STATEMENT OF MATERIAL FACTS AS TO WHICH THERE IS NO DISPUTE

1. The Special Needs Survey conducted by the NHCDA in March,-1986 served to identify persons within the 17 communities of the Seabrook Station EPZ who do not have access to a private vehicle and who, therefore, may require.

transportation assistance at the time of an. emergency.

2.. The ASLB, in its order or November 4, 19b6, found this survey to be an adequate procedure for identifying persons who may require special assistance.

3. Volumes 16 through 32 of the NHRERP comprise all of n, the 17 New Hampshire' Town RERPs. In Section IV of each plan, an attachment to the Transportation Coordinator's (or equivalent responsible individual) procedure provides the individual town transportation requirements. Included in. i each list is a category entitled " Residents Requiring  !

Transportation", which identifies the number of people s

within this category and the number of buses that have been allotted to meet their needs. These requirements are not based on an assumption of a specific percentage of the population without cars, but are obtained directly from the NHCDA Special Needs Survey.which the ASLB has previously ruled adequate-(11/4/86 ASLB Memorandum and Order) in identifying persons with special needs, including residents who may require transportation.

4. In each case, the capacity of buses allotted-surpasses the number of residents who have indicated that

.i

.i

k they may require transportation assistance. (A minimum of three buses have been allotted to each town regardless of the fact that this capacity far exceeds the rquirements in several cases.) The totality of bus resources, on which the plans rely, is confirmed by letters of agreement contained in Volume 5 of the NHRERP.

5. The allotment of transportation resources does not consider the phenomenon known as " ride sharing" which assumes that people will, in an emergency, obtain rides in the personal vehicles of other evacuees.
6. NHCDA has committed to the FEMA RAC to include language in public information materials and in EBS messages requesting people to provide assistance to others who may be in need.
7. NHRERP, Volume 2 (Appendices), contains in Appendix I (pg. I-3) a summary listing of transportation resource requirements. The total number of buses shown in this summary listing (as well as in a similar summary listing contained in Appendix I of Volume 4) does not reflect an adjustment that was made in the total number of buses allotted in the Town of Exeter RERP. This will be corrected. This discrepancy does not, however, impact on the sufficiency of the total bus capacity that is provided for persons who may require transportation assistance.

Furthermore, these figures will continually be updated to c.

e remain current with changes in transportation. requirements

-as they become know by further identification of needs.
