APPLICANTS' MOTION FOR VACATION OF STAY Now come the Applicants and say as follows:

1. On November 20, 1986, the Appeal Board in this proceeding issued a decision in which it held, inter alia, that it was not a prerequisite to the issuance of a license to load fuel and perform precriticality testing that an emergency plan for that portion of the Seabrook Station Planning Emergency Zone (EPZ) which lay within the Commonwealth of Massachusetts be filed.

Public Service Comoany of New Hampshire (Seabrook Station, Units 1 and 2), ALAB-853, 24 NRC 711 (1986).

2. On January 9, 1987, this Commission issued an order stating its decision to review, sua sconte this aspect of ALAB-853, and staying the Director of Nuclear Reactor Regulation (NRR) from authorizing low power operations at the Seabrook facility l until completion of the review undertaken by the Commission.

3. On April 9, 1987, this Commission issued a Memorandum and order in which it reversed the decision of the Appeal Board in ALAB-853. Public Service Comoany of New Hamoshire (Seabrook Station, Units 1 and 2), CLI-87-02, 25 NRC (April 9, 1987).
4. In CLI-87-02, this Commission also stated that it would thereafter address a suaaestion of Mootness and Recuest for vacation of Stay which had been filed by the Applicants on the eve of the issuance of CLI-87-02. The suggestion and request were predicated upon the fact that the Applicants had recently filed an emergency plan for that portion of the Seabrook Emergency Planning Zone which lies within the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. This plan was not a plan developed by the Applicants, but was, rather, an emergency plan which had been drafted by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts prior to the time that the Governor of the Commonwealth made the decision to refuse to participate, or permit the Commonwealth to participate, in the emergency planning process for Seabrook Station.1 It was the position of the Applicants that this document, concededly not a

-true " utility" plan, did serve to meet the requirement laid down i in CLI-87-02 that a demonstration be made that " adequate emergency planning is at least in the realm of the possible." l CLI-87-02 at 7.

5. On June 11, 1987 this Commission issued a Memorandum and 1 In a correct characterization of the plan, this Commission stated: "[t]here appears to be no dispute that PSNH's independent contribution to-the plan that it submitted was solely a new cover page." Public Service Company of New Hampshire (Seabrook Station, Units 1 and 2), CLI 87-03, 25 NRC (June 11, 1987).

6. In CLI-87-03 this Commission stated that CLI-87-02 had imposed two requirements which must be met prior to the issuance of a license authorizing low power operation for Seabrook. These two requirements are:

"(1) PSNH [the lead applicant] was to file a bona fide utility plan, and (2) must demonstrate on summary review that adequate emergency planning is 'at least in the realm of the possible.'" CLI-87-03 at 5.

This Commission further described a " bona fide utility plan" as "one that provides measures to be taken by the utility to compensate for the absence of governmental participation in emergency planning," id., and thus " reflects the utility's compensatory measures and efforts to facilitate the state's participation in the event of an emergency," id. at 7 n.7. In addition, this Commission observed that "[a]n adequate filing in 2 In the earlier decision, CLI-87-02, this Commission stated that it had decided to leave the outstanding fuel loading and precriticality testing license in effect, inter alia, "because there is no safety benefit to be derived from removing the fuel."

CLI-87-02 at 3. In CLI-87-03 this Commission likewise declined to disturb the outstanding fuel loading and precriticality license, and, indeed, acknowledged that activities authorized by that license could continue. CLI-87-03 at 1 ("[T]here can be no low power operation at Seabrook bevond fuel loadina and precriticality testina unless and until the Applicants file a l

bona fide utility offsite emergency plan. . . . "(Emphasis i supplied.)).

l 3

l this case would be one intended for actual implementation as a utility emergency plan, and one intended to be subjected to Staff l l

and FEMA review and litigation on that basis." Id. at 6. The j Commission noted that there was no evidence that such intent existed with respect to the plan then filed; in particular, because there had been no request for review or suggestion that

)

litigation on the plan commence. CLI-87-02 at 8. l

7. As seen in paragraph 6 above, a total of four requirements must be met in order to establish that a utility emergency plan is bona fida. These requirements are:
1. It must describe measures to be taken by the utility to compensate for the absence of governmental participation in emergency planning. -
2. It must reflect the utility's efforts to facilitate the state's participation in the event of an emergency.
3. It must be a plan intended for actual implementation as a utility emergency plan.
4. It must be a plan intended to be subjected to Staff and FEMA review and litigation. (Evidence of such intent being a request for Staff and FEMA review and a suggestion that litigation be commenced).
8. Under a letter dated September 18, 1987 (" Letter"), the Applicants have submitted to the Staff and caused to be served upon all parties to this proceeding a comprehensive utility emergency plan entitled "Seabrook Plan for Massachusetts Communities" (SPMC). A copy of the Letter is attached hereto and marked "A." It is to be noted that the letter recites that the SPMC is submitted pursuant to 10 CFR 59 50.30, 50.33, 50. 47 (c) (1) 4 l

for NRC and FEMA review. Letter at 1,3.3 In addition, there is attached hereto and marked "B" a motion which has been filed with the cognizant Licensing Board this date seeking the establishment of a schedule for the' litigation of the plan.

