ANNEX D PLANT V0GTLE TO TiiE GEORGIA RADIOLOGICAL EMERGENCY PLAN FEBRUARY 1986  ;

(

o State of G w rgia REP - Annex D Page 1 ANNEX D Alvin W. Vogtle Nuclear Plant l

This annex addresses emergency planning and response actions related to any l elease or potential release of radioactive material in excess of nomal i operating levels which may affect areas beyond the controlled area of the I A. W. Vogtle Nuclear Plant, Burke County, Georgia. l l

l The general concept of operation for development and implementation of the Georgia Radiological Emergency Response Plan (GA REP) and supporting site specific annexes, is essentially the same as for any other emergency or disaster response planning conducted by the State of Georgia. Specifically, the Georgia Natural Disaster Operations Plan (NDOP) pmvides for coordinated .

planning and response actions by all state agencies related to peacetime l emergencies. The Executive Order contained in the NDOP assigns primary and i support responsibilities for emergency and disaster services to state agencies based on their usual or nomal functions and/or special capabilities. The Georgia Emergency Management Agency is designated as the agency to coordinate the activities of all state organizations in preparing for, and responding to an emergency or disaster situation. (See Preface and Page 23 of the Base Plan.)

Initial response to any emergency situation is a local responsibility. State  !

assistance will be provided when requested by the local jurisdiction, or when  !

local capability to respond is clearly inadequate. Regardless of whether or not the local jurisdiction has requested state assistance, the Governor may  ;

1 declare a state of emergency and direct that the state assume contml of  ;

emergency operations. l In a radiological emergency at a fixed nuclear facility, it is recognized that

, local capability to respond is limited and state assistance would probably be required. This annex provides for the notification of, and if necessary, the rapid deployment of state response elements to a near site facility which is

designated as the GEMA Fomard Emergency Operating Facility. The state response element has the capability to operate on a 24-hour basis, both from

~

the Fomard Emergency Operating Center and State Emergency Operating Center in Atlanta. This capability for round-the-clock operation is based on current

staffing in principal state response agencies using a 12-hour shift. It is anticipated that augmentation from appropriate federal agencies would be required to assist in radiological monitoring and assessment operations after 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />. Accordingly, an early state request for federal assistance would be based on the seriousness of the situation and the estimated duration of the emergency.

l The local plan is an integral part of this annex and addresses specific

, responsib111 ties and actions o" local authorities in responding to a radiological emergency at a fixed nuclear facility.

D. Manpower, Equipmen and Instroent Resources This section deal , with coordination of available msources during a l

i radiological emergency. Resources are generally available from four distinct sources, i.e., f ederal, state and local government agencies and private fims/orsanizations.

1. Federal Agency Support /CooMination i Federal assistance available to offsite authorities in the event of a radiological emergency at a nuclear power plant would be coordinated by three lead federal agencies in accordance with the Federal Radiological Emergency Response Plan (FRERP). These agencies are the U.S. Department of Energy (DE), the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEM) and the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC). OT ,

supports affected state and local governments by coordinating initial federal radiological monitoring and assessment efforts offsite. FE m coordinates assistance f rom all other federal agencies except NRC.

' NRC is designated as the Cognizant Federal Agency (CFA), and as such, monitors the action of the utility and evaluates public protective i

action recomendations made by the utility. Federal assistance to the State of Georgia during a radiological incident may be requested by

' the Governor of the State of Georgia, the State Disaster Coordinator

  • or the State Radiological Emergency Coordinator, or their designees.

Resources expected to be made available in the event of such a request are outlined in the FRERP.

l E. Radiation Protection This section addresses three principal radiological planning asper.ts:

accident assessment, protect.ive response and radiological exposure control. Recovery and re-entry planning is addressed in Section VI.H. of the Base Plan.

1. Accident Response and Assessment
a. Deployment of State Response Element (Rapid Assessment)

Because the capability of local personnel for initial assessment and monitoring is limited, a State Response Element egy be i dispatched by aircraf t directly to the GEMA Forward EOC (FEOC).

l The State Response Element will normally be composed of the Executive Director of GEMA, the DNR-EPD Radiation Emergency Coordinator, a DHR Radiological Health representative and additional support personnel from these agencies as required within space limitations. In accordance with the Georgia Natural Disaster Operations Plan (NDOP ), GEMA will coordinate the l

activities of all state agencies involved in emergency response.

