The owners of establishments that hase opened in the last 15 years, and who base their livelihoods on the business of plant workers would have been smart to have first checked into the plant's future. I don't think the town will suffer a hardship because one or 2 ,

The Patnot Ledger .

BOSTON - The regional office of the Federal ,

Emergency hianagement Agency will recommend keep.

disaster plans are significantly improved, according to I sources. ,

. A highly placed state official said yesterday that h  !

current plans. by TEhtA standards. "would not adequate-ly protect the public health and safety in the eve nt of an I i

accident."

g Two other officials confirmed that FEhtA's Nertheast omee has concluded that the Nuclear Regulatory Com. ~ l mission should revoke Pilgrim's license to operate under the esisting plans.

"We understand unofncially that (FEMA) says the plans are inadequate." a state omeial confirmed yester.

day. "We saw this coming. ! don't think there is any way they can recommend approval."

l None of the three state ofncials who confirmed the i report would agree to be identified.

If the N3C follows the recommendation, Boston Edison's hope of restarting Pilgrim in September would likely be dashed. Revisions to the plana could take months.

"I think a more realistic date for Edison la December "

! o e state ofncial said.

The FEhtA regional omee la espected to complete a 10 month study of h Pugrim emergency plans by tomorrow. A FEhtA spokesman yesterday reAased to comment on the recommendations that att be made.

The Northeast office will send a draft report to the ageney's Washington headquarters for additenal com-

• ments and approval Any recommendations made by the region could be changed or overtuled by the Washington .

August 20, 1987 Mr. R. Boulay:

Director of Civil Defense Agency Commonwealth of Massachusetts 400 Norcester Road P.O. Box 1496 -

Framingham, MA 01701-0317

Dear Mr. Boulay:

This will confirm our discussions it our August 3 meeting concerning your letters of July 24, 198/ to the Ftleral Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory CoenirLion (NRC). Those letters discussed the reconfiguration of the plume expos are pathway Emergency Planning Zone (EPZ) for the Pilgrie Nuclear Power Station (Pilgrim) to include the entire toivns of Carver and Marshfield.

As we have discussed, the updatint and upgrading of the emergency plans and procedures applicable to the arent cornprised within the NRC-approved EPZ 4t Pilgrim require the immediato atti niion of the Comonwealth and Boston Edison. Accordingly, we agreed tt nork with each other and with the affected towns so that the enhancements to ttose plans and procedures can be accomplished at the earliest prac'.itable date.

As was also recognized at the mee thg, additional emergency planning for areas outside of the current Pilgrim EP. tan also be desirable, although such l planning would reflect a graded a; proach and may no.t be of the same scope and '

detail as is required by the NRC *1 thin the EPZ. Accordingly, Boston Edison and the Comonwealth also agreed o work with each other and the towns of Carver and Marshfield toward iden idying and implementing appropriate >1anning beyond 'the boundaries of the curr n'; EPZ. A reasonable schedule will se developed for such efforts that r cogn12es the higher priority of the enhancement and efforts for funding available theCoon to the exist n!)

n plans and the finite resources, manpower ivealth and the towns.

Boston Edison appreciates the spis it of cooperation that has emerged in our recent meetings and pledges its b st efforts to assure that prompt actions are taken to upgrade e'nergency prepar daess capability both within and beyond the EPZ.

Primary containmont venting is required for pressure control only:

o When all other decay heat removal mechan!sms 1

combined are inadequate.

o When' primary containment ressure is well beyond that calculated for any design basis accident. l e When the structural ca 3 ability of the containment is threatened, directly or ndirectly.

, When plant conditions have so degraded, the operating  !

crew cannot reasonably rely upon a fortuitous turn of

)

events to reverse the situation, ,

i Not venting will, lacking the fortuitous turn of events, result in primary containment failure and most probably i

loss of adequate core cooling and core damage, 1

Venting will result in preservation of crimary containment i integrity for as long as possible and n.ost probably

continued adequate core cooling without core damage.

ANALYSES TEND TO SELECT "WELL DdFINED" ACCIDENT SCENARIOS - THE ACTUAL CASE MAY BE MORE COMPLEX IN TERMS OF SYSTEMS BEING TEMPORARILY OR PARTIALLY AVAILABLE. THE EOPs HELP THE OPERATOR RESPOND TO THE SYMPTOMS AND A VENTING INSTRUCTION MEANS EVERYTHING ELSE HAS BEEN TRIED. WITH THESE -

SUMMARY

Venting is appropriate under the conditions specified in the BWROG Emergency Procedure Guidelines.

Industry and NRC studies show that venting contributes substantially to the protection of the reactor core.

Industry and NRC studies show that venting the wetwell under severe accident conditions would limit the environmental releases to essentially noble gases.  !

I Considering the uncertainties associated with severe accidents,  ;

venting would generally aid recovery actions.

Dear Representative Alexander:

I have carefully' reviewed the letter signed by you and'll other Massacht'setts legislators requesting that we not proceed with refueling until the Nuclear Regulatory Comission has approved restart of P11gris Station.

I appreciate your interest in ensuring that all steps necessary to prote:t public asalth and safety are, in fact, taken during the restart process. Let

, as assure you that I share your concerns.

It is teportant to point out, however, that there are a number of important review items and tests that are required prior to the consany's request for restart which can only be completed after refueltag.- hfueling is an integral part of the restart process a careful, deliberate and closely supervised refueling, program. and we have instituted

.As part of that program Ralph Bird senior vice president in I consultationwithhissenior, managers,ddnotproceeduntilbolhheandI 4

. wore satisfied that issues identified in regard to refueling were resolved to  !

our satisfaction. The hold on refueling last weekend was. tie result of our . l

.. review process and high11 hts the very conservative approach we are taking on'.. .

• . 'c. ",,t he s e i s.' v e s . It should e noted thal all refueling and restart activities . ... .

Dear Mr. Sweeney,

v.. writ. re.ardini t e sene.rns iha we h.ve , ort.atos to th.111erim

Nuclear Power Plant. .

First, we urge your aospany to refrain from refueling the Pilgria Nuclear q Power Plant at the g. resent time. We support the recommandation of gecretary

of Public Safety Charles Barry that P(1 grim not be refueled until researc of the plant has been approved, due to the "sessurable inere;se la the risk of an assident" th'at refueling would pose, i

In view of the finding of the Federal Emergency Management Agency that outsting evacuation plans for Pilgrim are inadequate, we also urge you to abide by the recessmandation of the Legislature's Spesial Ceumittee en Pilgrimi J whtah urged that the Pilgria Nuclear Fever Plant met restart until and unless ,

en emergency preparedness plan, including evaeustiets has been approved by 4

the selsetzen in the emergency preparedness sene seamunities and by .the

! Governor. It would pose an unacceptable risk to our sonstituents acrees this state for you to restart the plant without such a satisfactory energency .

preparedness plan in place.

1 We hope you will agree to our requests. Thank you very such for sivins then your most aareful eensideration. We look forward to hearing fres you seen. '

i i 'Best wishes.