9. The SPMC compensates for the lack of planning by thp Commonwealth of Massachusetts by:

"(1) added plans and procedures providing compensating actions; (2) early contacts and close communications with Massachusetts State and local Government emergency response infrastructures and organizations to overcome the potential for delay from the lack of governmental preplanning; (3) added personnel specifically to accompany, advise, and directly provide resources to State and local offic'ials in an actual emergency; (4) added

  • personnel to provide protective actioh support that otherwise would have been provided through State and local governmental preplanning; (5) formalized agreements providing facilities, equipment, and supporting services that otherwise would have been provided through State and Local government preplanning; and (6) early, close, and continuing communications with members of the public in the EPZ to ensure that they are kept informed of the status and provisions for response." Letter at 1-2.

Furthermore the SPMC, "does not rely on previously-developed state and local government resources." Id. at 2. As set forth in Attachment 1 to the letter, the Applicants' have purchased or contracted for more than enough resources to carry out 3 As noted in the Letter, Letter at 3,the SPMC is being filed in redacted form in order to protect individuals and organizations supporting the plan as well as certain members of the general public. To the extent that a showing is made that l disclosure of the redacted information is necessary to facilitate f review or lit 5gation of the SPMC, Applicants stand ready to i facilitate such disclosure under appropriate protective orders.

compensatory actions contemplated by the SPMC and have recruited almost twice the number of necessary personnel. Id., Attach. 1.

10. In order to facilit -ce the participation of the Commonwealth in an act'ual emergency, "the plan was developed to be consistent with the Commonwealth of Massachusetts Radiological Emergency Response Plan used for the operating nuclear power plants located in, or within 10 miles of, the Commonwealth's boundaries. . . .

_ Letter at 2. In addition SPMC sets out the training programs for the emergency workars with responsibilities under.the plan; indeed, classroom training has already commenced.

Id. -

11. In the Letter it is acknowledged that there are five areas wherein the SPMC is not complete. Letter at 3-4. These are:
1. The ingestion pathway data needs to be verified and updated due to the passage of time since its original compilation in connection with the Massachusetts Radiological Emergency Response Plan.
2. A Letter of Agreement has yet to be obtained from the Department of Interior.
3. Route maps must be developed for travel from reception centers to congregate care centers.
4. Detailed internal facility plans for individual schools, hospitals and other special facilities must be developed.

5. Alternate prompt notification methodologies must be developed for one Massachusetts community which has elected to tear down sirens owned by it which were contemplated to be part of the prompt notification, system.4 The first three of the above listed items are fairly straight forward matters capable of verification against objective criteria by the Staff when-completed. A good start on the individual facility plans exists in thu form of plans drafted in connection with the Commonwealth's own aborted emergency planning exercise. Furthermore, as stated in the Letter:

"The [SPMC] already includes the necessary information flow, coordination, assignment of resources and actions needed to evacuate if ,

no other facility planning arranger,0nts have been made. This includes letters of agreement for buses, ambulances, vans and host facilities. Should the special facilities not cooperate in the planning effort, the NHY Offsite Response organization, through the actions of the School Liaisons and Special Population Liaisons, can successfully implement an evacuation effort. Because this capability exists in the Seabrook Plan for Massachusetts Communities, there is not a pressing need for explicit facility plans at this time, and these plans will be submitted prior to the graded exercise." Letter at 3.

In addition, as noted in the letter, none of these first four 4 The community is the City of Newburyport. The siren system there was, for the most part, developed prior to the need for the system as part of the Seabrook warning system. Rather its development was accomplished in response to a need for an emergency warning system in the Town fo.' natural disasters. It is our hope that this current attitude will not ultimately prevail in the venerable city, but, as of this time, it must be assumed that these sirens will be unavailable. As noted in the text, there are technical fixes for this problem available, and the Applicants are confident that they can put in effect an appropriate one.

l items will require additional personnel, facilities or equipment nor will they impact the training now ongoing. Letter at 3.

With respect to the sirens, there are technical fixes available.

Id.