Direction and control of emergency operations while the State Response Element is in transit will be exercised from the State EOC in Atlanta. Personnel in this element will arrive on site ,

t within flight time plus approximately thirty minutes for initial  !

j mobilization. Additional support personnel and equipment including the GEMA Mobile Command Post and the DNR-EPD mobile laboratory will arrive within driving time plus thirty minutes for initial mobilization. The GEM Mobile Connand Post will normally

be utilized as a communications backup facility and will be
located near the GEMA FEOC. When operational, the State Response Element will assume control of all operations at the GEMA FEOC.

4 The State EOC in Atlanta will revert to a support role upon activation of the FEOC. Radiological assessment operations will be conducted as discussed below.

l,

b. Deployment of State Response Element (Rapid Assessment Not l Required) j

> In the event of an incident requiring implementation of this plan, but not requiring rapid assessment capability, deployment of the n State Response Element will nonnally be by surface C transportation. The composition of the State Response Element and concept of operation will be essentially the same as in rapid assessment. Radiological assessment operations will be the responsibility of a . primary team consisting of technically qualified personnel from the EPD-Radiation Program and the DHR-Radiological Health Section. The primary team will be under the connand/ control of the EPD-Radiation Emergency Coordinator who

( will be designated as Team Captain. Personnel will carry a complement of portable radiation detectors and protective equipment. The EPD mobile lab will be placed on alert.

State of Gscrgia j REP - Annex D .

)

i to ma ke Once on the scene, the -imary team will be in a posit on l

' recommendations to the Team Captain regarding the need for additional radiological escurces. Additional resources for use in radiological survey parties and envirorsnental sample collection  ;

are available from such state agencies as Department of Agriculture, Department of Human Resourt:es, Department of Defense i (GEML), Department of Public Safety and Forestry Consnission.

c. Facility Operator Responsibility In the event of an accident at Plant Vogtle, Georgia Power personnel have the responsibility for initial accident assessment and notification actions based on that assessment. In Section A of this plan notification procedures are delineated. Provisions are made in these notification procedures for insnediate notification to local authorities prior to notification to the state under certain incident conditions (i.e., General Emergency). If the local authorities are notified, it is the i responsibility of the Georgia Power Compaq Plant Vogtle staff to infom the local authorities of reconsnended initial protective actions.

I

! d. Radiological Assessment (1) Procedures Offsite dose projections will be perfomed by a Radiological Emergency Response Team using the model specified in Section VI.J. of the Base Plan. In performing these calculations, onsite meteorological infomation will be obtained from Georgia Power Compay and utilized. If, for some reason, no onsite meteorological information is available, meteomlogical data will be obtained from the most readily available source specified in Section D.S. of this annex.

Prior to arrival of state personnel at the FEOC, the Georgia Power Compaq Plant Vogtle staff will provide the infomation in accordance with current Memorandian of Understanding. (See Section A.2. , page 3.)

(2) Protective Action Reconsnendations/ Orders (a) It will be the responsibility of the DNR-EPD Radiation

Emergency Coordinator to make appropriate protective
action recommendations to the senior GEMA representative (normally the Executive Director).

l (b) After receipt of protective action recommendations from the DNR-EPD Radiation Emergency Coordinator, the senior GEMA representative my (in coordination with Burke County official s) reconsnend appropriate protective action for the affected public. If the situation warrants, the senior GEMA representative my reconsnend l 4 I

to the Director of the eorgia Emergency Management Agency that the Goverr of Georgia declare that a state

! of emergency exists. .$on the declaration by the Governor that a state of> emergency exists, evacuation or '

other necessary actions to protect the public may be i directed by the Director of the Georgia Emergency l

Management Agency on behalf of the Governor.

i (3) Control The control of field monitoring activities, including i dispatch of field teams, receipt of field monitoring data, i receipt of laboratory data, and analysis of field monitoring j data will be coordinated at the FE0C. Standard Georgia Power a Company 10-mile and 50-mile EPZ : naps will be used at the FE0C to record field monitoring data, in addition to the use of i data recording foms. These maps, in addition to Georgia DOT j

county maps, will be used to dispatch and control field i teams, and will be available to field teams, t

f e. Correlation of Dose Projections and Actual Dose Measurements (See  :

