone-alert radios Orange County ,

Three Orany,e County public schools to be evacuated were chosen in our random sample of all such schools to be evacuated in this , county. Two of the three Orange County public schools in our sample had been contacted regarding their roles in the Indian Point Radiological Energency Response Plan; the third school reported not havirg been contacted. Two of the three public schools reported .having had staff trained in the procedures for evacuating the schools; the third responded nep,atively to this ques-tion. Finally, two of the three public school respondents reported having a tone alert radio in their schools; the third facility reported not having a radio in the school.

e

Putnan County In Putna County two of the four public schools to be evacuated were included in the survey. Both of the Putna County public schools in our saple had been contacted regarding their roles in the Indian Point Radiological Energency Response Plan. Nei'ther of these two public schools reported having had staff personnel trained in procedures for evacuating the schools. Finally, one of the two public schools reported having a tone alert radio in the school. Tne other school reported not having such a radio in the office.

.Westch ester County .

Five Westchester Cou'nty public schools to be evacuated were ques-tiened in the survey. Four of these schools were willing to answer our questions over the telephone. The other public school preferred to submit l written responses to our questions and is consequently not included in the findings discussed here. Each of the reaining four Westchester County public schools in our saple had been contacted regarding their roles in the Indian Point Radiological Energency Response Plan. None of these four public schools reported having had staff trained in the procedures for evacuating the schools. Three of the four public schools reported having a tone alert radio in the schools.

2.5 NON-PUBLIC SCHOOLS, NURSERY SCHOOLS, AND DAY CARE CmfERS .

'IO BE EVACUATED Nine of the 41 non-public schools, nursery schools, and day care centers to be evacuated were sapled. Of the nine schools surveyed:

e 8 (Almost 90%) of the schools indicated that they had been contacted regarding the Indian Point plan e 2 (22%) of those schools ~ questioned had received sme training in evacuation procedures e No schools had training sessions planned e 7 (78%) of the schools had tone-alert radios Orange County Two Orange County non-public schools, nursery schools, or day care centers to be evacuated were included in our suple. One of these supled facilities had been contacted regarding its role in the Indian Point Radiological Buergency Response Plan. The respondent for the other facility did not know if it had been contacted. One of the two facilities reported its staff having received sme training in procedures for evacuat-

. ing its school. The other facility did not know if the sr.aff at that school had been given training. One facility had a , tone-alert radio, and expected to be contacted with it in the event of an mergency. Tne other facility reportedly had received no radio, and expecta to be contacted by telephone.

2.7 SPECIAL FACILITIES TO BE EVACllATED Seven of the 23 hospitals and nursing homes to be evacuated were surveyed. Of the 7 hospitals surveyed:

e 6 (86%) had been contacted by the state or county e 3 (43%) had received same training in evacuation procedures e All of the facilities had tone-alert radios e 3 (43%) of the facilities did not know where their residents would.be taken in an evacuation Orange County Since there is only one special facility in Orange County that may need to be evacuated, our survey is based on a 100% sample. This facility had not been contacted by the state or county, had not been trained in evacuation procedures, was not aware of any future training sessions, and did not knwo who would contact it if an evacuation were necessary. It 'id have a tone-alert radio and a sufficient nmber of vehicles to execute an evacuation, but it did not know to which reception center to take its residents.

Similarly, in Putnam County there are only two special facilities  ;

that will need to be evacuated, and both were surveyed. Both facilities had been contacted by the state or county. Neither facility had been trained in evacuation procedures, but one said that training sessions are planned. One facility knew who would contact it if an evacuation were necessary, and both facilities had tone-alert radios. Neither facility knew how many additional vehicles were needed for an evacuation. One of the two facilities knew where its residents would be taken.

Westchester County Four of the 20 special facilities in Westchester County were sampled. All of' these facilities had been contacted by the state or county, and three facilities reported their staffs as having received some training in procedures for evacuating the residents in their facilities.

Three facilities reported that additional training sessions were pianned.

One of the facilities knew who would contact them if an evacuation were -

necessary. Each facility had a tone-alert radio. All of the facilities indicated that additional vehicles were needed for an evacuation. Tnree of the four facilities indicated they knew where their residents would be taken during an evacuation.

)

tals listed in the plan: ,

o All but one hospital was aware that the hospital may be used for the mergency treatment of patients if there is an mergency at the Indian Point Nuclear Power Stations.

e 4 Two-thirds of the hospitals had staff trained for radiological emergencies e All of the hospitals had standard operating procedures for treating containated patients Orange County Two hospitals are listed in the Orange County plan as being capable of treating radiologically contaminated patients, and both were in-cluded in the sample. Both hospitals were aware that they may be used for the sergency treatment of patients if there is a proble at Indian Point, and both had been contacted by the state or county. One hospital said that it knew who would notify it to prepare to receive contaminated patients.

