Dear Dr. Kranzdorf:
1 This is to acknowledge receipt of your letter of Novenber 4,1983 to the
- Chairsan of the U. S. Nuclear Remlatory Consnission and attachnents thereto, expressing concerns regarding a ' ack of public confidence in energency planning for the Diablo Canyon Nuclear Power Plant and ispediments to evacuation of elenents of the public in the event of a nuclear energency.
Thank you for the reasoned and docunented stateme.-t regarding your concerns.
They will serve as a basis for inquiry, hopefully leading to a sound evaluatien i and resolution of these concerns.
Please be advised that we have provided copies of your correspondence to the U. S. Federal Energency Managenent Agency (FEHA), which has a specific assignsent by Executive Order of the President to take the lead in offsite
' radiological emergency planning and response. We will work closely with FEMA, the State of California Office of Emergency Services, and cognizant local energency services elenents in evaluating and resolving your expressed concerns.

Chairman Nuclear Regulatory Commission 1717 M' 5treet Washington. D. C. 20555 3 gyg g gjgg3
Dear Chairman Palladino:
i According to an Associated Press story which appeared in the loca15an '-
Luis Obispo Telegram-Tribune of October 29, 1983, you and s om etime s critte Representative Richard Ottinger " agree on a crucial point: Public confidence is vital to a nuclear future." '
Specifically, you' are quoted as saying:
i i
Pubtle anxieties about nuclear operations are real, whether x l
well founded or not. . .The c6ntinued growth of n2 clear power ,
will ultimately depend on the confidence of the public and t utilities in the cost and safety of naclear power. (Attachrnent A)
Similarly, a story in the same newspaper ten days earlier began:
The best way to ensure against panic during a nuclear accident or other plans anodisaster know what is for topeople do. to have confidence in emergency -
. So says a Cat Poly psychologist (t,;harles M. Stem'] who has s tudied the is s ue. . .
Dr. Stem concluded:
I want a plan that's been tested and that the commu~nity memhcrs feel comfortabic with. At this point. the community hasn't come to accept that yet. ,
The challenge to the community at large is to continue to work h;C'D CH , ,,.- on the plan until the peopic are satisfied that it *(11 work. (Actachment B; P

Political Analysis (Pols 302) at California Polytechnic State University here in San Luis Obispo in conducting a random telephone survey on a number of subjects. On the subject of the Emergency Response Plan, N 68% of those agueried expressed either little or no confidence in the g et'.[
M Plan. If anything, I suspect that the numbers have become even more pl8' :
skawed since then. I am enclosing copies of every letter on the subject W/
which appeared in the Telegram-Tribune between October 19, 198 3 and
' the end of that month. (Xttachment C) ~Obviously letters are not neces-l sarily a reflection of community sentiment but at the very least it adds i another cautionary note to believing that there is community confidence j .
in the Plan.
1 wrny is confidence so low? Ihave chosen two stories which ran in the local newspaper during the last weak of October which may give you some insight into the concerns of the local community and why the Emergency Response Plan inspires so little confidence.
The first story, which ran on October 24, stated that because of the fog,
~~~ "[a] blown fuse on Cuesta Peak forced three radio stations and one tele-vision station off the air for 2-1/2 hours early this morning." (Atta'chment D) The incident occurred only four days after FEMA's third annual test of the Emergency Response Plan was reported to bp a success.
The test of course had been announced weeks in advance. In addition, the test took place on a lovely, clear morning. Under such circumstances.
apparently no major problems we,re encountered.
But, NUREG-0654, pages 61 and 63, states:
l 9. E.Sch State and local orgahization shalt establish a capability for implementing protective measures based upon protective action guides and other criteria. . . .

~
13 The organization's plans to implement protective measures .
for the plume exposure pathway shalt include:
I i 't. Projected traffic capaetties of evacuation routes under
- l emergency conditions. ..
- k. Identification of and means for dealing with potential impediments (e.g., seasonal impas sability of roads) to use of evacuation routes, and contingency measures.. .
l l
In the San Luis Obi'spo Emergency Rasponse Pian, " emergency conditiens" and " seasonal impassability of roads" is considered only in terme of heavy rain (Attachment E). In such a case, anywhere from 45 to'75 i minutes is added to the time necessary for evacuation. Page I. 5(7) l of the Plan does raention fog but only as follows:
[1TIiniedGIe'nts ti fvMjtl ]
...The most likely irnpediments to evacuation would be a heavy rain or fog which could reduce the roadway capsetties l- -:---. due to a de)rease (sic) in traffic density. The effect of these i
' conditions is shown in Table I. $-6 (Attachment E). The occurrence of a seasonal impediment such as rain or fog would be expected to require reroating of traffic although evacuation times may be extended. . .(Attachment F). -
At least three issues srise from these statements. h' irs t.

.i television stations being off the air for more than 1-1/2 hours and that the Emergency Response Plan is ill prepared to handle fog or other inclement conditions.
The second news story ran two days later. The lead paragraph read:
The state won't have money to replace Morfo Bay's Twin Bridges for at least three years, a state official said Tuesday.
Tb, story concluded by stating *" officials believe there is no hurry to do something about the situation." (Attachment G)
Let us . return to Attachme nt F, Impediment to Evacuation:
. ._ .. In recent years, flooding has closed roads for a number of hours at certain points . The " twin tientles" location on South Bay Boulevard between Los Osos and Murro Bay is known to flood under the combined condition of high tide and haavy rain...another closure occurred near the Los Os os Valley R oad interchange south of the town. Events such as these may delay use of au cvacuation route until the road is cienr.
thus extending the evacuation time in proport-ion to the lost capacity.
In fact, flooding at " twin bridges" or " twin trestles" is not an unus ual event.
sometimes occurring several times during each winter's storms : When this flooding happens the only route from Los Osos/ Baywood (hom'e for approximately 12,000 people) to Morro Bay is cut. Thus, the primary evacuation route away from the Nuclear Power Plant is closed. The only remaining rond to the outside is Los Osos Valley Road which leads in,to t the city of San Luis Obispo. San Lois O'21spo is the major population center in the Emergency Planning Zone. During an emergency situation, the influx of thousands of additional people traveling over this twu-tane road boggles the mind. Further, as the previous quote stated, Los Osos Valley Road itssif is subject ta flooding!!!
Chairman Palladino, in the interview cited at the beginning of this !ctter, you are said to believe that some issues are technical and bs s t icit to experte . . ." Based on continuing errors in fact and judgment, such as those mentioned in this 1stter, a mtjority of the pecple in thim communit. .