Section VI. 6 of the Base Plan

, As an incident pmgresses, the Radiation Emergency Coordinator will evaluate the need for correlation of dose projections and 1

actual dose measurements. As soon as field measurements are made i they can be conpared with " projected" values, but only after j sufficient data is gathered will a decision be made as to whether correlation or scaling f actors should be developed for use in the i - emergency dose projections. Population dose estimates will be

performed periodically in accordance with the methodology outlined
in NUREG-0558 " Population Dose and Health Inpacts of the Accident at the Three Mile Island Nuclear Station". Population dose

, estimates will be made using release rate and meteorological data for the period of release,. and data from GPC, DD and NRC themoluminescent dosimeters (TLD's), as well as DOE aerial 3

measurements as such data becomes available. It is anticipated that much of this activity will be coordinated at the Federal

Radiological Monitoring and Assessment Center (FRMAC), in accordance with the FRERP. i
f. Emergency Connunications - Radiological Teams The primary radiological tean referenced in Paragraph d. above will be equipped with portable radio communication equipment and  ;

vehicular mounted radios. If additional rad. teams are assembled l

in order to cope with the situation, these teams may be equipped l

with portable radio equipment to the extent such is available. l i

GEMA will coordinate acquisition of such resources if needed. In i all cases and in situations where portable radio communications '

are unavailable, commercial telephone numbers for the EOC will be given to the respective team captains. ,

g. Characteristi of Surmunding Area (1) Maps /EvhJation Routes The map provided as Figure E'.1. shows the major road network about the facility. These major roads are expected to be the major evacuation routes during major radiological emergency.

Details of evacuation plans are delineated in the local plans in Section I. of this annex. The map also shows the population centers about the facility. Primary means of 1

evacuation will be by private automobile.

2 (2) Evacuation Iigediments There are no significant obstacles to impede the flow of traffic on designated evacuation routes. The principal routes designated for evacuation are county and state i highways in the vicinity of the facility and are designed in such a manner that at least 550 vehicles per hour per lane .

I could be accommodated in evacuation conditions where weather and darkness were not factors.* Under nighttime and poor weather conditions this rate of evacuation could be reduced up to thirty (30) percent.** The climatology of the area is such that severe weather phenomena, i.e., snow, icing, hurricane, tornado, flooding, is infrequent. All major evacuation tvutes are above the flood plain of the Savannah River. Should an impediment to an evacuation ruute be created alternate routes will be designated by the State Emergency Coordinator / Director of GEMA af ter consultation 1

' with local officials, State Department of Transportation officials and representatives of the Department of Public Safety.

  • Based on a stu@ of the road system designated for evacuation routes.
    • This rate could be exceeded during severe weather conditions.

\

(c) Remain sheltered until otherwise instructed.

f

f. Land and Water Use Infomation (1) Land Use Land use about Plant Vogtle is primarily agricultural in l

nature. Generally speaking, the area within a 10 mile radius i

of the Plant is of a relatively low population density. The area adjacent to the Savannah River is swagy, generally inaccessible, and subject to periodic flooding. Agriculture I activities consist of raw crop production of commodities such l

as corn, soybeans, and small winter and summer grains. Maps l

showing detailed crop infomation are igracticable to provide due to constantly changing agriculture practices long and short term.

(2) Water Use The Savannah River is the principal waterway in the area.

j The river is used for navigation and recreation. Howe ve r, most water for drinking water purposes has origin fmm groundwater (i.e., wells) and not the river.

! During a radiological incident, a potential may exist for i

contamination of water msources, principally surf ace water resources. Downstream fmm the point of such a contaminated ,

release, users of the water resource could be affected. In  !

1 the event of a waterborne release the water so affected would )

I be sagled and analyzed for radionuclide content. Personnel l

available for water sample collections are: DNR/EPD  !

personnel, DNR/ Game and Fish personnel, and state and local civil defense personnel. Samples would be analyzed by either the EPD mobile laboratory or fixed laboratory. In a situation in which the samples exceeded the capacity of the EPD laboratories then contract radiological labs would be ,

j contacted. A listing of such contract labs are provided on  !

l page 50.

I In the event that the samples analyzed showed levels of radioactive materials above action points, then users of the i

water resources affected would be notified. A listing of known domestic and commercial water users downstream of the i r f acility is presented below. If actions were rt@ ired to stop water withdrawals, then contact with the known users would be made by EPD-Water Protection Branch; however, if the situation requires innediate action the Emergency Coordinator may elect to contact the known users listed below directly.