The staff of each hospital was trained for radiological emergencies, and each has standard operating procedures for treating contaminated patients.

4 Putna County The one hospital in Putn a County that is listed in the plan was surveyed. While it had been contacted by the county, it was not aware that it may be used for the mergency treatment of radiologically contaminated patients. It did not know who would notify the hospital to prepare to.

receive such patients. The hospital staff has not been trained for radio-logical mergencies, but there were standard operating procedures for treating conta inated patients.

Westchester County Westchester County has three hospital's listed in the plan to treat radiologically containated patients--each was surveyed. All were aware that the hospital may be used for the mergency treatment of patients, and two had been contacted by the state or county. Each hospital responded differently when asked who would notify it to prepare to receive containated patients. Two hospitals were trained for radiological ser-gencies. All had standard operating procedures for treating such patients. -

Of the 89 ambulance companies and volunteer ambulance corps -

listed in the plan, 14 were included in the sample. Nine surveys were empleted for these expanies. Of the reaining five ambulance companies in the sample; three no longer exist, one company was not operating at the time of the survey, and we were unable to contact one cmpany that is still in existence despite repeated attspts to do so. Of the cmpleted nine surveys:

e 5 (56%) were aware that they were designated to respond to radiological mergencies e 6 (Two-thirds) of the cmpanies had been contacted by the state or county e None of the ambulances are equipped with monitoring devices or potassim iodide (KI) - .

  • Almost 80% of the ambulance espanies had at least one crew that had been trained for radiological mergencies e 3 (33%) of the crews had been trained in the care and treatment of radiological injured or contaminated patients e 2 (22) of the capanies had standard operating procedures for

- ambulance crews treating radiologically injured patients O

e

Orange County Five ambulance companies were included in the sample for Orange County. Of these five, one has been disbanded and because we were unable to contact anyone who was aware of its existence, a second cmpany was also assuned to have been disbanded. One of the reaining three espanies was aware that it had been designated in the plan to respond to radiological emergencies at Indian Point. One company had been contacted by the county.

The ambulance crews of two of the three cmpanies were trained for radiological mergencies. No ambulances were equipped with monitoring devices ~or KI.

Putnam County In Putnam County, four ambulance cmpanies were surveyed -- all were associated with local fire departnents. Three of those questioned were aware that their espany was designated in the plan to respond to radiological mergencies, and three had been contacted by the state or county. All of the ambulance crews had received training for radiological emergencies. No ambulances were equipped with monitoring devices or KI.

Westchester County Five ambulance empanies in Westchester County were chosen to be sampled. . One of these companies no longer exists. A second cmpany re-cently switched fra an affiliation with a police department to a private

\

1 e

e volunteer group, and it has had no contact with anyone regarding the Indian Point plan. A third ambulance cmpany is still operating but despite repeated attepts to reach an official of this espany, we were unable to do so. One of the other two cmpanies was aware that it may be involved in an evacuation at Indian Point, and both of these companies had .been contacted by the state or county. One of the two companies had been trained for radiological emergencies. No ambulances were equipped with inonitoring devices or KI.

2.10 PERSONNEL lONITORING CENIERS Based upon an examination of the Orange County, Westchester County, and revised Putnam county plans, it was determined that personnel monitoring centers will be established as needed and where needEd during a radiological emergency. Attachment 11 in Sec. 3 (Health) of the Orange County plan reads in part:

During a radiological mergency, the County Comissioner of Health is responsible for the radiological exposur,e control of mergency response personnel. Activities associated with this responsibility include, but are not limited to, the following:

. . . 7. Establishing facilities for the decontamination of exposed energency personnel.

The new Putnam County plan states:

Personnel monitoring centers will be established at the time of an mergency outside but near the 10 mile EPZ. Locations will be comunicated at the time to mergency team leaders and super-visors. (Attachment 12, County Radiological Officer) ,

l l

Accordingly, since no sites have been designated as personnel monitoring centers, it was impossible to survey such centers.

In Westchester County, at the time of the verfication survey, the county plan did not indicate where personnel monitoring centers will be located. Subsequent revisions to the plan state:

2.1 Appropriate personnel monitoring centers will be established and operational unless the determination is made by the County Chief Executive that none are needed because of the absence of a release of radioactive material sufficent to cause a contamination proble.

2.2 Personnel monitoring centers will be activated at the time of an mergency outside the 10 mile EPZ. Activation and locations will be communicated to mergency team leaders and supervisors and Comissioner/ Sheriff in the event traffic control is required at PMC locations. The P11C for County Emergency Workers is currently, the West-chester County Fire Training Center, Dana Road, Valhalla, I N.Y. (Section 3, Attachment 13),

l Since the facility at the Westchester County Fire Training Center was not

! ~

originally included in the plan, the verification sample could not include the facility.
