dependent group, they are accounted for in establishment of 4
-access control torthe Plume Exposure EPZ.
Volume 1, Section 2.6 (Protective Response) states the following on page 2.6-16.
Before and during an evacuation, nonessential population is denied entry to the controlled area'.
At this time only the following personnel will'be allowed entry:
Residents with appropriate identification (e.g.,.
drivers licenses) returning to their homes to prepare to evacuate.
This provision will allow for parents to return home in order to pick up their children who may have arrived home as a result of normal (or early) school dismissal.
5.
Special arrangements have been planned for.the transport of students when school is in session.
Arrangements are described in Volume 1 (NHRERP Parts 1.0 through 7.0), Section 2.6 (pgs. 2.6-11 through 2.6-11b).
Transportation is a coordinated effort between the' State of New Hampshire and each town.
For example, Volume 31 (Town of South Hampton RERP) provides for school children in the following sections: ';
e 4
VOLUME 31, TOWN OF SOUTH HAMPTON RERP Evacuation of Schools a.
Section II.G b.
Section III.C.3 -
Transportation (Reference Section II.G)
Special. Facilities Plans -
c.
Appendix-F Barnard School 6.
Arrangements for transportation are also described in the following references, with emphasis on the role of the State of New Hampshire:
a.
Volume 1, Section 1.2 -
Pupil Transportation.
Safety Supervisor b.
Volume 1, Section 2.6 -
Protective Response (Evacuation, etc.)
EOC Resource Coordinator c.
Volume 4, Section '7 Procedure Director of Pupil d.
Volume 4B, Transportation Safety e.
Volume'5 Letter of Agreement (Index and selected LOAs) j l
7.
Revision 2 of the NHRERP, Volume 2 (Appendices),
contains in Appendix I (pg. I-3), a summary of transportation resource requirements for all 17 New Hampshire towns and any special facilities or institutions.
These numbers are being updated to reflect current requirements.
Presently a total of 515 buses are required, including all school buses, special needs buses and coach l
buses; approximately 36 ambulances are required.
J 8.
Volume 5 of the NHRERP contains letters of agreement with bus and ambulance companies, Teamsters Local No. 633 of New Hampshire, and individual transportation providers.
Together, these organizations should be able to provide %

n
~
i i
.d' transportation resources.in excess.of'the numbers required fin Appendix Into' Volume 2.
9.
Volumes 16 through 32 of the NHRERP comprise all of:
the 17 New Hampshire Town RERPs.
In Section IV of each.
plan, an attachment to the' procedure for the Transportation Coordinator (or equivalent responsible individual) provides the: individual town transportation requirements.
Included in each list is a category entitled "Public Schools" and/or 3
" Private, Day Care Schools", which identifies the number:of
- students.within this category and the number of buses / vans.
that have been allocated to meet their needs.
-These requirements are based on an annual determination of: maximum student enrollmer at the start of each school year _and the maximum licensed capacity of each day care center.
10.
In each case, the capacity of' buses allotted surpases the number of students that may require:
transportation assistance.
The totality of bus / van resources, on which the plans rely, is confirmed by letters
.l of agreement contained in Volume 5 of the NHRERP.
i 11.
It is my opinion that the local plans, in conjunction with the NHRERP, provides reasonable assurance that adequate arrangements exist for transportation of students of the Plume Exposure EPZ.