12. It has never been the law that an emergency'rplan, when filed for review or even when placed in actual litigntion, had to be complete in every detail. See, e.a., Philadelphia Electric Co. (Limerick Generating Station, Units 1 and 2), ALAB-808, 21 l

NRC 1595, 1601 (1985) ("The plan need not be final, just

{

sufficiently developed to provide reasonable assurance that adequate protective measures can and will be taken in an emergency.");

Louisiana Power and Licht Co. (Waterford Steam Electric Station, Unit 3). ALAB-732, 17 NRC 1076, 1103-04 (1983).

It is respectfully submitted that the SPMC more than satisfies the necessary degree of completeness required under the cited decisions, and thus satisfies the concept that the submittal should not be: "anything less than would be required of any submittal of materials supporting a license application under the regulations." CLI-87-03 at 6.

13. In short, in light of the information set forth in paragraphs 8 - 12 above, it is apparent that all of the criteria for a bona fide utility plan as set out in CLI-87-03 (and summarized in paragraph 7 hereof) are satisfied.
14. The other requirement imposed by CLI-87-03 (and CLI 02) is that a summary review of the plan must demonstrate that adequate emergency planning is "at least in the realm of.the 8

possible." CLI-87-03 AT 5. We respectfully submit that a summary review of the SPMC can result in no other conclusion.

The procedures developed, resources purchased or contracted for, the number of individu'als pledged to serve, the consistency with the in-place Massachusetts Radiological Emergency Response Plan all added to the concept of " realism," Lona Island Liahtina Co.

(Shoreham Nuclear Power Station, Unit 1) CLI-86-13, 24 NRC 22 (1986), lead to the ineluctable conclusion that adequate emergency planning for the Massachusetts portion of the Seabrook EPZ is "at least in the realm of the possible."

WHEREFORE the Applicants move the Commission to vacate the -

stay entered in its order of January 9, 1987 prohibiting the Director of Nuclear Reactor Regulation from authorizing low power operations at the Seabrook facility.

G. S. Thomas to Document Control Desk Subj e ct : Seabrook Plan for Massachusetts Communities

Dear Sir:

In recent discussions with the NRC Staf f (i.e. , meetings of July 30 and September 16, 1987), New Hampshire Yankee (NRY) has stated that a comprehensive utility plan would be submitted for that portion of the Seabrook Station Emergency Planning Zone (EPZ) within the Commons:ealth of Massachusetts.

2nclosed please find nine (9) copies of this utility plan, entitled "Seabrook Plan for Massachusetts Communities", which consists of ten (10) volumes of material. The enclosed Plan supersedes that previously submitted via Reference (b) and is being submitted for NRC Staff and FEMA review pursuant to 10CFR50.33(g) and 10CFR50.47(c)(1).

This Plan was developed in recognition of, and to compensate for, the fact that the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and the local Massachusetts municipalities located within the plume exposure pathway emergency planning zone for Seabrook Station are not currently participating in emergency planning. The compensatory actions which are delineated in the enclosed Plan can range from supporting requests for augmented personnel and resources to perf orming emergency response actions or implementing the total response in place of State and local organizations. The Plan provides a number of features, including (1) added plans and procedures providing compensating actions; (2) early contacts and close communications with Massachusetts State 1 and local government emergency response inf restructures and organizations to overcome the potential for delay from the lack of governmental preplanning; (3) added personnel specifically to accompany, advise, and directly provide resources to State and local of ficials in an actual emergency; (4) added personnel to provide protective action support that otherwise would have been provided through State and local governmental preplanning; (5) formalized o ,_ 5\

mm - --- - _ ______ - __~ _-_----

United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission September 18, 1987 Attention: Document Control Desk Page 2 agreements providing facilities, equipment, and supporting services that otherwise would have been provided through State and local government planning; and (6) early, close, and continuing communications with members of the public in the EPZ to ensure that they are kept informed of the status and provisions for response. The plan is intended to be implemented by NHY's Of fsite Response Organization and does not rely on previously-developed State and local government resources. The extent to which NHY has developed the required

. personnel and resources to implement this plan is detailed in Attachment 1 provided herewith. It is NHY's intention to continue developing and obtaining resources in excess of plan requirements to assure the capability to implerant the plan under all circumstances.

In addition to identifying personnel and resources, the Plan describes the training program for offsite organization members to implement its concept of operations. The experience and qualifications of each NHY Offsite Response Organization' member was considered in placing an individual within the response -

organization. This consideration of an individual's experience and qualification during the response organization placement process supports the training program and plan implementation. As recently discussed with the NRC Staff, classroom training began on September 14 and is expected to be completed in October. Folicwing this classroom training, NHY will initiate a program of drills and exercises supplemented as needed by additional classroom training.

All these training activities will culminate in a graded exercise which NHY expects to hold in the Spring of 1988.