\ \

In the event that evacuation is necessary, the boundaries of the  !

j major thoroughfares. These roadblocks will be established by

' local emergency managment, local law enfortment and Department i

of Public Safety personnel. Radiological survey teams, as requested by state or local law enforement authorities, will be assigned to such roadblocks as required. These survey teams will  :

conduct necessary surveys of personnel and equipment leaving the t contmiled area. The survey team leader will be authorized by DNR to release or retain personnel and equipment on survey results. ,

b. Military Assistance to Safety and Traffic (MAST) f I In the event of an accident which requires imediate transport of l

a victim for a considerable distance the services of the MAST f acilities at Fort Jackson or Fort Stewart may be called upon.

j I 4. Training of Emergency Medical Technicians (EMTs) and Emergency Room Personnel As necessary, appropriate training for EMTs and hospital emergency room personnel will be.provided by the Department of Hunan Resources.

5. Radioprotective Drugs 4

l In the event of an accident which involves a sudden enviromental j release of large quantities of radionuclides, which might include a

~

number of the isotopes of radiciodine, it is considered appropriate that authorities be prepared to take effective measures to prevent or l

curtail markedly the accumulation of radioiodines by the thyroid gland of offsite radiation emergency workers.

l Since evacuation or sheltering is considered a more effective measure j for the general public, no dependence has been placed on distribution 4 of radioprotective drugs to the general public.

I a. Decision Process for Distribution of Radioprotective Drug If the release data received from the f acility indicates a potential for hazardous exposures to the thyroid, a recomendation to administer a radioprotective drug to all emergency workers entering the affected areas may be given. 1his recomendation L_ . . _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ - - _ _ - _ _ _ _ . _ - _ _ _ _ _ . _ _

af ter consultation and approval f mm the State Health Officer or
his designated p!gsician representative. GEMA, acting in behalf l

of the Governor, will assure that this directive is cmmunicated  ;

to all state and lor.al agencies involved.
b. Distribution of Radioprotective Drug i In the event of an incident at a fixed nuclear f acility which l

warrants offsite monitoring or other emeryency dutles, all state

emergency workers, prior to entering the area of possible exposure, would report to the FEOC in Burke County for receipt of j the radioprotective drug.

i 6. Medical Consultants L

} Arrangenents have been made for obtaining medical consultative advice

{ during radiological amergencies. The physicians listed in Table F-3

}

have agreed to provide assistance to the state during a radiological j emergency.

7. Health System Resources in Contiguous States and Military Facilities 1

t

a. Contiguous States j Out-of-state medical f acilities and health systen resources would i not be sought or utilized unless all Georgia resources were
depleted or a particular resource did not exist in Georgia, but j j existed out-of-state. In the event out-of-state health systen and  !

medical f acility resources were needed, the Oak Ridge Associated Universities Medical Division, Oak Ridge Hospital of the Methodist Church in Oak Ridge, Tennessee would be contacted first (see i

procedure in Paragraph F.1.c. above). Hospital f acilities with j some capabilities exist in the major cities of neighboring states

(e.g., Birmingham, Alabama; Coltsnbia, South Carolina; Charleston, 3

South Carolina; Charlotte, North Carolina) . Request from supporting states would be made in accortlance with the Southern i Mutual Radiation Assistance Pact (SMLAP); however, initial contact i

and technical discussions of health and safety needs would be

discussed with the appropriate State Radiological lealth Director
prior to initiating a request for assistance under SMRAP. A i directory containing the names and phone numbers of adjacent State Radiological Health Directors is provided:

b. Military Facilities As a rule, medical and health system resource support from l military facilities would not be requested or utilized unless Georgia msources were depleted or unless a particular expertise  ;

existed at a particular military facility that did not exist  ;

elsewhere in Georgia. The radiological capabilities at military facilities in Georgia vary greatly. In the event sipport was needed from a military facility located in Georgia, the State Medical Officer or his designee would act on behalf of the Governor to request assistance from various military facilities.

Initial contact with military authorities would normally be through either the installation connander, installation duty officer, or installation medical officer.

! Burke County Plan Page 1 BURKE COUNTY EERGENCY MANAGEMENT AGENCY RADIOLOGICAL EERGENCY PLAN FOR NUCLEAR IEIDENTS

I. INTRODUCTION The Burke County Radiological Emergency Plan has been developed to provide msponsibility, concept of operations and direction and contml for a coordinated response to an emergency situation occurring fmm a nuclear incident at the Vogtle Electric Generating Plant. The plant is located on the southwestern bank of the Savannah River in Burke County and is approximately fifteen miles north-northeast of Waynesboro. The small township of Girard is approximately seven miles south with the nearest population center being the City of Sardis about twelve miles to the south.

The possibility of a nuclear incident occurring that would release i radioactive material outside the plant site and present a health hazard is extremely remote and highly unlikely; however, the possibility

! exists. In the event such an incident should occur, the release of radioactive materials could constitute a health hazard for a radius up to fifty miles from the plant site. All persons living within the ten mile radius known as the Plume Exposure Pathway Emergency Planning Zone (EPZ) adjacent to the plant may have to be evacuated to a safe area and the intake of food and water my be restricted within the entire fifty mile area. This plan is applicable to a nuclear incident occurring at i Plant Vogtle that affects the portion of Burke County adjacent to the plant and extending ten miles outward. This area of the county is depicted on the map in Attachnent D. For ease of operations and to facilitate accountability during evacuation, the P1tane Exposure Pathway Emergency Planning Zone (EPZ) in Burke County has been divided into eleven zones, with each zone lettered and having readily identifiable geographical boundaries. In the event an incident occurs at the plant, evacuation or restrictive measures will be directed only for the population living in the zoner within the affected area. Zone

boundaries and population distribution for each sector are listed in l Table D-1 of Attachnent D.

4 i This plan establishes a course of action for key local governmental authorities to exercise direction and contml to evacuate the residents t fmm the affected area to a place of safety and/or initiate action to j provide in-place pmtectiori. In the event of evacuation, the evacuees will move along designated road nets leading to the Reception Center at

< the Burke County Comprehensive High School located on Perimeter Road in Waynesbom. At the Reception Center, all evacuees will be monitored and decontaninated if necessary, registered, and provided shelter, health and social service care within the shelter area of the high school.

State of Gtorgia REP Plan Burke County Plan .

Page 2 II. PURPOSE This plan is designed to provide effective response for the orderly evacuation of the population in Burke County living within the ten mile radius adjacent to the Vogtle Electric Generating Plant. It has been developed upon the premise that upon notification that a nuclear incident has occurred, portions of, or perhaps, the entire area may have to be evacuated as quickly as possible, and/or other protective action such as in-place sheltering initiated. The plan establishes a system for the expeditious movement of people from the area of danger to a place of safety with ministan confusion and hardship to the evacuees.

The plan outlines the activities and functions of city and county officials, departments / agencies heads and personnel and other agencies involved in support of this plan. The emergency actions outlined in the plan can be implemented quickly upon proper notification that a nuclear incident has occurred at the Vogtle Electric Generating Plant.

- REP Plan Burke County Plan Page 41 ATTACHENT C' AFFECTED AREA A. In the event that a major incident should occur at the Vogtle Electric.

Gcnerating Plant, it is envisioned that an area ten miles in radius from the plant site could possibly be affected. This area is known as the Plume Exposure Pathway Emergency Planning Zone (EPZ). Weather and wind conditions will play a major role in the direction, distance and lateral spread that a plume may extend when drifting from the plant site.

Normally the lateral pattern will spread wider as the down wind movement increases.

The total area of the Plume Exposure Pathway EPZ that extends into Burke County has been divided into zor.es having readily identifiable boundaries (highways, roads, rivers). Each zone is identified with a letter system.

Protective action measures (sheltering or evacuation) will be based on this zone scheme, and will be transmitted to local authorities and the general public accordingly. Radiation protection operations can readily j detennine which zones are affected by an incident at the plant, thus  ;

i providing reliable information and instructions to the population living i l in the affected area. Evacuation and/or restrictions would normally be ,

directed only within the boundaries of the zones determined to be affected by the incident.

B. The portion of Burke County that is in the Plume Exposure Pathway EPZ is depicted on Map 1, page 42. There are eleven zones located in the county. The approximate two mile radius around the plant that extends into Burke County is included in Zone A. Zones B-5 through F-5 include the approximate two to five mile radius and Zones B-10 through F-10 include the approximate five to ten mile radius. Geographical boundaries of each zone are listed in Table D-1, page 43.