The enclosed Plan was developed to address the sixteen (16) planning standards of 10CFR50.47(b) and NUREG-0654/ FEMA REP-1 as well as other planning concerns such as integration of utility, state, local and federal government response and interfacing with contiguous states. To ensure a smooth integration of response, the Plan was developed to be consistent with the Commonwealth of Massachusetts Radiological Emergency Response Plan used for the operating nuclear power plants located in, or within 10 miles of, the Commonwealth's boundaries, and to be consistent with accepted principles of

~

emergency planning with regard to event classification, protective action guides, basis of protective action recommendations, EPZ access control, termination of protective action and recovery /re-entry. This Plan was also subjected to numerous technical reviews which were conducted independent of the planning organization.

An additional feature of the enclosed Plan is to coordinate emergency response efforts in Massachusetts with those in the State of New Hampshire.

To accomplish this, the NHY Of f site Response Organization maintains extensive communications links between its key emergency response facilities and personnel and those of the New Hampshire State Emergency Response Organization; and the procedures to implement this plan delineate steps for contacting and interf acing with the key New Hampshire personnel. This provides for coordination of such crucial emergency functions as accident and dose assessment, activating the prompt notification system and the Emergency Broadcast System, issuing news releases, implementing protective

1 United States Regulatory Commission September 18, 1987 Attention: Document Control Desk Page 3 actions, requesting Federal assistance, and focusing personnel and resources where most needed. The continuous exchange of information between the two organizations and the coordination of key emergency response actions ensures  !

that the health and safety of the citizens of both states are protected.

NHY, as recently discussed with the Staff, will be continuing planning efforts in a few areas following submittal of the enclosed Plan. These activities involve verifying and updating, as necessary, ingestion pathway data provided in the Plan, obtaining a Letter of Agreement from the Department of 1 the Interior, developing route maps for traveling from reception centers to j congregate care centers, and assisting in the development, as necessary, of j internal facility plans for schools, hospitals, and other special facilities.

It should be recognized that none of these items will require additional j personnel, facilities or equipment, nor will they impact any ongoing ~ training '

of emergency responders required to implement the concept of operations ,

described in the Plan.

The Letter of Agreement and production of route maps are straightforward activities and should be completed in the near future. The ingestion pathway data included in the plan was extracted from the information contained in the Radiological Emergency Response Plan for the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

This data base is being verified for completeness by NHY and will be updated where necessary.

5 The detailed plans for special facilities such as schools, nursing homes

'And hospitals were drafted as part of the original Commonwealth of Massachusetts planning efforts in 1985 and 1986. Coordination with these facilities is needed to update, revise and finalize these plans. These plans deal with the f acility's internal shelter and evacuation ef forts and may utilize their own existing resources. The enclosed Plan already includes the necessary information flow, coordination, assignment of resources and actions needed to evacuate if no other facility planning arrangements have been made.

This includes letters of agreement for buses , ambulances , vans and host facilities. Should the special facilities not cooperate in the planning effort, the NHY Offsite Response Organization, through the actions of the School Liaisons and Special Population Liaisons, can successfully implement an evacuation effort. Because this capability currently exists in the Seabrook Plan for Massachusetts Communities, there is not a pressing need for explicit facility plans at this time, and these plans will be submitted prior to the graded exercise.

We recently have been informed that a local Massachusetts' community has initiated the removcl of certain community-owned sirens whic' are part of the prompt notification system. These are the only community-o' ned sirens within the notification system for Seabrook Station. NHY is evaluating the impact of the communities' action and is in the process of developing suitable alternative provisions (e.g.; mobile sirens). NHY will advise the NRC of the action to be taken in response to this development.

United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission September 18, 1987 Attencion: Document Control Desk Page 4 Based on the foregoing and the Plan itself, NHY believes that the Seabrook Plan for the Massachusetts Communities fully compensates for the absence of governmental participation in emergency planning for Massachusetts. This Plan in combination with our commitment to provide the necessary personnel, training, resources, facilities and equipment provides a reasonable basis and framework by which the health and safety of the public will be protected.

Accordingly, NHY vill implement this Plan and herewith submits it, in accordance with 10CFR50.30, 50.33 and 50.47(c)(1), for NRC staff and FEMA review. NHY will, through its counsel, request the Atomic Safety and Licensing Board to establish a hearing schedule for the Plan and will also request the Commission to lift its stay on issuance of a low power license.

Finally it should be noted that the enclosed Plan contains redactions.

These redactions have been made to assure that there will not be any unwarranted invasion of personal privacy of individuals and organizations needed to implement the Plan and certain members of the general public.

One (1) copy of the enclosed redacted plan is being transmitted to each of the interested parties and to each member of the ASLB Panel. Subsequent distributions will be made to appropriate Massachusetts State and local governmental organizations.