The Plume Exposure Pathway EPZ consists primarily of a rural f arming area with no cor.centrated population centers, recreational areas (except fishing and hunting sites near and along the Savannah River), hotels or tourist centers. Most of the traffic on the road nets within the area is local residents and Plant Vogtle personnel. Georgia Highway 23 is the major roadway through the area and is located beyond the five mile I radius. Girard Elementary School is the only institution within the EPZ and a total of 18 commercial establishnents (convenience stores) are scattered throughout the area. The Dixie Land Motel (mobile home type arrangement with 35 rooms and capacity for 70 persons) is near the plant site. Motel management advises that most of the tenants are involved in activities at Plant Vogtle. Over 1,000 mobile homes are in the area and house members of the general population and/or workers at the Plant.

Population studies indicate that transient population is minimal within the area. Population distribution for general public, transient I population, Plant Vogtle site work force and Girard Elementary School are listed in Table D-2, page 45.

  • Population count in the Plume Exposure Pathway EPZ within Burke County is under continuous review by officials from Georgia Power Company as well as local authorities.

TRANSIENT POPULATION The transient population segment includes persons in the work force at Plant Vogtle and sportsmer, at recreational areas. Since members of the plant work 7

force are included below, the only significant transient population within the Plume Exposure Pathway EPZ portion of Burke County includes the hunters and fishemen in the nearby wooded areas and along the banks of the Savannah River. Most of this activity is near the four public and private landings identified on Map 2, page Sr7. The roads that lead to the landings are the only means for access to the river due to existence of massive swamp areas elsewhere. Other transients include an insignificant number of fam and forestry workers and motorists who may be in the area.

EVACUATION AND SHELTERING A. Evacuation routes, traffic control points, boat landing areas on river, reception center, hospital and EOC locations are depicted on Map 2. Table H-1 further expands the evacuation routes and Table H-2 provides vehicle totals and evacuation time estimates. The selected evacuation routes are

}

adequate to move the population from any part of or entire Plume Exposure Pathway EPZ, and channel the evacuees to the Reception Center at the Burke i County Comprehensive High School located on Perimeter Road in Waynesboro, t Georgia Highways 24 and 56 serve as main routes with Highway 24 channeling evacuees northwest to Perimeter Road and Highway 56 channeling evacuees 4 southwest to Perimeter Road. Movement of evacuees along the predetemined routes could be affected by one or more of the following factors related to the incident at the nuclear power plant:

1. A General Emergency resulting in a major release which affects a large area could dictate rerouting the evacuation traffic.

1 2. A light wind causing the plume containing radioactive materials to drift slowly over all or a portion of an evacuation route would

~

require rerouting the evacuation traffic.

3. A temperature inversion, i.e., a reversal of the normal atmospheric temperature gradient, causing released radioactive materials to remain j near the ground surf ace could result in rerouting of the evacuation i traffic.

There are no physical barriers to the movement of evacuation traffic within the Plume Exposure Pathway EPZ. Adequate traffic control points,

! road blocks and route markers will be manned and set up to keep the i

traffic (mferenceflowTable moving H-1.)out The ofprincipalthe affected routesarea haveand deny access the capacity into area to carry

approximately 550 vehicles per lane per hour in one direction at a safe,

! constant flow where weather and darkness are not factors. Under nighttime l and poor weather conditions this rate of traffic flow could be reduced up

to thirty (30) percent. (The vehicle rate and percentage mduction art i based on a study of the road system designated for evacuation routes.

i Reference Annex D Section E., paragraph 1.g., page 21.)

In the event an incident should occur at Plant Vogtle that would require evacuation approximately 95 percent of the total plant work force would be mleased and processed to move to their homes and/or evacuated to the Reception Center in Waynesboro. Plant personnel and employees that mAy be l

released to go home will move along designated evacuation routes leading 1 to the Reception Center in Waynesboro if a release has occurred and their j homes are in the affected area. If their homes are outside of the affected area, they will move along designated routes that will clear them to routes laading to their homes, or to the Reception Center if a mlease has occurred.

l I

State of Georgia -

REP Plan Burke County Plan Page 55 B. Actual and/or projected releases of r soactive material from the Plant Vogtle f acility in cortjunction with meteorological conditions and/or field sanples will be the basis for detemining which zones to evacuate (see Map 1, page 42).

1 C. Privately owned vehicles will be the primary mode of transportation if evacuation is directed. County school buses, traveling their regular routes will provide transportation to those individuals lacking personal transportation. Special equipped vehicles will be dispatched directly to the homes of handicapped and/or non-abulatory individuals requiring special transportation means. A roster of these individuals is maintained in the Burke County E0C and the EMA Director maintains coortiination with the Burke County Health Department and Burke County Department of Family and Children Services on maintenance of the roster and use of their energency service vans.

There are no institutional f acilities within the Plume Exposure Pathway EPZ, with the exception of the Girard Elementary School, that will require special consideration in an evacuation. School buses which transport students remain on the school grounds during the day. In the event an evacuation becomes necessary, students at the school will be transported directly to the reception center (see Map 2). Infomational brochures prepared jointly by the utility and the county will infonn parents of these children not to pick them up at the school if evacuation is implemented. Parents will meet their children at the reception center.

D. Evacuation Confimation Process detemines whether the evacuation has been c omp leted. Specifically, confimation of the evacuation is perfomed to assure that the entire population has left the affected area, and to assist those persons having difficulties in evacuating.

Evacuation confimation will be acconplished by Burke County Emergency Management Agency personnel and law enfortement agency personnel that will traverse roadways throughout the affected area to insure that the residential population has evacuated their homes. Personnel f rom Burke County EMA and Georgia Department of Natural Resources, Law Enforcement l

Section, will move along the Savannah River and tributaries in boats to insure that hunters and fisherinen have evacuated the area. Additional assistance is available f rom other state agencies, i.e., Georgia Forestry Commission and Department of Transportation (reference Attachnent G).

Officials f rom Plant Vogtle will advise Burke County E0C when evacuation is confirined at the plant site.

E. Sheltering of the population residing in an affected area within the Plume Exposure Pathway EPZ will be based upon existing conditions and recommendations f rom officials at Plant Vogtle, Georgia Emergency Management Agency and Department of Natural Resourtes Envirorrnental '

Protection Division and:

j 1. May be desirable within at least two miles of Plant Vogtle if a Site Area Emergency is declared.

l i

State of Georgia l REP Plan Burke County Plan Page 56

. Should be mcommended for area withis two miles of plant site boundary and five miles dounwind when a General Emergency is declared and i evacuation has not been recommended at time.

3. Will be necessary when evacuation of affected area cannot be accouplished in ample time due to:
a. Sudden airt>orne miease of radioactive materials during an incident at Plant Vogtle that covers a large area.
b. Projected whole body and/or thyroid doses would exceed Protective Action Guides (PAGs) before evacuation could be completed.
4. The population within affected avta will be provided guidance on what to do if sheltering or evacuation is directed (reference Attachment J, Sections F.9.-F.10. , pages 64-66).

F. Evacuation planning measures and protection afforded by sheltering are addressed in the Base Plan,Section VI.G., paragraphs 8-10, pages 53-59.

Further references are in Annex D. Section E., paragraphs 2.d. and 2.e. ,

TABLE H-2 EPZ VEHICLE TOTALS Vehicle totals are included for all population groups. Totals for permanent residential population are based on three persons per household traveling in one vehicle, while the transient population and Plant Vogtle work force vehicle totals are based on one person per vehicle. Approximately 95 percent of the work force would evacuate the plant site in event of a severe incident at the plant.

Vehicle Totals Zone Residential _ Population Transi_ent __P_opulation _ Vogtle Work Force 0-2 miles 51 7 0 4,940*

0-5 miles 1,092 100 0 5-10 miles 1,387 100 0 0-10 miles 2,479 200 4,940 Resident Population (2,479) 3 persons per vehicle - 827 Transient Population (200) 1 person per vehicle - 200

  • Work Force, Weekday (95% of 5,200) I person per vehicle - 4,940
  • Work Force, Weeknight (95% of 972) 1 person per vehicle - 923
  • work Force, Weekend (95% of 2,195) 1 person per vehicle - 2,085 EVACUATION TIME ESTIMATE

SUMMARY

Time estimates include movement of the entire residential and transient population plus approximately 95 percent of the plant work force. Estimates include both f air and adverse weather conditions during weekday, weeknight and weekend time frames. Severe weather conditions, i.'e. , snowstom, winter freeze, heavy rains, could increase time estimates by 30 percent.

Time estimates will vary among the population groups evacuating the area. The transient group, including hunters and fishermen, will require a longer evacuation time period due to time involved in notifying the personnel and movement to their vehicles. All estimates include time periods for response after notification and travel time required to move out of affected areas. An

average preparation time of 30 minutes is included for the residential population and Plant Vogtle work force. Estimates for the transient population include 15 to 60 minutes to receive notification and 15 to 60 minutes required for personnel to reach their vehicles and be ready to evacuate area.

The evacuation time estimates listed reflect the entire 0-2 mile, 0-5 mile and 0-10 mile radius within the Plume Exposure Pathway EPZ. There will be little difference in estimates if each radius should be evacuated and/or designated i

l zones within each radius be evacuated.

It is anticipated that many of the individuals and families that are evacuated

! will move into the homes of friends and relatives after they have been processed at the Reception Center. Regardless of where evacuees are eventually lodged, it is imperative that all evacuees report to the Reception Center for:

1. Sentening for contamination and radiation exposure.
2. Decontamination, if necessary.
3. Registration and accountability.
4. Emergency infomation and instructions.
5. Assignment to lodging space, if requested.

The f acilities designated for Reception and Care Services provide the following accommodations:

1. Facilities designated as Reception Centers have adequate shower space (gymnasiums) for personnel decontamination.
2. Each facility has kitchen and dining areas suitable to prepare food

, and feed the housed personnel.

! 6. See the Base Plan,Section VII.B.; and the Plant Vogtle Plan, Annex D, I Section T, for additional training pmgrams for the enhancement of l local emergency preparedness.

B. Exercises and Drills To ensure that county emergency prepandness is kept at a high level of readiness, periodic local exert:ises and drills will be conducted to test l plans and personnel and to identify av organizational or operational 4 l

deficiencies.  ;

1 l l At its conclusion, each exercise and drill will be critiqued by qualified observers. The observers mgy be drawn from state and federal agencies, as well as local sources, as appropriate to the nature and scope of the exercise or drill. When available, NRC and fem guidance for observers will be utilized where applicable to local exercises and drills.

i Procedures and guidelines will be established to assist in evaluating the i formal critique. The county Emergency Management Director or designated Planning Coordinator will be responsible for revising this plan to reflect the findings of the critique.

1. A full-scale radiation emergency exercise involving county, state and Plant Vogtle emergency organizations will be conducted prior to the issuance of an operating license. Thereafter, Plant Vogtle will conduct an exercise on an annual basis and Burke County Em at least one exercise every two years. A full-scale exert:ise involving state
participation will be held every six years.

The exercise scenario will be varied from year to year to assure that all components are tested at least once every five years. At least once every six years, an exercise my be conducted during the time period 6:00 p.m. and midnight and another one during the time period midnight and 6:00 a.m. Exercises should be conducted under various i

weather conditions with some unannounced.

2. Comunications drills between Burke County Em and GER will be i conducted monthly. Drills between the plant and Burke County Em will i

be held at least once a year.

3. Medical emergency drills will normally be held annually. A scenario will be developed which is unique to each drill and will simulate i

4. Scenarios for exercises and drills will be developed locally and in

, cooperation with plant officials and state agencies. Each scenario will address the following elements:

- Basic objectives and appropriate evaluation criteria.

- Date, time period, place and participating organizations.

- Simulated events.

J - Time schedules of real and simulated initiating events.

- Narrative sissnary describing the conduct of the drill or exercise.

- Participation of qualified observers.

Each scenario will cont'ain timed messages and actions scripted in a

, real time sequence to simulate events as they would unfold in an

actual emergency. The exercise and drill scripts will address, as

! appropriate, simulated casualties; fire, police, rescue and other 1 support personnel; use of specialized equipment; radiological 1

monitoring teams; communications; and public information (see the

Georgia Power Compary Plant Vogtle Plan, Voltane 1, Section N.,

Exercises and Drills). The EMA Director will coordinate with Georgia j Emergency Management Agency on use of state and federal agencies as observers or evaluators. GEMA will provide advance notification to federal agencies if they become involved.

C. Checklists To enhance the training program and further insure emergency operational readiness, checklists have been prepared for local officials and

. department / agency personnel. Each checklist has been developed to i correspond with the Emergency Action Level guidelines in reference to an incident at the nuclear power plant.
